The deferred tax liability relates to the goodwill associated with the spot market activities of APX B.V., which has already been written off for tax purposes, as well as the intangible assets which were commercially valued upon acquisition of Endex European Energy Derivatives Exchange N.V. (customer base, arrangements with participants). Realisation will take place principally during the remaining useful lives of the intangible assets in question (approximately ten years).
