After today´s extraordinary meeting of the Supervisory Board,

Josef E. Burger  will  resign from his duties as Chief Commercial 
Officer at the end of September 2007 by  his own request. Dr. Burger

time if  and how the position will be filled.
The President of the Supervisory Board Dr. Peter Michaelis  made  the
following comment: "I do regret that Dr. Burger resigns and I thank 
him for  his  valuable activities as Chief Commercial Officer and his
high  commitment.  Together  with the management team, Dr. Burger has
considerably contributed to  the  successful positioning of Austrian
