WALLDORF, Germany--March 1, 1999--At CeBIT 99, SAP AG  
(NYSE ADR:SAP) will announce details of its plans to deliver its  
industry-leading enterprise application solution SAP(tm) R/3® on the  
Linux operating system, responding to a growing groundswell of  
customer demand for this platform.  
 
In addition, SAP will detail the broad support it has already received  
from its major hardware and software partners for its initiative to  
deliver SAP R/3 on Linux. These vendors will deliver Linux-based  
systems, tools and databases and provide ongoing platform  
maintenance and support. The growing industry support for Linux  
adds further proof that it has emerged as a stable and reliable  
platform for business computing and gives customers who are  
already investing in Linux systems a way to further leverage this  
investment.  
 
``We have received a significant number of serious customer  
requests for R/3 on Linux over the past year,'' said Hasso Plattner,  
co-chairman and CEO of SAP AG. ``After extensive testing in-house  
and discussions with our partners and customers, we are confident  
that Linux meets our standards.''  
 
At CeBIT 99, SAP will be offering live demonstrations of SAP R/3  
running in the Linux environment and provide more details about this  
announcement. First customer shipment is due in the third quarter of  
this year.
