24.05.2007

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA (OR TO US PERSONS), AUSTRALIA, CANADA OR JAPAN, OR IN ANY
OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH OFFERS OR SALES WOULD BE PROHIBITED BY
APPLICABLE LAW

The Management Board of TUI AG ("TUI") resolved today, subject to the
consent of the Supervisory Board, to issue unsecured, unsubordinated
convertible bonds (the "Bonds"). The Bonds are issued by TUI AG and
were placed only with institutional investors outside of the US. The
pre-emptive rights of shareholders of TUI AG to subscribe to the
Bonds were excluded.

The issue size is EUR632.5 million. Due to strong demand, the initial
issue size of EUR550 million was directly increased by EUR82.5
million (the "Upsize Option"). In addition, TUI has granted the banks
managing the placement, Citi, Deutsche Bank and Unicredit MIB, a
greenshoe option of up to EUR61.5 million to cover over-allotments.
The total issue size can therefore amount up to EUR694 million.

The conversion price is set to EUR27.68 representing a premium of 30%
above the volume weighted average XETRA price of TUI´s ordinary
shares during the placement. Up to approximately 25.07 million
ordinary shares of TUI are underlying the Bonds at the outset
(assuming that the greenshoe option is fully exercised).

The maturity of the Bonds is 5 years and 3 months. The Bonds will be
issued at 100% of the principal amount on 1 June 2007 (the
"Settlement Date") and pay a coupon of 2.75%.

TUI intends to list the Bonds on the Euro MTF market of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange.

Citi, Deutsche Bank and Unicredit MIB are acting as Joint Bookrunners
("the Joint Bookrunners") and sole syndicate members of the Offering.
Deutsche Bank is acting as stabilisation manager (the "Stabilising
Manager") of the issue. In connection with the Offering, the
Stabilising Manager, from today until the earlier of 30 days after
the Settlement Date or 60 days after allotment of the Bonds, may, to
the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, effect
transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Bonds
and/or the shares of TUI at a level higher than that which may
otherwise prevail. There is, however, no obligation to undertake such
stabilisation measures, and such stabilisation measures may, after
they have been commenced, be terminated at any time. The greenshoe
option can only be exercised to an amount of up to EUR61.5 million
until the Settlement Date. At the end of the stabilisation period a
statement on stabilisation measures and the exercise of the greenshoe
option if undertaken are published in the German newspapers
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and Börsenzeitung.

TUI intends to use the proceeds from the sale of the convertible
bonds for general corporate purposes as well as to have the
possibility to refinance part of its existing indebtedness.

Stabilisation FSA.

acquire such Bonds will be engaged in only with, relevant persons.
Any person who is not a relevant person should not act or rely on
this press release or any of its contents.
