1. Energy Consumption in Elia’s balancing zone

Total Energy consumption in Elia’s balancing zone decreased slightly to 88,8 TWh in 2006 from 89,4 TWh in 2006

This is mainly due to :

• Mild temperatures throughout the year

• Increasing local production at industrial clients

• Energy from renewables (wind & biomass) directly injected in distribution network

Injected energy Elia’s balancing zone per month

The FORMULA : (art.8 §2 R.D. June 8th, 2007)

33% * RAB * [ OLO(2) + (risk premium * Beta) ]

+ (Equity/RAB(1) - 33%) * RAB * (OLO(2) + 70 bp)

(1) In case (Equity / RAB) < 33% than fair remuneration equals33% * RAB * [ OLO + (risk premium * Beta) ]

(2) OLO = Belgian 10 year bund

Fair remuneration(Equity remuneration)

• Equity divided in two parts:

part #1 : till 33% of RABpart #2 : from 33% of RAB till real Equity Value

• Fair remuneration on Equity:

part #1 : Belgian 10year bund + (eta risk premium)with risk premium = 3,5 % & eta = minimum 0,3

part #2 : Belgian 10year bund + 70 bp

Note : Real Belgian 10year bund (daily average) is computed every year and ex-post

• Beta is computed for a period of 7 years

• Elia Beta OR minimum of 0.3 is applicable from 2012 onwards

2. Decommissioning (goodwill remuneration)

• € 1,7 billion goodwill is allocated to fixed assets

• In case of decommissioning, relating goodwill is remunerated through the tariffs

• No amortization in profit and loss accounts (generates extra EBIT & net profit)

• Taxes due to extra EBIT covered by tariffs

• Net profit from decommissioning to be reserved for financing investments and equity value

Decommissioning(Explanatory Example)

• Fixed assets of € 2m net book value is decommissioned• Allocated goodwill to this fixed asset is € 3m

Impact on tariffs (Additional costs to be remunerated)1. Exceptional depreciation € 2m2. Goodwill decommissioning € 3m3. Additional taxes € 1,5 m (€3m/(1-33%))Total € 6,5m

Impact on revenues• € 6,5m as depreciation, taxes and goodwill are all remunerated

Impact on costs• € 2m exceptional depreciation• € 1,5m additional taxes

Impact on net profit• € 3m from goodwill decommissioning• This profit has to be reserved in equity as to finance investments
