The full terms and conditions of the Invitation are described in the Invitation for Offers dated March 22, 2022 (the "Invitation for Offers").

The Republic intends to spend a maximum amount it will determine, in its sole and absolute discretion (the "Maximum Cash Consideration") for the aggregate Purchase Price (as defined below) of and accrued interest on the Old Bonds purchased pursuant to the Invitation. The Republic reserves the right to increase or decrease the Maximum Cash Consideration in its sole discretion and to terminate the Invitation for any reason.

In such scenario, the Republic reserves the right to accept significantly more or less (or none) of Old Bonds of any one series as compared to any other series of Old Bonds.

The consideration for the Old Bonds tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Invitation (the price of any Bond being referred to as the "Purchase Price") will be determined by reference to the fixed spread specified for the applicable series, plus the yield of the specified Benchmark Reference U.S. Treasury Security (the "Benchmark Reference Security Yield") (which shall be based on the bid-side price of the applicable Benchmark Reference U.S. Treasury Security) at or around 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on Monday, March 28, 2022 (such date and time, the "Pricing Time"), unless extended, expressed as a percentage and rounded to the third decimal place (with 0.0005 being rounded upwards).

The Republic intends to pay the aggregate Purchase Price of the Old Bonds purchased pursuant to the Invitation and accrued interest and expenses to be borne by the Republic in connection with the Invitation from the proceeds of a contemplated offering and sale by the Republic of one or more series of new bonds (the "New Bonds").

 The Invitation is subject to certain conditions, including the successful offering and sale by the Republic of the New Bonds on terms and conditions acceptable to the Republic and collectively providing sufficient funds to pay the aggregate Purchase Price and accrued interest and expenses to be borne by the Republic pursuant to the Invitation (the "Financing Condition").

Holders of the Old Bonds will not have withdrawal rights with respect to the Invitation.

The Republic is expected to announce the Maximum Cash Consideration at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on Wednesday, March 23, 2022 (the "Maximum Cash Consideration Announcement Date"). The Maximum Cash Consideration may be subject to increase or decrease by the Republic in its sole and absolute discretion.
