in the reporting period amounted to € 68.8 million (2006: € 67.0 million), including € 9.4 million<br />

and technologies were identified as intangible assets and recognized in the balance sheet at € 66.9<br />

million on the date of their first-time consolidation. This resulted in a net book value of € 65.7 million<br />
