Among other issues, the following points have been agreed: - Team revenues to increase significantly over distributions presently received under the current Concorde Agreement - GPWC will be represented on the SLEC board with three Directors enabling GPWC to contribute its expert knowledge to the sport and to support its long-term success - Current SLEC shareholdings are not anticipated to change significantly, with Bayerische Landesbank, JP Morgan and Lehman Brothers continuing to own a majority of the SLEC shares - Mr. Ecclestone, CEO of Formula One Administration, will continue to run the company as CEO - Commitment by all signatories to an IPO of the company in the short to medium term As the existing Concorde Agreement expires in 2007 an extension of the agreement is part of the overall solution. Definitive agreements are in preparation and targeted to be signed mid-2004 with effect from the 2004 season. Prof. Juergen Hubbert, Chairman of GPWC: "This Memorandum of Understanding incorporates GPWC's core objectives and is in the very best interests of the teams and the fans." Dr. Gerhard Gribkowsky, representing the SLEC shareholders: "With this Memorandum of Understanding we have created a stable and long-term platform for all constituents of the Formula One Sport, most importantly the Teams. At the same time, we have secured the commercial basis for the financial stability of Formula One." Bernie Ecclestone, CEO of FOA: "Obviously my main interest has always been to secure the long-term future of Formula One. With an amended and extended Concorde Agreement about to be signed, and a general consensus on the key issues, I am very optimistic." A joint press conference will be scheduled for mid January 2004. Further details will be announced then.
