ANNOUNCEMENT of EXTENSION OF EARLY CONSENT DEADLINE OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER AND CONSENT SOLICITATION

Ukraine announces today that it extends the Early Consent Deadline of its previously announced Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation (the "Invitation") launched on 9 August 2024, pursuant to which (i) Ukraine has invited Eligible Holders of the Existing Notes (as described therein) to exchange their Existing Notes for the New Securities Consideration and (ii) Ukraine and Ukravtodor have invited Holders of the Existing Notes to consent to the Mandatory Exchange of Existing Notes for the Mandatory Exchange Consideration (each as defined in the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation Memorandum dated 9 August 2024, as amended and restated on 12 August 2024 (the "Memorandum")).

The Early Consent Deadline was previously set at 5:00 pm (New York Time) on 23 August 2024 and the Expiration Time was set at 5:00 pm (New York Time) on 27 August 2024.

Ukraine understands that some Holders may be facing technical issues in delivering their Participation Instructions through their custodians and Clearing Systems, which could impact the timely delivery of such Participation Instructions prior to the Early Consent Deadline.

Accordingly, based on the information from such Holders, Ukraine has decided to extend the Early Consent Deadline to 5:00 pm New York Time on 27 August 2024 (i.e. to the Expiration Time) to provide additional time for all Holders facing technical issues to submit such Participation Instructions, to the extent they have not done so already.

Holders who deliver valid Participation Instructions on or before the Early Consent Deadline will be eligible to receive the Consent Fee (subject to the conditions set forth in the Memorandum), in addition to the consideration each such Holder would be eligible to receive pursuant to the Invitation.

The Expiration Time remains unchanged at 5:00 pm New York Time on 27 August 2024. The Settlement Date remains unchanged and is expected to be on or around 30 August 2024, and the other dates and times originally set out in the section "Expected Timetable of Events" of the Memorandum remain the same.

All Participation Instructions previously validly delivered will remain so delivered and no other action is required.  Except as provided herein, all other terms, provisions and conditions of the Invitation remain unchanged.

Terms used in this announcement but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Memorandum, which can be found on the Exchange and Consent Website: https://projects.sodali.com/Ukraine

For the avoidance of doubt, no further amendment is being made to the terms and conditions of the Invitation or the Written Resolutions or the process for submission of Participation Instructions. All other terms and conditions of the Invitation remain in full force and effect.

The above times and dates are subject to the right of Ukraine to extend, amend and/or early terminate the Invitation or further modify the Early Consent Deadline, the Expiration Time, the Effective Date or the Settlement Date (subject to applicable law, the applicable Agency Agreements or Trust Deed and as provided in the Memorandum) with respect to the Existing Notes.
