Luxembourg, March 30, 2011 - All 20,535,100 new shares of SAF-HOLLAND 
S.A., Luxembourg (ISIN: LU0307018795) were placed at a price of EUR 7.00
per new share with institutional investors and with retail investors. The
public offering to retail investors in Germany comprised up to 5% of the
total shares offered - this corresponded to 1,026,755 new shares.

95% of the total number of 20,535,100 new shares were allotted to
institutional investors. Retail investors in Germany were allotted 5% of
the total number of 20,535,100 new shares placed. The public offering to
retail investors in Germany was over-subscribed by nearly four times. As a
result of the over-subscription of the offering, the subscription orders
received could not be fully considered. Subscription orders up to and
including 9,000 shares received a full allotment. Subscription orders for
more than 9,000 shares up to and including 10,000 shares received 9,000
shares each. Subscription orders for more than 10,000 shares were allotted
9,216 shares each. The allotment within the scope of the offering to retail
investors was carried out in line with the Principles for Allotment of
Share Issues to Private Investors ('Grundsätze für die Zuteilung von
Aktienemissionen an Privatanleger') issued on June 7, 2000 by the Stock
Exchange Commission ('Börsensachverständigenkommission') of the German
Federal Ministry of Finance. The allotment was in accordance with uniform
criteria ('standardized allotment') for all retail investors in Germany.

There was no preferential allotment to members of the executive bodies of
SAF-HOLLAND S.A. or their relatives or to employees or business partners of
SAF-HOLLAND S.A.

The new shares of SAF-HOLLAND S.A. were admitted to trading and included in
the existing quotation on the regulated market (Prime Standard) on the
Frankfurt Stock Exchange on March 28, 2011.
