MECHEL REPORTS CHANGES IN MANAGEMENT
Moscow, Russia — March 17, 2016 – Mechel OAO (NYSE: MTL, MOEX: MTLR), a leading
Russian mining and metals company, reports that Alexey Ivanushkin is leaving his
post of Mechel OAO’s First Deputy Chief Executive Officer.
The post of the company’s First Deputy Chief Executive Officer will be
discontinued and its functions redistributed among other management board
members.
“Alexey Ivanushkin has been working for Mechel since its founding day. In
different times, he was in charge of the most critical issues — preparing for
IPO, running steel and ferroalloy assets, managing mergers and acquisitions. I
am sincerely grateful to him for his immense contribution to Mechel’s
development and I respect his decision to leave the company after completing the
hardest part of negotiations with lender banks on our debt restructuring to
pursue his own projects. Alexey Ivanushkin will continue working in the
company’s Board of Directors for several months more to ensure smooth transition
of managerial powers and credentials,” Mechel OAO’s Chief Executive Officer Oleg
Korzhov noted.
Prior to his appointment as Mechel OAO’s First Deputy Chief Executive Officer in
2014, Alexey G. Ivanushkin has been working as the Chief Executive Officer of
Oriel Resources Ltd (part of Mechel Group) from 2009 to 2014. He served as
Mechel’s Chief Operating Officer from 2004 to 2009. From 2003 to 2004 Mr.
Ivanushkin held the position of Mechel Steel Group OAO Chief Executive Officer.
From 1999 to 2002 Mr. Ivanushkin served as the Chief Executive Officer of
Chelyabinsk Metallurgical Plant. From 1993 to 1999 he was employed as the
Director of the Department of Ferrous Metals and Ferroalloys in the Moscow
office of Glencore International AG.
Mr. Ivanushkin has a degree in economics and international relations from the
Moscow State University of International Relations (MGIMO).
