Bank of Georgia Holdings plc (“BGH“) announces that the reduction of capital described in the Prospectus issued by BGH on 20 December 2011 (the “Reduction of Capital“) has today been approved by the High Court of Justice of England and Wales (the “Court“).

The Court Order approving the Reduction of Capital has been registered with the Registrar of Companies today and accordingly the Reduction of Capital has now become effective.
