OPAP S.A., following the announcement of 14/11/2005, informs the investment public that the relevant amendments on the regulations of the game PAME STIHIMA have been published on the Government Gazette on 16/11/2005 regarding:

• The introduction of additional ?in play? betting, providing the ability to place bets during the games? live TV broadcast.

• The introduction of additional 'over/under' type of betting, that is the forecast of excess or not of arithmetic points during a sports event (e.g. goals pointed in a football match)

• The introduction of other sporting events, such as tennis, volleyball, polo and handball

• The expansion of the betting events with the introduction of additional motor sports and non-sporting events (such as betting on financial and cultural events, the selection of which will take place prior to approval by OPAP S.A.)

The implementation of the above amendments is immediate and, in combination with the increase in the target payout from 60% to 66% already successfully applied since early July, will further contribute to the revival of the game.
