Independent Auditors’ Review Report on the Interim Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements for the 6 month period ended 30 June 2014

To the Supervisory Board of Arctic Paper S.A.

1. We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial
statements of Arctic Paper S.A. Capital Group (‘the Group’) where Arctic Paper
S.A. is the dominant entity (‘the Company’), and is located at at Jana Henryka
Dąbrowskiego 334A in Poznań, including the interim condensed consolidated
balance sheet as at 30 June 2014, the interim condensed consolidated income
statement, the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income,
the interim condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity, the interim
condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the period from 1 January 2014 to
30 June 2014 and other explanatory notes (‘the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements’).

2. The Company’s Management Board is responsible for the compliance of the
interim condensed consolidated financial statements’ with International
Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 “Interim financial reporting” as adopted by
the European Union (‘IAS 34’). Our responsibility was to issue a report on these
consolidated financial statements based, on our review.

3. We conducted our review in accordance with the provisions of the law binding
in Poland and national auditing standards issued by the National Council of
Statutory Auditors in Poland. These standards require that we plan and perform
our review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the consolidated financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The review was mainly based on
applying analytical procedures to the financial data, inspection of accounting
records and discussions with the management of the Company as well as its
employees. The scope (http://connect.ne.cision.com#_ftn1) of a review differs
significantly from an audit of financial statements, the objective of which is
to express an opinion on whether financial statements comply with the required
applicable accounting policies, and on the truth and
fairness (http://connect.ne.cision.com#_ftn2) of these financial statements.
Consequently, the review does not enable us to obtain sufficient assurance that
we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an
audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

4. Based on our review nothing has come to our attention that causes us to
believe that the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial
statements are not in accordance, in all material respects, with IAS 34.
