(MAR), transmitted by EQS Group.

PRESS RELEASE 
Public Joint Stock Company «Mining and Metallurgical Company «NORILSK NICKEL» (PJSC "MMC "Norilsk Nickel", "Nornickel" 
or the "Company") 
 
NORNICKEL BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS FINAL DIVIDEND FOR FY 2020 
Moscow, April 9, 2021 - The Nornickel Board of Directors, the world's largest producer of palladium and high-grade 
nickel and a major producer of platinum and copper, has backed the management's proposal to minimize the dividends for 
2020. 
The total amount of reduced dividends distributed for 2020 is based on 50% of 2020 IFRS free cash flow. Therefore, the 
final dividend recommendation for 2020 has been calculated as 50% of 2020 IFRS free cash flow (50% of approximately USD 
6.6 bn) less 9 months 2020 interim dividend of USD 1.2 bn already paid. 
The Board of Directors has recommended for the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) approval the final dividend 
for the financial year 2020 in the amount of RUB 1,021.22 per ordinary share (approximately USD 13.25 at the RUB/USD 
exchange rate set by the Russian Central Bank as of April 9, 2021). The final dividend will amount to a total of RUB 
161.6 bn (approximately USD 2.096 bn at the RUB/USD exchange rate set by the Russian Central Bank as of April 9, 2021). 
The Board of Directors has set the AGM date on May 19, 2021, the AGM record date on April 26, 2021 and the dividend 
record date on June 1, 2021. 
The Company also reports that its major shareholders, Interros, UC RUSAL and Crispian, have reached a preliminary 
agreement to support and propose to Nornickel's Board of Directors a buyback of Nornickel's shares for a total amount 
of approximately USD 2 bn before the end of 2021. The goal of the share buyback is to support the company's market 
capitalization. The major shareholders consider the buyback expedient when the company is fundamentally undervalued by 
the market and as a preparation for the launch of a long-term employee compensation program. It is expected that 0.5% 
of Nornickel's shares outstanding will be allocated for the employee compensation program. 
The Chairman of the Board, Mr Gareth Penny commented: "The Board of Directors welcomes the major shareholders reaching 
an agreement on such a principal matter as cash returns to shareholders. We consider this as an important move to 
support Nornickel's financial stability during the active phase of its new investment cycle. Launching a share buyback 
when the company's shares are under pressure is a commonly used instrument to support their investment appeal. We 
believe that challenges, which Nornickel has faced recently, are temporary and that the buyback proposal timing makes 
full sense." 
The Board of Directors recommends the following nominees to the Board of Directors and the Audit Commission for the AGM 
vote. 
The nominees to the Board of Directors are as follows: 
 - Alexey Bashkirov, Managing Director, LLC Winter Capital Advisors 
 - Evgeny Shvarts, Lead researcher at the Department of Physical Geography and Environmental Management Problems of

Zeitenwende! 3 Uranaktien vor der Neubewertung
Ende Mai leitete US-Präsident Donald Trump mit der Unterzeichnung mehrerer Dekrete eine weitreichende Wende in der amerikanischen Energiepolitik ein. Im Fokus: der beschleunigte Ausbau der Kernenergie.
