2. WORK PERFORMED AND ASSESSMENT OF THE VALUE OF THE<br />

CONTRIBUTED ASSETS<br />

2.1. Examination performed<br />

We performed the work that we considered to be necessary pursuant to the professional<br />

standards of the Compagnie Nationale des Commissaires aux Comptes (National Association of<br />

Auditors) applicable to this engagement, requiring us to:<br />

- confirm the existence of the contributed assets and evaluate the impact of elements<br />

that could call their value into question;<br />

- evaluate the methods used to determine the value of the contribution;<br />

- verify that the economic value of the contribution, considered as a whole, is at least<br />

equal to the value proposed in the contribution agreement.<br />

In particular, we performed the following tasks:<br />

1. we held discussions with the managers of the companies involved in this transaction in<br />

order to both understand the proposed transaction and the context in which it will take<br />

place, and analyze the applicable accounting, legal and tax terms;<br />

2. we have reviewed the contribution agreement executed on April 19, 2010;<br />

3. we have reviewed the draft of the prospectus describing the transaction prepared in view of<br />

the admission of the NEW SERVICES HOLDING S.A. shares for trading on Euronext<br />

Paris, as well as the draft of the update to the 2009 annual report (document de reference) of<br />

ACCOR S.A.;<br />

4. we have verified that the principles used to value the contribution conform to the book value<br />

in light of the provisions of Regulation 2004-01 of the Comité de la Réglementation Comptable;<br />
