(“Company”, “Issuer”) hereby reports that on 24 August 2017 it obtained information from its subsidiary Advanced World Transport a.s. (“AWT”) that on 24 August 2017 the Meeting of Creditors of OKD a.s. (“OKD”, a company established under Czech law, a business partner of the Issuer’s subsidiaries AWT and AWT Rekultivace a.s. („AWTR”)) adopted the restructuring plan for OKD (“Plan”).

During the Meeting of Creditors, the representatives of AWT and AWTR voted for adopting the Plan.

Adoption of the Plan opens the possibility of further cooperation between the AWT Group and OKD, among others in respect to the provision of transport services and reclamation work. The restructuring process will prevent OKD’s bankruptcy, provided that the previous activity of OKD is phased out gradually.

The Plan will be subject to approval by the Regional Court in Ostrava, which the Company will announce in a separate Current Report
