Ostchem Holding, owned by Dmytro Firtash, is in talks with Russia's Gazprombank on the repayment of a $842.5 million debt, according to the press service of the company.

"In connection with the application of the Gazprombank corporate communications department dated December 15, 2014, concerning Ostchem's obligations to the bank, the press service of Ostchem informs that Ostchem and Gazprombank are currently in talks to settle this issue," reads the report.
