This document contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current views about future events. The words “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “should” and similar expressions are used to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to many risks and uncertainties, including a lack of or a considerable delay in improvement or a further deterioration of global economic conditions; a continuation or worsening of the tense situation in the credit and financial markets, which could result in ongoing high borrowing costs or limit our funding flexibility; changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates; the introduction of competing, fuel-efficient products and the possible lack of acceptance of our products or services, which may limit our ability to adequately utilize our production capacities or raise prices; price increases in fuel, raw materials and precious metals; disruption of production due to shortages of materials, labor strikes, or supplier insolvencies; a further decline in resale prices of used vehicles; the effective implementation of cost-reduction and efficiency-optimization programs at all of our segments, including the repositioning of our truck activities in the NAFTA region and in Asia; the business outlook of companies in which we hold an equity interest, most notably EADS; changes in laws, regulations and government policies, particularly those relating to vehicle emissions, fuel economy and safety; the resolution of pending governmental investigations and the outcome of pending or threatened future legal proceedings; and other risks and uncertainties, some of which we describe under the heading “Risk Report” in Daimler’s most recent Annual Report and under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Legal Proceedings” in Daimler’s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If any of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or if the assumptions underlying any of our forward-looking statements prove incorrect, then our actual results may be materially different from those we express or imply by such statements.

Daimler pays settlement to former
AEG shareholders

· Final verdict by the Frankfurt Higher Regional Court lays down new share exchange ratio

Stuttgart — Following a final verdict reached on November 17, 2009 by the higher regional court in Frankfurt am Main, Daimler AG (stock-exchange abbreviation DAI) will increase the settlement and compensation to be made to the former AEG shareholders.

The domination and profit and loss transfer agreement between the former Daimler-Benz AG and AEG AG from the year 1988 specified an exchange ratio of 5 AEG shares for one old Daimler-Benz share. In its verdict of November 17, 2009, the court specified an appropriate ratio of 2.9 AEG shares for one old Daimler-Benz share.

The compensation for foregone AEG dividends foreseen in the domination and profit and loss transfer agreement will increase accordingly. Instead of compensation of 20 percent of the Daimler dividend per old AEG share, the higher regional court has determined that 34.5 percent of the Daimler dividend is appropriate.

From today’s perspective, the court’s verdict will result in a maximum obligation for Daimler to supply 4.3 million Daimler shares and a maximum amount of 150 million euros in cash for dividends and

compensation payments. The actual amount will depend, however, upon how many claims are made by eligible former AEG shareholders. Daimler has recognized provisions in its balance sheet to satisfy the claims, but the provisions are now being reviewed once again for the year-end financial statements.

Daimler intends to use treasury shares to meet these obligations.

From the share buyback program carried out in 2008, Daimler currently holds 37.1 million own shares, which were originally acquired for the purpose of redemption without reducing the share capital and possibly also to serve the stock option plan.

We do not intend or assume any obligation to update these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made.
