The foreign currency exchange rate gains and losses result from the measurement of financial receivables and liabilities denominated in foreign currency and the measurement of the related derivatives. The year-over-year increase in foreign currency exchange rate gains and losses (see also note [10] Other expenses) is primarily attributable to more volatile exchange rates compared with 2010.

The remeasurement of purchase price obligations relates to shares held for two UK dealers. The gains on the remeasurement of purchase price obligations result from the significantly improved market environment and the resulting increase in the value of the shareholdings.
