The exercise date of the options is March 11. <\/p>\n<p> Von Bomhard told an investor conference Thursday that Buffett would hold a stake &#8220;north of 7% and south of 10%&#8221; in Munich Re if exercising those options. Buffett already owns a stake of slightly above 5% in Munich Re. <\/p>\n<p>   With or without exercising the options, Buffett would be Munich Re&#8217;s largest shareholder, von Bomhard told investors. <\/p>\n<p> He added that the company likes Buffett as a big, or anchor shareholder, and that there&#8217;s always been contact between Buffett and Munich Re. <\/p>\n<p>   -By Ulrike Dauer, Dow Jones Newswires; +49 69 29725 500; ulrike.dauer@dowjones.com<\/p>\n<p class=\"textBodyBlack\"><a name=\"comments\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Share Investor Links<\/span><\/a><a name=\"comments\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareinvestorblog.com\/\">Share Investor Blog<\/a> &#8211; Stockmarket &amp; Business commentary<br \/>Discuss this topic @<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareinvestorforum.com\/\"> Share Investor Forum<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/shareinvestorforum.com\/ucp.php?mode=register&amp;sid=450a61250472e03fa25c205c9c1723f1\"><strong>Register<strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/a> free<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/shareinvestorforum.com\/viewtopic.php?f=36&amp;t=140&amp;p=1013#p1013\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Download the 2009 Warren Buffett Letter &amp; 2009 Annual Report to Berkshire Hathaway Shareholders<\/span><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/shareinvestorforum.com\/viewtopic.php?f=36&amp;t=140&amp;start=15#p960\"><span><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Download the 1977 &#8211; 2009 Warren Buffett Letter&#8217;s to Berkshire Hathaway Shareholders<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Recommended Amazon Reading<\/span><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var addthis_pub=\"shareinvestor\";<\/script><\/p>\n<table id=\"searchResults\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"clsEven\">\n<td class=\"tdimage\"><a href=\"http:\/\/astore.amazon.com\/shareinvestorbookstore-20\/detail\/1439149372\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ecx.images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41qXBx8NLxL._SL75_.jpg\" alt=\"Warren Buffett's Management Secrets: Proven Tools for Personal and Business Success\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td class=\"tddescription\"><a href=\"http:\/\/astore.amazon.com\/shareinvestorbookstore-20\/detail\/1439149372\">Warren Buffett&#8217;s Management Secrets: Proven Tools for Personal and Business Success<\/a> by <span class=\"by\">Mary Buffett<\/span><br \/>Buy new:        $16.50       \/ Used from:        $13.20<br \/><span class=\"availability\">Usually ships in 24 hours<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"clsOdd\">\n<td class=\"tdimage\"><a href=\"http:\/\/astore.amazon.com\/shareinvestorbookstore-20\/detail\/0060555661\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ecx.images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41rcIrKhYiL._SL75_.jpg\" alt=\"The Intelligent Investor: The Definitive Book on Value Investing.
