Dortmund, December 30, 2008

CFC Industriebeteiligungen GmbH & Co. KGaA (ISIN: DE000A0LBKW6), Dortmund,
has acquired a 100 % interest in Rosner GmbH & Co. KG, with headquarters in
Ingolstadt, by contractual deed signed today. The companys seller is a
group company of Japanese fashion group Link Theory Holdings Co. Ltd.,
Tokyo. CFC acquires the interest for a token purchase price of EUR 1.00.
The previous shareholder supports this transaction with a loan of EUR 5.0
million.

Rosner is one of the leading textile companies in Germany and distributes
ladies apparel (pants, skirts, blazers, coats, suits, knitwear and
sportswear) in the medium and premium price segments under the brand name
'rosner'. The company covers all major steps of the value added chain: from
design and purchasing, quality management and logistics through marketing
and distribution. Rosner currently has some 240 employees at its Ingolstadt
location and realized revenue of just under EUR 40 million in the past
financial year as of June 30, 2008.

CFC seeks to set Rosners course for profitable growth within a short
period of time by an optimization of the procurement, manufacturing and
delivery processes and a continuation of the refocused product and
distribution strategies. The synergies within the CFC portfolio in the
segment 'Fashion' including the brands delmod, Hirsch and dinomoda will
make a significant contribution.

For the segment 'Fashion' including Rosner, CFC anticipates a sales volume
of altogether more than EUR 100 million to be generated with ladies
apparel next year.
