September 2016 pursuant to sec. 27a German Securities Trading Act (WpHG)
about the following:
1. The restructuring by way of merger of RW
Energie-Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG with and into RWEB GmbH was
made inter alia to align the shareholding structure with new tax

Energie-Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbh & Co. KG pursues strategic objectives
with the shareholding in RWE Aktiengesellschaft, Essen, not generating
trading profits.

administrative, management or supervisory bodies of RWE Aktiengesellschaft,
Essen.
4. No significant change in the capital structure of RWE Aktiengesellschaft
is intended, in particular as regards the ratio between own funds and
external funds and the previous dividend policy. A decision how RWEB GmbH
will position itself with respect to the recent proposals of the executive
board regarding amendments of the dividend policy cannot yet be made due to
recency.
5. As the shares in RWE Aktiengesellschaft, Essen, were acquired by way of
merger, there was no need to use external funds.
