Information and Explaination of the Issuer to this News:

Explanatory part

With the contract extension of Professor Peter Schwenkow as CEO, the
continuity of the executive management is ensured together with the members
of the Executive Board. This is an important basis for the focussed
continuation of the growth strategy.

For DEAG the focus will be during the next three years on the further
strengthening of its own distribution channel MyTicket, which is
established in Germany together with Axel Springer and ProSiebenSat.1. This
segment is at present already exceeding expectations. The success of
myticket.co.uk testifies to the successful establishment on foreign
markets. An expansion to Austria and later on to Switzerland is, therefore,
on the agenda.

Moreover, the further expansion of the national and international festival
business and the enlargement of the Family Entertainment segment with
'Disney on Ice', 'Riverdance', 'Circus Roncalli', 'Night of the Jumps' and
the further development of the Classical Music segment are expedited. The
Executive Board is, therefore, optimistic that it will be able to gain
higher market shares in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the United
Kingdom with its attractive Live Entertainment offering in conjunction with
own customer and service-oriented distribution channels.
