Plans to obtain financing through a contemplated bond issue or facilities agreement


The Management Board of Arctic Paper S.A. with its registered office in Poznań
(the "Company") informs that on 4 May 2016 decided to formally commence work in
connection with the refinancing of the Company's and its subsidiaries' existing
indebtedness arising under credit facility and loan agreements concluded thereby
and obtaining alternative financing (the "Financing") being considered by the
Company. The main aim of the actions of the Company's Management Board is
changing the structure of financing of the Company's capital group and, in
particular, its centralization facilitating more effective liquidity management
and flexible adjustment of the level of financing of the individual companies.

The Financing being considered envisages the procurement of funds through:

  · an issue or issues of bonds denominated in PLN, which the Company would
issue under the bonds issue programme for up to PLN 150,000,000 (the "Bonds
Issue Programme"); and/or
  · senior term and revolving facilities for up to EUR 85,700,000 and PLN
47,000,000, which would be granted to the Company by a group of banks and/or
credit institutions (the "Facilities"),

whereas the funds under the Financing being considered will be procured either
jointly under the Bonds Issue Programme and Facilities (in such case the amount
of the Facilities will be reduced accordingly by the value of the bonds issued
simultaneously with the procurement of funds under the Facilities under the
Bonds Issue Programme) or exclusively through the Facilities.

If the Financing is obtained, it will be necessary to establish appropriate
security and conclude additional agreements. The Management Board of the Company
is considering the possibility of security that is in line with market practice
in similar transactions, in particular a registered pledge or registered pledges
over a collection of moveables and property rights constituting the Company's
enterprise or an organized part thereof (the "Pledge").

In light of the foregoing, the Management Board of the Company will be taking
steps to convene an Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, which is necessary so that
the Pledge can be established.

The above-mentioned decision of the Management Board of the Company is a
preliminary decision and may change. In particular, the Management Board of the
Company may decide not to take some or all the steps mentioned above.
Additionally, the Management Board of the Company informs that it is in talks
with banks and/or credit institutions with regard to their participation in the
Financing, but at present no binding decision in the matter has been made.
