Board of Directors of CEZ, a. s. REPORT NO. 2: CEZ Shares Heading for Warsaw Stock Exchange WOOD & Company Financial Services to be the manager of the dual listing of CEZ shares in Poland. CEZ and WOOD & Company Financial Services have signed an agreement on cooperation in the planned listing of CEZ shares on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. "As we have advised before, we intend to enter the Warsaw Stock Exchange by the end of the first half of this year. We are now working hard on a prospectus, and our meetings with Polish investors have proven that the dual listing of our shares in Poland does make sense," said Petr Voboril, Financial Manager of CEZ. In addition to the preparation of the prospectus, its approval by the Czech National Bank, and its recognition by the Polish Securities Commission, WOOD & Co is to engage in arranging for the acceptance of CEZ shares by the Warsaw Stock Exchange, the implementation of a functional system for the settlement of trades in CEZ shares on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, communication with Polish investors, and the securing of the maximum liquidity of shares after the listing. Poland is a strategic market for CEZ as regards its expansion in Central and Southeastern Europe. At the end of January of this year, CEZ concluded an agreement on the acquisition of two Polish power companies, Elcho and Skawina. However, the entry of CEZ on the Warsaw Stock Exchange is also motivated by its interest in utilizing the opportunities existing on the developed capital market in Poland. As a result of this move, investments in CEZ shares will also be available to Polish pension funds, which are otherwise strictly regulated as to investments outside Poland. 4 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
