(the “First Tranche”) to be made available to the Borrower under the Loan Agreement as part of the non-revolving loan facility: 


“2.10. The Borrower has diligently and thoroughly assessed whether the execution of this Agreement would be acceptable and desirable for

 2.11. The Borrower acknowledges and accepts all potential risks and effects as may arise out of
or in connection with the execution or performance of this Agreement. 
 2.12. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: 

2.12.1. Provision of the loan on the terms described in Clause 3.4 hereof allows the Borrower to obtain the loan interest rate mentioned in
Clause 4.1 below; 
 2.12.2. Had the loan been provided by the Lender without regard to the terms described in Clause 3.4 hereof, the loan
interest rate offered by the Lender to the Borrower would have been higher than that which is mentioned in Clause 4.1 below; 
 2.12.3. By
taking out the loan on the terms as described in Clause 3.4 hereof, the Borrower incurs certain currency, interest rate and other risks, and the Borrower understands and accepts all such risks. Furthermore, the Borrower understands, anticipates and
accepts as an acceptable risk the risk of change (including material change) in circumstances (business risk) involving a change (including by a significant number of basis points) in the U.S. dollar to Russian ruble exchange rate as may occur for
any reason whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any change in the government trade, fiscal or monetary policy, a change in currency controls or in the condition of financial markets or relevant industries, political, social or economic
instability, or any other reason) and which may result in a change in the Borrower’s payment obligations (including, without limitation, the need to repay the loan or to pay interest in U.S. dollars); 

2.12.4. No change in circumstances as described in Clause 2.12.3 above may serve as the reason for the Borrower to request amendment or
termination of this Agreement or any instrument related hereto in accordance with Article 451 of the Russian Civil Code or any other Russian law or statute; 

2.12.5. The Lender is capable to extend the loan to the Borrower on the terms described in Clauses 3.4 and 4.1 hereof solely on the condition
of the Lender hedging of or mitigating the associated risks. Accordingly, on the date of the loan disbursement, the Lender will choose at its own discretion a counterparty on the financial derivatives market and enter with such party into a
cross-currency swap transaction (“Swap Transaction”), which would be by nature a derivative financial instrument; 
 2.12.6.
The Lender will enter into the Swap Transaction solely with a view to hedge/minimize the risks arising out of the Lender’s decision to extend the loan to the Borrower on the terms of this Agreement, and the Lender would not have entered into
the Swap Transaction if it had not provided the loan to the Borrower hereunder; 
 2.12.7. When negotiating the terms of and concluding the
Swap Transaction, the Lender will be relying on due and proper performance by the Borrower hereunder as the Lender intends to use the proceeds of the Borrower payments hereunder to discharge the Lender’s obligations under the Swap Transaction;

either terminate the Swap Transaction or to enter into a transaction (or a series of transactions) allowing the Lender to duly and properly perform its obligations under the Swap Transaction after the Lender accelerates repayment of the loan and
payment of interest, penalties and other fees and charges (as applicable) under Clause 7.1.7 hereof (“Termination of the Hedging Arrangements”);

corresponding loan interest payment date, as determined in Clause 4.2 hereof (or, in each case, the corresponding next following date), which would next follow the date when the Russian ruble to

early repayment request requiring the Borrower to accelerate repayment of the loan and payment of interest, penalties, fees or other charges (as applicable) under Clause 7.1.7 hereof. Accordingly, the Borrower assumes the risk of compensating the
