The buy-back programme was executed in compliance with Act on Public Limited Companies, No. 2/1995. In addition, the buy-back programme was implemented as provided for in the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council no. 596/2014, on market abuse, as well as the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 on regulatory technical standards for the conditions applicable to buy-back programmes and stabilisation measures, which supplements that Regulation.
