Proposal /5/ to point 6 of the agenda

Resolution Nr ......./2007 of the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. with its registered head office in Lubin dated 18 October 2007 regarding: annulment of Resolution nr 31/2005 dated 15 June 2005 regarding settlement of the effects of a hyperinflationary revaluation of share capital to be presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and International Accounting Standards (IFRS/IAS) 

Acting under art. 398 of the Commercial Partnerships and Companies Code and under § 23 sec. 1 and 2 of the Statutes of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., in consideration of the request of the Management Board, which was positively reviewed by the Supervisory Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., the General Shareholders’ Meeting resolves the following:

I. In relation to Resolution nr 26/2006 of the General Shareholders’ Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. dated 14 June 2006 regarding keeping of the accounts and drawing up of the financial statements of the Company in accordance with accounting principles set forth in International Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS), which came into force on 1 January 2007, the General Shareholders’ Meeting hereby annuls Resolution nr 31/2005 of the General Shareholders’ Meeting dated 15 June 2005 regarding settlement of the effects of a hyperinflationary revaluation of share capital to be presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and International Accounting Standards (IFRS/IAS).

II. This resolution comes into force on the date it is taken.

JUSTIFICATION

Beginning on 1 January 2005 KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. as an issuer of securities has been obligated to present its consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. The effect of implementation of IFRS on the presentation of the above financial statements was to also apply IAS 29 „Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies”, based on which there was a revaluation of share capital in the consolidated financial statements. The accounts of the Company and the separate financial statements were prepared during this period in accordance with Polish Accounting Standards.

As a result of the different accounting policies applied for each of these financial statements, there arose a discrepancy in the measurement of the share capital, which led to the following:

3) a discrepancy between the amount of share capital in the separate and consolidated financial statements, and consequently failure to follow the principle that the share capital presented in the consolidated financial statements is the share capital of the Parent Entity from the separate financial statements, and

4) a discrepancy between the share capital and the initial capital, as set forth in the Statutes of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. as a Parent Entity and in the corporate register KRS.

 

In order to harmonise the principles of measurement of share capital in the separate statements of the Parent Entity and the consolidated statements, and of settlement of the effects of revaluation with retained earnings from prior years, which was reduced by these effects, the Management Board of the Company, supported by legal opinion and by the recommendation of the auditor at that time, submitted a proposal to the Ordinary General Shareholders Meeting on decreasing the share capital by the amount of the revaluation, i.e. by the amount of PLN 5 413 573 130.12. Consequently, the Ordinary General Shareholders Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. on 15 June 2005 passed Resolution nr 31/2005 regarding settlement of the effects of a hyperinflationary revaluation of share capital to be presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and International Accounting Standards (IFRS/IAS).

This resolution – with respect to Resolution nr 26/2006 dated 14 June 2006 regarding keeping of the accounts and drawing up of the financial statements of the Company in accordance with accounting principles set forth in International Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS) – as of 1 January 2007 has become irrelevant, as both financial statements apply the same measurement principles, from which also arises harmony in the measurement of equity.

Proposal /6/ to point 6 of the agenda 

Resolution Nr ......./2007 of the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. with its registered head office in Lubin dated 18 October 2007

regarding: decrease of the share capital of the Company presented in the separate financial statements of the Company and the transfer of funds accumulated in share capital to supplementary capital.

Acting under art. 398 of the Commercial Partnerships and Companies Code and under § 23 sec. 1 and 2 of the Statutes of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., in consideration of the request of the Management Board, which was positively reviewed by the Supervisory Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., the General Shareholders’ Meeting resolves the following:

I. The General Shareholders Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedz S.A. hereby reduces the share capital of the Company – presented in the separate financial statements respectively on the date of application of International Financial Reporting Standards and on the date of preparation of the first interim financial statements under IFRS, i.e. on 30 June 2007, in the amount of PLN 7 413 573 130.12, and after hyperinflationary revaluation in the amount of PLN 5 413 573 130.12. Following this reduction the share capital remains in the amount of PLN 2 000 000 000.

II. The General Shareholders Meeting resolves to transfer the amount of PLN 5 413 573 130.12, being the amount by which the share capital of the Company was reduced, in accordance with § 1 of this Resolution, to the supplementary capital of the Company.

III. This resolution comes into force on the date it is taken.

JUSTIFICATION

From 1 January 2007 KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. has implemented International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS/IFRS) in the accounts and financial statements of the Company. The basis for application of IAS/IFRS was a decision of the General Shareholders Meeting of the Company - Resolution nr 26/2006 dated 14 June 2006 regarding keeping of the accounts and drawing up of the financial statements of the Company in accordance with accounting principles set forth in International Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IAS).

In accordance with IAS 29 „Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies” on the date of application of IAS/IFRS, the Company revalued its share capital to hyperinflationary conditions and as a result of this operation its amount increased to PLN 7 413 573 130.12, i.e. by PLN 5 413 573 130,12, which simultaneously decreased retained earnings from prior years. The share capital after revaluation only represents the carrying amount presented in the financial statements of the Company.

As the amount of share capital set forth in the Statutes of the Company and registered in the corporate register KRS amounts to PLN 2 000 000 000, due to the above revaluation there arose a difference between the carrying amount of the share capital and that of the initial capital, arising from the Statutes of the Company and the corporate register KRS. This difference is due to the lack of correlation between the provisions of the Commercial Partnerships and Companies Code and the principles of IAS/IFRS.

The decision of the General Shareholders Meeting of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. to decrease the initial capital by PLN 5 413 573 130.12, i.e. by the amount of the effect of hyperinflationary revaluation and to increase supplementary capital by this amount, is aimed at harmonising share capital in the financial statements of the Company with the amount of initial capital set forth in the Statutes of the Company and in the corporate register KRS.

Legal basis: §39, sec. 1 point 3 of the Decree of the Minister of Finance dated October 19, 2005, regarding current and periodic information disclosed by the issuers of securities (Journal of Laws from 2005 Nr 209, item 1744).
