On November 14, 2013, it was announced that Ahold had reached an agreement with Condorum regarding the sale of Ahold's Slovakian business. In relation hereto Ahold has agreed to
pay an amount of €44 million. Upon the sale agreement, Ahold Slovakia qualified as held for sale and discontinued operation. The transaction is expected to close in the first half 2014, and is
subject to customary conditions.
The 2013 operating results of Ahold Slovakia as included in the operating results from discontinued operations were a loss of €3 million. The 2012 operating loss of €26 million that was
previously reported as income from continuing operations has been reclassified to income from discontinued operations in the comparative figures (see Note 3). The condensed income
