The shareholders approved of Articles of association and internal by-laws that had been amended to incorporate the latest changes of Russian laws. The conclusion of contract of insurance of Company’s management was also approved. This contract is consistent with modern corporate governance standards. The expansion of corporate disclosures and the need to increase the personal responsibility of the management are the main reasons of this insurance.

At present, St. Petersburg Heating Grid is a 100% subsidiary of TGC-1, which operates the heating pipelines in the districts supplied from TGC-1 combined heat and power plants (CHPPs). Some of these heating pipelines (mostly main lines) are the property of TGC-1 and others (mostly transit pipelines, previously operated by municipal organization - GUP TEC of St. Petersburg) are the property of St. Petersburg.
In accordance with the plan which envisages the creation of standalone infrastructure organization-operator of heating grids, St. Petersburg Heating Grid should start its operations as a proprietor and operator of heating grids as of January 1, 2011. For this purpose, the current proprietors of heating grids contribute their assets as a means of payments for subscribed shares. The maximum amount to be contributed by TGC-1 to the authorized share capital of St. Petersburg Heating Grid was set by the shareholders at RUR 25 bn. The final ownership structure and proportions in the authorized share capital of St. Petersburg Heating Grid will be defined after the independent assessment of companies’ assets is complete.
