**DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES** 

Mechel PAO (the "Registrant") is filing this post-effective amendment to deregister securities registered for issuance on Form F-3, File No. 333-166309 (the "Registration Statement"). The Registration Statement originally registered an indeterminate amount of preferred shares to be represented by preferred American depositary shares ("Preferred ADSs"). Each Preferred ADS represents one-half of a preferred share. A separate registration statement on Form F-6 was filed for the registration of the preferred ADSs evidenced by American depositary receipts issuable upon deposit of the preferred shares. All securities which remain unsold under the Registration Statement are hereby deregistered. As a result of this deregistration, no securities remain registered for sale pursuant to the Registration Statement.
