New York, NY. - U.N. Secretary-General and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Kofi Annan was presented with the keys to his new official car, a BMW 750iL, by Dr. Helmut Panke, Member of the BMW Board (Munich, Germany). The ceremony took place at the United Nations headquarters in New York City. Dr. Panke praised Mr. Annan for his global vision and integrative work: "As a global player and corporate citizen, BMW salutes Mr. Annan's leadership in international politics and world peace."

The extended lease was initiated by BMW's Head of International Direct Sales, Dr. Hans Wieland and his team after intensive discussions with the U.N. Security and Transportation Departments. "We are very proud to welcome the United Nations and its highest ranking diplomat Mr. Annan as our new client," said Dr. Wieland. The BMW 750iL will receive its service at BMW's corporate center, BMW of Manhattan.
