In 2012, further shareholder loans of €29.9 million (2011: €34.9 million) were issued to Siltronic Samsung Wafer Pte. Ltd., Singapore. The addition was shown under other financial assets. Over and above the interest and repayment agreements, the loan agreements grant WACKER the right – as is already the case with existing agreements – to convert the loan into equity (call option). The call options have differing exercise periods, with the longest running until March 31, 2016.
In addition, a shareholder loan in the amount of €87.9 million was disbursed in 2012 to Zhangjiagang-based Dow Corning (ZJG) Co. Ltd., China.
Shareholder loans were granted at normal market terms.
Further financial information on associated companies and joint ventures is contained in Note 23.
