Key projects of mbank Group in In 2014, premiums in the field of direct business declined by 5.9% to PLN million compared to the year In bancassurance premiums amounted to PLN mln, which constituted an increase by 860.8% compared to The reported increase is mainly attributable to the insurance of repayment of mortgage as well as cash and vehicles loans (an increase of PLN 42.0 million respectively, 28.2% year on year). The increase was a result of the cessation of sales of these products through third party companies.

2 In 2014, in addition to the loan repayment insurance, the company's product range was expanded, among others, by online shopping insurance for individuals and PLUS Insurance for EURO-net sp. z o.o. customers. BRE Ubezpieczenia Group (including the results of BRE Agent Ubezpieczeniowy and BRE Ubezpieczenia for seven months of 2014) generated a gross profit of PLN 83.4 million, an increase of PLN 21.8 million in comparison to The improvement resulted mainly from a larger volume in the area of bancassurance and a strict cost management.

The value of contracts executed in 2014 reached PLN 3.2 billion, compared to PLN 2.4 billion in 2013 (+29.3% year on year). As demand increased in 2014, the sales grew year on year, mainly driven by an increase in the sales of vehicles, machinery and equipment.

3 The largest mortgage bank in Poland Focusing on financing of commercial projects, the public sector and individual clients, market analysis and advisory services for investors and operators of commercial real estate industry The largest issuer of covered bonds in Poland 73% market share; over PLN 3 billion securities outstanding The gross loan portfolio of mbank Hipoteczny (mbh) reached PLN 5.4 billion at the end of 2014 (+31.3% year on year). The change was driven by a steady increase in the portfolio of new mortgage loans for retail clients of mbank Group. In addition, in implementation of the Strategy, mbank Hipoteczny acquired ca. PLN 338 million (PLN 301 million retail loan pooling; PLN 37 million corporate loan pooling). In addition, the sales of commercial loans in 2014 displayed solid growth trajectory. In 2014, mbank Hipoteczny further increased its activity on the debt securities market. mbh placed eight series of covered bonds during the year. The total nominal value of covered bonds in issue reached PLN 1.0 billion. Consequently, mbh successfully achieved its target of issuing PLN 1.0 billion of mortgage bonds in It was the best year in the fifteen-year history of mbh as measured both by the number of issued series of covered bonds and their total value. The value of new covered bonds issued by mbh and the outstanding covered bonds on the market breached the mark of PLN 3 billion for the first time in history. The issue parameters of new series of covered bonds introduced to trading changed substantially. Earlier series denominated mainly in PLN had relatively short maturities as well as floating interest rates. Compared to the previous issues, the policy of the Bank was modified as its main function is to raise funding and to refinance long-term mortgage loans. The main focus is on narrowing the maturity gap of assets and liabilities, reducing the currency gap, and largely cutting the cost of new funding. In late February 2014, mbh issued its first series of 15-year EUR covered bonds. Their maturity is among the longest maturities of corporate debt ever issued by Polish issuers. The success of the issue was not a one-off event, as demonstrated by another two 15-year covered bond issues. Each following series met growing demand of foreign investors, as reflected in the growing nominal value of issued covered bonds, from EUR 8.0 million to EUR 20.0 million. Between July and August 2014, mbh issued two series of PLN covered bonds. The Bank was originally planning to issue up to PLN 200 million of HPA22 series covered bonds. Faced with strong interest from domestic financial market players, mbh decided to raise the nominal value of the HPA22 series to PLN 300 million and arranged an issue of the HPA23 series. As a result, mbank Hipoteczny raised PLN 500 million in total. This was the largest sale of covered bonds in the history of Poland s mortgage banking. To take advantage of the positive foreign investor sentiment, mbh raised another EUR 70 million in two transactions closed in Q The table which presents the mbh issues is included in chapter 6. mbank Group capital and funding. Compared to the previous issues, the success of the 2014 transactions should be seen in the context of the falling market rates and the extended maturity of the issued instruments resulting in a significant reduction of the cost of funding and a much better match of the maturities and currencies of the Bank s assets and liabilities. 3
