Preamble

SAP AG with registered office in Walldorf/Germany (SAP) currently
holding more than 94 percent of the shares in SAF Simulation,
Analysis and Forecasting AG (SAF or the Company) intends to merge the
businesses of its Swiss subsidiary SAP (Schweiz) AG with registered
office in Biel (SAP CH) and the Company. The shareholders shall
resolve at the extraordinary shareholders' meeting on the merger
agreement concluded between the Board of Directors of SAF and SAP CH
on August 24, 2011.

Agenda and Motions of the Board

1. Approval of the merger agreement between SAP (Schweiz) AG and SAF
Simulation, Analysis and Forecasting AG dated August 24, 2011

Motion of the Board: approval of merger agreement between SAP (Schweiz) AG
(as acquiring company) and SAF Simulation, Analysis and Forecasting AG (as
transferring company) dated August 24, 2011.

Explanations:

The Company and SAP have already been successfully cooperating since 2002
by way of a strategic OEM partnership. In the course of this cooperation,
the primary product of SAF is marketed as a component of the software
offering of the SAP Forecasting & Replenishment solution. SAP has been the
majority shareholder of SAF since its public offer during the summer 2009.
SAP currently holds around 94.7 percent in SAF.

SAF and SAP CH have decided to operationally and legally combine their
businesses. The consolidation of the two enterprises will enable the common
development of technologies and solutions and their marketing as a
component of SAP solutions. In particular, SAF's innovativeness will be
brought together with SAP's global presence and experience. Both
enterprises anticipate considerable synergetic effects in the field of
distribution, services and administration. The combination will establish a
basis for being even more successful on the market of replenishment
planning based on consumer demand patterns (prognosegestützte
Warennachschubplanung) and creating further innovations.

The merger agreement of August 24, 2011 provides for a merger of SAF into
SAP CH as provided for by art. 3 para. 1 letter a. of the Swiss Merger Law
(merger by absorption). All assets and liabilities of SAF will consequently
be taken over by SAP CH by operation of law. The takeover will be
implemented based on SAF's existing book value as evidenced in the balance
sheet as of June 30, 2011 and with economic effect as of July 1, 2011 (see
agenda item 2 below for further information). Upon entry of the merger in
the Commercial Register, SAF will cease to exist without liquidation. It is
intended to retain SAF's current locations as centres of excellence for
retail, forecasting and replenishment.

Upon the Company's dissolution pursuant to the entry of the merger in the
Commercial Register, trading in SAF shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange
will be discontinued. The last trading day in SAF shares is consequently
anticipated to be at the end of September 2011. The minority shareholders
of SAF will receive a cash settlement of EUR 17,60 per SAF share as
compensation determined by the Committee of Independent Board Members of
SAF and the Board of Directors of SAF and SAP CH based on an independent
valuation report of BDO AG with registered office in Zurich. Since the
minority shareholders will receive a cash settlement as compensation, they
will incur no additional obligations as a result of the merger. The merger
requires the approval of at least 90 percent of SAF's shareholders with
voting rights.

2. Approval of the semiannual financial statements of June 30, 2011

Motion of the Board: approval of the semiannual financial statements of the
Company as of June 30, 2011 with regard to the intended merger between SAP
(Schweiz) AG and SAF Simulation, Analysis and Forecasting AG.

Explanations:

SAP CH will take over the assets and liabilities of SAF into its balance
sheet based on their existing book values as evidenced in the interim
balance sheet of SAF as of June 30, 2011 (merger balance sheet) and with
economic effect as of July 1, 2011. For the implementation of the merger,
the semiannual financial statements as of June 30, 2011 have thus to be
approved by the extraordinary shareholders' meeting. This agenda item shall
consequently only be voted on if agenda item 1 is approved.

3. Release of the members of the Board of Directors and management

Motion of the Board: release of the members of the Board of Directors and
management for the financial year 2011 until this extraordinary
shareholders' meeting.

Explanations:

Upon the implementation of the merger SAF will be dissolved and its entire
assets and liabilities will be transferred to SAP CH by way of universal
succession (Universalsukzession). The members of the Board of Directors and
the management of SAF will consequently have to be released by the
extraordinary shareholders' meeting based on the current state of knowledge
and for the financial year 2011 until the date of the extraordinary
shareholders' meeting. This agenda item shall consequently only be voted on
if agenda item 1 is approved.
