General Price Action for MLC software

"As a result of currency fluctuations over the past few years, the prices of some Program Products have become unaligned when compared between EMEA countries, and IBM is adjusting the prices accordingly. Moreover during the Euro introduction IBM committed not to change local prices during the conversion period from local currencies to the Euro. Now IBM's aim is to better harmonize these prices across the Euro countries, the National currency countries and the Dollar currency countries within EMEA.
IBM is therefore announcing price decreases and increases in the Monthly License Charges for selected zSeries and S/390 Program Products and their features."

Oops, that was the 2006 announcement, here's the 2007 announcement :

"As a result of currency fluctuations over the past few years, the prices of some Program Products have become unaligned when compared between countries in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). In order to better harmonize pricing structures across Euro, National, and Dollar currency countries within EMEA, IBM decided to adjust prices accordingly.
IBM is therefore announcing price decreases and increases in the Monthly License Charges for selected System z, zSeries, and S/390 Program Products and their features."

"The maximum reduction will be 6% in the MLC prices and the maximum increase will be 6% in the MLC prices of selected products."
Effective date : July 1, 2007.
