Following additional agreements, the reserve credit lines will be valid for 3 years.

"The extension of the existing credit agreements with ING Bank provides an additional long-term source of liquidity in USD and/ or EUR in the amount of up to USD 200 mn. At the same time, one of our credit lines worth USD 100 mn will remain linked to changes in our CSR rating, being actually a green finance. We expect that the Company's efforts on improving sustainable development practices will allow us to enhance the conditions of our loan portfolio in future."
