Planned changes in human resources and the social area

The number of employees in the Group will continue to rise in the future as a result of the expected expansion. We expect that the percentage increase in the number of employees will be in the mid-single digits in 2011. Increases are planned in all business segments. The regional distribution of our employees will not change significantly – about 50% will be located in Europe and one-third in North America – with the remainder spread over Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Africa.
