FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DIRECTORS' REPORT

Presented to the Annual Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of 29 November 2007

Ladies and Gentlemen,

We have the honour to present our annual report to you and submitting our company's financial statements ended 30 June 2007.

1. BUSINESS ACTIVITIES

Mopoli NV holds a share portfolio centred on the tropical plantation and finance sectors.

During the 2006-2007 financial year, the main source of income was the capital gain from the disposal of our Socfm shares.

The eamings from the financial year reached EUR 30,1 million compared to EUR 65 thousand for the previous financial year.

2. INVESTMENTS

The companies in which Mopoli NV is a shareholder have developed as follows:

o SOCIÉTÉ FINANCIÈRE DES CAOUTCHOUCS "SOCFIN" S.A.

On 22 December 2006, Socfin shares were sold for EUR 34.4 million. This disposal generated an income of EUR 29.7 million.

Mopoli NV share the guarantee agreement given by Socfin to ING in the context of the disposal of Caisse Privée Banque. Mopoli NV would contribute up to 12.8% of proceedings that exceed the provision of EUR 6.8 million already included in Socfin's statements. In any case and independently of the current cases, Mopoli NV does not guarantee beyond the sale price of the Socfin shares to the Bolloré group, that is to say EUR 30.4 million.

In addition, and still within the context ofthis agreement, Mopoli NV guaranteed EUR 3.5 million.

o SOCIÉTÉ FINANCIÈRE LUXEMBOURGEOISE "SOCFINAL" S.A. HOLDING

Socfinal, a holding company established under Luxembourg law, has a diversified share portfolio in the "Plantations" and "various holdings" sectors.

On 30 June 2007, the net income reached EUR 7.2 million compared to EUR 4.7 million in June 2006.

The latent capital gains not generated from the long-tenn investment portfolio were valued at EUR 206.1 million on 30 June 2007 compared to EUR 156.8 million on 31 December 2006.

Discounting exceptional events, the 2007 financial year is expected to end with eamings lower than that ofthe previous financial year. As a reminder, 2006 eamings (EUR 66.2 million) were favourably influenced by Socfinasia's distribution of a dividend in kind (Intercultures shares valued at EUR 54.9 million). The 2007 earnings made it possible to pay out a slightly higher dividend.

The unrealized capital gain of Socfinal shares in the Mopoli NV portfolio is EUR 12.6 million.

MOPOLI LUXEMBOURG S.A. HOLDING

4

On 30 June 2007, Mopoli Luxembourg, holding company, made a net profit of EUR 67 000 compared to EUR 3.1 million on 31 December 2006. As a reminder, the previous financial year, ended 31 December 2006 was mainly composed of the capital gain from disposal of Socfin shares.

On 30 June 2007, the shareholder's equity reached EUR 5.9 million compared to EUR 5.8 million as at 31st December 2006.

Mopoli Luxembourg unrealised capital gains in the Mopoli NV portfolio is EUR 5.3 million.

O NORD-SUMATRA INVESTISSEMENTS S.A.

Nord-Sumatra Investissements is a holding company established under Belgian law has a financial share portfolio.

In the context of the implementation of the acquisition of the implementation of Socfin's buyback guarantee described above, in January 2007 Mopoli NV acquired 5 106 Nord-Sumatra Investissements shares in market conditions (EUR 605 per share). These shares were subsequently blocked.

In the same way, the EUR 60 net dividend paid out by Nord-Sumatra Investissements in June 2007 was transfered to a blocked account in compensation for the loss of value that ensued, on the shares themselves.

3. CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS ON 30 JUNE 2007

The consolidated financial statements include the Mopoli NV statements and those of its subsidiary Mopoli Luxembourg, fully consolidated.

During the financial year, the consolidation perimeter was not modified.

At the closing of the financial year, the consolidated earnings of IFRS, group share, after taxes, is EUR 30.1 million, and comes mainly from:

  • operational eamings made up of unconsolidated share dividends (EUR 0.3 million);

  • operational expenses made up of services and various goods (EUR 0.4 million);

  • financial earnings (interest) for EUR 0.6 million;

  • profits from selling Socfin shares (EUR 29.7 million).

The total IFRS consolidated balance sheet is EUR 48.5 million. The variation of equity comes mainly from the disposal of Socfin shares.

The group share, the guarantee agreement given by Socfin to ING in the context of the disposal of Caisse Privée Banque. Therefore, the group would contribute up to 12.8% of proceedings that exceed the provision of EUR 6.8 million already included in Socfin's statements. In any case and independently of the current cases, the group does not guarantee beyond the sale price of the Socfin shares to the Bolloré group, that is to say EUR 30.4 million. In addition, and still within the context of this agreement, the group guaranteed EUR 3.5 million.

4. DIRECTORS' REMUNERATION

Directors' remuneration is regulated by art. 12 ofthe articles of association standing that the Directors fee is equivalent of 10% ofthe distributed profit.

However during the year discussions arose about the exact distribution of the profit. The decision was made that the shareholders will decide about the exact distribution of profits and consequently the exact remuneration for the board of directors during the shareholders meeting. Consequently as per the date of the financial statements there is an uncertainty about the amount to be provisioned for in the annual accounts relating to the board of directors' remuneration. This uncertainty cannot be reliably estimated at year end by the Board of Director's. The amount to be distributed to the board of directors can range from EUR 0 to EUR 2.7 million.

In addition, the directors receive an attendance fee of EUR 200 each per board meeting.

5. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The company is a small holding company without employees. The only activities as per 30 June 2007 are the participation in two available-for-sale investment. The company has no routine business processes and no supervisory Board. The Board of Directors is aware that the company has to comply with the Dutch Corporate Governance Code but has not a complete overview of the current requirements the company has to comply with. The company is studying, with extemal helps, how the Corporate Governance code is applicable taking into account the size and nature of the company.

6. INVESTMENT POLICY

Mopoli NV is a holding company investing in agro industry project.

7. RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES

Business risk I Investment portfolio risk

As investor in tropical agro business projects, the company has to deal with potential high risk. That is why the company is not investing directly in the projects but through well structured listed companies that have developed the know-how in that business and are design to manage the risk.

Litigation

The company is not involved directly in any case. However Mopoli NV has to share the risk of litigation pending in its former historical investment in Socfin. Mopoli NV discloses in this Directors report (below) in numerous appendix of the annual report a detailed update of the cases (see Contingent liabilities) and the guarantee set up to cover the risk (see off balance sheet rights and commitments).

Credit risk

Credit risk is limited due to the nature of the company.

Uquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining cash available for investment opportunities. Mopoli NV manage cash and short term deposit according to the needs. Mopoli NV currently has no liquidity risk.

8. RISKS

••.*** *-

0

-&*~

To date, Société Financière of Champ de Mars (ex Socfin) is involved in the cases consecutive to the sale of Caisse Privée Banque (guaranteed of liabilities) to the BBÜING, described below :

Cilenroc case (provision of EUR 1.6 million in the accounts of Socfin)

a) Following a conviction by Court of appeal in 2004, Socfin paid to Partimmo (ING) the sum of EUR 12.9 million under this case born in 1993. A partial reversal of this judgement pronounced with regard to the termination compensation (EUR 0.3 million) that Partimmo was sentenced to pay. The balance, EUR 12.6 miltion, is definitively acquired under trusteeship, the case being sent back to the Court of Liege for the surplus.

b) In 2005, Socfin had to pay an compensation for additional damage, of EUR 0.9 million. The Court of cassation broke this judgment and sent the case back to the Court of appeal of Liege;

c) Eventually, Socfin called upon the responsibility for the State of Belgium (Ministry of Justice) for the deficiencies and delays of these legal proceedings.

d) 16 October 2007, a summons was addressed to Partimmo (ING), this time at the request of the Comelis family. The purpose of this new case is to repair the damage which would have personally undergone Comelis, due to the fault of Partimmo, following the bankruptcy of Cilenroc. Since the case documents are not yet available, it is difficult to provide an opinion on the ending of this proceeding.

"Sociétés de Liquidité" case (provision of EUR 5.2 million in the accounts pf Socfin)

These two actions also go back to past events (1997). The amount ofthe potential prejudice is EUR 18.6 million, not including possible interests, if convicted. The insurances cover, in theory, an amount reached a maximum to EUR 13.6 million. The difference as well as one excess was provisioned in the Socfin's balance sheet.

Beyond an entrepreneurial risk, and subject to a third-party complaint with regard to the proceedings described above, there are no special risks that the company should have to confront.

9. FORECAST FOR 2007/2008

Earnings will depend on the dividends collected from shares.

The Bolloré group launched a take over bid on Nord Sumatra Investissements' shares that it no longer holds at a price of EUR 545 per share. Mopoli NV as well as its subsidiary Mopoli Luxembourg decided to contribute their 6 080 shares to the bid. The profit from the sale will be paid into the blocked account in the same way as the dividends paid out by Nord-Sumatra (see above).

10. SUGGESTION FOR DIVIDENDS

5 ^ n

Mopoli NV generated operating income during the 2006-2007 financial year.

We suggest that the allocation of these earnings be decided during the Shareholders' meeting so that it can make the decision having considered all the perspectives of the development of the company's activity.

Disclosures

Note 1: Accounting Principles and Methods of Appraisal

A. Corporate information

Palmboomen Cultuur Maatschappij NV (here after referred to as Mopoli NV) is a public limited company governed by Dutch law, subject to all legislative texts applicable to commercial companies in the Netherlands. Its registered offices are located at 13, J.W. Frisolaan, 2517 JS the Hague, and its administrative headquarters are located at 2, Place du Champ de Mars, 1050 Ixelles. The company is listed on Euronext Brussels. Mopoli NV is a holding company investing in agro industry project.

B. Accounting policies

B.1 Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

In application of European Regulation no. 1606/2002 of 19 Juiy 2002 on International Accounting Standards, the consolidated accounts of the Group for the 2006-2007 financial period are draw up in conformity with IFRS (Intemational Financial Reporting Standards) as adopted by the European Union. This reference system includes the Intemational Accounting Standards and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) and its predecessor, the Standard Interpretation Committee (SIC). IFRS 7 has not been early adopted.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for available-forsale investments that have been measured at fair-value.

The board of Directors have authorised the consolidated financial statement for issue on the 26th October 2007.

B.2 Basis of consolidation

Perimeter of consolidation

The companies in which the Group directly or indirectly holds the majority of voting rights (subsidiaries) are consolidated by global integration.

The companies over which the Group exercises a notable influence are accounted for by the equity method.

Intra-group transactions

Reciprocal operations and transactions relating to assets, liabilities, products and charges between consolidated companies are, as a general rule, eliminated from the consolidated accounts. This elimination is performed in its entirety ifthe transaction occurs between two subsidiaries.

Changes in accounting policy and disclosure None

Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions

In the process of applying the group's accounting policies, management has used its judgements and made estimates in determining amounts recognised in the financial statements. The most significant use of judgments and estimates are related to the risk of being requested to activate the guarantee on Socfin dispute and remuneration of board of Directors. The management is not in a position to reliably estimate the probable outcome of those cases.

Errors

IAS 39 requests to value available-for-sale investments at fair value with an impact in equity. This generates a temporary difference in tax value when capital gains are taxable (i.e. Socfinal is incorporated in Luxembourg as Holding 29). Therefore an amount of EUR 423.000 of deferred tax that was erroneously not recognised in last year financial statements has been recorded with the same impact in equity.

Risk Management Policies

Business risk / Investment portfolio risk

As investor in tropical agro business projects, the company has to deal with potential high risk. That is why the company is not investing directly in the projects but through well structured listed companies that have developed the know-how in that business and are design to manage the risk.

Litigation

The company is not involved directly in any case. However Mopoli has to share the risk of litigation pending in its former historical investment in Socfin. Mopoli discloses in this Directors report (below) in numerous appendix of the annual report a detailed update of the cases (see Contingent liabilities) and the guarantee set up to cover the risk (see off balance sheet rights and commitments).

Credit risk

Credit risk is limited due to the nature of the company.

Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining cash available for investment opportunities. Mopoli manage cash and short term deposit according to the needs. Mopoli currently has no liquidity risk.

C. Summary of siflnlftcant accounting poiicies

Conversion ofthe financial statements of foreign companies

The reporting currency ofthe financial statements is the Euro. The working currency of foreign operations is the local currency. The functioning currency is the Euro.

Revenue recognition

Interest revenue is entered as it is received, on accrual basis and applicable interest rate.

Dividends from investment are accounted upon establishment ofthe right ofthe shareholders to receive payment.

Financial charges

The cost includes the interest charged on the debt as well as the income received on cash investments on accrual basis. If applicable, the Group applies the IFRS standards related to borrowing costs.

Income taxes

The Group calculates current taxes on income in compliance with the applicable tax legislation. According to IAS 12 standard "Income Taxes", any temporary difference between the accounting values of the assets and liabilities and their taxes bases will give rise to the computation of a deferred tax, according to the variable carry-forward method, using the tax rate adopted, or substantively-adopted, at balance sheet date.

Available-for-sale financial investments

Available-for-sale financial investments are those which are designated as such or do not qualify to be classified as designated at fair value through profit or loss, held to maturity or loans and advances. They include shares in non-consolidated companies.

Initial value of assets is measured at cost, i.e., generally, at acquisition cost, plus transaction costs.

The fair value of shares in listed companies is the stock exchange price as at balance sheet date while the fair value of the shares of non listed companies is based on generally accepted valuation models like discounted cash flow.

Unrealised variations in fair value are recognised directly in equity. When the shares are disposed, the cumulative gains and losses are transferred from equity to the income statement.

«Bfitttirara^.óN »

If the fair value cannot be reliably determined, the shares are entered at their purchase price. In the event of an objective indication of durable depreciation, an irreversible loss of value is noted against the results.

Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities

Financial assets

A Financial asset (or, where applicable a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised when :

  • the rights to receive cash flow the asset have expired;

  • Mopoli NV retains the right to receive cash flows from the asset, but has assumed an obligation to pay them in full without material delay to a third party under a 'pass through' arrangement; or

  • Mopoli NV has transferred its right to receive cash flows from the asset and either (a) has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When Mopoli NV has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has neither transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the asset is recognised to the extent of the group's continuing involvement in the asset. Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that Mopoli could be required to repay.

Financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

Trade and other debtors

Trade and other accounts payable are current financial assets initially recognized at fair value; this generally corresponds to the nominal value, in the absence of a significant discounting effect. Upon each closing, the accounts payable are appraised at amortized cost, minus any losses in value taking account of any possible risk of non-collection.

Cash assets and cash-equivalents

Cash and cash-equivalents consist of cash in hand, bank balances and short-term deposits in money market instruments. These investments, with maturities less than three months, are easily convertible into cash, and are subject to negligible risks of changes in value and risks of nontransferability.

Segment reporting

No segment reporting is disclosed, since the business segment is the same for all the companies in the Group, i.e., finance, and since the geographical segment is identical as well (Belgium).

Deferred tax liabilities

Deferred tax liabilities reflect the net tax effect of timing differences between the carrying amounts of the customer bases for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

Deferred income tax liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Cash flow statement

The cash flow statement is prepared by using the indirect method. The cash flow statement distinguishes operating, investing and financing activities. When applicable, cash flows in foreign currencies are converted at the average rates during the reporting period. Currency exchange differences are separately presented. Payments and receipts of corporate taxes as well as financial income (dividend, interest) and expenses are includes in cash flows from operating activities.

Cash flows resulting from acquisitions/divestures of financial interests in group companies and subsidiaries are included in cash flows from investments activities, net of cash acquired. Dividend paid are part of the cash flow from financing activities.

Note 15 : Subsequent events

The Bolloré group launched a take over bid on Nord-Sumatra Investissements' shares that it no longer holds at a price of EUR 545 per share. Mopoli NV as well as its subsidiary Mopoli Luxembourg decided to contribute their 6 080 shares to the bid. The profit from the sale will be paid into the blocked account in the same way as the dividends paid out by Nord-Sumatra.

Note 16 : Contingent liabilities

During the year the Group sold its shares in Socfin to Compagnie des Glénans and gave to the buyer a guarantee of liabilities.

The group has agreed to support part of the cost of current Socfin's disputes that would exceed the provision of EUR 6.8 millions recorded in Socfin's account and other contingent liabilities that have their origin in past event. The group commitment is limited in proportion of its shares in the total capital (12.8%). In any case and independently of the current cases, the group does not guarantee beyond the sale price of the Socfin shares to the Bolloré group, that is to say EUR 30,4 million. The commitment will end by 31 December 2009 but 2016 for the disputes described below.

To date, Société Financière of Champ de Mars (ex Socfin) is involve in the cases and consecutive to the sale of Caisse Privée Banque (guaranteed of liabilities) to the BBL/ING, described below:

Cilenroc case (provision of EUR 1,6 million in the accounts of Socfin)

a) Following a conviction by Court of appeal in 2004, Socfin paid to Partimmo (ING) the sum of EUR 12,9 million under this case bom in 1993. A partial reversal of this judgement pronounced with regard to the termination compensation (EUR 0,3 million) that Partimmo was sentenced to pay. The balance, EUR 12,6 million, is definitively acquired under trusteeship, the case being sent back to the Court of Liege for the surplus.

b) In 2005, Socfin had to pay an compensation for additional damage, of EUR 0,9 million. The Court of cassation broke this judgment and sent the case back to the Court of appeal of Liege;

c) Eventually, Socfin called upon the responsibility for the State of Belgium (Ministry of Justice) for the deficiencies and delays of these legal proceedings.

d) 16 October 2007, a summons was addressed to Partimmo (ING), this time at the request of the Cornelis family. The purpose of this new case is to repair the damage which would have personally undergone Cornelis, due to the fault of Partimmo, following the bankruptcy of Cilenroc. Since the case documents are not yet available, it is difficult to provide an opinion on the ending of this proceeding.

"Sociétés de Liquidité" case (provision of EUR 5,2 million in the accounts of Socfin)

These two actions also go back to past events (1997). The amount of the potential prejudice is EUR 18,6 million, not including possible interests, if convicted. The insurances cover, in theory, an amount reached a maximum to EUR 13,6 million. The difference as well as one excess was provisioned in the Socfin's balance sheet.

The management is not in a position to reliably estimate the probable outcome of those cases.

Directors' remuneration is regulated by art. 12 of the articles of association standing that the Directors fee is equivalent of 10% ofthe distributed profit.

However during the year discussions arose about the exact distribution of the profit. The decision was made that the shareholders will decide about tlie exact distribution of profits and consequently the exact remuneration for the board of directors during the shareholders meeting. Consequently as per the date of the financial statements there is an uncertainty about the amount to be provisioned for in the annual accounts relating to the board of directors' remuneration. This uncertainty cannot be reliably estimated at year end by the Board of Director's. The amount to be distributed to the board of directors can range from EUR 0 to EUR 2.7 million and will be charged to profit and loss account in 2008.

STATUTORY PROVISIONS CONCERNING THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT (TRANSLATION)

Statutory provisions covered in articles 12, for as long as they are applicable, state that:

  1. The Meeting, under article 14, decides what amortisations to apply.

  2. After deducting amortisations, preferred shareholders will receive a first dividend corresponding to 7% of the amount cleared from their shares, overestimated by the amounts that could only have been attributed to up to 7% for a given preceding year. The dividend attributed per year to these preferred shares will never exceed 7%.

  3. Of the amount after this distribution to preferred shareholders, it will, if possible:

a) be allocated 5% for the forming and maintenance of a reserve fund. This deduction ends when the reserve funds reach one tenth of the social capital.

b) be allocated for as long as needed, some amount to be distributed up to 5% of the interest on the amounts cleared from ordinary shares.

  1. The remaining profit will be allocated as follows:

10% to the Board of Directors 40% to founders' shareholders 50% to ordinary shareholders

  1. However, the Ordinary Annual Meeting of Shareholders can decide upon request of the Board of Directors that the 50% intended for ordinary shareholders will be fully or partially transferred to a special account or will be allocated to a special reserve.

  2. The Annual Meeting of Shareholders determines the date on which the dividends will be paid.

  3. The dividends that are not claimed five years after going into payment return to the company and are credited to the income statement.

  4. If it appears over several years that the income statement shows a loss and if this cannot be attributed to a reserve or written off in another way, there will be no distribution profit over the following years for as long as this loss continues.

3a

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Dutch law. This law requires that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgrnent, including the assessment ofthe risks of material misstatement ofthe financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers intemal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation ofthe financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation ofthe financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion with respect to the consolidated financial statements

In our opinion the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of Palmboomen Cultuur Maatschappij Mopoli N.V. as at 30 June 2007, and of its result and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and with Part 9 of Book 2 of the Netherlands Civil Code.
