This Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Schedule TO”) is filed by Super Group (SGHC) Limited, a non-cellular company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Island of Guernsey (the “Company,” “us” or “we”). This Schedule TO relates to an offer by the Company to each holder of the Company’s public warrants (as defined below) to purchase ordinary shares of the Company, no par value per share (“Ordinary Shares”), to receive 0.25 Ordinary Shares in exchange for every outstanding public warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”). The Offer is made upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, dated November 10, 2022 (the “Prospectus/Offer to Exchange”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), and in the related letter of transmittal and consent (the “Letter of Transmittal and Consent”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(1)(B).
The 22,499,986 redeemable warrants sold as part of the units in Sports Entertainment Acquisition Corp.’s (“SEAC”) initial public offering of SEAC’s securities on October 6, 2020 (the “IPO”) (whether they were purchased in the IPO or thereafter in the open market) are referred to herein as the “public warrants”. The warrants originally issued to certain investors in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, as well as in connection with the closing of the partial exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option, that have not become public warrants under the Warrant Agreement (as defined below) as a result of being transferred to any person other than permitted transferees are referred to herein as the “private placement warrants”, and were issued pursuant to certain subscription agreements, each in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the business combination agreement, dated as of April 23, 2021, by and among SEAC and Super Group (SGHC) Limited, et al.
The public warrants and the private placement warrants are referred to herein collectively as the “warrants”, and each a “warrant”.
Concurrently with the Offer, we are also soliciting consents (the “Consent Solicitation”, and together with the Offer, the “Offer and Consent Solicitation”) from holders of warrants to amend the Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Amendment”), which governs all of the warrants, to permit the Company to (i) require that all outstanding public warrants following this Offer be converted into 0.225 Ordinary Shares (a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer) and (ii) instruct the warrant agent to cancel each outstanding private placement warrant for no consideration (the “Warrant Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of the then outstanding public warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the private placement warrants or any provision of the Warrant Agreement with respect to the private placement warrants, the vote or written consent of at least 50% of the number of the then outstanding private placement warrants and at least 50% of the number of then outstanding public warrants.
One of the conditions to the Offer and Consent Solicitation is that (i) the holders of at least 50% of the outstanding public warrants tender their warrants in the Offer, and thereby consent to the Warrant Amendment and (ii) the holders of at least 50% of the outstanding private placement warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment.
