HONG KONG - September 29, 2023 - Bridgetown Holdings Limited ("Bridgetown") (NASDAQ: BTWN), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that, assuming the shareholder approval of its proposed business combination with CompareAsia Group Capital Limited (the "Company" or "MoneyHero"), a market leading financial products platform in Greater Southeast Asia (the "Business Combination"), the Business Combination is expected to close on or around October 12, 2023.

The Business Combination is further described in Bridgetown's definitive proxy statement, dated September 26, 2023, contained in the registration statement of MoneyHero Limited ("PubCo") on Form F-4 (as amended, the "Proxy Statement"). Bridgetown has scheduled an Extraordinary General Meeting of Bridgetown shareholders, to be held at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on October 10, 2023 (the "Extraordinary General Meeting"), to vote on the Business Combination and the other proposals described in the Proxy Statement (the "Proposals).

As further described in the Proxy Statement, assuming shareholders vote in favor of the Proposals and the conditions to closing are satisfied, all existing securities issued by Bridgetown, including its Class A Ordinary Shares, Units and Redeemable Warrants shall cease to exist and automatically be converted into securities of PubCo. Accordingly, as further described in the Proxy Statement, Units will be automatically separated and the holder thereof shall be deemed to hold one Bridgetown Class A Ordinary Share and one-third of a Bridgetown Warrant (provided that no fractional Bridgetown Warrants shall be issued in connection with such separation such that if a holder of such Units would be entitled to receive a fractional Bridgetown Warrant upon such separation, the number of Bridgetown Warrants to be issued to such holder upon such separation will be rounded down to the nearest whole number of Bridgetown Warrants; holders of Bridgetown Class A Ordinary Shares (including any Bridgetown Class A Ordinary Shares following the Unit separation) shall become holders of PubCo Class A Ordinary Shares; and holders of Redeemable Warrants (including any Redeemable Warrants following the Unit separation) will receive PubCo warrants.
