Herens Midco S.à r.l. (“Arxada” or the “Company”) is pleased to report that the amendments to the transaction support agreement (“TSA”) announced on June 22, 2026 (the “TSA Amendment”) related to its recapitalization and amend & extend transaction originally announced on May 12, 2026 (the “A&E Transaction”) have become effective and, as of today’s date, senior secured creditors representing well over 75% by value of its senior secured debt (“Senior Secured Creditors”) and well over 75% by value of its senior unsecured notes (“Senior Unsecured Holders”) have acceded to the TSA. The Company has now obtained the required creditor approvals needed to consummate the A&E Transaction and intends to implement the A&E Transaction through a UK scheme of arrangement. The Company will provide further updates on the implementation of the A&E Transaction in due course and continues to expect completion of the A&E Transaction in the third quarter of 2026.

The Company notifies Senior Unsecured Holders and the lenders under its revolving credit facility (the “RCF Creditors”) that the Early Bird Premium Deadline and the Consent Premium Deadline have been extended from their original dates, which were previously detailed in the announcement made on May 12, 2026, as follows:

Early Bird Premium Deadlines:

• For RCF Creditors or Senior Unsecured Holders which acceded to the TSA after the original Early Bird Premium Deadline of May 22, 2026, but on or prior to the original Consent Premium Deadline of May 28, 2026, the Early Bird Premium Deadline will be 11:59pm (UK) on May 28, 2026;
• For RCF Creditors or Senior Unsecured Holders which accede to the TSA after the original Consent Premium Deadline of May 28, 2026, the Early Bird Premium Deadline will be 11:59pm (UK) on June 26, 2026; and
• For all other creditors, the Early Bird Premium Deadline will remain as 11:59pm (UK) on May 22, 2026.

Consent Premium Deadlines:

• For creditors which acceded to the TSA prior to the original Consent Premium Deadline of May 28, 2026, the Consent Premium Deadline will remain as 11:59pm (UK) on May 28, 2026; and
• For creditors which accede to the TSA after the original Consent Premium Deadline of May 28, 2026, the Consent Premium Deadline will be 11:59pm (UK) on June 26, 2026.

The amount of the previously announced Early Bird Premium and Consent Premium will remain unchanged. Further information regarding the Early Bird Premium and the Consent Premium are detailed in the TSA.  

The Company also notes that the key terms of the previously announced CHF200 million new money injection by the Bain Capital and Cinven (“Sponsor Contribution”) have been agreed in the TSA. The Sponsor Contribution will (i) rank junior to the Senior Secured Creditors and pari passu with the Senior Unsecured Holders, (ii) accrue interest in kind at a rate not to exceed the interest rate of the amended and restated fixed rate senior unsecured notes, and (iii) have the same maturity date as the extended maturity date of the amended and restated senior unsecured notes. Further information regarding the Sponsor Contribution is detailed in the TSA.

The Company encourages all creditors who wish to access further information relating to the A&E Transaction and accede to the TSA to consult the transaction website at https://deals.is.kroll.com/arxada for administrative information.
