UPDATE ON THE LOAN FACILITY AGREEMENTS

London, 29 November 2016 - Further to the Company's announcement on 28 September 2016, on the agreement between the Company and Bank VTB PJSC ('VTB') to amend the terms of the loan facility agreements, the Company provides the following update to the market.

On 28 November 2016 the Company and VTB have executed additional addenda to the Krown Investments LLC ('Krown') and Bellgate Constructions Limited ('Bellgate') loan facility agreements providing for a 30 day extension to the deadline for execution of the outstanding security documents (which had to be executed within 60 days from the execution date of the initial amending agreements), under both loan facility packages. The Company and VTB have also entered into technical addenda to the existing share pledge, surety and mortgage agreements.

The extension is related to the significant amount of legal work required for preparation of the new agreements by VTB. The Company expects all outstanding documents to be executed by the new deadline.

The pledges over the equipment used to operate the Kossinskaya project shall be part of the Kossinskaya mortgage and secondary ranking mortgage agreements and shall not be executed as separate agreements.

The Company will update the market when the outstanding security agreements are executed.
