In terms of guidance calculation, Operating Income before D&A and Operating
Income exclude other exceptional revenues/expenses not foreseeable in 2005-2008.
These exceptionals amounted to 354.4 MM€ in 2004 and are therefore also
excluded, meaning a calculation base for guidance of 2,940.5 MM€ for Operating
Income before D&A and 1,361.7 MM€ for Operating Income, respectively. Personnel
Restructuring and Real Estate Programs are included as operating revenues/
expenses.

All projections refer to local currency, that is assuming constant exchange
rates as of 2004, and exclude changes in consolidation, except the acquisition
of Atrium.
