The resolution shall enter into force on the date of its adoption."Justification:Taking into account legal limitations on the lack of the possibility of paying out the dividend by the Company for the last two years, the Fund is of the opinion that the Company should redistribute financial resources to the shareholders in the form of share buyback program. This Fund's resolution is argued by the Company's strong balance position as well as stable cash flow from operating activities in the previous years. Draft resolutions proposed by PTE PZU concerning points 11, 15, 16 i 17 of the agenda, including justification"Resolution no. [...]Acting pursuant to the provisions of article 396 § 5 and in relation to article 348 of the Commercial Companies Code the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Agora SA hereby resolves as follows: a) PLN 76,406,079 (say: seventy six million four hundred six thousand seventy nine zlotys) of supplementary capital of the Company shall be divided between shareholders, this means PLN 1.5 (say: one zloty fifty groszy) for 1 (say: one) share of the Company ("Dividend from the accumulated profit from the previous years");b) The Dividend from the accumulated profit from the previous years shall be available to the shareholders who held shares on the 24th of June, 2014;c) The date of dividend payout shall be on ________, 2014.""Resolution no. [...]Acting pursuant to the provisions of article 430 § 1 and § 5 of the Commercial Companies Code the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Agora SA hereby resolves:a) to change change the Statute of the Company in the way that § 18 point 1 of the Statute reads from now on: "1. Supervisory Board consists of no less than five and no more than six members, appointed in the manner defined in § 20 and § 21, including the chairman. The number of members of the Supervisory Board is established by the General Meeting of Shareholders."b) Supervisory Board is hereby granted the right to determine unified text of the changed Statute.c) The Management Board of the Company is hereby obliged to notify immediately the National Court Register about the changes to the Company's Statute in order to register the changes." "Resolution no. [...]1. Annual General Meeting of Shareholders sets the number of members of Supervisory Board for six people.2. The resolution enters into force on the next day after the registration of resolution no. [ ] of this General Meeting of Shareholders in relation to the change of § 18 point 1 of the Statute of the Company.""Resolution no. [...]1. Annual General Meeting of Shareholders appoints to the Supervisory Board Mr./Mrs _____________.2. The resolution enters into force on the next day after registration of resolution no. [ ] of this General Meeting of Shareholders in relation to the change of § 18 point 1 of the Statute of the Company."Justification: According to PTE PZU opinion, the current situation of the Company, as well as the capital accumulated in the form of accumulated profit from previous years allows payment of PLN 1.5 per share of dividend to the shareholders. PTE PZU is of the opinion that there are no legal grounds not to pay dividend from accumulated profit from the previous years to the shareholders just because the Company noted net loss in the previous financial year . Even though the Company noted net loss in the previous financial year, it still has dividend surplus accumulated in equity which can be intended for payment of dividend other than dividing profit from the previous financial year, and still being within the limit defined by article 348 § 1 of the Commercial Companies Code. The draft resolution does not limit the development possibilities of the Company, at the same time changing the market perception of the Company as a dividend company.PTE PZU is of the opinion that the proposed change in the Statute of the Company involving the change in the number of Supervisory Board members (from 5 to 6 members) may result in strenghtening of the Supervisory Board's competence and positively influence the value of the Company. PTE PZU intends to submit the candidacy for the Supervisory Board member whose professional experience will ensure the right fulfillment of duties of an independent Board member before the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
