| On 13 July 2015, the Lower Chamber of the Polish Parliament voted in favour of revisions to a draft total cost of credit amendment law issued by the Ministry of Finance. If the legislation is enacted as currently drafted, all non-interest costs in connection with a consumer loan agreement may be subject to the cap. At this stage there can be no assurance that the legislation will not have some adverse financial impact on the prospects of the Issuer. |
