Enclosure
Telekom Slovenije's Supervisory Board comprises nine members. The composition of the aforementioned body changed on 13 May 2016, when the General Meeting of Shareholders was briefed on the resignation of Matej Golob Matzele and elected Dimitrij Marjanović to a four-year term of office. I, Borut Jamnik, have served as President, and Adolf Zupan and Dean Žigon have served as my Vice-Presidents of the Supervisory Board since the latter's constitutive session.
The composition of the Supervisory Board is quite diverse in terms of education, work experience and personal traits, which facilitates the effective exchange of opinions at sessions. The work of the Supervisory Board and its committees was professional and focused on the effective performance of their function. The Supervisory Board held 20 sessions in 2016, 12 of which were ordinary sessions, while eight were correspondence sessions. Sessions were held at the Company's registered office, while the assessment of the Supervisory Board's effectiveness was performed outside the Company's business premises.
At its first session in 2016, the Supervisory Board adopted the Company's strategy for the period 2016 to 2020 and reorganised Telekom Slovenije's Management Board. The sitting President of the Management Board Rudolf Skobe was appointed to a new four-year term of office, effective 1 September 2016. Zoran Janko left his position on the Management Board following the expiration of his term of office. The Supervisory Board and Mateja Božič agreed on the latter's recall. The Supervisory Board therefore appointed two new members to the Management Board for a four-year term of office. Aleš Aberšek will be responsible for finance and economics, while Ranko Jelača will be responsible for the market. Both members' terms of office began on 15 March 2016.
The most important topics at sessions of the Supervisory Board for the remainder of 2016 were linked to the monitoring of the ordinary operations of the Company and Group, the supervision of the implementation of Telekom Slovenije's strategy, the management of business risks and the assessment of the Management Board's work.
The efficiency of the Supervisory Board was assessed in October 2016 based on the manual governing the assessment of the efficiency of work of supervisory boards. That assessment was carried out using a selfassessment matrix developed by the Slovenian Directors' Association for conditions in Slovenia. Following analysis and discussion, an action plan was then drawn up to further improve the Supervisory Board's work in the future.
Towards the end of 2016, the Supervisory Board discussed and approved the Company's revised strategy for the period 2017 to 2021, and approved an increase in the capital of TSmedia and the appointment of new management at Antenna TV SL.
The Supervisory Board continuously monitored the existence of potential conflicts of interest between its members. No such circumstances arose in 2016 with respect to Supervisory Board members.
The Supervisory Board had five committees in 2016. Those committees discussed topics related to the Supervisory Board's work and advised the latter in important matters. This contributed significantly to improving the work and effectiveness of the Supervisory Board.
In addition to the Audit Committee, HR Committee, Technical Committee and Committee to Monitor Strategic Projects and the Drafting of the Strategic Plan, the Supervisory Board also appointed the Nomination Committee in 2016. The latter was appointed to assist in the drafting of proposed criteria and candidates for membership on the Supervisory Board.
The Supervisory Board continuously monitored the work of its committees and the implementation of their resolutions. As part of the assessment of its own effectiveness, the Supervisory Board gave its committees the highest possible assessment. The work of committees is described in detail in the section Corporate governance in the Business Report section of the annual report.

Members are fully liable for the performance of their supervisory function and make their decisions independently. Members prepare themselves adequately for topics discussed at individual sessions, and put forward constructive proposals and comments. Based on written and oral information received from the Management Board, they make decisions in accordance with their respective competences, the Company's acts and legal powers. The Supervisory Board and Management Board have built mutual trust through open dialogue and cooperation.
On the basis of the aforementioned continuous monitoring and supervision of the management of Telekom Slovenije and Group companies during the 2016 financial year and based on the consolidated annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group for 2016, 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.
The Supervisory Board assesses that the Management Board of Telekom Slovenije successfully managed the Company's transactions during the 2016 financial year and achieved established objectives.
The Supervisory Board thoroughly reviewed the annual report of Telekom Slovenije, d. d. and the Telekom Slovenije Group for 2016 by the legally prescribed deadline. The Supervisory Board finds that the Telekom Slovenije Group operated in accordance with established objectives during the 2016 financial year.
The Supervisory Board was briefed on and discussed the audit report, in which the certified auditors of KPMG, d. o. o. find that the financial statements, which are an integral part of the annual report, present a true and fair picture of the financial position of the Company and the Group, their operating and financial results and changes in equity. The Supervisory Board had no comments or reservations regarding the audit report that would prevent the adoption of a decision to approve the annual report and consolidated annual report.
Pursuant to Article 282 of the Companies Act, the Supervisory Board hereby approves the annual report of Telekom Slovenije, d. d. and the consolidated annual report of the Telekom Slovenije Group, with the accompanying audit report for 2016.

Pursuant to Article 16(2) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 on specific requirements regarding statutory audit of public-interest entities, an audit committee shall submit a justified proposal for the appointment of an auditor, unless it concerns the renewal of an audit engagement.

In the course of a competitive procedure to appoint a provider of auditing services, the audit firm Deloitte revizija, d.o.o., compiled a high-quality tender with adequate references for the auditing of public-interest entities. The team that will provide the auditing services is structured in a high-quality manner and integrated into all the companies comprising the Telekom Slovenije Group, in particular through the direct presence of an auditing network in Republika Srpska (Blicnet d.o.o. Banja Luka) and Kosovo (IPKO Telecommunications LLC). In addition to certified auditors, the team also includes experts in the field of information technology, valuation and taxes, which is important from the point of view of providing comprehensive audit services for the Telekom Slovenije Group. On the basis of a presentation of the tender at the session of the supervisory board's audit committee held on 13 February 2017, the representatives of the audit firm Deloitte revizija, d.o.o. displayed an extremely good knowledge of the Telekom Slovenije Group and its policies. The tender to provide audit services also includes a pricing aspect assessed as satisfactory by the audit committee, where it should be pointed out that the audit committee gives precedence above all to the provision of auditing services of suitable quality. The appointment of the proposed audit firm also ensures that the high concentration of any audit of the telecommunications market will not fall on the shoulders of a single auditor.
No third party exerted any influence on the proposed appointment for the auditing of the financial statements of Telekom Slovenije, d.d., the Telekom Slovenije Group, individual subsidiaries and other audit assurance services as part of the annual audits for 2017, 2018 and 2019.
The proposal to appoint the auditors has been compiled in accordance with the Guidelines for Ensuring the Independence of the Auditor of the Financial Statements of the Telekom Slovenije Group. No contractual undertaking was adopted that would have restricted the choice of invited tenderers.
