 This document constitutes the
prospectus (the Prospectus) in respect of fixed rate notes issued under Czech law in the anticipated total nominal amount of CZK 5,000,000,000 (in words: five billion Czech Koruna) with the possibility of increase of up to CZK 6,000,000,000
(in words: six billion Czech Koruna) due in 2024 (the Notes or the Issue), issued by SAZKA Group a.s., with its registered office at Vinohradská 1511/230, Strašnice, 100 00 Prague 10, Identification No.: 242 87 814, LEI:

 The Notes bear
a fixed interest rate as further described in the chapter Terms and Conditions of the Notes. The issue date of the notes is 23 September 2019 (the Issue Date). 

The issue price of all the Notes issued on the Issue Date is 100 per cent of their nominal amount. The issue price of any Notes issued after the Issue
Date will be determined by the Coordinator (as such term is defined below) upon agreement with the Issuer on the basis of current market conditions. If applicable, a corresponding pro-rata interest income will be added to the amount of the issue
price of any Notes issued after the Issue Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Joint Lead Manager (as such term is defined below) has any obligation to any Note investor to buy back any Notes. 

Unless redeemed early or purchased by the Issuer and cancelled as described below, the Notes will be redeemed in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the Notes (the Terms and Conditions) included in the chapter Terms and Conditions of the Notes on 23 September 2024 as the redemption date of the Notes. The Noteholders (as such term is defined in the Terms and Conditions) may
request early redemption of the Notes in accordance with the conditions contained in the chapter Terms and Conditions of the Notes provided that the Issuer breaches its obligations included therein or in cases where the law allows such early
redemption. The Issuer may, at its discretion, redeem the Notes early in accordance with the conditions contained in the chapter Terms and Conditions of the Notes. 

The Notes constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated debts of the Issuer which rank and will rank pari passu among themselves and at
least pari passu with any present and future unsubordinated and unsecured debts of the Issuer or secured at least in the same or similar manner in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, with the exception of debts treated preferentially
under applicable mandatory laws. 
 In all cases, payments under the Notes will be made in accordance with the laws applicable in the Czech Republic as at
the moment such payment is made. Where it is required by the laws of the Czech Republic applicable as at the moment a payment of nominal or interest is made, applicable tax and other fees will be withheld or deducted. If any deduction or withholding
is required at the time of such payment, the Issuer shall not be obligated to pay to the Noteholders any additional amounts. Subject to certain conditions, the Issuer is a taxpayer of a tax withheld or deducted from the interest on the Notes. For
further information, please see the chapter Taxation. 
 The investors should consider the risk factors in relation to the investment to the Notes.
The risk factors which the Issuer deems to be important are included in the chapter Risk Factors.

14 March 2019 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the format, content, scrutiny and approval of the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to
trading on a regulated market, and repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 809/2004 (Implementing Regulation). 
 The
distribution of the Prospectus and the offer, sale or purchase of the Notes may be restricted by law in certain jurisdictions. Neither the Prospectus nor the Notes will be allowed, approved or registered by any administrative authority or other
authority of any jurisdiction, with the exception of the CNB. In particular, the Notes will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the U.S. Securities Act) and therefore cannot be offered, sold or
transferred within the United States or to U.S. residents (as defined in Regulation S implementing the U.S. Securities Act) except pursuant to an exemption from the registration duty under the U.S. Securities Act or in transactions not subject to
registration under the U.S. Securities Act. The persons who get hold of the Prospectus are responsible for compliance with the restrictions applicable in individual states to the offer, purchase or sale of the Notes or the holding and distribution
of the Prospectus and any other materials relating to the Notes. 
 The potential Notes investors should make their own assessment as to the
suitability of investing in the Notes. The potential Notes investors must base their investment decision on the information contained in the Prospects as amended by any supplements. In the event of any discrepancies between the information contained
in the Prospects and in any supplements, the latest published information shall prevail. Any investment decision regarding the subscription of the Notes must be based only on the information contained in these documents as a whole and the conditions
of the offer, including individual assessment of the investment risk connected with the Notes by each potential investor. 
 Neither the Issuer nor
any of the Joint Lead Managers have authorised any representation or information regarding the Issuer or the Notes other than those contained in the Prospectus and any supplements. No such other representation or information may be relied on as
having been authorised by the Issuer or the Joint Lead Managers. Unless stated otherwise, all information contained in the Prospectus is valid as of the date of the Prospectus. The delivery of the Prospectus after the date of the Prospectus does not
mean that the information contained in the Prospectus is correct after the date of the Prospectus. 
 The Issuer, the Joint Lead Managers or any of
their successors do not make any representation to any addressee of the offer or purchaser of the Notes regarding the lawfulness of the investment of such addressee or purchaser in accordance with the relevant investment or other laws. Each investor
should consult with its advisors the legal, tax, commercial, financial and other relevant aspects of the purchase of the Notes. No Joint Lead Manager has independently verified the information contained in the Prospectus. Therefore, none of the
Joint Lead Managers makes any explicit or implicit representation or warranty or accepts any responsibility or liability as to the accuracy or completeness of the information contained or incorporated in the Prospectus or any other information
provided by the Issuer in connection with the Issue. The Joint Lead Managers do not assume any liability in relation to the information contained or incorporated in the Prospectus or any other information provided by the Issuer in connection with
the offer or distribution of the Notes. The Joint Lead Managers expressly represent that they do not undertake to review the financial condition or affairs of the Issuer during the validity of the Notes or to provide any investor in the Notes with
any information coming to their attention. 
 Information contained in the chapters Taxation and Enforcement of Civil Liabilities Against the Issuer
are of a general nature and they do not represent an exhaustive overview. The information in these chapters is based on the facts as of the date of the Prospects and they have been obtained from publicly available sources that have not been
processed or independently verified by the Issuer. The potential Notes investors should rely only on their own analysis of factors mentioned in these chapters and on their own tax, legal and other advisors. Potential foreign purchasers of the Notes
are advised to consult their legal and other advisors on the provisions of the relevant laws, in particular the foreign exchange and tax regulations of the Czech Republic, the countries of their residence and other potentially relevant countries,
and any relevant international agreements and the impact of such regulations and agreements on specific investment decisions. 
 The Noteholders,
including any foreign investors, are hereby encouraged to keep up to date with all laws and regulations governing the possession of the Notes, as well as the sale of the Notes abroad or the purchase of the Notes from abroad, as well as any other
transactions concerning the Notes, and to comply with these laws and regulations. 
 The Prospectus, any supplements to the Prospectus and other
published documents are available electronically on the website of the Issuer https://www.sazkagroup.com/investors/offering-documents and also for inspection during regular business hours from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. CET at the registered office of the
Issuer at Vinohradská 1511/230, Strašnice, 100 00 Prague 10. 
 As long as any part of the Notes remains unpaid, a copy of the Agency
Agreement (as such term is defined in the Terms and Conditions) will be available for inspection at the Specified Office (as such term is defined in the Terms and Conditions) upon request during normal business hours from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. CET. For
further information please see the chapter Terms and Conditions of the Notes. 
 Any assumptions and outlooks regarding the Issuer’s future
development, financial position, business or market position cannot be construed as a representation or binding promise of the Issuer regarding future events or results, as such future events or results depend in whole or in part on circumstances
and events that the Issuer cannot directly or fully control. Potential Notes investors should undertake their own analysis of any development trends or outlooks contained in the Prospectus, and make other separate investigations, and base their
investment decisions on the results of such separate analyses and investigations.

 Unless otherwise stated below, all the Issuer’s financial information is based on the International
Financial Reporting Standards as approved by the European Union that are consistently applied (IFRS). Copies of the financial statements and audit reports incorporated in the Prospectus by reference are available free of charge
for inspection during normal business hours from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. CET at the Issuer’s registered office. Some of the figures in the Prospectus have been adjusted by rounding. Therefore, the values reported for the same information item may vary
slightly from one table to another and the values presented as sums in some tables may not be the arithmetic sum of the values on which they are based. 

If this Prospectus is translated into another language, the Czech version of the Prospectus shall prevail in case of any discrepancies between the wording
of the Prospectus in Czech and the wording of the translated Prospectus. 
 The information contained on the websites’ hyperlinks included in
the Prospectus, with the exception of the information in the chapter Information Incorporated by Reference, is not part of the Prospectus and therefore has not been verified or approved by the CNB.

	2.3	 Aké sú kľúčové riziká špecifické pre Emitenta?

  

			
	 Kľúčové riziká

špecifické pre Emitenta
	  	 Rizikové faktory vzťahujúce sa na Emitenta a ďalšie spoločnosti Skupiny SAZKA Group, ktorej je Emitent
súčasťou, zahrňujú predovšetkým nasledujúce potenciálne skutočnosti:
  

1. Skupina SAZKA Group je vystavená rizikám, ktoré sa vzťahujú k prípadným zmenám alebo
sprísneniu právneho rámca v krajinách, v ktorých pôsobí – Sektor lotérii a hier je v jednotlivých krajinách významne regulovaný. Príslušné
úrady jednotlivých štátov majú právo jednostranne zmeniť právny a regulačný rámec upravujúci herné plány hier, ktoré spoločnosti zo Skupiny SAZKA
Group ponúkajú. Spoločnosti Skupiny SAZKA Group musia mať k prevádzke lotérii a hier licencie, ktoré sú udeľované na určitú dobu. Napriek tomu, že Skupina SAZKA Group
usiluje o udržanie a expanziu aktivít v segmente online lotérii a hier, nejde zaručiť, že žiadostiam o vydanie nových licencií bude príslušným úradom vyhovené,
prípadne môže dôjsť k zamietnutiu žiadosti o ich predĺženie.
  

2. Skupina SAZKA Group je vystavená riziku potenciálnych strát práv na prevádzku lotérii a športových
stávkových hier alebo potenciálnych zmien licencií a koncesií – Napríklad vo vzťahu k jej podnikateľskej činnosti v Taliansku, tamojší regulatórny orgán
poskytol koncesiu k prevádzke hazardných hier na základe koncesnej zmluvy. Podľa tejto zmluvy môže regulátor kedykoľvek v dobe platnosti koncesie podľa svojho uváženia pozastaviť
možnosť ponúkať príslušné hry, a za určitých podmienok koncesiu odobrať či ju nechať prepadnúť. Aj v ďalších krajinách môže
dôjsť v prípade nesplnenia regulatórnych povinností k uloženiu sankcií, odobraniu licencií či ukončeniu koncesií, čo by viedlo až k nutnosti ukončenia
prevádzkovanej obchodnej činnosti.
  
 3. Väčšina
výnosov Skupiny SAZKA Group pochádza z hier s fixnými výhrami, ktoré sú náchylnejšie k nižším maržám než hry s premenlivými výhrami – Hry
s fixnými výhrami (napr. numerické lotérie, stieracie losy) sú v porovnaní s hrami s premenlivými výhrami (napr. dostihové stávky) náchylnejšie k
nákladovému tlaku a zníženým maržám, v prípade, že dôjde k poklesu objemu ich predaje. U hier s fixnou výhrou je totiž výška výhry vyjadrená
percentom z hodnoty žrebov/losov vydaných k predaju bez ohľadu na to, koľko sa ich skutočne predá. Výška marže u hier s fixnou výhrou tak závisí na objeme predajov a na tom,
či výherné čísla zodpovedajú číslam na skutočne predaných žreboch/losoch. V prípade, že nie sú predané všetky vydané žreby/losy, čelia
spoločnosti Skupiny SAZKA Group riziku, že hodnota výhry môže činiť významnou časť súhrnnej hodnoty predaných žrebov/losov alebo ju dokonca môže
prekročiť.
  
 4. Skupina SAZKA Group má významné
dlhové záväzky a je viazaná reštriktívnymi dlhovými zmluvami – Všetky tieto obmedzenia podliehajú výnimkám a výhradám. Zmluvy, ktoré
zaväzujú spoločnosti Skupiny SAZKA Group, môžu obmedziť ich schopnosť financovať svoje budúce činnosti a kapitálové potreby, využívať obchodné
príležitosti a vykonávať činnosti, ktoré môžu byť v ich záujme.
  

5. Emitent je holdingovou spoločnosťou a je závislý na platbách od spoločností Skupiny SAZKA Group, aby mohol
dodržať svoje záväzky z Dlhopisov. Tieto spoločnosti nemusia mať povolené, alebo nemusia byť schopné, platby Emitentovi poskytnúť – Tieto platby dosahovali v roku 2017 a 2018
takmer 100 % príjmov Emitenta. Schopnosť poskytovať finančné prostriedky Emitentovi pritom podlieha, mimo iné, miestnym daňovým obmedzeniam a miestnym obmedzeniam korporátného
práva týkajúcim sa zárobkom, úrovni zákonných alebo štatutárnych rezerv, strate z minulých rokov, požiadavkám na kapitál pre spoločnosti Skupiny SAZKA Group,
a taktiež podmienkam príslušných akcionárskych zmlúv. Navyše môžu vybrané ustanovenia finančnej dokumentácie upravujúce príslušné dlhové
záväzky spoločností Skupiny SAZKA Group tieto výplaty obmedziť či zakázať.

		  	  
 6. Skupina SAZKA Group je vystavená riziku v
krajinách, kde pôsobí (s ohľadom na sídlo Emitenta a spoločností Skupiny SAZKA Group), a taktiež aj v krajinách, kde Skupina SAZKA Group vyvíja svoju obchodnú
činnosť – Významným faktorom v hodnotení rizika schopnosti krajiny dodržať svoje budúce záväzky je jej ratingové hodnotenie. Nie je možné zaručiť,
že si jednotlivé krajiny svoj aktuálny rating udržia a že nedôjde k jeho zhoršeniu. Prípadné zníženie ratingu môže poukazovať na nepriaznivý vývoj
národnej ekonomiky, jej predpokladaný hospodárky rast, zníženie disponibilných príjmov domácností a s tým spojeného zníženia výdajov
domácností na aktivity v oblasti lotérií a stávok.
  

7. Skupine SAZKA Group by mohla vzniknúť povinnosť platiť nepredvídateľné dane, daňové penále a
zvláštne odvody a poplatky v súvislosti s novými daňovými povinnosťami – V Českej republike sa v súčasnosti uvažuje o zvýšení sadzieb daní z
hazardných hier a zrušení oslobodenia od dane z príjmu pre fyzické osoby, pokiaľ výška výhry z príslušnej hry presahuje 100.000 Kč. Na Cypre zase Skupine SAZKA Group
hrozí zavedenie dodatočného zavedenia daňovej záťaže na udelenú koncesiu k prevádzke hier.
  

8. Skupina SAZKA Group je ovplyvnená rizikom možného úniku dát – Všetky spoločnosti Skupiny SAZKA Group
podliehajú regulácii spojenej s užívaním osobných dát, ktoré získavajú od hráčov. Pričom pri prevádzke používajú tretie strany,
ktorým osobné dáta predávajú. Za porušenie príslušnej regulácie hrozia sankcie až do výšky 4 % z celkového obratu spoločností Skupiny SAZKA Group a
tých ďalších spoločností, ktoré sú kontrolované jednou osobou a povinnosť uhradiť súvisiace civilné nároky.

 
 9. Schopnosť Skupiny SAZKA Group získavať prístup k
úverovým a dlhopisovým trhom a jej schopnosť získať dodatočné financovanie je čiastočne závislá na ratingu Emitenta, a to najmä v dôsledku dobrovoľnej ponuky
prevzatia OPAP – V dôsledku ohlásenia Dobrovoľnej ponuky prevzatia došlo ku zmene výhľadu v ratingu S&P Global Ratings Europe Limited (S&P) z BB- pozitívny na BB- negatívny.
Zníženie ratingu by malo zásadný vplyv na schopnosť získať dodatočné financovanie za obchodne rozumných podmienok.

 
 Vyššie uvedené riziká môžu mať
zásadný negatívny vplyv na finančnú a ekonomickú situáciu Emitenta a
  

spoločností Skupiny SAZKA Group, respektíve na ich podnikateľskú činnosť. To vo svojom dôsledku môže
podstatne zhoršiť schopnosť Emitenta plniť si svoje záväzky z Dlhopisov.

	3	 KĽÚČOVÉ INFORMÁCIE O DLHOPISOCH 

 

	3.1	 Aké sú hlavné charakteristiky cenných papierov? 

 

			
	Dlhopisy	  	 Zaknihované dlhopisy s pevným úrokovým výnosom vo výške 5,20 %, v predpokladanej celkovej
menovitej hodnote Emisie do 5.000.000.000 Kč s možným navýšením menovitej hodnoty až do výšky 6.000.000.000 Kč, splatné v roku 2024, ISIN CZ0003522930. Každý z Dlhopisov je
vydávaný v menovitej hodnote 10.000 Kč. Maximálny počet Dlhopisov, ktoré môžu byť vydané, je 500.000 kusov v prípade, že celková menovitá hodnota Emisie

 Dátum emisie je 23. septembra 2019. Dňom konečnej splatnosti dlhopisov
je 23. september 2024.
  
 Dlhopisy sú vydávané podľa
Zákona o dlhopisoch.

		
	Mena Dlhopisov	  	Koruna česká (CZK)
		
	 Popis práv spojených
 s
Dlhopismi
	  	 Práva a povinnosti Emitenta a Vlastníkov dlhopisov plynúce z Dlhopisov upravujú Emisné podmienky.

 
 S Dlhopismi nie sú spojené žiadne predkupné ani
výmenné práva. S Dlhopismi je spojené najmä právo na výplatu menovitej hodnoty ku Dňu konečnej splatnosti dlhopisov a právo na výnos z Dlhopisov. Pokiaľ nedôjde k
predčasnému splateniu Dlhopisov alebo k odkúpeniu Dlhopisov Emitentom a ich zániku, bude menovitá hodnota Dlhopisov splatená jednorázovo.

 
 S Dlhopismi je tiež spojené právo účastniť sa a
hlasovať na schôdzach Vlastníkov dlhopisov v prípadoch, kedy je takáto schôdza zvolaná v súlade so Zákonom o dlhopisoch a Emisnými podmienkami.

 
 Schôdza Vlastníkov dlhopisov môže uznesením zvoliť
fyzickú alebo právnickú osobu za spoločného zástupcu a poveriť ho v súlade s právnymi predpismi spoločným uplatnením práv pred súdom alebo pred iným
orgánom alebo kontrolou plnenia Emisných podmienok Dlhopisov.
  
 S
Dlhopismi je ďalej spojené právo žiadať predčasné splatenie Dlhopisov v prípade, že nedôjde ku vzniku Dodatočného zabezpečenia najneskôr spoločne s
poskytnutím zabezpečenia Zabezpečeným veriteľom, pokiaľ došlo ku vzniku Zabezpečeného financovania k Dátumu emisie alebo neskôr do úplného splatenia záväzkov z
Dlhopisov, dôjde ku Zmene ovládania, nastane a trvá Prípad porušenia a v prípade hlasovania proti Zmene zásadnej povahy na schôdzi Vlastníkov dlhopisov.

 
 Počínajúc uplynutím dvoch rokov od Dátumu emisie
(vrátane) má Emitent právo predčasne splatiť všetky doposiaľ nesplatené Dlhopisy (čiastočne alebo úplne), pričom toto právo môže uplatniť len, ak to
oznámi Vlastníkom dlhopisov najneskôr 37 dní pred príslušným dňom predčasnej splatnosti. Čiastočné splatenie Dlhopisov môže Emitent vykonať len ku Dňu
predčasnej splatnosti, ktorý bude Dátumom výplaty úrokov. Emitent môže splatiť celú nesplatenú menovitú hodnotu Dlhopisov, alebo jej časť, príslušný
úrokový výnos pripadajúci na výšku predčasne splatenej menovitej hodnoty Dlhopisov ku Dňu predčasnej splatnosti, a mimoriadny úrokový výnos, ktorý bude
určený ako 1/60 ročnej Úrokovej sadzby pripadajúcej na celkovú čiastku predčasného splatenia menovitej hodnoty Dlhopisov násobenej počtom celých mesiacov, ktoré od
príslušného Dňa predčasnej splatnosti zostávajú do Dňa konečnej splatnosti dlhopisov, pričom počet celých mesiacov bude zaokrúhlený smerom nadol.

		
	 Poradie prednosti Dlhopisov
 v
prípade platobnej neschopnosti Emitenta
	  	Dlhopisy zakladajú priame, všeobecné, nepodmienené a nepodriadené dlhy Emitenta, ktoré sú a budú čo do poradia svojho uspokojenia rovnocenné (pari passu) ako
medzi sebou navzájom, tak aj aspoň rovnocenné voči všetkým ďalším súčasným aj budúcim nepodriadeným a nezabezpečeným záväzkom Emitenta
alebo aspoň rovnakým alebo obdobným spôsobom zabezpečeným v budúcnosti v súlade s emisnými podmienkami Dlhopisov, s výnimkou tých záväzkov Emitenta, u ktorých
stanovia inak kogentné ustanovenia právnych predpisov.
		
	Prevoditeľnosť Dlhopisov	  	Prevoditeľnosť Dlhopisov nie je obmedzená, avšak pokiaľ to nebude odporovať platným právnym predpisom, môžu byť v súlade s Emisnými podmienkami prevody
pozastavené.
		
	Výnos Dlhopisov	  	 Dlhopisy sú úročené pevnou úrokovou sadzbou vo výške 5,20 % p.a.

 
 Úrokové výnosy budú vyplácané za
každé Výnosové obdobie polročne spätne, vždy k 23. marcu a k 23. septembru každého roka. Prvým Dňom výplaty úrokov je 23. marec 2020.

  

	3.2	 Kde budú Dlhopisy obchodované? 

 

			
	Prijatie Dlhopisov na regulovaný či iný trh	  	Emitent prostredníctvom Kotačného agenta požiada o prijatie Dlhopisov k obchodovaniu na Regulovanom trhu BCPP a predpokladá, že Dlhopisy budú prijaté k obchodovaniu k Dátumu
emisie.

  

	3.3	 Aké sú kľúčové riziká, ktoré sú
špecifické pre Dlhopisy? 

  

			
	Kľúčové riziká špecifické pre Dlhopisy	  	 Rizikové faktory vzťahujúce sa k Dlhopisom zahrňujú predovšetkým nasledujúce právne
a iné skutočnosti:
  
 2. Riziko, že Dodatočné
zabezpečenie nevznikne – Prípadné Dodatočné zabezpečenie vznikne až po Dátume emisie, ak dôjde ku vzniku povinnosti Emitenta toto Dodatočné zabezpečenie zriadiť
alebo nechať zriadiť. Pokiaľ by k jeho vzniku nedošlo a Vlastníci dlhopisov by v dôsledku toho požadovali predčasné splatenie Dlhopisov, budú v horšom postavení než v
prípade, že by Dlhopisy boli zaistené, pretože môže existovať riziko, že Emitent nebude schopný v danom čase uhradiť záväzky z Dlhopisov.

  
 11/123 

			
	 
 

    
 

 
	  	 3. Práva Vlastníkov dlhopisov môžu byť negatívne ovplyvnené nesplnením podmienok pre
vznik Dodatočného zabezpečenia alebo tým, že poskytovatelia zabezpečenia nie sú vlastníkmi Predmetov zabezpečenia – Právne predpisy vyžadujú, aby v prípade
určitých predmetov zabezpečenia poskytovateľ alebo príjemca zaistenia splnili určité zákonné požiadavky. Agent pre zabezpečenie, ak bude menovaný, nie je povinný
sledovať, či boli splnené. Nesplnenie zákonných požiadaviek pre vznik Dodatočného zabezpečenia môže spôsobiť stratu Dodatočného zabezpečenia alebo priority
Dodatočného zabezpečenia vo vzťahu k tretím osobám.
  

4. Schopnosť Vlastníkov dlhopisov uspokojiť sa z Dodatočného zabezpečenia môže byť obmedzená
– Prípadné Dodatočné zabezpečenie Dlhopisov podlieha výnimkám, ťarchám, záložným právam a akýmkoľvek ďalším iným
právnym vadám povoleným podľa Emisných podmienok či Medziveriteľskej dohody. Ich existencia môže mať nepriaznivý dopad na hodnotu Dodatočného zabezpečenia alebo na
jeho výkon.
  
 5. Riziko nesplatenia a riziká spojené s
prípadným odkupom Dlhopisov Emitentom – Dlhopisy rovnako ako akýkoľvek iný peňažný záväzok podliehajú riziku nesplatenia.

 
 6. Riziko úrokovej sadzby z Dlhopisov – Vlastník dlhopisu s
pevnou úrokovou sadzbou je vystavený riziku poklesu ceny takého Dlhopisu v dôsledku zmeny tržných úrokových sadzieb. Kým je nominálna úroková sadzba po dobu existencie
Dlhopisov fixovaná, aktuálna úroková sadzba na kapitálovom trhu sa mení.
  

7. Riziko úplného nebo čiastočného predčasného splatenia – Pokiaľ dôjde k
úplnému alebo čiastočnému predčasnému splateniu Dlhopisov vrátane prípadov, kedy k tomu dôjde bez súhlasu konkrétneho Vlastníka dlhopisov, v súlade s
Emisnými podmienkami pred dátumom ich splatnosti, je vlastník Dlhopisov vystavený riziku nižšieho než predpokladaného výnosu z dôvodu takého predčasného splatenia.

 
 Vyššie uvedené riziká môžu mať
zásadný negatívny dopad na výnos investora z Dlhopisov. Pokiaľ by sa niektoré z uvedených rizík realizovalo, môže dokonca dôjsť k tomu, že investorovi do Dlhopisov bude
vrátená len časť menovitej hodnoty alebo o svoju investíciu celkom príde.

 Risk factors are ranked in the individual categories and sub-categories from the most to the least significant. 

Capitalised terms used below shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Terms and Conditions or any other part of the Prospectus. 

 

	1	 Risk Factors Related to the Issuer 

From the Issuer’s perspective, there are the following main risk factors that may adversely impact its financial and economic standing, business and
ability to meet its debts arising from the Notes: 
 Regulation, Government Policy and Legal Risks 

The SAZKA Group is exposed to risks related to the potential changes in, or tightening of, the legislative and regulatory framework in the countries that
the SAZKA Group operates in 
 The sector of lotteries and games is subject to significant regulation in the individual countries. The competent
authorities in the individual countries have the right to change unilaterally the legal and regulatory framework governing the game plans of the games offered by the SAZKA Group companies. 

The changes in the individual countries currently focus on developments in the area of regulating the online lottery and gaming market. The introduction of
such regulation implies the need to obtain licences for operating online lotteries and games. Despite the fact that the SAZKA Group seeks to expand its activities in the online lottery and gaming segment, it is impossible to guarantee that the
applications of the SAZKA Group companies for a new a licence will be granted by the competent authorities or that any existing licences will be renewed or not suspended by the competent authorities. There will soon expire in the Czech Republic the
licence for numerical lotteries and lotteries (December 2022), for technical games (November 2023), odds betting (December 2024) and TOTO Sazka and SAZKAMOBIL šance games (January 2023), in Italy the exclusive licence for the operation of a
lottery (November 2025), in Greece the licence for the operation of instant lotteries (2026), and in Austria the licence for the operation of casinos (2027). The SAZKA Group also faces the risk that the regulatory changes may open the market to
broader competition, much like in the case of the Gambling Act, which opened the gaming market in the Czech Republic to foreign operators from 1 January 2017. 

Furthermore, the Cyprus-based company OPAP CYPRUS LTD, a subsidiary of Hellenic Football Prognostic Organization S.A. (OPAP), operates its business on
the basis of a 2003 bilateral agreement between the Republic of Cyprus and the Hellenic Republic, which may be terminated by either state upon prior notification to the other state with a 12 months’ notice. In addition to this possibility of
terminating 

  
 15/123 

 the operation, the Cypriot Parliament has passed a law on certain gaming, under which a Special Committee
will conduct a concession procedure and submit to the Minister of Finance a proposal to select a suitable operator to be granted an exclusive non-transferable licence to offer some numerical games in Cyprus. This Committee will first proceed to
assess the suitability of the current operator, i.e. OPAP CYPRUS LTD. If it concludes that it is not a suitable candidate for the exclusive licence, the Committee shall request the expression of interest of up to five other candidates. Licenced
games include: numerical lotteries and sportsbook games based on the exact result of a combination of sports event results. 
 Termination or non-renewal of
the licence would have a significant impact on the operational activities of the respective the SAZKA Group companies, which would subsequently not be able to perform the relevant gaming or lottery activities. The impact of the discontinuing
operations of the SAZKA Group companies could have a materially negative impact on the Issuer’s income and consequently on its ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

The SAZKA Group is exposed to the risk of potentially losing the rights to operating lotteries and sports betting or of potential changes in the licences
and concessions 
 The products and business activities of the SAZKA Group companies are subject to mandatory licences/concessions. 

The competent Italian regulatory authority granted a concession to Lottoitalia S.r.l. (LOTTOITALIA) from the SAZKA Group under a concession contract.
Pursuant to that contract, the regulatory authority may at any time, at its discretion, suspend the concession or the option of LOTTOITALIA to offer the relevant games. Furthermore, the contract authorises the regulator to require any modification
in the operation of games under unforeseen events that would make it necessary to make such changes, and may also withdraw or forfeit the concession if LOTTOITALIA fails to comply with its obligations under the concession contract or applicable
laws. 
 In other countries where the SAZKA Group companies operate, they must comply with applicable regulatory obligations and applicable laws. The
competent authorities may impose penalties on those companies for any breach of their obligations under licences, non-payment of taxes or other charges, including suspension or withdrawal of the relevant licence or concession. 

The loss of the rights to provide the services and products within the portfolio of the SAZKA Group companies would have a highly negative impact on the
consolidated revenue of the Issuer and, in general, on the business and operating profit of the SAZKA Group and thus on the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

The SAZKA Group may become exposed to the obligation to pay unforeseeable taxes, tax penalties and special levies and charges in connection with new tax
obligations 
 As of 1 January 2020, the Government of the Czech Republic proposes to increase gaming tax rates by amending Act No. 187/2016
Coll., on Tax on Gambling. The Government’s bill passed the first reading in the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic and it cannot be ruled out that an increase in gaming tax rates will indeed occur. The bill provides for an increase in
the partial tax bases so that the tax rate for the partial tax base for odds betting, totaliser games, raffles and small-scale tournaments is increased from 23% to 25% and the tax rate for the partial tax base for lotteries, bingos and live games is
increased from 23% to 30%. If this change is accepted, it can be assumed that the tax burden on SAZKA a.s. (SAZKA) will increase, which may result in a decrease in the SAZKA Group’s revenues due to the higher tax burden. 

The Government of the Czech Republic also proposes abolishing the tax exemption for natural persons as of 1 January 2020 if the amount of gambling
winnings exceeds CZK 100,000. The Government’s bill passed the first reading in the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic and it cannot be ruled out that the exemption from tax on winnings will indeed be abolished as of January 2020. This
legislative change will adversely affect players, who will have to pay tax on winnings above CZK 100,000, which may reduce their willingness to bet and thus reduce their number. Since the proposed change applies to individual winnings, it is also
possible to assume that players will reduce their stakes in the game so that any winnings do not exceed CZK 100,000 and thus do not incur any obligation to pay tax on the winnings. As a result of this behaviour of players, the total amount of odds
betting may be reduced, thereby reducing the revenues of the SAZKA Group. 

  
 16/123 

 If a concession is granted to OPAP CYPRUS LTD to operate games, as described in more detail in the risk
factor The SAZKA Group is exposed to risks related to possible changes or tightening of the legal and regulatory framework in the countries in which it operates, the SAZKA Group expects that there will be an increase in taxes or levies that
OPAP CYPRUS LTD will have to pay to the Republic of Cyprus. The final amount is still subject to decision; nevertheless, the Issuer anticipates an increase in the company’s tax burden. 

The SAZKA Group is a party to litigations with a potentially adverse impact 

The companies within the SAZKA Group are parties to various litigations and arbitrations. In addition to the potential financial risk that the SAZKA Group
companies may face in relation to these proceedings, the success or loss in these proceedings may have a material impact on the SAZKA Group companies’ ability to do business, their reputation and the relations with their customers or suppliers,
who may discontinue their business with the SAZKA Group. 
 The Issuer currently considers the following judicial proceedings to be the most significant:

  

	 	•	 	 Action for annulment of an agreement on the sale of a business, filed on 24 November 2011 by a natural
person in the Czech Republic, challenging the validity of the agreement on the sale of SAZKA, a.s., in bankruptcy (Company ID No.: 47116307, now SALEZA a.s.); 

 

	 	•	 	 Action for compensation for a loss of profit of approximately EUR 9 million plus interest, totalling
approximately EUR 13.5 million for the period June 2006 to December 2011, brought by a former agent against OPAP; 

  

	 	•	 	 314 litigation cases, initiated by the former agents of OPAP before the court of first instance in Athens
concerning the invalidity of the termination of the contracts with these agents. The total amount claimed is approximately EUR 163.7 million. Although the court of first instance in Athens has so far issued 4 judgments in favour of OPAP, dismissing
the petitioners’ actions for the invalidity of the termination of their contracts, the Issuer cannot guarantee that the other proceedings will have a similar result. 

If the SAZKA Group companies are not successful in the litigations or are unable to create sufficient provisions or assess the likely outcome of any
proceedings, it may have a material adverse impact on the business, financial standing, profit, cash flow and outlooks of the SAZKA Group companies as well as the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

Operational Risks 
 Most SAZKA Group revenues
come from games with fixed winnings, which are prone to lower margins than games with variable winnings. 
 In comparison with games with variable
winnings (e.g. horse racing bets), fixed-winnings games are more susceptible to cost pressure and reduced margins if the volume of their sales drops. This is because the amount of the fixed winnings is expressed as a percentage of the value of
betting slips/tickets issued for sale regardless of the number actually sold. The margin for games with fixed-rate winnings depends on whether the winning numbers correspond to the numbers on the betting slips/tickets actually sold. 

In the case where all the betting slips/tickets are not sold the SAZKA Group companies face the risk that the amount of the winning may form a significant
part of, or even exceed, the overall value of the betting slips/tickets sold. Circumstances resulting in the decrease in the sales of the betting slips/tickets of the SAZKA Group companies for games with a fixed-rate margin and thus in the decrease
of the revenues from these games may materially and adversely affect the profit and financial position of the SAZKA Group as a whole and thus the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

  
 17/123 

 Fixed costs represent a significant part of the SAZKA Group’s costs and reduced earnings can have a
material impact on the profitability of the SAZKA Group 
 Fixed costs represent a significant part of the SAZKA Group’s overall costs. Except
commissions to the distribution network, marketing costs, lottery and corporate tax, which all represent variable cost, the other costs (especially the cost of IT, rent, personnel costs, depreciation/amortization and interest expenses) are of a
fixed or semi-fixed nature and reached 37% of the Issuer’s total consolidated costs in 2018. A decrease in the earnings for any reason will thus significantly impact the operating profit because the SAZKA Group companies will be unable to
respond flexibly by reducing costs in this regard. This fact will affect the business activities, financial standing, and results of the SAZKA Group companies and thus the Issuer’s ability to meet its obligations under the Notes duly and in
time. 
 The SAZKA Group is exposed to the risk of potential data leaks 

The SAZKA Group companies are subject to regulation in connection with the use of the customers’ personal data and since they work with the clients’
personal data (e.g. name, address, date of birth, banking details, debit or credit card data, gaming history), the relevant business activities must comply with the data protection rules of the individual countries and of the EU including rules for
the protection of the winners’ identity. 
 The SAZKA Group companies also depend on the contractual relationships with third parties as well as their
own employees who control the personal data databases. Although the SAZKA Group companies acknowledge the risks arising from the potential loss of these data and closely monitor compliance with the data protection rules to protect them in order to
minimise the risk of any data leaks, failure in the area of personal data protection cannot be ruled out. 
 Should personal data leak due to a human error
of one of the employees or suppliers handling the selected personal data of players, or for other reasons, occur the individual the SAZKA Group companies would be at risk, under Article 83 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and
of the Council (GDPR), of a fine of up to 4 % of the total turnover of those SAZKA Group companies and other companies that had unified control at the time of the infringement and are considered an undertaking under Article 101 of the
TFEU, and of associated civil claims of individual players affected by the data leak. 
 Should any of the SAZKA Group companies commit an error and
subsequently be given a fine or be ordered to pay civil claims, the Issuer believes that this would have a significant negative impact on the SAZKA Group companies’ reputation and, at the same time, this financial penalty could have a material
impact on the financial situation, operating profit and the economic result of the SAZKA Group companies and thus the Issuer’s ability to duly fulfil its obligations under the Notes. 

The SAZKA Group depends on a limited number of suppliers 

The equipment required for running games and products and the associated specialised personnel are often provided to the entities within the SAZKA Group by a
limited number of suppliers. For example, the SAZKA Group uses the services of a narrow group of suppliers to operate the hardware and software, supply the technologies for creating and maintaining a functional technological platform that enables
electronic betting via electronic media (mobile phones, computers, tablets, etc.) as well as live betting via the Group’s retail network. The SAZKA Group is thus dependent on these suppliers to a significant degree, and their failure to meet
their obligations may have an adverse effect on the SAZKA Group’s activities and, consequently, on the Issuer’s ability to meet its obligations under the Notes duly and in time. 

The SAZKA Group as part of the lottery and gaming industry faces the negative impact of the illegal market 

The business activities of the SAZKA Group are affected by the existence of, and competition from, the illegal gaming market which is not subject to regulation
by the individual countries that the SAZKA Group operates in. The illegal market offers alternatives to standard lottery products as well as online products in the language of the country where they are operated. Illegal activities also occur in the
sports betting market. According to estimates by H2 Gambling Capital in April 2019, the share of the illegal online market in the total online market was 7% in the Czech Republic, 42% in Austria, 23% in Greece and 6% in Italy. In addition, there are
illicit actions by both the providers of the lottery and gaming services and by the 

  
 18/123 

 customers. The segment of lottery and gaming services are also adversely affected by the risk of illegal
financial operations such as money laundering. The SAZKA Group is aware of these aspects and acts in accordance with all the regulations and policies existing with regard to the risks specified above. While the SAZKA Group monitors the potential
adverse aspects of the illegal financial activities and observes and applies anti-money laundering policies, it is impossible to guarantee that the rules and measures in place will be effective and successful. Moreover, the individual countries seek
to implement new legal measures with regard to the state and developments of the illegal market. The existence and potential growth of the illegal market may lead to stricter regulation by the states concerned. Such stricter regulation may increase
costs, worsen the financial standing of the SAZKA Group companies, thus leading to the Issuer’s inability to meet its obligations under the Notes duly and in time. 

The strength and value of the SAZKA Group brands has a significant impact on its business position and profit 

The success of the SAZKA Group depends on the strength and value of all the brands within the Group. As at 31 December 2018, the share of brands,
trademarks and goodwill represented 40% of the Issuer’s total consolidated assets (31 December 2017: 36%). The SAZKA Group believes that the long-standing history, tradition and reputation of the brands representing the SAZKA Group companies
will continue to be a competitive advantage in the development of the lottery and gaming activities. The competition in the lottery and gaming industry is growing and the success of the SAZKA Group will depend on maintaining and developing the value
of these brands. The inability of the SAZKA Group to maintain the value of these brands and the resulting inability to expand its customer base may also reduce the attractiveness of the individual SAZKA Group companies as business partners. Brand
maintenance and development may be associated with significant capital costs, including support for the “physical” as well as online products. There is no guarantee that the investments in these assets and activities will always be
successful. Maintaining and developing the value of the brands also depends on the ability of the SAZKA Group to respond to innovation and technological progress in time. Any error in this area may affect the business activities, profit and
financial standing of the SAZKA Group companies and thus the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 
 The SAZKA
Group’s operating systems and networks are exposed to risks associated with technical errors and computer security violations 
 The ability of the
SAZKA Group companies to provide and operate their products and services successfully is based on network reliability and the secure operation of the hardware, software as well as the technical and telecommunication infrastructure. Any system
malfunction or limited operation may lead to the reduced ability to provide and operate the products and services. The operating systems of the SAZKA Group companies are secured using external database servers, security backups and other safeguards.

 Although the SAZKA Group companies have adopted the appropriate security countermeasures, the operating systems of the SAZKA Group continue to be exposed
to the threat of technical malfunctions, interruptions due to human errors, system operation failures, natural disasters, sabotage, computer viruses, cybernetic security breaches and other similar events. Each interruption of the ability to provide
and operate the products and services for these causes may imply additional costs, damage the business reputation of the companies within the SAZKA Group, or the imposition of penalties, thus reducing the revenues of the SAZKA Group companies. It
could have an adverse impact on the business activities and financial results of SAZKA Group as a whole and thus on the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

Financial Risks 
 The SAZKA Group has
significant debt liabilities and is bound by restrictive debt agreements 
 The SAZKA Group’s debt liabilities, which amounted to EUR
1,766,912 thousand as of 31 December 2018 (31 December 2017: EUR 1,599,664 thousand) give rise to restrictions that may adversely affect the business of the SAZKA Group. The indebtedness of the SAZKA Group companies may have significant
consequences, which may imply, in particular: 

  
 19/123 

	 	•	 	 increased sensitivity to the general conditions in the economy and in the industry and reduced flexibility in
responding to these conditions; 

  

	 	•	 	 decreased available cash flow due to the repayment of the principal and interest of debts as fixed costs and
reduced ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditure, acquisitions, joint ventures and other general corporate purposes; 

  

	 	•	 	 reduced ability to obtain additional debt financing and increased cost of such financing; 

 

	 	•	 	 reduced ability to explore new business opportunities; 

 

	 	•	 	 reduced flexibility in planning business changes or in responding to such changes in the competitive environment
and industries, putting the Group at a disadvantage in comparison with its competitors to the extent of their lower indebtedness or greater financial reserves. 

The documentation associated with debt liabilities involves a number of active and passive obligations and restrictions, which include the performance of
financial covenants that are standard in the financial markets as an obligation to maintain a certain debt-to-EBITDA ratio, a ratio of equity to total assets, an obligation to provide security, a debt coverage ratio or a prohibition not to exceed a
certain maximum amount of operating costs (all terms in this risk factor have their own specific definitive meanings given in each finance document and should not be confused with similar or identical terms used in this Prospectus). All of these
restrictions are subject to exceptions and exemptions. The contracts binding upon the SAZKA Group companies may limit their ability to finance their future activities and capital needs, take business opportunities and perform activities that may be
in their interest. This may have a material adverse impact on the ability of the SAZKA Group companies to meet their debt liabilities and thus on the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

The Issuer is a holding company and is dependent on payments from the SAZKA Group companies to meet its obligations under the Notes. These companies may
not be permitted or able to provide such payments to the Issuer. 
 The Issuer is a holding company and is heavily dependent on payments from the SAZKA
Group companies (in particular dividend payments and interest received from loans granted) or on the sale of its business participations. In 2017 and 2018, these payments represented nearly 100% of the Issuer’s revenues. In addition, these
payments are limited by the selected provisions of the finance documents governing the relevant debt liabilities of the individual SAZKA Group companies. Although the SAZKA Group may have sufficient resources to meet its obligations on a
consolidated basis, the SAZKA Group companies may not be able to make the necessary payments to the Issuers in order for the Issuer to be able to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. Restrictions or prohibitions under the finance documents
limit dividends and other payments to the Issuer from subsidiaries in order to secure the lenders against any funds being diverted from such companies. The restrictions shall apply in particular where its subsidiaries are facing financial
difficulties or the obligations under their financial contracts are not met. If disbursements are prevented, the Issuer may be in a situation where it will not have sufficient funds available to make payments under the Notes, thereby negatively
affecting investors. 
 The ability of the SAZKA Group to gain access to the credit and bond markets and its ability to obtain additional financing
partially depends on the Issuer’s rating, especially as a result of the voluntary offer to take over OPAP 
 The ability of the SAZKA Group
companies to gain access to capital markets and to other forms of financing (or refinancing) and the cost of these activities partially depends on the Issuer’s rating. On 26 July 2019, the Issuer’s rating was adjusted by S&P so
that its previous long-term BB- rating with a positive outlook was adjusted to a BB- rating with a negative outlook. The rating change occurred in connection with the announcement of a voluntary offer to take over OPAP as, in S&P’s view,
this offer would increase the Issuer’s debt in relation to the value of its operating profit and consequently worsen the credit risk assessment metric. At the same time, S&P stated that three months after the completion of the acquisition
of new shares in OPAP and the reassessment of the Issuer’s risk profile on a pro-forma basis after taking into account the acquired new debt. 

  
 20/123 

 If the Issuer’s rating were downgraded from BB- to B+ or lower, it would not only reduce the price of
these Notes, but it is very likely that the Issuer would have worse access to external financing or its costs of the financing would rise. Some financial institutions will not be able to grant a new loan to the Issuer or refinance the existing loan
in the case of a BB- rating under their internal rules, and for other financial institutions this may have an impact on the rate of interest for which they will be willing to lend. The same impact could be expected on capital market funding, where
some investors would be unwilling or their internal rules would not allow them to invest in the Issuer’s securities or the Issuer would have to accept a higher coupon to increase the demand for its notes. 

The Issuer’s rating may deteriorate or the interest in providing funds to the Issuer may decrease due to downgrading of the rating of the countries in
which it operates. 
 Increasing the cost of maintaining the debt service would certainly have a negative impact on the Issuer’s performance and cash
flows, which could result in the Issuer’s inability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. In the Issuer’s opinion, this negative impact could also have a negative effect on the financing of other SAZKA Group companies, as many
financial institutions monitor the performance of the SAZKA Group as a whole when granting loans or purchasing notes. 
 The SAZKA Group is exposed to
exchange rate fluctuations, in particular, the CZK/EUR rate, which may adversely affect its profitability 
 The financial results of the SAZKA Group
may be affected by exchange rate fluctuations, especially between the Czech Koruna and the EUR. The SAZKA Group reports its results in EUR and does a part of its business through SAZKA a.s. in Czech Korunas. In 2018 the Czech Republic accounted for
14% of the consolidated EBITDA of the Issuer (2017: 14%). The operations of the SAZKA Group in Italy, Greece, Austria and Cyprus are mainly conducted in euros. 

The SAZKA Group regularly checks the potential currency risks before concluding important contracts or business transactions. Despite the measures taken, it
is impossible to rule out losses due to adverse exchange rate movements which may have an adverse impact on the business of the SAZKA Group companies, their economic results, financial position and, ultimately, on the Issuer’s ability to duly
meet its obligations under the Notes. 
 Changes in the accounting policies or accounting standards of the SAZKA Group companies could significantly
affect the way in which they present their financial position and results of operations or could lead to inconsistencies in historical financial information 

From time to time, the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB), the EU and other regulatory authorities change international financial accounting and
reporting standards that regulate the preparation of financial statements of the SAZKA Group companies. These changes may be difficult to predict and may have a significant impact on how both the SAZKA Group companies and the SAZKA Group record and
report their operating and financial results. In some cases, the SAZKA Group companies may be required to apply a new or revised standard retrospectively, which would result in a restatement of the relevant financial statements for the previous
period or an adjustment to opening balances. 
 In other cases, the restatement of comparative financial statements will not be required and therefore
historical financial information for these periods may not be comparable to financial information prepared in accordance with new accounting policies or standards. 

For example, for the period from 1 January 2019, the SAZKA Group adopted IFRS 16 “Leases”, issued on 13 January 2016, effective for fiscal
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The new accounting standard sets out the principles for recording, measuring, presenting and reporting a lease. Leases, provided that they meet the standard definition of leases, entitle the lessee
to control the use of the asset from the inception of the lease and, if the lease price is paid over time, to obtain economic benefits from that asset. At the same time, IFRS 16 eliminates the distinction between operating and finance leases, as
required by IAS 17, and introduces a unified accounting model for the lessees. The SAZKA Group has adopted IFRS 16 as of 1 January 2019 but has not restated the financial statements for the 2018 comparative period in accordance with the
specific transitional provisions of the standard. The effects arising from the new lease 

  
 21/123 

 rules are therefore reflected in the opening balance sheet as at 1 January 2019 with an impact of EUR
99 million as an increase in the Issuer’s consolidated liabilities. The comparative statements for 2018 are reported under IAS 17 and will not be comparable to those for 2019. For other information on the effects of the transition to IFRS
16 on the Issuer’s consolidated financial statements, we refer to note 2 of the Issuer’s consolidated financial statements for 2018. 
 Credit
Risk 
 Credit risk is the risk of a financial loss that the SAZKA Group companies face in case of default by a customer or counterparty to a transaction
involving a financial instrument. The SAZKA Group companies face the credit risk mainly as a result of their business operations (in particular, trade receivables) and financial activities, including deposits in banks and financial loans provided to
third parties and other financial instruments. As of 31 December 2018, the volume of short-term and long-term receivables of the Issuer was EUR 292,879 thousand (31 December 2017: EUR 236,894 thousand). Of this, the nominal amount of
overdue receivables as of 31 December 2018 was EUR 48,240 thousand (31 December 2017: EUR 48,379) and the related provisions created as of 31 December 2018 amounted to EUR 38,699 thousand (31 December 2017: EUR 38,745 thousand).

 The carrying value represents the maximum credit risk as far as financial assets are concerned. As regards cash and cash equivalents, the SAZKA Group
companies keep their bank accounts with reputable banks where a minimum risk is expected. 
 Despite all the measures adopted by the SAZKA Group companies
to mitigate the consequences of the credit risk, default by a counterparty or by counterparties of the SAZKA Group companies may cause losses which may have an adverse impact on the business of the SAZKA Group companies, their economic results and
financial standing and, ultimately, on the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 
 Interest Rate Risk 

The business of the SAZKA Group companies is exposed to the risk of fluctuating interest rates to the extent that the interest-bearing assets (including
investments) and liabilities mature or are revalued at different time or at different rates. The period for which the interest rate of a financial instrument is fixed indicates to what extent the instrument is exposed to the interest rate risk. The
risk associated with a change in the market interest rates mainly relates to the SAZKA Group companies’ long-term liabilities with a variable interest rate. 

The SAZKA Group companies perform stress tests using the standardised interest shock, which means that an immediate interest rate increase/decrease by +/- 1%
is applied to the interest-bearing positions of the portfolio. The test is applied consistently to all the loans and borrowings in relation to which the SAZKA Group companies are exposed to the risk of fluctuating interest rates. As of
31 December 2018, an increase/decrease by 1 percentage point in interest rates (PRIBOR, LIBOR, EURIBOR) would mean an increase/decrease in interest costs of EUR 4,044 thousand (31 December 2017: EUR 9,883 thousand). 

Despite all the measures taken, it is impossible to rule out losses due to adverse interest rate movements which may have an adverse impact on the business of
SAZKA Group companies, their economic results, financial position and, ultimately, on the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

Liquidity Risk 
 Liquidity risk is the risk that the SAZKA
Group companies may face problems in meeting their obligations associated with their liabilities, which are liquidated by providing cash or other financial assets. As of 31 December 2018, the Issuer’s consolidated liquid assets1 amounted
to EUR 534,244 thousand (as of 31 December 2017: EUR 632,718 thousand) and the short-term liabilities as of 31 December 2018 amounted to EUR 505,789 thousand (31 December 2017: EUR 643,534 thousand). 

The management of the Issuer and of the SAZKA Group companies minimise the liquidity risk by continuously managing and planning the cash flows. The main cash
flow planning tool is creating the medium-term plan of the SAZKA Group, which is compiled on an annual basis for the given year plus the following three years. The cash flows for the upcoming years are updated on a continuous basis. 

 

	1 	 Liquid assets are defined as the sum of short-term trade receivables and other short-term assets, short-term
financial assets, and cash and cash equivalents. 

  
 22/123 

 The liquidity risk management strategy also includes the fact that a part of the assets held by the SAZKA
Group companies are highly liquid. 
 Despite all the measures taken, it is impossible to rule out that the SAZKA Group companies may face insufficient
liquidity for the reasons above, that they will not be able to pay their liabilities at maturity, which may lead to disruption of supplier relationships, worsening commercial conditions and insolvency proceedings. Such events may thus have an
adverse impact on the business of the SAZKA Group companies, their economic results, financial position and, ultimately, on the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 

Future increases in existing shares in subsidiaries in which the Issuer does not have a 100% share may lead to deterioration in its financial results if
the return on the investment is lower than expected 
 In the future, the SAZKA Group may increase the shares in the existing subsidiaries where it does
not hold a 100% share in the registered capital. These companies include OPAP, LOTTOITALIA and Casinos Austria AG (CASAG). As a result of increasing the shares in these companies, the exposure to the risk of negative economic development in
these companies will increase. Share purchases will be financed internally or with the assistance of external institutions. In the SAZKA Group, investments are planned with expected returns and an idea of the future economic development of the
acquired company or its part. Should the assumptions not materialise after the increase in the shares in the above-mentioned subsidiaries, the Issuer’s investment could have a negative return. In such a situation, the Issuer is in danger of
deteriorating its financial results, a fall in cash flows and an increase in the cost of debt service financing. At present, there is a risk of this in the case of a voluntary offer for the takeover of OPAP, where the poor future development of this
company may have a major negative impact on the Issuer and its business activities. As a result, the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes could be impaired. 

The SAZKA Group does not hold 100% of the voting rights or a 100% business participation in OPAP 

The financial results of OPAP as at 31 December 2018 are fully consolidated in the consolidated financial statements of the Issuer, who, however,
effectively held a 24.9% share in OPAP’s registered capital and therefore has access to the profit after tax and value of net assets corresponding to its share. 

The reason for full consolidation is the Issuer’s decision to exercise effective control over OPAP and its subsidiaries based on facts arising from IFRS
where the Issuer’s discretion is possible. The main reasons are that the Issuer exercises effective control over OPAP and appoints the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of OPAP. 

The Issuer notes that this is its subjective judgement and that the Auditor of the Issuer does not contradict this decision in the financial reports. It
cannot be ruled out that an independent third party (including another independent auditor) may conclude that OPAP including its subsidiaries should not be considered an entity controlled by the Issuer and, as such, it should not be consolidated in
the Issuer’s consolidated financial reports but instead, it should be recognised using the equity method. 
 Although potential change does not affect
the calculation of the financial liabilities set out in the Terms and Conditions, which are calculated on a pro rata basis, i.e. based on actual shareholdings held by the Issuer in other companies, and they are thus not subject to any change
in the used method of consolidation of the SAZKA Group companies in the consolidated financial reports of the Issuer, such potential change would have a material effect on the accounting items in the Issuer’s consolidated financial reports.

 Investors should therefore consider this fact when purchasing the Notes and eventually consult with their investment advisor on the impact of the
Issuer’s decision on the investment in the Notes. 

  
 23/123 

 Macroeconomic Risks 

The SAZKA Group is exposed to risks in the countries where it is based (with regard to the registered office of the Issuer and of the SAZKA Group companies)
as well as in the countries where the SAZKA Group pursues its business activities 
 The SAZKA Group companies primarily operate in the Austria, the
Czech Republic, Greece, and Italy. They are thus exposed to the political and economic factors present mainly in these countries. From the political perspective, it is the risk arising from changes in state leadership and governmental orientation,
diversity of the opinions on and approach to the liberalisation of the relevant industries, restrictions of business in the relevant country, and other political decisions. The macroeconomic factors in the countries where the SAZKA Group companies
operates, such as GDP growth, unemployment level, wage growth (nominal and real wages), interest rates, consumer credit availability, or economic forecast, may affect consumer behaviour and consumer spending model in the country. The SAZKA Group
companies are affected by both the political and economic situation in the individual countries where they operate and by the state and functioning of the EU and of the Eurozone. 

The country’s rating is an important factor in assessing the country’s ability to meet its future obligations. List of the current rating of the
main countries where the SAZKA Group companies operate: 
  

	 	•	 	 Czech Republic: Moody’s: A1 (positive outlook); S&P: AA- (stable outlook); Fitch: AA- (stable outlook)

  

	 	•	 	 Greece: The rating of Greece is Moody’s: B1 (stable outlook); S&P: B+ (positive outlook); Fitch: BB-
(stable outlook) 

  

	 	•	 	 Italy: Moody’s: Baa3 (stable outlook); S&P: BBB (negative outlook); Fitch: BBB (negative outlook)

  

	 	•	 	 Austria: Moody’s: Aa1 (stable outlook); S&P: AA+ (stable outlook); Fitch: AA+ (positive outlook)

 There is no guarantee that the individual countries will keep their current rating and that the rating will not be lowered. There is
also no guarantee of the non-recurrence of events that may adversely affect the investors’ confidence in the markets where the SAZKA Group companies operate and that may cause the rating of these countries to be lowered. Any downgrading of the
rating may indicate an unfavourable development of the national economy, its economic growth, disposable income of households and the related decrease in household spending on lottery and betting activities. Such effects could subsequently
negatively affect the economic situation of the SAZKA Group companies and thus the Issuer’s ability to duly meet its obligations under the Notes. 
  

	2	 Risk Factors Related to the Notes 

Risk of no Additional Security 
 Additional Security, if
any, will be created only after the Issue Date if the Issuer is obliged to create such Additional Security or have it created according to the Terms and Conditions. If no Additional Security was created and if the Noteholders therefore requested
early redemption of their Notes, they will be in a worse position than if the Notes were secured as there might be a risk that the Issuer is unable to pay the obligations under the Notes in due time, resulting in the investor losing the entire
investment or a part of the investment in the Notes. 
 The rights of the Noteholders may be adversely affected by the failure to meet the conditions for
the creation of Additional Security or by the Security Providers not being the owners of the Secured Assets 
 The law requires that the provider or
beneficiary of the security meets certain statutory requirements as far as certain objects of security are concerned. The Security Agent, if appointed, has no obligation to monitor whether all the steps required for the creation of Additional
Security have been taken. The failure to meet the statutory requirements for the creation of Additional Security may cause the loss of Additional Security or the priority of Additional Security in relation to third parties. 

  
 24/123 

 Only the owner of the Secured Asset may collateralise the item. If it is found that any Security Provider
was not the owner of the relevant Secured Asset on the date of which the Additional Security is created, the Additional Security created in relation to the relevant Secured Asset would be invalid. 

The ability to satisfy the Noteholders from Additional Security may be limited 

Any Additional Security regarding the Notes is subject to the exemptions, encumbrances, liens and any other legal defects permitted by the Terms and Conditions
or the Intercreditor Agreement which may exist on the Issue Date or arise at any time thereafter. The existence of such exemptions, encumbrances, liens and any other legal defects may have an adverse impact on the value of Additional Security or on
the ability of the Security Agent, if appointed, to enforce this Additional Security. The priority of the lien may be affected by a number of factors, including without limitation the timely fulfilment of the requirements for its creation. 

The enforcement under Additional Security may also be further limited by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, which may govern the relations between the
individual creditors of the Issuer (including the Noteholders) and their rights to the Additional Security and the enforcement thereof, including the required approval of the exercise of the rights to the Additional Security by such other creditors.

 The value of the Additional Security at any point will depend on the market and economic conditions, including the availability of suitable buyers.
Because of its nature, Additional Security may be illiquid or have a market value difficult to determine and its value for third persons may be lower than its value for the Security Provider. The value of the Secured Asset may decrease in time or be
impaired as a result of changing economic conditions, business strategy failures, competition and other future trends. As a result, the creditors under Additional Security may not be satisfied in case of the disposal of the relevant Secured Asset.

 Commencement of deadlines for claiming ineffectiveness of legal acts 

The provision of Additional Security in connection with the Issue may result in the commencement of deadlines for claiming ineffectiveness of the Additional
Security. These deadlines start upon the provision or creation of the relevant Additional Security. If Additional Security is enforced prior before the relevant deadline, it could be declared invalid or ineffective and the security could not be
enforced. 
 Additional Security is provided for the benefit of the Noteholders, but their rights to Additional Security will be exercised by the
Security Agent in its own name 
 Any Additional Security will be provided to the Noteholders, but the Security Agent will exercise, in its own name,
the rights of the Noteholders under the Additional Security. Each Noteholder is in the position of a joint and several creditor with regard to the Security Agent. The Security Agent will thus be the only party to the Security Documents in addition
to the relevant Security Provider, as a result of which only the Security Agent may claim and exercise any rights under Additional Security. No Noteholder will be authorised to exercise these rights separately. 

The legal concept of a security agent was included in the Czech Bonds Act by its amendment, No. 307/2018 Coll., effective from 4 January 2019. As
this is the first enactment of this concept in Czech law, there is currently no decision-making practice of the courts or a generally accepted legal interpretation available. This legal uncertainty may have a negative impact on the satisfaction of
the Noteholders from Additional Security. 

  
 25/123 

 Risks related to the Security Agent and its conduct 

The Issuer may only appoint the Security Agent in the future. For this reason, the Issuer cannot guarantee that, at the time of appointing or replacing the
Security Agent, a Security Agent will be available who will have sufficient experience with a similar role and will have available sufficient equipment to handle its obligations as a security agent even though the Issuer will proceed in good faith
and with proper diligence in the selection of the Security Agent. This problem is due to the fact that this institute is anchored in the Czech Republic by an amendment to the Czech Bonds Act, for which there is no judicial review or market practice.
This, in the Issuer’s experience of dealing with financial institutions in the financial markets, may result in institutions that normally perform this role on the international capital market not being willing to accept this role. 

The Security Agent is not required to act in accordance with the decision of the Noteholders’ meeting if the decision of the Noteholders’ meeting is
contrary to law or good morals in the opinion of the Security Agent. 
 The inability of the Security Agent to enforce the Additional Security in time may
have a negative effect on the satisfaction of the Noteholders from the Additional Security. 
 Compensation with regard to the actions of the Security
Agent 
 Each Noteholder shall compensate (on a proportionate basis) the Security Agent, if appointed, for any expense, loss or debt incurred by it
(other than by gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Security Agent) while acting as the Security Agent in the exercise of its authorisations granted to it under the Terms and Conditions or the Security Documents (unless the Security Agent
has been compensated otherwise). This compensation may have an adverse impact on the Noteholders. 
 Risk of default and risk related to the redemption
of the Notes by the Issuer 
 Much like any other monetary debt, the Notes are exposed to the risk of default. Under certain circumstances, the Issuer
may be unable to pay interest on, or the nominal value of, the Notes. In case of the redemption of the Notes by the Issuer on the market, the price paid to the Noteholders for the Notes may be lower than their original investment and, under certain
circumstances; the price may even be zero. 
 Risk of the interest rate on the Notes 

The holder of a note with a fixed interest rate is exposed to the risk of a decrease in the price of such a Note as a result of changes in the market interest
rates. While the nominal interest rate is fixed for the term of the existence of the Notes, the current interest rate on the capital market (market interest rate) usually changes daily. As the market interest rate changes, the price of the
fixed-rate Note changes too, but it does so inversely. If the market interest rate increases, the price of the fixed-rate Note usually drops to a level where the yield of such a Note roughly equals the market interest rate. On the contrary, if the
market interest rate decreases, the price of the fixed-rate Note usually rises to a level where the yield of such a Note roughly equals the market interest rate. This fact may have an adverse impact on the value and development of the investment in
the Notes. 
 Risk of Early Redemption 
 In case of a
full or partial early redemption of the Notes, including where this takes place without the consent of the particular Noteholder, in accordance with the Terms and Conditions prior to their redemption date, the Noteholder is exposed to the risk of
the yield being lower than expected due to such early redemption. 
 Liquidity risk on the Regulated Market of the PSE 

The Issuer will apply for the Notes to be listed for trading on the Regulated Market of the PSE. Regardless of the listing of the Notes on a regulated market,
there can be no assurance that a sufficiently liquid secondary market in the Notes will be created or, if it is, that such a secondary market will continue to exist. The fact that the Notes may be listed on a regulated market may not necessarily
lead to the higher liquidity of such Notes in comparison with the Notes not listed on a regulated market. Notes which are not listed on a regulated market may be difficult to value, which may have an adverse impact on their liquidity. On a
potentially non-liquid market, the investor may not be able to sell the Notes at an adequate market price at any time. This fact may have an adverse impact on the value of the investment in the Notes. 

  
 26/123 

 Fees 

The overall return on the investment in the Notes may be affected by the level of fees which are charged by the securities trader or another intermediary of
the purchase or sale of the Notes or by the relevant clearing system used by the investor. Such a person or institution may charge fees for opening and maintaining the investment account, transfers of securities, services associated with the custody
of securities, etc. The Issuer therefore recommends the future investors in the Notes to become familiar with the documents on the basis of which fees will be charged in connection with the Notes. This fact may have an adverse impact on the value of
the Notes. 
 Note purchase lawfulness risk 
 The
prospective buyers of the Notes (especially foreign persons) should be aware of the fact that the purchase of the Notes may be subject to legal restrictions affecting the validity of the acquisition. The Issuer has and assumes no liability for the
lawfulness of the acquisition of the Notes by a prospective buyer of the Notes whether under the laws of the state (jurisdiction) of its establishment or those of the state (jurisdiction) where it operates (if different). The prospective buyer must
not rely on the Issuer or any member of the Group in connection with his/her decision-making regarding the lawfulness of the acquisition of the Notes. If a potential acquirer of the Notes were to purchase the Notes in violation of the statutory
restrictions applicable to it, it could ultimately invalidate such acquisition and the Issuer would be obliged to return to that acquirer the amount for which that person intended to purchase the Notes as unjust enrichment. Depending on the laws
(jurisdiction) applicable to the person, other legal consequences may be associated with such acquisition of the Notes in violation of statutory restrictions. 

Risk of different terms and prices for the Notes in concurrent initial / secondary public offering through individual Joint Lead Managers 

The terms and conditions of the initial public offering (made by the Issuer through the Joint Lead Managers) and of the secondary public offering (made by the
Joint Lead Managers and other selected financial intermediaries), if made concurrently, may differ (including the price and fees charged to the investor). If the investor subscribes/buys Notes at a higher price (with price meaning the issue price in
the initial offering, or the purchase price in a secondary offering), the investor bears the risk that the overall return on the investment will be lower than if the Notes were subscribed/purchased at a lower price. The price and its total amount
may also reflect any fees charged to the investor by the Joint Lead Managers or third parties in connection with the public offering (initial or secondary) and the registration of the Notes, potentially resulting in different costs the investor may
have to incur in order to purchase one Note from different Joint Lead Managers. 
 Inflation risk 

Prospective investors in the Notes should be aware that the fair value of the investment in the Notes may decline as inflation decreases the value of the
currency. As the Notes do not contain an anti-inflation clause, inflation causes a decline in real Note yields. According to the latest CNB forecast published on 1 August 2019, the year-on-year overall inflation at 2.2 % is expected on the
monetary policy horizon of the 3rd quarter of 2020, with a decline to 2.1 % in the 4th quarter of 2020. If, however, a situation occurs where this forecast is not fulfilled and inflation exceeds the level of the nominal yield on the Notes, the
value of the real yield on the Notes will be negative.

	1	 General Information about the Offering, the Authorised Person and the Method of Subscription

 On the basis of the mandate contract for the arrangement of the issue of notes, dated 5 August 2019, as amended (Mandate
Contract), the Issuer has mandated the Coordinator with arrangements for the Issue and preparation of the documents related to the Issue and the listing of the Notes for trading at the Regulated Market of the PSE, and has mandated the
Coordinator along with ČS, KB and UCB as Joint Lead Managers with the public offering and placing the Notes with the end investors. The Notes may be offered exclusively through the Joint Lead Managers independently of each other. The Joint Lead
Managers will subscribe the Notes from the Issuer and then sell them to the investors as described below. 
 The Issuer intends to issue the Notes in the
expected aggregate nominal amount of the Issue of CZK 5,000,000,000 (in words: five billion Czech Koruna) with an optional increase up to CZK 6,000,000,000 (in words: six billion Czech Koruna). The Notes may be issued individually or in tranches.
All the Notes issued as a part of the Issue will be subject to the public offering. 
 The Joint Lead Managers are committed to making their best effort
that can be reasonably expected of them to search for the prospective investors in the Notes and place the Notes with and sell them to such investors. The offering of the Notes will thus be on the “best efforts” basis. Neither the
Joint Lead Managers nor any other persons have assumed a firm obligation to the Issuer to subscribe or buy the Notes. 
 This Prospectus has been prepared
and published for the purpose of the public offering of the Notes and for the purpose of admission of the Notes for trading on the Regulated Market of the PSE. 
  

	2	 Placement and Offering of the Notes 

In accordance with Article 2 (d) of the Prospectus Regulation, the Notes will be offered by the Issuer through the Joint Lead Managers under a public
offering to the domestic and foreign qualified and other than qualified (in particular, retail) investors in the Czech Republic, and to selected qualified investors and other potential investors abroad subject to the conditions which do not impose
the obligation of the offeror to prepare and publish a prospectus in accordance with the laws applicable in that jurisdiction. The public offering of the Notes by the Joint Lead Managers lasts from 23 August 2019 to 15 August 2020. 

As part of the public offering, the investors will be approached by the Joint Lead Managers, mainly by means of remote communication, and invited to place an
order for the purchase of the Notes (Order), provided that the investor must present a valid identity document in order to participate in the public offering. 

In connection with the placement of the Order, the investors must conclude, or have concluded, an agreement with the relevant Joint Lead Manager for purposes
such as opening the asset account in the investment instrument register kept by Central Depository or detailed securities records by the relevant Joint Lead Manager and giving the instruction to arrange the purchase of the Notes under such an
agreement, or they may be invited to present the required documents and identification details by the relevant Joint Lead Manager. 
 The purchase of the
Notes from the Coordinator is conditional on the conclusion of an investment service provision agreement between the investor and the Coordinator and on giving the instruction to arrange the purchase of the Notes under that agreement. As part of the
public offering in the Czech Republic, the Coordinator will receive the instructions through its headquarters in Prague and, in case of the public offering in Slovakia, through its branch, i.e. J & T Banka, a.s., pobočka zahraničnej

There is no minimum amount for which the investor may subscribe and purchase the Notes. The maximum volume of the nominal value of the Notes demanded by the
individual investor in the Order is limited by the foreseen aggregate nominal amount of the Notes offered by the Joint Lead Managers. If the volume of Orders exceeds the volume of the Issue, each Joint Lead Manager may, following an agreement with
the Issuer, reduce the investor’s Orders at its discretion (provided that any surplus will be immediately returned in the investor’s account stated to the relevant Joint Lead Manager). The final nominal value of the Notes assigned to the
individual investor will be stated in the transaction clearing confirmation, which will be delivered to the investor by the Joint Lead Manager without unreasonable delay after the execution of the instruction. The investor may not trade in the
subscribed Notes before this confirmation is delivered.

thousand Czech Koruna). The estimated aggregate nominal amount of the Issue is CZK 5,000,000,000 (in words: five billion Czech Koruna), with the possibility of an increase of up to CZK 6,000,000,000 (in words: six billion Czech Koruna). 

 

	1.2	 Separation of the Right to Interest 

There will be no separation of the right to receive interest payable under the Notes through an issue of coupons as separate securities or otherwise. 

 

	1.3	 Noteholders 

A noteholder is any person on whose owner’s securities account (within the meaning of the Capital Market Act) with the Central Depositary or in follow-up
records linked to the Central Depositary a Note is recorded (the Noteholder). Until it has been convincingly proven to the Issuer and the Fiscal and Paying Agent that the crediting to the owner’s securities account in the Central
Depositary or the entry in the follow-up records linked to the Central Depositary does not correspond to reality, and that there is another person on whose owner’s securities account in the Central Depositary or in the follow-up records linked
to the Central Depositary the Note should be registered, the Issuer and the Fiscal and Paying Agent will consider each Noteholder as the authorised noteholder in all respects and make payments to that Noteholder in accordance with these Terms and
Conditions. Persons on whose owner’s securities accounts in the Central Depositary or in the follow-up records linked to the Central Depositary their Notes are not registered for any reason, even though such persons should be the Noteholders,
are obliged to immediately inform the Issuer and the Fiscal and Paying Agent of this fact and the title of ownership of the Notes and prove these facts to them in a convincing manner. 

 

	1.4	 Transfer of the Notes 

The transferability of the Notes is not limited. 
 The transfer
of the Notes will be effective upon the crediting thereof to the owner’s securities account with the Central Depositary in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Central Depositary and applicable law. In the event that the Notes are
recorded in the client’s securities account in the Central Depositary, the transfer of the Notes will be effective (i) upon crediting of the transferred Note to the client’s securities account in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Central Depositary and applicable law, and the owner of the client’s securities account is obliged to promptly register such transfer in the owner’s securities account as of the moment of registration thereof in the
client’s securities account, or (ii) in the event of any transfer between the Noteholders within one client’s securities account, upon the registration of such transfer in the owner’s securities account in the follow-up records
linked to the Central Depositary.

	1.5	 Rating 

On 18 January 2019, the Issuer was assigned a rating by S&P Global Ratings Europe Limited (S&P), registered under Regulation (EC) No
1060/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, at the level of BB- with a positive outlook. On 26 July 2019, S&P changed the outlook from positive to negative. The rating change occurred in connection with the announcement of a
voluntary offer to take over OPAP as, in S&P’s view, this offer would increase the Issuer’s debt in relation to the value of its operating profit and consequently worsen the credit risk assessment metric. At the same time, S&P
stated that three months after the completion of the acquisition of new shares in OPAP and the reassessment of the Issuer’s risk profile on a pro-forma basis after taking into account the acquired new debt. 

The rating may not reflect all risks associated with the Notes, in particular risks associated with structure of the Notes, impact of market changes and other
factors influencing the value of the Notes. The rating does not represent a recommendation to purchase, sell or hold the Notes and the rating agency assigning the rating may change, suspend or withdraw the rating at any time. 

A “BB” rating means that the Issuer is less vulnerable in the near future than other lower-rated borrowers. However, the Issuer faces significant
uncertainties and exposure to adverse business, financial and economic conditions that may lead to the Issuer’s insufficient ability to meet its financial obligations. S&P’s “BB” rating has three grades (“+”,
unmarked and “-”); the “-” sign indicates the position in relation to the other grades of the “BB” rating. A negative outlook indicates that a rating downgrade may occur in the medium or long term. 

 

	2	 Issue Date, Subscription Period, Issue Price, Method and Place of Notes Subscription

  

	2.1	 Issue Date, Subscription Period 

The Notes may be issued (i) in a single series on the Issue Date or (ii) in tranches at any time after the Issue Date until 15 August 2020. If,
upon agreement with the Coordinator (and other competent Joint Lead Managers where necessary), the Issuer decides to issue Notes in a higher nominal amount than the anticipated aggregate nominal amount of the Issue, the aggregate nominal amount of
all the issued Notes must not exceed CZK 6,000,000,000. The subscription period will start on 23 August 2019 and end on 15 August 2020. 
 The
Issuer will notify the Noteholders of the aggregate nominal amount of all Notes issued after their issue and at the latest immediately after the expiry of the Note subscription period. Such notifications will be made in the manner as specified in
Condition 14 without undue delay. 
  

	2.2	 Issue Price 

The issue price of all Notes issued as of the Issue Date is 100% (the Issue Price). 

The Issue Price of any Notes issued after the Issue Date will be determined by the Coordinator (and other competent Joint Lead Managers where necessary) upon
agreement with the Issuer on the basis of current market conditions. If applicable, a corresponding pro-rata interest income will be added to the amount of the issue price of any Notes issued after the Issue Date. For the avoidance of doubt, none of
the persons publicly offering Notes under Section 34 of the Capital Market Act have any obligation to any Note investor to buy back any Notes. 
  

	2.3	 Method and Place of Note Subscription 

Further information on the method and place of subscription for Notes is stated in the Prospectus (see section Subscription and Sale). 

  
 38/123 

	3	 Status of the Notes 

 

	3.1	 Ranking of Satisfaction 

The Notes constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated liabilities of the Issuer which rank and will rank pari passu among themselves
and at least pari passu with any present and future unsubordinated and unsecured liabilities of the Issuer or at least in the same or similar manner secured in the future in accordance with Condition 3.3 et seq. and Conditions 4.4 and
4.5, with the exception of liabilities treated preferentially under applicable mandatory laws. Under the same conditions, the Issuer must treat all Noteholders equally. 
  

	3.2	 No Pre-emptive or Priority Rights 

Neither the shareholders of the Issuer nor any other person has any right of first refusal, pre-emptive or conversion rights in relation to the Notes or any
other priority subscription rights in relation to the Notes. 
  

	3.3	 Additional Security 

The Issuer is obliged, under the terms set out in Condition 4.4, to ensure that the Issuer’s liabilities arising from the Notes are secured by a
first-ranking pledge or other first-ranking security to the Security Assets (as defined in Condition 3.5) established for the benefit of the Noteholders or the Security Agent as a pledgee or recipient of another security by the Issuer or any other
person specified in Condition 3.5 (the Issuer and such other person hereinafter as the Security Provider); the pledges and other security referred to in this Condition 3.3 and Condition 3.5 hereinafter as the Additional Security. 

 

	3.4	 Security Agent 

The Security Agent exercises the rights of the creditor and the pledgee or the recipient of other security, including the rights arising from or related to the
Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement (as these terms are defined in Condition 3.5), in its own name for the benefit of the Noteholders, also in the event of insolvency proceedings, enforcement of a decision or distrainment concerning
the Security Provider. 
 The funds obtained under the Additional Security that the Security Agent receives, inter alia, in accordance with the
Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in Condition 3.5) belong to the Noteholders (proportionately to the number of the Notes held by them) and the Security Agent as provided for in Condition 3.10; in accordance with Section 20(2) of the Czech
Bonds Act, such funds are considered to be the customer’s property under the Capital Market Act. In exercising the rights under the Additional Security, the Security Documents, the Security Agent Agreement and the Terms and Conditions and other
rights under the Czech Bonds Act relating to the Additional Security, the Security Agent is considered to be the creditor of each secured receivable in accordance with Section 20a(6) of the Czech Bonds Act. To the extent that such rights
(including those referred to in Section 20a(5) of the Czech Bonds Act) are exercised by the Security Agent, no Noteholder is entitled to exercise such rights separately. In cases where the Security Agent is in delay with the exercise of the
applicable rights or the performance of its duties for more than 30 days, this constitutes a reason for which the Security Agent may be dismissed under the Security Agent Agreement and the Issuer is obliged to convene a Meeting under Condition
12.1.2. 
 Essential documents relating to the Additional Security, including the Security Documents, on the basis of which the Additional Security will be
established will be available for inspection by Noteholders during normal business hours at the Specified Office (as this term is defined in Condition 11.1.1). For the avoidance of doubt, the Intercreditor Agreement (as this term is defined in
Condition 3.5), unless it is excluded therein, will be available for inspection by Noteholders during normal business hours at the Specified Office (as this term is defined in Condition 11.1.1); if the possibility of disclosure is excluded, the
Noteholders will be provided with a description of the provisions relevant to the exercise of the Additional Security and the related restrictions. 

  
 39/123 

 By subscribing for or purchasing the Notes, each Noteholder agrees to the appointment of the Security Agent
as a security agent under Section 20 et seq. of the Czech Bonds Act. Each Noteholder further agrees that the Security Agent may, in its name and on behalf of the Noteholders, exercise all rights of a creditor, pledgee or recipient of any
other security arising from the Additional Security, the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement (as this term is defined in Condition 3.5 below), the Terms and Conditions, the Security Agent Agreement and the Czech Bonds Act or other
applicable legislation under the terms and conditions set forth therein, in the event the Additional Security is established. 
 The Security Agent, in the
Security Agent Agreement, will agree to its appointment as a security agent and other authorisations under the Terms and Conditions and Section 20 et seq. of the Czech Bonds Act in connection with the Notes and the Additional Security
contained in the Security Agent Agreement and the Security Documents. The Security Agent Agreement and the Security Documents may include additional details regarding the rights and obligations of the Security Agent, including, where applicable, the
enforcement of the Additional Security for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Security Agent. 
  

	3.5	 Establishment and Maintenance of the Additional Security and Procedure in the Event of the Issuer’s
Default in Connection with the Establishment of the Additional Security 

 The Additional Security may be established at the
Issuer’s expense on the basis of: 
  

	(a)	 agreement on the establishment of a pledge of the Issuer’s shares (the Shares) concluded between
the Security Agent as the pledgee and the Issuer’s shareholder as the pledgor; 

  

	(b)	 agreement on the establishment of a pledge of the assets (together with the Shares hereinafter the Security
Assets) of the Issuer or its Subsidiary concluded between the Security Agent as the pledgee and the relevant Security Provider as the pledgor 

(the agreements listed under (a) and (b) together hereinafter as the Pledge Agreements); 

 

	(c)	 agreement on the establishment of other security in relation to the Shares concluded between the Security Agent
as the security beneficiary and the Issuer’s shareholder as the security provider; and 

  

	(d)	 agreement on the establishment of other security in relation to Security Assets other than the Shares in the
Issuer or its Subsidiary concluded between the Security Agent as the security beneficiary and the relevant Security Provider as the security provider 

(the agreements listed under (c) and (d) together with the Pledge Agreements as the Security Documents), 

always in accordance with any agreement, contractual or other arrangements or other documentation (the Intercreditor Agreement) that the Security Agent
enters into, inter alia, concerning the exercise of the applicable rights or the performance of duties under the Additional Security or Security Documents with (i) any other creditor or creditors of the Issuer; (ii) a creditor or
creditors of any company directly or indirectly owning the Shares or (iii) an authorised representative or representatives of such creditor or creditors (the Secured Creditors), for whose benefit a pledge or other security of liabilities
of the Issuer under notes or other debt securities of the Issuer to be issued or already issued under one or more issues with an aggregate nominal amount of at least EUR 200,000,000 (the Secured Financing). The Intercreditor Agreement may,
inter alia, regulate the terms of performance or exercise of the applicable rights or the performance of duties under the Additional Security or the Security Documents by the Security Agent and the procedure of the Security Agent in the
performance of the Additional Security and the use of any proceeds from the Additional Security, including any terms or limitation of such performance or the use of such proceeds with the consent of the Secured Creditor, the Secured Creditors or
their representative or representatives for whose benefit a pledge or other security was or is to be established on the same Security Assets. The Intercreditor Agreement will be a separate agreement or part of the Security Agent Agreement and, in
the latter case references to the Intercreditor Agreement provided in these Terms and Conditions are references to the relevant provisions of the Security Agent Agreement containing the Intercreditor Agreement. 

  
 40/123 

 The Issuer is obliged to conclude the Security Documents or ensure the conclusion of the Security Documents
by the relevant Security Provider so that the Additional Security is established within the period specified in Condition 4.4. 
 The Issuer will, and will
ensure that each relevant Security Provider will, properly maintain the Additional Security in full in accordance with the relevant Security Documents and the Security Agent Agreement until all of the Issuer’s liabilities arising from the Notes
or other secured liabilities under the Security Documents have been paid. 
 If the Additional Security is not established within the period specified in
Condition 4.4, or if any Additional Security ceases to exist in whole or in part in violation of these Terms and Conditions, the Issuer will be obliged to notify the Security Agent thereof within five Business Days and, without delay convene a
Meeting (as this term is defined in Condition 12.1.1), at which the Issuer will justify that. The Meeting will subsequently decide by a simple majority of votes of the Noteholders present on further actions, including the possible extension of the
time limit for the establishment of the Additional Security, the setting of the time limit for the establishment of another security in favour of the Noteholders or the Security Agent as a pledgee or beneficiary of another security (if this is in
accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement) or the setting of an early maturity of the Notes, unless the Additional Security is established before the date of the Meeting in accordance with Condition 4.4. 

In the event the Meeting, under its decision taken in accordance with the preceding paragraph, has not decided on an early maturity of the Notes, the
procedure set out in Condition 12.4.1 will apply unless the Meeting also decides to extend the time limit for establishing the Additional Security. 
  

	3.6	 Position of the Security Agent 

The Security Agent is obliged to act with due care, in particular, to act in a qualified, honest and fair manner and in the best interests of the Noteholders,
and is bound by the instructions validly given by the Meeting unless otherwise specified in these Terms and Conditions or the Intercreditor Agreement. The Security Agent exercises the rights and obligations contained in these Terms and Conditions,
the Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Security Agent Agreement and Section 20 et seq. of the Czech Bonds Act, always in accordance with and under the conditions specified in the Intercreditor Agreement. In accordance
with Section 20a(8) of the Czech Bonds Act, the provisions of the Civil Code on the management of someone else’s assets will not apply to the activities of the Security Agent. The Security Agent is not obliged to review the accuracy of any
documents or any calculations made by the Issuer under these Terms and Conditions. 
 In the event there are any reasons for the termination of the
activities of the Security Agent under the Security Agent Agreement or any other reasons under the Czech Bonds Act, including Section 21(1)(c) of the Act, the Issuer is obliged to convene a Meeting (as defined below) without undue delay in
accordance with Condition 12.1.2 to decide on the appointment of a new security agent (the New Security Agent). In the event the Issuer does not convene a Meeting, the Security Agent is obliged to convene the Meeting without undue delay and
at the Issuer’s expense in accordance with Condition 12.1.1. If the Meeting is not convened by either the Issuer or the Security Agent, any Noteholder is authorised to convene the Meeting in accordance with Condition 12.1.1. 

The rights and obligations arising from the Additional Security, the Security Documents, these Terms and Conditions and the Security Agent Agreement pursuant
to Section 20(6) of the Czech Bonds Act will automatically be transferred to the New Security Agent and, if the Intercreditor Agreement so permits, the rights and obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement will also pass to the New Security
Agent, with effect as of the date on which the Meeting adopted the decision to appoint the New Security Agent, unless a later date is specified in the Meeting’s decision. The procedure for changing the Security Agent is further 

  
 41/123 

 specified in the Security Agent Agreement. However, the transfer of rights and obligations to the New
Security Agent will not take place before the New Security Agent has consented to its appointment as a security agent in respect of the Notes. No obligations of the Security Agent arising from a breach of its obligations as a security agent or any
liabilities related to the office of the Security Agent that originated before the effective date of appointment of the New Security Agent will be transferred to the New Security Agent. The Issuer will notify the Noteholders of the appointment of
the New Security Agent in the manner specified in Condition 14 of these Terms and Conditions. 
  

	3.7	 Actions of the Security Agent 

 

	(a)	 The Security Agent 

  

	 	(i)	 is obliged, subject to paragraphs (d), (e) and (f) below, to exercise any right or refrain from
exercising any right which it has as the Security Agent, in accordance with any instruction approved by the Meeting by a simple majority of the Noteholders present (the Meeting Instruction); and 

 

	 	(ii)	 is not responsible for any action (or omission) if it acts (or refrains from acting) in accordance with the
Meeting Instruction or the Intercreditor Agreement. 

  

	(b)	 Instruction clarification 

The Security Agent is entitled to request 
  

	 	(i)	 convening a Meeting to issue a Meeting Instruction or to specify the decisions under previous Meeting
Instructions, or, 

  

	 	(ii)	 if the statutory conditions for making a decision on matters that were not included in the proposed agenda of
the Meeting are fulfilled, a Meeting Instruction or specifying the Meeting Instruction directly within the Meeting, 

 as to whether and
how it should exercise any right or refrain from exercising any right or authority, and the Security Agent may refrain from acting until it receives such a Meeting Instruction or specification, unless such exercise or refraining from exercising that
right is not possible due to a conflict with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or due to lack of consent to such exercise or refraining under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. This is without prejudice to the right, and not the
obligation, of the Security Agent to exercise any right or refrain from exercising any right or authority if the delay in the opinion of the Security Agent could cause serious damage to the Noteholders and such action or refraining is not contrary
to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, i.e. the Security Agent does not lack the necessary consent thereunder. 
  

	(c)	 Binding nature of instructions 

Any Meeting Instructions will be binding on all Noteholders. 
  

	(d)	 Paragraph (a)(i) above will not apply: 

 

	 	(i)	 if otherwise specified in these Terms and Conditions; or 

 

	 	(ii)	 if these Terms and Conditions or the Intercreditor Agreement require the Security Agent to act in a certain
manner or make a certain act; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 if this is not possible due to a conflict with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or lack of consent to
such actions under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

  
 42/123 

	(e)	 In the exercise of any right of the Security Agent under the Security Documents or any related right, including
the exercise of the creditor’s rights under Section 20a(5) of the Czech Bonds Act, where: 

  

	 	(i)	 the Security Agent has not received any instruction regarding the exercise of that right;

  

	 	(ii)	 the exercise of that right is subject to paragraph (d) above; or 

 

	 	(iii)	 in the opinion of the Security Agent, the Meeting Instruction is in violation of law or good morals,

 the Security Agent will act at its discretion, taking into account the interests of all Noteholders and ensuring compliance of such
conduct with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
  

	(f)	 The Security Agent is not obliged to act in accordance with the Meeting Instruction unless it is also provided
with sufficient security or promised indemnification by the Meeting or the Issuer (in the opinion of the Security Agent to a sufficient extent) in the event of any material or non-material damage. 

Without prejudice to the provisions of Condition 3.9 or other provisions of this Condition 3.7, in the absence of any Meeting Instructions the Security Agent
may act (or refrain from acting) as it deems appropriate, but always in the best interest of the Noteholders. 
  

	3.8	 Conclusion of the Intercreditor Agreement by the Security Agent 

The Noteholders authorise the Security Agent, if the Additional Security is established and if it is necessary in the interests of the Noteholders, to enter
into an Intercreditor Agreement with the Secured Creditors, or their representatives, who have or will have a pledge or other security over the Security Assets. In such an event, the Security Agent will enter into the Intercreditor Agreement with
due care and negotiate in good faith its terms and conditions in accordance with international standards and practices imposed on similar agreements to protect the Security Agent’s rights and those of the Noteholders. If, in the opinion of the
Security Agent, it is necessary for the protection of its rights and the rights of the Noteholders, the Security Agent may, at the Issuer’s expense, convene a Meeting pursuant to Condition 12.1.1 on which the Security Agent may ask the
Noteholders to approve the entering into the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 The Noteholders acknowledge that the conclusion of the Intercreditor Agreement will
aim to regulate the conditions for the exercise of the applicable rights or performance of obligations under the Additional Security or the Security Documents by the Security Agent and the procedure of the Security Agent in performing the Additional
Security and the use of any proceeds from the Additional Security, and to regulate the same or similar conditions for the exercise of applicable rights or performance of obligations under a pledge or other security of the liabilities of the Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries under the Secured Financing established or to be established on the same Security Assets for the Secured Creditor, the Secured Creditors or their representative or representatives, and that the conclusion of the
Intercreditor Agreement may impose conditions or restrict the rights of the Security Agent and the Noteholders under the Additional Security, including setting conditions or restrictions on the immediate exercise of the Additional Security for the
benefit of the Secured Creditor, the Secured Creditors or their representative or representatives. On the basis of the conclusion of the Intercreditor Agreement together with the Security Documents, the receivables of the Noteholders and the
Security Agent will also be secured by the Additional Security. 
  

	3.9	 Enforcement of the Additional Security and Other Decisions 

Pursuant to Section 20a(7) of the Czech Bonds Act, the Noteholders will not have any direct rights under the Security Documents and will not be able to
exercise any separate authorisation, right or remedy regarding any Additional Security or grant consent or waive the right to the Additional Security or make any direct use of any Additional Security if such rights are exercised by the Security
Agent. None of the Noteholders will be entitled to ask the Security Agent independently to act in any way in relation to the Additional Security. 

  
 43/123 

 Before the Security Agent commences the enforcement of the Additional Security, the Security Agent must
convene a Meeting at the Issuer’s expense in accordance with Condition 12.1.1 of the Terms and Conditions. The Meeting will decide whether the Security Agent is to commence the enforcement of the Additional Security or take other steps in
relation to the Additional Security or the procedures set out in the Intercreditor Agreement (the Enforcement Decision). The Security Agent is not obliged to fulfil that Enforcement Decision if the Intercreditor Agreement does not allow such
conduct of the Security Agent or orders the Security Agent to act otherwise or refrain from acting, or if the Security Agent lacks the consent required under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. The Enforcement Decision must be approved by a
simple majority of votes of the Noteholders present and must contain the manner of enforcement of the Additional Security in accordance with the Security Documents and the applicable regulations. The Enforcement Decision is binding on the Security
Agent and all Noteholders. 
 The Security Agent will start to proceed in accordance with the Enforcement Decision without undue delay after the Enforcement
Decision has been delivered to it. The Security Agent will inform the Noteholders about the status of the enforcement of the Additional Security by publishing on its website at the address or section published on the Issuer’s website in the
manner set forth in Condition 14 which will be posted there without undue delay after the Security Agent has been appointed, and documents related to the enforcement of the Additional Security will be available for inspection by the Noteholders
during normal business hours at the Specified Office as set out in Condition 11.1.1. 
  

	3.10	 Use of Proceeds 

The Security Agent will use (and is obliged to proceed thus under the Security Agent Agreement) any proceeds from the Additional Security that it receives,
inter alia, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, as follows: 
  

	(a)	 first, to cover all payments due to the Security Agent in connection with the performance of its office
(excluding the Security Agent’s remuneration), including any costs and expenses related to the enforcement of the Security, unless such payments have been made otherwise; 

 

	(b)	 second, to pay the Security Agent’s remuneration up to a maximum of 4.00% of the proceeds from the
enforcement of the Additional Security; 

  

	(c)	 third, to pay the proportionate amount of any indemnification paid to the Security Agent by the Noteholders;

  

	(d)	 fourth, to pay the proportionate amount of any due and outstanding principal of, and due and outstanding
interest on, the Notes to the Noteholders; and 

  

	(e)	 fifth, to refund any surplus to the relevant Security Provider. 

The principal and interest accrued on the Notes under paragraph (d) above will be paid by the Security Agent through the Fiscal and Paying Agent. The
Security Agent will inform the Noteholders of the distribution of these proceeds among the Noteholders by publishing it on its website at the address or in the section published on the Issuer’s website in the manner set out in Condition 14,
which will be posted there without undue delay after the Security Agent has been appointed. In the case of enforcement of the Additional Security as part of the Issuer’s insolvency proceedings, the rules for the distribution of the proceeds
from the realisation of the Additional Security will be adjusted in accordance with the statutory conditions. 

  
 44/123 

	4	 Obligations of the Issuer 

 

	4.1	 Obligation not to Create a Security 

So long as any of its liabilities from the Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer must not create, or enable the creation of, any Security of the Indebtedness
that would fully or partially restrict the Issuer’s rights to its current or future assets or income, unless, at the same time or prior to the creation of the Security, the Issuer ensures that (i) the Issuer’s liabilities under the
Notes are equally and rateably secured therewith under the applicable law of the relevant jurisdiction or secured by such other security as may be approved by the Meeting’s resolution; or (ii) the creation of the Security is approved by
the Meeting by a Qualified Majority in accordance with Condition 12. 
 The preceding paragraph will not apply to any (existing or future) Security if, at
the time of, or immediately before, the creation of the Security there is no Event of Default and no Event of Default occurs or is imminent as a result of the creation of the Security, and if the Security: 

 

	(a)	 exists on the Issue Date; 

 

	(b)	 pertains to shares, ownership interests or similar direct or indirect shareholdings or interests in the Issuer
or any of its Subsidiaries insofar as the Security relates to financing provided to the Issuer for the purpose of acquiring direct or indirect shareholdings in companies or other legal entities, including refinancing and the early or regular
repayment of liabilities resulting from such loan financing; 

  

	(c)	 is attached to, or has been created over, the Issuer’s assets in connection with the entering into
contractual or other similar arrangements by the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries in order to refinance, prepay or duly pay the liabilities from the Notes; or 

 

	(d)	 is created by operation of law or under a judicial or administrative decision or arbitration award, if in the
judicial or administrative proceedings leading to the issuance of the judicial or administrative decision the Issuer acted actively and protected its interests in good faith; or 

 

	(e)	 pertains to receivables from the Issuer’s bank accounts, provided that the Security relates to credit
financing provided to the Issuer for the purpose of acquiring direct or indirect shareholdings in companies or other legal entities. 

  

	4.2	 Obligation to Maintain the Net Indebtedness Ratio 

The Issuer undertakes to ensure that the indicator of the Net Indebtedness Ratio will not reach or exceed the Permitted Level until the repayment of all Notes
issued and fulfilment of the obligations arising therefrom. 
 Promptly after the Issuer has learned that the Net Indebtedness Ratio has reached or exceeded
the Permitted Level, the Issuer must notify it to the Fiscal and Paying Agent, and the Security Agent if Additional Security has been provided, and to the Noteholders. Within 20 Business Days after the Issuer has duly notified the fact pursuant to
the preceding sentence, the Ultimate Controlling Person or any of its Subsidiaries may carry out or ensure rectification of the Net Indebtedness Ratio by increasing the Issuer’s registered capital, providing a contribution outside the
Issuer’s registered capital, providing subordinated debt in relation to the Notes or otherwise (the Rectification). After each Rectification, the Issuer is obliged, without undue delay and no later than 25 Business Days from the day on
which it became aware of the breach and notified it to the Fiscal and Paying Agent and the Security Agent, if Additional Security has been provided, to prove the reduction of the Net Indebtedness Ratio below the Permitted Level to the Fiscal and
Paying Agent and the Security Agent, if Additional Security has been provided, and publish it in the manner set out in Condition 14, together with a confirmation issued by persons authorised to act on behalf of the Issuer to the effect that the Net
Indebtedness Ratio, after the Rectification, did not reach or exceed the Permitted Level; in the confirmation, when determining the Net Indebtedness Ratio, the Issuer will take into account the Rectification by adding the funds received to the
relevant accounting data. 

  
 45/123 

	4.3	 Indebtedness 

The Issuer undertakes and will ensure that, so long as any of its liabilities from the Notes remain outstanding, its Indebtedness will not increase and no new
Indebtedness of the Issuer will be created unless: 
  

	(a)	 the Indebtedness is incurred on an arm’s length basis corresponding to a transaction of this type;

  

	(b)	 the Net Indebtedness Ratio for the Relevant Period that immediately precedes the date on which such additional
Indebtedness is incurred, after reflecting the Indebtedness on a pro forma basis, does not reach or exceed the Permitted Level; and 

  

	(c)	 there is no Event of Default and no Event of Default may occur as a result of such Indebtedness.

 The restriction in this Condition 4.3 does not apply to any (i) Indebtedness that is created by operation of law or under a
judicial or administrative decision against the Issuer, if in the judicial or administrative proceedings leading to the issuance of the judicial or administrative decision the Issuer acted actively and protected its interests in good faith,
(ii) Indebtedness during the creation of which there are refinanced, prepaid or duly paid the liabilities from the Notes by the Issuer; and (iii) Indebtedness of the Issuer in the form of a subordinated loan or subordinated borrowing

Subsidiaries, with any Subsidiary of the Ultimate Controlling Person or with the Ultimate Controlling Person otherwise than on an arm’s length basis. 
  

	4.7	 Disposal of Assets 

The Issuer undertakes and ensures that neither it nor its Subsidiary, before the repayment of all its liabilities under the Notes in full, sells, invests in
the registered or other capital of another company, leases, transfers or otherwise disposes of its assets within one or more transactions (the Disposal); related Disposals, especially if they are carried out in a single transaction, are
counted as one Disposal for the purposes of the limit set out below. The foregoing restrictions do not apply to any Disposal between the Issuer and the Subsidiaries or among the Subsidiaries. 

The Issuer or its Subsidiary may execute the Disposal if (i) the transaction is executed on an arm’s length basis, (ii) the transaction is paid
in cash or, if the transaction is not fully paid in cash and if the total value of the transaction reaches at least EUR 40 million, then within 30 Business Days after the Disposal is executed, the Issuer must publish and make available to the
Noteholders in the manner set out in Condition 14 an opinion prepared by the Chosen Auditor or an independent expert determining the value of performance and consideration in the transaction, together with a confirmation that the transaction was

within 10 Business Days and publish the notification pursuant to Condition 14 of the Terms and Conditions, together with a confirmation issued by persons authorised to act on behalf of the Issuer to the effect that the Net Indebtedness Ratio has not
reached or exceeded the Permitted Level due to the Disposal. Condition 4.8 will apply to the manner of processing and issuing a confirmation that this obligation has not been breached accordingly. 

 

	4.8	 Restrictions on Distributions 

Until the repayment of all its debts under the Notes in full, the Issuer will not make any direct or indirect payment of any subordinated debt (including
interest payments) to any direct or indirect shareholders (the Shareholders), or propose any resolution on distribution, or distribute or pay any dividend, other share of profit, share in the registered capital or equity, other payment
related to its capital, interest on unpaid dividends, other payment or similar amount (e.g. dividend advance or interest on unpaid dividends), or provide any credit, loan, (obligation or in rem) security or affirmation, or repay debt (the
Distribution) in favour of the Shareholders or any other Subsidiaries of the Ultimate Controlling Person if: 
  

	(a)	 as a result of that Distribution, the Net Indebtedness Ratio would exceed 4.2; or 

 

	(b)	 at the time of, or immediately before, the Distribution there is an Event of Default or an Event of Default
would occur or would be imminent as a result of the Distribution.

breached the obligation referred to in paragraph (a) above, the Issuer is obliged to calculate the Net Indebtedness Ratio on the basis of its most recent audited financial statements or the latest unaudited financial statements available as of
the Payment 

  
 47/123 

 Date taking into account any Distributions made from the date of such financial statements on a pro
forma basis, and the relevant Distribution can be made only if the Issuer, no later than the date of such Distribution, publishes and makes available to the Fiscal and Paying Agent the relevant accounting statements together with a confirmation
showing that the Distribution does not violate the Net Indebtedness Ratio (the Ad Hoc Confirmation). The Issuer is obliged to provide an ad hoc confirmation to the Fiscal and Paying Agent and the Security Agent if the Additional
Security has been provided as a result of the Issuer’s obligation under Condition 4.4, within 10 Business Days of the date the Issuer decided to make the intended Distribution, but always prior to its execution; the Issuer is obliged to publish
it at the same time in the manner specified in Condition 14. 
  

	4.9	 Information Duties 

In writing, the Issuer must inform the Fiscal and Paying Agent and the Noteholders of (i) any Event of Default and (ii) any Change of Control (as the

	4.10	 Definitions 

The below terms have the below meanings (if a term used in this Condition is not defined, it has the meaning assigned to it in the IFRS): 

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial indicator of the profitability of a SAZKA Group Member that shows operating performance, excluding the impact of

licences granted to the SAZKA Group Members up to a total aggregate amount of EUR 3,000,000, or (ii) funds deposited in accounts intended to pay debt service to banks, unless there is a requirement to collect these funds by an authorised
beneficiary other than a SAZKA Group Member. 

 Chosen Auditor means any reputable auditor company providing auditor services in
accordance with the law of the relevant jurisdiction. 
 IFRS means International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS and IFRIC Interpretation), as
amended and adopted by European Union legislation, which are consistently applied. 

  
 49/123 

 Indebtedness means any below indebtedness of a SAZKA Group Member that will, except for indebtedness
described in paragraphs (g) and (h) below, be considered as a liability recognised in the balance sheet according to IFRS of the relevant SAZKA Group Member (if certain indebtedness has elements of more than one category of Indebtedness,
it will be counted only once): 
  

	(a)	 borrowed funds, with the exception of shareholder loans subordinated to the Issue; 

 

	(b)	 note purchase facility or bond issue (including the Notes), debentures, loan stock or any other similar
instrument;

	(d)	 factoring or any other assignment of claims for consideration in which there may occur a reassignment of the

	(e)	 acquisition price of assets in the extent in which it is paid after delivery of the assets within a period

	(g)	 any counter-indemnity obligation to a third party that satisfied the borrower’s debt (including a recourse
claim) from a guarantee, indemnity, bond, stand-by letter of credit, documentary letter of credit or any other instrument issued by a bank or a financial institution (except for a supplier credit in connection with ordinary business activities of
the relevant person); or 

  

	(h)	 any other transaction (including forward purchase or sale contracts) that has the business effect of a simple

 For the avoidance of doubt, any debt subordinated pursuant to Section 172 of Act No. 182/2006 Coll., on
Bankruptcy and its Resolution (the Insolvency Act), as amended, or a debt contractually subordinated to the liabilities under the Notes is not included in the calculation of the Indebtedness. 

For the purposes of calculation of the Net Indebtedness Ratio, the term Indebtedness will not include the item referred to in paragraph (f). 

Net Indebtedness means, in relation to a SAZKA Group Member, its Indebtedness after deducting the total amount of cash and Cash Equivalents and
Short-term financial assets of the relevant SAZKA Group Member, excluding internal relations under the terms set out immediately below. 
 For the purposes
of determining the Net Indebtedness, internal relations among the Subsidiaries are excluded under the rules of IFRS consolidation. Internal relations among the SAZKA Group Members under the equity method or between a SAZKA Group Member and a
Subsidiary are not excluded. 
 Net Indebtedness Ratio means, as of the record date, the ratio of Pro-Rata Net Indebtedness to Pro-Rata Adjusted
EBITDA for the last completed Relevant Period for which the financial statements are available immediately before the record date, and where the Net Indebtedness Ratio is determined as of a date other than 30 June or 31 December, the
following shall be used to determine it: (a) Pro-Rata Net Indebtedness determined as of a date which may not precede the record date by more than 60 days that will be, for the purposes of Condition 4.4, further adjusted by the relevant
Rectification, and (b) Pro-Rata Adjusted EBITDA determined for the last completed Relevant Period immediately preceding the record date and for 

  
 50/123 

 which the financial statements are available, provided that the financial statements are prepared as of a
date preceding the record date by more than six months, the Pro-Rata Adjusted EBITDA must include another complete fiscal quarter regardless of whether or not the entity prepares quarterly financial statements, and in the case of CASINOS AUSTRIA AG,
which does not, and until it does, prepare quarterly financial statements, the most recent financial statements available and not older than 16 months will be used. For the avoidance of doubt, if the calculation of the Net Indebtedness Ratio takes
account of, in the indicator of the pro-rata adjusted EBITDA, transactions with a pro forma effect, the Indebtedness relating to those transactions must also be taken into account in the indicator of Pro-rata Net Indebtedness. 

Permitted Level means: 
  

	(a)	 as of dates preceding 31 December 2020, 4.75; and 

 

	(b)	 as of date(s) falling on or after 31 December 2020, 4.5. 

Pro-Rata Adjusted EBITDA means the sum of the pro-rata Adjusted EBITDA of the SAZKA Group Members and, for the purpose of calculating the
pro-rata Adjusted EBITDA, the Adjusted EBITDA of an individual SAZKA Group Member is multiplied by a percentage which corresponds to the size of the direct or indirect shareholding of the Issuer in that SAZKA Group Member. 

If any acquisition, divestment, increase or decrease in shares of the registered capital or a similar event occurs in a SAZKA Group Member by the Issuer or
any other company in which the Issuer has a direct or indirect shareholding after the first day of the Relevant Period, the Adjusted EBITDA will have, for the purposes of calculation, a pro forma effect determined in good faith by the
Issuer’s accountant, as if this event took place on the first day of the Relevant Period (if any item is to be included in multiple Adjusted EBITDA used for the purposes of calculating the Pro-Rata Adjusted EBITDA, that item will only be
counted once). In determining the Adjusted EBITDA of a SAZKA Group Member for the purpose of calculating the Adjusted EBITDA, the accounting statements available for the latest Relevant Period ending on 31 December may be used, unless the
Issuer has the latest half-year accounting statements available for that SAZKA Group Member. 
 Pro-Rata Net Indebtedness means the sum of the
Pro-Rata Net Indebtedness of all SAZKA Group Members and, for the purpose of calculating the Pro-Rata Net Indebtedness, the Net Indebtedness of an individual SAZKA Group Member is multiplied by a percentage which corresponds to the size
of the direct or indirect shareholding of the Issuer in that SAZKA Group Member and in relation to the Issuer at 100%. The Pro-Rata Net Indebtedness indicator is included in the calculation of the Net Indebtedness Ratio. 

Relevant Period means each 12-month period ending on 30 June and 31 December; the first Relevant Period will end on 30 June 2019. 

SAZKA Group means the Issuer, any of its Subsidiaries or a company that is accounted for using the equity method in the Issuer’s consolidated
accounting statements. 
 SAZKA Group Member means the Issuer, a Subsidiary or a company that is accounted for using the equity method in the
Issuer’s consolidated accounting statements. The accounting (financial) data are based on accounting documents for the preparation of the Issuer’s consolidation with the Subsidiaries or on separate accounting statements of companies
accounted for using the equity method. If there is a sub-consolidation unit in the SAZKA Group under the Issuer, it is possible to use consolidated accounting statements at the level of that sub-consolidation instead of using individual accounting
statements in the given sub-consolidation. As of the Issue Date, the Issuer uses sub-consolidations in respect of companies owned by Hellenic Football Prognostic Organisation S.A. and CASINOS AUSTRIA AG. 

Security means any pledge, security assignment of a right, lien or any other form of in rem security, including (among others) any similar
institute under the law of any jurisdiction. 

  
 51/123 

 Special Items mean any one-off items of more than EUR 2,000,000 or the equivalent of this amount in
any other currency, of unusual or non-repetitive nature, constituting profits or losses included in operating profit. 
 In relation to the calculation of
all indicators set out in this Condition 4.10, if any value has elements of more than one category of values for the calculation of the relevant indicator coefficient, it will be counted only once. 

If the Issuer undertakes in the Terms and Conditions to ensure that a third party meets any obligation, the Issuer undertakes this within the meaning of
Section 1769, second sentence, of the Civil Code, i.e. that the Issuer will compensate for any damage incurred by the Noteholders if the third party fails to meet that obligation. For the avoidance of doubt, the first sentence of
Section 1769 of the Civil Code will not apply in such an event. 
  

	5	 Interest 

 

	5.1	 Interest Rate, Interest Period 

The Notes will bear a fixed interest rate of 5.20% p.a. (the Interest Rate). The interest will accrue evenly from the first day of each Interest Period
to the last day included in such Interest Period. The interest will be paid for each Interest Period half-yearly in arrears, always as of 23 March and 23 September of each year (the Interest Payment Date), in accordance with
Condition 7 and with the Agency Agreement. The first payment of interest will be made as of 23 March 2020. 
  

	5.2	 End of Interest Accrual 

The Notes will cease to bear interest on the Final Maturity Date of the Notes or the Early Redemption Date of the Notes, unless the payment of any due amount
is unlawfully retained or refused by the Issuer although all relevant conditions and requirements for payment of the due amount have been complied with. In such an event, interest will continue to accrue at the interest rate set out in Condition 5.1
until the earlier of (i) the date on which all amounts due and payable as of that date in accordance with these Terms and Conditions are paid to the Noteholders or (ii) the date on which the Fiscal and Paying Agent notifies the Noteholders
that it has received all amounts payable in connection with the Notes, unless any additional unlawful retention or refusal of payments occurs after such a notification. 
  

	5.3	 Day Count Convention for Interest Calculation 

The interest payable on the Notes for a period of less than one year will be calculated on the basis of the “BCK standard 30E/360” day count
convention, (i.e. a year will be deemed to consist of 360 days divided into 12 months of 30 calendar days each, whereas in the event of an incomplete month the number of days actually lapsed will apply). 

 

	5.4	 Calculation of Interest 

The amount of interest accrued on a Note over any period of less than one standard year will be calculated as the multiple of the outstanding nominal amount of
the Note, the relevant interest rate (expressed in decimal form) and the relevant day-count fraction determined according to the day count convention under Condition 5.3. The total interest amount and any other amount payable under these Terms and
Conditions pertaining to one Note and calculated according to this Condition 5.4 will be rounded by the Fiscal and Paying Agent to two decimal places using mathematical rules and, without undue delay, will be notified to the Noteholders in
accordance with Condition 14. 

  
 52/123 

	6	 Redemption and Purchase of the Notes 

 

	6.1	 Final Maturity 

Unless previously redeemed or purchased by the Issuer and cancelled as specified below, each Note will be redeemed by the Issuer at its outstanding nominal
amount in a single payment as of the Final Maturity Date of the Notes. 
  

	6.2	 Purchase of the Notes 

The Issuer may purchase the Notes at any time on the market or otherwise for any price. 

 

	6.3	 Cancellation of the Notes 

Notes purchased by the Issuer will not be cancelled, unless otherwise decided by the Issuer. Unless the Issuer decides to cancel the Notes purchased by it, it
may transfer the Notes at its own discretion. 
  

	6.4	 Early Redemption at the Option of the Issuer 

Beginning two years after the Issue Date (inclusive), the Issuer has the right to redeem early all outstanding Notes (in part or in full), and may exercise
this right only if it notifies the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 no later than 37 days before the relevant early redemption date (the Early Redemption Date). The Issuer may only partially redeem the Notes as of an Early
Redemption Date that is an Interest Payment Date. The Issuer may repay all or part of the outstanding nominal amount of the Notes, the relevant interest income accruing on the amount of the early repaid nominal amount of the Notes as of the Early
Redemption Date and the extraordinary interest income determined as 1/60 of the annual Interest Rate on the total amount of the early repaid nominal amount of the Notes multiplied by the number of full months remaining from the relevant Early
Redemption Date until the Final Maturity Date of the Notes, the number of full months being rounded down. 
 The Early Redemption Notice at the option of
the Issuer under this Condition 6.4 is irrevocable and obliges the Issuer to redeem the Notes early in accordance with the provisions of this Condition 6.4. 

The Issuer may pay the extraordinary interest income only as of the Early Redemption Date being the Interest Payment Date, while otherwise the provisions of
these Terms and Conditions on the payment of the nominal amount of the Notes will apply accordingly to the payment of the extraordinary interest income. The early partial redemption of the Notes does not restrict the Issuer from making any further
early redemption of the Notes in accordance with this Condition 6.4. 
 To the early redemption of the Notes under this Condition 6.4 there will otherwise
apply the provisions of Condition 7 with the necessary modifications. 
  

	6.5	 Early Redemption at the Option of the Noteholders 

For the purposes of this Condition, a Change of Control means a situation where the Ultimate Controlling Person or a person controlled by the Ultimate
Controlling Person: 
  

	(a)	 ceases to hold, directly or indirectly, more than a 50% participation in the registered capital of, or voting
rights in, the Issuer; or 

  

	(b)	 loses the right to appoint more than a half of the members of the Issuer’s governing or supervisory body.

 If a Change of Control occurs, a Noteholder may, at its own discretion, request early redemption of its Notes before the Final Maturity
Date of the Notes, by a written notice addressed to the Issuer and delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent to the address of the Specified Office (the Early Redemption Notice), 

  
 53/123 

 always for 100% of the outstanding nominal amount of its Notes on the Early Redemption Date of the Notes (as
it is defined below) increased by extraordinary interest of 1% of the outstanding nominal amount of the Notes and interest accrued and due as of the Early Redemption Date of the Notes (as it is defined below), and redemption must be carried out
within (and including) 30 days after the Noteholder delivered the Early Redemption Notice to the Fiscal and Paying Agent (the Early Redemption Date of the Notes). 

The Early Redemption Notice at the option of the Noteholders must be delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent no later than 30 days after the day when the
Noteholder learned, or could have learned, about the Change of Control. 
 This is without prejudice to the right of the Noteholder to request early
redemption of 100% of the nominal amount of the Notes and the payment of the related accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes in accordance with Conditions 9 and 12.4.1. 

To the early redemption of the Notes under this Condition 6.5 there will otherwise apply the provisions of Condition 7 with the necessary modifications. 

 

	6.6	 Presumption of Redemption 

All the Issuer’s liabilities from the Notes will be considered fully satisfied on the day when the Issuer pays to the Fiscal and Paying Agent all the
amounts of the nominal amount of the Notes and accrued interest (where relevant) payable under Conditions 6, 9 and 12.4.1. 
  

	7	 Payment Terms 

 

	7.1	 Currency of Payments 

The Issuer undertakes to pay interest on, and repay the nominal amount of, the Notes solely in the Czech Koruna (CZK), or in any other lawful currency of the
Czech Republic that may replace the Czech Koruna. Interest will be paid and the nominal amount of the Notes will be repaid to the Noteholders subject to and in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and the tax, foreign exchange and other
applicable laws of the Czech Republic in effect at the time of the relevant payment. 
 In the event that the Czech Koruna in which the Notes are
denominated and in which the payments relating to the Notes should be made in compliance with these Terms and Conditions ceases to exist and is replaced by the euro, (i) the denomination of the Notes will be changed to the EUR in conformity
with the applicable laws, and (ii) all monetary liabilities arising from the Notes will automatically and without any further notice to the Noteholders be payable in the euro, with the official rate (i.e. the fixed conversion ratio) being in
accordance with the applicable law being used as the exchange rate between the Czech Koruna and the euro. Such replacement of the Czech Koruna (i) will not, in any respect, affect the existence or enforceability of the Issuer’s liabilities
under the Notes, and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, will not be deemed to constitute any change of the Terms and Conditions or any Event of Default under these Terms and Conditions. 

 

	7.2	 Payment Date 

The payment of interest on, and the repayment of the nominal amount of, the Notes will be made by the Issuer through the Fiscal and Paying Agent on the dates
specified in these Terms and Conditions, i.e. according to its meaning, as of the Interest Payment Date or the Final Maturity Date of the Notes or the Early Redemption Date of the Notes (each of these dates also as the Payment Date). 

  
 54/123 

	7.3	 Business Day Convention 

If any Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, such Payment Date will instead fall on the next following Business Day, and the Issuer will not
be obliged to pay any interest or any other additional charges by reason of such delay in payment resulting from the application of any Business Day convention. 
  

	7.4	 Determination of the Right to Receive Payments Related to the Notes 

Authorised Persons to whom the Issuer will pay interest on the Notes or the nominal amount of the Notes are the persons in whose owner’s securities
accounts in the Central Depositary or records of the person keeping the follow-up records linked to the Central Depositary the Notes are registered at the end of the relevant Record Date for Payment, unless it is convincingly proven to the Issuer
and the Fiscal and Paying Agent, no later than five Business Days after the relevant Record Date for Payment, that the entry in the owner’s securities account in the Central Depositary or the follow-up records linked to the Central Depositary
does not correspond to reality and that there is another person or persons in whose owner’s securities accounts in the Central Depositary or the follow-up records linked to the Central Depositary the Notes should have been registered at the end
of the relevant Record Date for Payment. In such a case, the Issuer will pay interest on the Notes or the nominal amount of the Notes to such person or persons (the Authorised Persons). 

For the purposes of determining the recipient of the interest on the Notes or the nominal amount of the Notes, neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal and Paying
Agent will take into account any transfer of any Notes registered in the Central Depositary or in the follow-up records linked to the Central Depositary after the Record Date for Payment. 

Unless it is contrary to the valid legal regulations, transfers of the Notes may be suspended for the purposes of payment of the nominal amount of the Notes
beginning on the day immediately following the Record Date for Payment until the relevant Payment Date. 
 If, according to the entry in the owner’s
securities account kept with the Central Depositary, the Notes are pledged, then the pledgee, recorded in the extract from the register of the Issue prepared by the Central Depositary at the end of the Record Date for Payment, will be considered an
authorised person in respect of the distribution of interest or other income and the nominal amount of the Notes, unless (i) it is evident from the extract that the person authorised to receive the payments of interest attached to the pledged
Notes is the respective Noteholder and/or (ii) it is proven to the Fiscal and Paying Agent in other satisfactory manner that the respective Noteholder has the right to receive the payments of interest attached to the pledged Notes by virtue of
an agreement between that Noteholder and the pledgee. 
 If an Authorised Person request the making of a payment through a proxy, the Fiscal and Paying
Agent will make the payment only after the producing of the original or an officially certified copy of a power of attorney; the signature of the Authorised Person on the power of attorney must be officially certified, unless otherwise stipulated by
generally binding legal regulations. Documents issued abroad must be superlegalised or must be equipped with an apostille, unless otherwise stipulated by the relevant international treaty binding on the Czech Republic. 

Any documents produced by Authorised Persons or the Issuer to the Fiscal and Paying Agent in connection with payments to Authorised Persons must be in the
Czech or English language or translated into Czech by a sworn translator, unless otherwise stipulated in these Terms and Conditions or unless otherwise agreed with the consent of the Fiscal and Paying Agent. 

 

	7.5	 Payments 

The Fiscal and Paying Agent will make payments in connection with the Notes to the Authorised Persons by means of wire transfer to their accounts kept with a
bank in a Member State of the European Union or other state that is a member of the European Economic Area, according to an instruction communicated by 

  
 55/123 

 the Authorised Person to the Fiscal and Paying Agent to the address of the Specified Office in a verifiable
manner no less than five Business Days prior to the Payment Date. Such an instruction will be in the form of a written statement with an officially authenticated signature or signatures or a signature verified by an authorised employee of the Fiscal
and Paying Agent, and will contain sufficient details of such bank account to allow the Fiscal and Paying Agent to make the payment, and, if the Authorised Person is a legal entity, it will be accompanied by an original or an officially certified
copy of an extract from the Commercial Register or other similar register in respect of the Authorised Person not older than six months; the compliance with the data in the extract with the instruction will be verified by the Fiscal and Paying Agent
(such instruction, excerpt from the Commercial Register and certificate of tax domicile, and other required appendices, if any (the Instruction)). 

The Instruction must be in accordance with the specific requirements of the Fiscal and Paying Agent in terms of content, form and confirmation of the
authorisation to sign the Instruction on behalf of the Authorised Person, e.g. the Fiscal and Paying Agent is entitled to request (i) submission of a power of attorney including an officially certified translation into Czech or
(ii) additional confirmation of the Instruction from the Authorised Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Fiscal and Paying Agent nor the Issuer will be obliged to examine the correctness, completeness or authenticity of any such
Instruction in any manner whatsoever and neither of them will be liable for any damage incurred in connection with any delay in the delivery of such Instruction by the Authorised Person or with the delivery of an incorrect or otherwise defective
Instruction. The Instruction will be deemed properly made if it contains all the items required by this Condition and is delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent in accordance with this Condition. 

The Instruction will be considered duly delivered if it has been delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent at least five Business Days before the Payment Date.

 Any Authorised Person claiming a tax benefit in accordance with any applicable international double taxation treaty (by which the Czech Republic is
bound) is obliged to deliver to the Fiscal and Paying Agent, together with the Instruction as an integral part thereof, a current proof of its tax domicile as well as other documents that the Fiscal and Paying Agent and the relevant tax authorities
may request. Notwithstanding this authorisation, neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal and Paying Agent will verify the accuracy and completeness of such Instructions and will not be liable for any damage or other harm caused by a delay of the
Authorised Person in delivering the Instruction, its inaccuracy or other defect in such an Instruction. 
 If the above documents (especially the proof of
tax domicile) are not delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent in the stipulated time period, the Fiscal and Paying Agent will act as if it has not been delivered the documents. The Authorised Person may subsequently deliver such documents proving
entitlement to a tax benefit and request the Issuer through the Fiscal and Paying Agent to refund the withholding tax. In such a case, the Issuer has the right to require the Authorised Person to pay all direct and indirect costs incurred for the
refund. 
 The Issuer’s obligation to pay any amount due in connection with the Notes will be deemed discharged in a due and timely manner if the
relevant amount has been remitted to the Authorised Person in compliance with a proper Instruction pursuant to this Condition 7.5 and if such amount is debited from the account of the Fiscal and Paying Agent no later than on the relevant due date.

 Neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal and Paying Agent will be liable for any delay in the payment of any amount due caused by any Authorised Person, e.g. by
its failure to deliver a proper Instruction in a timely manner. If any Authorised Person fails to deliver to the Fiscal and Paying Agent in time a proper Instruction, the Issuer’s obligation to pay any due amount will be considered met duly and
in time if such amount has been remitted to the Authorised Person in accordance with a subsequently delivered due Instruction pursuant to this Condition 7.5 and if such amount has been debited from the Fiscal and Paying Agent’s account no later
than ten Business Days following the day on which the Fiscal and Paying Agent received the proper Instruction. In such an event, the Authorised Person will not have the right to any 

  
 56/123 

 interest or any yield or additional payment for the time of delay caused by the late sending of the
Instruction. 
 Neither the Issuer nor the Fiscal and Paying Agent will be liable for any damage incurred by (i) the failure to deliver in time the
proper Instruction or any other documents or information required to be delivered under this Condition 7.5, or (ii) such Instruction or any related document or information being incorrect, incomplete or untrue, or (iii) circumstances
beyond the control of the Issuer or the Fiscal and Paying Agent. In such an event, the Authorised Person will not have the right to any additional payment, compensation or interest for the time of delay caused by the late sending of the Instruction.

  

	7.6	 Change in the Payment Method 

The Issuer and the Fiscal and Paying Agent are jointly entitled to elect to change the payment procedure, unless such change may adversely affect the position
or interests of the Noteholders. The Noteholders will be notified of such change in the manner set out in Condition 14. In other cases, such change will be subject to decision by the Meeting in accordance with Condition 12. 

 

	8	 Taxation 

Unless otherwise provided by a law or an international treaty binding on the Czech Republic, the Issuer will not be liable for the payment of any taxes or
incur any obligation to pay any taxes in connection with the Notes, in particular as a result of ownership, transfer or exercise of rights under the Notes. 

The Note income paid to individuals or legal entities that are Czech tax non-residents or individuals that are Czech tax residents is generally subject to
withholding tax levied at source (i.e. by the Issuer when paying the interest on the Notes). If income is subject to withholding tax, the Issuer is responsible for the withholding of taxes at source. 

If the ownership or transfer of, or exercise of rights under, the Notes is subject to any tax, the Issuer will not be obliged to pay to the Noteholders any
amounts as compensation of any such tax. 
 Tax laws of the Czech Republic and tax laws of the investor’s member state may have an impact on the income
resulting from the Notes. 
  

	9	 Early Redemption of the Notes upon the Occurrence of Events of Default 

 

	9.1	 Events of Default 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, where for the purposes of this Condition 9.1 an Event of Default is deemed to “be continuing” until
it is remedied, the Meeting convened in accordance with Condition 12.1.1 may decide that any Noteholder may, at its own discretion, by a written notice addressed to the Issuer and delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent to the address of the
Specified Office (the Early Redemption Notice), request an early redemption of the at the time outstanding nominal amount of all the Notes held by it which the Noteholder has not disposed of until that time, together with the accrued and
unpaid interest on the Notes pursuant to Condition 5.1, as of the Early Redemption Date of the Notes, and the Issuer must redeem the Notes (together with the accrued and unpaid interest) in accordance with Condition 9.2. 

Unless the Meeting convened pursuant to the preceding paragraph decides that the Noteholders may request an early redemption of the Notes, each Noteholder who
voted according to the minutes of that Meeting for an early redemption or who did not attend the Meeting may, at its discretion, submit an Early Redemption Notice and request an early redemption of the Notes held by it as of the Meeting Attendance
Record Date (as defined below) and not disposed of thereafter and the accrued and unpaid interest on those Notes in accordance with Condition 5.1, as of the Early Redemption Date of the Notes, and the Issuer is obliged to redeem such Notes (together
with accrued and unpaid interest) in accordance with Condition 9.2. 

  
 57/123 

 Event of Default means any of the following situations: 

 

	(a)	 Payment Default 

Any payment payable to the Noteholders with respect to the Notes is not paid on the due date and the default remains unremedied for more than 10 Business Days
after the date on which the Issuer was informed of this fact in writing by any Noteholder by a letter addressed to the Issuer and delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent to the address of the Specified Office. 

 

	(b)	 Breach of Other Obligations 

The Issuer breaches or fails to meet any of its other material obligations (other than those set out in paragraph (a) above) in connection with the Notes
(for the avoidance of doubt, as such obligation (i) is considered always the breach of any of the Issuer’s obligations set out in Condition 4 (and in relation to the breach of the obligation to maintain the Net Indebtedness Ratio, the
breach of the Issuer’s obligation is counted from the beginning regardless of the time limit for Rectification), (ii) but is not considered any fact creating the right of a Noteholder to require early redemption pursuant to Condition 6.5),
and the breach of, or failure to meet, the obligation is not remedied within (and including) 20 Business Days after the date on which the Issuer was informed of this fact in writing by any Noteholder by a letter addressed to the Issuer and delivered
to the Fiscal and Paying Agent to the address of the Specified Office. 
  

	(c)	 Cross Default 

Any debt of the Issuer or a Major Company, which in aggregate reaches at least EUR 40 million or its equivalent in any other currency, (i) becomes
prematurely due before the original maturity date other than at the option of the Issuer or Major Company or (provided that there has been no event of default, however indicated) at the option of the creditor and is not paid within 10 Business Days,
unless in the meantime the debt ceases to exist, or (ii) is not paid when it becomes due and such delay lasts more than 10 Business Days, unless this debt ceases to exist in the meantime. Cross default pursuant to this paragraph will not occur
if the Issuer or a Major Company acting reasonably, after careful consideration and in good faith, duly invokes, in the manner prescribed by law, the absence of an obligation to comply with its amount or reason and makes payment within the time
limit imposed by a final decision of the competent court or other authority which ruled that the Issuer or Major Company is obliged to fulfil that obligation. 
  

	(d)	 Termination of Business Activities 

The Issuer or a Major Company ceases its business or ceases to carry out its principal business or ceases to hold a valid licence or permit to pursue its
principal business (Termination of Business Activities) if such Termination of Business Activities resulted in a decrease in the Pro-Rata Adjusted EBITDA for the particular Relevant Period by at least 10% compared to the immediately preceding
Relevant Period. 
  

	(e)	 Insolvency or Insolvency Petition 

(A) The Issuer or a Major Company proposes to the court to initiate insolvency proceedings, declare bankruptcy of its assets, permit reorganisation or debt
relief or similar proceedings (the Insolvency Petition), the purpose of which is to collectively or gradually satisfy creditors under applicable law; (B) the assets of the Issuer or a Major Company are declared bankrupt by a court or
other competent authority, a reorganisation or debt relief is allowed or any other similar proceedings are initiated; (C) the Insolvency Petition is rejected by the competent authority on the grounds that the Issuer’s assets or assets of
the Major Company would not cover the costs and expenses of the proceedings; or (D) the Issuer or a Major Company proposes or enters into an agreement to postpone, set a schedule or otherwise adjust all of its debts on the grounds that it is
unable to settle them at maturity. 

  
 58/123 

	(f)	 Liquidation 

A final decision of an authority of the relevant jurisdiction or a decision of the relevant body of the Issuer or a Major Company is adopted on dissolution
with liquidation. 
  

	(g)	 Judicial and Other Decisions 

The Issuer or a Major Company fails to comply with the payment obligation finally imposed by the competent authority which, individually or in aggregate,
exceeds EUR 40 million or its equivalent in another currency within the period specified in the relevant decision or within 30 days of receipt of that decision, whichever comes later. 

 

	(h)	 Illegality 

The Issuer’s liabilities under the Notes cease to be fully or partially legally enforceable or become in breach of applicable laws, or for the Issuer it
becomes illegal to meet any of its obligations under these Terms and Conditions of the Notes or in connection with the Notes, and such state is not remedied within (and including) five Business Days. 

 

	(i)	 Restrictions on Transformations 

The Issuer or a Major Company participates in a merger, division, transfer of assets to a shareholder or other transformation, or changes its legal form, or
sells or invests in the registered capital of another company or in any way transfers, pledges or leases its enterprise or any part thereof (the Transformation) unless such Transformation: 

 

	 	(i)	 does not have the effect that the Issuer or the Major Company ceases to be part of the SAZKA Group, and

  

	 	(ii)	 does not have any material adverse effect on the Issuer’s ability to pay its liabilities under the Notes.

  

	(j)	 Listing of the Notes 

The Notes are not admitted to trading on the Regulated Market of the PSE or any other regulated market that replaces the Regulated Market of the PSE (or a
similar market of any PSE successor) as of the Issue Date at the latest or, at any time after that date, cease to be securities admitted to trading on the Regulated Market of the PSE. 

 

	9.2	 Maturity of Notes Redeemed Early 

Any and all amounts payable by the Issuer to any Noteholder will become due and payable as of the last Business Day of the month following the month in which
the Noteholder delivered the relevant Early Redemption Notice to the Issuer to the address of the Specified Office (the Early Redemption Date of the Notes), unless the relevant Event of Default is remedied before the delivery or unless the
Early Redemption Notice is withdrawn in accordance with Condition 9.3. 
  

	9.3	 Withdrawal of Early Redemption Notice 

A Noteholder may withdraw, in writing, the Early Redemption Notice but only with respect to the Notes held by such Noteholder and only if such withdrawal is
addressed to the Issuer and delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent to the address of the Specified Office no later than three Business Days before the relevant amounts become due and payable according to the preceding Condition 9.2. However, any
such withdrawal of the Early Redemption Notice will not affect any Early Redemption Notices given by any other Noteholders.

decide on an early redemption of the Notes and did not decide to extend the time limit for the establishment of the Additional Security and no Additional Security is created until the date of the Meeting, the Person Authorised to Attend the Meeting
who, according to the minutes of such Meeting, voted against a resolution adopted by the Meeting or failed to attend the Meeting (the Applicant) may request the repayment of the at the time outstanding nominal amount of the Notes which such
Noteholder held as of the Meeting Attendance Record Date, together with the pro-rata interest accrued on such Notes, if the Notes are not subsequently transferred after the Meeting. This right must be exercised by the Applicant within 30 days of the
publication date of such Meeting resolution according to Condition 12.5 by a written application (the Application) addressed to the Issuer and delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent to the address of the Specified Office, failing which the
right will cease to exist. The amounts referred to above will become due and payable within 30 days from the date the Application was delivered to the Fiscal and Paying Agent (the Early Redemption Date of the Notes). 

If the Meeting disagrees with a Material Change with the exception of a change of the Terms and Conditions within the meaning of Section 21(1)(a) of the
Czech Bonds Act, i.e. where the consent of the Meeting to change them is required by law, the Meeting may at the same time decide that if the Issuer proceeds in violation of the Meeting’s decision, the Noteholder may require the payment of the

The Syndicated Loan, the Bridge Loan and the Subordinated Loan may also be used partially according to the needs arising from the success of the Voluntary

	3.6	 Investments 

After the balance sheet date of the most recent published audited financial statements, the Issuer has performed the following material investments the nature
of which is outside of the regular scope of the Issuer’s investments and which are important for assessing the Issuer’s solvency: 
 In January
2019, following due diligence, OPAP INVESTMENT LTD agreed to acquire a 51% share of the Greek and Cypriot operations of the Stoiximan betting company for EUR 94,860,000. As a result of this transaction and after approval by the relevant regulatory
and antitrust authorities, OPAP will gain joint control over the Greek and Cypriot operations of Stoiximan Group together with other two shareholders of TCB Holdings Ltd, based on mutual contractual arrangements. In March 2019, EMMA Group, headed by
EMMA CAPITAL Limited (EMMA Group), and KKCG Group, headed by KKCG AG (KKCG Group), 

  
 73/123 

 successfully concluded negotiations on the division of assets in the SAZKA Group. On the basis of the share
transfer agreements of 14 March 2019, EMMA Group acquired a 100% ownership interest in SAZKA Group Adriatic and KKCG Group acquired 25% of the shares in the Issuer and thus became the Issuer’s sole shareholder (Share Transfer
Agreements). The Issuer also retained ownership interests in Czech SAZKA, the Greek OPAP, the Italian LOTTOITALIA and the Austrian CASAG. The transfer of the ownership interest in SAZKA Group Adriatic was settled on 21 May 2019 and this
company thus ceased to be a part of the SAZKA Group.3 The settlement of the transfer of the 25% shares in the Issuer occurred on 11 July 2019 and EMMA GAMMA LIMITED ceased to be an owner of
the Issuer. 
 On 8 July 2019 the Issuer announced the intention to make a Voluntary Tender Offer to all the other owners of shares in OPAP
(Voluntary Tender Offer), who are not engaged in concerted practices. The Issuer and the persons engaged in concerted practices own 32.73% of the shares of OPAP. The Voluntary Tender Offer is valid regardless of the number of shares of OPAP
that will be offered to the Issuer. The Issuer undertakes to take over (a) all the OPAP shares offered, limited only by their total number, i.e. 213,730,000 shares (after excluding the OPAP shares held by the Issuer and the persons engaged in
concerted practices), as well as (b) up to 11,969,268 shares issued by OPAP in connection with the program of reinvesting the remaining dividend for the fiscal year 2018. 

The Issuer offers EUR 9.12 per OPAP share. The Voluntary Tender Offer is not subject to any terms. If the Issuer and the persons engaged in concerting
practices hold at least 90% of the OPAP shares after the completion of the Voluntary Tender Offer, the Issuer will: 
  

	 	•	 	 have the obligation to purchase the remaining shares in OPAP that it is offered within 3 months of the
publication of the results of the Voluntary Tender Offer; and 

  

	 	•	 	 have the right to squeeze out the remaining shareholders who have not accepted the Voluntary Tender Offer within

 at the same price that the Issuer has been offering in the Voluntary
Tender Offer.4

	4	 Business and Objects of the Issuer 

 

	4.1	 Activities Pursued by the Issuer 

The Issuer is a joint-stock company that was established for the purpose of holding, financing and managing ownership interest in lottery and gaming companies.
Among others, the Issuer provides management and administration services to its Subsidiaries. 
 The main activities of the Issuer include investments in
lottery and gaming companies. The SAZKA Group is one of the largest European lottery and gaming groups and operates mainly in continental Europe in the Czech Republic, Greece, Cyprus, Italy and Austria. It is an integrated group that includes a
broad portfolio of lottery and gaming products and draws positive benefits from the tradition of its brands and their popularity among the customers on the local markets. The SAZKA Group consists of four major lottery and gaming companies, which,
together with their subsidiaries, operate more than 63,000 points of sale for all the business segments. As the SAZKA Group does not own these points of sale and most of the assets are intangible, the business model is not particularly demanding in
terms of the ownership of physical assets, with a relatively low need for investments in tangible assets. With regard to the size of the sales network and the growing online distribution, the SAZKA Group is able to serve over 79 million
customers. 

  
 76/123 

 Most revenues and earnings are generated in the numerical lottery and instant lottery segments with a
relatively diversified geographical distribution. The SAZKA Group generates 100% of its revenues on regulated markets and operates all its lotteries, gaming activities and sports betting through government licences and concession agreements, most of
which are exclusive and long-term. The first of the major licences in the Czech Republic for numerical lotteries and lottery tickets will expire in December 2022. 

In the individual countries, the SAZKA Group is through 
  

	 	•	 	 the company SAZKA, the numerical lottery and instant lottery market leader in the Czech Republic;

  

	 	•	 	 the OPAP Group, the holder of an exclusive licence to operate the so-called land-based lotteries, sports betting
and VLTs in Greece, the holder of a licence for the operation of sports betting in Cyprus and the lottery operator in Cyprus on the basis of an inter-governmental treaty; 

 

	 	•	 	 the minority share in the CASAG Group, the exclusive operator of lotteries, casinos and online games in Austria
(including its subsidiary Austrian Lotteries); 

  

	 	•	 	 its stake in the LOTTOITALIA joint venture, the exclusive operator of the Lotto concession in Italy.7 

 At the general level, the countries where the SAZKA Group companies operate in the
area of lotteries are characterised as markets with significant entry barriers in the form of long-term contracts/monopolies with a single lottery operator in the form of a “national champion”, with high brand awareness and important
customer loyalty. 
 The SAZKA Group fully complies with the principles of responsible gambling. The companies in the SAZKA Group - SAZKA, OPAP and Austrian
Lotteries - are certified members of the World Lottery Association (the WLA) and their operations are in accordance with the WLA principles and the framework of the rules arising from the European Responsible Gaming Standards. All the
revenues of the SAZKA Group are subject to local taxation and each SAZKA Group company also complies with the rules of the local regulator. The SAZKA Group focuses on developing its business activities while supporting the prosperity and well-being
of the citizens in the countries where the SAZKA Group operates its activities. 
 Through the SAZKA company in the Czech Republic, the SAZKA Group is the
official partner of the Czech Olympic team and the main partner of the Olympic foundation, which supports children from disadvantaged families. Through the charitable activities of the OPAP Group in Greece, a parts of the “Agia Sophia” and
“P&A Kyriakou” children’s hospitals were refurbished and the overall refurbishment programme of these facilities has been continuing. The OPAP Group also supported 125 sports academies all over Greece. CASAG and the companies
forming its group (the CASAG Group) are long-standing members of the Stiftung Kindertraum foundation, which helps children with disabilities, and are seen as one of the main organisers of various public events such as art exhibitions,
concerts and tournaments intended to help promoting the social and cultural development of the population. The CASAG Group also organises the so-called “Casino on Tour”, which is involved in several charity projects, including projects
supporting arts and cultural development. 
 Main Categories of Activities 

Lotteries and gaming products

 Lotteries 

The category of lotteries includes numerical games. The lottery products can be further divided into jackpot and non-jackpot games. In jackpot games, the
player bets a certain amount of money in an attempt to guess the number that will be drawn. There is a fixed quantity of the numbers in the drawing drum and of those drawn. There are two types of jackpot lotteries: an active lottery, where the
players choose the given numbers and uses the lottery card to indicate the selected numbers, and instant lotteries, or passive lotteries (see the paragraph below), where the player buys the ticket, which already contains the automatically generated
data. Besides conventional lotteries, games such as Keno8 continue to grow in popularity among non-jackpot games. Non-jackpot lottery games also include instant lotteries. Their main
characteristics are provided below. Lottery games now also have their online versions. 
 The overview of the main lotteries of the SAZKA Group is provided
in the table below.

	Italy	  	Lotto	  	guessing 1 to 10 numbers out of 90, with 5 numbers being the winning ones in 11 wheels	  	3 times a week	  	 	1937	 

 Instant lotteries 
 The
most common form of the game involves the customer purchasing the card and then scratching the fields with the winning numbers or symbols and then proceeding to scratch the fields where the numbers or symbols matching the winning ones are hidden.
Pursuant to the amount of matches, which is different for each card, the customer wins the relevant amount. The pay-out ratio in the instant lottery segment is between 50% and 70%. 

In the Czech Republic, SAZKA Group has offered a wide range of instant lotteries under multiple brands (e.g. Rentier, Černá perla, Zlatá
rybka) since 1989; instant lotteries have been offered in Greece since 2014. In Austria, instant lotteries are offered as a part of the multi-game strategy, i.e. multiple instant lotteries, including seasonal ones, in parallel. 

Sportsbook betting 
 Sportsbook betting is based on the
bettor guessing the outcome of the event following a financial deposit - the bet. The organiser of the bet considers the probability of the individual possible outcomes of the event to set the odds. The higher the probability of the outcome the
lower the odds and thus the winning derived from the wager. Analogously, the higher the odds the lower the chance of the outcome for which the odds were set. The odds are always higher than one. There is no upper limit. The bettor who guesses the
outcome correctly wins the wagered amount multiplied by the odds set by the organiser for the given outcome. In case of an incorrect guess, the operator keeps the wagered amount as earnings. Sportsbook bets are most commonly associated with sports
events, followed by political and social events. Sportsbook betting is provided in betting shops, through an external distribution network, or in the form of online betting. Some bookmaking agencies allow clients to place bets over the telephone
with the assistance of an operator. The current market trend of live betting during the individual sporting events has a positive impact on the development of this product portfolio. Live betting is gaining in importance mainly due to the
development of online technologies. 
  

	8 	 In KENO, the player bets on 1 to 10 numbers from 20 numbers drawn out of the total of 80 on the basis of a
playtable or lottery ticket. 

  
 78/123 

 The SAZKA Group offers sportsbook betting through its network of branches in Greece and Austria and through
the online platform in the Czech Republic (under the SAZKA Bet brand since 2009), Greece (under the Pame Stoixima brand since 2000) and Austria (under the Toto and Torwette brands). 

Casinos 
 Casinos are establishments where various types
of games are operated. These establishments are commonly found in, or in the vicinity of, hotels, restaurants and malls. The games usually use gaming chips, which must be purchased in advance. The winnings are also in chips, which are converted into
cash as the player leaves the casino. Casino customers can play gaming machines (slots) or other desktop games that depend on chance (e.g. roulette) or, to a certain greater or lesser degree, on skill (e.g. blackjack, poker). The most popular casino
games include baccarat, blackjack, dice, Keno, roulette, and slots. Casinos have also moved into the online space in recent years. 
 The CASAG Group
operates 12 physical casinos in Austria (an exclusive licence), 4 casinos on boats and 26 physical casinos worldwide. 
 Digital games 

Digital games represent games of chance played over online platforms via websites or mobile applications and, as such, they do not take the physical form of a
ticket. The SAZKA Group offers these games through digital platforms such as eScratches (digital instant lotteries), eCasino and the virtual sports platform in the Czech Republic, Austria and Greece. The pay-out ratio for digital comes is usually
between 74% and 98%. 
 Video lottery terminals (VLTs) 

Gaming machines of this type form a wider network connected to a central computer. Because of this connection, the accumulated prize (jackpot) is contributed
to by all the players within the network; the value of the winnings can thus reach tens of millions EUR. VLTs also have their online versions now. 
 The
SAZKA Group is the exclusive operator of VLTs in Austria through Austrian Lotteries and the exclusive operator of VLTs in Greece through the OPAP Group, which holds a licence for 25 thousand terminals (over 20 thousand terminals were
installed as at the date of this Prospectus). 
 Other products 

In addition to its core products, the SAZKA Group also develops non-lottery services, which are not material due to the overall size of the SAZKA Group. The
other products include, for example, the services of the mobile operator SAZKAmobil in the Czech Republic, financial services (e.g. recharging credit for mobile operator telephone cards, payment of postal orders, etc.) and provision of electronic
payments in Greece (TORA Wallet S.A.). The group also operates an event studio and provides catering for casinos.

 History and Description of the Core Activities 

SAZKA was established in 1956 and is among the most traditional and iconic brands on the entire Czech market. The first numerical lottery, Sportka, was
launched as early as 1957. 
 In 2011 KKCG Group became the co-owner and in 2012 the sole owner of SAZKA. SAZKA is a lottery company based in the Czech
Republic with a major share of the lottery market. The company operates an extensive distribution network consisting of over 11,400 points of sale equipped with an online terminal to provide lottery and non-lottery services. In 2014 and 2015, SAZKA
was the fastest growing lottery company in the world. The growth was caused by the launch of Eurojackpot, expansion of the instant lottery portfolio, and re-launch of traditional draw games. SAZKA also extended the portfolio of its non-lottery
products in the area of sportsbook betting and financial services. It also launched a virtual mobile operator, which is now the largest virtual operator of mobile services in the Czech Republic, with over 200,000 customers as at 31 December
2018. 
 In connection with the new legislation governing online lotteries, SAZKA expanded its products and services in the online lottery and gaming market
in 2017. In the same year, it launched the “Kavárna štěstí” (Lucky Cafe) project as the new distribution channel and acquired the company FORTUNA sázky, a.s., its main competitor on the instant lottery market
and relaunched the “Zlatá rybka” (Goldfish) line of instant lotteries. 
 Regulation 

The Czech lottery and gaming market can be described as an open market. SAZKA is currently the holder of the licence to operate several numerical lotteries,
online numerical lotteries, the Eurojackpot international shared lottery, several dozen instant lotteries, online instant lotteries and online sportsbook bets. The licences were granted to SAZKA by the regulator, which is the Czech Ministry of
Finance, in accordance with Act No. 202/1990 Coll. on lotteries and other similar games (effective from 31 December 2016) and the Gambling Act (effective from 1 January 2017). The Ministry of Finance grants the basic gaming licence on
the basis of an application for the maximum period of 6 years, after which the licence can be granted again subject compliance with the statutory requirements for the basic gaming licence. Because of the new legislation, which introduced new
regulations of the online lottery and gaming market subject to obtaining a licence, SAZKA could expand its portfolio by including online lottery and gaming services in 2017. 

SAZKA currently holds licences to operate the following games: 
  

	 	•	 	 From 24 November 1998, the licence to operate the TOTO SAZKA betting game, the
“Šťastných 10” including “Šance milión”, Keno and Kostky numerical lotteries through points of sale. This licence complies with the transitional provision of the Gambling Act and is valid for 6 years
following the effective date of the Gambling Act, i.e. until 1 January 2023, except the Kostky lottery, which was only licensed until 31 December 2017.

10eLotto games concession for 9 years and the operations began on 30 November 2016. The concession was granted to a consortium consisting of Lottomatica Holding (61.5%), Italian Gaming Holding a.s. (32.5%) and minority investors (6%).

 The operations of CASAG Group are managed from its headquarters in Austria (Vienna). The CASAG Group includes a wide network
of companies worldwide, in particular in Hungary (Sopron), Denmark (Copenhagen, Helsingor, Vejle, Odense), Germany (e.g. Hannover), Czech Republic (Karlovy Vary, Brno), Belgium (Brussels), Macedonia (Skopje), Canada (Port Perry), Liechtenstein
(Vaduz), Georgia (Batumi), Chile (Puerta Arenas), Australia (Cairns), including Switzerland (Lugano, St. Moritz, Bern). The CASAG Group has a total of 5,200 point of sale. 

History and Description of the Core Activities 

Austrian Lotteries was established in 1986 in order to introduce the Lotto 6 aus 45 game in Austria. At the same time, the operation of the TOTO game (football
betting), which was the source of funding of Austrian sports, was transferred from the monopoly gaming administration to Austrian Lotteries. The main objective was to restructure the decentralised lottery market. 

Austrian Lotteries operates numerical lotteries and sportsbook betting in Austria. Lotto 6 aus 45 is the main game, with the Euromillions international game
being another important one. Austrian Lotteries holds the licences to electronic lotteries (VLTs and online casino), which it operates together with the CASAG Group companies using the win2day.at and winwin platform. 

In 2015, the Issuer acquired an indirect, roughly 11.35% stake in the CASAG Group. Through other transactions completed in 2018, the SAZKA Group increased its
ownership interest in the CASAG Group to 38.16%. At present, the CASAG Group holds a 73.83% share in Austrian Lotteries. Therefore, through its ownership interest in the CASAG Group, the SAZKA Group continues to indirectly hold 28.17% of Austrian
Lotteries. As the SAZKA Group itself indirectly owns also another indirect, 9.45% share in Austrian Lotteries, its total effective share in Austrian Lotteries is thus 37.62%. 

Regulation 
 In 2011, the company received the
concession to operate numerical lotteries, sports betting and lottery terminals until 2027. The licence for gaming products (casino and VLTs) was granted in 2012 and is valid until 2027. 

Membership 
 Austrian Lotteries is a regular member
of the EL and the WLA. Austrian Lotteries received the highest level, i.e. the fourth level, of WLA certificate for responsible gaming.

 86/123 

 The issuer is a joint-stock company that mainly manages its ownership interests within the SAZKA Group and
provides loans and security, including provision of security for the companies within the SAZKA Group. The Issuer therefore depends on the income from dividends and other revenues from the SAZKA Group companies. The Issuer’s ability to meet its
obligations will be materially affected by the value of its ownership interests and the financial and economic standing of the individual SAZKA Group members. This dependence on the SAZKA Group members may intensify if the Issuer provides to any
individual SAZKA Group member a loan or credit facility. The eventual inability of the relevant SAZKA Group member to repay the loan or facility could be materially detrimental for the Issuer. The Issuer’s dependence on its sole shareholder is
based on the shareholder’s ownership interest and share in the voting rights. 
  

	8	 Information about Trends 

 

	8.1	 No Material Adverse Change 

The Issuer declares that no material adverse changes in the Issuer’s outlooks have occurred since the date of the most recent audited consolidated
financial statements of the Issuer. The Issuer also declares that no material adverse changes have occurred in the financial situation of the SAZKA Group since the end of the most recent accounting period for which financial data were published.

  

	8.2	 Information about Known Trends 

As at the date of this Prospectus, no trends, uncertainties, claims, obligations or events which would be realistically likely to have an adverse impact on the
Issuer’s outlooks. 
 As the SAZKA Group operates on the lottery and gaming market, there are a number of factors and trends that may have an impact on
the SAZKA Group (and thus on the Issuer). 
 The main trends affecting the lottery and gaming industry include, in particular, the growth of the European
market, the increasing share of online gaming, privatisation, and regulation. 
 Growth of the European Lottery and Gaming Market 

The European market (EU 28), which covers the activities of European legal gaming and lottery companies and their products including, in particular, numerical
lotteries, instant lotteries, casinos, gaming machines, VLTs, sports betting, horse racing, grew at the average annual rate of about 9% p.a. in terms of GGR from 2013 to 2018. The European market reached the total GGR of EUR 362 billion in 201815. According to data from the monitoring company H2 Gambling Capital, the European market is expected to grow at the average annual rate of 4% p.a. from 2018 to 2021. The deceleration of the growth of
the European market may also decelerate the growth of the SAZKA Group, which operates on this market. 
 Online Gaming 

The lottery and gaming market is generally affected by the emerging demand mainly for online gaming, which has been gaining in popularity in recent years.
While global online gaming reported a market share of only 7% in 2009, it reached 14% in 2018 according to data from the monitoring company H2 Gambling Capital. With regard to the trends in the EU and in comparison with the development of the
traditional number games, instant lotteries, sports betting, gamine machine and casino operations, online gaming enjoys greatest popularity in the Nordic region, while the states in the southern part of the EU still prefer the more traditional forms
of gaming. This difference is primarily influenced by regulatory developments, the demographic differences between these regions as well as by the maturity of the economy, culture and lifestyle. In connection with the increasing share of online
gaming, greater pressure on product portfolio innovation, increasing offer of services, lower barriers for entry into the industry, and decreasing importance of the network of branches and gaming machines can be expected. The SAZKA Group therefore
actively responds to these changes and makes considerable expenditure on product development, in particular, on online products and their launch.

 87/123 

 Privatisation 

The privatisation of what was originally the domain of state lotteries is an important recent trend. The SAZKA Group sees this trend as an opportunity to
expand its activities into other countries. Even though acquisition growth is associated with risks, it offers an opportunity to improve the performance of the SAZKA Group and to develop its activities in the relevant country. The SAZKA Group has a
history of participating in four transactions involving investments in private equity. Lotteries operated on a private basis generally show higher sales growth, with eight European lotteries run by private investors. In the European region, private
lotteries are operated in Albania, Austria, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Greece, Ireland, Italy, and United Kingdom. 
 Regulation 

Even though the gaming and lottery industry is not currently subject to Europe-wide regulation, regulation at the national level tends to increase, aiming, in
particular, to promote responsible gaming, protect the end consumers, ensure state revenue, and decrease the share of the illegal lottery and gaming market. As a result, the regulatory regime is becoming tighter including, for example, the more
stringent conditions regarding the advertising and promotion of gaming products, the requirements concerning the lottery and gaming operators are increasing, with the associated increase in costs (including the introduction of/increase in taxes on
lottery and gaming activities). These measures can contribute to the pressure on the yield on assets.

The following tables provide an overview of selected historical consolidated financial data from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Issuer
for 2018, including the comparable data for 2017, compiled according to IFRS, and they should therefore be read in conjunction with such comparable data. The 2017 figures are taken from the 2018 financial reports and therefore some of these
financial values may differ from the 2017 financial reports. Full financial statements of the Issuer are incorporated in the Prospectus by reference (see chapter Information incorporated by reference). 

Some of the information contained in this Prospectus has been rounded, and therefore the figures given in the individual tables may vary slightly. The sums in

	11.2	 Circumstances Relevant to the Consolidation of the OPAP Group 

Issuer’s Decision to Fully Consolidate the OPAP Group 

The decision that, for IFRS purposes, the SAZKA Group effectively controls the OPAP Group and therefore fully consolidates the OPAP Group in the financial
statements represents material discretion of the Issuer. The Issuer’s Board of Directors understands and notes that this decision influences all the accounting items reported in the financial statements of the Issuer and has therefore made the
decision with due care and attention. The decision took into consideration all the material facts and circumstances available to the Board of Directors of the Issuer, both those supportive of and those contrary to the final decision. 

The Issuer submits in this context that it has performed the relevant analysis in relation to the decision on control of the OPAP Group according to IFRS and
it notes that its considerations are mainly based on the facts and circumstances indicating that it controls the OPAP Group rather than on holding more than a half of the voting rights in OPAP. 

This matter was also formally discussed with the CNB, which agreed with the conclusions of the Board of Directors of the Issuer that the financial statements
of the OPAP Group should be fully consolidated in the Issuer’s financial statements. 
 Material Facts Leading to the Issuer’s Decision
Regarding Effective Control over the OPAP Group 
 Pages 51 and 52 of the Issuer’s Annual Report 2018 list the material facts that caused the Issuer
to decide to consolidate the OPAP Group in its financial statements. 
 Share and Exercise of Voting Rights in OPAP 

The SAZKA Group holds 66.7% of the voting rights in Emma Delta Management Ltd. (Emma DM), which indirectly holds 32.73% of the shares of OPAP. The
remaining 33.3% of the voting rights in Emma DM are held by a third party. Emma DM is the manager and owner of all the voting rights in the fund Emma Delta Variable Capital Investment Company Ltd., which holds the above-mentioned 32.73% share in
OPAP through Emma Delta Hellenic Holdings Ltd. On the basis of the shareholder agreement between the shareholders of Emma DM and the Issuer, the Issuer is entitled to appoint the majority of the members of the governing body of Emma DM including the
Chairman, which effectively enables it to control Emma DM. 
 Even though Emma DM holds less than 50% of the OPAP shares, its holding is by far the largest
individual stake in OPAP. The remaining 67.27% of the shares are dispersed among a large group of investors, with the largest proportion (2.87%) being held by the KBC Bank NV 1 fund according to the information available as at 22 November
2018. KBC also holds another 2.23% through the KB Bank NV 2 fund and 0.74% through the KB Bank NV 3 fund. As at the date specified above, no other investor held a share in OPAP reaching 3%. 

Since Emma DM acquired the 33% share in OPAP, the average shareholder attendance at OPAP’s General Meetings and extraordinary General Meetings has been
71.33% (ranging from 67.51% to 74.71%), with Emma DM’s share representing 46.33% of the voting rights present on average (ranging between 44.86% and 48.88%). The remaining share in OPAP was represented by hundreds of shareholders at these
general meetings. The average number of shareholders required to obtain absolute majority of the votes present was 198 (ranging between 133 and 280). As a result of this fact it is highly unlikely that such a majority of shareholders would be able
to unite at the General Meeting to outvote the Issuer. 
 Most of the shareholder resolutions which were proposed at the General Meetings with Emma DM
voting “in favour” were approved. 

  
 97/123 

 There are no other potential voting rights or other contractual arrangements regarding Emma DM’s share
in OPAP. 
 Board of Directors of OPAP 
 The Board of
Directors of OPAP consists of 13 members, three of whom hold executive positions in OPAP. At the same time, three of the ten non-executive members must be independent of Emma Delta Hellenic Holdings Ltd. and the Issuer. Nevertheless, these members
are also elected by OPAP’s General Meeting, at which Emma DM may exercise its dominant position. 
 The members of the Board of Directors of OPAP
nominated by the Issuer form the majority of the Board of Directors, including the positions of the CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors. The powers of the Board of Directors of OPAP are not limited in any way and the Board can thus directly
carry out major transactions including acquisitions or divestments of shares in other companies. 
 Regulatory Approvals 

In addition to the scattered shareholder structure of OPAP, there are other obstacles which make it difficult for others to take over control over OPAP, such
as the need to obtain approval from the Hellenic Gaming Commission, which supervises the gambling companies active in Greece, or from competition authorities. 

The final decision about the existence of effective control of the SAZKA Group over the OPAP Group stems mainly from (i) the fact that the Issuer was
able to control the most recent general meetings of OPAP, acting indirectly as the majority shareholder of Emma DM, (ii) the Issuer’s ability, through Emma DM, influence the appointment of a majority of the members of the Board of
Directors and (iii) the Issuer’s ability to indirectly direct relevant OPAP activities through the influence on the appointment into key management positions in OPAP. 

Impact of the Potential Classification of the OPAP Group as an Affiliated in the Issuer’s Consolidated Financial Statements 

Despite the above-mentioned facts and the final discretion of the Issuer, it cannot be ruled out that an independent third party (including another
independent auditor) may conclude that the OPAP Group should not be considered an entity controlled by the Issuer and, as such, it should not be consolidated in the Issuer’s consolidated financial statements but instead, it should be recognised
using the equity method. 
 This change would have a material impact on the items reported in the Issuer’s consolidated financial statements. However,
it does not have an impact on the calculation of the financial covenants, which are specified in Article 4 of the Terms and Conditions (in particular, the obligation to maintain the Net Indebtedness Ratio below a certain value). The financial
liabilities of the Issuer specified in the Terms and Conditions are calculated on a pro rata basis, i.e. in accordance with the actual capital interests held by the Issuer in other companies and they are not therefore exposed to any change in
the method applied to consolidate the SAZKA Group in the Issuer’s consolidated financial statements. 
 The selected performance data of the SAZKA
Group in the Prospectus are also provided on a pro rata basis, thus enhancing the Issuer’s transparency in terms of the income of the SAZKA Group. 
  

	11.3	 Financial Results and Financial Indicators of the SAZKA Group Companies 

General Note on the Non-IFRS financial Indicators 
 The
selected financial indicators in this Prospectus are not financial indicators under IFRS. Those indicators are: EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Profit Margin, Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio, Total Debt to Equity Ratio, Net Financial Debt, ROAE, Cash Conversion and
also all financial data and financial indicators after adjustments (collectively Non-IFRS financial indicators). The Non-IFRS financial indicators are sometimes used by investors, financial analysts or other interested parties as additional
indicators to assess the effectiveness of companies’ performance or their ability to use business income to pay debt service, capital costs and operating expenses. 

  
 98/123 

 The Non-IFRS financial indicators alone do not provide a sufficient basis to compare the performance of the
SAZKA Group or its entities with other companies, do not replace other financial data and indicators given in financial reports as net profit, operating profit, cash flows from operating, financial or investment activities or other data or
indicators determined in accordance with IFRS, and should not be evaluated separately without a simultaneous assessment of the financial information presented in the financial reports of the Issuer and the relevant SAZKA Group companies. 

The Issuer provides the Non-IFRS financial indicators, as it believes that these data show trends in the business of the SAZKA Group that may be helpful to
relevant investors and financial analysts. These indicators also illustrate the geographic and economic diversity of the SAZKA Group, and selected financial covenants are based on the Non-IFRS financial indicators. 

The Issuer further notes that the Non-IFRS financial indicators included in the Prospectus do not represent indicators of the same or similar name that are
included in its financial reports or in the financial statements of the SAZKA Group companies, except for GGR and NGR. 
 The Non-IFRS Financial
Indicators and Related Data Used 
 EBITDA is determined as operating profit before depreciation, amortization, interest and tax as disclosed in the
profit/loss statement (EBITDA). 
 The gross gaming revenue from lotteries and betting are the amount staked less the winnings paid (GGR).

 The net gaming revenue from lotteries and betting is determined as GGR less fees and taxes (NGR). 

EBITDA margin is determined as the ratio of EBITDA to NGR (EBITDA margin). 

Profit margin is determined as the ratio of profit after deduction of tax to NGR (Profit Margin). 

Total debt is determined as the sum of bank loans and other borrowings - the long-term part and bank loans and
other borrowings - the short-term part (Total Debt). 
 Net debt is determined as Total Debt less
cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets (Net Debt). 
 Net financial debt is determined as the sum of long-term liabilities and
short-term liabilities less cash and cash equivalents (Net Financial Debt). 
 Cash Conversion is determined as the ratio of EBITDA less investment
in tangible and intangible fixed assets16 to EBITDA (Cash Conversion). 
 Return on average
equity is determined as profit or loss after tax divided by the average yearly value (calculated as average of the value at the beginning and end of a year) of total equity (ROAE). 

Financial Performance of the Issuer in 2017 and 2018 

All financial information in this sub-chapter applies to the Issuer’s consolidated financial statements. 

In 2018, amount staked totalled EUR 5,501,500 thousand (2017: EUR 4,967,155 thousand), with a year-on-year growth of 11%.

 99/123 

 In 2018, GGR reached EUR 1,885,706 thousand (2017: EUR 1,664,027 thousand), with a year-on-year growth
of 13 %. 
 The NGR was EUR 1,303,048 thousand, a year-on-year increase of nearly 15% (2017: EUR 1,133,591 thousand). Other revenues, in the amount of
EUR 130,874 thousand (2017: EUR 99,818 thousand) came from the sale of goods and services, mainly from the services of a virtual mobile operator, recharging prepaid mobile phone credit, and the sale of event tickets.

 The members of the SAZKA Group
whose financial information is reported in the Issuer’s financial statements using the equity method are recognised as a share of profit after tax corresponding to the ownership interest held by the Issuer in these SAZKA Group Members. In 2018,
this recognition mainly applied to the results of LOTTOITALIA and the CASAG Group (2017: LOTTOITALIA and Medial Beteiligungs-GmbH17). The amount of their share in profit after tax in 2018 was EUR
101,297 thousand (2017: EUR 73,758 thousand) and the 37% year-on-year increase was caused by increasing the ownership interest in the CASAG Group from 11% to 38% and the year-on-year increase in the earnings of LOTTOITALIA by 14%. 

EBITDA for 2018 was EUR 552,675 thousand (2017: EUR 427,166 thousand), a year-on-year increase of 29%. In absolute terms, the EBITDA growth by EUR
125,509 thousand was contributed to by the OPAP Group with EUR 47,576 thousand, SAZKA with EUR 19,270 thousand, SUPER SPORT with EUR 45,019 thousand, CASAG with EUR 15,722 thousand, LOTTOITALIA with EUR 8,345 thousand

The financial net loss for 2018 reached EUR 80,963 thousand (2017: EUR 72,879 thousand). In 2018, the net income after tax was EUR 262,514 thousand,
which represented a 39% increase from the EUR 189,462 thousand in 2017. 
 The 2018 Profit Margin was 20% (2017: 17%). 

The company paid a dividend of EUR 40,338 thousand in 2018 (2017: -). 

The total assets for 2018 were EUR 4,332,595 thousand (2017: EUR 3,908,467 thousand). The most important asset items include in particular intangible
fixed assets and goodwill, accounting for 67% of the balance sheet total in 2018 (2017: 67%). The investments reported using the equity method were EUR 670,729 thousand in 2018 (15% of the balance sheet total) and the amount of cash and cash
equivalents was EUR 312,678 thousand (7% of the balance sheet total).

1,599,664 thousand). 
 As of 31 December 2018, the ratio of Net Debt to EBITDA was 2.6x (as at 31 December 2017: 2.8x).

	11.4	 Financial Information Data Concerning the SAZKA Group’s Financial Performance in 2017 and 2018 after
Adjustments 

 In addition to the financial information which is based on the audited financial statements of the Issuer prepared
according to the IFRS specified in Article 11.3 above, and the financial information for the individual SAZKA Group Members, which are based on the individual or, in the case of the OPAP Group and the CASAG Group, from the consolidated financial
statements prepared according to IFRS, the Issuer also provides the description of non-audited financial information after the recognition of the pro-rata, pro-forma adjustments for 2017 and 2018 and for the last 12 months ending
31 March 2019 (Adjustments).20 
 The recognition of pro-rata adjustments with
regard to the SAZKA Group means that (i) the relevant financial information of each SAZKA Group Member (reported in the individual financial statements or sub-consolidated financial statements according to the previous paragraph, without
duplicate recognition) are multiplied by the percentage of the Issuer’s direct or indirect stake in that SAZKA Group Member and (ii) the financial information adjusted in this manner is aggregated for all the SAZKA Group Members. Unlike in
the consolidated financial statements according to the IFRS, where the subsidiaries are fully consolidated, i.e. recognised at the full 100% regardless of the actual ownership interest, the pro-rata adjustments takes into consideration the
actual percentage of the equity interest. The table below gives an overview of the effective stakes in the SAZKA Group’s major operating companies used to make the Adjustments.

For example, the financial results of the OPAP Group are fully consolidated (at 100%) in the consolidated financial statements of the SAZKA Group, and the
OPAP Group is recognised by the pro-rata adjustment at 23.71% for 2018 (2017: 23.71%). 
  

	20 	 While the financial information after the Adjustments is based on the audited consolidated or separate
financial statements of the SAZKA Group, these adjustments were not prepared in accordance with the IFRS or the Prospectus Regulation and were not audited. This financial information has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and do not
represent the SAZKA Group’s historical results. They cannot be considered a substitute for the financial statements of the Issuer or an indicator of the historical or future results of the SAZKA Group, either.

 As for the companies recognised using the equity method (e.g. the CASAG Group, LOTTOITALIA), the financial
results are recognised in the consolidated financial statements of the SAZKA Group in the income statement under the item Share of profit of equity method investees (net of tax). As part of the pro rata adjustments, the share corresponding to
the actual equity interest is recognised in all the selected items of financial information (GGR, NGR, EBITDA, Indebtedness, cash and cash equivalents) after the Adjustments. 

The recognition of the pro-forma adjustments with regard to the SAZKA Group means that the percentage of the Issuer’s direct or indirect equity
interest in the individual SAZKA Group Members as at 31 December (i.e. after the recognition of any increase or decrease in the equity interest made during the given year) is deemed to have occurred on 1 January of that year. As a result
of this adjustment, the relevant financial information flows for the given year are posted in accordance with the Issuer’s equity interest for the entire year, regardless of when the change in the equity interest in the relevant SAZKA Group
Member actually occurred. 
 The pro-forma adjustments include the following specific facts, which are reflected in the financial information after
the Adjustments: 
  

	 	•	 	 with regard to the financial information for 2017, the increase in the effective ownership interest of the Issuer
in OPAP (i.e. the share held by the Issuer indirectly via holding a 66.7% share in Emma Delta) to 23.71% is recognised as if it occurred on 1 January 2017; 

 

	 	•	 	 with regard to the financial information for 2018, the increase in the Issuer’s interest in the CASAG Group
to 38.16% is recognised as if it occurred on 1 January 2018; and 

  

	 	•	 	 with regard to the acquisition of a 66.7% stake in SUPER SPORT in 2018 and the subsequent divestment of SUPER
SPORT in 2019, the divestment of SUPER SPORT is taken into account as if it had occurred on 1 January 2018, and therefore is not effectively included in the financial data after Adjustments.

year-on-year increase of 33%. 
  

	21 	 The method of determining the pro-rata adjusted EBITDA is provided in the Terms and Conditions and is
considered to be fully included herein by reference. 

  
 107/123 

 Pro-rata operating profit means the operating profit of the SAZKA Group according to the Issuer’s
consolidated financial statements after Adjustments (Pro-rata Operating Profit). 
 Pro-rata operating profit for the year 2018 was EUR
252,057 thousand (2017: EUR 190,619 thousand) and recorded a year-on-year growth of 32%. The growth of GGR, NGR, Pro-rata Adjusted EBITDA and Pro-rata Operating Profit was driven by organic growth and improved EBITDA margin of SAZKA,
LOTTOITALIA and the OPAP Group. In the case of the CASAG Group, an increase of 26.81% in 2018 contributed to growth, in addition to organic growth and EBITDA margin growth.22 

Pro-rata Net Indebtedness23 as at 31 December 2018 was EUR 934,131 thousand (31 December 2017:
EUR 728,314 thousand) and the Net Indebtedness Ratio24 thus reached 2.79x as at 31 December 2018 (31 December 2017: 2.90x). 

For the last 12 months ending 31 March 2019, i.e. the period from 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2019, the Pro-rata Adjusted EBITDA of the SAZKA
Group reached EUR 346,788 thousand, Pro-rata Net Indebtedness of the SAZKA Group amounted to EUR 965,561 thousand, and therefore the Net Indebtedness Ratio of the SAZKA Group was 2.78x. Pro rata operating profit amounted to EUR 263,064
thousand. 
 In connection with the Voluntary Tender Offer described in Article 3.6 above, the Pro-Rata Net Indebtedness may increase by up to EUR
2,150,000 thousand depending on the degree of acceptance of the Voluntary Tender Offer by the other shareholders of OPAP, as a result of drawing the Syndicated Loan and the Bridge Loan in the total aggregate volume of up to EUR
1,400,000 thousand and the Subordinated Loan in the volume of up to EUR 750,000 thousand. 
 As a result of the Voluntary Tender Offer, the amounts of
the above financial information will be affected. The effect can be illustrated by the following hypothetical scenarios. In this way, the Issuer in no way estimates the success of the Voluntary Tender Offer. 

Basic scenario with expected 17% buyback. 
 Maximum Indebtedness

 108/123 

 Depending on the level of acceptance of the Voluntary Tender Offer, the possible level of Pro-rata Net
Indebtedness is between 2.78x with zero buyback, i.e. preservation of the status quo, to 4.75x in the Maximum Indebtedness scenario. 
 In the Full
Acceptance scenario (expected 67% buyback), the Net Indebtedness Ratio of 4.21x is lower than in the Maximum Indebtedness scenario (expected 40% buyback) with the Net Indebtedness Ratio of 4.75x. The difference is caused by the use of the
Subordinated Loan in the Full Acceptance scenario and by the fact that the volume of the Subordinated Loan is not reflected in the calculation of the Net Indebtedness Ratio. 

Geographical representation 
 The share of the individual
countries in the Pro-rata Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the table below. The main part of the Pro-rata Adjusted EBITDA (37%) is generated in Italy (2017: 44%), followed by Greece and Cyprus with 25% (2017: 28%), and the Czech Republic with 24%

	12	 Litigations and Arbitrations 

Czech Republic 
  

	•	 	 Petition for the annulment of the contract for the sale of an undertaking 

Through his action of 24 November 2011, the plaintiff (an individual) seeks the annulment of the contract under the undertaking SAZKA, a.s., in
liquidation (ID No.: 47116307, currently SALEZA a.s.) was transferred to SAZKA. As the plaintiff did not identify SAZKA as a party to the proceedings on the defendant’s side, SAZKA joined the judicial proceedings as an enjoined party by its
submission filed on 19 November 2013. Despite the above, the courts do not treat SAZKA as a party to the proceedings. SAZKA’s therefore relies on information available from public sources. 

The litigation initiated by the plaintiff is pending. The proceedings have so far addressed only procedural issues (the plaintiff requested exemption from the
court fee, asked for an attorney to be appointed by the court and also objected to the prejudice of the court) and the ordinary and extraordinary remedies filed by the plaintiff against the decisions on these procedural issues. The proceedings are
currently at the stage of an appellate review of the decision of the High Court in Prague dated 26 March 2018, in which the High Court in Prague confirmed the resolution of the Municipal Court in Prague of 2 November 2015, which dismissed
the plaintiff’s petition for the appointment of an attorney, among others. 
 The Issuer’s Board of Directors does not expect the plaintiff to
succeed in the case. 
 Greece 
  

	•	 	 The company that provided OPAP marketing services as OPAP’s subcontractor is suing OPAP, claiming that OPAP
did not pay the company the fee for the services provided. The main claim is for 9,643,922 euros, non-monetary damages are 1,000,000 euros, and the first additional claim is for EUR 23,700,500 and the second additional claim for 4,821,961 euros. The
court of first instance dismissed the petition by Judgment No. 1645/2019. 

  

	•	 	 OPAP is a party to the proceedings, in which the appellate court issued, in July 2017, a decision in favour of a
former agent, who was awarded compensation for the loss of profit in the amount of about EUR 9 million plus interest, i.e. about EUR 13.5 million for the period from June 2006 to December 2011 (the awarded amount of EUR 13.5 million
was recognised in the financial statement of 30 June 2017). However, OPAP filed application request with the Supreme Court in Athens for the annulment of the decision and the Supreme Court annulled the contested decision and returned the case
to the appellate court for a review in January 2019. The case is currently being reviewed by a different panel of judges of the appellate court. 

  

	•	 	 The decision in another case, under which the same former agent sought compensation for the loss of profit from
January 2012 to December 2016, in the amount of EUR 11.1 million plus the first additional claim in the amount of EUR 3,264,197.50, has been suspended until the completion of the above-mentioned case. The same former agent has also filed a
petition for the payment of interest on the interest awarded to the agent by the appellate court whose decision, however, has been annulled and returned for a review by the Supreme Court. 

 

	•	 	 Proceedings against OPAP have been under way before the court of first instance in Athens since 2012. OPAP
conducted an open tender for the provision of services related to the promotion of the company profile. The petitioner was selected as the successful bidder. OPAP requested the petitioner to create the OPAP Agency Store model. The petitioner failed
to fulfil its contractual obligations. However, the petitioner seeks full payment as if it had provided the services properly. 

  
 110/123 

 The claim is for EUR 5,315,500 plus interest calculated from the filing date of the action
against OPAP. At the petitioner’s request, the proceedings were suspended indefinitely on 30 April 2014. 
  

	•	 	 There are 314 litigation cases at various stages, initiated by the former agents of OPAP before the court of
first instance in Athens concerning the invalidity of the termination of the contracts with these agents. In most cases, the former agents claim (i) compensation for the loss of profit, (ii) moral damages, and (iii) compensation for
goodwill. The total amount claimed is approximately EUR 163.7 million euros. The hearings are scheduled to take place in 2019 and 2020. The court of first instance in Athens has so far issued 4 judgments in favour of OPAP, dismissing the
petitioners’ petitions for the invalidity of the termination of their contracts. 

 Italy 

In Italy, the companies Stanley International Betting Limited and Stanleybet Malta Ltd as plaintiffs conducted two litigation cases against the local regulator
(Agenzia delle Dogane ae dei Monopoli) (ADM). Even though neither the Issuer nor any SAZKA Group company is a party to the litigation cases, the SAZKA Group could have been affected by the outcome. 

 

	•	 	 In June 2017, the State Council (Consiglio di Stato), being the competent appellate judicial body, suspended the
proceedings conducted by the companies Stanley International Betting Limited and Stanleybet Malta Ltd against the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance and the ADM, in which they sought the cancellation of the open tender for the concession to
operate the Lotto game, in order to approach the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) with the request for a preliminary ruling regarding the rules of the tender in question. On 20 April 2019 the CJEU issued its judgment in case
C-375/17, from which it can be concluded that the practice of the governmental bodies being sued is not, in itself, contrary to EU law, and the State Council must review, in the course of the further proceedings, whether the conditions of the tender
regarding the concession to operate the Lotto game are justified and compliant with the interpretation provided by the CJEU in the judgment. After the CJEU passed the judgment, the State Council finally dismissed Stanley International Betting
Limited’s appeal on 12 August 2019. As a result of this decision, LOTTOITALIA will maintain the concession until 2025. 

 In the
past 12 months, the Issuer or any other SAZKA Group Member has not been a party to any other judicial, administrative or arbitration proceedings which may have, or had, a material adverse impact on the Issuer’s financial standing other than to
the proceedings specified above. 
  

	13	 Significant Change in the Issuer’s Financial Position

the end of the last fiscal period other than the changes specified in this Prospectus (change of the shareholder structure of the Issuer, sale of SAZKA Group Adriatic, and other events described in Article 11.5 above). 

 

	14	 Significant Contracts

 X. TAXATION 

It is recommended that parties interested in acquiring any Notes consult their legal and tax advisors (taking into account all the relevant factual and
legal circumstances relevant to their particular situation) with regard to the tax, foreign exchange and legal consequences of purchasing, holding and selling the Notes and receiving payments under the tax and foreign exchange legislation in effect
in the Czech Republic and the countries where such parties reside, as well as countries in which proceeds from holding or selling the Notes could be taxed. 

The tax regulations of the Czech Republic and the tax regulations of the investor’s Member State may have an impact on the income from the Notes.

 The following brief summary of selected tax impacts regarding the purchasing, holding and selling of the Notes and foreign exchange regulation in the
Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic is mainly based on Czech Act No. 586/1992 Coll., on Income Taxes, as amended, and Slovak Act No. 595/2003 Coll., on Income Tax, as amended, and related legislation effective as of the date of this
Prospectus, as well as the prevailing interpretation of these laws and other regulations applied by the Czech and Slovak tax and other state authorities that are known to the Issuer as of the date of this Prospectus. However, the information
contained herein is not intended and should not be construed as legal or tax advice. All the information below is of a general nature (it does not take into account, for example, the possible specific tax regime of selected potential acquirers such
as investment funds, mutual funds, pension funds, etc.) and may change depending on changes in applicable legislation that may occur after that date, or in the interpretation of such legislation that may be applied after that date. 

The description below assumes that the person receiving any payments arising from the Notes is the beneficial owner of such income, i.e. that person is not an
agent or depositary who receives such payments on behalf of another person. 
  

	1	 Taxes in the Czech Republic 

Interest Income 
 Interest income (as well as income in the
form of the difference between the nominal value of the Note paid and its issue price, or between the redemption price of the Note at its early redemption and its issue price (Interest Income) paid to a natural person is subject to a special
rate of withholding tax withheld at source (i.e. by the Issuer as the tax payer when Interest Income is paid). The rate of the withholding tax is 15 per cent. However, if the recipient of the Interest Income is a natural person who is not a
Czech tax resident, does not hold the Notes through a permanent establishment in the Czech Republic and is not a tax resident of another EU Member State or other states forming the European Economic Area (EEA) or a third country with which
the Czech Republic concluded a valid and effective international double taxation treaty or an international agreement on the exchange of information in tax matters in the field of income taxes, including a multilateral international treaty, the
withholding tax rate is 35 per cent. In the case of natural persons who are Czech tax residents, the above mentioned withholding tax represents the final tax liability of interest income on the Notes in the Czech Republic. In the case of
natural persons who are tax residents in an EU/EEA-Member State and decide to include the interest income in a Czech tax return, the above mentioned withholding tax represents a tax advance. A natural person having a permanent establishment in the
Czech Republic is generally obliged to file a tax return in the Czech Republic. 
 Interest Income (as opposed to natural persons, for corporate income
taxpayers, the difference between the price of the Note on its early redemption and its lower issue rate is not considered as interest) paid to a corporate income taxpayer that is a Czech tax resident or not a Czech tax resident but holds the Notes
through a permanent establishment in the Czech Republic is not subject to withholding tax and forms part of the general corporate income tax at the rate of 19 per cent (in the case of non-resident taxpayers, the Issuer may be obliged to hedge
this tax - see below). Interest Income paid to a corporate income taxpayer that is not a Czech tax resident and does not hold the Notes through a permanent establishment in the Czech Republic is subject to a special rate of withholding tax withheld
at source (i.e. by the Issuer as the tax payer 

  
 114/123 

 when Interest Income is paid). The rate of the withholding tax is 15 per cent. However, if the Interest
Income recipient is a corporate income taxpayer that is not a Czech tax resident, does not hold the Notes through a permanent establishment in the Czech Republic and is not a tax resident of another EU/EEA-Member State or a third country with which
the Czech Republic has a valid and effective international double tax treaty or international tax information exchange agreement for income tax matters, including a multilateral international treaty, the withholding tax rate is 35 per cent. In
the case of corporate income taxpayers that are residents of another EU/EEA-Member State, do not hold the Notes in the Czech Republic through a permanent establishment and decide to include the Interest Income in the tax return in the Czech
Republic, the above mentioned withholding tax represents a tax advance. If the Interest Income accrues to the Czech permanent establishment of a corporate income taxpayer that is not a Czech tax resident and is not a tax resident of an EU/EEA-Member
State, the Issuer is obliged, when paying the Interest Income, to withhold a securing tax of 10 per on this income (unless the tax administrator decides to reduce or waive this obligation). In general, a corporate income taxpayer doing business
in the Czech Republic through a permanent establishment is obliged to file a tax return in the Czech Republic and any deducted tax security is included in the total tax liability reported in the tax return. 

A double taxation treaty between the Czech Republic and the country where the recipient of the Interest Income is resident for tax purposes may exclude or
reduce the tax rate in the Czech Republic (in the case of a natural person including the redemption of the Note before its maturity), generally provided that the income it is not attributable to a permanent establishment which the recipient has in
the Czech Republic. To benefit from the double taxation treaty, the taxpayer is subject to the condition that the recipient is a resident of the relevant state and is the beneficial owner of the income paid. 

Capital Gains/Losses 
 Income realised from the sale of
the Notes by a natural person who is a Czech tax resident or who is not a Czech tax resident but either holds (sells) the Notes through a permanent establishment in the Czech Republic or the income from the sale of the Notes comes from a Czech tax
resident buyer or from a Czech permanent establishment of a non-Czech tax resident buyer is included in the general tax base, within which it is subject to personal income tax at the rate of 15 per cent. If this income is realized as a part of
separate (business) activities of a natural person, such income may also be subject to a solidarity surcharge tax of 7 per cent of the positive excess of the total sum of income included in the partial tax base from employment activities and
the partial tax base from business activities in the relevant taxable period, and the amount of 48-times the average wage (CZK 1,569,552 for 2019). Losses from the sale of the Notes are generally non-tax-deductible for non-business individuals
unless taxable income from the sale of other securities is reported in the same tax period; in such a case, losses from the sale of the Notes up to the amount of income from the sale of other securities may be offset against each other. 

Income from the sale of the Notes that have not been held in connection with the business activities of a natural person is generally exempt from personal
income tax, unless the worldwide income from the sale of all securities and unit income per unit upon cancellation of the mutual fund in the relevant tax period exceeds CZK 100,000. In addition, the income from the sale of the Notes that have not
been held in connection with the business activities of a natural person is generally exempt from personal income tax if at least 3 years elapse between the acquisition and the sale of the Notes (this exemption does not apply to income from future
consideration transferred within 3 years of acquisition). 
 Income from the sale of the Notes realized by a corporate income taxpayer that is a Czech tax
resident or is not a Czech tax resident but either holds the Notes through a permanent establishment in the Czech Republic or receives the income from the sale of the Notes from a Czech tax resident, or from a Czech permanent establishment of a
buyer that is not a Czech tax resident is included in the general corporate income tax base and is subject to a corporate income tax of 19 per cent. Losses from the sale of the Notes are generally tax-deductible for these persons. According to
some interpretations, these losses are not deductible for corporate income taxpayers that are Czech non-resident taxpayers and do not keep accounting books according to Czech accounting regulations. 

  
 115/123 

 The income for the sale of the Notes realized by a natural person or a corporate income taxpayer that is not
a Czech tax resident, does not hold the Notes through a permanent establishment in the Czech Republic and the income from the sale of the Notes does not come from a Czech tax resident buyer or from a Czech permanent establishment of a non-Czech tax
resident buyer is not subject to tax in the Czech Republic. 
 In the case of the sale of the Notes by a natural person or corporate income taxpayer that is
not a Czech tax resident or a tax resident of an EU/EEA-Member State to a Czech tax resident buyer or a non-Czech tax resident buyer doing business in the Czech Republic through a permanent establishment to which the remuneration is assigned, the
buyer is generally obliged to withhold the securing tax of 1 per cent of the purchase price of the Notes when paying the purchase price of the Notes. 

A seller who receives income from the sale of the Notes taxable in the Czech Republic is generally obliged to file a tax return in the Czech Republic, with
the tax security being credited against its final tax liability. 
 A double tax treaty between the Czech Republic and the country in which the seller of
the Notes is resident for tax purposes may exclude taxation of profits from the sale of the Notes in the Czech Republic, including tax security, provided that the seller does not hold the Notes through a permanent establishment in the Czech
Republic. To benefit from the double taxation treaty, the taxpayer is subject to the condition that the recipient is a resident of the relevant state and is the beneficial owner of the income paid. 

 

	2	 Taxes on the Notes in the Slovak Republic 

Under the Income Tax Act, income of legal persons is subject to a 21 per cent rate of tax and income of natural persons is subject to a 19 per cent
rate of tax, except for income exceeding 176.8 times the subsistence minimum, which is subject to a 25 per cent rate of tax. 
 The withholding tax has
a rate of 19 per cent; if such income is paid, remitted or credited to a non-contracting state taxpayer, a tax rate of 35 per cent shall apply. A list of taxpayers of non-contracting states is published on the website of the Ministry of
Finance of the Slovak Republic. 
 Income Tax on Interest Income 

According to the applicable provisions of the Slovak Income Tax Act: 
  

	•	 	 the interest income from the Notes received by a tax resident is subject to the income tax in the Slovak
Republic; 

  

	•	 	 the interest income from the Notes received by a tax resident who is a natural person will be included in the tax
return and will be taxed at a 19 per cent tax rate; and 

  

	•	 	 the interest income from the Notes received by a tax resident that is a legal person will be included in its
general tax base and will be taxed at a 21 per cent tax rate. 

 Because the income tax law may change during the life of the Notes,
the interest income from the Notes will be taxed pursuant to the law applicable at the time of its payment. 
 The Issuer will not provide the Noteholders
with any compensation or gross-up in connection with any tax withholding. 
 Income Tax on Sale 

The profit from the sale of the Notes generated by a legal person that is a Slovak tax resident or by a permanent establishment of a tax non-resident that is a
legal person and has its registered office outside the territory of the Slovak Republic are included in the general tax base taxed at the applicable corporate income tax rate. Losses from the sale of the Notes calculated on a cumulative basis for
all Notes sold during a single taxable period are generally non-tax-deductible, except for specific cases provided by law. 

  
 116/123 

 The profit from the sale of the Notes generated by a natural person who is a Slovak tax resident or a by
permanent establishment of a tax non-resident who is a natural person and resides outside the territory of the Slovak Republic are generally included in the common tax base for the personal income tax. No losses from the sale of the Notes can be
deemed to be tax-deductible. If a natural person holds the Notes for more than one year, the profit from the sale of the Notes is exempt from the personal income tax. 

  
 117/123 

 XI. ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES AGAINST THE ISSUER 

The information contained in this chapter is provided only as general information to characterize the legal situation and has been obtained from publicly
available sources. Neither the Issuer nor its advisers make any representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the information included herein. Any prospective purchasers of the Notes should therefore not rely solely upon the information
included herein and should contact their legal advisers for consultation about the enforcement of claims in respect of the Issuer’s private law liabilities within any relevant jurisdiction. 

 

	1	 Enforcement of Civil Liabilities in the Czech Republic 

Pursuant to the Terms and Conditions, the court competent for resolving any disputes between the Issuer and the Noteholders in relation to the Notes arising
from the Terms and Conditions is the Municipal Court in Prague. 
 The Issuer has not granted its consent to the jurisdiction of a foreign court in
connection with any lawsuit commenced on the basis of the acquisition or in connection with the holding of the Notes, nor did it appoint a representative for proceedings in any country. As a result, it may be impossible for the acquirer of the Notes
to commence any proceedings against the Issuer or require foreign courts to issue court decisions against the Issuer or require the observance of the decisions issued by such courts that are based on the provisions of foreign legal regulations. 

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in civil and commercial matters in the Czech Republic is governed by EU law, public international
treaties and Czech law. In relation to the Member States of the European Union, EU Regulation 1215/2012 of 12 December 2012 on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters (Regulation
1215/2012) is directly applicable in the Czech Republic. Under this regulation, court rulings issued by any court authority in the EU Member States with regard to civil and commercial matters are enforceable in the Czech Republic, subject to the
rules set forth therein and, conversely, court rulings issued by court authorities in the Czech Republic with regard to civil and commercial matters are reciprocally enforceable in the EU Member States. 

Unless the parties to the dispute agreed otherwise, or unless courts of a different Member State have an exclusive jurisdiction, foreign entities are able to
bring civil proceedings before Czech courts against individuals and legal entities domiciled therein. In court proceedings, Czech courts apply their respective national procedural rules and their judgments are enforceable in the Czech Republic,
subject to certain statutory limitations on the ability of creditors to enforce judgments against certain assets. 
 Any person bringing an action in the
Czech Republic may be required to: (i) submit to the court in the Czech Republic a translation to the Czech language of any relevant document prepared by a sworn translator authorised by such court; and (ii) pay a court filing fee. 

In the event that court judgments against the Issuer are issued by court bodies of non-EU Member States, the following rules shall apply: 

In cases where the Czech Republic or the European Union has concluded an international treaty with a specific country on the recognition and enforcement of
court rulings, the recognition and enforcement of court rulings issued in such country is processed in accordance with the provisions of the applicable international treaty. If no international treaty on the recognition and enforcement of court
rulings exists, then the rulings of foreign courts shall be recognised and enforced in the Czech Republic in accordance with Czech Act No. 91/2012 Coll., on private international law, as amended (the Czech Private International Law Act)
and other relevant legislation. In the event of a foreign ruling against a Czech individual or legal entity, such a foreign ruling shall be recognised and enforced if, among other things, actual reciprocity has been established regarding the
recognition and enforcement of judgments rendered by Czech courts in the relevant country. 

  
 118/123 

 The Ministry of Justice of the Czech Republic shall provide the court, upon request, with a declaration on
reciprocity by a foreign country. If such declaration of reciprocity has not been issued with regard to a particular country, however, this does not automatically mean that reciprocity does not exist in a given case. The court will take into account
the declaration of the Ministry of Justice of the Czech Republic on reciprocity by a foreign state as a piece of evidence. 
 Even if reciprocity has been
established, under the Czech Private International Law Act, the decisions of foreign states’ justice bodies and decisions of foreign state authorities on rights and obligations which, according to their private law nature, would be decided by
courts in the Czech Republic as well as foreign court conciliations and foreign notarial deeds and other public instruments in these matters (jointly also referred to as the Foreign Decisions) cannot be recognized and enforced if (i) the
matter falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Czech Republic, or in the event that the proceedings could not be conducted by any authority of a foreign state should the provisions on the jurisdiction of Czech courts be applied
to considering the jurisdiction of the foreign authority, unless the party against whom the decision was issued voluntarily submitted to the authority of the foreign body; (ii) proceedings are underway before a Czech court with regard to the
same legal matters and if the said proceedings commenced prior to the proceedings abroad in which the judgement whose recognition has been proposed was issued; (iii) a Czech court has issued a final judgment in the same matter, or a final
judgment of a third-country authority has already been recognized in the Czech Republic; (iv) the foreign authority deprived the party to the proceedings against whom the judgment was made of the opportunity to properly participate in the
proceedings, in particular, if such party had not been duly served for the purposes of the initiation of the proceedings; or (v) the recognition of a foreign judgment would be contrary to the public order. The obstacles referred to in points
(ii) to (iv) above shall be taken into account only if they are invoked by the party against whom the foreign decision is to be recognized, unless the existence of the obstacle (ii) or (iii) is otherwise known to the authority
deciding on recognition. 
 The courts of the Czech Republic would not consider the merits of an action brought in the Czech Republic on the basis of any
breach by the Issuer of public law of any country other than the Czech Republic, in particular any action for breach of any foreign securities law. 

Foreign exchange regulation 
 The issue and acquisition of
the Notes is not subject to any foreign exchange regulation in the Czech Republic. 
 Under Czech Constitutional Act No. 110/1998 Coll., on security of
the Czech Republic, the Czech Government or its Prime Minister may declare an emergency (in Czech: nouzový stav). If the Czech Government declares an emergency, payments in foreign currency or abroad generally, interbank transfers of
monies from abroad to the Czech Republic and/or sale of securities (including the Notes) abroad may be suspended in accordance with Czech Act No. 240/2000 Coll., on crisis management and amendment to certain acts, as amended, for the duration
of such emergency. Such an emergency may be declared for a maximum period of 30 days unless prolonged by the approval of the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic.
