Moscow, Russia – April 12, 2007, – Mechel OAO (NYSE: MTL) announces the fulfillment of its obligations related to the previously announced acquisition of 93.35% of the shares of Southern Kuzbass Power Plant OAO.

As the result of the auction held on March 29, 2007, Mechel-Energo OOO owned by Mechel OAO has acquired 565,833,970 ordinary shares of Southern Kuzbass Power Plant comprising 93.35% of the charter capital of Southern Kuzbass Power Plant for RUR 6.9 billion.

Pursuant to the terms of the controlling stake sale and purchase agreement, the winner will acquire the ownership of the Power Plant shares after the offer is made to buy the securities from the minority shareholders at the tender sale price within seven days following signing the agreement.

Under the terms of the auction on April 5, 2007 Mechel-Energo OOO made an offer to the shareholders of Southern Kuzbass Power Plant to purchase the power plant shares at the price of RUR 12.19 per ordinary share.

Mechel has performed in full its financial obligations regarding payment for the 93.35% stake in Southern Kuzbass Power Plant OAO in the amount of RUR 6.9 billion.
