DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-151308) (the “Registration Statement”) of Allianz SE, Allianz Finance Corporation and Allianz Finance III B.V. (collectively, the “Registrants”) pertaining to debt securities, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and became effective on May 30, 2008.

On September 22, 2009, Allianz SE announced its intention to delist its American Depositary Shares, its underlying ordinary shares and its 8.375% Undated Subordinated Callable Bonds from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and that this delisting would be followed by an application to deregister and terminate its reporting obligations under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

As a result and pursuant to the Registrants’ undertaking in Item 10 of Part II of this Registration Statement, the Registrants hereby withdraw this Registration Statement, including all amendments and exhibits thereto, with respect to the unsold portion of securities registered hereon. In June 2008, Allianz SE completed the offering of US$ 2,000,000,000 8.375% Undated Subordinated Callable Bonds pursuant to this Registration Statement.
