the acquisition of shares we hereby inform you pursuant to section 27a para
1 sentences 1 and 3 German Securities Trading Act as follows:

1. The acquisition of voting rights exceeding the notification threshold
   of 25% aims at a long term strategic investment in First Sensor AG in order

   supervisory board in the course of the next general meeting of shareholders
   and to exercise influence regarding the actual composition of the
   supervisory board by exercising the voting rights.

   First Sensor AG, in particular with regard to the relation between
   equity-funding and debt financing as well as with regard to dividend policy
   of First Sensor AG.

Regarding the origin of funds used for the acquisition of shares we hereby
inform you pursuant to section 27a para 1 sentence 4 German Securities
Trading Act that such acquisition has been financed solely from liquid
