As previously decided, the share buyback involves the purchase of no more

March 2008, Tipp24 AG already purchased a total of 324,020 treasury shares
from the maximum volume. These shares are still held. In addition to the
443,615 shares purchased during the first share buyback programme in 2007,
Tipp24 AG now holds a total of 767,635 treasury shares as of 25 March 2008,
equivalent to 8.65% of share capital.
The resolution is based on an authorization provided by the Annual
Shareholders' Meeting of 24 May 2007, which permits the Executive Board of
Tipp24 AG to purchase treasury shares in the period up to 24 November 2008.
All other regulations of the current share buyback programme continue to
apply during the extension period.
The share buyback can be interrupted at any time and resumed at a later
