Within the framework of the transfer of assets to FMS-WM that took place on 1 October 2010 the German Financial Market Stabilisation Agency (FMSA) reserved the right to stipulate a required payment (a purchase price adjustment) of up to Euro 1.59 billion in order to avoid distortion of competition. The FMSA has issued a declaratory decree that the full amount is to be borne by the DEPFA BANK plc sub-group. The first instalment of the purchase price adjustment becomes due and payable by the DEPFA BANK plc sub-group today in the amount of Euro 800m. Accordingly the following bank entities within the DEPFA BANK plc sub-group will pay to FMS-WM the Euro amounts specified below: DEPFA BANK plc 656,000,000 DEPFA ACS BANK 106,000,000 HYPO Pfandbrief Bank International S.A. 26,000,000 Hypo Public Finance Bank 12,000,000 The remaining amount will not arise unless and until the conditions for payment are met. As specified in the 2010 Annual Report the conditions are to ensure that payment would not cause the regulatory Tier 1 capital ratio of any of the bank entities to fall below 15%. In addition payment of the purchase price adjustment must not result, inter alia, in: any of the bank entities or their parent becoming insolvent, illiquid or result in a negative going concern assumption; or the violation of any relevant regulatory capital ratios, major credit limits or other legal or regulatory requirements.
