Bad Fredeburg, 28 April 2008 – The majority shareholder of burgbad AG, the
family-owned company Ruddies Beteiligungs- und
Vermögensverwaltungsgesellschaft mbH (RBV), has today signed an agreement
with regards to the sale of shares in burgbad AG, which provides the
prerequisite that Eczacibasi Group will acquire a majority shareholding in
burgbad Aktiengesellschaft.
The implementation of the agreement is still subject to customary
conditions of execution, and in particular to approval of the transaction
by the German and Turkish antitrust authorities.

Voluntary public takeover bid by Eczacibasi amounting to 
EUR 20.12

The Eczacibasi Group has announced that – in addition to the purchase of
shares from RBV – it will also be launching a voluntary public takeover bid
to the other burgbad shareholders in accordance with the requirements of
the German Securities Acquisition and Takeover Act (WpÜG).

Eczacibasi intends to pay EUR 20.12 per burgbad share within the framework
of a cash offer. This offer price represents a premium of approximately
34,5% compared to the volume weighted average XETRA price of the burgbad
shares (14.96 EUR) in the three months preceding the announcement of the
intention to make the offer.
