Against 2009, the year 2010 saw an increase in revenues and a decrease in the net profit value.

other costs in connection with the implementation of the Zone project � expenses incurred in relation with the purchase of 80% of the share capital of Kartpol

Group Sp z o.o. � expenses related to the relocation of part of operations to the production Department in

Bydgoszcz � expenses incurred in relation with the restructuring process

Information on marketing outlets and sources of supply. Dependence on a sole or more than one suppliers. The year 2010 required a lot of attention and concentration on the analyses of the sales and supply markets. After the difficult year 2009, since the beginning of 2010 the first symptoms of stabilisation were observed in the outlets for the Company’s products, and particularly in the automotive and construction industries. Early in 2010 the Company observed an increase in the number of orders as against 2009, which resulted in a higher sales value. On the other hand, the Company still faced problems related to concluding stable, long-term contracts, as well as with debt collection. In 2010 the Company generated the revenue of PLN 50 051 thousand, of which 87.9 % were from sales in the domestic market. The domestic sale share in the total revenues was higher by 6.1 percentage points than in the preceding year. Foreign sales (including intra-Community supplies) represented 12.1% of the total sales, with the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland and Sweden being the biggest outlets. In 2010 no contractor purchased for the net value in excess of 10% of the total value of the Company’s sales. As far as the primary groups of production materials purchased from a sole supplier (more than 50%) within January - December 2010 are concerned, there were three major companies manufacturing sheet metal, automotive accessories, and seals. The two companies for which the ratio of purchase value to total revenues from sales of products, goods and materials exceeded 10% were Basell Orlen and TVK. Plastics are the main material used in the Company production process, and both their price fluctuations and the foreign exchange rate changes (plastics purchase transactions depend mainly on the euro exchange rate ) have a direct impact on the financial results obtained and return on sales. The primary factors in choosing a supplier are always the quality of the materials offered and their price. From the quality point of view, there are some materials very difficult to substitute, due to their specification and technical parameters, with which to obtain the required quality of the manufactured products in accordance with their specific application. Thus, in several cases the options of switching to alternative suppliers are limited.

Recommendations for publicly quoted companies

1. A company should pursue a transparent and effective information policy using both traditional methods and modern technologies ensuring fast, secure and broad access to information. Using such communication methods to the broadest extent possible, a company in particular should

- enable on-line broadcasts of General Meetings over the Internet, record General Meetings, and publish the recordings on the company website.

The Company does not broadcast its General Meetings over the Internet since it makes it possible for each shareholder to attend General Meetings and prepares the Minutes of the debate. The resolutions adopted at the Meetings are published on the Internet without delay and they are also published on the Company’s website. Each shareholder has an access to this information.

5. A company should have a remuneration policy and rules of defining the policy. The remuneration policy should in particular determine the form, structure, and

Page 24: The Management Board Report on the activity of the Issuer ...

level of remuneration of members of supervisory and management bodies. The Commission Recommendation of 14 December 2004 fostering an appropriate regime for the remuneration of directors of listed companies (2004/913/EC) and Commission Recommendation of 30 April 2009 complementing that Recommendation (2009/385/EC) should apply in defining the remuneration policy for members of supervisory and management bodies of the company

As on the date of submitting this declaration, the Company declares that this principle is not applied. The remuneration of the members of the Company’s supervising and managing bodies is fixed in accordance with the Suwary S.A. Articles of Association and the Code of Commercial Companies.

The WSE recommends to public companies and their shareholders that they ensure a balanced proportion of women and men in management and supervisory functions in companies, thus reinforcing the creativity and innovation of the companies’ economic business. The members of the existing Supervisory Board were appointed by a resolutions of the General Meeting of Shareholders dated July 1st 2010, thus prior to the coming into force of the 2010 Best Practices. The principle of a balanced proportion of women and men in the Supervisory Board is not adhered to. The Company does not exclude the option of a balanced proportion of women and men in the Supervisory Board in the election for the next tenure. The principle of a balanced proportion of women and men in the Management Board is adhered to. II. Best practices for Management Boards of Listed Companies I. The Company should operate a corporate website and publish:

5) where members of the company’s governing body are elected by the General Meeting – the basis for proposed candidates for the company’s Management Board and Supervisory Board available to the company, together with the professional CVs of the candidates within a timeframe enabling a review of the documents and an informed decision on a resolution.

The application of this principle depends on the readiness of the shareholders entitled to attend a General Meeting to voluntary undertake to submit to the company information about their intentions as to putting forward candidacies for the company’s supervisory board prior to the general meeting. Prior to the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders in 2010, none of the shareholders entitled submitted a proposal of candidacy for a Supervisory Board member position to the Management Board or the Supervisory Board. 7) the shareholders’ questions related to the issues on the agenda submitted before and during a general meeting, including the answers to those questions. The issuer declares that it does not apply this principle. In the Company no detailed record is made of the course of the General Meeting of Shareholders including questions and answers. The Chairman of the General Meeting, based on the regulations in force, the importance of a particular issue, and the shareholders’ justified requests, decides which matters to put in the minutes of the General Meetings. The participants of the General Meeting, in accordance with the Code of Commercial Companies, and the

Page 25: The Management Board Report on the activity of the Issuer ...

Regulations of the General Meeting of Shareholders, have a right to put forward written statements, which are attachments to the minutes. The Company considers such principles to be sufficient to ensure the transparency of its general meetings. IV. Best Practices of Shareholders

10. A company should enable its shareholders to participate in a General Meeting using electronic communication means through: 1) real-life broadcast of General Meetings; 2) real-time bilateral communication where shareholders may take the floor during a General Meeting from a location other than the General Meeting; 3) exercise their right to vote during a General Meeting either in person or

through a plenipotentiary. The Company declares that at the moment the aforementioned principle is not applied. The Company does not exclude its application in the future. The internal control and risk management system applied in the Company in relation to the financial statements preparation process. The Company’s Management Board is responsible for the internal control system in the Company and the effectiveness of the system in the process of financial statements preparations. Substantive supervision of the financial statements and periodic reports preparation process is exercised by the Chief Accountant. Also, s/he is responsible for the coordination of work on the financial statements preparation and monitors any changes required by law and external regulations related to the stock exchange reporting requirements. On a monthly basis after the accounting books are closed, reports containing management information are handed out to the Management Board members including an analysis of the key financial data, which is later examined by the Management Board.
