Disclaimer:
Not for release, publication or distribution, in whole or in part,
in, into or from the United States or any jurisdiction where to do so

jurisdiction.

at the close of business on March 6th it had the following securities
in issue:

EUR 1.00 each in issue.
The ISIN reference number for these securities is AT0000767553.
Dealing Disclosure Requirements
Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the Takeover Code, if any person
is, or becomes, "interested" (directly or indirectly) in 1% or more
of any class of "relevant securities" of Brandy or Spain, all
"dealings" in any "relevant securities" of that company (including by
means of an option in respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any
such "relevant securities") must be publicly disclosed by no later
than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the London business day following the
date of the relevant transaction. This requirement will continue
until the date on which the offer becomes, or is declared,
unconditional as to acceptances, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or
on which the "offer period" otherwise ends. If two or more persons
act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether
formal or informal, to acquire an "interest" in "relevant securities"
of Brandy or Spain, they will be deemed to be a single person for the
purpose of Rule 8.3.
Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Takeover Code, all "dealings"
in "relevant securities" of Brandy or Spain by Brandy or Spain, or by
any of their respective "associates", must be disclosed by no later
than 12.00 noon (London time) on the London business day following
the date of the relevant transaction.
A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose
"relevant securities" "dealings" should be disclosed, and the number
of such securities in issue, can be found on the Takeover Panel's
website at http://www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk/.
"Interests in securities" arise, in summary, when a person has long
economic exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the
price of securities. In particular, a person will be treated as
having an "interest" by virtue of the ownership or control of
securities, or by virtue of any option in respect of, or derivative
referenced to, securities.
Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Takeover Code, which can
also be found on the Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to
whether or not you are required to disclose a "dealing" under Rule 8,
you should consult the Panel."
