By resolution of May 17, 2011, the General Meeting of ELMOS Semiconductor
AG (FSE: ELG), Dortmund, authorized the Management Board, subject to the
Supervisory Board's consent, to acquire the company's shares in a volume of
up to 10% of the share capital until May 16, 2016. Today, the Management
Board decided, with the Supervisory Board's consent, to make use of this
authorization. The share buyback will probably begin on August 28, 2012.
The purchase price for the acquisition of the company's shares may
altogether not exceed 3,600,000 Euro (excluding transaction costs).
However, up to 400,000 shares (ISIN DE0005677108) maximum are intended to
be bought back. This volume equals 2.05% of the company's current share
capital. At present, the company holds treasury shares in a volume of 0.41%
of the share capital. The buyback is scheduled to be completed by March 31,
2013.

The shares to be acquired may be used for any of the purposes stated in the
authorization given by the General Meeting of May 17, 2011.

In analogous application of the provisions of Commission Regulation (EC)
No. 2273/2003 of December 22, 2003, the acquisition of the shares on the
stock market will be made by involving a credit institution which will make
its decision on the time of the acquisition of the company's shares
independently of and without influence by ELMOS Semiconductor AG. The
purchase price per share (excluding transaction costs) may neither exceed
the opening price on Xetra at the Frankfurt/Main Stock Exchange on the
acquisition date by more than 10% nor undercut it by more than 20%.

The Management Board may suspend the share buyback program and resume it at
any time in compliance with the insider trading rules of the German
Securities Trading Act.

ELMOS Semiconductor AG will report on the company's shares acquired at any
trading day, stating the date, the number of shares, and the
volume-weighted average price, within seven trading days at
