Foster Wheeler AG Announced That Has Recommended The Payment of a Cash Dividend

Foster Wheeler AG announced that its board of directors has recommended the payment of a cash dividend of $0.40 per registered share, subject to approval by the company's shareholders at the company's annual general meeting, to be held on May 7, 2014.   Assuming shareholder approval at the annual general meeting, the dividend will be paid on or about May 21, 2014, to shareholders of record as of May 7, 2014.  

Because the dividend will be funded by the company's qualifying capital contribution reserves, it will not be subject to Swiss withholding taxes.   Payment of the proposed dividend is not conditioned on closing of the company's previously announced transaction with AMEC plc. Additional information relating to the proposed dividend will be set forth in the proxy statement and other relevant materials to be filed by the company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the company's annual general meeting.
