Amendments to the Articles of Association                                       

The AGM decided that, in order to enhance the liquidity of the shares, a        
conversion clause be added to the Articles of Association, enabling the         
conversion of A shares into B shares, and that the following amendments         
accordant with the new Limited Liability Companies Act (624/06) and principally 
technical in nature, be made to the Articles of Association concerning the      
company's shares, the representation of the company, the appointment of an      
auditor and the AGM:                                                            

Articles 3, 7, 9 and 11 of the Articles of Association shall be amended in their
entirety to read as follows:                                                    

Article 3 - The minimum share capital of the company is EUR 1,063,101.29 and the
maximum share capital of the company is EUR 4,252,405.16. Within this limit     
range, the share capital can be increased or decreased without changing the     
Articles of Association.                                                        

The shares are divided into series A containing a minimum of 0 and a maximum of

maximum of 21,112,148 shares.                                                   

In the general shareholders' meeting, one series A share entitles the holder to 
20 votes, while one series B share entitles to 1 vote.                          

In terms of dividends, series B shares receive dividends that are 2 (two)       
percentage points higher than series A shares in relation to the nominal values.

In the case of dissolution of the company due to a merger or some other reason, 
holders of series A and B shares have an equal right to merger consideration or 
other compensation payable due to dissolution.                                  

The shares of the company are listed in a book-entry security system.           

A series A share can be converted, upon the request of its holder and by        
decision of the Board of Directors, into a series B share, entitling the holder 
to receive one series B share for one series A share.                           

===
