Telekom Slovenije, d.d. (hereinafter: Telekom Slovenije) hereby issues its corporate governance statement in accordance with the fifth paragraph of Article 70 of the Companies Act, and the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code and the Corporate Governance Code for Companies with Capital Assets of the State.
The corporate governance statement is an integral part of the audited annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije, d.d. for 2022. It relates to the period 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022. We also disclose significant events after the aforementioned period and up to the publication of the statement. The corporate governance statement is accessible in electronic form, for a minimum of five years from the date of its publication, on the Company's website at https://www.telekom.si/en/about-us/company/corporate-governance and in the Ljubljana Stock Exchange's electronic information system athttp://seonet.ljse.si.
Corporate governance at Telekom Slovenije and within the Telekom Slovenije Group is based on the following principles and guidelines:
The Corporate Governance Policy defines a system for segregating responsibilities and competences between members of management and supervisory bodies, the role of Supervisory Board's committees and the protection of employees' interests. It also defines groups of stakeholders, a strategy for communication and cooperation with those groups, a policy governing links between the Company and its subsidiaries, and a commitment to identify conflicts of interest and to ensure the independence of members of the Supervisory Board and Management Board.
The Supervisory Board and Management Board adopt updates to the Corporate Governance Policy, taking into account current guidelines in the area of corporate governance, as well as binding regulations and best practices.
The Corporate Governance Rulebook of the Telekom Slovenije Group defines the rules, criteria and mechanisms for managing and supervising companies in the Telekom Slovenije Group. The Instructions on the Implementation of the Corporate Governance Rulebook of the Telekom Slovenije Group defines the way in which the corporate governance of subsidiaries is implemented in individual areas.
The Management Board and Supervisory Board function in accordance with the law and other regulations, the Articles of Association of Telekom Slovenije, d.d. and the rules of procedure of the Management Board and Supervisory Board.
The Corporate Governance Policy of Telekom Slovenije, d.d., the rules of procedure of the Management Board and the other documents linked to corporate governance are publicly accessible on the Company's website at https:// www.telekom.si/en/about-us/company/corporategovernance.
Telekom Slovenije, as a public interest entity whose securities are traded on the regulated securities market, and as a company with capital assets of the State, took into account the corporate governance recommendations set out in the following documents to the greatest extent possible during the 2022 financial year:
In its work and operations, Telekom Slovenije also complies with the guidelines set out in the Code of Ethics of the Telekom Slovenije Group of 1 February 2017 (published on the Company's website at www.telekom.si/en).

Telekom Slovenije explains below deviations from individual recommendations set out in the aforementioned code:
Recommendations 4.1 and 4.3: Telekom Slovenije adopted a Diversity Policy in 2020 in accordance with the recommendation of the Code. The Company deviates in part from this recommendation, as targets are stated in descriptive terms, but not in numerical terms or percentages, except with regard to gender diversity.
Recommendation 6.1: No consultative resolution on the remuneration policy was adopted at the Company's 34th General Meeting of Shareholders. The remuneration policy that applies at Telekom Slovenije is in line with the law. The Company will further study the recommendations of Slovenski državni holding, and submit an adjusted remuneration policy to shareholders for consultative voting at the Company's regular General Meeting of Shareholders in 2023.
Recommendation 7: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from this recommendation, as an umbrella Sustainable Business Policy has not yet been adopted. However, sectoral policies and rules are in place. A Sustainable Business Policy will be adopted in 2023.
Recommendation 7.9: Telekom Slovenije's sustainability report is integrated into its annual report. We published the report of the Telekom Slovenije Group according to the 2021 EU Taxonomy separately. Data for 2022 are disclosed in the annual report in point 8.4.1 Disclosures of indicators for economic activities that are included in the 2022 EU Taxonomy.
Recommendation 10.10: Telekom Slovenije deviated in part from this recommendation in 2022 because the justification of a proposal for shareholders at the 35th General Meeting of Shareholders regarding the election of new members of the Supervisory Board did not include an assessment of potential conflicts of interest and an assessment of whether the proposed candidates are independent in relation to the Company according to the criteria set out in the Code. The aforementioned aspects were verified during the candidacy procedure in accordance with legal provisions and the recommendations of the Code.
Recommendation 15.1: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from the recommendation with respect to the definition of an annual training plan for members of the Supervisory Board and the members of its committees, as an annual plan as a unique document is not defined.
Recommendation 16.4: Telekom Slovenije did not comply with this recommendation, as an external evaluation of the assessment of the Supervisory Board was not performed. A self-assessment of the Supervisory Board was published for 2021.
Recommendation 22.1: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from this recommendation, as it does not have a succession system in place for the Management Board; internal candidates are appropriately considered in the scope of the selection process.
Recommendation 32.7: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from this recommendation, as it has only published the rules of procedure of the Management Board on its website.
Telekom Slovenije explains below deviations from individual recommendations set out in the aforementioned code:
Recommendations 6.1, and 6.2.1 to 6.2.3: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from this recommendation, as it has not adopted a succession policy in the form of a single document; internal candidates are appropriately considered in the scope of the selection process.
Recommendation 6.14.2: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from this recommendation. Given the current relevance and complexity of individual matters, the Supervisory Board's Audit Committee met at more sessions in 2022 than the recommended number.
Recommendation 8.3: Telekom Slovenije deviates from this recommendation to a lesser degree because the variable element of the remuneration of Management Board

members is not disclosed separately in terms of qualitative and quantitative criteria. The Company does not disclose the remuneration and other rights of the management staff of subsidiaries in its annual report. It does, however, present that information for the three largest subsidiaries at the General Meeting of Shareholders.
Recommendation 8.4: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from this recommendation, as all costs incurred by the Supervisory Board are not disclosed separately as stated in the recommendation because they are not booked to a separate cost centre.
Recommendation 11.2.1: Telekom Slovenije deviates in part from this recommendation, as the position of compliance and integrity officer is not classified separately. The compliance and integrity officer is appointed by resolution of the Management Board.
Telekom Slovenije adheres to the Recommendations and Expectations of Slovenski državni holding to the greatest extent possible. Telekom Slovenije's position regarding the recommendations and expectations is published on the Company's website at: (https://www.telekom.si/en/ about-us/company/corporate-governance).

The Management Board manages transactions and represents the Company independently, and is liable for its own actions in that regard. It makes decisions that are in line with the Company's strategic objectives, taking into account the principles of sustainable development and the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders. The responsibilities of individual members of the Management Board are set out in the rules of procedure of that body and in the resolution defining the business areas and responsibilities of Management Board members, to which the Supervisory Board gives its consent.
The Management Board met at 63 regular and three correspondence sessions in 2022.
In March 2022, Telekom Slovenije entered into an agreement with DBA informacijske tehnologije and DBA Group S.p.A. on the purchase of a 100% participating interest in ACTUAL I.T., informacijske tehnologije, d.d. That agreement was concluded on 28 March 2022, but the transaction was not completed for reasons beyond the Company's control.
The Management Board adopted a number of other business decisions and carried out the following activities:
The remuneration, composition and amount of earnings of Management Board members are set out in employment contracts taking into account the Act Governing the Remuneration of Managers of Companies with Majority Ownership held by the Republic of Slovenia or Self-Governing Local Communities (ZPPOGD), the Decree setting the highest correlation between the basic salary and the amount of variable remuneration of directors (hereinafter: the Decree) and the remuneration policy for members of Telekom Slovenije, d.d.'s Management Board and Supervisory Board.
The Supervisory Board sets objectives for the Management Board for every financial year, based on the approved annual business plan and certain key indicators. The Management Board's objectives comprise quantitative and qualitative objectives, as well as financial and non-financial objectives that are defined for the purpose of monitoring the performance of Management Board members. The earnings of Management Board members comprise a basic salary, variable performance-based remuneration, and other rights and benefits.
The remuneration policy states that variable remuneration based on financial criteria (e.g. sales revenue and EBITDA) amounts to at least 50%, while remuneration based on non-financial criteria (e.g. overall transactional NPS, the achievement of social responsibility objectives and sustainable operations) is at least 30%.
According to the aforementioned Decree, the basic salary of Management Board members may amount to a maximum of five times the average gross salary within the Telekom Slovenije Group, where the salary of an individual member of the Management Board is determined taking into account their powers, duties, experience, responsibilities, scope of work and the Company's financial situation.
The conditions for profit sharing by the Management Board are governed by the Company's Articles of Association. The earnings of Management Board members in 2022 are presented in the separate report, Report on the remuneration of members of Telekom Slovenije's Management Board and Supervisory Board for 2022, and in the accounting report in point 42 Related party transactions.

In the scope of its competences, the Supervisory Board ensured the responsible and high-quality supervision of the operations of Telekom Slovenije and the Telekom Slovenije Group in 2022. It met regularly, and discussed different aspects of operations and monitored the implementation of plans. Specific topics were discussed in advance by the Supervisory Board's committees. Based on findings, proposals and careful assessment by those committees, the Supervisory Board adopted decisions and informed stakeholders after its sessions.
The Supervisory Board comprises nine members, six of whom are shareholder representatives and three of whom are employee representatives. When selecting candidates for Supervisory Board members, diversity in terms of knowledge, skills, experience and other personal circumstances of candidates (gender, age, education, etc.) is taken into account, in addition to the required level of qualifications, reputation and integrity.
The composition of the Supervisory Board changed as follows during 2022:
The composition of the Supervisory Board is diverse, as its members complement each other in terms of their expertise, competences, experience, age, gender, work method and other aspects. This facilitates the effective exchange of opinions and views at sessions.
In accordance with the Corporate Governance Code, the Supervisory Board hereby declares that all costs in connection with its work are disclosed in this annual report and are not disclosed separately.

Based on the above-described continuous monitoring and supervision of the operations and management of Telekom Slovenije and Group companies during the 2022 financial year, and based on the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2022, as compiled and submitted by the Management Board, the Supervisory Board assesses that the annual report and disclosures contained therein reflect the actual situation and position of Telekom Slovenije Group subsidiaries and Telekom Slovenije.
The Supervisory Board assesses that the Management Board of Telekom Slovenije successfully managed the Company's transactions during the 2022 financial year and achieved established objectives, particularly taking into account operations in the highly competitive environment in which the parent company and subsidiaries operate.
The Supervisory Board discussed the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2022. Based on its review of the annual report and financial statements (including the notes thereto), and its review of the Management Board's proposal on the use of distributable profit and the certified auditor's report, the Supervisory Board confirmed the audited annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije, d.d. for 2022.
Pursuant to the third paragraph of Article 272 of the Companies Act (ZGD-1), Telekom Slovenije's Management Board submitted the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2022, together with the auditor's report for 2022, immediately after compilation and the issuance of the auditor's opinion.

The Audit Committee had no comments with respect to the annual report for 2022, and proposed that the Supervisory Board approve the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2022 in accordance with Article 282 of the ZGD-1.

The Supervisory Board approved the annual report for 2022 by the prescribed deadline, i.e. within one month from its submission by the Company's senior management.

Pursuant to the fifth paragraph of Article 70 of the Companies Act (ZGD-1), Telekom Slovenije hereby issues the following explanations:
Risk management and the system of internal controls represent integral elements of corporate governance within the Group. The established risk management framework is based on the identification, assessment, management, reporting on and monitoring of risks, with the aim of responding and mitigating exposure to risks in a timely manner.
In connection with the financial reporting process, the system of internal controls ensures the appropriate management of risks, the ethical operations of Group companies, precise, reliable, timely and complete accounting records, and true, fair and transparent external and internal financial reporting that is in accordance with the law, the adopted accounting framework and regulations, and the guidelines and policies of the Group.
Information support is provided for the accounting process. Internal controls are therefore built into the IT infrastructure, which comprises, inter alia, controls over restrictions on access to data and applications, and controls over access to data and applications as a way to control the accuracy and completeness of data capture and processing.
Established internal accounting controls are an integral part of the Group's system of internal controls in the processes and organisational units of companies, and at all levels of operations. The Group strives to ensure an appropriate system of internal controls that includes:
The owners of internal controls are responsible for the consistent implementation of controls, the documentation of the functioning of internal controls and proposals for improvements. A report is drafted once a year on the selfassessment of internal controls at the parent company and subsidiaries to provide a comprehensive overview of the establishment and functioning of internal controls.

The value of Telekom Slovenije's share capital is EUR 272,720,664.33 and is divided into 6,535,478 ordinary registered no-par-value shares. All shares constitute one class and are issued in dematerialised form. Each share represents the same stake and corresponding amount in share capital, while all shares have been paid up in full. Each share gives its holder the right to one vote at the General Meeting of Shareholders, a proportionate share of profits (payment of dividends) and a proportionate share of residual assets after the liquidation or bankruptcy of the Company. Shares are listed on the prime securities market of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange. Detailed information regarding shares and the ownership structure is presented in section 6 Share trading and ownership structure.
Telekom Slovenije has not issued securities that would provide special controlling rights.

Ω Rules on the Appointment and Replacement of Members of Management and Supervisory Bodies The Supervisory Board appoints members of the Management Board in accordance with its legal powers and statutory provisions. To that end, it prudently and responsibly assesses the fulfilment of the required qualifications. In accordance with the above, the Supervisory Board also defined the candidate selection process, additional conditions that candidates must meet and procedures for determining the appropriateness of candidates in the Criteria and Procedures for Determining the Appropriateness of Candidates for Members of the Management Board.
The Supervisory Board formulated criteria and professional profiles for members of the Company's Supervisory Board (competence profile) in June 2016, taking into account the specific nature of the Company. Those criteria ceased to apply with the adoption of the Competence Profile for Members of the Supervisory Board of Telekom Slovenije, d.d. of 12 February 2020. That profile is publicly accessible on the Company's website.
Telekom Slovenije constantly strives to improve corporate governance practices in its operations, including proactive corporate communication with various stakeholders. The Company communicates in the manner set out in Telekom Slovenije, d.d.'s Corporate Governance Policy, the Communications Strategy of Telekom Slovenije, d.d. and the Policy on Communication with the Shareholders of Telekom Slovenije, d.d.
With the listing of its shares on the prime market of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange, the Company undertook to comply with the relevant reporting standards. Telekom Slovenije once again provided investors with high-quality, timely, relevant and reliable information in 2022.
With the aim of ensuring that Telekom Slovenije Group companies and employees comply with the law, other rules, applicable recommendations and bylaws, the Telekom Slovenije Group's Compliance Management Policy defines the purpose and objectives of compliance management, an integrity plan and powers and responsibilities. The compliance management system facilitates the identification of risks and the implementation of measures to manage those risks. Playing an important role in that framework are preventive actions, and rapid and effective measures in the event of identified breaches. For more information, see section 8.1.2 Compliance and anticorruption.
Telekom Slovenije will continue to strive in the future to comply with and introduce the highest standards and best practices in the area of corporate governance, both at the parent company and at other Telekom Slovenije Group companies.
