Principles of Remuneration

The principles of remuneration of existing Members of the Management Board of Enea SA were introduced pursuant to the resolutions of Enea SA’s Supervisory Board dated 7 January 2016 and 18 February 2016. All the Members of the Management Board concluded Service Agreements - managerial contracts - with the Company, which are mentioned in Article 3 item 2 of the 3 March 2000 on remuneration of people managing certain legal entities (J. L. No. 26, item 306, as amended). Service agreements concluded by the Company and non-competition agreements enclosed to them provide as follows:

a) During the term of the Service agreement Members of the Board are authorised to receive a fixed monthly remuneration and a performance-related annual bonus in the amount of 40% of the total annual remuneration, calculated based on the principles specified in detail in the Service agreement

b) in return for complying by Members of the Board with the obligations resulting from the non-competition clause during its validity, Members of the Board may receive a compensation in the total amount equal to the product of: 1/12 of the total remuneration and number of months of validity of non-competition clause

c) if the Service agreement expires as a result of the expiry of the Member of the Board's term, the Company reserves the right to, for a period of one month of the agreement expiry, demand that Members of the Board render services relating to the transfer of issues connected with the business operations to a person indicated by the Chairman of the Supervisory Board. By this title Members of the Board are authorised to receive remuneration in the amount equal to the fixed remuneration

d) Members of the Board are entitled to receive a severance payment in the amount equal to the triple 1/12s of the total remunerations except for the following situations:

  • termination of the Service agreement by the Company or its expiry as a result of recalling from the position of a Member of the Board for a culpable material breach of the provisions of the Statute or the above mentioned Agreement to a detriment to the Company,
  • termination of the Service agreement by the Company or its expiry as a result of loss of the right to be a Member of the Board in the case specified in Article 18 of the Commercial Companies Code,
  • termination of the Service agreement by the Member of the Board or its expiry as a result of resignation from that position, if the termination of the said Agreement or resignation was not a result of reasons attributable to the Company.

The severance payment mentioned above is subject to an increase - if the Service agreement expires as a result of the Member of the Board's term expiry and is not prolonged as a result of a renomination of the same person to be a Member of the Board - by the value of the triple 1/12s of the total remunerations as no notice equivalent.

In the event of default by Members of the Board of the prohibition to conduct competitive operations Members of the Board will loose their right to receive further instalments of the damages and shall pay a contractual penalty for the account of the Company. The Company has the right to terminate the no-competition agreement if the non-competition clause grounds cease to be valid.

Members of the Board at own expense got insured against third party liability that may occur as a result of a failure to perform or improper performance of the management agreement.

The remuneration of Members of the Supervisory Board is set on the basis of the Minister of Treasury's declaration of 20 June 2000 on establishing the remuneration of members of Supervisory Boards in companies wholly owned by the State Treasury and is set at the level of the average monthly remuneration in the enterprise sector net of payments of bonuses from profits in Q4 of the previous year as published by the President of the Central Statistical Office. In 2014 the remuneration of Members of the Supervisory Board did not change.
