AIXTRON SE To Be Included In TecDAX - Deutsche Börse Reviews Index Composition - Changes To Be Effective As Of 20 March 2017

On Friday, Deutsche Börse announced changes to its selection indices, which will become effective on 20 March 2017. The shares of AIXTRON SE will be included in the TecDAX index and will replace the shares of STRATEC Biomedical AG. The inclusion of AIXTRON SE is based on the fast entry rule; the company is eligible for the index inclusion due to its market capitalisation and order book turnover. For AIXTRON SE this is a return to TecDAX, the company left the index in December 2016 due to low market capitalisation.

The constituents of the indices DAX, MDAX and SDAX remain unchanged.

The next scheduled index review is 5 June 2017.

Please find enclosed an overview of all index changes attached. For further information please go to www.dax-indices.com.
