Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Not applicable.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

As previously disclosed in Amendment No. 30 to this Statement, Telenor East Holding’s Swap Agreement with ING terminated in accordance with its terms on June 10, 2016, and ING notified Telenor East Holding of its intention to dispose of the 2,237,000 Underlying ADRs. On June 17, 2016, ING and Telenor East Holding amended the Swap Agreement to revise the calculation of the Final Price, as described in the Thirteenth Amendment Agreement to the Swap Agreement, a conformed copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

On October 5, 2015, Telenor ASA issued a press release, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to Amendment No. 29 to this Statement. Except as described in that press release, the Reporting Persons do not have any current plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the events set forth in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4. However, the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review, reconsider and/or modify or otherwise change their plans or proposals with respect thereto.


Table of Contents

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)-(b)

Telenor East Holding owns 580,578,840 Common Shares (all of which are in the form of ADRs), representing approximately 33.0% of the total outstanding Common Shares. The other Reporting Persons may be deemed the beneficial owners of, and have sole power to direct the voting and disposition of, these shares.

To the best of each Reporting Person’s knowledge, none of the individuals named in Item 2 of this Statement is, or may be deemed to be, the beneficial owner of any securities of VimpelCom Ltd.

Neither the filing of this Statement nor any of its contents will be deemed to constitute an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is the beneficial owner of any shares of VimpelCom Ltd. (other than as described in this Item 5) for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purposes, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

(c) None of the Reporting Persons or, to the best of each Reporting Person’s knowledge, none of the persons identified in Item 2 of the Statement, has engaged in any transactions in the securities of VimpelCom Ltd. during the past 60 days.

(d) Other than the Reporting Persons, to the best of each Reporting Person’s knowledge, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Common Shares or Preferred Shares held by Telenor East Holding.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The Reporting Persons may, from time to time, formulate other plans or proposals regarding VimpelCom Ltd. or its securities in support of the Reporting Persons’ intention to divest the VimpelCom Ltd. shares owned by Telenor East Holding to the extent deemed advisable in light of market conditions, subsequent developments affecting VimpelCom Ltd., the general business and future prospects of VimpelCom Ltd. or other factors, or enter into and unwind cash settled equity swap or other similar derivative transactions with respect to the securities of VimpelCom Ltd., which transactions may be significant in amount. These arrangements do not and will not give the Reporting Persons voting or investment control over the securities of VimpelCom Ltd. to which these transactions relate and, accordingly, the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of any such securities.

None of the Reporting Persons, and to the best of each Reporting Person’s knowledge, none of the individuals named in Item 2 hereof has entered into any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of VimpelCom Ltd., including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangement, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
