**Alibaba Group Announces Commencement of Exchange Offer for Outstanding Senior Notes**

**Hong Kong, China, September 4, 2025** — Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE: BABA and HKEX: 9988 (HKD Counter) and 89988 (RMB Counter), "Alibaba," "Alibaba Group" or the "Company") today announced that it has commenced an exchange offer to exchange (i) up to US$1,000 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% Senior Notes due 2030, (ii) up to US$1,150 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.250% Senior Notes due 2035, and (iii) up to US$500 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.625% Senior Notes due 2054 (collectively, the "Exchange Notes"), which have been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), for equal principal amounts of its outstanding 4.875% Senior Notes due 2030, 5.250% Senior Notes due 2035 and 5.625% Senior Notes due 2054 (collectively, the "Outstanding Notes"), which were issued in November 2024 in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

The exchange offer is being made to satisfy the Company's obligations under a registration rights agreement entered into on November 26, 2024 in connection with the placement of the Outstanding Notes, and does not represent a new financing transaction. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the exchange offer.

The terms of the Exchange Notes are substantially identical to the terms of the Outstanding Notes, except that the Exchange Notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions, registration rights and additional interest for failure to observe obligations in the registration rights agreement. The Outstanding Notes that are not exchanged in the exchange offer will continue to be subject to the existing transfer restrictions.

The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 2, 2025, unless extended by the Company. Tenders of the Outstanding Notes must be validly made at or prior to the expiration time and may be withdrawn at any time prior to the expiration time. The terms of the exchange offer are set forth in a prospectus dated September 4, 2025 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and the related letter of transmittal.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any of the securities described herein, in the United States or elsewhere, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. A registration statement on Form F-4 (File No. 333-288794) relating to the exchange offer was declared effective by the SEC on September 4, 2025. The exchange offer is being made only pursuant to the exchange offer documents that are being distributed to holders of the Outstanding Notes, including the prospectus dated September 4, 2025 and the related letter of transmittal.
