5. Payment to members of the Supervisory Board

Resolution proposal:

5.1.

  1. Each member of the Supervisory Board shall receive the gross meeting fee of EUR 275 for their participation at the session. The Supervisory Board members shall receive a meeting fee of 80% of the amount of the meeting fee for their participation at the Supervisory Board. The correspondence session meeting fee equals 80% of the usual meeting fee. Each Supervisory Board member is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at sessions, eligible in each financial year for the payment of meeting fees, until the total amount of the meeting fees reaches 50% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member on an annual level. Each Supervisory Board member who is also a member of a committee or committees of the Supervisory Board is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at the Supervisory Board and committee sessions, eligible in each financial year for the payment of meeting fees, until the total amount of the meeting fees from their participation at the Supervisory Board and committee sessions reaches 75% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member on an annual level.

  1. In addition to the meeting fees, the Supervisory Board members shall also receive the basic payment for performing the respective function in the gross annual amount of EUR 15,000 for each member. The chair of the Supervisory Board is also eligible to receive 50% of the basic payment for performing the function of Supervisory Board member, while the vice-chair/deputy chair of the Supervisory Board is eligible to receive 10% of the basic payment for performing the Supervisory Board member function.

The Supervisory Board committee members shall receive extra payment for performing their respective functions, which is 25% of the basic payment for performing the function of Supervisory Board member. The chair of the committee is also eligible to receive 37.5% of the basic payment for performing the respective function of Supervisory Board member. Each Supervisory Board committee member is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at committees, either as a member or chair, eligible in each financial year for the payment of extra fees for the performance of their function, until the total amount of the extra payments reaches 50% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member on an annual level. If the mandate of each Supervisory Board member is shorter than the financial year, then each Supervisory Board committee member is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at committees, either as a member or chair, eligible in each financial year for the payment of extra fees for the performance of their function, until the total amount of the extra payments reaches 50% of the basic payment for the duration of the mandate in the respective financial year.

External Supervisory Board committee members are eligible to receive meeting fees like the other committee members, and the basic payment for the performance of the function in the amount of 30% of the annual basic payment for each Supervisory Board member (without extra payment for committee work).

  1. In addition to the above, the Supervisory Board members are also eligible to receive extra payments for special tasks. Special tasks are tasks which are highly complex and take an unusually long time to be carried out, generally at least one month. The Supervisory Board authorises itself to decide on the assignment of special tasks to each Supervisory Board member at their given consent, on the duration of the special tasks and on the extra payment for special tasks, in line with this resolution of the general assembly. The Supervisory Board authorises itself to decide on the extra payments for special tasks of the Supervisory Board members due to objective circumstances of the company. Extra payments for special tasks are allowed only for the time when they are actually carried out, the decision of which can exceptionally be adopted by the Supervisory Board retrospectively (especially in the case of special tasks due to the objective circumstances of the company), but no earlier than the previous financial year. Extra payments for special tasks may, in total, amount to a maximum of 50% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member in each financial year for every Supervisory Board member (regardless of the number of special tasks). The extra payment for each special task is determined by taking into account the complexity of the task and the related increased workload and responsibility. Extra payments are always appropriately and proportionally calculated for the period of their actual performance.

    1. Supervisory Board members receive the basic payment for performing their function, and the extra payment for special tasks, in proportional monthly payments to which they are eligible, as long as they perform the function and/or special task. The monthly payment equals 1/12 of the above annual amounts. Extra payments for special tasks may, based on the circumstances, also be paid in a one-off total eligible amount following the performance of the special task.
    1. The restriction of the total amount of meeting fees or extra payments to each Supervisory Board member does not affect their obligation to actively participate at all sessions of the Supervisory Board and committees of which they are a member, or their statutory responsibility.
  • _6. The Supervisory Board members can be reimbursed for travel and accommodation costs that incur in connection with their work in the Supervisory Board, up to the amount defined in the regulations that govern the reimbursement of costs of work and other income that is not included in the taxable amount (provisions that are applicable for travel and accommodation on missions). The amount to which a member of the Supervisory Board is entitled, based on the cited regulation, is grossed-up, thus the net payment represents the reimbursement of the actual travel costs. Mileage is determined by considering the distance between places, calculated on the public web page of AMZS. Accommodation costs may only be reimbursed if the distance from the permanent or temporary residence of the Supervisory Board member or Supervisory Board committee member to the place of work is at least 100 kilometres, if the member was not able to return because there was no public transport option at the time, or due to other objective reasons.
    1. This resolution enters into force on the day of its adoption at the general assembly. Resolution no. 5.1, as adopted by the general assembly on 18 April 2019, is thus repealed.

Resolution under point 1 is proposed by the Management Board, resolutions under points 2 and 4 are proposed by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board, resolution under point 5 is proposed by Supervisory Board.

2.3.

The General Meeting has granted approval of the performance of duties by the Supervisory Board in the financial year 2020.

Substantiation:

Pursuant to Article 294 of the Companies Act (ZGD-1), at the same time as deciding on the use of the profit for appropriation, the General Meeting shall also decide on the granting of approval of the performance of duties by the Management Board and the Supervisory Board members. According to the above-mentioned Act, the debate on the granting of approval shall be linked to the debate on the use of the profit for appropriation. Therefore, the Management Board shall submit to the General Meeting the Annual Report and the report of the Supervisory Board on the results of verification of the Annual Report.

Further, the above-mentioned Article of the Companies Act stipulates that at the General Meeting deciding on the use of the profit for appropriation, the Management Board shall inform the shareholders of the remuneration received by the members of the management and supervisory bodies for their work in the company and subsidiary companies in the previous financial year. This information is disclosed in the Annual Report.

Taking into account the above-mentioned, the General Meeting will discuss and present, in the scope of the same agenda item and before discussing and deciding on the use of the profit for appropriation

and on the granting of approval, the Annual Report for 2020 and the Supervisory Board's report on their approval of the Annual Report for 2020.

The Management Board will also inform the General Meeting on the remuneration received by the members of the management and supervisory bodies for their work in the company in the financial year 2020. As the above-mentioned subjects are related, it is reasonable to discuss them at the same time.

The Resolution Proposal regarding the use of the profit for appropriation and dividend payments is based on the achieved results, the company's development plan, as well as on the Supervisory Board's and Management Board's assessment on the appropriateness of such use. In the company's Financial Calendar, a day in the first half of August is marked each year as the dividend payout day. This year, the dividend payout day is 60 August 2021. The deadline for payment of -dividends is longer than in the case of the majority of shareholder companies listed in the Ljubljana Stock Exchange (prime market shares), but notwithstanding this, the Company is among the first to pay out dividends because it is among the first to hold its annual general meetings.

By the Resolution Proposal regarding the granting of approval, it is proposed to the General Meeting to confirm and approve the work of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board in the financial year 2020. Pursuant to the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Code for Public Limited Companies, this proposal shall be voted on separately for the Management Board and the Supervisory Board.

Accordingly, the Management Board prepared a written report on the activities undertaken, which is presented below.

REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT BOARD OF PETROL D.D., LJUBLJANA ON STEPS TAKEN IN CONNECTION WITH THE SHAREHOLDER REPORT ON SPECIAL PERFORMANCE AUDIT OF PETROL D.D., LJUBLJANA, AS OF 15 OCTOBER 2020

Based on the resolution no. 2.3. of the General Meeting of 28 December 2020, ordering the Management Board to carry out, in line with its mandate, the following activities in connection with the findings of the Shareholder report on special performance audit of Petrol, d.d., dated 15 October 2020, drawn up by a special auditor - BDO Revizija d.o.o., up to the date of drawing up of this Report the Management Board of Petrol d.d., Ljubljana carried out the following activities:

  • On 22 January 2021 the Company entered with the Erjavec in partnerji, o.p., d.o.o. Law firm (hereinafter also: the Contractor) into a Business Cooperation Agreement for the purpose of execution of the resolution of the Management Board of Petrol d.d., Ljubljana. With this Agreement, the Contractor undertook to draw up a special report, containing in particular (i) findings on whether certain transactions raised in the Special Audit Report of 15 October 2020 incurred legally recognised damage to Petrol d.d., Ljubljana; and (ii) an assessment of the effectiveness or likelihood of success in compensation and other proceedings.
  • To establish the amount of possible damage suffered, the Contractor also included financial experts in its work, namely BDO Svetovanje d.o.o. and CSA Consulting d.o.o, as well as prof. dr. Peter Podgorelec as an external legal professional.
  • The Contractor regularly reported on hits work and progress to the Management Board. These interim reports of the Contractor show that the Contractor, together with its subcontractors, reviewed the Special Audit Report dated 15 October 2020 and all the documentation uploaded in the VDR. Following evaluation of the documentation, it started with processing of individual cases. It forwarded numerous additional questions to the departments of Petrol d.d., Ljubljana, requesting additional documentation. The Contractor also carried out several direct talks with the representatives of Petrol's departments.

Given that by the date of drawing up of this report, the findings, conclusions and assessments of the Contractor on the existence of damage and the likelihood of success in the court proceedings are not yet final, the Management Board will, at a General Meeting held on 22 April 2021, submit a report on all activities carried out until the day of the General Meeting in accordance with the resolution of the General Meeting of 28 December 2020.

Working papers relating to Item 5 of the Agenda

5. Payment to members of the Supervisory Board

Resolution proposal:

5.1.

    1. Each member of the Supervisory Board shall receive the gross meeting fee of EUR 275 for their participation at the session. The Supervisory Board members shall receive a meeting fee of 80% of the amount of the meeting fee for their participation at the session of the Supervisory Board. The
  • correspondence session meeting fee equals 80% of the usual meeting fee. Each Supervisory Board member is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at sessions, eligible in each financial year for the payment of meeting fees, until the total amount of the meeting fees reaches 50% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member on an annual level. Each Supervisory Board member who is also a member of a committees of the Supervisory Board is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at the Supervisory Board and committee sessions, eligible in each financial year for the payment of meeting fees, until the total amount of the meeting fees from their participation at the Supervisory Board and committee sessions reaches 75% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member on an annual level.
    1. In addition to the meeting fees, the Supervisory Board members shall also receive the basic payment for performing the respective function in the gross annual amount of EUR 15,000 for each member. The chair of the Supervisory Board is also eligible to receive 50% of the basic payment for performing the function of Supervisory Board member, while the vice-chair/deputy chair of the Supervisory Board is eligible to receive 10% of the basic payment for performing the Supervisory Board member function.

The Supervisory Board committee members shall receive extra payment for performing their respective functions, which is 25% of the basic payment for performing the function of Supervisory Board member. The chair of the committee is also eligible to receive 37.5% of the basic payment for performing the respective function of Supervisory Board member. Each Supervisory Board committee member is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at committees, either as a member or chair, eligible in each financial year for the payment of extra fees for the performance of their function, until the total amount of the extra payments reaches 50% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member on annual level. If the mandate of each Supervisory Board member is shorter than the financial year, then each Supervisory Board committee member is, regardless of the above and regardless of the frequency of participations at committees, either as a member or chair, eligible in each financial year for the payment of extra fees for the performance of their function, until the total amount of the extra payments reaches 50% of the basic payment for the mandate in the respective financial year.

External Supervisory Board committee members are eligible to receive meeting fees like the other committee members, and the basic payment for the performance of the function in the amount of 30% of the annual basic payment for each Supervisory Board member (without extra payment for committee work).

    1. In addition to the above, the Supervisory Board members are also eligible to receive extra payments for special tasks. Special tasks are tasks which are highly complex and take an unusually long time to be carried out, generally at least one month. The Supervisory Board authorises itself to decide on the assignment of special tasks to each Supervisory Board member at their given consent, on the duration of the special tasks and on the extra payment for special tasks, in line with this resolution of the general assembly. The Supervisory Board authorises itself to decide on the extra payments for special tasks of the Supervisory Board members due to objective circumstances of the company. Extra payments for special tasks are allowed only for the time when they are actually carried out, the decision of which can exceptionally be adopted by the Supervisory Board retrospectively in the case of special tasks due to the objective circumstances of the company), but no earlier than the previous financial year. Extra
  • payments for special tasks may, in total, amount to a maximum of 50% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member in each financial year for every Supervisory Board member (regardless of the number of special tasks). The extra payment for each special task is determined by taking into account the complexity of the task and the related increased workload and responsibility. Extra payments are always appropriately and proportionally calculated for the period of their actual performance.
    1. Supervisory Board members receive the basic payment for performing their function, and the extra payment for special tasks, in proportional monthly payments to which they are eligible, as long as they perform the function and/or special task. The monthly payment equals 1/12 of the above annual amounts. Extra payments for special tasks may, based on the circumstances, also be paid in a one-off total eligible amount following the performance of the special task.
    1. The restriction of the total amount of meeting fees or extra payments to each Supervisory Board member does not affect their obligation to actively participate at all sessions of the Supervisory Board and committees of which they are a member, or their statutory responsibility.
    1. The Supervisory Board members can be reimbursed for travel and accommodation costs that incur in connection with their work in the Supervisory Board, up to the amount defined in the regulations that govern the reimbursement of costs of work and other income that is not included in the taxable amount (provisions that are applicable for travel and accommodation on missions). The amount to which a member of the Supervisory Board is entitled, based on the cited regulation, is grossed-up, thus the net payment represents the reimbursement of the actual travel costs. Mileage is determined by considering the distance between places, calculated on the public web page of AMZS. Accommodation costs may only be reimbursed if the distance from the permanent or temporary residence of the Supervisory Board member or Supervisory Board committee member to the place of work is at least 100 kilometres, if the member was not able to return because there was no public transport option at the time, or due to other objective reasons.
  • 7 This resolution enters into force on the day of its adoption at the general assembly. Resolution no. 5.1, as adopted by the general assembly on 18 April 2019, is thus repealed.

Substantiation:

Considering the existing provisions on payments to Supervisory Board members, the proposal does not change the amounts of meeting fees, but it does increase the basic payment for the performance of the function, whereby the maximum annual payments to each member are restricted. The Supervisory Board has found that the proposed basic payment amount for the function of Supervisory Board member and committee member of the company Petrol d.d., Ljubljana, is in line with comparable payments for the same functions in prosperous major companies, whose securities are traded on an organised market. The resolution also comprehensively governs payments to external committee members, and the payment of costs that may be incurred by the Supervisory Board members. By adopting this resolution, the topic will be regulated in a single location.

Based on the issued authorisation of the general assembly, the Supervisory Board may generally decide on advanced extra payments for special tasks, when it decides to carry out a special task. As an exception, mainly in the event of unforeseen circumstances that justify the payment of the extra fees for special tasks due to objective circumstances of the Supervisory Board may also decide on the extra payment retrospectively, but no earlier than the previous financial year. Special diligence and the assessment of merits, on the basis of the objective circumstances, shall be considered in the Supervisory Board's decision on extra payments on the basis of the authorisation of the general assembly, as well as the obligation to accurately report on the special tasks and extra payments to the general assembly of the company, generally in the framework of annual reports or disclosures of the income of the supervisory body's members. When deciding on extra payments for special tasks, the period for the extra payment, based on the time of the performance of such tasks, must be determined in addition to its amount (which is determined as a percentage of the basic payment for the performance of the function). If the general assembly authorised the Supervisory Board to decide on the extra payments for special tasks, then it may also decide itself on the extra payment, especially in the event of unforeseen circumstances that the Supervisory Board did not observe in their decision on the extra payments.

Extra payments for special tasks may, in total, amount to a maximum of 50% of the basic payment for the function of Supervisory Board member in each calendar year for every Supervisory Board member (regardless of the number of special tasks and regardless of the body deciding on such matters - the general assembly directly or the Supervisory Board on the basis of the authorisation of the general assembly). The extra payment for each special task is determined by taking into account the complexity of the task and the related increased workload and responsibility. Extra payments are always appropriately and proportionally calculated for the period of their actual active performance.
