Liability Insurance of Members of the Board of Directors<br />
and the Management Committee<br />
OAO <strong>Gazprom</strong> maintains liability insurance for members of its Board of Directors (including<br />
independent directors but excluding directors who hold public office) and the Management Committee.<br />
The insurance covers damages to shareholders, lenders or other persons resulting from<br />
unintentional wrongful acts (omission) by policyholders in their management roles.<br />
An insurance agreement with a single limit of indemnity covers the following risks:<br />
— third-party claims against members of the Board of Directors and Management Committee<br />
for damages resulting from unintentional wrongful acts (omission) of policyholders in their<br />
management roles;<br />
— third-party claims against OAO <strong>Gazprom</strong> for damages resulting from unintentional wrongful<br />
acts (omission) of members of the Board of Directors and the Management Committee<br />
in their management roles (including both claims related to OAO <strong>Gazprom</strong>’s securities and<br />
claims initially instituted against members of the Board of Directors or the Management<br />
Committee).<br />
Single limit of indemnity consists of two parts: part 1 provides insurance with the applicable<br />
law other than Russian law, covers all countries and offers most beneficial terms for<br />
OAO <strong>Gazprom</strong> and members of the Board of Directors and the Management Committee;<br />
part 2 provides insurance under Russian law and as close as possible (to the extent permitted by<br />
the legal framework of the Russian Federation) to the insurance terms of part 1.<br />
In 2014, insurance premiums paid under an insurance agreement were USD 1.57mm, while<br />
the coverage amount was USD 100mm.<br />
The insurance coverage under an agreement for liability insurance of members of the Board<br />
of Directors and the Management Committee is in line with international insurance standards<br />
measured by risks insured and indemnity limits.<br />
