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.

The Supervisory Board met at 17 regular and two correspondence sessions in 2020. During the course of 2020, it ensured the responsible and high-quality supervision of the operations of Telekom Slovenije and the Telekom Slovenije Group. The Supervisory Board 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 the findings, proposals and careful assessment of committees, the Supervisory Board adopted the appropriate decisions and continuously informed stakeholders following sessions. In accordance with the Slovenian Corporate Governance Code, the Supervisory Board hereby declares that all costs in connection with its work are disclosed in this annual report.

Based on the above-described continuous monitoring and supervision of the operations and management of Telekom Slovenije and Group companies during the 2020 financial year, and based on the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020, 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 the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije.

The Supervisory Board assesses that the Management Board of Telekom Slovenije successfully managed the Company's transactions during the 2020 financial year and achieved established objectives, particularly taking into account the extraordinary circumstances the declared COVID-19 pandemic brought to the telecommunications sector and the highly competitive environment in which the Company operates.

Approval of the annual report and the proposed use of the distributable profit for 2020

The Supervisory Board discussed the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020 at its session on 23 April 2021. 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 2020.

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 2020, together with the auditor's report for 2020, immediately after compilation and the issuance of the auditor's opinion. The annual report was discussed by the Supervisory Board at its session held on 23 April 2021. The annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020 was audited by the audit firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, d. o. o., which issued an unmodified opinion regarding the financial statements of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije. At its second extraordinary session held on 23 April 2021, the Audit Committee of Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board discussed the audited annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020 and found that the annual report was compiled in a timely, clear and transparent manner, and in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act (ZGD-1), the applicable International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union, and other relevant legislation. The audit committee had no comments with respect to the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020, and proposed that the Supervisory Board approve the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije, d. d. for 2020 in accordance with Article 282 of the ZGD-1.

Based on the auditor's opinion, the position of the Audit Committee, and data and disclosures in the annual report, Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board assesses that the auditor performed its work independently and professionally in accordance with valid legislation and business practices, that the annual report was compiled, in all material aspects, in accordance with the requirements of the ZGD-1, and that the financial statements fairly present, in all material aspects, the financial position of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije as at 31 December 2020, and their operating results and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union. The Supervisory Board has no remarks regarding the auditor's report. It also has no comments regarding the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020 that would in any way inhibit its decision to approve the annual report.

Thus, in accordance with the third paragraph of Article 282 of the ZGD-1, the Supervisory Board of Telekom Slovenije hereby approves the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020. The Supervisory Board approved the annual report for 2020 by the prescribed deadline, i.e. within one month from its submission by the Company's senior management.

When adopting the annual report, the Supervisory Board also took a position with regard to the corporate governance statement and statement of compliance with the reference code, which are included in the business report section of the annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group and Telekom Slovenije for 2020, and assessed that they are a reflection of the actual governance of the Company in 2020.

1.1 Criteria for setting the variable element of remuneration and the gross amount of the granted right to variable remuneration for the previous financial year

The Supervisory Board defined the objectives and criteria for the calculation of the variable element of remuneration of the Company's Management Board for 2019 in accordance with provisions of the Act Governing the Earnings of Management Staff at Companies Under the Majority Ownership of the Republic of Slovenia and Self-Governing Local Communities (ZPPOGD) and the employment contracts of Management Board members.

The Management Board's objectives comprise quantitative and qualitative objectives, as well as financial and nonfinancial objectives that are defined for the purpose of monitoring the work of the Management Board, which focuses on

the long-term success of the operations of the Company and the Group. The methodology for that calculation is defined by the Supervisory Board, taking into account the ratio of achieved and planned results during the financial year following the conclusion of the financial year and the auditing of the financial statements.

Members of the Management Board received 50% of variable remuneration for 2019 in 2020, while the payment of the other 50% of variable remuneration for 2019 was deferred for two years. Members of the Management Board whose term of office was terminated were also paid the second part of variable remuneration for 2019. The length of the term of office during the financial year is also taken into account when setting the amount of variable remuneration.

* Taking into account Article 4 of the Act Governing the Earnings of Management Staff at Companies Under the Majority Ownership of the Republic of Slovenia and Self-Governing Local Communities (ZPPOGD), Dean Žigon was only entitled to 50% of remuneration and thus received EUR 5,891.45, as his term of office lasted for less than two years.

The amount attributable to a Supervisory Board member under the quoted regulation shall be made gross so that the net payment reimburses the actual travel costs. The distance between destinations as calculated at the AMZS web site is taken into account for the determination of the mileage. The accommodation costs may only be refunded if the distance of the permanent or temporary residence of a Supervisory Board member or a member of a Supervisory Board's committee from the location of the work of the body amounts to a minimum of 100 kilometres, if the member of the Supervisory Board could not return to their place of residence because of the lack of any scheduled public transport, or for other objective reasons.

Explanation:

On 5 June 2020, Telekom Slovenije, d. d.'s General Meeting of Shareholders adopted a decision regarding the remuneration of Supervisory Board members in accordance with Appendix 2 to the Corporate Governance Code for Companies with Capital Assets of the State (hereinafter: the Code) adopted by Slovenski državni holding, d. d.

On 17 March 2021, Slovenski državni holding, d. d. adopted amendments to the Code that relate, inter alia, to the remuneration of supervisory board members. Those changes allow the Supervisory Board to define supplemental payments to its members for special tasks based on the authorisation of the General Meeting of Shareholders. Appendix 2 to the Code was amended accordingly and lays out a sample General Meeting of Shareholders resolution defining the remuneration of supervisory board members. Point 3 of that appendix defines supplemental payments for special tasks.

Given the above, it is hereby proposed that Telekom Slovenije, d. d.'s General Meeting of Shareholders adopt a resolution regarding the remuneration of Supervisory Board members that is in line with amended Appendix 2 to the Code and that does not result in any changes to the currently valid resolution of Telekom Slovenije, d. d,'s General Meeting of Shareholders of 5 June 2020 regarding the amounts of session fees and basic wages for the performance of functions.

Materials for item 8 of the agenda:

AUTHORISATION TO PURCHASE TREASURY SHARES

The Company's Management Board and Supervisory Board hereby propose that the General Meeting of Shareholders of Telekom Slovenije, d.d. adopt the following

resolution:

The Company's General Meeting of Shareholders hereby authorises the Management Board to purchase and dispose of treasury shares under the following conditions:

  • i) The Company's Management Board shall be authorised to purchase treasury shares, whereby the total proportion of the Company's share capital accounted for by all treasury shares, together with the shares that the Company already holds on the day this authorisation is issued, shall not exceed 10% or 653,547 shares.
  • ii) Authorisation to purchase treasury shares shall be valid for 36 months from the day this resolution is adopted.
  • iii) The Company may purchase treasury shares via transactions concluded on the regulated securities market at the currently valid market price. Treasury shares may also be purchased outside the regulated securities market (over-the-counter). When purchasing shares on the regulated securities market or over-the-counter market, the purchase price for shares shall not be less than 0.45 times the book value per share, calculated based on the most recent published financial statements of the Telekom Slovenije Group, and shall not be more than 0.80 times the book value per share, calculated in the same manner.
  • iv) The Company may use treasury shares purchased on the basis of this authorisation for the following purposes:
    • to replace participating interests in other companies in the scope of implementing its takeover strategy;
    • for further sale to a strategic partner; and
    • for sale on the regulated market.
  • v) The pre-emptive right of existing shareholders shall be excluded in full in the disposal of treasury shares in accordance with point iv) of this resolution.
  • vi) Based on the consent of the Supervisory Board, the Company's Management Board shall be authorised to withdraw treasury shares by way of resolution, without the additional convening of the General Meeting of Shareholders to decide on the reduction in share capital.

Explanation:

In accordance with the eighth indent of the first paragraph of Article 247 of the ZGD-1, the Company's General Meeting of Shareholders may authorise senior management to purchase treasury shares. That authorisation shall be valid for a maximum of 36 months, and shall set out the lowest and highest purchase price for shares and the number of shares that may be purchased. The total proportion of shares purchased on the basis of this authorisation, together with other treasury shares already held by the Company, shall not exceed 10% of share capital.

We assess that it is appropriate to create a treasury share reserve that can be used to replace participating interests in other companies in the scope of implementing the Company's takeover strategy, for the sale of treasury shares to a potential strategic partner and for sale on the regulated market. If purchased treasury shares are not used for the abovestated reasons, the Company's Management Board shall be authorised to reduce share capital through the withdrawal of treasury shares.

We propose that the General Meeting of Shareholders authorise the Management Board to purchase treasury shares up the maximum amount of 10% of all shares issued by the Company.

The Company shall purchase treasury shares based on this authorisation in accordance with valid legislation. The Company shall report on changes in the balance of treasury shares in accordance with valid regulations. In accordance with the third paragraph of Article 247 of the ZGD-1, the Management Board shall report to future General Meetings of

Shareholders regarding the purchase of treasury shares based on the proposed authorisation of the General Meeting of Shareholders.

We also propose that the pre-emptive rights of existing shareholders be excluded in the event of the disposal of purchased treasury shares, which shall be based on a report on justified grounds for the full exclusion of pre-emptive rights in the disposal of treasury shares.

Report on justified grounds for the full exclusion of pre-emptive rights in the disposal of treasury shares

The Company's treasury shares may represent an additional source of financing for the takeover of companies on the market or for a potential link with a strategic partner. To that end, the Company's Management Board shall carefully assess whether the financing of a transaction via treasury shares purchased on the basis of this authorisation is relevant and appropriate in a specific case.

In the case of the financing of the above-stated transactions via treasury shares, the pre-emptive rights of existing shareholders cannot be ensured, as those rights shall be offered to the owners of companies that are the target of potential takeovers or to strategic partners.

Given the above facts, we assess that the exclusion of the pre-emptive rights of existing shareholders in the potential disposal of treasury shares is justified and in the interest of the Company.
