7. Income Tax

In Greece, the results reported to the tax authorities by an entity are provisional and subject to revision until such time as the tax authorities examine the books and records of the entity and the related tax returns are accepted as final. Therefore, entities remain contingently liable for additional taxes and penalties, which may be assessed upon such examination. The tax authorities have not audited the Bank and the subsidiaries for the following years:

T Bank SA 2008 - 2009
T Leasing SA 2006 – 2009
ASPIS Insurance Brokerage SA 2007 – 2009
T Funds SA 2007 – 2009
T Credit SA 2007 – 2009
T Stegastika SA 2008 – 2009

Tax losses for 2008 and 2009 can offset future taxable profits until 2013 and 2014 respectively.

Effective tax rate for the Group, for the period ending at 30th September 2010, is estimated to 2% whereas as at 30th September 2009 was 26%.

The difference is mainly due to the fact that the Bank since the fourth quarter of 2009 has stopped recognizing deferred tax asset regarding tax losses. During the first semester of 2009 though, it had recognized deferred tax asset on tax losses. If it hadn't recognized deferred tax asset in the first semester of 2009, the effective tax rate for the Group would have been 0.6% for 2009.

The item of income tax € 2,041 thousand includes a tax expense of previous years amounted € 1,892 due to the withholding tax on Greek bonds and bonded loans which is not returnable in case of tax losses.

In accordance with article 5 of Law 3845/2010 a special tax was imposed to legal entities for social responsibility purposes and is calculated on the total income for fiscal year 2010.The amount for the special tax contribution for the Group recognized in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine month period amounting to € 144 thousand.

The nominal tax rate for the year 2010 arises to 24%.
