Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
|
On December 9, 2025, International Money Express, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), held a virtual
special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of August 10, 2025, by and
among the Company, The Western Union Company, a Delaware corporation (“Western Union”), and Ivey Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Western Union (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Western Union.
As of the close of business on October 29, 2025, the record date for the Special Meeting (the “Record Date”),
there were 29,715,191 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting,
each of which was entitled to one vote for each proposal at the Special Meeting. There were no other classes or series of the Company Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, the holders of
21,260,786 shares of the Company Common Stock were present by means of remote communication or represented by proxy, collectively representing approximately 71.54% of all issued and outstanding shares of the Company Common Stock entitled to vote at
the Special Meeting, which constituted a quorum.
Set forth below are the matters acted upon by the Company’s stockholders at the Special Meeting, as well as the final voting results of each such matter (each of which is
described in greater detail in the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 5, 2025):

Proposal 3 – The Company’s stockholders approved the proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates, if necessary or appropriate, including to solicit additional votes if there are insufficient votes to adopt the

Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond the Company’s control. These factors and circumstances include, but are not limited to, factors relating
to the contemplated pending acquisition of the Company by Western Union, including: (i) the completion of the pending transaction on anticipated terms and timing or at all, including obtaining regulatory approvals and other conditions to the
completion of the transaction; (ii) the ability of Western Union to integrate and implement its plans, forecasts and other expectations with respect to the Company’s business after the completion of the pending transaction; (iii) the occurrence of
any event, change or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement, which may require us to pay a termination fee or other expenses; (iv) potential significant transaction costs associated with the
pending transaction, and the possibility that the pending transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; (v) continued availability of capital and other changes in capital
markets; (vi) potential litigation or regulatory actions relating to the pending transaction, which could result in significant costs of defense, indemnification, and liability; (vii) the risk that disruptions from the pending transaction, such as
diverting management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations and relationships, may harm the Company’s business, including current plans and operations; (viii) the effect of the announcement, pendency or completion of the pending
transaction on the Company’s ability to retain and hire key personnel; (ix) the Company’s ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, governments, regulators and others with whom we do business, or the Company’s operating results
or business generally; (x) potential adverse business uncertainty resulting from restrictions imposed by the Merger Agreement during the pendency of the pending transaction that may impact the Company’s ability to pursue certain business
opportunities or strategic transactions; and (xi) the other risks and uncertainties pertaining to the Company’s business, including those set forth in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and its subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form
10-Q, as such risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports filed or furnished by the Company with the SEC. The forward-looking statements contained in this communication are based on the Company’s
current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. If underlying assumptions to forward-looking statements prove inaccurate, or if known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results
could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. The forward-looking statements contained in this communication are made as of the date of this communication, and the Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Persons reading this communication are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
