Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted

The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.
Deutsche Börse AG ('Deutsche Börse') has resolved on a share buyback
program pursuant to the current authorization by its shareholders. The
share buyback program lasts up until July 31, 2012. The overall repurchase
volume will amount to approximately EUR 100 million of the total planned
repurchase volume for 2012 of up to EUR 200 million.
The share buyback is to be implemented by direct purchases of registered
no-par-value shares (auf den Namen lautende Stückaktien) of Deutsche Börse
(ISIN DE0005810055) via the stock exchange.
The shares are to be used for one or several of the purposes permitted by
the authorization granted by the shareholders' meeting under item 6 of the
agenda on May 12, 2011. The shares are also to be used for purposes for
which an exclusion of subscription rights is intended, but can also be
cancelled or sold through the stock market or by way of an offer to all
shareholders.
The stock exchange repurchase will be conducted in line with standard
market conditions. The purchase price for the shares to be repurchased via
the stock exchange may neither exceed nor fall short of the average share
price for the five trading days prior to the purchase commitment by more
than 10 percent. The relevant prices for determining the average are the
closing auction prices for Deutsche Börse shares in electronic Xetra
trading at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FWB).
Deutsche Börse will instruct an independent financial institution to use
its best efforts to buyback no more than 25 percent of the average daily
trading volume on any one day in registered no-par-value shares (auf den
Namen lautende Stückaktien) of Deutsche Börse and to uphold the trading
rules set forth in Article 5 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 2273/2003 of
December 22, 2003. The financial institution will decide independently
about the timing and the volume of the purchases without being influenced
by the company. All transactions will be published according to Article 4
para. 4 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 2273/2003 no later than on the
seventh trading day following the transaction.
