OTP Bank Plc. („OTP Bank”) hereby informs the capital markets in connection with the acquisition of the 99.28% shareholding held by National Bank of Greece S.A. (“NBG”) in Romanian Banca Romaneasca S.A. (“BROM”) and the acquisition of other Romanian exposures of other Romanian subsidiaries of NBG by OTP Bank Romania S.A.

With reference to this development, on 18 April 2018, OBR withdrew the appeal filed against the National Bank of Romania’s (“NBR”) first instance decision, in which NBR did not grant its approval with respect to the Transaction.
