Scheme of Arrangement update

Auckland, New Zealand | Redmond, Washington; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Plano, Texas, US – 20 February 2023 (NZT)

Pushpay Holdings Limited (NZSX:PPH, ASX:PPH, ‘Pushpay’ or ‘the Company’) advises that it has been informed by Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC), which holds 6.2% of Pushpay’s shares, that subject to there being no material change in market conditions or the NZD/USD exchange rate, ACC intends to vote against the acquisition of Pushpay at NZ$1.34 per share by Pegasus Bidco Limited under the proposed Scheme of Arrangement.

The Non-Conflicted Directors’ recommendation in respect of the Scheme of Arrangement remains unchanged. The Non-Conflicted Directors unanimously recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme, and undertake to vote all of their own Pushpay shares in favour of the Scheme, in the absence of a superior proposal.[1]

The Non-Conflicted Directors believe the Scheme represents the most compelling risk adjusted value for shareholders. It provides shareholders with an opportunity to accelerate a capital return, while also mitigating the risks and uncertainties that are otherwise involved in delivering the opportunities from executing Pushpay’s strategic plan over time. Since the announcement of the Scheme Implementation Agreement on 28 October 2022, no superior proposal has emerged and the Non-Conflicted Directors believe that a superior proposal is unlikely to emerge.

______________


[1] The Non-Conflicted Directors may change their recommendation and vote against the Scheme if there is a superior proposal prior to the Scheme Meeting which the Bidder does not match in accordance with the matching rights set out in the Scheme Implementation Agreement. In addition, your Non-Conflicted Directors reserve the right to change their recommendation or vote against the Scheme if, prior to the Scheme Meeting, the Independent Adviser changes the Independent Adviser’s valuation range for the Pushpay shares and, after that change, the Scheme consideration is below the Independent Adviser’s valuation range for the Pushpay shares.
