The Transactions will significantly reduce Cazoo’s indebtedness from $630 million to $200 million and enhance our financial flexibility. We can now leverage the meaningful progress delivered since the beginning of the year to achieve better unit economics and lower costs. An improved capital structure is expected to support further growth along with facilitating progress on various strategic options. We expect the Transactions to complete within the next few weeks.” The EGM was called to approve a series of transactions (the “Transactions”) aimed at improving the Company’s capital structure, decreasing the total amount of outstanding indebtedness and creating a platform for future profitability. In accordance with the transaction support agreement (the “Transaction Support Agreement”), dated as of September 20, 2023, as amended, by and among the Company, the holders of the Company’s 2.00% convertible senior notes due 2027 (the “Convertible Notes”), and certain holders of our Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.002 per share (the “Class A ordinary shares”) who hold more than 33% of the Company’s outstanding Class A ordinary shares, the Transactions consist of: (a) the exchange of the Convertible Notes for $200 million aggregate principal amount of our senior secured notes due 2027 and Class A ordinary shares that will represent 92% of our outstanding Class A ordinary shares immediately after giving effect to the exchange offer (such exchange for the Convertible Notes, the “Exchange Offer”), (b) the issuance of three tranches of warrants to the existing holders of all of our outstanding Class A ordinary shares, and (c) the replacement of our board of directors with a new seven-person board of directors on or after the closing date of the Transactions. As of November 17, 2023 the Company secured agreements from the holders of 100% of its Convertible Notes to participate in the Company’s Exchange Offer. The Company’s Exchange Offer, which will expire on December 4, 2023, is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Exchange Offer Memorandum filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 3, 2023 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offering Memorandum”). In addition to seeking approval of the Transactions, the EGM was also called to approve a reverse stock split in which holders of 100 Class A ordinary shares will receive one (1) new Class A ordinary share, an increase to our authorized share capital and amendments to Cazoo’s amended and restated articles of association.
