right to have such shares converted to Class B shares. Conversion reduces the
total number of votes in the company. When such a conversion has occurred, the
company is obligated by law to disclose any such changes in this manner.

In February, at the request of shareholders 1,100,009 Class A shares were
converted to Class B shares. The total number of votes in the company thereafter
amounts to 1,528,406,964.

The total number of registered shares in the company amounts to 705,110,094 of
