Poland) • Auctions on specific platforms – mainly German EEX and British ICE. Poland plans to launch its own platform. So far using EEX. • Free emission allowances granted until 2013. From 2013 power generators have to cover full emission with allowances bought – excluding Poland and other new member states (free allowances granted on the basis of modernising the power sector). • These exceptions are known as derogations. The size of derogations for particular installations is determined and proposed by National Implementation Measures. • Companies obliged to redeem allowances, respectively to their emissions, by 30 April of the following year.

The ratings are constrained by the fairly low share of the regulated network business in PGE's EBITDA, limited diversification of generation sources, high average carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per MWh and Fitch's expectations of declining margins in the company's core business of conventional generation. We project that large capex plans will increase funds from operations (FFO) adjusted net leverage to about to 2x in 2017 and close to 3x in 2020 from close to zero net leverage at end-March 2015. We view net leverage of 3x as the maximum level for the ratings. …” RATING SENSITIVITIES Positive: Future developments that could, individually or collectively, lead to positive rating actions include: - PGE currently has large financial headroom in its ratings, although this is likely to gradually decrease by 2017 due to rising debt. A quicker than expected recovery of EBITDA from 2016 could translate into better projected credit metrics, assuming the capex plan is unchanged or lowered. Projected FFO adjusted net leverage below 2x on a sustained basis, supported by management's more conservative leverage target, could be positive for the ratings. - The ratings could be positively affected by a more diversified fuel generation mix and lower CO2 emissions per MWh, which together with planned efficiency improvements, would result in a stronger business profile. Negative: Future developments that may, individually or collectively lead to negative action include: - Deterioration of credit ratios, including FFO adjusted net leverage above 3x and FFO fixed charge cover below 5x on a sustained basis. - Acquisitions of stakes in coal mines or other form of support for state-owned mining companies under financial pressure, such as Kompania Węglowa - leading to net leverage above 3x or substantially worsening PGE's business profile could be negative for PGE's ratings. 83 Key rating drivers – Baa1 stable by Moody’s „…PGE's rating assessment reflects the company's strong position as a dominant generator of electricity in Poland, and as an integrated energy group. The company benefits from a low cost lignite-fueled generation fleet. However, these positives are offset by the exposure to power markets in the weak price environment and high exposure to carbon, albeit reduced due to the free carbon dioxide emission allowances. The assigned rating further takes into account an expected increase in leverage due to negative free cash flows arising from a significant capital expenditure programme…” „WHAT COULD CHANGE THE RATING UP/DOWN Upward rating pressure is unlikely in the short to medium term given the challenges that PGE faces in terms of carrying out its capital investment programme and the anticipated decline in its credit metrics. Over the medium to long term, we would consider an upgrade in the event of improved clarity around the future shape of the energy market in Poland coupled with a successful implementation of the investment projects and a strong financial profile of the group. Negative pressure on PGE's rating would develop if (1) power prices and spreads declined further so that rating guidance was not met; (2) the group's FFO interest coverage ratio were to fall below 5.0x, FFO/net debt were to decline below 30% on a sustainable basis; (3) there was a material adverse change in the regulatory framework in Poland; or (4) the group were to embark on the nuclear investment without adequate financial and contractual risk protections. In addition, a deterioration in the credit quality of the Government of Poland and/or reduction in the support assumptions currently incorporated into our assessment would likely put a negative pressure on PGE's ratings.” 84 • Impairments << Back to table of contents 85 External indicators behind impairment tests.

Retail and Wholesale to be presented as a single business line – Supply (Previously, presented as two separate segments) 2. Inclusion of Enesta into Supply segment (previously reported as Other), 3. Inclusion of support-entities into Conventional Gen. segmemt (previously reported as Other). 4. Inclusion of 3 hydroplants into Renewables segment (previously reported as Supply)*** Treats impairments as an accelerated depreciation (impairments does not impact EBITDA figure). Concerns stripping costs, i.e. cost related to the removal of the overburden* (details at the next page) Rationale To diminish volatility of financial results caused by actuarial changes. 1. To remove the impact of the internal agreements from the reported figures (our retail and wholesale business are linked with transfer prices, thus segments should be evaluated mutually). 2, 3, 4. To present results in a more logic order. To facilitate comparability with other companies (otherwise distorted by significant impariment) To correct depreciation figures and to avoid double counting Magnitude Switch into the new accounting method resulted in FY14 consolidated EBITDA higher by PLN 458m, Ceteris Paribus. Reported FY14 net profit was greater by PLN 341m compared to the old method.**** 1. In Q1'15 Supply segment had PLN 2 billion lower Revenues and COGS than simple sum of wholesale + retail due to intersectional eliminations. 2. Insignificant: EBIT of Supply segment increased by low-single digit (%) in Q1’15 3. Insignificant: lower than 1% impact on Con.Gen. Q1'15 EBIT 4. Hydroplants have mid-teens % contribution to Q1’15 EBIT of Renewables segment. Under the old accounting policy, impairments would result in negative EBITDA of PLN -4.5 bn in H1'15 ***** Without the respective eliminations depreciation would be overstated by c. 7% in 9M'15 * overburden – the material overlying a lignite deposit (most commonly the rock, soil and ecosystem), *** Segments rearrangement is outlined at page 95 of herein Big Book **** For more information please see pages 50-53 of FY14 presentation, ** for more information please see: ***** Impairments are summarized at pages 88-89 of herein Big Book www.gkpge.pl/media/pdf/PGE_Land_reclamation_accounting_20150129.pdf 92 Accounting topics which emerged in 2015: IFRIC 20 • The acronym IFRIC stands for International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee. IFRIC 20 provides the guideline for the surface mines, regarding so called stripping costs. These cost are related to the removal of the overburden (i.e. mine waste materials), before lignite deposits can be accessed. • This preparatory stage will yield economic benefit in future periods, therefore stripping costs are being capitalized. This means that fraction of current period’s expenses are reflected in the balance sheet and will be recognized in future periods income statements through the depreciation line. • In Q3’15 the capitalized stripping costs amounted to PLN 187 million vs. PLN 124 million in Q3’14. Stripping costs advanced by 51% yoy, because of heavier preparation works at the relatively new field, Szczerców, (while older deposit, Bełchatów is coming to its lifetime). • The switch towards the new field (Szczerców) increased the importance of IFRIC 20, which lead us to the discovery of slight inconsistance within the previously used accounting method (we amended the method accordingly, effective Q3’15). • D&A from cost by kind section needs to be adjusted for EBITDA calculations – as summarized in the table below: [PLN million, consolidated] 9M'15 6M'15 Q3'15 1. Total depreciation of tangible assests (ex. impairments) 2,235 1,571 664 13 6 7 139 102 37 2,083 1,463 620 7% 7% 7% 2. Change in stock position 3. Cost of manufacturing products for the entity's own requirements 4. Depereciation of tangible assets involved in period’s fin. result (1-2-3) Magnitude of depreciation adjustment (2+3)/4 • To summarize: A fraction of costs by kind (incl. Depreciation) is being incurred to benefit future periods and therefore is being capitalized. The machinery, say excavator, uses up, but its extinguishing value turnes into the new asset (i.e. opencast field prepared for lignite extraction). That is why downward adjustment of c. 7% was required at the D&A level. 93 Accounting topics which emerged in 2015: segments rearranged Conventional Generation Conventional Generation Renewables Renewables Distribution Distribution Wholesale Supply Supply 3 hydro plants Other Other PGE GiEK supporting entities Enesta S.A. 94 Provision for future liquidation costs - changes in reclamation accounting PGE maintains and adjust periodically Provision for rehabilitation and liquidation of property, plant and equipment PLN 2,829m at 9M’15 eop including: 9% 91% Other: Provision for rehabilitation of post-exploitation mining properties PLN 2,576m at 9M’15 eop A. Provision for rehabilitation of ash storages B. Provisions for rehabilitation of post-constructions grounds of wind farms C. Provision for liquidation of tangible assets ∑= PLN 253m at 9M’15 eop KEY FACTS: • Reclamation costs will be incurred in the years 2023 – 2064 (Bełchatów open cast mine) and in years 2045-2065 (Turów open cast mine). • According to the Geological and Mining Law, companies involved in the open cast mining are required to maintain fund for liquidation of mining facility. A fund must amount not less than 10% of the exploitation fee p.a. A Fund has to be paid up within one month after the end of financial year. The above provision includes also the value of the fund. • Provision was highly sensitive to various assumptions; particularly to discount rates (based on government bond yields). • In order to moderate the influence of discount rates changes on the value of provisions and to smooth out the period-to-period volatility of financial results caused by volatility of yields, PGE changed land reclamation accounting policy, effective Q4’14 and thereafter. • The rules and the impact estimated of new accounting policy were disclosed on January 29, 2015* • The accounting change in brief: the present value of the future overburden** reclamation costs get capitalized and would be subsequently amortized over the lifespan of the mine, hence, the new tangible asset was recognized in books. Changes in reclamation provision caused, inter alia, by changes in yields are now mirrored in the value of tangible assets, bypassing the net profit (∆ Liabilities = ∆ Assets). • Despite the accounting change, yields volatility still impacts the value of provision and Group’s P&L, yet the impact is roughly 4 times milder. *Appendix to the current report; http://www.gkpge.pl/media/pdf/PGE_Land_reclamation_accounting_20150129.pdf ** Overburden – the material overlying a lignite deposit (i.e. rock, soil, ecosystem) 95 Tax Capital Group (TCG) 25-Y forward • The agreement signed on September 18, 2014 is effective January 1, 2015 for the next 25 years Composition • Comprises 31 companies from PGE Group and includes the parent company and all the key subsidiaries (except PGE EJ 1 and PGE Sweden). Goal Taxed as a single entity • Goal: optimisation of tax settlements • The Polish Corporate Income Tax Act treats tax groups as separate income tax payers. Companies within TCG are not treated any longer as separate entities for, but TCG is treated as one whole entity instead. TCG tax base is the group’s aggregate income. CIT only • The above applies only to purposes of corporate income tax (CIT) and should not be equated with a separate legal entity. Furthermore, TCG does not apply to other taxes (e.g. TCG members remain separate payers of VAT). Requirements • The companies forming a TCG are obligated to meet a number of requirements – e.g. the parent company’s share of at least 95%, etc. The violation of these requirements will result in dissolution of the tax capital group and the loss of status of the taxpayer. 96 • Other issues << Back to table of contents 97 New corporate governance model of PGE Capital Group PGE Group Code • Approved by the Management Board on July 3, 2014; • Fundamental document defining a new corporate governance model; • Unifies and simplifies the structure of the Group.
