On November 14, 2024, Fusion Factor Fintech Limited (the “Buyer”, a Hong Kong company wholly owned by Mr. Andrey Protopopov) requested a deferral of the second and third installments, citing ongoing challenges in its Russian business operations1 that continue to significantly hinder its ability to timely settle its payment obligations. The Buyer also informed the Company that it is engaged in negotiations with Russian regulatory authorities and other counterparties to agree on the optimal way of settling the liability. The Buyer has committed to make its best efforts to settle all its obligations under the share purchase agreement at the same time, including those that will not have become due at that time.
The Board considered this request and authorized the extension of the payment term for the second and third installments under the Transaction, amounting to RUB 11,875 million and RUB 2,969 million, respectively, to May 31, 2025.
