Air Berlin PLC: Share register notice

09.07.2012

On the issuer’s (Air Berlin PLCs) behalf, Clearstream Banking1 informs its customers that Air Berlin PLC’s share register will no longer accept any requests to register a third party shareholder (i.e. a nominee registration) (“Fremdbesitz”) with immediate effect.

Important Information:

At Air Berlin PLC’s request, the following explanation is provided: “Share registrations in a third party shareholder’s name (i.e., a nominee registration) are not permitted on Air Berlin PLC’s share register and thus bear no right to vote. Air Berlin PLC will therefore, effective since June 11th 2012, refuse any requests to register a third party shareholder (i.e., a nominee registration) in its share register. Air Berlin PLC requires that, effective immediately, when submitting a share register change request, credit institutions submit the shares’ beneficial owner(s), instead of the previously submitted nominee(s).

Both the registrar and the issuer are available for answering any questions in this regard:
