Transaction Highlights of the 2011 US$500m Georgia Sovereign Eurobond Successful pricing of a new 10-year $500m Reg S / 144A benchmark transaction at 7.125% and in parallel redemption of $417m of its existing $500m 7.50% bond due 2013 through an “any and all” cash tender The tender participation ratio of 83% was very high and the majority of existing investors took advantage of the opportunity to swap their exposures into the new 10-year benchmark offering The issuance saw heavy demand and garnered a demand of over $2.66bn (5.3x oversubscription) from 149 accounts The new 10-year offering priced 148bps inside of its existing bond due 2013, which traded at 494bps over swaps prior to the announcement of the tender — The transaction’s 357bps spread over the 10-year UST provided a 117bps improvement over Georgia’s shorter-dated $500 million 5-year offering issued in 2008, or a 37.5bps decrease in yield — The achieved pricing level was also materially inside of other similarly rated sovereign issuance from the region The timing of the transaction benefited from very limited competing sovereign supply and strong market technicals — The offering took advantage of the current historically low UST yields — S&P’s and Fitch’s decisions to upgrade Georgia's credit rating outlooks to ‘positive’ from ‘negative’ in March helped highlight the country’s positive credit momentum ahead of the deal announcement 08/05/ :34 4
