Plaintiffs File Class Action Against Infineon Technologies AG, Qimonda AG, and
Infineon Technologies North America Corp.

PHILADELPHIA, April 29 /PRNewswire/ -- On Friday April 24, 2009, Klehr,
Harrison, Harvey, Branzburg & Ellers, LLP filed a multi-count class action
lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware,
titled Lakita Blair, et al. v. Infineon Technologies, AG, Infineon North
America Corp., and Qimonda AG, Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-295, on behalf of over
2,000 employees who were laid off by subsidiaries of the Defendants, Infineon
Technologies AG, Infineon Technologies North America Corp., and Qimonda, AG.
The lawsuit alleges that Defendants are alter egos or joint employers of the
Plaintiffs and thereby liable for damages arising out of the layoffs.

The complaint raises claims on behalf of virtually all former Qimonda Richmond
and Qimonda North America employees for various causes of action including,
the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act ("WARN Act"), unpaid
severance, wages, bonuses, and deferred compensation.

"Infineon should be liable for violating the law and failing to pay the
employees their earned and well-deserved compensation and benefits. We
believe the claims could easily exceed $40 million dollars," said Charles A.
Ercole, a partner at Klehr Harrison.

Former employees of Qimonda who were part of these layoffs can obtain
additional information by calling Mr. Ercole at (215) 569-4282, or by email at
