This Amendment No. 5 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (“Amendment No. 5”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed on October 31, 2022 (together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO”) by PagoNxt Merchant Solutions, S.L., a company organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (the “Purchaser”). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to acquire, through an all cash tender offer pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase, dated October 31, 2022 (the “U.S. Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which is attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibit (a)(1)(i), and the related Share Letter of Transmittal, Unit Letter of Transmittal and ADS Letter of Transmittal (each as defined in the U.S. Offer to Purchase, and collectively, “Letters of Transmittal”), copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(ii), (a)(1)(iii) and (a)(1)(iv), respectively (which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the “U.S. Offer”), in addition to a concurrent separate all cash tender offer on equivalent terms in Brazil (the “Brazilian Offer,” and together with the U.S. Offer, the “Offers”) pursuant to other offering documents published in Brazil, up to any and all of the outstanding (i) common shares, no par value (the “Common Shares”), preferred shares, no par value (the “Preferred Shares” and, together with the Common Shares, the “Shares”) and units, each composed of one Common Share and one Preferred Share (the “Units”), in each case of Getnet Adquirência e Serviços para Meios de Pagamento S.A. – Instituição de Pagamento, a company incorporated under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil (the “Company” or “Getnet”), excluding those Shares and/or Units held, directly or indirectly, by Purchaser and its affiliates, and (ii) American Depositary Shares, each representing two Units (the “ADSs” and, together with the Shares and the Units, the “Securities”), traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, excluding those ADSs held, directly or indirectly, by Purchaser and its affiliates, at a price per Security equal to the U.S. dollar equivalent of R$2.36 per Common Share, R$2.36 per Preferred Share, R$4.72 per Unit and R$9.44 per ADS, in each case payable in U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate reported by the Brazilian Central Bank (Banco Central do Brasil) on the business day prior to the settlement date of the U.S. Offer, to be adjusted for any potential dividends, interest on own capital and/or bonuses which may be paid, and/or splits, reverse splits and conversions which may take place, between the date on which the Offers were announced and the dates of expiration of the Offers (but excluding the interest on capital already announced on May 4, 2022 and paid on June 27, 2022, which will not be deducted from the offered price). The U.S. Offer commenced on October 31, 2022, and the initial offering period of the U.S. Offer expired at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (7:00 p.m. São Paulo time) on November 30, 2022. The subsequent offering period expired at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (7:00 p.m. São Paulo time) on February 9, 2023.
Any information contained in the documents incorporated herein by reference shall be deemed modified or superseded for purposes of this Amendment No. 5 to the extent that any information contained herein modifies or supersedes such information.
Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment No. 5, the information set forth in the Schedule TO, including all exhibits, schedules and annexes thereto, remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference in response to all items to the items in this Amendment No. 5. This Amendment No. 5 should be read together with the Schedule TO. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 5 without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO and heading references herein refer to the Schedule TO.
Items 1 to 11.
The U.S. Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent Items 1 through 11 incorporate by reference the information contained in the U.S. Offer to Purchase, are hereby supplemented by adding the following paragraphs thereto:
On February 9, 2023, the shareholders of the Company approved the redemption by the Company of any Unaffiliated Securities that remain outstanding after the Offers. The price in the Squeeze-Out shall be the price per Security payable during the initial offering period in respect of the Securities, as adjusted by the SELIC rate from the initial date of settlement of the Offers (i.e., December 5, 2022) until payment of the Squeeze-Out price. Purchaser understands that the Company expects to pay the Squeeze-Out price to holders of Shares and Units (including to the Custodian with respect to the ADSs) within 15 days of the date of the EGM, i.e. by February 24, 2023. The Squeeze-Out price with respect to the ADSs will be paid out to holders of ADSs by The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary for the ADSs. Holders of ADSs will receive payment in U.S. dollars.
Following the conclusion of the EGM and pursuant to Brazilian law, the Brazilian Subsequent Offering Period automatically expired as scheduled. According to information provided by Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A., as bookkeeper of the Shares and Units (the “Bookkeeper”), as of the expiration time of the Brazilian Subsequent
Offering Period, a total of 755,169 Common Shares, 1,621,995 Preferred Shares and 21,992,218 Units, representing in the aggregate, on a per Share basis, approximately 2.5% of the Company’s outstanding share capital were validly tendered into and not validly withdrawn from the Brazilian Offer during the Brazilian Subsequent Offering Period. In addition, on February 9, 2023 at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (7:00 p.m. São Paulo time), the U.S. Subsequent Offering Period expired as scheduled. As of the expiration time of the U.S. Subsequent Offering Period, according to information provided by The Bank of New York Mellon, as Tender Agent in the U.S. Offer, a total of 388,132 ADSs, representing in the aggregate, on a per Share basis, approximately 0.1% of the Company’s outstanding share capital were validly tendered into and not validly withdrawn from the U.S. Offer during the U.S. Subsequent Offering Period. No Shares or Units were tendered in the U.S. Offer.
As a result:
| · | according to information provided by the Tender Agent and the Bookkeeper, a total of 755,169 Common Shares, 1,621,995 Preferred Shares, 21,992,218 Units and 388,132 ADSs representing in the aggregate, on a per Share basis, approximately 2.6% of the Company’s outstanding share capital were validly tendered into and not validly withdrawn from the Offers during the U.S. Subsequent Offering Period and the Brazilian Subsequent Offering Period; and |
| · | according to information provided by the Tender Agent, the Bookkeeper and B3, a total of 1,827,151 Common Shares, 4,376,675 Preferred Shares, 32,097,323 Units and 17,744,372 ADSs representing in the aggregate, on a per Share basis, approximately 7.6% of the Company’s outstanding share capital were validly tendered into and not validly withdrawn from the Offers (including the initial offering periods in both the U.S. and Brazil) in the aggregate. |
All applicable conditions having been satisfied, Purchaser accepted for payment, and expects to pay for, all Securities validly tendered into and not validly withdrawn from the U.S. Subsequent Offering Period for which payment has not already been made pursuant to the terms of the U.S. Subsequent Offering Period. As a result, Purchaser’s shareholding in the Company will increase to 1,819,121,317 Shares representing approximately 97.5% of the Company’s outstanding share capital.
Promptly after the date hereof, Purchaser intends to take or cause the Company to take any actions necessary to effect the NASDAQ Delisting, the SEC Deregistration and to terminate the Deposit Agreement pursuant to its terms.
The press release issued by Purchaser in respect of the final results of the Offers is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(x) to the Schedule TO and is incorporated herein by reference.
