Agreement to use the ferry Regula as a replacement vessel until the end of 2028

Agreement to use the ferry Regula as a replacement vessel until the end of 2028

Based on the successful tender, a passenger transport public service contract
was signed on 10 September 2024 between the Ministry of Regional Development and
Agriculture (hereinafter: "Ministry") and OÜ TS Laevad (hereinafter: "TS
Laevad") for the provision of transport services for a period of seven years
starting on 1 October 2026.

According to the agreement, TS Laevad will provide passenger transport services
on the Virtsu-Kuivastu and Rohuküla-Heltermaa ferry routes with four ferries
belonging to TS Laevad and one additional state-owned ferry between 01.10.2026
and 30.09.2033. According to the same agreement, TS Laevad is obliged to provide
a replacement vessel for the state-owned ferry if it is not completed by
01.10.2026.

On 13.01.2026, the Ministry and TS Laevad signed an amendment to the agreement,
according to which the ferry Regula, owned by TS Laevad, will be used instead of
the state-owned ferry until 31.12.2028.

According to the contract amendment, Regula will make up to 800 trips per year
in the period 01.10.2026-31.12.2028. The Ministry will pay an additional fixed
fee and a variable fee for the use of Regula each year, to which a trip fee
component will be added. The Ministry has the right to extend the period of use
of Regula by three months, i.e. until 31.03.2029.

The costs and investments related to the use of the ferry Regula, including the
expected return, are covered by the additional fee agreed upon in the contract
amendment.

Valdo Kalm, Chairman of the Board of the Port of Tallinn, commented: "The
contract amendment has a positive impact on TS Laevad and, more broadly, on the
investors of the Port of Tallinn, as it allows the use of the ferry Regula to be
extended until the end of 2028, which will result in stable income and return on
assets."
