May 2024 – PJSC ALROSA announces the procedure for
submitting payment requests under the Eurobonds pursuant to Decree
No. 198 dated 19 March 2024.
PJSC ALROSA (the “Company”) reported
earlier that it started fulfilling its obligations under two Eurobond
issues in the amount of USD 500,000,000 maturing in 2024 with a
coupon rate of 4.65% per annum (the “2024 Eurobonds”) and in the
amount of USD 500,000,000 maturing in 2027 with a coupon rate of
3.1% per annum (the “2027 Eurobonds”) (collectively, the
“Eurobonds”) pursuant to Decree No. 198 of the President of
the Russian Federation On Additional Temporary Measures of Economic
Nature Relating to the Performance of Obligations under Certain
Securities dated 19 March 2024 (“Decree No. 198”).
Those Eurobond Holders who have not received their
payment under the Eurobonds may, within 60 days following the
next Eurobond payment, submit to the Company a payment request
together with supporting documents to confirm the holder’s
ownership of the Eurobonds (the list of documents and additional
forms is attached hereto).
The 2024 Eurobonds (ISIN XS1843441731,
US02109TAD46) were redeemed on 17 April 2024, with the
record date being 8 April 2024. Those holders who have not
received their payment may submit a payment request on or before
16 June 2024.
Pursuant to Decree No. 198, the Company
causes a Russian depository to review submissions. For these
purposes, the Company appoints the National Settlement Depository
(NSD).
The application form and the list of supporting
documents to be submitted to the Company are determined by the
Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Bank of Russia On the
List of Information to be Included in a Payment Request under the
Eurobonds Relating to the Obligations of a Russian Legal Entity and
the List of Supporting Documents dated 12 April 2024.
The original payment request and supporting
documents (together with the list of enclosures) must be submitted in
person or by proxy (together with the respective power of attorney)
by the above date to the Company’s office at 24 Ozerkovskaya
Embankment, Bld. 1, Moscow.
Further review of submissions and payments will be
governed by Decree No. 198.
The Company reserves the right to dismiss a
payment request if the Eurobond Holder’s submission is incomplete
or fails to meet the applicable requirements or otherwise, making it
impossible to duly confirm the ownership of the Eurobonds.
If acting as a tax agent, the Company will also
place a notice on its website requesting additional documents.
