Dear shareholders

The elapsed year became the year when post-crisis recovery of the Urals economy has triggered again. After serious meltdown in 2009 energy consumption commenced to grow again on our service area. Our 2010 b usiness report management model, efficiently established and crisis-tested, enabled us to fully exploit our advantages against the backdrop of energy demand boom and to reach high results at the year-end.

Generally, our 2010 energy consumption grew by 8.73% on 2009. During the reported year the volume The Chairperson of the Board of The General Director of transmitted energy totaled 70 887 mln. kW/h, thus exceeding 2009 results by 4.71%. In addition, our Directors V. N. Rodin net profit also grew up to RUR 1 684 773 thous. (+ RUR 613.5 mln. on 2009). These results allow us А. V. Demidov to contemplate a dividend pay-out for the first time since 2007.

During the year the Company’s Board of Directors worked hard to increase governance efficiency. Generally, there were 16 regularly arranged sessions of the Board of Directors. The BoD reviewed and increased – 273.67 MW against 212.2 MW in 2009. Repair targets, determined by our 2010 repair approved our business plan, insurance coverage program as well as collective labor contract. Besides, the program, were accomplished by 112%. In 2010 special attention was given to buildings renovated according BoD approved the Regulations on Risk Management, Internal Control Policy and the Regulations on to defects detected during exploitation. Dividend Policy. According to a BoD resolution, IDGC of Urals joined a non-profit partnership (Union for Energy Auditors and Energy Service Companies) as well as incorporated a 100% subsidiary (Energy With a view to implement our HR policy, on June 23, 2010 the BoD approved the Program on the Service Company of the Urals, OAO). HR Endorsement and Development. The Program is focused on the preservation of staff potential and improvement of personnel training, retraining and development system. In 2010 the company implemented We commemorated the 90th anniversary of the all-Russia electrification plan by commissioning new the new Regulations on personnel training that regulate and encourage the unified approach to training objects and updating grids. In 2010 overall investments totaled RUR 4.6 bln. In the Sverdlovsk region system for all structural subdivisions.

One of the key aims is to work out measures for stimulating energy efficient consumption. The pilot project will generate united technical requirements to intellectual metering devices as well as determine efficiency and payback period for projects, similar to Smart Metering projects. The project will also provide an opportunity to update business processes related to commercial metering in gridcos and retail suppliers. Financing of the Smart Metering project is rolled into the Permenergo investment program (2011 – RUR 197 mln., 2012 – RUR 163 mln.)

In January 2010 Sverdlovenergo launched an energy-saving laboratory. It is aimed at elaboration and implementation of new energy-saving technologies. In May, 2010 Russian- German Energy Agency and IDGC of Urals signed a range of cooperation contracts. According to the contracts, foreign specialists will thoroughly examine our production units in terms of energy saving efficiency. The audit will end in a range of explicit arrangement and investment proposals aimed at energy efficiency boost. In 2011 we plan to work out and implement a program on innovation development covering scientific and R&D works as well as implementation of ready-to-use innovative products. The results of the program will be elaboration and preparation for subsequent mass usage of new equipment as well as cutting-edge and most efficient technologies.

Developing our personnel Taking into account targets set forth for gridcos and segment update finding solution to providing gridcos with highly-skilled workers will be a pivotal factor. Our HR policy is a perspective system of goals and aims based on basic values and aimed at long-term development. Keeping in mind our current HR policy the BoD approved the Program of Personnel Endorsement and Development worked out with a view to the current situation, sector and regional evolution and aimed at preservation, compensation and development of personnel potential.

According to the Russian legislation (FST Decree #20-e/2 dd. 06.08.2004) energy transmission tariffs are set forth as united for all consumers of one voltage class, located on the constituent territory of the federation and belonging to the same group (category), irrespective to which grids they are connected to. We are the holder of united (boiler) grid tariffs in the Sverdlovsk, Chelyabinsk and Perm regions. “Boiler” tariffs:

• Are calculated from payments for energy transmission, according to the contracts, forwarded to the only grid company – IDGC of Urals, ОАО; • Enter expenses for energy transmission by FSK and all grids located in the region; • Are applied for the settlement of payments between IDGC of Urals and providers of last resort, utility companies, retail suppliers and other customers, being wholesale market participants or those who concluded purchase-and-sale contracts with generators or other energy suppliers.

Another important factor is the lack of legal regulation of MRSK-FSK “last mile” relations. Despite the legitimate right to conclude such MRSK-FSK contracts, there are no procedures for contract approval by the Russian Ministry of Energy. Therefore, the appetence of large industrial enterprises to conclude direct transmission contracts with FSK and existing court practice may lead to a possible decrease of the service volume due to cancellation (non-renewal) of “last mile” rental contracts. FSK risk management is aimed at full observance of contract conditions and timely contract prolongation. Court practice is constantly being monitored and analyzed.

Due to the fact that IDGCU’s operations are influenced by many factors, the key goals of integrated system of risk management and internal control are identification, evaluation and management of Financial risks financial and operating risks and provision of information on risks while adopting managerial resolutions. When the Company purchases foreign equipment and other produce, a risk of foreign currency change Strategic risks (increase) may lead to the upsurge of purchase prices and our expenses.

Main measures to reduce the risks are aimed at the minimization of advanced payments to suppliers, keeping records of mala fide suppliers, incessant control of terms and cost during purchase planning and arrangement.

Risks, related to defaults to commission objects, are constituent parts of financial risks and may be caused by mistakes in the planning, delays in approval of investment programs by various authorities, long land plot registration and obtainment of a permit for construction as well as refusal of consumers from connection. We take all measures to minimize investment-related risks. The measures are aimed at the observation of investment program approval rules, rules of control over investment program implementation exercised by the Russian Ministry of Energy. We also have a working system of control over investment program implementation and financing, including weekly control. We have worked out local regulatory documents on capital construction and investment program planning. The company implements measures aimed at timely material and technical maintenance and observation of terms and quality of the works done by contractors.

Operating and technological risks 2010 business report Our operations are related to exploitation risks and risks of technological character which are expressed by violations in normal operation mode, incidents, supply disruption, above-level load increase. Main factors for such risks are high depreciation level, impact made by natural disasters and third persons and companies. Erroneous or wrong operations of Company’s or outsourced personnel, violations in dispatcher modes are also sources of the risks. To minimize the risks the Company focuses on network renovation, elaboration and implementation of target programs of energy supply reliability increase. We also permanently monitor and diagnose equipment as well as review and analyze incidents. Our personnel undergo training and attestation. At present we implement automated management system of technical exploitation and repairs enabling optimization of exploitation, repair and maintenance processes.

Operating risks also include HR-related risks. Insufficient training of personnel as well as low educational level of college and university graduates, discrepancy of personnel qualifications to new technologies, high staff turnover (especially technical staff) are main factors of such risks. Main risk-minimization measures are aimed at the monitoring of labor market to show employer’s attractiveness, close cooperation with colleges and universities on the training of students. The personnel is regularly trained and attested. To increase motivation of personnel during the reported period we elaborated and implemented local regulatory documents stipulating social privileges and guarantees on the service area (Collective agreement and the Regulations on remunerations).

Risks, related to purchasing and logistics, may be caused by planning mistakes, specificity of purchased produce, tight delivery and work schedule, ill-prepared purchase documentation and expertise of participants’ offer. The Company controls the preparation of purchase program, and audits timeliness and grounds for purchasing. The market is being monitored with a view to better demand planning.

Operating risks, related to information technologies used by the Company, may be caused by disruptions in server and network operations, information systems and data transmission channels. To minimize the risks we focus on planned preventive repairs, creation of reserved channels, update of computer power, network and technological equipment. Legal risks Legal risks are generic for IDGC of Urals and any other company operating in Russia. Primarily, legal risks are caused by the specificity of the current legislation, its changes, equivocating interpretation of regulatory documents, contradictory court sentences on similar cases. Legal risks, related to equivocating interpretation of legislation on taxes and levies, possible changes in procedure, rates, terms of tax charge and payment, changes in legislation on joint-stock companies as well as corporate governance, are not significant for us. Permanent monitoring of changes in legislation and court practice enables us to plan our financial and economic operations with regard to changes. Accounting and legal departments work together over the methodology of tax base calculation and control their compliance with the current legislation. There is also a legal expertise of corporate procedures, operations and transactions of the Company. IDGC of Urals, ОАО
