The placement was conducted in the domestic market in accordance with local regulations and represents the second tranche of a USD 100 million issuance programme. The first tranche was successfully placed in February 2026.

Key details of the Notes are as follows:

· Denomination: USD, with a face value of USD 10,000 per Note.

· Minimum Investment: A minimum purchase quantity of five (5) Notes.

· Term: The Notes are perpetual, with an option for the Bank to call them for early repayment after the fifth year.

Hovhannes Toroyan, Ameriabank's CFO, commented: "Following the success of the first tranche, the second tranche of AT1 notes was also fully allocated well ahead of the planned timeline, further demonstrating Ameriabank's strong franchise value and the high level of investor trust in the Bank. The second tranche was placed at a yield to maturity (YTM) 50 basis points lower than the first tranche, reflecting robust investor demand. By further strengthening our capital position, this transaction enhances our financial resilience and provides greater capacity to support our growth."

Giorgi Shagidze, Group CFO, commented: "This second AT1 issuance at a lower coupon rate underscores the market's confidence in Ameriabank's credit fundamentals and capital strength.
