Resumption of transactions with MTS’s ordinary shares and trading of the ordinary shares on the Moscow Exchange

Moscow, Russian Federation — Mobile TeleSystems OJSC (“MTS” — NYSE: MBT), the leading telecommunications provider in Russia and the CIS, announces that all transactions involving MTS’s ordinary shares, as well as trading of the Company’s shares on the Moscow Exchange, previously suspended starting September 26, 2014, due to completion of the Company’s reorganization, will fully resume on October 3, 2014.

Transactions involving MTS’s ordinary shares and trading of the Company’s shares on the Moscow Exchange, were temporarily suspended beginning September 26, 2014, in accordance with requirements under Russian laws governing the operations of registrars and depositories.

In July 2013, the Federal Service for Financial Markets enacted new regulations, which mandate that trading in and transactions involving shares of companies undergoing reorganization through the takeover of subsidiaries be suspended pending the registration of a company's reorganization with relevant tax authorities.

MTS received documents of the state registration of the Company’s reorganization on October 2, 2014.

Changes in regulations in no way impacted or restricted the trading of the Company’s ADRs or shares listed on foreign exchanges. However, during this period, MTS’s depositary bank was not able to issue or cancel ADRs on behalf of ADR holders.

The subsidiary companies include Elf CJSC, EFCOM CJSC, Pilot CJSC, TVKiK CJSC, ZhelGorTeleCom CJSC, Intercom CJSC, TRK TVT OJSC, Kaskad-TV CJSC, Kuznetsktelemost CJSC, Sistema Telecom CJSC, and TZ CJSC. The reorganization of these entities was approved at the annual general meeting of shareholders on June 24, 2014
