Pagaya Technologies LTD. (NASDAQ: PGY) (“Pagaya” or the “Company”), a global technology company delivering AI-driven product solutions for the financial ecosystem, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Pagaya US Holding Company LLC (“Pagaya US”), intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $125 million aggregate principal amount of exchangeable senior notes due 2029 (the “notes”) in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Pagaya US also expects to grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $18.75 million principal amount of notes.

The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Pagaya US, will accrue interest payable semi-annually in arrears and will mature on October 1, 2029, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or exchanged. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding July 2, 2029, the notes will be exchangeable at the option of the holders of notes only upon the satisfaction of specified conditions and during certain periods. On or after July 2, 2029 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, the notes will be exchangeable at the option of the holders of the notes at any time regardless of these conditions. Subject to certain conditions, Pagaya US may settle exchanges of the notes by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, Class A ordinary shares of Pagaya or a combination of cash and Class A ordinary shares of Pagaya, at the election of Pagaya US. The notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a senior unsecured basis, by Pagaya.

The notes will not be redeemable prior to October 5, 2027. The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations on partial redemptions), for cash at the option of Pagaya US at any time, and from time to time, on or after October 5, 2027 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per Class A ordinary share of Pagaya exceeds 130% of the exchange price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. The interest rate, initial exchange rate and other terms of the notes will be determined at the pricing of the offering.

If a “fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture for the notes) occurs, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require Pagaya US to repurchase their notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.

Pagaya US intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the notes to repay secured borrowing under its repurchase agreements, for general corporate purposes and to pay related fees and expenses. If the initial purchasers exercise their option to purchase additional notes, then Pagaya US intends to use the additional net proceeds from the sale of the additional notes to further repay secured borrowing under its repurchase agreements.

The offer and sale of the notes, the guarantee and any Class A ordinary shares of Pagaya deliverable upon exchange of the notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any other securities laws, and the notes and any such shares cannot be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the notes or any Class A ordinary shares of Pagaya deliverable upon exchange of the notes, nor will there be any sale of the notes or any such shares, in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful.
