Then the chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl has asked the Chairman of the Board of Directors Mr. Henri Bonnet to bring forward a commentary on this item on the Agenda.

Mr. Henri Bonnet has said that the whole report was part of source documents for the shareholders who could read it. Therefore he only presents the most important items. (The report was accompanied by visual presentation)

After decline of GDP in 2009 we have seen a recovery of the Czech economy especially thanks to export. This is further contributed by investments in solar energy: according to our analysts, its contribution corresponds to 0.5%. The economic recovery is also evidenced by growing volume of credits to businesses and small clients.

Mr. Bonnet then dwelled for a few moments on the business activity of the Bank's Group. He has stated that the Bank and Modrá pyramida have seen a moderate decline in numbers of clients by 2 and 4%, respectively. On the other hand, our subsidiary ESSOX, which concentrates on consumer credits, has maintained its market share achieved at the time of the crisis and has stabilised portfolio of its clients.

In 2010, we have reviewed efficiency of our branch units and closed 3 points of business in the Czech Republic. Thus we have 395 branch units. In 2011, we intend to open and relocate several points of business so as to come nearer to our clients and provide them with improved and better services (thus getting back at least at the 2009 level, when we had 398 branch units). We have 20 business centres for enterprises and municipalities as well as 4 commercial divisions. The MPSS network had 219 points of business by end of 2010 employing almost 1,500 trade representatives. Over 440 of them were in full-time and exclusive employment.

Mr. Bonnet has further focused on the situation in deposits of the Bank's Group at the end of 2010. The Group's overall deposits dropped by 2.5%.

Small /retail clients still prefer safe and conservative products. This is confirmed by growth in deposits to our KB Pension Fund by 5.6%.

The changes in legislation relating to building saving taxes has not yet have any impact on the volume of deposits in Modrá pyramida. On the contrary, we have seen a 2.9% growth. Among other things, Modrá pyramida has been named the best building saving society in the Czech Republic for the sixth time.

Businesses facing decline in turnovers and consequently in incomes used far more funding. Part of our clientele consists of municipalities and state administration, which had to cope with lower budget due to lower tax incomes. Consequently, the volume of deposits was down by 4.8%.

In all segments of our clientele, we have perceived pressure of our competitors, who continued to offer highly attractive revenue rates.

As to the credit activities of the Komerční Banka Group, the Chairman of the Board of Directors has stated that overall volume grew 3.5% year on year, with increased growth at the end of the year. Following economic recovery the businesses started investing again. The 2.3-pcz growth in volume of credits to enterprises is supported by 2 segments: small and medium sized industrial enterprises and corporate clients.

In private clientele segment we have achieved very satisfactory results, in particular in increase of volume of mortgages (+9%) and 9% growth of loans from building saving realised by Modrá pyramida. On the other

7


hand, the volume of consumer credits declined by 3.4% due to lower confidence of households in their ability to repay credits (as always is the case in crises times).

The table presented below shows the main indicators of our results consolidated according to IFRS standards. The Komerční Banka group has reported a net profit of CZK 13.33 billion, an increase by 21.1% over 2009. The net banking profit has grown slightly (+1.5%) to CZK 32.7 billion.

The international rating agencies rank Komerční Banka on top level among Czech banks. Among positive strongpoints is the stability of our portfolio of clients and long-term relationships we endeavour to build up as well as our financial qualities e.g. liquidity and capitalisation.

He has further focused on the Bank's priorities for 2011.

Satisfaction of our clients is the main motive of our activity. Therefore we want to strengthen out consulting services. Also, we are going to significantly invest in the development and upgrading of the network of our branch offices.

To support loyalty of our clients we intend to focus on mortgages and consumer credits. We are also going to develop the savings products and products aimed at long-term investments.

Together with our all subsidiaries we are working on improving sale of products by our subsidiaries in the Bank's network and as for the Modrá pyramida, on increasing sale of the Bank's product in MPSS network.

Concluding his speech he has said that Komerční Banka must continue to remain firm and stable. Only in this way long-term relationships to clients can be developed. The financial crisis has clearly and rightly shown that only a long-term relationship based upon mutual trust may lead to stability.

He has stated that he is sure that the development will be positive this year. He has thanked the shareholders for their trust and loyalty.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl has thanked the Chairman of the Board of Directors Mr. Henri Bonnet for his report presented and asked whether there was or is submitted a written request for explanation, proposal, counterproposal or protest relating to this item on the Agenda. This was not the case. Mr. Pavel Henzl then he asked if anyone there presents any oral request for an explanation, or a proposal, counterproposal, or objection to this item on the Agenda.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl noted that according to information of scrutineers, before voting on the proposal which will be presented, the General Meeting constitutes a quorum and is thus competent to adopt resolutions, as shareholders are present at the General Meeting holding shares with a nominal value representing in aggregate 78.48% of the Registered Capital of the Bank.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl presented a draft resolution as follows:

"Resolution No. 3: The General Meeting approves the Board of Directors' report regarding the Bank's business activities and the state of its assets and liabilities for the year 2010 submitted and presented by the Board of Directors."

Then the chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl stated that an absolute majority of votes of attending shareholders is required for adoption of the proposed Resolution and subsequently, he called shareholders for splitting of the ballot paper with the serial number of the voting round 3 and subsequent dropping the ballot paper to the ballot box, provided that the green ballot paper is intended to express consent with the proposal, a the red ballot paper for the expression of disagreement with the proposal, and the yellow ballot paper is intended for the case that the shareholder will abstain from voting. At the same time, he asked the scrutineers to take their offices, and to inform him on the termination of collecting the ballots.

After completion of voting, the chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl has read the preliminary results of voting on the Resolution No. 3 expressed as percentage of votes as follows: for the time being 89.97 % of votes of attending shareholders voted for the Resolution.

Thereupon the chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl stated that the Resolution No. 3 has been adopted by the required absolute majority of votes and that the definite result of voting will be communicated to the attending shareholders in the course of the General Meeting and will be included in the Minutes of proceedings of the General Meeting.

The result of voting on the Resolution No. 3 was then announced and read from the report of scrutineers by the chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl in the closing of the General Meeting as follows:

The voting was attended by shareholders owning or representing shares with nominal value of CZK 14,892,597,500, which represents 78.47 % of the registered capital of the Bank.

For the proposal voted shareholders holding 29,774,622 votes representing 99.964502 % of the present number of votes. No one voted against. Shareholders holding 5,766 votes representing 0.019359 % of the present number of votes abstained from voting. Shareholders holding 4,807 votes representing 0.016139 % of the present number of votes have not cast their ballots. No one cast invalid vote.

Agenda item 4 - Discussion about the Annual Financial Statements with the proposal for the distribution of profit for the year 2010, and about the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year 2010

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl has stated that shareholders have obtained documents No. 3, 4, and 5 and the Annual Report to this item on the Agenda and that voting will be taken within points 7, 8 and 9.

He has further reminded the shareholders that the Ordinary Financial Statements, the Consolidated Financial Statements and the report on relationships between related entities jointly with other documents had been available for them from 16 March 2011 for inspection in the registered office of the Bank and accessible for download at respective web sites of the Bank. The shareholders have them available as part of the Annual Report of the Bank. The main data of both the not consolidated and consolidated Financial Statements are part of the notification on venue of today's General Meeting.

Thereupon the chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl asked Mr. Pavel Čejka, Chief Financial Officer for Strategy and Finance, to comment on this item of the Agenda.

Chief Executive Officer for Strategy and Finance Mr. Pavel Čejka has in turn commented on the presentation screened in front of the meeting hall.

Mr. Pavel Čejka has stated by way of introduction that he will present a report on the financial statements of the Bank and the Bank's Group for 2010, on financial results of 2010 and a commentary on the proposal of 2010 profit distribution. He has further stated that the Bank achieved very good results in 2010, with net profit 21 % above the level of 2009. The moderate growth in net operating incomes (by more than 1 %) is based on a drop of financial costs by over 4% and on a positive risk cost reduction by 39 %. Overall capital adequacy is at 15.3 % and capital adequacy represented by TIER 1 index is 14 %, allowing the board of directors to propose the dividend at the below stated level and giving the Bank room for continued growth. The Bank also maintains a good liquidity, with credits to deposit ratio at 7.5 %, which does not restrict further financing of the clients in the future, neither limiting another growth of credits. The Bank also preserves a very good efficiency as measured by cost to income ratio, namely 40 %, which is the level of the best European banks. The moderate increase in revenues/incomes includes the growth of net credit income. In both 2009 and 2010, the credit portfolio for the financing of both corporate and individual clients has slightly grown. Although the growth slowed down as against previous years, it still had positive impact on the Bank's results. Incomes from fees and commissions grew slightly by 2.5 % (e.g. crediting fees or fees for sale of financial products – e.g. life insurance). Operating costs were reduced in personal costs by almost 7 %, partly by decrease in number of employees by 2 % and partly by reduction in additional employee benefits, and also due to one-off items. Costs of depreciation, devaluation and sale of assets, which was positively reflected in the prior year, were the only growing item. Decrease in risk costs by more than 39 % is another significant item of the Bank' profit, the costs being 5 billion in 2009 and dropping to 3,115 billion in 2010. As for the results of the Bank as such – the previous data related to the Komerční Banka Group – the trends do not differ inasmuch as the Bank represents 90 % of the Group's results. There was a moderate decline in net operating incomes, whereas the trend of reducing costs and risk cost is the same as in the Group.

As for the proposal of profit distribution – net profit of Komerční Banka Group for 2010 was CZK 13.3 billion, the highest ever profit since privatisation of the Bank, permits the board of directors to propose a significantly higher dividend raising from CZK 170 for 2009 to CZK 270 for 2010. The proposed dividend represents a fair dividend revenue of more than 6 % leaving the Bank another room for continued growth of the credit portfolio and for the financing of further growth but also a room for hedging against any uncertainties due to e.g. regulation or the environment.

The proposed dividend of CZK 270 per share represents a 77% ratio of consolidated net profit or 85 % of the Bank's profit excluding the Group.

Since Bank's privatisation in 2001, annual average growth in share value has been 15 %, and as high as 20% after inclusion of dividends. In terms of short-term valuation for the shareholder, there was a growth by 13% in 2010 as against 2010 and including the dividend income, by almost 17 %.

10


As to item 13 on the agenda of the General Meeting – decision on acquisition of own shares – a proposal for purchase of own shares is submitted to the General Meeting as in prior years, in a price range from 500 up to 6,000 CZK per share for 18 months up to 10% of the Bank’s registered capital.

As to item 14 – appointment of an auditor for audit of Komerční Banka and Komerční Banka Group for 2001 – the same auditor’s firm is proposed which issued a verdict without reserve for 2010, i.e. Ernst & Young Audit, s.r.o.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl thanked Mr. Pavel Čejka and asked whether a written request for explanation, a proposal, counterproposal, or objection to this item on the Agenda was submitted. Yes, this was the case - shareholder Mr. Martin Müller submitted two queries.

Martin Müller has handed in a request for explanation on creation of reserves and adjusting items for credit losses:

  1. In 2008 and 2009 very significant reserves and adjusting items were created with an negative impact on net profit of 2008 and 2009. By contract, the creation of reserves and adjusting items significantly dropped in 2010 with a large positive influence on the net profit of 2010. Mr. Müller called this fact a release of reserves and adjusting items from 2008 and 2009 and put the following questions:
    a) can the same effect of release of reserves as in 2008 and 2009 be expected for 2010 or were these reserves already released in 2010?
    b) will the adjusting items and reserves continue to decline this year or their growth is expected?

Further, he asked questions about dividends

  1. For 2010, dividend of CZK 270 is proposed, representing about 76 % payment ratio to the net profit. In long term, dividend payment is about 60 % of net profit. Also the declared long-term outlook is between 55 – 65 %. Mr. Müller has further asked:
    a) what was behind the decision to pay an above-standard high dividend,
    b) whether a long-term outlook on 55-65% ratio has changed, If so, how? Please give an outlook for 1 year and outlook for 5 years
    c) can the increased payment ratio of 76 % be also expected in the next year?

The questions were answered by the Chief Financial Officer for Strategy and Finance, Mr. Pavel Čejka, who first spoke on the release of reserves. He has said that the release of reserves as such did not take place in 2008 and 2009. In 2010, creation of adjusting items has substantially dropped because of improved state of the credit portfolio, of the Czech economy and of Czech enterprises. If the situation of clients improves, release of adjusting items may occur in some cases. There are significantly less clients who had troubles with repayment or those who had to be classified in bad credits category, so that creation of adjusting items to these clients is also significantly lower.

Mr. Čejka has further said that the same effect cannot be expected in 2010; the best estimate for this year is at the level of adjusting items in the fourth quarter of 2010.

The main reason of the above-standard dividend at CZK 270 per share is the fact that the Bank thanks to profitability generated a large amount of capital, hence the capital adequacy has grown to more than 15 %, a level higher than necessary. A long-term outlook for dividends is very difficult in the current environment. Before recession, our guide was a payment ratio between 50 and 60 %. It is not possible to commit to the current high payment ratio of 77 % and it would not be responsible to determine a target payment ratio, inasmuch as many uncertainties persist as to demands on the capital of the Bank. One of the sources of the uncertainties is a new regulation, so-called Basel III, which allows the regulator to demand sufficient capital of banks, be it for the system-significant banks or the additional capital outbalancing the economic cycles. As these additional demands are unknown and probably will not be known during this year, this fact presents a big uncertainty for determining larger payment ratios. The second large source of uncertainties in general is the environment of not only Czech, but in particular European economy, the state risks or economic development in general.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl, has then asked whether anyone has any other written request for explanation re this item of the Agenda. This was not the case.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl has then asked whether anyone has any other oral request for explanation, proposal, counterproposal or protest relating to this item on the Agenda. Yes, this was the case.

A shareholder introducing himself as Tomáš Dočkal presented a question what is the purpose of acquiring its own shares by Komerční banka, i.e. with a view of decreasing the registered capital, of meeting obligations out of swap transactions or, as the case may be, of meeting option obligations.

Pavel Čejka has replied that it is a possible alternative of managing the capital adequacy of the Bank, or the dividend alternative as a potential „backup tool“. In its history, the Bank acquired a very small number of own shares several years ago. We do not use this tool actively, but as a consent of the General Meeting is necessary, the Bank wants to leave this option open.

Another oral inquiry was presented by shareholder Mr. Jindřich Kubát.

Jindřich Kubát asked about the Consolidated Statement of Financial Standing as of 31 Dec 2010. In passive items, there was a large growth in payables to banks, or there was a large increase of these liabilities as against the prior year from CZK 18 to 29 billion. Towards which banks the liabilities of the Bank increased? Towards the parent company, Czech National Bank (ČNB) or other banks? If toward SG, under what terms?

Mr. Čejka has answered that, generally speaking, the liabilities towards the Bank are mainly short-term, arising from trades on financial and capital markets. Compared to 2009, they have not significantly changed towards parent company SG in 2010. Receivables towards related companies including SG are regulated by ČNB and cannot exceed 20% of equity of the Bank, i.e. so-called regulatory limit. The Bank has never exceeded this limit and is still below it. Detailed info will be handed to the shareholder outside of this commentary after processing the requested data in the information centre.

Mr. Henzl thanked Mr. Čejka and presented another written question of shareholder Mr. Martin Müller:

Martin Müller has submitted a written request for explanation relating to the value of PIIGS + USA debentures held by the Bank, namely towards Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, Spain and the USA, all as of today, 31 Dec 2009, as of 31 Dec 2010 + maturity dates.

The inquiry was answered by Mr. Pavel Čejka, who first returned to the question regarding receivables and payables to related companies. He has said that the list of banks including accounts receivable is in the annual report on pages 131 and 132. Total accounts receivable towards the group drop from 25.5 billion in 2009 to 24.2 billion at end of 2010. The biggest single receivable of not quite 16 billion is towards SG Paris.

All transactions of the Bank are carried out in market conditions. Another big receivable is the crediting of SG Equipment. Finance Czech Republic, which is the SG leasing company in the Czech Republic.

Deposits grew from 23 billion in 2009 to 31 billion in 2010. The biggest deposits come from SG Group in Paris – they grew from approximately 21 billion in 2009 to 28.5 billion at the end of 2010.

Mr. Pavel Henzl thanked Mr. Pavel Čejka and thereupon asked whether anyone has any written query. This was not the case.

Further he asked, whether anyone has an oral request for explanation, proposal, counterproposal, or objection to this item on the Agenda. Yes, this was the case.

Mr. Vladimír Běhůnek took the word and as a long-standing shareholder of the Bank expressed his satisfaction with the results of the Bank and the dividend and with the economic results of the Bank even in such difficult economic situation and expressed his wish to sustain the dividend in that amount in the year to come.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl asked Mr. Čejka to answer the question regarding debentures.

Chief Financial Officer for Strategy and Finance Mr. Pavel Čejka has stated that the engagement of the Bank was approximately the same in 2009, 2010 and as on 31 March 2011 and is, as on 31 March 2011 CZK 257 million towards Portugal (negligible amount compared to the whole portfolio); as of the same date, CZK 8.2 billion towards Italy; CZK 7.6 billion towards Greece (amortised book value); and CZK 298 million towards Spain. There is no engagement towards Ireland and USA.

Maturity: Greece about 70% in 1st half of 2013, remainder between 2014 and 2016; Italy in 2013, 2014 and partly in 2015.

Mr. Čejka has added that these are the significant engagements, whereas the other remain insignificant.

The chair of the General Meeting Mr. Pavel Henzl thanked Mr. Čejka for answers to the questions and asked whether there is another written or oral question to that item on the agenda. There were none. Voting
