The Management Board announces that the Shareholder may request that the list of the Shareholders be sent to them by electronic mail, free of charge. The Shareholder requesting that the list of the Shareholders be sent to them should specify an electronic mail address to which the list should be sent. Such a request may be sent by electronic mail to the Company's e-mail address: wza@gkpge.pl.

The Management Board announces that the Shareholder has the right to participate in the General Meeting and exercise the voting right in person or by proxy. The Shareholder's proxy exercises all rights of the Shareholders unless the text of the proxy stipulates otherwise. The proxy may grant further proxies unless the content of the proxy stipulates otherwise. One proxy may represent more than one Shareholder. In such case, the proxy may vote differently with respect to shares held by each Shareholder. If the Shareholder holds shares registered in more than one securities account, they may appoint a proxy to exercise the rights related to shares registered in each such account.

A proxy to participate in the General Meeting and exercise the voting right should be drawn up in writing or an electronic format.

In order to identify the Shareholder granting a proxy and the Proxy representing such a Shareholder,

a document granting the proxy should be accompanied by the following:

a) in the case of the Shareholder who is a natural person - a copy of their identity card, pages from a passport allowing identification or any other official document certifying the Shareholder's identity;

b) in the case of the Shareholder who is not a natural person - a copy of a current extract from a proper register or any other document certifying the existence of the Shareholder or the right of its representative or representatives to represent the Shareholder, together with copies of an identity card, pages from a passport allowing identification or any other official document certifying the identity of such a representative or representatives authorized to represent the Shareholder;

c) in the case of the Proxy who is a natural person - a copy of their identity card, pages from a passport allowing identification or any other official document certifying the Proxy's identity;

d) in the case of the Proxy who is not a natural person - a copy of a current extract from a proper register or any other document certifying the existence of the Proxy or the right of its representative or representatives to represent the Proxy, together with copies of an identity card, pages from a passport allowing identification or any other official document certifying the identity of such a representative or representatives authorized to represent the Proxy.

In the case of foreign entities in whose countries of registration relevant registers are not kept, instead of a copy of a current extract from a register referred to in letters ‎b) and d) above, a copy of a document certifying the existence of the given entity or the right of its representative or representatives to represent the entity should be presented.

In the event of doubts concerning the authenticity of the copies of the documents referred to above, the Management Board reserves the right to demand before the beginning of the General Meeting the presentation of the originals of the said documents or their copies certified by a notary public, legal counsel or any other entity authorized to certify true copies of documents. If such documents are not presented, a Proxy of the Shareholder may be not allowed to participate in the General Meeting.

All documents referred to above which are drawn up in a foreign language should be accompanied by a proper certified translation into the Polish language drawn up by a sworn translator.

If a proxy to participate in the General Meeting and exercise the voting right granted by the Shareholder is a conditional proxy, it should be accompanied by a documentary evidence that the particular condition has been fulfilled.

A proxy granted in an electronic format needs not to be accompanied by a secure electronic signature verified by means of a valid qualified certificate. The Company should be notified of the fact of granting a proxy in an electronic format using the electronic means of communication. Such notification must be sent by electronic mail to the Company's e-mail address: wza@gkpge.pl. The notification should be accompanied by a scanned copy of the granted proxy and scanned copies of the documents referred to in letters a), b), c) and d) above. The notification should include also an electronic mail address at which the Company may contact the Shareholder and the Proxy. The Management Board shall have the right to verify submitted notifications and to take actions aiming at the identification of the Shareholder and the Proxy and the confirmation of their authorization. The verification may consist, in particular, in asking verification questions of the Shareholder or the Proxy by telephone or electronic mail. The above principles will apply to a change in or revocation of the granted proxy. Notifications which do not meet the requirements referred to above will not result in any legal consequences for the Company. The Company will not be liable for any errors in the proxy forms and actions of people using proxies. At the request of the Company or a person (persons) appointed by the Company to register the Shareholders, a Proxy appearing in the General Meeting is obliged to present the documents attached to the notification referred to above.

In the case of foreign entities in whose countries of registration relevant registers are not kept, instead of a scanned copy of a current extract from a register, a scanned copy of a document certifying the existence of the given entity or the right of its representative or representatives to represent the entity should be presented.

In the event of doubts concerning the authenticity of the documents referred to above, the Management Board reserves the right to demand before the beginning of the General Meeting the presentation of the originals of the said documents or their copies certified by a notary public, legal counsel or any other entity authorized to certify true copies of documents. If such documents are not presented, a Proxy of the Shareholder may be not allowed to participate in the General Meeting.

All documents referred to above which are drawn up in a foreign language should be accompanied by a proper certified translation into the Polish language drawn up by a sworn translator.

The Management announces also that if the Shareholder grants a proxy together with a voting instruction, the Company will not verify if Proxies exercise the voting rights in accordance with the instructions received from the Shareholders. Therefore, a voting instruction should be given to the Proxy only.
