vii FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some statements in this Prospectus as well as written and oral statements the Bank or its representatives make from time to time in reports, filings, news releases, conferences, teleconferences, web postings or otherwise, may be deemed to be “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning the Bank’s plans, objectives, goals, strategies and future operations and performance and the assumptions underlying these forward-looking statements. The Bank uses the words such as “anticipates”, “estimates”, “expects”, “believes”, “intends”, “plan”, “may”, “will”, “should” and any similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are contained in “Summary of the Offering”, “Risk Factors”, “Business”, Appendix A to this Prospectus entitled “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation” and other sections of this Prospectus. The Bank has based these forward-looking statements on the current view of its management with respect to future events and financial performance. These views reflect the best judgment of the Bank’s management but involve uncertainties and are subject to certain risks the occurrence of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted in the Bank’s forward-looking statements and from past results, performance or achievements. Although the Bank believes that the estimates and the projections reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable, if one or more of the risks or uncertainties materialise or occur, including those which the Bank has identified in this Prospectus, or if any of the Bank’s underlying assumptions prove to be incomplete or incorrect, the Bank’s actual results of operations may vary from those expected, estimated or projected.

These forward-looking statements speak only as at the date of this Prospectus. The Bank is not obliged to, and does not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements made in this Prospectus whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Bank, or persons acting on the Bank’s behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained throughout this Prospectus. As a result of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, a prospective investor in the Notes should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

By their very nature, forward looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, and risks exist that the predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward looking statements will not be achieved. Prospective investors should be aware that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward looking statements. These factors include:

• fluctuations in inflation, interest rate, exchange rate and other economic conditions in the Russian Federation;

• the Bank’s ability to refinance its indebtedness on reasonable terms or at all;

• the Bank’s ability to maintain its collection rate on overdue loans;

• prices for securities issued by Russian entities;

• the health of the Russian economy, including the Russian banking sector;

• the Bank’s ability to maintain its liquidity levels;

• the effects of, and changes in, the policy of the Government and regulations promulgated by the CBR;

• the effects of competition in the geographic and business areas in which the Group conducts its operations;

• the effects of changes in laws, regulations, taxation or accounting standards or practices in the jurisdictions where the Group conducts its operations;

• the Bank’s or the Group’s ability to maintain market share for its products and services and control expenses;

viii • acquisitions or divestitures;

• technological changes;

• the Banks or the Group’s success at managing the risks associated with the aforementioned factors; and

• international influence/liquidity.

This list of important factors is not exhaustive. When relying on forward looking statements, prospective investors should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and events, especially in light of the political, economic, social and legal environment in which the Bank and the Group operate. Such forward looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. Accordingly, the Bank and the Group do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any of them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The Bank and the Group do not make any representation, warranty or prediction that the results anticipated by such forward-looking statements will be achieved, and such forward looking statements represent, in each case, only one of many possible scenarios and should not be viewed as the most likely or standard scenario.

ix ENFORCEABILITY OF JUDGMENTS IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

The Bank is an open joint stock company incorporated under the laws of the Russian Federation and most of its assets and the assets of its subsidiaries and associates are currently located in the Russian Federation. In addition, as at the date of this Prospectus, many of the Bank’s directors and executive officers are residents of the Russian Federation. As a result, it may not be possible for Noteholders to:

• effect service of process within the United Kingdom or the United States upon any of the Bank’s directors or executive officers who are resident in the Russian Federation; or

• enforce against the Bank or any such persons judgments obtained in English or U.S. courts.

Foreign court judgments may be recognised and enforced by Russian courts only if (i) an international treaty providing for the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil cases exists between the Russian Federation and the country where the judgment is rendered, and/or (ii) a federal law of Russia provides for the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments.

No such treaty for the reciprocal enforcement of foreign court judgments in civil and commercial matters exists between the Russian Federation and most Western jurisdictions (including Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States), which may require new proceedings to be brought in the Russian Federation in respect of a judgment already obtained in any such jurisdiction against the Bank or its directors or executive officers. However, most recent case law suggests that recognition and enforcement may be possible even in the absence of an international treaty, bilateral or multilateral, on the grounds of international comity and reciprocity. It is not clear to what extent this case law can be applicable to the enforcement of Swiss, English or U.S. court judgments. In addition, Russian courts have limited experience in the enforcement of foreign court judgments. The limitations described above, including the general statutory grounds set out in Russian legislation for the refusal to recognise and enforce foreign court judgments in the Russian Federation, may significantly delay the enforcement of any such judgment, or completely deprive the plaintiff of effective legal recourse.

In September 2002, the new Arbitrazh Procedural Code of the Russian Federation entered into force, setting forth procedures for the recognition and enforcement of judgments and grounds for refusal of such recognition and enforcement in the event that such a treaty or federal law were adopted. However, Russian procedural law may change further, and other grounds for refusal of the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments could arise in the future. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Russian Federation and the City of Moscow – Foreign judgments and arbitral awards may not be recognised in the Russian Federation”.

The Loan Agreement will be governed by English law and will provide that all disputes, controversies and causes of action brought by any party thereto may be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (the “LCIA”) although the Issuer has the right to have disputes settled in the courts of England. The Russian Federation is a party to the United Nations (New York) Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (the “New York Convention”). However, it may be difficult to enforce arbitral awards in the Russian Federation due to:

• the inexperience of the Russian courts in international commercial transactions;

• official and unofficial political resistance to the enforcement of awards against Russian companies in favour of foreign investors;

• the inability of Russian courts to enforce such awards; and

• corruption.

In practice, reliance upon international treaties may meet with resistance or a lack of understanding on the part of a Russian court or other officials, thereby introducing delay and unpredictability to the process of enforcing any foreign court judgment or arbitral award in the Russian Federation. The possible need to

x re-litigate a judgment obtained in a foreign court on the merits may also significantly delay the enforcement of such judgment in the Russian Federation. Under Russian law, certain amounts may be payable by the claimant upon the initiation of any action or proceeding in any Russian court. These amounts in many instances depend on the amount of the relevant claim.

Furthermore, any arbitral award pursuant to arbitration proceedings in accordance with the Rules of the LCIA and the application of English law to the Loan Agreement may be limited by the mandatory provisions of Russian laws relating to the exclusive jurisdiction of Russian courts and the application of Russian laws with respect to bankruptcy, winding-up or liquidation of Russian companies and credit organisations in particular. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Russian Federation and the City of Moscow – Foreign judgments and arbitral awards may not be recognised in the Russian Federation”.

Average Balances, Average Interest Rates and Effective Interest Rates This Prospectus includes information on the average balances of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities of the Group as at and for the years ended 31 December 2009, 2007 and 2008 as well as the average rate of interest income or expense for such assets and liabilities. Unless otherwise expressly stated, the consolidated average balances of assets and liabilities presented in this Prospectus represent the average of the opening and closing balances for the applicable period. These average balances would likely be different if alternative or more frequent averaging methods were used and such differences could be material.

The average interest rates disclosed in this Prospectus are calculated by dividing aggregate interest income or expense for the relevant line item by the average balance for the same item for the applicable period. Average interest rates are distinct from the effective interest rates presented in the consolidated financial statements of the Group. The effective interest method is a method of allocating interest income or interest expense over the relevant period so as to achieve a constant periodic rate of interest (effective interest rate) on the carrying amount. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (excluding future credit losses) through the expected life of the financial instrument. The effective interest rate discounts cash flows of variable interest instruments to the next interest re-pricing date except for the premium or discount which reflects the credit spread over the floating rate specified in the instrument, or other variables that are not reset to market rates. Such premiums or discounts are amortised over the entire expected life of the instrument. The present value calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. See “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the 2009 Financial Statements.

The Bank presents information on effective interest rates because IFRS requires that this rate be used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Operationally, the Bank uses this information as well as average interest rates as both are considered useful business tools.

1 Russian Federation from St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad in the North West to Vladivostok and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in the Russian Far East. The regional presence of the Group is enhanced through co-operation with local banks, such as OAO AKB “Zarechye” (Kazan, Republic of Tatarstan), in which the Group holds a minority interest. See also “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Overview – Principal Activities”.

In addition, the Group owns controlling stakes in seven banks, five of them foreign: Open Joint Stock Company Commercial Bank “MOSVODOKANALBANK” in Moscow (65.87 per cent. owned), Bezhitsa Bank in Bryansk, Russia (100.00 per cent. owned), “Bank Moscow-Minsk” in Minsk, Republic of Belarus (100.00 per cent. owned), AS “Latvijas Biznesa banka” in Riga, Republic of Latvia (99.97 per cent. owned), AS “Eesti Krediidipank” in Tallinn, Republic of Estonia (92.00 per cent. owned), BM Bank LLC Ukraine, in Kiev, Republic of Ukraine (100.00 per cent. owned) and Bank of Moscow j.s.c. – Belgrade, in Belgrade, Republic of Serbia (100.00 per cent. owned). The Group also has correspondent accounts for approximately 101 domestic banks and maintains correspondent relationships with approximately 950 foreign banks.

The Bank is a member of the Association of Bill Market Participants (ABMP), the Forwards Section of MICEX, the Russian Trading System (RTS), the National Securities Market Participants Association (NAUFOR), the Securities Trading Section of MICEX, the Association of Russian Banks, the National Securities Association, the Moscow International Currency Association (MMVA), the National Currency Association (NVA), the Professional Association of Registrars, Transfer Agents and Depositaries (PARTAD), the Moscow Industrialists and Entrepreneurs Confederation, the Moscow Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Russian Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (Employers) Union.

Competitive Strengths The Bank believes its strong market position is attributable to a combination of the following competitive advantages:

• Strong brand recognition, enhanced through the relationship with the City of Moscow. According to Brand Finance, which recently ranked the top 500 global banking brands, in 2010 the Group’s brand ranked 182nd among the most high-valued banking brands (compared to 217th in 2009 and 252nd in 2008), and ranked 4th in Russia. The Group’s Brand Rating for 2010 according to Brand Finance is “A”, compared to “BBB” for 2009. The Bank believes that its affiliation with the City of Moscow is one of its major strengths. The City of Moscow has remained the principal shareholder of the Bank. In addition, the business that the Group derives from the City of Moscow (including deposits of funds and contracts to finance municipal works) has contributed to the Group’s strong capital base from which it has been able to finance the expansion of the Group’s business. Furthermore, the Group participates in joint projects initiated by the City of Moscow, such as the Muscovite Social Card project which the Group developed in partnership with VISA International and the City of Moscow. As a result of the relationship between the Group and the City of Moscow, the Group’s brand has a strong association with the city and positive recognition in the markets in which it operates. This in turn serves as an important marketing channel through which the Group can develop and expand both its retail and its corporate customer base.

• Strong approach to risk management and risk analysis. The Bank believes that its conservative approach to risk management as applied to all of its businesses has been a core strength of its business. In the context of the global economic crisis and the corresponding effect on the global and Russian economies, the Group’s risk management policies and procedures have permitted the Group to manage its exposure to riskier assets in such a way as to protect its business and continue to implement its core strategies.

• Strong client base. The Group has a large and diverse client base, servicing over 105,000 corporate and governmental clients and 9.7 million retail clients as at 1 May 2010. The Group lends to a wide range of industrial sectors and to a large client base of retail customers and many types of commercial and governmental entities. The Group is the third largest Russian bank in terms of the volume of retail deposits (see “–Overview” above) and, as at 31 December 2009, had a presence in 60 regions of the Russian Federation.

2 • Experienced management. The Group’s senior management team has extensive experience in the banking industry and many of them have been working together for several years. Members of senior management have had experience working in the banking sector in the Russian Federation, other CIS countries and outside the CIS. For further information on the Group’s management, see “Management”.

Business Strategy The Bank’s strategic objective is to strengthen its position among the largest Russian banks, as measured by key business indicators such as profit, return on assets, return on equity, net interest margin, market share and growth rates in core business sectors while also maintaining its stable capital and liquidity position and conservative approach to risk management. To achieve this, in April 2008, the Bank’s management approved a new three year general strategy for the Group. However, in light of the impact of the global economic crisis on the global and Russian economies, the Bank decided to review its strategic and business planning on an annual basis. This approach will take effect in respect of the financial years ending 31 December 2009 and 31 December 2010. The strategy for 2010 was adopted in late 2009 and focuses on increased business efficiency, maintaining tighter controls on costs and expenses, maintaining growth rates in line with market trends, building customer relationships and increasing cross-selling.

The Group’s key strategic goals include:

Maintaining its strong capital position and conservative approach to risk management. On 26 July 2010, the Bank completed the Fourteenth Issuance, having attracted RUB 21.7 billion, which resulted in an increase of 13.7 per cent. (RUB 2,163.2 million) in the Bank’s share capital to RUB 18.0 billion as at 1 August 2010. The Bank believes that the Fourteenth Issuance, together with the Thirteenth Issuance and with internal capital generation, will allow the Group to maintain adequate capital ratios while also growing its business. As at 31 December 2009 and calculated in accordance with the Basel Accord, the Group had a Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.8 per cent. and a total capital ratio of 18.9 per cent. compared to 9.5 per cent. and 13.9 per cent. as at 31 December 2008. The Bank believes its risk management processes are effective and that maintaining its focus on vigorous risk management is essential to maintaining its strong capital position. The Group is focused on maintaining its capital ratios and developing its risk management processes in readiness for any future changes in regulation and continued challenges in the banking business, which may result from the CBR’s further implementation of the Basel Accord, the global economic crisis and the CBR and Russian Government’s response to the economic crisis, while it also aims to support the continued growth of the Group’s assets. The Group takes a conservative approach to risk management (as to which see above “– Competitive Strengths – Strong approach to risk management and risk analysis”) particularly as regards its provisions for impairment and requirements in relation to the amount, quality and type of collateral. The Bank intends to maintain its conservative approach to risk management in 2010 and 2011. See also “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Factors affecting the Group’s results of operations and financial condition – Provisions for Impairment”.

Increasing the Group’s profitability without prejudice to its conservative risk management policies. The Bank believes that one of its primary goals is to increase its profitability by focusing on revenue diversification, market oriented policies, controlling costs, diversification of its client base and the introduction of new business lines. The growth before the global economic crisis in the domestic retail banking market, SME sector, debt market and asset management market opened new opportunities for the Group. Notwithstanding the effects of the global economic crisis and higher risks associated with these opportunities, the Bank intends to continue its focus on increasing profitability in these areas while adhering to its conservative approach to risk management. Additionally, the Bank believes that public and business confidence in certain leading Russian banks is beginning to improve again, which it believes will enable the Group to attract new corporate and retail customers while maintaining its strong existing customer base and increasing cross-selling. Having grown significantly in recent years (the Group’s total assets grew from RUB 381.96 billion as at 31 December 2006 to RUB 528.09 billion as at 31 December 2007, RUB 801.39 billion as at 31 December 2008 and RUB 825.14 billion as at 31 December 2009), the Group is focused on integrating and streamlining each area of its expanded business to achieve optimum levels of profitability and efficiency.

3 Attracting additional corporate business. The Group expects its corporate lending to continue to grow in the medium-term, with respect to both large corporates and SMEs. The Bank believes that the continued diversification of its customer base helps it to attain a more stable funding base. Although the risk of lending in the SME sector is higher than in the large corporate sector, the Bank believes that the SME sector offers strong potential for growth and that the increased risk of this sector can be managed through controls over the quality of the loan portfolio (see “Asset, Liability and Risk Management” and “– Lending Policies and Procedures”). One of the ways in which the Bank expects to grow its SME loan portfolio is through developing relationships with SMEs in the Russian regions, that previously borrowed from some of the smaller regional Russian banks which have faced difficulties in dealing with the effects of the global economic crisis and the CBR’s and Russian Government’s response to it.

Attracting additional retail clients. Notwithstanding the effects of the global economic crisis, the development of the Russian retail banking market remains one of the key features of the present-day banking system in the Russian Federation and retail depositors remain a key source of funding for banks in the Russian Federation. Although the Bank expects its corporate loan portfolio to grow faster than its retail loan portfolio in the short-to-medium-term, the Group is seeking to increase the number of retail customers, including through the following initiatives:

• Expanding its retail deposit portfolio. A number of Russian banks experienced an outflow in retail deposits at the start of the global economic crisis. As the situation has stabilised, retail deposits are starting to grow again. As at 1 January 2010 the Group was the third largest Russian bank in terms of the volume of retail deposits taken according to Kommersant Dengi, and, as at 31 December 2009, the Group had 9.7 million retail customers and RUB 177.5 billion of term deposits and current accounts, compared to 9.6 million and RUB 151.2 billion as at 31 December 2008. The Group benefits from having traditionally viewed retail deposits as an important source of funding and therefore it already has a large retail client base and substantial retail deposits. As the real income of the Russian population has gradually increased, the Russian retail deposit market has also increased and the Group continues to seek to increase its market share of retail deposits and to further capitalise on this growing demand for retail deposit services.

• Leveraging its relationship with the City of Moscow. The Group’s relationship with the City of Moscow has helped to ensure that the Group has a well recognised brand, not just in Moscow but also across the Russian regions. The Group continues to develop its relationship with the City of Moscow to attract more retail deposits, for example, by participating in the Muscovite Social Card project (as to which, see “– Competitive Strengths – Strong brand recognition, enhanced through the relationship with the City of Moscow”). For a discussion of the Group’s relationship with the City of Moscow, see also “Risk Factors – Risks Relating to the Group’s Business and Industry – The Group may lose some or all of the City of Moscow’s business” and “– Banking Services and Activities – Corporate Banking – The City of Moscow”.)

• Enhancing private banking services. While the real income (as a general indicator of the standard of living) of the Russian population declined during the financial crisis in the wake of job cuts and pay cuts, the Bank now sees good potential for growth in the private banking sector as the situation stabilises, and that such stabilised environment will provide a platform for it to learn from its customer behaviour patterns and selectively develop its range of customer-tailored products for wealthy individual customers.

• Enhancing its retail lending product range. Since 2002, the real income of the Russian population has grown, and this increase has created significant demand for consumer finance products such as personal loans, mortgages, automobile loans and credit cards. While the retail market in the Russian banking sector has stagnated during the global economic crisis to date, the Group’s aim is to capitalise on opportunities in this sector as this market returns.

4 45.8 per cent. of the Group’s aggregate loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009, compared with 46.1 per cent. as at 31 December 2008, is assisted by its affiliation with the City of Moscow. However, in addition, the Group aims to leverage its franchise and brand in growing its business in all regions of the Russian Federation. For example, the Group aims to expand its SME loan portfolio by establishing relationships with SMEs that formerly borrowed from smaller regional Russian banks which have been adversely affected by the global economic crisis and the additional regulatory controls on Russian banks.

Credit Ratings On 4 February 2009 and in the context of the growing global economic crisis and its impact on the Russian economy, Fitch Ratings Ltd. (“Fitch”) downgraded the Bank’s long term foreign currency and local currency issuer default ratings (“IDR”) from BBB+ to BBB, and the short-term IDR from F2 to F3. The outlook for the long-term rating was assigned as “Negative”. Concurrently, the long-term IDR of 14 Russian banks, including the Bank, were downgraded. Long-term foreign currency IDR of the Bank was set at BBB-, with outlook negative.

On 24 February 2009, Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) downgraded long-term local currency deposit ratings, and foreign currency and local currency debt ratings of nine Russian credit organisations with state interest, including the Bank, to Russia’s country ceiling of A2. Moody’s confirmed the Bank’s long-term foreign currency deposit rating at Baa1, short-term foreign currency deposit rating at P-2 and bank financial strength rating at D, with negative outlook for all ratings.

On 26 January 2010, Fitch revised the Bank’s rating Outlook to “stable” from “negative” while affirming the Bank’s ratings, including its long-term foreign currency IDR at BBB-. This Outlook revision followed the revision on 25 January 2010 of the City of Moscow’s Outlook to “stable” from “negative”. The change to the Outlook for the City of Moscow itself followed the revision on 22 January 2010 of Russia’s sovereign rating Outlook to “stable” from “negative”.

Certain Covenants: The Loan Agreement will, among other things, restrict, with certain exceptions, the ability of the Bank and its subsidiaries to: (a) create or incur liens which secure certain indebtedness; and

Rating: The Notes are expected to be assigned upon issue a rating of “BBB-” by Fitch and “Baa1” by Moody’s. Credit ratings assigned to the Notes do not necessarily mean that they are a suitable investment. A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision, suspension or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organisation. Similar ratings on different types of notes do not necessarily mean the same thing. The ratings do not address the likelihood that the principal of the Notes will be prepaid, paid on an expected final payment date or paid on any particular date before the legal final maturity date of the Notes. The ratings do not address the marketability of the Notes or any market price. Any change in the credit ratings of the Notes or the Bank could adversely affect the price that a subsequent purchaser will be willing to pay for the Notes. The significance of each rating should be analysed independently from any other rating. Withholding Tax: All payments of principal and interest under the Loan and in respect of the Notes will be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of all taxes, duties, imposts, assessments or governmental charges of Ireland or the Russian Federation save as required by law. If any taxes, duties, levies, imposts, assessments or governmental charges are payable in any of the above jurisdictions, the sum payable by the Bank will (subject to certain exceptions) be required to be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that the Issuer receives and retains (net of tax) a net sum which it would have received and retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made. The sole obligation of the Issuer in this respect will be to pay to the Noteholders and Couponholders (as defined in “Terms and Conditions of the Notes”) sums equivalent to the sums received and retained (net of tax) from the Bank for this purpose.

The Bank will be obliged to make payments under the Loan to the Issuer’s account in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. The Issuer will agree in the Trust Deed not to agree to any amendments to, or any modification or waiver of, or authorise any breach or proposed breach of, the terms of the Loan Agreement unless the Trustee has given its prior written consent or unless authorised to do so by an Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Trust Deed) or Written Resolution (as defined in the Trust Deed) of the Noteholders (except in relation to Reserved Rights).

The Issuer will further agree to act at all times in accordance with the instructions of the Trustee from time to time with respect to the Loan Agreement, other than as provided in the Trust Deed and except in relation to Reserved Rights. Any amendments, modifications, waivers or authorisations made with the Trustee’s consent shall be notified to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 (Notices) of the Terms and

10 Conditions of the Notes and shall be binding on the Noteholders. The Issuer will also agree in the Agency Agreement to require that all payments to be made by the Bank under the Loan Agreement be directed to the Issuer’s account with the Swiss Principal Paying Agent. Formal notice of the security interests created by the Trust Deed will be given to the Bank, which will be required to acknowledge the same. The Issuer does not intend to provide post-issuance transaction information regarding the Notes or the performance of the Loan.

In the event that the Trustee enforces the security interests granted to it, the Trustee will assume certain rights and obligations towards the Noteholders, as more fully set out in the Trust Deed.

Payments in respect of the Notes will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of Russian or Irish taxes, except as required by law. See “Terms and Conditions of the Notes—Taxation”. In the event that any deduction or withholding is required by law, the Issuer will be required, except in certain limited circumstances, to pay additional amounts to the extent that it receives corresponding amounts from the Bank under the Loan Agreement. In addition, payments under the Loan Agreement shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of Russian or Irish taxes, except as required by law. In the event that any deduction or withholding is required by law with respect to payments under the Notes or the Loan Agreement, the Bank will be obliged, except in certain limited circumstances, to increase the amounts payable under the Loan Agreement, by an amount equivalent to the required tax payment. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Loan, the Notes and the Trading Market — Interest payments on the Loan may be subject to withholding tax or other taxes, — Tax might be withheld on dispositions of the Notes in the Russian Federation, reducing their value, and — The Notes may be redeemed early if withholding tax becomes payable or the Issuer incurs certain increased costs or it becomes unlawful to allow the Loan or the Notes to remain outstanding”.

In certain circumstances, the Loan may be prepaid at its principal amount, together with accrued interest, at the Bank’s option, upon the Bank being required to increase the amount payable or to pay additional amounts on account of Russian or Irish taxes under the Loan Agreement or required to pay additional amounts on account of certain costs incurred by the Issuer. The Issuer may, in its own discretion, require the Loan to be prepaid if it becomes unlawful for the Loan or the Notes to remain outstanding, as set out in the Loan Agreement.

The Issuer will have no other financial obligations under the Notes and no other assets of the Issuer will be available to Noteholders. Accordingly, all payments to be made by the Issuer under the Notes will be made only from and to the extent of such sums received or recovered and retained (net of tax) by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Trustee from the assets securing the Notes. Noteholders shall look solely to such sums for payments to be made by the Issuer under the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer to make payments in respect of the Notes will be limited to such sums and Noteholders will have no further recourse to the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s other assets in respect thereof. In the event that the amount due and payable by the Issuer under such notes exceeds the sums so received or recovered and retained (net of tax), the right of any person to claim payment of any amount exceeding such sums shall be extinguished, and Noteholders may take no further action to recover such amounts.

Neither the Loan nor the Notes have been guaranteed by the City of Moscow or any other shareholder of the Bank.

11 RISK FACTORS

RISK FACTORS Prospective investors should consider carefully, among other things, the risks set forth below and other information contained in this Prospectus prior to making any investment decision with respect to the Notes. The Group notes that in a number of situations, which it cannot always control, these risks may materialise and may negatively affect the Group’s ability to comply with its payment obligations under the Loan Agreement and, as a result, the debt service by the Issuer on the Notes. These risk factors, individually or together, could have a material adverse effect on the Group, the Issuer and/or their respective businesses, operations and financial conditions and/or the rights under the Notes of the holders of the Notes. In addition, the value of the Notes could decline due to any of these risks, and investors may lose some or all of their investment.

Prospective investors should note that the risks described below are not the only risks each of the Group or the Issuer, as the case may be, faces. There may be additional risks of which the Group or the Issuer is not currently aware, and any of these risks could have a negative effect on the Group’s ability to comply with its payment obligations under the Loan Agreement or the debt service by the Issuer on the Notes. Prospective investors are urged to consult with their own legal, financial and tax advisors before making an investment in the Notes.

Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry

Turmoil in global credit markets has already adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the Russian economy, the Russian banking industry in general and the Group in particular Historically, the Russian economy has been adversely affected by market downturns and economic slowdowns elsewhere in the world, including the global economic crisis (which began with the sub-prime mortgage crisis in the United States and developed into a global economic crisis in 2008 (the “global economic crisis”)). The global economic crisis has had a material adverse effect on the Russian economy and reduced foreign investment in the Russian Federation. In February 2009, in large part due to the impact of the global economic crisis on the Russian economy, Fitch downgraded its long term sovereign rating for the Russian Federation from “BBB+” to “BBB” and downgraded Russia’s country ceiling rating to “BBB+” from “A.” On 22 January 2010, Fitch raised the Russian Federation’s ratings outlook to “stable” from “negative”. On 8 December 2008, Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, a division of McGraw Hill Companies Inc. (“Standard & Poor’s”) downgraded its foreign currency sovereign credit rating on the Russian Federation from “BBB+/A 2” to “BBB/A 3”, stating that the lowering of the ratings of the Russian Federation reflects risks associated with the sharp reversal in external portfolio and other investment flows, which increased the cost and difficulty of meeting the country’s external financing needs. For a more detailed description of the impact of the global economic crisis on the Russian economy and the business activities of the Group, see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Factors Affecting the Group’s Results of Operations and Financial Condition – The Russian Federation’s Economic Condition.” As the Russian Federation produces and exports large volumes of oil and gas and other commodities (such as steel), the dramatic falls in the global prices of these commodities in the summer of 2008 resulted in sharp decreases in the revenues of the Russian federal budget and of Russian companies operating in these sectors, which, in turn, had a significant adverse impact on the Russian economy. While oil prices recovered to a degree in 2009, they still remain well below the levels reached in 2008. In addition, according to the Federal State Statistics Service (“Rosstat”) oil extraction in the Russian Federation declined by approximately 0.7 per cent. in 2008 and although it increased by 1.3 per cent. in 2009, there can be no assurance that production will remain at current levels. In the year ended 31 December 2009, according to Rosstat, the Russian Federation’s real GDP showed a 7.9 per cent. decline compared to an increase of 5.6 per cent. in 2008 and 8.1 per cent. in 2007. According to the CBR, the Russian Federation’s foreign currency reserves fell from a peak of USD 598.10 billion in August 2008 to USD 383.7 billion in May 2009, although they recovered to USD 475.3 billion by August 2010. Rosstats’ figures for 2009 also show industrial production and exports declining by 9.3 per cent. and 35.7 per cent. respectively, and unemployment increasing by 48.9 per cent.

12 During the first quarter of 2010, according to Rosstat, industrial production grew by 5.8 per cent. as compared to the same period in 2009. According to Rosstat, exports in the first quarter of 2010 had increased by 61.1 per cent., compared to the same period in 2009. Russian Ministry of Economic Development estimates that the Russian Federation’s real GDP will grow by not less than 4 per cent. in 2010.

During the global economic crisis there were periodic suspensions of trading at the Russian stock market, extreme volatility in the Russian securities markets and sharp fluctuations in the share prices of Russian financial institutions. As of October 2008, the RTS stock index had declined by over 70 per cent. from its highest levels reached in May 2008 and the IFS-Cbonds bond index had declined by approximately 13.8 per cent. from its highest levels reached in June 2008. However, by the end of July 2010, the RTS stock index and the IFX-Cbonds bond index had recovered by 200.4 per cent. and 47.0 per cent. respectively, from their lowest levels.

The disruptions in the global markets have had a severe impact on the liquidity of Russian banks and other financial institutions, and have significantly affected the financial markets by reducing the availability of liquidity and increasing the cost of funding in the Russian Federation. Russian banks, including the Group, have experienced a reduction in the availability of funding at an affordable price from the debt markets.

The majority of the Group’s profit is generated in the Russian Federation and, therefore, the Group is particularly exposed to the economic conditions of the Russian Federation.

The recent deterioration of economic conditions in the Russian Federation in general and the decline in growth rate of the Russian banking sector in particular, have had and may continue to have an adverse effect on the Group’s results of operations and could continue to have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Continued uncertainty in the international financial markets and any deterioration in credit conditions could adversely impact the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Group due to:

• decreases in the Group’s net interest income;

• decreases in the demand for the Group’s credit products;

• assets or collateral impairment, significantly increased number of overdue loans and loan provision impairment amounts;

• decreases in the business activity of Russian companies and the credit-worthiness of Russian companies and individuals;

• increases in borrowing costs and reduced access of the Group to capital markets;

• constrained liquidity that limits the ability of the Group to grow its business;

• decreases in fee and commission income due to slowing of capital markets activity; and

• rising cost base due to high inflation.

The Group believes that its funding from customer deposits, together with its other funding sources, its credit standing and its liquidity risk management policy allow it to meet its liquidity needs. Nevertheless, a decrease in the Group’s ability to rely on its customer deposits as a source of funding or maturity mismatches between the Group’s assets and liabilities, may have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects of the Group.

The global economic crisis may lead to a further deterioration of the Group’s loan portfolio The Group is subject to risks regarding the credit quality of, and the recovery on loans to and amounts due from, customers and market counterparties, which are affected by general economic conditions.

Changes in the credit quality of the Group’s customers and counterparties, or in their behaviour, or arising from systemic risks in the Russian and global financial system, could negatively affect the value of the Group’s assets. Such changes have led to increased volumes of non-performing loans and, significantly

13 increased provisions for loan impairment within the Group. Various factors, including increased unemployment, reduced corporate liquidity and an increase in the number of corporate insolvencies and individual bankruptcies in the Russian Federation could reduce the ability of the Group’s customers and counterparties to repay loans. In addition, changes in economic conditions might result in the deterioration in the value of collateral and increase the risk of loss in the event of counterparty default, which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. Although in April 2010, Sergey Ignatiev, Chairman of the CBR pointed to the stabilisation in the banking sector, supported by the availability of liquidity and the slow-down in the growth of non-performing loans, there is no guarantee that this stabilisation will continue. Any further instability and negative trends could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Group’s provision for impairment of loans to customers increased to RUB 43,305.6 million or 7.49 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009, compared with RUB 12,889.6 million, or 2.43 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2008, and RUB 4,525.1 million, or 1.27 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2007. The proportion of the Group’s gross loan portfolio that was over 90 days overdue as at 31 December 2009 was approximately 3.9 per cent., compared to 1.3 per cent. and 0.7 per cent., respectively, for the years ended 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Provisions for Impairment.” While the Group has adapted its risk management strategies in the light of the global economic crisis, this has not protected it from substantially increased levels of non-performing loans in its portfolio, although the level is lower than the market average based on its analysis of CBR statistics. For more information, see “Risk Management – Loan Portfolio – Provisions for Impairment.” If the amount of the Group’s overdue loans were to continue to increase significantly, whether or not the Group is required to increase its reserves in response to any such increase, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operation and/or prospects.

Russian Government measures of support of financial markets may be insufficient As early as October 2008, the CBR took action to improve liquidity in the Russian banking sector by, for example, temporarily reducing the mandatory reserve requirements for Russian banks. Beginning in October 2008, the Russian Government, acting through State Corporation “Bank for Development and Foreign Economic Affairs (“Vnesheconombank”), and the CBR, announced and implemented a number of measures intended to support the liquidity and solvency of Russian banks and to increase the availability of credit to businesses. These measures have been seen as critical for restoring investor confidence and supporting medium-term economic growth in the Russian economy. For a description of these measures, see “Overview of the Russian Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation – Measures to support the liquidity of the Russian banking system”.

If, despite such measures, the Group’s liquidity position deteriorates or it is not able to obtain funding to run its business and satisfy its liabilities as they fall due, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Instability of the Russian and international banking sector, including a deterioration of the soundness or the perceived soundness of other financial institutions, may adversely affect the Group’s operations In 2008, as a result of the negative impact of the global economic crisis on the Russian banking sector, Moody’s changed its outlook on the Russian banking sector from “stable” to “negative” in the third quarter of 2008. Although the Group, like many other Russian banks, experienced some deposit withdrawals at that time and in the autumn of 2008 with the onset of the global economic crisis, such withdrawals did not have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business. However, no assurance can be given that the Group will not, in the event of any future disruptions, face losses, early deposit withdrawals or other pressures as a result of the insolvency of other Russian banks or their corporate customers.

Against a backdrop of limited liquidity and the higher cost of funds in the international and Russian domestic interbank lending markets, many Russian banks have been and remain subject to the risk of deterioration of

14 the soundness and/or perceived soundness of other financial institutions within and outside the Russian Federation. Financial institutions that transact with each other are interrelated as a result of trading, investment, clearing, counterparty and other relationships. This risk is sometimes referred to as “systemic risk” and may adversely affect financial intermediaries, such as clearing agencies and houses, banks, securities firms and exchanges with which the Group interacts, all of which could have an adverse effect on the Group. Although the Group’s reliance on funding from domestic and international financial institutions is quite limited and customer deposits form the main source of funding of the Group, a default by, or concerns about the stability of, one or more financial institutions (whether or not a counterparty of the Group) could also lead to further significant systemic liquidity problems, or losses or defaults by other financial institutions, which could destabilise the banking sector and cause the Group’s customers to withdraw their deposits prior to their stated maturity. This in turn could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. See “A significant part of the Group’s funding is based on deposits that can be withdrawn on demand.”

A significant part of the Group’s funding is based on deposits that can be withdrawn on demand and the Group has liquidity risks which may be further exacerbated by the instability of the global and Russian economies and banking sectors The Group has liquidity risk management procedures and analyses its deposit flows on the basis of scenario analysis and stress testing. See “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Market and Liquidity Risks – Liquidity Risk”. Nevertheless, the Group is exposed to liquidity risk as a result of possible deposit outflows linked to the global economic crisis. Historically, the Group’s principal source of funds has been customer accounts, which represented 58.0 per cent. of total liabilities as at 31 December 2009 and 55.4 per cent. of total liabilities as at 31 December 2008. As at 31 December 2009, retail customer accounts held by individuals amounted to 41.5 per cent. of total customer accounts and corporate accounts, funds of federal and regional budgets, including the City of Moscow, and funds of state-owned organisations amounted to 32.5 per cent., 15.5 per cent. and 10.5 per cent., respectively, of total customer deposits. A significant part of the Group’s funding base comprises retail customer deposits and deposits of municipal budget funds of the City of Moscow, and this source of funding is particularly important given current market conditions and the limited opportunities for market participants, including Russian borrowers such as the Group to access alternative sources of funding. See “– The Group may lose some or all of the City of Moscow’s business”. For a more detailed description of the Group’s funding from the City of Moscow, see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Overview – Affiliation with the City of Moscow” and “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Liabilities – Customer Accounts.” The Group has previously experienced periods of over-liquidity caused by sharp increases of funds deposited by the City of Moscow with the Group (which have an element of seasonality which stem from the timing of the City of Moscow’s receipt of tax payments and budget expenditure plans, although the effect of this has been reduced since 2004 after the City of Moscow adopted changes to its budgeting process) and it currently maintains a high liquidity buffer as a precaution against further deterioration in the market. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Capital Adequacy”. However, Russian companies have significant capital requirements, which have been further increased by the lack of liquidity in the financial markets as a result of the global economic crisis. These customers may withdraw their on-demand deposits from the Group immediately to satisfy any funding shortfalls and may not be in a position to replace such deposits. Further, the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (the “Civil Code”) allows retail customers to withdraw any retail deposits, including term deposits, at any time and to safeguard against such withdrawals, the Group holds liquidity reserves in excess of the regulatory minimum. The Group’s relatively high concentration of individual customer deposits renders it vulnerable to swings in retail customer confidence. Unscheduled decreases in its corporate or retail deposits may result in liquidity gaps that the Group may not be able to cover and may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

A large of part of the remainder of the Group’s funding is raised in the domestic and international capital markets, including through syndicated loans and interbank markets and the Group’s liquidity has been adversely affected by the lack of liquidity in such markets, and the significantly higher interbank lending rates.

15 The Group also remains vulnerable to fluctuations in the liquidity of its customers caused by macroeconomic and political events. Companies located in emerging markets, such as the Russian Federation, may be particularly susceptible to disruptions and reductions in the liquidity, funding or increases in financing costs. In addition, the availability of credit to entities operating within the emerging markets is significantly influenced by levels of investor confidence in such markets as a whole, and, consequently, any factors that impact market confidence (for example, a decrease in credit ratings or state or central bank intervention in one market) could affect the price or availability of funding for entities within any of these markets. Should the Group become unable to obtain alternative financing on reasonable terms, or at all, this could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Additionally, in 2008 and 2009, a portion of the Group’s funding was provided by the CBR within the framework of the CBR’s policy to provide liquidity in the Russian banking sector. This funding was more expensive than certain sources of funding that were previously available and has resulted in a different composition in the Group’s source of funding as of the date of this Prospectus. The use of more expensive funding sources or failure to achieve a commensurate increase in return on capital may expose the Group to losses and may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. In addition, if the CBR funding is withdrawn and alternative sources of funding at reasonable cost are not available, the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and liquidity position, as well as the value of the Notes, could be materially adversely affected.

The Group’s ability to generate cash and raise funding depends on many factors beyond its control, and the Group may not be able to generate the cash required to grow its business and satisfy its liabilities as they fall due The Group’s ability to satisfy its liabilities as they fall due depends on the operating and financial performance of the Group, its ability to generate cash from its business, together with its ability to access domestic and international sources of funding. This ability may be adversely affected by any failure on the part of the Group to implement successfully its business strategy, as well as general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors beyond its control. If the Group cannot generate sufficient cash or access funding to grow its business and satisfy its liabilities, the Group may, among other things, need to delay capital expenditures or sell assets, and any failure to do so would be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Substantial levels of borrower and industry concentration in the Group’s loan portfolio and customer accounts may affect its operations The borrower concentration in the Group’s loan portfolio remains high. As at 31 December 2009, the Group’s ten largest corporate borrowers accounted for 19.1 per cent. of the total loan portfolio of the Group and the 20 largest corporate borrowers accounted for 27.5 per cent. of the total loan portfolio of the Group (compared to 14.4 per cent. and 21.8 per cent. and 12.6 per cent. and 20.2 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007). If the Group loses the business of a significant borrower or if there is any significant impairment in the ability of any of the Group’s largest borrowers to service or repay their loans, which prospect has increased significantly in light of the global economic crisis, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Group’s loan portfolio also has a relatively high level of industry concentration. As at 31 December 2009, the financial services, construction, manufacturing, and trade sectors accounted for 21.8 per cent., 13.9 per cent., 12.5 per cent. and 10.9 per cent., respectively, of the Group’s loan portfolio, compared to 20.4 per cent., 13.5 per cent., 11.8 per cent. and 10.3 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2008 and 18.7 per cent., 16.0 per cent., 17.7 per cent. and 13.4 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2007. The global economic crisis has negatively affected the financial condition of the companies operating in such sectors and has resulted, among other things, in defaults on, or a need for increased provisions in respect of, the obligations of such companies to the Group. See “– The Group may not be able to accurately assess the credit risk of potential borrowers and the Group has unpredictable exposures to the credit risk of Russian corporations and individuals”.

16 The CBR imposes a limit on all Russian banks’ exposure to a single borrower or group of related borrowers of 25 per cent. of such bank’s regulatory capital, which must be monitored on a daily basis. See “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation – Regulation of the Russian banking sector – Capital adequacy”. As at the date of this Prospectus, the Group is in compliance with the CBR’s limit on exposure to a single borrower or a group of related borrowers. However, the Group’s exposure to a single borrower or a group of related borrowers could rise above this limit, either due to a change in the composition of the Group’s loan portfolio or changes in the CBR’s limit level or interpretation of how the limit should be calculated. The sanctions for failure to comply with this requirement could include fines, the temporary administration of the Group by the CBR or the revocation of the Group’s banking licence. If the Group exceeded its exposure to a single borrower or a group of related borrowers and the CBR took such steps, the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects could be materially adversely affected.

The Group may not be able to accurately assess the credit risk of potential borrowers and the Group has unpredictable exposure to the credit risk of Russian corporations and individuals Although the Group focuses on accurately assessing its credit risk, there is no assurance that the Group will always assess its risk correctly due to a number of factors, including the unpredictable nature of economic conditions in the Russian Federation. Many businesses in the Russian Federation have considerably less operating experience in competitive market conditions than their Western counterparts. Accordingly, the financial performance of Russian companies is generally more volatile, and the credit quality of Russian companies has been less predictable, than those of similar companies doing business in more mature markets and economies. If a substantial part or all of the Group’s clients were to experience poor financial performance due to a downturn in the Russian economy generally or volatility in certain sectors of the Russian economy and such performance were to negatively impact the capacity of such entities to satisfy their liabilities to the Group, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Many of the Group’s corporate and retail customers do not typically have extensive or externally verified credit histories and there are limited third-party resources available to banks to ascertain the credit history of borrowers. The system of credit bureaus in the Russian Federation is incomplete and the credit history data held by such organisations is limited. Although banks have access to credit bureau data, the Group and its competitors only share all their customer information except on a bespoke basis and there is no single credit bureau with data on every corporate entity and individual in the Russian Federation. Moreover, due to the lack of frequent and reliable information on borrowers in the Russian Federation, the Group uses statutory financial statements and public sources of information on its corporate borrowers to evaluate their financial condition and monitor credit quality. The financial statements of many of the Group’s corporate clients are not prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”) or IFRS and are not audited in accordance with Statements on Auditing Standards (“SAS”) or International Standards on Auditing (“IAS”). Even though the Group requires its clients to regularly disclose their financial information to it, such financial information may not always present a complete picture of a client’s financial condition. As a result, customers may become over-extended due to other credit obligations of which the Group is unaware and/or may complete applications for credit inaccurately or fraudulently. The Group’s failure to assess correctly the credit risk of potential borrowers, or inability to attract customers that meet the Group’s financial and credit requirements, may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

A decline in the value or illiquidity of the collateral securing the Group’s loans may materially adversely affect the Group’s corporate loan portfolio and it may be difficult for the Group to enforce collateral or other security under Russian law A substantial portion of the Group’s loans to legal entities in the Russian Federation is secured by collateral over assets such as real estate, land leasing rights, production equipment, securities, precious metals, raw materials, inventory and/or guarantees. See “Asset, Liability and Risk Management-Credit, Market and Liquidity Risks – Credit Risks” and “Lending Policies and Procedures”. Although the Group tends to take collateral in excess of the loan value and the proportion of the Group’s loan portfolio that is collateralised

17 remained stable in the years ended 31 December 2009 and 31 December 2008 at 185.9 per cent., and 187.0 per cent., respectively, compared to 174.4 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2007, continued fluctuations in the relevant markets or a further general deterioration in economic conditions in the Russian Federation may result in a decline in the value of collateral securing loans to levels below the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest on those loans. If collateral values decline, they may not be sufficient to cover uncollected amounts of the Group’s secured loans. A decline in the value of collateral securing the Group’s loans or its inability to obtain additional collateral may, in some cases, require the Group to reclassify the relevant loans, establish additional allowances for loan impairment and increase reserve requirements. For further information, see “Lending Policies and Procedures – Collateral”.

Under Russian law, security (which includes pledges and mortgages) and guarantees (other than bank guarantees) are considered secondary obligations, which automatically terminate if the underlying secured or guaranteed obligation becomes void. Foreclosure under Russian law may in certain cases require a court judgment but Russian law also provides for the possibility of realising a pledge through the sale of the assets at an auction pursuant to an out-of-court order. Upon the application of the pledgor, a court may delay such sale through a public auction for a period of up to a year. A mortgage under Russian law is a pledge over real estate, such as land and buildings, which requires state registration in order to be valid. Such state registration may be difficult to obtain, especially for real estate under construction. Russian law has no pledge perfection system for collateral other than mortgages or pledges of shares in joint stock companies, and the absence of this system may lead to unexpected and/or conflicting claims of secured creditors against the pledged property. While the Group considers that its procedures for determining credit risk are adequate, there can be no assurance that the Group will be able to enforce any security in the event of a borrower’s default or that the relevant collateral will be sufficient to cover the value of the loan secured on it.

Although in January 2009, a series of laws came into force significantly amending the rights of secured creditors under Russian law, these provisions are new and still have not been properly tested in practice. Therefore, there can be no assurance that they will in fact facilitate the enforcement by secured creditors of their security under Russian law. As a result, the Group may have difficulty foreclosing on collateral or enforcing suretyships or other third party credit support arrangements when clients default on their loans. Any failure to recover the expected value of collateral or expenditure of time and resources on a non-core asset acquired following foreclosure may expose the Group to losses, which may materially adversely affect the Group’s business, financial position, results of operations and/or prospects.

The City of Moscow may significantly influence the Group and take actions that conflict with the interests of Noteholders The City of Moscow is the Group’s largest shareholder. As at 31 December 2009, the City of Moscow directly owned 48.11 per cent. and, through OJSC “Metropolitan Insurance Group” (which in turn is controlled by the City of Moscow) together with its subsidiaries, indirectly held 15.28 per cent. of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Group. Although the City of Moscow is not closely involved in the day-to-day management of the Group, as the largest shareholder it reviews and approves the Group’s strategic and planning decisions. Out of 15 members of the Board of Directors of the Group, 7 (including the Chairman of the Board of Directors) have been nominated by the City of Moscow. As a result, the City of Moscow may exert significant influence over certain actions requiring shareholder approval, including, but not limited to, any proposed amendment to the Group’s charter, any reorganisation of the Group, certain share issuances of the Group, the election of the majority of members of the Board of Directors, the declaration and payment of dividends, the appointment of management, the approval of certain major transactions and other policy decisions. The interests of the City of Moscow may conflict with the interests of the Noteholders and any decisions that the Group may take in pursuing the interests of the City of Moscow that conflicts with the interests of the Noteholders may have a material adverse effect on the value of the Notes.

The Group may lose some or all of the City of Moscow’s business The Group’s relationship with the City of Moscow began in 1995. The Group is to a certain extent dependent on the business it derives from its affiliation with the City of Moscow. This business includes servicing municipal budget funds of the City of Moscow, financing projects of the City of Moscow, and extending

18 loans to and keeping accounts of enterprises affiliated with the City of Moscow, in each case on an arm’s length basis. As at 31 December 2009, the City of Moscow deposited a significant portion of its budget funds with the Group. These budget funds accounted for 14.7 per cent. of the Group’s total deposit portfolio and 8.5 per cent. of the Group’s total liabilities as at 31 December 2009, compared with 22.6 per cent. and 12.5 per cent. and 26.2 per cent. or 19.2 per cent., as at 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively. These deposits represent an important part of the Group’s deposits. The City of Moscow generally selects the banks it uses by open tender and the Group competes for the City of Moscow’s business on an arm’s length basis. In December 2005, the Group was among three commercial banks selected by the City of Moscow through an open tender authorised to keep the budget funds of the City of Moscow. Subsequently, on 30 September 2008, the Group was again among the four commercial banks appointed by the City of Moscow for this purpose. This appointment will last for three years, whereupon another tender process will be held. It should be noted that the City of Moscow has total freedom of choice in allocating its budget funds between the four chosen banks and tends to allocate funds to the bank which gives the highest bid (interest rate). The Group has also been involved in the financing of certain City of Moscow projects, generally on a competitive tender basis, since 1995. Although the Group believes that it will continue to be selected by the City of Moscow to finance many projects of the City of Moscow, there can be no assurance that it will continue to be selected by the of Moscow to finance many projects of the City of Moscow or that other banks will not participate in the financing of such projects and reduce significantly the Group’s business with the City of Moscow. The Bank returned deposits from the City of Moscow in the fourth quarter of 2009 (see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Recent Developments”).

Loans to enterprises owned by the Government of the City of Moscow accounted for 2.4 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009, compared with 1.4 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 1.2 per cent. as at 31 December 2007.

Some of the Group’s transactions are conducted with related parties Some of the Group’s liabilities are from related parties and a portion of the Group’s earnings is derived from activities and transactions with related parties, including the City of Moscow and entities and individuals affiliated with the City of Moscow or over which the City of Moscow may be able, directly or indirectly, to exert a significant degree of influence. As at 31 December 2009, loans to the Group’s related parties accounted for 2.5 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio compared to 1.5 per cent. and 1.3 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively.

As at 31 December 2009, the City of Moscow and a number of its municipal entities deposited a significant portion of their budget funds with the Group. See “– The Group may lose some or all of the City of Moscow’s business”. The Group has also made loans to ZAO “Inteko” (“Inteko”), a construction and manufacturing company which, although not a related party for IFRS purposes, is controlled by the wife of the Mayor of the City of Moscow. In addition, where the Group has granted loans to other borrowers engaged in construction activities linked to social or infrastructure projects initiated by the City of Moscow, such borrowings are effectively supported by performance guarantees from the City of Moscow. While transactions with such entities are carried out on an arm’s length basis and are subject to the same approval procedures and lending limits as transactions with unrelated parties, such related parties’ demand for such products and services from the Group may decline if the City of Moscow were to cease to be the principal shareholder of the Group, which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. See also “– The Group may lose some or all of the City of Moscow’s business.”

The Group faces significant competition in the Russian banking market

The Russian market for financial and banking services is highly competitive. Although the industry is dominated by a few Moscow-based banks, according to the CBR, 1,160 banks and non banking credit organisations entitled to carry out banking operations were registered in the Russian Federation as at 1 August 2010. Due to the large number and variety of banks in the Russian Federation, the Group faces competition from different banks in each of the business sectors and regions in which it operates.

19 Moreover, although foreign banks are currently allowed to operate in the Russian Federation only through their locally licensed subsidiaries, the Group expects that access of foreign banks to the Russian market will be facilitated by the Russian Federation accession to the World Trade Organisation (“WTO”). However, as at the date of this Prospectus it is unclear if the Russian Federation will accede to the WTO, and on which terms.

The Group considers its primary competitors among Russian banks in the overall corporate and retail financing sectors to be Sberbank (Savings Bank of the Russian Federation) (“Sberbank”), VTB Bank (open joint-stock company) (“VTB”), Gazprombank (Open Joint-stock Company) (“Gazprombank”), Joint Stock Commercial Bank “ROSBANK” (Open joint-stock company) (“Rosbank”), Open Joint-Stock Company “Alfa-Bank” (“Alfa-Bank”) and MDM Bank, Open Joint Stock Company (“MDM Bank”) and among foreign banks to be Closed Joint Stock Company International Moscow Bank (“Unicredit”), Closed joint stock company Raiffeisenbank (“Raiffeisenbank”) and Closed Joint Stock Company Commercial Bank Citibank (“Citibank”). The Group views Sberbank, VTB and Rosbank as major competitors in the retail loan sector. In the retail deposit sector, the Group considers its primary competitors to be Sberbank, VTB, Gazprombank, Rosbank, Alfa-Bank, Raiffeisenbank, MDM Bank and Open joint stock company “BANK URALSIB” (“Uralsib”). In the market for the provision of banking services to corporate clients, the Group competes directly with the largest Russian and international banks. The development of cross-border credit has resulted in intense competition in providing lending services to major Russian enterprises and exporters. Using comparatively inexpensive resources raised in the international financial markets and syndicated loans to finance large Russian enterprises, major international banks have expanded rapidly into this market segment. In the investment banking sector, the Group considers its primary competitors to be Sberbank, VTB, Rosbank, The Closed Joint-Stock Company “Troika Dialog” (“Troika Dialog”), Commercial Bank “Renaissance Capital” (limited Liability Company) (“Renaissance Capital”), Unicredit and Raiffeisenbank. The Group competes with other Russian banks for high-volume corporate clients with an interest in developing a long-term working relationship. Although the Group competes with the same group of Russian banks across its retail products as it does on the corporate side, it also faces competition from foreign banks such as Joint-Stock company “Banque Societe Generale Vostok” (“Société Generale”), HSBC Bank (RR) (Limited Liability Company) (“HSBC”), Citibank and Raiffeisenbank in respect of private banking products and services offered to high net worth retail customers. While the foreign banks have diminished their activity in the Russian Federation during the crisis, they are expected to re-launch their efforts as the economy stabilises. The Bank believes that the retail services market in 2010 has been influenced by a number of factors, including increased competition from the leading domestic retail market operators, primarily Sberbank and VTB. In addition, the Bank competes on a competitive tender basis with Sberbank, VTB and Russian Agricultural Bank (“Russian Agricultural Bank”) for funds from the City of Moscow. For a more detailed description of the Group’s competitors, see “Business – Competition.” If the Group is unable to continue to compete successfully in the sectors where it does business and if it is unable to respond to increased competition, it may have difficulty in maintaining its existing position and realising its strategy of diversifying its customer base, which may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

In the second half of 2006, the CBR adopted a package of regulatory measures designed to liberalise the process by which Russian banks raise equity financing. Such measures include elimination of, or significant reductions in, restrictions applicable to foreign investors acquiring shares of Russian banks. Such measures facilitate the ability of the Group’s current competitors to more easily access sources of capital both in and outside of the Russian Federation and, as a result, to compete more effectively with the Group. It may also lead to the entry into the market of new competitors, which could materially adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. For example, from 11 January 2007, the requirement to obtain prior permission of the CBR (i) by a Russian credit institution for participation by non- residents in any increase in its share capital; and (ii) by a Russian resident for any sale by it of shares (interests) in a Russian credit institution to non-residents, was abolished. The standard rules applicable to notification to, and obtaining prior approval of, the CBR in case of acquisition of shares (interests) in Russian banks and credit institutions now apply to resident and non-resident buyers equally. See “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation.”

20 In the second half of 2007, in response to the crisis in the international financial markets, the Group revised its approach to risk assessment. The Group reviewed its risk management strategies and implemented an internal stress testing programme in light of the deteriorating economic conditions. The Group set a strategic goal to apply a more conservative approach in evaluating the quality of the financial position of its borrowers, which included increased requirements in relation to the size and quality of collateral and stricter lending requirements. The Group introduced stricter provisioning requirements for borrowers not yet in default of their obligations. Since July 2010 the Group has relaxed certain of its anti-crisis restrictions by, for example, widening the range of industry sectors to which it extends corporate overdrafts and reducing the discount applied to collateral. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures – Collateral” for a more detailed description of the Group’s collateral requirements. Although the Group considers this policy to be prudent in the context of the current crisis (and at the same time the Group has less liquidity than certain of its competitors), there is a risk that other competitors of the Group who employ less conservative liquidity risk management policies will be able to employ their funds more efficiently than the Group and improve their respective market positions to the detriment of the Group. This, in turn, may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Group may lose some or all of its banking and lending business and some or all of its funding sources (deposits from commercial and governmental entities) to its competitors, which may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Recent expansion of the Group’s operations exposes it to increased credit risk and the Group may fail to manage this increased risk adequately Until the onset of the global economic crisis, the Group experienced significant growth, particularly in the size of its gross loan portfolio, which increased before taking into account provision for impairment by 9.1 per cent. to RUB 577,795.1 million as at 31 December 2009, compared to RUB 529,453.4 million as at 31 December 2008 and RUB 356,147.3 million as at 31 December 2007. For a more detailed discussion of the Group’s loan portfolio and loan impairment provisioning, see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Combined Results of Operations for the Years 2009, 2008 and 2007 – Provisions for impairment.” and “Operating and Financial Review of the Group Assets – Loans to customers.” The Group believes that notwithstanding the deterioration in its loan portfolio, its loan portfolio remains of good quality due to the Group’s lending policies, procedures and risk management system. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures” for a more detailed description of the Group’s lending procedures.

Historically, low default rates on loans extended by the Group to its customers enabled it to set relatively low provisions for impairment. However, as a result of the Group’s growth, the onset of the global economic crisis and increased levels of overdue loans, the Group’s has increased its levels of provisioning for impairment. In particular, the growth of the Group’s lending to SMEs and to retail customers, particularly with respect to the Russian individuals and medium-sized enterprises in its portfolio, has resulted in an increased level of impaired loans. Lending to such clients in the context of the global economic crisis may carry a greater risk of default than lending to large corporate clients and may lead to an increase of overdue amounts and, consequently, to higher loan impairment provisions. See “ – The Group may not be able to accurately assess the credit risk of potential borrowers and the Group has unpredictable exposure to credit risk of Russian corporations and individuals” and “Business – Business Strategy – Attracting additional corporate business.” Future growth of the Group’s loan portfolio could put additional pressure on the Group’s loan monitoring and control procedures.

The Group may fail to manage its growth adequately Overall growth in the Group’s business requires greater allocation of management resources away from day-to-day operations, continued development of its financial and information management control system, continued training of management and other personnel, presence of adequate supervision and maintenance of consistency of client services across extended regions throughout the Russian Federation. The Group’s failure to maintain its growth while at the same time maintaining adequate focus on existing business divisions may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

21 The Group’s strategy previously included a substantial expansion of its branch network and increase in the size of its overall loan portfolio in a relatively short period of time. Any further expansion of the Group’s branch network may entail significant investment, as well as increased operating costs. There is no guarantee that the Group will achieve a positive return on any investment that it makes in the expansion of its branch network or that growth in the Group’s loan portfolio would not, over time, result in an overall decline in the credit quality of the expanded loan portfolio.

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk The global economic crisis has put upward pressure on interest rates in the Russian Federation and the official figures for inflation in the Russian Federation in 2009, 2008 and 2007 were 8.8 per cent., 13.3 per cent. and 11.9 per cent., respectively. As at the date of this Prospectus, the rate of inflation in the Russian economy is decreasing (the official projected figure for inflation in the Russian Federation in 2010 is approximately 6.5–7.5 per cent. according to estimates of the Russian Ministry for Economic Development). The Group’s revenues are mainly derived from net interest income and, accordingly, are highly sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates charged to its borrowers and interest expenses that it incurs vis-à-vis its customers. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk principally as a result of lending and making advances to customers and other banks at fixed interest rates and in amounts and for periods which may differ from the Group’s funding sources (customer accounts, bank borrowings and securities offerings). While the Group monitors interest rates with respect to its assets and liabilities and seeks to match its interest rate positions, the Group is unable to predict with any certainty changes in market interest rates, which are affected by many factors outside its control, including inflation, money supply, domestic and international events and changes in Russian and global financial markets. Interest rate movements may adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Fluctuations in interest rates could adversely affect the Group’s operations and financial condition in a number of different ways. An increase in interest rates generally may decrease the value of the Group’s fixed rate loans if the Group is unable to pass on such increase to its borrowers and raise the Group’s funding costs. Such an increase could also generally decrease the value of fixed rate debt securities in the Group’s securities portfolio. In addition, an increase in interest rates may reduce overall demand for new loans and increase the risk of customer default, while general volatility in interest rates may result in a gap between the Group’s interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. As a result, the Group may incur additional costs and expose itself to other risks by adjusting such asset and liability positions through the use of derivative instruments. Interest rates are sensitive to many factors beyond the Group’s control, including the policies of central banks, including the CBR, domestic and international economic conditions and political factors. The Group has sought to compensate for decreased lending margins through more effective use and diversification of its funding into lower cost funding sources and increasing fee income. Although the Group has implemented these measures as well as interest rate risk management procedures, there can be no assurance that these strategies will protect the Group from the negative effects of future interest rate fluctuations and that adverse interest rate movements will not affect its business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to protect itself from the adverse effects of future interest rate fluctuations. Any fluctuations in market interest rates could lead to a reduction in net interest income and adversely affect the Group’s financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. See “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Liquidity and Market Risk – Market risk – Interest rate risk”.

The Group’s income from proprietary securities and currency operations is volatile The Group engages in proprietary securities operations. The Group’s income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 10,530.9 million, compared to negative RUB 6,820.7 million and RUB 652.3 million for the years ended 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively. For a more detailed discussion of the Group’s proprietary trading operations, see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Combined Results of Operations for the Years 2009, 2008 and 2007 – Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” and “Business – Funding Proprietary Securities Activities”.

22 The Group’s income from securities operations depends on numerous factors beyond its control, such as overall market trading activity, interest rate levels, fluctuations in exchange rates and general market volatility. The Group has placed limits on its trading securities portfolio in respect of various types of securities and securities trading and single issuer limits, which are designed to maintain its securities portfolio risk at an acceptable level. In response to the current uncertainties in the global financial markets, the Group actively reviews these, and in 2008 the Group adopted a more conservative securities trading policy and streamlined its portfolio to reduce the volume of its securities portfolio, in particular in equity securities. In 2009 the Group began to increase the volume of debt securities in its securities portfolio. The increase in the securities portfolio also allowed the Group to increase its position to obtain secured funding from the CBR. As at 31 December 2009, the majority of the Group’s securities were freely tradable debt securities in bonds issued by leading Russian companies and Russian federal and municipal debt securities. For a discussion of the Group’s investments in financial assets, see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group-Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition-Fluctuations in the value of financial assets” and “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Combined Results of Operations for the Years 2009, 2008 and 2007 – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.” These securities expose the Group to the risk that market price fluctuations may adversely affect the value of the Group’s securities portfolio. For a discussion of the Group’s trading and investment portfolio, see “Selected Consolidated Financial Information – Investment Portfolio” and “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Market and Liquidity Risks – Market Risks.”

The Group is exposed to a number of risks related to the movement of market prices in the underlying instruments, including the risk of unfavourable market price movements relative to its long or short positions, a decline in the market liquidity of the related instruments, volatility in market prices, interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates relating to these positions and the risk that instruments the Group chooses to hedge certain positions do not track the market value of those positions. The global economic crisis had a very significant adverse effect on the Russian stock market, see “Turmoil in global credit markets has already adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the Russian economy, the Russian banking industry in general and the Group in particular”.

The Group also trades currency on behalf of its clients and for its own account and maintains open currency positions, which gives rise to exposure to currency risk. Although the Group has in place limits aimed at reducing currency risk and adheres to the CBR limits on open currency positions, currency exchange rates and the volatility of both the Rouble and the U.S. Dollar may materially adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. See “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Market Risks – Currency Risk”.

The Group’s exposure to currency risk may increase, particularly as it returns to the international capital markets As at 31 December 2009, 66.7 per cent. of the Group’s loans to customers (net of provisions for impairment) were denominated in Roubles, compared to 65.0 and 70.4 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively.

The Group aims to diversify its funding sources by accessing the domestic and international fixed income capital markets with a number of domestic promissory notes, international loan participation notes issues and by obtaining syndicated loans. A portion of this debt is denominated in U.S. dollars, Euros and Swiss Francs. Upon any depreciation of the Rouble against foreign currencies, the Group becomes subject to higher interest payments on its foreign currency denominated liabilities when calculated in Rouble terms. The Group plans to continue to access the international capital and syndicated loan markets, which subjects it to risks inherent in currency fluctuations and the uncertainty of these markets as a reliable funding source. Although the Group has procedures in place to manage this risk by setting limits and performing certain other measures aimed at reducing currency risk, including, but not limited to, entering into foreign exchange swap contracts, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. See “ – Risks relating to the Russian Federation – Exchange rates, exchange controls and repatriation restrictions could adversely affect the value of investments in the

23 Russian Federation” and “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Market and Liquidity Risk – Market Risk and Currency Risk”.

Significant off-balance sheet credit related commitments may lead to potential losses As part of its business, the Group issues guarantees and letters of credit. As at 31 December 2009, the Group had issued guarantees amounting to RUB 53.7 million and letters of credit amounting to RUB 8.8 million, together with undrawn credit lines and commitments to extend credit amounting to RUB 31.4 million. As at 31 December 2008, the Group had issued guarantees amounting to RUB 48.1 million and letters of credit amounting to RUB 8.8 million, together with undrawn credit lines and commitments to extend credit amounting to RUB 23.7 million. All such credit related commitments are classified as off-balance sheet items in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. Although the Group has established allowances for its off-balance sheet credit related commitments, there can be no assurance that these allowances will be sufficient to cover the actual losses that the Group may potentially incur on its credit related commitments, particularly in light of current economic conditions. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Off-balance sheet arrangements” and “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Market and Liquidity Risk”.

The Group’s risk management strategies and procedures may leave it exposed to unidentified and unanticipated risks Although the Group invests substantial time and effort in its risk management strategies and procedures, such strategies and procedures for risk management may nevertheless fail under certain circumstances, particularly when confronted with risks that it has not identified or anticipated. Some of the Group’s risk management methods are based upon observations of historical market behaviour. The Group applies statistical techniques to these observations to arrive at quantifications of its market risk exposures. See “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Market and Liquidity Risks”. Even though publicly available information and historical data accumulated by the Group includes the behaviour of all market sectors during the 1998 crisis, it only covers a ten-year period, limiting the coverage of the Group’s models. Moreover, in developing its statistical models, the Group may not identify or anticipate some circumstances and quantifications and may not take all risks into account. If the Group’s measures to assess and mitigate risks prove insufficient, its losses may be greater than expected and this could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Group’s business entails operational risks and technological risks The Group is exposed to many types of operational risk, including the risk of fraud by employees or outsiders, unauthorised transactions by employees or operational errors, including clerical or record keeping errors or errors resulting from faulty computer or telecommunications systems. Although there have been no material fraud claims or litigation within the Group, the Group has in the past brought claims against for fraud. Given the Group’s high volume of transactions, errors may be repeated or compounded before they are discovered and rectified. In addition, the Group’s information technology systems do not fully support its operations and a number of transactions at the Group are processed manually, which may further increase the risk that human error or employee tampering or manipulation will result in losses that are difficult to detect. See “– The Group faces technological risks” and “Business – Information Technology”. The Group maintains a system of controls designed to keep operational risk at appropriate levels and has, in the context of the crisis, centralised to a large extent the powers of branch managers. See “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Lending Policies and Procedures-Credit procedures.” However, there can be no assurance that it will not suffer losses from failure of these controls to detect or contain operational risk in the future.

The Group also manages its operational risk through obtaining outside insurance. See “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Market and Liquidity Risks – Operational Risks”. However, the Group does not carry insurance coverage at levels comparable to those customary in other countries for a bank of its size and nature and, under some circumstances, its insurance coverage may prove insufficient. The same is true of many Russian banks and other companies, as the Russian insurance sector is not fully developed and insurance is not widely relied upon to manage operational risk.

24 The Group is also exposed to technological risks. The Group’s banking business requires the development of sufficient communication channels and software, the creation of large automated systems and considerable computer capacity located throughout the Russian Federation. The Group positions itself as a full-service provider of commercial banking services that offers high quality services to clients in all Russian regions and it seeks to ensure the same technological capabilities for all of its business units. Matching the capacities of its information systems, network and technologies and the pace of its business development requires considerable expenditure.

The Group’s financial performance, its ability to meet its strategic objectives, to manage risks arising out of the current market environment, and the future growth of its branch and office network depend and will continue to depend to a significant extent upon the functionality of its information technology (“IT”) and its ability to increase systems capacity and functionality. There is no assurance that the Group’s back-up systems would be sufficient in the case of a disruption of the its IT systems. A disruption (even short term) to the functionality of the Group’s IT systems, or delays in increasing the capacity of the IT systems, could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects of the Group.

Although the Group has upgraded its IT systems over a number of years, these systems are currently significantly less developed in certain respects than those of banks in more developed countries. Lack of immediately available consolidated financial and operating data may hinder the ability of the Group’s management to make decisions, to react promptly to changes in market conditions and to detect fraud and non compliance with internal procedures. In addition, insufficient integration of the IT system increases the Group’s operational risks and the costs of further business development. If the Group’s IT systems become unable to adequately support its operations and fail to allow it to effectively monitor and manage its operations, this could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The expansion of operations and the introduction of new technologies result in correspondingly greater risks, as the financial consequences of any failure of equipment, networks or software become more severe. Taking into account international experience, the Group invests considerable time and money in order to keep its technology up-to-date, centralise its information systems, create appropriate reserves and duplicate capacities, develop internal audit functions and control the operation of its hardware and software. Nevertheless, the Group cannot eliminate the possibility of a banking system failure that may, for some time, impact its operational activities and lead to expenses that may materially adversely affect its financial performance or reputational damage that may affect the Group’s ability to attract new customers.

The Group’s employees may not adhere to compliance procedures The Group runs the risk that its employees will not adhere to its compliance procedures and limits on risk related activities. The Group takes various precautions to prevent and detect misconduct; however, these may not be effective in all cases. Misconduct by existing employees could include binding the Group to transactions that exceed authorised limits or present unacceptable risks, or concealing unauthorised or unsuccessful activities, which, in either case, may result in unknown and unmanaged risks or losses. Employee misconduct could also involve the improper use or disclosure of confidential information that could result in regulatory and legal sanctions and significant reputational or financial harm, which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Group’s measures to prevent money laundering may not be completely effective In 2006 and the first part of 2007, the CBR excluded several banks from the deposit insurance system based on suspicions of money laundering and revoked a number of banking licences for violations of reporting requirements under Federal Law No. 115-FZ “On Combating of the Legalisation of Illegal Earnings (Money Laundering) and Terrorism Financing” dated 7 August 2001 (as amended) (the “Anti-Money Laundering Law”). Although the Group believes that it fully complies with the reporting requirements under the Anti-Money Laundering Law, there is no guarantee that it will not, due to technical or other reasons stemming from the complexity of the regulations or undetected fraudulent representations by customers, breach the Anti-Money Laundering Law. Any such breach could result in certain enforcement actions, which

25 could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects, either through an inability to operate or a reduction in interbank liquidity available to it.

The Group’s accounting systems may not be as sophisticated as those of companies organised in jurisdictions with a longer history of compliance with international accounting standards Accounting and reporting requirements in the Russian Federation are not comparable to those in other jurisdictions, such as the United States and the United Kingdom and Russian Accounting Standards (“RAS”) are not comparable to either IFRS or US GAAP. Russian accounting legislation continues to develop and has been subject to change on a regular basis in recent years.

As of 1 January 2004, all credit organisations in the Russian Federation must prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS in addition to the statutory accounting reports in accordance with RAS. Federal Law No. 395-I “On Banks and Banking Activity” dated 2 December 1990, as amended (the “Banking Law”) contains certain periodic disclosure requirements, including the requirement to publish annual statutory accounting reports in accordance with RAS. As its systems and processes are tailored to the requirements of RAS, it may take the Group longer than comparable companies in other jurisdictions to prepare its consolidated annual and interim financial statements, in accordance with IFRS. In accordance with the Banking Law, the Group is required to publish certain RAS accounting reports quarterly, including a balance sheet, income statement and information on its assets, capital reserves and allowances for non-performing loans, which do not contain all of the information contained in the Group’s IFRS consolidated financial statements and are not prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Group has regularly published and filed such reports since its establishment and has complied with the relevant reporting requirements. In accordance with Russian legislation applicable to securities issuers, the Group is required to file quarterly reports with the FSFM. These reports include certain information about the Group, its management, subsidiaries, affiliates and selected financial and business information (such as events of litigation and quarterly statutory accounting reports prepared in accordance with RAS). Despite recent initiatives to improve corporate transparency in the Russian Federation, there is less publicly available information about the Group than there is for comparable companies in other jurisdictions, such as the United States and the United Kingdom.

As a result of the relatively recent introduction of international accounting standards in the Russian Federation, Russian companies and corporate groups, including the Group, may not have fully developed and implemented the required methodologies for the preparation of international financial statements, including the internal control frameworks, development methodologies or risk assessment activities on which the preparation of international financial statements depends. Historically, the financial information provided by the Group’s subsidiaries has not always been consistently thorough and efficient to allow for the Group’s accounting personnel to process and consolidate the information for the purposes of producing its financial statements. As the Group develops and implements accounting systems, the Group may identify further issues with the financial information provided by the Group’s subsidiaries that may impact the Group’s historical financial statements.

The Group depends on its senior management and key personnel and it may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified professionals Future operating results of the Group depend to a large extent upon the continued contributions of senior managers and key personnel. The Group could be adversely affected if any of the senior managers or key personnel of the Group cease to actively participate in the management of its business. In addition, the Group depends in large part on its ability to attract, train, retain and motivate highly skilled employees and management. There is significant competition for employees with experience in banking, technology and programming. In particular, competition within the Russian banking industry is intense for personnel with relevant experience, especially in regions outside Moscow where the number of potential qualified personnel is relatively limited. In the future, it may be increasingly difficult for the Group to hire and retain qualified personnel. In addition, the Group may lose some of its most qualified and experienced personnel to its competitors. In order to recruit qualified and experienced employees and to minimise the possibility of their departure to other banks, the Group provides compensation packages that it believes are consistent with the evolving standards of the Russian labour market, and as a result may encounter larger than expected operational costs. If the Group cannot attract, train, retain and motivate qualified personnel, then it may be

26 unable to compete effectively in the Russian banking industry and its growth strategies may be limited, which in each case could materially adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. For a more detailed discussion of the Group’s management, see “Management”.

The Russian deposit insurance system is relatively new and there can be no assurance that implementation of the system or other possible banking reform will not negatively impact on the businesses of Russian banks, including the Group As part of the Russian banking reform, the Federal Law No. 177-FZ “On Insurance of Deposits of Individuals Placed with Banks of the Russian Federation” dated 23 December 2003 (as amended) (the “Deposit Law”) implemented a framework for credit organisations wishing to take retail customer deposits (the “Deposit Insurance System”). The Deposit Law, together with the ensuring CBR regulations (the “Deposit Regime”), has introduced new requirements for banks in the Russian Federation wishing to participate in the Russian Deposit Insurance System.

In particular, under the Deposit Regime, banks are required to meet certain standards in relation to the accuracy of their financial reports and to comply with the CBR prudential requirements and financial stability requirements. The adequacy of a bank’s financial stability is assessed on, inter alia, certain transparency criteria, such as the transparency of a bank’s shareholding structure, the transparency of the parties exercising a material influence (direct or indirect) on the management of a bank and the significance of the influence of off-shore entities on the management of a bank.

All banks wishing to continue to accept individuals’ deposits in the Russian Federation and participate in the Deposit Insurance System were required to apply to the CBR prior to 27 June 2004 for a certificate confirming compliance with the Deposit Regime. The Bank was accepted into the Deposit Insurance System on 28 October 2004 under number 2748. As a member of the Deposit Insurance System, the Bank is required to comply with its requirements on an ongoing basis. Failure to meet these requirements in certain instances may lead to the expulsion of the Bank from the Deposit Insurance System and revocation of its licence to accept deposits from individuals. This would cause the Group to lose its retail client base and would be likely to have a significant adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects of the Group. See “Overview of the Russian Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation.”

The Group is a highly regulated entity and it may fail to comply with applicable legal requirements, which could lead to a licence required by the Group in connection with its operations being revoked or the Group failing to receive a licence that it requires Regulatory authorities in the Russian Federation exercise considerable discretion in matters of enforcement and interpretation of applicable laws, regulations and standards, the issuance and renewal of licences, permits, approvals and authorisations. The Group is subject to strict regulation in the Russian Federation by governmental organisations, particularly the CBR and the FSFM. The requirements, including capital adequacy requirements, imposed by the Group’s regulators are designed to ensure the integrity of the financial markets and to protect customers and other third parties with whom the Group deals. These requirements are not designed to protect holders of the Notes and may limit the Group’s activities and increase its costs of doing business. A breach of regulatory guidelines could expose the Group to potential liability and other sanctions, including the loss of its banking licences.

Regulatory authorities have extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and the regulatory structure governing the Group’s operations is continuously evolving. Existing laws and regulations could be amended, the manner in which laws and regulations are enforced or interpreted could change and new laws or regulations could be adopted. If the existing interpretation of the regulations changed or future regulations were imposed on the Group and the Group became unable to comply with such regulations, it could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. See “– Risks Related to the Russian Federation and the City of Moscow – Selective, unlawful or arbitrary action by the regulatory authorities may have a material adverse affect on the Group’s business and the value of an investment in the Notes.”

27 The Group has taken, at different times, a variety of actions relating to share issuances, share disposals and acquisitions, valuations of property, interested party transactions, major transactions, antimonopoly issues and other corporate matters that, if successfully challenged on the basis of non compliance with applicable legal requirements by competent state authorities, counterparties in such transactions or the Group’s shareholders, could result in the invalidation of such transactions or the imposition of other liabilities. As applicable provisions of Russian law are sometimes subject to inconsistent interpretations and application, there can be no assurance that the Group would be able to successfully defend itself against any challenge brought against such transactions or corporate decisions, and the invalidation of any such transactions or decisions or the imposition of any such liability may, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

In addition, the regulatory authorities have the right to conduct periodic inspections of the Group’s operations and properties. Any such future inspections may result in a determination that the Group has violated laws, decrees or regulations, and the Group may be unable to refute such determination or remedy the violations. The Group’s failure to comply with existing or future laws and regulations, the terms and conditions of its licences and permits or the findings of governmental inspections may result in the imposition of fines or penalties or more severe sanctions including the suspension, amendment or termination of the Group’s licences, permits, approvals and authorisations, or in requirements that the Group cease certain of its business activities, or in criminal and administrative penalties applicable to its officers. Any such decisions, requirements or sanctions, or any increase in governmental regulation of the Group’s operations, could increase its costs and materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Group has the licences that are required for it to perform its banking operations. Although the Group has been successful in obtaining CBR and the FSFM licences in the past, there can be no assurance that the Group will be able to obtain new licences or maintain its existing licences in the future. Each of the CBR and the FSFM may, in its discretion, impose additional requirements or deny the Group’s request for licences. The loss of or breach of the terms of, or the failure to obtain, a CBR or a FSFM licence in the future could result in cash-flow difficulties and penalties such as the imposition of fines on the Group, which may, in turn, affect the Group’s ability to satisfy its liabilities and run its business, and would be likely to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects. The loss of the Group’s general banking licence will result in its inability to perform any banking operations.

In addition, the Group is exposed to the risk that the CBR may impose sanctions on the Group for noncompliance with certain mandatory economic ratios or other regulations. Such sanctions could include a fine, the initiation of temporary administration of the Group by the CBR or revocation of its banking licence. Under Russian law, the CBR may appoint a temporary administrator for a term of up to six months if a bank fails to comply with CBR orders to remedy breaches, or if those breaches have created an actual threat to the interests of its creditors (i.e. depositors). A bank’s general banking licence may be revoked after the repeated imposition on the bank of other sanctions during the same calendar year.

While the Group makes strenuous efforts to comply with the applicable regulations, there is no assurance that it will always be successful in doing so. Certain failures on the part of the Group to comply with such regulations could result in the withdrawal of a licence that the Group requires to run its business successfully, which would be likely to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Certain covenants in the Group’s debt agreements restrict its operations and failure of the Group to comply with such covenants may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects The restrictions in the Group’s international borrowings (see “Business – International Borrowings” and see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Contractual Obligations”), the terms of which vary significantly, limit, among other things, the ability of the Bank and certain of its subsidiaries to create liens on assets, enter into business combinations or engage in certain activities with companies within the Group. A failure by the Group to comply with these restrictions would constitute a default under certain of its international borrowings and could result in a cross – default under

28 other agreements to which the Group is a party. In the event of such a default, the Group’s obligations under one or more of these agreements could, under certain circumstances, become immediately due and payable, which would have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Such failure may not enable the Noteholders to accelerate the prepayment of the Loan by the Bank.

The Group may require additional capital in the future in order to meet CBR capital adequacy requirements The Group is required to comply with the capital adequacy requirements of the CBR, which differ in some significant respects from the regulations applied in those countries that have adopted the guidelines regarding solvency and capitalisation adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision of the Bank for International Settlements as provided in such Committee’s paper entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards” dated July 1988, as updated (the “BIS Guidelines”). Calculated under BIS Guidelines, the Bank had Tier I and total capital adequacy ratios of 12.8 per cent. and 18.9 per cent., respectively as at 31 December 2009. Under Russian law, the minimum capital adequacy ratio that the banks are required to maintain is calculated (on an unconsolidated basis) as the ratio of regulatory capital to the total amount of its risk weighted assets. The minimum capital adequacy ratio required by the CBR currently is 10 per cent. for banks whose capital is RUB 180 million (approximately EUR 4.6 million) or more and 11 per cent. for banks whose capital is less than RUB 180 million (approximately EUR 4.6 million). If the capital adequacy ratio of a bank drops below 2 per cent., then the CBR must revoke such bank’s banking licence. The Group’s ability to obtain additional capital may be restricted by a number of factors, including:

• the Group and the Group’s future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;

• any necessary government regulatory approvals;

• the ability of the Group’s shareholders to provide additional capital; and

• general market conditions for capital-raising activities by banks and other financial institutions.

If the Group requires additional capital in the future in order to meet CBR capital adequacy requirements, it cannot guarantee that it will be able to obtain this capital on favourable terms, in a timely manner or at all. The Bank’s shareholders are under no obligation to inject additional capital into the Bank. For more information regarding a contemplated future capital raising, see “– Recent Developments – Equity Issuance”.

If the Group is unable to raise further capital to support its growth or if its capital position otherwise declines, its ability to implement its business strategy may be materially adversely affected.

In addition, certain of the Group’s credit facilities contain covenants regarding capital adequacy, any breach of which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial performance, results of operations and/or prospects.

Revisions to the capital adequacy standards under the Basel Accord could limit the use and amount of capital that the Group has available for its business The risk-adjusted capital guidelines promulgated by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the “Basel Accord”), form the basis for the capital adequacy guidelines of the CBR. The implementation of the Basel Accord in the Russian Federation is still underway. In November 2009, the CBR adopted a number of regulations aimed at the implementation of the Basel Accord, which took effect on 1 July 2010. The effect these revised guidelines will have on the Group’s requirements for capital and its capital position is not currently known. If any future alterations to the capital adequacy standards under the Basel Accord with regard to limits on the deployment and use of capital require the Group to maintain higher capital levels or limit the use of significant portions of the Group’s capital such that it is unable to execute its strategy of expanding its retail and SME lending business and maintain its traditionally strong position in corporate lending, there could be a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

29 Changes in the Group’s customer focus may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects The Group’s strategy is, among other things, to focus on growing its SME client base and to grow its retail customer base significantly. See “Business – Business Strategy – Attracting additional retail clients” and “Business – Business Strategy – Attracting additional corporate business.” In order to achieve this, the Group is seeking to offer new lines of products, leverage its large branch network within the Russian Federation, exploit cross-selling opportunities across its business segments, and continue its modernisation of the Group’s information technology and management systems at all levels within its business divisions. There is a risk that the Group may not be successful in its aims to grow its SME and retail customer base and this could have a material adverse impact upon the business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects of the Group.

In addition, although increased lending to SME clients and retail customers may diversify the Group’s loan portfolio, it also may increase the credit risk exposure in the loan portfolio. In particular, SMEs and retail customers typically pose a greater credit risk than large companies and there is often less credit history available for such clients. Negative developments in the Russian economy have affected these borrowers more significantly than large corporates. As a result, lending to these segments represents a relatively higher degree of risk than lending to other groups and results in higher levels of overdue loans and losses. This, in turn, has resulted in higher levels of provisions for loan impairment. “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Factors Affecting the Group’s Results of Operations and Financial Condition – Provisions for Impairment”. It is uncertain whether the high interest rates paid by these customer segments will offset the higher cost to the Group of loans to the SME and retail loan segments. Further, lending to these target segments has required the implementation and application of credit policies and provisioning procedures that differ from those used for large corporate borrowers. The ability of the Group to grow its customer base and expand its loan portfolio will depend upon the implementation of its credit policies and provisioning procedures, as well as capital growth, in order to maintain its capital adequacy requirements and any failure to implement such policies and procedures or meet capital adequacy requirements, together with an accurate risk management policy, may have a negative effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures – Credit approval process” for a more detailed description of the Group’s credit risk assessment procedure.

Liability for the obligations of the Group’s subsidiaries could materially affect its financial position and business in general The Civil Code and the Joint-Stock Companies Law generally provide that the shareholders in a Russian joint-stock company are not liable for the obligations of the joint-stock company and only bear the risk of loss of their investment. This may not be the case, however, when one company (the parent) is capable of determining decisions made by another company (the subsidiary). The parent company bears joint and several liability for transactions concluded by the subsidiary in carrying out these decisions if: (a) this decision-making capability arises from prevailing participation in the charter capital of the subsidiary or it is provided in a contract between the companies or arguably arises under other circumstances and (b) the parent company gives obligatory directions to the subsidiary.

In addition, the parent company is liable secondarily for the debts of the subsidiary if the subsidiary becomes insolvent or bankrupt as a result of the action or inaction of the parent company. This is the case regardless of how the parent’s capacity to influence or determine decisions of the subsidiary arises. If the Bank is held to be liable for the obligations and debts of its subsidiaries, such liability could materially and adversely affect its business financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Further, other shareholders of a subsidiary may claim compensation for the subsidiary’s losses from the parent company if it caused the subsidiary to take action(s) knowing that such action(s) would result in losses. Such liability may apply to the Bank with respect to its subsidiaries. If the Group is found to be so liable, this could have a material adverse effect on its business financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

30 Risks Related to the Russian Federation Investors in emerging markets, such as the Russian Federation, are subject to greater risks than in more developed markets, including significant political, legal and economic risks and risks related to fluctuations in the global economy Investors in emerging markets, such as the Russian Federation, should be aware that these markets are subject to greater risks than more developed markets, including in some cases, significant political, legal and economic risks.

Generally, investment in emerging markets is only suitable for sophisticated investors who can bear losses and fully appreciate the significance of the risks involved.

Emerging market governments and judiciaries often exercise broad, unchecked discretion and are susceptible to abuse and corruption. The economy of the Russian Federation, like other emerging economies, is particularly vulnerable to market downturns and economic slowdowns elsewhere in the world. As has happened in the past, financial problems or an increase in the perceived risks associated with investing in the Russian Federation or other emerging economies could dampen foreign investment in the Russian Federation and adversely affect the Russian economy. These developments could severely limit the Group’s access to capital and could adversely affect the purchasing power of its clients and, consequently, the Group’s products and services.

It should also be noted that emerging markets, such as the Russian Federation, are subject to rapid change and that the information set out in this Prospectus may become outdated within a relatively short period. Moreover, financial turmoil in any emerging market country tends to adversely affect prices in stocks and prices for debt securities for all emerging markets as investors move their money to more stable, developed markets. The Russian markets have been highly volatile during the global economic crisis beginning in 2008. Such volatility has caused market regulators to temporarily suspend trading on the Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange Group (“MICEX”) and RTS stock exchanges multiple times beginning in September 2008. The MICEX and RTS stock exchanges have experienced significant volatility since the beginning of the global economic crisis in 2008 (including significant increases during 2009 and 2010). As has happened in the past, financial problems or an increase in the perceived risks associated with investing in emerging economies could dampen foreign investment in the Russian Federation and adversely affect the Russian economy. Companies that operate in emerging or developing markets can face severe liquidity constraints as foreign funding sources are withdrawn as a result of this. Additionally, the availability of credit to entities operating within the emerging markets is significantly influenced by levels of investor confidence in such markets as a whole and so any factors that impact market confidence (for example, a decrease in credit ratings or state or central bank intervention in one market) could affect the price or availability of funding for entities within any of these markets. Financial turmoil could adversely affect the Group’s business, as well as result in a decrease in the price of the Notes. Accordingly, investors should exercise particular care when evaluating the risks involved and must decide for themselves whether, in light of these risks, their investment is appropriate.

The continuation of turmoil in global credit markets may continue to adversely affect the Russian Federation’s economy The credit markets, both globally and in the Russian Federation, have faced significant volatility and liquidity constraints since the summer of 2007. Global credit markets tightened initially as a result of concerns over the United States sub prime mortgages crisis and the valuation and liquidity of mortgage backed securities and other financial instruments, such as asset backed commercial paper. Significant mark to market write downs of asset values followed, initially in respect of mortgage backed securities, but such write downs then spread to other financial instruments, such as syndicated loans, and other classes of assets. These write downs have caused many financial institutions to seek additional capital, to merge with larger and stronger financial institutions and, in some cases, to fail, such as in the case of the U.S. investment bank Lehman Brothers. Reflecting concern about the stability of the financial markets generally and the strength of counterparties, many lenders have reduced and, in some cases, ceased to provide funding to borrowers, including other financial institutions.

31 In response to the global economic crisis affecting the global banking sector and financial markets and the threats to the ability of investment banks, other financial institutions and in some cases, countries, to continue as going concerns, governments in the United States, in many of the largest countries in Europe and elsewhere have announced, and in many cases introduced, significant rescue packages, which include, among other things, the recapitalisation of banks through government purchases of common and preferred equity securities, the government guarantee of certain forms of bank debt, the purchase of distressed assets from banks and other financial institutions by the Government and the provision of guarantees of distressed assets held by banks and other financial institutions by the state. Despite these measures, the volatility and market disruption in the global banking sector has continued. It is difficult to estimate what impact these measures will have on the financial markets, or whether further measures will be required in addition to those already implemented or announced. There can be no assurance that such measures will succeed in returning stability to the global banking sector and financial markets in the short term or beyond. The continuation of turmoil in global credit markets may continue to adversely affect the Russian Federation’s economy, which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Additionally, because the Russian Federation produces and exports large volumes of oil and gas, the Russian economy is particularly sensitive to the price of oil and gas on the world market. There has been a dramatic decrease in the price of oil since it reached its peak in the summer of 2008, resulting in sharp decreases in the Russian Government revenues, which in turn has had a significant negative impact on the Russian economy. Although the price of oil and gas recovered in late 2009 and in 2010, there is no assurance that it will not decline again, which could restrict growth and liquidity in the Russian economy and this in turn could materially and adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Economic instability in the Russian Federation could materially adversely affect the Group’s business Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Russian Federation’s society and economy have been undergoing a rapid transformation in the context of the Russian Government’s attempts to transform the Russian Federation from a one-party state with a centrally-planned economy to a pluralist democracy with a market-oriented economy. This transformation has been marked by periods of instability, and the Russian economy at various times has experienced:

• significant declines in GDP;

• hyperinflation;

• an unstable currency;

• high government debt relative to GDP;

• significant use of barter transactions and illiquid promissory notes to settle commercial transactions;

• widespread tax evasion;

• growth of “black” and “grey” market economies;

• high levels of capital flight;

• corruption and extensive penetration of organised crime into the economy;

• social and governmental instability;

• lack of consensus between federal and local governments;

• ethnic and religious tensions;

• significant increases in unemployment and underemployment;

• high poverty levels among the population; and

32 • outdated and deteriorating physical infrastructure.

The Russian economy has historically been subject to abrupt downturns. The events and aftermath of 17 August 1998 when the Russian Federation defaulted on its short-term Rouble-denominated treasury bills and other Rouble-denominated securities, the CBR abandoned the Rouble currency band and its efforts to maintain the Rouble/U.S. dollar rate within it and imposed a temporary moratorium on certain hard currency payments to foreign counterparties, led to an immediate and severe devaluation of the Rouble, a sharp increase in the rate of inflation, a significant deterioration in the Russian banking system, significant defaults on hard currency obligations, a dramatic decline in the prices of Russian debt and equity securities, and an inability to raise funds on the international capital markets by Russian borrowers.

From May to July 2004, following a general fall in confidence in the Russian banking system, the Russian interbank lending market contracted significantly, resulting in a decrease in liquidity in the Russian Federation. In addition, the Russian Federation’s financial markets and economy as a whole suffered a sharp decline due to the global economic crisis. The positive trends in the Russian economy in the years preceding the global economic crisis such as increases in GDP, a relatively stable currency and a reduced level of inflation have begun to reverse as a consequence of the global economic crisis. As the Russian Federation produces and exports large quantities of crude oil, natural gas and other commodities, the Russian economy is particularly vulnerable to fluctuations in the prices such commodities on the world market, which reached record high levels in the first half of 2008 and have since experienced significant decreases. The greatly reduced level of revenue generated for the Russian budget due to the decline in the price of key revenue- generating commodities has led the Russian Government to cut spending. The global economic crisis in the Russian Federation has also seen significant volatility in the Rouble against the U.S. dollar and Euro between the second half of 2008 and the second half of 2009. In addition, the Russian Federation’s financial markets suffered a severe decline due to the global economic crisis. Such volatility, together with the lack of liquidity in the Russian economy has had a destabilising and adverse effect on the Russian economy and could have a similar effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Russian economy has recently been characterised by high volatility in the debt and equity markets, and sharp reductions in foreign investment. In light of these recent developments, international rating agencies have downgraded the Russian Federation’s sovereign credit rating, which reflects an assessment by such agencies that there is an increased credit risk that the Russian Government may default on its obligations. These assessments may lead to a further reduction in foreign investment and an increased cost of borrowing for the Russian Government. In late 2008, the Russian Government announced plans to institute more than USD 200 billion in emergency financial assistance measures in order to ease taxes, refinance foreign debt and encourage lending. Since the onset of the global economic crisis, the Russian Government made approximately USD 1 trillion available to the financial sector (by providing funds to financial institutions and directly to certain borrowers in the manufacturing and resource – sector) in an effort to stimulate new lending and keep financial institutions afloat. See “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation – Measures to support the liquidity of the Russian Banking system”. Although during 2009 and 2010, the Russian Federation’s financial markets, the stock market and the Rouble have generally shown signs of improvement, there can be no assurance that these or other measures will continue or will result in a sustained recovery of the Russian economy.

In view of the above factors, the Group has carried out scenario analyses and stress tests with macroeconomic scenarios with adverse effects comparable to the 1998 crisis. The Group closely monitors the possible adverse effects of such events on the Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations. See “– Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit, Market and Liquidity Risks”. However, there can be no assurance that, notwithstanding these risk management initiatives, the Group has appropriately prepared itself for all such possible crises and any failure to manage a crisis going forward could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial condition, business, results of operations and/or prospects of the Group.

33 Emerging markets such as the Russian Federation are subject to greater risks than more developed markets, and turmoil in any emerging market could adversely affect the value of investments in the Russian Federation Emerging markets such as the Russian Federation are subject to greater risk than more developed markets, including, in some cases, increased political, economic and legal risks. Generally, investment in emerging markets is only suitable for sophisticated investors who fully appreciate the significance of the risks involved in, and are familiar with, investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets such as the Russian Federation are subject to rapid change, and the information set out herein may become quickly outdated.

Moreover, financial turmoil in any emerging market country tends to affect adversely the value of investments in all emerging market countries as investors move their money to more stable, developed markets. As has happened in the past, financial problems or an increase in the perceived risks associated with investing in emerging economies could dampen foreign investment in the Russian Federation and adversely affect the economies of such countries. In addition, during such times, companies in emerging markets can face severe liquidity constraints as foreign funding sources are withdrawn. Thus, even if the Russian economy remains relatively stable, financial turmoil in another emerging market country could seriously disrupt the business of companies operating in the Russian Federation, as well as result in a decrease in the price of the Notes.

If the Russian Federation were to return to heavy and sustained inflation, the Group’s results of operations could be adversely affected According to Rosstat’s estimates, the consumer price index in the Russian Federation was approximately 19 per cent. in 2001, 15 per cent. in 2002, 12 per cent. in 2003 and 2004, 11 per cent. in 2005, 9 per cent. in 2006, 11.9 per cent. in 2007, 13.3 per cent. in 2008 and 8.8 per cent. in 2009. While the outlook for inflation in the Russian Federation in 2010 is for a further reduction, any return to heavy and sustained inflation could lead to market instability, new financial crises, reductions in consumer purchasing power and erosion of consumer confidence. Any one of these events could lead to decreased demand for the Group’s products and services that could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Russian political and Governmental instability could adversely affect the value of investments in the Russian Federation and the value of the Notes Since 1991, the Russian Federation has sought to transform itself from a state with a centrally-planned economy to a market-oriented economy. Political conditions in the Russian Federation were highly volatile in the 1990s, as evidenced by the frequent conflicts amongst executive, legislative and judicial authorities, which negatively impacted the Russian Federation’s business and investment climate. Former President Vladimir Putin generally increased governmental stability and presided over a period of high oil prices, which made the political situation in the Russian Federation appear more stable while the large oil revenues enhanced the image of the Russian economy.

The most recent State Duma elections, held in December 2007, and the City of Moscow Duma elections, held in October 2009, resulted in a further increase in the share of the aggregate vote received by the pro-governmental party, United Russia, mainly due to the influence of Mr. Putin. In March 2008, presidential elections were held in the Russian Federation, which resulted in Dmitry Medvedev being elected the President of the Russian Federation. In May 2008, Mr. Medvedev appointed Mr. Putin to the position of Prime Minister of the Russian Federation. While the Russian political system and the relationship between the President, the Russian Government and the Russian parliament currently appear to be relatively stable, albeit with a recurrence of anti-government protests in the context of the global economic crisis, the potential for political instability resulting from the worsening economic situation in the Russian Federation and deteriorating standards of living should not be underestimated.

Shifts in governmental policy and regulation in the Russian Federation are less predictable than in many Western democracies and could disrupt or reverse political, economic and regulatory reforms. Any significant change in the Russian Government’s programme of reform and a continued increase in the level of insolvencies in the Russian Federation could lead to a further deterioration in the Russian Federation’s

34 investment climate that might prevent the Group from obtain financing in the international capital markets or otherwise have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

Further, actions of the Russian legislative, executive and judicial authorities can affect the Russian securities market. In particular, the events surrounding tax claims brought by the Russian authorities against several major Russian and foreign companies have led to questions being raised regarding the progress of market and political reforms in the Russian Federation and have resulted in significant fluctuations in the market price of Russian securities and a negative impact on foreign direct and portfolio investment in the Russian economy. Any further similar actions by Russian authorities that negatively effect investor confidence in the Russian Federation’s business or legal environment could have a material adverse effect on the Russian securities market and prices of Russian securities or securities issued or backed by Russian entities, including the Notes.

In addition, Mr. Yuri Luzhkov’s appointment as Mayor of Moscow is due to end in July 2011 and it is not certain whether Mr. Luzhkov will remain as Mayor of Moscow after July 2011.

Further, ethnic, religious, historical and other divisions have, on occasion, given rise to tension and, in certain cases, military conflict and terrorist attacks in certain regions of the Russian Federation. Violence and attacks relating to regional conflicts have spread to other parts of the Russian Federation. Russian military and paramilitary forces have been engaged in the Chechen Republic in the recent past and continue to maintain a visible presence there. In August 2008, the Russian Federation and Georgia were involved in an armed conflict and the Russian stock exchanges experienced heightened volatility, significant overall declines in price and capital outflow following these events and the international capital markets temporarily closed to the Russian Federation.

The growth of violence in the Russian Federation could have significant political consequences, including the imposition of a state of emergency in some or all regions of the Russian Federation and thus could adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

If reform policies in the Russian Federation are not pursued or are pursued at a slower rate than is currently planned, the Group’s business and its ability to obtain financing could be harmed Under the previous President, Mr. Putin, the political and economic situation in the Russian Federation became more stable, thus creating better conditions for economic growth. While Mr. Putin’s successor, Mr. Medvedev appears to be following Mr. Putin’s lead in maintaining stability and promoting policies generally oriented towards the continuation of economic reforms, future changes in the Russian Government, major policy shifts or a lack of consensus among various influential political groups could disrupt or reverse economic and regulatory reforms. Any deterioration of the investment climate in the Russian Federation could restrict the Group’s ability to obtain future financing in international capital markets thereby limiting its growth strategy and the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects could be harmed if Russian Governmental instability recurs or if reform policies are reversed.

Conflict between federal and regional authorities and other conflicts could create an uncertain operating environment that would hinder the Group’s long-term planning ability and could materially adversely affect the value of investments in the Russian Federation The Russian Federation consists of 83 regions (including the City of Moscow), some of which exercise considerable autonomy over their internal affairs. In practice, the division of authority between federal and regional authorities remains uncertain and contested. Lack of consensus between the federal government and local or regional authorities often results in the enactment of conflicting legislation at various levels and may lead to further political instability. In particular, conflicting laws have been enacted in the areas of privatisation and licensing. Some of these laws and governmental and administrative decisions implementing them, as well as certain transactions consummated pursuant to them, have in the past been challenged in the Russian courts, and such challenges may occur in the future. This uncertainty could hinder the Group’s long- term planning efforts and may create uncertainties in its operating environment, which may prevent it from effectively and efficiently carrying out its business strategy. However, the recent amendments to Russian

35 legislation whereby heads of regions are nominated by the President of the Russian Federation and appointed by regional legislatures (instead of direct election by the population) are designed to minimise conflict between federal and regional authorities and secure stability across the Russian Federation.

Social instability could renew support for a centralised authority, nationalism or violence, and thus materially adversely affect the Group’s ability to conduct its business effectively Social instability in the Russian Federation, coupled with difficult economic conditions and the failure of the Russian Government and many private enterprises to pay full salaries on a regular basis and the failure of salaries and benefits generally to keep pace with the rapidly increasing cost of living, have led in the past, and could lead in the future, to labour and social unrest.

Such social unrest may have political, social and economic consequences, such as increased support for a renewal of centralised authority, increased nationalism, including restrictions on foreign involvement in the economy of the Russian Federation, and increased violence. Any of these could restrict the Group’s operations and materially adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Terrorism, crime and corruption could affect the Russian economy and disrupt the Group’s ability to conduct its business Terrorist activity inside and outside the Russian Federation has had a significant effect on the international and domestic financial and commodity markets. The most recent manifestation of terrorist acts in Moscow was the 29 March 2010 suicide bombings on the Moscow metro, which left 39 civilians dead and around 70 civilians wounded. Any future acts of terrorism in the Russian Federation or internationally could have an adverse effect on the financial and commodities markets and the global economy. As the Russian Federation produces and exports large amounts of crude oil and gas, any acts of terrorism causing disruptions of Russian oil and gas exports could negatively affect the Russian economy and, therefore, materially and adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Levels of organised criminal activity, particularly property crimes in large metropolitan centres, continue to be significant. In addition, the Russian and international press have reported high and increasing levels of official corruption in the Russian Federation and the former Soviet Union, including the bribing of officials for the purpose of initiating investigations by the Russian Government. Additionally, published reports indicate that a significant number of Russian media regularly publish biased articles in exchange for payment. Reportedly, in March 2005, a CBR database containing confidential information about all inter-bank cash transfers during the period from April 2003 to September 2004 was illegally offered for sale in the market by computer hackers. Such database included information on corporate and individual customers of various Russian banks and their transactions. The Group’s business, and the value of the Notes, could be materially adversely affected by illegal activities, corruption or by claims implicating the Group in illegal activities.

Further deterioration in the Russian Federation’s physical infrastructure could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business The Russian Federation’s physical infrastructure is generally in poor condition, which could disrupt normal business activity. The Russian Federation’s physical infrastructure largely dates back to Soviet times and has not been adequately funded and maintained over the past decades. Particularly affected are pipeline, rail and road networks, power generation and transmission, and communication systems. Further, electricity and heating shortages in some regions of the Russian Federation have seriously disrupted the economy, as have the extreme forest fires during the summer of 2010.

The Russian Government has launched a number of infrastructure modernisation programmes such as a large-scale reform of the electricity sector. However, there is uncertainty in the current economic environment as to the extent to which such programmes will be implemented successfully. Such reforms, if realised, are likely to result in increased charges and tariffs, but may fail to generate the anticipated capital investment needed to repair, maintain and improve these systems.

36 The Russian Government is actively considering plans to reorganise the Russian Federation’s rail and telephone systems. Any such reorganisation may result in increased charges and tariffs while failing to generate the anticipated capital investment needed to repair, maintain and improve these systems. Any failure to update and renew the Russian Federation’s physical infrastructure may harm the national economy, disrupt the transportation of goods and supplies, add costs to doing business in the Russian Federation and interrupt business operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Exchange rates, exchange controls and repatriation restrictions could adversely affect the value of investments in the Russian Federation and could materially adversely affect the Group’s ability to make payments under the Loan While the Rouble appreciated against the U.S. dollar in real terms each year between the 2001 and 2007, it experienced significant depreciation against the U.S. dollar in 2008 and in the beginning of 2009, largely as a result of the global economic crisis and the significant fall in prices of oil, gas and other key commodities that are principal generators of the Russian Federation’s export earnings. The Rouble to U.S. dollar exchange rate has fluctuated dramatically in 2008 and 2009, ranging from 23.13 per USD 1.00 as at 16 July 2008 to 36.43 per USD 1.00 as at 19 February 2009 and to 29.09 per USD 1.00 as at 23 October 2009 and 30.19 per USD 1.00 as at 1 August 2010.

The ability of the Russian Government and the CBR to prevent further fluctuation of the Rouble against the major currencies depends on many political and economic factors, including their ability to control inflation and the availability of foreign currency reserves and other factors outside their control.

Further fluctuation of the Rouble against the U.S. dollar and other major currencies could negatively affect the Group in a number of ways, including, among other things, by increasing the actual cost to the Group of financing its foreign currency denominated liabilities and by making it more difficult for Russian borrowers to service their foreign currency denominated loans.

Between August 2008 and August 2010, the Russian Federation’s foreign currency and gold reserves fell from USD 583.0 billion to USD 435.8 billion, although they have recovered to USD 475.8 billion as at 27 August 2010. Although the Russian Federation’s current foreign currency and gold reserves may be sufficient to sustain the domestic currency market in the short term, there can be no assurance that the currency market will not further deteriorate in the medium or long term due to the lack of foreign currency funding available in the global markets. The lack of growth of the Russian currency market in the medium or long-term may materially and adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Russian currency control regime could have an adverse effect on the Group’s business Notwithstanding significant recent liberalisation of the Russian currency control regime, the current Russian currency control laws and regulations still impose a number of limitations on currency operations, including banking transactions. In particular, foreign currency operations between Russian residents are generally prohibited (except for certain specified operations, including transactions between Russian authorised banks listed in the CBR Regulation No. 1425-U of 28 April 2004). Moreover, certain limitations not applicable to the Group apply to the Group’s clients, such as the requirement to notify the Russian tax authorities regarding opening of a bank account abroad. These currency control restrictions may restrict the Group’s and its clients’ operational flexibility, which could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

The Russian taxation system is relatively underdeveloped The Russian Government is continually reforming the tax system by redrafting the Russian Tax Code. To date, these changes have resulted in some improvement in the tax environment. As of 1 January 2009 the corporate profits tax rate was reduced to 20 per cent. For individuals who are tax residents in the Russian Federation the current personal income tax rate is 13 per cent. The general rate of value added tax (“VAT ”) is 18 per cent.

37 Russian tax laws, regulations and court practice are subject to frequent change, varying interpretations and inconsistent and selective enforcement. For example, under certain circumstances, the current three-year statute of limitations for the assessment of taxes pursuant to a tax audit can be significantly extended. In accordance with the Constitution of the Russian Federation, laws that introduce new taxes or worsen a taxpayer’s position cannot be applied retroactively. Nonetheless, there have been several instances when such laws have been introduced and applied retroactively.

Despite the Russian Government having taken steps to reduce the overall tax burden in recent years in line with its objectives, there is a risk that the Russian Federation will impose arbitrary or onerous taxes and penalties in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on each or any of the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and/or the trading price of the Notes. Additionally, taxes have been utilized as a tool for significant state intervention in certain key industries.

In addition to the usual tax burden imposed on Russian taxpayers, these conditions complicate tax planning and related business decisions. These uncertainties could expose the Group to significant fines and penalties and potentially severe enforcement measures despite the Group’s best efforts at compliance, result in a greater than expected tax burden, and have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects and/or the trading price of the Notes.

In October 2006, the Plenum of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation (the “Supreme Arbitration Court”) issued a ruling concerning judicial practice with respect to unjustified tax benefits. In this context, a tax benefit means a reduction in the amount of a tax liability resulting, in particular, from a reduction of the tax base, the receipt of a tax deduction or tax concession or the application of a lower tax rate, and the receipt of a right to a refund (offset) or reimbursement of tax. The ruling provides that where the true economic intent of operations is inconsistent with the manner in which they have been taken into account for tax purposes a tax benefit may be deemed to be unjustified. The same conclusion may apply when an operation lacks a reasonable economic or business rationale. As a result, a tax benefit cannot be regarded as a business objective in its own right. On the other hand, the fact that the same economic result might have been obtained with a lesser tax benefit accruing to the taxpayer does not constitute grounds for declaring a tax benefit to be unsubstantiated. Moreover, there are no rules for distinguishing between lawful tax optimisation and tax avoidance. The tax authorities have actively sought to apply this concept when challenging tax positions taken by taxpayers in court, and are anticipated to expand this trend in the future. Although the intention of this ruling was to combat tax law abuses, in practice there can be no assurance that the tax authorities will not seek to apply this concept in a broader sense than may have been intended by the Supreme Arbitration Court.

Furthermore, Ruling No. 64 of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation (the “Supreme Court”) “Concerning the Practical Application by Courts of Criminal Legislation Concerning Liability for Tax Crimes” dated 28 December 2006 is indicative of the trend to broaden application of criminal liability for tax violations.

Generally, taxpayers are subject to tax audits for a period of three calendar years immediately preceding the year in which the decision to conduct a tax audit is taken. The tax authorities are prohibited from carrying out repeat on-site tax audits in respect of the same taxes for a tax period which has already been audited (exceptions include where such audit is carried out in connection with the restructuring/liquidation of a taxpayer, or as a result of the filing by such taxpayer of an amended tax return decreasing the tax payable, or by a higher-level tax authority for the purpose of checking the activities of lower-level tax authorities). However, on 17 March 2009, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation issued a decision that precludes the Russian tax authorities from issuing a decision in the course of a subsequent tax audit for the same tax period as an initial audit if a court decision in respect of a tax dispute resulting from the initial tax audit has not been revised or discharged. However, currently, it is unclear how this decision will be applied and followed in practice by the Russian tax authorities.

The statute of limitations for the commission of a civil (not criminal) tax offence is also limited to three years from the date on which it was committed or from the date following the end of the tax period during which the tax offence was committed (depending on the nature of the tax offence). Nevertheless, based on current

38 judicial interpretation, there may be cases where the statute of limitations may be extended beyond three years.

Tax audits may result in additional costs to the Group if the relevant tax authorities conclude that the Group did not satisfy its tax obligations in any given year. Such audits may also impose additional burdens on the Group by diverting the attention of management resources. The outcome of these audits could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations or the trading price of the Notes.

Russian law does not provide for the possibility of group relief or fiscal unity. Consequently, the financial results of any Russian companies belonging to the Group are not consolidated for tax purposes (i.e., no offset of profits of one entity against losses of another entity in the Group is possible). The Russian Government in its Main Directions of Russian Tax Policy for 2010-2012 has proposed the introduction of consolidated tax reporting to enable the consolidation of the financial results of Russian taxpayers which are part of one group for corporate income tax purposes. While the Group is aware that a draft law to consolidate groups of taxpayers has been submitted to the State Duma for consideration, there is no clarity as to whether or not the Group will fall within the criteria of such groups of taxpayers. Further, it is impossible to predict whether or when such draft law will be enacted.

The above conditions create tax risks in the Russian Federation that are more significant than the tax risks typically found in countries with more developed taxation, legislative and judicial systems These tax risks impose additional burdens and costs on the Group’s operations, including management resources. Further, these risks and uncertainties complicate the Group’s tax planning and related business decisions, potentially exposing the Group to significant fines, penalties and enforcement measures, and could materially adversely affect the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and/or prospects.

Vaguely drafted Russian transfer pricing rules and lack of reliable pricing information may result in the Group’s prices being challenged by Russian tax authorities Transfer pricing legislation became effective in the Russian Federation on 1 January 1999. This legislation allows the tax authorities to make transfer pricing adjustments and impose additional tax liabilities in respect of all controlled transactions, provided that the transaction price differs from the market price by more than 20 per cent. Controlled transactions include transactions with related parties, barter transactions, foreign trade transactions and transactions with unrelated parties with significant price fluctuations (i.e., if the price of such transactions differs from the prices of similar transactions by more than 20 per cent. within a short period of time). Transfer pricing adjustments are also applicable to the trading of securities and derivatives. There has been no formal guidance (although some court practice is available) as to how these rules should be applied. Moreover, on 19 February 2010, the State Duma considered the draft law on transfer pricing at the first hearing. The draft law contemplates the introduction of substantial amendments to the transfer pricing legislation, which would result in stricter transfer pricing rules. If adopted in its current form, the draft law is expected to come into effect on 1 January 2011. If the tax authorities were to impose significant additional tax liabilities as a result of transfer pricing adjustments, it could have a material adverse impact on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Russian tax legislation is becoming more sophisticated. It is possible that new additional revenue raising measures might be introduced. Although it is unclear how any new measures would operate, the introduction of such measures may affect the Group’s overall tax efficiency and may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable. The Group cannot offer prospective investors any assurance that additional tax exposures will not arise. Additional tax exposures could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Weaknesses relating to the Russian legal system and Russian legislation could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects and could prevent investors from obtaining effective redress in court proceedings The Russian legal framework applicable to a market economy is still under development. Since 1991, Soviet law has been largely, but not entirely, replaced by a new legal regime as established by the 1993 Federal Constitution, the Civil Code, by other federal laws and by decrees, orders and regulations issued by the

39 President, the Russian Government and federal ministries, which are, in turn, complemented by regional and local rules and regulations. These legal norms, at times, overlap or contradict one another. Several fundamental Russian laws have only recently become effective. The recent nature of much of Russian law and the rapid evolution of the Russian legal system places the enforceability and underlying constitutionality of laws in doubt and results in ambiguities, inconsistencies and anomalies. In addition, Russian law may be considered to leave gaps in the regulatory infrastructure.

Among the risks of the current Russian legal system are:

• inconsistencies among federal laws, decrees, orders and regulations issued by the President, the Russian Government, federal ministries and regulatory authorities and regional and local laws, rules and regulations;

• limited judicial and administrative guidance on interpretations of Russian law;

• the relative inexperience of certain judges in interpreting legislation in accordance with new principles in Russian law, particularly business and corporate law;

• substantial gaps exist in the legal framework due to the delay or absence of implementing regulations for certain legislation;

• the possibility that certain judges may be susceptible to economic, political or nationalistic influences;

• a high degree of discretion on the part of governmental authorities; and

• bankruptcy procedures are not well developed.

All of these factors make judicial decisions in the Russian Federation difficult to predict and effective redress uncertain. Additionally, court claims are often used to further political aims. The Group may be subject to these claims and may not be able to receive a fair hearing. Additionally, court judgments are not always enforced or followed by law enforcement agencies. Any failure of the Group to obtain effective redress in court proceedings could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects.

Foreign judgments and arbitral awards may not be recognised in the Russian Federation Judgments rendered by a court in any jurisdiction outside the Russian Federation are likely to be recognised by courts in the Russian Federation only if:

• an international treaty providing for the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil cases exists between the Russian Federation and the country in which the judgment is rendered; and

• a federal law of the Russian Federation provides for the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments.

No such federal law has been passed and no such treaty exists between the Russian Federation and most Western jurisdictions for the reciprocal enforcement of foreign court judgments. Thus, enforcement of court judgments against the Group in the Russian Federation may be impossible. Also, the Loan provides that controversies, claims and causes of action brought by any party thereto against the Group may be settled by arbitration. The Russian Federation is a party to the New York Convention. However, it may be difficult to enforce arbitral awards in the Russian Federation due to a number of factors, including the lack of experience of Russian courts in international commercial transactions and their limited experience in the enforcement of foreign arbitral awards. Furthermore, there is a risk that, as the submission to arbitration in the Loan is at the option of only one of the contracting parties, a competent court in the Russian Federation may not recognise such a submission to arbitration or any arbitral award that is given by any such arbitration proceedings. The possible need to re-litigate in the Russian Federation a judgment obtained in a foreign court or an arbitral award not so recognised on the merits may significantly delay the enforcement of such judgment. Under Russian law, certain amounts may be payable by the claimant upon the initiation of any

40 action or proceeding in any Russian court. These amounts in many instances depend on the amount of the relevant claim. See “Enforceability of Judgments in the Russian Federation”.

Russian bankruptcy and insolvency law differs from comparable law in Western European countries and the United States and Russian bankruptcy law has been the object of limited court decisions and thus it is impossible to predict with certainty how claims by the Lender or the Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders against the Group would be resolved in the event of the Group’s bankruptcy Russian bankruptcy and insolvency law often differs from comparable laws in Western European countries or the United States and may be subject to varying interpretations. There is little precedent to predict how claims on behalf of the Noteholders against the Group would be resolved in case of its bankruptcy or insolvency. In addition, under Russian law, the Group’s obligations under the Loan Agreement may be subordinated to the following obligations:

• costs related to bankruptcy litigation;

• claims of retail depositors and of individuals who have other types of accounts with the Group;

• personal injury and “moral damage” obligations (claims in tort);

• severance pay, copyright royalty and employment-related obligations;

• secured obligations; and

• tax and other payment obligations to the Russian Government.

In the event of the Bank’s bankruptcy or insolvency, this subordination may substantially decrease the amounts available for repayment of the Loan and, as a result, the Notes.

Federal Law No. 127-FZ “On Insolvency (Bankruptcy)” (the “Insolvency Law”) entered into force in late 2002. The relevant amendments to Federal Law No. 40-FZ “On Insolvency (Bankruptcy) of Credit Organisations” dated 25 February 1999 (the “Bank Insolvency Law”) came into force in late 2004. These laws set forth the priority in which claims rank in insolvency. See “Overview of the Russian Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation”.

As a result of limited court practice, it is impossible to predict with certainty how claims by the Lender or the Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders against the Bank would be resolved in the event of the Bank’s bankruptcy and whether the Lender, the Trustee or the Noteholders would be able to recover sums owed by the Bank under the Loan Agreement in the event of the Bank’s insolvency. Specifically, in the course of the Bank’s bankruptcy proceedings, the creditors’ claims (including claims by the Lender or the Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders under the Loan Agreement) would need to be presented and satisfied only within the bankruptcy proceedings framework established by the mandatory provisions of bankruptcy legislation. The relevant provisions of bankruptcy legislation provide that the claims of the creditors of a bankrupt bank are fixed and satisfied (in the thus fixed amount) in Roubles (including claims denominated in foreign currency). For these purposes the foreign currency claims would be converted into Roubles at the rate established by the CBR as of the date of the revocation of the Bank’s banking licence (which is a prerequisite to initiating bankruptcy proceedings with respect to a Russian bank).

In the event of the insolvency of the Group, the existence of priority claims and secured claims may substantially decrease the amount of funds and assets that may be available for making payments under the Loan and, as a result, the Notes.

Developing securities laws and regulations in the Russian Federation may limit the Group’s ability to attract future investment and could subject the Group to fines or other enforcement measures despite its best efforts at compliance, which could cause the Group’s financial results to suffer and harm its business The regulation and supervision of the securities market, financial intermediaries and issuers are considerably less developed in the Russian Federation than in the United States and Western Europe. Disclosure and reporting requirements, antifraud safeguards, insider trading restrictions and fiduciary duties are relatively

41 new to the Russian Federation and are unfamiliar to most Russian companies and managers. In addition, Russian securities rules and regulations can change rapidly, which may adversely affect the Group’s ability to conduct securities-related transactions. While some important areas are subject to virtually no oversight, the regulatory requirements imposed on Russian issuers in other areas impose obligations on Russian issuers not found in other markets and result in delays in conducting securities offerings and in accessing the capital markets. It is often unclear whether certain regulations, decisions and letters issued by the various regulatory authorities apply to the Group. The Group may be subject to fines or other enforcement measures despite the Group’s best efforts at compliance, which could cause its financial results to suffer and harm its business.

Shareholder rights provisions under Russian law may impose additional costs on the Group, which could cause the Group’s financial results to suffer Under Russian law, the Bank’s shareholders who vote against or abstain from voting on some decisions have the right to sell their shares to the Group at market value. The obligation of the Bank to purchase shares in these circumstances, which is limited to 10 per cent. of the Group’s net assets calculated at the time the decision is taken according to RAR, could have an adverse effect on the Group’s cash flow and the Group’s ability to service its indebtedness. The decisions that trigger this right to sell shares include:

• a reorganisation;

• the approval by shareholders of a transaction involving property worth more than 50 per cent. of the gross book value of the Group’s assets calculated according to RAR, regardless of whether the transaction is actually consummated; and

• an amendment of the Group’s Charter (the “Charter”) in a manner that limits shareholder rights.

The Joint Stock Companies Law provides that shareholders who vote against or abstain from voting on a decision to place shares or convertible securities through a closed subscription (or private placement) have a pre-emptive right to acquire additional shares or convertible securities pro rata to the number of shares they own. This requirement may lead to further delays in completing offerings of equity and convertible debt securities and may lead to uncertainty with respect to sales of newly issued shares to strategic investors and affect the Group’s ability to raise funds in the equity capital markets in the future.

Rights of the Group’s shareholders and reporting and legal requirements The Group’s corporate affairs are governed by its Charter, its internal regulations, including the corporate governance code, laws governing banks and companies registered in the Russian Federation. See “Management” and “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation”. The rights of shareholders and the responsibilities of members of the Group’s Board of Directors and the Group’s Management Board under Russian law are different from, and may be subject to, certain requirements not generally applicable to companies organised in the United States, the United Kingdom or other jurisdictions. See “Management”.

A principal objective of the securities laws of the United States and the United Kingdom and certain other countries is to promote the full and fair disclosure of all material corporate information to the public. The rights of the Group’s shareholders, the responsibilities of the Group’s management, the Group’s public reporting and disclosure requirements and the regulations to which the Group is subject differ significantly from those applicable to comparable financial institutions in other jurisdictions. The Group’s charter and internal regulations, the regulations governing Russian banks and the laws governing companies established in the Russian Federation collectively regulate the Group’s corporate affairs. See “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation”. However, there is less publicly available or other information about the Group than the information regularly published by or about listed companies in the United States, the United Kingdom or certain other jurisdictions. The rights of shareholders and the responsibilities of members of the Group’s Board of Directors and the Group’s Management Board under Russian law are different from those applicable to corporations organised in other jurisdictions, and the Group may be subject to, requirements not generally applicable to corporations organised in other jurisdictions.

42 The Banking Law contains certain regular disclosure requirements, including the requirement to publish annual financial statements in accordance with RAR. Due to the fact that the Group’s systems and processes are tailored to Russian statutory requirements, it takes the Group longer than most Western companies to prepare its IFRS consolidated annual financial reports.

In accordance with the Banking Law, the Group must publish quarterly reports in accordance with RAR within 29 days and file such quarterly reports with the CBR within 30 days of the end of the relevant quarter. Such reports prepared in accordance with RAR include certain financial information, including a balance sheet, income statement and information on its assets, capital reserves and allowances for problematic loans. The Group began publishing annual IFRS financial statements starting from the year ended 31 December 2002.

In accordance with Russian legislation applicable to securities issuers, the Group must also file quarterly reports prepared in accordance with RAR with the FSFM within 30 days after the end of the relevant quarter. Such reports include information about the Group, its management, subsidiaries, affiliates, selected financial and business information (such as events of litigation and quarterly financial statements prepared in accordance with RAR) but do not contain all of the information contained in the Group Financial Statements.

Some transactions between the Group and interested parties or affiliated companies require the approval of disinterested directors or shareholders and the failure to obtain these approvals could materially adversely affect the Group’s business The Group is required by the Joint Stock Companies Law and the Charter to obtain the approval of disinterested directors or shareholders for transactions with “interested parties”. In general terms, “interested parties” include any of the Group’s shareholders that, together with their affiliates, own at least 20 per cent. of the voting shares of the Group, members of the Board of Directors and Management Board of the Group, the President of the Group or any entities in which these entities or individuals own a specified interest or occupy specified positions. Due to the technical requirements of Russian law, these same parties may be deemed to be “interested parties” also with respect to certain transactions between entities within the Group. From time to time, the Group and its subsidiaries engage in various transactions that require special approvals under Russian law, and the Group’s subsidiaries may engage in transactions that require “interested party” transaction approvals in accordance with Russian law. Failure to obtain the necessary “interested party” transaction approvals could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business results of operations, financial conditions and/or prospects.

In addition, the concept of “interested parties” is defined by reference to the concepts of “affiliated persons”, “beneficiaries” and “group of persons” under Russian law, which are subject to different interpretations. Moreover, the provisions of Russian law defining which transactions must be approved as “interested party” transactions are subject to different interpretations. The Group cannot be certain that its application of these concepts will not be subject to challenge. Any such challenge could result in the invalidation of transactions that are important to the Group’s business.

Selective, unlawful or arbitrary action by the regulatory authorities may have a material adverse affect on the Group’s business and the value of an investment in the Notes State authorities have a high degree of discretion in the Russian Federation and at times exercise their discretion arbitrarily, without hearing or prior notice, and sometimes in a manner that is contrary to law. Moreover, the state also has the power in certain circumstances, by regulation or act, to interfere with the performance of, nullify or terminate contracts. Unlawful or arbitrary actions have included unscheduled inspections by regulators, suspension or withdrawal of licences and permissions, unexpected tax audits, criminal prosecutions and civil actions.

In the past, Russian authorities have prosecuted some Russian companies, their senior managers and their shareholders on tax evasion and related charges, in some cases for allegedly political reasons. Federal and local government entities have also used common defects in matters surrounding the documentation of financing activities as pretexts for court claims and other demands to invalidate such activities and/or to void

43 transactions, often for political purposes. Such state action, unlawful or arbitrary, if directed at the Group, could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Expropriation or nationalisation The Russian Government has enacted legislation to protect property against expropriation and nationalisation. Furthermore, in the event that the Group’s property is expropriated or nationalised, legislation provides for fair compensation to be paid to the Group. However, there can be no certainty that such protections will be enforced. This uncertainty is due to several factors, including the lack of an independent judicial system and of sufficient mechanisms to enforce judgments and due to corruption among Russian Government officials.

The concept of property rights is not well developed in the Russian Federation and there is limited experience in enforcing legislation enacted to protect private property against nationalisation and expropriation. As a result, the Group may not be able to obtain proper redress in the courts and may not receive adequate compensation if, in the future, the Russian Government decides to nationalise or expropriate some or all of the Group’s assets. The expropriation or nationalisation of any of the Group’s or its subsidiaries’ assets without fair compensation may have a material adverse effect on the Group’s business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Information that the Bank has obtained from the Russian Government and other sources may be incomplete, unreliable or inaccurate The Bank has extracted substantially all of the information contained in this Prospectus concerning the Russian banking market and its competitors, which may include estimates or approximations, from publicly available information, including press releases and public filings made under various securities laws. The Bank has relied on the accuracy of such information without carrying out any independent verification. In addition, some of the information contained in this Prospectus has been extracted from official data published by Russian Government agencies and the CBR.

The official data published by the Russian Government may be less complete and less reliable than similar data in the United States and Western Europe. Official statistics may also be compiled on a different basis than that used in Western countries. When reading this Prospectus, prospective investors should be aware that the Russian data and statistics that the Group has included could be incomplete or inaccurate. In addition, the Group has relied, without independent verification, on some publicly available information. This includes press releases and information from various private publications, some or all of which could be based on estimates or unreliable sources.

Risks Related to the Loan and the Notes Interest payments on the Loan may be subject to withholding tax or other taxes Based on the professional advice it has received, the Bank believes that interest payments to the Issuer on the Loan will not be subject to withholding under the terms of the double tax treaty between the Russian Federation and Ireland. However, if the withholding tax is not reduced or eliminated pursuant to the terms of an applicable double tax treaty, interest payments on borrowed funds made by a Russian entity to a non- resident are subject to Russian withholding tax at a rate of 20 per cent. There can be no assurance that such an exemption from withholding tax based on the double tax treaty between the Russian Federation and Ireland will be available.

In particular, there is a risk that the Russian tax authorities may disallow application of the double taxation treaty between the Russian Federation and Ireland if they do not view the Issuer as a beneficial owner, and, instead, look at the tax residence of the Noteholders (see “Taxation – Taxation of the Notes – Non-resident Noteholders”) Moreover, in 2007 the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation expressed an opinion that for the purposes of recognising an entity or a person as actual recipient of income, this entity or person shall be the beneficial owner of such income and, following international double tax treaty practice, shall determine the ‘economic fate’ of this income. Taking into account the above position of the Russian Ministry of Finance, the tax authorities may conclude that the Issuer does not determine the future ‘economic fate’ of

44 the received income in terms of the Tax Treaty application, since it would be obliged to pass this income to meet its obligations in respect of the Notes and, consequently, would not be ‘actual recipient of income’. Moreover, it may be noted that the President of the Russian Federation in his budget message of 25 May 2009 expressed a goal of introducing legal mechanisms to resist the use of international double tax treaties for the purpose of minimizing taxes where the ultimate beneficiaries are not residents of the country being a party to the relevant double tax treaty. In December 2009, it was reported that the Ministry of Finance had proposed a draft law to amend the Tax Code. This draft law is proposed to limit the treaty benefits to “actual recipients of income”. The law does not define the term “actual recipient of income” and neither does the Tax Code. It is also unclear whether this restriction is supposed to target recipients who do not have beneficial ownership of income that they receive (e.g., agents, conduit companies, etc.) or also recipients whose ultimate shareholders are not tax residents in the relevant treaty country. The official website of the State Duma does not list this draft law among those currently scheduled for readings. If and when it is introduced, such changes could have a material impact on the tax treatment of the transactions structured as set forth in the Prospectus.

Furthermore, the Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation on entering into international double tax treaties and the prevention of tax evasion No. 84 dated 24 February 2010, have introduced the new Model Convention on avoidance of double taxation and prevention of tax evasion between the Russian Federation and the foreign states. It is intended that it will be used by the Russian authorities as a guideline when negotiating new double tax treaties and/or renegotiating existing treaties and it is indicative of a trend towards restricting the use of double tax treaties for the purpose of minimising taxes. In particular, the new Model Convention contains a new paragraph named “Restriction of benefits” that limits the use of treaty benefits by persons or entities (i) if, in the opinion of the competent authorities of the states parties (including the Russian tax authorities), such usage would constitute an abuse of the purposes of the treaty, or (ii) that are 50 per cent. or more owned by an entity that is not resident in either of the states party to the relevant treaty; and specifies the provisions concerning the assistance in tax collection. However, it is unclear at the moment whether the provisions of this Resolution will be implemented with existing treaty partners by protocols or by entering into new treaties, or whether the new initiative will be implemented at all though it was announced recently that relevant protocol to the Double Tax Treaty with the Republic of Cyprus initialled earlier is planned to be ratified in October 2010.

Upon any enforcement by the Trustee of the security granted to it by the Issuer by way of the Security Interests in the Trust Deed, payments under the Loan (other than in respect of Reserved Rights) would be required to be made to, or to the order of, the Trustee. Under Russian tax law, payments of interest and other similar payments made by the Group to the Trustee will in general be subject to Russian withholding tax at a rate of 20 per cent. It is not expected that the Trustee will, or will be able to, claim a withholding tax exemption under any double tax treaty. The Group will be required to gross-up the amount of interest in such circumstances. It may be impossible for Noteholders to claim a refund of such tax withheld.

It is currently unclear whether the relevant provisions of the Loan Agreement obliging the Group to gross- up payments will be enforceable in the Russian Federation. If a Russian court does not rule in favour of the Issuer, the Trustee and Noteholders, there is a risk that gross-up for withholding tax will not take place and that payment made by the Group under the Loan will be reduced by Russian withholding tax withheld by the Group at the maximum rate of 20 per cent., (if relevant requirements of the double tax treaty between the Russian Federation and Ireland for tax exemptions or tax rate reductions are not met). Any failure by the Group to comply with gross up obligations under the Loan would constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement. See “Taxation”.

Tax might be withheld on dispositions of the Notes in the Russian Federation, reducing their value If a non-resident Noteholder sells Notes to a Russian resident, there is a risk that the proceeds from such disposal may be subject to Russian withholding tax on any gain realised, subject to any available treaty relief. There can be no assurances that advance treaty relief would be granted and obtaining a refund can be very difficult, if not impossible.

Where proceeds from disposal of the Notes are received from a source within the Russian Federation by an individual non-resident Noteholder, personal income tax could be charged at a rate of 30 per cent., on the

45 gain from such disposal (the gain generally being calculated as the gross proceeds, from such disposal less any available cost deduction which includes the purchase price of the Notes, provided that all supporting documents are available). The tax law is unclear as to whether the tax should be withheld from proceeds or paid by an individual non-resident holder based on a personal tax return. The personal income tax may be reduced or eliminated pursuant to the provisions of any applicable tax treaty. However, advance relief is available and refunds may only be obtained following the submission of a personal income tax return.

Proceeds from the sale of Notes received by non-resident Noteholders that are legal entities or organisations should not be subject to Russian taxation. However, it is not clear how the tax authorities will, in practice, tax a portion of proceeds allocable to accrued interest, which potentially may be subject to 20 per cent., withholding tax. Withholding tax on interest may be reduced or eliminated in accordance with the provisions of an applicable double taxation treaty. The imposition or potential imposition of this withholding tax could materially adversely affect the value of the Notes. See “Taxation”.

Risks Relating to an Investment in the Notes Tax treaty procedures The Russian Tax Code does not require that a non resident issuer obtain tax treaty clearance from Russian tax authorities prior to receiving interest income at a reduced rate of withholding tax at source under an applicable tax treaty. However, in connection with a tax audit, the Russian tax authorities may still dispute the non resident’s eligibility for double tax treaty relief.

A non resident issuer seeking to obtain a reduced rate of Russian withholding tax at source under an income tax treaty must provide the Group confirmation of the issuer’s tax treaty residence that is certified by the competent authorities of Ireland in advance of the Group’s payment of interest. The residence confirmation needs to be reviewed on an annual basis and certified by the relevant authority. The residence confirmation may need to bear an apostille and to be translated into Russian.

In the event the exemption from withholding tax ceases to be available, it is currently unclear whether the provisions obliging the Group to gross up payments for such withholding tax would be enforceable in the Russian Federation. If a Russian court does not rule in favour of the Issuer or the Trustee and Noteholders, there is a risk that the gross up for withholding tax would not take place and that payment made by the Group under the Loan Agreement would be reduced by Russian income tax withheld by the Group at a rate of 20 per cent., (or potentially 30 per cent., in respect of individual Noteholders). See generally “Taxation – the Russian Federation – Taxation of the Notes”. In such event the issuer may apply for a refund within three years from the end of the tax period in which the income was paid. To process a claim of a refund the Russian tax authorities require:

• An apostilled confirmation of the tax treaty residence of the non resident at the time the income was paid;

• An application for refund of the tax withheld in a format provided by the Russian tax authorities (Form 10I2DT for interest); and

• Copies of the relevant contracts and payment documents confirming the payment of the tax withheld to the Russian Federation state budget.

The refund of the tax withheld should be granted within one month of receipt of the application for the refund and the relevant documents by the Russian tax authorities. However, procedures for processing such claims have not been clearly established and there is significant uncertainty regarding the availability and timing of such refunds. The Russian tax authorities may, in practice, require a wide variety of documentation confirming the right to benefits under a double tax treaty. Such documentation, in practice, may not be explicitly required by the Russian Tax Code.

46 Risks Relating to the Issuer The Issuer is subject to risks, including the location of its centre of main interest (“COMI”), the appointment of examiners and the claims of preferred creditors under Irish law.

COMI The Issuer has its registered office in Ireland. As a result, there is a rebuttable presumption that its COMI is in Ireland and consequently that any main insolvency proceedings applicable to it would be governed by Irish law. In the decision by the European Court of Justice (“ECJ”) in relation to Eurofood IFSC Limited, the ECJ restated the presumption in Council Regulation (EC) No. 1346/2000 of 29 May 2000 on Insolvency Proceedings that the place of a company’s registered office is presumed to be the company’s COMI and stated that the presumption can only be rebutted if “factors which are both objective and ascertainable by third parties enable it to be established that an actual situation exists which is different from that which locating it at the registered office is deemed to reflect”. As the Issuer has its registered office in Ireland, has Irish directors, is registered for tax in Ireland and has an Irish corporate services provider, the Issuer does not believe that factors exist that would rebut this presumption, although this would ultimately be a matter for the relevant court to decide, based on the circumstances existing at the time when it is asked to make that decision. If the Issuer’s COMI is not in Ireland, and is held to be in a different jurisdiction within the European Union, main insolvency proceedings may not be opened in Ireland.

Examinership Examinership is a court procedure available under the Irish Companies (Amendment) Act 1990, as amended (the “1990 Act”) to facilitate the survival of Irish companies in financial difficulties.

The Issuer, the directors of the Issuer, a contingent, prospective or actual creditor of the Issuer, or shareholders of the Issuer holding, at the date of presentation of the petition, not less than one-tenth of the voting share capital of the Issuer are each entitled to petition the court for the appointment of an examiner. The examiner, once appointed, has the power to halt, prevent or rectify acts or omissions, by or on behalf of the company after his appointment and, in certain circumstances a negative pledge given by the company prior to his appointment will not be binding on the company. Furthermore, where proposals for a scheme of arrangement are to be formulated, the company may, subject to the approval of the court, affirm or repudiate any contract under which some element of performance other than the payment remains to be rendered both by the company and the other contracting party or parties.

During the period of protection, the examiner will compile proposals for a compromise or scheme of arrangement to assist in the survival of the company or the whole or any part of its undertaking as a going concern. A scheme of arrangement may be approved by the Irish High Court when a minimum of one class of creditors, whose interests are impaired under the proposals, has (i) voted in favour of the proposals and (ii) the Irish High Court is satisfied that such proposals are fair and equitable in relation to any class of members or creditors who have not accepted the proposals and (iii) whose interests would be impaired by implementation of the scheme of arrangement and the proposals are not unfairly prejudicial to any interested party.

The fact that the Issuer is a special purpose entity and that all its liabilities are of a limited recourse nature means that it is unlikely that an examiner would be appointed to the Issuer.

If, however, for any reason, an examiner were appointed while any amounts due by the Issuer under the Notes were unpaid, the primary risks to the holders of Notes would be as follows: (a) the Trustee, acting on behalf of Noteholders, would not be able to enforce rights against the Issuer during the period of examinership; and

(b) a scheme of arrangement may be approved involving the writing down of the debt due by the Issuer to the Noteholders irrespective of the Noteholders’ views.

47 Preferred Creditors If the Issuer becomes subject to an insolvency proceeding and the Issuer has obligations to creditors that are treated under Irish law as creditors that are senior relative to the Noteholders, the Noteholders may suffer losses as a result of their subordinated status during such insolvency proceedings. In particular:

(i) under the terms of the Trust Deed, the Notes will be secured in favour of the Trustee for the benefit of itself and the Noteholders by security over the Loan Agreement and sums held in the related account with the Principal Paying Agent. Under Irish law, the claims of creditors holding fixed charges may rank behind other creditors (namely fees, costs and expenses of any examiner appointed and certain capital gains tax liabilities) and, in the case of fixed charges over book debts, may rank behind claims of the Irish Revenue Commissioners for PAYE and VAT;

(ii) under Irish law, for a charge to be characterised as a fixed charge, the charge holder is required to exercise the requisite level of control over the assets purported to be charged and the proceeds of such assets including any bank account into which such proceeds are paid. There is a risk therefore that even a charge which purports to be taken as a fixed charge, such as the Charge, may take effect as a floating charge if a court deems that the requisite level of control was not exercised; and

(iii) in an insolvency of the Issuer, the claims of certain other creditors (including the Irish Revenue Commissioners for certain unpaid taxes), as well as those of creditors mentioned above, will rank in priority to claims of unsecured creditors and claims of creditors holding floating charges.

48 USE OF PROCEEDS

An amount equal to the gross proceeds of the issue of the Notes will be used for the sole purpose of financing the Loan to the Bank. The proceeds of the Loan will be used by the Bank for general corporate purposes.

53 Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rate Data The following tables set forth the consolidated average balances of assets and liabilities of the Group for the periods indicated and, for interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, set forth the amount of interest income or expense and the average rate of such interest for such assets and liabilities. For the purposes of these tables, the consolidated average balances of assets and liabilities represent the average of the opening and closing balances for each period. The results of this analysis would likely be different if alternative averaging balance methods were used. For example, where the opening and closing balances for an interest earning asset are relatively low compared with the actual average daily balances for the period, the average interest rate will be higher than if the average was calculated on the basis of average daily balances. Average interest rates are distinct from the effective interest rates presented in the financial statements.

54 5 The difference between the average annual interest rate on interest earning assets and the average annual interest rate on interest bearing liabilities. Average rate on interest earning assets was calculated as total interest income divided by interest-earning assets representing the average of the opening and closing balances for the respective year. Average rate on interest-bearing liabilities was calculated as total interest expense divided by interest bearing liabilities representing the average of the opening and closing balances for the respective period. 6 Net interest income before provision for loan impairment for the period expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets representing the average of the opening and closing balances for the respective period.

Net Changes in Interest Income and Expense Volume and Rate Analysis The following tables provide a comparative analysis of net changes in interest earned and interest paid by reference to changes in average volume and rates for the periods indicated. Net changes in net interest income are attributed to either changes in average balances (volume change) or changes in average rates (rate change) for earning assets and sources of funds on which interest is received or paid. Volume change is calculated as the change in volume multiplied by the previous rate, while rate change is the change in rate multiplied by the previous volume. The rate/volume change (change in rate multiplied by change in volume) is allocated between volume change and rate change at the ratio each component bears to the absolute value of their total. Average balances represent the average of the opening and closing balances for the respective period.

59 OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW OF THE GROUP

Investors should read the following discussion and analysis of the Group’s financial condition and results of operations as at 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007 and for the years then ended in conjunction with the Group Financial Statements as set out in this Prospectus. For a discussion of the Group’s critical accounting policies, see “– Critical Accounting Policies” below and Note 4 to the Group Financial Statements. Investors should read the entire Accountants’ Reports and not merely rely on the information contained in this section. Some of the information in the following discussion and analysis and elsewhere in this Prospectus includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Forward – Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” for a discussion of important factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from the figures described in the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus.

OVERVIEW Principal activities The Group is one of the largest commercial and retail banks in the Russian Federation, as measured by net assets, capital, loan portfolio and volume of retail client deposits. The Group offers a wide range of banking services, including corporate, SME and retail lending, deposit, payment and account services, foreign exchange and foreign trade operations, cash handling services, operations with precious metals, asset management and private banking, investment banking, securities trading, custody services and other ancillary services to retail clients and to commercial and governmental entities.

The Group’s consolidated net profit for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 89.72 per cent. to RUB 717.0 million from RUB 6,977.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2008, as a result of the deterioration in economic conditions described below (see “– Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Russia’s economic condition.”) and the Group’s response to such deterioration (see “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Loan Portfolio – Provisions for Impairment.”).

The Group has a large and diverse client base, servicing over 105,000 corporate and governmental clients and 9.7 million retail clients, as at 1 May 2010. As at 1 May 2010, the Bank operated 134 offices and sub-offices in all administrative districts of Moscow and in the Moscow region. In addition, the Group had 474 desks in post offices in Moscow and the Moscow region as at 31 December 2009, which distribute the Group’s retail products. As at 1 May 2010, the Group operated 68 regional branches which supervised a further 69 full-service sub-branches and 113 sub-branches providing retail services and eight cash offices located in the territory of the Russian Federation. As at 1 May 2010, the Group had a presence in 60 regions of the Russian Federation, including major cities across the Russian Federation from St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad in the North West to Vladivostok and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in the Far East. The regional presence of the Group is enhanced through co-operation with local banks, such as OAO AKB “Zarechye” (Kazan, Republic of Tatarstan) in which the Group holds a minority interest, and through its ownership of Bezhitsa Bank, in which the Group increased its shareholding to 100 per cent. on 29 January 2010. As at the same date, the Group owned controlling stakes in five foreign banks: “Bank Moscow-Minsk” in Minsk, Republic of Belarus, AS “Latvijas Biznesa banka” in Riga, Republic of Latvia, AS “Eesti Krediidipank” in Tallinn, Republic of Estonia, BM Bank LLC Ukraine in Kiev, Republic of Ukraine and Bank of Moscow j.s.c. – Belgrade in Belgrade, Republic of Serbia. For a more detailed description of the business activities of the Group, see “Business – Overview”.

Affiliation with the City of Moscow The Group derives a portion of its business from its affiliation with the City of Moscow. Since the establishment of the Bank in 1995, the City of Moscow, directly through the City of Moscow Property Department (prior to 1998, represented by the Moscow Property Fund and the City of Moscow Property Management Committee) and later directly and indirectly through OJSC “Metropolitan Insurance Group” together with its subsidiaries, has remained the principal shareholder of the Group. The Group’s business includes servicing municipal budget funds of the City of Moscow, financing some projects of the City of Moscow and lending to and maintaining accounts of companies affiliated with the City of Moscow. Loans to enterprises owned by the Government of the City of Moscow’s related-party lending, as defined in the

60 Group Financial Statements, which includes lending to associated companies and municipal entities of the City of Moscow, accounted for 2.4 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009, compared with 1.4 per cent. and 1.2 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively. For a more detailed description of the Group’s funding through the City of Moscow, see “– Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Liabilities – Customer Accounts.” For a description of the Group’s shareholding structure, see “– Shareholding”. For a discussion of risks associated with the Group’s affiliation with the City of Moscow, see “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry”.

FACTORS AFFECTING THE GROUP’S RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Russia’s economic condition As at 31 December 2009, over 90 per cent. of the Group’s assets are located in the Russian Federation. As a result, the Group is substantially affected by Russian economic conditions.

Until 2008, the Russian Federation had experienced several consecutive years of increasing domestic demand and market prices for key export commodities, particularly oil, gas and metals, which led to economic growth and an increase in foreign currency reserves. The global financial crisis had a significant adverse effect on the Russian economy, beginning in the third quarter of 2008. According to Rosstat, in 2009 as compared to 2008, industrial production had decreased by 9.3 per cent., exports had decreased by 35.7 per cent., and the number of officially registered unemployed individuals increased by 48.9 per cent. However, according to Rosstat, during the first quarter of 2010 industrial production grew by 5.8 per cent. as compared to the same period in 2009. According to Rosstat, exports in the first quarter of 2010 had increased by 61.1 per cent., compared to the same period in 2009. Russian Ministry of Economic Development estimates that the Russian Federation’s real GDP will grow by not less than 4 per cent. in 2010. According to Rosstat, the number of officially registered unemployed individuals in the first quarter of 2010 had decreased by 13.4 per cent. and in the second quarter of 2010 had decreased by 8.9 per cent., compared to the same period in 2009.

The stability of the Rouble was also affected by the onset of the crisis. According to CBR, the nominal exchange rate of the Rouble against the U.S. Dollar in December 2009 as compared to 2008, decreased by 21.7 per cent., while the real U.S. Dollar/Rouble exchange rate decreased by 12.2 per cent. during the same period. The devaluation of the Rouble at the start of 2009 led to significantly decreased demand for loans in foreign currencies for both corporate and retail clients. The nominal exchange rate of the Rouble against the U.S. Dollar in the first quarter of 2010 increased by 13.4 per cent., compared to the same period in 2009 and the real exchange rate of the Rouble against the U.S. Dollar in the first quarter of 2010 increased by 18.9 per cent., compared to the same period in 2009. As of October 2008, the RTS stock index had declined over 70.0 per cent. from its highest levels, reached in May 2008 and the IFX–Cbonds bond index had declined about 13.8 per cent. from its highest levels, reached in June 2008. Both the RTS stock index and the IFX–Cbonds bond index have recovered substantially since October 2008. By the end of July 2010, the RTS stock index and the IFX-Cbonds bond index had recovered by 220.4. per cent. and 47.0 per cent., respectively, from their lowest levels.

In the third and fourth quarter of 2008, GDP of the Russian Federation was negative 0.73 per cent. and 1.23 per cent. respectively. In an effort to stabilise the worsening economic situation and increasingly volatile market, the Russian Ministry of Finance and the CBR announced and implemented measures, including temporarily suspending stock and currency trading in the Russian Federation and decreasing mandatory reserves intended to support the liquidity and solvency of Russian banks and to increase the availability of credit to businesses, in order to restore investor confidence and support the medium-term economic growth of the Russian economy. For a description of these measures, see “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation-Measures to support the liquidity of the Russian banking system.” See also “Risk Factors – A significant part of the Group’s funding is based on deposits that can be withdrawn on demand and the Group has liquidity risks which may be exacerbated by the current instability of the global and Russian economies and banking sectors.” On 7 November 2008, the Government approved an anti-crisis plan. In the second half of 2008, the Government took steps to buy out shares on the equity market and allocated funds to refinance foreign loans of large Russian enterprises and banks maturing in

61 2009. The Government support included price preferences granted to Russian companies under state and municipal procurement programs, expanded subsidising of interest rates on loans for technological modernisation of production and a program of state guarantees for loans to enterprises. These guarantees were to be issued in addition to the collateral that the enterprises provided or were to provide to the banks. In addition, a state program was developed to help those individuals with mortgage loans that have lost their jobs or a substantial part of income as a result of the crisis. During 2009, the CBR gradually increased mandatory reserve requirements, although these are still below pre-crisis levels. The CBR expanded the list of assets accepted as collateral on CBR loans, provided loans to commercial banks through collateral-free auctions, lowered the refinancing rate from 13 per cent. to 7.75 per cent. per annum as at 1 June 2010 and it is still at this level as of the date of this Prospectus and signed agreements on partial compensation of losses incurred on the interbank market with a number of major Russian banks, including the Bank of Moscow, to encourage the operations on the interbank market. See “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation.” Furthermore, on 1 January 2009, the corporate income tax rate was cut from 24 per cent. to 20 per cent. and tax prepayment procedure was cancelled and income tax rates for small businesses using simplified taxation procedures were reduced from 15 per cent. to 5 per cent. of the profit amount.

In April 2009, the Russian Minister of Finance warned of the possible second wave of the financial and economic crisis in the Russian Federation that could significantly affect Russian banks. On 1 December 2009 the CBR estimated that the amount of overdue loans would reach approximately 7 per cent. of all loans by the end of 2009 but estimated that, by the end of 2010, the amount of overdue loans in the Russian Federation would not exceed 15 per cent. of all loans. The Group has significantly increased its loan provisioning for the year ended 31 December 2009 and the year ended 31 December 2008, as compared to prior periods. See “– Provisions for Impairments” below. Although the Group reviewed its risk management strategies and implemented an internal stress testing programme in light of the deteriorating economic conditions, its risk management strategies may not protect it from substantially increased levels of non-performing loans in its portfolio. For more information, see “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Loan Portfolio – Provisions for Impairment.” See also “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Bank’s Business and Industry – A decline in the value or illiquidity of the collateral securing the Group’s loans may materially adversely affect the Group’s loan portfolio and it may be difficult for the Group to enforce collateral or other security under Russian law”.

As the Russian banking sector is particularly sensitive to economic conditions in the Russian Federation and fluctuations in the value of the Rouble, the global financial crisis has had a significant adverse effect on the liquidity and, in many cases, solvency of Russian banks. See “ – Impact of International Financial Markets”. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry – Turmoil in global credit markets has already adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the Russian economy, the Russian banking industry in general and the Group in particular”. Economic conditions in the Russian Federation continue to limit the volume of activity in the financial markets. Market quotations may not reflect the values of financial instruments, which would be determined in an active market, on transactions on an arm’s-length basis between knowledgeable and willing counterparties. The Group has therefore used the best available information to adjust market quotations to reflect their best estimate of fair values, where considered necessary. It should be noted that the Bank’s best estimate of fair values may differ significantly if the Group were actually to dispose of these financial instruments. See “– Combined Results of Operations for the years 2009, 2008 and 2007 – Provision for impairment” and “Risk Factors – Risks relating to the Russian Federation and the City of Moscow – The continuation of turmoil in global credit markets may continue to adversely affect Russia’s economy”. In addition, the need for further developments in the bankruptcy laws, the absence of formalised procedures for the registration and enforcement of certain categories of collateral, and other legal and fiscal impediments also contribute to difficulties experienced by banks currently operating in the Russian Federation. The Bank believes the stability of the Russian economy will be significantly affected by the Russian Government’s continued implementation of administrative, legal and economic reforms.

62 Impact of international financial markets The recent negative conditions in the international financial markets have increased pressures on economies worldwide. The international financial crisis has resulted, among other things, in the global liquidity crisis which led to a contraction of the international and domestic capital markets, lower liquidity levels across the Russian banking sector and significant volatility in the domestic and foreign equity markets. The uncertainties in the global financial market have also led to bank failures and bank rescues in the United States of America, Western Europe, the Russian Federation and other countries. See “– Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry – Turmoil in global credit markets has already adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, the Russian economy, the Russian banking industry in general and the Group in particular.” See “– Recent Developments” for more information on the Bank’s ratings. While the majority of the Group’s assets and customers are in the Russian Federation (see “– Russia’s economic condition” above), the Group is also impacted by the international financial markets. The global liquidity crisis resulted in significantly higher lending rates and had an impact on the Group’s funding costs and its mix of funding. In addition, the decrease in liquidity both in the Russian Federation and globally has had a negative impact on the Group’s ability to borrow funds at competitive or reasonable rates. Global market conditions and increased trading volatility have also had an impact on the Group’s securities portfolio. See “– Fluctuations in the value of financial assets” below. Certain borrowers and debtors of the Group have also been affected by the financial crisis, which has in turn impacted their ability to meet their financial obligations to the Group. To the extent that information is available, management has adequately reflected revised estimates of expected future cash flows in their impairment assessments.

Interest rate environment and funding Changes in interest rates affect the Group’s operations. For the years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007 (the “periods under review”), movements in short and long-term interest rates have affected both the Group’s interest income and interest expense, as well as the Group’s level of gains and losses on its securities portfolio. For the periods under review, the Group generated a substantial majority of its interest income from loans to customers. The Group’s interest income from loans to customers was 87.4 per cent. of the Group’s total interest income for the year ended 31 December 2009 compared to 83.6 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2008. For the periods under review, the Group generated a substantial majority of its interest expense from current accounts and term deposits of customers. The Group’s interest expense from current accounts and term deposits to customers was 62.7 per cent. of the Group’s total interest expense for the year ended 31 December 2009 compared to 66.0 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2008. The average annual interest rate on loans to customers increased from 10.4 per cent. in 2007 to 11.7 per cent. in 2008, and increased to 13.1 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2009, with the increase primarily resulting from the global decrease in liquidity and the increasing interest rate environment in the Russian Federation, and this allowed the Group and other Russian banks to charge higher interest on their loans to customers. During the same period, average interest rates on average balances on all interest earning assets increased from 10.4 per cent. in 2007 to 11.5 per cent. in 2008 and increased to 12.0 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2009. See “Selected Consolidated Financial Information – Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rate Data.” The average interest rate paid by the Group on customer accounts and term deposits of customers, which constituted the principal source of interest expense and funding for the Group, increased from 4.5 per cent. in 2007 to 5.8 per cent. in 2008, and to 7.7 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2009. This increase for the year ended 31 December 2009 resulted primarily from the Group’s need to charge higher interest rates in part due to the temporary withdrawal from the Russian market of international bank competitors, which led to decreases in liquidity in the market. The increase from 2007 to 2008 was due largely to increased competition for customer deposits from other banks and an increase in the market interest rates in the third quarter of 2008. The average interest rates on all interest bearing liabilities of the Group increased from 5.0 per cent. in 2007, to 5.6 per cent. in 2008, but increased significantly to 7.1 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2009. See “Selected Consolidated Financial Information – Average Balance Sheet and Interest Rate Data.”

63 Interest rates can be affected by factors such as rates set by the CBR, inflation, competition among banks and general macroeconomic conditions. Generally, interest rates paid on customer deposits can adjust more quickly than interest rates on the Group’s loan portfolio, and as a result rapid increases in interest rates can negatively affect the Group’s net interest income by reducing the net interest spreads. This is reflected in the decline in the Group’s net interest spread (calculated as the difference between the average annual interest rate on interest earning assets and the average annual interest rate on interest bearing liabilities) to 4.9 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2009 from 5.8 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2008 and 5.4 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2007. The following table below shows analysis of average effective interest rates by currency for main monetary financial instruments. The analysis was prepared on the basis of weighted average interest rates as at 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007. See “Presentation of Financial and Other Information – Average Balances, Average Interest Rates and Effective Interest Rates”.

Provisions for Impairment The Group’s provision for impairment of loans increased to RUB 43,305.6 million or 7.49 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009, compared with RUB 12,889.6 million, or 2.43 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio, as at 31 December 2008 and RUB 4,525.1 million, or 1.27 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2007. See “– Combined Results of Operations for the Years 2009, 2008 and 2007 – Provisions for impairment.”

The Bank believes that the Group has a high quality loan portfolio due to a system of checks and controls established for retail and corporate clients. With respect to retail loans, each decision to extend funding is based on a detailed security check and a score achieved by an applicant on the internal scoring test developed by the Group. For corporate clients, the Group has developed criteria of creditworthiness and assesses corporate loans on a monthly basis by placing each corporate loan in one of five categories depending on the probability of default. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures” for a more detailed description of the Group’s lending procedures.

In the second half of 2007, in response to the crisis in the international financial markets, the Group revised its approach to risk assessment. The Group reviewed its risk management strategies and implemented an internal stress testing programme in light of the deteriorating economic conditions. The Group set a strategic goal to apply a more conservative approach in evaluating the quality of the financial position of its borrowers, which included increased requirements in relation to the size and quality of collateral, and stricter lending requirements, and in evaluating the amount of provisions necessary during a given period. The Group introduced stricter provisioning requirements for borrowers not yet in default of their obligations. Since July 2010 the Group has relaxed certain of its anti-crisis restrictions by, for example, widening the range of industry sectors to which it extends corporate overdrafts and reducing the discount applied to collateral. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures – Collateral” for a more detailed description of the Group’s collateral requirements. As a result, the volume of current impaired loans increased as at 31 December 2007 as certain loans were categorised as impaired due to the tougher provisioning requirements and not due to

64 actual growth in the borrowers’ default on their obligations. In 2008 the Group for the first time applied a statistics-based approach to the quality analysis of loans provided to individuals based on the data of actual losses on loans for the last five years and recognised impairment in respect of some loans previously recorded as current. In addition, the average rate of provisioning (defined as the sum of provision for impairment of loans to legal entities and provision for impairment of loans to individuals as a percentage of total loans to customers (gross)), which was 7.49 per cent. as at 31 December 2009, 2.43 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 1.27 per cent. as at 31 December 2007, has increased as overdue loans have increased. Although the Bank believes that the quality of its loan portfolio is generally sound, the level of overdue loans increased from RUB 8,091.2 million as at 31 December 2007 to RUB 20,197.5 million as at December 2008 to RUB 35,381.8 million as at 31 December 2009. In addition, provisions generally increased in line with the increase in loans to customers. For further information on loans to customers. “– Combined Results of Operations for the years, 2009, 2009 and 2007 – Assets – Loans to Customers”. The retail lending market and the lending market for medium-sized enterprises in the Russian Federation continues to be relatively underdeveloped and limited resources are available in Russian banks to ascertain the credit history of individual and medium-sized enterprise borrowers. As a result, the financial condition of individuals and medium-sized enterprises transacting business with the Group is difficult to assess and predict. The Group’s loans to individuals accounted for 15.3 per cent. of the Group’s loans to customers as at 31 December 2009 as compared with 21.4 per cent. of the Group’s loans to customers as at 31 December 2008 and 21.0 per cent. of the Group’s loans to customers as at 31 December 2007. The Group’s loans to SMEs accounted for 6.6 per cent. of the Group’s loans to customers as at 31 December 2009 as compared with 8.8 per cent. of the Group’s loans to customers as at 31 December 2008 and 11.9 per cent. of the Group’s loans to customers as at 31 December 2007. The market for SMEs in Russia suffered to a greater extent in the economic downturn partially because it did not receive the state funding received by larger corporations during this time. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry – Changes in the Group’s customer focus may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations”.

The Group had not written off any loans until 2007, when RUB 1,231.3 million was written off, with RUB 891.3 million in express (scoring) loans written off as uncollectable during the period. In 2008, the amount of loans written off as uncollectable decreased to RUB 774.4 million, with RUB 570.7 million in express (scoring) loans written off as uncollectable during the period. In 2009, the amount of loans written off as uncollectable decreased to RUB 141.2 million, with RUB 0.1 million in express (scoring) loans written off as uncollectable during the period. For further information regarding movements in the provision for impairment of loans, see “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Loan Portfolio – Provisions for Impairment” and “ – Provisions for Impairment”. For more information regarding when a loan is written off, see Note 4 “Significant Accounting Policies” in the 2009 Financial Statements.

The Group is subject to risks regarding the credit quality of, and the recovery on loans to and amounts due from, customers and market counterparties, which are negatively affected by a deterioration in general economic conditions (see “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Credit Risk”).

The Group has reviewed certain of its lending requirements in the light of recent improvements in Russia’s macroeconomic conditions, however the Bank intends to maintain a conservative approach with regard to evaluating the quality and financial position of its borrowers. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry – The Group may fail to manage its growth adequately.”

Fluctuations in the value of financial assets As at 31 December 2009, the Group had RUB 132,199.7 million, or 16.0 per cent. of its assets, invested in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets available for sale, as compared to 5.7 per cent. and 10.4 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively. In the wake of the recent turmoil in the global debt and equity capital markets, in 2008 the Group adopted a more conservative securities trading policy and streamlined its portfolio to reduce the volume of its securities portfolio, in particular in equity securities. During the economic downturn, the value of assets was also affected by lack of liquidity. In early 2009 the Group began to increase the volume of its securities portfolio in both equity and debt securities. The increase in the securities portfolio also allowed the Group to increase its secured

65 debt position to secure cheaper funding from the CBR. As of 31 December 2009, the majority of the Group’s securities were freely tradable debt securities in bonds issued by leading Russian companies and Russian federal and municipal debt securities (most with put options exercisable after one year from respective issue dates). For a further discussion of the Group’s investments in financial assets, see “– Combined Results of Operations for the Years 2009, 2008 and 2007 – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” and “– Combined Results of Operations for the Years 2009, 2008 and 2007 – Financial assets available for sale”.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS From 1 January 2010 to the date of this Prospectus, the Group has had several developments relating to its business and operations discussed below.

Changes in the international capital markets The period from the beginning of 2010 has shown an increase in liquidity in the international capital markets, including increases in the issuance of international debt capital market instruments. The change in the international capital markets environment may help Russian debtors (including Russian banks such as the Group) borrow at more attractive interest rates and for longer tenors. The favourable changes in the international financial markets have boosted investor interest in debt instruments of the issuers of the emerging markets, including the Russian Federation.

Repayment of international borrowings In March 2010 the Bank repaid the USD 105 million syndicated term loan facility raised in March 2007 for a term of three years. In May 2010 the Bank repaid the USD 600 million syndicated term loan facility raised in November 2007 for a term of two and a half years.

Eurobond issue On 11 March 2010 the Bank finalised the eurobond issue in the amount of USD 750 million with interest of 6.699 per cent., maturing in 2015.

Equity Financing On July 26 2010, the CBR registered the results of an additional issue of the Bank’s shares in the amount of 21, 632,017 securities with the nominal value of RUB 100 each. The offering price (including the offering price for the persons with pre-emptive rights) was RUB 1,003 per share. The share capital of the Bank increased by 13.7 per cent. from RUB 15.8 billion to RUB 18.0 billion according to the Bank’s unconsolidated RAS accounting reports.

Results for the six month period ended 30 June 2010 and the balance sheet as at 1 July 2010 The following discussion and summary results are based on unconsolidated RAS accounting reports for the Bank for the six month period ended 30 June 2010 and the balance sheet as at 1 July 2010. In accordance with the Banking Law, the Bank is required to publish certain RAS accounting reports quarterly, including a balance sheet, income statement and information on its assets, capital reserves and allowances for impaired loans. These reports have not been audited or reviewed by the Bank’s external auditors. In addition, these reports are not prepared in accordance with IFRS. Accordingly, the trends reflected below should not be viewed as indicative of the performance or condition of the Bank or Group as reflected in future financial statements produced by the Bank or Group under IFRS. See “Risk Factors – Risks related to the Group’s Business and Industry – The Group’s accounting systems may not be as sophisticated as those of companies organised in jurisdictions with a longer history of compliance with international accounting standards”. In relation to the Bank’s assets, as at 1 July 2010, the amount of net indebtedness (or customer loans and interbank loans) had increased compared to the amount of net indebtedness as at 1 January 2010. This was due to the growth of the loan book driven by an increase in loans to corporates. In relation to the Bank’s liabilities, as at 1 July 2010, the amount of funds due to other banks and the amount of funds due to the CBR had decreased compared to the amount of funds due to other banks and the amount

66 of funds due to the CBR as at 1 January 2010 due in part to an increase in customer accounts, which allowed the Bank to repay amounts due to the CBR. As at 30 June 2010, the amount of customer accounts had increased compared to the amount of customer accounts as at 1 January 2010. This was due in part to the stabilisation of the economic situation in the Russian Federation and also the Bank’s replacing amounts due to the CBR with customer accounts, as a cheaper source of funding. In relation to the Bank’s results of operations, for the six-month period ended 30 June 2010 compared to the six-month period ended 30 June 2009, the Bank had increased its net profit mainly due to an increase in net interest income primarily due to the growth of the Bank’s loan portfolio and a slowdown in provisioning due in part to the stabilisation of the Russian economy.

COMBINED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS 2009, 2008 AND 2007 The following table sets forth the principal components of the Group’s net profit for the periods indicated.

It is primarily determined by the volume of and balances between interest-earning assets and interest earning liabilities, as well as the difference between interest rates earned on interest earning assets and interest rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. Interest income is made up of income from loans to customers, financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, due from other banks, financial assets at fair value available for sale and investments held to maturity. Interest income is derived primarily from loans to customers, which constituted 87.4 per cent. of interest income for the year ended 31 December 2009. Interest expense consists of expense from current accounts and term deposits of customers, debt securities issued and term deposits of banks. Interest expense is derived primarily from current accounts and term deposits of customers, which constituted 62.7 per cent. of interest expense for the year ended 31 December 2009.

68 The Group’s net interest income before provisions for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 10.2 per cent. to RUB 31,275.4 million from net interest income before provisions of RUB 28,381.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from the general increase in interest rates charged in relation to loans to customers and the higher level of average balances of loans to customers during this year. See “– Interest expense” below. The Group’s net interest margin decreased from 5.3 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2008 to 4.6 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2009 mainly as a result of the increase of the Group’s cost of funding. The Group’s net interest income before provisions for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 48.8 per cent. to RUB 28,381.7 million from net interest income before provisions of RUB 19,077.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from an overall increase in the volume of loans to customers and offset a 62.3 per cent. increase in interest expense. See “– Interest expense” below.

The following table sets out the Group’s interest income and interest expense for the periods indicated:

The Group’s interest income before provisions for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 33.6 per cent. to RUB 82,264.2 million from interest income before provisions of RUB 61,597.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from a 39.6 per cent. increase in interest income from loans to customers, which in turn resulted primarily from increases in interest rates charged in relation to loans to customers and the higher average balance of loans to customers asset for the year ended 31 December 2009 compared with the year ended 31 December 2008. The Group’s interest income before provisions for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 55.8 per cent. to RUB 61,597.3 million from interest income before provisions of RUB 39,544.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from a 61.7 per cent. increase in interest income from loans to customers. This increase resulted primarily from the growth in the volume of the retail and corporate loan portfolios, as interest rates remained relatively stable during this time. For a more detailed description of the factors affecting the Group’s interest income, see “– Interest income from loans to customers”, “– Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale” and “– Interest income due from other banks” below.

69 The following table sets forth the principal components of the Group’s interest income for the periods indicated: For the year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) (audited) (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Loans to customers 71,901,629 39.6 51,505,595 61.7 31,843,735 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 7,970,398 67.9 4,747,490 5.8 4,488,862 Due from other banks 2,229,332 (56.6) 5,141,172 65.1 3,114,898 Financial assets available for sale 94,724 (50.1) 189,796 95.9 96,880 Investments held to maturity 68,095 412.4 13,290 – – ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– Total interest income –––––––––82,264,178 ––––––––– 33.6 –––––––––61,597,343 ––––––––– 55.8 –––––––––39,544,375 Interest income from loans to customers The Group provides corporate banking products and services to a variety of commercial and governmental entities, including federal, regional and municipal authorities and entities partly- or wholly-owned by them. As at 1 May 2010, the Group had over 105,000 corporate and governmental clients. The Group’s corporate customer base represents various sectors of the Russian economy, including financial services, construction, manufacturing, trade, fuel and energy. The Group offers a wide range of credit products to corporate clients, including loans, credit lines, overdrafts and bank guarantees. See “Business – Banking Services and Activities”. As at 31 December 2009, 71.1 per cent. of the Group’s total loan portfolio comprised loans to non-state entities and organisations (including SMEs) as compared to 70.9 per cent. and 72.4 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 2007 respectively. As at 31 December 2009, 13.6 per cent. of the Group’s total loan portfolio comprised loans to governmental entities, including federal, regional and municipal entities, and loans to Russian regions as compared to 7.7 per cent. and 6.6 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 2007 respectively. Loan terms vary depending on each particular client’s needs and risk limits. All corporate loans are evaluated and extended based on standard credit risk evaluation procedures and are approved by the Group’s internal credit committees. Moreover, the power to additionally approve lending decisions made by internal credit committees in respect of loans to SMEs is granted to a number of authorised officers. From the second half of 2007 on, largely due to the international financial crisis, the Group modified its approach to risk assessment and began to apply a more conservative approach to evaluating quality of the borrower’s financial position, including, for example, introducing additional requirements with respect to the size and quality of collateral. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures – Collateral”. As at 31 December 2009, loans to retail clients accounted for RUB 88,294.4 million, or 15.3 per cent. of the Group’s loan portfolio, compared with RUB 113,069.0 million (21.4 per cent. of the Group’s loan portfolio) as at 31 December 2008, RUB 74,625.9 million (21.0 per cent. of the Group’s loan portfolio) as at 31 December 2007. The Group currently offers a wide range of loan products to its retail customers, including consumer loans, mortgage loans, car loans, express (scoring) loans, bank card overdrafts and credit cards. For a more detailed description of the Group’s loan products offered to the Group’s retail customers, see “– Business – Banking Services and Activities”. Since interest rates offered to retail customers are generally higher than those offered to corporate borrowers, the Bank intends to grow its portfolio of retail loans to 35 per cent. of its overall loan portfolio in the near future. The Group’s interest income from loans to customers for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by approximately 39.6 per cent. to RUB 71,901.6 million from interest income from loans to customers of RUB 51,505.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from the increase in volume of loans to customers as interest rates during this time remained relatively stable. In particular, the increase in volume of loans to customers resulted primarily from the growth of the Group’s

70 regional branch network and continuing diversification of the Group’s customer base. The Group’s interest income from loans to customers for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 61.7 per cent. to RUB 51,505.6 million from interest income from loans to customers of RUB 31,843.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from the increase in volume of loans to customers as interest rates during this time remained relatively stable.

Interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss The Group’s interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss comprises interest income from corporate bonds, Russian Federation bonds, corporate Eurobonds, bonds of foreign governments and promissory notes.

The Group’s interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 67.9 per cent. to RUB 7,970.4 million from RUB 4,747.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted from an increase in the amount of and overall proportion of corporate debt securities in the Group’s securities portfolio. The Group’s interest income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 5.8 per cent. to RUB 4,747.5 million compared to RUB 4,488.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2007.

Interest income from financial assets available for sale The Group’s interest income from financial assets available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 50.1 per cent. to RUB 94.7 million from RUB 189.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. The Group’s interest income from financial assets available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 95.9 per cent. to RUB 189.8 million compared to RUB 96.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. The decrease in 2009 resulted from the redemption of the significant portion of the debt securities available for sale in the Group’s portfolio in the first half of 2009.

Interest income from due from other banks The Group’s interest income from due from other banks for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 56.6 per cent. to RUB 2,229.3 million from income from due from other banks of RUB 5,141.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease in interest income from due from other banks resulted mainly from the decrease in the interest rate payable on due from other banks in 2009 compared with 2008.

The Group’s interest income from due from other banks for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 65.1 per cent. to RUB 5,141.2 million from interest income from due from other banks of RUB 3,114.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted from an increase in the amount of loans and deposits by the Group with other banks in 2008 compared with 2007, while the average interest rates due from banks remained relatively stable during the period.

Interest expense The Group’s interest expense consists of interest expense from current accounts and term deposits of customers, debt securities issued and term deposits of banks. Following the impact of the economic crisis in the third quarter of 2008, the Group has relied on state funding, including borrowings from the CBR, as well as customer accounts to make up an increased proportion of its funding base, as the amount of funding from international capital markets has declined. The Group has experienced a growth of customer deposits, particularly as customers of smaller, more risky banks have migrated to larger, more secure banks since the beginning of 2009. The Group’s interest expense for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 53.5 per cent. to RUB 50,988.7 million from interest expense of RUB 33,215.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. The Group’s interest expense for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 62.3 per cent. to RUB 33,215.6 million from interest expense of RUB 20,467.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. The increases in interest expense in 2008 and 2007 resulted primarily from an increase in the volume of debt securities issued by the Group and term deposits of other banks, as well as the volume of customer accounts, in particular current accounts by non-governmental entities in 2007 and term deposits of customers in 2008 and 2007 and of non-governmental entities in 2008. For a more detailed description of interest expense, see

71 “–Interest expense related to current accounts and term deposits of customers”, “– Interest expense related to debt securities issued” and “– Interest expense related to term deposits of other banks” below. The following table sets out the principal components of the Group’s interest expense for the periods indicated: For the year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Current accounts and term deposits of customers 31,944,486 45.7 21,931,770 60.8 13,639,449 Debt securities issued 7,338,485 54.7 4,744,175 28.4 3,695,237 Term deposits of banks 11,705,768 79.0 6,539,654 108.8 3,132,395 ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– Total interest expense –––––––––50,988,739 ––––––––– 53.5 –––––––––33,215,599 ––––––––– 62.3 –––––––––20,467,081 Interest expense related to current accounts and term deposits of customers The Group’s interest expense related to customer accounts for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 45.7 per cent. to RUB 31,944.5 million from interest expense related to customer accounts of RUB 21,931.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from increases in interest rate paid in the Russian market, in the first half of 2009 which was driven in part by higher rates set by the CBR, as well as by limited liquidity available in the Russian market. Since April 2009, the CBR has gradually lowered its refinancing rate.

The Group’s interest expense related to current accounts and term deposits of customers for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 60.8 per cent. to RUB 21,931.8 million from interest expense related to current accounts and term deposits of customers of RUB 13,639.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in the volume of customer accounts while interest rates generally remained stable during the period.

Interest expense related to debt securities issued The Group’s interest expense related to debt securities issued for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 54.7 per cent. to RUB 7,338.5 million from interest expense related to debt securities issued of RUB 4,744.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from the increased amount of Rouble-denominated bonds issued by the Bank in 2008 and a decrease in the Rouble exchange rate.

The Group’s interest expense related to debt securities issued for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 28.4 per cent. to RUB 4,744.2 million from interest expense related to debt securities issued of RUB 3,695.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from the two new Rouble denominated bonds and the Eurobond issued by the Bank in 2008.

The following table sets forth the total debt securities issued by the Group:

For the year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Eurobonds 51,978,409 (18.7) 63,952,625 33.3 47,989,195 Promissory notes 8,302,165 15.4 7,196,136 (2.1) 7,351,781 Bonds 17,818,205 (13.4) 20,566,469 3,260.8 611,950 Certificates of deposit – – – – 3,365 ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– Total debt securities issued 78,098,779––––––––– ––––––––– (14.8) 91,715,230––––––––– ––––––––– 63.9 55,956,291–––––––––

72 Interest expense related to term deposits of banks The Group’s interest expense related to term deposits of banks for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 79.0 per cent. to RUB 11,705.8 million from interest expense related to term deposits of banks of RUB 6,539.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from increases in the average rate paid on amounts due to other banks, which relates in part to the higher rates payable on loans from the CBR in the first half of 2009 and also the higher average balances of amounts due to other banks in 2009.

The Group’s interest expense related to term deposits of banks for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 108.8 per cent. to RUB 6,539.7 million from interest expense related to term deposits of Groups of RUB 3,132.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from a rise in interest rates and an increase in average amounts owed to banks.

Provision for impairment Provision for impairment represents provisions made for loans to customers, including legal entities and individuals, and amounts due from other banks. For a more detailed description of provisions for impairment, see “– Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Provisions for Impairment.”

In accordance with Federal Law No. 395-I “On Banks and Banking Activity” dated 2 December 1990, as amended, the Bank is required to publish certain RAS accounting reports quarterly, including allowances for impaired loans, which do not contain all of the information contained in the Group’s annual financial statements, and are not prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Group’s management assesses on each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the value of a financial asset item or group of items has been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the consolidated statement of income as they are incurred as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a “loss event”) and that has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment. For a detailed discussion of the Group’s policy of recording of the Group’s impairment losses, see Note 4 to the 2009 Financial Statements. See also “– Critical Accounting Policies.”

The Group’s provisions for impairment for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased to RUB 30,751.5 million from provisions for impairment of RUB 8,966.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from a more conservative approach employed by the Group to safeguard against foreseeable economic deterioration and deterioration in the Group’s loan portfolio, primarily in the medium sized enterprise and retail sectors as a result of the impact of the economic crisis. The Group already increased provisioning in the fourth quarter of 2008 to safeguard against foreseeable economic deterioration. The Group’s provision for impairment for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased to RUB 8,966.8 million from provision for impairment of RUB 2,447.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from an increase of the total loan portfolio of the Group and an increased proportion of loans to individuals in the total loan portfolio of the Group. See “– Provision for impairment of due from loans to legal entities” and “– Provision for impairment of due from loans to individuals” below.

In 2007 the Group set a strategic goal to apply a more conservative approach in evaluating the quality and financial position of its borrowers, which included increased requirements in relation to the size and quality of collateral and stricter lending requirements. The Group introduced stricter provisioning requirements for borrowers not yet in default of their obligations. Since July 2010 the Group has relaxed certain of its anti-crisis restrictions by, for example, widening the range of industry sectors to which it extends corporate overdrafts and reducing the discount applied to collateral. For a further discussion of the Group’s investments in financial assets, see “– Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Provisions for Impairment.” See also “– Critical Accounting Policies – Impairment of Financial Assets.”

2009 2008 2007 Provision for impairment of due from other banks as at 1 January 3,146 28,476 9,278 (Recovery of provision)/Provision for impairment of due from other banks during the year 1,568 (24,353) 20,029 Exchange difference (5) (977) (831) –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– Provision for impairment of due from other banks as at 31 December ––––––––4,709 –––––––– 3,146 –––––––– 28,476 The Group’s provision for impairment of due from other banks for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 1.6 million compared with recovery of provision for impairment of due from other banks of RUB 24.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This change resulted primarily from the Group changing the composition of its counterparties for operations in the market. The Group’s recovery of provision for impairment of due from other banks for the year ended 31 December 2008 was RUB 24.4 million compared with provision for impairment of due from other banks of RUB 20.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This change resulted primarily from a reduction of the Group’s volume of trading in repurchase agreements.

Provision for impairment of due from loans to legal entities The table below shows movements in the provision for impairment by classes of loans to legal entities for the year ended 31 December 2009.

31 December 2009 Loans to Loans to small government Corporate and medium and municipal Loans business authorities Total RUB million Provision for impairment of loans to legal entities as at 1 January 3,574.9 2,857.4 0.6 6,432.9 (Recovery of provision) / Provision for impairment during the year 18,483.7 5,034.2 8.9 23,526.8 Exchange difference (52.2) (49.1) – (101.3) Loans written off during the year as uncollectible (111.2) (27.3) – (138.5) –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– Provision for impairment of loans to legal entities as at 31 December ––––––––21,895.2 –––––––– 7,815.2 –––––––– 9.5 –––––––– 29,719.9 The Group’s provision for impairment of due from loans to legal entities for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased to RUB 23,526.8 million from provision for impairment of due from loans to legal entities of RUB 3,943.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from the impact of the global economic crisis on corporate loans and loans to SMEs. The table below shows movements in the provision for impairment by classes of loans to legal entities for the year ended 31 December 2008.

This increase resulted primarily from the impact of the economic crisis, which resulted in a deterioration of the Group’s loan portfolio to individuals who did not receive the same level of the Government support as large corporations.

This increase resulted primarily from the impact of the economic crisis. The Group increased provisioning in the fourth quarter of 2008 to safeguard against foreseeable economic deterioration. For a more detailed description of provisions for impairment due to loans to individuals, see “– Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Provisions for Impairment.”

Net interest income after provision for impairment The Group’s net interest income after provision for impairment for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 97.3 per cent. to RUB 524.0 million from net interest income after provision for impairment of RUB 19,414.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease resulted primarily from the significant increase in the Group’s provision for impairment in accordance with the Bank’s more conservative risk management procedures during the global economic crisis. The Group’s net interest income after provision for impairment for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 16.7 per cent. to RUB 19,414.9 million from net interest income after provision for impairment of RUB 16,630.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from the growth of the Group’s loan portfolio yet was partially offset by the effects of the economic crisis, which caused the Group to increase provisioning in the fourth quarter of 2008 to safeguard against foreseeable economic deterioration.

76 Non-interest income The following table sets out certain information regarding the Group’s non-interest income for the periods under review: For the year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Gains less losses arising from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 9,595,572 – (6,943,320) – 615,310 Gains less losses arising from financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (1,141,514) – 674,382 – (46,080) Gains less losses arising from financial assets available for sale 935,369 662.7 122,640 231.2 37,029 Gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency and precious metals 638,493 (30.6) 919,389 (68.4) 2,908,423 Gains less losses from revaluation of foreign currency and precious metals (497,849) – 1,485,642 – (1,952,341) Fee and commission income 6,966,411 (4.5) 7,292,854 39.8 5,217,688 Fee and commission expense (1,486,008) (1.9) (1,515,031) 65.1 (917,902) Dividends received 19,040 (64.4) 53,538 892.5 5,394 Contributions to the Deposit Insurance Fund (633,476) (5.1) (667,540) 13.9 (585,986) Other operating income less expenses 1,856,331 38.1 1,344,365 40.3 957,993 ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– Total non-interest income –––––––––16,252.369 ––––––––– 487.4 ––––––––– 2,766,919 ––––––––– (55.7) ––––––––– 6,239,528 The Group’s non-interest income for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 487.4 per cent. to RUB 16,252.4 million from non-interest income in this category of RUB 2,766.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss as the result of the growth of the Group’s securities portfolio, and the increased volume of operations in securities market, which began to recover from the global economic crisis in 2009. The Group’s non-interest income for the year ended 31 December 2008 decreased by 55.7 per cent. to RUB 2,766.9 million from non-interest income in this category of RUB 6,239.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. The decrease in non-interest income in 2008 resulted primarily from decreases in income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss as a result of the mark to market of the securities portfolio and losses from trading operations in the content of the economic downturn and declining stock market, in particular in the last quarter of 2008. See “– Net income arising from gains less losses from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss”, “– Net income arising from gains less losses from financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss”, “– Net income arising from gains less losses from financial assets available for sale”, “– Fee and commission income” and “– Fee and commission expense”.

Net income arising from gains less losses from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss reflected in the consolidated balance sheet include trading securities and derivative financial instruments. The Group’s income arising from gains less losses from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 9,595.6 million. The Group’s income arising from gains less losses arising from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2008 was negative RUB 6,943.3 million. This increase resulted primarily from gains from

77 securities trading resulting from the growth of the Group’s securities portfolio, increased volume of Group’s operations in securities market which recovered from the crisis in 2009, and also from the appreciation in value of the Group’s securities portfolio The Group’s income arising from gains less losses from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2008 was negative RUB 6,943.3 million compared to RUB 615.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This decrease resulted primarily from a negative revaluation of the Group’s securities portfolio, primarily involving corporate equity and corporate debt securities.

Net income arising from gains less losses from financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss reflected in the consolidated balance sheet include trading securities and derivative financial instruments. The Group’s income arising from gains less losses from financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2009 was negative RUB 1,141.5 million compared to RUB 674.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease resulted primarily from revaluation at fair value of financial liabilities under reverse repurchase agreements and revaluation at fair value of transactions with derivatives and swap transactions. The Group’s income arising from gains less losses from financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 2008 was RUB 674.4 million compared to negative RUB 46.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in unrealised gains on trading securities from a revaluation at fair value of financial liabilities under reverse repurchase agreements.

Net income arising from gains less losses from financial assets available for sale The Group’s income arising from gains less losses from financial assets available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 662.7 per cent. to RUB 935.4 million from RUB 122.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in volume of financial assets available for sale and gains generated by purchase and sale of securities. The Group’s income arising from gains less losses from financial assets available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 231.2 per cent. to RUB 122.6 million from RUB 37.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in income generated by purchase and sale of securities in particular the sale of shares in Visa Inc. in the initial public offering of Visa Inc.

Net income arising from gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency and precious metals The Group’s portfolio of currencies is made up of a variety of currencies. As a result, appreciation or depreciation of currencies against the Rouble will have an impact on net income arising from dealing in foreign currency.

The Group’s net income arising from gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency and precious metals for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 30.6 per cent. to RUB 638.5 million from the Group’s net income arising from gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency of RUB 919.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. The decrease for the year ended 31 December 2009 was the result of swap transactions aimed at managing the Group’s currency position where the Group paid higher interest rates on currencies it purchased compared to the rates on currencies the Group sold and this difference in interest rates was reflected in the foreign exchange rates.

The Group’s net income arising from gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency and precious metals for the year ended 31 December 2008 decreased by 68.4 per cent. to RUB 919.4 million from net income in this category of RUB 2,908.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This decrease resulted primarily from trading and higher volatility in the foreign exchange markets. In addition, Russian companies desiring loans only denominated in Roubles exacerbated a currency mismatch in the Group’s portfolio. This decrease resulted primarily from a regulatory obligation to keep foreign currency assets with the CBR and within Russia in the fourth quarter of 2008.

78 Gains less losses from revaluation of foreign currency and precious metals The Group’s gains less losses from revaluation of foreign currency and precious metals for the year ended 31 December 2009 was negative RUB 497.8 million compared to the Group’s gains less losses from revaluation of foreign currency of RUB 1,485.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease resulted primarily from exchange rate fluctuations.

The Group’s gains less losses from revaluation of foreign currency and precious metals for the year ended 31 December 2008 was RUB 1,485.6 million compared to negative RUB 1,952.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from exchange rate fluctuations.

Fee and commission income Fee and commission income is the income from the Group’s operations relating to settlement and cash transactions, operations with plastic cards, transactions with securities, guarantees issued, cash collections and fiduciary activities. The following tables set out fees and commission income of the Group for the periods under the review:

For the years ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) (audited) (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Commission on settlement and cash transactions 3,965,452 11.1 3,570,757 37.4 2,599,497 Commission on operations with plastic cards 1,582,289 (20.8) 1,997,836 40.6 1,420,650 Commission on transactions with securities 121,939 (45.2) 222,665 (0.3) 223,321 Commission on guarantees issued 778,917 14.8 678,728 77.4 382,593 Commission on cash collection 232,750 20.0 193,961 8.4 178,874 Commissions under fiduciary activities 228,870 7.8 212,369 (41.2) 361,253 Other 56,194 (86.5) 416,538 708.8 51,500 ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– Total fee and commission income –––––––––6,966,411 ––––––––– (4.5) ––––––––– 7,292,854 ––––––––– 39.8 ––––––––– 5,217,688 The Group’s fee and commission income for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 4.5 per cent. to RUB 6,966,4 million from fee and commission income of RUB 7,292.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease resulted primarily from decreases in fee and commission expense from commission on operations with plastic cards and commission on transactions with securities, which resulted from the Group’s customers performing a reduced number of operations with plastic cards and transactions with securities as a result of the global economic crisis. The Group’s fee and commission income for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 39.8 per cent. to RUB 7,292.9 million from fee and commission income of RUB 5,217.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. These increases resulted primarily from increases in fee and commission income from commission on settlement and cash transactions, which resulted from growth in the number of corporate and retail clients and an increase in the number of transactions with those clients and growth of the Group’s customer base, especially in the retail sector customer base, which led to the introduction of new products by the Group (such as plastic cards) and a related increase in the amount of fees and commissions received by the Group.

Fee and commission expense Fee and commission expense consists of expense arising from the Group’s operations relating to settlement and cash transactions, operations with plastic cards, transactions with securities, guarantees issued, cash collections and fiduciary activities.

79 The following tables set out fees and commission expense and expenses of the Group for the periods under the review:

This decrease resulted primarily from decreases in fee and commission expense from commission on settlement and cash transactions, which resulted from decrease in the number of settlement and cash transactions in the context of the global economic crisis. The Group’s fee and commission expense for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 65.1 per cent. to RUB 1,515.0 million from fee and commission expense of RUB 917.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. The increases in fee and commission expense during 2008 and 2007 resulted from an increase in the number of clients and the volume of operations for the Group, a respective increase in fee and commission income discussed above, and from a gradual increase in the volume of plastic card operations performed by the Group primarily through an increase in the number ATMs and service points for plastic cards and from an increase in point of sale contacts.

General and administrative expenses General and administrative costs include staff costs, professional services, rent, taxes other than income tax, depreciation and amortisation, administrative expenses, advertising and marketing, charity and expenses related to premises and equipment.

The Group’s general and administrative expenses for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by approximately 4.5 per cent. to RUB 14,317.8 million from general and administrative expenses of RUB 14,991.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease was caused by reductions in staff costs of 6.4 per cent., expenses relating to premises and equipment of 23.5 per cent., administrative expenses of 32.9 per cent. and advertising and marketing expenses of 53.9 per cent.

The Group’s general and administrative expenses for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by approximately 30.5 per cent. to RUB 14,991.6 million from general and administrative expenses of RUB 11,491.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted from an increase in the number of branches at the end of 2007 and the beginning of 2008, which increased costs relating to rent, maintenance of the premises, as well as staff, including remuneration of employees. The increase in general and administrative expenses in 2007 resulted primarily from an increase in number of employees of the Group and a related increase in staff costs, including an approximately 20 per cent. increase in average employee salaries in 2007.

80 The following table sets out the major components of the Group’s general and administrative expenses for the periods under review:

For the year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Staff costs 7,430,049 (6.4) 7,938,238 24.0 6,400,878 Professional services (security, communications etc.) 1,220,347 28.4 950,217 22.4 776,477 Rent 2,045,801 17. 1 1,746,683 50.4 1,161,263 Taxes other than income tax 1,083,060 9.3 990,703 12.6 879,878 Depreciation and amortisation 848,117 23.4 687,288 88.6 364,337 Administrative expenses 484,626 (32.9) 722,620 135.1 307,304 Advertising and marketing 328,068 (53.9) 711,210 2.7 692,565 Charity 88,032 (35.6) 136,732 103.8 67,096 Expenses related to premises and equipment 612,705 (23.5) 801,054 176.4 289,860 Other 177,000 (42.3) 306,807 (44.4) 551,786 ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– ––––––––– Total general and administrative expenses –––––––––14,317,805 ––––––––– (4.5) –––––––––14,991,552 ––––––––– 30.5 –––––––––11,491,444 Income tax expense The Group’s income tax expense for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 57.9 per cent. to RUB 535.1 million from income tax expense of RUB 1,271.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in profit before taxation.

The Group’s income tax expense for the year ended 31 December 2008 decreased by approximately 59.6 per cent. to RUB 1,271.2 million from income tax expense of RUB 3,146.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in profit before taxation.

Net profit The Group’s net profit for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by approximately 89.7 per cent. to RUB 717.0 million from net profit of RUB 6,977.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease resulted from factors indicated above, particularly the large provisions the Group made in 2009 to recognize the deterioration of the Group’s loan portfolio and the impact of the economic crisis on the Group’s loan portfolio. See “– Factors Affecting the Group’s results of Operations and Financial Condition – Provisions for Impairment.”

The Group’s net profit attributable to non-controlling interest for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 97.3 per cent. to RUB 5.7 million from net profit attributable to non-controlling interest of RUB 215.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This decrease resulted from a decrease of the Group’s non-controlling interest as a result of the Group acquiring shareholdings in companies, where it previously had a non-controlling interest, as part of a deliberate strategy during the global economic crisis.

81 Assets The following table sets out the Group’s total assets for the periods under review:

As at 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Assets Cash and cash equivalents 75,955,760 (43.0) 133,268,662 108.5 63,920,118 Mandatory cash balances with central banks 4,748,438 308.6 1,162,092 (81.5) 6,294,827 Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss 118,461,672 234.5 35,411,892 (31.0) 51,312,593 Due from other banks 50,703,283 (31.8) 74,337,103 82.0 40,853,080 Loans to customers 534,489,549 3.5 516,563,769 46.9 351,622,231 Financial assets available for sale 13,738,026 29.1 10,644,540 182.3 3,771,181 Investments held to maturity 265,211 (72.4) 959,716 – – Investments in associates and non-consolidated subsidiaries 3,820,845 (3.7) 3,965,609 1385.9 266,883 Premises and equipment, and intangible assets 16,895,277 (12.3) 19,255,617 146.9 7,800,053 Other assets 5,239,209 (1.8) 5,334,292 139.5 2,227,266 –––––––––– ––––––––– –––––––––– ––––––––– –––––––––– Tax assets 826,382 71.4 482,065 2583.2 17,966 –––––––––– ––––––––– –––––––––– ––––––––– –––––––––– Total Assets ––––––––––825,143,652 ––––––––– 3.0 ––––––––––801,385,357 ––––––––– 51.8 ––––––––––528,086,198 The Group’s total assets for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 3.0 per cent. to RUB 825,143.7 million from total assets of RUB 801,385.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from increased investment in Rouble-, Dollar- and Euro-denominated securities. This increase in the investment in securities has been used by the Group to increase its secured debt liabilities, particularly borrowings from the CBR, which are less costly in terms of interest rate expense than unsecured debt. In addition, there was an increase in loans to customers.

The Group’s total assets for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by approximately 51.8 per cent. to RUB 801,385.4 million from total assets of RUB 528,086.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in cash and cash equivalents and an increase in loans to other customers; a 46.9 per cent. increase in net loans to customers, a 108.5 per cent. increase in cash and cash equivalents, a 82.0 per cent. decrease in amounts due from other banks and a 146.9 per cent. increase in premises and equipment, and intangible assets.

For a more detailed description of the factors affecting the Group’s assets, see “– Cash and cash equivalents,” “– Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss,” “– Due from other banks,” “– Loans to customers,” and “– Financial assets available for sale” below.

Cash and cash equivalents The Group’s cash and cash equivalents for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 43.0 per cent. to RUB 75,955.8 million from cash and cash equivalents of RUB 133,268.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease resulted primarily from a reduction in cash balances with the CBR and correspondent accounts with other banks due in part to an increase in investment by the Group in securities as the global securities markets recovered, as well as the lifting of currency exchange controls imposed on banks generally in the first six months of 2009 and a general decrease in liquidity held by the Group.

The Group’s cash and cash equivalents for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 108.5 per cent. to RUB 133,268.7 million from cash and cash equivalents of RUB 63,920.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents for the year ended 31 December 2007 increased

82 by 46.4 per cent. to RUB 63,920.1 million from cash and cash equivalents of RUB 43,652.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2006. The increase in cash and cash equivalents in 2008 and 2007 resulted primarily from an increase in cash on hand held on the Group’s correspondent accounts with Russian and foreign banks, which reflected the Group’s focus on increasing liquidity in 2008 at the beginning of the financial crisis. The increase in cash and cash equivalents in 2007 reflect the general increase in the Group’s total assets and liabilities and the Group’s obligation to support its liquidity to match the growth of its liabilities to its customers.

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss The Group’s financial assets at fair value through profit and loss for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 234.5 per cent. to RUB 118,461.7 million from financial assets at fair value through profit and loss of RUB 35,411.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from increased investment by the Group in Rouble-, Dollar- and Euro- denominated securities. This increase in the investment in securities was caused by the Bank’s capitalising on the recovery of the global securities markets and its wish to be able to use such securities as collateral for its borrowings from the CBR (as secured borrowing from the CBR is less costly in terms of interest rate expense than unsecured borrowing).

The Group’s financial assets at fair value through profit and loss for the year ended 31 December 2008 decreased by 31 per cent. to RUB 35,411.9 million from RUB 51,312.6 for the year ended 31 December 2007. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease of the trading portfolio and also from the depreciation of trading securities as a result of the falling stock market.

Due from other banks The Group’s due from other banks for the year ended 31 December 2009 decreased by 31.8 per cent. to RUB 50,703.3 million from due other banks of RUB 74,337.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease was caused by the fact that the Bank decided to lend less on the interbank market during the first half of 2009 in the context of the global economic crisis. The Group’s due from other banks for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 82.0 per cent. to RUB 74,337.1 million from due from other banks of RUB 40,853.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. The Group’s due from other banks for the year ended 31 December 2007 increased by 39.6 per cent. to RUB 40,853.1 million from due from other banks of RUB 29,268.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2006. The increases in due from other banks in 2008 and 2007 resulted primarily from the expansion of the Group’s activities on the interbank market. See “– Contractual obligations” below for a description of the Group’s debt securities.

Loans to customers The Group’s net loans to customers for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 3.5 per cent. to RUB 534,489.5 million from net loans to customers of RUB 516,563.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from a deliberate increase in the Group’s lending to corporate customers in line with its 2009 business plan to develop Bank’s core lending business. The Group’s net loans to customers for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by approximately 46.9 per cent. to RUB 516,563.8 million from loans to customers of RUB 351,622.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2007.

Financial assets available for sale The Group’s financial assets available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 29.1 per cent. to RUB 13,738.0 million from financial assets available for sale of RUB 10,644.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in equity securities available for sale from RUB 9,883.0 million to RUB 12,982.4 million. The Group’s financial assets available for sale for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 182.3 per cent. to RUB 10,644.5 million from financial assets available for sale of RUB 3,771.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. These equity securities primarily represent shares and equity holdings of several Moscow enterprises as well as shares of JSCB Zarechiye and JSCB Bank of Khakasia.

This increase resulted primarily from a 5.0 per cent. increase in due to other banks, a 5.3 per cent. increase in customer accounts and a 78.6 per cent. decrease in financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss through growth of the Group’s assets. See “– Assets”. The Group’s liabilities for the year ended 31 December 2008 increased by 53.0 per cent. to RUB 733,734.9 million from liabilities of RUB 479,491.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This increase resulted primarily from an expansion of the Group’s business operations including the growth of the loan portfolio and a significant increase in due to other banks. For a more detailed description of the factors affecting the Group’s liabilities, see “– Due to Other Banks” and “– Customer Accounts” below. See “– Contractual Obligations”.

Due to other banks The Group engages in short-term interbank borrowings, mainly as part of its correspondent banking business and to regulate its liquidity, and medium-term borrowings, mainly in the form of syndicated loans. Due to other banks increased by 5.0 per cent. to RUB 225,714.7 million from RUB 214,923.6 million during the year period ended 31 December 2009 as compared to the year ended on 31 December 2008. This increase resulted primarily from an increase of 6.4 per cent. in term deposits and loans of other banks and the receipt of a subordinated loan in the amount of RUB 11.1 billion from Vnesheconombank. Due to other banks increased by 208.7 per cent. for the year ended 31 December 2008. These increases in 2008 were a result of increasing borrowed funds for lending purposes. The following table sets out the Group’s borrowings from other banks as at the periods under review: As at 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Loans and deposits of CBR 73,845,154 (7.0) 79,407,816 – – Syndicated loans of foreign banks 36,942,091 (7.2) 39,814,178 (0.8) 40,117,444 Term deposits and loans of other banks 91,660,050 6.4 86,112,317 – 24,565,374 Correspondent accounts of other banks 4,984,901 50.8 3,306,431 31.7 2,509,921 Subordinated loan 14,109,430 373.7 2,978,659 22.5 2,431,982 Repo agreements with other banks 4,173,097 26.3 3,304,225 – – –––––––––– ––––––––– –––––––––– ––––––––– –––––––––– Total due to other banks 225,714,723–––––––––– ––––––––– 5.0 214,923,626–––––––––– ––––––––– 208.7 –––––––––– 69,624,721

84 Customer accounts Deposits from retail clients, which represented 41.5 per cent. of the Group’s aggregate customer accounts as at 31 December 2009, were RUB 177,470.6 million compared to RUB 151,207.7 million, and RUB 126,656.5 million as at 31 December 2008 and 2007 respectively. The increase in the size of deposits by individuals is related to competitive interest rates for deposits and growth in ancillary services offered by the Group including but not limited to money transfers, trust management. Deposits from commercial and governmental entities represent the remaining balance of deposits. As at 31 December 2009, the shareholders and associates and other related parties deposited a portion of their funds with the Group. These funds accounted for 14.7 per cent. and 7.8 per cent., respectively, of the Group’s total deposit portfolio (or 8.5 per cent. and 4.5 per cent., respectively, of the Group’s total liabilities) as at 31 December 2009. As at 31 December 2008, these funds accounted for 22.6 per cent. and 4.4 per cent., respectively, of the Group’s total deposit portfolio (or 12.5 per cent. and 2.5 per cent., respectively, of the Group’s total liabilities) compared with 26.2 per cent. and 5.9 per cent., respectively (or 19.2 per cent. and 4.3 per cent., respectively), as at 31 December 2007.

Medium and long term liquidity is managed by matching the currency and maturity of the Group’s assets and liabilities. For additional information on the Group’s liquidity management, see “Asset, Liability and Risk Management – Liquidity Risk”.

Funding The Group requires funds to make loans to customers and to invest in securities. The Group’s primary source of funds is and has been its corporate (including municipal) and retail deposit base, which consists primarily of demand and term deposits. The Group has a large and diverse funding base, servicing over 105,000 corporate and governmental clients and 9.7 million retail clients, as at 31 December 2009. Total deposits increased by 5.3 per cent. to RUB 428,028.6 million as at 31 December 2009, compared to, RUB 406,541.0 million and RUB 350,646.2 million as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively. Highly liquid

85 assets (comprising cash and cash equivalents, due from other banks, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and financial assets available for sale) represented 31.4 per cent. of the Group’s balance sheet assets as at 31 December 2009, compared to 31.7 per cent. and 30.3 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively.

For example, guarantees that represent irrevocable assurances that the Group will make payments in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties carry the same credit risk as loans. Import letters of credit, which are written undertakings by the Group on behalf of a customer authorising a third party to draw drafts on the Group up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions, are collateralised by cash deposits or collateral pledged to the Group and therefore carry less risk than direct borrowing. As at 31 December 2009, the Group had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements other than undrawn credit lines, guarantees and import letters of credit. The Group had total credit-related commitments for the year end 31 December 2009 of RUB 93,876.8 million compared with RUB 80,684.1 million, and RUB 77,641.2 million for the years ended 31 December 2008 and 2007 respectively. As 31 December 2009, the total amount of guarantees issued by the Group was RUB 53,662.7 million, compared to RUB 48,106.0 million, and RUB 36,187.7 million as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively. The total amount of undrawn credit lines as at 31 December 2009 was RUB 31,387.2 million compared to RUB 23,737.2 million and RUB 32,534.8 million as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Group believes that its off-balance sheet obligations would not have a material impact on its financial condition if the Group were required to fulfil such obligations in full. The Group records its off-balance sheet guarantees and commitments to extend credit that represent contingent obligations on its balance sheet at the time of performance in accordance with the applicable accounting standards.

The contractual amount of these commitments represents the value at risk should the contract be fully drawn upon, the client defaults, and the value of any existing collateral becomes worthless. The Group’s management estimates possibility of losses in connection with credit related commitments as immaterial for each of the three years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007 and, as a result, has determined that it was not necessary to establish provisions for any such losses. See Note 32 to the 2009 Financial Statements set out elsewhere in this Prospectus, for a more detailed discussion of the Group’s contingent liabilities.

The Group has been involved in the financing of certain projects for the City of Moscow on a competitive tender basis since 1995. In addition, the Group provides financing on an arms-length basis (usually backed by performance guarantees) to companies that carry out contractual work for the City of Moscow. The major borrowers for these projects include leading companies in the Moscow construction industry, such as NPO “Kosmos”, “Mosinzhstroy” and “Moscow Metrostroy”. As more fully described elsewhere in this Prospectus, the Group has extended financing for a number of municipal projects, including the reconstruction of the national park – museum Tsaritsyno, the modernisation of Leningradsky Prospect and, Volokolamskoye Highway, Dmitrovskoye and Varshavskoye Highways, construction of the Third Transportation Ring, the Vnukovo airport, the Lefortovo and Serebryanny Bor tunnels and reconstruction of networks and stations of the Moscow Underground system. The financing of municipal projects is conducted through short-term and medium-term lending, tenders and other guarantees granted to companies that carry out municipal contract work, letters of credit issued to customers and participation in investment projects. As

88 at 31 December 2009, loan products given by the Group to finance municipal construction projects totalled RUB62.6 billion compared with RUB 56.2 billion and RUB 34.7 as at the years ended 31 December 2008 and 2007 respectively. For a more detailed description of the Group’s municipal projects, see “Business – Banking Services and Activities – Corporate Banking – The City of Moscow”.

Cash flows The following table sets out selected cash flow data from the Group’s combined cash flow statements for the years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. For the year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 (audited) (audited) RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Net cash flows from operating activities (72,239,817) 61,768,159 1118.9 5,520,469 Net cash flows from investing activities (4,140,603) (73.6) (15,686,536) 619.4 (2,180,601) Net cash flows from financing activities 18,290,316 32.2 13,839,969 (19) 17,078,286 Cash and cash equivalents at end of period 75,955,760 (43.0) 133,268,662 108.5 63,920,118

Cash flows from operating activities The Group’s cash flows from operating activities for the year ended 31 December 2009 changed to negative RUB 72,239.8 million from cash flows from operating activities of RUB 61,768.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This change resulted from an increase of the Group’s financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. The Group’s cash flows from operating activities for the year ended 31 December 2008 changed to RUB 61,768.2 million from cash flows from operating activities of RUB 5,520.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This change resulted from an increase in cash flows from interest income received by the Group due to growth of its loan portfolio and increased interbank lending.

Cash flows from investing activities The Group’s cash flows from investing activities for the year ended 31 December 2009 changed to negative RUB 4,140.6 million from cash flows from investing activities of negative RUB 15,686.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This change primarily resulted from the Bank’s strategy of not investing heavily in such financial assets during the global economic crisis and its strategy of increasing its stakes in and acquiring subsidiaries and associates in 2009 as compared with previous periods. The Group’s cash flows from investing activities for the year ended 31 December 2008 changed to negative RUB 15,686.5 million from cash flows from investing activities of negative RUB 2,180.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This change resulted from an increase of stakes in and acquisition of subsidiaries and associates.

Cash flows from financing activities The Group’s cash flows from financing activities for the year ended 31 December 2009 increased by 32.2 per cent. to RUB 18,290.3 million from cash flows from financing activities of RUB 13,840.0 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This change resulted primarily from the Bank’s thirteenth share issuance (the “Thirteenth Issuance”) and the receipt of a subordinated loan in the amount of RUB 11,108.0 million from Vnesheconombank. The Group’s cash flows from financing activities for the year ended 31 December 2008 changed by 19 per cent. to RUB 13,840.0 million from cash flows from financing activities of RUB 17,078.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2007. This change resulted primarily from the decrease in the principal amount of Eurobonds issued to RUB 5,762.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2008 from RUB 10,259.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2007.

89 Capital Adequacy The CBR requires banks to maintain a capital adequacy ratio of at least 10.0 per cent. of risk weighted assets, computed on the basis of RAS. The minimum capital adequacy ratio of 8.0 per cent. was established pursuant to the Basel Accord.

The Tier 1 capital and total capital of the Group calculated in accordance with the Basel Accord requirements increased by 33.5 per cent. and 33.7 per cent. to RUB 82,513.1 million and RUB 121,594.7 million as at 31 December 2009, respectively, from RUB 61,801.9 million and RUB 90,913.1 million as at 31 December 2008, respectively. The Tier 1 capital adequacy ratio was 12.8 per cent. and the total capital adequacy ratio was 18.9 per cent. as at 31 December 2009, compared with 9.5 per cent. and 13.9 per cent. as at 31 December 2008, respectively. These increases resulted primarily from the Bank issuing 21,008,403 ordinary shares with the nominal value of RUB 100 per share in the Thirteenth Issuance. The shares were offered at the price of RUB 952 per share both under a pre-emptive rights offer and under open subscription, amounting to RUB 19,999,999 thousand, including share premium of RUB 17,899,159 thousand. The shares were placed with existing shareholders of the Bank who elected to exercise their pre-emptive rights and the remainder of the shares were offered at the open subscription to the public. The Thirteenth Issuance was registered by the CBR on 28 July 2009. Based on the results of the Thirteenth Issuance, the total interest controlled by the Government of the City of Moscow in the Bank of Moscow share capital equalled 63.39 per cent. (consisting of a direct shareholding of the Government of the City of Moscow of 48.11 per cent., and an indirect shareholding through OJSC “Metropolitan Insurance Group” together with its subsidiaries of 15.28 per cent.). The Bank registered its fourteenth issuance (the “Fourteenth Issuance”) of further equity capital and submitted an application for registration with the CBR on 25 February 2010. See “– Recent Developments.”

As at 31 December 2008, the Tier 1 capital and total capital of the Group was RUB 61,801.9 million and RUB 90,913.1 million, respectively, compared to RUB 46,959.9 million and RUB 66,755.7 million as at 31 December 2007, respectively. As at 31 December 2008, the Group’s Tier 1 capital adequacy ratio and total capital adequacy ratio decreased to 9.5 per cent. and 13.9 per cent., from 10.4 per cent. and 14.8 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2007. These decreases resulted primarily from significant growth in assets during the period. In August 2008, the Bank issued 7,358,648 ordinary shares with a nominal value of RUB 100 per share (the “Twelfth Issuance”). The shares were placed with existing shareholders of the Bank who elected to exercise their pre-emptive rights and the remainder of the shares were offered at the open subscription to the public. The Twelfth Issuance was registered by the CBR on 28 August 2008.

The following table sets out the Group’s capitalisation as at 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007 in accordance with IFRS and the Basel Accord, a paper entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards”, dated July 1988 and prepared by the Basel Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervision, as amended.

SEGMENT OPERATIONS The Group uses information on business segments as its primary format for reporting segment information. The Group’s main business segments are treasury, corporate and retail business.

Transactions between business segments are based on commercial terms. In the ordinary course of business the Group’s financial resources are reallocated between business segments. As a result, intersegment allocations are reflected within assets/liabilities of a business segment and the cost of reallocated financial resources is included in the business segment income/expenses.

The following tables set forth certain of the Group’s financial information by reporting segment for the periods indicated: Treasury business segment For the year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Change % RUB in 000 Interest income 8,636,850 1.8 8,480,051 33.5 6,350,438 Interest expense (6,563,961) 161.4 (2,511,322) 68.9 (1,487,053) Gains less losses arising from financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale 8,316,525 – (6,451,790) – 573,455 Gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency (680,101) – 1,563,113 130.6 677,738 –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– Net operating result on banking assets and liabilities 9,709,313–––––––– –––––––– 799.0 1,080,052–––––––– –––––––– (82.3) 6,114,578–––––––– Income/(expense) on re-allocation of funds on demand, maturing in less than one month and part with no stated maturity 4,565,705 – (1,404,263) (60.5) (3,552,026)

The treasury business operations also include the Group’s short-term asset management and the Group’s open positions in foreign currencies, i.e. currency risk management. The treasury business segment of the Group accounted for RUB 4,686.1 million in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2009, compared to RUB 697.9 million loss in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2008 and RUB 2,298.7 million in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2007.

Interest expense for the treasury business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 6,564.0 million compared to RUB 2,511.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase

94 in interest expense in the Treasury business segment was caused by the increase in interest rates payable by the Group on the loans and deposits due to other banks resulting primarily from overall decreases in liquidity in the interbank market and the consequent rise in interest rates, and also by the increase in volume of unsecured loans due to the CBR in the first half of 2009 compared to the year ended 31 December 2008. Gains less losses arising from financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale for the treasury business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 8,316.5 million compared to negative RUB 6,451.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase was primarily the result of increased volume of investment in Rouble-, Dollar- and Euro-denominated securities and gains received from trading in securities in the context of recovery of the Russian stock market in 2009 from the substantial declines which occurred in 2008. Gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency for the treasury business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was negative RUB 680.1 million compared to RUB 1,563.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This decrease was primarily the result of exchange rate market movements, (not fixed losses).

Corporate The corporate business segment includes services associated with servicing settlement and current accounts of legal entities, acceptance of deposits from corporate clients, extension of credit lines in the form of overdrafts, issuance of loans and other types of financing, rendering of investment banking services, trade financing of corporate clients, rendering of structured financing, mergers and acquisitions consulting services. The corporate business segment has historically been the principal component of the Group’s net profit. The corporate business segment of the Group accounted for RUB 784.3 million in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2009, RUB 10,590.9 million in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2008 and RUB 10,493.4 million in net profit for the year ended 31 December 2007.

Interest income for the corporate business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 60,353.0 million compared to RUB 38,536.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase was primarily the result of the Group’s ability to charge higher interest rates on corporate loans resulting primarily from decreases in liquidity in the market and the consequential increase in interest rates. Interest expense for the corporate business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 31,992.8 million compared to RUB 22,079.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase was primarily the result of the increases in interest rates payable by the Group on the corporate accounts and deposits and also the result of the increase in volume of debt securities issued by the Group in 2008 as compared with previous periods.

Provisioning for impairment of due from other banks and loans to customers for the corporate business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 23,515.9 million compared to RUB 3,922.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase was primarily the result of the impact of the economic crisis and to the conservative approach employed by the Group to safeguard against foreseeable economic deterioration.

Retail The retail business segment covers rendering of banking services to individuals, including servicing of accounts and deposits for individuals, fiduciary services, investment management, servicing debit and credit cards, consumer and mortgage lending. Although the Bank believes that the retail segment has a significant potential for growth, the retail segment has been generating modest net profits for periods under the review as compared to the corporate segment of the Group. The retail business segment accounted for RUB 101.0 million in net profit or 14.1 per cent. of total net profit of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009, RUB 1,211.9 million in net profit or 17.4 per cent. of total net profit of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2008, RUB 635.3 million in net profit or 7.2 per cent. of total net profit of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2007.

Interest income for the retail business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 12,899.3 million compared to RUB 14,535.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This

95 decrease was primarily the result of the Group reducing the size of its retail loan portfolio as a safeguard against the anticipated weakening of this customer segment as a result of the global economic crisis.

Interest expense for the retail business segment of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 was RUB 12,156.8 million compared to RUB 8,479.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. This increase was primarily the result of increases in interest rates resulting primarily from decreases in liquidity in the market.

The Group’s transactions not included in the above business segments are disclosed separately.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies of the Group are integral to understanding its results of operations and financial condition. The Group’s critical accounting policies are described in Note 4 to the Group Financial Statements for the years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007. The preparation of the Group Financial Statements requires the Group’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Group’s management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the preparation of the Group Financial Statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

The Group has identified the following accounting policies that it believes are most critical to an understanding of the consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition of the Group. These critical accounting policies require management’s subjective and complex judgment about matters that are inherently uncertain. The Group bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results will differ from estimates under different assumptions and conditions and such differences may be material.

Impairment of financial assets The Group assesses on each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the value of a financial asset item or group of items has been impaired. Impairment losses are recognised in the consolidated statement of income as they are incurred as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. If an entity determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment.

(1) Impairment of due from other banks and loans to customers For due from other banks and loans to customers carried at amortised cost, the Group first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists individually for financial assets that are individually significant or collectively for financial assets that are not individually significant.

Objective evidence that due from other banks and loans to customers are impaired includes observable data that comes to the attention of the Group. More information about the observable data the Group uses can be found in Note 4 to the 2009 Financial Statements, the 2008 Financial Statements and the 2007 Financial Statements.

If the Group determines that no objective evidence of impairment exists for an individually assessed financial asset, whether significant or not, it includes the asset in a group of financial assets with similar credit risk characteristics and collectively assesses them for impairment.

For the purpose of a collective evaluation of impairment, financial assets are grouped on the basis of the Group’s internal grading system that considers credit risk characteristics such as asset type, industry, geographical location, collateral type, past-due status, statistical information about actual

96 losses of the Group (loans written off against allowances for impairment) and other relevant factors. The characteristics chosen are relevant to the estimation of future cash flows for groups of such assets by being indicative of the debtors’ ability to pay all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the assets being evaluated.

The main criterion used for determining objective evidence of loss from impairment of due from other banks and loans to customers representing collectively measured financial assets is availability of observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial assets in the group. Such information may include adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group (for example, an increased number of delayed payments or an increased number of credit card borrowers who have reached their credit limit and are paying the minimum monthly amount), national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group (for example, an increase in the unemployment rate in the geographical area of the borrowers, a decrease in property prices for mortgages in the relevant area, a decrease in oil prices for loan assets to oil producers, or adverse changes in industry conditions that affect the borrowers in the group).

If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of the provision account and the amount of the loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. If a loan has variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate. The calculation of the present value of the estimated future cash flows of a collateralized asset reflects the cash flows that may result from foreclosure less costs for obtaining and selling the collateral, whether or not foreclosure is probable.

Future cash flows on a group of financial assets that are collectively evaluated for impairment are estimated on the basis of historical loss experience for assets with credit risk characteristics similar to those in the group or on the basis historical information on collections of overdue debts. Historical loss experience is adjusted on the basis of current observable data to reflect the effects of current conditions that did not affect the years on which the historical loss experience is based and to remove the effects of conditions in the historical period that do not exist currency. Estimates of changes in the future cash flows reflect, and are discretionally consistent with, changes in related observable data from year to year (such as, changes in unemployment rate, property prices, commodity prices, payment status, or other factors that are indicative of incurred losses in the group and their magnitude). The methodology and assumptions used for estimating future cash flows are reviewed regularly to reduce any differences between estimated losses and actual loss experience.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance account through the consolidated statement of income.

Uncollectible assets are written off against the related allowance for impairment after all the necessary procedures to recover the asset have been completed and the amount of the loss has been determined. The carrying value of impaired financial assets is not reduced directly.

In accordance with the Russian legislation, in case of a write off of the uncollectible loan and relating interest, the Group shall take necessary and adequate steps, envisaged by law, custom of business turnover or agreement, to collect this outstanding loan. The write-off of uncollectible loan and relating interest is justified if there are documents to prove that the borrower failed to fulfil obligations to its creditors within the period not less than one year till the date when the decision was taken to write off the loan.

97 (2) Impairment of financial assets available for sale The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that an asset or a group of assets available for sale is impaired.

In case of investments in equity instruments classified as available for sale, objective evidence would include a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment below its cost. This determination of what is significant or prolonged requires judgment. According to the Group, a 20 per cent. decrease in the fair value of the financial asset below its cost is a significant decline and decrease in the financial asset’s value for over 6 months is a prolonged decline. In making this judgment, the Group evaluates among other factors, the volatility in share price. Cumulative loss is measured as a difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that investment previously recognized in the statement of income transfer from equity to the statement of income.

Impairment losses on equity instruments are not reversed through the consolidated statement of income: increases in the fair value after impairment are recognised directly in equity. If in subsequent periods the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available for sale increases, and such increase can be objectively rated to the event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in the consolidated statement of income, the impairment loss is reversed through the profit and loss accounts of the current period.

In case of debt instruments classified as available for sale, impairment is assessed based on the same criteria as financial assets carried at amortised cost. Interest income is based on the reduced carrying amount and is accrued using the rate of interest used to discount future cash flows for the purpose for measuring the impairment loss. The interest income is recorded within interest income in the consolidated statement of income.

Income and expense recognition Interest income and expense are recorded in the consolidated statement of income for all debt instruments on an accrual basis using the effective interest method. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Group’s management estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all commissions and fees paid or received by the parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs, and other premiums or discounts.

Interest income includes coupons earned on fixed-income financial assets and accrued discount and premium on promissory notes and other discounted instruments. When loans become doubtful of collection they are written down to their recoverable amounts and interest income is thereafter recognised based on the rate of interest that was used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the recoverable amount.

Financial assets The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: (i) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, (ii) loans and receivables (including due from other banks and loans to customers), (iii) financial assets available for sale, and (iv) investments held to maturity. As a matter of the Group’s policy, the Group determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition. Classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the purpose for which they were acquired and their characteristics.

98 Reclassifications of financial assets The Group shall not reclassify a financial instrument into or out of the fair value through profit or loss category while it is held or issued, except rare circumstances when such reclassification is permitted for non-derivative financial instruments, other than those designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition, if there is no active market for such financial instrument. In this case debt financial instruments measured at fair value through progress or loss may be reclassified into financial assets available for sale, investments held to maturity and loans and receivables depending on the designated purpose.

In exceptional circumstances, such as the absence of an active market, financial assets available for sale representing debt instruments may be reclassified into investments held to maturity or loans to customers, if the entity has the intention to hold that financial asset for the foreseeable future or until maturity.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss include trading securities and derivative financial instruments. Trading securities represent securities acquired principally for the purpose of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price or trader’s margin, or securities included in a portfolio where a pattern of short-term trading exists. The Group classifies securities as trading securities when it intends to sell them within a short period of time after purchase.

Trading securities are recorded at fair value. Interest earned on trading securities is reflected in the consolidated statement of income using the effective interest method as interest income. Dividend income is recorded within. dividends received when the Group’s right to receive dividends is established and dividends are likely to be received. All other elements of the changes in the fair value of trading securities and gains or losses on derecognition of trading securities are recorded in consolidated statement of income as gains less losses arising from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Loans to customers and due from other banks Loans to customers include non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, other than: (i) those that the Group intends to sell immediately or in the near term, which shall be classified as held for trading, and those that the entity upon initial recognition designates as at fair value through profit or loss; (ii) those that the Group upon initial recognition designates as available for sale, other than because of credit deterioration, which shall be classified as available for sale; and (iii) those for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment, other than because of credit deterioration, which shall be classified as available for sale.

Loans to customers are initially recorded at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration given. Subsequently, they are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The Group adopts accounting policies applicable to loans to customers and provision for loan impairment in respect of the Group’s placements with other banks (due from other banks).

Financial assets available for sale Financial assets available for sale are non-derivative financial assets that are classified as investment securities which the Group intends to hold for an indefinite period of time that may be sold in response to needs for liquidity or changes in interest rates, exchange rates or equity prices. The Group’s management determines the appropriate classification of financial assets available for sale at the trade date.

Financial assets available for sale are initially recognised at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration given.

Interest earned on debt securities available for sale is determined using the effective interest method and reflected in the consolidated statement of income as interest income.

99 BUSINESS

OVERVIEW The Bank is one of the largest commercial and retail banks in the Russian Federation, as measured by net assets, capital, loan portfolio and volume of retail client deposits. According to Kommersant Dengi magazine, a Russian business weekly, as at 1 January 2010, the Bank was the third largest Russian bank in terms of the volume of retail deposits and the fifth largest Russian bank in terms of net assets, capital and loan portfolio and, as at 30 August 2010, ranked 25th in terms of market capitalisation out of the top 100 Russian companies (compared to 26th in 2009 and 29th in 2009). The Bank offers a wide range of banking services, including corporate, SME and retail lending, deposit, payment and account services, foreign exchange and foreign trade operations, cash handling services, operations with precious metals, asset management and private banking, investment banking, securities trading, custody services and other ancillary services to retail clients and to commercial and governmental entities. In all areas of its business, the Bank is engaged in continually developing and launching new products and services in order to be able to offer a more diversified package of banking services to its current and potential customers.

The primary business areas of the Group are:

• Asset management and Private banking – which comprises private asset management services, fund management services, mutual and pension funds and private banking; and

• Treasury and proprietary securities trading activities – which comprises securities trading, foreign exchange, money market transactions, operations with precious metals and custody services.

As at 1 May 2010, the Bank operated 134 offices and sub-offices in all administrative districts of Moscow and in large towns of the Moscow region. In addition, the Group has 474 desks in post offices in Moscow and the Moscow region, which distribute the Group’s retail products. As at 1 May 2010, the Group operated 68 regional branches, which supervised a further 69 full-service sub-branches, and 113 sub-branches providing retail services and 8 cash offices located in the territory of the Russian Federation. As at 1 May 2010, the Group had a presence in 60 regions of the Russian Federation, including major cities across the Russian Federation from St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad in the North West to Vladivostok and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in the Russian Far East. The regional presence of the Group is enhanced through co-operation with local banks, such as OAO AKB “Zarechye” (Kazan, Republic of Tatarstan), in which the Group holds a minority interest. See also “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Overview – Principal Activities”.

100 AS “Eesti Krediidipank” in Tallinn, Republic of Estonia (92.00 per cent. owned), BM Bank LLC Ukraine, in Kiev, Republic of Ukraine (100.00 per cent. owned) and Bank of Moscow j.s.c. – Belgrade, in Belgrade, Republic of Serbia (100.00 per cent. owned). The Group also has correspondent accounts for approximately 101 domestic banks and maintains correspondent relationships with approximately 950 foreign banks.

COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS The Bank believes its strong market position is attributable to a combination of the following competitive advantages:

• Experienced management. The Group’s senior management team has extensive experience in the banking industry and many of them have been working together for several years. Members of senior management have had experience working in the banking sector in the Russian Federation, other CIS countries and outside the CIS. For further information on the Group’s management, see “Management”.

101 BUSINESS STRATEGY The Bank’s strategic objective is to strengthen its position among the largest Russian banks, as measured by key business indicators such as profit, return on assets, return on equity, net interest margin, market share and growth rates in core business sectors while also maintaining its stable capital and liquidity position and conservative approach to risk management. To achieve this, in April 2008, the Bank’s management approved a new three year general strategy for the Group. However, in light of the impact of the global economic crisis on the global and Russian economies, the Bank decided to review its strategic and business planning on an annual basis. This approach will take effect in respect of the financial years ending 31 December 2009 and 31 December 2010. The strategy for 2010 was adopted in late 2009 and focuses on increased business efficiency, maintaining tighter controls on costs and expenses, maintaining growth rates in line with market trends, building customer relationships and increasing cross-selling.

The Group’s key strategic goals include:

Attracting additional corporate business. The Group expects its corporate lending to continue to grow in the medium-term, with respect to both large corporates and SMEs. The Bank believes that the continued diversification of its customer base helps it to attain a more stable funding base. Although the risk of lending in the SME sector is higher than in the large corporate sector, the Bank believes that the SME sector offers strong potential for growth and that the increased risk of this sector can be managed through controls over the quality of the loan portfolio (see “Asset, Liability and Risk Management” and “– Lending Policies and

102 Procedures”). One of the ways in which the Bank expects to grow its SME loan portfolio is through developing relationships with SMEs in the Russian regions, that previously borrowed from some of the smaller regional Russian banks which have faced difficulties in dealing with the effects of the global economic crisis and the CBR’s and Russian Government’s response to it.

Developing its strong franchise and brand name in the Russian Federation. The Group has one of the most geographically diverse branch networks in the Russian Federation, where over 90 per cent. of the Group’s operations were concentrated as at 31 December 2009, and is thus able to market itself widely in the Russian banking market. The Group, whose loans to borrowers in Moscow and the Moscow region represented 45.8 per cent. of the Group’s aggregate loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009, compared with 46.1 per cent. as at 31 December 2008, is assisted by its affiliation with the City of Moscow. However, in addition, the Group aims to leverage its franchise and brand in growing its business in all regions of the Russian Federation. For example, the Group aims to expand its SME loan portfolio by establishing relationships with SMEs that formerly borrowed from smaller regional Russian banks which have been adversely affected by the global economic crisis and the additional regulatory controls on Russian banks.

103 HISTORY OF THE BANK The Bank was originally registered under Russian legislation as Open Joint Stock Company “Mosraschet Bank” in March 1994. It received its initial banking licence on 15 March 1994. The Bank’s name was changed to “Moscow municipal bank – Bank of Moscow (open joint stock company)” on 22 March 1995. The annual general shareholders’ meeting held on 25 June 2004 approved a change of the Bank’s name to “Joint stock commercial bank – Bank of Moscow (open joint stock company)”. This name change was registered by the CBR on 13 September 2004. The Bank currently operates on the basis of general banking licence No. 2748, issued by the CBR on 14 October 2004. The Bank also holds a professional securities market participant licence and a licence for trading in precious metals. The Bank’s principal registration number recorded in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities is 1027700159497. The current statutory and other documents of the Bank may be inspected at its registered office at 8/15, bldg. 3, Rozhdestvenka Street, Moscow 107996, Russian Federation. The telephone number of the Bank is +7 495 925 8000.

In March 1995, the Mayor of the City of Moscow issued an order for the City of Moscow to purchase shares in the Bank. Since 1995, the Government of the City of Moscow, represented directly by the City of Moscow Property Department (prior to 1998, represented by the Moscow Property Fund and the City of Moscow Property Management Committee), and indirectly by OJSC “Metropolitan Insurance Group” together with its subsidiaries, has been the majority shareholder of the Bank. As at the date of this Prospectus, the City of Moscow directly owned 46.48 per cent., and OJSC “Metropolitan Insurance Group” held 17.32 per cent. of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Bank. The Bank benefits from a written confirmation periodically re-issued by the City of Moscow (it was last re-issued in January 2007) confirming the City of Moscow’s readiness to provide comprehensive assistance and support for the conclusion and subsequent performance of the agreements which the Bank has entered into or may enter into in the future with foreign governmental and non-governmental institutions. The written confirmation is not legally binding on the City of Moscow and does not constitute a guarantee by the City of Moscow of the Bank’s payment obligations in respect of loans granted to the Bank or otherwise. In addition, no funds are specifically reserved in the City of Moscow’s municipal budget for the payment of any financial obligations of the City of Moscow arising out of this confirmation.

The Group competes on a competitive tender basis with Sberbank, VTB and Russian Agricultural Bank for funds from the City of Moscow.

BRANCH NETWORK The Group’s former focus in developing its branch network has been to make its banking services widely available throughout the Russian Federation and to optimise its branch network on the basis of economic and social factors. Now that the Group has increased its presence in Russia in areas where it has identified current or potential demand for banking products and locations with greater competition – primarily large cities and regional centres – it will concentrate on optimising the efficiency of its network to offer a wider range of banking products to a wider range of customers. It has also concentrated on increasing the number of branches and sub-branches that can offer a wider range of banking services and service a more diversified customer base.

The Group has one of the most geographically diverse branch networks in the Russian Federation, stretching from St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad in the North West to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in the Russian Far East. As at 1 May 2010, the Group operated 134 offices and sub-offices in all administrative districts of Moscow and in large towns of the Moscow region. In addition, the Group has 474 desks in post offices in Moscow and the Moscow region, which distribute the Group’s retail products. As at 1 May 2010, the Group operated 68 regional branches, which supervised a further 69 full-service sub-branches, and 113 sub-branches providing retail services and 8 cash offices located in the territory of the Russian Federation.

In addition to the Group’s regional network, as at 31 December 2009 the Group’s network also includes Open Joint Stock Company Commercial Bank “MOSVODOKANALBANK” (three sub-branches in Russia), Bezhitsa Bank (two branches in Russia), “Bank Moscow-Minsk” (five branches and 41 sub- branches in the Republic of Belarus), AS “Latvijas Biznesa banka” in (one sub-branch in the Republic of

104 Latvia), AS “Eesti Krediidipank” (8 branches and 13 sub-branches in the Republic of Estonia), and BM Bank LLC Ukraine (46 sub-branches in the Republic of Ukraine).

The Group intends that any further development of its sales platform will occur through organic growth, but the Group does not exclude the possibility that it may invest funds in the further acquisition of other banks or large branch networks or separate branches owned by other banks, if suitable investment opportunities arise.

COMPETITION The Group faces competition from the leading domestic banks in each of the business areas and regions of the Russian Federation in which it operates, and also from a number of foreign banks in certain business areas and regions of the Russian Federation. According to the CBR, as at 1 August 2010, 1,160 banks and other non-bank credit organisations entitled to carry out banking operations were registered in the Russian Federation. The Russian banking industry is highly concentrated in Moscow and the Moscow region, where 57.6 per cent. of all Russian banks were based as at 1 August 2010, according to the CBR. The Russian banking sector is also characterised by a high level of concentration of capital. According to the CBR, as at 1 August 2010, the 200 largest Russian banks held 93.8 per cent. of the banking sector’s total assets.

In the corporate banking sector, the Group competes to attract corporate clients in order to develop substantial business volumes and to develop long-term working relationships. In this segment the Group competes with the leading Russian state-owned banks. On a regional level, the Group faces competition from other national Russian banks with strong branch networks. The Group also faces competition from foreign banks in the corporate lending market since they are often able to offer potential borrowers better lending terms, including lower interest rates as a result of being able to access a broader range of international finance sources. The Bank considers its primary competitors among Russian banks in the overall corporate and retail financing sectors to be Sberbank, VTB, Gazprombank, Rosbank, Alfa-Bank and MDM Bank and among foreign banks to be Unicredit, Raiffeisenbank and Citibank. The Bank views Sberbank, VTB and Rosbank as major competitors in the retail loan sector. In the retail deposit sector, the Bank considers its primary competitors to be Sberbank, VTB, Gazprombank, Rosbank, Alfa-Bank, Raiffeisenbank, MDM Bank and Uralsib. In the investment banking sector, the Bank considers its primary competitors to be Sberbank, VTB, Rosbank, Troika Dialog, Renaissance Capital, Unicredit and Raiffeisenbank.

Although the Group competes with the same group of Russian banks across its retail products as it does on the corporate side, it also faces competition from foreign banks such as Société Generale, Raiffeisenbank, Citibank and HSBC in respect of private banking products and services offered to high net worth retail customers. While the foreign banks have diminished their activity in Russia during the crisis, they are expected to re-launch their efforts as the economy stabilises. The Bank believes that the retail services market in 2010 has been influenced by a number of factors, including increased competition from the leading domestic retail market operators, primarily Sberbank and VTB.

The Bank believes that over the next few years the Russian banking environment will continue to be characterised by increased competition, decreasing profit margins and tightening of banking supervision, which is likely to result in further consolidation of the Russian banking sector. In addition, the Bank believes that to remain successful, leading Russian banks will have to increase their capitalisation, maintain their branch networks, and offer corporate and retail banking products that are competitive with those provided by foreign competitors.

The Group intends to focus its strategy on the further development of its product range, on improving its recurring profitability, and on increasing the efficiency of its existing Moscow and regional network, which it considers to be one of its competitive advantages in the retail banking market. The Group also intends, to the extent market conditions permit, to maintain the interest rates it offers to its retail and corporate clients at a level comparable to other major banks operating in the Russian market.

In March 2010 the Bank issued Eurobonds amounting to USD 750 million with a maturity date of five years and a coupon 6.699 per cent.

The Group expects to continue raising additional funds in multiple currencies for the development of its business operations. See, however “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry” for a discussion of external factors outside the Group’s control which may affect the Group’s ability to do so.

Domestic Borrowings The Group borrows funds on the Russian domestic market from time to time.

In February 2008, the Bank issued RUB 10.0 billion bonds maturing in five years. In August 2008, the Bank placed a RUB 10 billion bond issue maturing in three years.

In November and December 2009 the Group raised loans from OJSC Russian Development Bank in the amounts of RUB 856.0 million and RUB 1,446.0 million maturing on 30 October 2012 and 30 November 2012, respectively.

106 Proprietary Securities Activities The Group engages in securities activities for its own account. It engages in trading operations on all the major Russian stock exchanges, the London Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange, and participates in Government securities auctions conducted by the CBR and in sale and repurchase (“repo”) transactions with large Russian banks and foreign banks. The Group has conducted trading and investment activities in the following Russian Government securities: federal bonds (“OFZs”), regional bonds, federal currency bonds, bonds issued by municipal authorities and Russian Federation Eurobonds. In the wake of the volatility in the global capital markets, the Group implemented various measures in order to address the unfavourable developments in the global financial markets, including a rise in discounts for securities eligible for repo transactions, the introduction of more restrictive requirements for the acceptance of counterparties’ risks related to repo transactions, a reduction in the tenor of limits for repo operations, and the closure of limits for some issuers. The Group has also adopted a more conservative securities trading policy in the light of the continued global economic crisis and has sought to streamline its portfolio to reduce holdings in equity securities and to increase holdings in Russian federal and municipal debt securities and bonds issued by leading Russian companies. However, starting from summer 2009, in the context of the improvements in the global and local financial markets and stock markets in particular, the Group has been gradually enlarging its list of counterparties and issuers eligible for trading operations.

As at 31 December 2009, Russian Government securities (including securities of the Russian Federation and its subjects and local authorities) accounted for 36.6 per cent. of the aggregate amount of the Group’s securities portfolio (compared to 6.3 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 30.2 per cent. as at 31 December 2007), Rouble denominated Russian Government securities accounted for more than 76.0 per cent. of the Group’s Russian Government securities portfolio (compared to 72.9 per cent. as at 31 December 2008, 52.9 per cent. as at 31 December 2007) and U.S. Dollar-denominated Russian Government securities accounted for 20.8 per cent. of the Group’s Russian Government securities portfolio (compared to 27.1 per cent. as at 31 December 2008, 47.1 per cent. as at 31 December 2007) and Euro-denominated bonds of the Russian Federation’s subjects and local authorities accounted for 3.2 per cent. of the Group’s Russian Government securities portfolio. The Group did not have any Euro-denominated bonds of the Russian Federation’s subjects and local authorities in the years ended 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss”.

The Group also conducts trading and investment activities in foreign government securities and bonds issued by foreign governments and central banks. As at 31 December 2009, foreign government securities accounted for 3.3 per cent. of the aggregate amount of the Group’s securities portfolio compared to 2.3 per cent. as at 31 December 2008. The Group conducts proprietary trading activities in corporate bonds (including Eurobonds) and equities. Corporate Rouble bonds and equities accounted for 38.5 per cent. and 3.3 per cent., respectively, of the aggregate amount of the Group’s securities portfolio as at 31 December 2009, 83.0 per cent. and 2.7 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2008 and 49.5 per cent. and 9.3 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2007. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss”.

Foreign currency corporate bonds constituted 17.1 per cent., 3.6 per cent. and 3.9 per cent. of the Group’s securities portfolio as at 31 December 2009, 31 December 2008, and 31 December 2007, respectively. The value of the Group’s securities portfolio was RUB 118.0 billion as at 31 December 2009, compared to RUB 34.7 billion, and RUB 51.2 billion as at 31 December 2008, and 2007 respectively. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss”.

Foreign Exchange and Money Market Activities The Group is one of the leading operators in the Russian foreign exchange and money markets and focuses on spot foreign exchange and short-term deposit operations on the inter-bank market.

During the year ended 31 December 2009, the Group received total funds of USD 0.24 billion, EUR 3.7 billion, and RUB 589.8 billion in borrowed funds, compared to USD 1.2 billion, EUR 1.9 billion and RUB 258.8 billion for the year ended 31 December 2008 and USD 3.2 billion, EUR 0.6 billion and RUB 232.0 billion for the year ended 31 December 2007 and it placed deposits of USD 65.3 billion,

See also “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Net income arising from gains less losses from dealing in foreign currency and precious metals”.

The Group’s main counterparties in the Russian foreign exchange and money markets are Sberbank, VTB, Gazprombank and other domestic top-tier banks; its main counterparties among foreign banks are Standard Chartered, LBBW, RBS, BNP Paribas, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank AG, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, ING Group, Raiffeisenbank and other large international banks.

BANKING SERVICES AND ACTIVITIES The Group offers a wide range of banking services, which are broadly divided into three key business areas: (i) retail banking, (ii) corporate and investment banking, and (iii) asset management. In 2004, the Bank joined the Mandatory Deposit Insurance System, which is managed by the State Corporation Deposit Insurance Agency. The activities of the Mandatory Deposit Insurance System are provided for by federal laws and regulations. The limit of coverage of the Group’s liabilities to private customers is up to RUB 700,000 per depositor in the event of bankruptcy or withdrawal of the Bank’s licence for banking operations by the CBR.

Retail Banking The Group offers its retail banking clients a wide range of financial products and services. These include current (demand) and deposit (term) accounts both in Russian Roubles and foreign currencies, loan services, including overdraft facilities, mortgage loans, consumer loans, car loans, credit and debit card services (as a member of VISA International, MasterCard Worldwide and the Russian payment system Union Card and as a sub-licensee of Diner’s Club International), money transfers, mutual fund management and internet and telephone banking. As at 31 December 2009, the Group was servicing over 9.7 million retail customers compared to 9.6 million and 8.2 million as at 31 December 2008 and 2007 respectively.

Retail lending The Group provides a wide range of loan products to retail customers. As at 31 December 2009, loans to retail clients accounted for RUB 74.7 billion, or 14.0 per cent. of the Group’s net loan portfolio, compared with RUB 106.6 billion (20.6 per cent. of the Group’s net loan portfolio) as at 31 December 2008 and 72.5 billion (20.6 per cent. of the Group’s net loan portfolio) as at 31 December 2007. The Group’s net retail loans decreased in the year ended 31 December 2009 by 29.9 per cent. in response to the global economic crisis and a decrease in demand for retail products and in line with the Group’s conservative approach to risk management given the higher risks associated with retail customers. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Interest income from loans to customers”.

The Group currently extends the following types of loan to retail customers:

• Consumer loans. The Group grants unsecured loans for consumer purposes. The loan amount available varies from RUB 70,000 to RUB 3,000,000 depending on the quality of the borrower and the term can be for up to five years. The borrowers are assessed primarily by a numerical score system and then by an authorised officer. When applying for a consumer loan, a borrower must submit to the Group confirmation of his monthly disposable income. Where a borrower provides the Bank with personal guarantees from two third parties, the interest rate charged to the borrower on the loan is decreased by three per cent. The interest rate is reduced by a further three per cent. if the borrower provides a life insurance policy. As of 31 December 2009, the total amount of the Group’s consumer loan portfolio was RUB 43.2 billion, which constituted 48.9 per cent. of the Group’s gross retail loan portfolio, compared to RUB 57.1 billion (50.5 per cent.) as at 31 December 2008 and RUB 35.6 billion (47.7 per cent.) as at 31 December 2007.

108 • Mortgage loans. The Group’s mortgage loan programme was launched in 2002 and has developed further as a result of mortgage loan legislation adopted at the end of 2004. Mortgage loans are extended for terms of between three and 30 years for the purchase of real estate existing on the secondary market or that is under construction. Mortgage loans are offered in Roubles, U.S. Dollars or Euros. As at 31 December 2009, the amount of the Group’s mortgage portfolio was RUB 27.5 billion which constituted 31.1 per cent. of the Group’s gross retail loan portfolio, compared to RUB 30.9 billion (27.4 per cent.) and, RUB 17.3 billion (23.2 per cent.) as at 31 December 2008 and 2007.

• Car loans. The Group’s car loan programme was launched in 2002. Car loans are provided for terms of between six months and seven years, up to a maximum of RUB 5.0 million (or its equivalent in USD or EUR) and the borrower is required to pay up-front 15 per cent. of the purchase price of the car. Such loans are secured by a pledge of the purchased cars. As of 31 December 2009, the total amount of the Group’s car loan portfolio was RUB 10.4 billion, compared to RUB 15.7 billion as at 31 December 2008, and RUB 13.8 billion as at 31 December 2007. As at 31 December 2009, the Group’s car loan portfolio represented 11.8 per cent. of the Group’s gross retail loan portfolio, compared to 13.9 per cent. and 18.5 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively. In March 2009 the Russian Government started a car-purchasing programme for purchasers of certain new Russian-made cars. The programme offers purchasers of such cars with a Government-subsidised loan for such cars. The Group started accepting applications under this programme in March 2010. The terms of such loans are generally similar to those of loans under the Group’s standard car loan programme.

• Express (scoring) loans. In 2003, the Group introduced express loans, also known as “scoring loans”, for which the borrower’s creditworthiness is assessed by a numerical score. Before the onset of the global economic crisis, it typically took 30 to 40 minutes to extend a scoring loan. However, since October 2008, due to the impact of the global economic crisis which led to a significant proportion of scoring loans being written off as uncollectible in 2007 and the first nine months of 2008 (as to which see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Factors affecting the Group’s financial condition and results of operations – Provisions for impairment”), the verification period was extended to one day to disburse a scoring loan. These loans are unsecured. The loan amounts range from RUB 20,000 to RUB 100,000 in Moscow or RUB 70,000 in other regions, and can be extended for a term of up to 24 months. As at 31 December 2009, the amount of the Group’s scoring loan portfolio was RUB 1.2 billion, which constituted 1.4 per cent. of the Group’s gross retail loan portfolio. As at 31 December 2008, the amount of the Group’s scoring loan portfolio was RUB 3.4 billion compared to RUB 4.2 billion as at 31 December 2007.

• Bank card overdrafts. Overdrafts are available to holders of salary cards and to holders of Muscovite Social Cards and cards issued under payroll direct deposit plans. These overdrafts are unsecured. An overdraft may not exceed 50 per cent. (to holders of salary cards) or 98 per cent. (to holders of Muscovite Social Cards) of the average monthly income amount deposited during the three most recent months. The uninterrupted debt period for overdrafts is 65 days to holders of salary cards and 80 days to holders of Muscovite Social Cards. The term of contract is equal to the effective period of the relevant card.

• Credit cards. The Group introduced credit card loans in 2004. Similar to express (scoring) loans and overdrafts, these loans are unsecured. The loan amounts range from RUB 20,000 to RUB 350,000 (or its equivalent in US Dollars or Euros) depending on the type of credit card. The credit limit of a credit card may not exceed 300 per cent. of the average monthly disposable income of the cardholder. A grace period of 50 days is established for all holders of credit cards. As at 31 December 2009, the amount of the Group’s credit card loan portfolio was RUB 5.9 billion, which constituted 6.6 per cent. of the Group’s gross retail loan portfolio. As at 31 December 2008, the amount of the Group’s credit card loan portfolio was RUB 5.8 billion compared to RUB 3.6 billion as at 31 December 2007.

In the context of the global economic crisis, since 2008 the Group has introduced a system of centralised underwriting in respect of consumer loans, express (scoring) loans and, in Moscow and the Moscow region, in respect of credit cards.

109 With demand for retail lending products starting to develop again, the Group is reviewing its lending policies to take account of the profiling experience it has acquired during the financial crisis, factoring in increased yield to cover the higher risk of lending in this sector at the present time.

Retail deposits The Group offers a variety of interest-bearing bank accounts designed for different categories of retail customers, including high income earners, working individuals and pensioners. The Group’s deposit accounts include current and term accounts and are denominated in Russian Roubles, U.S. Dollars and Euros. Account terms vary from demand deposits to term deposits of up to three years, which may be extended, once or multiple times, depending on the type of account. The Bank believes that it is well- positioned in the retail deposit market. According to Kommersant Dengi magazine, as at 1 January 2010, the Group was the third largest bank in the Russian Federation after Sberbank and VTB Group in terms of the volume of deposits from retail clients.

As at 31 December 2009, the Group had RUB 177.5 billion in retail deposits (representing 41.5 per cent. of overall deposits), including RUB 33.3 billion (representing 7.8 per cent. of customer accounts) in demand deposits and RUB 144.1 billion (representing 33.7 per cent. of customer accounts) in term deposits. As at 31 December 2008, the Group had RUB 151.2 billion in retail deposits (representing 37.2 per cent. of customer accounts), including RUB 29.8 billion in demand deposits (representing 7.3 per cent. of customer accounts) and RUB 121.4 billion in term deposits (representing 29.9 per cent. of customer accounts). As at 31 December 2007, the Group had RUB 126.7 billion in retail deposits (representing 36.1 per cent. of customer accounts), including RUB 27.5 billion (representing 7.8 per cent. of customer accounts) in demand deposits and RUB 99.1 billion (representing 28.3 per cent. of customer accounts) in term deposits. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

The aggregate amount of deposits from retail clients constituted 24.0 per cent. of the Group’s total liabilities as at 31 December 2009, compared with 20.6 per cent. as at 31 December 2008, and 26.4 per cent. as at 31 December 2007.

As at 31 December 2009, 47.0 per cent. of the Group’s total retail deposits was in Russian Roubles compared with 42.9 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 69.4 per cent. as at 31 December 2007. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry – A significant part of the Group’s funding is based on deposits that can be withdrawn on demand and the Group has liquidity risks which may be further exacerbated by the current instability of the global and Russian economies and banking sectors”.

Banking cards The Group issues both debit and credit cards, including those with Chip-and-PIN technology, to its retail customers. The Bank is a member of VISA International, MasterCard Worldwide, the Russian payment system Union Card and a sub-licensee of Diner’s Club International, and accordingly issues and services VISA, MasterCard, Union Card and Diner’s Club International cards. The Group has its own processing centre which is certified by VISA and MasterCard. The Group also issues virtual cards known as VISA Virtuon designed for those customers of the Group who purchase goods and services via the Internet. For its wealthier customers, the Group also issues Visa Infinite cards, the most prestigious card available via the International Payment System, Visa International, with a minimum credit limit of USD 20,000. The number of plastic cards issued by the Group (including Muscovite Social Cards) as at 31 December 2009 was approximately 13.3 million, compared with approximately 11.0 million as at 31 December 2008, and 8.7 million as at 31 December 2007. The Group expects its business in this segment to continue to grow in line with the market.

Through the Group’s automatic teller machines (“ATMs”), it is possible for retail customers to make utilities payments and certain other payments, including payments for mobile communications services.

ATMs and Internet banking The Group seeks to provide its retail banking clients with easy access to their accounts. Retail customers can conduct their banking through the Group’s branches, at ATMs, over the internet and through the Group’s call centre. The Group is continuing to expand its ATM network and, as at 31 December 2009, it had 1,804 ATMs in operation (including 690 ATMs in Moscow and 1,114 ATMs in the regions), compared to 1,794 ATMs in operation (including 679 ATMs in Moscow and 1,115 ATMs in the regions) as at 31 December 2008 and 1,588 ATMs in operation (including 650 ATMs in Moscow and 938 ATMs in the regions) as at 31 December 2007.

Private Banking The Group offers its products and services to high net worth retail customers on a “Private Client” basis. The Group currently offers three tiers of individual asset management services for wealthy clients and high net worth individuals:

• “Privilege”, which is for clients depositing at least USD 1,000,000 in assets with the Group;

• “Private”, which is for clients depositing at least USD 200,000 in assets with the Group; and

• “Premium”, which is for clients depositing at least USD 50,000 in assets with the Group.

These services offer tailored asset management products, different fee scales and varying ranges of customer benefits. While private banking is an emerging segment in the Russian Federation, the Bank believes this business area has good growth potential and expects to continue to diversify and increase the amount of assets under the Group’s management. The Bank believes that retail deposits held via private banking products generally represent a stable and reliable source of funding and income for the Group. As at 31 December 2009, the total amount of private assets held in trust by the Group was RUB 60.6 billion as compared to RUB 51.8 billion and RUB 37.3 billion as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Asset Management Since 2003, the Group has developed its asset management business in three key areas: individual asset management for high net worth clients, mutual fund management and pension fund management (in association with its strategic partner, OOO “Pension Reserve”). When the Group began providing asset

111 management services in early 2003, the asset management business in the Russian Federation was underdeveloped. As at 31 December 2009, the Group had a total asset management portfolio of RUB 15.9 billion, compared to RUB 13.3 billion as at 31 December 2008, and RUB 16.9 billion as at 31 December 2007. The increase in the Group’s total asset management portfolio between 31 December 2008 and 30 September 2009 resulted primarily from the growth in the Russian stock market which began in the second quarter of 2009. The Bank believes that, while the market for asset management services is growing following a steep decline during the height of the global economic crisis, such market has not yet achieved the levels of its pre-crisis height.

Strategic asset management decisions are taken by the Bank’s Investment Committee, which consists of representatives from the Management Board, the Treasury Department, the Asset Management Department and the Internal Audit Department. The Group’s major competitors in the personal banking market are Alfa Bank, Troika Dialog, UralSib, Raiffeisen Capital, Capital Group and UFG Invest.

Individual Asset Management The Group offers individual (portfolio) asset management products to high net worth customers depositing at least USD 100,000 in assets with the Group. The Group invests customers’ funds in the securities market. The Group offers asset management services on the basis of a professional securities market participant’s licence for portfolio management operations issued by the FSFM.

The Group invests its customers’ funds in various financial instruments on the stock market and in other segments of the financial markets (state treasury bills, federal loan bonds, shares, Russian Eurobonds, municipal bonds, corporate bonds, etc.). Customers choose any of the strategies offered by the Group or they can opt to develop an individual strategy for investing their capital with a personal manager. The Group offers the following special investment strategies, which permit customers to choose the most suitable risk/profit balance depending on the amount of investment and the customer’s appetite for risk.

The following basic investment strategies are targeted at investors with assets of at least USD 100,000 or more, and over investment terms starting with a minimum of six months. Key investment areas are shares and bonds of Russian issuers:

• Conservative strategy. Funds are mostly invested in fixed-income low-risk high-quality instruments. The basis of the investment portfolio is municipal and corporate bonds.

• Balanced strategy. Medium risk strategy where funds are invested in both fixed-income instruments and equities. Equities may not exceed 50 per cent. of the assets under management.

• Aggressive strategy. Higher risk strategy where funds are invested in equities and the aim is to beat average stock market returns. Investments may be made both in blue chip companies and in higher risk companies.

The following special investment strategies are targeted at investors with assets in excess of USD 200,000:

• Small Cap strategy. High risk strategy providing for investment in shares of smaller companies (capitalisation under USD 500 million), concentrating on fast growing companies operating in promising areas, given the potentially lower liquidity of such assets. The minimum investment is USD 200,000.

• Investment in high-yield bonds. Medium risk strategy (lower market risk but higher credit risk) providing for investment in high yield corporate bonds. The minimum investment is USD 200,000.

• Maintenance of capital strategy. This is targeted at conservative long-term investors and the initial value of invested funds is guaranteed. Funds are mostly invested in low-risk bonds (such as federal loan bonds, and bonds of state companies such as Gazprom, AHML and Russian Railways). A small element of the funds is invested in high yield instruments such as equities, the return on which will determine the total return on the portfolio. If the equity positions are not successful, customers will not achieve any return but will also be protected from any loss. The minimum investment is USD 200,000 and the recommended minimum term is between two and five years.

112 Mutual Fund Management The Group’s mutual fund activities are undertaken via its 100 per cent. subsidiary ZAO “Asset Management Company of Bank of Moscow” (“BMMC”). According to “Cbonds.ru” Ltd (“Cbonds”), as at 29 January 2010, BMMC ranked number four among management companies in Russia in terms of net funds under management.

The Group expects investments in its mutual funds to continue to grow as it expands its regional sales network and utilises other marketing channels. As at 31 December 2009, the Group’s asset management products consisted of 16 unit investment funds (“UIFs”) (including one UIF managed by OOO “Pension Reserve”), the assets of which are primarily invested in various classes of equity and debt securities and deposits in the electricity and precious metal sectors. UIFs are a convenient investment vehicle for customers with minimal funds available for financial market investments.

In April 2009, a new UIF was created, the assets of which are invested in precious metals, and was the first UIF of precious metals in Russia. This UIF provides investors wishing to invest in precious metals and alternatives to avoid the risks of investing in securities.

The minimum investment for a customer is RUB 1,000.00. The asset management company of the Group offers its clients an opportunity to invest in interval UIFs and open-end UIFs. As at 31 December 2009, the Group’s retail network for the sales of UIF units included 457 outlets in 169 Russian towns, and mutual funds managed by BMMC amounted to RUB 6.3 billion, compared to 441 outlets in 154 Russian towns and RUB 3.2 billion, respectively, as at 31 December 2008, 354 outlets in 95 Russian towns and RUB 11.2 billion, respectively, as at 31 December 2007.

The Group provides various services to its mutual fund customers, including allowing payments for investment units to be made through the Group’s ATM’s and since December 2009, customers have been provided with SMS services. In March 2010 the Group introduced a service called the “Personal Information Cabinet” to allow customers to make on-line payments for investment units in mutual funds, access their accounts though the internet and monitor the performance of their mutual funds.

Pension fund management The Group’s pension fund activities are undertaken via OOO “Pension Reserve” (a management company of the Group). OOO “Pension Reserve” also manages pension funds under the Pension Reform of the Russian Federation. According to “Investfunds” rankings (a project supported by Cbonds, a Russian news agency), as at 31 December 2009, OOO “Pension Reserve” was the leading entity among the private management companies in Russia in terms of volume of pension funds held in trust.

The volume of pension funds under management as at 31 December 2009 were RUB 2.3 billion, compared to RUB 1.4 billion as at 31 December 2008, and RUB 1.5 billion as at 31 December 2007.

116 of guarantees was primarily due to the increased use by the Bank’s customers of advance payment guarantees, customs guarantees and guarantees in share purchase transactions.

In the context of the global economic crisis and the acute lack of medium and long-term liquidity in the market, the Bank satisfied its customers’ demand for medium and long-term trade finance products by utilising its existing agreements with partner banks in relation to cooperation with and the participation of export credit agencies.

In 2004, the Bank began to develop its trade financing infrastructure, focusing on the development of relationships with foreign and local banks. In addition to its existing agreements with major foreign banks and export credit agencies, such as HERMES (Germany), EGAP (State Insurance Corporation of the Czech Republic), MEHIB (Hungarian Export Development Corporation), EDC (Export-Development Corporation of Canada), Hungarian Export-Import Bank and Czech Export Bank, the Bank established new business relations with the US EXIM Bank, Swiss export credit agency ERG, Eximbanka Slovakia, the Export-Import Bank of India and IFTRIC from Israel.

During 2008 and 2009, the Bank significantly expanded the geographical coverage of its trade finance business. The Bank has experienced a significant increase in the volume of letter of credit transactions with developing countries where the principal foreign trade partners of the Bank’s customers are based, and the Bank continues to participate in inter-governmental commissions of the Russian Federation with China, India, Vietnam and other countries. In 2009 and 2010 the Bank was one of the leading Russian financial institutions in terms of servicing Russian foreign trade. As at 31 December 2009, Russian and CIS counterparties accounted for 67.25 per cent. of the Group’s total portfolio of trade finance instruments, European counterparties for 32.12 per cent., and other counterparties for 0.63 per cent., respectively.

The Bank continues to participate in the financing of import of capital goods from, inter alia, Germany, Finland, Italy and other European countries, China, and Canada. In particular, the Bank also continues to finance imports of machinery and equipment for urban development projects in Moscow and other Russian cities. The Bank demonstrates a successful track record in trade-related projects in the energy, timber, wood processing, construction, food, chemicals, pharmaceutical and transport sectors. The Bank also supports its corporate customers by issuing a wide range of guarantee products.

The Bank has recently increased the proportion of its trade finance portfolio that consists of financings backed by export credit agencies and export-import banks. The Bank believes this is consistent with the requirements of its customers which are engaged in middle- and long-term projects in the Russian Federation and abroad.

Securities trading and other services The Group offers its corporate clients brokerage services for transactions on all of the major Russian stock exchanges. Corporate clients may also invest in the Group’s proprietary promissory notes.

Investment banking The Bank offers a variety of investment banking services, including issues of bonds, underwriting, corporate finance and asset management in both the domestic and international capital markets and research in the local market. The Bank seeks to leverage its relationships with its large corporate clients to build up this part of its business. The Bank offers its clients a number of products, including but not limited to loan participation notes, Eurobonds, securitisations, and equity-linked instruments.

For example, in May 2007, the Bank acted as a sole lead manager of the debut USD 100 million Credit- Linked Note issue of ZAO AKB “Gazbank”, which was the first bank in the Samara Region to access the international debt capital markets; in July 2007, the Bank acted as a sole lead arranger of a RUB 8.3 billion leasing payment securitisation for ZAO “Business Alliance” (leasing company of Joint-Stock Company “Moscow United Electric Grid Company”) (the “MOESK Transaction”); in November 2009, the Bank acted as sole lead arranger of a USD 230 million LPN issue for Joint Stock Company SITRONICS guaranteed by JSFC “Sistema”.

For example, in February 2007, the Bank acted as a joint lead arranger of the bond offering of OAO “SU- 155” in the amount of RUB 3 billion; in March 2007, the Bank acted as a joint lead arranger of the bond offering of OAO “Moscow Region Investment and Trust Company” in the amount of RUB 4 billion; in April 2007, the Bank acted as a joint lead arranger of the bond offering of the Moscow Region in the amount of

118 RUB 16 billion; in May 2007, the Bank acted as sole lead manager of the domestic bond offering of OJSC “Avtovazbank” in the amount of RUB 800 million; in July 2007, the Bank acted as co-lead manager of the domestic bond offering of Joint Stock Commercial Bank “Spurt” (Open Joint Stock Company) in the amount of RUB 1 billion; in August 2007, the Bank acted as lead manager of the domestic bond offering of OJSC “Sibir Airlines” in the amount of RUB 2.3 billion; in March 2008, the Bank acted as lead manager of the RUB 2 billion domestic bond offering of Closed Joint Stock Company “Mikoyanovsky Meat Processing Plant”; in April 2008, the Bank acted as a joint lead arranger of the RUB 8 billion domestic bond offering of Open Joint Stock Company “Chelyabinsk Tube Rolling Plant”; in May 2008, the Bank acted as lead manager of the RUB 800 million domestic bond offering of the Republic of Karelia; in July 2008, the Bank acted as lead manager of a RUB 6 billion domestic bond offering by OJSC “Moscow United Energy Company”; in July 2008, the Bank acted as lead manager of a RUB 2.5 billion domestic bond offering by Limited Liability Company “LECstroy” in June 2008 and August 2008, the Bank acted as joint lead manager of two domestic bond offerings of the Moscow Region with a total value of RUB 19 billion.

During the first half of 2009, the majority of primary placements of securities typically represented full- underwritten issues by state-owned banks benefiting from support from the Russian Government. However, by the middle of 2009, the state of the domestic bond market started to change and issues of securities by other market participants resumed, aimed at a wider investor base. For the year ended 31 December 2009, the Bank arranged 14 local bond issues, including loan securities of the state mortgage agency, Open Joint Stock Company “Chelyabinsk Tube Rolling Plant” and four municipal borrowers. Two transactions in particular were highlights for the Bank: the issue by Magnitogorsky Mettallurgic Plant of RUB 5.0 billion debt securities, which was five-times oversubscribed, and by the Krasnoyarskiy region of RUB 10.2 billion debt securities, which was two-times oversubscribed.

In April 2010, the Bank acted as lead manager of the domestic bond offering of Open Joint Stock Company “Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works” in the amount of RUB 8.0 billion; in May 2010, the Bank arranged the domestic bond issue of VAO “INTOURIST” in the amount of RUB 2.0 billion and the RUB 3.0 billion bond issue of Yaroslavl region. In June 2010, the Bank acted as the sole lead manager of the RUB 2.0 billion domestic bond issue of Joint Stock Company SITRONICS and the RUB 2.0 billion domestic bond offering of the Republic of Karelia. In August 2010, the Bank acted as lead manager of the RUB 5.0 billion domestic bond offering of Open Joint Stock Company Oil Company Alliance.

Syndicated loans The Bank believes that there are substantial business opportunities in the syndicated loan sector in the Russian Federation. Notwithstanding the recent and ongoing uncertainty in the international capital markets, the Group has seen substantial demand for financing from Russian and foreign borrowers.

In April 2008, the Bank also participated in a RUB 10.5 billion syndicated loan to OAO “Mezhregionalnaya Raspredelitelnaya Setevaya Kompaniya Tsentra” (“MRSK Tsentra”). In May 2008, the Bank, via its 100 per cent. owned Ukrainian subsidiary BM Bank LLC Ukraine, participated for the first time in a syndicated loan organised by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (“EBRD”), in this instance a USD 150 million syndicated loan granted to finance the construction of a new General Motors automobile-manufacturing plant in St. Petersburg. In October 2009 the Bank participated in a USD 1.5 billion pre-export syndicated loan for JSC “TATNEFT” as mandated lead arranger. In June 2010, the Bank was mandated lead arranger of a USD 2.0 billion pre-export syndicated loan for JSC “TATNEFT”. According to Cbonds, the Bank ranked first among Russian investment banks and 11th amongst international and domestic investment banks in terms of the total volume of domestic syndications in the year ended 31 December 2009. In addition to the investment banking activities described above, in 2008 and 2009 the Bank was actively involved in trading loans on the interbank market.

International and Correspondent Banking The Bank has relationships with financial institutions both within the Russian Federation and abroad. The Bank sets up correspondent banking relationships by exchanging SWIFT authenticator keys, opening LORO and NOSTRO correspondent accounts and entering into various inter-bank agreements. As at 1 August 2010,

119 the Group had correspondent relationships with approximately 1,562 financial institutions in more than 105 countries around the world.

The Bank believes that its position as one of the leading banks in the Russian banking system combined with the steady growth of its loan portfolio, stable capital position, case-by-case approach to structuring correspondent relationships and flexible fees policy make it an attractive partner for both Russian and foreign banks. The Bank contracted with 62 new correspondent banks during the year ended 31 December 2009, 90 and 95 correspondent banks during the years ended 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively. The Group believes that the availability to it of credit facilities from foreign banks enables it to improve the financial terms of foreign trade transactions for its customers and offer them more efficient international payment instruments.

LENDING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES One of the Group’s fundamental operating policies is to have established parameters that aim to support the expansion of the Group’s operations while preserving the quality of its loan portfolio. In structuring and implementing its lending policy, the Group is guided by the following rules:

• Diversification of lending across industry and economic sectors. The Group’s main areas of focus are loans to customers in key sectors of the economy such as manufacturing, fuel and energy, metals, mining, trade and construction. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Interest income from loans to customers”;

• Regional diversification. The Group aims to expand business operations in the Russian regions where existing branches of the Group are based;

• Creditworthiness of customers. While the Group prefers to limit its loan portfolio to high profile, reliable customers and focuses its analysis primarily on the creditworthiness of potential borrowers, it accepts that it will need to slightly relax its requirements to lend in the current environment in order to acquire a greater market share and in recognition of the consequences of the global economic crisis; and

• Quality of collateral to secure the loan. The Group seeks to protect its position through securing loans with collateral that has been carefully assessed for its value and enforceability. In particular, the Group is constantly re-evaluating the type of security to be taken in view of its practical experience of the value of such security.

CBR guidelines The Bank is subject to strict guidelines for credit approval which are set by the CBR and designed to ensure both the good financial standing of Russian banks and due protection of their creditors. In particular, the Bank is required to maintain certain mandatory economic ratios represented by a set of limitations relating to the maximum amount of exposure in the credit portfolio, as well as a minimum capital adequacy and liquidity of the Bank. For example, one of these ratios limits the Bank’s exposure to a single borrower or a group of related borrowers to 25 per cent. of the capital of the Bank. The Bank believes that its procedures for the approval and monitoring of loans and collateral currently comply with the CBR guidelines and are set out in a clearly defined credit policy.

In common with all other Russian banks, the Bank reports to the CBR on a regular basis regarding its compliance with the CBR’s mandatory economic ratios, and its compliance is monitored by the CBR.

If the mandatory economic ratios are not met, the CBR has the power to impose sanctions on a bank for such noncompliance. Such sanctions could include a fine, placing the bank into temporary administration by the CBR or the revocation of its banking licence. Under Russian law, the CBR may appoint a temporary administrator for a term of up to six months if a bank has failed to comply with the CBR’s orders to remedy breaches or if breaches by a bank have created an actual threat to the interests of its creditors (depositors). A bank’s banking licence may be revoked after repeated imposition of sanctions on that bank during a calendar year. To date, the Bank has not breached any of the CBR’s mandatory economic ratios and no

120 sanctions have been imposed on the Group by the CBR for breach of such ratios. See also “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation” and “– Capital Adequacy”.

Credit procedures The Group applies a number of internal guidelines in its credit procedures, including various regulations applicable to certain departments and business lines. Depending on the terms of the proposed loan, the credit policy provides for approaches and procedures to be used by the Group when determining the level of interest rates, limits and tariffs applicable to particular clients. The risk management department (“RMD”) carries out an independent expert evaluation of each large scale or non-standard credit facility. Standard loans that the Group has identified as involving minimum risks are issued in accordance with a strictly regulated automated procedure that does not require the direct involvement of the RMD.

The authority to make independent lending decisions lies primarily with the credit committee of the head office (the “Credit Committee”), the small credit committee of the head office (the “Small Credit Committee”) and the mortgage committee of the head office (the “Mortgage Committee”). The Credit Committee and the Small Credit Committee consist of members from the Management Board, as well as representatives from various departments of the Group, and each committee meets, generally, once a week. Any proposed loan exceeding RUB 150 million (or RUB 300 million for loans with a minimum of 100 per cent. high-quality collateral (which includes promissory notes, certificates of deposit issued by the Group and deposits with the Group)) is subject to approval by the Credit Committee. Typically, 12 people sit on the Small Credit Committee while the Credit Committee has 14 members and the Mortgage Committee has 6 members. The Mortgage Committee has responsibility for approving mortgage loans with values of between RUB 6 million and RUB 40 million, and is headed by the Deputy Director of the Market, Operational and Retail Risks Department.

Apart from the committees described above, the power to make independent lending decisions is granted to the President of the Bank, a number of other authorised officers in the Bank’s head office and to individual credit committees at branch and office level. Each individual credit committee consists of the director of the branch, the heads of the departments or divisions responsible for lending, securities, funding, accounting, legal and security matters, as well as an independent risk manager who holds a power of veto in respect of credit decisions. The procedures for setting, using and monitoring the application of the limits by the branches and offices are prescribed by internal regulations of the Group and are monitored and controlled by the RMD. The Bank believes that all its branches and offices currently comply with the requirements of the CBR. In addition to the Group’s internal regulations, the Group has developed an internal system of limits applicable to credit transactions which sets forth the maximum credit limit that can be extended to a client or group of related clients by a branch or office without authorisation from the head office. This limit is determined by a set of formal parameters reflecting the expertise of each branch or office and the track record of its lending business. The track record is assessed based on factors including the repayment record of the loan portfolio, the volume of the loan portfolio and the volume of overdue loans. The regulation also lists transactions that the branch is not allowed to execute independently (for example, granting loans to a customer with an existing overdue liability). When a loan proposal exceeds the authority of a particular department or office, it is referred to the head office of the Bank. All loans are evaluated and extended based on standard credit risk evaluation procedures.

As a result of the global economic crisis, in 2009 certain decision-making capabilities that were previously vested in each branch office have been centralised with credit committees or the Bank’s head office, for example with respect to express (scoring) loans, consumer loans and (in Moscow and the Moscow region) credit cards, and the centralisation of the Bank’s underwriting process for SME loans. This transfer reflects the Group’s attempts to counterbalance the higher incidences of fraud and default in the context of the global economic crisis. Also, the Group has decreased the maximum credit limit that can be extended to a client or group of related clients by a branch or office without authorisation from the head offices. Further, the lending decision centre for loans to SMEs has been centralized at the Bank’s head office to help achieve a higher quality of loan application assessment and subsequent loan portfolio. The Group has introduced a system of centralised underwriting in respect of consumer loans, express (scoring) loans and, in Moscow and the Moscow region, in respect of credit cards.

121 Corporate loans The Group’s lending policies for commercial and municipal entities focus on the improvement of the credit quality and income level of its loan portfolio and minimisation and diversification of credit risks. The Group has developed specific loan application management processes for reviewing an application, conducting initial negotiations with the potential borrower and monitoring the loan’s performance and timely repayment. The credit transaction review process has a number of stages. Initially, the Group reviews non-financial information on the potential borrower. These procedures include an analysis of the applicant’s incorporation documents, management quality, reputation, organisational structure and credit history. This information is obtained from a number of sources, including the Group’s Corporate Interests Protection Service. The following stage is to assess the general business environment in the sector to which the applicant belongs. All such information collected on the borrower, including its financial status, is summarised by software developed by the Group and is analysed in accordance with the Group’s existing risk evaluation methods and an internal rating is assigned to such loan. The materials are then submitted to the credit committee of the branch or department, which decides either to grant or to deny the loan. In the event a loan exceeds in any respect the authority granted to such branch or department, the documents related to such loan are submitted to the Credit Committee or Small Credit Committee. On 5 December 2009, the Group introduced stricter requirements in respect of borrowers who have a high level of indebtedness. Public borrowings, leasing payments and bonds with put options have been added to the list of payment obligations which are used to determine a level of indebtedness in order to establish risk limits. On 6 July 2010, the Group relaxed some anti-crisis restrictions that it had introduced in 2009, it broadened the range of industry sectors to which it extended corporate overdrafts and reduced the discount applied to collateral.

In relation to each loan submitted to the Credit Committee, the Bank’s head office makes an assessment of the borrower while the RMD carries out an independent expert evaluation of the proposed loan and all related risks using internal methods and borrower exposure assessment technologies developed by the Group, which take into account various information on the borrower and the proposed loan. Special attention is given to the borrower’s affiliates and group risks. The Group conducts an assessment of financial forecasts of the potential borrower’s performance over the credit period to assess whether the loan is serviceable and recoverable. Based on the credit risk monitoring methodologies developed by the Group in consultation with specialist external advisors, the credit officers decide which credit risk group the borrower falls into and set specific risk limits for the borrower. These risk assessment methodologies are based on the financial standing of the borrower, maturity of the credit product, collateral offered for the credit product, size and frequency of cash inflow in the borrower’s bank account, history of the Group’s relationship with the borrower, external factors affecting the borrower (such as economic and political factors) and internal factors affecting the borrower (such as ownership structure, management, transparency and production capacity). The maximum amount of the loan is calculated based on the forecasted cash flow generated by the potential borrower. The forecasted cash flow is calculated based on the financial statements of the borrower for the four most recent quarterly accounting periods. The resulting value is adjusted by a number of specific factors. These factors take into account the probability of the forecasted value and depend on:

• the ratio of the net profit divided by the forecasted cash flow of the potential borrower;

• for borrowers other than trading companies, the liquidity ratio (liquid assets divided by current liabilities) of the potential borrower;

• for trading companies, turnover of goods; and

• the industry sector.

The final maximum amount of the loan is the difference between the values calculated on the basis of the forecasted cash flow and the sum of amounts that are repayable during the term of the loan under consideration. Loans to borrowers related to or affiliated with the Group may not exceed the total limit of credit risk for related borrowers as a group.

122 Retail loans All loans to retail customers are extended on a repayment basis for a set period of time. Loans to retail customers, other than credit cards, express (scoring) loans and consumer loans (which are all not secured) are approved only on a secured basis and for a specific purpose. With the exception of mortgage loans issued by the Group which may be extended for a period of up to thirty years, the Group’s portfolio of retail loans consists primarily of short-term loans (maturing within 1.5 years) and medium-term loans (with maturities of between 1.5 year and seven years). Retail loans are extended both at the Bank’s local offices or regional branches. In the context of the economic downturn since 2008, the Bank has introduced a system of centralised underwriting. As at the date of this Prospectus, the introduction of centralised underwriting has been completed in respect of express loans (May 2009), consumer loans (September 2009) and credit cards (April 2010). Specific rules regulate the analysis of the borrower’s creditworthiness, the extension of credit and the management of the loan during its lifetime. The exact underwriting procedures depend on the particular type of retail loan product.

As a general rule, the borrower’s creditworthiness is established on the basis of an employer’s certificate indicating the borrower’s gross income during the previous six months and is calculated based on a formula, which takes into account the borrower’s net average monthly income (less appropriate deductions). Once the borrower’s creditworthiness has been established, the Group calculates the maximum amount which it is prepared to lend. The interest on the loan is accrued on a daily basis and is paid on a monthly basis.

Currently, all retail loan applications, irrespective of amount, are verified in a specialised verification department. The verification procedure provides for the confirmation of all information and data provided by potential borrowers, with special attention given to a borrower’s place of work and an official confirmation of a borrower’s income. Depending on the particular type of retail loan product the borrower is seeking, the lending decision will rest with one of the following:

• in respect of express loans, consumer loans and credit cards, the lending decisions are made by the Underwriting service of the head office;

• in respect of mortgage loans, the lending decisions are made by the Underwriting service of the head office; and

• in respect of credit cards and car loans, the lending decisions are made by authorised officers at an office or branch level based on the delegated lending powers. Monitoring of the limits established for each authorised officer is exercised by the RMD, the Retail Banking Department and the Audit Department.

The introduction of the centralised lending decision system described above is designed to mitigate defaults under loans extended by the Group and reduce operational risks. The introduction of centralised underwriting in respect of express loans was completed in May 2009, in respect of consumer loans, in September 2009, and in respect of credit cards in April 2010. Based on this positive experience the Group is considering applying this approach in other lending programmes, such as car loans and, in the corporate segment, to SME lending.

To reduce credit risk, the Group encourages customers applying for consumer loans to provide third parties’ sureties by offering a lower interest rate should a potential borrower provide sureties of creditworthy guarantors.

Collateral A fundamental principle of the Group’s lending business is that the Group’s interests are protected by requiring the borrower to provide adequate collateral to secure the performance of its obligations. Other than express (scoring) loans, overdrafts, consumer loans and credit card products, which are unsecured loan products, the Group only extends unsecured loans in exceptional circumstances and where approved by the President or the Credit Committee. The Group has a Collateral Management Division (“CMD”) which is responsible for valuing and monitoring collateral. The CMD assesses both the value and enforceability of the

123 collateral. The Group’s credit policy contains a description of preferred and unacceptable types of collateral and sets out criteria for determining the value of the proposed collateral.

The principal stages of the Group’s collateral management process are the following:

• preliminary examination and appraisal of property offered as collateral;

• execution of a collateral agreement, insuring the collateral and compiling the collateral file;

• monitoring collateral assets; and

• termination and possible liquidation/forfeiture of collateral.

The CBR does not regulate the type of collateral required, although the amount of provisioning under CBR guidelines depends in part on the collateral received. The frequency of a collateral review will depend on the type of collateral taken. Collateral with a market quotation, such as securities, is monitored on a daily basis. All other collateral is generally reviewed either on a ten-day, monthly or quarterly basis. The frequency of a collateral review depends on the type of collateral taken and risks associated with such collateral. For example, real estate and immovable equipment is reviewed at least on a quarterly basis, and goods, cars, rolling stock and movable equipment are reviewed at least on a monthly basis given the higher risks of theft or damage associated with such assets. The Group’s monitoring practices include verification of the physical presence and state of the collateral, control over the collateral value and confirmation of the property rights of the pledgor over the assets.

The Group can usually foreclose on and then dispose of liquid collateral, such as shares, promissory notes and bonds, within a few days but it may require up to 180 days to foreclose on, and then sell, other types of collateral. The enforcement of certain collateral, such as state owned property, may require a longer period of time. Under Russian law, foreclosure generally requires a court order and a public sale of the collateral. A court may delay such public sale for a period of up to a year upon a pledgor’s application. In addition, Russian law has no pledge perfection system for collateral other than mortgages, which may lead to unexpected and/or conflicting claims of secured creditors upon the pledged property. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Bank’s Business and Industry – A decline in the value or illiquidity of the collateral securing the Group’s loans may materially adversely affect the Group’s loan portfolio and it may be difficult for the Group to enforce collateral or other security under Russian law”.

Retail and corporate loans are extended against the following types of collateral:

• mortgages and pledges of assets, including real estate, goods and inventory (applicable to corporate and SME loans), stocks, bills, certificates, bonds, governmental and other securities trading at stable prices;

• unconditional and irrevocable payment guarantees issued by reputable foreign banks and reliable Russian banks;

• sureties and commitments issued by solvent commercial and governmental entities possessing funds or reliable sources of funds which are sufficient to meet loan repayment and interest payment obligations;

• pledges of the right to claim under investment contracts (for example, pledges of rights to apartments in buildings under construction);

• individual guarantees;

• pledges of rights (claims) to monetary funds maintained on deposit with the Group;

• insurance of business risk; and

• other forms of security.

An opinion on such collateral is usually prepared by the CMD. Where an independent appraisal of the market value of the collateral is required by law or agreed between the Group and the pledgor, a third party appraiser

124 will be engaged. Irrespective of whether a third party appraiser is engaged or not, the Group always produces its own collateral opinion. As at 31 December 2009, the Group had RUB 1,074.2 billion of collateral security over net loans to customers of RUB 534.5 billion, compared to RUB 990.1 billion over RUB 516.6 billion, RUB 621.2 billion over RUB 351.6 billion, as at 31 December 2008, and 31 December 2007, respectively. This made the Group’s net loan portfolio 2.0 times over-collateralised as at 31 December 2009 (compared to 1.9 times as at 31 December 2008 and 1.8 times as at 31 December 2007). The breakdown of such collateral as at 31 December 2009 is as follows: 51.8 per cent. guarantees and securities, 37.6 per cent. property and 10.6 per cent. securities (37 per cent., 55 per cent. and 8 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2008, and 38 per cent., 52 per cent. and 10 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2007.

In November 2008 the Group increased the discounts applied to the market value of certain types of collateral. Discounts are determined on the basis of various factors which can potentially influence the disposal of collateral, with the aim of discharging the payment obligations of a pledgor towards the Group, including the probability of a decrease in the market value of the collateral, expenses that may be incurred in connection with the disposal process, and fines and penalties. In September 2009 the discounts were decreased to pre-global economic crisis levels. In addition, the Group’s requirements in relation to the quality and the amount of collateral have been tightened (illiquid and matured property has been excluded from the list of eligible collateral). Real estate and equipment are considered by the Group to be the most preferred types of collateral. In June 2010, the Group introduced a collateral assessment system for the SME sector, based on an internal rating system to allow it to centralise the underwriting of its SME loan products by the end of 2010.

The following table shows the percentage of collateral held by the Group which consists of property, guarantees and sureties and securities as at the dates set out therein:

31 December 2009 2008 2007 %%% Property 37.6 36.7 37.9 Guarantees and sureties 51.8 54.9 51.7 Securities 10.6 8.4 10.4 –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– Total ––––––––100.0 –––––––– 100.0 –––––––– 100.0 TAXATION The Bank is subject to nine types of taxes either as a taxpayer or a tax agent on behalf of its clients (income tax (profit tax), VAT, tax on the profit received by companies from foreign companies’ income non- connected to any business activity in the Russian Federation, tax on the profit of Russian companies received by Russian companies from income in the form of dividends, tax on the profit of Russian companies received by foreign companies from income in the form of dividends, tax on the profit of companies received from income in the form of interest on non-governmental and municipal securities, tax on the assets of companies (corporate property tax), transport tax imposed on companies, and land tax). The Bank believes it currently performs its tax obligations in compliance with applicable legislation. In 2007, the Group was audited by the tax authorities for the years 2004 and 2005. As a result, the tax authorities claimed RUB 283.4 million of unpaid taxes and penalties. The Group has successfully challenged almost all of these claims in court. For further details, see “–Litigation”. In 2009 the Bank was audited by the tax authorities for the years 2006, 2007 and 2008. As a result, the tax authorities claimed RUB 13.3 million of unpaid taxes and penalties, which the Bank paid. There are currently no audits underway or requests for future audits of the Group by the tax authorities, and no material disputes or controversies with the tax authorities that may have material adverse effect on the Group’s business.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY The Bank’s policies with respect to information technology (“IT”) are targeted at the development and application of advanced banking technologies in order to provide its customers with access to an integrated and modern package of banking services. Decisions on technology policy and the Group’s IT requirements

125 are made by the Technology Committee. The Technology Committee has 16 voting members representing the Bank’s front- and back offices and five non-voting members representing the IT department, and is chaired by a member of the Management Board appointed by the President. The IT department has several sub-divisions, including a technical support centre, an IT systems engineering department, a service centre, a department responsible for infrastructure development and a control centre.

The Bank is constantly seeking to improve and refine the unified information and technological environment that connects the Bank’s head office, divisions, branches, subsidiaries and customers of the Bank, and the Bank is seeking to implement global best practices regarding the development of software and technology. For example, the Bank’s system of IT security has been constructed in accordance with the requirements of the CBR, ISO 27001 and the provisions of the Basel Accord prepared by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.

The Bank’s computer systems are upgraded and replaced regularly, and are based on an automatic banking system (“ABC”) which is an in-house development of an Oracle platform and uses equipment sourced from leading world manufacturers such as IBM, Hewlett Packard and Cisco Systems. The ABC has been in place for more than 10 years and it is regularly modified to take account of developments in banking processes. The Bank also makes use of other IT solutions such as Hyperion, Reuters and OpenWay. The Bank installed its first IBM server in April 2003 and subsequently upgraded its IT system by installing a second IBM server in December 2004. The servers are linked to the Bank’s branches and regional systems, and the Bank has its own fibre-optic network in Moscow. This IT platform is also utilised to help facilitate the expansion of the Bank’s internet banking services. In 2005, the Group introduced a system for the receipt and processing of payments for utility services on the basis of Oracle Real Application Clusters. This information system services the clearing centre that distributes payments for housing and utility services in Moscow. An audit regarding compliance to the requirements of standard PCI DSS is held on a regular basis. The Group also uses standard banking programs and solutions in its retail, treasury and banking cards operations.

In the year ended 31 December 2009, the Bank spent RUB 1.014 billion on the development and maintenance of its IT systems and the Bank’s total capital expenditure on IT during the year ended 31 December 2008 was RUB 920.9 million and RUB 1,085 million during the year ended 31 December 2007. The Bank’s investment in IT is expected to increase proportionally to the expansion of the Bank’s business.

The Bank has also established a remote Reserve Business Centre (“RBC”) and Reserve Data Centre (“RDC”) to ensure the safe and continuous operation of the Bank’s information systems. The RBC and RDC are connected with the Bank by two different fibre-optic cables owned by the Bank. They contain all of the facilities needed to run the essential business functions of the Bank and replicate the basic information systems of the Bank, including e-mail services, printing services and file services. The RBC and RDC are equipped with a two-level system of diesel generators to provide an uninterrupted power supply and can be activated at any time with a delay of less than one hour. Test switches between the Bank’s head office and the RBC, as well as training of technical personnel, are performed on a daily basis to try to ensure efficient continuity of business. In 2006, the Bank installed new IBM servers in the RBC and in 2008 installed an HP XP12000 Storage system. The RBC and RDC are protected by Lampertz technology that significantly increases the safety and security of the Bank’s IT-system. The Bank also owns a Reserve Telecommunications Centre (the “RTC”), which ensures permanent connection between the Bank’s offices. The RTC is independently linked to all telecommunication operators working with the Bank.

In 2008 the Bank’s telecommunications network started to use up-to-date protocols, namely, MPLS in Moscow and IP-VPN in the other regions, which allowed the Bank to substantially upgrade its controls, reliability and network capacity and to decrease its cost of ownership.

In 2009 compensatory measures against DDOS-attacks were taken, and AVAYA Contact-Center came into service, which allowed the Bank to substantially increase the quality of its services provided to clients and to develop the system of remote sales and work with overdue indebtedness. In 2009 centralised system of back up was adopted on the basis of tape library IBM. In 2009 industrial methods of software technology on the basis of technologies IBM Rational were implemented in accordance with recommendations of an IT- audit conducted by Deloitte, IBM and KPMG.

126 At the end of 2009, the Bank finalised the introduction of a new ALM (Asset Liability Management) system called “Kamakura Risk Manager” calculating and analysing interest rate risk on the basis of global best practices, Monte Carlo simulation methodologies, non-parallel shift simulation and stress testing.

EMPLOYEES As at 31 December 2009 the Bank had 7,943 employees, compared to 8,918 employees as at 31 December 2008 and 9,523 employees as at 31 December 2007. As at 31 December 2009, 3,448 employees worked in Moscow and the Moscow region (compared to 3,724 employees as at 31 December 2008 and 3,883 employees as at 31 December 2007 and 4,495 employees worked in other regions of the Russian Federation (compared to 5,194 as at 31 December 2008 and 5,639 as at 31 December 2007). The total number of the Bank’s employees decreased by 10.9 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2009 and by 6.3 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2008 and increased by 21.5 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2007. Personnel turnover rate was 34.3 per cent. in the year ended 31 December 2009, 52.7 per cent. in 2008 and 63.7 per cent. in 2007. In August 2008, the Bank implemented an efficiency drive, which involved cutting the number of personnel employed by its retail banking business in regional branches. This included an employee redundancy programme, as a result of which the total number of employees of the Bank fell by approximately 16.6 per cent. between 31 December 2007 and 31 December 2009.

The Russian market for qualified financial institution personnel, especially for junior and middle management, is highly competitive. The Bank has established a system for selecting and employing highly qualified graduates from the leading Russian schools and universities. Notwithstanding the reduction in the number of the Bank’s total employees during the period 31 December 2007 to 31 December 2009, the Bank still seeks to recruit experienced managers and specialists from other financial institutions, with an emphasis on sales managers experienced in working with companies, service managers, experts in marketing and banking technologies and tax and financial advisors. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Bank’s Business and Industry – The Group depends on its senior management and key personnel and it may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified professionals”.

The Bank believes that its salary structure and benefits package are commensurate with that of other leading Russian banks. The Group has also developed a system of performance-based financial rewards. The Group’s staff costs were RUB 7.4 billion for the year ended 31 December 2009 and accounted for 51.9 per cent. of the Group’s total general and administrative expenses, compared with RUB 7.9 billion (53.0 per cent.) and RUB 6.4 billion (55.7 per cent.) for the years ended 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively. See “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – General and Administrative Expenses”.

The Group has never experienced any strikes, work stoppages, significant labour disputes or actions that have affected the operation of its business and the Group considers its relationship with its employees to be good. The Group’s personnel have not established any trade unions or entered into any collective bargaining agreements.

LITIGATION On 7 July 2010 CJSC “Oktaedr” (“Oktaedr”), a creditor of one of the Bank’s clients, OJSC “Mosobltrastinvest” (“Mosobltrastinvest”), filed a claim against Mosobltrastinvest, the Moscow regional government and the Bank as co-defendants. Oktaedr sought to invalidate a guarantee (the “Guarantee”) issued by the Moscow regional government in December 2008 in favour of the Bank to secure the obligations of Mosobltrastinvest under a loan agreement between Mosobltrastinvest and the Bank. Oktaedr claims that the Guarantee was issued in breach of the budget code of the Russian Federation and the civil code of the Russian Federation. The Bank successfully claimed approximately USD 56.0 million under the Guarantee after insolvency proceedings were initiated against Mosobltrastinvest in September 2009.

127 The Group is, from time to time, involved in criminal proceedings, including those initiated by the Bank against current or former employees. The Group, is from time to time, subject to legal proceedings and other investigations (including regulatory) in the ordinary course of the Group’s business. On the basis of its own estimates and both internal and professional advice, the management of the Group is of the opinion that no such claims (whether satisfied or not) are likely to have a material adverse effect on the business of the Group or on the results of its operations or financial condition.

Associates are entities in which the Bank directly or indirectly owns between 20 per cent. and 50 per cent. of the voting rights, or is otherwise able to exercise significant influence (for example through representation in management bodies) but which it does not control.

PROPERTY As at 31 December 2009, the Group owned real estate in Moscow (31 premises with an aggregate area of approximately 39,776 square metres) and other regions in the Russian Federation (31 premises in 20 regions in the Russian Federation with an aggregate area of approximately 42,971 square metres).

As at 31 December 2009, the Group owned 3.4 hectares of land in five regions of the Russian Federation, including approximately 2.5 hectares of land in the Tula region. As at 31 December 2009, the Group also leased 104 premises in Moscow and the Moscow region with an aggregate area of approximately 72,100 square metres and 241 premises (excluding offices with areas of less than 10 square metres, and land leased for garages and ATMs) with an aggregate area of approximately 68,410 square metres in other Russian regions. See also “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – General and administrative expenses”.

129 OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS The primary purpose of the Group’s off-balance sheet arrangements is to ensure that funds are available to a customer as required. For example, guarantees that represent irrevocable assurances that the Group will make payments in the event that a customer cannot meet its obligations to third parties carry the same credit risk as loans. Import letters of credit, which are written undertakings by the Group on behalf of a customer authorising a third party to draw drafts on the Group up to a stipulated amount under specific terms and conditions, are collateralised by cash deposits or collateral pledged to the Group and therefore carry less risk than direct borrowing.

As at 31 December 2009, the Group had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements other than undrawn credit lines, guarantees and import letters of credit.

The following table shows the Group’s credit-related commitments for the years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007.

Year ended 31 December 2009 2008 2007 RUB millions Guarantees 53,662.7 48,106.0 36,187.7 Commitments to extend credit 31,387.2 23,737.2 32,534.8 Letters of credit 8,826.9 8,840.9 8,918.7 –––––––– –––––––– –––––––– Total credit-related commitments ––––––––93,876.8 –––––––– 80,684.1 –––––––– 77,641.2 The Group believes that its off balance sheet obligations would not have a material impact on its financial condition if the Group were required to fulfil such obligations in full. The Group records its off-balance sheet guarantees and commitments to extend credit that represent contingent obligations on its balance sheet at the time of performance in accordance with the applicable accounting standards. See Note 32 to the 2009 Financial Statements and Note 31 to the 2008 Financial Statements and the 2007 Financial Statements, set out elsewhere in this Prospectus, for a more detailed discussion of the Group’s contingent liabilities.

The contractual amount of these commitments represents the value at risk should the contract be fully drawn upon, the client defaults, and the value of any existing collateral becomes worthless. The Group’s management regularly assesses the risk of losses in connection with these instruments and each of the three years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007 has determined that it was not necessary to establish provisions for any such losses.

Guarantee amounts and maturities The following tables set out the Group’s guarantees by amounts as at 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007:

ASSET, LIABILITY AND RISK MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW The Group’s asset and liability management strategy aims to optimise the Group’s profitability over time subject to specific risk parameters and business needs, using an integrated approach to its capital, balance sheet (assets and liabilities), and liquidity and interest rate risk management. Asset and liability management consists of balance sheet funding, control and evaluation and management of liquidity, foreign currency and interest rate risks.

The Group manages the composition of its assets and liabilities based on the results of scenario analysis and stress testing which takes into account historical data about Russian economic crisis and the possibility of future crisis in the Russian economy. The Group’s Planning and Economy Department cooperates with the Group’s Liquidity Department to develop recommendations for structuring the Group’s assets and liabilities to produce desirable levels of profitability whilst maintaining an acceptable level of risk and adhering to the Group’s strategic goals. The Group has designed its risk management strategy with the aim of minimising uncertainties that result in losses and enabling the Group to function in a stable manner despite changing conditions and fluctuations in the domestic and global financial markets, such as those experienced in the global financial markets during the global economic crisis. The Bank aims to have sufficient liquidity to match its assets and liabilities by maturity and currency, and to diversify its assets and liabilities by clients, regions, industry sectors and amounts. The Group continues to refine its risk management, monitoring and control systems in light of the continuing development of the Russian banking system and domestic financial markets.

The Group’s risk management functions are overseen by the RMD. Day-to-day control of active transactions by stand-alone business departments or offices is carried out by the relevant branch directors and division managers on the basis of the Group’s general risk management policy. Each department and office delivers daily information on their credit and market transactions, and related risks, to the RMD. This data then undergoes independent assessment and subsequently forms the basis for the fundamental analysis of the relevant portfolio. The results of such analyses are summarised in regular risk reports that are submitted to the Bank’s President, Management Board and Credit Committee. These risk reports contain suggestions and recommendations for eliminating or reducing any risks identified in the report, and these are then considered and discussed by the Bank’s President, Management Board and Credit Committee. The decisions taken in relation thereto will be recorded in writing in the minutes of the relevant body, which minutes are then distributed back to the relevant parties, who will then act upon the decisions contained therein.

The Group has an internal risk control system which consists of a formal set of procedures applied by the personnel of each department and/or office at various levels in the course of transaction processing to identify potential human errors, or hardware/software errors. In addition, the Group has an external risk control system, consisting of a formal set of control techniques applied at various levels by the Internal Audit Commission and the Group’s external auditors, as well as by third party assessors engaged by the Group on an ad hoc basis where the need for the same has been identified.

131 During the global economic crisis, the Group’s risk management processes became increasingly centralised. For example, in respect of retail loans, certain decision-making capabilities that were previously vested in each branch office are now centralised with credit committees or the Bank’s head office. The Group intends to extend this further to SME lending. The Group has transferred a large proportion of individual decision- making powers to committee level.

CREDIT, MARKET AND LIQUIDITY RISKS The Group’s results of operations are influenced by credit and market risks related to financial investments. To manage such risks and in an effort to neutralise events that can potentially have a negative effect on the Group or its operations, the Group established a three-level risk control system, which can be summarised as follows:

• each individual department and office exercises preliminary and operational control in relation to compliance with the Group’s established risk limits by transactions for which such department or office has primary responsibility;

• the back office of the Bank’s head office monitors each department and office for compliance with the Group’s established limits in respect of the transactions for which such department or office has primary responsibility; and

• the following departments of the Group carry out preliminary control and independent follow-up on risks to the extent of their competence on an ongoing basis: the RMD, the Internal Audit Department (whose competence spans an internal but independent audit function reporting to President), the Planning and Economy Department (which is responsible for analysing and controlling efficiency, and ensuring that the Group’s exposure to risk is efficient), the Legal Department (which has responsibility for control of the legal risks the Group is exposed to, including in the content of contracts with clients and partners, and as a result of claims against the Group), the Financial Control Service (which is responsible for the Group’s anti-money laundering controls – see “– Money Laundering Risk”), the Corporate Interests Protection Service and the Security Service (both of which share responsibility for performing security checks and verifications on existing and potential customers, and liaising with government security services).

In addition, the Group’s risk management system regulates the following:

• the identification and selection of reliable borrowers and low-risk financial investment instruments by the Group though the application of formalised credit and risk measurement methods and detailed analysis of each new product the Bank considers introducing;

• limitations on the Group’s investments in individual industry sectors in order to avoid excessive concentrations in, and consequent risk exposures to, any one industry sector;

• the risk monitoring procedures with respect to the Group’s portfolio as a whole and to certain materially significant loans, in order to enable the Bank to take preventive measures in the event that the Group identifies any negative trends; and

• the measures the Group has in place to hedge individual risk types.

Credit risk As a result of its credit operations, the Group is exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to repay its obligations in full when due. The RMD has designed the Group’s “know your client” procedures and credit risk management system based on CBR requirements, the recommendations of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, international auditing standards and the experience of the leading Russian and international financial institutions.

The Group has an internal rating system that places legal entities, private entrepreneurs, administrations of regions of the Russian Federation, domestic and foreign banks, and foreign governments into various risk categories. Risks related to individual borrowers are evaluated on the basis of a scoring method originally

132 developed by the Group with the support of a number of foreign consulting companies. The Group regularly consults with external consulting companies over its rating systems and scoring methodologies to ensure that they are up-to-date and appropriate. All scoring cards used by the Group in retail business were updated in 2009 to take account of changes in borrowers’ behaviour resulting from the changed economic environment. From June to August 2009, the Group had a series of consultations with external consulting companies in respect of the loan collection issues.

In general, the Group uses the following mechanisms to manage its overall loan portfolio exposure:

• limits on the Group’s exposure to different industry sectors (differentiated by factors such as customer type, industry type and geographical location); and

• limits on the authority of the Group’s personnel with respect to loans.

Among the portfolio limits, one of the most important is the risk limit that determines the maximum loss for each department and office involved in active transactions. The amount of such risk is established by the RMD on the basis of the risk tolerance and is subject to quarterly review on the basis of the risk status of the existing loan portfolio. The RMD updates the existing limits on a regular basis in accordance with the current loan risk level as well as the macro- and micro-economic situation. The RMD regularly reviews the risks it has identified in relation to existing products and the compliance with the established limits on such risks by the relevant departments and offices of the Group in order to identify factors that could increase the levels of such risks with a view towards developing strategies to mitigate them. To the extent that such reviews identify any violations of existing limits on identified risks, the RMD then reports these to the relevant departments or offices of the Group, and based on the results of its analysis of the loan portfolio, the RMD formulates suggestions to help prevent the future reoccurrence of such violations. In addition to the traditional groups of factors (such as the financial status, security and settlement account turnover), the loan risk level can be affected by geographic and industry sector risks.

The Group has a system of limitations on active transactions that are designed to restrict the risks associated with any specific transaction and with the Group’s loan portfolio exposure in general. To manage specific transaction risks, the Group uses:

• term limits that are dependent on the risk levels associated with the Group’s various loan products, their types and their specific terms;

• amount limits with respect to each specific counterparty or group of related counterparties;

• limits with respect to each of the Bank’s loan products calculated in accordance with internal methods of loan risk evaluation; and

• specific bank transactions limits.

A decision to assign a credit risk category and a risk limit to a particular borrower will be made either by the Credit Committee, the Small Credit Committee or by the credit committee of the relevant branch, depending on the size and type of the loan involved. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures – Credit Procedures”.

Credit risk limits for borrowers As at 31 December 2009, the Group had established credit risk limits for approximately 385,244 borrowers or groups of borrowers (including individuals) compared with approximately 506,000 as at 31 December 2008. This reduction is principally due to the Group implementing stricter credit limits in the context of the global economic crisis, which resulted in a reduction in the number of eligible customers. As at 31 December 2009, the Group had set overall lending limits for more than 4,813 companies (31 December 2008: 6,200), 33 domestic banks (31 December 2008: 30), 71 foreign banks (31 December 2008: 74), 29 Russian subsidiaries of foreign banks (31 December 2008: 26) and 21 Russian sub-federal entities (31 December 2008: 18). As at 31 December 2009, the Bank’s offices and branches had lending limits for approximately 4,359 companies and 19 municipalities, compared with 5,900 and 17, respectively, as at 31 December 2008.

133 The Group has also imposed credit risk limits on domestic banks with respect to certain banking operations (such as precious metals and foreign exchange operations) and limits or sub-limits on particular banking operations and credit risk limits for loans to employees guaranteed by companies. Certain banking operations, such as repo transactions, are not subject to credit risk limits. The Group monitors its credit exposure limits on a monthly basis, and these limits are reviewed at least annually. The Group also manages its credit risk by obtaining collateral as well as corporate and personal guarantees. Other than the retail express “scoring loans”, overdrafts, consumer loans and credit card products, which are unsecured loan products, the Group only extends unsecured loans in exceptional circumstances approved by the President or the Credit Committee. The Group’s CMD values and monitors the Group’s collateral. The CMD assesses both the value and enforceability of the collateral. The Group’s credit policy contains a description of preferred and unacceptable types of collateral and sets out criteria for determining the value of the proposed collateral. See “Business – Lending Policies and Procedures – Collateral”.

Geographic risk The Group is exposed to geographic risk due to a high degree of concentration of financial investments in certain regions where the Group’s borrowers operate. Regional exposure reflects the potential for the full or partial default of businesses operating in various regions on their obligations to the Group in the event of unfavourable changes in the current economic status of the particular region that may have a critical impact on their operations. Regional limits are assessed in accordance with the principles of regional credit risk assessment adopted by the Group and the Group has carried out evaluations of the risk inherent in investing in each of the 83 regions within the Russian Federation to establish the regional credit risk ratio for each region and then uses this to formulated indicative loan investment risk limits for each region. Each region is classified into one of six groups, depending on the level of risk, ranging from minimum to impermissible. Based on these values, the Group invests primarily in regions where the risk level is indicated to be acceptable or higher but close to moderate.

Industry sector risk The Group is exposed to industry sector risk due to a high degree of concentration of financial investments in certain industry sectors in which the Group’s borrowers operate, including the manufacturing, construction, financial and other services, and trade sectors. Industry sector-related exposure reflects the potential for full or partial defaults on their obligations to the Group by businesses operating in various industry sectors in the event of unfavourable sector-related changes that may have a material impact on their operations. The Group’s RMD evaluates industry sector risk in accordance with the Group’s internal regulations, which assess risk based on a range of quantitative factors as well as a classification in accordance with one of six risk groups ranging from minimum to high, and the Group primarily invests only in those industries where such risk has been assessed to be acceptable to the Group. The quantitative evaluation of the industry sector risk includes the determination of the maximum permissible exposure to each relevant industry sector, which is used to set limits on the ability of individual departments and offices to transact with borrowers within each industry sector.

Operational Risk The Group’s operational risk management system (i.e. identification, assessment, monitoring, control and mitigation of operational risks) complies with the international approaches including those defined in the documents of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, the Committee of Sponsoring Organisations (COSO) and International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO), as well as with the recommendations of the CBR. The Bank’s Operational Risk Policy is the principal instrument used to manage operational risks.

All the Group’s activities are well-documented: the Group’s internal regulations describe business processes, decision making procedures and operational risk assessment methodology, including the requirements for hardware, software and telecommunication systems, information security and compliance with the applicable Law and Supervisor’s requirements.

To identify and assess operational risks the Group applies Risk Self Assessment.

134 To be able to quantify the exposure to operational risk the Group has been collecting data on operational losses since 2003, from which the Group has established a framework for systematically tracking and recording the frequency, severity and other relevant information on individual loss events, and this, combined with external loss data, scenario analyses and risk assessment factors allows the Group to assess operational risk exposure.

Risk Mapping (a technique used by the Group to identify the operational risks, their concentration and to determine what actions need to be taken in order to mitigate such risks and their concentration) is exercised to reveal the areas of weakness and develop subsequent actions to mitigate/control the risk.

The Group has implemented a multilevel system of limits on authorities of executive management and collective bodies, identified responsibility and interchangeability of employees in all segments of work.

The internal audit system complies with the requirements of the CBR. The internal audit function is to supervise that all units and employees of the bank observe the procedures prescribed by internal regulations.

The Group has several insurance programmes to mitigate the financial impact of those operational risks that can not be controlled. Among them are property insurance, Bankers Blanket Bond (“BBB”) and Directors and Officers Liability Policy (“D&O”) policies. Property insurance provides the coverage for damage to physical assets. The adequacy of property insurance program is re-estimated on a yearly basis. BBB consists of three sections: Crime Policy, Electronic & Computer Crime Policy and Professional Indemnity Policy. The BBB Policy total limit of liability is USD 30 million. D&O provides coverage of the losses resulting from claims for alleged wrongful acts while acting in their capacity as directors and officers and coverage of losses from securities claim by a third party against the Group. The D&O Policy total limit of liability is USD 25 million.

To provide business contingency, the Group has developed a special disaster recovery program that includes the establishment of a remote Reserve Business Centre (“RBC”). See “Business – Information Technology”. In addition to the contingency computer facilities there is a system of reserve communications with payment systems Visa and Europay, SWIFT and CB in existence.

Money Laundering Risk The Bank of Moscow anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism (“AML/CFT”) policies and procedures are based on Russian AML/CFT legislation and designed to identify and prevent money laundering and terrorist financing. To implement AML/CFT policies and procedures within the Group, the Financial Control Service (“FCS”) was established on 25 January 2002.

The FCS is responsible for:

• the functioning of a proper and effective AML/CFT system within the Group;

• the coordination and control of each part of the Group’s observance of the internal AML/CFT rules and procedures; and

• the submission of reports to the Federal Service for Financial Monitoring.

The Group’s core standards in relation to AML/CFT compliance are set out in “The Bank of Moscow Group AML/CFT Policy” dated 28 August 2008. The Compliance Office of the Bank is responsible for supervising and realisation of the Policy. The Policy sets out the standards expected of the Group in relation to:

• identification of customers and ultimate beneficiaries;

• proper management of money laundering risk and financing of terrorism risk;

• compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

• protection of good name and business reputation of the Group and of its customers; and

• promotion of the “Know Your Customer” (“KYC”) principle as a key principal for the Group.

135 The Compliance Office and FCS apply a risk-based approach in relation to AML/CFT that follows the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (“FATF”). Since October 2007, the Compliance Office has developed, agreed and adopted the following regulatory compliance documents:

• “Provision on establishment of the Compliance function in the Bank of Moscow”, which was adopted in October 2007;

• “Methodology for compliance risk assessment in the Bank of Moscow”, which was adopted in June 2008;

• “Order on intra-departmental exchange of information for the purpose of Compliance Risk;

• Management”, which was passed in July 2008; and

• “Compliance Risk Management Policy of the Bank of Moscow”, which was approved by the Board of Directors in August 2008.

The Compliance Office and FCS also monitors and ensures the Group’s compliance with all applicable Russian legislation in relation to AML/CFT, including:

• Federal Law dated 28 May 2001 No. 62-FZ “On Ratification of Convention regarding Laundering, Revelation, Forfeiture and Confiscation of Proceeds of Crime Activities”;

• The Anti-Money Laundering Law;

• Decree of the President dated 1 November 2001 No. 1263 “On the Authorised Body on Combating the Legalisation of Illegal Earnings (Money Laundering) and Terrorism Financing”; and

• CBR Regulation dated 19 August 2004 No. 262-P “On Identification by Credit Organisations of Customers and Beneficiaries for the Purposes of Combating the Legalisation of Illegal Earnings (Money Laundering) and Terrorism Financing”.

In order to implement the measures and procedures provided in the Anti-Money Laundering Law, the FCS formulated the “Rules on Internal Control for the Purpose of the AML/CFT Laws”, which were adopted by the Bank on 14 August 2009, (the “Rules”). The Rules define the process and procedures of internal control carried out by the head office, affiliates and branches of the Group and deal with the Group’s:

• KYC program (collection of documents, internal review, decision taking);

• risk management;

• risk reporting system; and

• risk awareness/compliance training.

Market Risk Market risk means a loss that can be suffered as a result of the devaluation of the Group’s positions in the event of an unfavourable development in market conditions and/or financial instruments (such as prices, interest or exchange rates). For the purposes of risk management, the Group distinguishes between interest, currency and securities market risks.

The Group’s market risk management is governed by the Market Risk Management Policy of the Group adopted by the President of the Bank on 15 May 2002. Responsibility for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies for interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and securities market risk lies with the RMD, which acts on the basis of a common set of rules, limits and restrictions set by the Financial Committee and the Credit Committee, and the RMD regularly reviews the Group’s compliance with such policies. The managers of each department and office individually have responsibility for managing risks in accordance with the policies set by the RMD but overall responsibility for coordinating the management of the Group’s interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, and securities market risk management through consolidating risks in all market sectors lies with the ALM Department. In an attempt to mitigate potential

136 losses caused by significant market shifts, the Financial Committee sets positions and stop-loss limits for use by the Treasury Department. These limits are established on the basis of probability methodologies and regular stress testing, the frequency of which depends on the Group’s assessment of prevailing market conditions (for example, as of January 2010, stress testing is to be carried out on a monthly basis).

The RMD reviews trading and investment limits for government and corporate securities, stop-loss limits and open position limits in foreign currencies and precious metals at least annually. On the basis of recommendations from the Financial Department and subject to the RMD’s limits, the Financial Committee sets limits on currency operations in the domestic and foreign markets and securities trading and precious metals. The Treasury Department and the RMD monitor compliance daily, identifying violations and the reasons behind them. The Group’s Executive Vice President and senior managers are immediately notified of limit violations and, upon such notification, take measures aimed at mitigating the violations, which may include the closing-out of positions or temporarily halting transactions in particular financial instruments. Control over operations in the securities market is carried out on a daily basis through automated systems (Reuters Condor System) that register, conduct and record such operations.

Interest rate risk The Group is exposed to interest rate risk, principally as a result of lending to customers and other banks at fixed interest rates in amounts and for periods that differ from those of term deposits and other borrowed funds at fixed interest rates. The majority of the Group’s assets and liabilities bear fixed interest rates. Due to changes in interest rates, the Group’s liabilities may have disproportionately high interest rates compared to those of its assets and vice versa. Interest margins on assets and liabilities having different maturities may increase as a result of changes in market interest rates. In practice, interest rates are often set on a short-term basis and contractually fixed interest rates on both assets and liabilities (other than retail customer deposits) are often reset based on current market conditions and mutual agreement.

Interest rate risk depends primarily on changes to the refinancing rate by the CBR and changes to rates on the interbank market. The procedures to measure interest rate risk adopted by the Group include two approaches to the evaluation of the interest rate risk: the interest rate sensitivity model and the gap model.

Interest rate sensitivity model. The Group evaluates its interest rate risk on the basis of analysis of sensitivity of financial results to changes in key financial market indicators, stress testing and scenario analysis, which take into account possible changes in the structure of its assets and liabilities. The results of these analyses are used in the preparation of long and short-term business plans and for establishing interest rates and limits for every type of financial instrument and business line. The Group also controls its interest rate risk by managing the structure of its assets and liabilities. The Group uses different instruments for hedging interest rate risk, including cross-currency and interest rate swaps. For the purposes of assessing interest rate risk, assets and liabilities are grouped by maturity, currency, interest rate type and core business lines.

Gap model. The Group calculates the difference or gap between assets and liabilities and conducts a sensitivity analysis to estimate unfavourable changes in interest rates that may happen over one year and 18 month periods. The Group’s model calculation is based on an assumption that all interest rate ranges applicable to assets and liabilities increase or decrease simultaneously by 1 percentage point on the subsequent date of calculation. From 2004 to 2007, the CBR decreased its refinancing rate by six per cent., from 16 per cent. in January 2004 to 10 per cent. in June 2007. However, in 2008, the refinancing rate steadily increased. Between April 2009 and June 2010, the CBR decreased its refinancing rate by 5.25 per cent. from 13 per cent. to 7.75 per cent. At the end of 2009, the Bank finalised the introduction of a new ALM (Asset Liability Management) system called “Kamakura Risk Manager” with the assistance of external consultants. The ALM system is produced by the Kamakura Corporation and distributed by Fiserv, Inc. This system will calculate and analyse interest rate risk on the basis of global best practices, Monte Carlo simulation methodologies, non-parallel shift simulation and stress testing.

As at 31 December 2009, the aggregate interest sensitivity of Rouble-denominated assets and liabilities of the Group was positive and amounted to RUB 412 million (that is, in the event all interest rates on Rouble- denominated assets and liabilities decrease by 1 percentage point, the Group’s income growth in the next 18 months would total RUB 412 million). As at 31 December 2009, aggregate interest sensitivity of Dollar-

137 denominated assets and liabilities amounted to positive USD 10 million. As at 27 December 2009, aggregate interest sensitivity of Euro-denominated assets and liabilities amounted to negative EUR 0.9 million.

As at 31 December 2008, the aggregate interest sensitivity of Rouble-denominated assets and liabilities of the Group was positive and amounted to RUB 39 million (that is, in the event all interest rates on Rouble- denominated assets and liabilities decrease by 1 per cent., the Group’s income growth in the next 18 months would total RUB 39 million.) As at 31 December 2008, aggregate interest sensitivity of Dollar-denominated assets and liabilities amounted to negative USD 0.6 million. As at 31 December 2008, aggregate interest sensitivity of Eurodenominated assets and liabilities amounted to negative EUR 5.3 million, compared to the aggregate interest sensitivity of Rouble-denominated assets and liabilities was positive and amounted to RUB 248.9 million compared to RUB 279.5 million as at 31 December 2007. As at 31 December 2007, aggregate interest sensitivity of Euro-denominated assets and liabilities amounted to positive EUR 2.0 million.

Traditionally, the Group used limited number of interest rate hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements (“FRAs”). However, the Group has recently broadened a set of interest rate management tools at its disposal, including:

• attempting to avoid significant gaps between assets and liabilities through setting medium-term criteria with respect to maturities and types of funds that are taken on deposit;

• managing its treasury and investment portfolios; and

• attempting to mitigate the risks of an unfavourable change in interest rates primarily through setting limits on the potential changes of interest negotiated in contracts.

As at 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007, the average effective interest rates on the main financial instruments in the major currencies were as follows:

2009 2008 2007 2009 2008 2007 2009 2008 2007 USD Euro RUB Assets Due from other banks 5.76% 5.43% 5.54% 0.62% 2.24% 4.02% 14.00% 17.05% 6.53% Loans to customers 9.19% 10.46% 9.72% 6.67% 9.79% 8.54% 12.09% 14.44% 10.97% Financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss 7.04% 8.4% 6.4% 5.33% 5.26% 3.58% 11.24 8.50% 8.67% Financial instruments available for sale 9.10% 9.75% ––––10.13 10.89% – Investments held to maturity – 7.50% – 5.63% 5.63% – 6.51 9.97% – ––––––– ––––––– ––––––– ––––––– ––––––– ––––––– ––––––– ––––––– ––––––– Liabilities Due to banks 2.14% 5.16% 5.78% 1.96% 4.97% 4.85% 8.59% 11.09% 5.55% Customer accounts 5.17% 7.52% 5.22% 4.27% 7.33% 6.10% 6.55% 6.56% 4.63% Debt securities issued 6.93% 7.26% 7.33% 4.42% 6.97% 4.96% 9.64% 8.19% 6.92% Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss – 5.21% – – 5.14% – – 8.00% –

Currency risk Currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group is exposed to currency risk from holding open positions in Russian Roubles and other currencies, primarily US Dollars and Euros. The Group manages its currency risk principally by setting open foreign currency position limits, stop loss limits, country and borrower limits for each relevant department and office, matching assets and liabilities in foreign currencies through TOM and SWAP transactions with the Group’s counterparties, providing for an opportunity to sell/buy funds denominated in foreign currencies, and by maintaining centralised control over exchange rates in currency operations and over the Group’s correspondent accounts in foreign currencies.

The Bank’s exposure to currency risk is measured on the basis of its open currency position, the limit of which is set by the CBR under RAS and may not exceed 20 per cent. of the Bank’s equity in all currencies

138 and 10 per cent. of capital denominated in certain currencies, including the balancing Rouble-denominated position. As at 31 December 2009, the Group’s position in US Dollars, net, was 2.4 per cent. of the Group’s equity and the Group’s position in Euros, net, was 12.1 per cent. of the Group’s equity. By comparison, as at 31 December 2008, the Group’s position in US Dollars, net, was 7.5 per cent. of the Group’s equity and the Group’s position in Euros, net, was 1.8 per cent. of the Group’s equity. The Group’s open currency position is monitored by the CBR on a daily basis and the Group believes it currently meets the requirements of the CBR with respect to control of its open currency position. The Group is exposed to potentially significant risk from sudden fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies in which the Group has significant open currency positions. The Group’s major open currency positions are concentrated in US Dollars and Euros. However, the Group’s open currency positions in Euros are substantially lower than its US Dollar positions.

The structure of the Group’s assets and liabilities denominated in various currencies and translated into Russian Roubles as at 31 December 2009 was as follows:

140 Securities market risk Securities market risk is the risk of changes in the value of debt obligations and equity as a result of interest rate or price movements. The Group’s main source of securities market risk exposure is its OFZ trading portfolio, as well as domestic corporate bonds, and corporate eurobonds. The maturity profile of its government securities portfolio and its sensitivity to market rates has increased due to higher volatility on the domestic and global capital markets. However, the Group’s portfolio of foreign currency-denominated debt of the Russian Federation was RUB 9,010.593 million as at 31 December 2009, compared to RUB 590.521 million as at 31 December 2008. The Group has set portfolio limits on various types and terms of debt securities, which it believes enable it to maintain its securities market risk at acceptable levels. The percentage of equities in the Group’s securities portfolio is not substantial: as at 31 December 2009, equities made up 4.2 per cent. of the Group’s total securities portfolio, compared with 4.1 per cent. as at 31 December 2008.

Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk resulting from a difference in the maturities of assets and liabilities, which may result in the Group being unable to meet its obligations in a timely manner. The Group is subject to liquidity requirements set by the CBR. The Financial Committee of the Group reviews and approves the liquidity management policy of the Group on an annual basis, or more frequently if the circumstances are deemed to merit it. See “Overview of the Banking Sector and Banking Regulation in the Russian Federation”. To manage its liquidity risk the Group uses various methods of scenario analysis and simulative, optimising and predictive modelling.

The CBR exercises strict control over liquidity risk by establishing instant (N2) and current (N3) liquidity statutory ratios. The risks related to sources of funding are controlled by the CBR in accordance with the capital adequacy (N1) standard and long-term (N4) liquidity standard. The CBR requires that such ratios are complied with on a daily basis and the Group is required to provide a monthly statement demonstrating that it has complied with such ratios on a daily basis for the relevant statement period. The Group was in compliance with all four standards according the CBR rules as at each monthly statement date during the financial period under review (being the years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007).

The basic technique of management and control of the Group’s liquidity is a gap management and duration matching of the Group’s assets and liabilities (GAP analysis). This technique allows assessing the Group’s position in the short, medium and long term with regard for planned changes in cash accounting and write- off. To manage instant liquidity, the Group applies the principle of anticipatory receipt and use in calculations of the information about its calendar transactions, customer deposits/write-offs on the basis of forecast and insider information. Instant liquidity is monitored and managed daily using an automated payment accounting system.

To manage its current and mid-term liquidity, the Group assesses liquidity on the basis of its payment calendar, which it generates regularly, as well as the effects on liquidity of major transactions which the Bank intends to enter into. Statistical analysis of current and long-term liquidity is based on a weekly computation of economic ratios as required by the CBR. This analysis looks at the change in the ratios over the preceding three months as well as any underlying factors (such as asset and liability changes) leading to such change.

Statistical analysis of instant, current and long-term liquidity is carried out by calculating economic ratios required by the CBR. If there are significant changes (in excess of 20 per cent.) in the values of ratios for the preceding three months, especially in the last month of the period, reasons (or movements in assets and liabilities), then the Group will undertake an analysis of the factors and/or changes in levels of assets and/or liabilities which may have caused the material changes in these ratios.

The main risk of an asset/liability mismatch arises largely due to the composition in the Group’s resource base, including budget funds owned by the City of Moscow and other on-demand liabilities, including retail term deposits that can be withdrawn immediately.

141 The Group divides its proprietary securities portfolio into the following three securities categories with the aim of achieving the appropriate liquidity/earnings ratio and ensuring the optimal management of assets and liabilities:

• Trading portfolio – decisions affecting the structure of this portfolio are taken by the traders within established limits; the securities in this portfolio are traded on a day-to-day basis;

• Liquidity management portfolio – decisions affecting the structure of this portfolio are taken by the Treasury Department of the Group; this portfolio includes liquid governmental securities that are traded by the Group to manage its liquidity risk; and

• Investment portfolio – decisions affecting the structure of this portfolio are taken by the Financial Committee of the Group; the securities in this portfolio are held for a period usually exceeding one year.

The scenario analysis performed by the Group looks at several different options of modelling payment flows that take into account planned, probable and strategic indicators of the Group’s performance. Within the framework of each scenario modelled, significant positive and negative fluctuations of liquidity are considered over the entire projected period taking into account information on current market conditions and levels of demand. Based on the scenario analysis, the Group’s liquidity indicators are assessed and tested for compliance with internal and external standard requirements.

In addition, the Group manages its liquidity risk by setting certain liquidity reserves which must be adopted upon the occurrence of various negative scenarios which the Group has identified. The amounts of these liquidity reserves are reviewed on a daily basis by reference to changes in customer deposit levels (which fluctuate on a seasonal basis) and then-current economic and developmental forecasts.

If a liquidity shortfall occurs, liquidity needs may have to be met from various sources, including:

• disposition of a portion of its most liquid assets;

• entering into “repo” transaction with the CBR and using other re-financing instruments offered by the CBR;

• adjusting interest rates and fees;

• limiting the growth of assets in a specific line of business;

• securing more long-term and short-term funding from its major clients, other banks and counterparties; and/or

• financial support provided by the Russian Government by attracting, on a tender basis, funds from the Ministry of Finance and state-owned corporations.

142 The following table shows the Group’s assets and liabilities by residual maturity as at 31 December 2009. The table also contains information regarding the Group’s liquidity exposure and the maturity profile of its balance sheet.

143 Mandatory cash balances with central banks are included within the no stated maturity category as the Group is unable to use them for operational management of its liquidity position.

As the above analysis is based on expected maturity, the entire portfolio of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is categorised as on demand and less than 1 month in accordance with the portfolio liquidity assessment by the management.

LOAN PORTFOLIO Loan classification and allowances For IFRS financial reporting purposes, the Group estimates of loan impairment allowances involve the following steps:

Identifying individually significant loans and determining whether an individually significant loan shows objective evidence of impairment. Special emphasis is placed on the timing of the contractual cash flows from interest payments and principal repayments. If the Group expects to collect all interest and principal due in full, but it is probable that those cash flows will be received later than the date agreed in the original contract, an impairment exercise is performed. Other impairment indicators include, but are not limited to: any significant financial difficulty of the borrower, an actual breach of loan contract, a high probability of bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation of the borrower or a historical pattern of collections of loans indicating that the entire principal and interest amount of a loan portfolio will not be collected.

Reviewing for impairment of individually significant loans that show objective evidence of impairment. An impairment review requires an estimate of the expected timing and amount of cash flows from interest and principal repayments and other cash flows, including amounts recoverable from guarantees and collateral, and discounting them at the loan’s original effective interest rate. The loan is impaired if its carrying amount

145 exceeds the estimated recoverable amount as defined above. A separate impairment loss on an impaired individually significant loan is recorded.

All remaining loans that have not been identified as individually significant are assessed on a portfolio basis if, and only if, there are signs that impairment is present in those portfolios. For the purpose of such a review, the portfolio of loans is grouped in pools, based on similar credit risk characteristics. Additionally, separate pools of loans could be identified that, for example, by virtue of belonging to a particular industry, had a greater probability of being impaired than other categories of loans.

146 Loan portfolio by product The Group has a portfolio of loans and other credit risk bearing products that is widely diversified by the structure of products. The Group’s loan products include: • loans and credit facilities; • Eurobonds and bonds issued by Russian companies and governmental authorities; • domestic bonds issued by Russian companies and governmental authorities; • off-balance sheet transactions (guarantees, letters of credit and sureties); • inter-bank loans; • discounted bills; • overdrafts; and • acceptance credits.

There were no material changes in the composition of major groups of products or in the share of each group of products (on a year-on-year basis) during each of the three years ended 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007. Loans and credit facilities accounted for the largest share of the Group’s loan products during these periods followed by transactions with bonds issued by Russian companies and governmental authorities and then by off balance sheet transactions and inter-bank loans.

Client concentration The Group lends predominantly to non-state related businesses with approximately 15.3 per cent. of the gross loan portfolio relating to loans to retail clients as at 31 December 2009. Lending to federally-owned entities represented 7.8 per cent. of the total gross loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009, compared to 2.7 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 3.6 as at 31 December 2007.

As at 31 December 2009, the 10 largest corporate borrowers accounted for 19.1 per cent. of the Group’s gross loans to customers and the 20 largest borrowers accounted for 27.5 per cent. of the Group’s gross loans to customers (compared to 14.4 per cent. and 21.8 per cent., respectively, as at 31 December 2008 and 12.6 per cent. and 20.2 per cent. as at 31 December 2007). A significant portion of the Group’s liabilities are from related parties and a portion of the Group’s earnings is derived from activities and transactions with related parties, including the City of Moscow and entities affiliated with the City of Moscow or over which the City of Moscow may be able, directly or indirectly, to exert a significant degree of influence. As at 31 December 2009, loans to the Group’s related parties accounted for 2.4 per cent. of the Group’s gross loan portfolio compared to 1.5 per cent. and 1.3 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Group’s Business and Industry – The City of Moscow may significantly influence the Group and take actions that conflict with the interests of Noteholders” and “Risk Factors – The Group may lose some or all of the City of Moscow’s business”.

The Group’s loan investments are still more concentrated in the Moscow region than any other area where the Group operates, with loan investments in the Moscow region representing 45.8 per cent. of the Group’s total loan portfolio as at 31 December 2009 compared to 46.1 per cent. and 46.7 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2007, respectively. This concentration is due in part to the fact that the City of Moscow is the majority shareholder in the Bank as well as the fact that Moscow and the Moscow region are the most attractive areas in the Russian Federation in terms of investments with the lowest level of risk measured in accordance with the principles for regional credit risk assessment adopted by the Group.

148 As at 31 December 2009, the Group had extended loans to customers operating in 82 of the 83 regions of the Russian Federation (compared to 82 and 79 as at 31 December 2008 and 2007, respectively). See also “– Geographic Risk”.

149 Currency The following tables shows the Group’s net loan portfolio by currency as at 31 December 2009, 2008 and 2007. The Group’s foreign currency-denominated loans are primarily in US Dollars and Euros. As a result, the Group groups together all loans in foreign currencies other than these two currencies.

As at 31 December 2009 2008 2007 RUB RUB RUB million % million % million % Russian Roubles 356,747.7 66.7 335,667.6 65.0 247,370.0 70.3 US Dollars 137,516.8 25.7 145,887.3 28.3 85,396.2 24.3 Euros 19,229.5 3.6 16,197.5 3.1 10,475.8 3.0 –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– Other currencies 20,995.5 3.9 18,811.4 3.6 8,380.2 2.4 –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– –––––––––– Total loans to customers, net1 ––––––––––534,489.5 –––––––––– 100.0 –––––––––– 516,563.8 –––––––––– 100.0 –––––––––– 351,622.2 –––––––––– 100.0 1 Net of allowances (provisions) for loan impairment. 66.7 per cent. of the Group’s net loan portfolio was denominated in Roubles as at 31 December 2009, compared to 65.0 per cent. and 70.3 per cent. as at 31 December 2008 and 2007. This concentration is primarily the result of the composition of the Group’s customer base, which mostly comprises legal and commercial entities targeting the domestic market. In most cases, such customers obtain proceeds and make payments in Roubles and require Rouble-denominated loans. The Group raised funding in Japanese Yen and Swiss Francs to minimise the foreign currency risk to the Group in offering such products. Apart from mortgage borrowers, the majority of customers requiring foreign currency-denominated banking products and services are often active in the export or international trade markets.

Provisions for impairment The Group adapted its procedure and methods for creating and calculating provisions in accordance with IAS 1, IAS 37 and IAS 39. Provisions can be created either for individual loans or for a group of similar loans. An estimated provision for loan losses with respect to a single loan product is determined by taking the loan product amount (that is, the principal amount of the loan reflected in the Group’s accounts of loan- related borrowings and borrowings equated thereto) and multiplying it by the provisioning ratio (determined as a percentage in accordance with an opinion of the division of the Group that is responsible for such loan products within a set range) and dividing the product by 100 per cent.

The division that is responsible for the loan product creates a provision based on its estimation of:

• that product’s credit risk in accordance with the Group’s internal methods;

• the transaction structure; and

• the quality of loan product servicing and other information that can affect the repayment of such loan.

In certain circumstances, the Financial Department may establish a provisioning ratio that is outside the set range. In accordance with IFRS, provisions are computed in the process of preparing the Group’s financial statements under IFRS as at the reporting date. If the quality of loan servicing or the borrower’s financial condition changes materially as at the date of preparation of financial statements under IFRS, or if such a loan is repaid after the reporting date, such information may be taken into consideration in the process of provisioning.

The crisis in the international financial markets has caused the Group to revise its approach to risk assessment and provisioning. The Group set a strategic goal to apply a more conservative approach in evaluating the quality and financial position of its borrowers, which included increased requirements in relation to the amount, quality and type of collateral. For a further discussion of the Group’s review of its

150 risk management strategies, see “Operating and Financial Review of the Group – Factors affecting the Group’s results of operations and financial condition – Provisions for Impairment”.

154 DIVIDEND POLICY Following the Russian economic crisis in August 1998, the Group has experienced considerable growth. Russian law does not permit the Bank to pay dividends, unless such dividends are approved by the Bank’s shareholders. In 2006, the Bank paid in full dividends for 2005 in the amount of RUB 127.4 million (or 3.0 per cent. of the Bank’s statutory profit after taxation in 2005). In 2007, the Bank declared and paid in full dividends for 2006 in the amount of RUB 165.6 million (or 2.94 per cent. of the Bank’s statutory profit after taxation in 2006). In 2008, the Bank declared and paid in full dividends for 2007 in the amount of RUB 232.4 million (or 3.0 per cent. of the Bank’s statutory profit after taxation in 2007).

The shareholders of the Bank decided not to pay dividends in 2010 and in 2009 for the year ended 31 December 2009 and for the year ended 31 December 2008 to allow the Bank to retain the funds that would otherwise have been paid to shareholders, with the intention that such funds would be best left at the disposal of the Bank during the global economic crisis.

Although the Bank currently plans to capitalise the majority of its profits, the Bank also intends to adhere to its current dividend policy (to pay not more than 7.0 per cent. of the Bank’s statutory profit after taxation as dividends for each financial year) for the foreseeable future.

156 Management Bodies In accordance with the Joint Stock Companies Law, the principal Russian legislation governing joint stock companies, and the Charter, the Bank’s management bodies are the general shareholders’ meeting, the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”), the management board (the “Management Board”) and the President – Chairman of the Management Board (the “President”).

General Shareholders’ Meeting The general shareholders’ meeting is the supreme management body of the Bank, which is held at least once a year. The following matters are in the exclusive authority of the general shareholders’ meeting and may not be delegated to other management bodies of the Bank:

• amendments to the Charter and increase or decrease of the Bank’s share capital;

• increase or decrease in the number of the members of the Board of Directors, election and early termination of the powers of its members;

• appointment of the Bank’s statutory and IFRS auditors, approval of annual reports and financial statements;

• distribution of the Bank’s profits and coverage of the Bank’s losses;

• approval of the manner of communication of information to shareholders;

• reorganisation or liquidation of the Bank;

• appointment and termination of the powers of the Internal Audit Commission;

• appointment and termination of the powers of the President;

• approval of certain major transactions and interested party transactions;

• approval of the Bank’s participation in holding companies, industry groups and associations and other commercial associations; approval of internal documents regulating the Bank’s management bodies;

• payment of dividends; and

• certain other matters provided for in the Joint Stock Companies Law and the Charter.

Decisions of the Bank’s general shareholders’ meeting are generally made by a simple majority of votes. Amendments to the Charter, transactions involving assets with a balance sheet value exceeding 50 per cent. of the Bank’s total assets and the reorganisation or liquidation of the Bank require approval by a three-quarters majority of votes of shareholders present at the general shareholders’ meeting.

Board of Directors The Board of Directors is responsible for general management matters, with the exception of those matters that are designated by law as being within the exclusive authority of the general shareholders’ meeting. Members of the Board of Directors are elected by the shareholders for a one-year term by cumulative voting. Under cumulative voting, each shareholder may cast an aggregate number of votes equal to the number of shares held by such shareholder multiplied by the number of members on the Board of Directors, and the shareholder may give all such votes to one candidate or spread them between two or more candidates. Under the Joint Stock Companies Law the number of the members of the Board of Directors may not be less than 5. The Charter provides that the Board of Directors may not have fewer than five or more than 15 members. The particular number of the members of the Board of Directors is determined by a resolution of a general shareholders’ meeting. The current Board of Directors of the Bank consists of 15 members: seven members of the Board of Directors represent the City of Moscow, the majority shareholder of the Bank; two members of the Board of Directors, Mukhadin A. Eskindarov and Mikhail V. Tsarev were elected as independent directors. The members of the Board of Directors may be re-elected an unlimited number of times.

157 Management Board The Management Board is the executive management body of the Bank and is elected by the Board of Directors, except for the Chairman of the Management Board (the President) who is elected by the shareholders. The Board of Directors determines the number of Management Board members, which cannot exceed 15. As at the date of this Prospectus, the Management Board consists of 13 members, including the President of the Bank. The Management Board meets monthly and on an ad hoc basis and makes its decisions by simple majority, provided that at least half of its members are present. The Management Board is responsible for the day-to-day management and administration of the Bank.

President of the Bank The President of the Bank is elected by the general shareholders’ meeting for a term of four years. The President reports to the Board of Directors and the general shareholders’ meeting. The President represents and acts in the name of the Bank and is ultimately responsible for all operational matters of the Bank.

Internal Audit Commission The Group is required under Russian law and the Charter to maintain an internal audit commission (the “Internal Audit Commission”). The Internal Audit Commission assists the Group with oversight responsibility and reviews its systems of internal controls and its auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes. Under Russian law and the Charter, a member of the Internal Audit Commission must be independent and may not simultaneously serve as a member of the Board of Directors or hold a management position in the Group, such as the President.

5.2 Prepayment in the event of Taxes or Increased Costs If the Borrower is required to pay any Additional Amount as provided by Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts) or any Tax Indemnity Amount as provided by Clause 7.2 (Tax Indemnity), or if (for whatever reason) the Borrower would have to or has been required to pay additional amounts pursuant to Clause 9 (Change in Law; Increase in Cost), and in any such case such obligation cannot or could not be avoided by the Borrower taking reasonable measures available to it, then the Borrower may (without premium or penalty), upon not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Lender and the Trustee (which notice shall be irrevocable), prepay the Loan in whole (but not in part) on the date specified in the notice, together with any amounts then payable under Clauses 7.1 (Additional Amounts), 7.2 (Tax Indemnity) or 9 (Change in Law; Increase in Cost) and any other amounts payable under this Agreement and pay the accrued and unpaid interest on such outstanding principal amount up to and excluding such prepayment date.

Prior to giving any such notice in the event of the Borrower being obliged to make an additional payment as referred to in this Clause 5.2, the Borrower shall address and deliver to the Lender and the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate confirming that the Borrower would be required to make such payment and that the obligation to make such payment cannot or could not be avoided by the Borrower taking reasonable measures available to it, supported by an opinion of an independent tax adviser of recognised standing in the relevant tax jurisdiction.

If such a basis has not been determined within such 30 days (or on such earlier date as the Lender shall certify to be necessary to comply with such regulation, regulatory requirement or directive), then upon written notice by the Lender to the Borrower the Borrower shall prepay the Loan (without penalty or premium) in whole (but not in part) in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loan together with interest accrued to the date of prepayment and all other amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, on the next Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the Lender shall certify to be necessary to comply with such regulation, regulatory requirement or directive.

5.4 Reduction of Loan upon Cancellation of Agreed Funding The Borrower or any other member of the Group may from time to time purchase Agreed Funding in the open market or by tender or by a private agreement at any price. If such Agreed Funding so purchased by the Borrower or any other member of the Group is delivered by the Borrower to the Lender (as issuer of such Agreed Funding) for surrender and cancellation, the Loan shall be deemed to have been prepaid in an amount corresponding to the aggregate principal amount of such Agreed

178 Funding so surrendered and cancelled, together with accrued interest and other amounts (if any) thereon and no further payment shall be made or required to be made by the Borrower in respect of such amounts.

5.5 Payment of Other Amounts and Costs of Prepayment If the Loan is to be prepaid by the Borrower pursuant to any of the provisions of this Clause 5 (other than clause 5.4), the Borrower shall, simultaneously with such prepayment, pay to the Lender accrued interest thereon to the date of actual payment and all other sums payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement.

5.6 Provisions Exclusive The Borrower shall not prepay or repay all or any part of the amount of the Loan except at the times and in the manner expressly provided for in this Agreement. The Borrower shall not be permitted to re-borrow any amounts prepaid or repaid.

6. PAYMENTS 6.1 Making of Payments All payments of principal and interest to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made unconditionally by credit transfer to the Lender not later than 12.00 noon (Zurich time) one Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Date or the Repayment Date (as the case may be), and in the case of any payments made in connection with Clause 5 (Repayment and Prepayment) one Business Day prior to the date on which such prepayment or repayment is made, and in each case, in Same-Day Funds to the Account.

6.2 No Set-Off or Counterclaim All payments to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made in full without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for or on account of any set-off or counterclaim.

6.3 Alternative Payment Arrangements If, at any time, it shall become impracticable, by reason of any action of any governmental authority or any change of law, exchange control regulations or any similar event, for the Borrower to make any payments hereunder in the manner specified in Clause 6.1 (Making of Payments), then the Borrower may agree with the Lender alternative arrangements for such payments to be made; provided that, in the absence of any such agreement, the Borrower shall be obliged to make all payments due to the Lender in the manner specified herein.

7. TAXES 7.1 Additional Amounts All payments made by the Borrower under or in respect of this Agreement shall be made (except to the extent required by law) free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future Taxes imposed, collected, withheld, assessed or levied on behalf of any

179 government or political subdivision or territory or possession of any government or authority or Agency therein having the power to tax (each a “Taxing Authority”) within Russia or Ireland. If the Lender or Borrower becomes subject at any time to any taxing jurisdiction other than or in addition to Russia or Ireland, as the case may be, references to jurisdiction in this Clause 7.1 shall be construed as references to Russia and/or Ireland and/or such other jurisdiction and in addition, upon enforcement of the fixed charge in the Finance Documents over certain rights, benefits and/or obligations under this Agreement, references in this Clause 7.1 to “Ireland” shall be construed as references to the jurisdiction which the Trustee is a resident of and acting through for tax purposes.

If the Borrower is required by applicable law to make any deduction or withholding from any payment under or in respect of this Agreement for or on account of any such Taxes referred to in the preceding paragraph of this Clause 7.1, it shall, on the date such payment is made, pay to the Lender such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary to ensure that the Lender receives and retains (net of tax) a net amount in Swiss Francs equal to the full amount which it would have received and retained (net of tax) had payment not been made subject to such Taxes, shall promptly account to the relevant Taxing Authority (within the time specified by legislation or assessment) for the relevant amount of such Taxes so withheld or deducted and shall deliver to the Lender without undue delay evidence satisfactory to the Lender of such deduction or withholding and of the accounting therefore to the relevant Taxing Authority. If the Lender is or will be subject to any liability or required to make any payment for or on account of Taxes in relation to a sum received or receivable (or any sum deemed for the purposes of Taxes to be received or receivable) under or in respect of any Agreed Funding, the Borrower shall on demand pay to the Lender an amount in Swiss Francs as applicable equal to the loss, liability or cost which the Lender, or as the case may be, Trustee has or will have (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax.

7.2 Tax Indemnity Without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts), if the Lender notifies the Borrower (setting out in reasonable detail the nature and extent of the obligation with such evidence as the Borrower may reasonably require) that it is obliged (or would be but for the limited recourse nature of the Agreed Funding) to make any withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes from any payment that is due, or would otherwise be due but for the imposition of any such withholding or deduction for or on account of any such Taxes, pursuant to any Agreed Funding, and the Lender is required to pay additional amounts to the Agreed Funding Source in connection therewith, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender, no later than one Business Day prior to the date on which payment is due to the Agreed Funding Source, an additional amount equal to such additional amount as is required to be paid in order that the net amount received by the Agreed Funding Source after such deduction or withholding will equal the respective amounts which would have been received by the Agreed Funding Source in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that the Lender shall immediately upon receipt from any Paying Agent of any sums paid pursuant to this provision, to the extent that the Agreed Funding Source is not entitled to such additional amounts pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreed Funding, repay such additional amounts to the Borrower as are recovered (it being understood that none of the Lender, or any Paying Agent shall have any obligation to determine whether any Agreed Funding Source is entitled to such additional amount).

Without prejudice to, and without duplication of the provisions of Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts), if at any time the Lender makes or is required to make any payment to a Person (other than to or for the account of the Agreed Funding Source) on account of Tax (other than Taxes on income or capital gains payable by the Lender) in respect of this Agreement or the Loan or in respect of the Agreed Funding imposed by any Taxing Authority in the jurisdiction in which the Lender is resident for tax purposes, or any liability in respect of any such payment is asserted, imposed, levied or assessed against the Lender, the Borrower shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following, and in any event within 30 calendar days of, written demand (setting out in reasonable detail the nature and extent of the obligation with such evidence as the Borrower may reasonably require) made by the Lender, pay to the Lender an amount equating to any such payment or liability, or any claim, demand, action,

180 damages or loss in respect thereof, together with any interest, penalties, costs and expenses (including without limitation, legal fees and any applicable value added tax) payable or incurred in connection therewith.

Any payments required to be made by the Borrower under this Clause 7.2 are collectively referred to as “Tax Indemnity Amounts”. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Clause 7.2 shall not apply to any withholding or deductions of Taxes with respect to the Loan which are subject to payment of Additional Amounts under Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts).

If the Lender intends to make a claim for any Tax Indemnity Amounts, it shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof.

7.3 Tax Credits and Refunds If an Additional Amount is paid under Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts) or a Tax Indemnity Amount is paid under Clause 7.2 (Tax Indemnity) by the Borrower and the Lender, in its absolute discretion, determines that it has received or been granted a credit against, a relief from, remission for, or a repayment of any Taxes, then if and to the extent that the Lender determines that such credit, relief, remission or repayment is in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or withholding giving rise to such increased payment, or, as the case may be, in respect of an additional payment with reference to the loss, liability or cost giving rise to the additional payment, the Lender shall, to the extent that it determines in its absolute discretion that it can do so without prejudice to its right to the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, and without worsening the position it would have been in had such Additional Amount or Tax Indemnity Amount not been required to be repaid, repay to the Borrower an amount equal to such amount as is attributable to such deduction or withholding or, as the case may be, such loss, liability or cost.

Nothing contained in this Clause 7.3 shall interfere with the right of the Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige the Lender to disclose any confidential information or any information relating to its tax affairs, any computations in respect thereof, or its business or any part of its business.

If the Borrower makes a withholding or deduction for or on account of Taxes from a payment under or in respect of this Agreement, and if an Additional Amount is paid under Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts) or a Tax Indemnity Amount is paid under Clause 7.2 (Tax Indemnity) by the Borrower, the Borrower may apply on behalf of the Lender to the relevant Russian Taxing Authority for a payment to be made by such authorities to the Lender with respect to such Tax. If, whether following a claim made on its behalf by the Borrower or otherwise, the Lender receives such a payment (“Russian Tax Payment”) from the Russian Taxing Authority with respect to such Taxes, it will as soon as reasonably possible notify the Borrower that it has received that payment (and the amount of such payment); whereupon, provided that the Borrower has notified the Lender in writing of the details of an account (the “Borrower Account”) to which a payment or transfer should be made, and that the Lender is able to make a payment or transfer under applicable laws and regulations and without worsening the position it would have been in had such Additional Amount or Tax Indemnity Amount not been required to be paid, the Lender will pay or transfer an amount equal to the Russian Tax Payment to the Borrower Account.

7.4 Tax Treaty Relief The Lender, at the cost of the Borrower, shall make reasonable and timely efforts to assist the Borrower to obtain relief from withholding of Russian income tax pursuant to the double taxation treaty between Russia and the jurisdiction in which the Lender is incorporated, including its obligations under Clause 7.5 (Delivery of Forms).

7.5 Delivery of Forms The Lender shall, within 30 days of the request of the Borrower, use its best endeavours to deliver to the Borrower a certificate issued by the Revenue Commissioners in Ireland (or by the competent

181 Agency in such Qualifying Jurisdiction in which the Lender or any successor thereto is resident for tax purposes) confirming the status of the Lender as a resident of Ireland for tax purposes for the appropriate year (or such Qualifying Jurisdiction in which the Lender or any successor thereto is resident for tax purposes) and (to the extent it is able to do so under applicable law including Russian laws) from time to time, deliver to the Borrower (at the specific request of the Borrower) such duly completed application form and, if required, any other documents, together with a power of attorney authorising the Borrower to make the relevant filings with the Russian tax authorities and such other information as may need to be duly completed and delivered by the Lender to enable the Borrower to apply to obtain relief from deduction or withholding of Russian tax after the date of this Agreement or, as the case may be, to apply to obtain a tax refund if a relief from deduction or withholding of Russian tax has not been obtained. The application form and, if required, other documents issued by the Lender referred to in this Clause 7.5 shall be duly signed by the Lender and stamped or otherwise approved by the Revenue Commissioners in Ireland and the power of attorney shall be duly signed and apostilled or otherwise legalised. If a relief from deduction or withholding of Russian tax or a tax refund under this Clause 7.5 has not been obtained and further to an application of the Borrower to the relevant Russian tax authorities the latter requests the Lender’s Rouble bank account details, the Lender shall at the request of the Borrower (a) use reasonable efforts to procure that such Rouble bank account of the Lender is duly opened and maintained, and (b) thereafter furnish the Borrower with the details of such Rouble bank account. The Borrower shall pay for all costs associated, if any, with opening and maintaining such Rouble bank account and shall use its reasonable efforts to assist the Lender with all required information in order to obtain the certificate mentioned above.

7.6 Tax Treatment The Borrower and the Lender hereby agree to treat the Loan as a debt obligation of the Borrower payable to the Lender, as the beneficial owner of such debt obligation, for Russian and Irish tax purposes.

7.7 Mitigation If at any time either party hereto becomes aware of circumstances which would or might, then or thereafter, give rise to an obligation on the part of the Borrower to make any deduction, withholding or payment as described in Clause 5.3 (Prepayment in the Event of Illegality), 7.1 (Additional Amounts) or 7.2 (Tax Indemnity), then, without in any way limiting, reducing or otherwise qualifying the Lender’s rights, or the Borrower’s obligations, under such Clauses, such party shall promptly upon becoming aware of such circumstances notify the other party in writing, and, thereupon the parties shall consider and consult with each other in good faith with a view to finding, agreeing upon and implementing a method or methods by which any such obligation may be avoided or mitigated and, to the extent that the parties can do so without taking any action which in the reasonable opinion of such party is prejudicial to its own position, take such reasonable steps as may be reasonably available to it to avoid such obligation or mitigate the effect of such circumstance, including in the case of the Lender (without limitation) by transfer of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (but only in accordance with the terms and conditions of the other Finance Documents); provided, however, that the Lender shall, in no circumstances, be required to undertake any expense prior to being ensured to its satisfaction that it will be reimbursed therefore.

7.8 Lender Notification The Lender agrees promptly, upon becoming aware thereof, to notify the Borrower if it ceases to be resident in Ireland or a Qualifying Jurisdiction or if any of the representations set forth in Clause 10.2 (Lender’s Representations and Warranties) are no longer true and correct.

8. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT The obligation of the Lender to make the Advance shall be subject to the conditions precedent that as at the Closing Date (a) the representations and warranties set out in Clause 10.1 (Borrower’s Representations and Warranties) are true and accurate as if made and given on the Closing Date with respect to the facts and

182 circumstances then existing, (b) no Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and (c) the Lender shall have received the full funding of the Advance from the Agreed Funding Source and that funding shall be and remain available in full to be on-lent to the Borrower.

9. CHANGE IN LAW; INCREASE IN COST 9.1 Compensation In the event that after the date of this Agreement there is any change in or introduction of any tax, law, regulation, regulatory requirement or official directive (whether or not having the force of law but, if not having the force of law, the observance of which is in accordance with the generally accepted financial practice of financial institutions in the country concerned) or in the interpretation or application thereof by any person charged with the administration thereof and/or any compliance by the Lender in respect of the Loan or the Facility with any request, policy or guideline (whether or not having the force of law but, if not having the force of law, the observance of which is in accordance with the generally accepted financial practice of financial institutions in the country concerned) from or of any central or other fiscal, monetary or other authority, Agency or any official of any such authority which:

(a) subjects or will subject the Lender to any Taxes with respect to payments of principal of or interest on the Loan or any other amount payable under this Agreement (other than any Taxes payable by the Lender on its overall net income, capital gains or any Taxes referred to in Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts)); or

(b) increases or will increase the taxation of or changes or will change the basis of taxation of payments to the Lender of principal of or interest on the Loan or any other amount payable under this Agreement (other than any such increase or change which arises by reason of any increase in the rate of tax payable by the Lender on its overall net income, capital gains or as a result of any Taxes referred to in Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts)); or

and if as a result of any of the foregoing:

(i) the cost to the Lender of making, funding or maintaining the Loan or the Facility is increased; or

(ii) the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to or received by the Lender hereunder is reduced; or

(iii) the Lender makes any payment or foregoes any interest or other return on or calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable by it from the Borrower hereunder or makes any payment or foregoes any interest or other return on or calculated by reference to the gross amount of the Loan,

then subject to the following, and in each such case:

(a) the Lender shall, as soon as practicable after becoming aware of such increased cost, reduced amount or payment made or foregone, give written notice to the Borrower, together with a certificate signed by an authorised signatory of the Lender describing in reasonable detail the introduction, change or request which has occurred and the country or jurisdiction concerned and the nature and date thereof and demonstrating the connection between such introduction, change or request and such increased cost, reduced amount or payment made or foregone, and setting out in reasonable detail the basis on which such amount has been calculated, and all relevant supporting documents evidencing the matters set out in such certificate; and

(b) the Borrower, in the case of paragraphs (i) and (iii) above, shall on demand by the Lender, pay to the Lender such additional amount as shall be necessary to compensate the Lender for such

183 increased cost, and, in the case of paragraph (ii) above, at the time the amount so reduced would otherwise have been payable, pay to the Lender such additional amount as shall be necessary to compensate the Lender for such reduction, payment or foregone interest or other return; provided, however, the amount of such increased cost shall be deemed not to exceed an amount equal to the proportion thereof which is directly attributable to this Agreement,

and further provided, however, that this Clause 9.1 will not apply to or in respect of any matter for which the Lender has already been compensated under Clause 7.1 (Additional Amounts) or Clause 7.2 (Tax Indemnity).

9.2 Lender Tax Event If, as a result of a change in the law, practice or interpretation of the law, the Lender is unable to obtain relief in computing its Irish tax liability for some or all of the interest payable on the Agreed Funding (having duly and timely claimed such relief and notwithstanding receipt of confirmation from the relevant tax authorities that such relief is available), the Borrower agrees to pay such additional amount to the Lender that the Lender reasonably determines will leave it in the same after tax position as if it were able to obtain tax relief for all of the interest payable on the Agreed Funding. The Borrower’s obligation to pay such additional amounts shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

9.3 Mitigation In the event that the Lender becomes entitled to make a claim pursuant to Clause 9.1 (Compensation) or 9.2 (Lender Tax Event) the Lender shall consult in good faith with the Borrower and shall use reasonable efforts (based on the Lender’s reasonable interpretation of any tax, law, regulation, requirement, official directive, request, policy or guideline) to reduce, in whole or in part, the Borrower’s obligations to pay any additional amount pursuant to such Clause, except that nothing in this Clause 9.3 shall obligate the Lender to incur any costs or expenses in taking any action hereunder unless the Borrower agrees to reimburse the Lender such costs or expenses.

10. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 10.1 Borrower’s Representations and Warranties The Borrower makes the representations and warranties to the Lender set out in this Clause 10.1 with the intent that such shall form the basis of this Agreement and acknowledges that the Lender has entered into this Agreement in reliance on these representations and warranties. Each of the representations and warranties in this Clause 10.1 shall be deemed to be repeated by the Borrower on the date of the Advance.

(a) It is duly organised and incorporated and validly existing under the laws of Russia, is not in liquidation or receivership and has the power and legal right to enter into and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and to borrow the Advance; that it has taken all necessary corporate, legal and other action required to authorise the borrowing of the Advance on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and to authorise the execution and delivery of this Agreement and all other documents to be executed and delivered by it in connection with this Agreement, and the performance of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and, except where a failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect, has the corporate power and legal right to own its property and to conduct its business as currently conducted.

(b) This Agreement has been or will be duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and as to enforceability, (i) to general principles of equity, (ii) with respect to the enforceability of a judgment whether there is a treaty in force relating to the mutual recognition of foreign judgments, and (iii) to the fact that certain gross-up provisions may not be enforceable under Russian law.

184 (c) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement will not conflict with or result in any breach or violation of (i) any law or regulation or any order of any governmental, judicial or public body or authority in Russia, (ii) the constitutive documents, rules and regulations of the Borrower, or (iii) to the extent such conflict, breach or violation might have a Material Adverse Effect, any agreement or other undertaking or instrument to which the Borrower is a party or which is binding upon the Borrower or any of its assets, nor result in the creation or imposition of any Liens on any of its assets pursuant to the provisions of any such agreement or other undertaking or instrument.

(d) All consents, licences, notifications, authorisations or approvals of, or filings with, any governmental, judicial and public bodies and authorities of Russia (including, without limitation, the Central Bank, where applicable), if any, in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, legality, validity, enforceability, and admissibility in evidence of this Agreement (subject to a Russian legal requirement to provide to a Russian court a duly certified translation thereof into Russian) have been obtained or effected and are and shall remain in full force and effect, other than in each case, any such consent, licence, notification, authorisation, approval or filing required in relation to exchange control regulations which may only be obtained after the date of this Agreement.

(e) No event has occurred and is continuing that constitutes, or that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute, an Event of Default or a default under any agreement or instrument evidencing any Indebtedness of the Borrower, and no such event will occur upon the making of the Loan.

(f) There are no judicial, arbitral or administrative actions, proceedings or claims (including, without limitation, with respect to Taxes) current or pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, against the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries, which are reasonably likely to be adversely determined against the Borrower or such Material Subsidiary and the adverse determination of which would singly or in the aggregate (a) prohibit the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Borrower’s compliance with its obligations hereunder, or (b) have a Material Adverse Effect.

(g) Other than Liens which are not prohibited under Clause 11.1 (Negative Pledge), each of the Borrower and each of its Material Subsidiaries has good title to the property necessary for the conduct of its business, duly registered, where applicable, in its name and free from adverse third party claims that are likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan rank at least pari passu with all its other unsecured and unsubordinated Indebtedness except for those whose claims are preferred by any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, moratorium or similar laws of general application.

(h) The most recent audited consolidated financial statements of the Borrower:

(i) were prepared in accordance with IFRS, as consistently applied;

(ii) disclose all liabilities (contingent or otherwise) and all unrealised or unanticipated losses of the Group as at the date thereof in accordance with IFRS; and

(iii) save as disclosed therein, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition and the results of operations of the Group as at the dates and in respect of the periods for which they were prepared.

(i) Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, there have not been any changes in share capital or any increase in non-current liabilities or any material decreases in current assets, total assets or shareholders’ equity of the Group as compared with amounts shown in the consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower as at the date of the most recent interim financial statements and (ii) since the most recent interim consolidated financial statements, there have not been any material decreases, in revenue, gross profit or result for the period, in each case except as set forth in the Prospectus.

185 (j) Under the laws of Russia in force at the date of this Agreement, the execution, delivery and enforceability of this Agreement is not subject to any tax, duty, fee or other charge, including, without limitation, any registration or transfer tax, stamp duty or similar levy, imposed by or within Russia or any political subdivision or Taxing Authority thereof or therein (other than state duty paid on any claim, petition or other application filed with a Russian court).

(k) Neither the Borrower nor its property has any right of immunity from suit, execution, attachment or other legal process in respect of any action or proceeding relating in any way to this Agreement.

(l) Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of law except where failure to be so in compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(m) There are no labour strikes, disturbances, lockouts, slowdowns or stoppages of employees, or other employment disputes, of or against the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries which exist or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, threatened, imminent or pending, except for those that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(n) Under current laws and regulations of Russia and Ireland and any respective political subdivisions thereof, and based upon the representations of the Lender set forth in Clause 10.2 (Lender’s Representations and Warranties) and compliance by the Lender with Clause 7.5 (Delivery of Forms), all payments of principal and/or interest, Additional Amounts, Tax Indemnity Amounts or any other amounts payable on or in respect of the Loan may be paid by the Borrower to the Lender in Swiss Francs and will not be subject to Taxes under laws and regulations of Russia, or any political subdivision or Taxing Authority thereof or therein, respectively, and will otherwise be free and clear of any other Tax, duty, withholding or deduction in Ireland, Russia, or any political subdivision or Taxing Authority thereof or therein (provided, however, that the Borrower makes no representation as to any income or similar tax of Ireland (or any Qualifying Jurisdiction) which may be assessed thereon) and without the necessity of obtaining any governmental authorisation in Russia or any political subdivision or Taxing Authority thereof or therein.

(o) All licences, consents, examinations, clearances, filings, registrations and authorisations which are necessary to enable the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to own its assets and carry on its business are in full force and effect.

(p) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Material Subsidiaries is materially overdue in the filing of any tax returns, reports and other information required to be filed by it with any appropriate Taxing Authority, and each such tax return, report or other information was, when filed, accurate and complete in all material respects; and each of the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries has duly paid, or has made adequate reserves for, all Taxes required to be paid by it and any other assessment, fine or penalty levied against it (other than those it is contesting in good faith), and to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, no Tax deficiency is currently asserted against the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries and no judicial, arbitral or administrative actions, proceedings or claims with respect to Taxes are current or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened or pending against the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries, the adverse determination of which would singly or in the aggregate (i) prohibit the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Borrower’s compliance with its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) have a Material Adverse Effect.

10.2 Lender’s Representations and Warranties The Lender represents and warrants to the Borrower as follows:

(a) the Lender is duly incorporated under the laws of Ireland and has full power and capacity to execute this Agreement and to undertake and perform the obligations expressed to be assumed by it herein and the Lender has taken all necessary action to approve and authorise the same;

186 (b) the execution of this Agreement and the documents or deeds evidencing or relating to the Agreed Funding and the undertaking and performance by the Lender of the obligations expressed to be assumed by it herein and therein will not conflict with, or result in a breach of or default under, the laws of Ireland or the constitutive documents, rules and regulations of the Lender or any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound or in respect of Indebtedness in relation to which it is a surety;

(c) this Agreement has been or will be duly authorised, executed and delivered and constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the Lender enforceable against the Lender in accordance with their respective terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity);

(d) all Irish authorisations, consents and approvals required by the Lender for or in connection with the execution of this Agreement and the performance by the Lender of the obligations expressed to be undertaken by it herein, have been obtained and are in full force and effect;

(e) the Lender is a company duly incorporated under Irish law as a public limited company, registered under number 461566 in Ireland and having its registered office at 5 Harbourmaster Place, IFSC, Dublin 1, Ireland. As such it will be considered as an Irish resident company fully subject to the Irish tax legislation. The Lender will thus be liable to Irish taxes on its income, wherever sourced. The Lender may also benefit from the network of tax treaties signed by Ireland, including the double tax treaty concluded on 29 April 1994 between Ireland and Russia. Save for any that may be created as a result of entering into this Agreement or any other loan agreements with the Borrower and the transactions contemplated therein at the date hereof, it does not have a permanent establishment in Russia; and

(f) the Lender will book the Loan on the asset side of its balance sheet and any arrangements with the Agreed Funding Source as a liability.

11. COVENANTS For so long as any amount remains outstanding under this Loan Agreement:

11.1 Negative Pledge Neither the Borrower nor any of its Material Subsidiaries will create or permit to subsist any Lien (other than any Lien upon, or with respect to, any present or future assets or revenues or any part thereof which is created pursuant to any securitisation, asset-backed financing or like arrangement and whereby all payment obligations secured by such Lien, or having the benefit of such Lien, are to be discharged solely from such assets or revenues, provided that such Liens shall not be incurred if that would result in the principal amount of such encumbered Relevant Indebtedness exceeding 20 per cent. of the total assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (determined by reference to the balance sheet date for the Borrower’s most recent IFRS Fiscal Period)) upon or in respect of any of its undertakings, property, income, assets or revenues, present or future, to secure any Relevant Indebtedness unless, at the same time or prior thereto, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder are to the satisfaction of the Trustee secured equally and rateably therewith or benefit from such other security or other arrangements, as the case may be, to the satisfaction of the Trustee.

11.2 Disposals The Borrower shall not and shall ensure that none of its Subsidiaries shall sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of by one or more transactions or series of transactions (whether related or not), the whole or any part of its revenues or its assets (except for sales or other disposals of current assets in the ordinary course of its trading and payments of cash) unless the terms of such transactions are substantially no less favourable to the Borrower, or the relevant Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those which would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction. This Clause 11.2 does not

187 apply to any transaction between the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries, or between any Subsidiaries of the Borrower, or to any sale or disposal of current assets in the ordinary course of its trading. With respect to a sale or disposal of capital assets involving aggregate payments or value in excess of 20 per cent. of the gross assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined by reference to the balance sheet date for the Borrower’s most recent IFRS Fiscal Period, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender a written opinion from an Independent Appraiser to the effect that such sale is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary, as the case may be, and such written opinion shall be conclusive and binding on the parties.

11.3 Maintenance of Authorisations The Borrower shall take all necessary action to obtain, and do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary to maintain in full force and effect all consents, licences, approvals and authorisations, and make or cause to be made all registrations, recordings and filings, which may at any time be required to be obtained or made in Russia for the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or for the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence in Russia thereof.

11.4 Financial Information (a) The Borrower hereby undertakes that so long as the Loan or any other sum owing hereunder remains outstanding it shall deliver to the Lender and the Trustee (i) within six months after the end of each of the Group’s financial years, copies of the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements for such financial year, and (ii) within four months after the end of the first half of each of the Group’s financial years, copies of the Group’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for such period, in each case prepared in accordance with IFRS consistently applied with the corresponding financial statements for the preceding period.

(b) The Borrower hereby undertakes that it shall deliver to the Lender and the Trustee, without undue delay, such additional information regarding the financial position or the business of the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as the Lender may reasonably request, including providing certificates to the Trustee as contemplated in the Finance Documents.

(c) The Borrower undertakes to furnish to the Lender and the Trustee such information as the SIX Swiss Exchange (or any other or further stock exchange or stock exchanges or any relevant authority or authorities on which the Agreed Funding may, from time to time, be listed or admitted to trading) may require in connection with the listing or admission to trading on such stock exchange or relevant authority of such Agreed Funding.

11.5 Ranking of Claims The Borrower shall ensure that at all times the claims of the Lender against it under this Agreement rank at least pari passu with the claims of all the Borrower’s other unsecured creditors save those whose claims are preferred by any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws of general application.

11.6 Financial Covenant The Borrower shall not, and the Borrower shall ensure that each other Material Subsidiary which carries on a banking business shall not, permit its total capital ratio to fall below the minimum total capital ratio required by the CBR, in the case of the Borrower, and, in the case of each Material Subsidiary, each relevant banking authority responsible for setting and/or supervising capital adequacy requirements for financial institutions in the jurisdictions in which it carries on its banking business, such calculation to be made by reference to, in the case of a Material Subsidiary, the latest annual non-consolidated audited financial statements of such Material Subsidiary or, if such Material Subsidiary does not prepare audited financial statements, the latest annual non-consolidated unaudited financial statements of such Material Subsidiary, provided, however, that, should the Borrower or any

13.5 Independent Obligation Clause 13.4 (Indemnification) constitutes a separate and independent obligation of the Borrower from its other obligations under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Finance Documents to which it is a party or any other obligations of the Borrower in connection with the issue of the Agreed Funding by the Lender and shall not affect, or be construed to affect, any other provision of this Agreement or any such other obligations.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the obligation of the Borrower in respect of any amount due in Swiss Francs under this Agreement shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in Swiss Francs that the party entitled to receive such payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other currency (after any costs of exchange) on the Business Day immediately following the day on which such party receives such payment. If the amount in Swiss Francs that may be so

192 purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lender against any deficiency in Swiss Francs. Any obligation of the Borrower not discharged by payment in Swiss Francs shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect. If the amount of Swiss Francs that may be so purchased exceeds the amount originally due, the Lender shall promptly pay the amount of the excess to the Borrower.

14. SURVIVAL The obligations of the Borrower and the Lender pursuant to Clauses 7 (Taxes), 13.4 (Indemnification) and 13.7 (Currency Indemnity) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the drawdown of the Facility and the repayment of the Loan.

(b) The Borrower agrees that if the Lender incurs a liability to pay any stamp, registration and documentary taxes or similar charges (if any) imposed by any person in Russia, Switzerland or Ireland which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement, or admissibility into evidence of this Agreement, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lender on demand an amount equal to such stamp or other documentary taxes or duties and shall indemnify the Lender against any and all costs and expenses properly documented which may be incurred or suffered by the Lender with respect to, or resulting from, delay or failure by the Borrower to procure the payment of such taxes or similar charges.

15.3 Waivers No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Lender or the Borrower, any right, power or privilege hereunder and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, or remedies provided by applicable law.

15.4 Prescription Subject to the Lender having previously received from the Borrower the relevant principal amount or interest amount, the Lender shall repay to the Borrower the principal amount or the interest amount in respect of any Agreed Funding upon the relevant certificates pertaining thereto becoming void pursuant to their terms and conditions (as confirmed to the Lender by the Trustee).

19.2 Lender’s Option At any time before the Lender has nominated an arbitrator to resolve any Dispute or Disputes pursuant to Clause 20 (Arbitration) the Lender may elect, at its sole option, by notice in writing to the Borrower that such Dispute(s) shall instead be heard by the courts of England or by any other court of competent jurisdiction, as more particularly described in Clause 19.3 (Jurisdiction). Following any such election, no arbitral tribunal shall have jurisdiction in respect of such Dispute(s).

19.3 Jurisdiction In the event that the Lender serves a written notice of election in respect of any Dispute(s) pursuant to Clause 19.2 (Lender’s Option), the Borrower agrees for the benefit of the Lender that the courts of England shall have jurisdiction to hear and determine any such Dispute(s) and, for such purposes, irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts. Subject to Clause 20 (Arbitration), nothing in this clause shall (or shall be construed so as to) limit the right of the Lender to bring proceedings

195 (“Proceedings”) for the determination of any Dispute(s) in any other court of competent jurisdiction, nor shall the bringing of such Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the bringing of Proceedings by the Lender in any other jurisdiction (whether concurrently or not) if and to the extent permitted by law.

19.4 Appropriate Forum Each of the parties to this Agreement irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the courts of England being nominated as the forum to hear and determine any Proceedings and to settle any Disputes, and agrees not to claim that any such court is not a convenient or appropriate forum and further irrevocably agrees that a final and conclusive judgment in any Proceedings brought in the English courts with competent jurisdiction shall be conclusive and binding and may be enforced in the courts of any other jurisdiction (to the extent permitted by law).

19.5 Non-exclusivity The submission to the jurisdiction of the courts of England shall not (and shall not be construed so as to) limit the right of the Lender or the Trustee to take Proceedings against another party in any other court of competent jurisdiction to the extent permitted by any applicable law, nor shall the taking of Proceedings in connection with this Agreement in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of Proceedings by the Lender or the Trustee in any other jurisdiction (whether concurrently or not) or in any other court of competent jurisdiction to the extent permitted by any applicable law.

19.6 Service of Process (Borrower) The Borrower hereby agrees that the process by which any Proceedings in England are begun may be served on it by being delivered to Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited at Fifth Floor, 100 Wood Street, London EC2V 7EX or its other principal place of business in England for the time being. If such person is not or ceases to be effectively appointed to accept service of process on the Borrower’s behalf, the Borrower shall, on written demand from the Lender, appoint a further person in England to accept service of process on its behalf and, failing such appointment within 15 days, the Lender shall be entitled to appoint such a person by written notice to the Borrower.

20. ARBITRATION In the case of any dispute which may arise out of or in connection with this Agreement (a “Dispute”) the Lender may elect, by notice in writing to the Borrower, to finally resolve such claim by arbitration in accordance with the following provisions. The Borrower hereby agrees that (regardless of the nature of the

196 Dispute) any Dispute may be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (the “Rules”) which are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Clause 20. The seat of arbitration shall be London, England, and the language of the arbitration shall be English. The number of arbitrators shall be three, each of whom shall not be interested in the dispute or controversy, shall have no connection with any party thereto and shall be a lawyer, an attorney or barrister experienced in international securities transactions. The claimant and respondent shall each nominate an arbitrator and the two arbitrators so nominated, jointly, shall nominate a third arbitrator to serve as the Chairman of the Tribunal. If a Dispute shall involve more than two parties, the parties thereto shall attempt to align themselves in two sides (i.e., claimant and respondent) each of which shall appoint an arbitrator as if there were only two sides to such dispute, claim controversy or cause of action. If such alignment and appointment shall not have occurred within 20 calendar days after the initiating party serves the arbitration demand or if a Chairman has not been selected within 30 calendar days of the selection of the second arbitrator, the Arbitration Court of the London Court of International Arbitration shall appoint an arbitrator on behalf of the respondent or claimant parties or the Chairman, as the case may be. The parties and the Arbitration Court may appoint arbitrators from among the nationals of any country, whether or not a party is a national of that country. Sections 45 and 69 of the Arbitration Act 1996 shall not apply. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive or other punitive type damages.

The fact that an arbitration award has been made, the content of that award and the arbitration proceedings contemplated by this Clause 20 shall be kept confidential by the parties (other than for purposes of enforcement of the award) and may not be disclosed save as required by law or regulatory authority. The decision of the arbitrators shall be final, binding and enforceable upon the parties and judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In the event that the failure of a party to comply with the decision of the arbitrators requires any other party to apply to any court for enforcement of such award, the non-complying party shall be liable to the other for all costs of such enforcement proceedings, including reasonable legal fees and costs. This Clause 20 is without prejudice to the role of Independent Appraiser under Clause 11.2 (Disposals).

21. CONTRACTS (RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES) ACT 1999 Apart from the Trustee, a person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Agreement.

22. COUNTERPARTS This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when so executed shall constitute one and the same binding agreement between the parties.

23. SCHEDULE The Schedule to this Agreement constitutes an integral part hereof.

24. SEVERABILITY In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

25. LANGUAGE The language which governs the interpretation of this Agreement is the English language.

26. AMENDMENTS Except as otherwise provided, this Agreement may not be varied except by an agreement in writing by all parties.

197 27. LIMITED RECOURSE AND NON-PETITION The Borrower hereby agrees that it shall have recourse in respect of any claim against the Lender only to sums in respect of principal, interest or other amounts (if any), as the case may be, actually received and retained (net of tax) from the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement (the “Lender Assets”), subject always to (i) the Security Interests (as defined in the Trust Deed) and (ii) to the fact that any claims of the Joint Lead Managers shall rank in priority to any claims of the Borrower, and that any such claim by any and all such Joint Lead Managers or the Borrower shall be reduced pro rata so that the total of all such claims does not exceed the aggregate value of the Lender Assets after meeting claims secured on them. The Trustee having realised the Lender Assets, neither any of the Joint Lead Managers or the Borrower nor any person acting on its behalf shall be entitled to take any further steps against the Lender to recover any further sums and no debt shall be owed by the Lender to such person in respect of any such further sum. In particular, neither any Joint Lead Manager nor the Borrower (nor any other person acting on behalf of any of them) shall be entitled at any time to institute against the Lender, or join in any institution against the Lender of any bankruptcy, administration, moratorium, reorganisation, controlled management, arrangement, insolvency, examinership, winding-up or liquidation proceedings or similar insolvency proceedings under any applicable bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligation of the Lender relating to the Notes or otherwise owed to the creditors, save for lodging a claim in the liquidation of the Lender which is initiated by another party or taking proceedings to obtain a declaration or judgment as to the obligations of the Lender.

No parties to this Agreement shall have any recourse against any director, shareholder, or officer of the Lender in respect of any obligations, covenants or agreement entered into or made by the Lender in respect of this Agreement, except to the extent that any such person acts in bad faith or is negligent in the context of its obligations.

The provisions of this Clause 27 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

The Issuer has authorised the creation, issue and sale of the Notes for the sole purpose of financing the CHF 350,000,000 loan by the Issuer (the “Loan”) to Joint stock commercial bank – Bank of Moscow (open joint stock company) (the “Borrower”). The Issuer and the Borrower have recorded the terms of the Loan in an agreement (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) dated 8 September 2010 between the Issuer (in its capacity as lender thereunder) and the Borrower.

In each case where Swiss Franc amounts of principal, interest and additional amounts, if any, due pursuant to Condition 7 (Taxation) are stated herein or in the Trust Deed to be payable in respect of the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer to make any such payment shall constitute an obligation only to account to the Noteholders (as defined below) on each date upon which such Swiss Franc amounts of principal, interest and additional amounts, if any, are due in respect of the Notes, for an amount equivalent to the sums of principal, interest, Additional Amounts (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and Tax Indemnity Amounts (as defined in the Loan Agreement), if any, actually received and retained (net of tax) by, or for the account of, the Issuer pursuant to the Loan Agreement, less any amount in respect of the Reserved Rights (as defined below). Noteholders must therefore rely solely and exclusively upon the covenant to pay under the Loan Agreement, the benefit of the Security Interests (as defined below) and the credit and financial standing of the Borrower. Noteholders shall have no recourse (direct or indirect) to any other assets of the Issuer.

References herein to the holders of the Notes (the “Noteholders”) are to the persons entitled to quotal co-ownership interests in the permanent global note representing the Notes (the “Permanent Global Note”) and to the holders of the Notes, if definitive Notes have been printed in accordance with Condition 1 (Form, Denomination, Title, Ownership, Definitive Notes). References herein to Couponholders are to the Noteholders, as long as the Notes are represented by the Permanent Global Note, and to the holders of Coupons if definitive Notes have been printed in accordance with Condition 1 (Form, Denomination, Title, Ownership, Definitive Notes).

Security The Issuer (as lender) has under the Trust Deed:

(A) charged by way of a first fixed charge to the Trustee (i) all its rights, title and interests and benefits in and to principal, interest and other amounts paid and payable now or at any time to it under the Loan Agreement and (ii) all of its rights, title, interest and benefit in and to receive amounts paid and payable now or at any time to it under any claim, award or judgment relating to the Loan Agreement (other than its right to amounts in respect of any rights, title and interests and benefits of the Issuer under the following clauses of the Loan Agreement: Clause 7.2 (Tax Indemnity) (excluding Tax Indemnity Amounts), Clause 9 (Change in Law; Increase in Cost), Clause 13 (Default Interest and Indemnity) (limited in the case of Clause 13.2 (Default Interest) and Clause 13.7 (Indemnification) to the extent that the Issuer’s claim is in respect of sums due under one of the aforementioned clauses of the Loan Agreement) Clause 15.2 (Stamp Duties) and Clause 16 (Fees, Costs and Expenses) (to the extent that the Issuer’s claim is in respect of one of the aforementioned clauses of the Loan Agreement) (such rights referred to herein as the “Reserved Rights”));

200 (B) charged by way of a first fixed charge to the Trustee all of the Issuer’s rights, title and interests and benefits in and to all sums held on deposit from time to time, in an account in Geneva in the name of the Issuer with BNP Paribas (Suisse) SA (the “Swiss Principal Paying Agent”) together with the debts represented thereby (other than interest from time to time earned thereon and the Reserved Rights) (the “Account”) pursuant to the Trust Deed; and

(C) assigned absolutely to the Trustee all of the Issuer’s rights, title and interests and benefits whatsoever, both present and future, whether proprietary, contractual or otherwise under or arising out of, evidenced by or pursuant to the Loan Agreement (including, without limitation, the right to declare the Loan immediately due and payable and to take proceedings to enforce the obligations of the Borrower thereunder) (save for those rights expressed to be charged or excluded in (A) above) (the “Loan Administration Transfer”), together, the “Security Interests”.

In certain circumstances, the Trustee (subject to it being indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction) may be required by Noteholders holding at least one-quarter of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding or by an Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Trust Deed) of the Noteholders to exercise certain of its powers under the Trust Deed (including those arising in connection with the Security Interests).

The Notes are also subject to the provisions of an agency agreement dated 10 September 2010 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Agency Agreement”) among the Issuer, the Borrower, BNP Paribas (Suisse) SA as Swiss Principal Paying Agent, and the other agents named therein (together with the Swiss Principal Paying Agent, the “Agents”, which expression includes any additional or successor paying agent appointed from time to time in connection with the Notes), and the Trustee. Certain provisions of these Conditions are summaries of the Trust Deed, the Loan Agreement and the Agency Agreement and are subject to their detailed provisions. The Noteholders are bound by, and are deemed to have notice of, all the provisions of the Trust Deed, the Loan Agreement and the Agency Agreement applicable to them. Copies of the Trust Deed, the Loan Agreement and the Agency Agreement are available for inspection during normal business hours at the registered office for the time being of the Swiss Principal Paying Agent, being at the date hereof 2, place de Hollande, 1204 Geneva, Switzerland and at the registered office of the Trustee, being at the date hereof One Canada Square, London, E14 5AL, United Kingdom.

1. Form, Denomination, Title, Ownership, Definitive Notes (a) Form and Denomination: The Notes are in bearer form and are represented by the Permanent Global Note, which shall be deposited by the Swiss Principal Paying Agent with SIX SIS Ltd or any other intermediary in Switzerland recognised for such purposes by SIX Swiss Exchange Ltd (SIX SIS Ltd or any such other intermediary, the “Intermediary”). Once the Permanent Global Note is deposited with the Intermediary and entered into the accounts of one or more participants of the Intermediary, the Notes will constitute intermediated securities (Bucheffekten) in accordance with the provisions of the Swiss Federal Intermediated Securities Act (Bucheffektengesetz). The Notes will be in denominations of CHF 5,000 each and multiples thereof.

(b) Title and Ownership: Each Holder (as defined below) shall have a quotal co-ownership interest (Miteigentumsanteil) in the Permanent Global Note to the extent of his claim against the Issuer, provided that for so long as the Permanent Global Note remains deposited with the Intermediary, the co-ownership interest shall be suspended and the Notes may only be transferred by the entry of the transferred Notes in a securities account of the transferee. The records of the Intermediary will determine the number of Notes held through each participant in that Intermediary. In respect of the Notes held in the form of Intermediated Securities, the holders of the Notes (the “Holders”) will be the persons holding the Notes in a securities account (Effektenkonto) which is in their name, or in the case of intermediaries (Verwahrungsstellen) holding the Notes for their own account in a securities account (Effektenkonto) which is in their name.

(c) Exchange for Definitive Notes: The Permanent Global Note is exchangeable in whole but not in part (free of charge to the Holder) for the definitive Notes if the Swiss Principal Paying Agent determines that (1) SIX SIS Ltd (“SIS”) is closed for business for a continuous period of 14 days (other than by reason of holidays, statutory or otherwise) or announces an intention permanently to

201 cease business or does in fact do so and no alternative clearing system satisfactory to the Trustee is available, or (2) the printing of definitive Notes is necessary or (3) if, under Swiss or any applicable foreign laws, the enforcement of obligations under the Notes can only be ensured by means of effective bearer definitive Notes. Neither the Issuer nor the Noteholders shall at any time have the right to effect or demand the conversion of the Permanent Global Note into, or the delivery of, uncertificated securities (Wertrechte) or Definitive Notes (Wertpapiere) and Coupons.

2. Status and Limited Recourse The Notes are limited recourse secured obligations of the Issuer.

The sole purpose of the issue of the Notes is to provide the funds for the Issuer to finance the Loan to the Borrower. The Notes constitute the obligation of the Issuer to apply an amount equal to the gross proceeds from the issue of the Notes solely for financing the Loan and to account to the Noteholders for a Swiss Franc amount equivalent to sums of principal, interest, Additional Amounts and Tax Indemnity Amounts or other amounts, if any, actually received and retained (net of tax) by, or for the account of, the Issuer pursuant to the Loan Agreement (less any amounts in respect of the Reserved Rights). The rights of the Issuer to receive such sums is being charged by way of security to the Trustee by virtue of the Security Interests as security for the Issuer’s payment obligations under the Trust Deed and in respect of the Notes.

Payments in respect of the Notes and the Coupons equivalent to the sums actually received by, or for the account of, the Issuer by way of principal, interest, Additional Amounts or Tax Indemnity Amounts or other amounts, if any, under the Loan Agreement (less any amounts in respect of the Reserved Rights) will be made pro rata among all Noteholders and the Couponholders (subject to Condition 7 (Taxation)) on the payment dates on which such payments are due in respect of the Notes subject to the conditions attaching to, and in the currency of, the corresponding payment made in accordance with the Loan Agreement. The Issuer shall not be liable to make any payment in respect of the Notes or the Coupons other than as expressly provided herein and in the Trust Deed. Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall be under any obligation to exercise in favour of the Noteholders any rights of set off or of banker’s lien or to combine accounts or counterclaim that may arise out of other transactions between the Issuer and the Borrower.

Noteholders have notice of, and have accepted, these Conditions and the contents of the Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement and the Loan Agreement. It is hereby expressly provided that, and Noteholders are deemed to have accepted that:

(i) neither the Issuer nor the Trustee makes any representation or warranty in respect of, and shall at no time have any responsibility for, or liability, or obligation in respect of the performance and observance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Agreement or (save as otherwise expressly provided in the Trust Deed and paragraph (vii) below) the recoverability of any sum of principal, interest, Additional Amounts, Tax Indemnity Amounts or other amounts, if any, due or to become due from the Borrower under the Loan Agreement;

(ii) neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall at any time have any responsibility for, or obligation or liability in respect of, the condition (financial, operational or otherwise), creditworthiness, affairs, status, nature or prospects of the Borrower;

(iii) neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall at any time have any responsibility for, or obligation or liability in respect of, any misrepresentation or breach of warranty or any act, default or omission of the Borrower under or in respect of the Loan Agreement;

(iv) neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall at any time have any responsibility for, or liability or obligation in respect of, the performance and observance by the Swiss Principal Paying Agent or any other Agents of their respective obligations under the Agency Agreement;

(v) the financial servicing and performance of the terms of the Notes depend solely and exclusively upon the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Loan Agreement, its covenant to pay under the Loan Agreement and its credit and financial standing;

202 (vi) the Issuer (and, pursuant to the Loan Administration Transfer, the Trustee) will be entitled to rely on self-certification by the Borrower and certification by third parties as a means of monitoring whether the Borrower is complying with its obligations under the Loan Agreement and shall not otherwise be responsible for investigating any aspect of the Borrower’s performance in relation thereto and, subject as further provided in the Trust Deed, the Trustee will not be liable for any failure to make any investigations which might be made by a security holder in relation to the property which is expressed to be the subject of the Security Interests for the Notes, and shall not be bound to enquire into or be liable for any defect or failure in the right or title of the Issuer to the secured property whether such defect or failure was known to the Trustee or might have been discovered upon examination or enquiry or whether capable of remedy or not, nor will it have any liability for the enforceability of the security expressed to be created by the Security Interests whether as a result of any failure, omission or defect in registering or filing or otherwise protecting or perfecting such security and the Trustee will have no responsibility for the value of such security; and

(vii) the Issuer will not be responsible for any withholding or deduction or for any payment on account of Taxes (as defined in the Loan Agreement) required to be made by the Issuer on or in relation to any sum received by it under the Loan Agreement which will or may affect payments made or to be made by the Borrower under the Loan Agreement save to the extent that it has actually received Additional Amounts, Tax Indemnity Amounts or other amounts under the Loan Agreement in respect of such withholding or deduction and then only to the extent of those amounts actually received; the Issuer shall, furthermore, not be obliged to take any actions or measures as regards such deductions or withholdings other than those set out in this context in Clause 7 (Taxes) and Clause 9 (Change in Law; Increase in Cost) of the Loan Agreement and the Trust Deed.

Save as otherwise expressly provided herein and in the Trust Deed, no proprietary or other direct interest in the Issuer’s rights under or in respect of the Loan Agreement or the Account, exists for the benefit of the Noteholders. Subject to the terms of the Trust Deed, no Noteholder or Couponholder will have any entitlement to enforce any of the provisions in the Loan Agreement or have direct recourse to the Borrower except through action by the Trustee under the Security Interests. Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee pursuant to the Loan Administration Transfer shall be required to take proceedings to enforce payment under the Loan Agreement unless, in the case of the Trustee, it has been indemnified and/or secured by the Noteholders or Couponholders to its satisfaction against all liabilities, proceedings, claims and demands to which it may thereby become liable and all costs, charges and expenses which may be incurred by it in connection therewith.

The obligations of the Issuer under the Notes shall be solely to make payments of amounts in aggregate equal to each sum actually received and retained (net of tax) by or for the account of the Issuer (as Lender) from the Borrower in respect of principal, interest or, as the case may be, other amounts relating to the Loan pursuant to the Loan Agreement the right to receive will, inter alia, be assigned to the Trustee as security for the Issuer’s payment obligations in respect of the Notes. Accordingly, all payments to be made by the Issuer under the Notes will be made only from and to the extent of such sums received or recovered and retained (net of tax) by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Trustee (following a Relevant Event or (if applicable) an Event of Default). Noteholders shall look solely to such sums for payment to be made by the Issuer under the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer to make payments in respect of the Notes will be limited to such sums and Noteholders will have no further recourse to the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s other assets in respect thereof. In the event that the amount due and payable by the Issuer under the Notes exceeds the sums so received or recovered, the right of any person to claim payment of any amount exceeding such sums shall be extinguished, and Noteholders may take no further action to recover such amounts.

None of the Noteholders or the other creditors (nor any other person acting on behalf of any of them) shall be entitled at any time to institute against the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, administration, moratorium, reorganisation, controlled management, arrangement, insolvency, examinership, winding-up or liquidation proceedings or similar insolvency proceedings under any applicable bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligation of the Issuer relating to the Notes or otherwise owed to the creditors, save for lodging a claim in the liquidation of the Issuer which is initiated by another party or taking proceedings to obtain a declaration or judgment as to the obligations of the Issuer.

203 No Noteholder shall have any recourse against any director, shareholder, or officer of the Issuer in respect of any obligations, covenants or agreement entered into or made by the Issuer in respect of the Notes.

The obligations of the Issuer to make payments as stated in the previous paragraphs constitute direct and limited recourse obligations of the Issuer which will at all times rank pari passu among themselves.

Payments made by the Borrower under the Loan Agreement to, or to the order of, the Trustee or (before such time that the Issuer has been required by the Trustee, pursuant to the terms of the Trust Deed, to pay to or to the order of the Trustee) the Swiss Principal Paying Agent will satisfy pro tanto the obligations of the Issuer in respect of the Notes, except to the extent that there is a subsequent failure to make payment to the Noteholders or Couponholders.

3. Issuer’s Covenant As provided in the Trust Deed, so long as any of the Notes remain outstanding (as defined in the Trust Deed), the Issuer will not, without the prior written consent of the Trustee or an Extraordinary Resolution or Written Resolution (each as defined in the Trust Deed), agree to any amendments to or any modification or waiver of, or authorise any breach or proposed breach of, the terms of the Loan Agreement or the Trust Deed and will act at all times in accordance with any instructions of the Trustee from time to time with respect to the Loan Agreement except as otherwise expressly provided in the Trust Deed and the Loan Agreement. Any such amendment, modification, waiver or authorisation made with the consent of the Trustee shall be binding on the Noteholders and the Couponholders and, unless the Trustee agrees otherwise, any such amendment or modification shall be notified by the Issuer to the Noteholders and the Couponholders in accordance with Condition 14 (Notices).

4. Interest (a) Accrual of Interest: On each Interest Payment Date (as defined below) or as soon after the same is received, the Issuer shall account to the Noteholders for an amount equivalent to amounts of interest actually received by or for the account of the Issuer pursuant to the Loan Agreement (with respect to the corresponding interest payment date thereunder), pursuant to which interest accrues on the Loan at a rate of 4.50 per cent. per annum (the “Interest Rate”).

The amount of interest payable in respect of the Loan for any Interest Period shall be calculated by applying the Rate of Interest to the Loan and rounding the resulting figure to the nearest cent (half a cent being rounded upwards). If interest on the Loan is required to be calculated for any period other than an Interest Period, it shall be calculated by applying the Interest Rate to the principal amount of the Loan then outstanding and multiplying the product by the actual number of days in the relevant period, from (and including) the first day in such period to (but excluding) the last day in such period, divided by the number of days in the Interest Period in which the relevant period falls (including the first such day but excluding the last), and rounding the resulting figure to the nearest cent (half cent being rounded upwards).

In this Condition 4, “Interest Payment Date” and “Interest Period” shall have the meaning given to them in the Loan Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt the amount of interest payable on each Interest Payment Date shall be CHF 15,750,000.

(b) Overdue Interest: In the event that, and to the extent that, the Issuer actually receives any amounts in respect of interest on overdue interest from the Borrower, under the Loan Agreement (less any amount in respect of the Reserved Rights), the Issuer shall account to the Noteholders for an amount equivalent to the amounts in respect of interest on overdue interest actually so received.

5. Redemption and Purchase (a) Final redemption: Unless the Loan is previously prepaid pursuant to Clause 5 (Repayment and Prepayment) of the Loan Agreement, the Borrower will be required to repay the Loan (in full and not in part) on its due date as provided in the Loan Agreement and, subject to such repayment, all the

204 Notes will be redeemed at their principal amount on 10 September 2013 subject to Condition 6 (Payments).

(b) Redemption by the Issuer: The Notes shall be redeemed by the Issuer in whole, but not in part, at any time, on giving not less than 30 and not more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Noteholders, the Trustee, the Swiss Principal Paying Agent and the Borrower (which notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify a date for redemption, being the same date as that set out in the notice of prepayment) in accordance with Condition 14 (Notices) at the outstanding principal amount thereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid to the date fixed for redemption and any additional amounts in respect thereof pursuant to Condition 7 (Taxation), if, immediately before giving such notice, the Issuer satisfies the Trustee that the Issuer has received a notice of prepayment from the Borrower pursuant to Clause 5.2 (Prepayment in the event of Taxes or Increased Costs) of the Loan Agreement or that the Issuer has issued a notice of prepayment to the Borrower pursuant to Clause 5.3 (Prepayment in the event of Illegality) of the Loan Agreement.

Prior to the publication of any notice of redemption referred to in this Condition 5(b), the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate signed by two directors of the Issuer stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption in accordance with this Condition 5(b). A copy of the Borrower’s notice of prepayment or details of the circumstances contemplated by Clause 5.2 (Prepayment in the event of Taxes and Increased Costs) or Clause 5.3 (Prepayment in the event of Illegality) of the Loan Agreement (as the case may be) and the date fixed for redemption shall be set out in the notice.

The Trustee shall be entitled to accept any notice or certificate delivered by the Issuer in accordance with this Condition 5(b) as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the applicable circumstances in which event they shall be conclusive and binding on the Noteholders.

Upon the expiry of any such notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders as is referred to in this Condition 5(b), the Issuer shall be bound to redeem the Notes in accordance with this Condition 5(b), subject to Condition 6 (Payments).

(c) No other redemption: Except where the Loan is accelerated pursuant to Clause 12.3 (Default Remedies) of the Loan Agreement, the Issuer shall not be entitled to redeem the Notes otherwise than as provided in Condition 5(b) (Redemption by the Issuer) above.

(d) Purchase: The Borrower or any of its subsidiaries may at any time purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise and at any price. Such Notes may be held, reissued, resold or delivered to the Issuer for surrender and cancellation. The Loan shall be deemed to have been prepaid in an amount corresponding to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so surrendered and cancelled.

Notes held by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, will cease to carry the right to attend and vote at meetings of Noteholders and will not be taken into account, inter alia, for the purposes of Conditions 11 (Meetings of Noteholders; Modification and Waiver; Substitution) and 12 (Enforcement).

(e) Cancellation: All Notes purchased by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and surrendered to the Issuer pursuant to Clause 5.4 (Reduction of Loan upon Cancellation of Agreed Funding) of the Loan Agreement shall be cancelled in accordance with the Agency Agreement.

6. Payments (a) Payments of Principal: Payments of principal shall be made in Swiss Francs only against presentation and (provided that payment is made in full) surrender (or, in the case of part payment only, endorsement) of the relevant Notes at an office of the Swiss Principal Paying Agent outside the United States or by way of the Swiss Interbank Clearing System in accordance with usual Swiss market practice.

(b) Payments of Interest: Payments of interest shall be made only against presentation and (provided that payment is made in full) surrender (or, in the case of part payment only, endorsement) of the relevant

205 Coupon at an office of the Swiss Principal Paying Agent outside the United States or by way of the Swiss Interbank Clearing System in accordance with usual Swiss market practice.

(c) Payments subject to Applicable Law: Payments in respect of the Notes are subject in all cases to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable in the place of payment, but without prejudice to the provisions of Condition 7 (Taxation). No commission or expenses shall be charged to the Noteholders or Couponholders in respect of such payments.

(d) Deduction for unmatured Coupons: If a Note is presented without all unmatured Coupons relating thereto, a sum equal to the aggregate amount of the missing Coupons will be deducted from the amount of principal due for payment; provided, however, that, if the gross amount available for payment is less than the principal amount of such Note, the sum deducted will be that proportion of the aggregate amount of such missing Coupons which the gross amount actually available for payment bears to the principal amount of such Note. Each sum of principal so deducted shall be paid in the manner provided in Condition 6(a) above against presentation and (provided that payment is made in full) surrender of the relevant missing Coupons.

(e) Payments on business days: If the due date for payment of any amount in respect of any Note or Coupon is not a business day in the place of presentation, the holder thereof shall not be entitled to payment of the amount due until the next following business day in such place and shall not be entitled to any further interest or other payment in respect of any such delay. In this paragraph, “business day” means a day on which a payment is to be made hereunder and commercial banks are open for presentation and payment of bearer debt securities and for dealings in foreign currencies in such place of presentation and, in the case of a transfer to a Swiss Franc account as referred to above, which is also a day on which dealings in foreign currencies may be carried on in Switzerland.

(f) Accrued Interest: In addition, if the due date for redemption or repayment of a Note is not an Interest Payment Date, interest accrued from the preceding Interest Payment Date or, in respect of the first Interest Payment Date only, from the date of issuance of the Notes, shall be payable only as and when actually received by or for the account of the Issuer pursuant to the Loan Agreement.

(g) Payment other than in respect of matured Coupons: Payments of interest other than in respect of matured Coupons shall be made only against presentation of the relevant Notes at an office of the Swiss Principal Paying Agent.

(h) Partial payment: If the Swiss Principal Paying Agent makes a partial payment in respect of any Note or Coupon presented to it for payment, the Swiss Principal Paying Agent will endorse thereon a statement indicating the amount and date of such payment.

(i) Payment obligations limited: The obligations of the Issuer to make payments under Condition 5 (Redemption and Purchase) and Condition 6 (Payments) shall constitute an obligation only to account to the Noteholders or Couponholders, as the case may be, on each Interest Payment Date or such other date upon which a payment is due in respect of the Notes or Coupons, for an amount equivalent to sums of principal, interest, Additional Amounts, Tax Indemnity Amounts or other amounts, if any, actually received and retained (net of tax) by or for the account of the Issuer pursuant to the Loan Agreement less any amount in respect of the Reserved Rights.

7. Taxation All payments by, or on behalf of, the Issuer in respect of the Notes and Coupons shall be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatsoever nature (“Taxes”) imposed or levied by the Russian Federation, Ireland or any governmental or political subdivision or territory or possession of any government or any authority thereof or agency therein or thereof having power to tax, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the Issuer shall, subject as provided below, pay such additional amounts as will result in the receipt by the Noteholders and Couponholders of such amounts as would have

206 been received by them if no such withholding or deduction had been made or required to be made. No such additional amounts shall be payable in respect of any Note or Coupon:

(a) held by a holder which is liable for such Taxes in respect of such Note or Coupon by reason of its having some connection with the Russian Federation or Ireland other than the mere holding of such Note or Coupon (including being a citizen or resident or national of, or carrying on a business or maintaining a permanent establishment in, or being physically present in the Russian Federation or Ireland); or

(b) to a holder in respect of Taxes that are imposed or withheld by reason of the failure of the holder to comply with a request of, or on behalf of, the Issuer addressed to the holder to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such holder or to make any declaration or similar claim or satisfy any information or reporting requirement, which is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation, protocol or administrative practice as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such Taxes; or

(c) where the relevant Note or Coupon is presented for payment of principal or interest on redemption more than 30 days after a Relevant Date except to the extent that such additional payment would have been payable if such Note or Coupon had been presented for payment on the last day of such period of 30 days; or

(d) where such withholding or deduction is imposed or levied on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive or any agreement on the taxation of savings income entered into by non-EU-Member States (including Switzerland) with a view to implementing such Directive; or

(e) in respect of a Note or Coupon presented for payment by or on behalf of a holder who would be able to avoid such withholding or deduction by arranging to receive the relevant payment through another Agent in a Member State of the European Union.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Issuer shall only make payments of additional amounts to the Noteholders and Couponholders pursuant to this Condition 7 to the extent and at such time as it shall have actually received and retained (net of tax) an equivalent amount for such purposes from the Borrower under the Loan Agreement, by way of Additional Amounts or Tax Indemnity Amounts or otherwise.

To the extent that the Issuer receives and retains (net of tax) a lesser sum, in respect of an additional amount from the Borrower for the account of the Noteholders or Couponholders, the Issuer shall account to each Noteholder or Couponholder for such additional amount pursuant to this Condition 7 for an additional amount equivalent to a pro rata portion of such additional amount (if any) as is actually received and retained (net of tax) by, or for the account of, the Issuer pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Agreement on the date of, in the currency of, and subject to any conditions attaching to the payment of such additional amount to the Issuer.

In these Conditions, “Relevant Date” means whichever is the later of (a) the date on which the payment in question first becomes due and (b) if the full amount payable has not been received by the Swiss Principal Paying Agent or the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which (the full amount having been so received) notice to that effect has been given to the Noteholders and Couponholders in accordance with Condition 14 (Notices).

Any reference in these Conditions to principal or interest or other amounts shall be deemed to include any additional amounts in respect of principal or interest or other amounts (as the case may be) which may be payable under this Condition 7 or any undertaking given in addition to or in substitution of this Condition 7 pursuant to the Trust Deed or the Loan Agreement.

If the Issuer becomes subject at any time to any taxing jurisdiction other than Ireland, references in these Conditions to Ireland shall be construed as references to Ireland and/or such other jurisdiction.

207 8. Prescription Claims for principal shall be prescribed and become void unless the relevant Notes are presented for payment within ten years of the Relevant Date. Claims for interest will be prescribed and become void unless the relevant Coupons are presented for payment within five years of the Relevant Date.

9. Replacement of Notes and Coupons If any Note or Coupon is lost, stolen, mutilated, defaced or destroyed, it may be replaced, subject to applicable laws and stock exchange requirements, at the offices of the Swiss Principal Paying Agent upon payment by the claimant of the expenses incurred in connection with such replacement and on such terms as to evidence and indemnity as the Issuer may reasonably require. Mutilated or defaced Notes must be surrendered before replacements will be issued.

10. Trustee and Agents Under (i) a separate agreement between the Borrower and the Trustee (the “Trustee Indemnification and Compensation Agreement”) and (ii) a separate agreement among the Borrower and the Agents (the “Agency Indemnification and Compensation Agreement”), each of the Trustee and the Agents is entitled to be indemnified and relieved from responsibility in certain circumstances. The Trustee is also entitled pursuant to the Trustee Indemnification and Compensation Agreement to be paid its costs and expenses in priority to the claims of the Noteholders. In addition, the Trustee is entitled to enter into business transactions with the Issuer, the Borrower and any entity related to the Issuer or the Borrower without accounting for any profit, fees, commissions, interest, discounts or share of brokerage earned, arising or resulting from any such contracts or transactions or trusteeships and the Trustee shall also be at liberty to retain the same for its benefit.

In acting under the Agency Agreement and in connection with the Notes and Coupons, the Agents act solely as agents of the Issuer and (to the extent provided therein) the Trustee and do not assume any obligations towards or relationship of agency or trust for or with any of the Noteholders or Couponholders.

The Trust Deed provides for the Trustee to take action on behalf of the Noteholders in certain circumstances, but only if the Trustee is indemnified and/or secured to its satisfaction. It may not be possible for the Trustee to take certain actions in relation to the Notes or Coupons and, accordingly, in such circumstances the Trustee will be unable to take action, notwithstanding the provision of an indemnity and/or security to it, and it will be for Noteholders and Couponholders to take action directly.

As provided in the Trust Deed, any Trustee for the time being may retire at any time upon giving not less than three months’ notice in writing to the Issuer and the Borrower without assigning any reason therefor and without being responsible for any costs occasioned by such retirement. The retirement of any Trustee shall not become effective unless there remains a trustee (being a trust corporation) in office after such retirement. In the event of a Trustee giving such notice, the Issuer shall use its reasonable endeavours to procure a new trustee to be appointed. The Noteholders shall together have the power, exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution, to remove any trustee or trustees for the time being hereof. The removal of any trustee shall not become effective unless the Borrower has given its prior written consent thereto and there remains a trustee hereof (being a trust corporation) in office after such removal. Notice of any change in the Trustee or any of the Agents shall promptly be given to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14 (Notices).

11. Meetings of Noteholders; Modification and Waiver; Substitution (a) Meetings of Noteholders: The Trust Deed contains provisions for convening meetings of Noteholders to consider matters relating to the Notes, including the modification of any provision of the Loan Agreement or any provision of these Conditions or the Trust Deed. Any such modification may be made if sanctioned by an Extraordinary Resolution (as defined below) or a Written Resolution (as defined below). Such a meeting will be convened on not less than 14 days’ prior written notice by the Trustee, the Borrower or the Issuer or by the Trustee at the request in writing of Noteholders holding not less than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes. The quorum at any

208 meeting convened to vote on an Extraordinary Resolution will be one or more persons present in person holding or representing more than half of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes or, at any adjourned meeting, one or more persons present in person holding Notes in definitive form or voting certificates or being proxies (whatever the principal amount of the Notes so held or represented); provided however, that certain proposals (including but not limited to any proposal to alter the terms and conditions relating to the maturity, redemption and repayment of the Notes, to change any date fixed for payment of principal or interest in respect of the Notes, to reduce the amount of principal or interest payable on any date in respect of the Notes, to alter the method of calculating the amount of any payment in respect of the Notes or the date for any such payment, to change the currency of payments under the Notes, to change any date fixed for payment of principal or interest under the Loan Agreement to reduce the amount of principal or interest payable under the Loan Agreement to alter the method of calculating the amount of any payment under the Loan Agreement to change the currency of payment under the Loan Agreement to change the quorum requirements relating to meetings or the majority required to pass an Extraordinary Resolution, to alter the governing law of the Conditions, the Trust Deed, or the Loan Agreement or to change the Events of Default under the Loan Agreement (each, a “Reserved Matter”)) may only be sanctioned by an Extraordinary Resolution passed at a meeting of Noteholders at which one or more persons present holding or representing not less than three-quarters or, at any adjourned meeting, one-quarter of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes form a quorum. Any Extraordinary Resolution duly passed at any such meeting shall be binding on all the Noteholders and Couponholders whether present or not.

In addition, a resolution in writing (a “Written Resolution”) signed by or on behalf of the holders of not less than 90 per cent. in principal amount of all Notes outstanding who for the time being are entitled to receive notice of a meeting of Noteholders under the Trust Deed will take effect as if it were an Extraordinary Resolution. Such a Written Resolution may be contained in one document or several documents in the same form, each signed by or on behalf of one or more Noteholders.

Neither the Borrower nor any subsidiary of the Borrower nor any holding company of the Borrower nor any subsidiary of any such holding company who is or are also Noteholders shall be allowed to vote at a meeting or be included in a quorum.

The expression “Extraordinary Resolution” means a resolution passed at a meeting of the Noteholders duly convened and held by a majority consisting of more than 50 per cent. of the persons voting thereat upon a show of hands or if a poll is duly demanded by a majority consisting of more than 50 per cent. of the votes cast on such poll.

(b) Modification and waiver: The Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders or Couponholders but with the consent of the Borrower, agree to any modification of these Conditions, the Trust Deed or, pursuant to the Loan Administration Transfer, the Loan Agreement (other than in respect of a Reserved Matter) which is, in the opinion of the Trustee, proper to make if, in the opinion of the Trustee, such modification will not be materially prejudicial to the interests of Noteholders or which is of a formal, minor or technical nature or is to correct a manifest error.

In addition, the Trustee may, without the consent of the Noteholders, and without prejudice to its rights in respect of any subsequent or other breach, condition, event or act, in writing and on such terms and conditions (if any) as shall seem expedient to it, authorise or waive any breach or proposed breach of the Notes or the Trust Deed by the Issuer or, pursuant to the Loan Administration Transfer, the Loan Agreement by the Borrower or determine that any event which would or might otherwise give rise to a right of acceleration under the Loan Agreement shall not be treated as such (other than a proposed breach or breach relating to a Reserved Matter) if, in the opinion of the Trustee, the interests of the Noteholders will not be materially prejudiced thereby.

Any such amendments, modification, authorisation or waiver made with the consent of the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Deed shall be binding on the Noteholders and, unless the Trustee agrees otherwise, any such authorisation, waiver or modification shall be notified to the Noteholders and Couponholders in accordance with Condition 14 (Notices) as soon as practicable thereafter.

209 (c) Substitution: The Trust Deed contains provisions under which the Issuer may, without the consent of the Noteholders or Couponholders, but with the prior written consent of the Borrower, transfer the obligations of the Issuer as principal debtor under the Trust Deed and the Notes to a third party provided that certain conditions specified in the Trust Deed are fulfilled. So long as any of the Notes are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, in the event of such substitution, the SIX Swiss Exchange will be informed of such substitution and such substitution shall be notified to the Noteholders as soon as practicable thereafter and in accordance with Condition 14 (Notices).

12. Enforcement At any time after an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or Relevant Event (as defined in the Trust Deed) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may, in accordance with applicable laws, at its discretion and without notice, institute such proceedings as it thinks fit to enforce the rights of the Noteholders under the Trust Deed in respect of the Notes and Coupons, but it shall not be bound to do so unless:

(a) it has been so requested in writing by the holders of at least one-quarter in principal amount of the outstanding Notes or has been so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution or a Written Resolution; and

(b) it has been indemnified and/or provided with security to its satisfaction against all liabilities, proceedings, actions, claims and demands to which it may thereby become liable and all costs, charges and expenses which may be incurred by it in connection therewith.

No Noteholder or Couponholder may proceed directly against the Issuer unless the Trustee, having become bound to do so, fails to do so within a reasonable time and such failure is continuing, provided that any judgment or amount obtained as a result of such action or exercise of rights must be entered or held or, as the case may be, registered in the name of the Trustee and shall be held or dealt with by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with the Trust Deed.

The Trust Deed also provides that, in the case of an Event of Default or a Relevant Event, the Trustee may, and shall if requested to do so in writing by Noteholders holding at least one-quarter in principal amount of the Notes outstanding or if directed to do so by an Extraordinary Resolution or a Written Resolution and, in either case, subject to it being secured and/or indemnified to its satisfaction, (1) require the Issuer to declare all amounts payable under the Loan Agreement by the Borrower to be due and payable (in the case of an Event of Default) or (2) enforce the security created in the Trust Deed in favour of the Noteholders (in the case of a Relevant Event). Upon repayment of the Loan following an Event of Default, the Notes will be redeemed or repaid at the principal amount thereof together with interest accrued but unpaid up to the date fixed for redemption together with any additional amounts due in respect thereof pursuant to Condition 7 (Taxation) and thereupon shall cease to be outstanding.

For the purposes of these Conditions, “Relevant Event” means any of the following events pertaining to the Issuer: (i) the failure by the Issuer to make any payment of principal or interest on the Notes on the due date for payment thereof; (ii) pre-insolvency composition, moratorium, controlled management, suspension of payments, general settlement with creditors, liquidation, reorganization, examinership, administration, dissolution and any other similar legal proceedings affecting the Issuer or any similar officer is appointed as a consequence of the financial difficulties affecting the Issuer; or (iii) the taking of any action in furtherance of dissolution of the Issuer.

13. Further Issues The Issuer may from time to time, with the consent of the Borrower, but without the consent of the Noteholders or Couponholders and in accordance with the Trust Deed, create and issue further notes having the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects (or in all respects except for the amount, the issue date and/or the date of the first payment of interest on such further notes) and so that such further issue is consolidated and forms a single series with the Notes. Such further Notes will be constituted by a deed supplemental to the Trust Deed. In relation to such further issue, the Issuer will enter into a loan agreement

210 supplemental to the Loan Agreement with the Borrower on the same terms as the original Loan Agreement (or in all respects except for the amount, the issue date and/or the date of the first payment of interest) subject to any modifications which, in the sole opinion of the Trustee, would not materially prejudice the interests of the Noteholders subject to any modifications which, in the sole opinion of the Trustee, only relate to Reserved Rights and would not materially prejudice the interests of Noteholders. The Issuer will provide a further fixed charge and absolute assignment in favour of the Trustee of its rights under such supplemental loan agreement equivalent to the rights charged and assigned as security in relation to the Issuer’s rights under the original Loan Agreement which will, together with the security referred to in the Conditions, secure both the Notes and such further Notes. The purpose of the creation and issue of further notes shall be to finance and increase the principal amount of the Loan or a further loan to the Borrower.

14. Notices So long as the Notes are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and so long as the rules of the SIX Swiss Exchange so require, all notices in respect of the Notes will be validly given through BNP Paribas (Suisse) SA by means of electronic publication on the following internet website of the SIX Swiss Exchange: www.six-exchange-regulation.com/publications/communiques/official_notices_en.html.

Couponholders shall be deemed for all purposes to have notice of the contents of any notice given to the Noteholders.

In case by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to publish any notice to Noteholders as provided above, then such notification to such Noteholders as shall be given with the prior written approval of the Trustee shall constitute sufficient notice to such Noteholders for every purpose hereunder.

15. Governing Law and Jurisdiction (a) Governing law: The Trust Deed, the Agency Agreement, the Notes, the Loan Agreement, and all other agreements entered into in connection therewith, including any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them, are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English law.

(b) Jurisdiction: The Issuer has in the Trust Deed (i) submitted irrevocably to the non exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England for the purposes of hearing any determination and suit, action or proceedings or settling any disputes arising out of or in connection with the Trust Deed and the Notes; (ii) waived any objection which it might have to such courts being nominated as the forum to hear and determine any such suit, action or proceedings or to settle any such disputes and agreed not to claim that any such court is not a convenient or appropriate forum; (iii) designated a person in England to accept service of any process on its behalf; and (iv) consented to the enforcement of any judgment.

16. Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 No person shall have any right to enforce any term or condition of the Notes under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999, but this does not affect any right or remedy of any person which exists or is available apart from that Act.

211 SUMMARY OF THE PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE NOTES IN GLOBAL FORM

The following is a summary of the provisions to be contained in the Trust Deed to constitute the Notes and in the Permanent Global Note, which will apply to, and in some cases modify, the Terms and Conditions of the Notes while the Notes are represented by the Permanent Global Note.

1. Exchange and Notices The Notes which will be offered and sold in reliance on Regulations S and which will be sold to non-U.S. persons outside the United States, will initially be represented by a Permanent Global Note in bearer form, without coupons, which will be deposited with SIS. Prior to expiry of the distribution compliance period (as defined in Regulation S), beneficial interests in the Permanent Global Note may not be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. person save as otherwise provided pursuant to an available exemption from U.S. securities laws and may not be held otherwise than through SIS and the Permanent Global Note will bear a legend regarding such restrictions on transfer.

The Permanent Global Note will be exchangeable in whole but not in part (free of charge to the holder) for definitive Notes if the Swiss Principal Paying Agent determines that:

• SIS is closed for a continuous period of 14 days (other than by reason of holiday, statutory or otherwise) or announces an intention permanently to cease business or does in fact do so and no alternative clearing system satisfactory to the Trustee is available; or

• the printing of definitive Notes is necessary; or

• under Swiss or applicable foreign laws, the enforcement of obligations under the Notes can only be ensured by means of effective bearer definitive Notes, by, in each case, the Swiss Principal Paying Agent giving notice to the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders (as defined below) of its intention to exchange the Permanent Global Note for definitive Notes on or after the Exchange Date (as defined below). Neither the Issuer nor the Noteholders shall at any time have the right to effect or demand the conversion of the Permanent Global Note into, or the delivery of, uncertificated securities (Wertrechte) or definitive Notes (Wertpapiere) and Coupons. In all cases the Issuer shall procure the delivery of the definitive Notes outside of the United States. So long as the Notes are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and its rules so require, notices will be published by means of electronic publication on the internet website of the SIX Swiss Exchange or otherwise in accordance with the regulations of the SIX Swiss Exchange.

For these purposes, “Exchange Date” means a day specified in the notice requiring exchange falling not less than 60 days after that on which such notice is given and on which banks are open for business in the place in which the specified office of the Swiss Principal Paying Agent is located.

2. Payments Payments of principal, interest and any other amount in respect of the Permanent Global Note will be made to SIS as holder of the Permanent Global Note. None of the Issuer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Bank will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments or deliveries made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Permanent Global Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. Interest payments in respect of the Notes cannot be collected without certification of non-U.S. beneficial ownership.

3. Noteholders Each Holder (as defined below) shall have a quotal co-ownership interest (Miteigentumsanteil) in the Permanent Global Note to the extent of its claim against the Issuer, provided that for so long as the Permanent Global Note remains deposited with the Intermediary, the co-ownership interest shall be

212 suspended and the Notes may only be transferred by the entry of the transferred Notes in a securities account of the transferee.

The records of the Intermediary will determine the number of Notes held through each participant in that Intermediary. In respect of the Notes held in the form of Intermediated Securities, the holders of the Notes (the “Holders”) will be the persons holding the Notes in a securities account (Effektenkonto) which is in their name, or in the case of intermediaries (Verwahrungsstellen) holding the Notes for their own account in a securities account (Effektenkonto) which is in their name.

4. Prescription Claims against the Issuer in respect of principal and interest on the Notes represented by the Permanent Global Note will be prescribed after 10 years (in the case of principal) and 5 years (in the case of interest) from the Relevant Date (as defined in Condition 7 (Taxation)).

5. Cancellation Cancellation of any Note represented by the Permanent Global Note and required by the Terms and Conditions of the Notes to be cancelled following its redemption or purchase will be effected by endorsement by or on behalf of the Swiss Principal Paying Agent of the reduction in the principal amount of the Permanent Global Note on the relevant part of the schedule thereto.

6. Publication So long as the Notes are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and the rules of the SIX Swiss Exchange so require, all notices in respect of the Notes, the Issuer and/or the Bank (to the extent relevant to the Notes) will be validly given through BNP Paribas (Suisse) SA by means of electronic publication on the following internet website of the SIX Swiss Exchange: www.six-exchange-regulation.com/publications/communiques/official_notices_en.html

7. Legends The following legend, substantially to the following effect, will appear on all Notes and on all receipts and all coupons relating to such Notes to reflect TEFRA D selling restrictions:

“ANY UNITED STATES PERSON WHO HOLDS THIS OBLIGATION WILL BE SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS UNDER THE UNITED STATES INCOME TAX LAWS, INCLUDING THE LIMITATIONS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 165(j) AND 1287(a) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.”

The sections referred to above provide that U.S. Noteholders, with certain exceptions, will not be entitled to deduct any loss on Notes, receipts or coupons and will not be entitled to capital gains treatment of any gain on any sale, disposition, redemption or payment of principal or interest in respect of Notes.

213 TAXATION

The following is a general description of certain tax laws relating to the Notes and interest on the Loan and does not purport to be a comprehensive discussion of the tax treatment of the Notes and interest on the Loan. Prospective investors in the Notes should consult their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes in light of their particular circumstances, including but not limited to the consequences of receipt of interest and sale or redemption of the Notes.

The Russian Federation Taxation of the Notes General The following is a summary of certain Russian tax considerations relevant to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes as well as taxation of payments of interest on the Loan. The summary is based on the laws of Russia in effect on the date of this Prospectus. The summary does not seek to address the applicability of, and procedures in relation to, taxes levied by regions, municipalities or other non-federal authorities of the Russian Federation. Nor does the summary seek to address the availability of double tax treaty relief in respect of the Notes, and it should be noted that there may be practical difficulties involved in claiming double tax treaty relief. Prospective investors should consult their own advisors regarding the tax consequences of investing in the Notes. No representation with respect to Russian tax consequences to any particular Noteholder is made hereby.

Many aspects of Russian tax law are subject to significant uncertainty. Further, the substantive provisions of Russian tax law applicable to financial instruments as well as the relative practice of Russian authorities may be subject to more rapid and unpredictable change and inconsistency than in jurisdictions with more developed capital markets and tax systems.

For the purposes of this summary, a non-resident Noteholder means:

• an individual Noteholder that is not considered a Russian tax resident under Russian law when they earn income from the Notes. By inference this means an individual not actually present in the Russian Federation for an aggregate period of 183 days or more (including days of arrival into the Russian Federation and days of departure from the Russian Federation) in any period comprising 12 consecutive months. Presence in the Russian Federation for tax residency purposes is not considered interrupted if an individual departs for short periods (less than six months) for medical treatment or education; or

• a legal entity or organisation, in each case not organised under Russian law, that purchases, holds and disposes of the Notes otherwise than through a permanent establishment in Russia.

A resident Noteholder means any Noteholder (including any individual and any legal entity or organisation) not qualifying as a non-resident Noteholder.

The residency rules may be affected by an applicable double tax treaty. It is anticipated that the Russian tax residency rules applicable to legal entities or organisations may change in the future.

The Russian tax treatment of interest payments made by Bank of Moscow to the Issuer under the Loan Agreement may affect the Noteholders. See “Taxation of Interest on the Loan” below.

Non-Resident Noteholders A non-resident Noteholder that is a legal entity or corporate body should not be subject to Russian withholding tax on any gain on sale or other disposition of the Notes even if payment is received from a source within the Russian Federation, although there is some residual uncertainty regarding the treatment of any part of such gain which is attributable to accrued interest on the Notes. If the payment upon sale or other disposal of the Notes is received from a Russian source, accrued interest may be distinguished from the total gain and taxed at a rate of 20 per cent. The separate taxation of the interest accrued may create a tax liability in relation to interest even in a situation of a capital loss on the disposal of the Notes. Withholding tax on

214 interest may be reduced or eliminated in accordance with the provisions of an applicable double tax treaty. However, there is no assurance that advance treaty relief would be granted and obtaining a refund can be difficult, if not impossible. Non-resident holders that are commercial and governmental entities should consult their own tax advisors with respect to this possibility.

If proceeds from a disposal of Notes are received from a source within Russia by a non-resident Noteholder who is an individual, the gain on such disposal will generally be subject to tax at a rate of 30 per cent., (the gain generally being calculated as the gross proceeds from such disposal less any available cost deduction (which includes the purchase price of the Notes)), subject to any available double taxation treaty relief. In this regard, if Notes are disposed of within Russia, the gains on such disposition are to be regarded as received for personal income tax purposes as income from a Russian source. The tax should be withheld at source if the disposal proceeds are paid by a broker or a trust manager that is a Russian legal entity or organization, or any other person, who carries out operations under an agency agreement, a commission agreement or another similar agreement in favour of the non-resident Noteholder who is an individual, or, if the tax is not withheld, then the non-resident Noteholder who is an individual should file a tax return and pay tax in Russia.

There is some uncertainty regarding treatment of the portion of proceeds (if any) attributable to accrued interest received by the non-resident Noteholder who is an individual. Proceeds attributable to accrued interest may be taxed at a rate of 30 per cent., irrespective of any capital gain or loss on the disposal of the Notes. In addition, there is a risk that the taxable base may be affected by changes in the exchange rates between the currency of acquisition of the Notes, the currency of sale of the Notes and Russian Roubles.

Non-resident Noteholders who are individuals should consult their own advisers with respect to the tax consequences of the receipt of proceeds from a source within Russia in respect of a disposition of the Notes.

Tax Treaty Relief Where proceeds from the disposition of Notes are received from a Russian source, in order to enjoy the benefits of an applicable double tax treaty, the non-resident Noteholder, whether an individual, legal entity or organisation, must comply with the certification, information and reporting requirements in force in the Russian Federation.

Currently, a non-resident Noteholder that is a legal entity or organisation would need to provide the payer of income with a certificate of tax residence issued by the competent authority of the relevant treaty country. This certificate should be legalised or apostilled by a respective competent authority. The Russian translation of the certificate should be provided. The tax residency confirmation needs to be renewed on an annual basis, and provided to the payer of income before the first payment of income in each calendar year.

A non-resident Noteholder who is an individual must provide to the tax authorities with a certificate of tax residence issued by the competent authority of the relevant treaty country and appropriate documentary proof of income received and the tax payment made outside the Russian Federation on income with respect to which the treaty benefits are claimed. This documentary proof must be confirmed by the tax authority of the relevant treaty country Because of uncertainties regarding the form and the procedures for providing such documentary proof, individuals in practice may not be able to obtain advance treaty relief on the receipt of proceeds from a source within the Russian Federation and obtaining a refund of the taxes withheld can be extremely difficult and time-consuming, if not impossible.

Refund of Tax Withheld Where double tax treaty relief is available but Russian income tax has nevertheless been withheld at source by the payer of the proceeds, an application for the refund of the taxes withheld may be filed within three years from the end of the tax period in which the tax was withheld for non-resident Noteholders which are legal entities or organisations, and within one year after the year to which the treaty benefit relates for non-resident Noteholders who are individuals.

To process a claim for a refund, a non-resident Noteholder that is a legal organisation should provide to the Russian tax authorities: (1) an apostilled or legalised confirmation of the foreign tax residency of the

215 non-resident Noteholder at the time the income was paid, as required by an applicable tax treaty; (2) an application for a refund of the tax withheld; and (3) copies of the relevant contracts or other documents based on which the income was paid, as well as payment documents confirming the payment of the tax that was paid to the Russian budget system on the relevant account of the Federal Treasury (Form 1012DT for dividends and interest and 1011DT for other income are intended to combine (1) and (2) for foreign legal entities and organisations).

Non-resident Noteholders who are individuals should present to the tax authorities a tax residency certificate issued by the competent authorities in their country of residence for tax purposes and a document issued or approved by the tax authorities in the country in which they are resident for tax purposes, confirming the amount of income received and taxed in that country and amount of the tax paid in respect of this income. The Russian tax authorities may require a Russian translation of some documents. Procedures for processing such claims have not been clearly established and there is significant uncertainty regarding the availability and timing of such refunds.

Resident Noteholders A resident Noteholder is subject to all applicable Russian taxes in respect of gains from a disposal of the Notes and interest received on the Notes. Resident Noteholders should consult their own tax advisers with respect to their tax position regarding the Notes.

Taxation of Interest on the Loan The Russian tax treatment of interest payments made by the Bank to the Issuer under the Loan Agreement may affect the Noteholders.

In general, payments of interest on borrowed funds by a Russian entity to a non-resident legal entity are subject to Russian withholding tax at a rate of 20 per cent. subject to reduction or elimination pursuant to the terms of an applicable double tax treaty. Based on professional advice the Bank has received, it believes that payments of interest on the Loan should not be subject to withholding tax under the terms of the double tax treaty between the Russian Federation and Ireland. However, there can be no assurance that such relief will be obtained. Preliminary approval from the Russian tax authorities for the purposes of obtaining treaty relief from Russian withholding tax is neither required nor possible. However, the Russian tax authorities may subsequently scrutinise the Issuer’s eligibility for treaty relief during tax audits in respect of each payment under the Loan Agreement.

The Issuer has granted security by way of charge in favor of the Trustee over certain of its rights and interests as lender under the Loan Agreement (other than any rights over and benefits constituting Reserved Rights as defined in the Trust Deed) as security for the Issuer’s payment obligations in respect of the Notes and under the Trust Deed and has assigned absolutely certain administrative rights under the Loan Agreement. Upon any enforcement by the Trustee of the security granted to it by the Issuer by way of the security interests in the Trust Deed, payments under the Loan Agreement (other than in respect of Reserved Rights) would be required to be made to, or to the order of, the Trustee. Under Russian tax law, payments of interest and other payments made by the Bank to the Trustee will in general be subject to Russian income tax withholding at a rate of 20 per cent. It is not expected that the Trustee will, or will be able to, claim a withholding tax exemption under any double tax treaty. It may be impossible for Noteholders to claim a refund of such tax withheld.

If payments under the Loan are subject to any withholding tax (as a result of which the Issuer would reduce the payments under the corresponding series of Notes by the amount of such withholding),, the Bank will be obliged (except in limited circumstances) to increase the amounts payable as may be necessary to ensure that the Issuer receives a net amount that will not be less than the amount it would have received in the absence of such withholding. As provided in the Irish taxation section below, payments in respect of the Notes will be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of Irish taxes save as required by law. In that event, the Issuer will be required to pay Additional Amounts and/or Tax Indemnity Amounts (as each such term is defined in the Loan Agreement) and other amounts only to the extent that the Issuer receives corresponding amounts from the Bank under the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement provides for the

216 Bank to pay such corresponding additional amounts in these circumstances. There is some doubt as to whether the gross-up provisions contained in the Loan Agreement are valid and enforceable under Russian law. Due to the limited recourse nature of the Notes, if the Bank were to fail to pay any such gross-up amounts (e.g., by reason of such gross-up amounts payable to the Issuer under the Loan Agreement being held to be invalid under Russian law), the amounts payable by the Issuer under the Notes would be correspondingly reduced. Also, subject to certain conditions (including the consent of the CBR), the Bank may repay the Loan in full, in which case all outstanding Notes would be redeemable at par with accrued interest.

VAT is not applied to interest and principal payments under the Loan, since rendering of financial services involving the provision of the Loan in monetary form is not subject to Russian VAT.

Ireland

Introduction The following is a summary of the principal Irish tax consequences for individuals and companies of ownership of the Notes based on the laws and practice of the Irish Revenue Commissioners currently in force in Ireland and may be subject to change. It deals with Noteholders who beneficially own their Notes thereon as an investment. Particular rules not discussed below may apply to certain classes of taxpayers holding Notes, such as dealers in securities, trusts etc. The summary does not constitute tax or legal advice and the comments below are of a general nature only. Prospective investors in the Notes should consult their professional advisers on the tax implications of the purchase, holding, redemption or sale of the Notes and the receipt of interest thereon under the laws of their country of residence, citizenship or domicile.

TAXATION OF NOTEHOLDERS

Withholding Tax In general, tax at the standard rate of income tax (currently 20 per cent.), is required to be withheld from payments of Irish source interest which should include interest payable on the Notes. The Issuer will not be obliged to make a withholding or deduction for or on account of Irish income tax from a payment of interest on a Note where certain exemptions apply, in particular, so long as the interest paid on the relevant Note falls within one of the following categories:

(a) Interest Paid on a Quoted Eurobond: A quoted Eurobond is a security which is issued by a company (such as the Issuer), is listed on a recognised stock exchange (such as the Irish or Luxembourg Stock Exchanges) and carries a right to interest. Provided that the Notes are interest bearing and are listed on a recognised stock exchange, interest paid on them can be paid free of withholding tax provided:

(i) the person by or through whom the payment is made is not in Ireland; or

(ii) the payment is made by or through a person in Ireland and either:

(A) the Note is held in a clearing system recognised by the Irish Revenue Commissioners; (Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg are, amongst others, so recognised but SIS is not so recognised); or

(B) the person who is the beneficial owner of the quoted Eurobond and who is beneficially entitled to the interest is not resident in Ireland and has made a declaration to a relevant person (such as a paying agent located in Ireland) in the prescribed form.

Thus, so long as the Notes continue to be quoted on a recognised stock exchange, interest on the Notes may be paid without any withholding or deduction for or on account of Irish income tax provided such payment is made through a Paying Agent outside Ireland.

The Irish Revenue has not produced a list of which stock exchanges will be regarded as recognized stock exchanges for the purposes of the quoted Eurobond exemption from interest withholding tax.

217 The Irish Revenue will not confirm or deny that any particular stock exchanges (other than London, Luxembourg and Dublin) are recognised for this purpose. Irish stamp duty legislation contains a practice on the meaning of recognised stock exchange that the Irish Revenue confirms applies to the quoted Eurobond exemption. This practice states that a recognised stock exchange is any stock exchange operating in another country which:

(i) is recognised by the appropriate regulatory authorities in that other country; and

(ii) has substantially the same level of regulations in that country as the Irish stock exchange has in Ireland.

It is understood that the Irish Revenue does not assert that the SIX Swiss Exchange is not a recognised stock exchange. No assurance can be given however that the SIX Swiss Exchange is a recognised stock exchange given that it would be necessary to undertake a full legal comparison of the regulatory regimes applicable in Switzerland and in Ireland.

(b) Interest paid to a person resident in a relevant territory: If, for any reason, the Quoted Eurobond exemption referred to above ceases to apply, interest payments may still be made free of withholding tax provided that:

(i) the Issuer remains a “qualifying company” as defined in section 110 of the TCA and the Noteholder is a person which is resident in a relevant territory at the time of the payment. A relevant territory is a Member State of the European Union (other than Ireland) or a country with which Ireland has a double taxation agreement in force by virtue of section 826 (1) of the Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997 (“TCA”) or that is signed and which will come into force once all ratification procedures set out in section 826 (1) TCA have been completed (“Relevant Territory”), or

(ii) the interest is paid in the ordinary course of the Issuer’s business and the Noteholder is a company which is either (A) resident in a Relevant Territory which imposes a tax that generally applies to interest receivable in that Relevant Territory by companies from sources outside that Relevant Territory or (B) in respect of the interest, exempted from the charge to Irish income tax under the terms of a double tax agreement which is either in force or which will come into force once all ratification procedures have been completed,

and the recipient is not a company which receives the interest in connection with a trade or business carried on by it through a branch or agency in Ireland.

The Issuer must be satisfied that the respective terms of the exemptions are satisfied. The test of residence in each case is determined by reference to the law of the Relevant Territory in which the Noteholder claims to be resident. For other holders of Notes, interest may be paid free of withholding tax if the Noteholder is resident in a double tax treaty country and under the provisions of the relevant treaty with Ireland such Noteholder is exempt from Irish tax on the interest and clearance in the prescribed form has been received by the Issuer before the interest is paid.

Encashment Tax Irish tax will be required to be withheld at the standard rate of income tax (currently 20 per cent.) from interest on any Note, where such interest is collected or realised by a bank or encashment agent in Ireland on behalf of any Noteholder. There is an exemption from encashment tax where the beneficial owner of the interest is not resident in Ireland and has made a declaration to this effect in the prescribed form to the encashment agent or bank.

Income Tax and Levies Notwithstanding that a Noteholder may receive interest on the Notes free of withholding tax, the Noteholder may still be liable to pay Irish tax with respect to such interest. Noteholders resident or ordinarily resident

218 in Ireland who are individuals may be liable to pay Irish income tax, social insurance (PRSI) contributions, the health levy and the income levy in respect of interest they receive on the Notes.

Interest paid on the Notes may have an Irish source and therefore may be within the charge to Irish income tax. In the case of Noteholders who are non-resident individuals such Noteholders may also be liable to pay the health levy and the income levy in respect of interest they receive on the Notes.

Ireland operates a self-assessment system in respect of tax and any person, including a person who is neither resident nor ordinarily resident in Ireland, with Irish source income comes within its scope.

There are a number of exemptions from Irish income tax available to certain non-residents. Firstly, interest payments made by the Issuer are exempt from income tax so long as the Issuer is a qualifying company for the purposes of section 110 of the TCA, the recipient is not resident in Ireland and is resident in a Relevant Territory and, the interest is paid out of the assets of the Issuer. Secondly, interest payments made by the Issuer in the ordinary course of its business are exempt from income tax provided the recipient is not resident in Ireland and is a company which is either resident in a Relevant Territory which imposes a tax that generally applies to interest receivable in that Relevant Territory by companies from sources outside that Relevant Territory or, in respect of the interest is exempted from the charge to Irish income tax under the terms of a double tax agreement which is either in force or which will come into force once all ratification procedures have been completed.) Thirdly, interest paid by the Issuer free of withholding tax under the quoted Eurobond exemption is exempt from income tax, where the recipient is a person not resident in Ireland and resident in a Relevant Territory. For these purposes, residence is determined under the terms of the relevant double taxation agreement or in any other case, the law of the country in which the recipient claims to be resident. Interest falling within the above exemptions is also exempt from the health levy and the income levy.

Notwithstanding these exemptions from income tax, a corporate recipient that carries on a trade in Ireland through a branch or agency in respect of which the Notes are held or attributed, may have a liability to Irish corporation tax on the interest.

Relief from Irish income tax may also be available under the specific provisions of a double tax treaty between Ireland and the country of residence of the recipient.

Interest on the Notes which does not fall within the above exemptions is within the charge to income tax, and, in the case of Noteholders who are individuals, the charge to the health levy and the income levy. In the past the Irish Revenue Commissioners have not pursued liability to tax in respect of persons who are not regarded as being resident in Ireland except where such persons have a taxable presence of some sort in Ireland or seek to claim any relief or repayment in respect of Irish tax. However, there can be no assurance that the Irish Revenue Commissioners will apply this treatment in the case of any Noteholder.

Capital Gains Tax A holder of Notes will not be subject to Irish tax on capital gains on a disposal of Notes unless such holder is either resident or ordinarily resident in Ireland or carries on a trade or business in Ireland through a branch or agency in respect of which the Notes were used or held.

Capital Acquisitions Tax A gift or inheritance comprising of Notes will be within the charge to capital acquisitions tax (which subject to available exemptions and reliefs, will be levied at 25 per cent. if either (i) the disponer or the donee/successor in relation to the gift or inheritance is resident or ordinarily resident in Ireland (or, in certain circumstances, if the disponer is domiciled in Ireland irrespective of his residence or that of the donee/successor) on the relevant date or (ii) if the Notes are regarded as property situate in Ireland (i.e. if the Notes are physically located in Ireland or if the register of the Notes is maintained in Ireland).

219 Stamp Duty No stamp duty or similar tax is imposed in Ireland (on the basis of an exemption provided for in Section 85(2)(c) to the Irish Stamp Duties Consolidation Act, 1999 assuming the proceeds of the Notes are used in the course of the Issuer’s business), on the issue, transfer or redemption of the Notes.

EU Directive on the Taxation of Savings Income The Council of the European Union has adopted a directive regarding the taxation of interest income known as the “European Union Directive on the Taxation of Savings Income (Directive 2003/48/EC)”. Ireland has implemented the directive into national law. Accordingly, any Irish paying agent making an interest payment on behalf of the Issuer to an individual or certain residual entities resident in another Member State of the European Union or certain associated and dependent territories of a Member State will have to provide details of the payment and certain details relating to the Noteholder (including the Noteholder’s name and address) to the Irish Revenue Commissioners who in turn will provide such information to the competent authorities of the state or territory of residence of the individual or residual entity concerned.

The Issuer, or certain other persons shall be entitled to require Noteholders to provide any information regarding their tax status, identity or residency in order to satisfy the disclosure requirements in Directive 2003/48/EC and Noteholders will be deemed by their subscription for Notes to have authorised the automatic disclosure of such information by the Issuer, or any other person to the relevant tax authorities.

220 SUBSCRIPTION AND SALE

BNP Paribas (Suisse) SA and UBS AG (the “Joint Lead Managers”) have agreed, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of an agreement dated 8 September 2010 (the “Subscription Agreement”) by and among the Issuer, the Joint Lead Managers and the Bank as borrower, to subscribe and pay for the Notes at the issue price of 100 per cent. of the principal amount of the Notes. The Joint Lead Managers are entitled to be released and discharged from their obligations under the Subscription Agreement in certain circumstances prior to the closing of the issue of the Notes.

The Subscription Agreement provides that the obligations of the Joint Lead Managers to purchase the Notes are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. In connection with this offering, the Issuer has agreed to pay a combined management, underwriting and selling commission to the Joint Lead Managers and to reimburse certain of their expenses related to this offering. Such payment by the Issuer will be funded by the payment by the Bank to the Issuer of a fee of a corresponding amount under the Loan Agreement. The Bank and the Issuer have each agreed to severally indemnify the Joint Lead Managers against certain liabilities incurred in connection with the issue of the Notes.

The Bank has agreed that during a period of one month from the date of the Subscription Agreement, it will not, without the prior written consent of the Joint Lead Managers, directly or indirectly, issue, sell, offer or agree to sell, grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of, any debt securities of the Bank which are substantially similar to the Notes (including, without limitation, direct issues of debt securities by the Bank or by any other company and guaranteed by the Bank) or that are convertible into, or exchangeable for, the Notes or such other debt securities and, in each case, which are (a) denominated in a currency other than Russian roubles, (b) are listed, quoted or traded on any stock exchange or traded in any securities market, and (c) were initially offered and distributed outside the Russian Federation.

The Issuer is not registered under the Investment Company Act and therefore investors will not be afforded the protections of the Investment Company Act.

Each of the Joint Lead Managers has represented to the Issuer and the Bank that it has offered or sold the Notes, and agrees that it will offer and sell the Notes (i) as part of its distribution at any time and (ii) otherwise until 40 days after completion of the distribution of the Notes, as determined and certified to the Swiss Principal Paying Agent by each Joint Lead Manager as to the Notes sold by or through it, in which case the Swiss Principal Paying Agent shall notify each Joint Lead Manager when all relevant Joint Lead Managers so certified, only in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S. Accordingly, neither it, its affiliates nor any persons acting on its or their behalf have engaged or will engage in any “directed selling efforts” with respect to the Notes and it and they have complied with and will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S. Each Joint Lead Manager has agreed that, at or prior to confirmation of sale of the Notes, it will have sent to each distributor, dealer or person receiving a selling concession, fee or other remuneration that purchases Notes from it during the distribution compliance period a confirmation or notice to substantially the following effect:

“The securities covered hereby have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of their distribution at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after completion of the distribution of the Notes as determined and certified to the Swiss Principal Paying Agent by the relevant Joint Lead Manager as to the Notes sold by or through it, in which case the Swiss Principal Paying Agent shall notify each such relevant Joint Lead Manager when all such relevant Joint Lead Managers have so

OVERVIEW OF THE BANKING SECTOR AND BANKING REGULATION IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

Infrastructure The current institutional framework of the Russian banking sector consists of the CBR, Russian credit organisations and branches and representative offices of foreign credit organisations.

History and development of the Russian banking sector Under the Soviet regime, Gosbank allocated resources from the government’s budget according to the prevailing economic plan and the state-owned Sberbank of the USSR offered retail banking services. In 1987, with the liberalisation of government controls over companies and interbank settlements, a small group of dependent specialised banks developed to attract savings deposits and finance foreign trade, construction, industry, agriculture and small enterprises.

During the second phase of reform from 1988 to 1989, many regional commercial banks emerged (primarily in the form of co-operatives or joint stock companies). Immediately prior to the collapse of the Soviet Union in December 1991, the CBR assumed all of Gosbank’s functions and the government liquidated Gosbank. In 1991, three of the specialised state banks transformed into joint stock companies. Some regional branches of the banks became independent from head offices through management buy-outs.

Until the mid-1990s, the number of commercial banks in the Russian Federation was increasing (from approximately 358 in 1990 to 2,538 in 1996). Very few of these entities enjoyed sufficient economies of scale to be viable as stand alone entities and most were dependent on support from their shareholders. The reluctance of Russian corporations to outsource their banking services was, and continues to be, one of the reasons for the industry’s fragmented nature. Many Russian banks remain poorly managed, with inadequate or non-existent risk management systems. Corporate governance in the sector is weak, with creditor abuse still rife. Financial disclosure is poor and ownership structures lack transparency.

The weakness of the Russian banking system was exposed in 1998 during the Russian financial market crisis brought about by the Russian Government’s default on much of its short-term domestic debt.

Many banks went bankrupt or were placed under the administration of the ARCO, a state corporation established in 1999 to restructure defaulting banks and protect their creditors. During 2002, some banks underwent administration by ARCO and completed the financial restructuring process, while other defaulting banks were liquidated. Following the stabilisation of the banking sector, ARCO’s role has decreased substantially. Pursuant to Federal Law No. 87-FZ of 28 July 2004, ARCO was liquidated.

During the period from April to July 2004, the Russian banking sector experienced its first serious turmoil since the financial crisis of August 1998. As a result of the circulation of various market rumours and, in some cases, certain regulatory and liquidity problems, several Russian privately-owned banks collapsed or ceased or significantly limited their operations. A number of Russian banks were experiencing liquidity problems and were unable to attract funds on the interbank market or from their clients or shareholders. Simultaneously, they faced large withdrawals of deposits by both retail and corporate clients. According to the CBR, from 15 June until 1 August 2004, private depositors withdrew approximately RUB 30 billion from Russian banks, except for Sberbank.

The CBR took steps to combat the crisis. The rate of mandatory reserves that banks were required to deposit with the CBR was temporarily reduced from 7.0 per cent. to 3.5 per cent. To implement these measures, the CBR permitted banks to immediately reduce their mandatory reserves. Accordingly, banks’ borrowing costs have been reduced. In addition, legislation has been passed to mitigate the effects of the crisis and to minimise potential losses of private depositors. In accordance with Federal Law No. 86-FZ “On the Central Bank of the Russian Federation (Bank of Russia) dated 10 July 2002, as amended (the “CBR Law”), the

A – 1 CBR will make payments to the private depositors of insolvent Russian banks if such banks have not been admitted to the system of the insurance of private deposits prior to their bankruptcy.

The disruptions in the global markets experienced since the second half of 2008 and the global financial crisis have had a severe impact on liquidity, as well as the availability of credit and the terms and cost of funding in Russia. Aside from the measures taken internationally to seek to restore confidence in the global capital markets, the Russian Federation enacted a number of measures to support the liquidity of the Russian banking sector. The Russian Government has agreed to, inter alia, provide up to RUB 910 billion in subordinated loans to state-owned and private banks under certain conditions and the CBR established a new facility to conduct uncollateralised lending covering a number of Russian banks.

Measures to support the liquidity of the Russian banking system On 3 October 2008, in addition to the assets previously accepted by the CBR as security (such as promissory notes or receivables), the CBR expanded the list of Bonds, eligible to be provided as security for its loans, to include bonds meeting the following criteria established by the CBR:

(a) the relevant issue of bonds is included in a list of specific types of bonds (published in “Vestnik of the CBR”), which can be accepted by the CBR as security in accordance with the decisions of the CBR’s board of directors;

(b) the bonds are registered on the securities (depo) account opened with a depository;

(c) the bonds are owned by the borrowing bank, and are not charged under any other obligations of the bank and there are no disputes and/or claims in respect of the bonds;

(d) the bonds have to be repaid not earlier than six days after the repayment date under the CBR loan; and

(e) the borrowing bank is not the issuer of the bonds to be provided as security.

On 1 December 2008, the CBR reduced the rating requirements for banks eligible to be compensated for their inter-bank lending losses to BB-/Ba3.

The CBR also holds regular repo auctions.

Following a number of reductions between 14 May 2009 and 30 April 2010 from 12 per cent. to 8.0 per cent., the CBR continued to reduce its refinancing rate. With effect from 1 June 2010, the CBR reported that it decreased its refinancing rate from 8.0 per cent. to record low of 7.75 per cent. This decrease is intended to overcome the deficit of liquidity.

On 1 June 2010, the CBR fixed the interest rate on collateral loans with a term of one day, seven days and thirty days at 6.75 per cent. per annum; and the interest rates on loans from the CBR secured by the pledge of promissory notes, receivables or suretyships provided by credit organisations as follows: 6.75 per cent. per annum for loans with a term of up to 90 calendar days; 7.25 per cent. per annum for loans with a term of 91 to 180 calendar days; and 7.75 per cent. per annum for loans with a term of 181 to 365 days.

During 2009, the CBR gradually increased mandatory reserve requirements for Russian banks. With effect from 1 August 2009, the CBR increased its reserve requirements as follows: on liabilities to individuals (in Roubles) from 2.0 per cent. to 2.5 per cent.; on credit institutions’ liabilities to non-resident banks (in Roubles and foreign currency) from 2.0 per cent. to 2.5 per cent.; and on credit institutions’ other liabilities (in Roubles and foreign currency) from 2.0 per cent. to 2.5 per cent. (the CBR re-established these requirements with effect from 1 November 2009). The reserve requirements were increased to maintain liquidity in the banking system and to urge banks to increase required reserves, which had been lowered as part of earlier anti-crisis measures.

With effect from 14 October 2008, the Russian Government also increased the maximum deposit guarantee for individuals under the Mandatory Deposit Insurance System from RUB 400,000 to RUB 700,000.

A – 2 The Russian Federation has recently adopted a set of federal laws and subordinate legislation to support the liquidity of the Russian banking sector, restore investor confidence and support the medium term economic growth of the Russian economy by facilitating credit across the Russian banking sector.

The Federal Law No. 173-FZ “On the Additional Measures to Support the Financial System of the Russian Federation” dated 13 October 2008, as amended, (“Rescue Measures Law”) introduces the framework principles to support the financial system of Russian Federation and provides for the specific measures and actions to be taken by the CBR and Vnesheconombank.

Under the Rescue Measures Law, the CBR and Vnesheconombank may issue up to RUB 910 billion in subordinated loans to state-owned and private banks provided that certain financial and rating criteria are met. Under the Rescue Measures Law, in 2008, Sberbank, Russian Agricultural Bank and VTB received RUB 500 billion, RUB 25 billion and RUB 200 billion, respectively, in unsecured subordinated loans.

Furthermore, under the Rescue Measures Law, the CBR is authorised to enter into agreements with privately- owned banks to partially compensate such banks for the losses suffered from 14 October 2008 until 31 December 2010 as the result of operations with banks whose licences are revoked. Vnesheconombank had the right, until 31 December 2009, to issue foreign currency loans up to USD 50 billion to Russian legal entities to repay and/or refinance the loans received from foreign lenders prior to 25 September 2008.

Federal Law No. 317-FZ “On Amending Articles 46 and 76 of Federal Law On Central Bank of Russian Federation (Bank of Russia)” dated 30 December 2008 vested the CBR with the right to appoint its authorised representatives to the banks and credit institutions which, inter alia, have received state support, including subordinated loans pursuant to the provisions of the Rescue Measures Law. The CBR Regulation No. 2182-U dated 9 February 2009 provides for the procedure for such authorised representatives appointment, their rights and obligations including, inter alia, the right to participate in the meetings of the management bodies of such banks and credit institutions and the right to request information on issues including the disbursement of loans to third parties.

The Deposit Insurance Law has been amended to increase the amount of the secured deposits of individuals with Russian banks included to the state system of deposits insurance up to RUB 700,000.

Federal Law No. 175-FZ “On the Additional Measures for Strengthening Stability of the Banking System for the Period up to 31 December 2011” dated 27 October 2008, as amended, (the “Banking System Stability Law”) came into effect on 28 October 2008. The Banking System Stability Law envisages that the Deposit Insurance Agency (the “DIA”) will assist the distressed banks through: (i) attracting investors for credit organisations which are experiencing financial difficulties; and (ii) liaising with the CBR regarding the provision of financial assistance under the Bank Insolvency Law by introducing the following additional procedures:

• provision of financial assistance to private investors that have agreed to acquire a controlling stake in a credit organisation in distress;

• financial assistance to other credit organisations that have agreed to acquire certain assets and obligations of a credit organisation in distress;

• acquisition of a controlling stake in a credit organisation in distress directly by the DIA (if there is no investor willing to participate in rehabilitation proceedings);

• provision of financial assistance to a credit organisation in distress subject to acquisition of a controlling stake in such credit organisation by either a private investor or the DIA;

• making arrangements for public sale of the assets securing obligations of a credit organisation owed to its creditors, including the CBR; and

• appointment of the DIA by the CBR to act as temporary administrator in relation to a credit organisation.

A – 3 The decision as to whether bankruptcy prevention measures should be launched in respect of a particular credit organisation rests with the CBR.

The analysis of the financial position of a credit organisation for the purpose of provision of state support to it will be performed by the CBR and the DIA. Based on the results of the analysis the DIA will develop a rehabilitation plan for that credit organisation subject to further approval by the CBR.

According to the DIA website, as at 27 August 2010 the CBR and the DIA have launched rehabilitation measures in respect of 18 credit organisations.

The CBR Regulation No. 323-P “On Provision of Unsecured Loans to Russian Credit Institutions by the Bank of Russia” dated 16 October 2008 has introduced the procedure and criteria for issuing unsecured loans by the CBR.

Government Decree No. 18 “On the Procedure of National Welfare Fund Assets Management” dated 19 January 2008 was amended on 15 October 2008 by increasing the scope of financial instruments in which funds from the National Welfare Fund can be invested. The National Welfare Fund was established in 2008 using oil revenues, with a view to partially funding contributions to pensions of Russian citizens and to make up shortfalls in other contributions from the federal budget to federal pension funds. As a consequence, according to the above Decree, up to RUB 655 billion of such funds may be deposited in Vnesheconombank to support the Russian financial markets.

Statistical information on the Russian banking sector As at 1 August 2010, the number of credit organisations operating in the Russian Federation was 1,160 compared to 1,178 as of 1 January 2010.

According to the CBR, as at 1 August 2010, the total assets of the Russian banking sector were valued at approximately RUB 30,606 billion. The total own capital of Russian credit organisations was RUB 4,529 billion as at 1 August 2010.

The main source of growth of the banks’ financial resources is the increasing number of retail deposits. As at 1 August 2010, the amount of credit balances on Rouble and foreign currency accounts of individuals increased to approximately RUB 8,617 billion as compared to RUB 7,485 billion as at 1 January 2010. The second source of growth of financial resources is credit balances on accounts of corporate clients. The remaining sources of growth of the banking sector’s resource base are increasing volumes of issue of debt securities (primarily promissory notes) and interbank credit operations, amounting to RUB 5,107.4 billion and RUB 3,301.6 billion, respectively, as at 1 August 2010, as compared to RUB 4,075.4 billion and RUB 3,117.3 billion, respectively, as at 1 January 2010.

As at 1 August 2010, of the Russian banking sector’s total assets, 67.2 per cent. were represented by account receivables under loan operations, 17.9 per cent. were represented by investments in securities, 3.7 per cent. and 2.4 per cent. were represented by balances on accounts with the CBR and correspondent banks, respectively, and 3.3 per cent. were represented by other assets. Although the volume and amount of loan operations is increasing, Russian banks are focused mainly on short-term financing due to the insufficient creditworthiness and transparency of Russian entities. That, in turn, broadens the practice of tied loans and financing of affiliated parties.

Banking industry sector The Russian banking sector is characterised by a high level of concentration of capital. As at 1 August 2010, approximately 47.8 per cent. of the banking sector’s total assets were held by five of the largest Russian banks. Sberbank remains the largest bank in Russia in terms of assets, volume of banking operations, client base and the number of branch offices.

State-owned banks continue to play a vital role in the development of the Russian banking sector. State- owned banks offering retail banking services include Sberbank and VTB Group. Other state-owned banks

A – 4 focus primarily on operations with budgetary funds and participate in the realisation of governmental programmes (e.g., Russian Agricultural Bank, Roseximbank (Russian Export Import Bank)).

Although it is not possible for foreign banks to directly conduct business on the Russian financial market, many major foreign banks have subsidiary banks in the Russian Federation. The aggregate level of participation of foreign capital within the Russian banking system is supposed to be determined by federal law as proposed by the Russian Government in conjunction with the CBR. At the moment, however, such law has not yet been adopted. As at 1 August 2010, 24 banks controlled by foreign groups through the holding of more than 50 per cent. of their shares were operating in the Russian Federation. Although certain foreign-controlled banks focus primarily on cash and settlement services to non-residents and interbank operations, many foreign owned banks, such as Raiffeisenbank, Citibank, Bank Société Générale Vostok and Delta Bank, offer full scope services to their Russian customers, including retail deposits and loans to retail customers.

Retail banking Sberbank and, to a lesser extent, VTB 24 (formerly Guta bank, which was purchased and renamed by VTB) are the leaders in retail banking operations. The collapse of large privately-owned banks with large distribution networks, such as SBS Agro, Incombank and Rossyisky Kredit in 1998, considerably undermined the credibility of private consumer banking among retail depositors. State-owned banks currently dominate this sector, partially because of the indirect state guarantee of their retail deposits and partially because of their large branch networks.

Role of the CBR The CBR is in many respects the successor to Gosbank, the former state bank of the Soviet Union, and operates under the CBR Law.

According to the CBR Law, neither the state nor the CBR is liable for the other’s obligations, unless they have accepted such liability under an agreement or such liability is imposed by Russian legislation. The assets of the CBR are under federal ownership. According to the latest available data, as at 1 August 2010, total CBR assets amounted to RUB 17,330.1 billion (approximately USD 564,498 million at the then-current exchange rate) and its gold and currency reserves as at 1 August 2010 (held together with the Ministry of Finance) amounted to USD 475,307 billion.

The CBR is legally and financially independent of the Russian Government. The management of the CBR consists of the Chairman, the Board of Directors and the National Banking Council, a body executing primarily supervisory functions (e.g., determining the CBR’s maximum capital expenditures, allocation of CBR’s profits, appointment of the CBR’s auditors and approval of the CBR’s accounting rules and procedures). The Chairman of the CBR is appointed for a four year term by the State Duma of the Russian Federation (lower chamber of the Russian Parliament) upon nomination by the President of the Russian Federation. The same procedure applies to the Chairman’s removal. The Chairman of the CBR participates in meetings of the Russian Government. Of the 12 members of the National Banking Council, the Federation Council (upper chamber of the Russian Parliament) appoints two from among its members, the State Duma appoints three from among its members, the President of the Russian Federation and the Russian Government each appoint three members. The Chairman of the CBR is ex officio member of the National Banking Council.

Pursuant to the Banking Law and Federal Law No. 173-FZ “On Currency Regulation and Currency Control” dated 10 December 2003, as amended (the “Currency Law”), the CBR is authorised to issue and implement binding regulations with respect to banking and currency operations.

A – 5 Under current legislation, the CBR performs the following main functions:

Issue of currency and regulation of its circulation The CBR has exclusive authority to issue currency in the Russian Federation and to regulate its circulation. The CBR arranges for the printing of banknotes and the engraving of coins, establishes rules for their transportation and storage and regulates over-the-counter cash operations.

Financing/monetary policy The CBR may assist in the re-financing of banks by extending short-term loans at discount rates to private banks. The CBR also establishes reserve and capital adequacy and various ratio requirements for banks. The CBR implements monetary policy by determining refinance interest rates, conducting currency interventions and issuing securities.

Registration and licensing The CBR registers commercial banks and grants licenses for performance of banking activity. The CBR may suspend or revoke banking licences. In addition, the CBR registers share and bond issues by Russian banks.

Supervision and control The CBR oversees banks’ compliance with financial ratio and reserve requirements, imposes sanctions for violations thereof, establishes reporting requirements and accounting rules and procedures for banks, oversees banks’ operations and transactions, appoints temporary administrators of banks, regulates the acquisition and/or trust management of shareholding in banks (for stakes of between one per cent. and 20 per cent. the CBR requires notification; in respect of stakes that equal or exceed 20 per cent., prior CBR approval of the transaction must be obtained) and assesses the financial standing of banks and their owners.

Transactions with banks The CBR:

• extends loans to banks at the discount rate;

• maintains Rouble-denominated correspondent accounts of other banks;

• provides cash and settlement services and issues guarantees to banks;

• purchases and sells Russian state securities and securities issued by the CBR, bullion and precious stones;

• purchases and sells foreign currency and foreign currency denominated payment documents issued by Russian and foreign banks; and

• registers securities issued by banks.

Save for limited instances set out in the CBR Law, the CBR is prohibited from holding shares in banks and other commercial entities.

Federal budget administration and domestic government debt service The CBR acts as placement and service agent for sovereign debt issued by the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation.

The CBR also administers federal budget accounts. However, under the CBR Law, the CBR is prohibited, unless the federal budget expressly authorises it to do so, extend loans to the Russian Government to finance Russian Government budget deficits.

A – 6 Exchange control In accordance with new currency legislation, the CBR, as one of the currency control bodies of the Russian Federation, has retained some powers with respect to regulation of foreign currency operations.

Regulation of the Russian banking sector Banking activity in the Russian Federation is broadly governed by the CBR Law, the Banking Law, various CBR regulations and, to a limited extent, by the Currency Law. While the CBR is the primary regulator of the banking sector, other state authorities also have regulatory and supervisory responsibilities in respect of banks. The FSFM issues licences to banks to act as professional participants on the Russian securities market (e.g., brokerage/dealer and custody activities). Tax authorities supervise tax assessments of banks. The Federal Anti Monopoly Service controls mergers and acquisitions of stakes in excess of 25 per cent. of the total voting shares in credit organisations established in the form of joint stock companies and shareholdings representing one third or more of the charter capital of credit organisations established in the form of limited liability companies.

The Association of Russian Banks, comprising, as at 6 September 2010, 711 members (of which 542 are credit institutions), was established pursuant to the provisions of the Banking Law as a non-commercial self- regulatory organisation. It offers various forms of technical support to its members and lobbies on behalf of the banks in all political branches of the Russian Government.

Federal Law No. 57-FZ “On the Procedure for Making Foreign Investments in Business Entities of Strategic Importance for the National Defense and Security of the Russian Federation,” dated 29 April 2008 (the “Strategic Investments Law”) imposes certain restrictions on direct and indirect foreign equity investments in business entities registered in Russia and carrying out activities of strategic importance to the national defense and security (“Strategic Companies”) (the Strategic Investments Law currently lists 42 such strategically important activities).

A credit organisation would be deemed a Strategic Company if it is engaged in any of the following activities (in accordance with the respective licence): (i) development and production of means of encryption and IT systems protected by way of usage of encryption data systems; (ii) activities involving distribution of means of encryption; (iii) activities involving maintenance of the means of encryption; or (iv) rendering services in the field of information encryption.

Pursuant to the Strategic Investments Law, a transaction entered into by a foreign investor that results in the acquisition of “control” (or blocking power) over a Strategic Company is subject to a consent (prior/retroactive) of the Governmental Commission for Control over Foreign Investment.

Set out below are some of the principal features of the regulatory regime applicable to banks in the Russian Federation.

Licensing A credit organisation must be licensed by the CBR in order to conduct “banking activities”, as defined in the Banking Law. Licence applicants must submit to the CBR a feasibility report, detailed information on senior management and their compliance with qualification requirements, documents certifying the source of funds contributed to the charter capital of the particular credit organisation and certain other documents pursuant to the Banking Law.

A credit organisation must be incorporated in the Russian Federation in order to be licensed by the CBR. Under the Banking Law, credit organisations may be incorporated either as joint stock or limited liability companies or companies with additional liability. The latter form, however, is not common in Russian banking practice, as it envisages joint liability of the company’s owners in respect of the company’s obligations.

The CBR may refuse to register a credit organisation and to issue a banking licence if, among other things: • application documents do not comply with Russian law requirements;

A – 7 • the financial standing of the founders of the credit organisation is unsatisfactory; • candidates for the position of chief executive officer, chief accountant and deputy chief accountant of the credit organisation fail to meet qualification requirements; and • a candidate for a position as a member of the credit organisation’s board of directors has a business reputation which does not correspond to the established qualification requirements.

Capital requirements The basic concept underlying Russian capital requirements is the amount of the capital base (own funds) of a credit organisation, which is defined as the sum of the “main capital” and “additional capital” of the credit organisation minus certain obligations as determined by the CBR.

The main capital and the additional capital are defined by way of an exhaustive list of different types of debt and equity that qualify for treatment as the main and additional capital, as applicable. Main capital includes, among other items, charter capital, share premium, retained earnings and certain reserves funds. Additional capital includes, among other items, assets revaluation reserves, general loan loss reserves, and subordinated debt.

The capital base of a credit organisation must not be less than RUB 180 million with an exception for banks whose capital base constituted less than RUB 180 million as at 1 January 2007. Each bank whose capital base was below RUB 180 million as at 1 January 2007 is required to increase its capital base to (i) a minimum of RUB 90 million by 1 January 2010; and (ii) a minimum of RUB 180 million by 1 January 2012. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in revocation of a bank’s banking licence.

The minimum capital base required for a newly established bank seeking to obtain a general banking licence is RUB 3.6 billion.

Capital adequacy The mandatory financial ratios applicable to Russian banks, including the capital adequacy ratio, are set out in the CBR Instruction No. 110-I “On Mandatory Ratios of Banks” dated 16 January 2004, as amended (“Instruction No. 110-I”).

The following table sets forth the mandatory financial ratios that banks must observe on a daily basis and periodically report to the CBR. Unless stated otherwise, such ratios are calculated on the basis of RAS, as formulated by applicable Russian laws and CBR regulations.

CBR maximum/minimum Description of mandatory mandatory economic ratios Mandatory economic ratios economic ratio requirements Capital adequacy ratio (N1) This ratio is intended to limit the Minimum 11 per cent. (where a risk of a bank’s insolvency and sets bank’s capital base is below RUB requirements for the minimum size 180 million) and minimum 10 per of the bank’s capital base necessary cent. (where a bank’s capital base to cover credit and market risks. It is equal to or more than RUB 180 is formulated as a ratio of the size of million). a bank’s capital base to the amount of its risk weighted assets.

Instant liquidity ratio (N2) This ratio is intended to limit the Minimum 15 per cent. Minimum 15 per cent. risk of a bank’s liquidity loss within one operational day. It is formulated as the minimum ratio of a bank’s highly liquid assets to the amount of the bank’s liabilities payable on demand.

A – 8 CBR maximum/minimum Description of mandatory mandatory economic ratios Mandatory economic ratios economic ratio requirements Current liquidity ratio (N3) This ratio is intended to limit the Minimum 50 per cent. risk of a bank’s liquidity loss within 30 calendar days preceding the date of the calculation of this ratio. It is formulated as the minimum ratio of the bank’s liquid assets to the amount of the bank’s liabilities due in less than 30 calendar days.

Long term liquidity ratio (N4) This ratio is intended to limit the Maximum 120 per cent. risk of loss by a bank with respect to its liquidity as a result of the placement of funds into long term assets. It is formulated as the maximum permitted ratio of a bank’s credit claims maturing in more than one year, to a bank’s capital base and liabilities maturing in more than one year. Maximum exposure to single This ratio is intended to limit the Maximum 25 per cent. borrower or a group of related credit exposure of a bank to one borrowers (N6) borrower or a group of related borrowers (defined as persons who belong to the same banking or financial industrial group, who are close relatives, or who can directly or indirectly materially influence the decisions of legal entity borrowers). It is formulated as the maximum ratio of the aggregate amount of a bank’s claims to a borrower or a group of related borrowers to a bank’s capital base. Maximum amount of major This ratio is intended to limit the Maximum 800 per cent. credit risks (N7) aggregate amount of a bank’s major credit risks (defined as the sum of loans to, and guarantees or sureties in respect of, one client that exceeds 5 per cent. of a bank’s capital base). It is formulated as the maximum ratio of the aggregate amount of major credit risks to the size of a bank’s capital base.

A – 9 CBR maximum/minimum Description of mandatory mandatory economic ratios Mandatory economic ratios economic ratio requirements Maximum amount of loans, This ratio is intended to limit a Maximum 50 per cent. bank guarantees and sureties bank’s credit exposure to the bank’s extended by the bank to its shareholders. It is formulated as the participants (shareholders) maximum ratio of the amount of (N9.1) loans, bank guarantees and sureties extended by the bank to its shareholders, to the bank’s capital base.

Aggregate exposure to the This ratio is intended to limit the Maximum 3 per cent. bank’s insiders (N10.1) aggregate credit exposure of a bank to its insiders (i.e. individuals capable of influencing the bank’s credit decisions). It is formulated as the maximum ratio of the aggregate amount of the bank’s credit claims to its insiders, to the bank’s capital base.

Ratio for the use of a bank’s This ratio is intended to limit the Maximum 25 per cent. capital base to acquire shares aggregate risk of a bank’s (participation interest) in other investments in shares (participation legal entities (N12) interests) of other legal entities. It is formulated as the maximum ratio of a bank’s investments in shares (participation interest) of other legal entities, to a bank’s capital base.

In accordance with CBR Instruction No. 112-I of 31 March 2004, banks issuing mortgage-backed bonds are required to additionally comply with the following mandatory economic ratios: (i) a minimum ratio of issued mortgage loans to a bank’s capital base (N17, minimum 10 per cent.); (ii) a minimum ratio of the amount of the ìmortgage coverageî to the amount of issued mortgage-backed bonds (N18, minimum 100 per cent.); and (iii) a maximum ratio of the aggregate amount of a bank’s liabilities to creditors having a priority right to satisfy their claims, to the bank’s capital base (N19, maximum 50 per cent.). The banks must comply with these special ratios from time of the decision to issue mortgage-backed securities until the complete redemption of securities.

Compulsory reserve requirements Pursuant to the CBR Law, the Board of Directors of the CBR may establish compulsory reserve requirements for banks. Compulsory reserve requirements must not exceed 20 per cent. of a bank’s liabilities and may vary for different categories of banks.

Banks are currently required to post compulsory reserves to be held on non-interest bearing accounts with the CBR. To stabilise the situation on the local financial market and to support the liquidity of the Russian banking sector following the global financial crisis, the CBR gradually increased mandatory reserves for various obligations of credit organisations.

From 15 October 2008 until 1 May 2009, mandatory reserves for banks’ obligations of all types (categorised into obligations to non-resident banks in Roubles or foreign currency; obligations to individuals in Roubles; and other obligations in Roubles or foreign currency) were set at 0.5 per cent. The CBR increased the reserve requirements for banks for all types of financial obligations to 1.0 per cent. starting from 1 May 2009 and implemented further monthly increases in the reserve requirements by 0.5 per cent. on each of 1 June 2009,

A – 10 1 July 2009 and 1 August 2009. From 1 August 2009, mandatory reserves for banks’ obligations of each category (i.e. those to non-resident banks in Roubles or foreign currency; those to individuals in Roubles; and other obligations in Roubles and foreign currency) were set at 2.5 per cent. and the CBR re-confirmed these requirements with effect from 1 November 2009.

From November 2009, the mandatory reserves are calculated by banks in accordance with CBR Regulation No. 342-P, dated 7 August 2009, as amended (the “Reserves Regulation”). The Reserves Regulation requires the banks to promptly report to the CBR and its regional units at the end of each calendar month with calculation of reserves and to promptly post additional reserves, if necessary.

In the event of non compliance by a bank with the compulsory reserve requirements, the CBR may impose a fine on such bank and directly debit the bank’s correspondent account with the CBR in respect of insufficient reserve amounts. The CBR and its regional bodies have a right to conduct unscheduled audits on credit organisations to check their compliance with the reserve rules.

Amounts deposited with the CBR in compliance with compulsory reserve requirements may not be subject to an attachment, arrest or other legal proceedings launched by the bank’s creditors. In the event of revocation of a bank’s banking licence, such amounts are included in the pool of assets generally available for distribution amongst the bank’s creditors in the order established by Russian legislation.

Provisioning and loss allowances The CBR has established certain rules concerning creation of allowances for loan losses in respect of loans extended by banks. The CBR’s Regulation No. 254-P dated 26 March 2004, as amended (“Regulation No. 254-P”) requires banks to adopt procedures for calculation and posting of allowances for loan losses and continuously monitor the financial condition of banks’ borrowers.

In particular, Regulation No. 254-P requires credit organisations to rank their loans (other than loans grouped in the uniform loans portfolio) into the following five categories of credit quality: category I (standard loans) – the absence of credit risk; category II (non-standard loans) – moderate credit risk; category III (doubtful loans) – considerable credit risk; category IV (problem loans) – high credit risk; and category V (bad loans) – no probability that the loan will be repaid. The allocation of the loan into a particular category to be made on the basis of professional judgment. Regulation No. 254-P established that loans classified as Category I loans (standard loans) need not be provided for. Category II through V loans entail the following provisions, respectively: (i) 1% to 20%; (ii) 21% to 50%; (iii) 51% to 100%; and (iv) 100%. Additionally, credit organisations will be required to classify their loan security into two groups on the basis of its quality.

On 12 December 2006, the CBR adopted Instruction No. 1759-U, which provides for amendments to provisioning rules established by Regulation No. 254-P. Instruction No. 1759-U came into force on 1 July 2007. According to this Instruction, Russian banks must provide for portfolios of homogeneous loans granted to individuals depending on whether such loans are secured and the period of time in arrears. A peculiarity of these provisioning rules is that banks are required to establish provisions even for those loans to individuals which are not overdue, i.e. 0.5 per cent. for portfolios of homogeneous loans secured by mortgage and auto loans and 1 per cent. for portfolios of other loans. Maximum provisions amounting to 75 per cent. are to be established for portfolios of loans granted for individuals which are overdue for more than 180 days. However, banks are allowed to allocate minimal reserves only in respect of those retail loans granted after 1 July 2007 (or prior to 1 July 2007 if there were changes to the material terms of such loans afterwards) for which an effective rate is fully disclosed to a customer. In addition, Instruction No. 1759-U provides for insignificant changes in risk assessment procedures and the investment of reserves. On 31 December 2008 new rules on evaluation of debt servicing level of a borrower adopted by the CBR (Instruction No. 2156-U dated 23 December 2008) entered into force. The new rules overrode the provisions of Regulation No. 254-P and were temporarily introduced until 30 June 2010. Under the new rules the debt servicing level of a loan to a legal entity is considered to be good if the aggregate loan or interest repayment arrear does not exceed 30 days for the last 180 calendar days (compared to 5 days aggregate loan or interest repayment arrear stipulated by Regulation No. 254-P). Similarly, the good debt servicing level of a loan to an individual was extended from 30 days to 60 days of aggregate

A – 11 repayment arrear occurred during the last 180 calendar days. Time periods for average and bad debt servicing levels were also increased by 30 days each. In addition, the new rules stipulated that a restructuring of a loan (including change of the loan nominal currency and time periods for repayment of the loan and interest) does not affect the debt servicing level. On 3 June 2010, the CBR adopted Instruction No. 2459-U, which provides for amendments to rules established by Instruction No. 2156-U. Instruction No. 2459-U came into force on 1 July 2010. According to this Instruction, a credit organisation is not obliged to change the debt servicing level of a loan if as at the date of the debt servicing level assessment there is no overdue payment of the principal debt and/or interest for this loan. This Instruction also indicates situations when a credit organisation is not obliged to change the debt servicing level when it assesses credit risk for a restructured loan. Allowances for loan losses are calculated at the end of each calendar month in Roubles and then adjusted each month. Such allowances are only used to cover losses relating to the principal amount of loans made by banks and/or amounts of promissory notes that exclude the relevant interest and discount. The CBR and its regional units have the right to audit the banks’ compliance with the requirements relating to allowances for loan losses and check the correct calculation of such allowances in order to balance the need to create allowances on the one hand and ensure the correct preparation of the banks’ financial statements for tax purposes on the other. The CBR also established rules concerning creation of allowances for possible losses other than loan losses, which may include losses from investments in securities, funds held in correspondent accounts of other banks, contingent liabilities, forward and other transactions. The CBR Regulation No. 283-P dated 20 March 2006 requires banks to rank such assets and operations into five risk groups reflecting the following situations: (i) no real or potential threat of losses; (ii) moderate potential threat of losses; (iii) serious potential or moderate real threat of losses; (iv) simultaneous potential and moderate real threat of losses or material real threat of losses; and (v) value of particular type of asset or operation is going to be lost completely. Banks are then required to provide allowances for each type of asset or operation in the amounts corresponding to the amounts of possible losses but within the following framework established by the CBR for each risk group indicated above, respectively: (i) 0 per cent.; (ii) 1 per cent. to 20 per cent.; (iii) 21 per cent. to 50 per cent.; (iv) 51 per cent. to 100 per cent.; and (v) 100 per cent. Banks must report to the CBR on the amounts of non-loan allowances created each month within ten days following the end of the reporting month. The CBR and its regional units are responsible for monitoring the compliance of banks with these rules.

Regulation of currency exposure In its Instruction 124-I of 15 July 2005, as amended, the CBR established rules regarding foreign currency and precious metals exposure of banks (collectively, “currency exposure”), as well as controls over such exposure. Currency exposure is calculated in respect of net amounts of balance sheet positions, spot market positions, forward positions, option positions and positions under guarantees. A bank’s open currency position is calculated as the sum of all these net amounts. Such exposure is calculated for each currency and each precious metal and then recalculated into Roubles in accordance with the official exchange rates and the CBR’s prices for precious metals. The CBR established that the total amount of all long or short currency positions shall not exceed 20 per cent. of the bank’s own capital at the end of each operational day. At the same time, at the end of each operational day, the long or short position in respect of one particular currency or one particular precious metal shall not exceed 10 per cent. of the bank’s own capital. The CBR is authorised to impose sanctions on banks if the limits on open currency positions are exceeded on more than six operational days in each 30 consecutive days.

Reporting requirements Under the CBR Regulation No. 2332-U dated 12 November 2009, as amended, routine reporting is performed by credit organisations on a daily, five day, ten day, monthly, quarterly, half yearly and yearly

A – 12 basis, and certain reporting is effected on an ad hoc basis. Specific reporting requirements apply to credit organisations in liquidation pursuant to CBR Regulation No. 1594-U dated 14 July 2005, as amended.

Financial statements must be disclosed to the public by the bank on a quarterly and yearly basis. Annual financial statements must be published only after certification of such financial statement by an independent auditor. Quarterly financial statements may be published without certification by an independent auditor.

Under the Banking Law, banking groups (i.e., alliances of banks in which one bank directly or indirectly controls decisions of the management bodies of other banks within the alliance) and consolidated groups (i.e., alliances of legal entities in which one bank, directly or indirectly, controls decisions of the management bodies of other commercial non-banking companies within such alliances) must regularly submit to the CBR the consolidated accounts for the whole group.

The CBR may at any time conduct full or selective audits of any filings made by a bank and may inspect all of its books and records. The CBR, however, is prohibited from conducting a secondary audit of matters covered by the previous audit within a single reporting period, save for limited circumstances specified in the CBR Law.

Accounting practices The CBR establishes accounting rules and procedures for banks, as well as a standard format for presentation of financial and statistical data and recording banking transactions. The Banking Law requires that the annual balance sheet and other financial statements of banks be certified by an auditor licensed by the CBR.

The accounting practices are regulated by CBR Regulation No. 302-P dated 26 March 2007, as amended. Pursuant to this document, financial statements of credit organisation must be prepared in accordance with RAS.

Pursuant to CBR Regulation No. 1363-U dated 25 December 2003, as amended (“Regulation No. 1363-U”) credit organisations are required to submit their IFRS financial statements to the territorial institutions of the CBR for the period from 1 January to 31 December prior to 1 July of the following year.

Pursuant to Regulation No. 1363-U and CBR Letter No. 24-T dated 17 February 2010, credit organisations must prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS on the basis of financial statements prepared in accordance with RAS and submit them to the CBR prior to 1 July of the following year. The Banking Law requires that an independent auditor certify such organisation’s annual financial statements.

Banking reform The global financial crisis revealed a lack of proper management controls and risk management systems in the Russian banking sector and strengthened public anxiety regarding the integrity of the banking system, with misleading advertisements, money laundering, corruption and criminal involvement all being major concerns.

Strategic plans On 5 April 2005, the Russian Government and the CBR issued their joint Strategy for the Development of the Banking Sector of Russia until 2008 (the “Strategy”). The Strategy replaced the five year Strategy for the Development of the Banking Sector in the Russian Federation issued in December 2001, and set out an action plan for the facilitation of the development of the Russian banking sector in the medium term (2005- 2008).

Among other things, the Strategy outlined the targets for the reform of the Russian banking sector, the forecast of the results of such reform and the analysis of the then-current condition of the Russian banking sector. The Strategy also listed measures which should be implemented to achieve these targets.

Following the achievement of the targets set forth in the Strategy, the current action plan (2009-2015) is aimed at positioning the Russian banking sector as a key part of the international financial markets. In early 2008, the Association of Regional Banks of Russia and Expert RA rating agency began to co-develop a new

A – 13 strategy for the period from 2009 through 2015. This strategy is yet to be issued by the Russian Government and the CBR.

In November 2008, the Russian Government adopted a long-term strategy of social and economic development of the Russian Federation for the period until the year 2020, which provides that the medium- and long-term development goal in respect of the Russian banking system and financial markets is to establish an effective and competitive participant within the international financial system, which would ensure a high level of investment activity and financial support to innovative activities in Russia. In this respect, the strategy’s priorities include:

• increasing the level of Russian bank lending in the Russian economy from 40 per cent. of GDP in 2007 to 70-75 per cent. of GDP in 2015 and to 80-85 per cent. of GDP in 2020;

• increasing the role of the banking sector in the financing of investment in core capital from 9.4 per cent. in 2007 to 20-25 per cent. in 2020;

• increasing the reliability of Russian banks by means of their capitalisation and expansion of refinancing mechanisms;

• simplifying the methods by which banks can raise finance, and increasing the efficiency of the ways in which banks collaborate with their customers (for example, in the way that customers and the bank communicate with each other); and

• developing competition in the Russian banking sector, including simplifying issuance of securities by credit organisations, optimisation of mergers and acquisitions procedures, expansion of refinancing instruments by the CBR and introduction of non-withdrawal deposits.

Anti-money laundering legislation In order to build up an effective domestic system for combating money laundering, in August 2001, Russia adopted the Anti-Money Laundering Law and subsequently passed certain legislation to implement this law. As a result of the implementation of anti-money laundering reforms, in October 2002, Russia was removed from the “black list” of non cooperative countries and territories maintained by the FATF. The CBR monitors Russian banks’ compliance with the anti-money laundering requirements by issuing regulations and inspecting banks’ activities. In particular, Russian banks are required to comply with various customer identification, reporting and other related procedures. In line with the development of the anti-money laundering system, the CBR introduced certain restrictions relating to the banks’ operations involving foreign entities and individuals residing in certain off-shore areas. The CBR has compiled a list of such off- shore areas. In particular, the CBR restrictions apply to the establishment by Russian banks of correspondent relationships with foreign banks registered in these off-shore areas.

Under Russian law, the Financial Monitoring Service is the main governmental authority which acts as a financial intelligence unit for the purposes of the FATF Forty Recommendations and, together with the CBR, exercises control over compliance by banks with the Anti-Money Laundering Law. Furthermore, Russian banks are obligated to report through the CBR to the Financial Monitoring Service on the transactions as specified in the Anti-Money Laundering Law.

Failure by Russian banks and their officers to comply with the requirements of the Anti-Money Laundering Law may result in the imposition of sanctions, including the revocation of a banking licence (with a subsequent liquidation of the bank) and criminal penalties for individuals.

Deposit insurance legislation The Federal Law No. 177-FZ “On the Insurance of the Deposits of Individuals in Banks of the Russian Federation” dated 23 December 2003, as amended (the “Deposit Insurance Law”), introduced a system of insuring deposits of individuals. Insurance of deposits of individuals is now mandatory for all Russian banks that hold a CBR licence to attract deposits from individuals (the “retail banking licence”).

A – 14 Banks that hold a valid retail banking licence will need to apply to the CBR to become registered as a participant in the Mandatory Deposit Insurance System. There are a number of tests that banks are expected to meet before being admitted: (i) the CBR must be comfortable that its financial accounts and reports are true; (ii) the bank must be in full compliance with the CBR mandatory ratios (capital adequacy, liquidity etc.); (iii) the CBR should be satisfied as to its solvency position; and (iv) the CBR should not have cancelled such bank’s banking licence. If a bank fails to comply with the above tests and/or chooses not to participate in the deposits’ insurance system, it will not be able to attract deposits from and open accounts for individuals.

Under the Deposit Insurance Law, the protection for each client is limited to RUB 700,000 per bank and banks are required to make quarterly payments into a deposit insurance fund. The insurance payment from the deposit insurance fund will be payable to depositors if a bank’s licence has been revoked or if the CBR has imposed a moratorium on payments by the bank. The basis of the deposit insurance contribution is the quarterly average of daily balances of retail deposits. Standard contribution premiums cannot exceed 0.15 per cent. of the contribution basis. In certain circumstances, the premium can be increased up to 0.3 per cent. of the contribution basis, but not for more than two quarters in every 18 months. When the size of the insurance fund reaches 5 per cent. of total retail deposits of all Russian banks, all succeeding contribution premiums cannot exceed 0.05 per cent. of the contribution basis, and when the size of the insurance fund exceeds 10 per cent. of all Russian banks’ retail deposits, no contributions need to be made, but they resume once the insurance fund falls below the 10 per cent. threshold.

The Deposit Insurance Law provides for the establishment of a new regulator, the DIA, which, among other things, collects deposits, manages the funds in the mandatory insurance pool, determines the insurance premiums and monitors insurance payments. The DIA maintains a register of all banks admitted to the Deposit Insurance System.

Reporting on Credit Histories On 30 December 2004, the President signed the Federal Law No. 218-FZ “On Credit Histories”, as amended (the “Credit Histories Law”). Most of the provisions of the Credit Histories Law came into force on 1 June 2005. Pursuant to the Credit Histories Law, the “credit history” of a borrower (whether an individual or a legal entity) consists of certain data, as defined by the Credit Histories Law, which describe the borrower’s performance under loan or credit arrangements and which are stored with a “credit history bureau” (a Russian legal entity included in the State Register of Credit History Bureaus, whose principal activity is to collect, process and store credit history data and issue “reports”, as defined in the Credit Histories Law). As at 8 June 2010, the FSFM had registered 32 credit history bureaus.

The Credit Histories Law defines the procedures for the submission of data to credit history bureaus, disclosure by bureaus of such data to authorised users, and the rights and obligations of borrowers and bureaus. It also sets out the procedures for the registration of credit history bureaus and the transfer of credit history data upon their liquidation.

Credit history bureaus may disclose credit history data only to:

• a borrower itself;

• banks or other legal entities which are users of such data (with the borrower’s consent);

• courts and, with the consent of a prosecutor general, certain enforcement agencies; and

• the Central Credit History Catalogue administered by the CBR to allow the centralised search of all credit history data.

Since 1 September 2005, banks have been required to enter into agreements with at least one credit history bureau and provide it, subject to the borrower’s consent, with the relevant information relating to the borrowers.

A – 15 Regulation of mortgage-backed securities As part of the development of consumer lending legislation in Russia, the Federal Law No. 152-FZ “On Mortgage-Backed Securities” and amendments to the Civil Code, Tax Code and the Federal Law No. 102 FZ “On Mortgage” were enacted in 2003-2004. By means of these laws, Russian legislators attempted to make mortgage lending attractive to banks and affordable to individuals by simplifying the applicable procedures and making them more transparent and less costly. Another intention of this legislation was to introduce improved regulation of mortgage-backed securities in order to make them more attractive for investors. Several issues of mortgage-backed securities were placed in accordance with the Mortgage- Backed Securities Law between 2006 and 2008.

In addition, under a separate Federal Law No. 264-FZ dated 22 December 2008, important procedural changes were introduced to the recording of mortgage certificates in order to facilitate transactions with such certificates (which is expected to be of help for the issuance of mortgage-backed securities).

An owner of mortgage certificates may submit them to a depositary for recording rights to such mortgage certificates and, as such, facilitating transactions with them. If mortgage certificates are recorded with a depositary, their transfer and pledge is effected by making entries in the relevant depositary account instead of endorsing the original mortgage certificates.

It is now possible to publish pro forma conditions of mortgage certificates on an Internet website or in a publication and incorporate such conditions into the mortgage certificates by reference.

Insolvency regime Apart from the administrative proceedings which may be implemented by the CBR (as discussed below), banks are subject to special bank insolvency rules set out in the Federal Law No. 40-FZ dared 25 February 1999 “On Insolvency (Bankruptcy) of Credit Organisations” (as amended) (the “Bank Insolvency Law”). Pursuant to the Bank Insolvency Law, bankruptcy proceedings against a bank may not be initiated prior to the revocation of its banking licence. If a bankruptcy petition is filed with a court and the banking licence of the allegedly insolvent bank is not revoked the court must request from the CBR an opinion on whether there are feasible grounds for the revocation of the bank’s banking licence. If the CBR issues a negative opinion or fails to respond within one month, the bankruptcy petition must be dismissed. In the latter case, the CBR is liable for any losses a creditor will incur in the result of non revocation of the banking licence.

Pursuant to the Banking Law, a licence of a bank or other credit organisation may be revoked if (i) it is established that the information upon which the licence has been issued is untrue and misleading, (ii) such bank or other lending organisation delays starting its operation for one year from the issue of the banking licence, (iii) it is established that information included by such bank or other credit organisation in its disclosure documents is significantly untrue and misleading, (iv) the credit organisation fails to submit to the CBR its monthly report for more than 15 days, (v) such bank or other credit organisation conducts (at least once) banking operations without an appropriate licence, (vi) the such bank’s or other credit organisation’s activities do not comply with the Russian legislation on banking activities provided that certain sanctions were repeatedly imposed on the bank within one year, (vii) such bank or other credit organisation does not comply with court decisions on the collection of funds from its client accounts on several occasions within one year, (viii) the revocation of the banking licence is requested by the temporary administration appointed for such bank or other credit organisation in cases provided by the Bank Insolvency Law, (ix) such bank or other credit organisation fails to submit updated information required to be reflected in the state register of legal entities and (x) such bank or other credit organisation managing the collateral provided to secure mortgage-backed securities fails to comply with the requirements of the Russian legislation on mortgage- backed securities.

Under the Banking Law, the CBR must revoke a banking licence of a bank, if (i) its capital adequacy ratio falls below 2 per cent., (ii) the amount of the bank’s own capital is less than the bank’s minimal share capital requirement established by the CBR, (iii) the bank fails to adjust its share capital to own capital according to requirements of the CBR within 45 days of the CBR’s notification, (iv) the bank fails to satisfy the claims of its creditors or make mandatory payments (e.g., taxes and duties) in the aggregate amount of RUB 100,000 within 14 days of their maturity, (v) the amount of the bank’s own capital as at 1 January 2007 was RUB

A – 16 180 million or more and the bank fails to keep the own capital amount at the same level during three consecutive months and does not apply to the CBR to change its status to a non-banking organisation, (vi) the amount of the bank’s own capital as at 1 January 2007 was less than RUB 180 million and the bank fails to increase its own capital to the required amount by a certain date or fails to keep its own capital amount at the same level during three consecutive months and does not apply to a change of status to a non banking organisation, (vii) the amount of the bank’s own capital as at 1 January 2007 was RUB 180 million or more and the bank fails for 12 months to keep its own capital amount at the minimum level required by the Banking Law, except for a fall due to a change of the methodology for the appraisal of the bank’s own capital, and does not apply to a change of status to a non banking organisation and (viii) the amount of the bank’s own capital as at 1 January 2007 is less than RUB 180 million and the bank fails for 12 months to keep its own capital amount at the minimum level required by the Banking Law, except for a fall due to a change of the methodology for the appraisal of the bank’s own capital, and does not apply to a change of status to a non banking organisation.

Upon revocation of the banking licence, the CBR must appoint a temporary administration for the bank. The temporary administration overseas the operations, identifies debtors of the bank and collects its assets. The temporary administration performs its functions until appointment of the liquidator or the bankruptcy manager for a term not exceeding six months.

However, under the Bank Insolvency Law, a temporary administration may be appointed to the bank prior to the revocation of its banking licence if (i) the bank fails to satisfy claims of creditors or make mandatory payments (e.g., taxes and duties) within seven days from the date of their maturity due to the absence or lack of funds on its correspondent accounts, (ii) the amount of own capital of the bank falls more than 30 per cent. below the maximum amount of own capital of the bank during the last 12 months with simultaneous violation of one of the capital adequacy or related requirements, (iii) the bank violates the current liquidity ratio by more than 20 per cent. during the preceding month; (iv) the bank does not fulfil the requirement of the CBR to change the management of the bank or to undertake financial recovery measures or a reorganisation within the term provided in the Bank Insolvency Law and (v) there are grounds for revocation of the banking licence of the bank as provided in the Banking Law.

Upon appointment of a temporary administration, the authority of the bank’s management may be limited or suspended. In the event that the bank’s management authorities are suspended, the temporary administration performs the bank’s management functions. During the term of its appointment, the temporary administration analyses the bank’s financial standing, establishes whether there are grounds for revocation of the banking licence of the bank, participates in the development of measures for the financial recovery of the bank, oversees the bank’s operations and issues approvals for the conduct of operations with assets valued at more than 1 per cent. of the total balance sheet value of the bank’s assets. Pursuant to the Bank Insolvency Law, the temporary administration may request that the CBR imposes a moratorium on the performance of the creditors’ claims of the bank. Such moratorium would cover all monetary obligations that arose prior to the appointment of the temporary administration regardless of the maturity date of such obligations.

The temporary administration may also repudiate contracts of the bank that have not been fulfilled or the fulfilment of which, in the opinion of the temporary administration, will lead to losses in comparison with performance of similar transactions or would impede the recovery of the bank’s financial condition.

Furthermore, under the Insolvency Law, the temporary administration may file claims for the invalidation of certain transactions of the bank.

• Suspicious transactions: (i) transactions made after or within one year prior to the court accepting the bankruptcy petition, provided they contemplate unequal consideration (e.g., if the contract price is below the market value); and (ii) transactions made after or within three years prior to the court accepting the bankruptcy petition, provided they were concluded with the intent of impairing creditors’ interests, and the other party had known of this debtor’s intent; and

• Transactions entailing preferential treatment: transactions made after or within one month (in certain cases, six months) prior to the court accepting the bankruptcy petition, provided they meet one of the

A – 17 statutory criteria (e.g., a pledge agreement intended to secure the debtor’s obligations that occurred earlier).

Where the temporary administration is appointed prior to revocation of the bank’s licence, the authority of the temporary administration terminates when the reasons for the appointment of the temporary administration envisaged in the Bank Insolvency Law no longer exist. Otherwise, the head of the temporary administration must request the CBR to revoke the bank’s banking licence.

Upon revocation of the banking licence, the performance of the bank’s obligations in any form is prohibited. The bank must be liquidated either through general proceedings or bankruptcy proceedings. The bank is subject to bankruptcy proceedings if the bank is unable to perform its obligations and/or make mandatory payments in the aggregate amount of RUB 100,000 within 14 days as they fall due and/or the assets of the bank are insufficient to satisfy claims of its creditors. A creditor’s claim is admitted if it is established by a court decision and the creditor submits documents confirming that the debtor failed to fulfil the court decision within a month from submission of the court decision to the bailiff’s office.

The court should consider the insolvency claims on the merits within two months from the date of admission of the application and decide on whether to declare the bank insolvent and commence the liquidation proceedings.

Under Russian insolvency legislation, if the bank is declared bankrupt, the claims of its creditors are satisfied in the following order of priority:

• Claims in respect of insolvency proceedings (current payment claims - claims related to administration of insolvency proceedings, including salaries of personnel involved in insolvency proceedings, utilities bills, legal expenses and other payments after the revocation of the credit organisation’s banking licence.

• First order of priority - (i) claims in tort, (ii) claims of retail depositors and individuals holding current accounts with the bank, (iii) claims of the DIA in respect of bank deposits and bank accounts transferred to it pursuant to the Deposit Insurance Law and (iv) claims of the CBR transferred to it pursuant to applicable legislation in the event that the CBR was required to repay amounts of deposits by individuals with banks that were declared insolvent and did not participate in the Deposit Insurance System.

• Second order of priority - claims under employment contracts and other social benefits and copyright claims.

• Third order of priority - claims of other creditors including claims of retail depositors with respect to lost profits and financial penalties. Claims of creditors secured by a pledge are satisfied from the sale proceeds of the pledged property prior to claims of all other creditors, save for claims of creditors of the first and second orders of priority.

• Last priority - Claims of creditors under subordinated loans, deposits and bonds are satisfied after the satisfaction of all other claims.

Claims of each category of creditors must be satisfied in full before claims of the next category are considered. Recently Insolvency Law and the Bank Insolvency Law have been significantly amended in the following areas:

• clarifying the circumstances in which the management and shareholders of a bank must act to liquidate the bank;

• establishing tests for imposing liability on the management of a bank for the debts to its creditors; and

• expanding and clarifying the grounds for challenging transactions entered into by the debtor.

The amendments significantly amend the provisions relating to the challenge by an arbitration manager in a court of suspicious transactions and transactions entailing preferential treatment of certain creditors, as

A – 18 described above. The arbitration manager can challenge a transaction on its own initiative or on a request made by the creditors’ meeting or creditors’ committee. The amendments provide that the new rules for challenging transactions under the Insolvency Law also apply to bank debtors under the Bank Insolvency Law.

The amendments provide that if in relation to a bank there is “evidence of insolvency” established in the law, the management and shareholders must liquidate the bank. The “workout” measures to restore the solvency of a bank, which are available under the Bank Insolvency Law, are not available at this stage. If the chief executive officer, the members of the management board, the directors or the shareholders fail to initiate liquidation of the bank after the emergence of the “evidence of insolvency”, the amendments impose joint and several secondary (subsidiary) liability for the debts of the bank that arise after the emergence of the evidence of insolvency.

In addition, under the introduced amendments, if the accounting and other reporting documentation of the bank debtor which must be maintained under Russian law has not been transferred to the temporary administration or a bankruptcy manager or it is fully or partially missing, the bank’s management which is under an obligation to secure the safekeeping of its documentation and property, bears secondary (subsidiary) liability for the debts of the bank debtor.
