190 Annual Report 2009<br />
Transactions with material related parties gave rise to amounts<br />
in the financial statements as follows:<br />
(EUR thousand) 2009 2008<br />
Loans 354,231 308,952<br />
Receivables 74,134 60,710<br />

Interest income 13,031 18,273<br />
The loans concern the financing of the acquisition of aurelis<br />
Real Estate and of Budapest Airport.<br />
All transactions were conducted on an arm’s length basis.<br />
As in 2008, no material transactions were entered into be-<br />
tween HOCHTIEF Aktiengesellschaft or any Group company<br />
and Executive or Supervisory Board members or persons or<br />
companies close to them during the 2009 fiscal year. There<br />
were no conflicts of interest involving Executive Board or<br />
Supervisory Board members.<br />
38. Total Executive Board and Supervisory Board com-<br />
pensation<br />
The Compensation Report on pages 17–21 of this Annual Report<br />
outlines the principles applied when determining Executive<br />
Board compensation at HOCHTIEF Aktiengesellschaft and<br />
explains the amount and composition of that compensation.<br />
The principles applied and the amount of Supervisory Board<br />
compensation are also described. The Compensation Report<br />
is based on the recommendations of the German Corporate<br />
Governance Code. The Compensation Report also forms an<br />
integral part of the combined Management Report.<br />
For fiscal 2009, the Executive Board members received fixed<br />
compensation in a total amount of EUR 2,903,000, performance-linked<br />
compensation totaling EUR 3,033,000 and combined<br />
non-cash benefits of EUR 215,000. Long-term compensation<br />
components from LTIP 2009, amounting to EUR<br />
2,292,000, were also allocated for fiscal 2009. Total compensation<br />
for the 2009 fiscal year thus amounts to EUR 8,443,000<br />
(2008: EUR 8,440,000).<br />
The granting of the second tranche of the Retention Stock Award<br />
plan (RSA 2008) resulted in a EUR 8,106,000 extraordinary increase<br />
in the total compensation amount by the imputed market<br />
value of the second tranche, raising total compensation for<br />
fiscal 2009 to EUR 16,549,000 (2008: EUR 15,925,000). Although<br />
RSA 2008 runs for seven years, each of its three tranches is<br />
required to be accounted for at fair value at the grant date.<br />
This value is determined as of the grant date using the Black/<br />
Scholes option pricing model. The fair value at the end of the<br />
waiting period differs from the fair value at the grant date and<br />
depends on the future performance of the HOCHTIEF stock<br />
price. To further stress the long-term nature of the incentive<br />
systems, the Supervisory Board adopted a resolution to modify<br />
the conditions for future stock appreciation rights such that<br />
the waiting period is extended to four years. Plans will therefore<br />
be issued in the future with a term of seven years.<br />
The present value of pension benefits for former Executive<br />
Board members is EUR 34,946,000 (2008: EUR 31,976,000).<br />
This amount is fully covered by plan assets in the form of pension<br />
liability insurance entitlements and the HOCHTIEF pension<br />
fund.<br />
Pension payments to former members of the Executive Board<br />
and their surviving dependants were EUR 12,613,000 in 2009<br />
(2008: EUR 3,116,000). The increase from the prior year mainly<br />
relates to the exercise of long-term incentive plans.<br />
Total compensation for the members of the Supervisory<br />
Board came to EUR 1,994,000 (2008: EUR 1,897,000).<br />
39. Auditing fees<br />
