MECHEL REPORTS MANAGEMENT CHANGE

Moscow, Russia — December 23, 2015 – Mechel OAO (MICEX: MTLR, NYSE: MTL), one of
the leading Russian mining and metals companies, reports the appointment of
Natalia Trubkina as the company’s human resources director. Prior to her
appointment, she headed the human resources department of the Group’s steel
division.
In her new post, Natalia Trubkina will supervise the operations of all
departments that are part of Mechel’s HR management. Elena Selivanova, who
headed this line of work as vice-president for human resources and social
policy, is leaving her post. The position of vice-president for human resources
and social policy will no longer exist in the company.
“Natalia Trubkina is highly experienced in personnel management, particularly in
the mining and steel industry. Her appointment was entirely logical, as she has
proved, in her capacity as our steel division’s HR director, that she can
efficiently solve issues of any complexity. I sincerely welcome Natalia to the
Group’s top management team! At the same time, I am grateful to Elena Selivanova
for her loyalty to Mechel and the contribution she made to the company’s
development,” Mechel OAO’s Chief Executive Officer Oleg Korzhov said.
Natalia Trubkina headed Mechel-Steel Management Company OOO’s HR department
since 2009. In 2009, she was HR director in Soyuzmetallresurs Management Company
ZAO. In 2006-2009, she headed the HR department of RUSAL’s secondary alloys
business. In 2004-2006, she worked as RUSAL’s HR manager. In 2003-2004, she
worked as HR manager in Texas Nafta Industries Inc.’s representative office. In
1994-2002, she was HR manager in Belpromstroibank OAO.
