COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND LITIGATIONOwnership of PropertyMajor matters relating to the ownership of PPC’s assets, are as follows:1. Public Power Corporation S.A. is the legal successor to all property rights of the former PPC legal entity. Itsproperties are for the most part held free of encumbrances. Although all property is legally owned, legal title inland and buildings will not be perfected and therefore title may not be enforced against third parties until theproperty is registered at the relevant land registry in PPC’s name. PPC is in the process of registering thisproperty free of charge at the relevant land registries following a simplified registration procedure. This processis not yet finalised.2. In a number of cases, expropriated land, as presented in the expropriation statements, differs (in quantitativeterms), with what PPC considers as its property.3. Agricultural land acquired by PPC through expropriation in order to be used for the construction ofhydroelectric power plants, will be transferred to the State at no charge, following a decision of PPC’s Board ofDirectors and a related approval by the Ministry of Development, if such land is no longer needed by PPC S.A.for the fulfilment of its purposes.Protection of National EconomyProvisions of Law 3833/<strong>2010</strong> “Protection of National Economy-Additional measures to strengthen fiscaltargets of Stability and Growth Programme” and Law 3845/<strong>2010</strong>, “Provisions for the implementation of thesupport mechanism for the Greek Economy by the member states of the Euro zone and the InternationalMonetary fund”.The technical difficulties of incorporating the provisions of L. 3833/<strong>2010</strong> and L. 3845/<strong>2010</strong>, in PPC’s payrollstructure (a large number of personnel categories and specialties as well as many types of allowances that oftendiffer per personnel category and specialty) resulted in the realization of the above mentioned incorporation in July<strong>2010</strong>. Total payroll reduction, including capitalised payroll, for the year <strong>2010</strong>, resulting from the implementation ofthe above mentioned legislation, is estimated at Euro 204.4 m.According to the 26.04.<strong>2010</strong> Decision of the Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting the one-off financial support toPPC’s Personnel Insurance Organizations up to the amount of payroll reduction, under the provisions of article 1,104
