Annex 1: Regarding the allocation of dividends to the shareholders of AB "Ignitis grupė" for a period shorter than the financial year ended 30 June 2023

The Group's Dividend Policy (hereinafter – the Dividend Policy), which was approved by the Group's Management Board on 3 September 2020, is based on the initial fixed amount of EUR 85 million allocated for the financial year 2020, with a minimum increase of 3% for each subsequent financial year.

In accordance with the Dividend Policy, the Group paid EUR 85 million in dividends to the Group's shareholders for the financial year 2020, EUR 87.6 million in dividends for the year 2021, and EUR 90.3 million for the year 2022. Under the Dividend Policy, the Group should pay at least EUR 93.1 million in dividends or a dividend of EUR 1.286 per ordinary registered share for the financial year 2023.

After receiving an application from the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Lithuania (the Majority Shareholder) on 9 August 2023 with a proposal to allocate dividends for the first half of 2023, the Group proposes to allocate half of the dividend which could be paid under the Dividend Policy for the financial year 2023, i.e. EUR 46,546,101.28 in total or a dividend of EUR 0.643 per ordinary registered share for the six-month period ended 30 June 2023.

Accordingly, the Audit Committee made a decision before the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of the Group, in which it stated that it was not aware of anything significant that would suggest that these financial statements could not be submitted to the bodies of the Group for further acknowledgement and approval.

According to Article 19.10 of the Articles of Association of the Group, the General Meeting of Shareholders makes a decision regarding the allocation of dividends for a period shorter than the financial year.
