Note: The figures for the 2004 contributions are merely indicative and will in accordance with Article 40(2) of the
Financial Regulation be corrected for each individual Member State for the difference between the contribution
paid for 2002 and the contribution needed to finance the actual expenditures in 2002. These corrections will be
made when the 2004 contributions are called up before 1 December 2003.

Due to rounding off the totals might differ from the sum of the individual amounts.
