"Rationale for the Offers
The rationale for the Offers is to utilise the Group’s liquidity outside of Ukraine to proactively manage the Company’s debt burden, smooth cash outflows for debt service, improve the Group’s overall debt sustainability, as well as to lower liquidity pressures for the upcoming maturities of the 2025 Notes and the 2026 Notes, given the ongoing turbulent operating environment for the Group.
The ongoing war in Ukraine, coupled with volatile prices on the Group’s products present unprecedented challenges to the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. Furthermore, although as at 31 December 2023 the Company and its subsidiaries outside Ukraine had sufficient cash balances to meet the Company’s scheduled interest payment obligations in the near term, there are certain limitations on sending cash upstream to the Company from its Ukrainian subsidiaries given the National Bank of Ukraine’s current currency control restrictions, and there can be no assurance that these restrictions will be lifted, or waivers from such restrictions will be granted, when required or at all.
The Offers give Noteholders an option to decrease their exposure to the Group in the context of an ongoing war. The Group’s business remains susceptible to a number of risks which are beyond management’s control and include, among others: increased intensity of Russian assaults on the frontline; escalated strikes on Ukraine’s power assets and the resulting disruption to availability of grid power for the Group’s operations; uncertain sustainability of the Black Sea navigation; deficit of the personnel due to mobilisation in Ukraine; and volatile prices for key products. These risks could adversely affect the price of the Notes in the future. See also “Risk Factors and Other Considerations – Uncertainty as to the trading market for Notes not purchased” in the Tender Offer Memorandum."
