                  GERMAN MARITIME SEARCH AND RESCUE SERVICE

                                           ENGLISH SUMMARY

                             Annual Report 2008   Record of Operations

                               In 2008 our rescue craft were called for assistance 2102 times, and our

                           men were able to save 127 lives; another 978 people were freed or protected

                                                                  from serious danger.

                          The number of persons rescued by our rescue units from the initial foundation

                               of the institution on May 29, 1865, has now reached a total of 75.515.

                       In 894 cases not only the crew but also their vessel was salvaged or could be given

                                                    essential assistance during the past year.

                       The above figures do not cover the landing of injured or sick persons from ships or

                                                                  islands in 466 cases.

                                                   Rescue Service Organisation

                           Distributed along the North Sea and Baltic coast of Germany are 54 stations.

                                                   The active fleet is composed as follows:

                     3 Rescue vessels          (26 knots) with daughter-boat and helicopter working platform,

                     17 Rescue vessels        (20-23 knots) with daughter boat,

                     41 Rescue boats          (16-35 knots).

                 All the activities of our rescue fleet are coordinated by our Maritime Rescue Co-ordination

                 Centre  (MRCC) in Bremen which is capable of direct radio communi-cation with each unit.

                    In addition, the MRCC is linked by direct telephone with the Naval Air Arm SAR Centre

                        to facilitate the co-operation with helicopters. In 2008, 206 SAR-operations beyond

                                                               German waters were assisted.

                                                                            Finances

                      Our institution received in 2008 a total of approx. Euro 30,1 Mio., from which

                                      voluntary donations in the amount of Euro 18,3 Mio. consist of:

                                                        75,5 % member contributions and gifts

                                  (including donations from municipal  communities and list collections),

                                                     8,4 % condolence and anniversary donations,

                                                                 4,9 % from collecting boats,

                                                              9,0 % donations of ship owners,

                                               2,2 % voluntary compensations instead of legal fines.
