CALCULATION OF FILING FEE

 

Transaction Valuation(1)   Amount of Filing Fee(2)
$41,807,270.20   $4,561.17

 

(1)The transaction valuation is estimated solely for purposes of calculating the amount of the filing fee. Paya Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) is offering holders of a total of 17,714,945 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), outstanding as of August 11, 2021 the opportunity to exchange such warrants and receive 0.260 shares of Common Stock in exchange for each warrant. The transaction value was determined by using the average of the high and low prices of the warrants as reported on The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq”) on August 10, 2021, which was $2.36 per warrant.

 

(2)The amount of the filing fee assumes that all outstanding warrants of the Company will be exchanged and is calculated pursuant to Rule 0-11(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and equals $109.10 for each $1,000,000 of the transaction value.

 

Check the box if any part of the fee is offset as provided by Rule 0-11(a)(2) and identify the filing with which the offsetting fee was previously paid. Identify the previous filing by registration statement number, or the Form or Schedule and the date of its filing.

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed by Paya Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “us” or “we”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 13, 2021 (the “Schedule TO”) relating to the Company’s offer to each holder of the Company’s warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), to receive 0.260 shares of Common Stock in exchange for every outstanding warrant tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”). Concurrently with the Offer, we are also soliciting consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from holders of the public warrants (as defined in the Schedule TO) to amend the Warrant Agreement (as defined in the Schedule TO), to permit the Company to require that each warrant that is outstanding upon the closing of the Offer be converted into 0.234 shares of Common Stock, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer. The Offer and Consent Solicitation are made upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, dated August 13, 2021 (the “Prospectus/Offer to Exchange”), a copy of which was filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO, and in the related Letter of Transmittal and Consent, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule TO.

 

The purpose of this Amendment is to amend and supplement the Schedule TO and the Offer to (i) clarify that the safe harbor for forward-looking statements under Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, included in the section of the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” does not apply to statements made in connection with the Offer, and (ii) update Item 12 of the Schedule TO to include Exhibit (d)(xiv), which is a copy of the Amended and Restated Tender and Support Agreement, dated August 24, 2021, by and between the Company and Riverview Group LLC.

 

Only those items amended are reported in this Amendment. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO, the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and the Letter of Transmittal and Consent remains unchanged. This Amendment should be read with the Schedule TO, the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange and the Letter of Transmittal and Consent.
