First Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement

As previously disclosed, on August 2, 2021, VPC Impact Acquisition Holdings II, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“VIH”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among VIH, AG1 Holdings, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“Holdco”), AG2 Holdings, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“Merger Sub”), FinAccel Pte. 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”.

On September 29, 2021, VIH, Holdco, Merger Sub, Target Company and the Shareholders Representative pursuant to Section 13.18 of the Business Combination Agreement entered into the First Amendment to Business Combination Agreement (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the Business Combination Agreement was amended to amend the definition of “Minimum Available Cash Amount” to mean an amount equal to Three Hundred Ten million dollars ($310,000,000) along with certain other technical clarifications.

All other terms of the Business Combination Agreement, which was previously filed by VIH as Exhibit 2.1 to VIH’s Current Report on Form 8-K on August 2, 2021, remain unchanged.

The foregoing summary description of the Amendment is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Subscription Agreements

As previously disclosed, on August 2, 2021, Holdco entered into subscription agreements with certain investors (the “Original PIPE Investors” and such agreements, the “Subscription Agreements”), pursuant to which such Original PIPE Investors subscribed for Class A ordinary shares of Holdco, par value $0.00001 per share (“Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares”) (in the form of American Depository Shares representing Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares, “Holdco Class A ADSs”) to be issued in a private placement for $10.00 per share concurrently at the consummation of the acquisition by Holdco of the Target Company as contemplated in the Business Combination Agreement (such consummation, the “Closing”) for an aggregate purchase price of $120 million. On September 29, 2021, additional investors (the “Additional PIPE Investors”) subscribed for Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) to be issued in a private placement for $10.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $6 million concurrently at Closing, by entering into Subscription Agreements in substantially the same form of Subscription Agreement as entered into between the Original PIPE Investors and Holdco, which was previously filed by VIH as Exhibit 10.1 to VIH’s Current Report on Form 8-K on August 2, 2021.

The foregoing description of the transactions with respect to the Subscription Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Subscription Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The shares of Holdco Class A Ordinary Shares (in the form of Holdco Class A ADSs) to be issued in connection with the PIPE Financing substantially concurrently at the Closing will not be registered under the Securities Act, and will be issued in reliance on the exemption from registration requirements thereof provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.


Forward-Looking Statements

This document includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed transaction between FinAccel Pte. Ltd. (“FinAccel”), AG1 Holdings, Ltd. (“Kredivo”) and VIH, and also contains certain financial forecasts and projections. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this document, including, but not limited to, statements as to future results of operations and financial position, planned products and services, business strategy and plans, objectives of management for future operations of FinAccel, market size and growth opportunities, competitive position, technological and market trends and the potential benefits and expectations related to the terms and timing of the proposed transactions, are forward-looking statements. Some of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words, including “anticipate,” “expect,” “suggests,” “plan,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimates,” “targets,” “projects,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “may,” “will,” “forecast” or other similar expressions. All forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and forecasts and reflect the views, assumptions, expectations, and opinions of VIH and FinAccel, which are all subject change due to various factors including, without limitation, changes in general economic conditions as a result of COVID-19. Any such estimates, assumptions, expectations, forecasts, views or opinions, whether or not identified in this document, should be regarded as indicative, preliminary and for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results.

The forward-looking statements and financial forecasts and projections contained in this document are subject to a number of factors, risks and uncertainties. Potential risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; the timing and structure of the business combination; changes to the proposed structure of the business combination that may be required or appropriate as a result of applicable laws or regulations; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the business combination, the PIPE investment and other transactions in connection therewith, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic or the risk that any regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the business combination or that the approval of the shareholders of VIH or FinAccel is not obtained; the risk that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations of VIH or FinAccel as a result of the announcement and consummation of the business combination; the ability of FinAccel to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees including its chief executive officer and executive team; the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of the post-acquisition company’s securities on Nasdaq following the business combination; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of business combination; risk relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to FinAccel; the amount of redemption requests made by VIH’s shareholders and the amount of funds available in the VIH trust account; the overall level of demand for FinAccel’s services; general economic conditions and other factors affecting FinAccel’s business; FinAccel’s ability to implement its business strategy; FinAccel’s ability to manage expenses; changes in applicable laws and governmental regulation and the impact of such changes on FinAccel’s business, FinAccel’s exposure to litigation claims and other loss contingencies; the risks associated with negative press or reputational harm; disruptions and other impacts to FinAccel’s business, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and government actions and restrictive measures implemented in response; FinAccel’s ability to protect patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights; any breaches of, or interruptions in, FinAccel’s technology infrastructure; changes in tax laws and liabilities; and changes in legal, regulatory, political and economic risks and the impact of such changes on FinAccel’s business. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of Kredivo’s registration statement on Form F-4, the proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus discussed below, VIH’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other documents filed by Kredivo or VIH from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, there may be additional risks that neither VIH nor FinAccel presently know, or that VIH or FinAccel currently believe are immaterial, that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect VIH’s and FinAccel’s expectations, plans, projections or forecasts of future events and view. If any of the risks materialize or VIH’s or FinAccel’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements.


Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. VIH and FinAccel anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause their assessments to change. However, while Kredivo, VIH and FinAccel may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Kredivo, VIH and FinAccel specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except as required by law. The inclusion of any statement in this document does not constitute an admission by FinAccel nor VIH or any other person that the events or circumstances described in such statement are material. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing VIH’s or FinAccel’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this document. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. In addition, the analyses of FinAccel and VIH contained herein are not, and do not purport to be, appraisals of the securities, assets or business of the FinAccel, VIH or any other entity.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This document may also include references to non-IFRS financial measures. Such non-IFRS measures should be considered only as supplemental to, and not as superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, and such non-IFRS measures may be different from non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies.

Important Information About the Proposed Transactions and Where to Find It

This document relates to a proposed transaction between FinAccel and VIH. This document does not constitute an offer to sell or exchange, or the solicitation of an offer to buy or exchange, any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or exchange would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. The proposed transactions will be submitted to shareholders of VIH for their consideration.

Kredivo intends to file a registration statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC which will include preliminary and definitive proxy statements to be distributed to VIH’s shareholders in connection with VIH’s solicitation for proxies for the vote by VIH’s shareholders in connection with the proposed transactions and other matters as described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer of the securities to be issued to FinAccel’s shareholders in connection with the completion of the proposed business combination. VIH and Kredivo also will file other documents regarding the proposed transaction with the SEC.

After the Registration Statement has been filed and declared effective, VIH will mail a definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents to its shareholders as of the record date established for voting on the proposed transactions. This communication is not a substitute for the Registration Statement, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus or any other document that VIH will send to its shareholders in connection with the business combination. VIH’s shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read, once available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and any amendments thereto and, once available, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus, in connection with VIH’s solicitation of proxies for its special meeting of shareholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed transactions, because these documents will contain important information about VIH, Kredivo, FinAccel and the proposed transactions. Shareholders and investors may also obtain a copy of the preliminary or definitive proxy statement, once available, as well as other documents filed with the SEC regarding the proposed transactions and other documents filed with the SEC by VIH, without charge, at the SEC’s website located at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to VIH. The information contained on, or that may be accessed through, the websites referenced in this document is not incorporated by reference into, and is not a part of, this document.
