Materials for item 3 of the agenda:

Slovenski državni holding, d. d., which represents or accounts for 66.7955% of the Company's share capital, hereby proposes that the Telekom Slovenije, d. d.'s General Meeting of Shareholders adopt the following
The General Meeting of Shareholders shall adopt the following amendments to the Company's Articles of Association:
The President of the Management Board shall be appointed by the Supervisory Board, while other members of Management Board shall be appointed by the Supervisory Board based on the proposal of the President of the Management Board, except for the Workers' Director, who shall be appointed based on the proposal of the Works Council.
The President of the Management Board shall have the right to propose one or more candidates as members of the Management Board to the Supervisory Board within 15 days of the latter's request to do so. The Supervisory Board shall make decisions regarding proposed candidates. If the President of the Management Board does not propose candidates by the aforementioned deadline or if the Supervisory Board does not appoint the candidate proposed by the President of the Management Board, the Supervisory Board may, at its own discretion, call on the President to submit another proposal, and/or make use of other available channels (public call for applications, direct search, etc.) to search for candidates.
The term of office of the President and other members of the Management Board shall be four years, with the possibility of re-appointment.
In addition to the conditions set out in regulations, members of the Management Board shall also meet the following conditions:
The conditions set out in the previous paragraph shall not apply to the Workers' Director as a member of the Management Board. Those conditions and criteria shall be defined jointly by the Supervisory Board and Works Council.
The Supervisory Board shall make decisions at its sessions.
The Supervisory Board shall be deemed quorate if at least six of its members are present when resolutions are adopted. Of those six, as least four shall be shareholder representatives and at least two shall be employee representatives.
Notwithstanding the previous paragraph, the Supervisory Board may adopt a valid resolution in the absence of employee representatives, if:
(a) those persons have not been appointed; or
(b) the Supervisory Board adopts a special resolution determining that employee representatives of the Supervisory Board were properly invited to a session in a timely manner, but did not attend that session.

In this case, the Supervisory Board shall be deemed quorate if at least five of its members are present. Of those five, four shall be shareholder representatives, while the other member may be a shareholder representative or employee representative.'
With the Supervisory Board's consent, the Management Board may state in the convening of the General Meeting of Shareholders that shareholders may participate in and cast votes at the General Meeting of Shareholders by electronic means, without being physically present (electronic General Meeting of Shareholders).
The members of management or supervisory bodies may participate in the General Meeting of Shareholders via the transmission of picture and sound, if the General Meeting of Shareholders in question is held electronically in accordance with the fourth paragraph of Article 297 of the ZGD-1 and in other cases set out in the rules of procedure of the General Meeting of Shareholders.
The following rules shall be observed in the event of an electronic General Meeting of Shareholders:
The Company's Management Board shall be authorised to define detailed rules of procedure for participating in and voting at an electronic General Meeting of Shareholders, as well as other aspects of holding such a meeting, and shall publish those rules on the Company's website and/or in the publication of the convening of the General Meeting of Shareholders.'
In accordance with their corporate membership rights, the Company's shareholders are entitled to make decisions regarding changes to the Company's Articles of Association at the General Meeting of Shareholders. Given the above, SDH requests that the Company's Management Board add to the agenda of the convened General Meeting of Shareholders a proposal to amend Telekom Slovenije's Articles of Association in accordance with the provision of Article 296 in connection with paragraph 3 of Article 295 of the ZGD-1.
SDH believes that the proposed amendments to the Articles of Association will improve the governance of Telekom Slovenije, as those changes would introduce a delegate system for formulating the Company's Management Board within the limits permitted by valid legislation. This means that the President of the Management Board would be given the power to select and propose other members of the Management Board to facilitate the formulation of an appropriate management team. Because it is necessary to ensure the Company's business continuity and because the Supervisory Board is still responsible for appointing the Management Board according to the law, the proposed provision was formulated in such a way that the Supervisory Board would be able to discharge its responsibility in a timely manner, i.e. appoint a Management Board that meets the required conditions.
With regard to the proposal to amend the provision of paragraph 2 of Article 29 of the Articles of Association, SDH believes that this is necessary in order to ensure the parity of the composition of the Company's Supervisory Board,

as envisaged by the Articles of Association. The latter states that the Supervisory Board shall have nine members, six of whom are shareholder representatives and three of whom are employee representatives. According to SDH, the aforementioned parity between shareholder and employee representatives must be taken into account in the actual work of the Supervisory Board. In accordance with the provision of paragraph 3 of Article 257 of the ZGD-1, the Supervisory Board shall be deemed quorate if at least half its members are present when resolutions are adopted, unless the Articles of Association stipulate otherwise. Taking into account the envisaged number of Supervisory Board members and the above-mentioned legal requirement, the parity of the Supervisory Board's composition in the adoption of resolutions can only be achieved if at least six members of that body are present.
To avoid the possibility of a "blockade" of the Supervisory Board's work by employee representatives and thus the obstruction of the Company's ordinary operations, SDH also proposes that the provision of paragraph 2 of Article 29 of the Articles of Association be further supplemented with a paragraph that allows the Supervisory Board to hold a quorate session even when that session is only attended by shareholder representatives, but only if it is expressly established prior to the adoption of decisions that the conditions required for the quoracy of the Supervisory Board cannot be met because: (a) at least two of the three employee representatives of the Supervisory Board were not appropriately appointed; or (b) all employee representatives were properly invited to a session of the Supervisory Board in a timely manner, but (voluntarily) did not participate. In this case, the Supervisory Board shall be deemed quorate and can adopt valid decisions if at least five of its members are present at a session. Of those five, at least four must be shareholder representatives, while the other may be either a shareholder or employee representative (to facilitate/ensure the minimum parity of the Supervisory Board's composition).
New Article 39a of the Articles of Association is linked to the legal option set out in the fourth paragraph of Article 297 of the ZGD-1, which stipulates that a company's articles of association may state that shareholders can participate in and vote prior to or at a general meeting of shareholders via electronic means without being physically present, and arrange the process so that participation and voting depend on requirements and limitations needed to determine the identity of shareholders and ensure secure electronic communications in a way that is proportionate with the achievement of those objectives.
In a period of increasing digitalisation, a company may organise an electronic general meeting of shareholders by laying down the appropriate legal basis in its articles of association. Holding an electronic general meeting of shareholders is also a preventive measure against the spread of COVID-19. Basic rules for organising an electronic General Meeting of Shareholders are set out in the Articles of Association, while the Management Board will adopt and publish detailed rules in accordance with its powers. In practice, the term hybrid general meeting of shareholders is also used to refer to an electronic general meeting of shareholders, as a general meeting of shareholders is typically organised as a meeting with the physical presence of members of the Management Board, the chair of the general meeting of shareholders, members of the Supervisory Board, a notary public and shareholders at the site of that meeting. Shareholders are also offered the option (possibility) to not be physically present at the site of the meeting, but to use remote electronic means. The possibility of using remote electronic means can also be made available to the members of management and supervisory bodies. The proposed new provision of the Articles of Association thus includes that possibility. In practice, at least the President of the Management Board will be physically present at the site of the General Meeting of Shareholders to open the meeting.

The decision on increasing the share capital with the issue of new shares, the share type and class, shall be made by the General Meeting with a three-quarter majority of the share capital represented at the vote. Existing shareholders have a pre-emptive right to subscription of new shares in proportion to their share in the Company's share capital. The pre-emptive right can be eliminated solely on the basis of the General Meeting's resolution adopted by a three-quarter majority of the share capital represented at the vote.
The Management Board must publish a notice inviting existing shareholders to subscribe for and pay up for the new shares in proportion to their current participation no later than 14 (fourteen) days from the General Meeting's resolution on increasing share capital by issuing new shares. Existing shareholders must subscribe to newly issued shares within 30 (thirty) days from date on which the notice was published, unless defined otherwise in each resolution on the issue of new shares.
The pre-emptive right is exercised by a written statement, which the entitled shareholder must send to the Management Board within the deadline set by the resolution on the issue of new shares.
If the existing shareholders do not exercise their pre-emptive rights and do not subscribe for the issued shares within the set deadline, the Management Board may freely invite third parties to subscribe for and pay up for the new shares.
The procedure of issuing, and conditions of subscribing for and paying up for shares are determined by law and with each General Meeting's resolution on the issue of new shares.
The increase of share capital shall take effect on the date of its entry in the register of companies.
The General Meeting may decide, with a simple majority, to increase the share capital by transforming other items of the equity capital into the share capital. The resolution on the increase of the share capital with other items of the equity capital shall be based on the most recent audited annual balance sheet.
If the share capital is increased according to this article, this may also be done without issuing new shares, in which case the resolution on the increase must state the method of the increase. If new shares are issued, the existing shareholders are entitled to new shares in proportion to their share in the Company's share capital. When increasing the share capital out of the reserves, the latter must not be reduced below the legally set minimum.

The Company may reduce the share capital if so required by law or if so decided by the General Meeting with a three-quarter majority of the share capital represented at the vote. The resolution must include the reason or purpose and the method for decreasing the share capital.

Materials for item 5 of the agenda:
Slovenski državni holding, d. d., which represents or accounts for 66.7955% of Telekom Slovenije, d.d.'s share capital hereby proposes that Telekom Slovenije, d. d.'s General Meeting of Shareholders adopt the following
In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board comprises nine members, six of whom are shareholder representatives and three of whom are workers' representatives in accordance with the Worker Participation in Management Act.
The Slovenian Sovereign Holding Company (SSH) was informed of the resignations of two members and the president of Telekom Slovenije, d.d.'s Supervisory Board via the Ljubljana Stock Exchange's SEOnet electronic notification system on 19 October 2020, as follows: Bernarda Babič, Barbara Cerovšek Zupančič, members, and Aleš Šabeder, the president. All the aforementioned members tied the enforcement of their letters of resignation to the date of the appointment of new members to Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board.
It is evident from Telekom Slovenije's public notice 1 of the resignations that the two members and president of the Supervisory Board stepped down "due to the current situation, disagreements and varying views as to the role of Telekom Slovenije, d.d.'s Supervisory Board, and their work becoming impossible, and due to the current situation in the Company's Supervisory Board they can no longer carry out their duties with the level of due diligence required of a supervisor."
With the resignations of those three Supervisory Board members, which accounts for half of the shareholder representatives, a situation arose in which three new members had to be appointed to the Supervisory Board in accordance with Article 26 of the Articles of Association, under which a supervisory board requires nine members.
One of the key tasks of the SSH in managing state capital investments is to ensure the suitable composition of the supervisory bodies of companies managed by the proposer. The second paragraph of Article 21 of the ZSDH-1 expressly imposes a requirement on the SSH to vote at companies' general meetings in a such a way to ensure that the supervisory boards of companies with a state capital investment are comprised as a whole of members who complement each other in terms of their expertise and competences ('line composition of the supervisory board'). The SSH is required to vote in a way that enables the appointment of members to supervisory boards who are experts in finance, corporate governance, company operations (performance) and of other professional profiles,

which are required for effective supervision according to the activity, scope of operations and other characteristics of companies.
As a result of this, the SSH filed a motion before the Ljubljana District Court on 29 October 2020 on the basis of Article 276 of the ZGD-1 for the appointment of replacement (temporary) members to the supervisory board, and based on this motion the district court on 3 November 2020 issued order no.: Ng 49/2020 (this order became final the same day, i.e. on 3 November 2020), in which it granted SSH's motion in full and:
(a) as of the date on which the order was issued and for the period until the election of new members to Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board at the General Meeting of Shareholders, but for no more than one year, appointed Boštjan Koler, Dimitrij Marjanović and Štefan Belingar to serve as shareholder representatives on Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board, and in doing so also established (b) that as of the date on which the aforementioned order was issued the function of the members of the Supervisory Board who handed in their resignations shall cease to be valid.2
The SSH therefore ensured the immediate appointment of new, temporary members of the Supervisory Board (shareholder representatives), which will perform their function until the appointment of new members to the Supervisory Board at the Company's General Meeting of Shareholders, thereby preventing the 'blockade' of the continuous business operations of Telekom Slovenije.
In that regard the SSH established that it is very clear from the content of the resignations of the Supervisory Board members that the main reason for their resignation was that there were disputes and a lack of trust between the Supervisory Board members, which apparently could not be resolved between the members themselves. Disputes and lack of trust clearly did not relate to just these three members who resigned. As a result a situation arose in which the Supervisory Board due to these internal disagreements could no longer carry out appropriate oversight over the Company's operations. In view of this, the SSH proposes the recall of another member of the Supervisory Board (shareholder representative) and the appointment of four new members (shareholder representatives), who through them being unburdened, heterogeneous and having varying experience and a constructive approach could ensure the proper functioning of the new Supervisory Board. In the new complement of personnel of the Supervisory Board four new members were proposed as shareholder representatives, while two existing members shall ensure continuity in the work and diversity of the Supervisory Board's composition. With the election of new Supervisory Board members (on the basis of Article 256 of the ZGD-1) the function of the (temporary) members of Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board, who were appointed with the court's order of 3 November 2020 indicated above, shall cease to be valid. A separate resolution from the General Meeting on the dismissal of these Supervisory Board members was therefore not required in the SSH's opinion.
In accordance with their corporate membership rights, the Company's shareholders are entitled at the General Meeting of Shareholders to recall and elect the supervisory board members who represent shareholders. In view of this, the SSH in the role of Telekom Slovenije's shareholder and manager of the investments of the Republic of Slovenia (the majority shareholder of Telekom Slovenije) requires the Management Board to convene an extraordinary shareholders' meeting, and pursuant to the provisions of Articles 274 and 275 in conjunction with the third paragraph of Article 295 of the ZGD-1 table the following on the agenda of the meeting: (a) the recall of one member of the Supervisory Board (shareholder representative) and (b) the appointment of four new members of the Supervisory Board (shareholder representatives) for a term of four years.
In accordance with item 2 of the second paragraph of Article 297a of the ZGD-1 the SSH cites data on candidates for a company's supervisory board (shareholder representative), which it nominates for election:
