Here is a slightly revised version of the points for our response to the AP, incorporating some of yesterday’s feedback.

1.1. Nikolai Zlochevsky is a prominent Ukrainian and the sole investor in Burisma Holdings {Brocity Investments). It is important to note that Burisma is one of many investments he has made in Ukraine and elsewhere.

1.2. The company has an experienced and talented management team and, in 2013 Burisma adopted a Western-style governance structure including a Board of Directors, Strategic Planning Committee, Audit Committee, and Corporate Secretary.

2. As a corporate entity, Burisma does not take positions on political matters. Burisma’s success in the gas market supports energy independence, national sovereignty and regional stability.

2.1. Burisma’s operations in Eastern and Western Ukraine have not been impacted by recent unrest in parts of Ukraine. Production and drilling are unaffected.

3. Mr. Biden will not lobby on behalf of Burisma. His role is to advise the company’s legal and compliance unit, including guidance on corporate governance standards.

3.1. Mr. Biden is a private citizen, a lawyer and investor and is involved with several global not for profit organizations.

3.2. Mr. Biden is one of several new members whom I recruited to join the Board of Directors including Aleksander Kwasniewsk, the former President of Poland who will help provide strategic guidance on the global geopolitical environment, and Devon Archer who will provide strategic expansion guidance based on his experience with investor relations and global stakeholder engagement. All of these board members share our commitment to energy independence in Ukraine.

3.3. I initially met Devon through mutual business associates and he ultimately introduced me to Hunter Biden.
