TION IS FOR IMFORMATIONAL PURPO<strong>SE</strong>S ONLY.<br />
statements as of 31 December 2007. The financial statements will be audited<br />
by <strong>conwert</strong>'s independent auditor.<br />
• The sellers are entitled to receive the profits earned by the target companies<br />
in the financial year 2007. <strong>conwert</strong> is, however, economically entitled to the<br />
profits for subsequent financial years.<br />
• In their offers the sellers have given an extensive catalogue of customary rep-<br />
resentations and warranties, in particular concerning company law matters, fi-<br />
nancial statements, accountancy and financial matters, taxes and fees, intel-<br />
lectual property rights, material contracts, insurance matters, employment law<br />
matters, litigation, real estate and environmental law matters, administrative<br />
law matters, the conduct of the business since the end of the last financial<br />
year and regarding the truthfulness, completeness and correctness of the in-<br />
formation disclosed in the due diligence and the non-misleading nature of such<br />
information. The representations and warranties are valid for certain periods,<br />
in which <strong>conwert</strong>'s auditors will, in particular, audit the financial statements of<br />
the target companies, and are secured by profits to which the sellers are eco-<br />
nomically entitled. In case of a breach of a representation or warranty <strong>conwert</strong><br />
can use this security to satisfy its claims.<br />
<strong>conwert</strong>'s representation and warranty claims are subject to customary liability<br />
limitations. Liabilities resulting from the breach of representations or warran-<br />
ties are generally limited to half of the purchase price. The liability for repre-<br />
sentations and warranties regarding company law matters and taxes is, how-<br />
ever, limited with the purchase price, in one case this liability is even unlim-<br />
ited.<br />
• For the period from the date of the offers (30 September 2007) until Closing<br />
<strong>conwert</strong> has customary co-determination rights and the sellers are obligated<br />
not to carry out any disadvantageous transactions.<br />
• In addition, the sellers are subject to non-compete and non-solicitation clauses<br />
for a period of between one year (for the stock exchange listed Wiener Privat-<br />
bank <strong>Immobilien</strong>invest AG) and up to 5 years. A breach of these clauses trig-<br />
gers a contractual penalty.<br />

estate services. After having acquired RESAG <strong>Immobilien</strong>makler GmbH, RESAG<br />
