Pursuant to section 21 para. 1 sentence 1 WpHG EuroChem A.M. Limited,
Limassol, Cyprus, notified us on 13 April 2009 that their percentage
of voting rights in K+S Aktiengesellschaft, Kassel, Germany, fell
below the thresholds of 5% and of 3% on April 09, 2009 and amounted
to 0.01% (7,666 voting rights) as per the end of this date.

Pursuant to section 21 para. 1 sentence 1 WpHG EuroChem International
Holding B.V., Amsterdam, The Netherlands, notified us on 14 April
2009 that their percentage of voting rights in K+S
Aktiengesellschaft, Kassel, Germany, exceeded the threshold of 10% on
April 09, 2009, and amounted to 11.02% (18,180,407 voting rights) as
per the end of this date.

The reason for these notifications is a transfer of shares from
EuroChem A.M. Limited to its sister company EuroChem International
Holding B.V. This has triggered notification requirements for
EuroChem A.M. Limited and EuroChem International Holding B.V.
However, the transfer did not affect that the voting rights from the
shares are attributed pursuant to Section 22 para. 1 sentence 1 no. 1
WpHG to the joint direct and indirect parent companies of the
notifying companies. Consequently, this share transfer does not
obligate The Bank of N.T. Butterfield & Son Limited, Butterfield
Trust (Bermuda) Limited, Linetrust PTC Ltd., Linea Ltd., MCC Holding
Limited and OJSC MCC EuroChem to issue a new notification pursuant to
Section 21 para. 1 sentence 1 WpHG.
