III. Description of individual components of the remuneration of Members of the Management Board

The total remuneration of Members of the Management Board is comprised of fixed remuneration, variable remuneration and additional, non-monetary elements resulting from the Remuneration Policy.

1. Fixed remuneration of Members of the Management Board

Monthly fixed remuneration for individual Members of the Management Board of the Company ranges from 7-times to 15-times the base rate referred to in art. 1 sec. 3 point 11 of the Act on the principles of remuneration.

The Supervisory Board sets the level of fixed remuneration.

In 2023, monthly fixed remuneration for individual Members of the Management Board of the Company was as follows:

  • for the President of the Management Board: 15 times the base rate,

  • for the Vice Presidents of the Management Board: 14 times the base rate.

The base rate was the average monthly salary in the corporate sector, excluding payments from profit in the fourth quarter of 2022, announced by the President of the Central Statistical Office, i.e. PLN 6 965.84.

2. Variable remuneration of Members of the Management Board

Variable remuneration depends on the level of achievement of the management goals set for each reporting year of the Company and may not exceed 100% of the annual fixed remuneration. In the case of a Manager functioning in the position for a period of less than one reporting year, with the provision that the contract was performed for a period of at least three months, variable remuneration is calculated proportionally.

The management goals, as well as assessment of their execution, are set by the Supervisory Board no later than by the end of the first quarter of the given reporting year.

3. Other benefits accruing to members of the Management Board

Members of the Management Board, pursuant to the Remuneration Policy, were also entitled to additional components of remuneration and other monetary and non-monetary benefits. The Company incurred or refinanced costs related to a Management Board Member's serving in the function and execution of the management services contract to the extent required to properly fulfil this function and execute the contract.

A Management Board Member may join the Employee Pension Program under the principles of the group agreement in this regard, under the proviso that the amount of the basic monthly premium under this Program is contained in the amount of the fixed remuneration for this period.

In accordance with the Remuneration Policy and the management services contracts (Contract) a Management Board member is entitled to the following benefits funded by the Company:

  • Coverage of a life insurance agreement under the group life insurance policies already in place in the Company, including in the event of death, accident or illness. The coverage corresponds to that provided to the management staff, with the only difference being that if the Manager chooses a unit-linked life insurance policy, the portion of the premium relating to this option will not be funded by the Company;
  • local housing appropriate to the Function served (in respect of which the Company covers the cost of such housing to the net amount of PLN 2 500);
  • incurring or refinancing costs of individual training for the Manager related to the Contract in question and contractual obligations, in each case with the prior consent of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Company.

The contracts signed with the members of the Management Board regulate the question of compensation in the case of termination, with or without notice, of the management services contract for reasons other than breach of the contract's basic obligations. They stipulate that the Company will provide severance pay of three

times the amount of the fixed monthly part of remuneration (if the contract was in force for at least 12 months).

The contracts with the members of the Management Board – both during the period of employment as well as following the period of employment – deal with the question of forbidding competition. In particular, they provide that for a period of six months from the date when employment in the function ceases, they are not allowed to engage in any competing activities. For adherence to the clause on forbidding competitive activities, KGHM pays the Management Board member compensation throughout the period during which competitive activities are banned in the amount of 50% (and in the case of the President of the Management Board 100%) of the monthly fixed remuneration. The condition for payment of the compensation in question is to serve in the function of manager for at least six months and having provided the Company with an appropriate written declaration.

The amounts of the aforementioned benefits assigned to individual Members of the Management Board are presented in Table 3.

Moreover, the Contracts also regulate issues involving the application (utilisation) of all resources (means) of the Company required to execute contractual obligations as well as adherence to security requirements as regards the collection and transfer of data, of which in particular:

  • office space together with technical and other equipment, including a personal laptop with wireless Internet access and other required equipment, and means of communication, including a cell phone;
  • a company car;
  • participation in conferences, seminars or meetings of a business nature related to the business activities of the Company and, in so far as is necessary to carry out these obligations, both domestic and international travel;
  • incurring costs of civil liability insurance for the Members of the Management Board due to the function served;
  • other benefits, in particular such as ensuring that the Company provide the Company's senior management with the appropriate internal regulations or resolutions of the Company's bodies – under condition that the Supervisory Board issues resolutions regarding the principles of granting or utilising such benefits by a member of the Management Board.

4. Rate of change of the results of the Company in the years 2019-2023

Definitions of parameters:

Adjusted EBITDA of the KGHM Group

Variable remuneration of Members of the Management Board, based on achievement of the management Goals described in Section V, is closely tied to adjusted EBITDA of the Company and adjusted EBITDA of the Group, due to the fact that the Management Board evaluates the results of the Company and Group through the use of these indicators, among others.

Pursuant to European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) Guidelines as regards Guidelines of ESMA on Alternative Performance Measures, adjusted EBITDA is an Alternative Performance Measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and as such it cannot be treated as an alternative performance measure as defined by IFRS, such as net profit/(loss), operating profit, net cash generated by operating activities, liquidity or other IFRS measure. Moreover, adjusted EBITDA does not have a single, set definition. The means of calculating this measure in other companies may vary significantly from the methods applied by the Company. Consequently, adjusted EBITDA for KGHM and the KGHM Group may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These measures should be treated as supplementary information, expanding the presentation of the results and other data of the Company and the KGHM Group.

At the stage of setting the degree of achievement of tasks, the following eliminations are made: Expected value of indicator = planned value, adapted to achieved costs of the accrued annual bonus as well as one-off, unplanned payments resulting from agreements with trade unions.

Volume of payable copper production by the KGHM Group – reflects total production by KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. as well as the 55% share of production by Sierra Gorda.

C1 cost of the KGHM Group (KGHM, KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD., 55% Sierra Gorda) - unit cash cost of producing payable copper in concentrate, reflecting costs of ore extraction and processing, transport costs, the minerals extraction tax, administrative costs during the mining stage, and smelter treatment and refining charges (TC/RC), less the value of by-products.

At the stage of setting the degree of achievement of tasks, the following eliminations are made: Expected value of indicator = planned value, adapted to achieved costs of the accrued annual bonus as well as one-off, unplanned payments resulting from agreements with trade unions.

LTIFR (Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate) – frequency of workplace accidents by employees of the Company KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. per million hours worked, calculated in accordance with Polish principles as regards statistics on the frequency of workplace accidents, i.e. the number of accidents at work per million hours worked.

Changes in the results of the Company y/y are presented in Table 12.

X. Remuneration from entities within the same Group

The contracts entered into with the Members of the Management Board to provide management services to KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. state that if a Member of the Management Board serves in a body of one of the Company's subsidiaries within the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, the said Member of the Management Board may not receive additional remuneration from serving in this function.

The Members of the Management Board in 2023 did not receive any remuneration from subsidiaries within the Group.

Amongst the Members of the Supervisory Board, additional remuneration from companies of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in 2022 was only received by employee-elected Members of the Supervisory Board. This was remuneration due to their employment as well as retirement benefits.

The remuneration received by Bogusław Szarek and remuneration due to employment and retirement benefits received by Józef Czyczerski due to their employment in the Company was combined with remuneration due to their serving on the Supervisory Board and is presented in part VII of this Report.

Przemysław Darowski did not receive additional remuneration from the Company, but did receive remuneration from other entities of the Group (from the company POL-MIEDŹ TRANS Sp. z o.o.). Total remuneration and employee benefits in 2023 amounted to PLN 126 199.73.

XI. Number of financial instruments granted or offered to the members of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board

The Remuneration Policy does not foresee the possibility of granting Members of the Management Board or Supervisory Board financial instruments, and therefore in 2023 the Company did not grant any financial instruments to Members of the Management Board or Supervisory Board.

XII. Information on utilisation of the possibility to demand a return of variable components of remuneration

Pursuant to Chapter V, sec. 3, point 6 of the Remuneration Policy, the Company has the right to claims for a return of the variable remuneration if, subsequent to its payment, it is determined that it was paid to the Member of the Management Board based on data which turned out to be false.

The Company in 2023 did not utilise the possibility to demand the return of variable components of remuneration due to the lack of any indications of a breach in these rules.

XIII. Information on refrainment from the procedure of implementation of the Remuneration Policy and on refrainment applied pursuant to art. 90f of the Act on public offerings

Chapter XI of the Remuneration Policy states that the Company does not foresee the possibility of temporarily refraining from the application of the Remuneration Policy.

Since the date of adoption of the Remuneration Policy by the General Meeting, the Company has not refrained from application of the Remuneration Policy, nor from the procedure of implementing the Remuneration Policy, nor taken any actions aimed at such refrainment.

XIV. Monetary or non-monetary benefits granted to persons closely related to Members of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board

The remuneration of Members of the Management Board and Supervisory Board does not include monetary or non-monetary benefits for persons closely related to Members of the Management Board and Supervisory Board as defined in art. 90g sec. 5 of the Act on public offerings.
