Fair value reserve
The fair value reserve includes the cumulative net change in the fair value of financial assets until these have
been divested or impaired.
Own shares
Occasionally, the Group buys its own shares on the market. The timing of these purchases depends on the share
price.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company held 94,318 of its own shares. These are measured at the average quoted
price of €9.61 and are recognized as a deduction from equity for a total of €907 thousand (a reduction of €101
thousand compared with March 31, 2009, essentially due to the drop in the share price).
Dividends
At March 31, 2010, no dividend had been paid in respect of 2008/2009 earnings.

Ahead of the Ubisoft Divertissements Inc. (Canada) tax audit for 1999 to 2003, and 2004 to 2008, a bilateral
transfer price agreement has been initiated with the tax authorities. Waiting for the final agreement, the provision
of CAD 3 million remains unchanged.
Contingent liabilities
A tax audit is underway at Ubisoft PTY Ltd (Australia) for the period from April 1, 2004 to March 31, 2007. No
proposed adjustments have been received to date. Consequently, no provisions have been made in the accounts.
