In 2011, the LOTOS Group had one customer whose share in the Group’s total revenue exceeded 10%, namely Shell POLSKA Sp. z o.o. of Warsaw (the company's share in the Group's total revenue was 10.25%). In 2010, there were no customers whose share in the LOTOS Group’s total revenue would exceed 10%. The share of receivables from Shell POLSKA Sp. z o.o., or any other customer, in the LOTOS Group's total assets did not exceed 10%.

In the Company's opinion, with the exception of receivables from Shell POLSKA Sp. z o.o, there is no significant concentration of credit risk related to trade receivables. As at the balance-sheet date, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is best represented by the carrying amounts of these instruments.
