SUMMARY RESULTS OF THE BOŚ S.A. GROUP As at 31 March 2017, the Bank Ochrony Środowiska S.A. Group is composed of Bank Ochrony Środowiska S.A., the parent entity to its subsidiaries: Dom Maklerski BOŚ S.A. brokerage service, BOŚ Eko Profit S.A., BOŚ Invest Management sp. z o.o., BOŚ Capital sp. z o.o., BOŚ Ekosystem sp. z o.o., as well as MS Wind sp. z o.o., an indirect subsidiary entity.

The firm commitment to restructuring of the Bank and the companies in the BOŚ S.A. Group in Q1 2017 resulted in a noticeable rise in earnings and a reduction of employee benefits. Raising the Bank’s profit rate above the average level in the banking sector is, as before, a priority goal in the BOŚ S.A. strategy for the years 2016−2020.

BOŚ S.A. Group reported Q1 2017 net profit at PLN 20.0 m, up from the PLN 12.9 m loss in the same period last year. It may be recalled that the Q1 2017 result had been reduced by a one-off yearly contribution for 2017to a mandatory Polish bank restructuring fund launched by the Bank Guarantee Fund [BFG]. The BOŚ S.A. contributed PLN 24.7 m to the mandatory undertaking. Had the contribution payment been spread out over the four quarters last year the Q1 2017 profit would have been recorded at PLN 38.5 m.

A selection of balance sheet positions and financial ratios:

For ratio definitions see point 3.

[1] BOŚ S.A. Group improved net interest by PLN 28.4 m, i.e., 40.2%, on the Q1 2016 figure, primarily in result of shrinking, in line with its strategy, the proportion of high-cost bonds on the liabilities side (repurchase of eurobonds and series G subordinate bonds) and substituting instead cheaper financing in form of investments and deposits and effectively reducing cost levels of investments and deposits taken by the Bank’s outlets,

[2] BOŚ S.A. Group reported its net fee and commission result PLN 3.3 m, i.e., 12.5%, above the previous year, as fee and commission earnings increased PLN 4.0 m, i.e., by 11.8%, primarily because of growing earnings on securities operations.

[3] Administrative expense of the Group grew PLN 4.7 m, or 4.4%, on the same period last year. The cost increase is attributable mainly to the circumstance that the above-mentioned BFG contribution was recognised in its entirety with Q1 2017 expenses. Employee benefit expense was lower by 10.3%, as employment at the BOŚ S.A. Group dropped 9.4%.

[4] Interest margin on total assets increased, primarily owing to a 40.2% increase in the BOŚ S.A. Group net interest result in Q1 2017.

[5] The ratio of net impairment write-downs for the last 12 months to average loans and advances balance in that period. A key factor in the upward move of the cost of risk was the posting of PLN 97.9 m in impairment write-downs on the portfolio of wind farm loans for 2016.

[6] BOŚ S.A. Group posted an improved cost/income (C/I) ratio, and that despite the recognition of the above-mentioned all-year BFG contribution with Q1 2017 costs. Had the contribution payment been spread out over the four quarters of the year, C/I for Q1 2017 profit would have been recorded at 60.3%.

BOŚ S.A. expanded its pro-ecology project market operations as it sought to enhance, in line with its strategy, the share of loans granted to finance actions contributing to environmental protection in its entire loan portfolio. Pro-ecology loan balance was at PLN 4.8 bn on 31 March 2017, accounting for 34.2% of the Bank’s total lending balance.

The value of contracts concluded in Q1 2017 to finance pro-ecology projects amounted to PLN 208.6 m. The vast majority of new pro-ecology loans were addressed to corporate clients. Such loans were assigned to support primarily projects in the area of sustainable construction, including both investment loans and working capital loans to entities putting in place buildings with high energy efficiency levels or pro-ecology solutions.

As in previous quarters, the loan portfolio structure continued to change as the share of loans to corporate clients in total lending was growing. At end Q1 this year their share in the total was 54.1%, compared with 52.3% at end Q1 2016. The share of the retail segment in total loans dropped to 32.7%. Balance sheet value of loans and advances to clients of the Group was PLN 13.6 bn at 31 March 2017.

The structure of liabilities changed in Q1 2017 as well. The share of high-cost subordinate liabilities was reduced by 0.5 p.p. compared with the Q1 2016 figure. The share of equity, on the other hand, increased 0.3 p.p. In the structure of liabilities to clients, the retail segment increased its share, with the share of deposits of the corporate segment dropping. Retail deposits balance was PLN 10.6 bn at end of Q1 2017. Total balance sheet value of the Group was PLN 20.4 bn on 31 March 2017.

In Q1 2017, Fitch Ratings Ltd affirmed their value ratings for the Bank: Long-term Foreign Currency IDR rating at B+ with stable perspective, Short-term Foreign Currency IDR rating at B, Viability rating at b+, Support Rating at 4, Support Rating Floor at B, and National Short-term Rating at BB+(pol) with stable perspective, and National Short-term Rating at B(pol). 1. MACROECONOMIC SITUATION In Q1 2017, data released in month-on-month publication frequency showed business activity in Poland clearly rising, following a slowdown in 2016. In Q1 2017, manufacturing output rose (to 7.1 y/y, from 1.5% y/y in Q4 last year), as construction output increased (to 4.6% y/y, from a 13.2% y/y slide in Q4 last year), as did retail sales, (to 7.6% y/y, up from 6.5% y/y in the previous quarter).

In Q1 2017, the labour market continued to pick up, as employment in the enterprise sector rose and registered unemployment dropped to 8.1% at end of the quarter, from 11.5%, compared with 9.9% in the same period the previous year, with the number of people out of job 275 000 at end Q1 below the figure in the same period last year.

CPI kept at adverse levels for most of the year in 2016. Early in 2017 inflation continued to soar as commenced towards the end of 2016. The upward move resulted in CPI reaching 2.2% in February (the highest level in more than 4 years). The main factor behind the process was the continuing growth in fuel prices, looking back at a very low level of statistical reference base of the year before. Along with that, the upward trend of inflation was temporarily boosted by a marked increase in food prices, especially of vegetables, following bad weather conditions in Europe. The upward trend of CPI was further spurred by high levels of administered prices, including electric energy tariffs, for retail consumers. Towards the end of the quarter a weakening vegetable price growth resulted in inflation dropping to 2.0% in March.

In Q1 2017, the Monetary Policy Council (RPP) upheld interest rates at stable levels, keeping the NBP reference rate at 1.5%. The RPP resolved to follow the previous line of stabilising the parameters of monetary policy in the nearest quarters. As NBP rates were stable, lending interest rates on the interbank market was stable as well, with WIBOR 3M at 1.73% at the end of the year.

Following a weakening of demand for financial assets of emerging markets towards the end of 2016 (attributable, among other things, to uncertainties over U.S. economic policies after Donald Trump was elected president and an anticipation of early tightening of Fed monetary policy), Q1 2017 brought with it a return of capital to emerging markets. The process was spurred by fears of the new American administration possibly embarking on a protectionist course in economic policy gradually attenuating and news of a series of positive developments coming from China.

With prospects of emerging markets improving, in connection with the positive effect of the weakening uncertainty over domestic economic policies, assets on the Polish market financial recovered. Over the period of Q1 2017 the local WIG share index grew more than 15%, return rates of domestic Treasury bonds dropped, and the Polish currency strengthened. In Q1 2017 the Polish złoty gained against the U.S. dollar (5.6%), the euro (4.6%) and the Swiss franc (4.2%).

BOŚ S.A. Group reported a net profit of PLN 20.0 m in Q1 2017, compared with a PLN 12.9 m loss in Q1 2016. The Q1 2017 result was encumbered by a one-off contribution, to be paid in the entire amount, to the Bank Guarantee Fund [BFG] mandatory bank restructuring scheme in the year 2017. The contribution amounted to PLN 24.7 m.

BOŚ S.A. Group improved its net interest figure by PLN 28.4 m, or 40.2%, on the Q1 2016 figure, in effect of substantial reduction of interest expense. Item Q1 2017 Q1 2016 Change %

Net interest income 99 123 70 677 40.2

Total interest and similar income decreased PLN 5.9 m, or 3.4%, in Q1 2017, from the same period last year, primarily because of the dropping volume of lending.

Interest and similar expense, on the other hand, decreased PLN 34.4 m, or 32.6%. What contributed most to that decrease was a PLN 25.7 m, or 77.9%, drop in the cost of financial instruments following the May 2016 repurchase of high-cost eurobonds and the February 2017 repurchase of the Bank’s own series G subordinate bonds. In Q1 2017, the early repurchase of series G own bonds did also have a one-off effect on the improvement of net interest, to the tune of PLN 6 m. The series was designed to bring about an increase of margin five years from issue date, which was posted in the books with current expense as adjustments of interest value determined by the effective interest rate method. Given the series G redemption and no further necessity of entering a margin rise period, the 5-year-old adverse net interest adjustment by the amount of PLN 6 m was derecognised in the books in February this year.

Investments taken, deposits and current accounts expense dropped PLN 10.6 m, or 14.6%. Average basic interest rate on PLN deposits taken by the Bank outlets was 1.69% in Q1 2017, down from 2.00% in Q1 2016.

The Group increased its net fee and commission income by PLN 3.3 m, or 12.5%, in Q1 2017 from the same period in 2016, as earnings growth outpaced fee and commission expense growth rate. Earnings increased by PLN 4.0 m, or 11.8%, primarily from increased earnings on securities operations. Fee and commission expense grew 9.4%, mainly in effect of growing brokerage service costs.

Net trading income the BOŚ S.A. Group posted in Q1 2017 was PLN 8.1 m, compared with PLN 15.0 m the year before, mostly because the Bank noted a lower result on FX swap and IRS transactions and also because Dom Maklerski BOŚ S.A. brokerage posted lower earnings on CFD contracts for difference operations, and on other financial derivative instruments.

The Group’s net investment securities was PLN 6.8 m, after a subsidiary of the Bank disposed of stocks of a GPW [Warsaw stock exchange] listed company while also releasing previous write-downs.

Net foreign exchange was PLN 7.4 m, a 186% increase the same period last year, mainly following positive revaluations of forward and spot instruments and a decreased net result of client transactions.

Net impairment result, at −PLN 10.6 m in Q1 2017, was improved on the same period last year when it was −PLN 21.5 m.

Administrative expenses of the Group grew by PLN 4.7 m, or 4.4%, compared with the same period last year, primarily because the Bank’s BFG contribution had increased by PLN 20.0 m. The BFG contribution on the mandatory bank restructuring fund which was set to the amount of PLN 24.7 m for the whole year of 2017, was recognised with Q1 2017 costs. Item Q1 2017 Q1 2016 Change %

Interest margin on total assets, calculated as the (annualised) ratio of net interest income to averaged assets balance at the beginning and end of the period, increased markedly, from a level of 1.3% in Q1 2016 and 1.5% in the year 2016 to a level of 1.9% in Q1 2017, primarily in effect of a 40.2% increase of net interest income at the BOŚ S.A. Group in Q1 2017, as total assets grew only slightly over the period.

C/I ratio amounted to 72.4%, an improvement the Group could post even though it had to recognise the entire BFG contribution for the mandatory bank restructuring fund in the amount of PLN 24.7 m for the year 2017 already with its cost balance for just one quarter, Q1 2017. Had the BFG contribution been spread evenly over the four quarters this year, the Group would have posted its C/I ratio for Q1 2017 at 60.3%.

Under provisions of art. 92 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 (CRR), the Bank is required to maintain at all times a total capital ratio at not less than 8%. Tier 1 capital ratio and Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio should be kept at least at 6% and 4.5%, respectively.

The Bank posted these capital adequacy requirements at the following levels:

In 2006, in administrative proceedings connected with a request from the NFOŚiGW [National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Resource Management] to get permission for exercising voting rights from the Bank shares the NFOŚiGW undertook to the KNF [Polish Financial Supervision Authority] to maintain the Bank’s capital adequacy ratio (now referred to as aggregate capital adequacy ratio) at a level not less than 12%. The administrative proceedings in which the NFOŚiGW pledged the promise to the KNF was instituted in connection with the NFOŚiGW buying back the Bank shares from Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken. The Bank keeps to the capital requirements resulting from the KNF instruction in its financial planning and in the Bank strategy.

On 22 October 2015 the KNF advised banks of the establishment of a backing buffer to boost capital requirement ratios by 1.25 p.p. In effect, as of 1 January 2016 the KNF recommended minimum capital requirement levels were rose to 10.25% for Tier I capital and 13.25% for total capital requirement TCR.

On 29 December 2016 the KNF recommended that the BOŚ S.A. Group maintain its own funds to provide for an additional capital requirement against risk resulting from currency-denominated mortgage loans for households, at a level of 0.72 p.p. above the total capital ratio referred to in art. 92 subpara. 1 letter c in the CRR Regulation, which should be composed at least in 75% of Tier I capital (corresponding to capital requirement at a level of 0.54 p.p. above the value of Tier 1 capital ratio referred to in art. 92 subpara. 1 letter b in the CRR Regulation) and at least in 56% of Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio (corresponding to capital requirement at a level of 0.40 p.p. above the value of Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio referred to in art. 92 subpara. 1 letter a in the CRR Regulation).

At 31 March 2017, the BOŚ S.A. Group maintained its capital adequacy levels above the respective KNF recommendations.

5. The Bank development lines On 20 April 2016, the Bank Supervisory Board approved a “Framework Strategy of Development of BOŚ S.A. for the years 2016−2020”. With the Strategy approved, work was started on its operationalisation. Towards the end of June 2016 the Bank Management Board gave its general approval of the envisaged strategic initiatives. The approved list of strategic initiatives features undertakings designed to raise the effectiveness of functioning of the Bank, specifically:

• cost optimisation oriented activities conducive both to a restructuring of the Bank and to the provision of financial backing of efforts connected with boosting earnings. Initiatives connected with cost optimisation include efforts to ensure, among other things, cost optimisation in personnel expense management, service contract reduction or renegotiation, consolidation and optimisation of infrastructure and IT&N licences, and renegotiation of rental costs of sales network facilities;

• moves ensuring development of the Bank, which implies endeavours to win new clients as well as to boost earnings. Development of the Bank is to be warranted by activities in areas such as: − expanding co-operation with of the Bank with Lasy Państwowe national forest management

authority and its partners by improving the product offer for availability and diversity, taking advantage of the co-operation potential of companies in the BOŚ S.A. Group,

− boosting sales of the Bank offer to well-off clients by setting up a separate business segment of well-off clients and establishing a structure of dedicated advisers offering suitable quality service and individual approach adequate to needs and potentials of well-to-do clients,

− modernising the online and mobile banking services by adapting them to market standards and, as a next step, implementing innovative solutions,

− developing a comprehensive offer of products for corporate clients, by adjusting the product offer to needs of selected industries and segments through the identification of product gaps and subsequently their elimination while highlighting the specialisation of the Bank in financing and supporting of specific industries which are prioritised in the approved Strategy,

− developing the offer of pro-ecology products in co-operation with the National Fund of Environmental Protection and Water Resource Management (NFOŚiGW) and its counterparts in the regions,

− boosting sales by broadening the Bank offer for institutional clients in the Retail Market Area, with special attention to micro businesses, by making changes to the Bank’s client segmentation pattern and reaching out within the retail component to groups which BOŚ S.A. has not yet approached with its offer,


16

− implementing a new lending process, among other things by designing and implementing a comprehensive management pattern for the lending process in its entirety with responsibilities for the successive steps in the process precisely assigned and with effectiveness measures clearly defined, the automation of the process and designing new processes dedicated to identified micro segments (e.g., in the particular industries),

− changing the business model of the call centre.

In Q1 2017, the Bank continued to put in place the assumptions underlying the adopted strategic initiatives.

BOŚ S.A. ratings affirmed

On 16 February 2017 (current report No. 7/2017) Fitch Ratings Ltd affirmed their ratings of the Bank: Long-term Foreign Currency IDR at B+ with stable outlook, Short-term Foreign Currency IDR at B, Viability Rating at b+, Support Rating at 4, Support Rating Floor at B, and National Short-term Rating at BB+(pol), National Short-term Rating at B(pol). Fitch further affirmed their ratings for the Bond Issue Programme to a cap value of PLN 2 billion: senior unsecured bond programme at BB+(pol), and senior unsecured bond programme at B(pol). Also, for series R1 subordinate bonds worth PLN 83 m Fitch affirmed their rating at BB-(pol).

The current level of rating results from the view of the Agency regarding an only limited probability of extraordinary support for the Bank from the Polish sovereign, mostly due to the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD). The Agency expressed its belief that state institutions could endeavour to act pre-emptively to avoid the Bank breaching regulatory capital adequacy requirements due to the state’s indirect ownership of the Bank and its role in financing Poland’s environmental protection projects. Fitch named a successful completion of a rehabilitation programme and easing the present credit risk concentration among factors that may induce it to raise their rating of Poland. Expanding the offer for corporate clients

As before, BOŚ S.A. looks on the small and medium enterprises sector (SME) as a major market segment for its operations. In expanding its array of settlement, deposit and loan products the Bank operates a base for each client to avail themselves of individual bank products best fitting their specific needs.


17

The Bank’s settlement products offer includes standard current accounts which record settlement operations and deposits and are used for domestic and international payments. Such accounts can be maintained in the following currencies: PLN, USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, SEK, HUF, RUB, CZK and DKK. The Bank offer provides a possibility of using settlement services in modular form. We offer clients Business Exceptional Accounts [Konta Wyjątkowe Biznes] in three variants adjusted to Client’s transaction level with extra modules: a settlements module and an optional FX module depending on Client’s business profile.

In Q1 2017: • the Bank expanded its electronic banking system by adding functionalities making possible the

electronic processing of more applications, and streamlining client instructions. At this stage the Bank system processes 48 electronic applications but more are being added;

• new solutions were implemented at the Corporate Client Support Centre to provide multichannel remote control of client instructions. As of 1 January this year a specialist team has been working to provide all-embracing after-sales support services to Corporate clients.

The Bank continued to sell loans designed to assist the financing of current operations and investment undertakings, including pro-ecology projects, adjusting terms and conditions of credit transactions to client needs on a case-to-case basis. Brokerage services

Its strong market position and high quality of service earned Dom Maklerski BOŚ S.A. once again recognition and industry awards. In Q1 this year, Dom Maklerski BOŚ was awarded the “Byki and Niedźwiedzie” [Bulls and Bears] distinction as the Best Brokerage House by Gazeta Giełdy Parkiet stock market journal, won GPW share market distinctions for its highest share of local animator in trading on the Main Market in 2016 and for its highest share in the volume of futures contracts for shares in 2016, as well as a KDPW Group award for its high quality of reporting transactions to KDPW_TR [Trade Repository] in 2016. The monthly Home&Market in turn awarded Dom Maklerski BOŚ S.A. its Financial Order for an application called bossaMobile+ for use on tablets in the Product Investment category. Factoring

Bank Ochrony Środowiska S.A. operates a dedicated net device, BOŚ Faktor, to manage factoring services. The system gives Clients full control of their accounts and direct round-the-clock contact to the Bank 7 days a week. The system provides automatic processing of factoring transactions. In Q1 2017, factoring transactions at BOŚ reached a total of PLN 754.7 m. The Bank’s share of the market was approximately 2%.

In Q1 2017, BOŚ S.A. factoring service managed a total of 103 factoring contracts, 6 500 partners, and purchased a total of 18 000 invoices. Expanding the offer for retail clients

The Bank’s retail market area comprises the segments: natural persons, micro businesses, housing communities, and nongovernment organisations and other non-commercial institutions (NGOs).

BOŚ S.A. has for retail clients, which the biggest the Bank clients group, an all-embracing offer


18

featuring all basic products and services available on Poland’s banking market (bank accounts, settlement products, payment cards, services and products for investing surplus cash, electronic banking services and loan products, plus a broad range of pro-ecology products available for financing environment-friendly solutions.

In Q1 2017, the Bank continued to work on improving its offer, both by modifying products already present in the offer and introducing new and innovative solutions.

In Q1 2017, the Bank continued its activity in respect of: • optimising its financial results in the retail market area; • changing its deposit offer to respond to the dynamically changing trading environment and to

warrant realisation of adopted business and liquidity targets; • further strengthening of the role of the Bank’s pro-ecology offer in loan product sales; • raising competency levels of sales staff at the Bank in offering clients loan products and deposit

products for businesses, savings and savings-with-investment products, as well as insurance products, in particular protective products attached optionally to settlement and loan products, and also products offered separately.

Amounts owed to retail clients

The policies the Bank launched in area of deposit offer in Q1 2017 were designed, on the one hand, to accommodate to the fast-changing external conditions over time, and, on the other, to meet the Bank’s business and liquidity targets, all the time seeking to minimise cost levels of the deposit portfolio and to adjust to the changing macroeconomic environment, as well as reinforcing the current funding potential.

In Q1 2017, the following deposit products for retail clients were most essential from the point of view of balance management: • current accounts, including savings accounts, in particular the EKOprofit,

• promotional deposits: Ekolokata Korzystna, EKOlokata SUPERprocentująca, EKOlokata Wysoko Procentująca, EKOlokata z Bonusem and EKOlokata na Lata (a two-year deposit, launched to replace the EKOlokata Urodzinowa).

In its deposit policy the Bank kept to the following line:

1) diversifying the risk of excessive cumulation of maturing balances with a possible outflow of funds at a short time by maintaining 4, 6, 9, 12 and 24-month products in the offer,

2) promoting multi-product Clients: in the course of designing its offer of term deposits the Bank introduced solutions allowing for offering higher prices to Clients taking advantage of the Bank offer over and above the term deposits (with emphasis on active accounts, which are conducive to Client establishing strong ties to the Bank),

3) establishing standing relations with Clients through actions likely to boost deposit renewability levels,

4) seeking to ensure a regular rise in level and growth of deposits of current retail clients, 5) increasing balances of funds kept on current accounts, which helped lower the cost level of the

balance as a whole, 6) keeping the cost level possibly low by changing from time to time interest rates on term deposits

and savings accounts.

Along with that, with a view to reducing the currency mismatch the Bank continued to work on the German market by starting to co-operate with a German brokerage service. Under an agreement in that respect since December 2016 the Bank has been taking deposits in EUR from the German market.

Along the same line, in February 2017 the Bank introduced in its offer a new deposit offer in CHF, the EKOlokata z Frankiem, for the purpose of easing the currency mismatch against the Swiss currency at the Bank.

The offer of deposits for the institutional clients segment (micro businesses, housing communities and NGOs) was likewise modified. Even while such deposits account for a mere 6.2% of total retail


19

deposits and do not affect significantly its net interest result, the Bank nonetheless changed its rates on current accounts and deposits in March 2017. Interest rates were lifted on accounts under administration, and instead the Bank launched a promotional action to advertise its current offer of accounts by introducing interest rates on them. Additionally, interest on current accounts in CHF was raised.

In Q1 this year, too, the Bank launched promotional actions for accounts for micro businesses, housing communities and NGOs (the actions are expected to be under way through to 31 December 2017), offering marketing support and additional distribution channels.

In Q1 2017, in the area of bank accounts the Bank aimed at the following:

• in checking accounts, i.e., savings-and-settlements accounts, the Bank focused on offering two savings-and-settlements accounts: EKOkonto bez Kosztów and EKOkonto VIP; in respect of savings accounts the Bank focused on the EKOprofit, including its Regular Savings Programme Systematycznego Oszczędzania encouraging clients to take advantage and use savings-and-settlements accounts;

• in current accounts, the Bank aimed at winning new clients in the micro businesses segment, partnerships and capital companies alike, and in the housing communities segment – through promotional actions primarily for mass incoming transfer payments (under the Polish acronym MPP services), in the two accounts in the Bank offer: the accounts Wspólnota and Wspólnota Plus.

Investment products

Aware of current tendencies on the market financial, in particular the falling attractiveness of banking investments in an environment of dwindling interest rates and a likely reappearance of Clients’ interest in products alternative to investments, the Bank was busy developing an offer of investment products.

In Q1 2017, in its capacity as agent of Dom Maklerski BOŚ S.A.’s investment arm (AFI DM BOŚ) the Bank collected subscriptions for investment certificates of two investment societies: Altus Towarzystwo Funduszy Inwestycyjnych S.A. and AGIO Towarzystwo Funduszy Inwestycyjnych S.A. Also as AFI DM BOŚ S.A. agent, the Bank was offering acquisition of FIO participation units in more than 20 investment fund societies. The Q1 2017 offer comprised nearly 300 different funds. Insurance products

In Q1 2017, the Bank within the framework of its bancassurance service offered Clients in the retail segment protective insurance products. The Bank business activity in that area focused on sales of life assurance and deferred annuity products called “Moja Ochrona ze zwrotem” of Nationale-Nederlanden Towarzystwo Ubezpieczeń na Życie S.A. which was offered as a standalone product, and on insurance policies on mortgage products and on photovoltaic installations for clients taking advantage of the product Ekoloan PV. Persons buying cash advance products were offered a possibility of buying insurance policies covering protection of life, incapacity for work, serious illness, accidents, and loss of job.

In selling insurance products the Bank operated as agent of insurance societies. Insurance product sales boosted multiproduct engagement of Clients and generated commission earnings. The Bank regularly raised the level of competency of its staff of advisers in respect of insurance sales.

Aware of the enduring black PR regarding investment product protection the Bank chose not to offer such products in Q1 2017. Loan products: individual Clients, micro businesses, housing communities, NGOs

The most important loan products in Q1 2017 include: • pro-ecology loans, • cash advance, • credit cards, • pro-ecology mortgage loan, • mortgage cash advance,


20

• loans assisting the financing of current operations for micro businesses.

In its policy of step-by-step enhancement of involvement in financing pro-ecology solutions, in Q1 2017 the Bank focused on the continuation of its effort to make the offer more attractive by modifying the functioning of products assisting the financing of environment-friendly solutions.

Along with that, intent on boosting its lending balance and stepping up cash advance sales, the Bank reshuffled its price pattern for cash advance loan sales to make that type of product more competitive on the market.

In Q1 2017, the Bank continued to sell mortgage products to individual clients, along with its standard offer of mortgage products. The Bank now has in its offer a mortgage loan with the programme MDM, which gives clients a chance to get part support to their own contribution from the Housing Loan Subsidising Fund as well as a mortgage cash advance. Furthermore, the Bank launched promotional action for its mortgage cash advance product called “Dreams to Come True” [Marzenia do spełnienia], the idea being that such actions can help the Bank win high-margin products and to get its offer well-positioned in rankings of mortgage products.

In Q1 2017, the Bank focused its efforts on further streamlining the central lending process for micro businesses, housing communities and NGOs.

Lastly, the Bank: − made changes to the list of documents a micro business is required to present on submitting a

loan application if such business works on simplified bookkeeping rules. The changes effectively reduce the number of requisite documents for submission,

− changed its approach to the product offer of working-capital current-account loan, dropping the requirement of setting a cap on the loan amount depending on the volume of business operations.

7. Factors likely to affect performance at least in the next quarter

Environmental Protection Act

On 7 April 2017, the Polish parliament approved a Senate amendments package to a draft law called Environmental Protection Act and on 11 April submitted it to the Polish President for signature. The amendments change the election procedure of directing bodies of regional environmental protection and water resource management authorities (WFOŚiGWs), as it shifts responsibility for electing members of supervisory bodies of regional authorities from local government to the central administration. When the new regulation has come into force the WFOŚiGWs will have had their status changed from being a local government legal person to being an administrative unit reporting to the Minister of Environmental Protection and the NFOŚiGW. EU sponsored programmes

Implementation of solutions comprised under EU sponsored programmes in the Polish legal and institutional systems is still under way. EU promoted policies include, first and foremost, supporting the switchover to low-emission economy and climate change and efficient resource utilisation. Funding will be provided, among other things, to the Operating Programme Infrastructure and Environment and Regional Operating Programmes: for these first application invitations have been called. With the onset of investment activities in that respect demand for bank investment lending is likely to grow, to supplement the EU provided funding.

Other factors likely to impact the Group’s performance in the coming quarters include:

• Effects of a possible regulatory solution of the problem of housing loans denominated in CHF or other foreign currencies

At the time of publication of this report the final shape of regulatory solution of the problem of housing loans denominated in foreign currencies is not known. Should present redenomination


21

proposals in respect of mortgage loans extended in foreign currencies be enacted financial results of the banking sector at large, and of BOŚ S.A., would be affected adversely.

• Risk of PLN weakening against CHF and EUR

Should the Polish złoty weaken markedly against the CHF or EUR one development in consequence of such weak rate sustaining for a time would be a tendency for currency loans to grow in volume. Such a situation would strengthen the pressure on capital requirements in respect of foreign currency loans, and, on the other hand, a need of increased financing would result inevitably. Any substantial depreciation of PLN against foreign currencies, in particular against CHF, enduring for a long time would certainly have an adverse effect on the quality of the portfolio of foreign currency mortgage loans.

• Risk of growing volatility on global financial markets and of lowering ratings of Poland and of the Bank

Financial market volatility risk may result, among other things, in growing costs to the Bank of external financing, a more complicated access to international financing sources, or difficulties in handling transactions in respect of foreign currency and interest rate risk management.

• Possible additional contribution to the Borrower Support Fund

Additional mandatory contributions to the Borrower Support Fund cannot be ruled out.

• IFRS 9 comes into force

With International Financial Reporting Standard 9 coming into force as of 1 January 2018 changes at least three work areas will be affected: the impairment measurement model, the financial instrument classification and valuation model, and hedge accounting. From the economic point of view, implementation of the new model of impairment measurement as of 1 January 2018 may necessitate adjustments to equity value or financial result in the amount of difference between impairment write-downs calculated according to IFRS 9 and the now binding model according to IAS 39. The new classification and valuation of assets may result in corrections to capital ratios at the moment of switching over to IFRS 9 and greater volatility of financial result in successive periods than might be necessary in valuation of part of the assets in hand at fair value by virtue of the financial result. At this point, the potential effect the IFRS 9 may have on the financial situation and own funds is impossible to gauge; work on that is under way.

• Risk of enduring low interest rates or further interest cuts in PLN and foreign currency products

Any further interest rate cuts, if put in place, would curtail the net interest margin now in effect and would push down net interest result, as regulatory restrictions already put caps on rates, any further lowering of interest rates on current accounts is no longer possible, and contracts providing for wholesale financing in foreign currencies contain provisions that forbid application of adverse interest rates in any case.

• Coverage of impaired exposures with impairment write downs

Given the specifics of its business (its involvement in pro-ecology projects) the Bank has to engage in relatively high-priced transactions, so it necessarily seeks to maximise security against risk on its exposures. Any provision the Bank establishes to update the gross value of an exposure always reflects the corresponding security received.

8. Segment reporting In keeping with IFRS 8 regulations operating segments are defined based on internal management reports on components of an entity that are reviewed regularly by the entity's chief operating decision maker. The rules of reporting by reportable operating segments as applied herein were presented under point 46 in the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements of the Capital Group of BOŚ S.A. for the period of twelve months ended 31 December 2016.

As of 2017, in connection with the servicing character of treasury dealings and investment operations to the corporate and public finance and retail segments, for presentation purposes net interest and similar income figures recorded in the area of treasury dealings and investment operations are


22

allocated to the respective business area segments. Such allocations are based on keys reflecting the scale of lending and deposit activities. Results subject to allocation reflect:

• net results on wholesale financing and on securities, including: net income on investment securities and loans to banks and debt securities (except for municipal and corporate bonds), costs of interbank deposits and of ALM [Automatic License Manager] clients, loans from banks and international financial institutions, liabilities on debt securities,

• net result on foreign currency position, i.e., net FX SWAP transactions,

• income from regulatory provisions, i.e., from cash and balances with the Central Bank [NBP],

• net result on transfer settlements, i.e., difference between ALM earnings on financing activities of the business areas and ALM expenses on repurchase of deposit funds taken by the business areas.

Results for the operating segments for the same period of the previous year were rendered comparable.

The tables below show consolidated financial results of the BOŚ S.A. Group for the 3-month periods ended 31 March 2017 and 31 March 2016, respectively, as attributable to the particular segments.

I. Information on accounting principles (policy) adopted in preparing the consolidated financial statements

These interim consolidated financial statements of data for the BOŚ S.A. Group (“Group”) and financial statements for BOŚ S.A. for the 3 months ended 31 March 2017 have been prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted for use in the European Union and at the report period, i.e., 31 March 2017, with identical accounting principles applied for each period.

These consolidated shortened financial statements do not comprise all disclosures that are required in yearly financial statements.

As at the date this report was signed off for publication, as the IFRS implementation is under way in the European Union and given the activity areas of the Group, the accounting principles applied by the Group do not diverge from the IFRS standards that have come into force and the IFRS approved by the EU.

The IFRS comprise standards and interpretations approved by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC).

These interim consolidated financial statements of the BOŚ S.A. Group have been prepared according to the historical cost method, except as modified by the revaluation of financial assets available for sale, securities for trading, and any derivative contracts measured at fair value. The accounting principles the Group applies and which have also been applied in these interim consolidated financial statements prepared for the period of the 3 months ended 31 March 2017 were described in detail in the yearly Consolidated Financial Statements of the BOŚ S.A. Group for the period of twelve months ended 31 December 2016 in note2 2.3−2.30. None of the standards and interpretations or changes introduced for a first time in 2017 had any significant effect on these interim consolidated financial statements of the Group.

The drafting of the financial statements in compliance with IFRS as approved by the EU requires the application of specific estimates significant for accounting. It also requires the Management Board to use its own judgment in applying the accounting policies. The issues in relation to which a greater degree of judgment is required, generally complex issues, or issues involving significant reliance on estimates or judgments for the purpose of the consolidated financial statements in respect of credit impairment, impairment of equity instruments available for sale, debt securities held to maturity, fair value of financial instruments, provisions against future liabilities and claims, provisions for employee benefits, or assets from deferred tax, were presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements of the BOŚ S.A. Group for the period of twelve months ended 31 December 2016 and they apply to this report as well.

These interim financial statements are drafted in Polish złotys (PLN), and, unless specified otherwise, all values are in thousands of złotys (PLN 000s).

II. Comparative data

The Group has introduced no change to its presentations from the previous consolidated financial statements published to the date of 31 March 2016.

III. Adjustment of prior period errors

At 31 March 2017 and for the period of three months ended 31 March 2017 the Group made no correction to previous financial reports released to the dates of 31 December 2016 and 31 March 2016, respectively.

Subordinate debt 494 441 468 265 601 373 568 385

Amounts due from other banks Amounts due from other banks include nostro accounts and loans and cash advances. Interbank deposits at fair value as short-term products (fixed rate interbank deposits run for up to 6 months) are the same as their balance sheet value. Bonds issued by banks were recognised at fair value adjusted for loan spreads determined based on recent comparable issues launched by similar banks. Loans and advances extended to clients and other banks

Loans and cash advances extended to clients and other banks were presented after deducing impairment write-offs. At balance sheet level they are valued at depreciation cost on effective interest rate. Fair value of loans is assumed to reflect their value resulting from current valuation of future principal and interest flows (separately for loans in foreign currencies and for those in PLN) determined based on effective interest rate for each loan (except for loans with unspecified time frames or non-performing receivables for which their balance sheet value is taken to be their fair value) discounted at averaged effective interest rate of loans extended over the last twelve months. For mortgage loans, advance payments were taken into account. For loans in foreign currencies that Bank has ceased selling, averaged effective interest rate for corresponding loans extended in PLN adjusted for the difference between rate levels in the particular currencies and in PLN, were used. Amounts owed to non-banking entities

Liabilities in the balance sheet are valued at depreciation cost on effective interest rate. As fair value of such items is taken their value resulting from discounting principal and interest for all deposits by averaged weighted interest rate applicable to deposits taken in March 2017. As no specified time frames for current accounts are available these items are presented at their balance sheet value.

Amounts (of principal and of interest) owed to international financial institutions were discounted by averaged effective interest rate for liabilities arising in 2015 (for EUR) or else the latest transaction concluded in the currency (for PLN).


38

Subordinate debt

Subordinate debt at fair value was presented as adjusted for changing load spread determined based on the issue the Bank launched in 2015. Liabilities on account of securities issued

Liabilities on account of securities issued were priced at fair value adjusted for changing load spreads for bonds in PLN determined based on issue in PLN the Bank launched in 2015. Amounts owed to Central Bank and other banks

Amounts owed to the Central Bank and liabilities arising on repurchase transactions were presented at balance sheet value. Liabilities arising on repurchase transactions were presented at balance sheet value as no market data are available to calculate the basic repo transaction of the Bank with the counterparty at fair value.

Interbank deposits, as short-term products, were presented at balance sheet value, as cash advances (principal and interest) were discounted by averaged effective interest rate for liabilities arising in 2015.
