Responsibility towards the market<br />
/ <strong>Corporate</strong> Governance<br />
/ Relations with the capital market<br />
The <strong>PKN</strong> ORLEN Management Board takes all reasonable<br />
efforts to ensure the observance of the principles<br />
of corporate governance in all aspects of the Company<br />
business. As a public company listed on the Warsaw<br />
Stock Exchange, <strong>PKN</strong> ORLEN observes all the principles<br />
recommended by the code of “Good Practices of Companies<br />
Listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.”<br />
The Company takes a number of measures to streamline<br />
communication with its environment. In order to reach<br />
a broad range of recipients we apply modern technologies<br />
of communication with representatives of the capital<br />
market. We organise live online transmissions of press<br />
conferences after each important event in the Company,<br />
such as the publication of quarterly results, announcement<br />
of strategy, or General Meetings of <strong>PKN</strong> ORLEN Shareholders,<br />
with simultaneous translation into English. Recordings<br />
of such transmissions, in the form of multimedia files, are<br />
available on our website: www.orlen.pl.<br />
Relations with the Company shareholders, potential inve stors<br />
in its securities and stock exchange analysts are a priority<br />
for the Management Board. The President, Vice President<br />
and Members of the Management Board are the main<br />
people contacting the capital market. In order to provide<br />
all interested parties with equal access to information,<br />
all information communicated outside of the Company’s<br />
official position is prepared in Polish and English. Such<br />
information is also published on the corporate website.<br />
