E.ON intends to delist from New York Stock Exchange

Transparent financial reporting and corporate governance maintained

No affect on business strategy in the United States

E.ON intends to delist its American Depositary Shares ('ADSs') from the New
York Stock Exchange ('NYSE') and to deregister and terminate its reporting
obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC'). The E.ON
Board of Management approved the decision at its meeting on August 21,
2007. E.ON expects delisting to become effective on September 7, 2007
following the close of the market in New York.

Commenting on E.ON’s decision, CFO Marcus Schenck said: 'Delisting and
deregistration do not affect E.ON’s business strategy in the United States.
Our sole purpose is to reduce administrative complexity and costs. We
remain committed to the highest standards of corporate governance and
transparent financial reporting and will continue to maintain an open and
direct dialog with our U.S. investors.'

E.ON will pursue its current American Depositary Receipt program on a Level
I basis, which it expects should allow most investors to continue to hold
its securities in the form of ADSs if they wish to do so. E.ON’s ordinary
shares will remain to be traded on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange including
XETRA, its integrated electronic securities trading system as well as on
the German regional stock exchanges.

Today, E.ON has provided written notice to the NYSE of its intent to delist
and plans to file the related Form 25 with the SEC on August 31. E.ON
expects delisting to become effective ten days after the filing, following
which time E.ON-ADSs will no longer be traded on the NYSE. Once the
delisting has become effective, E.ON intends to file Form 15F with the SEC
in order to deregister. Deregistration is expected to become effective 90
days later. E.ON reserves the right, for any reason, to delay these filings
or to withdraw them prior to their effectiveness.

E.ON will continue to make English translations of its annual reports,
financial statements, and financial press releases available on its website
at eon.com.
