OAO Russneft restructuring-clarification
Glencore plc refers to the Russian channel 24 television interview on 11 March 2015 with Mikhail
Gutseriev, Chairman of Russneft. In this interview Mr Gutseriev referred to an agreement to issue shares
in Russneft to Glencore.
The Glencore group holds large minority interests in production subsidiaries of Russneft. Glencore
confirms that it has agreed to a share exchange whereby Glencore would exchange these minority
interests for a 49% shareholding in Russneft's holding company.
Completion of this share-for-share exchange remains outstanding.
Also, contrary to certain media reports, no conversion has taken place of any of Russneft’s outstanding
loan commitments to Glencore.
