Forward-Looking Statements

The information on this web site contains “forward-looking statements”, as the phrase is defined in Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and include statements relating to, among other things, VEON’s strategy, development plans and anticipated performance.

The forward-looking statements included on this web site are based on management’s best assessment of VEON’s strategic and financial position and of future market conditions, trends and other potential developments. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. The actual outcome may differ materially from these statements as a result of continued volatility in the economies in the markets in which VEON operates; unforeseen developments from competition; governmental regulation of the telecommunications industries; general political uncertainties in the markets in which VEON operates; government investigations or other regulatory actions; litigation with third parties; and/or the ability to successfully integrate newly-acquired businesses or execute its strategy and development plans. Certain other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statements include the risk factors described in VEON’s latest annual report on Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and other public filings made by VEON with the SEC.

The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and VEON disclaims any obligation to update them or to announce publicly any revision to any of the forward-looking statements contained on this web site, or to make corrections to reflect future events or developments.

Miscellaneous

Severability

If any provision of these terms of use is unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Other
