RECOMMENDED ACQUISITION

of

Apax Global Alpha Limited ("AGA")

by

Janus Bidco Limited ("Bidco")

a newly-formed Guernsey limited company indirectly owned by an investment vehicle to be advised by Apax Partners LLP

to be effected by means of a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part VIII of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, as amended

COURT SANCTION OF THE SCHEME OF ARRANGEMENT

On 21 July 2025, the boards of Apax Global Alpha Limited ("AGA") and Janus Bidco Limited ("Bidco") announced that they had reached agreement on the terms of a recommended cash acquisition of the entire issued and to be issued share capital of AGA by Bidco (the "Acquisition"). Bidco shall be equity funded by one or more funds accounts or persons managed, advised or sub-advised by Ares Management LLC and/or its Affiliates.

The Acquisition is intended to be implemented by way of a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part VIII of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, as amended (the "Scheme"). The scheme document in connection with the Scheme was published and sent by AGA to AGA Shareholders on 13 August 2025 (the "Scheme Document").

Further to the announcement made by AGA on 4 September 2025 in relation to the results of the Court Meeting and General Meeting, AGA and Bidco are pleased to announce that the Royal Court of Guernsey has today issued an order sanctioning the Scheme under Part VIII of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008 (the "Court Order"). 

Terms used but not defined in this announcement have the same meanings as in the Scheme Document.

Next Steps

There has been no change to the expected timetable for the transaction announced by AGA on 19 August 2025.

The last date for dealings in, and for registrations of transfers of, and disablement in CREST of, AGA Shares is expected to be 16 September 2025. The Scheme Record Time is expected to be 6.00 p.m. on 16 September 2025. The listing of AGA Shares on the Official List and of dealings in AGA Shares on London Stock Exchange is expected to be suspended with effect from 7.30 a.m. on 17 September 2025.

It is expected that the Scheme will become Effective on 17 September 2025 as soon as the Court Order is delivered to the Guernsey Registry. Subject to the Scheme becoming Effective, the cancellation of admission to listing and trading of AGA Shares on the London Stock Exchange is expected to take place by no later than 8.00 a.m. on 18 September 2025. 

A further announcement will be made when the Scheme has become Effective and when the admission to listing and trading of AGA Shares have been cancelled. 

All times referred to in this announcement are London and Guernsey times unless otherwise stated. If any of the expected times and/or dates above change, the revised times and/or dates will be notified to AGA Shareholders by announcement through a Regulatory Information Service. Such announcement will, subject to certain restrictions relating to persons in Restricted Jurisdictions, also be available on AGA's website at https://www.apaxglobalalpha.com/investor-centre/offer.

Restricted Jurisdictions and Restricted Shareholders

The release, publication or distribution of this Announcement in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, in or into or from jurisdictions other than the United Kingdom or Guernsey may be restricted by law and/or regulations of those jurisdictions. Persons who are not resident in the United Kingdom or Guernsey or who are subject to the laws and regulations of other jurisdictions should inform themselves of, and observe, such restrictions and any applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

Unless otherwise determined by Bidco or required by the Takeover Code, and permitted by applicable law and regulation, the Acquisition shall not be made available, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws or regulations in that jurisdiction and no person may vote in favour of the Acquisition by any such use, means, instrumentality (including, without limitation, facsimile, email or other electronic transmission, telex or telephone) or from within a Restricted Jurisdiction or any other jurisdiction if to do so would constitute a violation of the laws and regulations of that jurisdiction. Accordingly, copies of this Announcement and all documents relating to the Acquisition are not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise forwarded, distributed or sent in, into or from a Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws or regulations in that jurisdiction, and persons receiving this Announcement and all documents relating to the Acquisition (including custodians, nominees and trustees) must not mail or otherwise forward, distribute or send them in, into or from such jurisdictions where to do so would violate the laws or regulations in those jurisdictions. If the Acquisition is implemented by way of a Takeover Offer (unless otherwise permitted by applicable law and regulation), such Takeover Offer may not be made available directly or indirectly, into or from or by the use of mails or any means or instrumentality (including, but not limited to, facsimile, e-mail or other electronic transmission, telex or telephone) of interstate or foreign commerce of, or of any facility of a national, state or other securities exchange of any Restricted Jurisdiction and the Takeover Offer may not be capable of acceptance by any such use, means, instrumentality or facilities.

The availability of the Acquisition or of Rollover Shares to Scheme Shareholders who are not resident in the United Kingdom or Guernsey (and, in particular, their ability to vote their Scheme Shares with respect to the Scheme at the Court Meeting, or to appoint another person as proxy to vote at the Court Meeting on their behalf) may be affected by the laws or regulations of the relevant jurisdictions in which they are resident. Persons who are not resident in the United Kingdom or Guernsey should inform themselves of, and observe, any applicable requirements, as any failure to comply with such requirements may constitute a violation of the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the companies and persons involved in the Acquisition disclaim any responsibility or liability for the violation of such restrictions by any person.

The Acquisition shall be subject to the applicable requirements of the law of Guernsey, the Companies Law, the Court, the Takeover Code, the Panel, the London Stock Exchange, the Financial Conduct Authority and the Listing Rules.

The Alternative Offer is available only to Eligible Scheme Shareholders. Restricted Shareholders may not elect to participate in the Alternative Offer.

Additional Information for UK and EEA Investors

New Fund is registered by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission as a closed-ended collective investment scheme registered pursuant to the Protection of Investors (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law, 2020 and the Registered Collective Investment Scheme Rules and Guidance, 2021 and is an internally-managed AIF for purposes of the EU Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (2011/61/EU) and the UK Alternative Investment Fund Managers Regulations 2013. Within the UK and the EEA, the Alternative Offer will be made only to Eligible Scheme Shareholders who are: (i) eligible for categorisation as professional investors in accordance with Annex II to the EU Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (2014/65/EU) or Article 2(1)(8) of Regulation (EU) 600/2014 on markets in financial instruments (as onshored in the UK), as applicable; and (ii) domiciled or have their registered office in jurisdictions where New Fund is registered for marketing under applicable national private placement regimes.

Additional Information for US Investors

The Acquisition is being made to acquire the securities of a Guernsey company by means of a scheme of arrangement provided for under Part VIII of the Companies Law, which is subject to Guernsey disclosure requirements (which are different from those of the US). A transaction effected by means of a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the proxy solicitation or tender offer rules under the US Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Scheme is subject to disclosure requirements and practices applicable to schemes of arrangement involving a target company incorporated in Guernsey, admitted to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market, which are different from the disclosure requirements of the US under the US proxy solicitation and tender offer rules.

It is not expected that New Fund will be required to register the New Fund Shares or any other security of New Fund under Section 12(g) or any other provision of the US Exchange Act.

AGA's financial statements, and all financial information included in this Announcement, or any other documents relating to the Acquisition, have been or will have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards applicable in Guernsey and the UK and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the US.

Neither the US Securities and Exchange Commission nor any US state securities commission has approved or disproved or passed judgment upon the fairness or the merits of the Acquisition or determined if this Announcement is adequate, accurate or complete.

If Bidco were to elect to implement the Acquisition by means of a Takeover Offer, such Takeover Offer would be made in compliance with applicable US laws and regulations, including to the extent applicable Section 14(e) of the US Exchange Act and Regulation 14E thereunder, and in accordance with the Takeover Code. Such a takeover would be made in the United States by Bidco and no one else.

US holders should note that it is intended that, after Completion, AGA will elect to be classified as an entity disregarded as separate from its owner for US federal income tax purposes (the "AGA CTB Election"). US holders should be aware that the transactions contemplated herein and the AGA CTB Election will have US tax consequences. US holders' attention is drawn to Part 9 (Taxation) of the Scheme Document which contains a summary of certain US federal income tax considerations for US holders in respect of the Acquisition and the AGA CTB Election. This summary is intended as a general guide only, does not constitute tax advice and does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential US tax consequences of the Acquisition or the AGA CTB Election. US holders are urged to consult with appropriate legal, tax and financial advisers in connection with the tax consequences of the Acquisition and the AGA CTB Election applicable to them.

The Rollover Shares issued under the Alternative Offer will not be registered under the US Securities Act or under relevant securities laws of any state or territory or other jurisdiction of the United States and New Fund has not and will not be registered under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "US Investment Company Act"), in reliance on Section 7(d) thereof. Accordingly, the Rollover Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States, except in a transaction not subject to, or in reliance on an applicable exemption from, the registration requirements of the US Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws and are only available in a transaction that does not involve a public offering in the United States to investors in the U.S. who are (A) "qualified purchasers" as defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the US Investment Company Act or (B) "knowledgeable employees" as defined in Rule 3c-5 of the US Investment Company Act. Investors in or domiciled in the US will be required to execute and deliver a US investor letter in which, amongst other things, they certify their eligibility to purchase the Rollover Shares and their understanding of the resale restrictions applicable to them, and agree to abide by certain restrictions in the resale of the Rollover Shares. New Fund expects to issue the Rollover Shares in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements under the US Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof ("Section 3(a)(10)"). Section 3(a)(10) exempts securities issued in specified exchange transactions from the registration requirement under the US Securities Act where, among other requirements, the fairness of the terms and conditions of the issuance and exchange of such securities have been approved by a court or governmental authority expressly authorised by law to grant such approval, after a hearing upon the fairness of the terms and conditions of the exchange at which all persons to whom the Rollover Shares are proposed to be issued have the right to appear and receive adequate and timely notice thereof. If the exemption afforded by Section 3(a)(10) is not available to New Fund, then New Fund expects to avail itself of another available exemption to the registration requirements under the US Securities Act. If Bidco exercises its right to implement the acquisition of the AGA Shares by way of a Takeover Offer, the Rollover Shares will not be offered in the US except pursuant to an exemption from or in a transaction not subject to registration under the US Securities Act.

The Rollover Shares issued pursuant to the Acquisition will not be registered under any laws of any state, district or other jurisdiction of the United States, and may only be issued to persons resident in such state, district or other jurisdiction pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the US Securities Act. The Rollover Shares will not be listed on any stock exchange. Neither the US Securities and Exchange Commission nor any US state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the Alternative Offer, passed any opinion upon the fairness of the Acquisition or the Alternative Offer nor has determined (nor will they determine) if this Announcement is accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence.

US holders who are or will be affiliates of the New Fund Group or AGA prior to, or of the New Fund Group after, the Effective Date will be subject to certain US transfer restrictions relating to the Rollover Shares received pursuant to the Scheme.

For the purposes of qualifying for the exemption from the registration requirements of the US Securities Act in respect of the Rollover Shares issued pursuant to the Alternative Offer afforded by Section 3(a)(10), the New Fund Group will advise the Court that its sanctioning of the Scheme will be relied upon by the New Fund Group as an approval of the Scheme following a hearing on its fairness to AGA Shareholders.

It may be difficult for US holders of AGA Shares to enforce their rights and any claims arising out of the US federal securities laws, since AGA is located in a country other than the US, and all of its officers and directors are residents of countries other than the US. US holders of AGA Shares may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its Affiliates to subject themselves to a US court's judgement.

In accordance with normal UK practice and consistent with Rule 14e-5 under the US Exchange Act, Bidco, certain Affiliated companies and the nominees or brokers (acting as agents) may from time to time make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, shares in AGA outside of the US, other than pursuant to the Acquisition, until the date on which the Acquisition and/or Scheme becomes effective, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn. If such purchases or arrangements to purchase were to be made they would occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices and will comply with applicable law, including to the extent applicable the US Exchange Act. Any information about such purchases or arrangements to purchase will be disclosed as required in the United Kingdom, will be reported to a Regulatory Information Service and will be available on the London Stock Exchange website at www.londonstockexchange.com.

Forward-looking statements

This Announcement (including information incorporated by reference in this Announcement), oral statements made regarding the Acquisition, and other information published by Bidco and AGA contain certain statements, beliefs or opinions, with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of Bidco and AGA which are or may be deemed to be "forward-looking statements". Forward-looking statements are prospective in nature and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections of the management of Bidco and/or AGA (as the case may be) about future events, and are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements often use words such as "anticipate", "target", "expect", "envisage", "estimate", "intend", "plan", "goal", "believe", "hope", "aims", "continue", "will", "may", "should", "would", "could", or other words of similar meaning and including statements relating to future capital expenditures, expenses, revenues, economic performance, financial conditions, dividend policy, losses and future prospects and business and management strategies and the expansion and growth of the operations of Bidco or AGA. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are based on assumptions and assessments made by AGA, and/or Bidco, in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, future developments and other factors they believe appropriate. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty, because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future and the factors described in the context of such forward-looking statements in this Announcement could cause actual results, performance or achievements of any such person, or industry results and developments, to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given by AGA and Bidco that such expectations will prove to have been correct and you are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as at the date of this Announcement.

The forward-looking statements speak only at the date of this Announcement. All subsequent oral or written forward-looking statements attributable to any member of the New Fund Group or AGA Group, or any of their respective associates, directors, officers, employees or advisers, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above. Neither AGA nor Bidco nor Apax assumes any obligation and AGA and Bidco and Apax disclaim any intention or obligation, to update or correct the information contained in this Announcement (whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise), except as required by applicable law or regulation (including under the Listing Rules).

Except as expressly provided in this Announcement, the forward-looking statements have not been reviewed by the auditors of AGA, Apax or Bidco or their respective financial advisers. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results and are based on certain key assumptions. There are several factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements is the satisfaction of the conditions, as well as additional factors such as changes in global, political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory forces, future exchange and interest rates, changes in tax rates and future business combinations or dispositions. Such forward-looking statements should therefore be construed in the light of such factors. Neither Bidco nor AGA, nor any of their respective associates or directors, officers or advisers, provides any representation, assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements in this Announcement will actually occur.

No Profit Forecasts, Profit Estimates or Quantified Financial Benefits Statements

No statement in this Announcement is intended as a profit forecast, profit estimate or quantified financial benefits statement for any period and no statement in this Announcement should be interpreted to mean that earnings or earnings per share for AGA for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings or earnings per share for AGA.

Disclosure Requirements of the Takeover Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Takeover Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, if later, following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of: (i) the offeree company; and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th Business Day following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th Business Day following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Takeover Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of: (i) the offeree company; and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the Business Day following the date of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).

Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the offer period commenced and when any offeror was first identified.
