Hereby PJSC GAZPROM would like to express its support to ongoing gas pipeline projects that are aimed at improved security of natural gas supplies to European consumers, provide additional diversification of delivery routes to the EU, and strengthen the European energy security in general. We strongly believe that availability of incremental capacities will enhance business competition in the German gas transportation market as well as contribute to the efficient German gas network development by additional gas flows. Moreover, taking into account tendency towards increase in gas import in the EU with decrease in natural gas production in certain EU member-states, German and other European consumers will only benefit from anticipated additional gas flows which could be brought to the market by new infrastructure projects. An illustration of PJSC GAZPROM's support is the fact that GPE plans to use capacities of a new project EUGAL on a long-term and short-term basis to supply gas to its customers. This intention is backed by the results of the respective capacities auction that took place in 2017 and where GPE made significant binding long-term bookings which, in turn, allowed the involved Transport System Operators to pass the economic test so as to substantiate the necessary investments. In the meantime, delay in realization of such projects may have a significant negative effect on shippers who

2 expect to include incremental capacities in their gas transportation portfolios, GPE included, and jeopardize the development of German energy market. We would like to express our gratitude for your support with respect to the development of new gas infrastructure in Germany and such challenging projects as EUGAL. We consider that one of the essential preconditions for the successful implementation of infrastructure projects is timely receipt of all necessary permits and authorizations and kindly request your further support for the EUGAL project. Looking forward to our further joint cooperation in improving security of supplies of natural gas to Europe. Yours faithfully, Alexander Medvedev Deputy Chairman of the Management Committee
