Pursuant to the provisions of the Rules of the Ljubljana Stock Exchange and the valid legislation, Telekom Slovenije, d.d., hereby publishes the following notification:

On 29 November 2021 Telekom Slovenije, d.d., received a ruling and a decision of the Ljubljana Higher Court regarding the commercial dispute of SKY NET, d.o.o. versus Telekom Slovenije, d.d. (formerly Mobitel, d.d.), for the fulfilment of a contract according to two lawsuits (in the total amount of EUR 33 million), and because of declaration of a void contract following a counterclaim (in the amount of EUR 25 million). With this ruling and decision the Higher Court rejected the appeal of SKY NET, d.o.o., and confirmed the ruling of the court of first instance, which rejected the remaining part of the subordinate claim regarding the issued orders for the construction of 414 base stations and the orders for obtaining the documentation for 434 base stations. The court also ruled that SKY NET, d.o.o., is obligated to reimburse Telekom Slovenije, d.d., for legal costs in the amount of EUR 39,611.52, and the costs of the appeal procedure in the amount of EUR 5,480.00.

The Higher Court also changed the ruling of the court of first instance regarding the statement of claim of Telekom Slovenije, d.d., for counterclaim relating to voiding the contract. The Higher Court has established that the contract concluded between the contracting parties in 2001 is null and void and has no legal effect.

This ruling of the Higher Court means that the subordinate claim of SKY NET, d.o.o., has been rejected finally.

This announcement will also be available on the company’s website (www.telekom.si) for a period of at least 5 years.
