ANNUAL REPORT 2010 Draft Statement by the Chairman for AGM/Annual Report 2010

Dear Shareholders, I am pleased to report that, during 2010, Danubius Group continued to respond purposefully to the challenges presented by the ongoing economic difficulties in most of Europe and an extremely tough market for tourism, particularly in Hungary. As we move into 2011, we can take some encouragement from the recovery in Germany and the forecasts for a return to growth in most other European countries. Nevertheless, many uncertainties remain, which can influence the behaviour of tourists and business travellers. These include questions about the future of the Eurozone, the effects of the unstable situation in the Middle East, including on energy costs, the unquantifiable implications on Japanese business from the earthquake and tsunami and the extent to which cost-cutting programmes in several countries might affect the rate of economic recovery. Turning to the financial results for 2010, your Company proved resilient to extremely testing business conditions and I would highlight the following aspects: õ Revenues expressed in Euro slightly exceeded those of 2009, despite the negative effect of the volcanic ash problem in the spring. As a result of the stronger Hungarian currency compared to 2009, revenues reduced by 1% when translated into HUF. õ Group occupancy increased by just over 1% compared to 2009, whilst in Hungary the occupancy increase was 1.7% despite an increasingly competitive market. õ The operating profits and cashflow of the subsidiaries in Czech Republic, Slovakia and Romania held up well and helped to offset difficult trading conditions in Hungary. õ The overall level of Group borrowings did not change from the beginning of the year and interest costs reduced. Management exercised tight control over liquidity. The net cash provided by our operating activities increased from HUF 3.8 billion in 2009 to HUF 4.3 billion in 2010, due largely to effective management of working capital. Our loss after tax slightly increased from HUF 756m in 2009 to HUF 882m, but, despite this, shareholders’ equity grew by just over 1%, due to translation gains on subsidiary investments. The continuing imbalance of supply and demand in Budapest, due to huge new investments in hotel facilities not being matched by rising demand, has remained a problem for all operators in the market. We expect it will take several years for this imbalance to correct itself and so all our efforts are directed at making our activity more competitive. Tight cost control has been a key goal for the last two years and this will continue. In addition, we have invested substantially in our websites, central reservation system and e-commerce activities to assert our own strengths in the marketplace. Whilst many new hotels have been opened in Budapest, many of Danubius’ properties are unique and have a special appeal to guests seeking to experience Hungary’s history and traditions. We are constantly seeking out new initiatives to capitalise on these attributes and to provide the best value. It is encouraging that the new Government in Hungary is adopting a more positive approach towards tourism, not least by allocating increased funding for tourism marketing in the 2011 budget. In recent years, Hungary has slipped in its attractiveness as an international destination, whether for leisure or corporate

guests, and the Government’s new initiatives, on the back of Hungary’s presidency of the EU in the first half of 2011, are to be welcomed. A boost for tourism will definitely contribute to economic growth and create more much needed jobs in Hungary. Danubius is willing to pay its full part in this process. In my report last year, I mentioned the importance of the Company’s strategy over the last decade of expanding its health spa business into other countries in the region. Once again, this strategy proved important to Group results as increasing numbers of guests from Russia and former Soviet countries helped maintain our Czech business, whilst Slovakia recorded an upturn of guests from Israel and Arab countries. In Romania, the business proved resilient, despite the wider problems of the Romanian economy. Apart from the continued roll out of the new operating software in Hungary, bringing access to cutting edge management information systems, significant investments have been made in our subsidiaries. In Marienbad, the Maria Spa Project will be completed in Spring 2011 and the fully refurbished balneotherapy facilities in Piestany are now open. In Romania, a programme of refurbishing hotel rooms was completed and work on the wellness and pool area will be concluded later in 2011. We expect 2011 to be another challenging year, not least as, at least for the time being, the Hungarian and Czech currencies are at stronger levels than the rates included in our budgets. Hence, there can be no let up in the tight control of our business costs and cashflow, as well continued innovation in sales and marketing, particularly e-commerce, social media and the enhancement of margins through improved channel management. Danubius will also continue its adjustment to the very different business conditions from those of three or four years ago. We are currently exploring new opportunities, both for investments and management contracts, which are slowly emerging from the shake out of the recession. Such investments must be rigorously justified in the light of the present economic conditions and the availability of finance. However, following the substantial reduction in its cost base over recent years, Danubius should be well placed to take advantage of such opportunities and to improve its profits as revenues start to grow again. During the last year, I can inform you that CP Holdings increased its direct interest in the Company from 80.03% of shares entitled to a voting right to 81.40% today. Given the 2010 results and the exacting business conditions which continue to face the Group, the Board is not proposing the payment of a dividend this year. I would particularly like to thank our managers and employees for their understanding, loyalty and commitment during these difficult times. Only with the full co-operation of all our people, at every level in the organisation, can we maintain service quality which is so essential to our future success. CP Holdings has been a major investor in Danubius Group for over 15 years and I want to assure you that we are not fair weather friends. It is a particular pleasure to me that two further generations of the Schreier family are now involved in our business and this underpins our commitment to Danubius and to all our other business in the region. Whilst I am optimistic by nature, the uncertainties which exist in the world mean we must be realistic in assessing the outlook for 2011. The continuing trend towards later booking and increasing energy and commodity prices are examples of factors which make forecasting difficult. We must hope that improved economic growth forecasts are delivered, especially in Hungary, and that our customers feel sufficiently secure to travel more whether for business or leisure. The frustrating events of the last two or three years must not be allowed to obscure the long term strengths of Danubius – our unique and historical hotel assets, our health spas with signature treatments based on local natural resources and our great reputation for hospi-

õ In the financial year of 2010 total net sales revenues were HUF 42.9 billion, down by 1% compared to last year. The movements in HUF/EUR FX rate and the net lost revenue caused by the volcanic ash together had a considerable negative effect on Hungarian segment revenue in 2010 compared to 2009, while in EUR terms we were able to increase revenue compared to last year. Group occupancy in 2010 was 60.0% compared to 58.9% in 2009 due to the significant occupancy increase in the third quarter, that is regularly the strongest quarter of the group. õ EBITDA in FY 2010 is down by 15% to HUF 4.9 billion from HUF 5.7 billion due to the following: õ Hungarian segment’s revenue for FY 2010 decreased by 2% to HUF 25.2 billion mainly due to lower revenue recognised from room and F&B services (significantly less banqueting) and from Gundel banqueting services, however the occupancy of hotels increased by 1.7% from 55.5% to 57.2%, while the operating result amounted to a loss of HUF 0.6 billion compared to HUF 0.1 billion loss as savings on payroll and other operating expenses partly compensated the negative effect of lower revenues. õ Czech hotels contributed an operating profit of HUF 574 million in FY 2010 compared to a profit of HUF 623 million in FY 2009, in spite of the revenue increase of 3% to HUF 7.3 billion due to higher cost of more guest nights. õ Slovakian segment’s operating profit was HUF 134 million in FY 2010 compared to a profit of HUF 356 million in FY 2009. Revenue in HUF terms decreased by 2% to HUF 9.0 billion, partly thanks to the strengthening of HUF against EUR. Costs were kept tightly under control. õ In FY 2010 the total revenue of Romanian segment decreased by 2% to HUF 1.5 billion, therefore operating result decreased by HUF 25 million to a profit of HUF 203 million.

Report of the Board of Directors

õ The Financial result in 2010 was a loss of HUF 1.3 billion, compared to a loss of HUF 1.5 billion in 2009. In 2010 interest expenses decreased by HUF 589 million compared to 2009 as the EURIBOR prime rate was extremely low (around 0.8% in average) and last year the fair value of our Collar&Cap options adversely changed by HUF 97 million increasing the interest expenses by this amount. In 2010 weaker HUF caused HUF 0.5 billion unrealised FX loss while it was HUF 0.3 billion in 2009. õ Loss before tax in 2010 was HUF 1.0 billion, compared to a loss of HUF 0.4 billion in 2009. õ Net cash provided by operating activities in 2010 was HUF 4.3 billion, a 12% improvement compared to HUF 3.8 billion net cash provided in 2009. õ Capital expenditure and investments during 2010 amounted to HUF 2.5 billion compared to HUF 2.1 billion spending in 2009. õ Group level average headcount decreased by 5% in 2010, it was 4,646 compared to 4,876.

Total sales revenue and other operating income of 2010 decreased by 2% to HUF 25.2 billion, mainly due to lower revenue recognised from room and F&B services and from Gundel banqueting services. The combination of the strengthening of HUF against EUR and the net lost revenue caused by the volcanic ash together still had a negative effect on total 2010 revenue compared to 2009, that is estimated to be app. HUF 0.4 billion.

Report of the Board of Directors

Hotel occupancy in FY 2010 was 57.2% compared to 55.5% in FY 2009, thanks to the impressive increase in Q3’s occupancy by 4%, and in Q4 by almost 1%.The occupancy of Budapest hotels increased by 0.9 percentage point at year-to-date level. In spite of the occupancy increase room revenue of Hungarian hotels in 2010 decreased by 3% to HUF 12.9 billion compared to 2009 due to the significant decrease of average room rate achieved (ARR) to HUF 12,628, lower by HUF 910 than the comparative figure. The average length of stay was 2.8 days in 2010 remained at the same level of last year. The number of guest-nights during financial year of 2010 increased to 1,699,016 from 1,657,734 out of which domestic guest-nights represent 19.8%, compared to FY 2009 level of 21.5%. In financial year guests from Spain, Great Britain and China decreased the most, but more guests arrived from Ukraine, Russia, USA and Germany. Due to the revenue drop room departmental profit margin decreased from 77.6% to 75.5%.

Food and beverage revenue of hotels and restaurants for financial year of 2010 was HUF 7.5 billion, lower by 2% than the comparative figure, as a direct result of lower banqueting. Full year 2010 F&B departmental profit of our hotels fell by HUF 176 million mainly as the result of lower revenue which could not be compensated by the decrease of payroll and cost of sale. Gundel’s F&B revenue in FY 2010 decreased by 6% to HUF 984 million. Operational expenses include a net loss of HUF 145 million in respect of selling and impairing wine inventories. In FY 2010 Spa revenue was HUF 1,222 million, remained at the same level of last year, being the combined effect of an increase in the number of treatments sold and a decrease in average price. Spa departmental profit decreased by 5% due to the higher personnel costs associated with more treatments sold. Revenue from security ser vices decreased by 7% in 2010 to HUF 774 million. Due to the combined effect of inflation on materials and the effect of cost saving measures full year raw material expenses decreased by 6% to HUF 5.4 billion, however – due to more guest nights - the value of services used in FY 2010 increased by 5% to HUF 6.4 billion, within this energy cost felt by 12% to HUF 2,289 million while the amount spent on maintenance work at the hotels and restaurants increased by 5% to HUF 623 million. Personnel expenses of operation in FY 2010 were HUF 10.7 billion, no material change compared to 2009 in spite of the increased occupancy of our hotels, in addition the comparison with the prior years was negatively impacted by the movements in accruals. Due to the combined effect of the decrease of 3 months EURIBOR, the decrease of average borrowings over the period and the change in the fair value of interest swap derivatives interest expenses decreased to HUF 688 million from HUF 1,191 million in financial year of 2010. Primarily as the result of depreciation of HUF in FY 2010 against EUR, in which the majority of our long-term borrowings are denominated, a HUF 0.6 billion foreign exchange loss (mostly unrealised) was recognised in profit and loss, compared to a loss of HUF 0.3 billion in FY 2009.

Total sales revenue and other operating income in HUF terms grew by 3% to HUF 7.3 billion in financial year of 2010, mainly due to the strengthening of Czech crown against forint.

Report of the Board of Directors

Being the result of the above the profit before tax of Romanian operations for FY 2010 was HUF 217 million compared to a profit of HUF 212 million in FY 2009. Consolidated Balance Sheet Total consolidated asset value amounted to HUF 87.3 billion as of 31 December 2010, no material change compared to the period end of year 2009. Current assets include assets held for sale which comprises the net carrying value, less cost of sale, of a hotel and hospitality property in Hungary. The Group expects to sell these assets within the next twelve months. The amount of trade receivables grew by 6% from HUF 1.37 billion to HUF 1.44 billion. The amount of property, plant and equipment was HUF 76.4 billion at the end of year 2010, that is a HUF 0.3 billion decrease over the last 12 months as the amount of capital expenditures are lower than the amount of amortisation accounted for. From August 2009 the 50% investment in Egészségsziget Kft., our associate established to utilise the land acquired near Hotel Gellért became a fully consolidated subsidiary (before this date it was treated as an associate). CP Holdings purchased the remaining 50% shareholding in August 2009 and Danubius simultaneously entered into a put and call option agreement with a view to purchase this shareholding. The underlying purchase price paid by CP Holdings and the amount to be paid by Danubius under the option agreement is the same (EUR 1.7m). The option agreements provide for an option fee of EUR 100,000 and interest from August 2010. Total liabilities at the end of the fourth quarter 2010 was HUF 34.2 billion, a 1% decrease compared to 31 December 2009. The Group had EUR 91.0 million long-term loans, including short-term portion as of 31 December 2010. The value of shareholders’ equity increased by 1% compared to 31 December 2009 being the combined effect of the after tax loss of HUF 1.0 billion of previous 12 months, the significant, HUF 1.4 billion increase of translation reserve and HUF 0.1 billion increase in non-controlling interest.

Cash flow Net cash provided by operating activities in financial year of 2010 was HUF 4.3 billion, a considerable improvement compared to HUF 3.8 billion net cash provided in FY 2009, due to the positive result of working capital changes and lower amount of interest paid. Capital expenditure in FY 2010 was HUF 2.5 billion, a 18% increase compared to FY 2009, still reflecting our tight cash management program. During financial year of 2010 EUR 12.0 million loan has been drawn down and EUR 11.5 million repayment of borrowings has taken place.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the EU and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Hungarian National Standards on Auditing and applicable laws and regulations in Hungary. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

ANNUAL REPORT 2010 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements are presented in millions of Hungarian Forints (HUF), which is the functional currency of the Company. The consolidated financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention except for derivative financial instruments, which are measured at fair value (see Note 24). The significant accounting policies did not change compared to previous period and have been consistently applied by the Group enterprises,. The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 23 March 2011 and by the Supervisory Board on 23 March 2011. Use of estimates and assumptions The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Judgements made by management in the application of IFRS that have significant effect on the financial statements and estimates with a significant risk of material adjustment in the next year are discussed in Note 26. Basis of consolidation Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that currently are exercisable are taken into account. The consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of all inter-company transactions and balances, including any unrealised gains and losses. Associates Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies. Associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost. The Group’s investment includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment losses. The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the total recognised gains and losses and equity movements of associates after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent

38

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. Investments Investments in which the Group has less than 20% ownership are classified as available for sale financial assets and carried at cost, less provision for impairment, where such investments are unquoted and fair value cannot be reasonably estimated. Otherwise they are measured at fair value using the quoted bid price of the investment. Financial statements of foreign operations The functional currencies of the Group’s foreign operations differ from the functional currency of the Company. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisitions on or after 1 January 2005 (the effective date of revised IAS 21), are translated to HUF at foreign exchange rates effective at the reporting date. Goodwill and any fair value adjustments arising on acquisitions prior to 1 January 2005, the effective date of revised IAS 21, are treated as assets and liabilities of the acquiring entity and therefore are not retranslated. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to HUF at the exchange rate that approximates the rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are recognised directly in equity. When a foreign operation is disposed of, in part or in full, the relevant amount in the translation reserve is transferred to profit or loss. Foreign currency transactions Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated to the functional currency of the relevant Group company at the foreign exchange rate ruling at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are stated at fair value are translated to the measurement currency at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the statement of income. Non-derivative financial instruments Financial assets within the scope of IAS 39 are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity investments, or available for sale financial assets, as appropriate. When financial assets and liabilities are recognized initially, they are measured at fair value, plus, in the case of financial assets and liabilities not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The Group considers whether a contract contains an embedded derivative when the entity first becomes a party to it. The Group determines the classification of its financial assets and liabilities on initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year end. Purchases and sales of investments are recognized on settlement date which is the date when the asset is delivered to the counterparty Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss includes financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit and loss. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives, including separated

39

ANNUAL REPORT 2010 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

embedded derivatives, are also classified as held for trading unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments or a financial guarantee contract. Gains or losses on investments held for trading are recognised in the income statement. Financial assets may be designated at initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss if the following criteria are met: (i) the designation eliminates or significantly reduces the inconsistent treatment that would otherwise arise from measuring the assets or recognising gains or losses on them on a different basis; or (ii) the assets are part of a group of financial assets which are managed and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy. Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets which carry fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities and which the Group has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. After initial measurement, held to maturity investments are measured at amortised cost. This cost is computed as the amount initially recognised minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between the initially recognised amount and the maturity amount, less allowance for impairment. This calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums and discounts. Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the investments are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial measurement, loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method less any allowance for impairment. Amortised cost is calculated taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and includes fees that are an integral part of the effective interest rate and transaction costs. Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the loans and receivables are derecognised or impaired, as well as through the amortisation process. Available-for-sale financial investments Available-for-sale financial assets are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for- sale or are not classified in any of the three preceding categories. After initial measurement, available for sale financial assets are measured at fair value with unrealised gains or losses, other than impairment losses and foreign currency differences on available-for-sale monetary items, being recognised directly in equity. When the investment is disposed of, the cumulative gain or loss previously recorded in equity is recognised in the income statement.

40

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Fair value The fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity investments and available-for-sale financial assets is determined by reference to their quoted closing bid price at the reporting date. When there is no quoted market price, fair value is determined by reference to the current market value of another instrument which is substantially the same or is calculated based on the expected cash flows of the underlying net asset base of the investment. Classification and derecognition of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities carried on the consolidated statement of financial position include cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, trade and other accounts receivable and payable, long-term receivables, loans, borrowings, and investments. The accounting policies on recognition and measurement of these items are disclosed in the respective accounting policies found in this Note. Financial instruments (including compound financial instruments) are classified as assets, liabilities or equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. Interest, dividends, gains, and losses relating to a financial instrument classified as a liability, are reported as expense or income as incurred. Distributions to holders of financial instruments classified as equity are charged directly to equity. In case of compound financial instruments the liability component is valued first, with the equity component being determined as a residual value. Financial instruments are offset when the Company has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends to settle either on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The derecognition of a financial instrument takes place when the Group no longer controls the contractual rights that comprise the financial instrument, which is normally the case when the instrument is sold, or all the cash flows attributable to the instrument are passed through to an independent third party. Derivative financial instruments The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its interest rate risk exposures. Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related, a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative, and the combined instrument is not measured at fair value through profit or loss. Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value; attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below. Cash flow hedges Changes in the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument designated as a cash flow hedge are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the hedge is effective. To the extent that the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in equity remains there until the forecast transaction occurs, or became ineffective. When the hedged item is a non-financial asset or liability, the amount recognised in equity is transferred to the carrying amount of the asset when it is recognised. In other cases the amount recognised in equity is transferred to profit or loss in the same period that the hedged item affects profit or loss.

41

ANNUAL REPORT 2010 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Property, plant and equipment Items of property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation (see below) and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset, including borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of production overheads directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount and are recognised net within “other income” in profit or loss. Subsequent costs The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Depreciation Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment. The depreciation rates used by the Group are from 2% to 5% for buildings and leasehold improvements and 14.5% to 33% for machinery and equipment. Land and construction in progress are not depreciated. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reassessed at each reporting date. Leased assets Leases under which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Plant and equipment acquired by way of finance lease is measured upon initial recognition at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. Intangible assets Goodwill Business combinations are accounted for by applying the purchase method and are allocated to cash-generating units upon initial recognition. Acquisitions prior to 31 March 2004, the date that IFRS 3 became effective The Group applied IFRS 3 to business combinations that occurred on or after 31 March 2004. In respect of business combinations that occurred before that date goodwill represents the amount recorded previously by the Group in accordance with IAS 22 (original cost less accumulated amortisation to 31 December 2005) less accumulated impairments (if any).

42

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Acquisitions between 31 March 2004, the date that IFRS 3 became effective and 1 January 2010 when the revised IFRS 3 became effective For acquisitions on or after 31 March 2004, goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. When the excess is negative (negative goodwill), it is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Goodwill is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. In respect of equity accounted investees, the carrying amount of goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the investment. Acquisitions of non-controlling interests, prior to 1 January 2010, the date the revised IFRS 3 – Business combination became effective No goodwill was recognised when acquiring the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary. The difference between the acquisition price and the carrying value of the non-controlling interest was recorded directly in equity. Other Intangible assets Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses (see below). Where the Group has the legal right to use a particular property the value of these rights is amortised over the term for which the Group holds the rights. These include property rights on Margaret Island, Budapest which are being amortised over 100 years. Software is amortised on a straight line basis over its expected useful life of 3-4 years. Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated selling expenses. The cost of inventory is determined on the weighted average cost basis and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventory and bringing it to its existing location and condition.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash equivalents are liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows. Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are stated initially at their fair value and subsequently at their amortised cost less impairment losses (see below). Impairment Financial assets A financial asset is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset. An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount, and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate. An impairment loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset is calculated by reference to its current fair value. Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit risk characteristics. All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Any cumulative loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset recognised previously in equity is transferred to profit or loss. An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost and available-for-sale financial assets that are debt securities, the reversal is recognised in profit or loss. For available-for-sale financial assets that are equity securities, the reversal is recognised directly in other comprehensive income. Non-financial assets The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that are not yet available for use, recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable asset group that generates cash flows that largely are independent from other assets and groups. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro-rata basis.

44

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Imparment loss on property, plant and equipment is included in depreciation and amortisation, while impairment on trade and other receivables is included in other expenses. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Non-current assets held for sale Non-current assets (or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities) that are expected to be recovered primary through sale rather than through continuing use are classified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets (or components of a disposal group) are remeasured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Thereafter generally the asset (or disposal group) is measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss on a disposal group first is allocated to goodwill, and then to remaining assets and liabilities on a pro-rata basis, except that no loss is allocated to inventories, financial assets, deferred tax assets, employee benefit assets, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies. Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gains or losses on remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss. Provisions A provision is recognised in the statement of financial position when, as a result of a past event, the Group has a legal or constructive obligation that can be reliably measured and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. Trade and other payables Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value and then subsequently at amortised cost. Interest-bearing loans Interest bearing loans are recognised initially at fair value of the proceeds received, less attributable transaction costs. In subsequent periods, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any difference between proceeds received (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis.

45

ANNUAL REPORT 2010 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Repurchase of share capital When share capital recognised as equity is repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, including directly attributable costs, is recognised as a change in equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and presented as a deduction from total equity. Revenue recognition Goods sold and services rendered Room revenue (based on completed guest nights), food and beverage, spa revenue, winery, security and other departmental revenues are each recognised as the service is provided. Government grants Grants that compensate for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss as other income on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are recognised. Operating lease payments Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in the income statement as an integral part of the total lease expense. Finance lease payments Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Financial Income and expenses Financial income comprises interest income on funds invested, dividend income, gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets, and gains on hedging instruments that are recognised in profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method. Finance expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions, impairment and losses on hedging instruments that are recognised in profit or loss. All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method, except for borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis. Income taxes Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised in equity or other comprehensive income. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted, or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

46

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they probably will not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously. A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. Employee benefits Defined contribution plan The Company operates a defined contribution pension plan for Hungarian employees. Pension costs are charged against profit or loss as other personnel expenses in the period in which the contributions are payable. The assets of the fund are held in a separate trustee administered fund and the Group has no legal or constructive obligation with regard to the plan assets outside of its defined contributions. Defined benefit plans and other long-term employee benefits A defined benefit plan is a post-employment benefit plan other than a defined contribution plan. The Group operates defined post-employment benefit programmes for retirement and provides jubilee benefits. None of these programmes require contributions to be made to separately administered funds. The Group’s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The principal actuarial assumptions are the discount rate used to determine the net present value of cash outflows and the average salary increase. The average discount rate used was 7% for both 2010 and 2009, while the average salary increase was 5% at 31 December 2010 and 0% at 31 December 2009, respectively. Assumptions regarding future mortality and job leavers are based on published statistics and mortality tables. In Hungary the jubilee benefit scheme will cease by the end of 2011, therefore neither time value of money nor actuarial assumptions were considered in determining the estimated value of liability at the end of 2010. The cost of providing benefits is determined separately for each programme using the projected unit credit actuarial valuation method. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised as income or expense immediately in case of jubilee programs while gains and losses only outside the corridor of 10% are recognised as income or expense immediately in case of retirement plans. Past service costs, resulting from the introduction of, or changes to the defined benefit scheme are recognised as an expense immediately.

47

ANNUAL REPORT 2010 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Termination benefits Termination benefits are recognised as an expense when the Group is demonstrably committed, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to pay additional termination benefits to certain retirees. Earnings per share The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. Segment reporting Group operations are presented in respect of geographical areas identified by location of assets and operational segments that are separately evaluated for management reporting purposes. Management considers that the Group operates primarily in the hotel and hospitality segment. In Hungary the Group also has a security segment through its Preventív Security Zrt. subsidiary. A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that is engaged either in providing related products or services (operational segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other segments. Segment information is presented in respect of the Group’s operational and geographical segments. The Group’s primary format for segment reporting is based on geographic segments identified by location of assets. The operational segments are determined based on the Group’s management and internal reporting structure. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm’s length basis. Segment results, assets and liabilities include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets other than goodwill. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted as at 31 December 2010 A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are not yet effective for the year ended 31 December 2010, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements: Revised IAS 24 Related Party Disclosure (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011). The amendment exempts government-related entity from the disclosure requirements in relation to related party transactions and outstanding balances, including commitments, with (a) a government that has control, joint control or significant influence over the reporting entity; and (b) another entity that is a related party because the same government has control, joint control or significant influence over both the reporting entity and the other entity. The revised Standard requires specific disclosures to be provided if a reporting entity takes advantage of this exemption. The revised Standard also amends the definition of a related party which resulted in new relations being included in the definition, such as, associates of the controlling shareholder and entities controlled, or jointly controlled, by key management personnel.

48

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

Revised IAS 24 is not relevant to the Group’s financial statements as the Group is not a government-related entity and the revised definition of a related party is not expected to result in new relations requiring disclosure in the financial statements. Amendment to IFRIC 14 IAS 19 – The Limit on a Defined Benefit Asset, Minimum Funding Requirements and their Interaction (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011). The amendment of IFRIC 14 addresses the accounting treatment for prepayments made when there is also a minimum funding requirements (MFR). Under the amendments, an entity is required to recognize certain prepayments as an asset on the basis that the entity has a future economic benefit from the prepayment in the form of reduced cash outflows in future years in which MFR payments would otherwise be required. The amendments to IFRIC 14 is not relevant to the Group’s financial statements as the Group does not have any defined benefit plans with minimum funding requirements. IFRIC 19 Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010) The Interpretation clarifies that equity instruments issued to a creditor to extinguish all or part of a financial liability in a ‘debt for equity swap’ are consideration paid in accordance with IAS 39.41. The initial measurement of equity instruments issued to extinguish a financial liability is at the fair value of those equity instruments, unless that fair value cannot be reliably measured, in which case the equity instrument should be measured to reflect the fair value of the financial liability extinguished. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability (or part of the financial liability) extinguished and the initial measurement amount of equity instruments issued should be recognized in profit or loss. The Group did not issue equity to extinguish any financial liability during the current period. Therefore, the Interpretation will have no impact on the comparative amounts in the Group’s financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2010. Further, since the Interpretation can relate only to transactions that will occur in the future, it is not possible to determine in advance the effects the application of the Interpretation will have. Amendment to IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation – Classification of Rights Issues (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2010) The amendment requires that rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. The amendments to IAS 32 are not relevant to the Group’s financial statements as the Group has not issued such instruments at any time in the past.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

The Group determines whether goodwill is impaired on an annual basis or when there is an indication that it might be impaired. This requires an estimation of the recoverable value of the cash-generating units (CGUs) to which the goodwill is allocated. The higher of fair value, loss cost to sell or value in use is the base of any impairment. Value in use was determined by discounting the future cash flows generated from the continuing use of the unit and was based on the following key assumptions: - Cash flows were projected based on actual operating results and the 5-year business plan, which includes an annual 3 percent growth rate on average. Cash flows for a further indefinite period were extrapolated using a constant growth rate of 3 percent, which does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the industry. Management believes that this indefinite forecast period was justified due to the long-term nature of the Group’s hospitality business. - An average weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of 9.4 percent (2009: 9.8%) was applied in determining the net present value of future cash flows of cash generating units located in Hungary, while 8.9% was used in case of CGUs located in Czech Republic (2009: 9.1%). The discount rate was estimated based on the risk free interest rate, market risk premium, industry beta and company’s leverage. In 2010 and 2009 no impairment loss was recognised in respect of goodwill as the estimated recoverable amount of each CGU the goodwill relates to exceed its carrying amount. Management has identified the key assumptions for which there could be a reasonably possible change that could cause the carrying amount to exceed the recoverable amount. The table below shows the amount that these assumptions are required to change individually in order for the estimated recoverable amount to be equal to the carrying amount.

9. Investments in associates, Business combinations Egészségsziget Kft. From August 2009 the 50% investment in Egészségsziget Kft., our established associate to utilise the land acquired near Hotel Gellért became a fully consolidated subsidiary (before this date it was treated as an associate). In August 2009 CP Holdings purchased Kemenes Invest Kft. that holds the remaining 50% shareholding in Egészségsziget Kft. and Danubius simultaneously entered into a put and call option agreement with CP Holdings to purchase this shareholding in Kemenes Invest Kft. The Group consolidates Kemenes Invest Kft. in 100%. The amount to be paid by Danubius under the option agreement is EUR 1.7 million. The option agreements provide for an option fee of EUR 100,000 and 3 month EURIBOR + 1% interest from August 2010. Since the Company has the right to delay the exercise of the put option for up to a further two years and the option is not expected to be exercised in 2011 the obligation is considered non-current. The carrying and fair values of the assets and liabilities as of 31 August 2009 were as follows: Fair values Property, Plant and Equipment Current assets Liabilities Fair value of net assets

Acquisition of Piestany In 2002 a provision for legal cases of HUF 621 million was initially recognised at the acquisition of Piestany from which HUF 11 million was utilized in 2003 as a result of a lost legal case. At the end of 2006 HUF 163 million of the provision was released as it was no longer considered probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle certain cases. The timing of the resolution of the remaining cases is uncertain. The increase in the amount of provision in HUF terms is only due to foreign exchange translation effect. Employee benefits Group companies in Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia operate benefit programmes that provide lump sum benefits to employees after every five years’ employment and upon retirement. The amount of the benefits is determined by the base and average monthly salary and the length of service period. None of these programmes have separately administered funds. As of 31 December 2010 the Group has recognised a provision of HUF 354 million to cover its estimated obligation regarding future retirement and jubilee benefits payable to current employees. Being effective from 1 July 2008 the relevant part of Hungarian Collective Agreement was changed in order to provide more incentives for better performance instead of honour every 5 year employment without evaluating the actual performance. In 2010 HUF 155 million employee benefit payment, mainly jubilee benefit, was made against which the same amount of provision was used. Restructuring As part of the efficiency improvement project initiated in 2008 Danubius decided to further optimize its workforce. As the management is committed to these changes and the restructuring plan was communicated in detail to parties involved, the Group recognized a provision of HUF 217 million as of 31 December 2009 for future redundancy payments and related tax and contribution, out of which HUF 62 million was used during year 2010. Together with the HUF 22 million provision made at year end HUF 177 million was recognised as of 31 December 2010 to cover the estimated cost of restructuring in 2011.

13. Share Capital The registered share capital at December 31, 2010 and 2009 consists of 8,285,437 authorised, issued and fully paid ordinary shares, each of par value of HUF 1,000. The holders of ordinary shares are entitled to receive dividends as declared from time to time and are entitled to one vote per share at general meetings of the Company.

14. Reserves Capital reserve The capital reserve was established in 1991, when the company was privatized and transformed to a public limited company. Treasury shares The reserve for treasury shares comprises the cost of the Company’s shares held by the Group. As 31 December 2010 and 2009 the Group held 374,523 of the Company’s shares, purchased at a cost of HUF 1,162 million. Translation reserve The translation reserve comprises all foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations. Retained Earnings Dividends are available for distribution from the Company’s retained earnings calculated according to Hungarian Accounting Law. The amount available for distribution as dividends at December 31, 2010 is HUF 25,327 million (2009: HUF 24,576 million). If dividends are paid to non-resident shareholders, a withholding tax of up to 20% must be paid. The rate applicable is dependent on the country of residence of the shareholder, the period in which the dividend is paid and the number of shares held. The withholding tax is also payable by individual shareholders who are resident in Hungary (resident legal entities are exempt).

In 2009 mid year the Hungarian government changed the corporate tax rate from 16% to 19% effective from 1 January 2010 together with the withdrawal of 4% solidarity surplus tax. In 2010 the Hungarian government changed the corporate tax rate from 19% to 10%, to be applied only to taxable profit under HUF 500 million, and effective from 2013 to be applied to all taxable profit. In 2007 S.C. Balneoclimaterica S.A. recognised a deferred tax gain of HUF 251 million due to the revaluation of hotel properties for Romanian tax purposes. In 2009 HUF 224 million deferred tax asset had to be reversed, due to the change of statutory corporate income tax law as the revaluation of properties made in years following 2004 cannot be treated as tax written down allowances.

Léčebné Lázne ˇ a.s. records a provision for repairs and maintenance in its Czech statutory accounts related to the future repair expenses of its premises, which is a deductible expense in Czech tax legislation. This provision is not included in these IFRS financial statements and a deferred tax liability of HUF 211 million is set up for this temporary difference. As at 31 December 2010 HUF 1,237 million deferred tax liabilities are recognised in respect of temporary differences between the tax base of Property, plant and equipment (primarily land and hotel buildings) and their carrying amount recorded in these financial statements. At 31 December 2010 tax loss carry forwards of HUF 401 million can be utilised over indefinite period of time.

20. Earnings per share The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of HUF 945 million in 2010 (2009: a net loss of HUF 801 million) and the weighted average number of qualifying ordinary shares outstanding was 7,910,914 during 2010 and 2009. 31 December 2010

22. Pension Plans and other post-employment benefits The Group’s employees participate in state pension plans to which employers and employees are required by law to pay contributions based on a percentage of each employee’s employment earnings. The pension liability resides with the state in Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Romania. The Group has a defined contribution pension plan in addition to the state plan, which is available for all Hungarian employees after six months employment. The Group pays contributions equal to 5% of the salary of employees who are members of the fund (2009: 5%). The contribution expense in 2010 was HUF 260 million (2009: HUF 268 million). The assets of the fund are held in separate trustee administered funds and are not included in these financial statements. The Group also has a Health Fund, which is available for all Hungarian employees after six months employment. The Group pays contributions equal to 1% of the salary plus HUF 4,000 per month for employees who are members of the fund. The total contribution expense was HUF 166 million in 2010 (2009: HUF 174 million). The assets of the fund are held in separate trustee administered funds and are not included in these financial statements. There are no Group pension or health plans for employees of the Czech, Slovak and Romanian subsidiaries. See employee benefit section of Note 12 for further details of other post-employment benefits.

Includes the total amount of cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables in the statement of financial position, except for recoverable taxes and duties. Includes the fair value of derivatives 3 Includes the total amount of trade accounts payable, other payables and accruals, interest bearing loans and borrowings recognised in the statement of financial position, except for taxes payable. 2

Carrying value and fair value for all of the Group’s financial assets at 31 December 2010 and 2009 are deemed to be equal. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other current receivables and payables and other liabilities approximates their relative fair values due to the relatively short-term maturity. Derivative assets and liabilities are carried at fair value. All non-current borrowings have floating interest rates, so their fair values are not significantly different from their amortised cost and consequently carrying value is deemed to approximate fair value. B) Financial risk management The Group has documented its financial risk management policy. This policy sets out the Group’s overall business strategies and its risk management philosophy. The Group’s overall financial risk management programme seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial assets and liabilities. The Board of Directors provides written principles for overall financial risk management and written policies covering specific areas, such as market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk), credit risk, liquidity risk, use of derivative financial instruments and investing excess cash. Such written policies are reviewed annually by the Board of Directors and periodic reviews are undertaken to ensure that the Group’s policy guidelines are complied with. Risk management is carried out by the Finance Departments under the policies approved by the Board of Directors. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to develop a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. I) Credit risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The Group has adopted a policy of giving credit to counterparties with good payment history and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The expense of individual hotels’ exposure and the credit ratings of their counterparties are continuously monitored. Credit exposure is controlled by the counterparty limits that are continuously reviewed by credit managers. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers, spread across diverse industries and geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of customers and advance payment is encouraged and enforced.

62

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (All amounts in million HUF)

The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if they are related entities. At the end of 2010 HUF 432 million (2009: HUF 506 million), or approximately 30 percent of the Group’s total trade receivables, is attributable to sales transactions with the top 30 customers. However, geographically there is no concentration of credit risk. The carrying amount of trade receivables and other financial assets recorded in the financial statements represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking into account of the value of any collateral obtained. II) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. The Group has yearly, monthly and weekly cash flow forecasts and continuously monitors liquidity. For cash flow optimisation purposes at the end of 2009 and early 2010 the repayment of approximately half of the borrowings has been rescheduled, the original amount of instalments in 2011 will be reduced by half. At the reporting date the Group has the following unused loan facilities: 31 December 2010 Overdraft Long-term loan

It is not expected that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier, or at significantly different amounts, however negotiations are currently in progress with financial institutions to modify the current loan repayment scehdule in order to postpone part of the repayable amounts due within 2 years.

III) Market risk Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return on risk. i) Currency risk The Group is exposed to currency risk on sales and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, primarily the Euro, but also Pound Sterling (GBP). At the reporting date, the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities denominated in currencies other than the respective group entities’ functional currencies are as follows:

The Group's sales prices are primarily quoted in Euro and income is received in foreign currency or local currency. This provides a natural hedge against foreign exchange movements for the interest and capital installments of loans and borrowings the majority of which are denominated in EUR. Management periodically reviews the merits of entering into foreign currency hedging contracts or other derivative products. Based on the approval of Board of Directors the Group may use forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk in respect of sales revenues, with a maturity of less than one year from the reporting date. The effect of such hedges is not material in 2010 and 2009. Foreign currency sensitivity The following strengthening of the Euro against each of the following currencies at 31 December would have increased (decreased) profit and loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates and margins, remain constant. When analysing foreign currency sensitivity the changes of functional currencies of operational segments against the euro are monitored, as the euro has the highest possible exposure on the Company’s operational performance.

31 December 2009

The weakening of the Euro against the above currencies by the above shifts at 31 December would have had the equal but opposite effect, on the basis that all other variables remain constant. ii) Interest rate risk The interest rates for all bank borrowings are floating and determined by 3 months EURIBOR + margin between 0.6% to 3.5% in Czech Republic and Slovakia, 0.75% to 4.25% in Hungary and 4.5% in Romania. The weighted average margin is 2.22% at 31 December 2010 (2009:2.06%), while the average rate of interest is 3.2% (2009: 2.8%). Since June 2006 the Company has used an interest rate swap to manage the relative level of its exposure to cash flow interest rate risk associated with floating interest-bearing borrowings. The Company’s interest rate swap (Collar) agreement expired on 31 December 2010. The agreement in effect as of 31 December 2009 had a notional amount of EUR 27.8 million and had a 3 months EURIBOR floor of 3.35% and cap of 4.75%. Having this instrument meant that the Company did not have to pay more than 4.75% interest + margin for the covered amount, but cannot pay less than 3.35% interest + margin. As the underlying loan facilities have been rescheduled and the collar agreement was not modified accordingly, the collar was not amortising in line with the underlying loan facilities, therefore, starting from year 2008 no hedge accounting was applied, any change in its fair value was included in the profit or loss. The Collar agreement was gross settled, the fair value of this Collar agreement was a liability of HUF 158 million as of 31 December 2009. Interest rate sensitivity 3 months EURIBOR was 1.013% as of 31 December 2010 and 0.700% as of 31 December 2009. A change of 11 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased (decreased) profit and loss by the amounts shown below. Starting from year 2008 the Collar agreement is considered not effective for IFRS reporting purposes, hence the change in the fair value of the Collar agreement affects the Company’s profit and loss. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates and interest margins, remain constant. The changes of interest rates effect only the profit and loss of the Company and have no effect on equity. Profit and Loss 31 December 2010 11 basis points increase

C) Capital Management The Group’s policy is to maintain a capital base which is sufficient to maintain investor and creditor confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The Board seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position. There were no changes in the Group’s approach and processes to capital management during the year. The Corporate Act requires that the equity of the Company has to be higher than two third of the share capital, otherwise the share capital should be decreased or transformation of the Company into other legal form should be undertaken.

26. Key sources of estimation uncertainty The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are described below. Deferred tax assets The Group recognizes deferred tax assets in its statement of financial position relating to tax loss carry forwards. The recognition of such deferred tax assets is subject to the future utilization of tax loss carry forwards. The utilization of certain amounts of such tax loss carry forwards might be subject to statutory limitations and is dependent on the amount of future taxable income. If the future taxable income is significantly less than the amount estimated the deferred tax asset may need to be written down (see Note 19). Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets The carrying amounts of the Group’s property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Such value is measured based on discounted projected cash flows. The most significant variables in determining cash flows are discount rates, terminal values and the period for which cash flow projections are made, as well as the assumptions and estimates used to determine the cash inflows and outflows. For property, plant and equipment the recoverable amount is determined to be the fair value rather than the value in use. The estimated fair value of the Group’s assets or group of assets significantly exceeds its net carrying amount. The Group considers that the accounting estimate related to asset impairment is significant due to the need to make assumptions when estimating the recoverable amount and the material impact that recognising impairment could have on the results of the Group. See Notes 7 and 8 for more information. Depreciation Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are recorded at cost and are depreciated or amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The determination of the useful lives of assets is based on historical experience with similar assets. The appropriateness of the estimated useful lives is reviewed annually. Due to the significance of property, plant and equipment in the asset base of the Group, the impact of any changes in these assumptions could be material to the results of operations (see Note 7 and 8). Provisions The Group establishes provisions where management considers that it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle obligations arising from past events. The estimated amounts of provisions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates are recognised in the income statement and such changes could be material to the net results reported in a particular year. See Note 12 for more information.

27. Post Balance Sheet events No event occurred after the balance sheet date that would have material effect on the financial statements presented.

Report on the 2011 business targets

Report on the 2011 business targets The hotel industry remains in a challenging situation in year 2011. Hotel industry investments carried out in the past decade significantly increased hotel capacity in the Central-East European region and demand is only expected to adjust after several years. Hotels are experiencing fierce competition for retaining market share and beside a rates war, increasing efficiency, cutting and streamlining costs play a major role. Danubius’ plans for 2011 fully reflect its strong response to these tough market conditions. Retaining the effect of the cost cutting measures undertaken in 2009 as a reaction to the crisis and a further increase in cost efficiency whilst continuing to provide our guests with our usual high quality is a key goal for the Danubius group in the year 2011. The operating performance of the Group is at all times influenced by the strengthening and weakening of the forint and other national currencies compared to the euro. When preparing the 2011 budget, management calculated with a 275 HUF/EUR rate. The Company has forecast a wage increase that is lower than the rate of inflation. Generally, 4.0% inflation and at the time of preparing the budget a low 1% increase of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) were prognosticated, however current forecasts now suggest a GDP growth of 3% in 2011 which, if achieved, would be a positive sign of economic recovery. In our Hungarian hotels, demand from the major guest segments did not change significantly in 2010, however there was a considerable drop in the main segments in the year 2009. Budapest saw the largest drop in business and meeting tourism and groups of leisure tourists. We are not expecting a further decrease in these segments in 2011. On the contrary, we are starting to rebuild lost turnover this year, mainly from volume increase. The number of guests arriving from the German markets has been dropping for the past years. We trust that as a result of the renewal of the market representation in Germany we will be able to reach out to wellness and business guests too. The majority of British guests arrive to Budapest for leisure and business purposes, and their number is largely dependent on the air traffic between the two countries. Hungary has become a member of the Schengen group, which has a positive effect on West-European demand; in addition customers from former Soviet Union countries are expected to increase further in 2011. Alongside the expected slight increase in foreign demand, a further expansion of domestic guests can be expected, although the rate of increase will somewhat slow down as, due to changes in the tax law, less holiday vouchers are expected to be available for employees. All these factors are expected to lead to a moderate 1.2% increase of occupancy from 57.2% in 2010 to 58.4%. The implementation of new operating software will continue in 2011 and 2012 with the aim of providing greater efficiency in the fields of operations, sales, guest relations and the economic and financial area. In addition, the company is focusing on increasing the turnover through electronic sales channels, especially through our website, which showed an impressive improvement in 2010 with the highest average daily rate (ADR) achieved. A further goal is to achieve an adequate ratio of leisure and business guests in the city hotels while in the hotels of the Danubius Health Spa Resort brand we plan to achieve better results by introducing new products and new concepts like family friendly hotel programs. In spite of the current strong competition on the market, our objective is slightly to raise prices in euro. Besides monitoring the competition, our rates are flexibly adjusted to the requirements of market demand. Special attention is paid in our sales strategy to driving cross selling to keep as much business as possible within the Company and the Group. This is strengthened by the application of the Central Reservation System (CSR) in more and more hotels.

In addition to maximising revenues, minimizing costs will continue to have a special role in 2011. Seasonality is of great importance in both our Budapest and country hotels, and so we have adjusted the constant hotel headcount to the staff requirement in the low occupancy months and at times when the number of guests goes up, we provide the expected high quality services by employing temporary manpower. Due to the significant headcount reduction and cut back of personnel expenses in previous years, Danubius management plans to increase wages by 2% on average and will compensate the majority of employees for the loss caused by new personnel tax legislation. Considering the 1.2% increase in occupancy and a moderate increase of average rates in HUF terms, we plan approx. 2.5% revenue increase on the Hungarian market in 2011, which alongside the increase of personnel expenses and strict control of other fixed costs will result in the slight increase of departmental profit as opposed to 2010. In Czech Republic we expect that the drop in German market will bottom out and a slow recovery will start in 2011, due to the significant, 4% growth of the German economy in previous year. However the number of insurance paid German guests will be lower by approximately 10-15%. The Czech subsidiary also expects an increasing number of guests via electronic channels, including the new Danubius web site. The potential future markets for the Czech hotels are guests from the domestic market, the surrounding countries, Israel and the former Soviet states, although visa obligations could make sales difficult. Considering all factors in the market, the number of sold rooms is expected to decrease by almost 2%, while the average room rate is expected to be on 2010 level. The lower amount of revenues cannot be fully compensated by cost reductions, therefore operating performance is expected to decrease slightly, however our Czech subsidiary will still be the biggest contributor to Group’s operational profit in 2011. The impact of quality enhancing developments completed in the hotels in Slovakia and Piestany is reflected in the 2011 budget expectations of the hotels. The number of domestic guests financed by social insurance companies is expected to decline further, at the same time, shorter leisure stays by Slovakian guests will become more popular and the number of guests from the Arabic and Russian markets are expected to go up. However, the current Arabian political difficulties can easily erode our positive expectations. Alongside a 4% increase in average occupancy, we expect average rates to go up by 1.5% in 2011. As a result of more revenues, the budget indicates an improvement of both gross and net operating profit. In Romania the significant lagging behind in the number of business and conference guests in 2009 and 2010 is likely to recover partly in 2011. The spa and leisure guests still give a stable revenue and profit contribution to the company. In 2010 the weather conditions and the implementation of new entrance system contributed highly to the revenue increase of the spa lake operations and we expect these revenues to increase slightly in 2011 Despite the fact that the Romanian economy is still facing very serious difficulties and domestic tourism will not receive enough incentives from the government, we expect the competitiveness of the hotels in Sovata will allow our profit level to be maintained, even taking account of the minimum wage increase required by the government. In view of the above mentioned, we plan to increase slightly the 2010 Group level operating revenues and operating profits in 2011, which means maintaining the reduced rate cost base from 2009. The financing opportunities limited by the economic crises, the extended return period and the difficult business climate have forced the management of Danubius Nyrt. to distribute investment sources carefully. Among planned investments the implementation of the new operating software is a significant element. In Hungary, the Company does not plan any significant reconstructions in the hotels and restaurants other than the necessary maintenance and certain important quality improving works in 2011.

However, in Czech Republic the Maria Spa Project will be completed to provide 20 new rooms, spa facilities and linking corridors. In Piestany, the entire reconstruction of the balneotherapy section will be completed. The management of the Group aims to support developments to minimise energy use and provide extra services required by the customers that generate revenues. The size of such investment programs will depend on business performance and financing sources. The Group’s liquidity position in the continuing testing market will be kept under strict control. Our 2011 budget is subject to the market and economic environment not deteriorating significantly during the entire year, despite the uncertain economic and international political outlook. Certain factors e.g. increasing energy prices are mounting up further difficulties to retaining profitability. Besides the planned change in operating profit, interest costs are expected to grow owing to the increasing EURIBOR rates, but the amount of outstanding loans is expected to remain around the level of the previous year. Through the loan translations, the recent extreme changes in the forint/euro rate may considerably affect the financial profit and thus the profit before tax. The overall cost base of Danubius has been considerably reduced thanks to the actions made as a reaction to the challenges of the economic crisis. This also gives a profit opportunity to the Company when revenues start to grow again. However, it should be emphasized that the outlook for 2011 remains extremely uncertain due, on the one hand, to the increasing trend of late booking and unpredictable developments in the international and domestic economies, together with the political situation of Arabic countries. On the other hand, the continued recovery of the German economy and the predicted pick up in Hungary, would be positive features for tourism and our business.
