Notes:

  1. The service fee is calculated by multiplying the weight of cargos, tariff for transportation (subject to state regulation) and the distance (being 58 kilometres).
  2. The basis of calculation is determined by the demand schedules for transportation services: the estimated demand is 10,860 tons and the distance is 58 kilometres.
  3. The basis of calculation is determined by the price for the services: shunting work of the locomotive - up to USD32.29/hour, and the delivery of goods in cars - up to USD0.48/ton.
  4. The basis of calculation is determined by the price for planned services (between USD8 to USD41 per machine hour).
  5. The basis of calculation is determined by the price for planned services (between USD14 to USD36 per machine hour).

The consideration under the New Transportation Contracts is to be paid in cash via bank transfer or by off-setting reciprocal obligations.

THE ANNUAL AGGREGATE TRANSACTION AMOUNT

Pursuant to Rule 14A.81 of the Listing Rules, the continuing connected transactions contemplated under the New Transportation Contracts and the Previously Disclosed Transportation Contracts should be aggregated for the financial year ending 31 December 2020 as they were entered into by members of the Group with associates of En+, and the subject matter of each contract relates to the provision of transportation services by the associates of En+ to the Group.

The annual aggregate transaction amounts that are payable by the Group to the associates of En+ under the New Transportation Contracts and the Previously Disclosed Transportation Contracts for the financial year ending 31 December 2020 is estimated to be approximately USD20.467 million.

For the contracts stated in items 1 and 2 of the table above, as OVE owns the only railway track section which is required for the transportation services, the relevant New Transportation Contracts were entered into. For the contracts stated in items 3 to 5 of the table above, in accordance with the Company's procurement policies and using tools such as the Company's procurement portal, an open competitive selection was held by publishing an invitation to participate in the selection on the Company's website. For the contract stated in item 3, the service provider was the only one who offered services and the Company entered into the New Transportation Contract with the service provider. For the contracts stated in items 4 and 5, the Company's procurement managers, in line with the best-in-class experience and know-how of the

− 3 −

Company's procurement policies, with approval from the Company's bidding committee chose the contractor offering the best terms and conditions (the contractor offered the lowest price and was able to provide all necessary services) and then entered into the contract with the chosen contractor.

The contract price of the New Transportation Contracts has been arrived at after arm's length negotiation with reference to the market price and on terms no less favourable than those prevailing in the Russian market for transportation services of the same type and quality and those offered by the associate of En+ to independent third parties. The annual aggregate transaction amount is derived from the total contract price under the New Transportation Contracts, which was based on the need of transportation services by the Group for the relevant year.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTIONS

The New Transportation Contracts were entered into for the purpose of transportation. The Company considers that the transactions contemplated under the New Transportation Contracts are for the benefit of the Company, as the services provided are required in the production process of the Group and the service provider is capable of meeting the Group's transportation needs.

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the New Transportation Contracts are on normal commercial terms which are fair and reasonable and the transactions contemplated under the New Transportation Contracts are in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

None of the Directors has a material interest in the transactions contemplated under the New Transportation Contracts, save for Mr. Christopher Burnham and Mr. Nick Jordan who are directors of En+, Mr. Vyacheslav Solomin, who is the chief operating officer of En+, and Mr. Vladimir Kolmogorov, who is the first deputy chief executive officer for technical policy of En+, being the holding company of each of OVE, "KraMZ" Ltd. and Limited Liability Company "KraMZ-Auto". Mr. Vladimir Kolmogorov is also the head of technical supervision of JSC EuroSibEnergo, a company which is owned by En+. Accordingly, Mr. Christopher Burnham, Mr. Nick Jordan, Mr. Vyacheslav Solomin and Mr. Vladimir Kolmogorov did not vote on the Board resolution approving the New Transportation Contracts.

The consideration under the New Heat Supply Contracts will be settled in cash via bank transfer or by off-setting reciprocal obligations.

THE ANNUAL AGGREGATE TRANSACTION AMOUNT

Pursuant to Rule 14A.81 of the Listing Rules, the continuing connected transactions contemplated under the New Heat Supply Contracts and the Previously Disclosed Heat Supply Contracts should be aggregated, as they were entered into by members of the Group with associates of En+, and the subject matter of each contract relates to the heat supply by the associates of En+ to the Group.

The annual aggregate transaction amount that is payable by the Group to the associates of En+ under the New Heat Supply Contracts and the Previously Disclosed Heat Supply Contracts for each of the financial years ending 31 December 2020, 31 December 2021 and 31 December 2022 are estimated to be approximately USD9.688 million, USD0.124 million and USD0.131 million respectively.

Regarding contract numbers 1, 3 and 4 in the table above, Baykalenergo JSC is a monopolist in the transport of heat and has the necessary licenses and permits to render the relevant services, therefore the relevant New Heat Supply Contracts were entered into. Regarding contract number 2 in the table above, Khakass Municipal Systems LLC is a monopolist in the city of Sayanogorsk in the supply of thermal energy and the rates are regulated by the State Committee on tariffs and energy of the Republic of Khakassia, therefore the relevant New Heat Supply Contract was entered into.

The contract price of the New Heat Supply Contracts has been arrived with reference to the market price and on terms no less favourable than those prevailing in the Russian market for the heat of the same type and quality and those offered by the associates of En+ to independent third parties. The annual aggregate transaction amount is derived from the total contract price under the New Heat Supply Contracts and the Previously Disclosed Heat Supply Contracts, which was based on the need of heat by the Group for the year.

REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE TRANSACTIONS

The New Heat Supply Contracts have been entered into for the purpose of obtaining heat for the Group's production process and for its facilities. The Company considers that the transactions contemplated under the New Heat Supply Contracts are for the benefit of the Company as there is no alternative supplier available in the region.

− 7 −

The Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the New Heat Supply Contracts are on normal commercial terms which are fair and reasonable and the transactions contemplated under the New Heat Supply Contracts are in the ordinary and usual course of business of the Group and in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

None of the Directors has a material interest in the transactions contemplated under the New Heat Supply Contracts, save for Mr. Christopher Burnham and Mr. Nick Jordan who are directors of En+, Mr. Vyacheslav Solomin, who is the chief operating officer of En+, and Mr. Vladimir Kolmogorov, who is the first deputy chief executive officer for technical policy of En+, being the holding company of each of Baykalenergo JSC and Khakass Municipal Systems LLC. Mr. Vladimir Kolmogorov is also the head of technical supervision of JSC EuroSibEnergo, a company which is owned by En+. Accordingly, Mr. Christopher Burnham, Mr. Nick Jordan, Mr. Vyacheslav Solomin and Mr. Vladimir Kolmogorov did not vote on the Board resolution approving the New Heat Supply Contracts.

LISTING RULES IMPLICATIONS

The ultimate beneficial owner of each of Baykalenergo JSC and Khakass Municipal Systems LLC is En+, which holds more than 90% of the issued share capital of those entities.

Each of Baykalenergo JSC and Khakass Municipal Systems LLC is held by En+ (being a substantial shareholder of the Company) as to more than 30% of the issued share capital and is therefore an associate of En+, which in turn is a substantial shareholder of the Company. Accordingly, each of Baykalenergo JSC and Khakass Municipal Systems LLC is a connected person of the Company under the Listing Rules. The transactions contemplated under the New Heat Supply Contracts therefore constitute continuing connected transactions of the Company.

THE ANNUAL AGGREGATE TRANSACTION AMOUNT

The contract price payable under the New Repair Services Contracts has been determined with reference to the market price and on terms no less favourable than those prevailing in the Russian market for repair services of the same type and quality and those offered by the associates of En+ to independent third parties.

Based on the terms of the New Repair Services Contracts and the Previously Disclosed Repair Services Contracts, the annual aggregate transaction amount that is payable by the Group to the associates of En+ for the financial year ended 31 December 2020 is estimated to be approximately USD11.116 million.

For the contracts stated in items 1 to 4 of the table above, in accordance with the Company's procurement policies and using tools such as the Company's procurement portal, the Company invited several organizations to take part in the tender in relation to the required repair services. The Company's procurement managers, in line with the best-in-class experience and know-how of the Company's procurement policies, with approval from the Company's bidding committee chose the contractor offering the best terms and conditions (the contractor offered the lowest price, is currently carrying out similar works and has the relevant experience) and then entered into the contract with the chosen contractor. For the contract stated in item 2 of the table above, as JSC "IENC" is the only contractor with the necessary qualifications and access to service overhead lines in the territory of the Irkutsk region, the relevant New Repair Services Contract was entered into.

The annual aggregate transaction amount by the Group is estimated by the Directors based on the amount of repair services to be received and the contract price.
