The Managing board of HeidelbergCement AG, with the consent of the
Supervisory Board, has determined the subscription price for the 62.5
million new shares from the capital increase 2009 and the offer price
for the preceding private placement of the new shares solely with
qualified institutional investors at EUR 37 per share and has set the
subscription period for the new shares to from and including
September 24, 2009 to and including October 7, 2009.

All new shares have been allocated in the private placement, with
7,783,853 of these new shares subject to claw-back in case of the
exercise of subscription rights by those shareholders who have not
previously assigned their subscription rights to the Global
Coordinators. Hence, under the conditions set forth in the
subscription offer the company will receive net proceeds of
approximately EUR 2.25 billion from the capital increase.

The company´s major shareholders (Spohn Cement GmbH and VEM
Vermögensverwaltung GmbH ("VEM") and certain subsidiaries of VEM, all
of which are controlled by Mr. Ludwig Merckle) as well as certain
companies related to VEM (Seitengesellschaften) and certain banks
holding shares in the company have sold solely to qualified
institutional investors a total of 57,155,751 old shares in the
private placement of old shares which took place concurrently with
the private placement of the new shares.

Delivery of the shares sold to investors in the private placements
with the exception of the 7,783,853 new shares allocated subject to
claw-back is expected to take place on or about September 25, 2009.
Delivery of the new shares subscribed for in the subscription offer
and of the new shares allocated subject to claw-back is expected to
take place on or about October 9, 2009.
