Shift4 Announces Closing of Offering of €680 Million of Senior Notes due 2033 and Tack-On Offering of $550 Million of Senior Notes due 2032

Shift4 Payments, Inc. (NYSE:FOUR), a leader in integrated payments and commerce technology, today announced the completion of the previously announced offering of €680 million aggregate principal amount of 5.500% senior notes due 2033 (the "Euro Notes") and tack-on offering of $550 million aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior notes due 2032 (the "New 2032 Notes" and, together with the Euro Notes, the "Notes") by Shift4 Payments, LLC ("Shift4") and Shift4 Payments Finance Sub, Inc. (together with Shift4, the "Issuers"), subsidiaries of Shift4 Payments, Inc. The Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, by certain of Shift4's subsidiaries. The New 2032 Notes were issued as additional securities under an Indenture, dated August 15, 2024 (as supplemented from time to time, the "2032 Notes Indenture"), pursuant to which the Issuers issued $1,100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of their 6.750% senior notes due 2032 (the "Existing 2032 Notes") on August 15, 2024. The New 2032 Notes and the Existing 2032 Notes are treated as a single class of debt securities under the 2032 Notes Indenture, and the New 2032 Notes have identical terms to the Existing 2032 Notes, other than with respect to the issue date and issue price.

Shift4 intends to use the net proceeds of the offering of the Notes, the new secured term loan B credit facility (the "Term Loan B") and Shift4 Payments, Inc.'s issuance and sale of mandatory convertible preferred stock and cash on hand for (i) the payment of a portion of the cash consideration due in respect of Shift4 Payments, Inc.'s acquisition of Global Blue Group Holding AG (the "merger") and related fees, costs and expenses, (ii) the redemption or repayment of the Issuers' 4.625% senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") and/or (iii) general corporate purposes, including repayment of debt, other strategic acquisitions and growth initiatives. There can be no assurance that the Term Loan B will be consummated on the anticipated terms or at all. The Issuers expect to redeem or repay the 2026 Notes after the completion of the offering. However, there can be no assurances that the 2026 Notes will be redeemed or repaid. The completion of the offering is not conditioned on the redemption or repayment of the 2026 Notes. This press release is not notice of redemption or repayment of the 2026 Notes. Any redemption or repayment of the 2026 Notes will be made solely by a notice of redemption or repayment.

The Notes were offered in a private offering that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Notes were offered within the United States to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A and outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. Any offers of the Notes were made only by means of a private offering memorandum.
