PART II - INSTRUCTIONS FOR FILING CLAIM FORM
1.
It is important that you completely read and understand the Notice and the Plan of Allocation included in the Notice. The
Notice and the Plan of Allocation describe the manner in which the Distribution Fund will be distributed. The Notice also contains
the definitions of many of the defined terms (which are indicated by initial capital letters) used in this Claim Form. By signing and
submitting this Claim Form, you will be certifying that you have read the Notice, including the terms of the Release provided in this
document.
2.
TO BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE A DISTRIBUTION FROM THE DISTRIBUTION FUND YOU MUST COMPLETE AND
SUBMIT A CLAIM FORM, ALONG WITH THE NECESSARY SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION, TO THE YUKOS DISTRIBUTION
AGENT BY FIRST CLASS MAIL WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR INTERNATIONAL PRIORITY MAIL OUTSIDE THE UNITED
STATES, SO THAT IT IS RECEIVED BY MAY 30, 2016. YOUR CLAIM FORM MUST BE ADDRESSED AS FOLLOWS:
Yukos Claims Administration
c/o GCG
P.O. Box 9601
Dublin, OH 43017-4901
USA
YOU MAY ALSO FILE A CLAIM ONLINE THROUGH THE ADMINISTRATION WEBSITE WWW.YUKOSCLAIMS.COM BY MAY
30, 2016.
3.
This Claim Form is directed to: All Persons who purchased, acquired or held Yukos Ordinary Shares or Yukos American
Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) from July 2, 2003 through and including November 28, 2007 (the “Recovery Period”). Former
subsidiaries of Yukos Oil Company are excluded from participation (“Excluded Parties”). Pre-Approved Claimants do not need to
file a claim in order to receive a distribution.
4.
Submission of this Claim Form does not ensure that you will share in the proceeds of the Distribution Fund. Distribution
will be governed by the Plan of Allocation (as set forth in the Notice).
5.
Use Part III of this Claim Form to supply all required details of your transactions and holdings of Yukos Ordinary Shares
and ADRs. On the schedules below, please provide all of the information requested with respect to all of your holdings, purchases,
acquisitions and sales of Yukos Ordinary Shares and ADRs, whether such transactions resulted in a profit or a loss. Failure to
report all transactions during the requested periods may result in the rejection of your claim.
6.
You are required to submit genuine and sufficient documentation for all of your transaction(s) in and holdings of Yukos
Ordinary Shares and ADRs, as requested in Part III of this Claim Form. Documentation may consist of (i) broker confirmation
slips that list the security name, name of the beneficial owner, type of transaction, the date of the transaction and the number of
shares, OR (ii) monthly statements that detail all account activity within a month. THE DISTRIBUTION AGENT DOES NOT HAVE
INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR INVESTMENTS IN YUKOS ORDINARY SHARES OR ADRs. IF SUCH DOCUMENTS ARE NOT
IN YOUR POSSESSION, PLEASE OBTAIN COPIES OR EQUIVALENT CONTEMPORANEOUS DOCUMENTS FROM YOUR
BROKER. FAILURE TO SUPPLY THIS DOCUMENTATION COULD DELAY VERIFICATION OF YOUR CLAIM OR COULD
RESULT IN REJECTION OF YOUR CLAIM. DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS. Please keep a copy of all documents that
you send to the Distribution Agent.
7.
Separate Claim Forms should be submitted for each legal entity that owned Yukos Ordinary Shares or ADRs (e.g., a claim
from joint owners should not include separate transactions of just one of the joint owners, and an individual should not combine his
or her retirement account transactions with transactions made solely in the individual’s name). Conversely, a single Claim Form
should be submitted on behalf of one legal entity including all transactions made by that entity on one Claim Form, no matter how
many separate accounts that entity has (e.g., a corporation with multiple brokerage accounts should include all transactions made
in all accounts on one Claim Form).
8.
All joint beneficial owners or their authorized representative must complete and sign this Claim Form. If you purchased,
acquired or held Yukos Securities in your name, you are the beneficial owner as well as the record owner. If, however, your Yukos
Ordinary Shares or ADRs were registered in the name of a third party, such as a nominee or brokerage firm, you are the beneficial
owner of the stock, but the third party is the record owner.

PART II - INSTRUCTIONS FOR FILING CLAIM FORM (CONTINUED)
9.
Agents, executors, administrators, guardians, and trustees must complete and sign the Claim Form on behalf of persons
represented by them, and they must:
(a) expressly state the capacity in which they are acting;
(b) identify the name, account number, address and telephone number of the beneficial owner (or other person or entity
on whose behalf they are acting) of the Yukos Ordinary Shares or ADRs; and
(c) furnish evidence of their authority to bind the person or entity on whose behalf they are acting. (Authority to complete
and sign a Claim Form cannot be established by stockbrokers demonstrating only that they have discretionary authority to trade
stock in another person’s accounts.)
10.
By submitting a signed Claim Form, you will be attesting to the truth of the statements contained therein and the
genuineness of the documents attached thereto. The making of false statements, or the submission of forged or fraudulent
documentation, will result in the rejection of your claim and may subject you to other penalties.
11.
