The Management Board of Deutsche Effecten und Wechsel-Beteiligungsgesellschaft
AG (DEWB), Jena, has today resolved, with the consent of the Supervisory Board,
a switch from the Regulated Market (Prime Standard) to the Open Market (Entry
Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

The application for revocation of the admission for the Regulated Market will be
submitted to Deutsche Börse AG in the coming days. After expiry of a transition
period for execution of the revocation, trade in DEWB shares will continue in
the Entry Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

Price quotations on XETRA and liquidity support of the shares by a commissioned
designated sponsor will be maintained.

The reason for the segment switch is a considerable consequent reduction in cost
burden. In this context, DEWB will cease the voluntary financial reporting
according to IFRS with its quarterly report as of 30 September 2009.
