    Let \(b_k (x) = (x + \beta_{k1}) \cdots (x + b_{kn})\), \(b(x) = (x + \beta_1) \cdots (x + \beta_n)\), \(\beta_j\), \(\beta_{k_j} \in \mathbb{Q}\), \(k = 1, \dots, t\), \(j = 1, \dots, n\), \(m = n + 1\); \(\omega\), \(\omega_1, \dots, \omega_t\) are numbers different from zero and are elements of some imaginary quadratic field \(\mathbb{I}\); \(\lambda \in \mathbb{I} \backslash \mathbb{Q}\), \(\alpha \cdot \beta \in \mathbb{Q}\); \((x + \alpha) (x + \beta) b(x) b_k (x) \neq 0\); \(\alpha - \beta_j\), \(\alpha - \beta \notin \mathbb{Z}\). The author considers the following hypergeometric functions \[ \begin{aligned} \psi_k (x) & = \sum^\infty_{\nu = 0} z^\nu \omega^\nu_k \prod^\nu_{x = 1} {1 \over (x + \lambda) b_k (x)} , \quad k = 1, \dots, t \\ \psi (x) & = \sum^\infty_{\nu = 0} z^\nu \omega^\nu \prod^\nu_{x = 1} {x + \alpha \over (x + \lambda) b(x) (x + \beta)} , \end{aligned} \] and gives the lower bounds of the linear forms \(h_0 + \sum^t_{k = 1} \sum^m_{j = 1} h_{kj} \psi_k^{(j - 1)} (1) + \sum^{m + 1}_{\ell = 1} h_\ell \psi^{(\ell - 1)} (1)\) and \(h_0 + \sum^{m + 1}_{\ell = 1} h_\ell \psi^{(\ell - 1)} (1)\).
