   Resignation of Auditor

   Polymetal announces that Deloitte LLP  has resigned as auditors  effective
   as of 7 April 2022.

   Deloitte LLP considers that the following circumstances connected with its
   ceasing to hold office should be brought  to the notice of the members  or
   creditors of the Company:

     • Following the announcement on 7 March 2022 that Deloitte's Russian and
       Belarus firms would separate from  the global network of member  firms
       of which Deloitte LLP is a part of, they have concluded that they will
       not be  able to  carry out  an audit  of the  Company given  that  the
       majority of its assets and operations are in Russia.

   A copy of the statement of Deloitte LLP containing above information:

     • has been  submitted to  the  National Storage  Mechanism and  will  be
       available                                                      shortly
       at  1 https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism;
     • will be distributed to each member  of the Company and to each  person
       entitled to receive  notice of  a general  meeting of  the Company  as
       required by the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 within 14 days.

   The Board has commenced the search  for the replacement of an auditor  and
   will provide a recommendation for shareholders in due course.
