On January 14, 2008, the Company announced that as part of a regular and frequent review of its strategic options, the Board of Directors of the Company (the Board) had scheduled discussions with a limited number of investment firms. These discussions were initiated following discussions between the Board and some of the Company's larger shareholders. The Company confirms that discussions with such investment firms have taken place. The Board, the Company's Supervisory Board and these larger shareholders have, however, concluded that for reasons primarily related to the current state of the financial markets, the continuation of such discussions at this time is without merit, and hence the discussions have been terminated.
