U.S.$1.25 Billion Addition to U.S.$1.0 billion Perpetual Tier 1 by VTB

On November 1, 2012 VTB priced an additional issuance of U.S.$1.25 billion 9.50% Perpetual Loan Participation Notes (the "Notes"). The New Notes are additional to, and will be consolidated and form a single series with its U.S.$1.0 billion 9.50% Perpetual Loan Participation Notes previously issued in August 2012.

The Notes will be issued by VTB Eurasia Limited to fund a subordinated loan to OJSC VTB Bank ("VTB"), and listed on the Irish and London Stock Exchanges. The coupon will be fixed until December 6, 2022 at 9.5% and will be reset on that date and every ten years thereafter based on a 806.7 bps fixed spread over the then-prevailing ten year US Treasury rate.

The Lead Manager for the offering was VTB Capital plc, and Russian Agricultural Bank and Eurasian Development Bank served as co-managers.Herbert Moos, Deputy Chairman of the Management Board and Chief Financial Officer said: "This transaction enables us to utilize comprehensively the opportunities and benefits from raising capital through the issuance of hybrid instruments. It is a cost efficient and non-dilutive capital raising solution that lowers the cost of capital for VTB Group. Benefiting from excellent name recognition the deal was announced without separate marketing and attracted strong demand from a diverse investor base. The success of this transaction reaffirms VTB's status as an investment grade issuer in the international debt capital markets as well as the execution capabilities of its investment banking division VTB Capital, which was able to lead this transaction as sole Lead Manager."
