Conditions of Eurobonds settlement:

1. If a submitted purchase order is executed, the responsibility for delivery of money to the CCP's account in the CD no later than 18:00 on July 2, 2025 (T+4) lies with the trading participant that submitted the purchase order.

2. The buyer is responsible for accuracy of the information specified in the buyer's order, including in terms of meeting the criteria.

3. By submitting a purchase order, a trading participant thus confirms availability of money on the CCP's account in the CD or agrees to blocking by the CCP of the single-limit collateral with subsequent delivery of money by the trading participant to the CCP's account in the CD no later than 16:00 on July 2, 2025 (T+4) if the submitted purchase order is executed.

Please note that the additionally issued bonds have been assigned a temporary ISIN, different from the ISIN assigned in April 2025 to the initial placement Eurobonds totaling 500 mln US dollars, and valid for 40 days from the date of additional placement of the Eurobonds (July 3, 2025). Development Bank of Kazakhstan JSC, based on opinion of its legal adviser, informed KASE that assignment of a temporary ISIN is required under the applicable US securities laws to distinguish the additionally issued Eurobonds, which US investors cannot purchase for 40 days after the issue date, from the originally issued bonds. After this 40-day period, the additionally issued Eurobonds will be combined with the initially placed Eurobonds and all Eurobonds, regardless of their issue date, will be traded under the same ISIN assigned to the initially placed Eurobonds.
