On June 5, 2008, Rosneft’s Annual General Shareholders Meeting and Board of Directors Meeting took place in Moscow.

The Shareholders Meeting approved the Company’s annual report for 2007, annual financial statements for 2007, and profit distribution. The Meeting also approved amendments to the Company’s Charter and related-party transactions.

The Company’s net income was approved at RUB 162.022 billion, while total dividends for 2007 were set at RUB 16.957 billion (RUB 1.6 per ordinary share), a 20% increase compared to 2006. Dividends will be paid through December 31, 2008. The record-high dividends are largely the result of Rosneft’s continued business growth and improved operating efficiency.
