The charge for the year is reflected under "Outside Services" and the excessive provisions are
recognised under "Excessive Provisions” in the accompanying income statement.
At 31 December 2013 and 2012, certain civil, labour, criminal and administrative lawsuits had
been filed against the Company which were taken into account in estimating potential contingent
liabilities. Noteworthy, in view of their amount, were the lawsuits with certain collection societies.
As mentioned in Note 1, on 18 December 2013 the Supreme Court issued a writ of execution
enforcing the aforementioned judgment, rendering void the resolution of the Spanish Cabinet
regarding the allocation of channels. The Company does not consider it necessary to recognise a
provision in this connection.
In 2012 the tax authorities issued assessments relating to the levy on games of luck, betting or
chance, raffles and tombolas against the absorbed company Gestora de Inversiones Audiovisuales
La Sexta, S.A. for an amount of EUR 6,903 thousand. In this respect, the merger agreements
established that La Sexta shareholders must indemnify Atresmedia Corporación de Medios de
Comunicación, S.A. for any economic loss that could arise from these assessments.
The directors of the Company and its legal advisers do not expect anymaterial liabilities additional
to those already recognised to arise from the outcome of the lawsuits in progress.
