To Foster Wheeler Employees:

Senior leaders of AMEC and Foster Wheeler met last week for the third in a series of integration planning workshops.

At the workshops, the leadership team received status reports and feedback on the work that’s being done in a number of very important areas, including the operating model, culture and employee engagement, branding and communications and integration management. I am pleased to tell you that all activities are on track.

The integration planning team has developed a detailed activity plan to ensure that the organization is prepared for Day 1 when, among other things, the combined company’s new visual identity will be unveiled – along with a new vision statement, updated values and individual and leadership behaviors. The new visual identity was previewed at last week’s workshops, and the initial feedback was extremely positive.

Work is also being done for the Day 1 – 100 plan. This broader planning effort includes a process for the ongoing assessment of integration risks and clearly defined success criteria.

Much has been accomplished thus far, and much remains to be done. A cross-section of Foster Wheeler employees have had the opportunity for positive engagement and collaboration with their counterparts at AMEC as part of the integration planning process. This level of cooperation is another indicator of the strong potential of the new company.

Sincerely,

Kent Masters

Chief Executive Officer

Foster Wheeler AG communication materials may contain forward-looking statements that are based on management’s assumptions, expectations and projections about the Company and the various industries within which the Company operates. These include statements regarding the Company’s expectations about revenues (including as expressed by its backlog), its liquidity, the outcome of litigation and legal proceedings and recoveries from customers for claims and the costs of current and future asbestos claims and the amount and timing of related insurance recoveries. Such forward-looking statements by their nature involve a degree of risk and uncertainty. The Company cautions that a variety of factors, including but not limited to the factors described in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2014, and the following, could cause the Company’s business conditions and results to differ materially from what is contained in forward-looking statements including: the timing and success of the proposed offer and acquisition of the Company by AMEC, the risk that the Company’s business will be adversely impacted during the pending proposed offer and acquisition of the Company by AMEC, benefits, effects or results of the Company’s redomestication to Switzerland, deterioration in global economic conditions, changes in investment by the oil and gas, oil refining, chemical/petrochemical and power generation industries, changes in the financial condition of its customers, changes in regulatory environments, changes in project design or schedules, contract cancellations, the changes in estimates made by the Company of costs to complete projects, changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies worldwide, compliance with laws and regulations relating to the Company’s global operations, currency fluctuations, war, terrorist attacks and/or natural disasters affecting facilities either owned by the Company or where equipment or services are or may be provided by the Company, interruptions to shipping lanes or other methods of transit, outcomes of pending and future litigation, including litigation regarding the Company’s liability for damages and insurance coverage for asbestos exposure, protection and validity of the Company’s patents and other intellectual property rights, increasing global competition, compliance with its debt covenants, recoverability of claims against the Company’s customers and others by the Company and claims by third parties against the Company, and changes in estimates used in its critical accounting policies. Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved in the formation of these forward-looking statements and the failure of such other assumptions to be realized, as well as other factors, may also cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Most of these factors are difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond the Company’s control. You should consider the areas of risk described above in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made by the Company. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised, however, to consult any additional disclosures the Company makes in proxy statements, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K and current reports on Form 8-K filed with or furnished to the SEC.
