Invitation to Offer for Sale shares in Sibir Energy Plc ("Sibir") 
on behalf of JSC Gazprom Neft ("Gazprom Neft") 
 
 
 
 
Renaissance Securities (Cyprus) Limited ("Renaissance Capital") on behalf of 
Gazprom Neft invites offers for the sale of shares in Sibir. 
 
 
Gazprom Neft is seeking to increase its minority holding by acquiring further 
shares of Sibir.  Gazprom Neft notes the provisions of Sibir's articles of 
association that would require it to launch an offer governed by the rules of 
The City Code of Takeovers and Mergers should its shareholding cross a level of 
30%.  Gazprom Neft has no intention of crossing this threshold pursuant to this 
offer for sale. 
 
 
Renaissance Capital will immediately commence purchasing shares of Sibir on 
behalf of Gazprom Neft, subject to agreement on price and other material terms. 
Shareholders of Sibir are invited to contact Renaissance Capital and offer their 
shares for sale, indicating the price and other material terms at which they are 
prepared to sell. The price at which shares will be purchased will reflect the 
level of interest shown by Sibir shareholders in this offer for sale, the size 
of the block of shares offered by a shareholder and the discretion of 
Renaissance Capital.  All purchases need not be at the same price.  No 
assurances can be given as to when this invitation to offer may lapse and 
Renaissance Capital reserves the right not to accept any offer.Renaissance 
Capital understands that the London Stock Exchange will shortly issue a 
statement regarding the ability of member firms of the London Stock Exchange to 
trade in shares of Sibir.
