Authorization of the condensed consolidated financial statements
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been issued by the Management Board on August 10, 2004.

Significant events in the six month period ended June 30, 2004
On January 22, 2004 the Company concluded its selection process and selected Siemens Information and Communication Mobile Group as the main supplier of advanced UMTS technology, to be deployed in the Warsaw area.
On February 2, 2004 the Company repurchased on the market the principal amount of EUR 2,000 thousand and on February 5, 2004 the principal amount of EUR 3,000 thousand of the
10 ?% Notes (2.5% of the total initial principal amount).
On March 9, 2004 the Supreme Court rejected the cassation lodged by TP SA in 2003 against the Antimonopoly Court’s judgment relating to international traffic rates terminating in the Company’s network. This is the final judgment and the Company currently does not expect any potential further claims related to this case.
In March 2004 the Company launched new prepaid brand “Heyah” on the Polish cellular phone market. This brand is directed to the young people. “Heyah” offers attractive prices for calls and SMS. Starter packages are sold through new distribution channels (without use of “ERA” brand sales network).
On April 29, 2004 the Republic of Poland has been granted an exemption period to the European Union ("EU") Directive 2003/49/EC of June 3, 2003 on a common system of taxation applicable to interest and royalty payments made between certain associated companies of different member states, which in effect enables Poland to collect the withholding tax (see Note 14).

Management intends to continue to vigorously defend this action and no provisions have been made in regard to Carston’s claims as at the balance sheet date June 30, 2004.
3.
Extract from the Company’s Accounting Policies
3.1.
Basis of preparation
The Company maintains its accounting books in accordance with accounting principles and practices employed by enterprises in Poland as required by Polish Accounting Standards (“PAS”). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect certain adjustments not reflected in the Company's statutory books to present these statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
The differences between IFRS and generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) and their effect on net results for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 have been presented in Note 16 to these condensed consolidated financial statements.
These condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. The accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 prepared in accordance with IFRS. The new revenue recognition policy (see Note 3.5) was implemented by the Company to reflect the best practices on the market.
The IFRS standards that were mandatory as at June 30, 2004 were applied to these condensed consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" is in force from April 1, 2004, therefore the Company has considered an accounting policy change. As there was no business combination during the period, the Company did not apply its regulations yet.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified by the revaluation of financial assets and financial liabilities held for trading or designated as hedging items.
3.
Extract from the Company’s Accounting Policies (cont.)
3.1.
Basis of preparation (cont.)
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires to use estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although those estimates are based on the Management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results ultimately may differ from these estimates.
The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations, balance sheet and cash flows for each period presented.
These condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year and should be read in a conjunction with the 2003 consolidated financial statements and the related notes.
These condensed consolidated financial statements contain unaudited information for three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 and balance sheet data as at December 31, 2003 derived from annual financial statements for 2003 after restatement to reflect changes in accounting policies as described in Note 3.5.
3.2.
Group Accounting
These condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Polska Telefonia Cyfrowa Sp. z o.o. and its wholly owned subsidiary PTC International Finance (Holding) B.V. (consolidated).
3.3.
Presentation of Cash Flow Statement
The Company reconsidered the nature of the overdraft facility as an integral part of the Company’s cash management and included the overdraft balance of PLN 4 and
PLN 36,004 in cash and cash equivalents in consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, respectively.
3.4.
Presentation of Income Statement
In 2003, the Company netted costs with revenue related to premium calls and premium SMS, as a result of adoption of industry practice as resulting from the principle of Emerging Issue Task Force 99-19 “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent” (“EITF 99-19”). The netting is applied to premium calls and premium SMS, when the Company is acting as an agent providing telecommunication services without being the primary obligor in delivery of the relevant service. The Company presented the comparatives for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2003 with netting resulting in a decrease of both net sales and cost of sales by PLN 14,079 and PLN 7,057 respectively, without impact on gross margin (see also Notes 5 and 6).
3.
Extract from the Company’s Accounting Policies (cont.)
3.5.
Change in revenue recognition policy
From January 1, 2004 the Company retrospectively implemented a new revenue recognition policy which adopts best industry practices based on Emerging Issue Task Force 00-21 “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”). As a result of the new revenue recognition policy implementation the revenue and costs related to sales of handsets and activation, as parts of multi-element arrangements, is recognized in the income statement immediately when incurred, except for the contracts where fair value analysis indicates revenue (and costs) deferral. As a result of retrospective implementation the Company increased the net sales and cost of sales for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2003 by PLN 17,042 and PLN 5,923 respectively (see also Notes 5 a nd 6). Deferred costs and non-interest-bearing long-term liabilities as at December 31, 2003 have been decreased by PLN 118,344 which represented the deferred costs and deferred revenues in the balance sheet as at that date.
3.6. Non current assets held for sale
The non current items held for sales represent fixed assets committed to be sold in the nearest future.
4.
Events after the balance sheet date
On July 14, 2004 the Regulator for the Telecommunication Market in Poland (“OTPR”) announced its intention to initiate two tenders to allocate available spectrum in the GSM 1800 MHz band and to issue a new UMTS licence. The tenders, in which the existing mobile operators will reportedly be allowed to participate, are expected to be finalized in the first quarter of 2005. In the coming months OTRP will proceed with preparation of tender documents, in which detailed condition for the operation of a potential new mobile operator will be worked out.
On July 19, 2004 the Company has been informed by OTPR about a request from TPSA demanding the regulator to set decreased rates for termination of calls in mobile networks. Current termination rates have been set in an agreement between PTC and TPSA, signed in December 2002. PTC will continue discussions with other telecommunication operators and with OTPR on the levels of interconnection rates and net margins earned by fixed line operators on fixed-to-mobile calls.
On July 16, 2004 Sejm (Lower House of Parliament) approved New Telecommunication Act. Also in July 2004 President signed the New Telecommunication Act and it will be in force 30 days after publication - on September 2, 2004.
The above events have no impact on this condensed consolidated financial statements as at June, 30 2004.

| ======== | ========= | ======== | ======== | ========= | ======== | ========= |
Forward contracts are used by the Company to hedge foreign exchange risk related to operational and financial transactions. The Company applies hedge accounting for financial transactions.
Note options represent the estimated fair values of call options embedded in the Company’s Notes. Upon exercise of the call option or upon redemption of the Notes by other means, the fair value of the relevant call options is written back to income immediately. Any reduced interest payments resulting from the redemption of the relevant Notes are recognized as they accrue.
On March 18, 2003 a new treaty on avoidance of double taxation between Poland and the Netherlands became law. The new treaty provides for a 5 percent withholding tax on interest payments whereas previously no tax was due. On April 29, 2004 the Republic of Poland was granted an eight year exemption period to the European Union ("EU") Directive 2003/49/EC of June 3, 2003 on a common system of taxation applicable to interest and royalty payments made between certain associated companies of different member states, which in effect enables Poland to collect withholding tax under the forementioned treaty. As a result, the Company will incur additional costs of 5 percent in servicing Note interest from 1 January 2005.
In addition to the Note Options, the Company’s Notes also contain Tax Redemption Options, which may allow the Company to redeem the 10 ?% Notes and 11¼% Notes at face value plus accrued interests in the circumstances described above.
14.
Derivative financial instruments (cont.)
As at the date of authorisation of these condensed financial statements, the Company Management’s process of collecting external legal advise on its right to utilise the Tax Call Options is ongoing and no decision has been taken by Company Management on utilisation of the Tax Call Options. Should Management obtain satisfactory final legal evaluations of its right to utilise the Tax Call Options and the Management then decides to utilise the Tax Call Options, the Note Options will be written off.
Currency options are used to reduce the risk of currency fluctuation and are measured at market value. The premium paid represents the initial option value.
CC swaps were designated as hedges against exposure to changes in future cash flows arising from the foreign exchange risk on the future interest coupon payments.
In 2003 the Company changed its Notes refinancing plans and effectively shortened the term of coupon payments exposure. As a result the maturity of some outstanding CC swap cash flows would exceed the planned date of Notes refinancing. In order to match those CC swap cash flows with the new refinancing plan the Company restructured outstanding CC swaps. The USD CC swaps were terminated.
In respect to EUR CC swaps, cash flows due after Notes refinancing would hedge other exposure than coupon payments namely EUR borrowings used for refinancing of part of EUR denominated Notes. The Company discontinued hedge accounting in relation to the part of the coupon payments on EUR denominated Notes that is no longer expected to occur.
As at June 30, 2004 the hedge reserve represented PLN 4,585 of the gross cumulative losses and PLN 6,174 of the gross cumulative gains on CC swaps retained in equity related to hedged interest coupon payments which are expected to occur and PLN 2,056 of the gross cumulative losses on forward contracts for which the Company applies hedge accounting.

Estimation of the fair values
The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments outstanding as at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, in million PLN. The carrying amounts in the table are included in the balance sheet under the indicated captions.

Current liabilities and accruals | 635 | 631 | 668 | 662 |
Long-term liabilities | 2,927 | 3,495 | 3,749 | 4,356 |
The fair value of derivatives held for trading is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The fair value of CC swaps is calculated as the present value of estimated future cash flows. The fair value of forward contracts is determined using forward exchange market rates at the balance sheet date.
In assessing fair value of non-traded derivatives and other financial instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance sheet date. Option pricing models and estimated discounted value of future cash flows are used to determine fair value of options split from the Notes and derivatives split from trade contracts.
All “regular way” purchases of financial assets are accounted for at the trade date.

a.
Removal of foreign exchange differences capitalized for IFRS
In accordance with IAS 23 “Borrowing Costs”, the Company capitalizes financing costs, including interest, foreign exchange gains or losses and hedging gains and losses to the extent they adjust foreign exchange differences initially capitalized, into assets under construction. The financing costs are capitalized only during period of construction or acquisition of the qualifying assets.
Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation”, however, foreign exchange differences relating to financing obligations should be included in the income statement of the Company. Consequently, the amounts of foreign exchange differences and hedging gains and losses on forward contracts capitalized in accordance with IAS 23 in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are expensed under US GAAP, while hedging gains or losses on CC swaps are recognized as other comprehensive gain or loss.

b.
Depreciation and amortization
The US GAAP adjustments for depreciation and amortization shown above represent the amounts of depreciation and amortization charges relating to capitalized foreign exchange differences and hedging gains and losses in the Company’s IFRS condensed consolidated financial statements. Since under US GAAP these foreign exchange differences and hedging gains and losses are not permitted to be capitalized and are instead expensed or recognized as the comprehensive gain or loss, the depreciation and amortization of these capitalized differences under IFRS has been reversed.
c.
Revenue recognition (SAB 101/EITF 00-21)
Under IFRS the Company implemented effective from January 1, 2004 the new recognition policy based on EITF 00-21 and restated previous periods retrospectively. Under US GAAP, the Company implemented principles of EITF 00-21 for the arrangements entered into on or after July 1, 2003 whereas the arrangements entered into before July 1, 2003 are settled under SAB 101 till contracts termination.
d.
SFAS No. 133
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”) requires every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) to be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The Statement requires that changes in the derivative instrument’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative instrument’s gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement, to the extent effective, and requires that a company must formally document, designate, and assess the eff ectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting.
The Company separates call options from long-term Notes’ host contract and accounts for them as derivatives under IAS 39, while they are not recognized as embedded derivatives for US GAAP purposes.
e.
Transaction costs
IAS 39 requires transaction costs to be included in the initial measurement of financial assets and liabilities. Under US GAAP these costs should be presented as deferred costs in the amount of PLN 47,974 as at June 30, 2004 and PLN 60,524 as at December 31, 2003.

SFAS No. 143
Effective on January 1, 2003 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS No. 143”). Upon adoption, the Company recorded the fair value of the liabilities for asset retirement obligations and increased the carrying amount of the associated long-lived asset. The liability is being accreted to its present value each period through charges to operating expense. The capitalized asset retirement cost is being depreciated over the shorter of the related asset’s useful life or the period to the expected settlement of the retirement obligation. As a result, the Company recorded in the income statement for 2003 an expense of PLN 19,671, representing a cumulative effect of the adoption of SFA S No. 143, net of taxes of PLN 4,614.
The Company has asset retirement obligations relating primarily to equipment and other leasehold improvements installed in leased network sites. Those leases generally contain provisions that require the Company to restore the sites to their original condition at the end of the lease term.
The development of the liability for asset retirement obligations for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 is presented below:
Cumulative effect change in adoption of accounting principle on liability as at January 1, 2003: | 54,011 |
Accretion expense | 4,075 |
New assets retirement obligations incurred | 1,543 |
| --------------- |
Liability for asset retirement obligations as at December 31, 2003 | 59,629 |
New assets retirement obligations incurred | 2,615 |
Accretion expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 | 1,982 |
Change of estimation of discount rate | (6,003) |
| ---------------- |
Liability for asset retirement obligations as at June 30, 2004 | 58,223 |
| ========= |
g.
Reclassification of CC swaps
Under IFRS the Company discontinued hedge accounting and recognized in the income statement for 2003 PLN 55,115 of gains previously recognized in equity. Under US GAAP the cumulative gains at the amount of PLN 8,673 resulting from the hedge accounting discontinuance have been retained as hedge reserve pending completion of forecasted replacement financing cash flows.
h.
Deferred taxation
Under IFRS the Company may, if certain criteria are met, net deferred tax liabilities and assets and present a net balance in the balance sheet. Under US GAAP current and
non-current portions, by tax jurisdiction, of the above should be disclosed separately. As at June 30, 2004 the Company recognized PLN 32,664 of net current deferred tax asset (PLN 99,930 as at December 31, 2003) and PLN 363,685 of net long-term deferred tax liability (PLN 360,896 as at December 31, 2003).
16.
Differences between IFRS and US GAAP (cont.)
h.
Deferred taxation (cont.)
Under IFRS changes in the fair value of Note options are not taxable transactions, which causes the effective tax rate on US GAAP adjustments different compared to corporate income tax rates for the periods.
i.
Other comprehensive income
The hedge reserve under US GAAP constitutes a part of other comprehensive income,
a component of shareholders’ equity. Under US GAAP the changes in other comprehensive income (hedge reserve) are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. A sum of other comprehensive income and net income for the period represents comprehensive income for the period.
j.
SFAS No. 95
The Company applied IAS 7 “Cash Flow Statement” so that cash flow from operating activities begins with net income before taxation, whereas Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95 “Statement of Cash Flows” (“SFAS No. 95”) requires cash flow from operating activities to begin with net income after tax. Under IFRS the Company presents the overdraft facility as a net amount in the balance of cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statements of cash flows while under US GAAP since no legal right of off – set of such amounts exists, the overdraft facility is not netted and presented under cash flows from financing activities.
k.
Assets held for sale
As at the end of second quarter of 2004 the Company presented all non current asset planned for sale as current assets on the face of balance sheet in line “Assets held for sale”. For purposes of US GAAP these items is reclassified to inventories.
l.
FIN 46
On December 24, 2003, the FASB issued a revised interpretation to FIN 46 (“FIN 46R”) to modify some of the provisions of FIN 46 and to exempt certain entities from its requirements. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 46R to all newly created entities after January 31, 2003 and to all existing SPEs and the modified provisions of FIN 46R to all entities that are not SPEs and which were created before February 1, 2003 as at March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004. The Company has a single finance lease agreement with Office Park Ltd. The lessor has been considered as a SPE due to single finance lease agreement, however the Company applies lease accounting to this arrangement and the related assets and liabilities are already reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated finan cial statements. There are no other material activities nor material assets or liabilities in this entity. The Company has also considered certain dealers contracts to identify additional VIEs. After analyzing these dealers agreements, the Company has concluded that certain dealers are VIEs. The maximum risk of expected losses from dealers contracts would be limited to the respective credit limits of such dealers totaling PLN 32,100 as at June 30, 2004. PTC has determined it is not the primary beneficiary of these entities.
