PRESS RELEASE

LW BOGDANKA S.A. EXTRACTED MORE THAN 2.5 MILLION TONNES OF COAL IN THE FOURTH QUARTER OF 2015 AND IMPLEMENTED ITS ANNUAL PRODUCTION PLAN OF APPROX. 8.5 MILLION TONNES.

Lubelski Węgiel BOGDANKA S.A., the most advanced and efficient hard coal mine in Poland, produced 2.55 million tonnes of commercial coal in the fourth quarter of 2015, which is comparable to the level achieved in the fourth quarter of 2014 (2.56 million tonnes), which was a record-breaking year in this respect in the Company's history. The extraction achieved in the fourth quarter of 2015 is in line with this year's production schedule and much higher than in the previous quarters of 2015.
Thus, the Company completed the commercial coal production plan of approx. 8.5 million tonnes in 2015.

Zbigniew Stopa, President of the Management Board of LW BOGDANKA S.A.:
'We completed the fourth quarter with production at the level of 2.55 million tonnes, making full use of production capacity in this period. As a result, we ended the previous year with coal production at the level of 8.5 million tonnes, thereby fulfilling our promises made in the first half of the year. The full year production level was lower than our current production capacity. According to our assumptions, we adjusted the level of production to sales opportunities in 2015, which was influenced by a difficult market situation.'
