Leonardo Venture GmbH & Co. KGaA has filed the action for damages - 
as already announced - against the former general partner Leonardo 
Venture Capital GmbH and its former managing directors Prof. Dr. 
Köglmayr and Prof. Dr. Wupper-feld, as well as its current managing 
director Mr. Koop, with the District Court in Mannheim.
The filing of the action as of today´s date has taken place as the 
respondents had not reacted to the draft of the claim for damages 
dispatched on March 5, 2009. This draft granted them a statutory 
deadline of ten days to reach an out-of-court settlement of the 
matter.
The action for damages is the consequence of various breaches of duty
by the management of the general partner, which the Supervisory Board
of Leonardo Venture GmbH & Co. KGaA uncovered in the course of the 
2008 business year. The claim is based on the joint and several 
liability of Leonardo Venture Capital GmbH and its managing 
directors; it comprises damages provisionally set at approximately 5 
million euros.
