The share purchase has the character of a long-term investment. Under the agreement, ENEA S.A. intends to remain the principal, comprehensive and strategic partner of Oborniki District with respect to the supply of electricity, heating and street lighting, and it expects Oborniki District to jointly instigate this cooperation and remain a shareholder of Przedsiębiorstwo Energetyki Cieplnej Sp. z o.o. in Oborniki. The shares purchased constitute over 20 per cent of the share capital of Przedsiębiorstwo Energetyki Cieplnej Sp. z o.o. and therefore qualify as significant assets within the meaning of Clause 2 par. 5 of the Regulation.
