* Result of poll of independent shareholders only.

Notes:

1.    Any proxy arrangement which gave discretion to the Chairman has been included in the "for" totals.

2.    A "vote withheld" is not a vote under English law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" or "against" a resolution.

3.    The issued share capital of EVRAZ plc as at 18 June 2019 is 1,506,527,294 ordinary shares. The Company holds 54,619,521  ordinary shares in treasury. The total number of voting rights attaching to the ordinary shares of the Company is therefore 1,451,907,773.

4.    The scrutineer of the poll was Computershare Investor Services PLC.

5.    All percentages are rounded to two decimal points.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, a copy  of the resolutions passed at the Meeting will shortly be available for inspection on the National Storage Mechanism which can be accessed at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM
