JSC OPIN

ANNOUNCES RESULTS OF SUBMITTED APPLICATIONS FOR EARLIER ANNOUNCED SHARES
BUYBACK

Joint Stock Company –Open Investments– (JSC –OPIN– or the –Company–)
(BLOOMBERG: RTS – OPIN.RU; MICEX – OPIN.RM), one of the leading real estate
developers in Russia, today announces the results of submitted applications
by shareholders in response to decision announced on General Shareholders–
Meeting on 8 September 2011 of partial shares buyback.

On 8 September 2011 JSC OPIN announced the decision to decrease the
authorised capital stock of the Company by 60,000 registered ordinary
shares (0.39% of total float) via a buyback of such shares from the market
at a price of 955 rubles and 65 copecks per share. Applications to sell
shares could be submitted through branches of the Company–s Registrar CJSC
–Computershare Registrar– within the period from 13 October 2011 till 11
November 2011.

Forty eight applications were submitted for the total amount of 483,678
(four hundred eighty three thousand six hundred seventy eight) shares.

Since the total number of shares submitted to the Company for sale exceeded
60,000 shares, they would be purchased on a pro rata basis with rounding
down where necessary (not in accordance to math rounding rules in order to
avoid the purchase of fractional shares). Effectively, the coefficient at
which the submitted for buyback shares will be purchased is equal to
0.1240494709 (60,000 divided by 483,678). At the same time the number of
shares to be purchased from a shareholder shall not be less than one share.

In order to complete the sale of shares, shareholders or their authorised
representatives who submitted applications should personally visit the
branch of CJSC –Computershare Registrar– through which they filed such an
application before 28 November 2011 in order to sign a Share Purchase
Agreement.

Shares will be paid in cash in rubles within the timeline set in the Share
Purchase Agreement, which is equal to 5 (five) days from the date of record
to transfer shares on OPIN–s account in the shareholders register. Expenses
for reregistration of shares will be incurred by JSC –OPIN–.
