6. The Importance of Coal Coal is an essential raw material for a number of industries: Generation of electricity • 25% of primary energy is produced from coal • nearly 60% of electricity is produced from coal (lignite and bituminous) in CZ Production of steel, • 66% of global steel production is dependent on coke. Manufacturing process in the paper, cement, aluminium, chemical and pharmaceutical industries 6

7. OKD’s Investment Program Investment program comprises four areas: Mining equipment renewal, Personal equipment modernization, Mine infrastructure improvements, Coal reserves extension at existing operations. 7

8. OKD’s Investment Program Mining equipment renewal An initiative was launched in 2007 (POP 2010 – Productivity Optimization Program until 2010) to purchase new equipment sets worth CZK 8.5 billion in 2008 and 2009 for coal production and mine development activities. 8

9. OKD’s Investment Program 2. Miners equipment modernization About CZK 500 millionwill be spent to purchase new protective equipment for employees (clothing with reflecting stripes, water resistant boots, high capacity lamps, gas detecting devices, lighter self rescue filters etc). 9

14. Summary • OKD has demonstrated in the recent past, continues demonstrating it nowadays and - I am confident to say this- will also demonstrate in the future that coal mining under difficult geological conditions can be done successfully even in Europe. • OKD resumes commitment to all key stakeholders: • Employees in the field of work safety; • Community to build a mutually beneficial relationship; • Environment to minimize the impacts of mining activities; • Shareholders to create optimum value. • “There is plenty of bituminous coal left in the ground in the Czech Republic. OKD is committed to mine it for the benefits of the citizen of the Czech Republic” 14
