hundred three thousand litas). The Company's authorized capital will be divided

shares with a nominal value of LTL 1 (one litas) each. 

4. On 26th of November 2014 the Company and AB DNB entered into and signed a
long-term loan agreement according to which the Company will be granted a loan
of EUR 4 634 000 (four million six hundred thirty four thousand euros). The
loan term - 5 (five) years. The funds will be used to refinance the Company's
financial liabilities in respect of UAB “Swedbank lizingas” and to fulfil the
Company's settlement obligations in respect of the convertible bonds holders
(i.e. to pay the redemption price of the convertible bonds to be redeemed). 

“We are pleased that the board of AB “Utenos trikotažas” managed to find a
complex decision beneficial to all parties - the company, the bank and the
shareholders - that has also solved the long-term problems generated by the
global financial crisis back in 2008-2009, and hope that it will help to retain
the rapid growth of activity the company has had”, Algirdas Šabūnas, the
chairman of the AB “Utenos trikotažas” board, says. 

This decision eliminates the uncertainty that was present until now in respect
to the redemption of the bonds issued by the company, reinforces the share
capital and also reassures a long-term financing of the company in favourable
terms. 

There was an agreement reached with the bondholders about the conversion of 30%
of bonds into the share capital. According to Mr Šabūnas, this step of
bondholders and shareholders clearly signals of their trust in the company's
long-term strategy of investments into the development of innovative
technologies and materials, the development of the company-owned “ABOUT”
trademark, and the search for new markets and clients. The fact that this year
the company decreased the authorised capital and thus negated the loss in
balance helped to reach this goal. Without this step, it would have been
far-fetched to raise the additional capital. 

The fact that the banks have approved of the strategy and the dynamics in the
results of the company and have given their appealing proposals for the
long-term financing of the company, is also pleasing in itself. The five-year
long-term financing agreement that was drawn up today will not only allow the
company to redeem the remaining 70% of bonds, but also to significantly - more
than LTL 2m/year - reduce the interest expenditures, which will positively
influence the net results in the future. Certainly, this long-term financing
will ensure more opportunities to invest into the implementation of the
strategy than there had been before. 

“I believe that these news will reinforce the positions of the company in the
course of communication with our suppliers, clients, other partners and
investors, and will bring additional profit to the company, as well”, Algirdas
Šabūnas, the chairman of the AB “Utenos trikotažas” board, says. 

The operating profit of the AB “Utenos trikotažas” group for the 9 months of
2014 was LTL 4.2m (EUR 1.2m), while in the same period in 2013 the group earned
LTL 1.1m (EUR 0.3m) operating profit. AB “Utenos trikotažas” earned LTL 2.3m
(EUR 0.7m) of operating profit for the 9 months of 2014, while in the same
period in 2013 the company incurred LTL 0.05m (EUR 0.02m) operating loss.
