Basis for bringing these items to the General Meeting of Shareholders' voting
Following the decision of the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Kazatomprom dated 25 May 2023, the Company and CNNC Overseas Limited ("CNOL") concluded the Long-term contract for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates No. CNOL2023-50 dated 26 June 2023.
On 15 November 2024 the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Kazatomprom approved the conclusion of the Spot contract for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates with CNOL and the Long-term agreement for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates with China National Uranium Corporation ("CNUC"). In accordance with this decision, the Company and CNOL concluded the Spot contract for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates No. CNOL-2024-156 dated 15 November 2024, under which the delivery of natural uranium concentrates was completed in full.
At the same time, the conclusion of the Long-term agreement for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates with CNUC was postponed due to additional editorial comments to the agreement which were received from the authorized bodies of CNUC. In order to reflect certain clarifications and edits in the existing Long-term contract with CNOL No. CNOL2023-50 dated 26 June 2023 for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates and in the draft of the Long-term agreement for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates with CNUC, the parties agreed on the draft Letter Agreement No. 3 to the Long-term contract No. CNOL2023-50 dated 26 June 2023 for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates and the new draft Long-term agreement for the sale and purchase of natural uranium concentrates with CNUC. At the same time, the material terms of these transactions (volumes, prices, delivery schedules) remain unchanged and confidential. Because the approval of both transactions lied within the competence of the General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (as per legislation and the Company's Charter), any changes related to such transactions, including non-material edits and amendments to the corresponding agreements, shall also be brought to the Company's General Meeting of Shareholders and need to be voted upon.

CNNC is the main operator of nuclear power plants in China and is engaged in R&D in nuclear energy and technologies, construction of nuclear power plants and production of nuclear fuel.
