The total of 330,000 (in words: three hundred and thirty thousand) ordinary bearer shares of the Company, with a par value of PLN 1 (in words: one zloty) per share, registered in the securities depository maintained by the KDPW under the ISIN code: PLOPNPL00013 (the “Treasury Shares”) will be acquired in connection with the implementation of the Buy-back.
The Treasury Shares will be purchased at a uniform price of PLN 45.00 (in words: forty-five zlotys 00/100) per Treasury Share, i.e. for the total price of PLN 14,850,000 (in words: fourteen million eight hundred and fifty thousand zlotys). The total nominal value of the Treasury Shares is PLN 330,000 (in words: three hundred and thirty thousand zlotys).
The Treasury Shares to be acquired as a result of the settlement of the Buy-back represent 2.37% of the Company's share capital and 2.37% of the total number of votes at the General Meeting of the Company. Pursuant to Article 364 § 2 of the Commercial Companies Code, the Company will not exercise the participation rights attached to the Treasury Shares, with the exception of the right to dispose of them or perform actions aimed at preserving such rights.
The conclusion and settlement of the acquisition of the Treasury Shares is scheduled on 22 June 2023. The transaction of the purchase of the Treasury Shares will be concluded outside the organised system of trading in financial instruments, through Trigon Dom Maklerski S.A., with its registered office in Kraków.
As part of the Buy-back, tenders were submitted to sell the total of 540,666 (in words: five hundred and forty thousand six hundred and sixty-six) shares of the Company. As the total number of shares in the Company submitted by shareholders for sale under the Buy-back exceeded the total number of shares the Company intended to purchase, the Company reduced the tenders to sell the Company shares on a pro rata basis, using the reduction rules described in the invitation to tender the Company's shares for sale under the Buy-back. The average reduction rate of the tenders submitted was 38.96%.
The Company currently holds 170,220 treasury shares acquired as part of the share buy-back, which the Company announced in current report No. 52/2022 of 19 August 2022.
