of the voting rights and 28.7% of the subscribed capital of MAN AG. MAN AG has been included

the fair value of the investment in MAN AG amounted to €1,838 million.
The following carrying amounts are attributable to the Porsche group from its interest in MAN AG
and Volkswagen AG (in fiscal year 2008/09, Volkswagen AG was considered in revenue and profit
for the period from 1 July 2008 until initial consolidation; the prior-year figures result from the
period between 1 July 2007 and 30 June 2008):

group are the investments held in Shanghai-Volkswagen Automotive Company Ltd., Shanghai,
China (“SVW”), in FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Company Ltd., Changchun, China (“FAW”) and Global
Mobility Holding B.V., Amsterdam, Netherlands as the holding company of LeasePlan N.V., Am-
sterdam, Netherlands (“LeasePlan”). The joint ventures have been considered on the basis of the
figures for the period from 5 January to 30 June 2009.
The Chinese market is supplied with products of the Volkswagen subgroup through the investment
in SVW and FAW.
Through its investment in LeasePlan, the group secures influence on Europe's market leader in
fleet and vehicle management.
