AUSTER.ACQ.II A DL-,0001

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cannae Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CNNE) and Trasimene Capital Management, sponsors (the “Sponsors”) of Austerlitz Acquisition Corporation II (NYSE: ASZ, or the “Company”), a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), are seeking approval of the Company’s shareholders to redeem its outstanding Class A ordinary shares (the “Public Shares”) for cash held in its trust account prior to December 31, 2022. ASZ expires by its terms on March 2, 2023 (the “24-Month Deadline”). The Sponsors believe that consummation of a suitable merger is highly improbable, and it is therefore in shareholders’ best interests to return the cash in trust within calendar 2022 rather than wait for expiration in 2023. Since the Company’s IPO, the Sponsors reviewed hundreds of potential merger partners and have had substantive negotiations with dozens of them. Despite these extensive efforts, the Sponsors have not secured and do not seek a merger partner. Some prospective partners did not meet the Sponsors’ investment criteria, and some pursued other strategic options like an IPO or full or partial sale. Some eventually declined to merge with ASZ due to poor stock price performance in the SPAC and IPO markets. The Company has filed a preliminary proxy statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) containing proposals to amend its Articles of Association and the Investment Management Trust Agreement to allow the Company to commence liquidation without a business combination and before the 24-Month Deadline. The Sponsors will seek shareholders favorable vote at a special meeting of shareholders in November 2022. As part of that process, the holders of Public Shares will have an opportunity to submit their shares for voluntary redemption. Funds held in trust today are $1,380.0 million. Accordingly, the Company expects to return $10.00 per Public Share to the holders.
