In case of oversubscription in the Offer, acceptance would be determined on a proportionate basis in accordance with Regulation 21(6) of the SEBI Takeover Code and hence there is no certainty that all the Shares tendered by the shareholders in the Offer will be accepted.

ii. Acceptance of Shares tendered in the Offer is subject to receipt of the statutory approvals, as

mentioned in paragraph 8.2 on page 46 of this Letter of Offer. In the event, any of the required statutory approvals is refused, the Offer would stand withdrawn in terms of the SEBI Takeover Code. For further details, please refer paragraph 8.2 of this Letter of Offer.

Consequently, the payment of consideration to the shareholders of Kale Consultants Limited whose Shares have been accepted in the Offer as well as the return of the Shares not accepted by the Acquirer may be delayed. In case of delay, due to non-receipt of statutory approvals, as per Regulation 22(12) of the SEBI Takeover Code, SEBI may, if satisfied that the non receipt of approvals was not due to any wilful default or negligence on the part of the Acquirer, grant an extension for the purpose of completion of the Offer subject to the Acquirer paying interest to the shareholders, as may be specified by SEBI.

iv. Shareholders should note that after the last date of withdrawal i.e. Wednesday, November 17,

2010 shareholders who have lodged their acceptances would not be able to withdraw them even if the acceptance of Shares under the Offer and dispatch of consideration gets delayed.

v. The Shares tendered in the Offer will be held in trust by the Registrar to the Offer till the

completion of the Offer formalities, and the shareholders will not be able to trade such Shares. During such period there may be fluctuations in the market price of the Shares.

figures (6) There have been no changes in accounting policies during last three financial years ended on June 30, 2010 Source: Annual Report of Accelya;

4.1.8 Summary of the most significant accounting principles of Accelya, as stated in the annual report for the year ended June 30, 2010, are as follows:

Accounting Principles

The consolidated annual accounts of Accelya have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and their interpretations (IFRIC) as adopted by the European Union (EU-IFRS) and in force as on June 30, 2010. A summary of the most significant accounting principles is as follows: (a) Consolidation principle i) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities over which Accelya exercises control, either directly or indirectly through subsidiaries. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights held by the Accelya Group or other entities that are exercisable or convertible at the end of each reporting period are considered. The income, expenses and cash flows of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated annual accounts from the date of acquisition, which is when the Accelya Group takes control, until the date that control ceases. Control is assumed to exist in the following circumstances:

� when the Parent holds, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, the majority of the voting rights

of another entity; or � when without holding the majority of voting rights, the Parent has the power to govern another

entity, has economic control of this entity and is able to take decisions therein.

ii) Business combinations The Accelya Group applies the purchase method for business combinations. The acquisition date is the date on which the Accelya Group obtains control of the acquiree. The cost of the business combination is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred or assumed, equity instruments issued and any additional consideration contingent on future events or the fulfilment of certain conditions, in exchange for control of the acquiree. The consideration paid excludes all amounts that do not form part of the exchange for the acquired business. Acquisition-related costs are recognised as expenses when incurred. Any excess between the cost of the business combination and the Accelya Group’s share in the fair value of identifiable net assets of the acquiree is recognised as goodwill, while any shortfall is recognised in profit and loss once the cost of the business combination and fair values of the net assets acquired have been duly reconsidered. In transactions under common control, the Accelya Group considers that control over an acquired entity takes place from the date the Parent company or sole equity holder has economic control of this acquired entity and is able to take decisions therein, and the transaction takes effect from that date and not when the transfer of ownership of shares takes place. The investment in 100% of the share capital of the subsidiary Accelya France, SAS was acquired directly by the sole shareholder as part of the business combination and, as agreed at the date of this combination, was formally transferred by this subsidiary to the Parent on September 25, 2007. Since July 1, 2007 (date of acquisition of the companies comprising the Accelya Group from the ADP, Inc. Group), the Parent has economic control over and the power to make decisions in Accelya France SAS. Consequently, the Parent consolidated Accelya France, SAS as of July 1, 2007, recognising at that date the early acquisition of these investments and a liability for the payable to the sole shareholder.

iii) Elimination of internal operations Intragroup balances and transactions and unrealised gains or losses are eliminated on consolidation. Nevertheless, unrealised losses are considered as indicative of impairment of the transferred assets.

iv) Unification in terms of timing and measurement criteria The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adapted to those of the Accelya Group for transactions and other events in similar circumstances. Measures have been taken to ensure the financial statements of subsidiaries with different reporting dates to those of the Parent cover the same period as those of the Parent. The closing date for all subsidiaries is June 30, except for Accelya Servicios S.A. de C.V., Accelya América S.A. de C.V. and ADP Clearing do Brasil, Ltda., which have reporting closes at December 31.

(b) Foreign currency balances and transactions

i) Functional and presentation currency The Accelya Group considers the Euro as its functional and presentation currency as, although a substantial part of its revenue and financial liabilities are in US Dollars, the Euro is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates and the currency in which it expresses its costs and equity items.

ii) Foreign currency balances and transactions Transactions in foreign currency are translated to the functional currency at the foreign exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated to the functional currency at the foreign exchange rate at that date. Gains or losses arising on settlement of transactions in foreign currency and on translation to Euros of monetary assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currency are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash flows from foreign currency transactions have been translated into Euros at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates the cash flows occur. The effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies is recognised separately in the statement of cash flows as effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash held.

iii) Translation of foreign operations The translation to Euros of foreign operations with a functional currency that is not the Euro is based on the following criteria:

� Assets and liabilities, including goodwill and adjustments to net assets deriving from the

acquisition of businesses, including the comparative balances, are translated at the closing rate at each balance sheet date;

� Income and expenses, including the comparative balances, are translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions; and

� Exchange differences arising from application of the above criteria are recognised under translation differences in other comprehensive income.

In the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash flows, including the comparative balances, from subsidiaries and foreign joint ventures are translated to Euros applying the exchange rates at the date of the cash flows. Translation differences relating to foreign operations recognised in other comprehensive income are accounted for as an adjustment in the profit or loss on the sale upon disposal of the aforementioned operations.

(c) Property, plant and equipment i) Assets for own use Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. The cost of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price, after deducting trade discounts and rebates, plus any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, and the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, the obligation for which has been incurred as a consequence of having used the item for purposes other than to render services.

ii) Investments in leased properties Non-current investments in properties leased from third parties are recognised on the basis of the same criteria for property, plant and equipment. Investments are amortised over the lower of their useful lives and the term of the lease contract. The lease term is consistent with that established for recognition of the lease. Provision is made for the estimated carrying amount of the irrecoverable investments in the event that doubts exist that the lease will run for the full term of the contract. Likewise, where applicable, the cost of these investments includes the estimate of the costs of dismantling, removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, the obligations for which the Accelya Group incurs at the end of the contract. Provision is made for the present value of the estimated cost it is expected will be incurred.

iii) Subsequent costs The Accelya Group capitalises the cost of replacing part of an item at the time it is incurred, when it is probable that additional future economic benefits will be generated by the item and cost can be measured reliably. Remaining costs such as repair and maintenance costs are expensed in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as they are incurred.

iv) Depreciation Property, plant and equipment are depreciated by allocating the depreciable amount of an asset on a systematic basis over its useful life. The depreciable amount is the cost of an asset, less its residual value. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately. Land is not depreciated. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the following criteria: Buildings (30 years), Plant and machinery (5-10 years), Information technology equipment (2-4 years), other installations, equipment and furniture (4-10 years), other assets (2-10 years). Accelya Group reviews useful lives and depreciation methods at least at each period end. Changes to initially established criteria are accounted for as a change in accounting estimates.

v) Impairment The Accelya Group evaluates and tests for impairment losses and reversals of impairment losses on property, plant and equipment based on the criteria set out in note (e). (d) Intangible assets

i) Goodwill Goodwill acquired in business combinations is initially recognised as the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Accelya Group's interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary or the joint venture acquired. Negative goodwill arising on an acquisition is recognised directly in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Goodwill is not amortised, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently whenever there is an indication that goodwill may be impaired. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each cash-generating unit (CGU). After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The acquisition of investments and the calculation of their cost was performed simultaneously and jointly in the context of a single transaction with the vendor. The Accelya Group centrally manages the clearing service business and other related services (the Accelya Group’s principal

- 19 -

activity), which are substantially rendered through software and common contractual frameworks. In this regard, the Accelya Group considers that the activities of the various companies comprising the Group are interdependent and therefore, the Accelya Group only considers one CGU, comprising the consolidated Accelya Group, when analysing impairment of the goodwill acquired in the aforementioned business combination. Internally generated goodwill is not recognised as an asset. ii) Intangible assets acquired in business combinations The cost of identifiable intangible assets acquired in business combinations is equivalent to their acquisition-date fair value, to the extent that this value can be measured reliably. Intangible assets associated with existing customer contracts basically comprise the value of the relationships existing between the corresponding company and its customers arising from contractual rights, and are therefore, recognised as intangible assets when they meet the legal-contractual criterion. These items are measured using the market value obtained from commonly accepted measurement criteria based on discounted future cash flows. Finite useful lives have also been considered based on the expiry of contracts signed with these customers.

iii) Software Software is carried at cost, less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Software repair and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred.

iv) Other intangible assets Other intangible assets are carried at cost, less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. v) Useful lives and amortisation rates The Accelya Group assesses whether the useful life of each intangible asset acquired is finite or indefinite. An intangible asset is regarded by the Accelya Group as having an indefinite useful life when there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset will generate net cash inflows. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortised on a straight-line basis in accordance with the following criteria:

� Software acquired in the business combination is amortised on a straight-line basis over the

useful life of the assets estimated at a period of six and a half years. � Other software is amortised on a straight-line basis over the three-year period of expected use. � Customer portfolios, presented under other intangible assets in the consolidated balance sheet

and acquired in the business combination are amortised on a straight-line basis over the term of the associated contracts.

The depreciable amount is the cost or attributed cost (or revalued cost) of an asset less its residual value. The Accelya Group reviews the residual value, useful life and amortisation method for intangible assets at each financial year end. Changes to initially established criteria are accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate. (e) Impairment of non-financial assets subject to amortisation or depreciation The Accelya Group tests whether there are indications of possible impairment losses on non-financial assets subject to amortisation or depreciation to verify whether the carrying amount of these assets exceeds the recoverable amount. Irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment, the Accelya Group also tests goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, and intangible assets not yet available for use for possible impairment at least annually. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An asset’s value in use is calculated based on an estimate of future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset, expectations about possible variations in the amount or timing of those future cash flows, the time value of money, the price for bearing the uncertainty inherent in the asset, and other factors that market participants would reflect in pricing the future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. Negative differences arising from comparison of carrying amounts of assets with their recoverable amounts are expensed.

Recoverable amount is determined for each individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. If this is the case, recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the asset belongs. Impairment losses recognised for CGUs are initially allocated to reduce, where applicable, the goodwill distributed to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each of the assets. The carrying amount of each asset may not be reduced to below the highest of its fair value less costs to sell, its value in use and zero. At the end of each reporting period the Accelya Group assesses whether there is any indication that an impairment loss recognised in prior periods may no longer exist or may have decreased. Impairment losses on goodwill are not reversible. Impairment losses for other assets are only reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to calculate the recoverable amount of the asset. A reversal of an impairment loss for an asset is recognised in profit and loss. However, the reversal of an impairment loss cannot increase the carrying amount of the asset in excess of the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortisation or depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised. A reversal of an impairment loss for a CGU is allocated to the assets, except for goodwill, pro rata with the carrying amounts of those assets. The carrying amount of an asset should not be increased above the lower of its recoverable value and the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortisation or depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised. For the purpose of testing the impairment of goodwill acquired in the business combination, the Accelya Group only considers a single CGU which comprises the consolidated Accelya group.

(f) Leases The Accelya Group has the right to use certain assets through lease contracts. Leases in which the Accelya Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership are classified as finance leases, otherwise they are classified as operating leases. Lease payments under an operating lease, net of any incentives received, are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Accelya Group recognises initial direct costs incurred on operating leases as an expense when incurred. Contingent rent instalments are recognised as an expense when it is probable that they will be incurred.

(g) Financial instruments

i) Classification of financial instruments Financial instruments are classified on initial recognition as a financial liability, financial asset or equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability, a financial asset and an equity instrument as set out in IAS 32 “Financial Instruments: Presentation”. The Accelya Group recognises financial instruments when it becomes party to the contract or legal transaction, in accordance with the terms set out therein. For the purpose of measurement, financial instruments are classified as financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables and financial assets and financial liabilities measured at cost. This classification depends on the characteristics of the financial instrument and the purpose for which it was acquired. Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised using trade date accounting, i.e. when the Accelya Group commits itself to purchase or sell an asset.

ii) Offsetting principles A financial asset and a financial liability can only be offset when the Accelya Group has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts or intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

iii) Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are those which are classified as held for trading or which the Accelya Group has, upon initial recognition, designated as such. A financial asset or financial liability is classified as held for trading if it is:

� Acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing it in the near term; � Upon initial recognition part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that are managed

jointly and for which there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or

- 21 -

� A derivative, except a derivative that has been designated as a hedging instrument and complies with conditions for effectiveness and a derivative that is a financial guarantee contract.

Equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are not classified in this category. Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition or issue are recognised as an expense when incurred. After initial recognition they are measured at fair value through profit and loss. Fair value is not reduced by transaction costs incurred on sale or disposal.

iv) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, other than those classified in other financial asset categories. These assets are recognised initially at fair value, including transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. v) Fair value The fair value is the amount for which an asset can be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. The Accelya Group generally applies the following systematic hierarchy to determine the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities:

� Firstly, the Accelya Group applies the price quotations from the most advantageous active market

to which it has immediate access, adjusted as necessary to reflect any differences in credit risk between instruments usually traded in that market and the one being valued. The quoted market price for an asset held or liability to be issued is the current bid price and, for an asset to be acquired or liability held, the asking price. If the Accelya Group has assets and liabilities with offsetting market risks, it uses mid-market prices as a basis for establishing fair values for the offsetting risk positions and applies the bid or asking price to the net open position as appropriate.

� When no market prices are available, prices of recent transactions are used, adjusted to current conditions.

� Otherwise, the Accelya Group applies generally accepted valuation techniques using market data as much as possible and, to a lesser extent, specific group data.

vi) Amortised cost The amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability was measured at initial recognition minus principal repayments, plus or minus cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount, and minus any reduction for impairment or uncollectibility. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument or, when appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. For financial instruments, for which the related variable for fees, basis points, transaction costs, discounts or premiums is revised at market rates prior to expected maturity, the amortisation period is the time until the following review of conditions. Cash flows are estimated considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes the fees and interest basis points paid or received by the contract parties, as well as the transaction costs and any other premium or discount. In those cases where the Accelya Group is unable to reliably estimate the cash flows or expected life of a financial instrument, contractual cash flows are used over the full term of the contract.

vii) Impairment and uncollectability of financial assets A financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and that loss event or events has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.

• Impairment of financial assets carried at amortised cost In the case of financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. For variable income financial assets, the effective interest rate is used corresponding to the measurement date under the contractual conditions. The amount of an impairment loss is recognised in profit and loss and may be reversed in subsequent periods if the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment has been recognised. The loss can only be reversed to the limit of the amortised cost of the assets had the impairment loss not been recognised.

viii) Financial liabilities Financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, which are not classified at fair value through profit or loss, are initially recognised at fair value less any transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issue of the financial liability. After initial recognition, liabilities classified under this category are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. (h) Derivative financial instruments The Accelya Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge exposure to currency and interest rate risks arising from its activities. These are initially recognised at fair value, plus, where applicable, directly attributable contracting transaction costs or, less, where applicable, directly attributable issue transaction costs. In accordance with its treasury policy, the Accelya Group does not acquire or hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. However, derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are accounted for as trading instruments. The Accelya Group does not apply the accounting policies related to the hedge accounting for derivative financial instruments, due to the difficulty of fulfilling the requirements for proving their effectiveness established in IAS 39. Consequently, changes in the fair value of these assets are recognised immediately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. (i) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, demand deposits with banks, and other short-term, highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, providing these are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. (j) Employee benefits

i) Termination benefits The Accelya Group recognises termination benefits unrelated to restructuring processes when it is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of current employees before the normal retirement date. The Accelya Group is demonstrably committed to terminating the employment of current employees when a detailed formal plan has been prepared and there is no possibility of withdrawing or changing the decisions made. Indemnities payable over 12 months are discounted at interest rates by reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds and debentures.

ii) Restructuring indemnities Restructuring indemnities are recognised when the Accelya Group has a constructive obligation, i.e. when a detailed and formal restructuring plan has been approved and valid expectations exist among employees either because the restructuring has commenced or has been communicated to employees. Restructuring provisions only include the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring which are not associated with the ongoing activities of the Accelya Group.

iii) Short-term employee benefits The Accelya Group recognises the expected cost of short-term employee benefits in the form of accumulating compensated absences when the employees render service that increases their entitlement to future compensated absences. In the case of non-accumulating compensated absences, the expense is recognised when the absences occur. The Accelya Group recognises the expected cost of profit-

- 23 -

sharing and bonus payments when it has a present legal or constructive obligation to make such payments as a result of past events and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made. iv) Pension Plans Liabilities for pensions and the net cost of pensions are determined using actuarial calculations based on key assumptions including the discount rate, expected rate of return on assets of the plan, estimated salary increases, and mortality rates. The assumption on discount rates takes into account the rates for high quality fixed income investments with the appropriate maturities at the balance sheet date. The expected rate of return on assets of the plan is calculated uniformly using historical long-term rates of return and how the assets are allocated. Key assumptions may vary from actual conditions due to changes in economic and market circumstances and could lead to variations in liabilities for pensions. Any such differences are recognised in equity as actuarial losses or gains. (k) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Accelya Group has a present obligation (legal or implicit) as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account all risks and uncertainties surrounding the amount to be recognised as a provision and, where the time value of money is material, the financial effect of discounting provided that the expenditure to be made each period can be reliably estimated. The discount rate is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The discount rate does not reflect risks for which future cash flow estimates have been adjusted. If it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic resources will be required to settle an obligation, the provision is reversed. The provision is reversed against the profit and loss caption in which the related expense was recognised, and any surplus is accounted for in other income.

(l) Income and expenses Income and expenses are recognised on an accruals basis. Revenue arising from the rendering of services is recognised when, by reference to the stage of completion, it is considered that the service has been substantially rendered, its measurement can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the service will be received. Historical data show that possible customer claims relating to the services rendered by the Accelya Group have had a minimum and immaterial impact. Consequently, the Accelya Group does not make a provision for costs associated with possible customer claims, and expenses such costs when they are known. (m) Income tax Income tax on the profit for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the consolidated taxable profit or consolidated tax loss for the year. Current tax assets or liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be paid to or recovered from the taxation authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax liabilities are the amounts of income taxes payable in future periods in respect of taxable temporary differences, whereas deferred tax assets are the amounts of income taxes recoverable in future periods in respect of deductible temporary differences, the carryforward of unused tax losses, and the carryforward of unused tax credits. Temporary differences are considered to be the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities and their tax base. Current and deferred tax is recognised as income or an expense and included in profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from a transaction or event which is recognised, in the same or a different period, directly in equity, or from a business combination. Income tax deductions granted by public entities are recognised as a reduction in the income tax expense when there is reasonable assurance that the Accelya Group will comply with the conditions attached to the right to deduction. Since 2008 the Accelya Holding World S.L.U. files consolidated income tax returns with its subsidiary, Accelya World, S.L.U. Accelya Holding World S.L.U., as the Parent of the tax group, is responsible for settling consolidated income tax and filing the related declaration. The accrued income tax expense for the companies forming the consolidated tax group is determined taking into account, in

- 24 -

addition to the factors to consider in the case of individual taxation set out previously, the following:

� Temporary and permanent differences arising from the elimination of profits and losses on operations between Accelya Group companies, derived from the process of determining consolidated taxable income.

� Deductions and credits that correspond to each company forming the consolidated tax group; for these purposes, deductions and credits are allocated to the company that carried out the activity or obtained the profit necessary to obtain the right to the deduction or tax credit.

i) Taxable temporary differences Taxable temporary differences are recognised in all cases except where:

� They arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit or tax loss;

� They are associated with investments in subsidiaries and business combinations over which the Accelya Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

ii) Deductible temporary differences Deductible temporary differences are recognised provided that:

� it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised, unless the differences arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit or tax loss.

� they relate to temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and business combinations to the extent that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

Tax planning opportunities are only considered on evaluation of the recoverability of deferred tax assets and if the Accelya Group intends to use these opportunities or it is probable that they will be used. iii) Measurement Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the years when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted and reflecting the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Accelya Group expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed by the Accelya Group at the end of each reporting period to reduce these amounts to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of the deferred tax assets to be utilised. Deferred tax assets which do not meet the above conditions are not recognised in the consolidated balance sheet. At year end the Accelya Group assesses whether deferred tax assets which were previously not recognised already meet the conditions for recognition.

iv) Offset and classification The Accelya Group only offsets current tax assets and current tax liabilities if it has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The Accelya Group only offsets deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities if it has a legally enforceable right and these relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised on the consolidated balance sheet under non-current assets or liabilities, irrespective of the date of realisation or settlement.

(n) Classification of assets and liabilities as current and non-current

The Accelya Group classifies assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet as current and non-current. Current assets and liabilities are determined as follows:

� The Accelya Group classifies an asset as current when it expects to realise the asset or intends

to sell or consume it in its normal operating cycle, it holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading and it expects to realise the asset within 12 months after the reporting date or the asset is cash or a cash equivalent, unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.

� The Accelya Group classifies a liability as current when it expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle, it holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading, the liability is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period or the Accelya Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Financial liabilities which must be settled within 12 months after the reporting period are classified as current, even if they are due to be settled more than 12 months after the reporting period and a refinancing or restructuring arrangement for non-current payments exists which has been finalised subsequent to reporting date and before the consolidated annual accounts have been prepared.

4.1.9 There were no contingent liabilities of Accelya as of June 30, 2010. (Source: Annual Report)

4.1.10 Comparison of results (Consolidated): Results for financial year 2010 compared to financial year 2009: The revenue for the year ended June 30, 2010 was € 52.85 Million (` 3,123.96 Mn.) compared to € 56.95 Million (` 3,366.31 Mn.) in the previous year (decrease of 7.08%). The variation in revenue is due to the decrease in the volumes and prices invoiced for some services. Accelya recorded a profit after tax of € 1.95 Million (` 115.26 Mn.) in the year ended June 30, 2010 compared to € 3.04 Million (` 179.69 Mn.) in the year ended June 30, 2009 (a fall of 35.86%). The decrease is primarily due to decrease in revenue which was partially compensated by lower operating expenses and lower negative exchange rate differences as compared to year ended June 30, 2009. Results for financial year 2009 compared to financial year 2008: Financials for FY 2008 are for the period of 11 months and 21 days ended June 30, 2008 and are not directly comparable with the results for year ended June 30, 2009 The revenue for the year ended June 30, 2009 was € 56.95 Million (` 3,366.31 Mn.) compared to € 54.22 Million (` 3,204.94 Mn.) in the period ended June 30, 2008 (increase of 5%). The increase in revenue is due to the commercialization of new services and success of the existing ones. Accelya recorded a profit after tax of € 3.04 Million (` 179.69 Mn.) in the year ended June 30, 2009 as against € 8.81 Million (` 520.76 Mn.) in the period ended June 30, 2008 (a fall of 65.5%). The decrease is primarily due to exchange rate fluctuation of USD/€.
