Not for distribution in or into or to any person located or resident in the United States, its territories and possessions or to any U.S. person (as defined in regulation S under the United States securities act of 1933) or in any jurisdiction where it would be illegal or unlawful. The tender offer described in the announcement is only made to GDR holders outside of the United States and must not be acted upon by, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. person (as defined in regulation S under the United States securities act of 1933, as amended).

PIK Group Announces Results of Tender Offer

Moscow, 27 March 2017 - PIK Group ('PIK' or the 'Company') (MOEX: PIKK, LSE: PIKK) today announces the results of the Tender Offer announced on 13 March 2017. The Tender Offer closed at noon GMT on 24 March 2017.

With the aim of assuring the rights and interests of GDR holders in the context of low liquidity of the Company's GDRs on the London Stock Exchange, and in keeping with its strong commitment to good corporate governance and fair treatment of GDR holders, the Company provided its GDR holders the option to tender their GDRs to PIK at US$ 5.101 per GDR (the 'Tender Offer'). The purchase price represented a premium of 13% per GDR to the 3-month volume weighted average price for the period ended on 10 March 2017, and a premium of 3% to the closing price per GDR on the LSE on 10 March 2017.

Based on the final report provided by the GDR Tender Agent, a total of 53,025,804 GDRs were validly tendered and not withdrawn by GDR holders. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, PIK has accepted to purchase on a pro rata basis (adjusted to exclude fractional entitlements) 49,990,198 GDRs, representing the maximum number of GDRs under the Tender Offer, at the price of US$ 5.101 per GDR, for a total cost of US$255 million. The GDR Tender Agent will make payment through the clearing systems as soon as practicable for further distribution to the holders of the GDRs that have been tendered and accepted.

The GDRs that PIK has accepted to purchase represent approximately 62.6% of the Company's issued GDRs as of 24 March 2017.

As announced on 13 March 2017, an application will be made with the UK Listing Authority to cancel the listing of the GDRs from the Official List of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority and from trading on the standard segment of the London Stock Exchange (the 'Delisting'). Delisting is expected to take place on 15 June 2017.

Following the Delisting, the GDR programme will remain in place and continue to be administered by BNY Mellon. GDR holders may:

- continue to own delisted GDRs, retaining the right to vote and receive dividends on the underlying shares;

- sell their GDRs on the over-the-counter (OTC) market; or

- convert their GDRs into MOEX-listed ordinary shares,

and should seek independent financial, legal and tax advice as to the options available.

Sergei Gordeev, President and Chairman of the Management Board, said:

'We are pleased with the results of the tender offer. PIK intends to delist from the LSE in June 2017 and consolidate trading of our shares on Moscow Exchange in order to increase the liquidity of the stock.'
