The members of the Board of Management receive cash remuneration, stock options under the technotrans AG stock options plan and certain non-cash benefits for their activities. The overall structure and the level of the cash remuneration are laid down by the Supervisory Board's Personnel Committee.
The cash remuneration comprises a fixed basic salary and a variable remuneration component. The level of the variable remuneration is dependent on the attainment of the overall company target of "consolidated net income according to IFRS".

The regular payments to the Board of Management (fixed) include payments by the company for defined contribution plans totalling € 37 thousand (2005: € 41 thousand, 2004: € 47 thousand).
The Shareholders' Meeting of May 5, 2006 resolved that the disclosure of the remuneration of each individual member of the Board of Management pursuant to Section 285 Para. 1 No. 6 a) Sentences 5 to 9 of German Commercial Code shall not be made for five years.
