Netherlands, August&nbsp;5, 2012 - ASML Holding NV announces today that TSMC has joined its Customer Co-Investment Program for innovation, committing to invest EUR 276&nbsp;million in research and development of next generation lithography
technologies, which include Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography technology and 450-millimeter lithography tools, over the next five years as well as EUR 838&nbsp;million in a 5 percent ASML equity stake. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The objective of the Co-Investment Program, which was announced on July&nbsp;9, 2012, is to accelerate ASML&#146;s development of EUV technology beyond
this current generation and ASML&#146;s development of future 450 mm silicon wafer technology, both due in the second half of this decade. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;One of the biggest challenges facing IC scaling today is how to effectively control the escalating wafer manufacturing cost,&#148; said Shang-yi
Chiang, TSMC executive vice president and co-chief operating officer. &#147;We are confident that the additional funding for ASML&#146;s research and development programs will help secure and accelerate EUV development activities, in parallel with
the necessary focus on improved performance of existing optical lithography tools and speed up the deployment of new technologies for 450 millimeter wafers. This effort will help the industry control wafer cost, and therefore protect the economic
viability of Moore&#146;s Law.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;We welcome TSMC to our Customer Co-Investment Program. The objective of the Co-Investment program
is to secure and accelerate key lithography technologies. These technologies will benefit the entire industry and are not restricted to our Co-Investment partners,&#148; said Eric Meurice, Chief Executive Officer of ASML. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As part of ASML&#146;s Customer Co-Investment Program, ASML may issue up to an aggregate 25 percent minority equity stake to customers. The entire cash
proceeds from the share issuance will be returned to ASML shareholders (not including participating customers) through a synthetic buy-back. With Intel and TSMC now committing to the Co-Investment Program, 20% equity has been committed. The
remaining 5% equity holding potential is being discussed with other customers. The shares to be issued to TSMC, Intel and any other customers that participate in the Co-Investment Program will be non-voting except in exceptional circumstances.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As announced on 9&nbsp;July 2012, ASML can issue new shares equivalent to 9.99% of ASML&#146;s issued share capital to Intel as per the
decisions made at ASML&#146;s 2012 Annual General Meeting of shareholders. The issuance of further shares in the Co-Investment Program to both Intel and TSMC (and any additional customers who may participate in the Co-Investment Program) as well as
the synthetic buyback are subject to shareholder approval at the extraordinary meeting of shareholders scheduled for September&nbsp;7, 2012. </FONT></P>
