This Amendment No. 5 (this “ Amendment ”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “ Schedule TO ”) filed by Fintrax US Acquisition Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ Purchaser ”) and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Franklin UK Bidco Limited, a private limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“ Parent ”), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 2017. The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of (i) common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“ Company Common Stock ”), of Planet Payment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), at a price per share of $4.50 (such price as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the “ Common Stock Offer Price ”), net to the seller in cash, without any interest, but subject to any required withholding of taxes, and (ii) Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“ Company Series A Preferred Stock ” and together with the Company Common Stock, the “ Shares ”) of the Company, at a price per share of $13.725, equal to the Common Stock Offer Price multiplied by the conversion ratio set forth in the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation rounded to the nearest one-hundredth, which is 3.05 (such price as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the “ Preferred Stock Offer Price ”), net to the seller in cash, without any interest, but subject to any required withholding of taxes, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated November 13, 2017 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “ Offer to Purchase ”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “ Letter of Transmittal ” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “ Offer ”), which are annexed to and filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively. Purchaser is a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. This Amendment is being filed on behalf of Parent and Purchaser. Unless otherwise indicated, references to sections in this Amendment are references to sections of the Offer to Purchase.

Amendments to the Offer to Purchase

Items 1 through 11.

The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

At 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on Monday, December 18, 2017, the Offer expired. The Depositary advised Purchaser that, as of the expiration of the Offer, a total of approximately 45,541,649 shares of common stock and 1,535,398 shares of Company Series A Preferred Stock were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the tender offer, representing approximately 79.4% of Planet Payment’s currently outstanding shares of common stock on a fully diluted basis.

As of the expiration of the Offer, the number of Shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer satisfied the Minimum Tender Conditions, and all other conditions to the Offer were satisfied or waived. Immediately after the expiration of the Offer, Purchaser irrevocably accepted for payment, and will promptly (and in any event within three business days) pay for, all Shares tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer.

Parent and Purchaser expect to complete the acquisition of the Company on December 20, 2017 by consummating the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement without a meeting of the Company shareholders in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL. As of the Effective Time, any issued and then outstanding Shares (other than any (i) Shares owned by Parent, Purchaser or any of Parent’s other direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, (ii) Shares owned by or in the treasury of the Company or owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and (iii) Shares held by the Company stockholders who properly demand and perfect appraisal rights under Delaware law) will be canceled and converted automatically into the right to receive (x) $4.50 per Share for Company Common Stock and (y) $13.725 per Share for Company Series A Preferred Stock, in each case net to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest.

Following consummation of the Merger, the Shares will be delisted and will cease to trade on the NASDAQ. Parent and Purchaser intend to take steps to cause the termination of the registration of the Shares under the Exchange Act and suspend all of Planet Payment’s reporting obligations under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable.

On December 18, 2017, Parent and the Company issued a press release announcing the expiration and results of the Offer. The full text of the press release is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(C) hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
