                                                                   28 April 2003

               ALSTOM SELLS ITS INDUSTRIAL TURBINEs BUSINESSES TO
                            SIEMENS FOR €1.1 BILLION



ALSTOM announces that it has signed binding agreements to sell its small gas
turbines business and its medium-sized gas turbines and industrial steam
turbines businesses in two transactions to Siemens AG, which are key steps in
its continuing disposal programme.

The total enterprise value of the two transactions is €1.1 billion. Net cash
proceeds to ALSTOM are expected to be approximately €950 million after deduction
of debt transferred and certain other adjustments for cash items.

The first transaction will cover the small gas turbines business, and the second
transaction will cover the medium-sized gas turbines and industrial steam
turbines businesses.

The industrial turbines businesses being sold account for approximately 10% of
ALSTOM's Power sector revenues and sales are typically to specialist industrial
customers, for example in the oil and gas industry. They include:

o  the small gas turbines business (3 MW - 15 MW) based principally in the UK;

o  the medium-sized gas turbines business (15 MW - 50 MW) based principally in
   Sweden;

o  the industrial steam turbines (up to about 100MW) business with manufacturing
   sites in Sweden, Germany and the Czech Republic, and global customer service
   operations.

In the year ended 31 March 2003, ALSTOM's industrial turbines businesses
generated sales of approximately €1.25 billion and an estimated EBIT(1) margin
of approximately 7%. They employ some 6,500 people.

The transactions are subject to regulatory clearances and documentation is being
submitted to the relevant merger control authorities.

Commenting on the sales, Patrick Kron, Chairman and CEO of ALSTOM said:

"These transactions constitute a key milestone in our action plan to strengthen
our financial base. We thank all our employees in the industrial turbines
businesses for their support and are confident that they will have a successful
future within the Siemens Group."



Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein and Crédit Agricole Indosuez are acting as
financial advisers to ALSTOM on the disposal.

                   ALSTOM COMPLETES THE SALE OF ITS SMALL GAS
                          TURBINES BUSINESS TO SIEMENS


ALSTOM announces that, further to the announcement of 28 April 2003, it has
completed the first of two transactions with Siemens AG, being the disposal of
the small gas turbines business. The enterprise value of this transaction is
€575 million, with net proceeds to ALSTOM of approximately €525 million.

Completion of this transaction follows receipt of a formal derogation from the
European Commission under the EC merger regulation, allowing ownership of the
business to be transferred to Siemens AG with immediate effect. Siemens AG has
committed not to integrate the small gas turbine business with its own
businesses until formal merger clearance has been obtained from the European
Commission in relation to all the industrial turbines businesses.

Pending merger clearance, the medium gas turbines and industrial steam turbines
businesses to be acquired by Siemens AG will continue to be owned and managed by
ALSTOM.

Further announcements will be made in due course.
