Reasons for the withdrawal of the pre-emptive right; person to whom the right to acquire newly issued shares of the Company is proposed to be granted The Company is considering raising additional equity capital via a public placement to current shareholders as well as other investors to finance expansion of its operations, to strengthen its shareholders' base and to increase the liquidity of the shares of the Company in the secondary market. To accomplish this goal, the Company proposes the increase of the authorised capital of the Company as well as withdrawal of the pre-emptive right of its current shareholders. To analyse the available options and to secure the required assistance in placing the shares, the Company has retained UAB FMĮ "Orion securities", a private limited liability company, legal entity code 122033915, the address of the registered office at Tumėno g. 4, Vilnius (hereinafter, “Orion”), represented by the Director, Mr. Alius Jakubėlis, to act as an Arranger and a Lead Manager of the potential transaction. The Company is proposing to undertake a public placing to current shareholders (by withdrawal of the pre-emptive right) as well as other investors, which it considers to be a practical decision for raising additional equity and securing the possibility of the current shareholders' of the Company participation in the placement. Furthermore, the indicated structuring of the transaction (including withdrawal of the pre-emptive right) would ensure that the Company is flexible with its timing as well as with its length, as such transaction would not be subject to any certain restrictions on the earliest date of starting the offering and the shortest period of subscription for shares. Due to the nature of the envisaged transaction, Orion may need to borrow a certain amount of existing shares from one of the current shareholders to facilitate settlement of the transaction. It is intended that such borrowed shares will be used for settlement with investors whilst, the Arranger will use the proceeds to subscribe for the new issue shares and return the shares to the lender. For the reasons indicated above and as a technical measure, it is sought to withdraw the pre-emptive right of the current shareholders of the Company to acquire the shares to be newly issued and to grant the right to acquire such shares to Orion. It is hereby suggested to grant Orion the right to subscribe for and acquire newly issued shares of the Company (up to 5,700,000) in its contemplated role of the Arranger. Furthermore, for the purpose of the aforementioned potential transactions, current shareholder of the Company, UAB „GINVILDOS INVESTICIJA“, code 125436533, registered at Turniškių st. 10A-2, Vilnius, consented to lend a relevant amount of the outstanding and paid shares of the Company, equal to the maximum number of the new shares to be issued during this increase of the authorised capital of the Company (i.e. up to 5,700,000 shares), to Orion in its contemplated role of the Arranger. Substantiation of the price of the new issue shares It is suggested that the Meeting of shareholders of the Company set only the minimal issue price of each newly issued share of the Company, making it equal to the par value of the shares, i.e. LTL 1 (one litas). Accordingly, it is suggested that the total minimal issue price of all the new shares (in case all of them are subscribed) is to be fixed at LTL 5,700,000 (five million seven hundred thousand litas). The final issue price of the new issue shares will be equal to the sale price of the lent shares sold to the institutional investors. The Board of the Company will determine the sale price of the lent shares (which also means the issue price of the new shares) by its decision, upon receipt of SEB Enskilda's recommendations, before the start of the transfer of the lent shares to the institutional investors, based on demand and price indications received from the investors. It is expected that the issue price will be at or around the price prevailing in the market at the time of closing of the intended transaction.
