Dividend Announcements/Distribution/Company Information/Bonus shares
25.03.2013

Following today's approval of the Supervisory Board, the Management
Board and the Supervisory Board decided to propose to the Annual
General Meeting on 23 May 2013 a dividend of EUR 0.50 per share
(previous year: EUR 0.40 per share) and a capital increase from
company funds for the issue of bonus shares.

The proposed resolution concerning the issue of bonus shares provides
for an increase in the company's share capital from EUR 11,134,794.00
by EUR 11,134,794.00 to EUR 22,269,588.00 by issuing 11,134,794 new
no par bearer shares. This measure is intended to increase the
liquidity of LPKF's shares and enhance its attractiveness especially
for private shareholders.

If resolved by the Annual General Meeting, the capital increase will
be implemented by converting retained earnings and a portion of the
capital reserves into share capital. The shareholders are entitled to
these new shares at a ratio of 1:1, which means that one new no par
share will be issued for each old no par share. Shareholders will not
make any contributions in this context.

The new shares will carry dividend rights from January 1, 2013. The
issue of bonus shares does not change the percentage in the company's
share capital that is held by individual shareholders. This measure
has no effect on the amount of the company's equity.

The shares of LPKF Laser & Electronics AG are listed on the TecDAX
index of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (ISIN 0006450000).

The complete 2012 annual report will be published on 26 March 2013 at
