Review report of condensed interim financial information
To the shareholders and Board of Directors of LITGRID, AB
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying stand alone condensed interim statement of financial position of LITGRID, AB (hereinafter “the Company”) and consolidated condensed interim statement of financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries (hereinafter “the Group”) as of 30 June 2011 and the related stand alone and consolidated condensed interim statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six – month period then ended, and condensed explanatory notes set out on pages 5 - 27. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this stand alone and consolidated condensed interim financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial reporting (International Accounting Standard (IAS) No. 34, “Interim financial reporting”). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this stand alone and consolidated condensed interim financial information based on our review.
Scope of review
Except as explained in the following paragraph, we conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, ‘Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity’. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Basis for Qualified Conclusion - scope limitation
According to the Company’s and the Group’s accounting policy, property, plant and equipment should be carried at revalued amounts (being their fair values as of the date of revaluation less subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment losses) and are subject to an impairment test when impairment indicators exist. As explained in Note 3.8 to the condensed interim financial information, amendments to the legislation may have had a significant adverse impact on the fair value and recoverable amount of the Company’s and the Group’s assets. The Company’s and the Group’s management was not able to reassess fair values of property, plant and equipment with the carrying amounts of LTL 2,018 million and LTL 2,021 million as of 30 June 2011 (LTL 2,059 million and LTL 2,063 million as of 31 December 2010 respectively), or to carry out a proper impairment test. It has not been possible to estimate reliably the financial effects of this non-compliance.

Qualified Conclusion
Based on our review, except for the possible effects of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim stand alone and consolidated financial information are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial reporting (International Accounting Standard (IAS) No. 34, "Interim financial reporting").

NOTES TO THE CONDENCED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2011
(All amounts in LTL thousands unless otherwise stated)
1. General information
LITGRID AB (the name of the company was LITGRID Turtas AB until 14 March 2011) is a public company registered in the Republic of Lithuania. The address of its registered office is: A. Juozapavičiaus g. 13, LT-09311, Vilnius, Lithuania. LITGRID AB (hereinafter "the Company") is a limited liability profit-making entity registered with the Register of Legal Entities managed by the public institution Registrų Centras on 16 November 2010. The Company's code is 302564383; VAT payer's code is LT100005748413.
After the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Lietuvos Energija AB held on 28 October 2010 approved the unbundling of Lietuvos Energija AB, the amended Articles of Association of Lietuvos Energija AB which continues its activities after the spin-off were registered with the Register of Legal Entities on 16 November 2010 along with those of the new company LITGRID Turtas AB, established on the basis of the separated part of Lietuvos Energija AB. The newly established company is engaged in activities that were assigned to it after the spin-off.
The principal activities of the Company include ensuring the stability and reliability of electric power system in the territory of Lithuania within its areas of competence, creation of objective and non-discriminatory conditions for the use of the transmission networks, management, use and disposal of electricity transmission system assets and its appurtenances, management of companies engaged in transmission trading and market operator's activities including management of companies owing electricity interconnections with other countries or those that develop, manage, use or dispose them.
The unbundling of Lietuvos Energija AB was carried out in the manner prescribed in paragraph 1 of Article 71 of the Lithuanian Law on Companies, i.e. when a part of the company, which continues its activities, is separated and on the basis of assets, rights and obligations assigned to this separated part one or several new companies of the same legal form are established. The unbundling was performed by separating part of Lietuvos Energija AB as an aggregate of assets, rights and obligations representing an autonomous economic unit in terms of organisation, engaged in activities and able to perform its functions at its own discretion which is the basis for the establishment of a new company LITGRID Turtas AB.
The aim of unbundling (spin-off) was to ensure the compliance of the activity model of the Lithuanian electricity sector with the national energy strategy, the requirements of the third legislative package for the European Union energy meant for liberalisation of electricity and gas markets, to create conditions for connection of the Lithuanian electricity system with the electricity networks of the continental Europe and to ensure the financing of strategic energy projects. It was also aimed at creation of conditions for legal independence of the electricity transmission activity and its effective separation from other activities of the electricity sector, thus implementing one of the selected alternatives of separation of the electricity sector established by the third legislative package for the EU energy, i.e. ownership unbundling, ensuring effective separation of electricity transmission activity not only from electricity generation and supply, but also from distribution activities and their commercial interests, i.e. rearrange the vertically integrated energy companies operating in the electricity sector.
Under the terms and conditions of the reorganisation of Lietuvos Energija AB approved by the decision of the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders dated 28 October 2010, a transfer-acceptance act was signed on 1 December 2010, on the basis of which the Company took over a part of assets, rights and obligations of Lietuvos Energija AB assigned to the separated part as defined in the spin-off conditions of the Company.
With effect from 1 January 2010, the function of the transmission system operator was carried out by the Company's subsidiary LITGRID AB.

FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2011
(All amounts in LTL thousands unless otherwise stated)
2. Basis of preparation
This Company's and consolidated Group's condensed interim financial information for the six month period ended 30 June 2011 has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and applicable to interim financial reporting (International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, 'Interim financial reporting'). This financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union.
The financial year of the Company and other Group companies coincides with the calendar year.
3. Accounting policies
Except as described below, the accounting policies and calculation methods applied in the preparation of this condensed interim financial information are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented.
Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings.
3.1 Adoption of new and (or) amended IFRS and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC)
IAS 24, 'Related party disclosures' (amended in November 2009; effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011). IAS 24 was revised in 2009 by: (a) simplifying the definition of a related party, clarifying its intended meaning and eliminating inconsistencies from the definition; and by (b) providing a partial exemption from the disclosure requirements for government-related entities.
The Company/Group started to apply this standard from the financial period which started on 1 January 2011. The standard was applied retrospectively. The amended standard does not require government-related entities to disclose transactions and balances arising from these transactions, including off-balance sheet liabilities, conducted with the state or state related companies. The adoption of the standard did not significantly affect the disclosure of transactions with related parties and balances arising from these transactions in the condensed interim financial information.
Improvements to International Financial Reporting Standards (issued in May 2010; effective dates vary standard by standard, most improvements are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011). Improvements did not have a significant impact on the Company's/Group's condensed interim financial information.
3.2 New or revised standards effective in 2011 but not relevant to the Group and the Company
Classification of rights issues – Amendment to IAS 32, 'Financial instruments: Presentation'.
Prepayments of a minimum funding requirement – Amendment to IFRIC 14.
IFRIC 19, 'Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments'.
Limited exemption from comparative IFRS 7 disclosures for first-time adopters – Amendment to IFRS 1.
3.3 New or revised standards and interpretations that are mandatory for the Group's and Company's accounting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011 or later periods and which the Group and Company have not early adopted
IFRS 9, 'Financial instruments' (issued in November 2009; effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013, with earlier application permitted; not yet adopted by the EU). IFRS 9 replaces those parts of IAS 39 relating to the classification and measurement of financial assets. The Company/Group does not expect the standard to have a significant impact on the financial statements.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
3.3 New or revised standards and interpretations that are mandatory for the Group's and Company's accounting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011 or later periods and which the Group and Company have not early adopted
IFRS 10, 'Consolidated financial statements' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; not yet adopted by the EU). The standard replaces all of the guidance on control and consolidation in IAS 27 'Consolidated and separate financial statements' and SIC-12 'Consolidation – special purpose entities'. IFRS 10 changes the definition of control so that the same criteria are applied to all entities to determine control. This definition is supported by extensive application guidance. The Company and the Group are currently assessing the impact of this standard on the financial statements.
IFRS 11, 'Joint arrangements' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; not yet adopted by the EU). The standard replaces IAS 31 'Interests in joint ventures' and SIC-13 'Jointly controlled entities – non-monetary contributions by ventures'. Changes in the definitions have reduced the number of "types" of joint arrangements to two: joint operations and joint ventures. The existing policy choice of proportionate consolidation for jointly controlled entities has been eliminated. Equity accounting is mandatory for participants in joint ventures. The Company and the Group are currently assessing the impact of this standard on the financial statements.
IFRS 12, 'Disclosure of interests in other entities' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; not yet adopted by the EU). The standard applies to entities that have an interest in a subsidiary, a joint arrangement, an associate or an unconsolidated structured entity; it replaces the disclosure requirements currently found in IAS 28 'Investments in associates'. IFRS 12 requires an entity to disclose information that enables users of financial statements to evaluate the nature, risks and financial effects associated with the entity's interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint arrangements and unconsolidated structured entities. To meet these objectives, the new standard requires disclosures in a number of areas, including significant judgements and assumptions made in determining whether an entity controls, jointly controls or significantly influences its interests in other entities, extended disclosures on share of non-controlling interests in group activities and cash flows, summarised financial information of subsidiaries with material non-controlling interests, and detailed disclosures of interests in unconsolidated structured entities. The Company and the Group are currently assessing the impact of this standard on the financial statements.
IFRS 13, 'Fair value measurement' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; not yet adopted by the EU). The standard aims to improve consistency and reduce complexity by providing a precise definition of fair value, and a single source of fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across IFRSs. The Company/Group does not expect the standard to have a significant impact on the financial statements.
IAS 19 (revised 2011), 'Employee benefits' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; not yet adopted by the EU). The Company/Group does not expect the standard to have a significant impact on the financial statements.
IAS 27 (revised 2011), 'Separate financial statements' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; not yet adopted by the EU). The Company and the Group are currently assessing the impact of this standard on the financial statements.
IAS 28 (revised 2011), 'Investments in associates and joint ventures' (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013; not yet adopted by the EU). The Company and the Group are currently assessing the impact of this standard on the financial statements.
Disclosures—Transfers of financial assets – Amendments to IFRS 7 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011; not yet adopted by the EU). The Company/Group does not expect the amendments to have a significant impact on the financial statements.
Deferred Tax: Recovery of underlying assets – Amendment to IAS 12 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012; not yet adopted by the EU). The Company/Group does not expect the amendment to have a significant impact on the financial statements.
Severe hyperinflation and removal of fixed dates for first-time adopters – Amendment to IFRS 1 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2011; not yet adopted by the EU). The amendment will not have any impact on the Company's/Group's financial statements.
Presentation of items of other comprehensive income – Amendment to IAS 1 (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2012; not yet adopted by the EU). The Company/Group does not expect the amendment to have a significant impact on the financial statements.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
3.4 Business combinations
IFRS 3, 'Business combinations' is not applied to acquisitions of subsidiaries between jointly controlled entities, therefore such acquisitions were recognised using predecessor accounting. The Group did not restate assets and liabilities to their fair value as at the acquisition date, instead the Group combined the acquired assets and liabilities at their carrying amounts. No goodwill arises in predecessor accounting and the consolidated financial statements incorporate the combined companies' results as if the combined entity had always existed. A combination of businesses under common control is also accounted for as if the combined entity had always existed.
3.5 Grants
Asset-related grants
Government and the European Union grants and third party compensations received in the form of non-current assets or intended for the purchase, construction or other acquisition of non-current assets are considered as asset-related grants. Grants are initially recorded as liability at fair value of the asset and later recognised as revenue, reducing the depreciation charge of related asset over the expected useful life of the asset. Public service obligations (PSO) service fees allocated for the implementation of strategic projects are recognised as government grants.
3.6 Income and expense recognition
Tariffs for the electricity transmission services and PSO services are regulated by the National Control Commission for Prices and Energy (hereinafter "the Commission") by establishing the upper limit of the tariff for the transmission service and PSO service prices. Specific prices and tariffs for the transmission services are established by the supplier of the service within the limits approved by the Commission.
PSO service fees are the fees paid to the suppliers of electricity under the public service obligations scheme (based on annual quantities and prices of services established in advance). These fees are collected from customers, i.e. the distribution system operator and end users connected to the transmission network, using the tariff for PSO services established by the Commission.
PSO services are rendered under the PSO scheme approved by Order No. 1-283 of 8 October 2010 of the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Lithuania. Under the PSO scheme the Company/Group, a transmission system operator, acts as an administrator of PSO service fees. By collecting and disbursing PSO service fees the Company/Group acts only as an agent.
If in the previous calendar year fees collected by the Company/Group from customers for PSO services exceeded or were less than the actual payments for PSO services, the difference needs to be taken into account by the Commission when setting the tariff for PSO services for the next year. The Company/Group receives an approved fixed portion of the PSO service tariff revenue that is allocated for the compensation of expenses related to the administration of PSO service fees and PSO service fees for PSO services provided, i.e. the balancing of electricity produced using renewable energy sources.
In order to fairly present the administration of PSO service fees the Company/Group has made changes in the accounting policy of PSO service fees from January 2011. Currently, only a fee for PSO administration services and PSO service fees received for the compensation of expenses incurred for the balancing of electricity produced using renewable energy sources are recognised as income by the Company/Group. A difference between PSO service fees collected and disbursed is recognised in the Company's/Group's accounts receivable (payable).
3.7 Change in accounting policies. Restatement of comparatives
Until 2011 PSO service fees received by the Company/Group were recorded as income earned and PSO service fees disbursed as expenses incurred.
In performing PSO-related activities the Company/Group acts only as an agent on behalf of the Commission/Government and these activities do not generate revenue/profit for the Company/Group in the normal course of business. A resolution has been passed by the Lithuanian Government which stipulates that the Company/Group acts only as an administrator/agent and the Company/Group and the Commission have separate systems to tracks these transactions.
Seeking to improve the disclosure of the Company's/Group's financial position, financial performance and cash flows and reflect the actual substance of PSO administration activities, in 2011 management decided to make changes in the accounting policy applied to PSO service fees being administered.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
3.7 Change in accounting policies. Restatement of comparatives (continued)
Given that the Company/Group acts only as an intermediary on behalf of the Commission/Government, revenues from the collection of tariffs from customers are netted against the disbursements to the electricity generators in the statement of comprehensive income. Only the amount of PSO service fees as approved by the Government in advance that is received for PSO services rendered and for PSO administration services is recognised as income by the Company/Group. A difference between PSO service fees received and disbursed is recognised in accounts receivable (payable).
The Company/Group changed its accounting policy for PSO service fees being administered and applied the changes retrospectively. In accordance with IAS 8, 'Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors' when changes in the accounting policies are applied retrospectively the Company/Group is required to adjust the opening balance of each affected item of equity at the beginning of the earliest reporting period presented as well as comparative figures of all other prior reporting periods presented as if the new accounting policy had always been applied.
Information about the effect of changes in the accounting policy on the Group's assets, liabilities, equity as at 31 December 2010 is given below.

Information about the effect of changes in the accounting policy on the Company's assets, liabilities, equity as at 31 December 2010 is presented in Note 11.
3.8 Critical accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial information in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and costs and contingencies. The areas where estimates are significant to this financial information include fair value measurement and depreciation of property, plant and equipment and investment property, evaluation of impairment for accounts receivable and investments and percentage of completion evaluation for repair service contracts. Future events may cause the assumptions used in arriving at the estimates to change. The effect of such changes in the estimates will be recorded in the financial statements when determined. Accounting estimates applied in preparing the condensed interim financial information are consistent with those that were applied in preparing the annual financial statements.
Tax audits
The tax authorities may at any time inspect the books and records within 5 years subsequent to the reported tax year, and may impose additional tax assessments and penalties. The Company's and Group's management is not aware of any circumstances which may give rise to a potential material liability in this respect.
Depreciation rates of property, plant and equipment
In assessing the remaining useful life of property, plant and equipment management takes account of the conclusions by the employees responsible for technical maintenance of assets.

3.8 Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)
Revaluation of property, plant and equipment
During the spin-off process the Company took over property, plant and equipment from Lietuvos Energija AB. The fair value of property, plant and equipment and investment property of Lietuvos Energija AB as at 31 December 2008 was determined by independent valuers who used a method of comparative prices or depreciated replacement value or discounted cash flows methods to determine the fair value of the assets, depending on the type of asset.
As at 31 December 2009, management of Lietuvos Energija AB revised carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment in accordance with the revaluation method. Having assessed the drop in the construction cost indices in 11 months of 2009 in respect of relevant categories of assets which is published by the Lithuanian Statistics Department, Lietuvos Energija AB reduced the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment. Lietuvos Energija AB applied a 12.27 per cent statistical index in respect of the category of buildings and a 9.68 per cent index in respect of other categories of property, plant and equipment that at 31 December 2008 were revalued based on the depreciated replacement cost method. In addition, property, plant and equipment of Lietuvos Energija AB mainly real estate (administrative buildings and warehouses) that as at 31 December 2008 was revalued using the comparative prices method, was revalued at 31 December 2009 based on the report on fair value changes of industrial real estate in Lithuania by region in 2009 provided by an independent valuer Ober-Haus Nekilnojamasis Turtas UAB. This report was derived from market evidence on changes in real estate prices.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The Group and the Company make an assessment, at least annually, whether there are any indicators that the book value of property, plant and equipment has been impaired. If that is the case, the Group and the Company make an impairment test.
The Group and the Company account for property, plant and equipment at fair value in accordance with International Accounting Standard No.16 'Property, plant and equipment'. Fair value of mostly all items of property, plant and equipment of the Group and the Company due to their specific nature is measured using a depreciated replacement cost approach at 31 December 2008.
If the value of assets is measured based on a depreciated replacement cost method, International Valuation Standards require that an adequate profitability test is performed. Accounting standards require a periodical review of property, plant and equipment for impairment. The value of property, plant and equipment should be reduced if its carrying value in the statement of financial position is higher than either its value in use or fair value less cost to sell. In other words, this means that the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment shown in the statement of financial position should be written down to the higher of either the current value of the future benefits that would be derived by the Group and Company from the continued use of the assets or the proceeds it would derive from the asset's immediate retirement and disposal.
The previous version of the Lithuanian Law on Electricity valid at 31 December 2008 stipulated that the price caps of electricity transmission, distribution and public supply services were determined based on the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider with values being established on the grounds of data reported in the service provider's financial statements (Regulated Assets Base).
According to the amendment effective from 1 June 2009 the Law now requires the price caps of electricity transmission, distribution and public supply services to be determined based on the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider with values being estimated and approved by the National Control Commission for Prices and Energy in accordance with the principles of determination of the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider that have been drafted by the Commission and approved by the Government.
According to the Resolution on the Methodology of Determination of the Value of Assets used in Licensed Activities of the Electricity Service Provider, the determination of the price caps of electricity transmission, distribution and public supply services is to include the value of assets used in licensed activities of the service provider which is equal to net book value (carrying amount) of property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2002 as increased by the amount of investments implemented and agreed with the Commission and reduced by the depreciation amount calculated pursuant to the procedure stipulated by the Lithuanian Law on Income Tax, etc.
Management believes that the aforementioned amendments to regulatory legislation may have a significant negative impact on fair value of property, plant and equipment. Due to the reasons specified, values of property, plant and equipment reported in these financial statements may materially differ from those that would be determined if the valuation of assets was performed by independent valuers as required by International Valuation and Accounting Standards. It is probable that such valuation would have a negative effect on the results of the Company's activities and the shareholders' equity reported in the financial statements for the year 2010 and 2011.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
3.8 Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)
Valuation of fair values of property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2010 and 30 June 2011 was not performed by independent valuers, as the mentioned amendments to regulatory legislation came into force only from 1 January 2010 and the impact of these amendments on the Group's and the Company's ability to earn income in future periods cannot be reliably estimated.
Impairment of investments in subsidiaries (in the Company) and associates (in the Group and the Company)
Since the shares of the subsidiaries and associated entities are not listed, the Group/Company estimated the recoverable value of these investments based on the carrying value of the Group's/Company's share of the subsidiary's/associate's net assets, which approximates its fair value as at 30 June 2011 based on the judgement of management.
The underlying principles used for other material estimates are outlined in the respective notes to the financial statements.
As at the date of these financial statements, there was no significant risk that the book amount of assets and liabilities will be subject to important corrections in the next accounting year due to changes in management's assumptions and estimates, except for the adjustments which might be needed due to uncertainties in respect of the determination of the value of property, plant and equipment used in licensed activities as at 30 June 2011, as described above.

8. Segment information
Management distinguished business segments based on the reports reviewed by the Board. The Board analyses business operations by geographical areas and types of products provided. Operating profit (loss) is a profitability indicator analysed by management.
The Group has distinguished the following business segments (activities): activities of the transmission system operator consisting of four individual segments as explained below, market operator and other activities. Aiming to match the structure of income and expenses of the transmission activity with the Methodology of the Determination of Prices and Price Caps of Electricity Transmission and Distribution Services developed by the State Commission for Prices and Energy (approved by Order No. O3-139 of 25 September 2009), the following products (services) are distinguished in activities of the transmission system operator:
- electricity transmission;
- trade in balancing/regulating electricity;
- provision of capacity reserve services;
- public service obligations (PSO) electricity sales.
The electricity transmission segment is engaged in providing transmission services to network users and is responsible for management, maintenance, development, integrity and coherence of the transmission network of the Lithuanian power system and the interconnections with the power systems of other countries, as well as ensuring reliable and safe operation of the entire Lithuanian power system. These activities are regulated by the Commission by establishing the tariffs for electricity transmission services.
Trade in balancing/regulating electricity is a separate service of the transmission system operator ensuring the balance of electricity generation and consumption levels.
The capacity reserve is used in extreme conditions when the generation of electricity declines or its consumption increases. The Company is responsible for the control and management of capacity reserves of all types and additional services.
PSO services are rendered under the PSO scheme approved by Order No. 1-283 of 8 October 2010 of the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Lithuania. Under the PSO scheme the Company/Group, a transmission system operator, acts as an administrator of PSO service fees. By collecting and disbursing PSO service fees the Company/Group acts only as an agent. In order to fairly present the administration of PSO service fees the Company/Group has made changes in the accounting policy of PSO service fees from January 2011. Currently, only a fee for PSO administration services and PSO service fees for the compensation of expenses incurred for the balancing of electricity produced using renewable energy sources are recognised as income by the Company/Group. Details on changes in the accounting policy are presented in Note 3.7.
In 2010, the Group distinguished a business segment 'Other products (services) of the transmission system operator'. Starting from 2011, the Group's management analyses this business segment along with the electricity transmission segment. In the financial statements for 2011 this segment is presented as a part of the electricity transmission segment.
BALTPOOL UAB carries out the functions of the Lithuanian power market operator. BALTPOOL UAB does not recognise income and expenses from transmission trading and a turnover fee in the power exchange as it acts as an agent rather than a principal electricity buyer/seller in transactions related to settlements for electricity purchased/sold at the power exchange. BALTPOOL UAB generates income from provision of market administration services.
TETAS UAB, a subsidiary of the Company, is engaged in other type of activities. These activities include repair services of energy facilities, specialised technical maintenance of transformer substations, distribution stations, engineering, installation of energy objects and other services.
Transactions between the Group companies are conducted at market prices, except for transmission trading and the related services which are traded within the Group at prices established by the Commission.

12. Significant events after the balance sheet date
The National Control Commission for Prices and Energy resolved that the funds of LTL 479 million designated for the financing of the international electricity interconnection project NordBalt in the period of 2010-2016 will be allocated from fees collected for the provision of PSO services. In addition, LTL 226 million was allocated by the European Union. The PSO service tariff, which is included in the final price of electricity paid by consumers, is set for this year at 6.01 ct/kWh, of which 0.9 ct/kWh is allocated for the financing of strategic projects. According the approved model, next year 0.82 ct/kWh of the PSO service tariff will be allocated for the implementation of the NordBalt project. The investment of the Swedish transmission system operator Svenska Kraftnat in the interconnection between the electricity transmission systems of Lithuania and Sweden will amount to SEK 2.3 billion. The total value of the NordBalt project is LTL 1.471 billion. The interconnection NordBalt is to be put into operation in December of 2015.
