2.2	Contents of the resolutions adopted by the Supervisory Board of Sberbank and voting results: 1. Recognize the member of the Supervisory Board of Sberbank (hereinafter the Bank) Gennady Melikyan as independent director notwithstanding the formal grounds for applying the criterion “affiliation with a material counterparty”, i.e. Ellada Intertrade (as per the definition set out in Annex 4 to the Moscow Exchange Listing Rules). Mr Melikyan (hereinafter also the Director) holds a seat on the board of directors of AVTOTOR Holding, the parent company of Ellada Intertrade (hereinafter the Borrower), which has received a loan from the Bank in the amount exceeding 2 per cent of the book value of the Borrower’s assets. The Supervisory Board believes that the affiliation of Mr Melikyan with the Borrower is formal in nature and does not affect his ability to make objective and honest judgments nor to act reasonably and in good faith to further the interests of the Bank and all of its shareholders based on the following reasoning: The loan was disbursed as part of the state program for supporting systemically important companies. Lending terms under this program are set forth in the rules for subsidizing Russian credit institutions from the federal budget to cover shortfalls in profit from working capital loans disbursed in 2020 to systemically important organizations and their subsidiaries. The rules were approved by Resolution No. 582 of the Russian Government dated 24 April 2020. The loan agreement was not a related-party transaction, therefore it did not require the Supervisory Board’s consent.
	The Director does not represent AVTOTOR Holding or its subsidiaries on the Bank’s Supervisory Board; his opinions on agenda items of Supervisory Board meetings rely on his professional experience and expertise and are independent and unbiased. The Director actively participates in meetings of the Bank’s Supervisory Board and its committees and requests additional materials and clarifications to review all issues comprehensively. He has been annually elected Senior Independent Director since 2015, which is a testimony to his generally acknowledged impeccable reputation, his ability to form independent, objective and honest opinions on issues reviewed by the Supervisory Board unaffected by the Bank’s executive bodies, individual groups of shareholders or other stakeholders. Voting results: “for” - 11 (E. Aho, L. Boguslavsky, H. Gref, B. Zlatkis, S. Ignatiev, N. Kudryavtsev, A. Kuleshov, V. Kolychev, M. Oreshkin, A. Siluanov, N.
