The increase in European Governments refundable advances relates mostly to accrued interest. Regarding the interest expense on European Governments refundable advances see Note 10 “Total finance costs”. Due to their specific nature, namely their risk-sharing features and the fact that such advances are generally granted to EADS on the basis of significant development projects, European Governments refundable advances are accounted for by EADS within “Other Liabilities” on the balance sheet including accrued interest.

Included in “Other liabilities” are 15,573 M € (15,986 M € as of December 31st, 2005) due within one year and 6,330 M € (5,621 M € as of December 31st, 2005) maturing after more than five years. Included in the “Current other liabilities” are liabilities relating to construction contracts having a maturity of more than one year.

Advance payments received relating to construction contracts amount to 2,198 M € (2,363 M € as of December 31st, 2005).
