EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed by Allego N.V., a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap) governed by the laws of the Netherlands (the “Company,” “Allego,” “us” or “we”), on August 25, 2023 (as it may be amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule TO”), relating to an offer by the Company to the holders of its outstanding warrants (the “Warrants”), each to purchase the Company’s ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of € 0.12 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), the opportunity to receive 0.23 Ordinary Shares in exchange for each of our outstanding Warrants tendered by the holder and exchanged pursuant to the offer (the “Offer”).

Concurrently with the Offer, we also solicited consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from holders of the Warrants to amend the Warrant Agreement, dated as of February 8, 2021 by and between Spartan Acquisition Corp. III (“Spartan”) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), as assumed by the Warrant Assumption Agreement, dated as of March 16, 2022, by and among the Company, Spartan and the Warrant Agent (the “Warrant Agreement”), to permit the Company to require that each Warrant that is outstanding upon the closing of the Offer be converted into 0.207 Ordinary Shares, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least 50% of the number of the then outstanding Warrants.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation were made upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, originally dated August 25, 2023, and as thereafter amended (the “Prospectus/Offer to Exchange”), a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(1)(i).

The purpose of this Amendment No. 3 is to amend and supplement the Schedule TO to (i) update Item 11 of the Schedule TO to report the final results of the Offer, and (ii) update Item 12 of the Schedule TO to (a) include the final Prospectus/Offer to Exchange, which forms part of the Registration Statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”) declared effective by the SEC on September 28, 2023, and (b) a press release issued by the Company on September 29, 2023, announcing the results of the Offer and the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

Only those items amended are reported in this Amendment No. 3. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO and the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange remains unchanged and is hereby expressly incorporated into this Amendment No. 3 by reference. This Amendment No. 3 should be read together with the Schedule TO and the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange.


Item 11. Additional Information.

Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

The Offer and Consent Solicitation expired at Midnight (end of day), Eastern Time, on September 28, 2023. The Company has been advised that 13,015,201 Warrants, or approximately 94.3% of the outstanding Warrants, were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer and Consent Solicitation. The Company expects to accept all validly tendered Warrants for exchange and settlement on or before October 3, 2023. In addition, pursuant to the Consent Solicitation, the Company received the approval of approximately 94.3% of the outstanding Warrants to the Warrant Amendment (as defined in the Prospectus/Offer to Exchange), which exceeds a majority of the number of then outstanding Warrants required to adopt the Warrant Amendment. The Company expects to execute the Warrant Amendment concurrently with the settlement of the Offer.

On September 29, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the final results of the Offer as set forth above. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(5)(iii) and is incorporated herein by reference.
