The series L shares were issued due to the exercise of stock options by two persons who hold managerial positions in the structure of the Company (but not Management Board members), who have constant access to inside information and by 4 persons whose employment relations with the Company expired before the acquisition of the abovementioned series L shares.

These stock options were granted under the performance stock option plan adopted by Netia’s Supervisory Board on 25 February 2011 (see Netia’s current report No. 10/2011 issued on 25 February 2011), as amended (the ‘Plan’). By resolution No 232/15 dated 16 April 2015, the Management Board of the NDS marked the series L shares with the code PLNETIA00014.

Netia’s issued and outstanding share capital, following this issuance is PLN 348,099,025 and represents 348,099,025 shares, PLN 1 per value per share, each share giving the right to one vote at Netia’s general meeting of shareholders (a total of 348,099,025 votes).

The series L shares were issued due to the exercise of rights attached to 10.631 series 1 registered subscription warrants (‘Series 1 Warrants’) authorising their holders to subscribe for series L shares prior to the Company’s shareholders. In connection with the exercise of rights from the Series 1 Warrants, those warrants expired.
