Position and recommendations of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" on items on the agenda of the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC "LUKOIL"

On item 1 on the agenda of the Meeting: 'On payment (declaration) of dividends based on the results of the first nine months of 2019'

Position:

The current legislation provides for payment of dividends to shareholders of PJSC "LUKOIL" more than once a year.

According to the Regulations on the Dividend Policy of PJSC "LUKOIL" (the Regulations), to ensure steady dividend payouts, the Company seeks to pay dividends to its shareholders at least twice a year: based on its results for the first nine months of the reporting year (the "Interim Dividends"), and based on the reporting year results (the "Final Dividends"). The Company's current practice of interim dividend payments contributes to higher investment attractiveness of PJSC "LUKOIL".

The Board of Directors believes that the recommended Interim Dividend of 192 roubles per ordinary share based on the Company's results for the first nine months of 2019 appears optimal, as it:

  • Complies with all the Interim Dividend calculation guidelines stipulated by the Regulations;
  • Reflects the Company's financial performance in the reporting period and is relevant to its financial position;
  • Ensures the competitive level of dividend income for shareholders of PJSC "LUKOIL".

Also, the dividend based on the Company's results for the first nine months of 2019 and recommended by the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" is consistent with the following core dividend policy principles approved by decision of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" (Minutes No.17 of 16 October 2019) to be used as a basis for drafting a revised version of the Regulations on the Dividend Policy of PJSC "LUKOIL" by the end of 2019 with due regard to the recommendations of the Strategy, Investment and Sustainability Committee of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" (Minutes No.6 of 03 October 2019):

  • − the total amount of dividends on the Company's issued shares, excluding the shares held by LUKOIL Group entities, equals at least 100% of the Company's adjusted free cash flow;
  • − the adjusted free cash flow is calculated on the basis of PJSC "LUKOIL" consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and is determined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, interest paid, repayment of lease obligations, and expenses for purchase of Company's stock;
  • − dividend per share is rounded to the nearest Russian rouble;
  • − dividends are paid twice a year, with the amount of interim dividends calculated based on the consolidated financial statements for the six-month period.

There are no restrictions imposed by the effective legislation of the Russian Federation on dividend payments based on results for the first nine months of 2019.

In accordance with the norms of the Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies, the dividend payout period is dependent on the date on which persons entitled to receive dividends (dividend record date) are determined. Such date is determined only based on a proposal by the Board of Directors of a company and may not be set earlier than 10 days from the date a decision on payment (declaration) of dividends is passed by the general shareholders meeting or later than 20 days after such a decision. Given the above limitations, it is being proposed to set 20 December 2019 as the date on which persons entitled to receive dividends based on the results of the first nine months of 2019 will be determined.

Dividend payments to nominee shareholders and trust managers registered in the shareholder register must take place within 10 business days from the date on which persons entitled to receive dividends are determined, and to other persons registered in the shareholder register – within 25 business days from that date. The dividends are proposed to be paid within the deadlines stipulated by law using monetary funds from the account of PJSC "LUKOIL", with all costs on the transfer of dividends, given the current corporate practices, be covered by PJSC "LUKOIL".

Recommendation:

To pay dividends on ordinary shares of PJSC "LUKOIL" based on the results of the first nine months of 2019 in the amount of 192 roubles per ordinary share. The dividends be paid using monetary funds from the account of PJSC "LUKOIL" as follows: to nominee shareholders and trust managers who are professional market participants registered in the shareholder register of PJSC "LUKOIL" to be made not later than 10 J anuary 2020, to other persons registered in the shareholder register of PJSC "LUKOIL" to be made not later than 31 January 2020. The costs on the transfer of dividends, regardless of the means, will be paid by PJSC "LUKOIL".

To propose that the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting set 20 December 2019 as the date on which persons entitled to receive dividends based on the results of the first nine months of 2019 will be determined.

The proposed decisions are based on the recommendations of the Strategy, Investment and Sustainability Committee of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" (Minutes No.6 of 03 October 2019).

On item 2 on the agenda of the Meeting: 'On payment of a part of the remuneration to members of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" for their performance of the functions of the members of the Board of Directors'

Position:

In accordance with Clause 2, Article 64 of Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies, by decision of the general meeting of shareholders, the members of the board of directors of a company may be paid remuneration in the period during which they perform their duties. The amount of such remuneration shall be established by decision of a general meeting of shareholders.

The Director Compensation and E xpense Reimbursement Policy of PJSC "LUKOIL" provides that subject to a decision by an Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting, members of the Company's Board of Directors may be paid a part of the remuneration for their performance of responsibilities as members of the Board of Directors.

Also, the Procedure for the remuneration and reimbursement of expenses of members of the Board of Directors and Audit Commission of PJSC "LUKOIL" stipulates a possibility of a partial payment, prior to the Annual General Shareholders Meeting, of the remuneration to members of the Board of Directors for the performance of their functions (Board fee) by decision of the Company's Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting.

Partial payments of the remuneration to members of the Board of Directors for the performance of their functions have become a company practice since 2015, being widely used by Russian issuers. A partial payment of the Board fee will compensate Directors' inflation losses, and align with the current macroeconomic environment and the balance of interest between the Company and its Board members.

The Board fee for the newly elected members of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" was established by the Annual General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC "LUKOIL" on 20 June 2019 (Minutes No.1) in the amount of 7,000,000 roubles. The Board of Directors recommends that one-half of this amount (i.e. 3,500,000 roubles) be paid to each member of the Board of Directors.

Recommendation:

To pay a part of the remuneration to members of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" for performance of their functions (Board fee) for the period from the date the decision on the election of the Board of Directors was taken to the date a decision is taken by the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC "LUKOIL" constituting one-half (i.e. 3,500,000 roubles each) of the Board fee established by decision of the Annual General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC "LUKOIL" on 20 June 2019 (Minutes No.1).

The proposed decision is based on the recommendations of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" (Minutes No.5 of 03 October 2019).

On item 3 on the agenda of the Meeting: 'On payment of remuneration to members of the Audit Commission of PJSC "LUKOIL"'

Position:

As provided in the second paragraph of Clause 1, Article 85 of the Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies, members of the audit commission of a company may receive remuneration during their term of office by decision of its general shareholders meeting. The amount of such remuneration is established by decision of a general meeting of shareholders.

The Annual General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC "LUKOIL" held on 20 J une 2019 (Minutes No.1) resolved to retain the amount of the remuneration (RUB 3,500,000) payable to each member of the Audit Commission of PJSC "LUKOIL" established by decision of the Annual General Shareholders Meeting of PJSC "LUKOIL" of 23 June 2016 (Minutes No.1). Given that the Meeting Agenda includes an item On the early termination of powers of members of the Audit Commission of PJSC "LUKOIL", the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting is being proposed to resolve to pay the above amount of remuneration to the members of the Audit Commission.

Recommendation:

To pay remuneration to the members of the Audit Commission of PJSC "LUKOIL" in the following amounts:

I.N. Vrublevskiy – 3,500,000 roubles A.V. Otrubyannikov – 3,500,000 roubles P.A. Suloev – 3,500,000 roubles.

The proposed decision is based on the recommendations of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of PJSC "LUKOIL" (Minutes No.5 of 03 October 2019).

On item 4 on the agenda of the Meeting: 'Approval of a new version of the Charter of Public Joint Stock Company "Oil company "LUKOIL"'

Position:

In accordance with Article 12 of the Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies amendments to the charter of a company shall be made by decision of a general meeting of shareholders.

The revised Charter of Public Joint Stock Company "Oil company "LUKOIL" (hereinafter referred to as the Charter) is hereby proposed for approval by the Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting. The rationale for approval of the amended Charter is dictated primarily by the:

  • need to add consistency to the wording of the Charter, the current version whereof was approved back in 2011, and all and any amendments and addenda made thereto to ease the perception of provisions contained therein and cut back on the costs incurred in having copies of the Company Charter and a total of 12 amendments and addenda thereto notarized; and

  • exclusion from the Charter of the provisions regarding the Audit Commission of PJSC "LUKOIL", its corporate control/supervisory body, by virtue of Clause 1, Article 85 of the Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies which does not make it binding upon publ ic companies to set up a udit commissions. Termination of the Company's Audit Commission is intended to rule out any potential overlapping of functions of the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, the Internal Audit Service, and the Audit Commission regarding supervision of the Company's business activities, and to reduce the costs incurred in relation to the Audit Commission activities.

The Company Charter is also amended as follows:

  • sub-point 3.2.12, point 3.2 of the Charter, whereby the Company engages in health, safety, and environmental activities, is amended to the extent that OHSAS 18001 is superseded with ISO 45001, which is due to the fact that LUKOIL Group chose to align its Health, Safety and Environment Management System with ISO 45001, enacted on 12 March 2018, rather than with OHSAS 18001;

  • greater clarity has been introduced as regards authority of the Company's Board of Directors, as outlined in sub-point 9.7.8, point 9.7 of the Charter, with regard to deletion of the provisions governing the approval of securities issuance reports, which is explained by the enactment on 1 January 2020 of the amended and restated Article 25 of the Federal Securities Market Law, which does not require approval of the securities issuance reports by the company's competent body, and by changing the name of the securities issuance resolution consistent with the terms used in Sub-Clause 7.1, Clause 1, Article 65 of the Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies, as amended by Federal Law No. 514-FZ of 27 December 2018, taking effect on 1 January 2020;

  • the Company Charter is modified to contain amendments of legal and technical nature that are designed to clarify the wording and terminology of the Company Charter in line with provisions of the Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies.

Recommendation:

To approve a new version of the Charter of Public Joint Stock Company "Oil company "LUKOIL".

Under Clause 4, Article 72 and Article 77 of the Federal Law On Joint Stock Companies the Board of Directors determined the purchase price for the Company per one registered ordinary share of PJSC "LUKOIL" being equal to RUB 5,300 (five thousand three hundred) based on its market value in view of the information provided by Public Joint Stock Company Moscow Exchange MICEX-RTS on t he weighted average price of one ordinary share of PJSC "LUKOIL" for the period from 15 April 2019 to 14 October 2019 calculated based on the current calculations methodology of Public Joint Stock Company Moscow Exchange.
