Notice of the Annual General Meeting

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of EVRAZ plc (the ‘Company’) will be held at Chelsea Football Club (Stamford Bridge, Fulham Road, London SW6 1HS) on Thursday 16 June 2016 at 11.00 a.m. (London time) to consider and, if thought appropriate, pass the following resolutions of which Resolutions 1 to 13 will be proposed as ordinary resolutions and Resolutions 14 to 16 will be proposed as special resolutions.

Resolutions 7 to 10 (inclusive) relating to the re-election of the Independent Non-executive Directors will be passed only if a majority of votes cast by the independent shareholders of the Company are in favour, in addition to a majority of the votes cast by all the shareholders being in favour.

To authorise the Audit Committee of the Company to fix the remuneration of the auditors.

Directors’ authority to allot shares

To generally and unconditionally authorise the Directors pursuant to and in accordance with Section 551 of the Companies Act 2006 (the “2006 Act”) to exercise all the powers of the Company to allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares in the Company:

(a) up to an aggregate nominal amount of US$469,381,237; and
(b) comprising equity securities (as defined in Section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) up to a further aggregate nominal amount of US$469,381,237 in connection with an offer by way of a rights issue;

such authorities to apply in substitution for all previous authorities pursuant to Section 551 of the 2006 Act and to expire at the end of the next Annual General Meeting or on 30 June 2017, whichever is the earlier, but in each case so that the Company may make offers and enter into agreements during the relevant period which would, or might, require shares to be allotted or rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares to be granted after the authority ends.

For the purposes of this Resolution, "rights issue" means an offer to:

(A) ordinary shareholders in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their existing holdings; and
(B) holders of other equity securities if this is required by the rights of those securities or, if the Directors consider it necessary, as permitted by the rights of those securities,

to subscribe for further securities by means of the issue of a renounceable letter (or other negotiable document) which may be traded for a period before payment for the securities is due, but subject in both cases to such exclusions or other arrangements as the Directors may deem necessary or expedient in relation to treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates or legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory.

Special Resolutions

Disapplication of pre-emption rights

Subject to the passing of Resolution 13 above, to empower the Directors to allot equity securities (as defined in Section 560(1) of the 2006 Act) wholly for cash:

(a) pursuant to the authority given by paragraph (a) of Resolution 13 above or where the allotment constitutes an allotment of equity securities by virtue of Section 560(3) of the 2006 Act, in each case:

(i) in connection with a pre-emptive offer; and
(ii) otherwise than in connection with a pre-emptive offer, up to an aggregate nominal amount of US$140,814,371; and

(b) pursuant to the authority given by paragraph (b) of Resolution 13 above in connection with a rights issue, as if Section 561(1) of the 2006 Act did not apply to any such allotment;

such power to expire at the end of the Company's next Annual General Meeting or on 30 June 2017, whichever is the earlier but so that the Company may make offers and enter into agreements during this period which would, or might, require equity securities to be allotted after the power ends.

For the purposes of this Resolution:

(A) “rights issue” has the same meaning as in Resolution 13 above;
(B) “pre-emptive offer” means an offer of equity securities open for acceptance for a period fixed by the Directors to (a) holders (other than the Company) on the register on a record date fixed by the Directors of ordinary shares in proportion to their respective holdings and (b) other persons so entitled by virtue of the rights attaching to any other equity securities held by them, but subject in both cases to such exclusions or other arrangements as the Directors may deem necessary or expedient in relation to treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates or legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory;
(C) references to an allotment of equity securities shall include a sale of treasury shares; and
(D) the nominal amount of any securities shall be taken to be, in the case of rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into shares of the Company, the nominal amount of such shares which may be allotted pursuant to such rights.

Authority to purchase own shares

To unconditionally and generally authorise the Company for the purpose of Section 701 of the 2006 Act to make market purchases (as defined in Section 693(4) of the 2006 Act) of ordinary shares of US$1.00 each in the capital of the Company provided that:

(a) the maximum number of ordinary shares which may be purchased is 140,814,371;

(b) the minimum price which may be paid for each share is US$1.00;

(c) the maximum price which may be paid for a ordinary share is an amount equal to the higher of (i) 105 per cent. of the average of the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares as derived from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List for the five business days immediately preceding the day on which such ordinary share is contracted to be purchased and (ii) the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current bid as stipulated by Article 5(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) 22 December 2003 implementing the Market Abuse Directive as regards exemptions for buy-back programmes and stabilisation of financial instruments (No 2273/2003 or, from 3 July 2016, Commission-adopted Regulatory Technical Standards pursuant to article 5(6) of the Market Abuse Regulation); and

(d) this authority shall expire at the conclusion of the Company’s next Annual General Meeting or, if earlier 30 June 2017 (except in relation to the purchase of ordinary shares the contract for which was concluded before the expiry of such authority and which might be executed wholly or partly after such expiry) unless such authority is renewed prior to such time.

Notice of general meetings

To authorise the Directors to call a general meeting other than an annual general meeting on not less than 14 clear days’ notice.

Explanatory Notes to the Notice of Annual General Meeting

The notes on the following pages give an explanation of the proposed Resolutions.

Resolutions 1 to 13 are proposed as ordinary resolutions. For each of these Resolutions to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution. Resolutions 14 to 16 are proposed as special resolutions. For each of these Resolutions to be passed, at least three-quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the Resolution.

Under the Listing Rules, Lanebrook Limited is classed as a ‘controlling shareholder’ of the Company. This means that the independent non-executive Directors of the Company must be elected or re-elected by a majority of the votes cast by the Independent Shareholders of the Company, as well as by a majority of votes cast by all Shareholders. Therefore, the resolutions relating to the election or re-election of the independent non-executive Directors (Resolutions 7, 8, 9 and 10) will be taken on a poll and the votes cast by the Independent Shareholders and by all Shareholders will be calculated separately. Such resolutions will be passed only if a majority of the votes cast by Independent Shareholders are in favour, in addition to a majority of the votes cast by all Shareholders being in favour.

Resolution 1: Report and Accounts

The first item of business is the receipt by the shareholders of the Directors’ report and the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2015. The Directors’ report, the accounts and the report of the Company’s auditors on the accounts and on those parts of the Directors’ Remuneration Report that are capable of being audited are contained within the Annual Report.

Resolution 2: Annual Remuneration Report

At the 2014 AGM, Shareholders were asked to approve both the Remuneration Policy Report and the Annual Remuneration Report sections of the Directors’ Remuneration Report. These two resolutions were duly passed. The 2006 Act requires that the Remuneration Policy Report be put to a binding vote by ordinary resolution at least every three years or sooner if there are changes required to the Remuneration Policy. As there are no changes proposed to the Remuneration Policy, Shareholders are being asked to approve the Annual Remuneration Report section of the Directors’ Remuneration Report only, which is set out on pages 134 to 141 of the Annual Report and Accounts 2015.

Resolutions 3 to 10: Re-election of Directors

In accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association and Provision B.7.1 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, all directors of the Company are required to submit themselves to annual re-election by Shareholders. Separate Resolutions are proposed for each of these re-elections. On 15 March 2016, the Company announced that Duncan Baxter and Olga Pokorovskaya had resigned as directors, following a review of the composition and structure of the Board. The remaining Directors offer themselves for re-election to the Board.

Biographical details of each of the Directors, who are seeking re-election, appear on pages 104 to 107 of the Company’s Annual Report 2015 and details of the Committees of which they were members during 2015, are detailed on page 111 of the Company’s Annual Report 2015. The Board believes that each Director standing for election or re-election brings considerable and wide ranging skills and experience to the Board as a whole and continues to make an effective and valuable contribution to the deliberations of the Board. Each individual proposed for re-election has continued to perform effectively and demonstrate commitment to their role.

None of the independent non-executive Directors seeking election or re-election at the Annual General Meeting has any existing or previous relationship, transaction or arrangement with the Company, its Directors, any controlling shareholder of the Company or any associate of a controlling shareholder of the Company within the meaning of Listing Rule 13.8.17R (1).

The Board carries out a review of the independence of its Directors on an annual basis. In considering the independence of the independent non-executive Directors proposed for election and re-election, the Board has taken into consideration the guidance provided by the UK Corporate Governance Code. Accordingly, the Board considers Sir Michael Peat, Karl Gruber, Alexander Izosimov and Deborah Gudgeon to be independent in accordance with Provision B.1.1 of the UK Corporate Governance Code.

The Company’s Nominations Committee considers the appointment and replacement of directors subject to the rules set out in the Company’s Articles of Association. The Nominations Committee will normally engage an independent search consultant with no connection to the Company to find appropriate candidates for the Board with the requisite skills, and in doing so will take account of relevant guidelines and legislation relating to the appointment of individuals to boards. The Nominations Committee may also consider candidates introduced to the Company from other sources.

Resolution 11: Re-appointment of Auditors

The auditors of a company must be appointed or re-appointed at each general meeting at which the accounts are laid. Resolution 11 proposes, on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s auditors, until the conclusion of the next general meeting of the Company at which accounts are laid.

Resolution 12: Remuneration of Auditors

This Resolution seeks shareholder consent for the Audit Committee of the Company to set the remuneration of the Auditors.

Resolution 13: Directors’ authority to allot

The purpose of Resolution 13 is to renew the Directors’ power to allot shares. The authority in paragraph (a) will allow the Directors to allot new shares and grant rights to subscribe for, or convert other securities into, shares up to approximately one third of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company (exclusive of treasury shares) which as at 16 May 2016 is equivalent to a nominal value of US$469,381,237.

The authority in paragraph (b) will allow the Directors to allot new shares and grant rights to subscribe for, or convert other securities into, shares only in connection with a rights issue up to a further nominal value of US$469,381,237, which is equivalent to approximately one third of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company (exclusive of treasury shares) as at 16 May 2016. This is in line with corporate governance guidelines. As at 16 May 2016, the Company held 98,383,582 treasury shares.

There are no present plans to undertake a rights issue or to allot new shares other than in connection with employee share and incentive plans. The Directors consider it desirable to have the maximum flexibility permitted by corporate governance guidelines to respond to market developments and to enable allotments to take place to finance business opportunities as they arise.

If the Resolution is passed the authority will expire on the earlier of 30 June 2017 and the end of the Annual General Meeting in 2017.

Resolution 14: Disapplication of pre-emption rights

If the Directors wish to allot new shares and other equity securities, or sell treasury shares, for cash (other than in connection with an employee share scheme), company law requires that these shares are offered first to shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings.

The purpose of paragraph (a) of Resolution 14 is to authorise the Directors to allot new shares pursuant to the authority given by paragraph (a) of Resolution 13, or sell treasury shares, for cash (i) in connection with a pre-emptive offer or rights issue or (ii) otherwise up to a nominal value of US$140,814,371, equivalent to approximately 10% of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 16 May 2016, in each case without the shares first being offered to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings.

The purpose of paragraph (b) of Resolution 14 is to authorise the Directors to allot new shares pursuant to the authority given by paragraph (b) of Resolution 13, or sell treasury shares, for cash in connection with a rights issue without the shares first being offered to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings. This is in line with corporate governance guidelines.

The Board considers the authority in Resolution 14 to be appropriate in order to allow the Company flexibility to finance business opportunities or to conduct a pre-emptive offer or rights issue without the need to comply with the strict requirements of the statutory pre-emption provisions.

The Directors will have due regard to the Pre-Emption Group 2015 Statement of Principles for the disapplication of pre-emption rights (the "Statement of Principles") in relation to any exercise of this power, in particular (1) as regards the first 5%, to the requirement for advance consultation and explanation before making any non-pre-emptive cash issue pursuant to this resolution which exceeds 7.5% of the Company's issued share capital in any rolling three year period; and (2) as regards the second 5%, the Directors confirm that they intend to use this power only in connection with an acquisition or specified capital investment (within the meaning of the Statement of Principles from time to time) which is announced contemporaneously with the issue, or which has taken place in the preceding six month period and is disclosed in the announcement of the issue.

Resolution 15: Purchase of own shares

The effect of Resolution 15 is to renew the authority granted to the Company to purchase its own ordinary shares, up to a maximum of 140,814,371 ordinary shares, until the Annual General Meeting in 2017 or 30 June 2017, whichever is the earlier. This represents 10 per cent. of the ordinary shares in issue as at 16 May 2016 (excluding shares held in treasury) and the Company's exercise of this authority is subject to the stated upper and lower limits on the price payable.

Pursuant to the Companies Act 2006, the Company can hold the ordinary shares which have been repurchased itself as treasury shares and either resell them for cash, cancel them, either immediately or at a point in the future, or use them for the purposes of its employee share schemes. The Directors believe that it is desirable for the Company to have this choice and therefore intend to hold any ordinary shares purchased under this authority as treasury shares. Holding the repurchased ordinary shares as treasury shares will give the Company the ability to re-sell or transfer them in the future, and so provide the Company with additional flexibility in the management of its capital base. No dividends will be paid on, and no voting rights will be exercised in respect of, treasury shares.

Ordinary shares will only be repurchased for use for the purposes of employee share schemes, or if the directors consider such purchases to be in the best interests of shareholders generally and that they can be expected to result in an increase in earnings per share. The authority will only be used after careful consideration, taking into account market conditions prevailing at the time, other investment opportunities, appropriate gearing levels and the overall financial position of the Company. Ordinary shares held as treasury shares will not automatically be cancelled and will not be taken into account in future calculations of earnings per share (unless they are subsequently resold or transferred out of treasury).

As at 12 May 2016 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this Notice), there were 42,165,099 outstanding share-based awards or options granted under all incentive plans operated by the Company, which if exercised would represent 2.99% of the issued share capital of the Company (excluding shares held in treasury). If this authority were exercised in full, that percentage would increase to 3.33%.

Resolution 16: Notice of general meetings

Under the Companies Act 2006, as amended, the notice period required for all general meetings of the Company is 21 days, though shareholders can approve a shorter notice period for general meetings that are not AGMs, which cannot however be less than 14 clear days. AGMs will continue to be held on at least 21 clear days' notice. The shorter notice period would not be used as a matter of routine for such meetings, but only where the flexibility is merited by the business of the meeting and is thought to be to the advantage of shareholders as a whole. Shareholder approval will be effective until the Company's next AGM, when it is intended that a similar resolution will be proposed.

Further Notes

Proxy appointment

A member is entitled to appoint another person as his proxy to exercise all or any of his rights to attend and to speak and vote at the Annual General Meeting. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the Company. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Annual General Meeting provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder.
A form of proxy is enclosed. The appointment of a proxy will not prevent a member from subsequently attending and voting at the meeting in person.
To appoint a proxy the form of proxy, and any power of attorney or other authority under which it is executed (or a duly certified copy of any such power or authority), must be either (a) sent to the Company's Registrars, Computershare Investor Services PLC, at The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol, BS99 6ZY, or (b) the proxy appointment must be lodged using the CREST Proxy Voting Service in accordance with Note 10 below, or (c) the proxy appointment must be registered electronically on the website at www.investorcentre.co.uk/eproxy or by using the QR Code printed on the form of proxy in each case so as to be received no later than 11.00 a.m. on 14 June 2016.

Joint shareholders

In the case of joint holders of a share the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names appear in the register or members in respect of the share.

Nominated persons

The right to appoint a proxy does not apply to persons whose shares are held on their behalf by another person and who have been nominated to receive communications from the Company in accordance with Section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 ("nominated persons"). Nominated persons may have a right under an agreement with the member who holds the shares on their behalf to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy. Alternatively, if nominated persons do not have such a right, or do not wish to exercise it, they may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the person holding the shares as to the exercise of voting rights.

Information about shares and voting

Holders of ordinary shares are entitled to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company. The total number of issued ordinary shares (exclusive of treasury shares) in the Company on 16 May 2016, which is the latest practicable date before the publication of this document is 1,408,143,712 carrying one vote each on a poll. Therefore, the total number of votes exercisable as at 16 May 2016 are 1,408,143,712.

Right to attend and vote

Entitlement to attend and vote at the meeting, and the number of votes which may be cast at the meeting, will be determined by reference to the Company's register of members at 6pm on 14 June 2016 or, if the meeting is adjourned, 48 hours before the time fixed for the adjourned meeting (as the case may be). In each case, changes to the register of members after such time will be disregarded.

Venue arrangements

Members should note that the doors to the AGM will be open for registration at 10:30 a.m.
Mobile phones may not be used in the meeting hall, and cameras, tape or video recorders are not allowed in the meeting hall.

CREST members

CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the meeting (and any adjournment of the meeting) by following the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members (and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider) should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider, who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made by means of CREST to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a “CREST Proxy Instruction”) must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear’s specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com/CREST). The message (regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy) must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by Computershare Investor Services PLC (ID 3RA50) by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments specified in Note 3 above. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer’s agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to a proxy appointed through CREST should be communicated to him by other means.

CREST members (and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers) should note that Euroclear does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider, to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider takes) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members (and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers) are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5) (a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

Corporate representatives

Any corporation which is a member can appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise on its behalf all of its powers as a member provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares.

Audit concerns

Shareholders should note that, under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 members meeting the threshold requirements set out in that section have the right to require the company to publish on a website a statement setting out any matter relating to: (i) the audit of the Company’s accounts (including the auditor’s report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the Annual General Meeting for the financial year ended 31 December 2015; or (ii) any circumstance connected with an auditor of the Company appointed for the financial year ended 31 December 2015 ceasing to hold office since the previous meeting at which annual accounts and reports were laid. The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with Sections 527 or 528 (requirements as to website availability) of the Companies Act 2006. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, it must forward the statement to the Company’s auditor not later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the Annual General Meeting for the relevant financial year includes any statement that the Company has been required under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 to publish on a website.

129TQC D01

Questions

Any member attending the meeting has the right to ask questions. The Company must cause to be answered any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the meeting but no such answer need be given if (a) to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information, (b) the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question, or (c) it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the meeting that the question be answered.

Website information

A copy of this notice and other information required by Section 311A of the Companies Act 2006 can be found at www.evraz.com.

Voting by poll

Each of the Resolutions to be put to the meeting will be voted on by poll and not by show of hands. A poll reflects the number of voting rights exercisable by each member and so the Board considers it a more democratic method of voting. It is also in line with recommendations made by the Shareholder Voting Working Group and Paul Myners in 2004. Members and proxies will be asked to complete a poll card to indicate how they wish to cast their votes. These cards will be collected at the end of the meeting. The results of the poll will be published on the Company's website and notified to the UK Listing Authority once the votes have been counted and verified.

Use of electronic address

Members may not use any electronic address provided in either this notice of meeting or any related documents (including the enclosed form of proxy) to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.

Documents available for inspection

Copies of the executive Directors' service contracts and letters of appointment of the non-executive Directors may be inspected during normal business hours on any weekday (Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays excepted) at the registered office of the Company at 5th Floor, 6 St Andrew Street, London, United Kingdom, EC4A 3AE up to and including the date of the AGM and at Chelsea Football Club (Stamford Bridge, Fulham Road, London, SW6 1HS, from 15 minutes before the AGM until it ends.

Communication

Except as provided above, shareholders who have general queries about the AGM should either call the Registrar's helpline on +44 (0)370 873 5848; or write to the Registrar, Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS13 8AE. No other methods of communication will be accepted.
