CreaCell has been approved by the French authorities for the Research Tax Credit. This Approval ("Agrément CIR") is valid for 2009, 2010 and 2011. The CIR is based on the claimed volume of R&D expenditures (which include subcontracted R&D). It is equal to 30 % of R&D expenditures up to EUR 100 million; beyond this threshold, the rate comes down to 5 %. For French companies entering the scheme for the first time, the applicable rate is 50 % the first year, and 40 % the second year.
