~~Introductory~~On ~~Note~~May 26, 2022, Nancy Mahon resigned from her position as a member of the Board of Directors of TPG Pace Beneficial Finance Corp. (the “Company”), effective immediately, in light of her other professional commitments. Ms. Mahon’s resignation was not due to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

As previously announced, on December 10, 2020, TPG Pace Beneficial Finance Corp., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability under company number 353463 (“TPGY”), Edison Holdco B.V., a Dutch private limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) and wholly owned subsidiary of TPGY (“Dutch Holdco”), New TPG Pace Beneficial Finance Corp., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability under company number 368739 and wholly owned subsidiary of Dutch Holdco (“New SPAC”), ENGIE New Business S.A.S., a société par actions simplifiée organized and existing under the laws of France (“Engie Seller”), and EV Charged B.V., a Dutch private limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) (“EVBox Group”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended, the “BCA” and the transactions contemplated thereby, the “Business Combination”), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, TPGY would merge with and into New SPAC, with New SPAC surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Dutch Holdco, and immediately thereafter, Engie Seller would, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer, assign, convey or contribute to Dutch Holdco all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in EVBox Group.

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On December 29, 2021, TPGY, Dutch Holdco, New SPAC, Engie Seller and EVBox Group entered into a Termination of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) pursuant to which the parties mutually agreed to terminate the BCA effective as of such date, after taking several factors into consideration. Pursuant to Section 2 of the Termination Agreement, the parties have agreed that as a reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by TPGY in connection with the BCA and the proposed Business Combination as originally contemplated in the BCA, Engie Seller shall make or cause to be made to TPGY a cash payment equal to EUR 15,000,000.

As a result of the termination of the BCA, the BCA is of no further force and effect, and certain transaction agreements entered into in connection with the BCA, including, but not limited to, the Shareholders Agreement, dated as of December 10, 2020 and to be effective as of the closing of the Business Combination, by and among Dutch Holdco, TPG Pace Beneficial Finance Sponsor, Series LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and Engie Seller, will either be terminated or no longer be effective, as applicable, in accordance with their respective terms.

TPGY intends to continue to pursue the consummation of a business combination with an appropriate target. With the BCA terminated, TPGY, Engie Seller and EVBox Group may (but are not required to) continue to discuss a potential business combination transaction involving TPGY and EVBox Group.

The foregoing descriptions of the BCA and the Termination Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the terms and conditions of the BCA, which was previously filed as Exhibits 2.1 through 2.4 to the Current Report on Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by TPGY on August 6, 2021, and the Termination Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, each of which is incorporated by reference herein.
