AIXTRON Shareholders Approve All Resolutions

Aachen, Germany, May 14, 2008 – Shareholders of AIXTRON AG, world-leading
provider of deposition equipment to the semiconductor industry, today voted
strongly in favor of the resolutions presented by the Executive Board
(Vorstand) and the Supervisory Board (Aufsichtsrat).

The following resolutions were approved at AIXTRON’s 11th annual
shareholder meeting:
• Dividend payment for fiscal year 2007
• Approvals of the activities of the members of the Management Board
(Vorstand) and of the Supervisory Board (Aufsichtsrat) during fiscal year
2007
• Election of the auditors and the Group auditors for fiscal year 2008

Due to the conversion of bearer shares into registered shares the
provisions of the articles of association of AIXTRON AG regarding the
attendance of the shareholder meeting are amended. In addition, diverse
authorizations – e. g. for the issuance of stock options and of warrants
and/or convertible bonds – and the underlying contingent and authorized
capital are adjusted to the conversion into registered shares.

All resolutions were accepted by at least 99 percent of the votes cast at
the meeting. 37 percent of AIXTRON AG’s share capital was represented at
the shareholder meeting held at the Eurogress in Aachen, Germany.
