Regulatory Report on Payments to Governments in respect of Logging Industries for the Year 2022

This report of payments to governments is made by Mondi plc and its subsidiary undertakings (‘Mondi’) for
the year ended 31 December 2022 as required by companies in the extractive and logging industries of their
payments to governments in countries in which they operate.
The report is prepared in compliance with the UK’s Report on Payments to Governments Regulations 2014
(as amended in December 2015) (the ‘Regulation’) and in accordance with DTR 4.3A of the Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules of the UK Financial Conduct Authority.
To read details of Mondi’s payments to governments go to www.mondigroup.com/en/governance/regulatory-
reports

Basis of preparation

The application of the Regulation for Mondi relates to our logging activities and specifically to the disclosure
of payments to governments relating to the logging of primary forests.
We have used the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations definition of ‘primary forest’ being:

‘Naturally regenerated forest of native tree species, where there are no clearly visible indications of human
activities and the ecological processes are not significantly disturbed’.

Also, for the purposes of this report, the original ‘IFL 2000’ (Greenpeace, World Resources Institute (WRI)
and Transparent World) inventory of intact forests has been used as the base for reporting on the harvesting
of primary forests in the Komi Republic, Russia (‘Komi’).

Only a portion of our Syktyvkar logging operations in Komi fall within the above definition of primary forests.
Our operations in South Africa comprise plantation forests that are not associated with any primary forests
and therefore are excluded from the report.
Our logging operations in Komi do not result in deforestation. In terms of the Russian Forestry Code and
Mondi’s sustainable development policies all logged areas are regenerated, either naturally or via planting
where required, including tending and protection of the young forest stands for the next sustainable forest
cycle. During logging operations protected areas, High Conservation Value (HCV) areas and sensitive
biotopes, comprising approximately 1/4 of the area, are set aside for conservation.

Exchange rate

Payments made in currencies other than the euro (Mondi Group’s reporting currency) are translated for this
report using the average exchange rate during the financial year to which it relates.
