Reference ‘f5.4’ means ‘the form its number and number of section (if applicable)’. Reference ‘cl.2.1’ means ‘notes number of section and subsection’. Several references are separated by ‘;’ sign.The financial statements are presented in the format approved by Order No 66n of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation dated July 2 2010. However based on the rationality requirement data in Form 5 are given with turnover for the current year.The Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Accounting Policy of the Company for 2023 as approved by Order No OKR-22-P082 dated December 30 2023 prepared subject to the requirements of Federal Law No 402-FZ ‘On Accounting’ dated December 6 2011 and Regulations for Maintenance of Accounting Records and the Preparation of Accounting Statements in the Russian Federation other regulatory accounting documents.Values of certain assets liabilities income expenses and business operations are presented in the Accounting Statements and are disclosed separately if they are material and if without knowing the same by interested users assessment of the current financial standing of the Company and financial results of its operations is impossible. Material indicators include those representing over 5% of the total relevant indicators of assets liabilities income and expenses. Going concern These accounting (financial) statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue in the foreseeable future as a going concern. The Company has a significant number of transactions with related parties under common control and the business of the Company largely depends on the business of RUSAL Group which includes the Company.The bans and sanctions imposed by a number of countries in March 2022 had an impact on the availability or purchase prices of raw materials and supplies for RUSAL Group. Logistics pressures led to a revision of supply and sales chains and an increase in transportation costs. If geopolitical tensions persist or worsen significantly which implies the loss by RUSAL Group of significant parts of foreign markets that cannot be reallocated to new markets it may affect the business financial position perspectives and performance of RUSAL Group and consequently have a negative impact on the Company.The above-mentioned facts as well as the volatility of commodity markets stock currency markets and interest rates create significant uncertainty in the ability of RUSAL Group and the Company to fulfil their financial obligations in a timely manner and continue as a going concern. The management constantly assesses current conditions and prepares forecasts taking into account different scenarios. The management of RUSAL Group expect that prices in the global commodity markets will pick up which will improve the operating results. RUSAL Group also revises its supply and sales chains ensures the best leverage ratios seeks solutions to logistics pressures and ways to service its obligations in order to quickly adapt to economic changes to ensure the activities of the whole RUSAL Group and the Company individually.? 38 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS As of the date of approval of these accounting (financial) statements the management has no intention to liquidate the Company.Uncertainty of estimates Below are the basic assumptions regarding future events as well as other sources of estimation uncertainties at the reporting date which carry a significant risk of significant adjustments necessary to be made to the book value of assets and liabilities during the next reporting year: * Provision for impairment of rights to use assets; * Provision for bad debts; * Provision for future payment of vacations unused as of the reporting date; * Provision for the performance-based bonus payment; * Provision for impairment of financial investments; * Other similar provisions created in connection with the contingency consequences.Foreign currency transactions Assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the procedure for conversion of such assets and liabilities to the currency of the Russian Federation i.e. roubles are accounted for in accordance with the Russian Accounting Standard (RAS) 3/2006 ‘Accounting for Assets and Liabilities Denominated in a Foreign Currency’.

In the profit and loss statement and the cash flow statement such transactions are recorded according to the exchange rate as of the transaction date.Exchange rate differences are recognised as profits and losses in other income and expenses for the period when they occur.As of December 31 2023 the exchange rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation was RUB 89.6883 per USD 1 RUB 99.1919 per EUR 1 RUB 12.5762 per CNY 1 RUB 24.4216 per AED 1.

Procedure for accounting of items as fixed assets Fixed assets include land plots buildings machines equipment vehicles and other similar assets used as tools during production performance of works or provision of services or to manage the Company during a period exceeding 12 months.Actually operated real estate assets with completed capital investments and executed respective primary accounting records for acceptance and transfer are recognised as fixed assets irrespective of state registration or filing documents for state registration and are depreciated in accordance with the standard procedure.Fixed assets are not revaluated. 2.2.3. Fixed assets depreciation Depreciation is accrued from the 1st day of the month following the month of commissioning of specific fixed assets. Depreciation is accrued using the straight-line method.The annual amount of depreciation charges is determined on the basis of the historical or replacement value of a fixed assets item and the depreciation rate determined on the basis of the established useful life.The useful life of purchased fixed assets is determined on the basis of classification of depreciation groups established by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No 1 ‘On Classification of Fixed Assets Included in Depreciation Groups’ dated January 1 2002.Information on the established useful life of fixed assets (by main groups): Group of fixed assets Useful life (years) Machinery and equipment 1 to 7 years Other 1 to 7 years 2.2.4.

Impairment of non-current assets Until 2022 the Company established a provision for impairment of certain tangible assets and capital investments that were not in use (including those under conservation) equivalent to their book value.Information about the balance of such provision is reflected in section 2 of Form 5.Starting from the statements for 2022 the Company determines whether there are any evidence of possible impairment of the asset. If there are such evidences or if annual impairment testing of an asset is required the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the higher of its fair value less the cost of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. If the balance sheet value of an asset or a cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is deemed to be impaired and is written off to the recoverable amount.When assessing value in use estimated future cash flows are discounted to the present value at a discount rate that reflects the current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks inherent in the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified the appropriate valuation model is used.These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples quoted prices or other available fair value indicators.The Company bases its impairment calculation on current plans and forecast calculations which are prepared separately for each cash-generating unit to which individual assets are allocated. These plans and forecast calculations generally cover a period of five years. A long-term growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the fifth year.The calculation of the fair value less costs of disposal is based on available data from binding sale transactions in an arm’s length transaction of similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for disposing of the asset.? 42 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model. Cash flows are extracted from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities for which the Company has no obligations yet or significant investments in the future that will improve the results of the assets of the cash-generating unit being tested for impairment. The recoverable amount is mostly sensitive to the discount rate used in the discounted cash flow model as well as to the expected cash inflows and growth rates used for extrapolation purposes.Impairment losses from ongoing operations are recognised in the statement of financial results as part of other expenses.At each reporting date the Company determines whether there are any indications that previously recognised impairment losses of the asset no longer exist or have decreased. If any such indication exists the Company calculates the recoverable amount of the asset or cash-generating unit.Previously recognised impairment losses are reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. This reversal is limited so that balance sheet value does not exceed its recoverable amount and may not exceed its balance sheet value net of depreciation at which the asset would have been recognised if no impairment loss had been recognised in previous years. Such a reversal of value is recognised in the statement of financial results.In 2022 and 2023 the Company found no indications of impairment of its assets.The Company identifies any fixed asset right-to-use asset intangible asset and capital investment recorded on the Company’s balance sheet as a cash-generating unit (hereinafter referred to as the CGU). 2.2.6. Other use of fixed assets Data in Section 1.4 of Form 5 are presented at initial (replacement) cost. As of December 31 2023 December 31 2022 and December 31 2021 there are no pledged fixed assets. 2.2.7. Right-of-use assets Starting from January 1 2022 the Company accounts for lease contracts in accordance with FAS 25/2018 ‘Accounting for Leases’. At the start of 2022 for each lease contract the lessee recognised the right to use the asset and lease obligations in lump sum. For these purposes it is assumed that the value of the right-of-use asset is equal to its fair value and the value of the lease obligation is equal to the present value of outstanding lease payments discounted using the rate at which the lessee raised or could raise borrowed funds on terms comparable to the lease agreement (clause 50 of Federal Accounting Standard 25/2018).? 43 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS If loans and borrowings comparable to the terms of the lease agreement are not available at the lease commencement date or are received earlier than 6 months before the lease commencement date the rate as per the data of the Russian Central Bank available at the time of acceptance and transfer of the leased asset is used.At the time of entering into a lease contract the Company assesses whether the contract is a lease or contains the lease elements listed in clause 5 of Federal Accounting Standard 25/2018 ‘Accounting for Leases’.The Company applies a unified approach to the recognition and measurement of all leases except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognises the leased asset as of the date when the leased asset is provided as the right-of-use asset with simultaneous recognition of the lease obligation.The Company applies a unified accounting policy to the right-of-use asset and to similar use assets. The right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at initial cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses adjusted for revaluation of lease obligations. The rights-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis. The useful life of the right-of-use asset should not exceed the lease term unless it is expected that the lessee will acquire ownership of the leased item.The right-of-use assets under lease contracts signed after January 1 2022 is recognised at the actual cost which includes: a) the amount of the initial measurement of the lease obligation; b) lease payments made on or before the date the lease item was provided; c) the lessee’s expenses related to receiving the leased item and preparing it for its intended use; d) the amount of the provision to be covered by the lessee particularly for dismantling moving the leased item restoring the environment and restoring the leased item to the condition required by the lease contract if the lessee incurs such an obligation upon receipt of the leased item.The lease obligation is initially measured as the present value of future lease payments as of the date of such measurement.The Company presents its lease obligations as part of Borrowings under lines 1411 1511 in Form 1. Accrued interest on lease obligations is included in line 2330 ‘Interest payable’ in Form 2.As of December 31 2023 the lease obligation of RUB 158525000 (December 31 2022: RUB 120028000 January 1 2022: RUB 4764000) represents lease obligations to related parties. ? 44 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS 2.3.

Insurance contributions to the Social Fund of the Russian Federation for the remuneration of the key management personnel amount to RUB 139080000 (2022: RUB 111555000). 4 Provisions Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets In 2023 the ongoing conflict involving Ukraine and the subsequent escalation of geopolitical tensions had an impact on the economy of the Russian Federation. During the conflict period including during 2023 the European Union the United States and several other countries have imposed new sanctions on various Russian state-owned and commercial organisations including banks individuals and certain economic sectors as well as restrictions on certain types of transactions such as blocking funds on foreign bank accounts and blocking payments against Eurobonds of the Russian Federation and Russian company. Several international companies have announced suspension of their operations in Russia or cessation of product supplies to Russia. This has led to increased volatility in the stock and currency markets. The Russian Federation introduced temporary economic restrictive measures including a ban on the provision of loans in a foreign currency by residents to non-residents crediting of foreign currency by residents to their accounts with foreign banks restrictions on security payments to foreign investors and restrictions on entering into transactions with persons from a number of foreign states.The Company continues evaluating the effects of these events and changes in the micro- and macroeconomic situation on its operations financial standing and financial results.Taxes and Pending Legal Proceedings In the opinion of the management the relevant legislative provisions have been interpreted correctly by the management and it is highly probable that the Company will maintain its position in terms of the tax currency and customs laws as of December 31 2023.Transfer pricing The Russian tax authorities have the right to charge additional tax and penalties on the basis of the rules established by the transfer pricing (TP) laws if the price/profitability in controlled transactions differs from the market level. The list of transactions controlled for transfer pricing purposes mainly includes transactions between related parties.Starting from January 1 2019 transfer pricing control was abolished for a significant part of domestic transactions and the threshold for cross-border transactions entered into with the same dependent counterparty which are subject to tax price control was set to RUB 120 mln starting from January 1 2022.? 69 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In addition transfer pricing control is exercised with respect to certain types of transactions between independent organisations for example in transactions with companies located in low-tax jurisdictions as well as in foreign trade transactions related to the global trade commodities4 (if the turnover threshold in such transactions exceeds RUB 120 mln). At the same time the mechanism of counter-adjustment of tax liabilities in case of additional tax charges on the grounds related to violation of transfer pricing rules as well as voluntary corresponding adjustments of transfer prices and as a result tax liabilities can be used subject to compliance with certain legal requirements and only with respect to transactions which are recognised as controlled.In addition in 2023 it became possible to recognise loss transactions as compliant with market terms: * transactions that are impacted by sanctions and are focused on product export; * transactions are recognised as market transactions both for the purposes of tax control of prices and for the conclusion of a Pricing Agreement.In intra-group transactions that are not controlled for transfer pricing since 2019 the applied transfer prices may still be inspected by the territorial tax authorities outside the transfer pricing audits to identify obtained unreasonable tax benefits and transfer pricing methods may be used to determine the amount of additional tax charges.Since January 1 2022 the range of threshold interest rates on debt obligations has been extended for the period from January 1 2022 to December 31 2023. This amendment in particular expands the list of controlled debt obligations for which no separate analysis in terms of transfer pricing is required in accordance with the provisions of Section V.1 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.In 2023 the Company determined its tax liabilities arising from controlled transactions based on actual transaction prices.The federal executive body authorised to control and supervise taxes and levies may inspect prices / profitability in controlled transactions and in case of disagreement with the prices applied by the Company in these transactions charge additional tax if the Company cannot justify the market pricing in these transactions by providing transfer pricing documentation (national documentation) that meets the requirements of the laws. 4 Since January 1 2022 irrespective of the date of signing the relevant agreement the conditions for recognising foreign trade transactions with commodities that are the main export products of the Russian Federation (including oil ferrous metals non-ferrous metals mineral fertilisers precious stones and metals) as controlled transactions have changed.? 70 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS 5 Material Events After the Reporting Date In January 2024 the Company acquired 79.9951% of shares in Bauxite Timana JSC from a related party with the payment under the deal settled in cash in December 2023.

In this regard various risks arise that can significantly affect the financial standing and financial performance of the Company. The main risks that arise during the Company’s operations are described below.Risk management mechanism The Company’s management monitors the process of managing the above-mentioned risks in order to minimise possible adverse consequences for the financial standing and financial performance of the Company.The Chief Executive Officer of the Company analyses and approves the policy for managing the risks disclosed below.Industry-specific risks The main industry-specific risks of the Company are related to the possible deterioration of the general situation in the aluminium industry. The most substantial of key factors adversely affecting the situation are: * negative change in world prices for aluminium; * increase in electricity prices; * increase in prices for the main raw materials; * increase in the share of transport component in prime costs of the products first and foremost increase in tariffs for railway transportation of end products and the main types of raw materials.The Company takes all necessary steps to minimise the said risks. It performs continuous analysis monitoring and forecasting of price movement taking into account implementation of trading policy (execution of long-term contracts). 6.1. Financial risks In the course of its business the Company faces the following financial risks: * market risk (risk of interest rate changes negative changes in foreign exchange rates risk of changes in raw material prices); ? 72 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS * credit risk; * liquidity risk.Interest rate risk The risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s debt liabilities with floating interest rates.The Company’s Management controls interest expenses by tracking changes in interest rates on borrowed loans and borrowings refinancing the loan portfolio in a timely manner if necessary and using other financial instruments.Currency risk The company is subject to currency risk due to its engagement in borrowing and lending operations in currencies other than the rouble. The primary currency risk arises from operations conducted in US dollars Chinese yuan EURO and UAE dirhams. The loans and borrowings are generally in the same currency as the cash flows generated from lending activities. This approach allows for economic hedging without the need for derivative instruments. For other monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies the Company takes all necessary steps to ensure that the risk-exposed position does not exceed the acceptable level. To that effect it conducts where applicable foreign currency buying and selling operations at spot rates to rectify short-term imbalances.Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that the Company will incur financial losses from counterparties’ failure to fulfil their obligations in respect of the borrowed funds provided to them or under a client agreement. The Company is exposed to credit risk associated with its operations (primarily with respect to trade receivables) and financial activities including deposits with banks.The management of credit risk associated with customers is carried out in line with policies procedures and control system adopted by the Company to manage customer-related credit risk. The credit quality of the customer is considered high as they are predominantly related parties.The Company assesses risk concentration with respect to trade receivables as low since its customers are related parties and are controlled by the Group’s management. Clients are located in multiple jurisdictions operate in multiple industries and to a large extent in independent markets.The Company provides loans to related parties (see section 3 of the Notes). The credit risk associated with the balances on accounts with banks and financial institutions is managed in accordance with the Company’s policy.? 73 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the balance sheet value of the following balance sheet items: Item Line No Long-term financial investments 1170 Accounts receivable 1230 Short-term financial investments 1240 Cash and cash equivalents 1250 Liquidity risk The liquidity risk is associated with the Company’s ability to timely and fully repay its financial liabilities as of the reporting date: accounts payable to suppliers and contractors debts to creditors on loans and borrowings received (including in the form of bonds).The liquidity risk is analysed and managed at the level of UC RUSAL. The Company has analysed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded that it is low.Currently the Company believes that it has sufficient access to the sources of financing as well as that it has both utilised and unutilised credit resources that will meet the expected needs for the borrowing. 6.2. Other risks Legal risks Legal risks which can affect the Company’s business include risks driven by the following factors: * changes in tax law; * changes in securities and corporate law; * changes in customs regulations and duties in currency exchange regulation; * possible tightening of environmental legislation requirements or changes in practice of their application; * changes in court practice.To mitigate the said risks the Company monitors trends in regional and all-Russian law enforcement practice analyses and evaluates legislative initiatives and immediately responds to changes in legislation.? 74 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Tax risks Russian tax and customs legislation is subject to varying interpretations and changes which can occur frequently. The interpretation by the Company’s management of the legislative provisions in relation to the transactions and activities of the Company may be disputed by the regional or federal authorities.In 2023 the main changes are related to the current geopolitical situation which is results primarily from the economic sanctions against Russia imposed by a number of foreign governments.These events may materially affect the activities of Russian entities in various sectors of the economy.Changes in the geopolitical situation imply changes in tax customs and other types of laws. In particular the main changes in the tax law affected the application of transfer pricing controlled foreign companies procedure for applying tax benefits capital amnesty taxation of intellectual property investment and other tax aspects.In 2023 the Russian tax authorities adopted arrangements against tax evasion using low-tax jurisdictions and aggressive tax planning structures. In particular the use of any benefits under tax treaties (in particular from the point of view of the beneficial owner concept and the Multilateral Convention to Implement Tax Treaty Related Measures to Prevent Base Erosion and Profit Shifting) cross-border structures related to intra-group financing licensing and provision of services as well as the concept of tax residency and permanent establishment both in Russia and abroad are especially worth noticing.The Russian tax authorities continue to pay close attention to the transactions of the Russian companies with the foreign companies of the Group to analyse transactions in detail for their economic feasibility and transparent documentary exposure using various sources of information (documents received from the taxpayer interrogations of witnesses and counterparties publicly available data sources analysis of business purpose testing etc.).The Russian tax authorities continue to cooperate with the tax authorities of the foreign countries within the scope of the international exchange of tax information which makes the activities of the companies on an international scale more transparent and requiring detailed study with regards to the confirmation of the economic purpose of the organisation and operation of the international structure within the scope of the tax control procedures. In 2023 such cooperation efforts with many countries may be complicated due to the geopolitical situation however it is reasonable to assume that the in the future tax authorities may get access to information about the foreign activities of the companies.Such changes as well as the recent trends in the application and interpretation of certain provisions of the Russian tax laws indicate that the tax authorities may take a more rigorous position when interpreting the laws and implementing monitoring activities. As a consequence the tax authorities may raise claims in respect of those transactions and approaches to the application of laws that were previously left unclaimed. As a result significant amounts of taxes fines and penalties may ? 75 ?APPENDIX I ANNUAL ACCOUNTING (FINANCIAL) STATEMENTS OF UC RUSAL IPJSC FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH RUSSIAN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS be accrued. The amounts of claims in the possible but not filed actions may not be determined and the probability of an unfavourable outcome may not be assessed. The tax audits may cover three calendar years of the activity immediately preceding the year of the audit. Under certain conditions the earlier tax periods may be subject to the audit.In the opinion of the management the relevant legislative provisions have been interpreted correctly by the management and it is highly probable that the Company will maintain its position in terms of tax currency and customs laws as of December 31 2023.Country and regional risks The Company carries out its primary activities in the North-Western Federal District of Russia which is characterised by the risks associated with the political and economic situation in the country as a whole.Currently the political situation in the country is relatively unstable due to the sanctions imposed against Russia by some countries the general geopolitical situation in the country as well as the fluctuations in crude oil prices. Therefore it has a negative impact on the Russian economy as a whole. In particular it is reflected in the instability of the Russian rouble and the need for the economic tax political and other reforms.In the event of a negative impact of the change in the situation in the country or in a region of the Russian Federation in which the Company operates the Company will take all reasonable measures to reduce the negative effects on the financial standing and financial performance of the Company.The risks associated with the geographical features of the region in which the Company operates including the increased risk of natural disasters the possible termination of transport communication due to the remoteness and inaccessibility are estimated as insignificant.Reputational risks The Company’s management believes that at present there are no evidences that could have a significant negative impact on reducing the number of its buyers (customers) due to a negative perception of the quality of products (works services) produced and sold by the Company compliance with the terms of delivery of products performance of works (services) as well as the participation of the Company in any price-fixing agreement. Accordingly reputational risks are assessed by the Company as insignificant.Chief Executive Officer E.
