Notes to table

Market capitalization of the company - value, which equals to the product of
the amount of the company's shares (common and preferred) that are in
circulation (of paid shares), and the weighted average market price of the
deals, made at KASE in this share during the whole last trade day in these
shares. The indicator of the company's market capitalization is computed in
Kazakhstan tenge. It is converted to U.S. dollar according to the weighted
average rate of tenge to dollar as on the date of ranking compilation.

Quantity of paid shares is determined by KASE independently on the basis of
the data of the register holder of a listing company and the company itself as
the number of shares of the listing company minus purchased by it.

It is noteworthy, KASE takes into account with a view of the company's
market capitalization the new value of the number of paid shares not as of
the date of compiling the extract from the register, but as of the date of
receiving this extract by the stock exchange (more precisely, as of the
date of its processing by the exchange). Shortcomings of this method are
obvious. However, the application of another method is not considered
possible, since KASE computes capitalization indicator daily, considers it in
the indexes values, and cannot re-count this indicators backdating.

According to the Listing rules, companies, securities of which were included
in the official securities list of KASE, at present must provide the exchange
with the extracts from share register at the beginning of each calendar
quarter. Each extract is processed by KASE either on the day of receipt or
the next working day. However, most of issuers give extracts as of the date
specified in it with a substantial delay (from several days till a number of
months). Frankly speaking, among companies submitting excerpts with deep
delay as a rule are production organizations with rarely changing authorized
capital.

Share of the company, % - index, obtained by referring market capitalization
of the company to summary capitalization of stock exchange's market of
shares of official securities list of KASE and expressed in percentage. At
closing of the market on August 31, 2010 this indicator made USD49,758.4
m. 98 shares of 72 issuers were in the official list of securities of KASE.
