Pension and jubilee liabilities<br />
The Group contributes to defined contribution plans as well as defined benefit plans. The majority of the pension plans are funded through payments of annual premiums<br />
to independent insurance companies responsible for the pension obligation towards the employees (defined contribution plans). In these plans the Group has no<br />
legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions irrespective of the funding of these insurance companies. Pension costs from such plans are charged to the<br />
income statement when incurred.<br />
In the United Kingdom the Group has pension plans, which are defined benefit plans and are included in the balance sheet as shown below. In addition there are<br />
minor defined benefit plans in Norway, Holland, Denmark and Sweden.<br />
Some of the pension plans in Sweden are multi-employer plans. The plans are collective and are covered through premiums paid to Alecta. The Swedish Financial Accounting<br />
Standards Council’s interpretations committee (Redovisningsrådet) has defined this plan as a multi-employer defined benefit plan. Presently, it is not possible<br />
to obtain sufficient information from Alecta to assess the plans as defined benefit plans. Consequently, the pension plans are treated as defined contribution plans. The<br />
contributions made amount to DKK 5.9 million (2008: DKK 5.1 million, 2007: DKK 6.3 million). The collective funding ration at Alecta amounts to 141% as per December<br />
2009 (December 2008:112%, December 2007: 152%). For 2010 the contributions are expected to amont to DKK 5.9 million. <strong>DFDS</strong>’ share of the multi-employer<br />
plan is 0.037% and the liability follows the share of the total plan.<br />
In the below the calculation of the defined benefit plans is specified in accordance with actuarial methods.<br />
