An item placed at the request of a shareholder in connection with the planned changes in the composition of the Supervisory Board. There are no changes to the 6-person composition of the Supervisory Board of CIECH S.A. of the current term of office, as determined by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of CIECH S.A. on 22 June 2018.
Bearing in mind the Company's interest, the Company's Management Board considers it necessary to create a mechanism and basis for the acquisition of own shares in the Company. Pursuant to Article 362 § 1 point 8 of the Commercial Companies Code, the General Meeting's competence includes decisions to authorise the Management Board to buy back its own shares. The Management Board shall request such authorisation in the form of a relevant resolution of the General Meeting. The Management Board's intention has its justification in the assessment and analysis of the Company's share price trends on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.
According to the Management Board, the scope of such authorisation is compliant with Article 362 § 1 point 8 of the Commercial Companies Code. The purpose of the share buy-back allows for the redemption of shares by way of reduction in the Company's share capital, for a paid sale or use for the acquisition or exchange of shares or stocks in other companies. The amounts of the share buy-back proposed in the resolution take into account the Company's financial capabilities. The implementation of the programme will not affect the Company's further development or the adopted strategy of its development. The repurchase itself and its parameters require the prior consent of the Company's Supervisory Board.
In order to repurchase own shares, it is necessary to create a reserve capital on the basis of a separate resolution.
