Ltd., a Singapore private company limited by shares (the “Target Company”), each shareholder of the Target Company as set forth on Schedule 1 of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Target Company Shareholders”), and Akshay Garg in his capacity as “Shareholders Representative”, pursuant to which, among other things: (i) on the business day prior to the consummation of the acquisition by Holdco of the Target Company contemplated in the Business Combination Agreement (such consummation, the “Closing”), Merger Sub will merge with and into VIH, with Merger Sub continuing as the “Surviving VIH Company” (the “VIH Merger”, with the effective time of such merger, the “VIH Merger Effective Time”), as a result of which, (a) the Surviving VIH Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdco and (b) immediately after the VIH Share Recapitalization, each Class A ordinary share of VIH, par value $0.0001 per share (the “VIH Class A Ordinary Shares”) issued and outstanding and Class B ordinary shares of VIH, par value $0.0001 per share (“VIH Class B Ordinary Shares”, and together with the VIH Class A Ordinary Shares, the “VIH Ordinary Shares”) immediately prior to the VIH Merger Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding as of the VIH Merger Effective Time and shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for one Class A ordinary share of Holdco (“Holdco Class A Ordinary Share”) (in the form of one American Depository Share representing a Holdco Class A Ordinary Share, each a “Holdco Class A ADS”) and each outstanding warrant to purchase VIH Ordinary Shares will become exercisable for Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) on identical terms, and (ii) at the Closing, among other things, (x) Holdco will acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Target Company (the “Target Company Ordinary Shares”) and the issued and outstanding preference Shares of the Target Company (the “Target Company Preference Shares”) from the Target Company Shareholders in exchange for the Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) or Class V Ordinary Shares of Holdco (“Holdco Class V Ordinary Share”, and together with the Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares, the “Holdco Ordinary Shares”) (in the form of American Depository Share representing a Holdco Class V Ordinary Share, each a “Holdco Class V ADS”, and together with the Holdco Class A ADSs, the “Holdco ADSs”), as the case may be, (b) each option to acquire Target Company Ordinary Shares granted under the FinAccel Employee Share Options Scheme (the “Target Company Options”) and each Assumed Warrant (as defined below) will be converted into the right to receive an option or a warrant to purchase Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs), respectively, and (c) each Target Company Convertible Note (as defined below) that is then outstanding and not converted into Target Company Ordinary Shares, shall be cancelled and extinguished and in exchange therefor, converted into the right to receive Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs), in each case, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Transactions”), including the VIH Merger, will constitute a “Business Combination” as contemplated by VIH’s existing amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Current VIH Articles”).

The Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions were unanimously approved by the board of directors of VIH (the “Board”) on July 29, 2021.

The Business Combination

VIH Merger

At the VIH Merger Effective Time, Merger Sub and VIH shall consummate the VIH Merger, pursuant to which VIH shall be merged with and into Merger Sub, following which the separate corporate existence of VIH shall cease and Merger Sub shall continue as the surviving company (the “Surviving VIH Company”).

At the VIH Merger Effective Time, every issued and outstanding unit of VIH (consisting of one VIH Class A Ordinary Share and one-fourth of a VIH Public Warrant, as defined below, the “VIH Units”), to the extent not detached, shall be automatically detached and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold one VIH Class A Ordinary Share and one-fourth of a warrant of VIH.

At the VIH Merger Effective Time, every issued VIH Class B Ordinary Share will convert into one VIH Class A Ordinary Share on a one-for-one basis (the “VIH Share Recapitalization”) and, immediately thereafter every issued VIH Class A Ordinary Share (other than those owned by VIH as treasury shares, which shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor) shall automatically be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for one Holdco Class A Ordinary Share (in the form of one Holdco Class A ADS).

At the VIH Merger Effective Time, in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement dated March 4, 2021 by and between VIH and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agreement”), each issued and outstanding whole warrant of VIH (consisting of either one public warrant entitling the holder to purchase one VIH Class A Ordinary Share per warrant at a price of $11.50 per VIH Class A Ordinary Share (a “VIH Public Warrant”), or a private placement warrant entitling the holder to purchase one VIH Class A Ordinary Share per warrant at a price of $11.50 per VIH Class A Ordinary Share (a “VIH Private Warrant”), collectively the “VIH Warrants”) will become exercisable for the right to receive one Holdco Class A Ordinary Share (in the form of Holdco Class A ADS(s)) at the same exercise price per share and on the same terms in effect immediately prior to the VIH Merger Effective Time, and the rights and obligations of VIH under the Warrant Agreement will be assigned and assumed by Holdco.

At the VIH Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the VIH Merger and without any action on the part of any party hereto or the holders of any shares of VIH, Holdco or Merger Sub, all of the ordinary shares of Merger Sub in issue immediately prior to the VIH Merger Effective Time, each of US$0.00001 par value in the share capital of Merger Sub, shall be converted into an equal number of ordinary shares of the Surviving VIH Company, each of US$0.00001 par value in the share capital of the Surviving VIH Company, with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and shall constitute the only issued share capital of the Surviving VIH Company.

Target Company Shareholder Consideration

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Target Company Shareholders, will receive aggregate merger consideration with an implied value of $2,000,000,000 (the “Equity Value”), consisting of a number of shares of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares or Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs or Holdco Class V ADSs, respectively), equal to the Equity Value divided by $10.00 (the “Aggregate Share Consideration”).

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, at the VIH Merger Effective Time, (a) Target Company Ordinary Shares held by the Target Company Shareholders will be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive, in the case of the Shareholders other than Akshay Garg and Umang Rustagi, a number of newly issued Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) or, in the case of Akshay Garg and Umang Rustagi (the “Founders”), Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class V ADSs), each with a par value of $0.00001, equal to an exchange ratio (the “Exchange Ratio”) determined by dividing the Aggregate Share Consideration by the sum of (without duplication): (a) the total number of outstanding Target Company Ordinary Shares, (b) the total number of Target Company Ordinary Shares convertible from all of the outstanding Target Company Preference Shares, (c) the total number of Target Company Ordinary Shares subject to issuance pursuant to a Target Company Option, or portion thereof, to the extent such Target Company Option (or applicable portion

 

2


thereof) is vested and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing or would vest upon or immediately following the Closing (the “Vested Target Company Options”), (d) the maximum number of Target Company Ordinary Shares subject to issuance pursuant to the (i) the Warrant by and between the Target Company and Partners for Growth V, L.P., dated August 12, 2019 and (ii) the Warrant by and between the Target Company and Partners for Growth V, L.P., dated May 12, 2021 (collectively, the “PFG Warrants”), (e) the maximum number of Target Company Ordinary Shares subject to issuance pursuant to the Warrant to Purchase Ordinary Shares of FinAccel Pte. Ltd. by and between the Target Company and Victory Park Capital Advisors, LLC, dated July 10, 2020 (the “VPC Warrant”), and (f) the maximum number of Target Company Ordinary Shares or Target Company Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of Target Company Preference Shares, in each case subject to issuance pursuant to outstanding Target Company Convertible Notes, in each case of the foregoing items (a) through (f), as of immediately prior to the Closing.

As of the Closing, each Target Company Option that is then outstanding shall be converted into the right to receive an option relating to Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) on the same terms and conditions as are in effect with respect to such Target Company Option immediately prior to the Closing (including with respect to vesting, release, and forfeiture or termination provisions) (each, a “Holdco Option”) except that (i) such Holdco Option shall relate to such number of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs, rounded down to the nearest whole Holdco Class A Ordinary Share) as is equal to the product of (A) the number of Target Company Ordinary Shares subject to such Target Company Option multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and (ii) the exercise price per share for each such Holdco Option shall be equal to the quotient of (A) the exercise price per share of such Target Company Option in effect immediately prior to the Closing divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded up to the nearest full cent).

Each of the PFG Warrants and VPC Warrant (collectively, the “Target Company Warrants”), to the extent that it remains outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the VIH Merger Effective Time (each, an “Assumed Warrant”), shall be converted into a warrant to purchase Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) on the same terms and conditions as are in effect immediately prior to the VIH Merger Effective Time (the “Successor Warrant”), except that (a) each Assumed Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase such number of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) as is equal to the product of (i) the number of Target Company Ordinary Shares subject to such Assumed Warrant immediately prior to the VIH Merger Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio and (b) each Assumed Warrant shall have an exercise price per share (which shall be rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient of (i) the exercise price per share of such Assumed Warrant immediately prior to the VIH Merger Effective Time divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

As of the Closing, each note issued by the Target Company that is convertible into Target Company Ordinary Shares or Target Company Preference Shares (the “Target Company Convertible Notes”) that is then outstanding and not converted into Target Company Ordinary Shares, shall be cancelled and extinguished and in exchange therefor, converted into the right to receive with respect to such Target Company Convertible Note, Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs, rounded down to the nearest whole Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares) equal to the product of (i) the number of Target Company Ordinary Shares that such Target Company Convertible Notes were convertible into immediately prior to the Closing based on the principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest outstanding on such Target Company Convertible Note multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

High Vote Shares

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, immediately prior to the Closing, the Current Holdco Articles will be further amended and restated (the “A&R Holdco Articles”) to, among other things, (a) establish a dual-class Holdco Ordinary Shares structure consisting of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares and Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares, and (b) provide that each Holdco Class A Ordinary Share will be entitled to one (1) vote per share and each Holdco Class V Ordinary Share will be entitled to ten (10) votes per share (the “High Vote”). In connection with the Transactions, the VIH Ordinary Shares received as consideration by the Founders will be Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares, and will entitle the Founders to the High Vote until such time as such Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares are exchanged pursuant to the terms of the A&R Holdco Articles for an equal number of Holdco Class A

Ordinary Shares (i) at the option of the holder, (ii) upon a transfer to an unaffiliated third party, (iii) upon the conversion of any Class V Ordinary Share by Holdco in any manner available under applicable law, including redeeming or repurchasing the relevant Class V Shares and applying the proceeds thereof towards payment for the new Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares, (iv) upon a Founder’s death or incapacity or (v) the date that the number of shares of Holdco, including any shares of Holdco underlying any securities (including restricted stock units, options, or other convertible instruments) convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable into shares of Holdco, held by a Founder and certain permitted transferees is less than 50% of the number of shares of Class V Ordinary Shares held by such Founder and such permitted transferees at the Closing (whichever is earlier with respect to such Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares). The Holdco Class V Ordinary Shares will provide the Founders with approximately 70.5% of the voting power of the Holdco Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately following the Closing, assuming no redemptions by VIH’s Shareholders.
