Capital Management The Parent Company’s capital is composed of its equity, which amounts to P=1.20 billion and P=1.16 billion as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Parent Company’s capital management activities seek to ensure that it maintains a healthy capital ratio in order to support its businesses and maximize shareholder value by optimizing the level and mix of its capital resources. Decisions on the allocation of capital resources are being performed as part of the strategic planning review. The Parent Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Parent Company may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. The Parent Company’s objective is to ensure that there are no known events that may trigger direct or contingent financial obligation that is material to the Company, including default or acceleration of an obligation. The Parent Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. 16. Retirement Plan The Parent Company has a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan covering substantially all of its regular employees. Under this retirement plan, all qualified employees are entitled to cash benefits after satisfying age and service requirements. Provisions for pension obligations are established for benefits payable in the form of retirement pensions. Benefits are dependent on years of service and the respective employee’s latest monthly salary. The Parent Company determined its transitional liability for defined benefit retirement plan merely as the present value of the obligation since the Parent Company had no plan assets at the date of the adoption. Transitional liability is amortized prospectively over five (5) years starting on January 1, 2005. The latest actuarial valuation report on the retirement plan is dated December 31, 2011. *SGVMC116501*
