The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. ——————————————————————————– NorCom filing application for transfer to regulated stock market Munich, October 16, 2002 – The Supervisory Board and Management Board of NorCom Information Technology AG have jointly passed a resolution providing for the company to apply for transfer to the regulated stock market and withdrawal from the Neuer Markt. An application to this effect was filed with Deutsche Börse AG today. Subject to Deutsche Börse’s approval, NorCom is seeking a listing in the regulated market for the first time as of the beginning of November. This change of segment marks a further step in NorCom’s endeavors to strategically optimize its internal processes. Thus, the planned listing in the regulated market will immediately result in a substantial reduction in direct and indirect costs, including mainly external service providers. In addition, internal accounting activities will be returned to a cost-efficient level. Even after joining the regulated market, NorCom will remain committed to active investor relations going beyond the minimum statutory requirements for corporate communications and transparency.
