Notes to the condensed consolidated and company interim financial statements

1. General information

These financial statements include the company financial statements of the company LAMDA Development S.A. (the "Company") and the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (together "the Group") for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. The names of the subsidiaries are presented in note 7 of these financial statements. The annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 of the Group's subsidiaries are available on the website address www.lamdadev.com.

The main activities of the Group comprise investment, development, leasing and maintenance of innovative real estate projects.

The Group operates in Greece, as well as in other neighbouring Balkan countries mainly Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro and the Company's shares are listed on the Athens Stock Exchange.

The Company is incorporated and domiciled in Greece. The address of its registered office is 37 A Kifissias Ave., 15123, Maroussi with the Number in the General Electronic Commercial Registry: 3379701000 and its website address is www.lamdadev.com. The Company Consolidated Lamda Holdings S.A., which is domiciled in Luxembourg, is the main shareholder of the Company as at 30.09.2017 with interest held at 50.87% of the share capital and therefore the Group's financial statements are included in its consolidated financial statements.

The Group activities, and consequently its revenues are not expected to be substantially impacted by seasonal fluctuations.

These condensed consolidated and Company interim financial statements of LAMDA Development SA have been approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on November 29, 2017.

2. Basis of preparation and summary of significant accounting policies

2.1. Basis of preparation

These consolidated and company financial statements have been prepared by Management in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and Interpretations by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as they have been adopted by the European Union, and specifically in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". These consolidated and company financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 which are available on the website address www.lamdadev.com.

The accounting principles that have been used in the preparation and presentation of these interim financial statements are in accordance with those used for the preparation of the Company and Group annual financial statements as of December 31, 2016.

These consolidated and company financial statements present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company has plans in place to avoid material disruptionsto its operations and available financial resources to meet its operating requirements. In this respect Management has concluded that (a) the going concern basis of preparation of these financial statements is appropriate, and (b) all assets and liabilities are appropriately presented in accordance with the Company's accounting policies.

On that basis, the following specific matters may impact the operations of the Group in the foreseeable future:

Macroeconomic conditions in Greece

The imposition of capital controls has created an uncertain economic situation, which may affect the Group's business, financial condition and prospects. The Group's operations in Greece are significant and the current macroeconomic conditions may affect the Group as follows:

  • Decrease in consumption may impact the amount of shop sales in the shopping centers.
  • Possible failure of tenants to fulfil their obligations due to either a reduction in their operating activities or instability of the local banking system.
  • Possible further decrease in the fair value of the Group's investment property.

Despite the aforementioned uncertainties, the Group's operations continue without any disruption; however Management is not able to accurately predict the likely developments in the Greek economy and its impact on the Group activities.

LAMDA MALLS SA – transfer of 31.7% in participations

The Company in accordance with its strategy towards strengthening its position in the real estate sector, has signed an agreement with Värde Partners for the participation in the share capital of the newly established subsidiary company LAMDA MALLS SA, which holds the shares of LAMDA Domi S.A. and Pylea S.A. The above mentioned companies are owners of Golden Hall and Mediterranean Cosmos Shopping Centersrespectively. In accordance with the agreement, on 1.6.2017 Värde (through its wholly owned subsidiary Wert Blue SarL) paid the amount of €61.3m for the acquisition of 31.7% of LAMDA MALLS S.A. whereas the price has been adjusted upwards by €2.4m due to the companies' profitability during the period of time from the signing of the agreement until its completion.

"The Mall Athens" – LAMDA OLYMPIA VILLAGE SA

In July 2017, the Company signed an agreement with "IRERE PROPERTY INVESTMENTS LUXEMBOURG" former "HSBC PROPERTY INVESTMENTS LUXEMBOURG SARL" for the transfer from IRERE and acquisition of the 50% of the share capital of LAMDA OLYMPIA VILLAGE S.Α. by the Company. The Company now holds the 100% of LOV share capital. The total value for the 100% of the Shopping Center "The Mall Athens", amounts to €381.2m. Taking into consideration the bank loan of €193m, the liabilities and other assets of LAMDA OLYMPIA VILLAGE SΑ (hereinafter "LOV") owner of The Mall Athens, the Company paid the amount of €85m for the acquisition of the 50% of LOV share capital. The net asset value of 50% of LOV at the date of the acquisition amounts to €92m (note 7).

As described in detail in note 16 "Contingent liabilities and assets", in January 2014, the Hellenic Council of State approved the petition for annulment of Codified Law 3207/2003, according to the provisions of which the Olympic Press Village (or "Olympiako Chorio Typou") and the Commercial and Leisure Centre "The Mall Athens" were constructed. This decision by the Hellenic Council of State has no direct impact on the operations of "The Mall Athens" and it is anticipated that the operations will continue unhindered for the foreseeable future. Management has assessed the required actions that have been indicated by the Group's legal advisors as imposed following the decision in order to cope with this situation and therefore has undertaken already all necessary actions to this direction. The completion of the above mentioned procedure, which of course requires the effective contribution of the involved competent public services, will safeguard the full and unhindered operation of the Shopping Center.

The factors above have been taken into account by Management when preparing the financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2017. In this uncertain economic environment, management continually assesses the situation and its possible future impact to ensure that all necessary actions and measures are taken in order to minimize any impact on the Group's Greek operations. In note 3 "Financial risk management" of the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2016, there is information on the approach of the total risk management of the Group, as well as on the general financial risk that the Group faces on an ongoing basis.

30 September 2017

These consolidated and Company condensed interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the investment property, the financial instruments held at fair value through profit or loss and the derivative financial instruments which are presented at fair value.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in the process of applying the group's accounting policies. In addition, the use of certain estimates and assumptions is required that affect the balances of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at date of preparation of the financial statements and the amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on the best knowledge of management in relation to the current conditions and actions, the actual results can eventually differ from these estimates. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in note 4 of the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2016.

2.2. Accounting principles

Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued that are mandatory for periods beginning on or after 1.1.2017. The Group's evaluation of the effect of these new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations is as follows:

Standards and Interpretations effective for the current financial year

IAS 7 (Amendments) "Disclosure initiative"

These amendments require entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities.

IAS 12 (Amendments) "Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses"

These amendments clarify the accounting for deferred tax assets for unrealised losses on debt instruments measured at fair value.

Standards and Interpretations effective for subsequent periods

IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" and subsequent amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

IFRS 9 replaces the guidance in IAS 39 which deals with the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities and it also includes an expected credit losses model that replaces the incurred loss impairment model used today. IFRS 9 establishes a more principles-based approach to hedge accounting and addresses inconsistencies and weaknesses in the current model in IAS 39. The Group is currently investigating the impact of IFRS 9 on its financial statements.

IFRS 9 (Amendments) "Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments allow companies to measure particular prepayable financial assets with so-called negative compensation at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income if a specified condition is met—instead of at fair value through profit or loss. The Group cannot early adopt the amendments as they have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

IFRS 15 has been issued in May 2014. The objective of the standard isto provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability within industries, across industries, and across capital markets. It contains principles that an entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognised. The underlying principle is that an

30 September 2017

entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Group is currently investigating the impact of IFRS 15 on its financial statements.

IFRS 16 "Leases" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

IFRS 16 has been issued in January 2016 and supersedes IAS 17. The objective of the standard is to ensure the lessees and lessors provide relevant information in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. The Group is currently investigating the impact of IFRS 16 on its financial statements.

IAS 40 (Amendments) "Transfers of Investment Property" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

The amendments clarified that to transfer to, or from, investment properties there must be a change in use. To conclude if a property has changed use there should be an assessment of whether the property meets the definition and the change must be supported by evidence. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IAS 28 (Amendments) "Long term interests in associates and joint ventures" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The amendments clarify that companies account for long-term interestsin an associate or joint venture to which the equity method is not applied—using IFRS 9. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRIC 22 "Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018)

The interpretation provides guidance on how to determine the date of the transaction when applying the standard on foreign currency transactions, IAS 21. The Interpretation applies where an entity either pays or receives consideration in advance for foreign currency-denominated contracts. The interpretation has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRIC 23 "Uncertainty over income tax treatments" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019)

The interpretation explains how to recognise and measure deferred and current income tax assets and liabilities where there is uncertainty over a tax treatment. IFRIC 23 applies to all aspects of income tax accounting where there is such uncertainty, including taxable profit or loss, the tax bases of assets and liabilities, tax losses and credits and tax rates. The interpretation has not yet been endorsed by the EU.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014 (2014 – 2016 Cycle)

The amendments set out below describe the key changes to two IFRSs. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU.

IFRS 12 "Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities"

The amendment clarified that the disclosures requirement of IFRS 12 are applicable to interest in entities classified as held for sale except for summarised financial information. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017.

IAS 28 "Investments in associates and Joint ventures"

The amendments clarified that when venture capital organisations, mutual funds, unit trusts and similar entities use the election to measure their investments in associates or joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), this election should be made separately for each associate or joint venture at initial recognition. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

There are no other new standards or amendmentsto standards, which are mandatory for periods beginning during the current period and subsequent periodsthat may have significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

3. Fair value estimation

The Group and the Company use the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of the assets and liabilities by valuation method.

Level 1: based on quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: based on valuation techniques whereby all inputs having a significant effect on the fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly and includes quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities.

Level 3: based on valuation techniques whereby all inputs having a significant effect on the fair value are not observable market data.

The financial instruments that are measured at fair value are the investment property (note 5), the derivative financial instruments (note 13) and the financial instruments held at fair value through profit or loss (note 9).

4. Segment information

The Group is operating into the business segment of real estate in Greece and in other neighbouring Balkan countries. The BoD (which is responsible for the decision making) defines the segments according to the use and of the investment property and their geographical location.

Management monitors the operating results of each segment separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Segment performance is evaluated based on revenue and EBITDA (Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization). It is noted that the Group applies the same accounting policies as those in the financial statements in order to measure the performance of the operating segment. Group financing, including finance costs and finance income, as well as income taxes are monitored on a group basis and are included within the administration segment without being allocated to the profit generating segments.

The investment property includes property operating lease that amounts to €147.5m.

The most significant change for 2017, corresponds to the acquisition of the 50% of LAMDA OLYMPIA VILLAGE SA, amounting to a total value of €381.9m, and change of the consolidation method from equity to full consolidation (see note 7). In addition, during the third quarter of 2017, the Group sold the investment property owned by its subsidiary TIHI EOOD at Levski Blvd in Sofia, Bulgaria. The sale purchase price amounts to €5.15m.

The fair value for all investment property was determined on the basis of its highest and best use by the Group taking into account each property's use which is physically possible, legally permissible and financially feasible. This estimate is based on the physical characteristics, the permitted use and the opportunity cost for each investment of the Group.

30 September 2017

Investment property is valued each semester by independent qualified valuers using the Discounted Cash Flows (DCF) method. The cash flows are based on reliable estimates of future cash flows, supported by the terms of any existing lease and other contracts and (where possible) external evidence such as current market rentsfor similar propertiesin the same location and condition, and using discount ratesthat reflect each tenant's sector (food and restaurants, electronic appliances, apparel etc.) as well as the current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of the cash flows. In some cases, where necessary, the valuation is based on the Comparative Method. The aforementioned valuation methods come under hierarchy level 3 as described in note 3.

More precisely, taking into consideration the investment property of "The Mall Athens" of the joint venture LAMDA OLYMPIA VILLAGE SA, which is disclosed in the financial statements using the equity method as described in note 7), 91% of total fair value of the Group's investment property relates to Shopping Centres and 4% to Office Buildings. For both type of property, the valuation was determined using the DCF approach with the following significant assumptions:

  • With regards to the Shopping Centres, The Mall Athens has a freehold status, Mediterranean Cosmos is held under a lease that expires in Q4 2035 and Golden Hall has a 87 year exploitation period. As far as the office buildings are concerned, they are owned by the Group.
  • In short, the yields according to the latest valuations at June 30, 2017 are as follows:
Yield
Malls
The Mall Athens 7,6%
Med.Cosmos 10,8%
Golden Hall 8,9%
Office buildings
Cecil, Kefalari 9,0%
Kronos Building, Maroussi 8,8%

In relation to the annual consideration that every tenant of the Malls pays (Base Consideration – fixed consideration that is set in the contract), it is adjusted annually according to the CPI plus a slight indexation which is differentiated between the tenants. The average CPI that has been used over the period is 1.75%.

The most significant valuation assumptions of the investment property are the assumption regarding the future EBITDA (including the estimations related to the future monthly lease) of each investment property as well as the estimated yields that are applied for the investment property's valuation. As a result, the table below presents two basic scenarios in relation to the impact on the valutions of the following investment properties of an increase in the yields by 25 basis points (+ 0,25%) or a decrease in EBITDA by €1m per Shopping Mall.

Interest held in the Group Yield EBITDA/NOI
(all amounts in € thousands) +0,25% -€1 mln.
The Mall Athens -6,5 -7,0
Med.Cosmos -4,1 -10,1
Golden Hall -8,8 -14,3
Malls -19,4 -31,3
Cecil, Kefalari -0,4
Kronos Building, Maroussi -0,2
Office buildings -0,6
Total -20,0 -31,3

The above mentioned valuations of the investment property as at 30 June 2017 have taken into account the uncertainty of the current economic conditions in Greece (as described in note 2.1). It has to be noted that this situation is unprecedented and therefore the consequences cannot be accurately assessed at this point. In this context, we note that despite the existence of an increased level of valuation uncertainty, the values reported provide the best estimate for the Group's investment property. Management will observe the trends that will be formed in the investment property market in the next few months since the complete impact of the consequences of the economic situation in Greece may affect the value of the Group's investment property in the future.

On the amount of €756.8m of the total investment property, there are real estate liens and pre-notices over these assets.

Out of these twenty-two (22) appeals: ten (10) were initially rejected by the second instance court, but LOV filed appeals on points of law before the Council of State, eight (8) of which were accepted, whereas the rest two (2) were rejected due to the amount of the litigation. Hence, these eight (8) cases were referred back before the Administrative Court of Appeals and, following their hearing on 06.02.2017, a positive decision has been issued on four (4) of them, thus annulling the respective audit deeds (amounting approximately to €1m), while the rest four (4) decisions are still pending. Another twelve (12) appeals have been rejected; LOV has filed appeals on points of law for six (6) of them, where such an appeal is allowed taking into account the amount of the litigation, the scheduling of their hearing being pending. Consequently out of the forty (40) recourses seventeen (17), amounting totally to €6.8m, have been irrevocably accepted in favor of LOV, while another nine (9), amounting totally to €480k, have been irrevocably rejected in favor of the Hellenic Republic.
  • During the whole term of this litigation, LOV has been obliged to pay to the Hellenic Republic the amount of approximately €836k during 2005, €146k during 2006, €27k during 2007, €2.9m in 2012, €2.2m in 2013, €983k in 2014 and €235k in 2015 (which are registered in the property transfer tax). Until 30.09.2017 the Company has been refunded for the amount of €1.3m based on the recourses that have been irrevocably accepted. If the outcome of the case is negative, according to the share sale agreement between the Municipality of Amaroussion and the Company, the total obligation will be on the Municipality, as it relates to transfers of properties before the acquisition of LOV's shares.
  • Additionally, LOV had to pay for the transfer of specific real property in the past (on 2006), property transfer tax of approximately €13,7m, reserving its rights with regard to this tax and finally taking recourse to the administrative courts against the silent rejection of its reservations by the competent Tax Authority. In 2013 the said recourse was accepted and the re-calculation

of the owed property tax was ordered, which led to the returning to LOV of an amount of approximately €9,5m. Further to appeals on points of law filed by both parties, the Council of State rejected LOV's appeal and accepted the Hellenic Republic's appeal; consequently the case was referred back to the Administrative Court of Appeals, which postponed the issue of a final decision and obliged on one hand the Tax Office of N. Ionia to carry out an audit in order to determine the market value of the property and to compile a report and LOV on the other hand to adduce counter-evidence, if it holds comparable data from appraisals of similar property offers. After the submission of the respective information, the case was heard before the Administrative Court of Appeals on 02.10.2017 and the decision is still pending.

  • Five (5) petitions for annulment have been filed and were pending before the Council of State related to LOV, regarding the plot of land where the Maroussi Media Village (or "Olympiako Chorio Typou") and the Commercial and Leisure Centre "The Mall Athens" were built. More specifically: the first of these petitions was heard on 3.5.2006 and the decision no 391/2008 of the Fifth Chamber of the Council of State was issued committing for the Plenary Session of the Council of State. Further to successive postponements the case was heard on 05.04.2013. By virtue of its decision No 376/2014, the Plenary Session accepted the said petition and the Court annulled the silent confirmation by the competent planning authority of the Ministry of Environment, Planning & Public Works (namely, DOKK) that the studies of the project submitted to such authority were compliant with article 6 paragraphs 1 and 2 of Law 3207/2003. The Council of State annulled the aforementioned act, because it identified irregularities of a procedural nature in the issuance of the licenses required for the project. In light of such nature of the identified irregularities, it is estimated that they may be rectified, and LOV has already initiated the procedure required further to the issuance of the said decision. The completion of the above mentioned procedure, which of course requires the effective contribution of the involved competent public services, will safeguard the full and unhindered operation of the Shopping Center.
  • The second petition was heard on 02.04.2014, further to successive postponements, and the Fifth Section issued its Decision No. 4932/2014, whereby the Court cancelled the proceedings. The hearing for the third and fourth petitions has been set for 2.03.2018 (again, further to successive postponements). The third and fourth petitions for annulment seek the annulment of a series of pre-approvals and operating licenses respectively, issued by the Municipality of Maroussi to a number of stores operating in the aforementioned Shopping Center, on the basis that the law on which said pre-approvals and licenses were issued is not compatible with the provisions of the Constitution. In light of the aforementioned decision of the Court's Plenary Session, the Company's legal advisors believe that the third and fourth petitions for annulment will be accepted. The fifth petition for annulment, which was heard on 21.03.2017, will probably be rejected on the groundsthat thematter falls outside of the Court'sjurisdiction (since the decision under annulment is the decision of the Board of Directors of OEK (Worker's Housing Organization or "Organismos Ergatikis Katoikias") which is not an enforceable administrative act).
  • In addition to the above, LOV sold the office building "ILIDA BUSINESS CENTRE" to the company "EUROBANK Leasing S.A." on 26.06.2007. "EUROBANK Leasing S.A." entered into a financial lease agreement with "Blue Land S.A." regarding the said office building. The respective deed of transfer includes a provision specifying that, if either of the first two petitions isirrevocably accepted on the groundsthat Law 3207/2003 is not compatible with the provisions of the Constitution, then the transaction shall be reversed by reinstatement of the property to its original status, in which case the buyer "EUROBANK Leasing" shall be entitled to the full buying price and the ownership of the office building shall return to LOV. Two opposing lawsuits have been filed; the first one was filed by the Company and LOV and is seeking to have identified that the conditions for the said provision have not been fulfilled and the second one was filed by "EUROBANK Leasing S.A." (and "BLUE LAND S.A." intervened as a third party in the proceedingsto support the validity of EUROBANK's claims) and is seeking to have identified that the conditions have been met and that the purchase price be returned to "EUROBANK Leasing S.A.". The case was heard (further to postponement) on 11.10.2016. The Multimember First Instance Court issued decision No, 1522/2017 (which was delivered at 13.7.2017), whereby the Company's and the LOV's lawsuit was rejected and the opposing lawsuit filed by Eurobank Leasing was partially accepted.

The Company and LOV filed appeal Νo. 572531/504467/2017, the hearing of which has been set for 19.04.2018. "EUROBANK Leasing S.A." also filed an appeal (Νo. 573006/50450/2017), set to be heard on 03.05.2018, and "BLUE LAND S.A." intervened again in favour of Eurobank Leasing; pursuant to the Company's legal counsels' assessment, which is also based on the opinions of Professors of the Athens University, the said provision of the deed of transfer is not applicable, as it regulates issues that may not be rectified, whereas the Council of State identified matters that could be remedied. It should be noted that, in any case, the Company (and LOV) will not be obligated to disburse any of the amounts set out in the Court's ruling until a final decision is issued by the Court of Appeals.

Further, pursuant to the aforementioned deed of transfer, in the event of any other ruling of the Council of State regarding the said Law's non-compatibility to the Constitution, including the acceptance of the third, fourth or fifth petition, then the purchaser will be entitled to repudiate the contract and demand restoration of the aforementioned actual damages, following the lapse of a period of two years from the date of issuance of the decision on the annulment petitions, on condition that any defects or deficiencies resulting from said decision have not been remedied in the meantime.

  • Contractor "MICHANIKI SA" undertook a significant part of the construction works for the "Mediterranean Cosmos" shopping centre in Pylaia, Thessaloniki. Both "PYLAIA SA", a subsidiary of the Company, and "MICHANIKI SA" have filed actions and counter-actions against each other, which were jointly heard on 1.4.2009. The Athens Multimember Court of 1st Instance issued decision 8172/2009 according to which the actions of "PYLAIA SA" were rejected whereas an expert was appointed in relation to the actions of "MICHANIKI SA". "PYLAIA SA" appealed against that decision and the hearing of the appeal took place, following postponements, on 28.02.2013 before the Athens Court of Appeal. The Athens Court of Appeal issued decision No. 3977/2013 which rejected the appeal of "PYLAIA S.A.". The Company submitted an appeal on points of law before the Supreme Court, which was heard on 11.05.2015. The Court accepted the appeal of "PYLAIA S.A." by means of its Decision No 208/2016, despite the negative opinion issued by the Judge Rapporteur, and sent the case back to the Court of Appeals for a new hearing. That hearing in the Court of Appeals has been set for 26.10.2017, when it was postponed for 07.02.2019. Moreover, on 28.12.2010 the "PYLEA SA" filed lawsuits No 13132, 13134 and 13129/2010 before the Athens Multi-Member 1 st Instance Court against "MICHANIKI SA", the hearing of which took place on 13.02.2013, following a postponement on 14.11.2012. Such lawsuits are identical to the previously presented lawsuits, save that they have been filed jointly with the company "EUROHYPO S.A." to address the event where the Court rules that "PYLAIA SA" is not entitled to file these lawsuits in its name. For this reason, the hearing of such lawsuits was cancelled on 13.02.2013 and had been reenacted so that those lawsuits were scheduled to be heard on 18.03.2015, when hearing was postponed for 25.01.2017 and then again cancelled. A new hearing for these lawsuits has been already set for 21.02.2018.

Additionally, further to the submission before the Court of the expert's report, which is favorable to "PYLAIA SA", the hearing of the actions of "MICHANIKI SA" had been set for 27.05.2015 (after postponement of 13.03.2013), but it was cancelled. Moreover, "PYLAIA SA" filed an action against "MICHANIKI SA" on 24.12.2010 for additional compensation from the above causes, the hearing of which had been set, following postponements, on 25.02.2015, but it was cancelled. Finally, "MICHANIKI S.A." filed a new lawsuit seeking compensation for amounts that "PYLAIA S.A." had collected from Alpha Bank by forfeiture of "MICHANIKI S.A." bank bonds. The lawsuit was set to be heard on 28.05.2015, but was postponed for 12.10.2017, when it was cancelled. The amount of total claims of "PYLAIA SA" against "MICHANIKI SA" is €20m (which includes the amount of €2,5m for moral damages), while "MICHANIKI SA" with said actions claims the amount of €37m (including the amount of €10.5m in compensation for moral damages). In any case, the Company's legal advisors believe that the legitimate claims of "PYLAIA SA" against "MICHANIKI SA" significantly exceed the legitimate claims of the latter against "PYLAIA SA".

Furthermore, there are various legal cases of the Group's companies, which are not expected to create material additional liabilities.

Diluted earnings/(losses) per share (in € per share) (0,28) 0,00 0,20 (0,12)

Diluted earnings / (losses) per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. The Company has only one category of dilutive potential ordinary shares i.e. share options. For these share options, a calculation is done to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined as the average annual market share price of the Company's shares) based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the share

options. The difference that arises is added to the denominator as issuance of common shares with no exchange value. Finally, no adjustment is made in the earnings (nominator).

19. Income tax expense

According to tax law, the corporate income tax rate of legal entities in Greece is set at 29% and intragroup dividends are exempt from both income tax, as well as withholding tax provided that the parent entity holds a minimum participation of 10% for two consecutive years.

In addition, the tax rate for the subsidiariesregistered in foreign countries differs from country to country as follows: Greece 29%, Romania 16%, Serbia 15%, Bulgaria 10%, Montenegro 9% and Netherlands 25.5%.

Under Greek tax regulations, an income tax advance calculation on each year's current income tax liability is paid to the tax authorities. Net operating losses which are tax deductible, can be carried forward against taxable profits for a period of five years from the year they are generated.

For the year ended 31 December 2011 and onwards as the Law 4174/2013 (article 65A) currently stands (and as Law 2238/1994 previously provided in article 82), up to and including fiscal years starting before 1 January 2016, the Greek sociιtιs anonymes and limited liability companies whose annual financial statements are audited compulsorily, were required to obtain an 'Annual Tax Certificate', which isissued after a tax audit is performed by the same statutory auditor or audit firm that audits the annual financial statements. For fiscal years starting from 1 January 2016 and onwards, the 'Annual Tax Certificate' is optional, however the Group will obtain such certificate. In accordance with the Greek tax legislation and the respective Ministerial Decisions issued, additional taxes and penalties may be imposed by the Greek tax authorities following a tax audit within the applicable statute of limitations (i.e. in principle five years as from the end of the fiscal year within which the relevant tax return should have been submitted), irrespective of whether an unqualified tax certificate has been obtained from the tax paying company.

Regarding the Greek companies of the Group that are subject to tax certificate, the tax audit for the fiscal year 2016 was completed by PriceWaterhouseCoopers SA and the relevant tax certificate has been issued.

In addition, the Company is being conducted again by the tax authorities for the fiscal year 2012. The Group provides, when considered appropriate, and on a company by company basis for possible additional taxes that may be imposed by the tax authorities. As a result, the Group's tax obligations have not been defined permanently.The total amount of the cumulative provision made for the Group's and Company's unaudited, by the tax authorities, years amount to €0.8m and €0.6m respectively.
