Dr Rolando Gennari, member of the Management Board and Chief Financial
Officer of HCI Capital AG, will leave the company with effect from 30 June
2008. Dr Gennari and the Supervisory Board of HCI Capital AG today agreed
to terminate Dr Gennari's employment contract as a member of the Management
Board, by way of mutual consent.

Dr Gennari (48) was a member of the Management Board of HCI Capital AG
since 2005. The subsequent change in the shareholder structure and increase
in MPC Capital’s stake in HCI Capital have altered key parameters. The
Company intends to identify a successor to Dr Gennari as quickly as
possible; concrete talks are already under way. Dr Ralf Friedrichs,
Chairman of the Management Board, will also assume the duties of Chief
Financial Officer during the interim period until a successor has been
appointed.
