AVELLUM ADVISES ON UKRAINE’S USD2 BILLION SENIOR NOTES ISSUE AND SWITCH TENDER OFFER

AVELLUM acted as the Ukrainian legal counsel to the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine on the issuance by Ukraine of its new USD2 billion 7.253% senior notes due 2033.

Posted on November 21, 2022
AVELLUM acted as the Ukrainian legal counsel to the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine on the issuance by Ukraine of its new USD2 billion 7.253% senior notes due 2033 (“New Eurobonds”). The new issuance was combined with Ukraine’s first ever switch tender offer in relation to its outstanding USD-denominated 7.75% senior notes due 2021 and USD-denominated 7.75% senior notes due 2022. The New Eurobonds were admitted to trading on the regulated market of Euronext Dublin. Net proceeds received by the state budget amounted to approximately USD1.1 billion. The New Eurobonds have the 12-year maturity, which is the longest one since the landmark 15-year instrument issued by Ukraine back in 2017. Together with proactive management of the upcoming maturities through the switch tender offer process, this allowed to even out Ukraine’s public debt servicing schedule, as well as reduce the related expenses. The AVELLUM team was led by senior partner Glib Bondar with significant support from associates Oleg Krainskyi, Mariana Veremchuk and Mykola Falko. Partner Vadim Medvedev, senior associate Anton Zaderyholova and associate Oles Bidnoshyia provided tax support.

Morgan Securities and Morgan Stanley acting as joint lead managers in connection with USD100 million Tier 2 Eurobond offering by the State Export-Import Bank of Ukraine (“Ukreximbank”). The transaction was structured as the issue of USD100 million 9.95 percent per annum 10-year loan participation notes (with resettable coupon on the fifth anniversary of issuance) (“Notes”) for the sole purpose of funding a subordinated loan to Ukreximbank. The Notes were listed on the London Stock Exchange.
