The Meeting approved the Company's 2010 Annual Report and Accounting Statements including the Profit and Loss Statement. The decision was also taken on the Company's profit distribution, annual dividends inclusive, based on the fiscal year results.

The Shareholders Meeting approved the dividend amount – RUB 3.85 per share following the Company's 2010 operating results. This is the record high dividend amount in the corporate history. August 29, 2011 was set as the dividend payment deadline. These decisions fully comply with the Board of Directors' recommendations.

The Meeting approved PricewaterhouseCoopers Audit (Closed Joint Stock Company) as Gazprom's Auditor for 2011. The company had been recognized as the winner of the open tender held in compliance with the Federal Law on Audit Activities.
