Russian Railways Public Company has promised to handle the delivery of all of the plant’s produce in accordance with the latter’s applications. The plant’s Management Company, in its turn, promised to operate the rolling-stock with care and to supply Russian Railways with all the metal goods it needs. What is more, the metallurgical enterprise is to take part in financing the infrastructure development of Magnitogorsk-Gruzovaya railway station (located at South Ural Railways). The parties also agreed to help make MMK’s produce competitive on both the domestic and foreign markets and to hold conferences and meetings on important issues if needed.
