Thus, as of 28 December 2018, the new values of the Fund's share capital are: subscribed share capital RON 4,733,020,898.32, divided in 9,101,963,266 shares, and the paid-up share capital is RON 4,543,838,476.32, divided in 8,738,150,916 shares.
2 The total voting rights does not reflect yet the share capital decrease which was effective starting with 28 December 2018, as its implementation with Depozitarul Central S.A. is ongoing and it is expected to be implemented before end of January 2019.
