During the Post-Closing Acceptance Period, Shareholders have no right to withdraw Shares from the Offer, whether validly tendered (or defectively tendered, provided that such defect has been waived by the Offeror) during the Acceptance Period or during the Post-Closing Acceptance Period.
Delisting
Prosus and JET intend to procure the delisting of the Ordinary Shares on Euronext Amsterdam as soon as reasonably practicable. Delisting may further adversely affect the liquidity and market value of any Shares not tendered.
Composition of Management Board and Supervisory Board of JET
The composition of the Supervisory Board and Management Board of JET will not change upon Settlement.
Upon delisting, the changes to the composition of the Supervisory Board of JET, as approved by the EGM on 8 July 2025, will become effective. As of the date of the delisting, Dick Boer, Abbe Luersman, Angela Noon, Lloyd Frink and Mieke De Schepper will resign as members of the Supervisory Board of JET, and the appointments of Prosus' nominees Roberto Gandolfo, Fabricio Bloisi and Fahd Beg, will become effective.
If the Company is dissolved and liquidated as part of the Asset Sale and Liquidation, the members of the Supervisory Board of JET will resign upon the appointment of the Liquidator, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.11(f) (Asset Sale and Liquidation) and Section 5.18(c) (Post-Offer Restructuring Resolutions) of the Offer Memorandum.
Further implications of the Offer being declared unconditional
Remaining Shareholders who do not wish to tender their Shares in the Post-Closing Acceptance Period should carefully review the sections of the Offer Memorandum that further explain the intentions of the Offeror, such as (but not limited to) section 5.11 (Implications of the Offer being declared unconditional), which describes certain implications to which such Shareholders may become subject with their continued shareholding in JET.
This includes Prosus' and JET's intention to implement the Asset Sale and Liquidation, which is described in detail in Section 5.11(f) (Asset Sale and Liquidation) of the Offer Memorandum, as soon as reasonably practicable. During the EGM held on 8 July 2025, all resolutions in respect of the Asset Sale and Liquidation were adopted.
Repurchase of convertible bonds
JET separately announces an invitation to the holders of all of its outstanding convertible bonds (together the "Bonds") to tender their Bonds for purchase by the Company for cash (the "Bonds Tender Offer"). More details on the Bonds Tender Offer will be announced imminently via JET's website on https://www.justeattakeaway.com/investors/offerings-and-transactions/default.aspx.
To finance the repurchase of the Bonds, Prosus and JET today entered into a convertible loan agreement pursuant to which Prosus will, subject to the Offer having been settled, make available to JET a convertible loan in an aggregate principal amount of up to approx. EUR 802 million on arm's length terms (the "Loan").
The Loan has a maturity of twelve (12) months and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.50% per annum. At any time after Settlement, the Offeror may convert all or part of the outstanding principal amount under the Loan plus accrued but unpaid interest into newly issued Ordinary Shares of JET, each at a fixed conversion price of EUR 20.30 per Ordinary Share.
To the extent the newly issued Ordinary Shares upon conversion would exceed the authorisation of JET from the general meeting to issue new shares, the conversion of such part of the Loan will be conditional on the adoption of the relevant resolutions by JET's general meeting of shareholders.
Settlement of the Company Incentive Plans
Unvested STI and LTI grants under the Company's Management Board incentive plans will vest immediately prior to Settlement in accordance with Section 6.11(b) (Treatment of JET Incentive Plans until and at Settlement) of the Offer Memorandum. Pursuant to irrevocable undertakings dated 23 February 2025, the Company's Management Board members have undertaken to tender all Shares held by or on their behalf under the Offer. Accordingly, JET will, on behalf of the Company's (former) Management Board members, tender the accelerated vested Shares under the Offer during the Post-Closing Acceptance Period.

General restrictions
This press release contains information that qualifies or may qualify as inside information within the meaning of Article 7(1) of the EU Market Abuse Regulation.
The information in this announcement is not intended to be complete. This announcement is for information purposes only and does not constitute an offer or an invitation to acquire or dispose of any securities or investment advice or an inducement to enter into investment activity. This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or issue or the solicitation of an offer to buy or acquire the securities of the Company in any jurisdiction.
The distribution of this press release may, in some countries, be restricted by law or regulation. Accordingly, persons who come into possession of this document should inform themselves of and observe these restrictions. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Offeror and the Company disclaim any responsibility or liability for the violation of any such restrictions by any person. Any failure to comply with these restrictions may constitute a violation of the securities laws of that jurisdiction. Neither the Company, nor the Offeror, nor any of their advisers assume any responsibility for any violation by any person of any of these restrictions. The Company shareholders in any doubt as to their position should consult an appropriate professional adviser without delay. This announcement is not to be released, published or distributed, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, in any jurisdiction in which such release, publication or distribution would be unlawful.
The Offer is made for all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares, American depositary shares and CREST depositary interests of JET, which is a public company incorporated and listed in the Netherlands, and will be subject to Dutch disclosure and procedural requirements. The Offer is made to JET shareholders in the United States in compliance with the applicable U.S. tender offer rules under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "U.S. Exchange Act"), and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of Dutch law. Accordingly, the Offer is subject to disclosure and other procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal rights, the Offer timetable, settlement procedures and timing of payments that are different from those applicable under U.S. domestic tender offer law and practice.
Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any U.S. state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the Offer, passed upon the merits or fairness of the Offer, or determined if this announcement or the Offer documents are accurate or complete.
The Offer may have consequences under U.S. federal income tax and applicable U.S. state and local, as well as non-U.S., tax laws for JET shareholders. Each JET shareholder is urged to consult his or her independent professional adviser regarding the tax consequences of the Offer.

It may not be possible to bring an action against JET, Prosus, or their respective officers or directors (as applicable), in a non-U.S. court for violations of U.S. law, including the U.S. securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-U.S. company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court's judgement. In addition, it may be difficult to enforce in the Netherlands original actions, or actions for the enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.
