-
- Shareholders of the Company indicated in section 4 of the Rules who wish to exercise their right to sell shares of the Company to the Company should contact their chosen intermediary of public trading in securities and, using their services, submit the order specified in section 14.
-
- Shareholders of the Company who submit the order envisaged in section 14 of the Rules shall have the right to revoke it until 15:30 on 9 th November 2020. Given that rules for submitting and revoking orders of shareholders of the Company are established by agreements between each specific shareholder of the Company and their chosen intermediary of public trading in securities, the Company and/or the Management Company are not obliged (and cannot be deemed obliged) to ensure that orders submitted by a specific shareholder of the Company or their revocations are executed properly and on time. Thus a shareholder of the Company who seeks to submit shares of the Company for buy-back or to revoke a submitted order should contact their chosen intermediary of public trading in securities.
-
- The Management Company shall take measures to ensure that shares of the Company are presented for buy-back only by shareholders of the Company who meet the requirements stipulated in the Rules and in the manner required by the provisions of the Rules. If it determines based on information provided by intermediaries of public trading in securities that shares of the Company have been presented for buyback without complying with requirements of the Rules, the Management Company has the right to not accept the presented shares of the Company for buy-back.
-
- Shareholders of the Company envisaged in section 4 of the Rules are not required to submit separate notification regarding their opposition to the decisions of the Meeting. Submission of the order envisaged in section 14 of the Rules shall be deemed to be their opposition to the proposed changes.
Notification of shareholders
-
- Information about the possibility of expressing (confirming) opposition to the changes in the Company's Articles of Association and/or to the change of provider of depository services and at the same time demanding the buy-back of the shares of the Company specified in section 9 of the Rules which they hold (by submitting the order envisaged in section 14 of the Rules) will be provided only to the shareholders of the Company specified in section 4 of the Rules.
-
- To shareholders of the Company whose correspondence addresses are known to the Management Company, this information will be provided by registered letter, sending notifications to the Company shareholders' correspondence addresses known to the Management Company and publishing the information (it shall be deemed that shareholders of the Company have received the corresponding personal notifications on the 10th calendar day after their dispatch (unless the Management Company receives confirmation of the delivery of the notifications at an earlier date)).
-
- To shareholders of the Company whose correspondence addresses are not known to the Management Company, this information will be provided publicly via the Nasdaq Vilnius information system, on the website of the Company and in Lietuvos Rytas newspaper (it shall be deemed that shareholders have received the corresponding personal notifications on the 11th calendar day after the information is published via the Nasdaq Vilnius information system).
-
- Considering that the shareholders of the Company who approved the Meeting issues by which the Company's Articles of Association are being changed substantially and/or the Company's provider of depository services is being changed are informed about the changes of the Company's operations and do not have the right to present shares of the Company which they hold for buy-back, they will not be provided with the separate notifications envisaged in section 21 of the Rules.
