Intershop expands framework agreement with Merck

Jena, July 20, 2011 - Intershop Communications AG, supplier of integrated
e-commerce solutions, has expanded the existing framework agreement with
pharmaceutical and chemical group Merck to include further licenses as well
as consulting and support services. The services will run for a period of
three years with a total volume around the mid seven-digit euro range. Any
profit generated from license sales will be recognized in income in
the third quarter of 2011.

Merck has been one of Intershop's Platinum Accounts for over two years.
This expansion is proof of the excellent working relationship between the
partners and also of the strategic importance of the 'Merck Chemical
Portal'. The business customer online platform has been successfully
operating since 2007 and is based on Intershop software.
