Resolution No. 2
of the Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders of "Netia Holdings" S.A.
dated February 19, 2001


concerning increasing the Company's share capital by issuing series H shares and excluding the pre-emptive rights of existing shareholders

  1. The Company's share capital is increased by up to PLN 2,145,138 (say: two million one hundred and forty five thousand, one hundred and thirty eight zlotys) i.e. up to PLN 190,660,170 (say: one hundred and ninety million, six hundred and sixty thousand, one hundred and seventy zlotys) by issuing up to 357,523 (say: three hundred and fifty seven thousand, five hundred and twenty three) ordinary bearer series H shares with a nominal value of PLN 6.00 (say: six zlotys) each.
  2. The series H shares are divided into two tranches:


    • I tranche of 133,233 (say: one hundred and thirty three thousand, two hundred and thirty three) series H shares,

    • II tranche of 224,290 (say: two hundred and twenty four thousand, two hundred and ninety) series H shares.


  3. Series H shares shall be offered to investors by way of a public subscription. The offer to acquire series H shares shall be made directly to Stoen S.A. and to Telia AB (publ.):
    • I tranche of series H shares shall be offered to Stoen S.A.;

    • II tranche of series H shares shall be offered to Telia AB (publ.).


  4. Series H shares may be subscribed for in cash.


  5. The Company's Management Board, subject to the Supervisory Board's final approval, is authorised to determine the detailed conditions of the subscription for series H shares and, in particular:
    1. to determine the issue price of series H shares in accordance with Article 11 and Article 20 of the Agreement of Current and Future Shareholders and Netia 1 dated November 22, 1999;

    2. to determine the time of the opening and closing of the subscription;

    3. to determine the detailed terms and conditions for the allocation and distribution of series H shares;

    4. to adopt a decision on the allocation of the series H shares.


  6. Series H shares shall participate in the dividend for 2001.

  7. The pre-emptive rights of the Existing Shareholders are waived with respect to the subscription for series H shares.
    The waiver of the pre-emptive right to subscribe for the newly issued shares results from the fact that the Company has to satisfy its obligation under Article 11 of the Agreement of Current and Future Shareholders and Netia 1 dated November 22, 1999 (the "Agreement") entered into, among others, between the Company, Stoen S.A. and Telia AB (publ.) and in connection with Stoen S.A.'s delivery of a notice that it elects to exercise its right to subscribe for the Company's shares in exchange for cash received from the Company as payment for the shares of Netia 1 Sp. z o.o. transferred to the Company, in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement, and furthermore, because of Telia AB (publ.) having the right to make an identical transaction on the basis of Article 20 of the Agreement. The Management Board shall not offer the II tranche series H shares if Telia AB (publ.) decides not to exercise its rights within the time provided in the Agreement.

  8. The Company's Management Board shall be authorised to withdraw, on the basis of redundancy thereof from offering all or a part of the series H shares designated for Stoen S.A. and/or for Telia AB (publ.), if such offering has become redundant, and to withdraw from public subscription, if the Management Board decides to change the terms and conditions of subscription and sale of series C and E shares subscribed for by a firm commitment underwriter, in order to perform the Company's incentive plans, on the basis of the prospectus made on 30 November 1999 ("Prospectus"), so that a part of the series C and E shares which are currently held by the firm commitment underwriter will be purchased by Stoen S.A. and/or Telia AB (publ) having the effect of full and complete performance of the Company's obligations under the Agreement.
    The General Shareholder's Meeting consents to the change of the terms and conditions of distribution of the series E and C shares so that they may be offered to Stoen S.A. and/or to Telia AB (publ.) and for the change of the Prospectus in the above respect, because the performance of the Company's obligations under the Agreement in the above described manner will be the least expensive for the Company and therefore, in the best interest of all the Company shareholders.
    The Company's Management Board is authorised, subject to approval by the Supervisory Board, and subject to obtaining the consent of the Securities and Exchange Commission, to change the Prospectus as necessary to perform this resolution.
