INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT ON FORM 6-K

Subscription Agreement

On September 28, 2022, Signa Sports United N.V., a Dutch public limited liability company (formerly SIGNA Sports United B.V., a Dutch limited liability company, the “Company”) entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with SIGNA Holding GmbH, an Austrian limited liability company (the “Subscriber”) to issue EUR 100,000,000.00 aggregate principal amount of convertible bonds (the “Convertible Bonds”) to Subscriber. The Convertible Bonds mature on October 4, 2028 and are divided into bonds in bearer form with a principal amount of EUR 1,000,000.00 each. The Convertible Bonds bear interest payable quarterly (“Quarterly Interest”) as well as accrued interest (“PIK Interest”). Interest is payable from October 4, 2022, at a rate of three-month EURIBOR plus 4% per annum (which will increase to 5% per annum and 6% per annum on October 4, 2026 and October 4, 2027 respectively). PIK Interest accrues from October 4, 2022 at a rate of 7% per annum (which will increase to 8% per annum and 9% per annum on October 4, 2026 and October 4, 2027, respectively) as if it were payable quarterly in arrears on each interest payment date.

Bondholders may convert the Convertible Bonds at any time into fully paid ordinary shares of the Company with a nominal value of € 0.12 each. The initial conversion price for the Convertible Bonds is EUR 10.3686.

Bondholders have the right to increase the principal amount of the Convertible Bonds by an additional aggregate principal amount of up to EUR 200,000,000.00 as of closing of the convertible bond issuance and until and including September 30, 2023 in one or more tranches with minimum denominations of EUR 1,000,000.00.

A copy of the Subscription Agreement is filed with this Report on Form 6-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference, and the foregoing descriptions of the Convertible Bonds and the Subscription Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.

The Company offered and sold the Convertible Bonds in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Bonds, if any, have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
