European Healthcare Acquisition & Growth Company B.V. – Results of the Repurchase Offer

 

Munich, 7 November 2023

 

European Healthcare Acquisition & Growth Company B.V. (the "Company"), a Dutch operators-led special purpose acquisition company listed on Euronext Amsterdam, today announces the results of the repurchase offer (the "Repurchase Offer"), as undertaken pursuant to the repurchase document dated 4 October 2023 available on the Company's website www.ehc-company.com (the "Repurchase Document").

The repurchase offer period started on Monday, 9 October 2023, and ended today, Tuesday, 7 November 2023. Under the Repurchase Offer, 18,761,038 class A ordinary shares in the capital of the Company (the "Public Shares"), being 93.8% of the issued and outstanding Public Shares, were validly tendered for repurchase at a price of €10.17 per Public Share, consisting of €10.00 per Public Share plus the pro rata share of the net positive interest accrued on the escrow account up to and including 31 October 2023 of €0.17 per Public Share.

The Company will initially withhold 15% from the pro rata share of the net positive interest accrued (i.e. €0.0255 per Public Share) (the "Withheld Amount") to address Dutch dividend withholding tax (dividendbelasting). Public Shareholders will initially receive €10.1445 per Public Share. However, Public Shareholders who confirm that they are not a Dutch resident individual or entity, and accordingly are not subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax, before Tuesday, 9 November 2023 by 17:30 CET by submitting a properly completed and duly signed declaration in the form as set out in the Repurchase Document and available on the Company's website (www.ehc-company.com) in the 'Investor Relations' section under 'Business Combination Materials', will receive the Withheld Amount ultimately on Thursday, 30 November 2023.

The repurchased Public Shares will be held as treasury shares by the Company. Settlement of the Repurchase Offer will take place on 9 November 2023.

Following settlement of the Repurchase Offer, the share capital and warrants of the Company are as follows:

Public Shares previously outstanding 20,000,000
Public Shares previously held in treasury 150,000,000
Public Shares outstanding following settlement of the Repurchase Offer 1,238,962
Public Shares to be held in treasury following Settlement of the Repurchase Offer  
168,761,038
Class B ordinary shares outstanding 6,666,666
Redeemable class A warrants* 6,666,666
Class B warrants* 6,768,000

 

*The result in response to the proposal of the Company's board to have all redeemable class A warrants and class B warrants expire worthless on the original business combination deadline, being 17 November 2023 and, therefore, to amend the terms and conditions of the Company's warrants (the "Proposed Amendment of the Warrant T&C") will be announced on 10 November 2023 following the expiry of the deadline of the Proposed Amendment of the Warrant T&C on 9 November 2023, at 17:30 CET.
