Notes to the Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements

1. The Orange Polska Group

Orange Polska S.A. ("Orange Polska" or "the Company" or "OPL S.A."), a joint stock company, was incorporated and commenced its operations on 4 December 1991. The Orange Polska Group ("the Group") comprises Orange Polska and its subsidiaries. The Group is a part of Orange Group based in France. Orange Polska shares are listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

The Group is the principal provider of telecommunications services in Poland. The Group provides mobile and fixed telecommunications services, including calls, messaging, content, access to the Internet and TV. In addition, the Group provides IT and integration services, leased lines and other telecommunications value added services, sells telecommunications equipment, provides data transmission, constructs telecommunications infrastructure and sells electrical energy.

Orange Polska's registered office is located in Warsaw, Poland, at 160 Aleje Jerozolimskie St.

The list of entities included in the Condensed IFRS Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group (the "Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements") as at and for the 3 months ended 31 March 2021 is presented in Note 1.2 to the Orange Polska Group IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements ("IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements") for the year ended 31 December 2020.

2. Segment information and performance measures

The Group reports a single operating segment as decisions about resources to be allocated and assessment of performance are made on a consolidated basis. Group performance is evaluated by the Management Board based on revenue, EBITDAaL, net income, organic cash flows, eCapex (economic capital expenditures), net financial debt and net financial debt to EBITDAaL ratio based on cumulative EBITDAaL for the last four quarters.

Since the calculation of EBITDAaL, organic cash flows, eCapex and net financial debt is not defined by IFRS, these performance measures may not be comparable to similar indicators used by other entities. The methodology adopted by the Group is presented below.

EBITDAaL is the key measure of operating profitability used by the Management Board and corresponds to operating income before gains/losses on disposal of assets, depreciation, amortisation and impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, decreased by interest expense on lease liabilities and adjusted for the impact of deconsolidation of subsidiaries, costs related to acquisition, disposal and integration of businesses, employment termination programs, restructuring costs, significant claims, litigation and other risks as well as other significant non-recurring items.

Organic cash flows are the key measure of cash flow generation used by the Management Board and correspond to net cash provided by operating activities decreased by payments for purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and repayment of lease liabilities, increased by impact of net exchange rate effect received/paid on derivatives economically hedging capital expenditures and lease liabilities and proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and adjusted for the payments for acquisition of telecommunications licences, payments for costs related to acquisition, disposal and integration of businesses not included in purchase price and payments relating to significant claims, litigation and other risks.

Translation of the financial statements originally issued in Polish

eCapex (economic capital expenditures) is the key measure of resources allocation used by the Management Board and represents acquisitions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets excluding telecommunications licences, decreased by the proceeds accrued on disposal of these assets ('proceeds accrued on disposal of assets'). eCapex does not include acquisitions of right-of-use assets.

Net financial debt and net financial debt to EBITDAaL ratio are the key measures of indebtedness and liquidity used by the Management Board. The calculation of net financial debt is presented in Note 8.

3. Statement of compliance and basis of preparation

Basis of preparation

These unaudited Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 - Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") and with all accounting standards applicable to interim financial reporting adopted by the European Union, issued and effective as at the time of preparing the Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements (see also Note 4).

These Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements include the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated statement of cash flows and selected explanatory notes.

These Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.

Costs that arise unevenly during the year are anticipated or deferred in the quarterly financial statements only if it would also be appropriate to anticipate or defer such costs at the end of the year.

These Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in millions of Polish zloty ("PLN") and were authorised for issuance by the Management Board on 21 April 2021.

Adoption of standards and interpretations in 2021

There were no new standards or interpretations issued from the date when the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 were published.

4. Statement of accounting policies

The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of the Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements are materially consistent with those described in Notes 2 and 33 to the audited IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.

In the second quarter of 2020 the Group changed its accounting policy in respect of the determination of the lease term of cancellable leases. The change resulted from the IFRS Interpretation Committee's decision regarding lease term, issued in December 2019. The change was applied retrospectively and impacted the consolidated statement of financial position as at 1 January 2019. The Group assessed the reasonably certain lease terms of cancellable lease contracts to be equal to 5 years for all lease contracts, except for 18 years for road occupancy leases where fixed network infrastructure is placed. This change in accounting policy resulted in the recognition of additional

right-of-use assets and additional lease liabilities, mainly in respect of leases of premises and ground for fixed and mobile network infrastructure.

Adoption of changes described above affected the consolidated income statement, total comprehensive income and consolidated statement of cash flows for the 3 months ended 31 March 2020 as follows:

6. Explanatory comments about the seasonality or cyclicality of interim Group operations

The Group's activities are subject to some seasonality. The fourth quarter is typically a peak sales season with high commercial spending and with increased capital expenditures resulting from investment cycle management applied by the Group. Seasonally high capital expenditures in the fourth quarter are followed by higher payments to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets suppliers in the first quarter of the subsequent year resulting in higher cash used in investing activities.

7. Items affecting assets, liabilities, equity, net income or cash flows that are unusual because of their nature, size or incidence

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic

The situation related to COVID-19 pandemic is dynamic, Poland and other countries experience another wave of COVID-19, some restrictions have been imposed again. The pandemic has significantly impacted the Polish economy. Poland's GDP decreased by 2.7% in 2020 and it is estimated to have fallen by 2.0% in the first quarter of 2021 (year-on-year). At the same time the consensus indicates that GDP in Poland could return to low single digit growth in 2021 although the pace of the recovery is highly uncertain at the moment.

Since the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020, the Management has adopted a number of counteractive measures to mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic on Group's business performance. The results achieved by the Group indicate that the core of the Group's operations remain relatively immune to the impact of the pandemic. Data and voice connectivity has become more essential than ever to the needs

Translation of the financial statements originally issued in Polish

of consumers and businesses. The majority of revenue and profits are derived from subscription-based services, which allows the Group to rely on relatively stable and predictable revenue streams. Despite many restrictions which are in place, Group's distribution network remains open.

The Group assessed if there are any impairment indicators of telecom operator Cash Generating Unit and concluded that there are none as at 31 March 2021. Therefore, no impairment test was performed at this date.

In 2021, the Group performed a reassessment of the impact of COVID-19 on the bad debt allowance. As a result, the Group recognised no additional impairment of trade receivables in the 3 months ended 31 March 2021.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the Group, its financial position and performance in next periods depends on many factors which are beyond the control of the Group. These factors include, among others: the length and severity of the pandemic, measures taken by the government to limit the pandemic and to protect society from the effects of the crisis and in result its ultimate impact on the Polish economy. The Group will monitor the COVID-19 situation, its impact on the Polish economy, as well as indicators more specific to the Group.

Other events

As at 31 March 2021, Orange Polska reclassified PLN 364 million of property, plant and equipment to assets held for sale. They represent network assets that will be contributed or leased under a finance lease to Światłowód Inwestycje Sp. z o.o., a subsidiary of OPL S.A. On 11 April 2021, Orange Polska signed a preliminary agreement with APG Group (APG's subsidiary called Acari Investments Holding B.V.), based on which Orange Polska will sell 50% stake in Światłowód Inwestycje creating a joint venture which will build fibre infrastructure and offer wholesale access services (see also Note 12). Światłowód Inwestycje will become a jointly controlled entity, 50/50% owned by the Group and APG Group. It will be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position as an investment accounted for using the equity method and will cease to be fully consolidated at the moment of sale of 50% stake in Światłowód Inwestycje.

From 2021, as a result of an annual review of estimated useful lives of fixed assets, the Group extended the estimated useful lives for certain items of software which decreased the amortisation expense by PLN 33 million in the 3 months ended 31 March 2021 in comparison to previous year. Amortisation expense in 2021 relating to these assets is expected to be lower by approximately PLN 117 million in comparison to 2020.

The amount of trade payables subject to reverse factoring increased from PLN 117 million as at 31 December 2020 to PLN 195 million as at 31 March 2021. These payables are presented together with the remaining balance of trade payables, as analysis conducted by the Group indicates they have retained their trade nature.

8. Net financial debt

Net financial debt is a measure of indebtedness used by the Management Board. Since the calculation of this aggregate is not defined by IFRS, the methodology adopted by the Group is presented below:

(in PLN millions) At 31 March At 31 December
2021 2020
Loans from related party 5,822 5,990
Other financial liabilities at amortised cost 36 21
Derivatives – net (liabilities less assets) (79) (15)
Gross financial debt after derivatives 5,779 5,996
Cash and cash equivalents (396) (358)
Cash flow hedge reserve (34) (89)
Net financial debt 5,349 5,549

Translation of the financial statements originally issued in Polish

On 29 January 2021, the Group and Atlas Services Belgium S.A., a subsidiary of Orange S.A., concluded a Loan Agreement for PLN 2,700 million with repayment date in June 2026, which will refinance the Loan Agreement for PLN 2,700 million expiring in June 2021.

In the 3 months ended 31 March 2021, the net cash flows from issuance and repayments of the Revolving Credit Facility from Atlas Services Belgium S.A., a subsidiary of Orange S.A., amounted to PLN (160) million.

As at 31 March 2021, the total outstanding balance of loans from the related party amounted to PLN 5,822 million, including accrued interest and arrangement fees. The weighted average effective interest rate on loans from the related party amounted to 1.25% before swaps and 3.03% after swaps as at 31 March 2021.

In the 3 months ended 31 March 2021, the Group entered into new derivative transactions under the agreement with Orange S.A. hedging interest rate risk related to the Loan Agreement concluded in January 2021 described above. As at 31 March 2021, the total nominal amount of cross currency interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps, outstanding under the agreement with Orange S.A., was EUR 190 million and PLN 7,550 million, respectively, with a total fair value amounting to PLN 45 million.

9. Fair value of financial instruments

The Group's financial assets and liabilities that are measured subsequent to their initial recognition at fair value comprise derivative instruments and selected trade receivables arising from sales of mobile handsets in instalments. As at 31 March 2021 and 31 December 2020, the total fair value of derivatives amounted to PLN 79 million and PLN 15 million, respectively, and fair value of selected trade receivables arising from sales of mobile handsets in instalments amounted to PLN 212 million and PLN 211 million, respectively. The fair value of these instruments is determined as described in Notes 14.1 and 23 to the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020. Significant inputs to the valuation technique used by the Group to measure the fair value of derivatives and selected trade receivables are classified to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy described in Note 24.1.

The carrying amount of the Group's financial instruments excluding lease liabilities approximates their fair value, except for telecommunications licence payables and a loan from related party based on fixed interest rate for which as at 31 March 2021 the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying amount respectively by PLN 38 million and PLN 35 million (PLN 47 million and PLN 45 million as at 31 December 2020) due to significant change between the original effective interest rates at the date of the initial recognition and current market rates.

10. Changes in major litigation and claims, contingent liabilities and contingent assets since the end of the last annual reporting period

The information hereunder refers to the matters presented in Note 30 to the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 or describes major matters that occurred after 31 December 2020.

There were no significant developments in the cases separately disclosed in the Note 30 mentioned above.

Apart from those matters, operational activities of the Group are subject to legal, tax, social and administrative regulations and the Group is a party to a number of legal and tax proceedings and commercial contracts related to its operational activities. Some regulatory decisions can be detrimental to the Group and court verdicts within appeal proceedings against such decisions can have negative consequences for the Group. Also, there are claims including for damages or contractual penalties raised by counterparties to commercial contracts, or claims for other payments resulting from breach of law which may result in cash outflows.

Translation of the financial statements originally issued in Polish

Furthermore, the Group uses fixed assets of other parties in order to provide telecommunications services. The terms of use of these assets are not always formalised and as such, the Group is subject to claims and might be subject to future claims in this respect, which will probably result in cash outflows in the future. The amount of the potential obligations or future commitments cannot yet be measured with sufficient reliability due to legal complexities involved.

The Group monitors the risks on a regular basis and the Management Board believes that adequate provisions have been recorded for known and quantifiable risks. Information regarding the range of potential outcomes has not been separately disclosed as, in the opinion of the Group's Management, such disclosure could prejudice the outcome of the pending cases.

11. Related party transactions

As at 31 March 2021, Orange S.A. owned 50.67% of shares of the Company. Orange S.A. has majority of the total number of votes at the General Meeting of OPL S.A. which appoints OPL S.A.'s Supervisory Board Members. The Supervisory Board decides about the composition of the Management Board. According to the Company's Articles of Association, at least 4 Members of the Supervisory Board must be independent. The majority of Members of the Audit Committee of the Supervisory Board are independent.

The Group's income earned from the Orange Group comprises mainly wholesale telecommunications services and research and development income. The purchases from the Orange Group comprise mainly brand fees and wholesale telecommunications services.

Financial receivables, liabilities, finance costs, net and other comprehensive income/loss concerning transactions with the Orange Group relate to loan agreements concluded with Atlas Services Belgium S.A. and agreement with Orange S.A. concerning derivative transactions to hedge exposure to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk related to the above-mentioned loan agreements.

12. Subsequent events

On 11 April 2021, Orange Polska signed a preliminary agreement with APG Group (APG's subsidiary called Acari Investments Holding B.V.), based on which Orange Polska will sell 50% stake in Światłowód Inwestycje Sp. z o.o., a subsidiary of OPL S.A., creating a joint venture which will build fibre infrastructure and offer wholesale access services. Światłowód Inwestycje will become a jointly controlled entity, 50/50% owned by the Group and APG Group. It will be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position as an investment accounted for using the equity method and will cease to be fully consolidated at the moment of sale of 50% stake in Światłowód Inwestycje. Orange Polska will have an option to buy additional c.1% of Światłowód Inwestycje and gain control in years 2027-2029.

The transaction values Światłowód Inwestycje at PLN 2,748 million (debt-free cash-free basis). Orange Polska will sell 50% stake in Światłowód Inwestycje to APG Group for a total consideration of PLN 1,374 million, of which PLN 887 million will be paid on closing (subject to customary adjustments). Payment of the remaining PLN 487 million will occur in years 2022-2026 and will be conditional on the Group delivering on agreed network rollout schedule. The transaction assumes equity contributions for each party of around PLN 300 million to be made in years 2023-2026.

The transaction is conditional upon its approval by relevant competition authorities and upon contribution of the fibre assets by Orange Polska to Światłowód Inwestycje after confirmation by the relevant authorities of the legal basis of the transaction.

2. Statement of compliance and basis of preparation

Basis of preparation

These unaudited Condensed IFRS Quarterly Separate Financial Statements for the 3 months ended 31 March 2021 (the "Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 - Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") and with all accounting standards applicable to interim financial reporting adopted by the European Union, issued and effective as at the time of preparing the Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements (see also Note 3).

These Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Orange Polska S.A. IFRS Separate Financial Statements and the notes thereto ("IFRS Separate Financial Statements") for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements include the income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and selected explanatory notes.

These Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.

Costs that arise unevenly during the year are anticipated or deferred in the quarterly financial statements only if it would also be appropriate to anticipate or defer such costs at the end of the year.

Orange Polska S.A. is the parent company of the Orange Polska Group ("the Group", "OPL Group") and prepares quarterly consolidated financial statements for the 3 months ended 31 March 2021. The Group is a part of Orange Group, based in France.

These Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements are prepared in millions of Polish zloty ("PLN") and were authorised for issuance by the Management Board on 21 April 2021.

Adoption of standards and interpretations in 2021

There were no new standards or interpretations issued from the date when the IFRS Separate Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 were published.

3. Statement of accounting policies

The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of the Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements are materially consistent with those described in Notes 2 and 32 to the audited IFRS Separate Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.

In the second quarter of 2020 the Company changed its accounting policy in respect of the determination of the lease term of cancellable leases. The change resulted from the IFRS Interpretation Committee's decision regarding lease term, issued in December 2019. The change was applied retrospectively and impacted the statement of financial position as at 1 January 2019. The Company assessed the reasonably certain lease terms of cancellable lease contracts to be equal to 5 years for all lease contracts, except for 18 years for road occupancy leases where fixed network infrastructure is placed. This change in accounting policy resulted in the recognition of additional right-of-use assets and additional lease liabilities, mainly in respect of leases of premises and ground for fixed and mobile network infrastructure.

Adoption of changes described above affected the income statement, total comprehensive income and statement of cash flows for the 3 months ended 31 March 2020 as follows:

5. Explanatory comments about the seasonality or cyclicality of interim Company operations

The Company's activities are subject to some seasonality. The fourth quarter is typically a peak sales season with high commercial spending and with increased capital expenditures resulting from investment cycle management applied by the Company. Seasonally high capital expenditures in the fourth quarter are followed by higher payments to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets suppliers in the first quarter of the subsequent year resulting in higher cash used in investing activities.

6. Items affecting assets, liabilities, equity, net income or cash flows that are unusual because of their nature, size or incidence

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic

The situation related to COVID-19 pandemic is dynamic, Poland and other countries experience another wave of COVID-19, some restrictions have been imposed again. The pandemic has significantly impacted the Polish economy. Poland's GDP decreased by 2.7% in 2020 and it is estimated to have fallen by 2.0% in the first quarter of 2021 (year-on-year). At the same time the consensus indicates that GDP in Poland could return to low single digit growth in 2021 although the pace of the recovery is highly uncertain at the moment.

Since the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020, the Management has adopted a number of counteractive measures to mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic on Company's business performance. The results achieved by the Company indicate that the core of the Company's operations remain relatively immune to the impact of the pandemic. Data and voice connectivity has become more essential than ever to the needs

of consumers and businesses. The majority of revenue and profits are derived from subscription-based services, which allows the Company to rely on relatively stable and predictable revenue streams. Despite many restrictions which are in place Company's distribution network remains open.

The Company assessed if there are any impairment indicators of telecom operator Cash Generating Unit and concluded that there are none as at 31 March 2021. Therefore, no impairment test was performed at this date.

In 2021, the Company performed a reassessment of the impact of COVID-19 on the bad debt allowance. As a result, the Company recognised no additional impairment of trade receivables in the 3 months ended 31 March 2021.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the Company, its financial position and performance in next periods depends on many factors which are beyond the control of the Company. These factors include, among others: the length and severity of the pandemic, measures taken by the government to limit the pandemic and to protect society from the effects of the crisis and in result its ultimate impact on the Polish economy. The Company will monitor the COVID-19 situation, its impact on the Polish economy, as well as indicators more specific to the Company.

Other events

As at 31 March 2021, the Company reclassified PLN 364 million of property, plant and equipment to assets held for sale. They represent network assets that will be contributed or leased under a finance lease to Światłowód Inwestycje Sp. z o.o., a subsidiary of Orange Polska S.A. (see also Note 11).

From 2021, as a result of an annual review of estimated useful lives of fixed assets, the Company extended the estimated useful lives for certain items of software which decreased the amortisation expense by PLN 33 million in the 3 months ended 31 March 2021 in comparison to previous year. Amortisation expense in 2021 relating to these assets is expected to be lower by approximately PLN 117 million in comparison to 2020.

The amount of trade payables subject to reverse factoring increased from PLN 106 million as at 31 December 2020 to PLN 181 million as at 31 March 2021. These payables are presented together with the remaining balance of trade payables, as analysis conducted by the Company indicates they have retained their trade nature.

7. Changes in loans from related parties

On 29 January 2021, the Company and Atlas Services Belgium S.A., a subsidiary of Orange S.A., concluded a Loan Agreement for PLN 2,700 million with repayment date in June 2026, which will refinance the Loan Agreement for PLN 2,700 million expiring in June 2021.

In the 3 months ended 31 March 2021, the net cash flows from issuance and repayments of the Revolving Credit Facility from Atlas Services Belgium S.A. amounted to PLN (160) million.

As at 31 March 2021, the total outstanding balance of loans from the related parties amounted to PLN 5,947 million, including accrued interest and arrangement fees. The weighted average effective interest rate on loans from the related parties amounted to 1.22% before swaps and 2.97% after swaps as at 31 March 2021.

In the 3 months ended 31 March 2021, the Company entered into new derivative transactions under the agreement with Orange S.A. hedging interest rate risk related to the Loan Agreement concluded in January 2021 described above. As at 31 March 2021, the total nominal amount of cross currency interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps, outstanding under the agreement with Orange S.A., was EUR 190 million and PLN 7,550 million, respectively, with a total fair value amounting to PLN 45 million.

8. Fair value of financial instruments

The Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured subsequent to their initial recognition at fair value comprise derivative instruments and selected trade receivables arising from sales of mobile handsets in instalments. As at 31 March 2021 and 31 December 2020, the total fair value of derivatives amounted to PLN 79 million and PLN 15 million, respectively, and fair value of selected trade receivables arising from sales of mobile handsets in instalments amounted to PLN 212 million and PLN 211 million, respectively. The fair value of these instruments is determined as described in Notes 13.1 and 22 to the IFRS Separate Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020. Significant inputs to the valuation technique used by the Company to measure the fair value of derivatives and selected trade receivables are classified to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy described in Note 23.1.

The carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments excluding lease liabilities approximates their fair value, except for telecommunications licence payables and a loan from related party based on fixed interest rate for which as at 31 March 2021 the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying amount respectively by PLN 38 million and PLN 35 million (PLN 47 million and PLN 45 million as at 31 December 2020) due to significant change between the original effective interest rates at the date of the initial recognition and current market rates.

9. Changes in major litigation and claims, contingent liabilities and contingent assets since the end of the last annual reporting period

The information hereunder refers to the matters presented in Note 29 to the IFRS Separate Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 or describes major matters that occurred after 31 December 2020.

There were no significant developments in the cases separately disclosed in the Note 29 mentioned above.

Apart from those matters, operational activities of the Company are subject to legal, tax, social and administrative regulations and the Company is a party to a number of legal and tax proceedings and commercial contracts related to its operational activities. Some regulatory decisions can be detrimental to the Company and court verdicts within appeal proceedings against such decisions can have negative consequences for the Company. Also, there are claims including for damages or contractual penalties raised by counterparties to commercial contracts, or claims for other payments resulting from breach of law which may result in cash outflows.

Furthermore, the Company uses fixed assets of other parties in order to provide telecommunications services. The terms of use of these assets are not always formalised and as such, the Company is subject to claims and might be subject to future claims in this respect, which will probably result in cash outflows in the future. The amount of the potential obligations or future commitments cannot yet be measured with sufficient reliability due to legal complexities involved.

The Company monitors the risks on a regular basis and the Management Board believes that adequate provisions have been recorded for known and quantifiable risks. Information regarding the range of potential outcomes has not been separately disclosed as, in the opinion of the Company's Management, such disclosure could prejudice the outcome of the pending cases.
