K+S Replaces TUI In DAX

Date 03/09/2008

On Wednesday, Deutsche Börse has decided on changes in its equity indices DAX®, MDAX®, SDAX® and TecDAX® that will take effect on 22 September. The share of K+S will be included in DAX and will replace TUI. The inclusion of K+S was triggered by the fast-entry rule. TUI will therefore leave the index.

The share of TUI will move to MDAX replacing the share of K+S, which moves to DAX.
At the same time Bauer will be included in MDAX, Deutz will be leaving the index.

The share of Deutz will replace the share of Bauer in SDAX. Furthermore, Centrotec Sustainable and VTG will move to SDAX, whereas Interhyp and D+S Europe will leave the index.

Manz Automation will be included in TecDAX and will replace Ersol Solar Energy. The share of SMA Solar Energy will also be included in TecDAX, and BB Medtech will leave the index.

The next equity index review is scheduled for 3 December 2008.
