The Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation expired at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on September 10, 2021.

Paya has been advised that 17,380,396 public warrants (including 209,726 public warrants tendered through guaranteed delivery), or approximately 98.4% of the outstanding public warrants, and 50,000 private warrants, representing all outstanding private warrants, were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation.
