Indeed, the economic and financial crisis that one had been announced arrived in its fullness, with particular intensity after September, when a major Investment Bank, with American capital and global businesses, filed for bankruptcy. Thus, the economy, which wasn’t very healthy mainly in the more developed regions, has increasingly worsened its situation as the year was ending. In the U.S., Japan and Euro Zone, none of the more developed economies escaped from the financial turmoil witnessed in the last four-month period of the year, which caused a huge slowdown in economic growth and great concern as the alarm signs became worse as the year end was closer. The European economies, in general, including all those where the main flows of tourists come from, have been caught by the financial crisis which was later extended to developing countries especially the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) which, initially, supposed that it could pass them by. If we remember that the first semester was dominated by a general increase in the price of several raw materials, with emphasis on oil, and also of basic food products – cereals and meat - we can conclude that we had a very difficult environment over the whole year. For this scenario significantly contributed the oil prices boost, which price had climbed from 57.21 US$ to 93.89 US$ a Brent barrel in 2007, and reached in 2008, prices close to 150 US$. The Portuguese economy, which was having a positive trend, even though modest, also saw its performance drop down, being estimated that the annual change of GDP in 2008, while positive, is close to zero. Another negative signal was the significant slowdown in Investment that occurred particularly after the last fourmonth of the year. As a result of the deterioration of the whole economic environment, the unemployment rate beginning to rise in Portugal and throughout Europe. The problem of unemployment is probably the one that will be the biggest challenge for public policies in the near future, not only because its trend of growth, but also, because the social problem it represents for families, including the most unprotected. Finally, it is highlighted that the indebtedness levels were maintained in a higher rank, either by the government, either by the companies or households, indicating that Portugal and the Portuguese’s still live above its possibilities, which may be, in the long term, a big obstacle to a sustained trend of economic recovery. Perspectives The 2009 outlook seems to be even more turbulent. The tensions in the financial sector have been contaminating the whole economy, affecting companies that until a few months ago were seen as among the most robust in the world. The car industry and its entire supporting activi- GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ties are suffering in chain, and the construction and real estate sectors, important parts for the majority of the western economies, have suffered drastic reductions in its activity. In the present context, it is forecasted for the current year the maintenance of the world economy recession environment, although the most optimistic predict the appearance of positive signs, with some consistency, in the last fourmonth period of the year in some economies. The fight against the crisis has been guided by aggressive public policies - public investment and support to exporting companies or companies which have high levels of employment - are examples of some of these measures - and by Central Banks – through the reduction of interest rates and extraordinary measures, such as direct lending to companies or the massive injection of money to provide liquidity to financial systems - have had the merit to alleviate the drastic effects of the crisis, in the short term, but will require, in the medium term, no less extraordinary measures to combat tensions, including inflation, which will appear later on. As a result of this financial crisis is now a consensus that the populations of more developed economies need to change its behavior patterns. Indeed, or the productivity rate changes substantially, or it will be impossible to keep some of the social protections that were introduced in these economies over the years of economic growth, which, of course, will not be well accepted and will create an instability and conflict climate. In the other hand, these economies will have to increase the saving rates and reduce the consumption levels. Finally, it is expected, and desirable, in order to prevent future crisis of similar or greater severity, the opening of a path of sustained reduction of asymmetries between the economies (and people’s living standards) of developed countries and the rest of the World. Tourism Sector The Tourism sector, Grupo Pestana core business, had in 2008 a good year, yet. However, the sector was not immune to the economic crisis and there was, consequently, a reduction in demand at a global level with special intensity at the end of the year. This situation is, however, the result of two opposing trends. To the positive trend of the first half of the year opposed the reduction in demand that, gradually, was reaching various destinations in the second half of the year. On average, the pace of demand growth was lower than what had been happening in previous years (between 1995-2006 the world-wide tourism has grown an average of +5,0% per year), and also lower than what is foreseen for the next years (WTO – World Tourism Organization, expects an annual average growth of +4,0% per year, in the long term). This growth has not been similar in all segments, though. Indeed, if in the Leisure Tourism the reductions have been perfectly reasonable for a climate of economic slowdown, in the corporate segment – Meetings, Incentive, Conference, and Exhibitions (MICE) - has seen drastic GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS reductions in demand. For the lesser negative trend in leisure are not unrelated the socioeconomic changes that occurred in the living standards of the populations of most advanced economies: the creation of vacations period, the enlargement of the retired population, the information society that arises the people’s curiosity about the world around, are examples of factors that strongly contribute to turn almost essential the need of doing holidays. It is clearly that the economic environment influences the greater or lesser spending in holidays, but the need of doing holidays is no longer questioned for a large part of population in developed countries. People continue to travel, though less often, in shorter periods and spending less money. To maintain these levels of demand it has also contributed, significantly, the innovations that have occurred in this industry. First in the air transport, where the business model set up by the “Low Cost” companies, and the reaction that other operators were forced to take to improve their competitive position, made that the average price of the air tickets has fallen considerable. In fact, this was done boosted by the “Open Air” policy that most countries followed. Also in the distribution channels there have been significant changes. The traditional tour operators began a strategy of consolidation, which, in a first stage, consisted in the merger with other traditional players (at the end of 2006 the first four players on the European market were reduced to two through businesses combinations), and, in the second stage, passed by the acquisition of “Web Based” operators, some of them with close connections with airlines with a low cost operating concept or with mixed operating systems. At the level of “web” operators, technological advances and partnerships have making the market changing, intensifying the competition. This movement occurs not only in marketing models but also in the development of information services to the potential tourist / client, whether about destinations and its attractions or about others travelers opinions or product users. We are, thus, in the middle of the “Social Media” age, emerging, daily, new sites on the Internet and new “blogs” about various tourism products. Therefore, companies have to enter in this game, developing and giving visibility to its own “sites”, establishing partnerships and be constantly alert to the opinions that are made about its own products. In the Destinations management there is also an increased competition, because the bet that many countries, or regions, are doing in the creation and growth of new tourist destinations. Countries, or regions, until very recently regarded as non-existent or even ignored in the tourism sector, have emerged in the market with new products and very aggressive promotional campaigns supported by massive public investments. The crisis in industrial sectors has increased this phenomenon, as the countries seek alternatives in the tourism sector for its development plans. Companies are, thus, facing an unfavorable economic environment that reduces demand, GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS causing major changes in business models and intensifying competition. By this way, the sector became much more competitive, forcing companies to improve their efficiency and effectiveness levels. Nowadays, better business strategies are required in order to engage in more and better products and services offers at the same cost, providing greater value to the client. In other words, increasing the productivity levels through employees’ better qualifications, and obtaining bigger synergies and economies of scale has become an imperative for the companies’ survival, in addition to the rule of good management. This phenomenon explains, in part, the market players’ reduction, which being fewer, are bigger as they agglutinate the smaller or the more inefficient operators around them, that don’t keep up the market competitiveness. For a winning business strategy, it is also necessary a good management of tourist destinations where they are implemented. As already mentioned, the destinations are facing new challenges that will only be overcome through strategies to improve infrastructures that are essential to the products offered. By this way, it will be possible to have a quality and sustainable tourism and raise the level of the services offered. This will only be possible if it is developed a culture of tourism and if there is effectiveness in the promotion, which involves using the right channels and appropriate instruments to the strategy that was established. In order to achieve this goal, it is increasingly urgent to have a public/private partnership to manage the different variables of Tourism sup- ply and demand. Get comparative advantages against the competition, as the only way to win this battle, implies a consensus and a concerted action not only in the institutional promotion of the Tourist Destination and of the different supply components, but also in other traditional areas in the scope of the public intervention, which became central to the quality and international competitiveness of that destination. This means public policies for territory planning, environment, transportation and its infrastructures, health, public safety, entrance visas, management of the cultural places and of the historical and cultural patrimony, creative management and cross promotion of the tourist destination, among others specific for each region. Therefore, it is necessary an effective partnership between with the private economic agents, which are the main players of this sector. This public/private partnership is crucial not only for the definition of the destination strategy, but also for its achievement. As such, the integrated management of a tourist destination with shared responsibilities between the different sectors of the public policy, and between these and the private sector, is a key factor to reach, in the global market, good levels of competitiveness. In Portugal the performance of the tourism sector in 2008 followed the international trends. In the main touristic areas, the first half of the year registered a growth in demand. However, in the second half of the year the effects of the financial crisis have gradually arrived. The crisis was firstly felt in the Algarve, which already had a difficult summer in 2008, and after in the markets more dependent on the corporate seg- GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ments, such as the Lisbon area, and, finally, was spread out to the whole territory. In the Madeira island, which had a very good performance in the first nine months, it was seen a substantial reduction in demand in the last months of the year. However, the excellent performance of the initial three quarters made this year the best year ever of many hotels. Nevertheless, the Tourism sector in Portugal continues to suffer from serious structural problems, which debilitates it in conjunction with the aggressive international competition. demand. Also, belonging to the European Union requires respect for anti-dumping and anticompetitive EU laws that has prevented states from adopting policies to subsidize operators, airlines or hotels, which other countries have no problems to put into practice. Therefore, there are greater challenges for companies, as the Group Pestana, which have the majority of its operations in the Euro Zone. For 2009 there are clear signs of concern. Right away, the continuation of the current economic and financial crisis, and after the appreciation trend of the Euro against the British Pound and the U.S. Dollar. The continuation of the economic crisis, besides the reduction in demand, has another perverse effect, which stems from the reduction of liquidity in financial systems. Through this scarcity, many companies came into difficulties. There was, in some cases, uncompleted projects and, in others cases, units that were already operating and have to adopt very aggressive strategies. The adoption of such strategies, particularly when focused, exclusively, in pricing, first drag their businesses down and later the entire sector. The appreciation of Euro against other currencies, especially the British Pound and U.S. Dollar, make the tourist destinations of the Euro Zone more expensive compared to its competitors, increasing, by this way, the reduction in GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2.

This project had in 2008 its first year of activity and had already worked with more than a hundred and a half of young people and almost ten institutions; n The acquisition in December 2008 of a company that owns three buildings in Miami, with the objective of opening a hotel with about 100 rooms in their joint space. Therefore, the Group continued to implement its strategy, which consisted mainly in organic growth, although having made some acquisitions focusing on the two brands under Group’s management: “Pestana Hotels & Resorts” and “Pousadas de Portugal.” This strategy aims to turn the Group Pestana into a worldwide player even more competitive in a highly global and aggressive environment, fulfilling our Vision – Growing with passion and strength in the five continents. This objective will only be achieved if we are able to consolidate our business and expand it in a sustainable way. In doing so, we will be constantly focused on improving the efficiency and the services provided to customers, we will be innovative n The completion of the project “Criamar” - Institution of Social Solidarity whose purpose is to GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Results obtained by Geographical Areas TURNOVER Amounts in Million Euros Amount ∆ 2008/2007 Geographical Area 2008 2007 Madeira 88,7 83,3 +6,5% Algarve 45,7 52,3 -12,6% Gr. Lisboa Porto 58,1 63,4 -8,4% Internacional 30,0 11,7 +156,4% 222,5 210,7 +5,6% The difficulties that 2008 encompassed are reflected on the evolution of the results. Thus, if the Madeira Island, as result of an excellent year to Tourism in the first nine months of the year, managed to increase its profitability comparing to 2007, and obtained its best year ever, other regions had their performances reduced. International area also had an increase in GOP (GOP - Gross Operating Profit), which is due to the good performance in Buenos Aires and Cabo Verde, and also due to activity increase because of the Hotel in Caracas, which from the beginning showed very positive results. It is also important to point out the resilience of the Group’s operations, which achieve very positive results in spite of great difficulties caused by the economic and financial crisis. first time in the recent years increased its weight in the total profitability of the Group, comparing with the previous year. The reversal of this trend is not unrelated with the effort to invest in this geographic area, which included the refurbishment of two of the most important and oldest units: “Pestana Carlton” and “Pestana Casino Park.” Another positive aspect that is important to highlight is the fact that in absolute terms, the reductions in turnover are rather higher than in the GOP. This fact, which is not easily achievable in sectors with very rigid cost structures (predominance of fixed costs), is demonstrative of the Group’s effort to make more flexible its Profit and Loss making it more adapted to market fluctuations. In consequence of these results, the most matured area of the group – Madeira Island – had for the GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Results by Business Area TURNOVER ∆ 2008/2007 Amount Business 2008 2007 Hotels 145,3 137,8 5,4% Timeshare & Tourist Real Estate 23,9 36,4 -34,3% Tourist Animation 20,6 20,8 -1,0% Tourist Distribution & others 32,7 15,7 108,3% 222,5 210,7 +5,6% Amounts in Million Euros Whether in absolute or relative terms, it is verified that the major increases occurred in the Group’s most important business - Hotels more 7,5 million Euros in turnover and more 3,2 million Euros in GOP, which represents a growth of 8% in relation to the previous year. It is also important to point out that the analysis to these growths in the Hotels business shows a “Flow Through” of 43%, demonstrating, therefore, a good costs’ management. Thus, it is clear that the real estate sector was the one that most suffered with the macroeconomic and financial crisis that occurred in 2008 and is expected to continue in 2009. We also stress that the increase in turnover does not imply higher results. There are sectors, such as tourism distribution, where increases in activity have little contribution, at least directly, for cash flow generation. With the exception of Timeshare and, especially, the Tourist Real Estate, all other business areas do not present significant negative changes. GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Balance Sheet structure of Grupo Pestana – S.G.P.S., S.A. Analyzing the Company’s Balance Sheet, it is possible to present the Group’s statement of origins and applications of capital, as follows: 2008 % TOTAL 2007 ∆ 08/07 Fixed Assets 592.925 85,4% 539.752 +9,9% Current Net Assets 59.485 8,6% 56.332 +5,6% Cash and banks 41.502 6,0% 39.805 +4,3% 693.912 100,0% 635.889 +9,1% CAPITAL APPLICATIONS Total Aplicações de Capital Amounts in Million Euros Capital Origins 2008 % TOTAL 2007 Shareholder’s Equity 268.417 38,7% 223.260 Minority Interests 39.369 5,7% 77.584 6.148 0,9% 6.663 313.934 45,2% 307.507 370 0,1% 408 Medium/long term Debt 237.887 34,3% 185.722 Total Permanent Capitals 552.191 79,6% 493.637 Short term Debt 96.811 13,9% 86.276 Accruals and Deferrals 44.910 6,5% 55.977 T otal Capital Origins 693.912 100,0% 635.889 Debts to Shareholders Shareholder’s Equity or Equivalent Provisions for risks and charges Amounts in Million Euros GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ∆ 08/07 +2,1% +11,9% + 9,1% The Capital Applications continue focused mainly in Fixed assets, representing more than 85% of the total. This fact derives from Hotels be the Company’s “core business” and, in opposition with the policy followed in the last years by other hotels chains, the Group’s option of being the owner of the units under operation. This option implies, on one hand, a slower growth in terms of units and number of beds operated by the Company, but, on the other hand, turns the Company’s Balance Sheet stronger giving sustainability to the growth achieved. The Balance Sheet strength can also be evaluated by the Total debt/Total fixed assets ratio, which is 56,4%, in spite of fixed assets being clearly understated, considering that the older units are accounted for by an amount lower than the its fair value. The valuation of fixed assets, by any market method (GOP multiples, multiples of the room value or discounted cash flows), or by the replacement value method, would lead to substantial capital gains that have always been verified when it was necessary to make an assessment to these units. Therefore, the securitization of part of the assets, mainly the fixed assets, keeping them under the Group’s management, a very common operation in tourism companies and already tested in the past in some Group units, would allow covering completely the debt liabilities. assets and the cash and banks is about 40% of the short term debt. Therefore, the Group is prepared to face the current financial crisis and liquidity scarcity, as had overcome other crisis that occurred in the last 37 years of the existence of the Group, which are typical in the Tourism sector. In 2008 the Group completed an intensive investment phase, either by opening new units or by the end of the remodeling process of the main hotel units. Indeed, the investment in the last year was around 80 million Euros, being predicted that will fall to about 20% of this amount in the current year. Just as an example, in 2008 were being built two new units in Madeira island, meanwhile concluded (Porto Santo and Promenade), and was also finished the renewal of two major hotels (Casino Park and Carlton) and of Casino Madeira, in addition to the payment of the financial contribution that allowed the renewal of the Gambling concession in Funchal area. Therefore, there was an investment that exceeded the 35 million Euros while in 2009 the investment planned, including the renewal of the “Pestana Palms,” will have a maximum cost of 1 million Euros. Any investments in progress, of which the main are “Pestana London” and the “Pousadas” of Viseu and Freixo, in Oporto, have assured their medium and long term financing needs. In the company’s balance sheet the weight of permanent capital is about 80% of total GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Grupo Pestana – S.G.P.S., S.A. Cash-flows Statement 2008 2007 Var. 08/07 2006 Var. 07/06 + Operational profit 33.088,2 36.197,6 -8,6% 22.645,0 +59,9% + Depreciations 26.752,0 21.406,8 +24,7% 21.843,8 -2,0% 1.191,1 1.141,6 +4,3% 246,6 363,9% Operational cash-flow 61.031,3 58.746,0 +3,9% 44.735,4 +31,3% Annual cash-flow 51.946,7 49.134,5 +5,7% + Provisions Amounts in Million Euros The 2008 Operational cash-flow was slightly higher to the one obtained in 2007 and over 35% higher than the one obtained in 2006. This figure reflects the good performance achieved by the several business areas of Group Pestana in a year that, as already referred, had a second semester with a significant decrease in demand, and there were sectors, as Tourist real estate, where the effects of the financial crisis were already strongly felt. This figure represents about 19% of the total shareholder’s equity or equivalents, curiously the same profitability registered in 2007. The achievement of these positive results, in a hard context and where the Group’s organic growth was yet significant, in business areas like Hotels, which have long pay-back periods, reveals the Company’s good capacity to generate cash-flows, mainly in those divisions where the businesses are more matured and, therefore, the operational efficiency is more proficient. Conversely, the total Annual cash-flow was higher than the one obtained in 2008 (the higher amount obtained till this year), and represented about 3,27 times the amount of interests and similar expenses (Net interests) for the year. These amounts reflect the Grupo Pestana S.G.P.S., S.A. solid financial structure since its inception and are the outcome of a careful debt management that we aim to leave far below the Group maximum indebtedness capacity.

GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 7. THE FUTURE The year of 2009, because the negative signals that hang over the economies of major tourism markets, is foreseen as a difficult year. The level of difficulty will, mostly, take place in the low seasons. The different players of the sector value chain are with defensive strategies and, thus, less willing to take risks. This involves reducing operations in times of greater uncertainty on the demand side. In addition, the corporate market, very dependent of the companies’ budgets, that at this stage is natural that are restrictive, will have a slowdown during the year. Also leisure destinations of the Euro Zone, where prevail the products Sun and Beach and also the Nature, might suffer a increased reductions of an important market as the English if the Euro continues the appreciation against other currencies. We have, therefore, a negative outlook throughout the all year and for all tourism segments. As a response, it is important outlining strategies that allow, first, to overcome the crisis minimizing its effects, and, second, to create conditions so that, after the worst phase, the Group is able to grab the good opportunities that the post-crisis periods usually offer. Consequently, it becomes even more important that business strategies incorporate the necessary measures to increase the levels of competitiveness, which can only be achieved by improving business efficiency. The Group Pestana will continue its strategy, conducting its business by the following guidelines: nContinue to improve operational flexibility, sharply reducing fixed costs and giving to the organization resources for quick responses to the different situations and challenges that the market will offer; nContinue to invest in change and innovation, as a way of, through new business models and new services or processes, increase creation of value to its customers, providing them greater satisfaction and, thereby, collect their loyalty; nIncrease the relation with the different “stakeholders”, including strengthening partnerships throughout the value chain of the sector, with tour operators or airlines and increasing the transparent dialogue with its financing partners; nRedouble the attention to the market, without losing long term vision – that means, an economy of war that allows to survive the crisis (the financial resilience is crucial) but, also, to prepare the Organization for new challenges and opportunities of the “post-crisis” period; nReinforcing its commitment to its more than six thousand employees, promoting an environment that allows everyone to overcome this time of difficulty with the hard work that will be needed but, also, with the awareness that everyone is making all efforts to do the right things, and, together, we can prepare a better future; nIncrease the support of the activities in the pillars of Sustainability (environmental, social and economical), assuming the commitment and promoting the implementation of best practices not only within the company but also in society in which it belongs.

Financial investments in associated companies referred in Note 1, are recorded in the consolidated balance sheet by its acquisition value or, if lower, by the estimated net realizable value. This amount is adjusted by the equity method usage. Financial investments corresponding to less than 20% of capital held are registered at acquisition cost or, if lower, at the estimated net realizable value.

Its main activity is the management of financial investments on other companies. The notes to the financial statements follow the sequential numbering defined in the Portuguese Official Plan of Accounts (POC). Standard notes not included are either not applicable to the Company or their presentation is not relevant to the reading of the referred financial statements. 3. BASES DE PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in a going concern basis from the books and accounting records of the Company, maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Portugal (“PGAAP”). The most significant accounting principles used in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements were as follows: a) Intangible assets Intangible assets include mainly start-up expenses, which are accounted at acquisition cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis period between 3 to 6 years. b) Tangible assets Tangible assets are valued at acquisition cost. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis according to the estimated useful lives between 3 and 7 years. GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS c) Financial investments Financial investments in subsidiaries and associated companies, on an individual basis, are recorded using the equity method. Initially, the financial investment is recorded at acquisition cost adjusted according to the proportional shareholder’s equity value, reported to the acquisition date or the first-time equity method’s adoption date. d) Cash-pooling One of the Company’s functions is to manage the Group’s centralized treasury. Therefore, it registers in Other short term applications and Other loans obtained the amounts granted and received, respectively, to other Group companies, according to the cash-pooling contract. e) Accrual basis The differences between acquisition cost of subsidiaries and associated companies and the proportional shareholder’s equity fair value on the acquisition date were registered in Financial Investments - shares in group companies, when positive, and depreciated during the current estimated payback period, and in Shareholders’ equity - adjustments to investments in affiliated and associated companies, when negative. Costs and revenues are recorded in the year to which they refer, regardless of when they are paid or received, in accordance with the accrual basis principle. Differences between amounts received and paid and the corresponding revenue and expenditure are recorded as accruals and deferrals. According to the equity method, the financial investments amounts are annually adjusted through the proportional share in the net results of participated companies and registered in the profit and loss account. Additionally, the dividends received are deducted from the respective financial investment asset value. All assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currency have been converted into Euro using the exchange rate ruling on the balance sheet date and published by Banco de Portugal. The remaining financial investments are accounted for at acquisition cost or, in case of loans to associated companies, at the nominal value. The estimated recovery losses on financial investments are registered in the caption Adjustments for financial investments. f) Assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies g) Taxation Income tax is calculated in accordance with the applicable legal requirements. Deferred taxes are, when applicable, recognised in the financial statements in accordance with Portuguese Accounting Directive nr. 28. The dividends received from these investments are recorded in the profit and loss account for the year when it is decided and communicated the distribution’s decision. GRUPO PESTANA SGPS MANAGEMENT REPORT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 6. TAXATION 7. AVERAGE NUMBER According with Portuguese tax law, income tax returns are subject to review and correction by Tax Authorities, for a period of four years subsequent to their filing (for Social Security returns is a ten years period until 2000 and five years period for returns after 2001). Thus, the Company’s tax returns for the years 2005 to 2008 are still subject to such review. OF EMPLOYEES During 2007 and 2008, the average number of employees was 3. The Board of Directors believes that any corrections that may arise from a tax review by the Tax Authorities shall not have a material effect on the financial statements as at 31 December 2008 and 2007. According t o article 81º of the Corporate Income Tax Code (“Código do Imposto sobre o Rendimento das Pessoas Colectivas”) the Company is subject to a flat tax rate over a set of expenses, which in the current period amounts to Euro 3.562,40.
