De-mystifying our Gazprom Relationship

Co-operative not competing business models Domestic focus to allow Gazprom to meet its long-term export

commitments Cooperation on expanding the UGSS pipeline network Supply specific regional markets according to Protocol with

Gazprom at FTS prices (i.e., Kurgan and Tyumen) Sell gas directly to Gazprom (approximately 10 to 15% of

production) Matching long-term sales contracts with requisite access

rights (currently under discussion)

Reliable natural gas producer with large resource base to meet growing domestic demand

Novatek’s gas already factored into the RF gas balance Novatek supplies gas to large industrial regions (i.e., Tyumen,

Sverdlovsk and Samara), which minimizes the likelihood of supply interruptions

Limits (or reduces) the need for expensive import of Central Asian gas

De-mystifying our Gazprom Relationship

A history of amicable resolutions to all disputes between parties

Potential cooperation in Gazprom’s petrochemical project in Novy Urengoi

Agreement on Strategic Cooperation between Gazprom and Novatek under negotiation covering:

Novatek’s future development plans Access to pipeline network to meet increasing production

profile Novatek’s participation in regional gasification programs Mutual interest in price and transport tariff reform

Status of the Total transaction

• Market transaction announcement and FAS consent filings on September 22, 2004

• Various requests from FAS to Total for additional information

• Statement issued by FAS in the press in late December 2004 indicating likely positive announcement but subject to further review

• Recent press reports indicating additional information required on announced 2005 restructuring plans

Recent trend in FAS approval process indicates that the Ministry is taking a longer time to review Strategic market transactions

(i.e., Alcoa; Siemens, InterBrew, Total)
