Motorway companies SAŚ

The Management Board of Stalexport SA informs that on 26th May it received the signed agreement concluded on 11th May 2004 between Stalexport SA, Stalexport Autostrada Dolnośląska S.A., Egis Projects S.A. (France) and NCC AB (Sweden) on the strength of which the change in the composition of the shareholding structure of the company Stalexport Autostrada Śląska will occur. In connection with the intention of NCC AB to withdraw from the company, the other shareholders gave consent to Strabag AG (Austria) to join the company. The shareholding structure of Stalexport Autostrada Śląska S.A. after carrying out the changes will be as follows:

• Stalexport Autostrada Dolnośląska S.A. 37.5% of capital and votes,
• Egis Projects S.A. 37.5% of capital and votes,
• Strabag AG 25.0% of capital and votes.

Strabag AG is an entity with big experience in the construction of motorways in Europe. Winning such a partner is important due to the participation of Stalexport Autostrada Dolnośląska S.A. in the ongoing tender for assigning the concession for the construction of the A-4 motorway on the Katowice-Wrocław section - by adapting it to the requirements of a toll motorway and its operation on this section.
