VALUATION RULES

SUMMARY OF VALUATION RULES.

I. Formation expenses.

Formation expenses, which are not taken account of in the profit and loss account of the year, in which they are incurred, are depreciated over a maximum period of five years.

II. Intangible fixed assets.

R & D costs have been transferred to intangible fixed assets at their purchase or cost price.

In order to make results of the previous years comparable, R & D costs capitalized have been wholly depreciated as a charge against current profits but the difference between the actual amount of depreciation taken in the year and the gross amount capitalized has been treated as a write-back of depreciation in the exceptional profits.

Since 1984, a depreciation rate has been applied to these costs not exceeding that of reducing depreciation based on a life of four years. being in practice 50 % in the first year and 25 % in the second and third years. From 1990, a straight line depreciation rate of 33,33 % has been applied to these costs, based on a three year life considering "prorata temporis"

The purchase price of patents, licenses and similar items has been depreciated at a minimum rate equal to that of the assets required to handle the patent or process and otherwise over three years by the straight line method. From 1990, the purchase price of patents, licenses and similar items has been depreciated over a fixed number of vears, whose number cannot be less than five, equivalent to 20 % per annum considering "prorata temporis".

The purchase price of patents, licenses and similar items can also be depreciated in function of a prudent appreciation on the duration of the economic life of this intangible asset.

The purchase or cost price of intangible fixed assets, other than those referred to above, and which are eligible for subsidies (costs of commercial studies, of organizations, etc.) have been wholly depreciated in the year in which these expenses were incurred.

Intangible fixed assets, whose depreciation is taken over a period of five years or less, are removed from the balance sheet along with the relevant depreciation during the fifth year following their inclusion in assets.

Software acquired which is not essential for the functioning of the computer system and of a value above 1.250 Euro has been treated as an intangible fixed assets and "prorata temporis" depreciated over five years on a straight line basis.

Intangible fixed assets, whose depreciation is taken over a period of five years or less, are removed from the balance sheet along with the relevant "prorata temporis" depreciation during the fifth year following their inclusion in assets.

Since 2003, costs of new acquisitions haven been depreciated on a "prorata temporis" basis.

III. Tangible fixed assets.

Fixed assets purchased from third parties have been included in the assets on the balance sheet at their purchase price ; assets manufactured by the company itself have been valued at their cost price.

The purchase or cost price has been depreciated on a straight line basis considering "prorata temporis" at the usual rates agreed by the tax authorities which prevent overvaluation of the net value of fixed assets.

These annual rates of depreciation are as follows :

Buildings, houses 3%
Administrative buildings 3%
Industrial buildings 5 %
Tools 15%
Furniture and office equipment 15%
Vehicles 20%
Computer equipment and office machinery 33 1/3 %
Prototype equipment 33 1/3 %
Assets in the course of construction at the rate of the item
and provided for to which they will be transferred

In specific economical circumstances, write-off can be increased.

Tangible fixed assets sold to third parties have been written off at their gross value. At the same time the depreciation already taken in the previous year has been written back. The difference between the amount realized and the residual values gives rise to a surplus or deficit, which has been taken in exceptional profits and losses.

Fixed assets taken out of use have followed the same procedure. The residual value has been depreciated in total and taken against exceptional profits.

In the case of the transfer (by sale or contribution) of a branch of activity or of a division, the depreciation relating to the tangible fixed assets thus transferred during the year has been calculated pro rata temporis to the holding in the company.

46/48

VALUATION RULES

Reciprocally, the rule of pro rata temporis has been applied to those tangible fixed assets entering into the balance sheet of the company following the acquisition during the year of a branch of activity or of a division.

Software acquired essential for the functioning of the computer system has been treated as tangible fixed assets and has been depreciated in accordance with the rules in force for computer equipment, being 33 1/3 % per annum.

IV. Financial fixed assets.

Shareholdings have been valued individually each year by the Board of Directors on the basis of their valuation on the stock exchange, their realizable value, their income and their potential interest for the future of the UCB Group. Reductions in value, which have resulted, have been taken against exceptional profits and losses.

V. Stocks.

Bought-in items, both raw materials and supplies, have been valued at cost price or at market price, if the latter is lower.

The purchase price includes the value of the purchases increased by import duties or excise taxes, transport costs and taxes not recoverable and, where appropriate, unloading costs.

Write-offs are made annually on slow moving spares in order to achieve on a cumulative basis the same percentage write-off as depreciation on the corresponding tangible fixed assets. The annual charge may, however, not exceed 10 % of the value of the stock of these items at the end of the year.

Work in progress and finished goods have been valued at industrial cost, that is excluding general charges (other than factory overheads), depreciation and financial charges. This value has been reduced to likely selling prices, less related sales costs, if these are lower.

Marketable goods have been valued at their cost price or at market price at the end of the year, if the latter is lower.

The purchase price of maior raw materials and consumable stores, including those incorporated in work in progress and finished goods, has been fixed in accordance with the LIFO method. The purchase price of other stocks has been i fixed in accordance with the FIFO method.

Receivables have been written down if their repayment, when due, is wholly or partly uncertain or doubtful.

VII. Assets and commitments in foreign currencies.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities (for example stocks, buildings and shareholdings), resulting from an operation in foreign currencies, have been, and will continue to be, entered into the accounts at their acquisition value in Euro resulting from the conversion of the amount in foreign currency at the rate of exchange in force at the day on which the operation was done (historic rate).

This rule also applies to the conversion into Euro of monetary receivables and payables expresses in foreign currency. At the end of the year, however, the counter value in Euro of these items is subject to revaluation on the basis of the average spot market price, at the date to which the accounts are made up. The differences in conversion resulting from these revaluations are grouped together by currency. The net positive differences are booked as an accrued income, whilst the net negative differences are treated as costs. Currencies i to be received or paid as a result of forward exchange contracts have been revaluated on the basis of the spot rate at the end of the year.

VIII. Provisions for risk and charges.

All risks affecting the company, have been the subject of provision which are re-assessed each year, following the i rules of prudence, good faith and sincerity.
