SAN FRANCISCO--(Business Wire / Korea Newswire)--Visa (NYSE:V) today commenced its previously announced initial Exchange Offer for any and all outstanding shares of its Class B-1 common stock for a combination of Visa’s Class B-2 common stock, Visa’s Class C common stock and, where applicable, cash in lieu of fractional shares.

In exchange for each share of Class B-1 common stock validly tendered (and not withdrawn) and accepted for exchange by Visa, a participating holder will receive:

· one half of a newly issued share of Class B-2 common stock,
· newly issued shares of Class C common stock in an amount equivalent to one half of a share of Class B-1 common stock, with such equivalence based on the respective amounts of Class A common stock into which Class B-1 common stock and Class C common stock would be convertible as of the Expiration Date, and
· where applicable, cash in lieu of fractional shares determined by reference to the reported closing Class A common stock price on the New York Stock Exchange as of the Expiration Date.

The current rates into which the Class B-1 common stock and Class C common stock convert into Class A common stock are 1.5875 shares and 4 shares, respectively. Based on these rates, Visa will issue 0.1984 shares of Class C common stock for each share of Class B-1 common stock validly tendered and accepted for exchange.

The Exchange Offer will expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m. New York City time on May 3, 2024, unless extended or earlier terminated by Visa. Settlement of the shares will be made promptly following the Expiration Date.

As a condition to participating in the Exchange Offer, each participating Class B-1 stockholder, together with certain of such stockholder’s parent entities as parent guarantors, must enter into a makewhole agreement pursuant to which the stockholder and its parent guarantors will agree to reimburse Visa in cash for future obligations related to certain U.S. covered litigation that, but for its participation in the Exchange Offer, would have otherwise been borne by such holder through its ownership of Class B-1 common stock.

Visa’s Class B-1 stockholders are not obligated to participate in the Exchange Offer, and no action is required by Class B-1 stockholders who do not elect to participate.

The Exchange Offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Prospectus to be filed with the SEC today.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

The Exchange Offer is being made solely by the Prospectus. The Prospectus will contain important information about the Exchange Offer, Visa and related matters, and Visa will cause the Prospectus to be delivered to Class B-1 stockholders. CLASS B-1 STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROSPECTUS, THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC, WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE AND BEFORE MAKING ANY INVESTMENT DECISION, BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION.

Visa has engaged Equiniti Trust Company, LLC and D.F. King & Co., Inc. to act respectively as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) and information agent (the “Information Agent”) for the Exchange Offer. To obtain copies of the Prospectus, the Letter of Transmittal and other related documents, or for questions about the terms of the Exchange Offer or how to participate, you may contact the Information Agent toll-free at (800) 628-8509 (for stockholders) or collect at (212) 269-5550 (for brokers).

None of Visa, its directors, officers and employees, the Exchange Agent or the Information Agent, any of Visa’s financial advisors nor any of their respective directors or officers makes any recommendation as to whether Class B-1 stockholders should participate in the Exchange Offer.

Visa will also file with the SEC a Schedule TO, which will contain important information about the Exchange Offer.

Class B-1 stockholders may obtain copies of the Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Schedule TO, the Letter of Transmittal and other related documents, and any other information that Visa files electronically with the SEC free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

The Class B-1 common stock is held predominantly by banks, bank holding companies, credit unions and other financial institutions or affiliates of financial institutions that may be subject to comprehensive federal or state regulation and regulatory supervision. Visa has not assessed, and can provide no assurance as to, the suitability of a Class B-1 stockholder’s participation in the Exchange Offer, including the requirement to enter into and perform under a makewhole agreement, under the various regulatory regimes that may apply to any particular Class B-1 stockholder or its parent guarantors. In addition, Visa understands that some current or former Class B-1 stockholders have entered into swap or other derivative contracts or transactions with other current or former Class B-1 stockholders concerning the Class B-1 common stock. Visa is not a party to these contracts or transactions, and Visa cannot and will not advise on the effects the Exchange Offer, including obligations under a makewhole agreement, may have on any Class B-1 stockholder’s rights or obligations under any such swap or other derivative contract or transaction. Each Class B-1 stockholder considering whether to participate in the Exchange Offer is therefore urged to consult with its own legal and regulatory advisors.
