Each Guarantor accepts responsibility for the information contained in this Offering Memorandum relating to itself and to its Note Guarantee. To the best of the knowledge and belief of each Guarantor (each of which has taken all reasonable care to ensure that such is the case), the information contained in this Offering Memorandum relating to itself and its Note Guarantee is in accordance with the facts and does not omit anything likely to affect the import of such information. This Offering Memorandum does not constitute an offer of, or an invitation by or on behalf of the Issuer, FESCO, the Guarantors, the Joint Bookrunners (as defined in Plan of Distribution ) or the Trustee to subscribe for or purchase any Notes in any jurisdiction where it is unlawful to make such an offer or invitation. The distribution of this Offering Memorandum and the offering of the Notes (the Offering ) in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this Offering Memorandum comes are required by the Issuer, FESCO, the Guarantors, the Joint Bookrunners and the Trustee to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions. For a description of certain further restrictions on offers and sales of the Notes and distribution of this Offering Memorandum, see Plan of Distribution and Transfer Restrictions. No person is authorised to provide any information or to make any representation not contained in this Offering Memorandum and any information or representation not so contained must not be relied upon as having been authorised by or on behalf of the Issuer, FESCO, the Guarantors, the Joint Bookrunners or the Trustee. The delivery of this Offering Memorandum at any time does not imply that the information contained in it is correct as at any time subsequent to its date. Neither the delivery of this Offering Memorandum nor the Offering, sale or delivery of any Notes shall in any circumstances create any implication that there has been no adverse change, or any event reasonably likely to involve any adverse change, in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Issuer, the Group (as defined herein) or the Guarantors since the date of this Offering Memorandum. None of the Issuer, FESCO, the Guarantors, the Joint Bookrunners, the Trustee or any of its or their respective representatives or affiliates makes any representation to any offeree or purchaser of the Notes offered hereby regarding the legality of an investment by such offeree or purchaser under applicable legal, investment or similar laws. Each investor should consult with its own advisers as to the legal, tax, business, financial and related aspects of the purchase of the Notes. Prospective purchasers must comply with all laws that apply to them in any place in which they buy, offer or sell any Notes or possess this Offering Memorandum. Any consents or approvals that are needed in order to purchase any Notes must be obtained. The Issuer, FESCO, the Guarantors, the Joint Bookrunners and the Trustee are not responsible for compliance with these legal requirements. The appropriate characterisation of the Notes under various legal investment restrictions, and thus the ability of investors subject to these restrictions to purchase the Notes, is subject to significant interpretative uncertainties. No representation or warranty is made as to whether, or the extent to which, the Notes constitute a legal investment for investors whose investment authority is subject to legal restrictions, and investors should consult their legal advisers regarding such matters. No prospective investor should consider any information in this Offering Memorandum to be investment, legal, tax or other advice. Any investment in the Notes does not have the status of a bank deposit and is not within the scope of the deposit protection scheme operated by the Central Bank of Ireland (the Central Bank ). The Issuer is not and will not be regulated by the Central Bank as a result of issuing the Notes. Each potential investor in the Notes must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own circumstances. In particular, each potential investor should: (i) have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the Notes, the merits and risks of investing in the Notes and the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Offering Memorandum or any applicable supplement; (ii) have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its particular financial situation, an investment in the Notes and the impact the Notes will have on its overall investment portfolio; i

(iii) have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the Notes, including Notes with principal or interest or settlement amount or entitlement payable in one or more currencies, or where the currency for payments of principal or interest or settlement amount or entitlement is different from the potential investor s currency; (iv) understand thoroughly the terms of the Notes and be familiar with the behaviour of any relevant indices and financial markets; and (v) be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible scenarios for economic, interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks. The Notes are complex financial instruments. Sophisticated institutional investors generally do not purchase complex financial instruments as stand-alone investments. They purchase complex financial instruments as a way to reduce risk or enhance yield with an understood, measured, appropriate addition of risk to their overall portfolios. A potential investor should not invest in the Notes, which are complex financial instruments, unless it has the expertise (either alone or with a financial adviser) to evaluate how the Notes will perform under changing conditions, the resulting effects on the value of the Notes and the impact this investment will have on the potential investor s overall investment portfolio. In connection with the issue of the Notes, Goldman Sachs International (the Stabilising Manager ) (or any person acting on behalf of the Stabilising Manager) may over-allot Notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilising Manager (or any person acting on behalf of the Stabilising Manager) will undertake stabilisation action. Any stabilisation action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms of the offer of the Notes is made and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time and must be brought to an end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the Issue Date of the Notes and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the Notes. The contents of the websites or any other documents of FESCO or of any of its consolidated subsidiaries (FESCO, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the Group ) or the Guarantors do not form any part of this Offering Memorandum. No representation or warranty, express or implied, is made by the Joint Bookrunners, the Trustee or any of its or their affiliates or any person acting on their behalf as to the accuracy or completeness of the information set forth in this Offering Memorandum. Nothing contained in this Offering Memorandum is, or shall be relied upon as, a promise or representation, whether as to the past or the future. Each person receiving this Offering Memorandum acknowledges that such person has not relied on the Joint Bookrunners, the Trustee or any of its or their affiliates or any person acting on their behalf in connection with its investigation of the accuracy or completeness of such information or its investment decision. Each person contemplating making an investment in the Notes from time to time must make its own investigation and analysis of the creditworthiness of the Issuer, FESCO and the Guarantors and its own determination of the suitability of any such investment, with particular reference to its own investment objectives and experience, and any other factors which may be relevant to it in connection with such investment.

We include information in this Offering Memorandum regarding our Adjusted Revenue, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Cash and Cash Equivalents, Pro Forma Adjusted Net Interest-Bearing Debt, Pro Forma Adjusted Gross Interest-Bearing Debt, Pro Forma Adjusted Interest Expense and Adjusted Net Assets, which are not financial measures specifically defined under IFRS. See Selected Consolidated Financial and Other Data Other Financial Data (non-ifrs). These measures are unaudited, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and are not measurements under IFRS or other generally accepted accounting principles, and they should not be considered in isolation from, or as substitutes for, the information contained in the Financial Statements. For a reconciliation of Adjusted Revenue to revenue, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, see Selected Consolidated Financial and Other Data. Presentation of Financial Information on the Issuer and Guarantors The Issuer is a special purpose vehicle established for the purpose of raising capital through the issuance of debt securities. Because it was incorporated on 4 April 2013, it has not yet prepared any financial statements, and no financial statements of the Issuer are included in this Offering Memorandum. In addition, no separate financial statements of any of the Guarantors are included in this Offering Memorandum. The Financial Statements include both Subsidiary Guarantors and non-guarantor subsidiaries (the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries ). The Subsidiary Guarantors include the Partially-Owned Subsidiary Guarantors, which consist of the Port of Vladivostok, upon accession, in which FESCO directly and indirectly owns 95.577% of the shares, and TEK MetizTrans, in which FESCO indirectly owns 99.99% of the shares. The Subsidiary Guarantors (excluding VMTP) together generated EBITDA of U.S.$257 million, representing 104% of the Group s total consolidated EBITDA for the year ended 31 December 2012 and had net assets of U.S.$631 million, representing 41% of the Group s total consolidated net assets as at 31 December 2012. The Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries of FESCO (including, for this purpose, VMTP) together generated EBITDA of U.S.$35 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, representing 14.2% of the Group s total consolidated EBITDA, and had net assets of U.S.$834 million, representing 54% of the Group s total consolidated net assets as at 31 December 2012. The Subsidiary Guarantors (including VMTP) together generated EBITDA of U.S.$283 million, representing 115% of the Group s total consolidated EBITDA for the year ended 31 December 2012 and had net assets of U.S.$880 million, representing 57% of the Group s total consolidated net assets as at 31 December 2012. The Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries of FESCO (excluding, for this purpose, VMTP) together generated EBITDA of U.S.$9 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, representing 4% of the Group s total consolidated EBITDA, and had net assets of U.S.$585 million, representing 38% of the Group s total consolidated net assets as at 31 December 2012. There are no Subsidiary Guarantors which individually comprised greater than 20% of the EBITDA or net assets of the Group as of and for the year ended 31 December 2012, except the following: Limited Liability Company Firm Transgarant ( Transgarant ), which accounted for U.S.$105 million, or 42%, of the Group s EBITDA in 2012 and U.S.$286 million, or 19%, of the Group s net assets as of 31 December 2012; and 1

Closed Joint Stock Company Vladivostok Container Terminal ( VKT ), which accounted for U.S.$60 million, or 24%, of the Group s EBITDA in 2012 and U.S.$205 million, or 13%, of the Group s net assets as of 31 December 2012. Because FESCO itself is not an obligor on the Notes and its Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries (excluding, for this purpose, VMTP) represent approximately 38% of our total consolidated net assets, the Financial Statements may be of limited use in assessing the financial position and results of the obligors of the Notes.

CURRENCIES AND EXCHANGE RATES The following tables show, for the periods indicated, certain information regarding the exchange rate between the Rouble and the U.S. Dollar, based on the official exchange rate quoted by the Central Bank of Russia (the CBR ). These rates may differ from the actual rates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements and other financial information appearing in this Offering Memorandum. Roubles per U.S. Dollar Period High Low average (1) Period End Year 2012... 34.04 28.95 31.09 30.37 2011... 32.68 27.26 29.39 32.20 2010... 31.78 28.93 30.37 30.48 2009... 36.43 28.67 31.72 30.24 2008... 29.38 23.13 24.86 29.38 Month April 2013 (through 22 April 2013)... 31.72 30.88 31.31 31.46 March 2013... 31.08 30.51 30.80 31.08 February 2013... 30.62 29.93 30.16 30.62 January 2013... 30.42 30.03 30.26 30.03 (1) The average rates are calculated as the average of the daily exchange rates on each business day (which rate is announced by the CBR for each such business day) and on each non-business day (which rate is equal to the exchange rate on the previous business day). The exchange rate between the Rouble and the U.S. Dollar on 22 April 2013 was 31.46 Roubles per U.S.$1.00. The Rouble is generally not convertible outside Russia. A market exists within Russia for the conversion of Roubles into other currencies, but the limited availability of other currencies may tend to distort their values relative to the Rouble.

ENFORCEABILITY OF JUDGMENTS The Issuer s, FESCO s and Guarantors presence outside the United Kingdom and the United States may limit your legal recourse against the Issuer, FESCO and Guarantors. The Issuer is a company incorporated as a société anonyme under the laws of Luxembourg, FESCO is an open joint stock company incorporated under the laws of the Russian Federation and the Guarantors are incorporated under the laws of Russia, Ukraine or Cyprus. Substantially all of the Issuer s, FESCO s and Guarantors directors and executive officers named in this Offering Memorandum reside outside the United Kingdom and the United States. All or a substantial portion of FESCO s and the Guarantors assets and the assets of FESCO s and Guarantors officers and directors are located mainly in Russia, Ukraine or Cyprus. As a result, it may not be possible for you to: effect service of process within the United States or the United Kingdom upon the Issuer, FESCO or Guarantors or any of the Issuer s, FESCO s or Guarantors directors or executive officers named in this Offering Memorandum; or enforce, in the U.S. or English courts, judgments obtained outside the U.S. or English courts against the Issuer, FESCO or Guarantors or any of the Issuer s, FESCO s or Guarantors directors and executive officers named in this Offering Memorandum in any action, including actions under the civil liability provisions of the U.S. securities laws or any state or territory of the United States. In addition, it may be difficult for you to enforce, in original actions brought in courts in jurisdictions located outside the United States or the United Kingdom, liabilities predicated upon the U.S. securities laws or upon English laws. Judgments rendered by a court in any jurisdiction outside the Russian Federation will be generally recognised by courts in the Russian Federation if an international treaty providing for the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil cases exists between the Russian Federation and the country where the judgment is rendered and/or a federal law is adopted in the Russian Federation that provides for the recognition and enforcement of foreign court judgments. No such treaty for the reciprocal enforcement of foreign court judgments in civil and commercial matters exists between the Russian Federation and certain jurisdictions (including the United Kingdom and the United States), and no relevant federal law on enforcement of foreign court judgments has been adopted in the Russian Federation. In the absence of an applicable treaty, enforcement of a final judgment rendered by a foreign court may still be recognised by a Russian court on the basis of reciprocity, if courts of the country where the foreign judgment is rendered have previously enforced judgments issued by Russian courts. While Russian courts have recently recognised and enforced English court judgments on these grounds, the existence of reciprocity must be established at the time the recognition and enforcement of a foreign judgment is sought, and it is not possible to predict whether a Russian court will in the future recognise and enforce on the basis of reciprocity a judgment issued by a foreign court, including an English court. Even if an applicable international treaty is in effect or a foreign judgment might otherwise be recognised and enforced on the basis of reciprocity, the recognition and enforcement of a foreign judgment will in all events be subject to exceptions and limitations provided for in Russian law. For example, a Russian court may refuse to recognise or enforce a foreign judgment if its recognition or enforcement would contradict Russian public policy. The Notes, the Trust Deeds, the Guarantees and the Paying Agency Agreements (as defined herein) each provide that any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them will be governed by English law and will provide for disputes, controversies and causes of action brought by any party thereto to be settled by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the LCIA (formerly the London Court of International Arbitration) (the LCIA Rules ). The place of such arbitration shall be London, England. The Russian Federation and the United Kingdom are parties to the United Nations (New York) Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (the New York Convention ). Consequently, Russian courts should generally recognise and enforce in the Russian Federation an arbitral award from an arbitral tribunal in the United Kingdom on the basis of the rules of the New York Convention (subject to qualifications provided for in the New York Convention and compliance with Russian procedural regulations and other procedures and requirements established by Russian legislation). 4

The Arbitrazh Procedural Code of the Russian Federation (the Arbitrazh Procedural Code ) sets out the procedure for the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards by Russian courts. The Arbitrazh Procedural Code also contains an exhaustive list of grounds for the refusal of recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards by Russian courts, which grounds are broadly similar to those provided by the New York Convention. The Arbitrazh Procedural Code and other Russian procedural legislation could change, and other grounds for Russian courts to refuse the recognition and enforcement of foreign courts judgments and foreign arbitral awards could arise in the future. In practice, reliance upon international treaties may meet with resistance or a lack of understanding on the part of a Russian court or other officials, thereby introducing delay and unpredictability into the process of enforcing any foreign judgment or any foreign arbitral award in the Russian Federation. Furthermore, any arbitral award pursuant to arbitration proceedings in accordance with the LCIA Rules and the application of English law to the relevant documents and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them may be limited by the mandatory provisions of Russian laws relating to the exclusive jurisdiction of Russian courts and the application of Russian laws with respect to bankruptcy, winding up or liquidation of Russian companies. All above considerations regarding the enforceability of foreign court judgments in the Russian Federation essentially also apply to enforceability of the same in Ukraine. For description of the risks relating to your ability to enforce court judgments against the Issuer, FESCO or Guarantors or any of their directors and executive officers, see Risk Factors Risks Relating to Russia The difficulty of enforcing court decisions and the discretion of state authorities in enforcing claims could prevent investors in the Notes from obtaining effective redress in court proceedings. 5
