Orientierungssatz
Late filed argument exceptionally admitted despite causing adjournment of the oral proceedings (reasons 7.1 to 7.5).
Unidentified "prior art" cited in the patent does not form part of the state of the art within the meaning of Article 54(2) EPC 1973 and cannot be used for basing an assessment of inventive step (reasons 6.4).
Remission for consideration of new prior art documents.
