Moscow, Russian Federation (4 March 2019) - Public Joint Stock Company "MegaFon" (MoEx: MFON), a pan-Russian operator of digital opportunities ("MegaFon" or the "Company"), announces that the Moscow Exchange ("MoEx") is downgrading of the listing of its ordinary shares to its Listing Level Three.

Moex has informed the Company that, starting from 7 March 2019, the Company's ordinary shares will be included in the MoEx Level Three listing, the unquoted part of the List of securities admitted to trading at the Moscow Exchange, as a result of the Company's failure to comply with the free float requirements of the Moscow Exchange, following the Tender Offer to the Company's purchase ordinary shares and global depositary receipts completed on 6 September 2018, as earlier announced at: https://corp.megafon.com/investors/news/capital_market_releases/20180906-2007.html.

Previously, the MegaFon ordinary shares were traded and listed on Quotation list 2 of MoEx, and before 3 August 2018 - on the MoEx Quotation list 1. Initially, the Company's ordinary shares were admitted to trading on 27 September 2012 under the listing "V", and trading in ordinary shares commenced on 28 November 2012. On 19 August 2013 the Company's ordinary shares were added to Quotation list "B". Later, on 29 April 2014, the Company's listing was upgraded to Quotation list "A2", which was subsequently re-designated as Quolation list 1 following MoEx Listing revisions.
