Effective 1 April 2008, the Supervisory Board of Tipp24 AG has decided to
expand the Executive Board with the addition of two new seats. The
expansion reflects the growth and strategic alignment of the Group. There
will also be a reallocation of responsibilities.

Marcus Geiss (37), General Manager of Tipp24’s Italian subsidiary
Puntogioco24 since 2003 and Head of Corporate Development since mid 2007,
will be the Executive Board member with responsibility for Corporate
Development and more recent foreign business. Geiss will focus increasingly
on Tipp24’s future markets.

Petra von Strombeck (38) was hired by the Group in November 2007 as Head of
Marketing. In future, she will be the Executive Board member with
responsibility for Marketing, which is also to be expanded internationally.

The founder and Executive Board member Jens Schumann (34) will assume the
newly created position of Chairman of the Executive Board as of 31 March
2008. Schumann will also be responsible for the areas of Strategy, Lobbying
and Public Relations.

Dr. Hans Cornehl (40), who has been with Tipp24 since 2002 and mainly
responsible for finance, has been appointed Deputy Chairman of the
Executive Board. Dr. Cornehl will also be responsible for the HR and
Technology divisions and for the Spanish market.
