It should also be noted that the foreign law, constituent documents and (or) the Prospectus, the Issue Prospectus and other documents, which may contain details of the trading of the securities (the "Issuance Documentation”), may impose certain limitations and conditions in relation to participation in corporate actions, voting at shareholders’ meetings, and payment of dividends. Also, Russian depositaries, which may be involved to record the rights to securities, cannot guarantee the investors’ ability to participate in all corporate actions of foreign issuers as the enforcement of said rights depends on legal regulation specifics of the country of registration of the issuer and/or the foreign stock exchange, on which foreign securities are traded, as well as on specifics on the settlement system in central international depositaries.
