02.03.2007

On the basis of a law passed by the Turkish government on 28 February
2007, bwin has decided to temporarily withdraw its range of online
gaming products from Turkey. Although on the one hand, the new law
prohibits online games of chance, on the other it also provides for
the possibility of acquiring a licence at a later date. bwin
generates about six per cent of its gross gaming revenues in Turkey.

The Company is confident that it will be able to offer licensed
online gaming products in Turkey again in the future, and will
therefore be endeavouring to acquire a licence. This presupposes that
the authorities will make use of the possibility of issuing licences
for online games of chance as provided for by the law, thus
implementing an up-to-date regulation to the benefit of all
concerned.
