In accordance with the rotation schedule established for the Board of Management, Armin Preisig will resign from the Board at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting of shareholders on 28 April 2006. Mr Preisig has decided partly for health reasons and also taking into account personal commitments that he does not wish to seek reappointment and will be leaving the Company by mutual agreement.

Mr Preisig joined Select in 1997 and subsequently joined Vedior’s Board of Management in 2001. He has been responsible for overseeing the Group’s operations in Central and Southern Europe and Scandinavia, including Germany, Italy, Spain and Switzerland. These responsibilities will be reassigned within the Board and to other senior management. It is not proposed to appoint a replacement to the Board of Management for the time being.

The Board of Management and the Supervisory Board express their thanks to Mr Preisig for his valuable contribution to the growth of the Group and wish him success for the future.
