25.4.    Obligations under finance leases (continued) 
 
The assets acquired by the Group under finance leases are vehicles. The term of the contracts varies between 3 and 6 years.
At the end of 2014 all installments are paid in the financial lease contract with Raiffeisen Leasing Bulgaria OOD signed in
2008 and acquired 12 trucks and trailers for the transport of light fuels and gas. At December 31, 2014 the average
effective interest rate on finance lease agreements was 5.33%. 
 
The Group's management believes that the fair value of finance lease liabilities is not materially different from their
carrying value. 
 
Obligations under finance leases are secured by promissory notes issued by the Group in favor of lessors, which are due to
expire with the term of the contract. Promissory notes issued by the Group's obligations under the lease agreements are
availed from the controller to the company in November 2013. 
 
26.       Obligations under defined retirement benefit plans 
 
Up to March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 the Group recorded liabilities for defined retirement benefit plans for the
amount of BGN 497 thousand. The amount of the obligation is determined based on actuarial valuation based on assumptions
for mortality, disability, to leaving, wage growth and other. 
 
The present value of the obligation is calculated by applying a discount factor in the range of 3-3.5% and future wage
increase between 2% and 4%. 
 
Demographic assumptions are related to the likelihood that people will drop out before retirement for various reasons:
withdrawal of state cuts, illness, death, disability and others. These are based on statistical information on the
population and are attached to the structure of the staff by gender and age at the time of the assessment.

To secure its obligations under the contracts in connection with the Public Procurement Law, the Group has set up bank
guarantees amounting to the end of the reporting period to BGN 960 thousand. 
 
In connection with the loan received from a third party in 2013, a company of the Group is a founding sponsor and a pledge
on future receivables in the amount of USD 50,632 thousand. Since 2013 the companies from the Group are guarantors on loans
to unrelated party creditor in the amount of BGN 31,684 thousand with a residual value at March 31, 2015 amounted to BGN
11,155 thousand. A subsidiary has intervened in a debt bank loans to related parties until November 2013, with exposures to

has been conducted. Up to the date of registration, the pledge vehicles are fully depreciated.

In April a decision has been taken that a subsidiary from the Group should constitute through a contribution of assets
(land buildings, machinery and equipment) in petroleum bases its subsidiary named Petrol Sever EOOD. 
 
In April 2015, as a result of the assumed default in February, on the unpaid portion of the debt for syndicated bank
contract and acquired by a third party under a contract for the sale of receivables in 2014, the creditor has declared the
entire exposure of the subsidiary equivalent to the amount of BGN 41,336 thousand (with long-term portion BGN 25,648
thousand). Prepayment required and started enforcement proceedings against the assets backing the debt. 
 
In April 2015, unrelated party has proceeded to implement with respect to individual assets pledged in favor of commercial
enterprise of a company of the Group making the amount of EUR 5,750 thousand arising from a contract of sale of shares in
2014. 
 
In April 2015, a third party has proceeded to implement in regard to the pledged in his favor commercial enterprise of
Group's company with receivables amounted to BGN 5,002 thousand, which derives from a liability related to the acquisition
of a real estate in 2014.
