Explanatory notes for the Balance Sheet at 30 April 2009

1.      COMPANY ACTIVITIES

Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A., hereinafter Cintra or the Company is the parent company of Cintra Group. It was incorporated on 3 February 1998 as a public limited liability company and its registered office is at Plaza Manuel Gómez Moreno, 2, planta 14, Edificio Alfredo Mahou, 28020 Madrid. It is registered with the Madrid Mercantile Registry and it holds tax identification number A-81939209.

Cintra pertains to a group lead by Grupo Ferrovial, S.A, which indirectly controls 66.88%.

According to the Company’s by-laws its corporate purpose consists mainly of the following activities: design, construction, execution, operation, management, administration and maintenance of all types of public and private infrastructures and projects. It includes the execution and rendering of all types of services relating to urban and intercity transportation infrastructure.

The above activities may be fully or partially carried out by Cintra through shareholdings in other Spanish or foreign companies, groups or consortiums with a similar corporate purpose.



2.       MERGER AND SEGREGATION PROJECT

The balance sheet closed on 30 April 2009 has been prepared to serve as the merger and segregation balance sheets for Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A. in accordance with the merger projects that will be approved by the Boards of Directors of Grupo Ferrovial S.A., Ferrovial Infraestructuras S.A., Aeropuerto de Belfast S.A., Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte S.A. and the joint administrators of Marjeshvan S.L. and Lernamara S.L. and the segregation Project that will be approved by the Boards of Directors of Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A. and Cintra Infraestructuras, S.A.

Structure

The merger between Cintra and Grupo Ferrovial S.A. is structured through a series of complex corporate transactions that are briefly described below:

1. Simplified merger:

As a prior inseparable step within the merger of Cintra and Grupo Ferrovial S.A., the latter will take-over Ferrovial Infraestructuras, S.A., Aeropuerto de Belfast, S.A., Marjeshvan, S.L. and Lernamara, S.L., resulting in the extinguishment, through dissolution without liquidation of the target companies and the transfer of all their assets and liabilities to the acquiring company, resulting in its universal succession to all of their rights and obligations.

4 - 48

 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
2. Segregation of Cintra:

Also as part of this complex integration transaction, Cintra will “affiliate” its business equity –basically consisting of the shares its holds in concessionaire companies through which it carries out the transportation infrastructure business- through its segregation and transfer in full to a wholly owned vehicle, Cintra Infraestructuras, S.A., which will be structured through a total, special segregation transaction which will consist, for tax purposes, of the contribution of a line of business.

It should be noted that Cintra recently transferred ownership of the shares in the company Cintra Aparcamientos, S.A. to a third party and therefore these shares do not form part of the segregated equity.

3.  Merger between Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte S.A. and Grupo Ferrovial, S.A.

Finally, Grupo Ferrovial S.A. will be merged into Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte S.A., extinguishing the former through liquidation and the transfer of all its assets and liabilities to the acquiring company, which will universally succeed to all the target company’s assets and liabilities (“inverse” merger). As a result of this transaction the shareholders of Grupo Ferrovial S.A. will receive shares in Cintra in exchange without any supplementary cash compensation. Cintra will increase share capital by the amount necessary to cover the swap of shares in Grupo Ferrovial S.A., which may be reduced through the delivery of Cintra treasury shares.

Accounting effects of the transactions

Both in the “simplified merger” and in the merger between Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte S.A. and Grupo Ferrovial, S.A., as from 1 January 2009 the transactions carried out by the target companies will be considered to have been carried out by the acquiring companies, subject to compliance with certain suspensive conditions (1). The segregation operation and the transfer of Cintra’s equity to Cintra Infraestructuras, S.A. is considered to take effect retroactively as from 30 June 2009.


(1) Suspensive conditions:

-  
Execution of the relevant merger and segregation deeds.
-  
Serving of notifications, obtainment of the necessary administrative authorisations and completion of registration formalities.
-  
Cancellation of the pledge on Cintra’s shares currently held by Ferrovial.

 
The merger and segregation projects will be submitted for the approval of shareholders at general meetings held by the companies involved, as appropriate for each one.

3.      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

3.1. True and fair view

The Balance Sheet has been prepared to meet the requirements of the merger and segregation project described in Note 2 of this Document.

The Balance Sheet at 30 April 2009 has been obtained from the Company's accounting records and is presented in accordance with the Spanish General Accounting Plan approved by Royal Decree 1514/2007 and the accounting standards established in commercial legislation such that it reflects a true and fair view of the Company's financial situation and its results.

The Company has majority stakes in the capital of certain subsidiaries and has shareholdings that are equal to or exceed 20% of the share capital in others. The Balance Sheet at 30 April 2009 does not reflect any increases or decreases in equity that would result from the application of consolidation policies using the full consolidation method with respect to majority stakes or the equity method for other significant shareholdings.

The consolidated annual accounts for Cintra Group prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards present consolidated equity attributable to the parent company at 30 April 2009 totaling €533,847k, and profits attributable to the parent company totaling €8,415k, assets totaling €12,038,425k and other liabilities totaling €11,504,578k.

The information contained in the Balance Sheet at 30 April and the explanatory notes is presented in thousands of euros.

3.2. Accounting principles

The balance sheet at 30 April 2009 has been prepared in accordance with the accounting standards stipulated by current commercial legislation.

3.3. Key aspects of the measurement and estimation of uncertainty

The preparation of the Balance sheet requires the Company to apply certain forward-looking estimates and judgments that are evaluated on a continuous basis and are based on past experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are deemed to be reasonable under current circumstances.

The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and judgments that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. The Company uses judgments to select a variety of methods and to develop assumptions that are primarily based on the market conditions existing at each balance sheet date.

Transactions carried out by the Company involving financial derivatives are generally considered to be hedges.

The Company has continued with its strategy of avoiding speculative positions and to limiting exchange rate and interest rate risks.

The policy for hedging exchange rate risks is intended to ensure that foreseeable cash flows are not affected by changes in exchange rates. Accordingly, hedges are used for the following transactions:
 
6 - 48

 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
·  
Multi-currency projects involving planned or pending transactions. These are understood to be those in which payments made or received are not denominated in the same currency. The purpose of the hedges for these transactions is to ensure that the profit on the transaction (difference between payments made and received) is not affected by exchange rate fluctuations.

·  
Profits obtained by foreign subsidiaries and dividends or refunds of capital that are expected to be received from those subsidiaries. The objective in this case is to obtain hedges for cash flows that are expected to take place in the short or medium term.

3.4. Grouping of items

For clarity, the balance sheet is presented in a summarized form. When appropriate, an analysis is provided in the relevant notes to the balance sheet.

4.      MEASUREMENT POLICIES

The main measurement policies used by the Company when preparing the Balance Sheet are as follows:

4.1. Intangible assets

“Intangible assets” on the accompanying balance sheet at 30 April 2009 are initially recognized at their acquisition price or production cost, including capitalizable financial expenses, and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment losses. Intangible assets with a definite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful life up to a maximum of 3 years.

The intangible assets recorded by the Company relate to computer applications. Software licenses acquired from third parties are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred in their acquisition and preparation for the use of the specific program.

4.2. Property, plant and equipment

The assets included in this heading of the Balance Sheet at 30 April 2009 are carried at acquisition price or production cost, less any provisions and depreciation charged.

Own work capitalized is measured, for each investment, by adding to the price of the materials used the direct or indirect costs attributable to the investment.

Upkeep and maintenance expenses for property, plant and equipment are recorded under expenses in the period incurred.

Work performed by the Company on its own assets is stated at actual cost.

Costs relating to extensions, modernization or improvements which increase productivity or extend the useful lives of the assets are capitalized as an increase in the cost of the assets concerned.

7 - 48

 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment

The Company depreciates its property, plant and equipment on a straight-line basis distributing the amortizable cost of assets over their estimated useful lives, in accordance with the effective depreciation arising due to wear and tear.
The property, plant and equipment that the Company records consists of furniture and data processing equipment whose useful lives are 10 and 3 years, respectively.

4.3. Non-current assets held for sale

 A company classifies a non--current assets as being held-for-sale if its book value will essentially be recovered through its sale instead of through continued use, provided that the following requirements are met:

a) The asset must be available in its current state for immediate sale, subject to the usual and habitual terms of sale; and

b) Its sale must be highly likely because the following circumstances are in place:

b.1) The company must be committed to a plan to sell the asset and have started a program to find a buyer and fulfill the plan.

b.2) The sale of the asset must be actively negotiated at an adequate price with respect to its present fair value.

b.3) The sale is expected to be completed within one year following the date on which the asset is classified as held-for-sale, unless due to events or circumstances outside of the company's control the sale period must be lengthened and there is sufficient evidence that the company continues to be committed to its plan to dispose of the asset.

b.4) The actions taken to fulfill the plan indicate that it is unlikely that there will be substantial changes in the plan or that it will be withdrawn.

Non-current assets held-for-sale will be stated at the lower of the following two amounts at the time of classification under this category: their book value and their fair value less selling costs. The Company has reclassified the carrying value of the investments in Cintra Chile, Ltd. and subsidiaries, and Cintra Aparcamientos, S.A. subsidiaries as non-current assets held-for-sale.

4.4. Financial assets

4.4.1. Investments held to maturity, loans and receivables:

Investments held to maturity, loans granted and receivables are initially recognized at fair value, less attributable costs, and subsequently at amortized cost, recording the interest accrued based on the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate is the discount rate that brings the initial price of the financial instrument exactly into line with all its estimated cash flows to maturity.

Notwithstanding the above, loans for commercial operations maturing within one year are stated; both at the time of initial recognition as well as subsequently, at their nominal value provided that the effect of not restating flows is not significant.

8 - 48

 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
At least at the end of the period value adjustments are made as necessary for impairment losses if there is objective evidence that not all amounts due will be collected. The amount of the impairment loss is the difference between the book value of the asset and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate in place at the time of initial recognition. Value corrections, as well as their reversal, are recognized in the income statement. The amount of the provision is the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the present value of  estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate.

Financial assets are written off the balance sheet when the risks and rewards of ownership of the assets are substantially transferred. In the specific case of accounts receivable, the understanding is that this takes place in general when the risks of insolvency and default have been transferred.

4.4.2. Investments in the equity of group, multigroup and associated companies

These items are stated at cost less any accumulated amount relating to impairment corrections. However, when there is an investment prior to being classified as a group, multigroup or associated company the carrying value before being so classified is considered to be a part of the investment cost. The prior measurement adjustments that are directly recorded under equity are maintained there until written off.

If there is objective evidence that the carrying value cannot be recovered, the appropriate adjustments will be made in the amount of the difference between the book value and the recoverable amount, which is understood to be the higher of fair value less costs of sale and the present value of future cash flows deriving from the investment calculated either by estimating those expected to be received as a result of the distribution of dividends by the investee company and the disposal or elimination in the accounts of the investment in that company, either by estimating the share in the cash flows that are expected to be generated by the investee company from both ordinary activities as well as its disposal or elimination from the accounts.

Unless better evidence of the recoverable amount from investments is available, the estimate of the impairment of this type of assets will take into consideration the equity of the investee company as adjusted by any tacit capital gains existing at the measurement date. The measurement adjustment and, if appropriate, its reversal, is recorded in the income statement in which this operation takes place.

4.5. Financial derivatives

Derivatives are initially measured at market value on the contract date. Subsequent changes to fair value are also recognized at each balance sheet close. The recognition of resulting gains or losses on derivatives depends on whether the instrument is or is not a designated hedge and, if applicable, on the type of hedge. The various rates are as follows:

9 - 48

 
 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
  
Cash flow hedge:

A cash flow hedge covers exposure to highly probable future transactions and changes in cash flows. The gain or loss on the ineffective portion of the hedging instrument is recognized in the consolidated income statement while the effective portion is recognized directly under equity in the consolidated balance sheet. The amount deferred in equity is not recognized in the income statement until the gain or loss of the hedging transaction is recognized in the income statement or until the transactions mature. The amount in question is recognized in the same results caption as the hedged item.

Finally, should the hedge become ineffective, the amount recognized in equity to date is taken to the income statement on a proportionate basis during the term of the derivative contract.

4.6. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include petty cash, demand deposits at credit institutions and other short-term, highly-liquid investments that initially mature within three months.

4.7. Equity

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are presented under equity as a deduction, net of taxes.

Acquisitions of the parent company’s treasury shares, in the amount paid, including attributable related costs, are deducted in equity. When treasury shares are sold or reissued, any amount received is taken to equity, net of costs.

4.8. Provisions and contingent liabilities

The Group recognises a provision for a commitment or obligation vis-à-vis a third party that meets the following requirements: It is a present obligation (legal or implicit) arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow of funds and the amount or timing of which are not known for certain but can be reliably estimated.

Provisions are stated at the present value of the payments that are expected to be necessary to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects an evaluation of the current market, the current value of money and the specific risks of the obligation. Adjustments to the provision deriving from restatements are recognized as a financial expense as they accrue.
Provisions maturing in one year or less with no significant financial effect are not discounted.

Contingent liabilities are considered to be potential liabilities deriving from past events, the existence of which are subject to the occurrence of one or more future events that lie outside the control of the Company. These contingent liabilities are not recorded in the accounts but are described in the notes presenting the financial statements Note 4.16).

10 - 48

 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
4.9. Provisions for pensions and similar obligations

The Company does not have any pension plans or similar obligations.

In accordance with current employment legislation, the Company is required to pay indemnities to employees who, under certain conditions, are dismissed from the Company. The Company considers a significant payment of this type will not take place in the future.

4.10. Financial liabilities

4.10.1. Borrowings and payables

These liabilities are initially carried at fair value net of transaction costs and subsequently remeasured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the discount rate that brings the expected flow of future payments to the liability’s maturity exactly into line with the initial amount received. In the event that the effective interest rate is initially considered to be different from the market interest rate, the liability is measured based on the present value of future flows at the market rate, in the case of interest-bearing loans. Where no effective interest rate is specified, the flows are also measured at the market interest rate.

In the event of the renegotiation of existing debts, the financial liability is not deemed to change significantly when the lender of the new loan is the same as the initial lender and the present value of cash flows, including origination and arrangement costs, applying the effective interest method, is not more than 10% higher or lower than the present value of future cash flows pending payment on the original liability calculated using the same method.


4.10.2. Financial liabilities at fair value through changes in profit or loss:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are considered to be all those liabilities held for trading that are issued with the intention of being required in the short-term or which form part of an identified securities portfolio that is jointly managed to obtain short-term profits, as well as financial liabilities designated by the Company at initial recognition to be included under this category as it provides more relevant information. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading provided that they do not consist of a financial guarantee and have not been designated as hedging instruments.

These financial liabilities are measured, both initially and subsequently, at fair value and any changes affecting this value are taken to the income statement for the year. Costs that are directly attributable to the issue are recognized in the income statement for the year.


4.11. Income tax and deferred taxes

Corporate income tax income or expense is the amount accruing in this respect during the year and includes both current tax income or expense and deferred taxes.

Both current and deferred tax income and expense is recorded in the income statement. However, equity records the tax effect relating to items that are recorded directly under equity.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are stated at the amounts that are expected to be paid to or recovered from tax authorities, in accordance with current or approved legislation at the date these accounts were approved.

11 - 48

  
 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
Deferred income tax is calculated, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts. However, if the deferred taxes arise from the initial recognition of an asset or liability on a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction has no effect on book profits or the tax base the tax gain or loss is not accounted for. The deferred tax is determined by applying legislation and the tax rates approved or about to be approved at the balance sheet date and which are expected to be applied when the corresponding deferred tax asset is realized or the deferred tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be offset.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and combined businesses except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences is controlled by the Company and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

4.12.  Conversion of transactions denominated in foreign currency

The conversion of the transactions carried out by the company in a currency other than its functional currency (euro) takes place through the application of the exchange rate in force at the time each transaction takes place or the year-end exchange rate in the event of active balances at the date this Balance Sheet was prepared.

Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and translation at the year- end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency, are recognized in the income statement, unless they are deferred in equity as qualified cash flow hedges and qualified net investment hedges.

4.13. Stock option plans

The Company operates a share-based payment plan. The Company recognizes employee services received in exchange for the granting of an option as an expense at the time the right is obtained, and through the relevant increase in equity. The total amount that will be expensed during the accrual period is based on the fair value of the options granted.

Stock option plans are measured at fair value when the options are initially granted, based on an improved binomial model that accounts for the strike price, volatility, exercise period, expected dividends, risk-free interest rate and the assumptions made to incorporate the effects of expected early exercise. The initial value is not subsequently reassessed. This value is recognized in staff expenses in proportion to the stipulated period of time during which the employed must remain at the company, with a balancing entry in liabilities.

12 - 48

 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
4.14. Accounting estimates and judgments

In the Balance Sheet at 30 April 2009, estimates made by the Directors have been used to measure certain assets, liabilities, income, expenses and commitments. The following estimates have been used:

-  
Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
-  
Measurement of stock options
-  
Assessment of possible legal and tax contingencies

4.15. Related-party transactions.

In general, transactions between group companies are recorded initially at their fair value. If appropriate, when the agreed price differs from the fair value the difference is recorded in accordance with the financial reality of the transaction. The subsequent valuation is applied in accordance with the provisions of the relevant rules.

4.16. Financial risk management.

a)      Financial risk factors

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on uncertainty in financial markets and seeks to minimize the potential adverse impact on its financial profitability. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures.

Risk management is controlled by the Company’s Treasury Department which identifies, evaluates and hedges against financial risks in accordance with established policies.
 
Among the financial risks to which the company is exposed, are those deriving from the guarantees and pledges that are necessary to carry out its activity.

At 30 April 2009 the Company records bank guarantees provided to third parties and guarantees for other Group companies in order to carry out their activities.

The expenses incurred up to April 2009 for the guarantees described above totaled €256k and the average interest rate applied to the financial guarantees (for concessions) totaled 0.05% per quarter and for technical guarantees (for bids) totaled 0.03% per quarter.

The guarantees presented for bids, totaling €75,814k, are mandatory in these processes as they guarantee the presentation of the bid by the Company. Guarantees are also presented for the payment of rights and to supplement obligations, as is established in the various concession agreements involving investee companies, totaling €187,174k. These guarantees are in place to guarantee subsequent construction and operation by the concessionaire companies.

The Company believes that unforeseen liabilities at 30 April 2009 that could derive from any guarantees that have been presented would not be significant.

As the parent company, Cintra has pledged shares in some of its investee companies. In general, the concession company debts include a package of guarantees for lenders comprising asset pledges (receivables under insurance policies, current accounts, receivables under the concession contract, etc.) and, in some cases, the pledge of shares in the concessionaire company is included as a guarantee.

Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 

The following is noted with respect to the status of expropriations at 30 April 2009 involving some Cintra Group companies:

In 2008 these companies recognized an increase in the value of expropriations. The amount of the expropriations is estimated based on the rulings from the relevant Expropriation Jury, by directly applying the amount stated in the ruling, if applicable. Where no amount is stated, the amount stated in similar cases is used and adjustments are made, if appropriate, to account for specific circumstances. Estimated accrued interest is also taken into consideration.

During 2008, the Supreme Court sent notice of rulings relating to the valuation of land in toll road expropriations in the Madrid region.

In general, with respect to the land expropriated to build the radial toll roads, the rulings state that the land must be valued based on its classification and, therefore, that non-building land must be valued as such rather than under the general system. However, the rulings significantly raise the value of non-building land initially envisaged. Moreover, as regards the land expropriated to execute the M-45 ring road in Madrid, the Supreme Court has stated that the land expropriated forms part of a general system and must therefore be valued as building land, irrespective of the specific classification of that land. The value of the non-building land, in particular, is therefore considerably higher than initially envisaged. It is reasonable to assume that this approach is also applicable to the land required for the Madrid M-50 ring road, in accordance with the stance already adopted by the Madrid High Court.

In any event, the Company considers that the concession companies in Madrid will reasonably be entitled to receive indemnities to restore the financial balance of the concession.

On 2 June 2009 Autopista Alcalá O’Donnell, presented to the Madrid Regional Transportation and Infrastructure Office within application to terminate the concession agreement, based on the modification of the construction budget exceeding 20% of the original budget as a result of modifications made to the project by the granting authority. The case file is currently suspended while the Company negotiates alternatives to continue executing the agreement. In any event, the termination of the agreement due to the reason behind the application will not cause any harm to the concessionaire company which, due to express legislation, will maintain the right to recover all investments made plus associated costs incurred.

In addition, other companies pertaining to Cintra group are defendants in several lawsuits and the effect of that legal action on the accompanying financial statements should not be significant.

Market risk: Foreign exchange  risk

The Company operates internationally and is therefore exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from currency transactions, primarily with respect to the US dollar, Canadian dollar, Chilean peso and Polish zloty. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations.

Management has established a risk management policy governing exchange rates applicable to its functional currency. To manage exchange rate risk deriving from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities, term contracts are used as negotiated by the Treasury Department. Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency.

The Company has several investments in foreign operations, whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency risks. The exchange risk on the net assets of the Group’s foreign operations is mainly managed through
 
17 - 48

 
Cintra, Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transporte, S.A.
 
 
borrowings denominated in the relevant foreign currency.

During the period several euro-Canadian dollar exchange rate hedges have been obtained to cover dividends from the 407 motorway ETR Concession Company. At 30 April 2009 there are no hedged amounts.

Market risk: Credit risk

Credit risk is managed by groups. Credit risk derives from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as wholesale and retail customers, including outstanding receivables and transaction commitments. Only banks and financial institutions with a minimum independent rating of “A” are accepted.

Market risk: Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. Given the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Company's Treasury Department has the objective of maintaining flexible financing through available credit facilities.

Management monitors liquidity reserve projections for the Company (which includes credit availability (Note 12 and 14) and cash and cash equivalents (Note 10) based on expected cash flows.

b)  
 Fair value estimation

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. The Company uses a variety of methods and develops assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance sheet date. For long-term debt market prices or agent quotation prices are used. Other techniques, such as estimated discounted cash flows, are used to determine fair value for other financial instruments. The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using listed forward exchange market rates at the balance sheet date.

The carrying value of trade receivables and payables is assumed to approximate their fair value. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Company for similar financial instruments.

4.17. Environmental policy

Given the activity in which the Company is involved, they have no environmental liabilities, expenses, assets, provisions or contingencies that could be significant with respect to its equity, financial situation and results. For this reason no specific breakdowns are provided in these Notes regarding environmental information.

The Company maintains the same policy applied in prior years of not capitalizing deductions that have not been applied to date, mainly because most of the deductions relate to the years 1998-2001, i.e. generated before the creation of the Tax Consolidated Group and therefore an essential requirement is that Cintra must generate sufficient taxable income on an individual level and due to its activity it normally does not generate such taxes payable so that it may applied the deductions. Therefore, the deductions will be applied when there are significant non-recurring profits.

The years 1998, 1999 and 2002 have become statute barred without having been inspected. In 2005 the tax inspection action that started in May 2003 and covering 2000 and 2001 was completed, and the Company accepted assessments in an insignificant amount.

In January 2008 and inspection of corporate income tax for 2003, 2004 and 2005 and all other taxes for 2004 and 2005 commenced. In December 2008 the Inspectorate requested an extension of the scope of inspection and therefore at this time the collection and analysis of data by the Inspectorate has been completed and the final report from the Inspectorate is pending. As a result of actions that may be undertaken by the tax authorities in connection with the years open to inspection, contingent tax liabilities could arise that the company believes will not be higher than those taken into consideration.

At the Balance Sheet date the corporate income tax return for 2008 has not been filed.
