UNITED COMPANY RUSAL PLC(Incorporated under the laws of Jersey with limited liability)(Stock Code: 486)

INSIDE INFORMATIONREFINANCING FACILITY

This announcement is made by the Company pursuant to Rule 13.09 of the Listing Rules and the Inside Information Provisions under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).

References are made to the previous announcements of the Company in relation to the USD4.75 Billion PXF, the USD400 Million PXF, the Amendment Agreement combining the USD4.75 Billion PXF and USD400 Million PXF into the Combined PXF Facility, the approvals by all its lenders under the Amendment Agreement, the effectiveness of the Amendment Agreement, and various other announcements in relation to, amongst others, the Combined PXF Facility.

The Company is pleased to announce that the new 2017 Pre-export Finance Term Facility Agreement between, among others, the Company as borrower, ING Bank N.V. as facility agent and security agent, and the Lenders as defined therein for an amount of up to USD2,000,000,000 (“PXF 2017”), was signed by the Company on 24 May 2017. The key terms and conditions of the PXF 2017 are described below.

(a) Borrower

The Company.

(b) Guarantors

Each of PJSC “RUSAL Bratsk Aluminium Smelter”, JSC “RUSAL Krasnoyarsk Aluminium Smelter”, JSC “RUSAL Novokuznetsk Aluminium Smelter”, JSC “RUSAL Sayanogorsk Aluminium Smelter”, JSC “Siberian-Urals Aluminium Company”, RS International GmbH, RTI Limited, RUSAL Marketing GmbH, JSC “Russian Aluminium” and JSC “United Company RUSAL — Trading House” (each being a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) will provide a joint and several guarantee in respect of the Company’s obligations under the PXF 2017.

(c) Amount

USD 1.7 billion.

(d) Use of proceeds

The proceeds of the PXF 2017 will be used primarily for the purpose of refinancing the outstanding balance under the Combined PXF Facility. Any proceeds not used for refinancing the Combined PXF Facility shall be applied towards refinancing of other indebtedness of the Company or any other member of the Group.

(e) Interest

The aggregate of:

(i) 3.00% per annum; and

(ii) 3 month LIBOR (if the rate is less than zero, this shall be deemed to be zero).

(f) Final maturity date and repayment schedule

The final maturity date will fall on the 60th calendar month, and quarterly repayments will start from the 27th calendar month after utilisation.

(g) Covenant package

In view of the improved financial condition of the Company, the covenant package was revised and certain restrictions were removed, as described in more detail below.

For the purposes of calculating the leverage ratio (as defined in PXF 2017), in view of the security given over certain NN Shares securing the relevant indebtedness of the Group, the amount of such secured indebtedness (or, if lower, the value of the NN Shares securing such indebtedness) is excluded from the total net debt (as defined in PXF 2017). Consequently, the Group’s EBITDA is net of the impact of NN shareholding (i.e. excludes dividends paid on any of the NN Shares). The leverage ratio is, thus, tested on the basis of the Group’s core operations.

The dividend covenant was revised to allow the Company to pay dividends to its shareholders in an amount not exceeding 15% of the Group’s covenant EBITDA (as defined in PXF 2017, and includes for this purpose dividends paid on NN Shares) subject to certain conditions. This is in line with the dividend policy approved by the Board in August 2015. The key conditions of dividend payments include positive cash flow, a certain liquidity minimum being maintained, the leverage ratio on a pro forma basis being not more than 3:1 and no defaults outstanding or occurring as a result of dividend payments.

Certain components of the security package, including cash sweep, cash pooling arrangements, other additional restrictions and additional security implemented in 2014 were terminated.
