Nora,

Thanks for giving us the heads up on this.   We'll look into it and see if
we need any additional info.

Best,

Devon, Hunter, and Eric:

DTEK Finance PLC, a large Ukrainian energy company that is ultimately owned
by Rinat Akhmetov, filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy protection on Friday in
New York.  Chapter 15 is the provision of the Bankruptcy Code that governs
recognition of foreign insolvency proceedings in the United States.  In
this case, DTEK is in the middle of an insolvency proceeding in the United
Kingdom and filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy in the United States to prevent
creditors from attempting to collect against DTEK in the US while the UK
proceedings are pending.

It is not clear from the US bankruptcy documents whether Burisma is
affected by DTEK’s UK/US proceedings, but we wanted to bring this to
your/Burisma’s attention.   Please let us know if you would like any
additional information concerning DTEK’s US or UK proceedings.

Best,

Nora
