CLARIFICATION NOTE
NU HOLDINGS LTD.
Listed Company
Grand Cayman,
Cayman Islands, May 2, 2022 – With the objective of correcting and clarifying inaccurate and out of context information regarding
the compensation of our Executive Officers remuneration released in the news and social media in the last few days, Nu Holdings Ltd. (“Nu”
or the “Company”) clarifies to its shareholders and the market the following:
1 | | The 2022 Reference Form ("Formulário de Referência")
of the Company discloses an estimated compensation for its Executive Officers of R$ 804.4 million during the 2022 calendar year (Chart
13.2). However, from this amount (i) R$ 678.9 million, or 84%, refers to the annual accounting recognition of the Contingent Share Award
(“CSA”), and (ii) R$ 125.5 million, or 16%, refers to the remaining compensation of the Executive Officers in 2022.
|
2 | | The CSA is a stock compensation program granted to our founder and CEO,
David Vélez, conditioned to the achievement of ambitious targets, which will represent almost 100% of the total compensation of
Mr. Vélez throughout the next 5 years, this is the minimum period that Mr. Vélez must remain in the Company to be entitled
to the benefits of the CSA.
|
3 | | The CSA was approved by the Company Board of Directors in October 2021
and ratified by our shareholders, as set forth in our articles. It determines that Company stock will be issued to Mr. Vélez as
a long-term incentive award, subject to specific performance of Nu Holdings stock, as disclosed in our Final Prospectus of December 8,
2021 ("Prospectus") and the 2022 Reference Form: (i) Mr. Vélez will be compensated with Class A common shares
equivalent to 1% of the social capital of the Company, if our stock price reaches the threshold of US$18.69, around 3 times our last stock
closing price; and
(ii) Mr. Vélez will be compensated with Class A common shares equivalent to 1% of the social capital of the Company, if our
stock price reaches the threshold of US$35.30, around 6 times our last stock closing price.
|
4 | | If the market prices of our stock do not reach these thresholds, the variable
compensation of Mr. Vélez will be zero during this period of 5 years, thus, Mr. Vélez will not be entitled to any form of
variable compensation, be it of long or short term, in cash, stock, or pegged to stock.
|
5 | | The CSA sets forth ambitious targets that reflect levels of market capitalization
attractive to our shareholders. Therefore, the CSA creates a long-term interest alignment, strong and transparent, between Mr. Vélez
and our shareholders. This plan was approved by our Board of Directors and prepared with the support of an internationally renowed consulting
firm, which analyzed the best global practices.
|
6 | | Mr. Vélez adhered to the Giving Pledge initiative and committed
to donate all the stock resulting from the CSA to the philanthropic platform that his family has established to help foster opportunities
for vulnerable and underprivileged children and young adults from Latin America, as previously mentioned in the Prospectus. |
