    Dubai and Kyiv, June 5, 2025 – VEON Ltd. (NASDAQ:VEON) ("VEON"), a global digital operator, announces the public filing of a registration statement on Form F-4 (the "Registration Statement") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in connection with the listing of Kyivstar Group Ltd. ("Kyivstar Group"), the parent company of Ukraine's leading digital operator JSC Kyivstar, on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq").

    This filing represents a milestone in VEON's plans to list Kyivstar Group on Nasdaq following the anticipated completion of a business combination with Cohen Circle Acquisition Corp. I (NASDAQ:CCIR) ("Cohen Circle") that was announced on March 18, 2025. At the closing of the transaction, the business combination will result in the listing of Kyivstar Group's common shares and warrants on Nasdaq under the ticker symbols "KYIV" and "KYIVW," respectfully, as the only pure-play Ukrainian investment opportunity on U.S. stock markets.

    "Kyivstar Group's listing on Nasdaq will be a landmark development, bringing a Ukrainian company with a market-leading position in telecommunications and digital services to the world's premiere listing venue for technology companies. With today's filing, we continue to advance towards this historic moment, which we believe presents U.S. and global investors with a compelling opportunity to invest in Ukraine and become a stakeholder in its economic growth and resilience through a robust Ukrainian company," said Kaan Terzioglu, CEO of VEON Group.

    "We are very excited about completing this transaction and supporting Kyivstar Group's listing on Nasdaq. Kyivstar Group has tremendous growth potential and continues to deliver strong operational and financial performance, reflecting the resilience of both the company and the country. As we mark today's public filing, we look forward to completing the process which will make Kyivstar Group's success story more directly accessible to U.S. and global investors," said Betsy Cohen, Chairman and CEO of Cohen Circle.

    The closing of the business combination is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2025 and is subject to the approval of Cohen Circle's shareholders and other customary closing conditions. Cohen Circle's units, Class A ordinary shares and warrants are listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbols "CCIRU," "CCIR" and "CCIRW," respectively.
