The share capital of PZU is divided into 863,523,000 ordinary shares with the face value of PLN 0.10 each, giving right to 863,523,000 votes on the General Shareholders’ Meeting.

On 30 June 2015, the General Shareholders’ Meeting of PZU adopted the resolution on splitting all shares of PZU by decreasing the nominal value of each PZU share from PLN 1 to PLN 0.10 and increasing the number of PZU shares which constitute the share capital from 86,352,300 to 863,523,000. The split of shares was performed through the exchange of all shares in 1:10 ratio. The split of shares had no influence on the share capital of PZU.

In line with the PZU By-laws, the voting right of the shareholders is restricted in a way that none of them can exercise more than 10% of the total number of votes at PZU at the date of the General Shareholders’ Meeting, with the reservation that for the purpose of determining obligations of parties acquiring material blocks of shares provided for in the Act on Public Offering and the Act on Insurance Activity, such voting restrictions are considered non-existent. The voting right restriction does not apply to:

  • shareholders who held shares entitling to more than 10% in the total number of votes in the Company as at the date of adopting a resolution of the General Shareholders’ Meeting;
  • shareholders co-acting with shareholders defined in the point above based on agreements concerning joint voting rights attached to the shares.

In case of any interpretation doubts with respect to the voting restrictions, Article 65.2 of the Civil Code will apply.

In line with the PZU’s By-laws, the above voting restrictions will expire when a share of a shareholder who, at the date of adopting a resolution of the shareholders’ meeting introducing the restriction, held shares entitling him to more than 10% in the total number of votes in the Company, drops below 5% of the share capital.
