8.1 - Contingencies
Management is confi dent that balance sheet provisions for known
disputes in which the Company is involved are suf cient to ensure
that these disputes do not have a material impact on assets or
income. In particular, suffi cient provisions have been set aside to
cover the potential consequences of a current dispute in Belgium
involving former senior executives and managers of the Company.
8.2 - Pension accruals
The Company has various obligations towards its current and retired
senior executives and managers. Following an actuarial valuation
performed in 2009, the provision for these obligations was increased
to EUR 32million.
The Company applied the corridor method to actuarial gains and
losses arising from this valuation (see Accounting Principles). At
December31, 2009, actuarial gains and losses totalled EUR4million
and the amount to be recognised in the income statement over
10years came to EUR 1million.
