The Executive Board decided that all documents that were to be made available
at the Annual General Meeting of the Company in July 2007 would not be published on the Company’s Web site as well (Item 2.3.1). Because of the volume of the documents and reports to be made available at the meeting in connection
with various inter-company agreements with subsidiaries, only the invitation
to the Annual General Meeting and the Annual Report, including the
documentation it contains regarding the annual financial statements, were made available on the Company's web site and were thus easily accessible for all shareholders. All documents made available at the shareholders’
meeting were sent to the shareholders on request. |
