 to disclose differ from those governing U.S. corporations pursuant to the Exchange Act. We are not required to file quarterly reports on Form 10 -Qor provide current reports on Form 8 -Kdisclosing significant events within four business days of their occurrence. In addition, we are exempt from the SEC’s proxy rules and proxy statements that we distribute are not subject to review by the SEC and Section 16 of the Exchange Act regarding sales of shares by insiders. We are also not required to comply with Regulation FD, which imposes restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information to shareholders. In addition, our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short -swingprofit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of Kyivstar Group Ltd.’s securities. In addition, as a “foreign private issuer,” we are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements. A foreign private issuer must disclose in its annual reports on Form 20 -Ffiled with the SEC each Nasdaq requirement with which it does not comply followed by a description of its applicable home country practice. We intend to follow home country practice in lieu of the following Nasdaq requirements: (i) Nasdaq Rule 5605(b)(2), which requires that independent directors regularly meet in executive session, where only independent directors are present; (ii) Nasdaq Rule 5635(c), which requires shareholder approval for the establishment of or any material amendments to equity compensation or purchase plans or other equity compensation arrangements and (iii) Nasdaq Rule 5635(d), which requires shareholder approval in order to enter into any transaction, other than a public offering, involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by a company of common shares (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common shares) equal to 20% or more of the outstanding share capital of the company or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance for less than the greater of book or market value of the common shares. We cannot give any assurances that we will follow these or other Nasdaq corporate governance requirements in the future and may therefore in the future rely on additional available Nasdaq exemptions that would allow us to follow our home country practice. Unlike the requirements of Nasdaq, we are not required, under the corporate governance practice and requirements in Bermuda, to have its board consist of a majority of independent directors, nor are we required to have a remuneration committee
