ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

15 December 2020

Recommended Takeover Offer for amaysim Australia Limited Complementary to Optus Mobile Sale

amaysim Australia Limited (ASX: AYS) ( amaysim or the Company ) and WAM Capital Limited (ASX: WAM) ( WAM ) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a bid implementation agreement dated 14 December 2020 ( BIA ), under which it is proposed that WAM will make an agreed off-market takeover bid for 100% of the outstanding fully paid ordinary shares of amaysim, subject to certain conditions (the WAM Offer ).

The Board unanimously recommends shareholders accept the WAM Offer and the Directors have indicated that they each intend to accept the WAM Offer in respect of all amaysim shares they own or control, both in the absence of a superior proposal.

The WAM Offer is conditional upon amaysim shareholder approval of the sale of amaysim’s Mobile business ( Mobile Sale ) to Optus Mobile Pty Limited ( Optus ), which was announced on 2 November 2020 ( Mobile Sale Announcement ). On the basis that the WAM Offer relies on, and is supplemental to, the Mobile Sale, the amaysim Board considers that the WAM Offer is complementary to the Mobile Sale and enhances the overall outcome for shareholders . Optus has provided its consent to the making of this announcement.[1]

A copy of the BIA is attached as Annexure A for further information. Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms used in this announcement will have the meaning given in the Mobile Sale Announcement as supplemented by amaysim's Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum ( Notice of Meeting ) announced 3 December 2020.

Summary of WAM Offer

  • Under the WAM Offer, each amaysim shareholder may elect to receive either:

  • 1 WAM share for every 2.7 amaysim shares, representing A$0.833[2] of implied value per amaysim share (the Scrip Consideration );

  • cash consideration of A$0.695 per amaysim share (the Cash Consideration ); or

  • a combination of cash and scrip.

  • The WAM Offer is subject to customary conditions and WAM has provided an undertaking to amaysim that it will waive any remaining conditions immediately following completion of the Mobile Sale, expected to be on or around 1 February 2021.

  • If the WAM Offer remains open past the Record Date for the major distribution of proceeds from the Mobile Sale ( Major Distribution ), the consideration will be reduced for shareholders whose acceptances of the WAM Offer take effect after that Record Date, by the amount of the Major Distribution (without any associated adjustment with respect to franking credits).

1 Optus’ consent was provided in connection with its rights in respect of the Mobile Sale only and it takes no responsibility in respect of this announcement.

2 Based on WAM’s closing price of $2.25 per share on 14 December 2020. The implied value of the WAM Offer (measured by reference to the Scrip Consideration) depends on the value of WAM’s share price at the time of any acceptance into the WAM Offer.

==> picture [142 x 28] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [163 x 26] intentionally omitted <==

  • As the WAM Offer is conditional on amaysim shareholders approving the Mobile Sale to Optus, or an alternative superior proposal, and opens subsequent to the completion of the Mobile Sale, the WAM Offer is considered complementary to the Mobile Sale by delivering enhanced value, optionality and faster payment for amaysim shareholders.

  • The WAM Offer will open on the latter to occur of 1 February 2021 and the first business day after completion of the Mobile Sale, at which point the WAM Offer will be declared unconditional and will remain open at least until the day prior to the Record Date for the Major Distribution. In order to facilitate the WAM Offer, the Record Date of the Major Distribution will be amended from 12 March 2021 as shown in the Notice of Meeting to 31 March 2021[3] . Accepting amaysim shareholders will be paid within 5 business days of the processing of valid acceptances into the WAM Offer.

  • The implied value of the WAM Offer (Scrip Consideration) reflects a 28.4%[4] premium to amaysim's 1 month VWAP[4] up until 30 October 2020 (last trading day prior to the Mobile Sale being announced) and a 12.6% premium to amaysim's VWAP since the Mobile Sale was announced.[5]

Update to Distribution range

As detailed in the Notice of Meeting, amaysim expected shareholders would receive Distributions from amaysim through its delisting and wind-up process, of between A$0.67 per share and A$0.73 per share, with a midpoint of A$0.70 per share.

It is expected that amaysim will incur additional incremental transaction costs of approximately A$1.5 million directly associated with the WAM Offer, should the WAM Offer open and become unconditional.

This will reduce the cash available for Distribution by amaysim through its wind-up process by approximately $1.5 million or A$0.005 per share. The A$0.005 per share reduction is expected to reduce the Final Distribution (as detailed in the Notice of Meeting) such that the Final Distribution is now expected to be in the range of A$0.065 per share and A$0.125 per share (with a midpoint of A$0.095 per share) instead of the A$0.07 per share to A$0.13 per share (with a midpoint of A$0.10 per share).

Accordingly, amaysim expects shareholders would receive Distributions from amaysim through its windup process, of between A$0.665 per share and A$0.725 per share with a midpoint of A$0.695.

Board Recommendation

The Board of amaysim views the WAM Offer as complementary to the Mobile Sale to Optus.

The Board unanimously recommends shareholders accept the WAM Offer and the Directors have indicated that they each intend to accept the WAM Offer in respect of all amaysim shares they own or control, both in the absence of a superior proposal.

3 If the Mobile Sale completion date extends beyond 1 February 2021, the Record Date will also be extended by the corresponding delay

4 amaysim's last close price on 30 October 2020, prior to Mobile Sale Announcement of A$0.67 and 1 month VWAP up until 30 October 2020 of A$0.65 and a 3 month VWAP up until 30 October 2020 of A$0.67

5 amaysim’s VWAP from 2 November 2020 to 14 December 2020 (inclusive) of A$0.74

==> picture [163 x 26] intentionally omitted <==

Each shareholder should have regard to their own individual circumstances in determining whether to accept the Scrip Consideration or the Cash Consideration, however the Board’s view is that:

  • Ineligible Foreign Shareholders[6] should either:

  • § accept the Cash Consideration on the basis that it is more beneficial to receive A$0.695 per amaysim share now from WAM than total Distributions of between A$0.665 and A$0.725 per amaysim share over a period of time from amaysim through its windup process; or alternatively they may wish to sell their amaysim shares on market[7] ; or

  • § accept the Scrip Consideration under which a nominee will sell those new WAM shares issued under the WAM Offer and return the cash proceeds to them, in which case the Ineligible Foreign Shareholders may be better off; and

  • all other shareholders should accept the Scrip Consideration and, subject to their risk profile and market conditions, may wish to either hold their WAM Shares or sell those WAM shares on market.

Although the Board recommends that shareholders accept the WAM Offer in accordance with the above, it acknowledges that some amaysim shareholders may wish to retain their shareholding in amaysim until after the Record Date considering that the franked component of the Major Distribution could deliver additional value to shareholders who can make use of franking credits to differing degrees depending on their own personal tax circumstances.

The Scrip Consideration, however, already offers a premium[8 ] exceeding that value, and amaysim shareholders wanting access to the Major Distribution may not have access to the WAM Offer as a result. There is no certainty that the WAM Offer will remain open after the Record Date for that distribution, and shareholders who elect to retain their amaysim shares in order to obtain the franked dividend may have to retain their shares until all Distributions are completed, or sell on market if the WAM Offer is not open at that time. Provided that the Mobile Sale completes, amaysim shareholders not accepting the WAM Offer will not impact the WAM Offer as the minimum acceptance condition of 50.1% will be waived upon completion of the Mobile Sale.

6 An Ineligible Foreign Shareholder is an amaysim shareholder whose registered address is outside of Australia and its external territories or New Zealand, unless WAM determines that it is lawful, not unduly onerous and not unduly impractical to issue WAM shares to that shareholder. In the case of shareholders in Germany, the WAM Offer has not been, and will not be, registered with or approved by any securities regulator in Germany or elsewhere in the European Union. Accordingly, the WAM Offer may not be made available, nor may the WAM shares be offered, in Germany except in circumstances that do not require a prospectus under Article 1(4) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union (the Prospectus Regulation ). In accordance with Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation, an offer of WAM shares in Germany is limited:

  • to persons who are "qualified investors" (as defined in Article 2(e) of the Prospectus Regulation);

  • to fewer than 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors); or

  • in any other circumstance falling within Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation.

In the case of shareholders in the United States, the WAM Offer does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities in the United States (US). The WAM shares to be issued under the Offer have not been, and will not be, registered under the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended (US Securities Act) or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the US. Accordingly, the WAM shares may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, to any person in the US or to, or for the account or benefit of, a US person (as defined in Regulation S under the US Securities Act), except in a transaction exempt from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the US Securities Act and applicable US securities laws.

7 The closing price of amaysim shares on 14 December 2020 was A$0.73. There can be no assurance that the amaysim share price will continue to trade above the Cash Consideration of A$0.695.

8 Based on WAM’s closing price of A$2.25 per share on 14 December 2020. The implied value of the WAM Offer (measured by reference to the Scrip Consideration) depends on the value of WAM’s share price at the time of any acceptance into the WAM Offer.

The Board maintains its unanimous recommendation to vote in favour of all resolutions contained in the Notice of Meeting issued on 3 December 2020 including the Mobile Sale and Distributions, subject to no superior proposal.

Overview of WAM Offer

Following announcement of the Mobile Sale to Optus on 2 November 2020, WAM approached amaysim with a proposal to acquire all of the shares in amaysim by way of an off-market takeover bid, conditional on amaysim’s shareholders approving the Mobile Sale, and the Mobile Sale being completed.

WAM Offer Consideration

Under the WAM Offer, WAM is offering amaysim shareholders the following:

  • Scrip Consideration of 1 WAM share for every 2.7 amaysim shares, representing A$0.833[9] of implied value per amaysim share;

  • Cash Consideration of A$0.695 cash per amaysim share; or

  • a combination of scrip or cash.

If no election is made, the default option for accepting amaysim shareholders will be Scrip Consideration.

If the WAM Offer remains open past the Record Date for the Major Distribution, the consideration will be reduced for shareholders whose acceptances of the WAM Offer take effect after that Record Date, by the value of the Major Distribution (without any associated adjustment with respect to franking credits).

For example, a shareholder who accepts the WAM Offer after the Record Date for the Major Distribution of A$0.50, and elects the Scrip Consideration, would receive share consideration of 1 WAM share for every 6.75 amaysim shares worth A$0.333, being an equivalent A$0.50 reduction from A$0.833, whereas a shareholder who accepts the WAM Offer after the Record Date for the Major Distribution, and elects the Cash Consideration, would receive A$0.195 per share (being A$0.695 less the A$0.50 Major Distribution).

In the event that amaysim announces a higher distribution than outlined in the Notice of Meeting, WAM has 4 business days to amend its Cash Consideration and match the new distribution forecast level announced by amaysim, or amaysim Directors may amend their recommendation of the WAM Offer.

The WAM Offer, assuming election of the default Scrip Consideration, delivers an attractive premium to amaysim shareholders when compared to the period before the Mobile Sale Announcement of:

  • 24.4% premium to the closing price[4] on 30 October 2020;

  • 12.4% premium to the closing price of amaysim shares on 14 December 2020;

  • 28.4% premium to the 1 month VWAP[4] of amaysim shares;

  • 24.4% premium to the 3 month VWAP[4] of amaysim shares; and

  • 12.6% premium to amaysim's VWAP since the Mobile Sale was announced.[10]

9 Based on WAM’s closing price of A$2.25 per share on 14 December 2020. The implied value of the WAM Offer (measured by reference to the Scrip Option) depends on the value of WAM’s share price at the time of any acceptance into the WAM Offer.

==> picture [163 x 26] intentionally omitted <==

In order to facilitate the WAM Offer, the Record Date of the Major Distribution will be amended from 12 March 2021 as shown in the Notice of Meeting to 31 March 2021, but the Major Distribution will continue to be paid on 27 April 2021. WAM has agreed to open the WAM Offer on the latter to occur of 1 February 2021 and the business day after the day on which completion of the Mobile Sale occurs and declare it unconditional once the Mobile Sale completes.

Rationale

Commenting on the WAM Offer, Geoff Wilson, Chairman and Chief Investment Officer of WAM said:

“We see a considerable opportunity to provide amaysim shareholders with a superior and complementary proposal. We look forward to welcoming the amaysim shareholders to the Wilson Asset Management family as we continue to grow WAM Capital”.

“We are pleased to receive the support of the amaysim Directors and senior management for the Offer and look forward to working with them to provide collective benefits to both WAM Capital and amaysim shareholders”.

For amaysim, the WAM Offer presents several important benefits:

  • Potential additional value above Mobile Sale cash Distributions: Shareholders who elect to receive the Scrip Consideration will receive A$0.833 per amaysim share of implied value, above the A$0.695 per share midpoint of the anticipated updated cash Distribution forecast[11] ;

  • Accelerated receipt of funds: Accepting amaysim shareholders will receive cash or scrip consideration within 5 business days of the processing of valid acceptances into the WAM Offer rather than through the series of cash Distributions post the Mobile Sale which would be paid over the period from March to October 2021; and

  • Additional optionality: Shareholders who elect to receive the Scrip Consideration will receive WAM Shares or can elect to receive a combination of cash and scrip.

Andrew Reitzer, amaysim Chairman commented: “The WAM Offer is complementary to the existing offer from Optus to acquire the Mobile business. It has no impact on the existing offer from Optus, but rather, provides amaysim shareholders with additional optionality to receive a higher return. It also removes the uncertainty in the current Distribution to shareholders that is dependent on the Company’s ability to cost efficiently wind-up and de-list.”

Consideration Funding

As at 30 November 2020, the investment portfolio of WAM was comprised of 9.4% cash (A$126.4million), with the remaining 90.6% predominantly comprised of liquid investments listed on the ASX. WAM's portfolio is predominately comprised of highly liquid investments, which WAM can liquidate at short notice if required to fund the cash component of the WAM Offer consideration and/or costs.

11Note that a portion of cash Distributions as contemplated in the Mobile Sale Announcement include a franked distribution component which could deliver additional value to shareholders who can make use of franking credits to differing degrees depending on their own personal tax circumstances (as an offset to their liability for Australian tax, although the franking credit itself needs to be included in taxable income and is therefore subject to tax in its own right). That benefit is not available to shareholders who accept the WAM Offer.

BIA / Conditions

The BIA between amaysim and WAM contains certain terms that are customary for a transaction of this nature. A copy of the BIA is annexed to this announcement.

These terms include deal protection mechanisms including "exclusivity", “no shop”, “no talk” and “no due diligence” restrictions (subject to customary fiduciary duty carve-outs) as well as notification and matching rights in the event of a competing proposal. There is no break fee.

The WAM Offer will also be subject to the following defeating conditions:

  • amaysim shareholder approval of the Mobile Sale (or alternative superior proposal) ( Shareholder Approval Condition );

  • WAM has a relevant interest in at least 50.1% (by number) of amaysim shares;

  • the Record Date for the Major Distribution following amaysim shareholder approval of the Mobile Sale will be no earlier than 31 March 2021;

  • no prescribed occurrences in relation to amaysim (other than in relation to the Mobile Sale);

  • no material adverse change in relation to amaysim (other than in relation to the Mobile Sale);

  • no material litigation;

  • no market fall of 10% or more;

  • amaysim and its subsidiaries do not vary their constitutions, give any encumbrance over their assets, or appointing any additional directors to their board of directors;

  • the grant of any regulatory or third party approvals which would otherwise impede the Mobile Sale or alternative superior proposal; and

  • no regulatory action which materially affects the WAM Offer.

Under the terms of the BIA, WAM has agreed to waive each of the defeating conditions immediately upon completion of the Mobile Sale. WAM has undertaken not to waive the Shareholder Approval Condition until the date the offer opens (i.e. until after the completion of the Mobile Sale).

Schedule 1 Agreed Bid Terms (clause 3)

1 Consideration

  • (a) The consideration under the Offer is a choice of:

  • (i) cash, at $0.695 for each Target Share ( Cash Consideration );

  • (ii) scrip, of one new Bidder Shares for every 2.7 Target Shares ( Scrip Consideration ); or approximately $0.833 worth of scrip value as at the date the parties issue the Agreed Announcement; or

  • (iii) a combination of both,

( Consideration ).

  • (b) If no election is made, the default consideration will be Scrip Consideration.

  • (c) If the Offer remains open past the record date for the Major Distribution following Target Shareholder approval of the Mobile Sale, the consideration will be reduced for Target Shareholders who accept the Offer after that record date, by an amount reflecting the value of that Major Distribution as set out below:

Scrip Consideration adjustment example

For example, on $0.50 per Target Share Major Distribution and assuming the value of WAM shares of $2.26/share, the $0.833 per Target Share would reduce by the $0.50 per Target Share and the Scrip Consideration would reduce as follows:

Value: $0.833 less $0.50 = $0.333

$0.833 / $0.333 = 2.5015

  • 2.5015 x 2.7 (Target scrip component) (being the 1 for 2.7 scrip formula) = 6.75 New scrip formula is 1 Bidder Share for 6.75 Target Shares

The value of the scrip formula based on the revised Target scrip component is then $0.333 per Target Share.

Cash Consideration

The cash value would be $0.195 per share ($0.695 less the $0.50 distribution).

  • (d) Bidder’s payment terms will be no more than five Business Days after the processing of valid acceptances into the Offer, once the Offer is unconditional.

  • (e) If the number of Target Shares held by a Target Shareholder means that their aggregate entitlement to Bidder Shares is not a whole number, then any fractional entitlement will be rounded to the nearest whole number.

  • (f) Target Shareholders will continue to be entitled to all dividends or other distributions, and all rights to receive any dividends or other distributions, declared or paid by Target in respect of the Target Shares they hold until they accept the Offer and it becomes unconditional.

  • (i) sell those Bidder Shares as soon as practicable following their issue, and in compliance with the nominee’s best execution obligations, including during the Offer Period; and

  • (c) In the event that the nominee is not permitted to sell those Bidder Shares described in 3(a) and 3(b) above until the end of the Offer Period, the Offer must close no later than three months after the date the Offer opens.

4 Bid Conditions

  • Target Shareholder approval of the Mobile Sale or alternative Superior Proposal ( Target Shareholder Approval Condition );

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

15 December 2020

Recommended Takeover Offer for amaysim Australia Limited Complementary to Optus Mobile Sale

amaysim Australia Limited (ASX: AYS) ( amaysim or the Company ) and WAM Capital Limited (ASX: WAM) ( WAM ) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a bid implementation agreement dated 14 December 2020 ( BIA ), under which it is proposed that WAM will make an agreed off-market takeover bid for 100% of the outstanding fully paid ordinary shares of amaysim, subject to certain conditions (the WAM Offer ).

The Board unanimously recommends shareholders accept the WAM Offer and the Directors have indicated that they each intend to accept the WAM Offer in respect of all amaysim shares they own or control, both in the absence of a superior proposal.

The WAM Offer is conditional upon amaysim shareholder approval of the sale of amaysim’s Mobile business ( Mobile Sale ) to Optus Mobile Pty Limited ( Optus ), which was announced on 2 November 2020 ( Mobile Sale Announcement ). On the basis that the WAM Offer relies on, and is supplemental to, the Mobile Sale, the amaysim Board considers that the WAM Offer is complementary to the Mobile Sale and enhances the overall outcome for shareholders . Optus has provided its consent to the making of this announcement.[1]

A copy of the BIA is attached as Annexure A for further information. Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms used in this announcement will have the meaning given in the Mobile Sale Announcement as supplemented by amaysim's Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum ( Notice of Meeting ) announced 3 December 2020.

Summary of WAM Offer

  • Under the WAM Offer, each amaysim shareholder may elect to receive either:

  • 1 WAM share for every 2.7 amaysim shares, representing A$0.833[2] of implied value per amaysim share (the Scrip Consideration );

  • cash consideration of A$0.695 per amaysim share (the Cash Consideration ); or

  • o a combination of cash and scrip.

  • The WAM Offer is subject to customary conditions and WAM has provided an undertaking to amaysim that it will waive any remaining conditions immediately following completion of the Mobile Sale, expected to be on or around 1 February 2021.

  • If the WAM Offer remains open past the Record Date for the major distribution of proceeds from the Mobile Sale ( Major Distribution ), the consideration will be reduced for shareholders whose acceptances of the WAM Offer take effect after that Record Date, by the amount of the Major Distribution (without any associated adjustment with respect to franking credits).

1 Optus’ consent was provided in connection with its rights in respect of the Mobile Sale only and it takes no responsibility in respect of this announcement.

2 Based on WAM’s closing price of $2.25 per share on 14 December 2020. The implied value of the WAM Offer (measured by reference to the Scrip Consideration) depends on the value of WAM’s share price at the time of any acceptance into the WAM Offer.

==> picture [163 x 26] intentionally omitted <==

  • As the WAM Offer is conditional on amaysim shareholders approving the Mobile Sale to Optus, or an alternative superior proposal, and opens subsequent to the completion of the Mobile Sale, the WAM Offer is considered complementary to the Mobile Sale by delivering enhanced value, optionality and faster payment for amaysim shareholders.

  • The WAM Offer will open on the later to occur of 1 February 2021 and the first business day after completion of the Mobile Sale, at which point the WAM Offer will be declared unconditional and will remain open at least until the day prior to the Record Date for the Major Distribution. In order to facilitate the WAM Offer, the Record Date of the Major Distribution will be amended from 12 March 2021 as shown in the Notice of Meeting to 31 March 2021[3] . Accepting amaysim shareholders will be paid within 5 business days of the processing of valid acceptances into the WAM Offer.

  • The implied value of the WAM Offer (Scrip Consideration) reflects a 28.4%[4] premium to amaysim's 1 month VWAP[4] up until 30 October 2020 (last trading day prior to the Mobile Sale being announced) and a 12.6% premium to amaysim's VWAP since the Mobile Sale was announced.[5]

Update to Distribution range

As detailed in the Notice of Meeting, amaysim expected shareholders would receive Distributions from amaysim through its delisting and wind-up process, of between A$0.67 per share and A$0.73 per share, with a midpoint of A$0.70 per share.

It is expected that amaysim will incur additional incremental transaction costs of approximately A$1.5 million directly associated with the WAM Offer, should the WAM Offer open and become unconditional.

This will reduce the cash available for Distribution by amaysim through its wind-up process by approximately $1.5 million or A$0.005 per share. The A$0.005 per share reduction is expected to reduce the Final Distribution (as detailed in the Notice Of Meeting) such that the Final Distribution is now expected to be in the range of A$0.065 per share and A$0.125 per share (with a midpoint of A$0.095 per share) instead of the A$0.07 per share to A$0.13 per share (with a midpoint of A$0.10 per share).

Accordingly, amaysim expects shareholders would receive Distributions from amaysim through its wind-up process, of between A$0.665 per share and A$0.725 per share with a midpoint of A$0.695.

Board Recommendation

The Board of amaysim views the WAM Offer as complementary to the Mobile Sale to Optus.

The Board unanimously recommends shareholders accept the WAM Offer and the Directors have indicated that they each intend to accept the WAM Offer in respect of all amaysim shares they own or control, both in the absence of a superior proposal.

Each shareholder should have regard to their own individual circumstances in determining whether to accept the Scrip Consideration or the Cash Consideration, however the Board’s view is that:

  • Ineligible Foreign Shareholders[6] should either:

  • accept the Cash Consideration on the basis that it is more beneficial to receive A$0.695 per amaysim share now from WAM than total Distributions of between A$0.665 and A$0.725 per amaysim share over a period of time from amaysim through its windup process; or alternatively they may wish to sell their amaysim shares on market[7] ; or

  • accept the Scrip Consideration under which a nominee will sell those new WAM shares issued under the WAM Offer and return the cash proceeds to them, in which case the Ineligible Foreign Shareholders may be better off; and

  • all other shareholders should accept the Scrip Consideration and, subject to their risk profile and market conditions, may wish to either hold their WAM Shares or sell those WAM shares on market[7] .

Although the Board recommends that shareholders accept the WAM Offer in accordance with the above, it acknowledges that some amaysim shareholders may wish to retain their shareholding in amaysim until after the Record Date considering that the franked component of the Major Distribution could deliver additional value to shareholders who can make use of franking credits to differing degrees depending on their own personal tax circumstances.

The Scrip Consideration, however, already offers a premium[8 ] exceeding that value, and amaysim shareholders wanting access to the Major Distribution may not have access to the WAM Offer as a result. There is no certainty that the WAM Offer will remain open after the Record Date for that distribution, and shareholders who elect to retain their amaysim shares in order to obtain the franked dividend may have to retain their shares until all Distributions are completed, or sell on market if the WAM Offer is not open at that time. Provided that the Mobile Sale completes, amaysim shareholders not accepting the WAM Offer will not impact the WAM Offer as the minimum acceptance condition of 50.1% will be waived upon completion of the Mobile Sale.

6 An Ineligible Foreign Shareholder is an amaysim shareholder whose registered address is outside of Australia and its external territories or New Zealand, unless WAM determines that it is lawful, not unduly onerous and not unduly impractical to issue WAM shares to that shareholder. In the case of shareholders in Germany, the WAM Offer has not been, and will not be, registered with or approved by any securities regulator in Germany or elsewhere in the European Union. Accordingly, the WAM Offer may not be made available, nor may the WAM shares be offered, in Germany except in circumstances that do not require a prospectus under Article 1(4) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union (the Prospectus Regulation ). In accordance with Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation, an offer of WAM shares in Germany is limited:

  • to persons who are "qualified investors" (as defined in Article 2(e) of the Prospectus Regulation);

  • to fewer than 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors); or

● in any other circumstance falling within Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation. In the case of shareholders in the United States, the WAM Offer does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities in the United States (US). The WAM shares to be issued under the Offer have not been, and will not be, registered under the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended (US Securities Act) or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the US. Accordingly, the WAM shares may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, to any person in the US or to, or for the account or benefit of, a US person (as defined in Regulation S under the US Securities Act), except in a transaction exempt from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the US Securities Act and applicable US securities laws.

7 The closing price of amaysim shares on 14 December 2020 was A$0.73. There can be no assurance that the amaysim share price will continue to trade above the Cash Consideration of A$0.695.

8 Based on WAM’s closing price of A$2.25 per share on 14 December 2020. The implied value of the WAM Offer (measured by reference to the Scrip Consideration) depends on the value of WAM’s share price at the time of any acceptance into the WAM Offer.

The Board maintains its unanimous recommendation to vote in favour of all resolutions contained in the Notice of Meeting issued on 3 December 2020 including the Mobile Sale and Distributions, subject to no superior proposal.

Overview of WAM Offer

Following announcement of the Mobile Sale to Optus on 2 November 2020, WAM approached amaysim with a proposal to acquire all of the shares in amaysim by way of an off-market takeover bid, conditional on amaysim’s shareholders approving the Mobile Sale, and the Mobile Sale being completed.

WAM Offer Consideration

Under the WAM Offer, WAM is offering amaysim shareholders the following:

  • Scrip Consideration of 1 WAM share for every 2.7 amaysim shares, representing A$0.833[9] of implied value per amaysim share;

  • Cash Consideration of A$0.695 cash per amaysim share; or

  • a combination of scrip or cash.

If no election is made, the default option for accepting amaysim shareholders will be Scrip Consideration.

If the WAM Offer remains open past the Record Date for the Major Distribution, the consideration will be reduced for shareholders whose acceptances of the WAM Offer take effect after that Record Date, by the value of the Major Distribution (without any associated adjustment with respect to franking credits).

For example, a shareholder who accepts the WAM Offer after the Record Date for the Major Distribution of A$0.50, and elects the Scrip Consideration, would receive share consideration of 1 WAM share for every 6.75 amaysim shares worth A$0.333, being an equivalent A$0.50 reduction from A$0.833, whereas a shareholder who accepts the WAM Offer after the Record Date for the Major Distribution, and elects the Cash Consideration, would receive A$0.195 per share (being A$0.695 less the A$0.50 Major Distribution).

In the event that amaysim announces a higher distribution than outlined in the Notice of Meeting, WAM has 4 business days to amend its Cash Consideration and match the new distribution forecast level announced by amaysim, or amaysim Directors may amend their recommendation of the WAM Offer.

The WAM Offer, assuming election of the default Scrip Consideration, delivers an attractive premium to amaysim shareholders when compared to the period before the Mobile Sale Announcement of:

  • 24.4% premium to the closing price[4] on 30 October 2020;

  • 12.4% premium to the closing price of amaysim shares on 14 December 2020;

  • 28.4% premium to the 1 month VWAP[4] of amaysim shares;

  • 24.4% premium to the 3 month VWAP[4] of amaysim shares; and

  • 12.6% premium to amaysim's VWAP since the Mobile Sale was announced.[10]

9 Based on WAM’s closing price of A$2.25 per share on 14 December 2020. The implied value of the WAM Offer (measured by reference to the Scrip Option) depends on the value of WAM’s share price at the time of any acceptance into the WAM Offer.

In order to facilitate the WAM Offer, the Record Date of the Major Distribution will be amended from 12 March 2021 as shown in the Notice of Meeting to 31 March 2021, but the Major Distribution will continue to be paid on 27 April 2021. WAM has agreed to open the WAM Offer on the later to occur of 1 February 2021 and the business day after the day on which completion of the Mobile Sale occurs and declare it unconditional once the Mobile Sale completes.

Rationale

Commenting on the WAM Offer, Geoff Wilson, Chairman and Chief Investment Officer of WAM said:

“We see a considerable opportunity to provide amaysim shareholders with a superior and complementary proposal. We look forward to welcoming the amaysim shareholders to the Wilson Asset Management family as we continue to grow WAM Capital”.

“We are pleased to receive the support of the amaysim Directors and senior management for the Offer and look forward to working with them to provide collective benefits to both WAM Capital and amaysim shareholders”.

For amaysim, the WAM Offer presents several important benefits:

  • Potential additional value above Mobile Sale cash Distributions: Shareholders who elect to receive the Scrip Consideration will receive A$0.833 per amaysim share of implied value, above the A$0.695 per share midpoint of the anticipated updated cash Distribution forecast[11] ;

  • Accelerated receipt of funds: Accepting amaysim shareholders will receive cash or scrip consideration within 5 business days of the processing of valid acceptances into the WAM Offer rather than through the series of cash Distributions post the Mobile Sale which would be paid over the period from March to October 2021; and

  • Additional optionality: Shareholders who elect to receive the Scrip Consideration will receive WAM Shares or can elect to receive a combination of cash and scrip.

Andrew Reitzer, amaysim Chairman commented: “The WAM Offer is complementary to the existing offer from Optus to acquire the Mobile business. It has no impact on the existing offer from Optus, but rather, provides amaysim shareholders with additional optionality to receive a higher return. It also removes the uncertainty in the current Distribution to shareholders that is dependent on the Company’s ability to cost efficiently wind-up and de-list.”

Consideration Funding

As at 30 November 2020, the investment portfolio of WAM was comprised of 9.4% cash (A$126.4million), with the remaining 90.6% predominantly comprised of liquid investments listed on the ASX. WAM's portfolio is predominately comprised of highly liquid investments, which WAM can liquidate at short notice if required to fund the cash component of the WAM Offer consideration and/or costs.

BIA / Conditions

The BIA between amaysim and WAM contains certain terms that are customary for a transaction of

11Note that a portion of cash Distributions as contemplated in the Mobile Sale Announcement include a franked distribution component which could deliver additional value to shareholders who can make use of franking credits to differing degrees depending on their own personal tax circumstances (as an offset to their liability for Australian tax, although the franking credit itself needs to be included in taxable income and is therefore subject to tax in its own right). That benefit is not available to shareholders who accept the WAM Offer.

this nature. A copy of the BIA is annexed to this announcement.

These terms include deal protection mechanisms including "exclusivity", “no shop”, “no talk” and “no due diligence” restrictions (subject to customary fiduciary duty carve‐outs) as well as notification and matching rights in the event of a competing proposal. There is no break fee.

The WAM Offer will also be subject to the following defeating conditions:

  • amaysim shareholder approval of the Mobile Sale (or alternative superior proposal)

  • ( Shareholder Approval Condition );

  • WAM has a relevant interest in at least 50.1% (by number) of amaysim shares;

  • the Record Date for the Major Distribution following amaysim shareholder approval of the Mobile Sale will be no earlier than 31 March 2021;

  • no prescribed occurrences in relation to amaysim (other than in relation to the Mobile Sale);

  • no material adverse change in relation to amaysim (other than in relation to the Mobile Sale);

  • no material litigation;

  • no market fall of 10% or more;

  • amaysim and its subsidiaries do not vary their constitutions, give any encumbrance over their assets, or appointing any additional directors to their board of directors;

  • the grant of any regulatory or third party approvals which would otherwise impede the Mobile Sale or alternative superior proposal; and

  • no regulatory action which materially affects the WAM Offer.

Under the terms of the BIA, WAM has agreed to waive each of the defeating conditions immediately upon completion of the Mobile Sale. WAM has undertaken not to waive the Shareholder Approval Condition until the date the offer opens (i.e. until after the completion of the Mobile Sale).
