Due to a misprint in the ad hoc announcement and press release on 29 March 2006, 1:21 p.m., the second paragraph instead of 'With the capital increase, the number of issued shares will increase from 6,234,423 to 6,639,618 shares, corresponding to an increase of subscribed share capital in common stock from EUR 18,703,269 to EUR 19,918,845.' should read 'With the capital increase, the number of issued shares will increase from 6,234,423 to 6.618.761 shares, corresponding to an increase of subscribed share capital in common stock from EUR 18,703,269 to EUR 19,856,283.'
