               Intention to delist from the London Stock Exchange


Schering AG announced today that it intends to delist its securities from the
Official List of the UK Listing Authority and from trading on the London Stock
Exchange plc ("London listing"). This action is being taken due to the small
trading volume of Schering AG shares at the London Stock Exchange and the costs
associated with the maintenance of the London listing.

This decision will have minimal implications for United Kingdom shareholders
and, importantly, will not require them to take any specific actions. After
cancellation of the London listing, the majority of share trading in Schering AG
shares will continue to take place on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in Germany.

It is anticipated that the London listing will be withdrawn with effect from the
close of business on March 31, 2003.
