Two-thirds of the 15% being offered for sale will be sold to international investors by means of global depositary receipts registered in London, UK.

Poland gears up for privatization of petroleum firms
Article Abstract:
Poland is about to start privatizing its petroleum refining and distribution companies after years of delay. In the next several days, the Polish government will solicit bids to acquire a majority stake in Rafineria Gdanska SA, the smaller of Poland's two big petroleum corporations. The Polish government will give investors the option to acquire up to 200 fuel stations from Centrala Produktov Naftowych SA (CPN), the country's leading fuel-station chain with 1,400 stations, to lure investors to buy a stake of Gdanska.
