Montabaur, November 28, 2007. United Internet AG (ISIN DE0005089031) 
today acquired a parcel of shares in Versatel AG and now holds a 
total of 20.05% of the capital stock of Versatel AG, Berlin. For a 
part of the acquired shares, amounting to 0.55% of capital stock, the
completion of the transaction is conditional on the approval of the 
German Federal Cartel Office. The average price per share amounts to 
EUR 14.46.
Prior to Versatel´s IPO, and also subsequently, United Internet had 
held talks with Versatel´s main shareholder with regard to acquiring 
an interest in the company. However, these talks did not lead to any 
deal.
With this equity acquisition United Internet is pursuing a strategic 
positioning as part of the expected further consolidation of the 
German DSL market. United Internet is keeping its options open, also 
with regard to a further increase in its stake in Versatel AG.
