Dear Virtus Shareholder,

Compulsory acquisition of your shares in Virtus

As you know, entities affiliated with BGH Capital Pty Ltd (ACN 617 386 982), Oceania Equity Investments Pty Ltd (ACN 655 692 738) as trustee for the Oceania Trust (Oceania) and Viney Bidco Pty Ltd (ACN 658 293 166) (formerly known as A.C.N. 658 293 166 Pty Ltd) (BidCo and together with Oceania, the BGH Bidders) made a joint off-market takeover offer dated 20 April 2022 (the Offer) to acquire all the ordinary shares in Virtus Health Limited (ACN 129 643 492) (Virtus).

The Offer closed at 7.00pm (Melbourne, Australia time) on 27 June 2022 and our records show that the BGH Bidders did not receive a valid acceptance of the Offer from you before that time.

As the BGH Bidders have acquired a relevant interest in more than 90% of the shares in Virtus, BidCo proposes to acquire your ordinary shares under the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (the Corporations Act). The acquisition will be effected on the same terms as those offered by the BGH Bidders under the Offer, which means that you shall receive $7.855 cash per Virtus share (being $8.155 less the special dividend of $0.30 paid by Virtus on 1 July 2022).

The formal notice which Bidco is required to give you under the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Corporations Act is enclosed.

On completion of the compulsory acquisition procedures, Bidco will deliver the consideration for your shares to Virtus. You will then be entitled to ask Virtus to provide that consideration to you. In due course, Virtus will send you a form to claim that consideration.

For personal use only

If you have any questions, please call the BGH Capital Offer Information Line on 1300 620 418 (toll-free within Australia) or +61 3 9415 4656 (from outside Australia) or contact your legal, financial, tax or other professional adviser.

Yours sincerely,

Ben Gray

Founding Partner, BGH Capital
