1. Company Information
1.1 General Information
The Company’s name is “Independent Power Transmission Operator S.A.” and its distinctive title in Greek is “ADMIE S.A.”
or “ADMIE”. For its relations and transactions abroad, the Company uses the name “Independent Power Transmission
Operator S.A.” and the distinctive title “IPTO”.
The company’s seat is the Municipality of Athens.
The Company performs the duties and operates in compliance with Law 4001/2011 and the Grid Control Code for the
Hellenic Electricity Transmission System (HETS) as well as the operation license of HETS.
The aim of the Company is the operation, exploitation, maintenance and development of the Hellenic Electricity
Transmission System, so as to ensure the country’s supply with electricity in an adequate, safe, efficient and reliable
way. Furthermore, IPTO, as the System Operator, plays a vital role in the electricity market regarding both the country’s
supply and the market operation in compliance with the principles of transparency, equality and free competition.
The prerequisite for the successful exercise of IPTO’s role is the assurance of independence and impartiality of IPTO
towards all System Users and Participants in the Electricity Market during the performance of its duties, continuously
trying to achieve transparency, equal treatment and securing the confidentiality of the information IPTO manages. The
safeguarding of this condition arises from IPTO’s institutional role in the electricity market and the strict legal and
regulatory demands governing its operation.
The main factor for the observance of the above in the daily operation of IPTO is its personnel as it is responsible for
observing on a daily basis the obligations arising for the company in accordance with the assigned role and duties.
1.2 Background of establishment - Main milestones
The Independent Power Transmission Operator is a 100% PPC SA subsidiary, set up in compliance with the EU Directive
2009/72/EC regarding the legal and functional unbundling of the monopoly Transmission and Distribution functions of
vertically integrated undertakings participating in the electricity sector. The provisions of the Directive were transposed
in the Greek legislation with Law 4001/2011, which stipulates the establishment of IPTO according to the Independent
Transmission Operator (ITO) model.
Based on the provisions of the said law, IPTO assumed on 1st February 2012 the role of the Operator of the Hellenic
Electricity Transmission System, under which it performs the duties of operation, control, maintenance and development
of the Electricity Transmission System and interconnections, the operation of the Electricity Market with the exception of
the Day Ahead Scheduling and the RES management, as well as the connection of new users. It is noted that IPTO has
assumed the corresponding duties and operations that were previously assigned to the Hellenic Transmission System
Operator (HTSO) and the PPC’s Transmission Basic Unit (BU) as the System Owner. IPTO, therefore, by incorporating the
respective PPC and HTSO Transmission Sectors into a distinct company to which all relevant operations, personnel and
fixed assets of the Hellenic Electricity Transmission System have been transferred, secures the uninterrupted supply of
the interconnected system with electricity according to the principles of sustainability and promotes the development of
free competition in the Hellenic Electricity Market with transparency and equal access for all users.
7
IPTO’s compliance with the requirements governing the Independent Transmission Operator model was certified by
the Regulatory Authority for Energy (RAE) with its final decision in December 2012. The following graph shows the basic
milestones of the company’s establishment procedure

3. Technical Infrastructure
• Interconnected Electricity Transmission System
The Hellenic Interconnected Electricity Transmission System consists of 400kV and 150kV Transmission Lines, Extra High
Voltage Centers and 150kV-20kV Substations.
The Transmission Lines, with a total length of 11,144 km, are divided into overhead, 10,901km, submarine, 155 km, and
underground, 88 km. The underground Transmission Lines are installed mainly around and inside the big urban centers
of Athens and Thessaloniki.
The Continental Region is connected via submarine cables with the Ionian Islands (Corfu, Lefkada, Kephalonia, Zakynthos)
and Andros. At the same time, the procedures for the interconnection of more islands from the Cyclades with the
Interconnected System continue (Tinos, Syros, Mykonos, Paros, Naxos).
Furthermore, the Transmission System includes 20 Extra High Voltage Centers (400/150/30kV) and 293 substations of
150kV-20kV (step-up, step-down, switching and connection).
• Local interconnections
16
The backbone of the Hellenic Interconnected Electricity Transmission System consists of three overhead double-circuit
400 kV lines, which transmit electricity mainly from the power plants of Western Macedonia and are considered of major
importance for the whole country. This is the region where approximately 50% of the country’s electricity is generated
which in turn is transmitted to the major electricity consumption centers in Central and South Greece, where 65% of the
electricity is consumed.
• International interconnections
The Hellenic Interconnected Electricity Transmission System is connected with the Transmission Systems of Albania,
Bulgaria, FYROM, Italy (Direct Current of 400 kV) and Turkey. The above interconnections significantly contribute to the
operation safety of the Transmission System and the development of electricity trading exchanges with said countries and
the wider SE Europe.

Major risks – Uncertainties
The company’s activities are affected by various types of
risks. In particular:
Interest rate risk: The main risk arising from the management of debt liabilities is focused on the financial results and cash flows as a consequence of the interest
rate fluctuation.
Merchandise price risk: The prices of the key materials
used by the company both for the System operation
as well as for its development are determined by the
international commodity markets and as a result the
company is exposed to the fluctuation risk of the relevant prices.
32
Credit Risk: The Company is exposed to a significant credit risk for trade receivables. At the same time, the more
general financial conditions negatively affect the available liquidity due to payment difficulties the customers face. In this framework, the company implements
an assurance policy for the revenues via advance payments or guarantees.
Liquidity Risk: The liquidity risk is related to the need for
adequate cash flow for the company’s operation and development. The company manages the liquidity risk by
monitoring and programming its cash flows and acts
appropriately to ensure as much as possible sufficient
credit limits and cash flows and at the same time trying
to achieve extension of the average maturity of its debt
and the diversification of its funding sources.
Risk from the absence of fixed assets insurance: The
company does not have insurance on its fixed assets in
operation and as a result a possible significant damage
of its assets may have an impact on its profitability given that it is self-insured. Moreover, materials and spare
parts as well as liabilities against third parties are not insured. The company examines the possibility of holding
a tender to choose an insurance company for the insurance coverage of its assets and third party liabilities.
Credit Rating Risk: Following the international financial crisis, International Rating Agencies apply stricter criteria
regarding the certification of liquidity capacity and, as a
result, even if a company has ensured, inter alia, a reliable coverage plan of its capital needs, it faces the risk
of a rating downgrade if it does not fulfil the new stricter criteria.
Regulatory Risk: Possible amendments or / and additions
of the regulatory framework governing the Electricity
market both in application of the provisions of the European legislation as well as of the provisions of the Memorandum signed between the Greek state, the IMF and
the ECB can significantly affect the company’s operations and financial results.
Litigations risk: The company is defendant in several legal
proceedings, whose negative outcome will have significant impact on the company’s financial results.
Risk from the amendment of tax and other regulations:
Possible amendment of tax and other regulations can
affect the company’s financial results.
Risk from regulated rate on return on activities: The System’s regulated returns on investments can negatively
impact the company’s profitability if they do not cover the
reasonable return of the relevant invested capitals.
Company is subject to certain laws and regulations applicable to companies of the broader public sector. As
long as the Greek state, as the key shareholder, holds
51% of the share capital of PPC and its subsidiaries, IPTO
SA shall continue to be considered, with regard to certain
sectors, a company of the Greek Public Sector. Its operations, therefore, will continue to be subject to laws and
provisions generally applicable to the Greek Public Sector, affecting thus specific procedures, such as, indicatively and not restrictively, salaries, ceiling of fees, hiring
and firing of personnel or the procurement procedures.
The said laws and provisions, in particular in the framework of the current financial conjecture and the relevant
decisions of the Central Administration may limit its operational flexibility and negatively and significantly affect
its financial results. The application of the provisions of
Laws 3833/2010 and 4024/2011 may produce significant
negative consequences on the company’s operation. It
is noted that the company does not have the capability of
hiring or keeping experienced staff and the loss of specialized staff can adversely affect its ability to prepare and
implement its strategy.

1. Establishment, Organization
and Operation of the Company
The Independent Power Transmission System SA (IPTO SA
or ADMIE SA or the company) is a public limited company
(SA) which was established in Greece in 2000*1, and its operation is governed by the Greek law.
The aim of the company is to implement the activities and
perform the duties of the Owner and Operator of the Hellenic Electricity Transmission System (ESMIE in Greek) as
set forth in L.4001/2011. In particular the company’s aim is
the operation, maintenance and development of the Electricity Transmission System, so as to secure the country’s
supply with electricity in a safe, efficient and reliable way.
In the framework of the above, the company performs the
duties and operates in accordance with the provisions of
articles of chapters A to C of the Fourth Part of L.4001/2011,
and the delegated acts, and mainly of the Grid Control Code
of the Hellenic Electricity Transmission System and the operation licenses of the Transmission System granted to it.
The seat of IPTO SA is at 89, Dyrrahiou and Kifissou Street,
104-43, Athens, Greece and the duration of the company is

Spin-off of activities of DESMIE SA (now LAGIE)
and their transfer to IPTO SA
46
Based on article 99, L.4001/2011, DESMIE SA proceeded
with the spin off and transfer of certain of its activities to
IPTO SA in 2011. More specifically, article 99, L.4001/2011
stipulated that DESMIE SA transfers to IPTO SA, within three months as from this law entering into force, the
organizational units and activities related to the management, operation, development and maintenance of the
Transmission System previously assigned to it, including
the corresponding fixed asses and the personnel of DESMIE SA working in said activities which comprise the
Transmission Sector of DESMIE SA. The decision of the
Minister of Environment, Energy and Climate Change stipulates that the three-month deadline for the completion of
the spin-off can be extended for 6 more months. The activities transferred are: (a) the system operation and control; (b) the system development and maintenance; (c)
the settlement of imbalances; (d) the trading and regulated matters, with the exception of the activities of case (i),
paragraph 2, article 118, L.4001/2011; and (e) measurements. The above transfer of these DESMIE SA activities
was carried out via a spin-off, pursuant to the provisions
of L.4001/2011, articles 68 to 79, Codified Law 2190/1920,
as well as articles 1 to 5, L.2166/1993, of all DESMIE SA assets under the activities of paragraph 1, with specific deviations related to accounting, taxation, financial, legal and
regulatory issues. The spin-off was completed on 1 February 2012 (note 4).
3. Basis for presentation of financial
statements
ed. There are no Standards applied before the starting date
of their application.
3.2. Significant accounting judgments
and estimates of the Management
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may
ultimately differ from those estimates. The principle judgments and estimates referring to events the development
of which could significantly affect the items of the financial
statements during the forthcoming twelve month period
are as follows:
Post-retirement benefits
All employees and pensioners of the PPC Group are entitled to supply of energy at reduced tariffs. Such reduced
tariffs to pensioners are considered to be obligation of
IPTO to the parent company and are calculated at the current value of the future retirement benefits deemed to have
accrued at year-end based on the employees’ earning retirement benefit rights steadily throughout their working
period. The above mentioned obligations are calculated on
the basis of financial and actuarial assumptions. Further
details regarding the basic assumptions and estimates are
included in Note 31.
Fair values and useful lives of tangible fixed assets
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS),
as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board
(IASB), as well as in accordance with their relevant Interpretations, as issued by the IASB Interpretations Committee and
adopted by the European Union (EU) and obligatory applied
for fiscal years ended 31 December 2012.
The company carries its tangible fixed assets at revalued
amounts (estimated fair values) as determined by an independent firm of appraisers. Independent appraisals are
performed periodically (every 3-5 years). The determination
of the fair values of tangible fixed assets requires making
assumptions, estimates and judgments with respect to the
ownership, the value in use and the existence of any economic, operational and physical obsolescence of the tangible fixed assets. Furthermore, the Management has to
make certain estimates with respect to the total and remaining useful lives of depreciable assets, which are subject to a periodic review. The total useful lives, as appraised,
are included in Note 3.4.
Basis of preparation of Financial Statements
Provisions for risks
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments that
are stated at fair value, and the principle of the continuation of the company’s operation. The financial statements
are presented in thousand Euros, with all amounts rounded to the nearest thousand except when otherwise indicat-
The company is establishing provisions for risks concerning
claims by third parties against it which might lead to an outflow of resources for their settlement. Provisions are established based on the claimed amount and the possible outcome of the trial. Description of the risks and reference to
the amount of relevant provisions are included in Note 25.
3.1. Basis for presentation
Statement of Compliance
Impairment of fixed assets
The company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that its long-term assets may be
impaired. The determination of whether such indications
exists requires the Management to make assumptions,
admissions and judgments with respect to external and internal factors that may affect the recoverability of its assets
as well as judgments on the determination of its independent cash generating units. Further details regarding judgments and estimates are included in note 13.
Provision for income tax and acknowledgment of deferred tax obligations
Income tax liabilities for the current and prior years are
measured at the amounts expected to be paid to the taxation authorities, using the tax rates that have been enacted by the balance sheet date. Provision for income taxes
includes taxes reported in the respective income tax statement and the potential additional tax assessments that
may be imposed by the tax authorities upon settlement of
the open tax years on the basis of the findings of prior tax
audits. Therefore, the final settlement of the income taxes might differ from the income taxes that have been accounted for in the financial statements. Deferred tax obligations are recognized on carried forward tax losses to the
extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will occur
to offset carried forward tax losses. Deferred tax receivables that are recognized require management to make assessments as to the time and level of realization of future
taxable profits.
4. Transfer of transmission system
operation activities from DESMIE SA
(now LAGIE) to IPTO SA
Based on article 99, L.4001/2011, the societe anonyme trading under the name “Hellenic Transmission System Operator SA” (HTSO or DESMIE SA in Greek), set up with Presidential Decree 328/2000 pursuant to article 14, L.2773/1999,
transfers to IPTO SA within three months as from this law
entering into force (up to 22 November 2011) the organizational units and activities related to the management, operation, development and maintenance of the Transmission
System previously assigned to it, including the corresponding fixed asses and the personnel of DESMIE SA working in
said activities which comprise the Transmission Sector of
DESMIE SA. The activities transferred are:
a) the system operation and control;
b) the system development and maintenance;
c) the settlement of imbalances;
d) the trading and regulated matters, with the exception of the activities of case (i), paragraph 2, article 118,
L.4001/2011; and
e) measurements.
The deadline stipulated in the first point can be extended for
additional six (6) months with the decision of the Minister of
Environment, Energy and Climate Change.
1. With regard to legal relations, rights and obligations arising from the transferred units and activities under paragraph 1, this transfer equals succession in interest and
with the registration of the relevant approval decision in
the Societe Anonyme Registry, DESMIE SA is relieved
from any obligation it may have against a third party, including the State and Social Security Funds, which are
assigned to IPTO SA pursuant to the above. It is also relieved from any obligations, titles or rights that are not
transferred by law or contract. Pending trials continue
ipse jure by IPTO SA without being violently interrupted
and requiring a statement by IPTO for their continuation
or repetition.
2. The above mentioned transfer of DESMIE SA is realized
through a spin-off according to the provisions of this law,
articles 68 to 70 of Codified Law 2190/1920 and articles
1 to 5, L.2166/1993 of all assets of DESMIE SA belonging the activities of paragraph 1, with the following deviations:
(a) Subsidies of fixed investments reflected in the balance sheet of DESMIE SA either in the capital or the
item “subsidies of fixed investments” can be transferred to IPTO SA.
(b) Zero real estate and cars transfer tax are not required
to be submitted to the competent tax office.
(c) D
ESMIE SA and IPTO SA are relieved from the obligation to pay pro rata and fixed notary public fees for any
act for which a notary public deed is required, such as
the compilation and amendment of articles of association and the preparation of the spin-off and transfer contract. The other notary public fees are limited
to half of what is stipulated in the applicable legislation. No lawyer is required to be present when the
relevant acts are prepared and signed.
(d) The transfer of assets and liabilities, including the
transfer of rights in rem for real estate, cars and other
movable property is carried out ipse jure by just registering the spin-off contract in the Societe Anonyme
Registry. No regulatory or administration approvals, certificates, solemn declarations and graphs are
required for the transfer of real estate, even for the
ones acquired with expropriation or are located in
47
frontier regions, notwithstanding any other general
or special provision. Conveyances and other, under
the applicable provisions, required registrations for
the transfer of rights in rem have a certifying character and are carried out via the registration of the spinoff contract in the Societe Anonyme Registry, without paying any duty or fee for a third party, including
the fees, fixed and pro rata fees, allowances or other duties for non stipendiary or stipendiary land registries or cadastre offices notwithstanding any applicable provision.
(e) Differences in value adjustment of fixed and other
assets arising from the application of other laws remain in DESMIE SA.
(f) IPTO SA is subrogated in all general rights, obligations
and legal relations of DESMIE SA, related to the transferred sector under the above, and enjoys the taxation privileges and exemptions enacted in favour of
DESMIE SA.
(g) Administrative licenses and approvals of any type
granted to DESMIE SA regarding to the Transmission
Sector are ipse jure transferred to IPTO SA.
48
3. For the application of the provisions of L.2166/1993, there
is no obligation to keep distinct accounts in the books
of DESMIE SA with regard to the transactions and other acts which shall take place after the compilation of
the accounts and will be related to the transferred sector
and, due to their nature, it is not possible to distinguish
them from the other sectors of DESMIE SA. These acts
shall be made distinct during the transitional period and
shall be transferred upon the conclusion of the conversion works with a unitary entry in the books of the societe anonyme absorbing the sector, according to the article 2, paragraph 6, L.2166/1993.
4. The share capital of IPTO SA increases due to the absorption of the above mentioned transferred sector of
DESMIE SA at the amount of its book value. Upon the
completion of the absorption of the sector, new shares
are issued by IPTO SA which are granted to DESMIE SA.
These shares allow DESMIE SA to participate in the profits of the absorbing company.
5. Within a three-month deadline from the realization of
the above spin-off, DESMIE SA transfers to PPC all of
its shares in IPTO SA because of the spin-off and transfer, for a consideration equal to the nominal vaue of said
shares.
On 23 November 2011, the company’s board of directors decided that the company shall absorb the Transmission sector of DESMIE SA, pursuant to article 99, L.4001/2011. The
share capital of IPTO SA, as a result of the spin-off, was
increased by the amount of €2,078, and on 30 November
2012, 5.4% of the shares belonging to the company Operator of Electricity Market (LAGIE) was bought by PPC. The

The company’s nominal tax rate is 20%. The income tax statement is submitted on an annual basis, but the profits or losses declared are provisional until the tax authorities audit the statements and the books and records of the taxed party and
the final audit report is issued. Tax losses, to the extent accepted by the tax authorities, can be used to offset future profits of the five fiscal years following the fiscal year to which they relate. The company has not acknowledged tax losses for
offset from previous years. The company has not been audited by the tax authorities for fiscal years 2007 up to 2010. A tax
conformity audit, as stipulated in article 82, paragraph 5, Law 2238/1994 and the decision No ΠΟΛ 1159/22.7.2011 of the Ministry of Finance. No significant tax liabilities arose from this audit apart from the ones entered and shown in the financial
statements. For fiscal year 2012, the tax audit is already carried out by the Company’s legal auditors. The Company’s management does not expect significant tax liabilities from this tax audit apart from the ones entered and shown in the financial statements.

13. Tangible Assets [CONTINUED]
Ownership Status of Property: The company is in the process of detailed recording of its real estate and creating a real estate registry in order to register all of its real estate in the competent land registries in order to take ownership titles and
encumbrance certificates. When this procedure is completed, the company shall have strong ownership titles with the
full implementation and operation of the National Cadastre (see Note 30).
Insurance Coverage: The company’s tangible assets are dispersed all over the country and, therefore, the risk of severe
loss is reduced. IPTO SA (as all the companies of the PPC Group) does not have an insurance coverage on its tangible
assets.
Encumbrances on tangible assets: There are no encumbrances on the company’s tangible assets.
Revaluation of tangible fixed assets: On 31 December 2009, PPC proceeded with the revaluation of its operating tangible
fixed assets, as they were on that date and including the fixed assets transferred to the company via the application of
article 98, L.4001/2011 (note 4). The revaluation was carried out by an independent firm of appraisers according to IAS 16.
The contracts in progress were not appraised. The results of the above revaluation were recorded in the books of PPC
on 31 December 2009 (and were therefore transferred in re-adjusted values via the spin-off and transfer of the transmission sector). The previous revaluation was carried out on 31 December 2004.
The method and significant admissions applied by the independent firm of appraisals were the following:
(a) T he company is considered to be the full owner of the total appraised real estate while property, for which the company disclosed to the independent firm of appraisals or it was found out during the appraisals’ inspections that there
are encumbrances, was not a scope of appraisal.
56
(b) The appraisals presumed that for the total real estate, the company has ownership titles, licenses for building facilities and other similar approvals, as required by the Greek legislation.
(c) The majority of real estate appraised was taken as used by the company itself and that the same use is expected
during the rest of their useful life.
(d) For the determination of the Fair Value of the land, buildings and the other equipment, the Market Approach by professional appraisals was applied (documentation based on the market’s conditions). In special-use buildings, machines and technical projects, the determination of the fair value was based on the Cost Approach, and, in particular,
the undepreciated replacement cost, in the framework of which the necessary revaluation was carried out so as to
reflect their physical, operational and economic depreciation.
(e) The economic depreciation was determined by the appraisal applying the method of proceeds with the help of the
analysis of cash flow discounting. The economic depreciation was respectively distributed to the tangible fixed assets appraised based on the Cost approach, as stipulated in the International Appraisal Standards.
(f) Possible additional charges for gas emissions which may arise after the 2008-2012 period were considered that they
will be fully rolled over and recovered via regulated tariffs.
The total revaluation surplus arising from all appraisals carried out by PPC in the past related to the tangible assets assumed by the company in the framework of the transmission sector spin-off and transfer from PPC to IPTO SA comes up
at €737,300 (net from deferred taxes amounting to €184,325) and was acknowledged in the rest total income of the company. Furthermore, in the spin-off transitional period (period between 1 January 2011 to 30 November 2011), more fixed assets were assumed whose revaluation surplus comes up at €5,411 (net from deferred taxes amounting to €1,352) which
was also acknowledged in the remaining total income of the company.
Regulated Annual Transmission Consideration for 2011 and 2012
On 31 December 2010, the Annual Cost budget and the Unit Use Charge of the Transmission System were approved with
corresponding Ministerial Decisions. RAE, with its relevant opinions to the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Climate
Change, deemed advisable not to include in the unit charge for 2012 the surplus arising from the revaluation of the operating fixed assets of the Transmission activity, carried out by an independent appraisals’ company on 31 December
2009 based on the International Appraisal Standards and IFRS. The rationale of the opinion mentions that the above was
deemed advisable for reasons of consumer’s protection from significant and non-linear changes in the charges related to
electricity supply activities. The surplus recognized on 31 December 2009 came up at 340.5 million Euros. The above position is different from the to date practice of RAE, which for the calculation of the Annual Transmission Consideration of the
Transmission System took into account the results of the revaluation of the fixed assets both for 2000 as well as for 2004.
Following the above, the Company proceeded with a recoverability audit, according to IAS 36, of the undepreciated value of
the fixed assets of the Transmission activity on 31 December 2012, due to the decrease in the proceeds as a result of not
including the revaluation surplus in the unit charge.
The recoverable amount of the fixed assets of the Transmission activity (then a cash generating unit of PPC) was determined based on the Value in Use method. The Value in Use was calculated using estimations of future cash flows of the
transmission activity which were projected for a period of five years in the beginning and then perpetually. For the determination the following were used:
» Budgetary operating profit margins and EBITDA based on the historical data of the last years adjusted to also take into account the expected profitability changes
» Time preference rates based on the data of the transmission activity in order to determine the value of its future cash
flows
The key admissions used are consistent with independent outside sources of information. The results of the impairment
test on 31 December 2012 showed that the impairment loss for the fixed assets of the transmission activity amounted to
118,750 Euros, offsetting the surplus from previous revaluations while the net value of 95,000 Euros directly burdened the
other total income of the Company decreasing the revaluation reserve of fixed assets created in previous fiscal years.
In the framework of its competences regarding the approval of the Annual Cost of the Transmission activities and the
framework of re-examining the calculation methodology of the Annual Rent for the Networks, in 2011, RAE though it was
necessary to further analyze the parameters comprising the Annual Cost of the Transmission System. For this reason,
it proceeded with a further assessment study of the above appraisal of the value of PPC tangible fixed assets by an independent fir of appraisals based on the International Appraisal Standards and the IFRS, with 31 December 2009 as the reporting date. Furthermore, it deemed necessary to proceed with a further stud yof the calculation of fair return, as a parameter of calculating the allowable revenue of regulated networks. RAE with its decision, No 1016/20.12.2011, deemed
advisable to retain the system use charges at the level of charges approved with the relevant ministerial decisions for 2011
(GG B 2094/31.12.2010 & GG Β 45/24.01.2011).

Provision by the spin-off and transfer of transmission sector from DESMIE
The receivables from customers in delay with value impairment mainly include receivables from the customers: Energa
Power Trading SA., Kentor, Electricity Retail Sale SA, Hellas Power SA and Vivid Power, amounting to about 58 million Euros. These receivables derived from the spin-off and transfer of the operation sector of the transmission system from DESMIE (now LAGIE). In this fiscal year, the company’s management proceeded with legal actions for the above debts and
after assessing the possibilities of having a positive outcome for these cases, entered a provision for impairment of abut
42 million Euros.
The increase of receivables from energy customers is mainly due to the assumption of the settlement activity of energy services from the transmission sector as of 1 February 2012 which are not shown on 31 December 2011 in the books
of IPTO.

On 31 December 2009 and 2010, the company’s share capital amounted to €4,441 comprising 4,440,928 registered shares
of nominal value €1.00 each and as fully paid.
With the decision of the extraordinary general assembly of the company’s shareholders on 7 November 2011, the share

registered shares of nominal value of €1.00 each.
Following the above, on 31 December 2011, the company’s share capital came up to €36,366 comprising 36,365,599 registered shares of nominal value of €1.00 each and was fully paid.
With the decision of the extraordinary general assembly of the company’s shareholders on 13 January 2012, the share
capital in-creased by €2,078, deriving from the capitalization of the book value of the transferred (to the company) sector of
the Transmission System Operation of DESMIE SA on 31 August 2011 with the issuance of 2,078,594 registered shares of

€38,444 comprising 38,444,193 registered shares of nominal value of €1.00 each.
21. Legal Reserve
Under Greek corporate legislation, companies are required to transfer a 5% of their annual net profit to a legal reserve until
such reserve equals one third of the paid-in share capital. This reserve cannot be distributed through the life of the company. In 2012, the company had a legal reserve of €1,275 (2011: 5,878) and the total of legal reserve, therefore, came up to
€11,205 (2011: €9,930) on 31 December 2012.
62
22. Dividends
Under Greek corporate law, companies are required each year to distribute dividends of at least 35% of after-tax profit, after allowing for the legal reserve. However, with the consent of at least 70% of the Company’s shareholders, a company
may not distribute dividends.
Furthermore, the Greek corporate law requires certain conditions to be met before dividends can be distributed. Specifically, no dividends can be distributed (a) as long as a company’s equity, as reflected in the balance sheet after such distribution will be less than the equity plus non-distributable reserves; and (b) as long as the unamortized balance of pre-operating expenses is higher than the aggregate of distributable reserves plus retained earnings.
The Company’s Board of Directors approved the financial statements of the fiscal year of 2011, on 28 March 2012, and proposed to the Supervisory Board and the Shareholders’ General Meeting the non-distribution of dividends given the uncertainty arising from the non-integration yet of the financial figures contributed by LAGIE SA along with the general uncertainty of the financial environment.
The Supervisory Board decided on 9 May 2012 the distribution of the by law minimum dividend for the fiscal year of 2011.
Therefore, the Board of Directors revised the annual financial statements and included the above decision of the Supervisory Board for distribution of by law minimum dividend, namely the amount of €39,089. The revised annual financial statements were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on 24 May 2012 and by the Shareholders’ General Meeting on
25 June 2012. The dividend was paid during the fiscal year.

24. Post Retirement Benefits
64
Employees and pensioners in all companies of the PPC Group are entitled to supply of energy at reduced tariffs. Such reduced tariffs to pensioners are considered to be retirement obligations and are calculated at the present value of the future retirement benefits deemed to have accrued at end-year based on the employees’ earning retirement benefit rights
steadily through out the working period. The relevant retirement obligations are calculated on the basis of financial and actuarial admissions. Net costs for the period are included in the payroll cost in the statements of income and concern the
present value of the benefits earned in the year reduced by the amount of the benefits offered to the pensioners. The retirement benefit obligations are not funded.
Non recognized profits or losses exceeding 10% of the projected benefit obligation at the beginning of each period are recognized based on the remaining time of work of the employees and is included as a component of the net cost of the benefits. The retirement benefit obligation is not funded.
The results of the actuarial study for the year ended 31 December 2012 are as follows:

29. Contracting Cost
The company proceeded in the fiscal year with the recognition of the total income based on IFRS 11 for the construction of
projects of third parties with a total value of €39,053 (see Note 5). The total contracting cost at the end of the fiscal year, 31
December 2012, amounts to €37,113. In 2011, the company had not concluded the necessary contracts for the recognition
of the necessary income and cost based on IFRS 11.
30. Commitments and Contingencies
Ownership of property
Major matters related to the ownership of property of IPTO SA are the following:
1. The Public Power Corporation SA is the legal successor of all assets of the previous legal entity of PPC and, respectively,
IPTO SA is the legal successor in interest of all assets of PPC transmission activity after assuming it via the spin-off and
transfer carried out based on article 98, L.4001/2011. Its assets, in their bigger part, are free of encumbrances. Although
all assets have been legally acquired, the titles on land, plots and buildings are not legally valid and may not be in force
towards third parties until the property is registered in the relevant land registry in the name of PPC and, respectively, of
IPTO SA. PPC and IPTO SA are in the process of conveyance of their property without charge in the relevant land registry, applying a simplified conveyance process. This process has not been completed yet.
2. In a number of cases, expropriated land, as presented in the expropriation statements, differs (in quantitative terms)
with what PPC considers as its property.
68
Environmental obligations
Key parameters that may influence the final level of environmental investment which will be required to be made in the
next decade include the following:
1. The environmental permits related to the national Transmission network, for which the Environmental Impact Study
has been submitted to the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Climate Change, are expected to be issued.
2. During the operation of the Transmission Lines, Substations and High Voltage Centers, there is no electromagnetic radiation but two seperate fields, the electric and the magnetic one. At places where the public or the Company’s personnel might find themselves close to the above lines and substations, the values of those fields are substantially less than
the limits. Those limits were established by the International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO). The above limits have also been transposed in a European Union directive and the Greek legislation. It must be noted, though, that the limits stated in the above regulations for
electric and magnetic fields do not constitute dangerous values but include large safety factors in order to cover some
vagueness due to the limited knowledge about both fields and fulfill the requirement for the prevention of any adverse
impacts.
Construction of underwater line “Polypotamos – Nea Makri”*1
By this project, the transfer of wind power of a total capacity of approximately 400MW from South Evia to Attica, while at
the same time the power supply of East Attica is strengthened. The project is being constructed using submarine cables of150kV, 200 MVA, environmental friendly, buried at approximately one meter under the sea floor. The contract with
the contractor was signed on 14 May 2010 with a construction deadline at the end of June 2013. The project has a budget
amounting to about €74 million and the laying works of the cable started in March 2013.
Cyclades interconnection*2
By this project, the possibility of interconnection of the islands of Syros, Paros, Naxos and Mykonos to the mainland high
voltage interconnected system is given. The islands will be supplied from two points, Lavrio and South Evia through Andros, in order to ensure a reliable and sufficient supply. The project’s declaration was put in public consultation in March
2010 and the project declaration was published in June 2011 with a submission deadline of bids up to mid-October 2011,
which was further extended for January 2012. The tender was declared unsuccessful. The project has been redesigned
with implementation in two phases and an initial budget of about €250 million. The project is expected to be put in public
consultation by the end of March 2013.
Construction of High Voltage Center of Aliveri and interconnection transmission line of 400 kV
The project is related to the interconnection of the new unit of the High Voltage Center of Aliveri and its budget amounts to
€120 million. The construction works were completed in mid-June 2012, while as far as the interconnection transmission
line of 400 kV double circuit of Aliveri with the System is concerned, the overhead parts have been completed and one of
the two subterranean cables. The second subterranean cable will be completed by May 2013.
*1. The laying works of the cable have been completed and the project will be ready for electricity supply before the end of 2013.
*2. The public consultation has been concluded and the project is expected to be promptly declared.
31. Financial Risk Management Policies
The financial risk management is focused on the unpredictability of the financial and non-financial markets and seeks to
minimize adverse effects in the company’s financial position. The company identifies, evaluates and if necessary hedges risk related to its operating activities, while it auctions and revises the relevant policies and procedures in connection
with financial risk management on a periodical basis. Also no transactions of a speculative nature are undertaken by the
company.
Credit Risk
For the trade receivables, the company is exposed to credit risk. In this fiscal year, the Company has assumed the operation of the Transmission System from LAGIE, and the credit risk has significantly been mitigated given that for such activities the company operates as intermediary (collection from participants in order to make payments to participants). The
company, therefore, in order to decrease the credit risk it applies policies of paying debts after collecting the respective receivables. Finally, the company applies in whole the provisions of energy legislation for guarantees by the participants.
Fair Value
The amounts shown in the attached balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, short-term receivables and liabilities
approach the respecting fair values due to their short-term expiry. The book values of the long-term borrowing approach
their fair value as these loans are in local currency and interest-bearing with floating rates.
Liquidity risk
The liquidity risk is connected with the need to ensure adequate cash flow for the company’s operation and development.
The company manages the liquidity risk by monitoring and programming its cash flows and properly acting so as to ensure sufficient credit lines, and cash deposits while aiming at the extension of the average maturity of its debt and the diversification of its funding sources.

Interest rate risk
The company’s principal loan liabilities comprise long-term bank loans. The company does not currently have a hedging
policy of interest rate risks. The main risk arising from managing the loan liabilities is focused on financial results and cash
flows, as a consequence of the fluctuation of interest rates.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity analysis to
a reasonably possible change in interest rates with all other
variables held constant of the profits before taxes through
the impact on the floating rate borrowings:
