SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

MERGER PROPOSED—YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

Dear Stockholder:

On or about April 12, 2017, we mailed to you a definitive proxy statement relating to a special meeting of our stockholders called for the purpose of considering and voting upon, among other things, a proposal to approve and adopt a merger agreement, dated January 26, 2017, pursuant to which MoneyGram International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, or MoneyGram, will be acquired by Alipay (UK) Limited, a United Kingdom limited company, or Alipay, through a merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of Alipay into MoneyGram.

I am pleased to report that on April 15, 2017, the merger agreement was amended to, among other things, increase the consideration payable to our stockholders from $13.25 in cash to $18.00 in cash, without interest, less any applicable tax withholding, for each share of our common stock and preferred stock on an as-converted basis.

The increased price of $18.00 per share represents a 51.5% premium to the closing stock price our common stock on January 25, 2017, the last trading day prior to the approval by our board of directors and public announcement of the merger.

Our stockholders will be asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve and adopt the merger agreement, as amended, at a special meeting of stockholders. Our stockholders will also be asked to consider and vote on an advisory, non-binding proposal to approve compensation that will or may become payable to our named executive officers in connection with the merger. After considering the factors more fully described in this supplement and the definitive proxy statement, our board of directors has approved resolutions (i) determining that the merger and other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, as amended, are fair to, and in the best interests of the stockholders of MoneyGram, (ii) approving, adopting and declaring advisable and authorized in all respects the merger agreement, as amended, the voting and support agreements and the merger and other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, as amended, (iii) directing that the merger be submitted to the stockholders of MoneyGram for approval at a meeting of such stockholders and (iv) recommending that stockholders of MoneyGram approve the merger (on the terms set forth in the merger agreement, as amended) and approve all other actions or matters necessary or desirable to give effect to the merger pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended. Our board of directors recommends that all of our stockholders vote FOR the approval and adoption of the merger agreement, as amended. Additionally, our board of directors recommends that all of our stockholders vote FOR the proposal to approve compensation that will or may become payable to our named executive officers in connection with the merger.

The date of the special meeting has not changed and remains May 16, 2017. Likewise, the record date for the special meeting has not changed and remains April 7, 2017. This means that only stockholders of record of our common stock at the close of business on April 7, 2017 are entitled to vote on the proposals at the special meeting.

If you have already voted and would like to revoke your proxy or change your vote, you may do so at any time before the special meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your

proxy at any time before it is voted at the special meeting by (i) delivering a signed, written revocation letter, dated later than the proxy and which must be received prior to the special meeting, to MoneyGram International, Inc., 2828 North Harwood Street, 15th Floor, Dallas, Texas 75201, Attention: Corporate Secretary, (ii) delivering a signed proxy, dated later than the prior proxy and which must be received prior to the special meeting, to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717, (iii) voting again by telephone or on the Internet by 11:59 p.m. on the day before the special meeting, or (iv) attending the special meeting and give notice to the inspector of election that you intend to vote in person rather than by proxy. If your shares are held in street name by a broker, bank, trust or other nominee, and you would like to revoke or change your proxy, you must contact such broker, bank, trust or other nominee and follow its procedures to revoke your proxy.

The affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock is required to approve and adopt the merger agreement, as amended, and such approval is a condition to the completion of the merger. Additionally, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the special meeting and entitled to vote is required to approve the non-binding proposal on compensation that will or may become payable to our named executive officers in connection with the merger. Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote per share. Proxies returned to us that are properly signed and dated but not marked to indicate your voting preference will be counted as votes FOR approval and adoption of the merger agreement, as amended, and FOR the proposal regarding certain merger-related executive compensation arrangements.

The supplement to the definitive proxy statement attached to this letter provides you with information about the special meeting of our stockholders and the proposed merger. A copy of the amendment to the merger agreement is attached as Annex B to this supplement. We encourage you to read the entire the supplement to the definitive proxy statement and its annexes, including the amendment to the preliminary proxy statement, and the definitive proxy statement previously mailed to you, carefully. Please do not send in your stock certificates at this time. If the merger is completed, you will receive instructions regarding the surrender of your stock certificates and payment for your shares of common stock.

Your vote is very important. Whether or not you plan to attend the special meeting, if you are a holder of our common stock, please complete, sign, date and mail the enclosed proxy card to us or submit your proxy by telephone or Internet. If you attend the special meeting, you may vote in person even if you previously returned your proxy.

For additional questions about the merger, assistance in submitting proxies or voting shares of our common stock, or to request additional copies of the definitive proxy statement or this supplement or the enclosed proxy card, please contact our proxy solicitor, Morrow Sodali, who may be contacted by banks and brokers at 1-203-658-9400 and by all others toll-free at 1-800-662-5200.

SUPPLEMENT TO DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT

Explanatory Note

This supplement to the Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed by MoneyGram International, Inc. on April 10, 2017, which we refer to as the definitive proxy statement, is being provided to you because MoneyGram has entered into the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated April 15, 2017, by and among MoneyGram, Alipay (UK) Limited, a United Kingdom limited company, Matrix Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of Alipay and Alipay (Hong Kong) Holding Limited, a Hong Kong limited company (the “merger agreement amendment”). This supplement, the annexes to this supplement and the documents referred to in this supplement should be read in conjunction with the definitive proxy statement, the annexes to the definitive proxy statement and the documents referred to in the definitive proxy statement, each of which should be read in its entirety. Except as otherwise described in this supplement, the annexes to this supplement or the documents referred to in this supplement, the definitive proxy statement, the annexes to the definitive proxy statement and the documents referred to in the definitive proxy statement are not otherwise modified, supplemented or amended. To the extent information in this supplement differs from, updates or conflicts with information contained in the definitive proxy statement, the information in this supplement is the more current information.

Except as otherwise specifically noted in this supplement, “MoneyGram,” “we,” “our,” “us” and similar words in this supplement refer to MoneyGram International, Inc. Throughout this supplement we refer to Alipay (UK) Limited as “Alipay”, Matrix Acquisition Corp. as “Merger Sub” and Alipay (Hong Kong) Holding Limited as “Guarantor”. In addition, throughout this supplement we refer to the merger between MoneyGram and Merger Sub as the “merger.” We also refer to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 26, 2017, among MoneyGram, Alipay, Merger Sub and Guarantor, as the “original merger agreement,” the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated April 15, 2017, as the “merger agreement amendment” and the original merger agreement, as amended by the amendment, as the “merger agreement.”

A copy of the merger agreement amendment is attached as Annex B, and a copy of the original merger agreement is attached as Annex A, to this supplement.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MERGER AND THE SPECIAL MEETING

The following questions and answers are intended to address briefly some commonly asked questions regarding the merger, the merger agreement and the special meeting and supplement the section in the definitive proxy statement entitled “Questions and Answers About the Merger and the Special Meeting” beginning on page 17 of the definitive proxy statement. These questions and answers may not address all questions that may be important to you as a stockholder. We urge you to read carefully the more detailed information contained elsewhere in this supplement, the annexes to this supplement, the definitive proxy statement, the annexes to the definitive proxy statement and the documents we incorporate by reference into this supplement and the definitive proxy statement.

Q:	Why am I receiving this supplement?

Our board of directors is furnishing this supplement and proxy card because on April 15, 2017, MoneyGram, Alipay, Merger Sub and Guarantor entered into an amendment to the original merger agreement. This supplement provides information about the merger agreement amendment and updates the definitive proxy statement.

Q:	What is the effect of the merger agreement amendment?

The merger agreement amendment increased the consideration to be paid to our stockholders for their shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of MoneyGram (“Common Stock”), and Series D preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, of MoneyGram (“Series D Preferred Stock”) (on an as-converted basis) if the merger is completed to $18.00 per share in cash, without interest, which we refer to as the “amended per share merger consideration”, less any applicable withholding taxes, from $13.25 per share in cash, without interest, which we refer to as the “original per share merger consideration”, less any applicable withholding taxes.

The merger agreement amendment also increased from $30 million to $41 million the termination fee payable by MoneyGram in connection with the termination of the merger agreement under specified circumstances, including the termination of the merger agreement by MoneyGram to accept a Company Superior Proposal (as defined in the merger agreement), the termination of the merger agreement by Alipay following a change of recommendation by our board of directors, and other customary circumstances. Additionally, the merger agreement amendment increased from $60 million to $82 million the termination fee payable by Alipay in certain circumstances involving termination of the merger agreement following a failure by Alipay to consummate the merger or a willful and material breach by Alipay, Merger Sub or Guarantor. The merger agreement amendment also increased from $17.5 million to $30 million the termination fee payable by Alipay in certain circumstances involving a termination of the merger agreement when CFIUS Approval (defined in the merger agreement and as described on page 7 of the definitive proxy statement under “Summary—The Merger—Regulatory Matters”) has not been obtained.

The merger agreement amendment also provides that MoneyGram must convene and hold a special meeting of stockholders to approve and adopt the merger on May 16, 2017, and that MoneyGram is not permitted to change the date of, postpone, recess or adjourn the special meeting of stockholders without the prior written consent of Alipay except in certain limited circumstances. Such circumstances include (a) if there are insufficient shares of our Common Stock represented to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the special meeting of stockholders or (b) to the extent that MoneyGram has reasonably determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel and Alipay (and its outside counsel), that such postponement, recess or adjournment (which cannot exceed five business days or such longer period as the parties may agree) is necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the definitive proxy statement required by applicable law with respect to any event, circumstance, discovery of information or other set of facts arising after the date the merger agreement amendment was entered into is provided to our stockholders in advance of the special meeting of stockholders.

For additional information regarding the circumstances in which our board of directors is permitted to terminate the merger agreement to accept a Company Superior Proposal, please see “The Merger Agreement—Termination” beginning on page 96 of the definitive proxy statement. For additional information regarding the circumstances in which we may be required to pay to Alipay a fee, or Alipay may be required to pay us a fee, with respect to the termination of the merger agreement, please see “The Merger Agreement—Termination Fees and Expenses” beginning on page 98 of the definitive proxy statement.

Q:	What will I receive in the merger?

If the merger is completed, you will be entitled to receive the amended per share merger consideration of $18.00, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, for each share of our Common Stock that you own at the effective time of the merger. For example, if you own 100 shares of our Common Stock, you will receive $1,800.00 in cash, less any required withholding taxes, in exchange for those shares unless you have properly exercised your appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to such shares. You will not receive any shares of capital stock in the surviving corporation.

Q:	How does the amended per share merger consideration compare to the market price of our Common Stock prior to the announcement of the original merger agreement and the original per share consideration?

The amended per share merger consideration represents a 51.5% premium to our closing stock price on January 25, 2017, the last trading day prior to the approval by our board of directors and public announcement of the original merger agreement, and a 35.8% premium to the original per share consideration.

Q:	What do I need to do now?

Even if you plan to attend the special meeting, after carefully reading and considering the information contained in this supplement and the definitive proxy statement, please submit a proxy promptly to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the special meeting. If you hold your shares of Common Stock in your own name as the stockholder of record, please submit a proxy to have your shares of Common Stock voted at the special meeting by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying prepaid reply envelope; by using the telephone number printed on your proxy card; or by using the Internet instructions printed on your proxy card. If you decide to attend the special meeting and vote in person, your vote by ballot will revoke any proxy previously submitted. If you are a beneficial owner, please refer to the instructions provided by your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee to see which of the above choices are available to you.

Q:	How does our board of directors recommend I vote?

Our board of directors has adopted resolutions (i) determining that the merger and other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, as amended, are fair to, and in the best interests of the stockholders of MoneyGram, (ii) approving, adopting and declaring advisable and authorized in all respects the merger agreement, as amended, the voting and support agreements and the merger and other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, (iii) directing that the merger be submitted to the stockholders of MoneyGram for approval at a meeting of such stockholders and (iv) recommending that stockholders of MoneyGram approve the merger (on the terms set forth in the merger agreement as amended) and approve all other actions or matters necessary or desirable to give effect to the merger pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended. Our board of directors unanimously recommends that all of our stockholders vote FOR the approval and adoption of the merger agreement, as amended. The reasons for our board of directors’ determination are discussed in this supplement and the definitive proxy statement.

Additionally, our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the proposal to approve compensation that will or may become payable to MoneyGram’s named executive officers in connection with the merger.

Q:	Has the date of the special meeting of stockholders changed from what was included in the definitive proxy statement?

A:	No. The date of the special meeting has not changed and will remain May 16, 2017.

Q:	Who can vote at the special meeting?

MoneyGram has two classes of capital stock outstanding: Common Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock. Stockholders of record of our Common Stock as of the close of business on April 7, 2017, the record date for the special meeting, are entitled to receive notice of the special meeting and vote their shares at the meeting. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share of the Common Stock held on the record date for each of the proposals set forth in the definitive proxy statement. There is no cumulative voting.

Goldman Sachs, as the sole holder of Series D Preferred Stock, is not entitled to vote its shares of Series D Preferred Stock at the special meeting. In connection with the execution of the merger agreement amendment, Goldman Sachs, as the sole holder of Series D Preferred Stock, delivered an irrevocable written consent approving the merger and the treatment of the Series D Preferred Stock in the merger agreement.

Q:	How do I vote if I am the record holder of my shares?

A:	You are entitled to vote at the meeting if you are a stockholder of record of Common Stock on the record date. You may vote:

•

in person by appearing and casting your vote at the special meeting; or

•

by proxy. Stockholders of record have a choice of submitting a proxy:

by using the Internet voting instructions printed on your proxy card;

by using the telephone voting instructions printed on your proxy card; or

by completing, signing, dating and returning each enclosed proxy card you receive in the enclosed postage paid envelope.

If you are granting a proxy to vote by telephone or via the Internet, your voting instructions must be received by the date and time indicated on the applicable proxy card(s).

Granting a proxy to vote via the Internet, by telephone or by mailing in your proxy card will not prevent you from voting in person at the special meeting. You are encouraged to submit a proxy by mail, via the Internet or by telephone even if you plan to attend the special meeting in person, to ensure that your shares of Common Stock are present in person or represented at the special meeting.

If you return a properly signed and dated proxy card but do not mark the box showing how you wish to vote, your shares will be voted “FOR” the proposal to approve and adopt the merger agreement and “FOR” the non-binding, advisory proposal to approve compensation that will or may become payable to our named executive officers in connection with the merger. With respect to any other matter that properly comes before the special meeting, shares present in person or represented by all proxies received by MoneyGram will be voted with respect to such matter in accordance with the judgment of the persons named as attorneys-in-fact in the proxies.

Q:	How do I vote if my shares are held by my brokerage firm, bank, trust or other nominee?

If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee, such as a bank or trust, then you are considered to be the beneficial owner of those shares, with your shares being held in “street name.” “Street name” holders generally cannot vote their shares directly and must instead instruct the brokerage firm, bank, trust or other nominee how to vote their shares. Your brokerage firm, bank, trust or other nominee will only be permitted to vote your shares for you at the special meeting if you instruct it how to vote. Therefore, it is important that you promptly follow the directions provided by your brokerage firm, bank, trust or other nominee regarding how to instruct it to vote your shares. If you wish to vote in person at the special meeting, you must bring a proxy from your brokerage firm, bank, trust or other nominee authorizing you to vote at the special meeting.

In addition, because any shares you may hold in “street name” will be deemed to be held by a different stockholder than any shares you hold of record, shares held in “street name” will not be combined for voting purposes with shares you hold of record. To be sure your shares are voted, you should instruct your brokerage firm, bank, trust or other nominee to vote your shares. Shares held by a corporation or business entity must be voted by an authorized officer of the entity.

Q:	What is the status of Euronet’s proposal?

In connection with and pursuant to the merger agreement amendment, MoneyGram terminated discussions and negotiations with, and has ceased providing due diligence information to, Euronet Worldwide, Inc., or Euronet, and its representatives with respect to Euronet’s previously submitted binding offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis) for $15.20 per share, in cash, which we refer to as the Euronet proposal.

In reaching its decision to approve the merger agreement amendment and to terminate discussions with Euronet in connection with the entry into the merger agreement amendment, our board of directors noted the following aspects, among others, of the merger agreement amendment and the merger:

•

That the $18.00 per share merger consideration provides an opportunity for holders of our Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis) to realize $4.75 of additional cash value (or a 36% increase) above the original $13.25 per share merger consideration and $2.80 of additional cash value above the $15.20 per share merger consideration offered by Euronet;

•

The fact that the $18.00 per share in cash to be paid as merger consideration represented a 160.1% premium to $6.92, the closing price of our Common Stock on October 4, 2016, the day of the first meeting of MoneyGram’s management with representatives of Ant Financial Services Group (“Ant Financial”), and a premium of 64% to MoneyGram’s volume weighted average share price over the prior three month period ended January 25, 2017, the day prior to the original transaction announced with Ant Financial;

•

The likelihood that the merger would be consummated in 2017 if MoneyGram stockholders adopt the merger agreement at the special meeting on May 16, 2017 and the other conditions to closing are satisfied based on, among other things, the likelihood of obtaining requisite regulatory approvals given the progress to date with respect thereto;

•

The following aspects associated with the Euronet proposal:

•

That Euronet’s offer of $15.20 per share in cash was $2.80 less than the price per share offered by Alipay in the merger agreement amendment;

•

That our board of directors was not able to determine that the Euronet proposal constituted a “Company Superior Proposal” as defined in the merger agreement;

•

That the timing of the closing of any transaction with Euronet was uncertain and, given where the regulatory approval process is with Ant Financial currently, was likely to take as long, or longer, than the time when a transaction with Alipay and Merger Sub was likely to close;

•

That the Euronet proposal contained a certain degree of closing risk given the potential regulatory risks presented by a combination of two direct competitors; and

•

MoneyGram’s continued right to enter into discussions, and negotiations with, and provide further information to, a new competing proposal from any bidder, including Euronet, if our board of directors determined such new proposal could reasonably be expected to lead to a “Company Superior Proposal” as defined in the merger agreement, subject to certain restrictions.

Please see “Reasons for the Merger and Recommendation of Our Board of Directors.”

SUMMARY OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT AMENDMENT

The following summary describes certain material provisions of the merger agreement amendment. This summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the merger agreement amendment, which is attached to this supplement as Annex B and incorporated into this supplement by reference. We urge you to read carefully the merger agreement amendment in its entirety because this summary may not contain all the information about the merger agreement amendment that is important to you. The rights and obligations of the parties are governed by the express terms of the merger agreement amendment and not by this summary or any other information contained in this supplement.

Amended Per Share Merger Consideration

On April 15, 2017 MoneyGram, Alipay, Merger Sub and Guarantor entered into the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger. The merger agreement amendment increased the merger consideration to be paid to our stockholders for their shares of Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis) if the merger is completed to $18.00 per share in cash from $13.25 per share in cash, in each case, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes. All references to the merger consideration payable for shares of our Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis) in the definitive proxy statement as being equal to $13.25 should now be interpreted to be references to $18.00.

Additionally, as of the record date, there are 71,281.9038 shares of Series D Preferred Stock outstanding, all of which are held by Goldman Sachs, which are convertible into 8,910,234 shares of Common Stock. Thus, upon completion of the merger, Goldman Sachs will receive $160,384,212 in merger consideration. All references to the total amount of merger consideration to be received by Goldman Sachs as being “$118,060,600.50” should now be treated as “$160,384,212”. In connection with the execution of the merger agreement amendment, Goldman Sachs, delivered an irrevocable written consent approving the merger and the treatment of the Series D Preferred Stock in the merger agreement.

Termination Fees

The merger agreement amendment increased from $30 million to $41 million the termination fee payable by MoneyGram in the event that the merger agreement is terminated under specified circumstances, including the termination of the merger agreement by MoneyGram to accept a Company Superior Proposal, the termination of the merger agreement by Alipay following a change of recommendation by our board of directors, and other customary circumstances, as described beginning on page 13 of the definitive proxy statement under “Summary—The Merger Agreement—Termination Fees and Expenses—MoneyGram Termination Fee” and page 98 of the definitive proxy statement under “The Merger Agreement—Termination Fees and Expenses—MoneyGram Termination Fee.” All references to the MoneyGram termination fee in the definitive proxy statement are correspondingly amended so that all references to “$30 million” shall now be treated as “$41 million.”

In addition, the merger agreement amendment increased from $60 million to $82 million the termination fee payable by Alipay in certain circumstances involving termination of the merger agreement following a failure by Alipay to consummate the merger or a willful and material breach by Alipay, Merger Sub or Guarantor, as described beginning on page 14 of the definitive proxy statement under “Summary—The Merger Agreement—Termination Fees and Expenses—Alipay Termination Fee and Alipay Regulatory Termination Fee” and page 99 of the definitive proxy statement under “The Merger Agreement—Termination Fees and Expenses—Alipay Termination Fee and Alipay Regulatory Termination Fee.” All references to the Alipay termination fee in the definitive proxy statement are correspondingly amended so that all references to “$60 million” shall now be treated as “$82 million.”

The merger agreement amendment also increased from $17.5 million to $30 million the termination fee payable by Alipay in certain circumstances involving a termination of the merger agreement when there has been

a failure to obtain CFIUS Approval, as described beginning on page 13 of the definitive proxy statement under “Summary—The Merger Agreement—Termination Fees and Expenses—Alipay Termination Fee and Alipay Regulatory Termination Fee” and page 98 of the definitive proxy statement under “The Merger Agreement—Termination Fees and Expenses—Alipay Termination Fee and Alipay Regulatory Termination Fee.” All references to the regulatory termination fee in the definitive proxy statement are correspondingly amended so that all references to “$17.5 million” shall now be treated as “$30 million.”

Special Meeting of Stockholders

The merger agreement amendment also provides that MoneyGram must convene and hold a special meeting of stockholders to approve and adopt the merger agreement on May 16, 2017, and that MoneyGram is not permitted to change the date of, postpone, recess or adjourn the special meeting of stockholders without the prior written consent of Alipay except in certain limited circumstances. Such circumstances include (a) if there are insufficient shares of our Common Stock represented to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the special meeting of stockholders or (b) to the extent that MoneyGram has reasonably determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel and Alipay (and its outside counsel), that such postponement, recess or adjournment (which cannot exceed five business days or such longer period as the parties may agree) is necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the definitive proxy statement required by applicable law with respect to any event, circumstance, discovery of information or other set of facts first arising after the date of the merger agreement amendment was entered into is provided to our stockholders in advance of the special meeting of stockholders.

Termination of Discussions with Euronet

In connection with and pursuant to the merger agreement amendment, MoneyGram terminated discussions and negotiations with, and ceased providing due diligence information to, Euronet and its representatives with respect to Euronet’s previously submitted binding offer to acquire all of MoneyGram’s Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis) for an all-cash purchase price of $15.20 per share.

All other material terms of the original merger agreement remain substantially the same and in full force and effect as originally executed on January 26, 2017.

THE MERGER

Background of the Merger

The section entitled “Background of the Merger” beginning on page 31 of the definitive proxy statement describes the background of the transaction up to and including April 9, 2017. The discussion below supplements that description up to and including the date of this supplement.

On April 9, 2017, MoneyGram and Euronet entered into an agreement regarding the exchange of competitively sensitive material, providing for certain procedures to be followed with respect to sharing sensitive information during due diligence. Also on April 9, 2017, Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher (“Gibson Dunn”), outside counsel to Euronet, distributed a revised draft merger agreement to Vinson & Elkins, L.L.P. (“V&E”), outside counsel to MoneyGram, which draft, among other things, (i) provided that Euronet would pay the $30 million termination fee to Alipay, on behalf of MoneyGram, if the original merger agreement were terminated by MoneyGram to enter into a definitive agreement with Euronet, but lowered the reverse termination fee payable by Euronet upon termination of the Euronet merger agreement under specified circumstances by a corresponding $30 million, from $69 million to $39 million, (ii) provided that the initial end date under the Euronet merger agreement would be 12 months following signing and that either party would have the ability to extend the end date under the Euronet merger agreement to 15 months following signing if the requisite antitrust approvals had not been obtained by the 12-month end date, but the other closing conditions had been satisfied and (iii) provided that Euronet would agree to take remedial actions resulting in up to $100 million in “lost value,” but not in excess thereof, in order to obtain antitrust approval, but that no reverse termination fee would be payable by Euronet in the event the Euronet merger were not completed due to a failure to obtain requisite antitrust approvals. In the draft Euronet merger agreement provided to MoneyGram on March 14, 2017, Euronet had previously proposed that a reverse termination fee of $69 million would be payable by Euronet in the event the Euronet merger was not completed due to a failure to obtain requisite antitrust approvals. V&E distributed the April 9, 2017 draft Euronet merger agreement to Simpson Thacher & Bartlett (“Simpson Thacher”), outside counsel to Alipay, for distribution to Alipay, pursuant to the requirements in the original merger agreement with Alipay.

On the evening of April 10, 2017, Mr. Michael Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Euronet, and Ms. Pamela H. Patsley, Chairman of our board of directors, discussed key issues with respect to the Euronet merger agreement, particularly focusing on provisions in the Euronet merger agreement related to Hart-Scott Rodino Act (“HSR”) and foreign competition approvals. During such discussion, Mr. Brown proposed to Ms. Patsley that, in addition to taking remedial actions that would result in “lost value” of up to $100 million, Euronet would also agree to pay a termination fee to MoneyGram in the event any competition approval were not obtained of $39 million (in addition to foregoing any right to be reimbursed the $30 million Alipay termination fee to be paid by Euronet to Alipay upon the termination of the original merger agreement).

On April 11, 2017, our board of directors held a meeting, attended by representatives of V&E and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“BofA Merrill Lynch”), our outside financial advisor. During such meeting, representatives of V&E reviewed with our board of directors the most recent draft of the Euronet merger agreement and key outstanding issues, and also advised our board of directors with respect to the diligence and analysis that had been completed with respect to requisite U.S and foreign competition reviews of any merger between Euronet and MoneyGram. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also discussed with our board of directors their preliminary financial analysis with respect to a possible merger with Euronet. Following such discussions, our board of directors directed MoneyGram management and its legal and financial advisors to continue to seek improved merger agreement terms from Euronet, particularly with respect to providing additional certainty with respect to the receipt of U.S. and foreign competition approvals.

On the night of April 11, 2017, V&E distributed a revised draft of the Euronet merger agreement to Gibson Dunn. Consistent with the instructions from our board of directors, the draft provided that (i) Euronet would be obligated to take remedial actions that would result in “lost value” of up to $200 million on a net basis or

$300 million on a gross basis, (ii) MoneyGram would not be obligated to repay the $30 million Alipay termination fee to Euronet if the Euronet merger agreement were terminated in circumstances where MoneyGram did not owe Euronet a termination fee, other than (a) if MoneyGram stockholders voted against the Euronet merger or (b) if MoneyGram materially breached its obligations in the Euronet merger agreement, and (iii) MoneyGram would have the right, in the event of a willful and material breach of the Euronet merger agreement by Euronet, to either (a) pursue a reverse termination fee of $39 million (if payable) or (b) pursue uncapped monetary damages. V&E also contacted Gibson Dunn to request additional diligence materials with respect to potential U.S. and foreign competition approvals.

The morning of April 12, 2017, Ms. Patsley, W. Alexander Holmes, our Chief Executive Officer and a member of our board of directors, and F. Aaron Henry, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of MoneyGram, had a conversation with Mr. Brown and Mr. Rick Weller, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Euronet, and Mr. Jeffrey B. Newman, Executive Vice President and General Counsel of Euronet, with respect to certain open issues in the most recent draft Euronet merger agreement. During the course of such meeting, the participants discussed (i) the remedial actions that Euronet would be obligated to take in order to obtain competition approvals, with Euronet offering to be obligated to take remedial actions resulting in up to $150 million in “lost value” but not more, (ii) the parameters of a potential retention program MoneyGram would be permitted to implement during the pendency of a merger with Euronet, with Euronet proposing a $5 million aggregate retention pool, as opposed to MoneyGram’s original request of a $15 million retention pool, and (iii) other outstanding issues based on the most recent draft Euronet merger agreement. Among other things, the MoneyGram representatives expressed the importance to MoneyGram and our board of directors of having flexibility to manage for retention of employees during a possibly protracted regulatory approval process and given likely employee concerns regarding potential headcount reductions associated with a merger with Euronet.

On the evening of April 12, 2017, Mr. Brown distributed to Ms. Patsley a proposed “best and final” version of the Euronet merger agreement. That same night, Gibson Dunn distributed to V&E a revised draft of the MoneyGram disclosure schedules. The revised Euronet merger agreement (i) obligated Euronet to take remedial actions resulting in up to $150 million in “lost value” but not more, (ii) provided that MoneyGram would be obligated to repay Euronet the full $30 million Alipay termination fee if the Euronet merger agreement were terminated in any circumstance other than one where Euronet would owe MoneyGram a termination fee and (iii) that in all circumstances, Euronet’s liability to MoneyGram would be capped at $69 million (inclusive of the $30 million Alipay termination fee). In addition, the revised draft disclosure schedules eliminated MoneyGram’s ability to make ordinary course performance awards to employees in February 2018, if the Euronet merger were not yet consummated. V&E distributed the April 12, 2017 draft Euronet merger agreement to Simpson Thacher for distribution to Alipay, pursuant to the requirements in the original merger agreement with Alipay.

On the morning of April 13, 2017, Ms. Patsley, Mr. Holmes and Mr. Henry had a conversation with Mr. Brown, Mr. Weller and Mr. Newman with respect to the most recent draft Euronet merger agreement, including (i) the circumstances in which MoneyGram would be required to reimburse the full Alipay termination fee to Euronet, and the circumstances in which MoneyGram would only be obligated to reimburse a portion of the Alipay termination fee to Euronet, (ii) the importance to MoneyGram of being able to make ordinary course performance awards to employees in 2018 if the merger with Euronet were still pending at such time and (iii) whether or not MoneyGram would be entitled to seek monetary damages in excess of the value of the termination fee if Euronet willfully and materially breached the Euronet merger agreement, which the Euronet representatives advised was unacceptable. At the conclusion of the discussion, the Euronet representatives advised the MoneyGram representatives that they would instruct Gibson Dunn to deliver a revised Euronet merger agreement to V&E reflecting their “best and final” offer that they would present to the Euronet board of directors for approval. Following the call, Mr. Brown contacted Ms. Patsley and indicated that Euronet would agree, in the event the Euronet merger agreement were terminated due to MoneyGram suffering a material adverse effect, MoneyGram would be required to reimburse $20 million of the $30 million Alipay termination fee.

Later on April 13, 2017, Gibson Dunn distributed to V&E a revised draft of the debt commitment letter from Wells Fargo as well as a revised draft of the Euronet merger agreement, and disclosure schedules, which generally reflected the terms discussed in that morning’s call.

Throughout April 13 and April 14, 2017, the parties also worked to finalize proposed drafts of ancillary agreements and exhibits, including voting and support agreements and a consent of Goldman Sachs, as the holder of the Series D Preferred Stock.

In accordance with the merger agreement, during the course of finalizing the transaction documents related to a potential binding Euronet proposal, Ms. Patsley generally remained in contact with Mr. Douglas Feagin, Senior Vice President and Head of International Operations of Ant Financial, to advise him of the status of negotiations.

On the evening of April 14, 2017, Mr. Brown delivered to Ms. Patsley via email a written, binding offer from Euronet to acquire all of the outstanding equity of MoneyGram for $15.20 per share in cash, on the terms set forth in the Euronet merger agreement negotiated by the parties. The binding offer included definitive transaction documentation signed by Euronet, and could be accepted by MoneyGram any time prior to 10:59 a.m., Central time, on April 21, 2017 (12 hours following the expiration of Alipay’s “match rights” under the original merger agreement), so long as MoneyGram determined that the binding Euronet proposal was a Company Superior Proposal and provided notice to Alipay thereof by 10:59 p.m., Central time, on April 16, 2017. Following receipt of the binding Euronet proposal, V&E distributed the Euronet proposal to Simpson Thacher for distribution to Alipay, pursuant to the requirements in the original merger agreement with Alipay.

On the morning of April 15, 2017, Simpson Thacher delivered to V&E a written, binding offer from Alipay to amend the original merger agreement to provide, among other things, (i) an increase in the per share merger consideration from $13.25 to $18.00, (ii) an increase from $30 million to $41 million in the termination fee payable in certain circumstances by MoneyGram to Alipay, (iii) an increase from $60 million to $82 million in the termination fee payable in certain circumstances by Alipay to MoneyGram, (iv) an increase from $17.5 million to $30 million in the regulatory termination fee payable by Alipay to MoneyGram in certain circumstances where the merger is not completed due to a failure to obtain CFIUS Approval and (v) an obligation that MoneyGram hold its special meeting on May 16, 2017, subject to certain exceptions in the event new facts were to arise following entry into the merger agreement amendment.

If not accepted, the offer would expire at 10:59 p.m., Central time on April 15, 2017, and by the express terms of the offer, it was made subject to Ant Financial’s confidentiality agreements with MoneyGram and could not be disclosed to any third parties. The merger agreement amendment would not require any amendment to Alipay’s existing debt commitment letters or the voting and support agreements, but would require an updated consent of Goldman Sachs, as holder of the Series D Preferred Stock. Promptly upon delivery of the proposal, Mr. Feagin called Ms. Patsley to review the terms of the proposal, and to stress the importance of the confidentiality provision set forth in the proposal.

On the afternoon of April 15, 2017, our board of directors held a meeting to review the binding Euronet proposal received April 14, 2017 and the Alipay proposal received April 15, 2017, which meeting was attended by representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch, V&E and Paul Hastings, our outside regulatory counsel. During the meeting, representatives from V&E reviewed with our board of directors key terms of the proposed Euronet merger agreement and the proposed merger agreement amendment, and also provided an update on its analysis with respect to required U.S. and foreign competition approvals with respect to a Euronet merger and their assessment of the risks associated with such approvals. Representatives of Paul Hastings reviewed with our board of directors the then-current state of the pending CFIUS review process with respect to the merger, as well as their assessment of the risks associated with such review. Representatives of BofA Merrill Lynch also reviewed with our board of directors their financial analysis of the consideration proposed in the binding Euronet proposal and the proposed merger agreement amendment, including their financial analysis with respect to Euronet’s

ability to increase its proposed merger consideration. Following such presentation, at the request of our board of directors, BofA Merrill Lynch delivered an oral opinion, which was subsequently confirmed in writing, to the effect that, as of that date and based on and subject to the various assumptions and limitations described in its opinion, the merger consideration to be received by holders of our Common Stock upon entry into the merger agreement amendment was fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders. The full text of the written opinion of BofA Merrill Lynch is attached to this proxy supplement as Annex C and is incorporated by reference into this proxy supplement. See also “The Merger—Opinion of MoneyGram’s Financial Advisor Regarding the Merger Consideration.” Following the presentations and discussion, and after weighing the relative merits and risks of the binding Euronet proposal and the proposed merger agreement amendment with its substantially higher offer price, the members of our board of directors unanimously (i) approved and adopted the merger agreement amendment, (ii) unanimously resolved to recommend that our stockholders vote to approve and adopt the original merger agreement, as amended by the merger agreement amendment, and the merger and (iii) determined that they were unable to declare the binding Euronet proposal a “Company Superior Proposal”.

Following the meeting of our board of directors on April 15, 2017, V&E and Simpson Thacher negotiated and finalized the proposed merger agreement amendment, and MoneyGram, Alipay and the other parties thereto executed and delivered the merger agreement amendment.

On April 16, 2017, MoneyGram and Alipay issued a joint press release announcing the merger agreement amendment.

Reasons for the Merger and the Recommendation of Our Board of Directors

The section entitled “Reasons for the Merger and Recommendations of Our Board of Directors” beginning on page 44 of the definitive proxy statement describes the factors our board of directors considered in reaching its decision to approve the original merger agreement. The discussion below supplements that description.

After considering the factors more fully described in this supplement and the definitive proxy statement, on April 15, 2017, our board of directors approved resolutions (i) determining that the merger and other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement are fair to, and in the best interests of the stockholders of MoneyGram, (ii) approving, adopting and declaring advisable and authorized in all respects the merger agreement, the voting and support agreements and the merger and other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, (iii) directing that the merger be submitted to the stockholders of MoneyGram for approval at a meeting of such stockholders and (iv) recommending that stockholders of MoneyGram approve the merger (on the terms set forth in the merger agreement amendment) and approve all other actions or matters necessary or desirable to give effect to the merger pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended.

In reaching its decision to approve the amendment and the merger agreement, our board of directors consulted with our senior management and our financial and legal advisors, reviewed a significant amount of information and considered a number of factors, including, among others, the factors described in “The Merger—Reasons for the Merger and Recommendation of Our Board of Directors” beginning on page 44 of the definitive proxy statement as well as the following additional factors (not necessarily in order of relative importance):

•

The fact that the $18.00 per share in cash to be paid as merger consideration represents a premium of approximately (i) 69.5% to the volume-weighted average trading price of $10.62 for the 90-day period ended January 25, 2017, (ii) 51.5% to the closing price of $11.88 on January 25, 2017, the last trading day prior to the approval by our board of directors of the original merger agreement and (iii) 38.5% to $13.00, the two-year trading high for our Common Stock prior to January 26, 2017.

•

That BofA Merrill Lynch delivered an oral opinion, dated April 15, 2017, which was subsequently confirmed by delivery of a written opinion, dated April 15, 2017, to our board of directors as to the fairness, from a financial point of view and as of the date of the opinion, of the merger consideration to be received by holders of our Common Stock, as more fully described in the section entitled “The Merger—Opinion of MoneyGram’s Financial Advisor Regarding the Merger Consideration.” The full text of the opinion is attached as Annex C to this supplement.

•

The fact that if not accepted, the Alipay offer would expire at 10:59 p.m., Central time on April 15, 2017, the same day it was received, and by the express terms of the offer, it was subject to the terms of Ant Financial’s confidentiality agreement with MoneyGram and could not be disclosed to any third party, which prevented MoneyGram from disclosing the proposal to Euronet.

•

The obligation of Alipay under certain circumstances to pay us an increased termination fee of: (i) $82 million from $60 million, in connection with any failure to consummate the merger if the relevant conditions are satisfied and in certain circumstances following a willful and material breach by Alipay or Merger Sub; and (ii) $30 million from $17.5 million, in connection with the termination of the merger agreement in specified circumstances when CFIUS Approval has not been obtained.

•

Our board of directors considered the terms of the revised debt financing commitments provided to Guarantor on March 28, 2017, including the limited conditionality set forth in such commitments and that the commitments provided full funding for the increased purchase price, together with the financial capabilities and reputation of the financing sources, including the fact that all of the financing was committed by a group of international financial institutions consisting of Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited, Citibank N.A., Hong Kong Branch, Citigroup Global Markets Asia Limited, Credit Suisse AG, Singapore Branch, DBS Bank Ltd., Goldman Sachs Bank USA, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Hong Kong Branch, Mizuho Bank, Ltd. and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding Inc.

•

The following aspects associated with the Euronet proposal:

•

That Euronet’s offer of $15.20 per share in cash was $2.80 less than the price per share offered by Alipay in the merger agreement amendment;

•

That our board of directors was not able to determine that the Euronet proposal constituted a “Company Superior Proposal” as defined in the merger agreement, after taking into account the requirements in the merger agreement, including the changes to the terms of the merger agreement proposed by Alipay in the merger agreement amendment;

•

That the Euronet proposal contained some closing risk given the potential regulatory risks presented by a combination of two direct competitors.

•

determines the competing proposal could reasonably be expected to lead to a “Company Superior Proposal,” subject to certain restrictions and the requirement that we pay Alipay a termination fee of $41 million if we terminate the merger agreement to accept a Company Superior Proposal.

•

The continued right of our board of directors to change its recommendation, subject to certain restrictions, in connection with a Company Superior Proposal or other circumstances in which our board of directors determines the failure to do so would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable law.

•

The belief of our board of directors that, although the no solicitation covenant and increased termination fee provisions might have the effect of discouraging Euronet from making a revised acquisition proposal or other potential acquirers from making an acquisition proposal or reducing the price of such proposals, such provisions are customary for transactions of this size and type, and its belief that the increased termination fee of $41 million, which continues to represent approximately 3.4% of the equity value of the transaction, was reasonable in the context of comparable transactions, and was not likely to deter Euronet from submitting another binding offer.

The foregoing discussion is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the information and factors considered by our board of directors in its consideration of the merger, but is merely a summary of the material positive and negative factors considered by our board of directors in that regard. In view of the number and variety of factors and the amount of information considered, our board of directors did not find it practicable to make specific assessments of, quantify, or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching its determination. In addition, our board of directors did not undertake to make any specific determination as to whether any particular factor, or any aspect of any particular factor, was favorable or unfavorable to its ultimate determination, and individual members of our board of directors may have given different weights to different factors. Based on the totality of the information presented, our board of directors collectively reached the unanimous decision to approve and adopt the merger agreement amendment and the merger in light of the factors described above and other factors that the members of our board of directors felt were appropriate.

This explanation of MoneyGram’s reasons for the merger and other information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Opinion of MoneyGram’s Financial Advisor Regarding the Merger Consideration

The following is intended to replace and supplement the section entitled “The Merger—Opinion of MoneyGram’s Financial Advisor Regarding the Merger Consideration” beginning on page 49 of the definitive proxy statement:

MoneyGram has retained BofA Merrill Lynch to act as MoneyGram’s financial advisor in connection with the merger. BofA Merrill Lynch is an internationally recognized investment banking firm which is regularly engaged in the valuation of businesses and securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for corporate and other purposes. MoneyGram selected BofA Merrill Lynch to act as MoneyGram’s financial advisor in connection with the merger on the basis of BofA Merrill Lynch’s experience in transactions similar to the merger, its reputation in the investment community and its familiarity with MoneyGram and its business.

On April 15, 2017, at a meeting of our board of directors which was held to consider the merger agreement amendment, BofA Merrill Lynch delivered to our board of directors an oral opinion, confirmed by delivery of a written opinion dated April 15, 2017, to the effect that, as of the date of the opinion and based on and subject to various assumptions and limitations described in its opinion, the merger consideration to be received by holders of our Common Stock was fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.

The full text of BofA Merrill Lynch’s written opinion, dated April 15, 2017, to our board of directors, which describes, among other things, the assumptions made, procedures followed, factors considered and limitations on the review undertaken, is attached as Annex C to this proxy statement and is incorporated

by reference herein in its entirety. The following summary of BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the opinion. BofA Merrill Lynch delivered its opinion to our board of directors for the benefit and use of our board of directors (in its capacity as our board of directors) in connection with and for purposes of its evaluation of the amended per share merger consideration from a financial point of view. BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion does not address any other aspect of the merger and no opinion or view was expressed as to the relative merits of the merger in comparison to other strategies or transactions that might be available to MoneyGram or in which MoneyGram might engage or as to the underlying business decision of MoneyGram to proceed with or effect the merger. BofA Merrill Lynch also expressed no opinion or recommendation as to how any stockholder should vote or act in connection with the proposed merger or any other matter.

In connection with its opinion, BofA Merrill Lynch, among other things:

•

reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information relating to MoneyGram;

•

reviewed certain internal financial and operating information with respect to the business, operations and prospects of MoneyGram furnished to or discussed with BofA Merrill Lynch by the management of MoneyGram, including certain financial forecasts relating to MoneyGram prepared by the management of MoneyGram, which are described under “Unaudited Financial Projections of MoneyGram” and referred to in the proxy statement as the “MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections”;

•

discussed the past and current business, operations, financial condition and prospects of MoneyGram with members of senior management of MoneyGram;

•

reviewed the trading history for our Common Stock and a comparison of that trading history with the trading histories of other companies BofA Merrill Lynch deemed relevant;

•

compared certain financial and stock market information of MoneyGram with similar information of other companies BofA Merrill Lynch deemed relevant;

•

compared certain financial terms of the merger to financial terms, to the extent publicly available, of other transactions BofA Merrill Lynch deemed relevant;

•

reviewed the original merger agreement;

•

reviewed a draft, dated April 15, 2017, of the merger agreement amendment (which we refer to in this section of this proxy statement as the “Draft Amendment”); and

•

performed such other analyses and studies and considered such other information and factors as BofA Merrill Lynch deemed appropriate.

In arriving at its opinion, BofA Merrill Lynch assumed and relied upon, without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of the financial and other information and data publicly available or provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with it and relied upon the assurances of the management of MoneyGram that it is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make such information or data inaccurate or misleading in any material respect. With respect to the MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections, BofA Merrill Lynch was advised by MoneyGram, and assumed, that they were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of MoneyGram as to the future financial performance of MoneyGram. BofA Merrill Lynch did not make and was not provided with any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of MoneyGram or any other entity, nor did it make any physical inspection of the properties or assets of MoneyGram. BofA Merrill Lynch did not evaluate the solvency or fair value of MoneyGram or Alipay under any state, federal or other laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. BofA Merrill Lynch assumed, at the direction of MoneyGram, that the merger would be consummated in accordance with its terms, without waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary governmental, regulatory and other approvals, consents, releases and waivers for the merger, no delay, limitation,

restriction or condition, including any divestiture requirements or amendments or modifications, would be imposed that would have an adverse effect on MoneyGram or the contemplated benefits of the merger. BofA Merrill Lynch also assumed, at the direction of MoneyGram, that the final executed amendment did not differ in any material respect from the Draft Amendment reviewed by BofA Merrill Lynch.

BofA Merrill Lynch expressed no view or opinion as to any terms or other aspects or implications of the merger (other than the merger consideration to the extent expressly specified in its opinion), including, without limitation, the form or structure of the merger, any related transactions or any voting or other agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into in connection with or related to the merger or otherwise. At the direction of MoneyGram, BofA Merrill Lynch engaged in only a limited solicitation of proposals from selected third parties regarding a possible acquisition of MoneyGram. BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion was limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the merger consideration to be received by the holders of our Common Stock and no opinion or view was expressed with respect to any other consideration received in connection with the merger by the holders of any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of any party. In addition, no opinion or view was expressed with respect to the fairness (financial or otherwise) of the amount, nature or any other aspect of any compensation to any of the officers, directors or employees of any party to the merger, or class of such persons, relative to the merger consideration or otherwise. Furthermore, no opinion or view was expressed as to the relative merits of the merger in comparison to other strategies or transactions that might be available to MoneyGram or in which MoneyGram might engage or as to the underlying business decision of MoneyGram to proceed with or effect the merger. In addition, BofA Merrill Lynch did not express any view or opinion with respect to, and relied, at the direction of MoneyGram, upon the assessments of MoneyGram and its representatives regarding, legal, regulatory, accounting, tax and similar matters relating to MoneyGram or any other entity and the merger, as to which matters BofA Merrill Lynch understood that MoneyGram had obtained such advice as MoneyGram deemed necessary from qualified professionals. BofA Merrill Lynch further expressed no opinion or recommendation as to how any stockholder should vote or act in connection with the merger or any other matter. Except as described above, MoneyGram imposed no other limitations on the investigations made or procedures followed by BofA Merrill Lynch in rendering its opinion.

BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion was necessarily based on financial, economic, monetary, market and other conditions and circumstances as in effect on, and the information made available to BofA Merrill Lynch as of, the date of its opinion. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect its opinion, and BofA Merrill Lynch does not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm its opinion. The issuance of BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion was approved by a fairness opinion review committee of BofA Merrill Lynch.

The discussion set forth below in the section entitled “—MoneyGram Financial Analyses” represents a brief summary of the material financial analyses presented by BofA Merrill Lynch to our board of directors on April 15, 2017 in connection with its opinion, dated April 15, 2017. The financial analyses summarized below include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand the financial analyses performed by BofA Merrill Lynch, the tables must be read together with the text of each summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses performed by BofA Merrill Lynch. Considering the data set forth in the tables below without considering the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the financial analyses performed by BofA Merrill Lynch.

MoneyGram Financial Analyses

Selected Publicly Traded Companies Analysis. BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed publicly available financial and stock market information for MoneyGram and the following 15 selected publicly traded companies in the money remittance, consumer financial services and payments processing businesses, of which, in BofA Merrill Lynch’s professional judgment and experience, the companies designated as primary selected publicly traded companies were more similar to MoneyGram than the other selected publicly traded companies (which BofA

Merrill Lynch further classified, based on its professional judgment and experience, between payment processors and financial technology (“processor and fintech”) companies and consumer finance companies), in each case when viewed as a whole, as regards to financial, operating and other characteristics:

BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed, among other things, enterprise values (“EVs”) of the selected publicly traded companies, calculated as their equity values based on their closing stock prices on April 13, 2017 and the number of their fully diluted shares using the treasury stock method, plus debt, preferred stock, minority interests, the after-tax value of pension and post-retirement liabilities and SERP liabilities, and less cash, short-term investments and long-term investments, as a multiple of calendar year 2016 and 2017 estimated adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciations and amortization, not burdened by stock-based compensation expenses, special charges, one-time items and amortization of intangibles, referred to as “Adjusted EBITDA,” but burdened by amortization of signing bonus payments, as applicable (“Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened)”). Amortization costs of signing bonus payments for MoneyGram were assumed to be $54.9 million, $51.1 million, $51.8 million and $48.2 million for the years ending December 31, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, based on the MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections. BofA Merrill Lynch also reviewed per share equity values, based on closing stock prices on April 13, 2017, of the selected publicly traded companies as a multiple of calendar years 2017 and 2018 estimated adjusted earnings per share, not burdened by stock-based compensation expenses, special charges, one-time items and amortization of acquired intangibles (“Adjusted EPS”).

The mean and median EV / calendar year 2016 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiples observed for the primary selected publicly traded companies were 9.6x and 8.7x, respectively, and the mean and median EV / calendar year 2017 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiple observed for the primary selected publicly traded companies were 9.1x and 9.0x, respectively. The mean and median price / calendar year 2017

estimated Adjusted EPS multiples observed for the primary selected publicly traded companies were 14.0x and 13.5x, respectively, and the mean and median price / calendar year 2018 estimated Adjusted EPS multiples observed for the primary selected publicly traded companies were 12.8x and 12.6x, respectively.

The mean and median EV / calendar year 2016 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiples observed for the other selected processor and fintech companies were 10.4x and 9.3x, respectively, and the mean and median EV / calendar year 2017 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiples observed for the other selected processor and fintech companies was 9.6x. The mean and median price / calendar year 2017 estimated Adjusted EPS multiples observed for the other selected processor and fintech companies were 15.4x and 15.2x, respectively, and the mean and median price / calendar year 2018 estimated Adjusted EPS multiples observed for the other selected processor and fintech companies were 13.5x and 13.4x, respectively. The mean and median price / calendar year 2017 estimated Adjusted EPS multiple observed for the other selected consumer finance companies was 8.4x, and the mean and median price / calendar year 2018 estimated Adjusted EPS multiples observed for the other selected consumer finance companies were 7.4x and 7.2x, respectively. BofA Merrill Lynch noted that, in light of differences in the financial and operating characteristics of the other selected consumer finance companies and the other two groups of publicly traded companies, the mean and median EV / calendar year 2016 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiples for the other selected consumer finance companies was not relevant to its selected publicly traded companies analysis and BofA Merrill Lynch therefore did not compute such multiples.

BofA Merrill Lynch then observed that the shares of our Common Stock historically traded at a discount to the common stock of the selected publicly traded companies according to certain measures. In particular, BofA Merrill Lynch observed that MoneyGram’s multiple of equity value to estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) (i) over the three years ended January 25, 2017 (the last trading day prior to the announcement of the merger), averaged 1.4x and 3.2x lower than the mean of such multiple for each of the primary selected publicly traded companies and the other selected processor and fintech companies, respectively; (ii) over the year ended January 25, 2017, averaged 1.7x and 2.8x lower than the mean of such multiple for each of the primary selected publicly traded companies and the other selected processor and fintech companies, respectively; and (iii) for the next 12 months as of January 25, 2017 (“NTM”) was 0.8x and 2.3x lower than the mean of such multiple for each of the primary selected publicly traded companies and the other selected processor and fintech companies, respectively. Similarly, BofA Merrill Lynch observed that MoneyGram’s price / estimated Adjusted EPS multiple (i) over the three years ended January 25, 2017, averaged 4.3x, 4.8x and 0.2x lower than the mean of such multiple as between MoneyGram and each of the primary selected publicly traded companies, the other selected processors and fintech companies and the other selected consumer finance companies, respectively; (ii) over the year ended January 25, 2017, averaged 4.8x lower than the mean of such multiple for each of the primary selected publicly traded companies and the other selected processor and fintech companies, and 0.2x higher than the mean of such multiple for the other selected consumer finance companies; and (iii) for NTM, was 1.7x and 3.5x lower than the mean of such multiple for each of the primary selected publicly traded companies and the other selected processor and fintech companies, respectively, and 2.9x higher than the mean of the other selected consumer finance companies. Based on its professional judgment and experience and after taking into consideration, among other things, the observed data for the selected publicly traded companies and for MoneyGram (including the observations described above), BofA Merrill Lynch then applied (i) low to high EV / calendar year 2017 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiples of 7.0x to 9.0x derived from the selected publicly traded companies analysis to fiscal year 2017 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) for MoneyGram, and (ii) low to high price / calendar year 2017 estimated Adjusted EPS multiples of 11.5x to 14.5x derived from the selected publicly traded companies analysis to fiscal year 2017 estimated Adjusted EPS for MoneyGram. Estimated financial data of the selected publicly traded companies were based on publicly available research analysts’ estimates, and estimated financial data of MoneyGram were based on the MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections and MoneyGram’s financial results for calendar year 2016. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity value reference ranges for MoneyGram (rounded to the nearest $0.05 per share), as compared to the merger consideration:


Implied Per Share Equity Value Reference Ranges for MoneyGram Based on:	FY 2017E Adjusted EPS		Merger Consideration
FY 2017E Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened)	FY 2017E Adjusted EPS		Merger Consideration
$11.40 - $18.20	$	11.15 - $14.05	$	18.00

No company used in this analysis is identical to MoneyGram. Accordingly, an evaluation of the results of this analysis is not entirely mathematical. Rather, this analysis involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the public trading or other values of the companies to which MoneyGram was compared.

Selected Precedent Transactions Analysis. BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed, to the extent publicly available, financial information relating to the following nine selected transactions involving companies in the payments processing and money remittance businesses:


Date Announced	Acquiror(s)	Target
July 25, 2016	Apollo Global Management, LLC	Outerwall Inc.
September 18, 2014	Green Dot Corporation	Santa Barbara Tax Products Group
January 30, 2013	ACI Worldwide, Inc.	Online Resources Corporation
January 14, 2013	Fiserv, Inc.	Open Solutions Inc.
September 15, 2010	Vantiv, LLC	National Processing Co.
July 1, 2010	Apollo Management LP	EVERTEC, Inc.
April 1, 2009	Fidelity National Information Services, Inc.	Metavante Technologies, Inc.
March 30, 2009	Advent International Corporation	Fifth Third Processing Solutions, LLC
February 12, 2008	Thomas H Lee Partners LP and Goldman, Sachs & Co.	MoneyGram International, Inc.(1)

(1)	Represents recapitalization transaction of MoneyGram by Thomas H. Lee Partners and Goldman Sachs for an approximately 79% equity stake through the issuance of preferred securities.

BofA Merrill Lynch reviewed transaction values (“TVs”), calculated as the enterprise value implied for the target company based on the consideration payable in the selected transaction, as a multiple of (i) the target company’s latest 12 months (“LTM”) Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) and (ii) the target company’s estimated NTM Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened). The overall low to high TV / LTM Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiple and TV / estimated NTM Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiple observed for the selected transactions were 3.6x to 9.1x (with a mean of 7.0x and a median of 7.4x) and 4.2x to 9.3x (with a mean of 7.0x and a median of 7.3x), respectively. Based on its professional judgment and experience and after taking into consideration, among other things, the observed data for the selected precedent transactions, BofA Merrill Lynch then applied (x) a selected range of TV / LTM Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiples of 7.0x to 8.5x derived from the selected transactions analysis to fiscal year 2016 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) for MoneyGram, and (y) a selected range of TV / estimated NTM Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) multiples of 6.5x to 8.0x derived from the selected transactions analysis to fiscal year 2017 estimated Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) for MoneyGram. Estimated financial data of the selected transactions were based on publicly available information at the time of announcement of the relevant transaction, and estimated financial data of MoneyGram were based on the MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections and MoneyGram’s financial results for calendar year 2016. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity value reference ranges for MoneyGram (rounded to the nearest $0.05 per share), as compared to the merger consideration:


Implied Per Share Equity Value Reference Ranges for MoneyGram Based on:	FY 2017E Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened)		Merger Consideration
FY 2016E Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened)	FY 2017E Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened)		Merger Consideration
$9.50 - $14.25	$	9.70 - $14.80	$	18.00

No company, business or transaction used in this analysis is identical to MoneyGram or the merger. Accordingly, an evaluation of the results of this analysis is not entirely mathematical. Rather, this analysis involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect the acquisition or other values of the companies, business segments or transactions to which MoneyGram and the merger were compared.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. BofA Merrill Lynch performed a discounted cash flow analysis of MoneyGram to calculate the estimated present value of the standalone unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that MoneyGram was forecasted to generate during MoneyGram’s fiscal year 2017 through fiscal year 2020 based on the MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections. BofA Merrill Lynch calculated terminal values for MoneyGram by applying perpetuity growth rates ranging from 3.00% to 3.50% to MoneyGram’s terminal year estimated standalone unlevered, after-tax free cash flows. The cash flows and terminal values were then discounted to present value as of December 31, 2016 using discount rates ranging from 10.75% to 12.75%, which were based on an estimate of MoneyGram’s weighted average cost of capital. This analysis indicated the following approximate implied per share equity value reference range for MoneyGram (rounded to the nearest $0.05 per share), as compared to the merger consideration:


Implied Per Share Equity Value Reference Range for MoneyGram	Merger Consideration
$10.00 - $17.50	$	18.00

Other Factors

BofA Merrill Lynch also noted certain additional factors that were not considered part of BofA Merrill Lynch’s material financial analyses with respect to its opinion but were referenced for informational purposes, including, among other things, the following:

•

historical trading prices and trading volumes of our Common Stock, which indicated low and high closing prices for our Common Stock during the 52-week period ended January 25, 2017 (the last trading day prior to the announcement of the merger) of approximately $4.75 to $13.00 per share (rounded to the nearest $0.05 per share); and

•

one-year future stock price targets for our Common Stock in publicly available research analyst reports, which indicated stock price targets for MoneyGram, discounted to present value utilizing MoneyGram’s cost of equity of 17.1% (as determined by BofA Merrill Lynch based on an estimate of MoneyGram’s weighted average cost of capital), of a range of approximately (i) $6.00 to $11.10 per share (rounded to the nearest $0.05 per share) as of January 25, 2017, and (ii) $6.00 to $13.65 per share (rounded to the nearest $0.05 per share) as of April 13, 2017.

Miscellaneous

As noted above, the discussion set forth above in the section entitled “—MoneyGram Financial Analyses” is a summary of the financial analyses presented by BofA Merrill Lynch to our board of directors in connection with its opinion and is not a comprehensive description of all analyses undertaken or factors considered by BofA Merrill Lynch in connection with its opinion. The preparation of a financial opinion is a complex analytical process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances and, therefore, a financial opinion is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. BofA Merrill Lynch believes that its analyses summarized above must be considered as a whole. BofA Merrill Lynch further believes that selecting portions of its analyses and the factors considered or focusing on information presented in tabular format, without considering all analyses and factors or the narrative description of the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the processes underlying BofA Merrill Lynch’s analyses and opinion. The fact that any specific analysis has been referred to in the summary above is not meant to indicate that such analysis was given greater weight than any other analysis referred to in the summary.

In performing its analyses, BofA Merrill Lynch considered industry performance, general business and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of MoneyGram. The estimates of the future performance of MoneyGram in or underlying BofA Merrill Lynch’s analyses are not necessarily indicative of actual values or actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those

estimates or those suggested by BofA Merrill Lynch’s analyses. These analyses were prepared solely as part of BofA Merrill Lynch’s analysis of the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the merger consideration and were provided to our board of directors in connection with the delivery of BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion. The analyses do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which a company might actually be sold or acquired or the prices at which any securities have traded or may trade at any time in the future. Accordingly, the estimates used in, and the ranges of valuations resulting from, any particular analysis described above are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty and should not be taken to be BofA Merrill Lynch’s view of the actual value of MoneyGram.

The type and amount of consideration payable in the merger was determined through negotiations between MoneyGram and Alipay, rather than by any financial advisor, and was approved by our board of directors. The decision to enter into the merger agreement was solely that of our board of directors. As described above, BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinion and analyses were only one of many factors considered by our board of directors in its evaluation of the merger and should not be viewed as determinative of the views of our board of directors, management or any other party with respect to the merger or the merger consideration.

MoneyGram has agreed to pay BofA Merrill Lynch for its services in connection with the merger an aggregate fee currently estimated to be approximately $18 million, $2 million of which was payable upon the delivery of BofA Merrill Lynch’s opinions and approximately $16 million of which is contingent upon the consummation of the merger. MoneyGram also has agreed to reimburse BofA Merrill Lynch for its expenses, including fees and expenses of its legal counsel, incurred in connection with BofA Merrill Lynch’s engagement and to indemnify BofA Merrill Lynch, any controlling person of BofA Merrill Lynch and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the federal securities laws. Pursuant to its engagement letter with MoneyGram, BofA Merrill Lynch would be entitled to a transaction fee from MoneyGram in connection with any merger or similar acquisition transaction, irrespective of the identity of the acquirer. Such fee would generally be higher for a transaction that provides for greater merger consideration.

BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates comprise a full service securities firm and commercial bank engaged in securities, commodities and derivatives trading, foreign exchange and other brokerage activities, and principal investing as well as providing investment, corporate and private banking, asset and investment management, financing and financial advisory services and other commercial services and products to a wide range of companies, governments and individuals. In the ordinary course of their businesses, BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates may invest on a principal basis or on behalf of customers or manage funds that invest, make or hold long or short positions, finance positions or trade or otherwise effect transactions in equity, debt or other securities or financial instruments (including derivatives, bank loans or other obligations) of MoneyGram, Alipay and certain of their respective affiliates.

BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to MoneyGram and certain of its affiliates and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having acted or acting as administrative agent, bookrunner, co-lead arranger for, and as a lender (including a swing line lender and a letter of credit lender) under, certain credit facilities and/or agreements of MoneyGram, and (ii) having provided or providing certain foreign exchange, treasury and trade management services and products to MoneyGram. From January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2017, BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates derived aggregate revenues from MoneyGram and its affiliates of approximately $14 million for investment and corporate banking services.

In addition, BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P., an affiliate of MoneyGram (“TH Lee”) and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having

acted or acting as financial advisor to TH Lee and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies in connection with certain mergers and acquisition transactions, (ii) having acted or acting as administrative agent, collateral agent, arranger, bookrunner and/or lender for TH Lee and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies in connection with the financing for various acquisition transactions, (iii) having acted or acting as underwriter, initial purchaser and placement agent for various equity and debt offerings undertaken by TH Lee and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies and (iv) having provided or providing certain treasury and trade services and products to TH Lee and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies. From January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2017, BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates derived aggregate revenues from TH Lee and its affiliates and portfolio companies of approximately $125 million for investment and corporate banking services.

In addition, BofA Merrill Lynch and its affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Alipay, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., and certain of their respective affiliates and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including having acted or acting as a lender to Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. and certain of its affiliates under various credit, leasing and/or other facilities. BofA Merrill Lynch has advised us that from January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2017, it and its affiliates derived aggregate revenues from Alipay, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. and certain of their respective affiliates of approximately $3.5 million for investment and corporate banking services.

Unaudited Financial Projections of MoneyGram

The following information supplements the section in the definitive proxy statement entitled “The Merger—Unaudited Financial Projections of MoneyGram” on page 57 of the definitive proxy statement.

MoneyGram does not usually make public detailed projections as to earnings or other results, due to, among other reasons, the unpredictability of the underlying assumptions and estimates inherent in preparing financial projections. However, the senior management of MoneyGram regularly prepares, for internal purposes, prospective financial information in connection with its ordinary course strategic planning and, in connection with the evaluation of a possible transaction, prospective financial information regarding MoneyGram’s future performance on a standalone basis for the years 2016 through 2020 (the “MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections”), was provided to our board of directors and BofA Merrill Lynch, as the financial advisor to MoneyGram, to assist in evaluating MoneyGram’s operations and prospects and the merger. In addition, the MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections were provided to Ant Financial and Citigroup, as the financial advisor to Alipay, in connection with its evaluation of MoneyGram and its analysis of the merger. The MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections were prepared as of December 2, 2016, and subsequently updated on December 7, 2016. It was first provided to our board of directors on December 15, 2016, to BofA Merrill Lynch on December 3, 2016 and on December 9, 2016 to Ant Financial. The MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections were subsequently updated on April 10, 2017 (the “Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections”) and were provided to our board of directors and BofA Merrill Lynch in connection with the evaluation of MoneyGram’s operations and the proposed merger agreement amendment with Alipay and to Euronet in connection with our discussions and negotiations with Euronet with respect to the Euronet proposal. The Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections also reflect a change in the accounting presentation of MoneyGram as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 with respect to how we account for foreign exchange revenue (note that the MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections included in the definitive proxy statement do not reflect this change). For further description of this change, see Note 16 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections were not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or with a view toward complying with GAAP, the guidelines of the SEC with respect to prospective financial information or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants with respect to prospective financial information. In the view of MoneyGram’s management, this information was,

based on certain growth assumptions, prepared on a reasonable basis, reflected the best available estimates and judgments at the time of its preparation, and presented, to the best of MoneyGram’s management’s knowledge and belief, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance of MoneyGram on a standalone basis at the time of its preparation. However, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being indicative of future results and you are cautioned not to rely on the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections. The Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections do not reflect any impact of the merger and do not take into account the potential consequences should the merger fail to be consummated, and should not be viewed as accurate or continuing in those contexts.

Neither MoneyGram’s independent auditors, nor any other independent accountants, have compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the prospective financial information contained herein, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for the prospective financial information. The reports of the independent registered public accounting firms incorporated by reference into this proxy supplement relate to the historical financial information of MoneyGram. The reports do not extend to the unaudited financial projections and should not be read to do so.

In developing the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections, MoneyGram’s management made numerous material assumptions with respect to MoneyGram for the periods covered by the projections, including, but not limited to, the following:

•

the revenues, operating expenses and margins from existing business activities;

•

assumptions with respect to organic growth projects and other capital investments, such as our investments to enhance compliance, and the amounts and timing of capital expenditures and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), if any, associated with such projects;

•

the availability and cost of debt and equity;

•

assumptions relating to the demand for our services;

•

assumptions relating to the taxes we will incur in the various jurisdictions in which we operate; and

•

other general business, market, regulatory and financial assumptions.

All of these assumptions involve variables making them difficult to predict, and most are beyond the control of MoneyGram. Although MoneyGram’s management believes that there was a reasonable basis for the underlying assumptions related to the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections, any assumptions for near-term and long-term projected cases remain uncertain, and the risk of inaccuracy increases with the length of the forecasted period.


	Year Ending December 31,
	2017E		2018E		2019E		2020E
	($ in millions)
Revenue	$	1,694.8	$	1,815.2	$	1,956.4	$	2,121.1

Adjusted EBITDA(1)	$	283.3	$	310.0	$	340.0	$	374.6

(1)

“Adjusted EBITDA” for purposes of this table means earnings before interest expense, tax, depreciation and amortization, plus special charges and other one-time items, stock-based compensation and amortization of intangibles. Amortization costs of signing bonus payments for MoneyGram, which was used by BofA Merrill Lynch in calculating Adjusted EBITDA (Burdened) as described above in “The Merger—Opinion of MoneyGram’s Financial Advisor Regarding the Merger Consideration”, were projected by management of MoneyGram to be $54.9 million, $51.1 million, $51.8 million and $48.2 million for the years 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or net income as a measure of operating performance or cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA does not include the impact of any potential synergies or costs related to the merger.

The estimates and assumptions underlying the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections are inherently uncertain and, though considered reasonable by the management of MoneyGram as of the date of the preparation of such projections, are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive risks and uncertainties that are outside of the control of MoneyGram and could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections, including, among other things, the matters described in the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the projections are indicative of the future performance of MoneyGram, or that actual results will not differ materially from the presented in the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections. Inclusion of the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections in this proxy supplement should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections will be achieved. In light of the foregoing factors and the uncertainties inherent in the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections, MoneyGram stockholders are cautioned not to place undue, if any, reliance on the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections.

The inclusion of the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections in this supplement should not be regarded as an indication such projections are material information of MoneyGram or predictive of actual future results nor should it be construed as financial guidance, and it should not be relied upon as such. The Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections are not included in this supplement in order to induce any MoneyGram stockholder to vote in favor of any of the proposals at the special meeting, but have been included solely because the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections were made available by management of MoneyGram to our board of directors and BofA Merrill Lynch and the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections were used by BofA Merrill Lynch in connection with the rendering of its fairness opinion to our board of directors in respect of the increased purchase price of $18.00 per share and performing its related financial analyses, as described in the section entitled “The Merger—Opinion of MoneyGram’s Financial Advisor Regarding the Merger Consideration.” MoneyGram has made no representation to Ant Financial, Alipay, Merger Sub or Guarantor, in the merger agreement or otherwise, concerning the Updated MoneyGram Unaudited Financial Projections.

WE DO NOT INTEND TO REVISE THE UPDATED MONEYGRAM UNAUDITED FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS TO REFLECT CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AFTER THE DATE WHEN MADE OR TO REFLECT THE OCCURRENCE OF FUTURE EVENTS, EVEN IN THE EVENT THAT ANY OR ALL OF THE ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE UPDATED MONEYGRAM UNAUDITED FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS ARE NO LONGER APPROPRIATE.

Interests of MoneyGram’s Executive Officers and Directors in the Merger

In light of the increased merger consideration resulting from the execution of the merger agreement amendment, we believe it important to supplement the information contained in the section under the heading “The Merger—Interests of MoneyGram’s Executive Officers and Directors in the Merger” beginning on page 59 of the definitive proxy statement with the following:

In considering the recommendation of our board of directors with respect to the merger agreement and the merger, you should be aware that our executive officers and directors may have interests in the merger described below that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders generally. Our board of directors was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in making its determinations and recommendations in connection with the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

Consideration Payable for Shares Held Pursuant to the Merger Agreement

The executive officers and directors of MoneyGram who hold Common Stock at the closing of the merger will be eligible to receive the same amended per merger consideration as the other MoneyGram stockholders with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock held. In addition, in connection with the execution of the original merger

agreement, certain affiliates and co-investors of Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (“THL”) and certain directors and executive officers of MoneyGram, who collectively hold approximately 46% of the outstanding Common Stock entered into voting and support agreements with Alipay and MoneyGram, where THL and each of such directors and officers agreed to, among other things, vote all of the Common Stock owned by such person (a) in favor of the approval and adoption of the merger agreement and (b) against (i) any Company acquisition proposal, or any other proposal made in opposition to, in competition with, or inconsistent with the merger agreement, the merger or the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and (ii) any other action, agreement or proposal that could reasonably be expected to delay, postpone or adversely affect the consummation of the merger. See “The Voting and Support Agreements” beginning on page 103 of the definitive proxy statement. The executive officers and directors of MoneyGram held, in the aggregate, 25,087,039 shares of Common Stock (or approximately 46.5% of all outstanding Common Stock) as of the record date, excluding shares issuable upon exercise of MoneyGram Options or subject to outstanding MoneyGram RSUs, which are discussed below.

The table below sets forth the number of shares held by the executive officers and directors of MoneyGram as of the record date, excluding MoneyGram Options and MoneyGram RSUs, and the value (at $18.00 per share) they would receive for those shares upon consummation of the merger.

Our executive officers and directors may continue to engage in transactions involving shares of Common Stock prior to the effective time of the merger.

Treatment of Outstanding Equity and Long-Term Incentive Awards

Under the merger agreement, outstanding MoneyGram Options and MoneyGram RSUs granted under MoneyGram’s equity plans held by all award holders, including MoneyGram’s executive officers and directors, will be converted into cash or cash-settled long-term incentive awards, respectively.

Stock Options. As described in “The Merger Agreement—Treatment of Equity Awards” beginning on page 82 of the definitive proxy statement, unless otherwise agreed to in writing with the holder, each outstanding MoneyGram Option, whether vested or unvested, granted under the 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan will be converted into a cash payment (subject to any applicable withholding taxes) equal to the product of (x) the excess, if any, of the amended per share merger consideration over the applicable exercise price of such MoneyGram Option and (y) the number (determined without reference to vesting requirements or other limitations on exercisability) of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such MoneyGram Option.

The amended per share merger consideration is equal to $18.00 per share of Common Stock. Any MoneyGram Option with an exercise price equal to or greater than the merger consideration will be cancelled without consideration. As of the record date, MoneyGram’s executive officers held the following numbers of outstanding MoneyGram Options (other than MoneyGram Options that have exercise prices equal to or greater than $18.00):


Name	Vested Options						Accelerated Options

Restricted Stock Units. As described in “The Merger Agreement—Treatment of Equity Awards” beginning on page 82 of the definitive proxy statement, each outstanding MoneyGram RSU, whether subject to performance-based vesting requirements or time-based vesting requirements, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the holder, will be converted into a cash-settled long-term incentive award, representing a right to receive an amount of cash, without interest, equal to the amended per share merger consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the MoneyGram RSU, on the same vesting terms and conditions applicable to such MoneyGram RSU (each, a “converted award”).

As of the record date, MoneyGram’s executive officers held the following numbers of outstanding MoneyGram RSUs (expressed in shares of Common Stock):


Name	Aggregate Number of Shares Subject to Restricted Stock Units(1)		Total Cash Value of Converted Awards
Pamela H. Patsley		483,148	$	8,696,664

(1)	Reflects 2017 performance-based MoneyGram RSUs at the target level.

The converted awards will remain subject to the same vesting terms and conditions following the effective time of the merger that apply to outstanding MoneyGram RSUs, including the provisions regarding acceleration in connection with specified terminations of employment, as described below.

Performance Cash Awards. In addition, outstanding long-term performance-based cash awards (“performance cash awards”) granted to executive officers in 2016 and 2017 will continue following the effective time of the merger, subject to their existing terms and conditions. Please see Footnote 1 to the Golden Parachute Compensation table in the section entitled “The Merger—Interests of MoneyGram’s Executive Officers and Directors in the Merger—Information for Advisory Vote on Merger-Related Compensation for our Named Executive Officers” below for a description of the unvested performance cash awards held by our named executive officers.

Accelerated Vesting of Restricted Stock Units and Performance Cash Awards. None of the MoneyGram RSUs or performance cash awards provide for accelerated vesting solely upon a “change in control” transaction such as the merger, and the merger agreement does not provide for accelerated vesting of any MoneyGram RSUs or performance cash awards.

Generally, MoneyGram RSUs and performance cash awards are subject to service-based vesting conditions that lapse on the first three annual anniversaries of the original dates of grant of the awards. In addition, performance cash awards and performance-based MoneyGram RSUs granted in February 2017 are subject to the satisfaction of specified performance conditions for fiscal year 2017, which determine the extent to which such awards may vest. Those performance conditions may be adjusted to take into account certain impacts of the proposed merger. Pursuant to the terms of the award agreements governing the MoneyGram RSUs and the performance cash awards, the vesting of such awards accelerates in full (at target level, in the case of awards subject to performance conditions) if an executive officer’s employment is terminated without “cause” or for “good reason” within 12 months following a “change in control” such as the merger (as such terms are defined in the applicable award agreements). See the section entitled “The Merger—Interests of MoneyGram’s Executive Officers and Directors in the Merger—Severance Arrangements” below for additional accelerated vesting provisions applicable to certain executive officers.

Non-Employee Director Equity Awards

Our non-employee directors, except for Messrs. Lawry and Rao, also hold outstanding MoneyGram RSUs as of the date of this proxy supplement. Generally, MoneyGram RSUs granted to our non-employee directors are awarded on the date of MoneyGram’s annual meeting and vest and are settled one year from the date of grant, subject to continued service. MoneyGram RSUs granted at the 2016 annual meeting to each of our non-employee directors with a value of $100,000 on the grant date will vest on May 11, 2017, which is anticipated to be prior to the effective time of the merger. Vesting is accelerated if the director dies, becomes disabled, or a “change in control” (as defined by the 2005 Omnibus Plan) occurs.

At the 2017 annual meeting, each of our non-employee directors, other than Messrs. Lawry and Rao, will receive a grant of MoneyGram RSUs with a value equal to $125,000 on the date of grant, which will vest one year from the date of grant, subject to accelerated vesting upon the effective time of the merger as described above.

For 2016, MoneyGram implemented a deferral right whereby directors could elect to defer the settlement date of their RSU awards, and non-employee directors who elected deferred settlement will receive payment with respect to their 2016 and 2017 MoneyGram RSUs following their separation from service on our board of directors. Under the merger agreement, we agreed to use reasonable best efforts to secure the resignation of our directors as of the effective time of the merger.

Compensation and Benefits Arrangements Post-Closing

Under the merger agreement, Alipay has agreed to provide, or cause to be provided to all MoneyGram employees, including executive officers, during the Benefit Continuation Period (as defined below), the following: (i) compensation and benefits that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, to those provided immediately prior to the merger (excluding equity, equity-based and long-term incentive compensation and defined benefit pension plan benefits), and (ii) severance payments and benefits as provided under the MoneyGram International, Inc. Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”) to employees eligible for severance benefits under the Severance Plan who experience a qualifying termination during the Benefit Continuation Period. For purposes of the above employee benefit arrangements, “Benefit Continuation Period” means the period of time from the effective time of the merger until the first anniversary of the effective time of the merger.

With regard to employee welfare and retirement plan benefits, service with MoneyGram or any subsidiary shall be treated as service with Alipay to the same extent recognized under a comparable plan of MoneyGram for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting, entitlement to benefits and vacation entitlement (but not for accrual of benefits under any defined benefit pension or post-retirement welfare plan), satisfaction of any waiting periods, evidence of insurability requirements, or application of pre-existing condition limitations, as applicable. Further, all employees, including executive officers, will be given credit for any amounts paid under any corresponding MoneyGram plan during the same period for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments, and out-of-pocket maximums.

Performance Bonus Plan

For fiscal year 2017, MoneyGram granted annual cash bonus awards under the Performance Bonus Plan to employees, including to each executive officer of MoneyGram, in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, subject to annual incentive targets and performance goals agreed to in connection with the negotiation of the merger. Those performance goals may be adjusted to take into account certain impacts of the proposed merger.

Severance Arrangements

MoneyGram maintains severance benefits for all of its employees, the intended benefits of which are to provide financial protection in the event of a qualifying termination of employment event. Each of the executive

officers, other than Ms. Patsley and Mr. Holmes whose severance provisions are included in their employment agreements and Mr. Stoneham who participates in the Severance Plan, have entered into an individual severance agreement with MoneyGram.

Employment Agreement with Mr. Holmes. Under Mr. Holmes’ employment agreement, upon termination of his employment without “cause” by MoneyGram or by him for “good reason” (both as defined by the employment agreement), Mr. Holmes will receive the following benefits: (i) two times base salary at the time of termination and target bonus, payable in equal installments over a two-year period following termination; (ii) if performance goals are satisfied and bonuses paid, a pro rata portion of any bonus under the Performance Bonus Plan for the year of termination, payable on the date that such bonuses are payable to other employees; (iii) continuation of health and life insurance coverage until the earlier of (1) two years following termination or (2) he becomes eligible for comparable coverage from a subsequent employer; (iv) for equity or equity-based awards subject to performance vesting, a pro rata portion of such awards will remain outstanding and eligible to vest subject to achievement of the applicable performance objectives; (v) for time-based vesting equity awards, vesting of the next installment of such awards upon termination; (vi) vested options remain exercisable until the earlier of the ten-year term or the later to occur of June 30, 2019 and the six-month anniversary of termination; and (vii) all other accrued or vested benefits. Under Mr. Holmes’ employment agreement, he is subject to certain restrictive covenants, including an indefinite confidentiality covenant, a two-year post-termination employee and customer non-solicitation covenant, a two-year post-termination non-competition covenant and an indefinite non-disparagement covenant. Violation of the restrictive covenants contained in Mr. Holmes’ employment agreement entitles MoneyGram to complete relief, including injunctive relief. Further, in the event of a breach of the restrictive covenants, Mr. Holmes could be terminated for cause (provided the breach has a material adverse effect on MoneyGram). The agreements do not prohibit the waiver of a breach of these covenants. No enhanced benefits are provided due to severance in connection with a change in control.

Employment Agreement with Ms. Patsley. Under Ms. Patsley’s employment agreement, upon termination of her employment without “cause” by MoneyGram or by her for “good reason” (both as defined by the employment agreement), Ms. Patsley will receive the following benefits: (i) two times base salary at the time of termination and target bonus, payable in equal installments over a two-year period following termination; (ii) if performance goals are satisfied and bonuses paid, a pro rata portion of any bonus under the Performance Bonus Plan for the year of termination, payable on the date that such bonuses are payable to other employees; (iii) continuation of health and life insurance coverage until the earlier of (1) two years following termination or (2) she becomes eligible for comparable coverage from a subsequent employer; (iv) for equity or equity-based awards subject to performance vesting, such awards will remain outstanding and eligible to vest subject to achievement of the applicable performance objectives; (v) for time-based vesting equity awards, the full amount of such award vests in full upon termination; (vi) vested options remain exercisable until the earlier of the ten-year term or the later to occur of June 30, 2019 and the six-month anniversary of termination; and (vii) all other accrued or vested benefits. Under Ms. Patsley’s employment agreement, she is subject to certain restrictive covenants, including an indefinite confidentiality covenant, a two-year post-termination employee and customer non-solicitation covenant, a two-year post-termination non-competition covenant and an indefinite non-disparagement covenant. Violation of the restrictive covenants contained in Ms. Patsley’s employment agreement entitles MoneyGram to complete relief, including injunctive relief. Further, in the event of a breach of the restrictive covenants, Ms. Patsley could be terminated for cause (provided the breach has a material adverse effect on MoneyGram). The agreements do not prohibit the waiver of a breach of these covenants. No enhanced benefits are provided due to severance in connection with a change in control.

Severance Agreements. In connection with entry into the original merger agreement, the individual severance agreements were amended effective February 22, 2017 to provide the covered officers certain protections in the event of a qualifying termination of employment within the two-year period following the effective time of the merger. Under the previous severance agreements, if the officer was terminated without “cause” (other than by reason of death or disability), the officer would receive (i) cash severance in an amount equal to one year of the officer’s annual base salary, and (ii) provided applicable performance goals were met, a

pro rata portion of the officer’s annual incentive bonus for the year in which the termination occurs (not to exceed the officer’s annual target incentive opportunity), payable in a lump sum when such cash bonuses were regularly paid. The amended agreements provide the above benefits and full vesting of any outstanding restricted stock unit awards or performance cash awards (including MoneyGram RSUs, as converted into converted awards, and performance cash awards) held by the executive on the date of termination if the officer is terminated without “cause” (other than by reason of death or disability) or if the officer terminates for “good reason” (as such terms are defined by the severance agreement) within the 24-month period commencing on and immediately following the effective time of the merger. The covered officers are also subject to certain restrictive covenants set forth in employee trade secret, confidential information and post-employment restriction agreements. Under these agreements, covered officers are subject to certain restrictive covenants, including an indefinite confidentiality covenant, a one-year post-termination employee and customer non-solicitation covenant, a one-year post-termination non-competition covenant and an indefinite non-disparagement covenant. Violation of the restrictive covenants contained in the employee trade secret, confidential information and post-employment restriction agreements entitles MoneyGram to complete relief, including injunctive relief. Further, in the event of a breach of the restrictive covenants, covered officers could be subject to certain forfeiture and repayment provisions relating to certain awards provided for and in consideration of the agreements. The agreements do not prohibit the waiver of a breach of these covenants.

Severance Plan. Mr. Stoneham is a participant in the Severance Plan. Under the Severance Plan, an employee who is involuntarily terminated as part of a reduction in force, reorganization, job elimination or job relocation of more than 50 miles is entitled to severance benefits. Severance benefits will be equal to one week of salary for each year of service, subject to the minimum and maximum weeks based of classification of employment. As of February 27, 2017, Mr. Stoneham is entitled to 16 weeks of salary. Severance will be paid in a lump sum upon expiration of the rescission or revocation period specified in the officer’s separation and release agreement. If the employee participates in an annual bonus plan for a fiscal year and is terminated on or after October 1 of that fiscal year but prior to the time bonuses are paid, the employee will be eligible to receive the bonus that he or she would have earned for that fiscal year (if any) had he or she remained in employment until the date of payment, except that such bonus shall be prorated based upon the number of days the employee was employed during the fiscal year if employed for less than the full fiscal year. Any such bonus is payable at the time annual bonuses are paid to the other participants in such plan.

Retention Awards

Mr. Stoneham is also entitled to a retention award equal to 12 weeks’ base salary with 50% of such award payable one month after the effective time of the merger and 50% payable six months after the effective time of the merger, subject to his continued employment. However, 100% of the award is payable upon his termination without “cause” or for “good reason” (both terms defined consistent with the definitions used for purposes of MoneyGram RSUs).

Information for Advisory Vote on Merger-Related Compensation for Our Named Executive Officers

The information set forth below is intended to comply with Item 402(t) of Regulation S-K regarding compensation that is based on or otherwise relates to the merger that our named executive officers could receive in connection with the merger. The information being reported with respect to our named executive officers describes the payments and benefits that would be payable under Ms. Patsley’s and Mr. Holmes’s employment agreements, our other named executive officers’ individual severance agreements and the existing award agreements governing MoneyGram RSUs, MoneyGram Options and performance cash awards, each as described above. The amounts in the table below were calculated using the following assumptions: (i) the consummation of the merger occurred on the record date; (ii) the applicable price per share of Common Stock is $18.00, which is equal to the amended per share merger consideration; (iii) the merger would constitute a change of control for purposes of Ms. Patsley’s and Mr. Holmes’s employment agreements, our other named executive officers’ individual severance agreements and the applicable award agreements; (iv) unless otherwise stated below, the

employment of each named executive officer has been terminated by MoneyGram without cause or by each executive for good reason (each, a “qualifying termination”) immediately following the consummation of the merger; (v) each named executive officer has properly executed a release of claims against us and each of Alipay and its affiliates and complied with any restrictive covenants applicable to such named executive officer; and (vi) certain other assumptions as specified in the footnotes to the table below have been made. Values shown below do not take into account any increase in compensation that may occur following the date of this filing or following the merger. Some of the assumptions used in the table below are based upon information not currently available and, as a result, the actual amounts to be received by our named executive officers may differ from the amounts set forth below. Except for payments made in connection with MoneyGram Options, which are “single trigger” payments, all payments quantified in the table below are “double trigger” payments.

The amounts in this column reflect the aggregate value of cash severance payments that would become payable to Ms. Patsley and Mr. Holmes under their respective employment agreements and to our other named executive officers under their individual severance agreements. Payments under Ms. Patsley’s and Mr. Holmes’s respective employment agreements consist of (a) an amount equal to two times the sum of their (i) base salary at the time of termination and (ii) target bonus opportunity, payable in equal installments over the two-year period following termination of employment, and (b) a prorated annual incentive bonus (based on the period between the beginning of the applicable performance period and the date of termination of such named executive officer’s employment, which is assumed to be the record date) in an amount determined based on actual performance with respect to the year in which the termination of employment occurs, payable in a lump sum on the date on which such cash bonuses are normally paid (calculated assuming target performance is attained). With respect to Messrs. Angelilli, Henry, Ohser and Piano, their individual severance agreements provide for (a) cash severance payments in an amount equal to 12 months of such named executive officer’s annual base salary then in effect, payable in equal monthly installments, and (b) a prorated annual incentive bonus (based on the period between the beginning of the applicable performance period and the date of termination of such named executive officer’s employment, which is assumed to be the record date) in an amount determined based on actual performance with respect to the year in which the termination of employment occurs but not to exceed the executive’s annual target incentive opportunity, payable in a lump sum on the date on which such cash bonuses are normally paid (calculated assuming target performance is attained). In addition, the amounts in this column reflect accelerated vesting of outstanding performance cash awards at 100% of the applicable target level, for 2017 awards, and of all remaining unvested installment payments for 2016 performance cash awards, upon a qualifying termination under the severance agreements or, for Ms. Patsley and Mr. Holmes, under the applicable award agreements. The aggregate payments included in this column are comprised of the following:

Peter E. Ohser	$	400,000	$	74,411	$	455,400

Each of the named executive officers is subject to certain trade secret, confidentiality and post-employment restriction provisions, pursuant to which the named executive officers have agreed to confidentiality and

non-disparagement obligations that extend indefinitely. In addition, each named executive officer has agreed to non-competition provisions with respect to certain competing businesses and non-solicitation restrictions with respect to employees and customer relationships for defined periods of time. See the section entitled “The Merger—Interests of MoneyGram’s Executive Officers and Directors in the Merger—Severance Arrangements” for more information regarding such provisions.

The amounts in this column reflect (i) the number of unvested time-based MoneyGram RSUs that each of our named executive officers holds as of the record date multiplied by the merger consideration, and (ii) the number of unvested performance-based MoneyGram RSUs that each of our named executive officers holds as of the record date multiplied by the merger consideration, in each case, which such unvested equity awards (as converted into converted awards, if applicable, as of the effective time of the merger) would be accelerated in accordance with the severance agreements or, for Ms. Patsley and Mr. Holmes, under the applicable award agreements upon a qualifying termination. For performance-based MoneyGram RSUs granted in 2017, the amount included is reflected at 100% of the applicable target level. The MoneyGram RSUs reported under this column consist of the grants made to our named executive officers on each of February 25, 2015, February 23, 2016 and February 22, 2017, that each of our named executive officers holds as of the date hereof that are anticipated to become converted awards at the effective time of the merger as described above.

In addition, the amounts reported in this column include, for each MoneyGram Option held by our named executive officers as of the record date, an amount equal to the sum of the product, of (x) the excess, if any of the amended per share merger consideration ($18.00) over the applicable exercise price of such MoneyGram Option and (y) the number (determined without reference to vesting requirements or other limitations on exercisability) of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such MoneyGram Option. The payments with respect to the MoneyGram Options are the only “single trigger” payments included in this table; however, all of the MoneyGram Options held by our named executive officers with an exercise price of less than $18.00 are currently fully vested and will be cashed out in connection with the closing of the merger.

The MoneyGram Options and MoneyGram RSUs reported in this column reflect the following amounts of such awards held by each of our named executive officers as of the record date:


Name	Stock Options		Time-Based RSUs		Performance-Based RSUs

Interests of THL and Goldman Sachs

MoneyGram, THL and affiliates of Goldman Sachs (together, the “Investors”) entered into an amended and restated purchase agreement, dated as of March 17, 2008 (the “Purchase Agreement”), in which the Investors were provided with certain rights with respect to representation on our board of directors and committees of our board of directors. Under the Purchase Agreement, THL may designate two to four directors to our board of directors who each have equal votes and who are to have such aggregate number of votes equal to the number of directors as is proportionate to the Investors’ common stock ownership (on an as-converted basis). Therefore, each director designated by THL has multiple votes and each other director has one vote. As of the record date, the designated representatives of THL on our board of directors are Seth W. Lawry and Ganesh B. Rao, who collectively hold a majority of the voting power of our board of directors. The Purchase Agreement also provides for the general attendance by two representatives of the Goldman Sachs to observe at meetings of our board of directors.

THL owns approximately 44.0% of the outstanding Common Stock and, by entering into a voting and support agreement, has agreed to vote all of its shares of Common Stock that it owns in favor of the approval and adoption of the merger agreement. However, in the event our board of directors changes its recommendation with respect to the merger (other than in connection with a third party acquisition proposal) in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, the number of each stockholder’s shares of Common Stock subject to the voting and support agreement shall be reduced, pro rata, such that the aggregate amount of Common Stock subject to all of the voting and support agreements, taken together, equals 35% of the outstanding Common Stock of MoneyGram as of the record date for the special meeting called to approve and adopt the merger agreement. See the section entitled “The Voting and Support Agreements” beginning on page 103 of the definitive proxy statement. If the merger is consummated, THL would receive $427,281,444 in merger consideration for its 23,737,858 shares of Common Stock.

In connection with the execution of the merger agreement, Goldman Sachs, as the holder of all of the Series D Preferred Stock delivered an irrevocable written consent to Alipay to the merger and the treatment of the Series D Preferred Stock in the merger agreement. Goldman Sachs owns 71,281.9038 shares, or 100%, of Series D Preferred Stock, which are convertible in 8,910,234 shares of Common Stock. Upon completion of the merger, Goldman Sachs would receive $160,384,212 in merger consideration for its 71,281.9038 shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

MoneyGram Board of Directors and Management Following the Merger

Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, our board of directors will be replaced by the board of directors of Merger Sub, or such other individuals that Alipay may designate prior to the effective time of the merger to serve as directors of the surviving corporation, and will not hold any directorships with Merger Sub or Alipay.

Following the merger, the board of directors designated by Alipay will have the authority to retain or replace the existing executive officers of MoneyGram. It is expected that Mr. Holmes will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer of MoneyGram, and that MoneyGram will retain its management team.

Certain Considerations Related to the Euronet Proposal

While it is expected that Mr. Holmes will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer of MoneyGram, and that MoneyGram will retain its management team, upon completion of the merger with Alipay, in the event the Euronet proposal would have been accepted by our board of directors and a merger with Euronet completed, Euronet had not publicly disclosed any intention to retain MoneyGram’s management team. In particular, Euronet had publicly disclosed a desire to achieve synergies by relying on $60 million in annual cost synergies available to the combined company, suggesting a desire for significant headcount reductions. Please see

“Background of the Merger” for a discussion of certain provisions in the proposed merger agreement with Euronet that MoneyGram with the approval of our board of directors negotiated for in order to promote retention of MoneyGram employees during the extended period between signing and closing and to alleviate concerns about potential headcount reductions.

Indemnification and Insurance

The merger agreement provides that after the effective time of the merger, Alipay will cause the surviving corporation to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent provided in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of MoneyGram in effect on the date of the merger agreement and permitted by applicable law, all past and present directors and officers of MoneyGram or any of its subsidiaries, referred to collectively as, the “Indemnified Parties,” with respect to acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the effective time of the merger. In addition, for six years after the effective time of the merger, Alipay will not permit any amendments to the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of MoneyGram or its subsidiaries that would adversely affect any right of a person who was or is a director or officer of MoneyGram or its subsidiaries prior to the effective time of the merger with respect elimination of liability of directors, indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses under MoneyGram’s and its subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents in effect as of the date of the merger agreement.

For a period of six years after the effective time of the merger, Alipay is also required to maintain or cause the surviving company to maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (from MoneyGram’s current insurance carrier or an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating, as of the closing date of the merger, as MoneyGram’s current insurance carrier) that provides coverage for acts or omissions occurring prior to the effective time of the merger with terms and conditions which are, in the aggregate, not less advantageous to the Indemnified Persons than the terms and conditions of the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of the MoneyGram. However, at Alipay’s option, in lieu of the foregoing insurance coverage, Alipay or, with Alipay’s consent, MoneyGram may at or prior to the effective time of the merger substitute the insurance coverage for a single premium tail coverage with respect to such insurance that provides coverage for a period of six years after the effective time of the merger, with terms and conditions which are, in the aggregate, not less advantageous to such Indemnified Parties than the terms and conditions of the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of MoneyGram. However, Alipay will not be required to expend, in the aggregate, an amount in excess of 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by MoneyGram for the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of MoneyGram. If Alipay is unable to maintain or obtain the required insurance for an amount equal to or less than such amount, Alipay is required to obtain as much comparable insurance as may be available for such amount.

THE MERGER

1.1. The Merger.

The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger is duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or at such later time on the Closing Date as may be agreed by Parent and the Company and specified in the Certificate of Merger in accordance with the DGCL (such time as the Merger becomes effective is referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

ARTICLE II

CONSIDERATION

2.1. Effect on Common Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”):

(a) any Shares then held by any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company shall be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation (the “Converted Shares”);

(b) any Shares then held by the Company, Parent, Merger Sub or any entity of which Merger Sub is a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary shall be cancelled and retired and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor (the “Cancelled Shares”); and

(c) each share of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares, Converted Shares or Cancelled Shares) shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $13.25 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”).

2.2. Effect on Preferred Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of Series D Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be cancelled and each holder of shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration such holder would have received had such holder, immediately prior to the Effective Time, converted all of its shares of Series D Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock (without regard to any limitations contained in the certificate of designation with respect to such Series D Preferred Stock).

2.3. Merger Sub Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any Shares, each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one share of common stock of the Surviving Company.

2.4. Treatment of Company Options and Company RSUs.

(a) At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Common Stock (a “Company Option”) granted pursuant to the Company’s 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan (as amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Company Stock Plan”), whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Parent and the holder of such Company Option, shall automatically be terminated at the Effective Time and converted into the right of the holder thereof to receive, in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations with respect to any such Company Option, as of the Effective Time, an amount in cash (subject to any applicable withholding Taxes) equal to the product of (x) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the applicable exercise price of such Company Option and (y) the number (determined

A-4

without reference to vesting requirements or other limitations on exercisability) of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Company Option (the “Option Consideration”). Any Company Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and has an exercise price that is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration shall expire upon the Effective Time without being converted into the right to receive any consideration in respect thereof.

(b) At the Effective Time, each restricted stock unit representing the right to receive one share of Common Stock, whether subject to performance-based vesting requirements or time-based vesting requirements (each, a “Company RSU”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Parent and the holder of such Company RSU, automatically be converted into a cash-settled long-term incentive award (a “Converted Award”), representing a right to receive an amount of cash, without interest, equal to the per share Merger Consideration, on the same vesting terms and conditions applicable to such Company RSU immediately before the Effective Time. On the date, and to the extent, that the Converted Award becomes vested, such vested Converted Award shall be paid, subject to any applicable withholding taxes, as soon as practicable thereafter (but in any event not later than the second regular payroll date thereafter). The Company shall take all actions necessary to provide for the foregoing actions.

2.5. Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any shares of Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and as to which the holders thereof have not voted in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and have properly demanded appraisal in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and have not effectively withdrawn such demand (collectively, “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1, and such holders shall be entitled only to such rights and payments as are granted by Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if any such holder shall effectively waive, withdraw or lose such holder’s rights under Section 262 of the DGCL, each of such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.1, without interest and after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided herein, and such holder thereof shall cease to have any other rights with respect thereto. At the Effective Time, any holder of Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the rights provided in Section 262 of the DGCL and as provided in the previous sentence.

(b) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any written notices received by the Company with respect to any intent to demand, or written demands for, appraisal with respect to any shares of Common Stock, attempts to withdraw such notices or demands and any other instruments or notices served pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or other applicable Law relating to stockholders’ appraisal rights and (ii) the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to the exercise of appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL or other applicable Law relating to stockholders’ appraisal rights. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent or as otherwise required by an order of a Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction, make any payment or other commitment with respect to any such demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

2.6. Paying Agent.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company with the Company’s transfer agent or a bank or trust company that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company to act as paying agent (the “Paying Agent”). At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent or one of its Subsidiaries shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Shares (other than Dissenting Shares, Converted Shares or Cancelled Shares) and the Series D Preferred Stock cash in U.S. dollars sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration with respect to all Shares (other than Dissenting Shares, Converted Shares or Cancelled Shares) and Series D Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. With respect to any Dissenting Shares, Parent shall only be required to deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration payable in respect of such Dissenting Shares if the holder thereof fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses its right to dissent under the DGCL. The funds held by the Paying Agent shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent; provided, however, to the extent such funds are not sufficient to make the payments provided in this Article II, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the lost portion of such fund so as to ensure that it is maintained at a level sufficient to make such payments.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each holder of record of Shares (other than Dissenting Shares, Converted Shares or Cancelled Shares) or Series D Preferred Stock that immediately prior to the Effective Time were evidenced by certificates (the “Certificates”): (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Paying Agent) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon proper surrender of a Certificate (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.6(g)) for exchange and cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with a letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration in respect of the Shares or Series D Preferred Stock formerly represented by such Certificate and such Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates on the Merger Consideration payable upon the surrender of the Certificates.

(c) Any holder of record of Shares (other than Dissenting Shares, Converted Shares or Cancelled Shares) or Series D Preferred Stock that immediately prior to the Effective Time were not evidenced by certificates (the “Book Entry Shares”) shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or, unless reasonably requested by the Paying Agent, an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent in order to receive the aggregate Merger Consideration with respect to such Book Entry Shares, and as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Paying Agent shall pay and deliver to each holder of Book Entry Shares the aggregate Merger Consideration in respect of such Book Entry Shares, and such Book Entry Shares shall then be canceled. No interest will be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of Book Entry Shares on the Merger Consideration payable in respect of such Book Entry Shares.

A-6

(d) If the payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor or the registered holder of Book Entry Shares, it shall be a condition of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer or such Book Entry Shares shall be properly transferred, and that the person requesting such payment shall pay to the Paying Agent in advance any applicable stock transfer or other Taxes or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Taxes have been paid or are not payable.

(e) At and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Company of the Shares and of the Series D Preferred Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Paying Agent, they shall be (subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Article II) cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Shares and the holder of shares of Series D Preferred Stock, in each case outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Shares and Series D Preferred Stock except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law.

(f) Any portion of the funds deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to Section 2.6(a) (including any interest or other proceeds of any investment thereon) that remains unclaimed by the stockholders of the Company twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be paid, at the request of Parent, to Parent or as directed by Parent. Any stockholders of the Company who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Corporation for payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Common Stock held by such stockholder at the Effective Time as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, none of Parent, the Company, the Paying Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of Common Stock for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(g) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Paying Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as Parent or the Paying Agent may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

A-7

2.7. Withholding. Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and the Paying Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold or cause to be deducted and withheld from any payment otherwise payable pursuant to the Merger such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to such payment under all applicable Tax laws. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the recipient of the payment in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.8. Certain Adjustments. Without limiting the obligations of the Company under this Agreement (including Section 5.1), if between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the number of Shares or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any issued and outstanding securities of the Company (including the Series D Preferred Stock) are changed into a different number or a different class by reason of any reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, or other similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration and any other dependent items, as applicable, shall be appropriately and proportionately adjusted and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Merger Consideration or other dependent item, as applicable.

Parent, Merger Sub and the Company will cooperate with each other in the preparation of the Proxy Statement (including the preliminary Proxy Statement). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts, after consultation with Parent, to resolve all SEC comments with respect to the preliminary Proxy Statement as promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof and to have the preliminary Proxy Statement cleared by the staff of the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable. Each of Parent and Merger Sub agrees to promptly advise the Company if at any time prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement is or becomes false, incomplete or misleading in any material respect and to provide the Company with the information needed to correct such inaccuracy or omission. The Company agrees to advise Parent if at any time prior to the Company Stockholders Meeting any information provided by it in the Proxy Statement is or becomes false, incomplete or misleading in any material respect and to supplement the Proxy Statement with the information needed to correct such inaccuracy or omission. The Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable notify Parent and Merger Sub of the receipt of any comments from the SEC with respect to the preliminary Proxy Statement and of any request by

A-37

the SEC for any amendment to the Proxy Statement or for additional information and shall promptly provide Parent with copies of all such comments and correspondence. Prior to filing or mailing the definitive Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC (or the staff of the SEC) with respect thereto, the Company shall provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and to comment on such document or response and shall include any such comments reasonably proposed by Parent. Parent and Merger Sub shall furnish to the Company all information concerning themselves, Guarantor, their respective Subsidiaries, directors, officers and stockholders and such other matters as may be necessary to comply with applicable Law in connection with the preparation of the Proxy Statement. The Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall each make any filings with respect to the Merger required to be made by such party under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(b) The Company shall duly take all lawful action to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders for the purpose of obtaining the Company Stockholder Approval (the “Company Stockholders Meeting”), and to cause the definitive Proxy Statement to be filed with the SEC and mailed to the stockholders of the Company as of the record date for the Company Stockholders Meeting, in each case as promptly as practicable following the date the SEC confirms it has no further comments to the preliminary Proxy Statement. Except to the extent there has been a Change of Recommendation in accordance with and subject to Section 5.4, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of approval of the Merger and secure any other approval of stockholders of the Company that is required by applicable Law in connection with the Merger; provided, however, that (A) the Company may change the date of, postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting (but not to a date later than the End Date) to the extent that it has reasonably determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel and Parent (and its outside counsel), that such postponement or adjournment is necessary to ensure that any required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement is provided to the Company’s stockholders within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Stockholders Meeting; and (B) the Company may (and if Parent so requests, the Company shall on up to two occasions up to 10 Business Days each), change the date of, postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholders Meeting (but not to a date later than the Business Day prior to the End Date and provided that the Company shall not be required to set a new record date) if as of the time for which the Company Stockholders Meeting is scheduled (1) there are insufficient shares of Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Stockholders Meeting or (2) at such time the Company has not received proxies sufficient to allow the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval at the Company Stockholders Meeting. The Company shall keep Parent updated with respect to proxy solicitation results as reasonably requested by Parent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VII, the obligation of the Company to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholders Meeting and mail the definitive Proxy Statement (and any amendment or supplement that may be required by Law) to the Company’s stockholders shall not be affected by a Change of Recommendation. In addition to the foregoing, the Company shall not submit to the vote of its stockholders any Company Acquisition Proposal other than the Merger prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VII.

A-38

5.4. No Solicitation.

(a) Until the Effective Time or, if earlier, the date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VII, the Company shall not, and the Company shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its and its Subsidiaries’ respective directors, officers, employees and Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) initiate, solicit, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of providing information) the submission of any inquiries, proposals or offers that constitute or would reasonably be expected to lead to any Company Acquisition Proposal, (ii) have any discussions or negotiations with or provide any confidential information or data to any person relating to a Company Acquisition Proposal, or engage in any negotiations concerning a Company Acquisition Proposal, (iii) withdraw, change, amend, modify or qualify, or otherwise propose publicly to withdraw, change, amend, modify or qualify, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Recommendation or approve or recommend, or propose publicly to approve or recommend, any Company Acquisition Proposal (any act described in this clause (iii), a “Change of Recommendation”), or (iv) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, or execute or enter into, any letter of intent or other document or Contract related to any Company Acquisition Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement as provided in this Section 5.4(b)) or enter into any letter of intent or other document or Contract requiring the Company to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or breach its obligations hereunder (any such letter of intent or other document or Contract, an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”). The Company will, and will cause its Subsidiaries and its and its Subsidiaries’ directors, officers, employees and Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any discussions or negotiations conducted with any persons other than Parent with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal, including immediately revoking or withdrawing access of any person other than Parent and its directors, officers, employees and Representatives to any data room (virtual or actual) containing any non-public information with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries previously furnished with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall not terminate, waive, amend or modify any provision of any standstill or confidentiality agreement to which the Company is a party, in each case, with respect to the submission of any Company Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 5.4(a), prior to the time the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, if the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their Representatives receives an unsolicited bona fide written Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of this Section 5.4 and the Company Board concludes in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors) that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal or could reasonably be expected to result in a Company Superior Proposal, the Company may, and may permit its Subsidiaries and its and their directors, officers, employees and Representatives, to (i) enter into and maintain discussions or negotiations with the person making such Company Acquisition Proposal and (ii) furnish non-public information and afford access to the business, employees, officers, Contracts, properties, assets, books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries to the person making such Company Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that (A) prior to providing (or causing to be provided) such information or affording such access to, or entering into or maintaining such discussions or negotiations with, such person, the Company shall have entered into an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement with such person and (B) the Company will provide to Parent any non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that was not previously provided or made available to Parent as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in any event within one (1) day) after providing (or causing to be provided) any such information to such person making such Company Acquisition Proposal.

A-39

(c) The Company shall notify Parent orally and in writing promptly (but in any event within two (2) days) (i) after receipt of any Company Acquisition Proposal (or any proposal or offer that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal), which notice shall include the identity of the person making such proposal or offer, a summary of the material terms of all such proposals or offers and copies of drafts of proposed agreements, term sheets or letters of intent related thereto, (ii) of any change to the financial or other material terms and conditions of any Company Acquisition Proposal and the Company shall otherwise keep Parent reasonably informed of the status of any such Company Acquisition Proposal (including by providing copies of all proposals, offers and drafts of proposed agreements related thereto that have not already been provided pursuant to clause (i) above) and (iii) after receipt of any request for non-public information relating to it or any of its Subsidiaries or for access to its or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties, books or records by any person in connection with a Company Acquisition Proposal (or any proposal or offer that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Company Acquisition Proposal). Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, after the date of this Agreement, enter into any confidentiality or similar agreement that would prohibit it from providing such information to Parent.

(d) Prior to the time the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company Board may terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1(h) in order to enter into a binding definitive agreement to effect a transaction constituting a Company Superior Proposal (and make a Change of Recommendation with respect thereto), if and only if:

(i) the Company receives a Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 5.4(a) and the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors) that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Company Superior Proposal;

(ii) the Company provides Parent prior written notice of the Company’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(h) (a “Superior Proposal Notice”), which notice shall identify the person making such Company Superior Proposal and include the material terms and conditions of such Company Superior Proposal, including copies of any written proposals or offers and any proposed agreements related thereto;

(iii) for at least four (4) Business Days after Parent’s receipt of such Superior Proposal Notice (such minimum period, the “Notice Period”), the Company has negotiated, and has caused its financial and legal advisors (and other Representatives) to negotiate, with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Company Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Company Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that any revision to the financial terms or any other material term

A-40

of such Company Superior Proposal shall require a new Superior Proposal Notice and the Company shall be required to comply again with the provisions of this Section 5.4(d) with respect to such new notice, except that such Notice Period shall be two (2) Business Day (rather than four (4) Business Days)); and

(iv) at the end of the period (or periods) referred to in clause (iii) above, the Company Board has concluded in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors) that such Company Acquisition Proposal still constitutes a Company Superior Proposal after giving effect to all of the adjustments which may be offered by Parent pursuant to clause (iii) above and that a failure to terminate this Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Company Superior Proposal would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

(e) Other than in connection with a Company Acquisition Proposal (which shall be subject to Section 5.4(d) and shall not be subject to this Section 5.4(e)), prior to the time the Company Stockholder Approval is obtained, the Company Board may make a Change of Recommendation if and only if (i) prior to taking such action, the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors, that failure to take such action would inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law; (ii) the Company provides Parent prior written notice of the Company’s intention to make a Change of Recommendation (a “Change of Recommendation Notice”), which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the reasons for such Change of Recommendation; (iii) for at least three (4) Business Days after Parent’s receipt of a Change of Recommendation Notice, the Company has negotiated, and has caused its financial and legal advisors (and other Representatives) to negotiate, with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement in such a manner that the failure to make a Change of Recommendation would no longer be reasonably likely to be a violation of the Company Board’s fiduciary duties under applicable Law; and (iv) at the end of the period referred to in clause (iii) above, the Company Board has concluded in good faith (after consultation with the Company’s outside legal and financial advisors) that failure to make a Change of Recommendation would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law after giving effect to all of the adjustments which may be offered by Parent pursuant to clause (iii) above.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Company or the Company Board from (i) taking and disclosing a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) under the Exchange Act or complying with the provisions of Rule 14d-9 Item promulgated under the Exchange Act with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal (it being agreed that the issuance by the Company or the Company Board of a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act shall not in and of itself constitute a Change of Recommendation) or (ii) making any disclosure to the Company’s stockholders if the Company Board determines in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal advisors) that the failure to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law (including any legally required disclosure to stockholders with regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or a Company Acquisition Proposal)(it being agreed that this clause (ii) shall in no way eliminate or modify the effect that

A-41

any such disclosure would otherwise have under this Agreement); provided, that in no event shall the Company or the Company Board make a Change of Recommendation except as provided in Section 5.4(e) and any public disclosure by the Company or the Company Board relating to any determination or other action by the Company Board with respect to any Company Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a Change of Recommendation unless the Company Board expressly and concurrently reaffirms the Company Recommendation.

5.5. Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use their reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to (i) consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to cause the conditions set forth in Article VI to be satisfied as promptly as practicable and, in any event, on or before the End Date, (ii) prepare as promptly as practicable (and file, submit or effect, as applicable) all necessary applications, notices, petitions, filings, ruling requests and other documents in order to obtain (and to cooperate with the other parties to obtain) any Approval from any Governmental Entity which is required to be obtained by Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including as may be required under any Money Transmitter Requirements, (iii) comply promptly with all Legal Requirements which may be imposed on such party with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iv) defend all lawsuits or other legal, regulatory, administrative or other proceedings to which it (or with respect to the Company, its Subsidiaries is) a party challenging or affecting this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case until the issuance of a final, non-appealable order with respect to each such lawsuit or other proceeding, (v) seek to have lifted or rescinded any injunction or restraining order which may adversely affect the ability of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case until the issuance of a final, non-appealable order with respect thereto and (vi) seek to resolve any objection or assertion by any Governmental Entity challenging this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub agree to, as promptly as practicable after the date hereof: (A) make (or cause to be made) an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act, which filing shall in any event be made within twenty (20) Business Days following the date hereof, (B) submit to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) a draft of a joint voluntary notice of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (the “CFIUS Notice”), which submission shall in any event be made within twenty (20) Business Days following the date hereof, (C) subject to the final sentence of this Section 5.5(a), make such filings and submissions as set forth on Section 5.5(a)(C) of the Company Disclosure Schedules (and such other filings and submissions not set forth on Section 5.5(a)(C) of the Company Disclosure Schedules) in each case to the extent required by applicable Money Transmitter Requirements with respect to obtaining Approvals related to Money Transmitter Licenses of the Company or its Subsidiaries (the “Money Transfer Change of Control Filings”), and (D) make such filings contemplated by applicable foreign competition Laws as set forth on Section 5.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedules. With respect to the draft CFIUS Notice, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to provide any requested supplemental information and other related information pursuant to Section 721 of Title VII of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended (50 U.S.C. § 4501 et seq.) (the “Defense Production Act”)

A-42

as promptly as practicable, and to submit a final CFIUS Notice and other related information pursuant to the Defense Production Act as promptly as practicable after receiving any comments to the draft CFIUS Notice. With respect to the Money Transfer Change of Control Filings, each of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts and cooperate with the other parties (a) in timely making inquiries with Governmental Entities regarding the Money Transfer Change of Control Filings, (b) in determining if any Money Transfer Change of Control Filings are not required by Governmental Entities, and (c) in timely making all Money Transfer Change of Control Filings (except with respect to such jurisdictions where the parties agree that a Money Transfer Change of Control Filing is not required).

(b) Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, including those set forth elsewhere in this Section 5.5, each of the Company, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall (i) cooperate with the other parties hereto and use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to obtain as promptly as practicable all Approvals of all third parties and Governmental Entities which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to all Money Transfer Change of Control Filings required in accordance with Section 5.5(a)), (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, promptly inform the other party or parties of any substantive communication (oral and written) received by such party from, or given by such party to, any Governmental Entity with respect to any such filing or Approval or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including keeping the other parties apprised, on a current basis of the status of such filing or Approval, including the Money Transfer Change of Control Filings), and of any substantive communication received or given in connection with any legal proceeding by a private party regarding the Merger, (iii) to consult with the other party or parties (subject to applicable Legal Requirements relating to the exchange of information) in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party relating to proceedings with respect to any such Approvals or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (v) to use reasonable best efforts to furnish to the other party or parties and, upon request, to any Governmental Entities such information and assistance as may be reasonably requested in connection with the foregoing, including by responding promptly to and using reasonable best efforts to comply fully with any request for additional information or documents under any applicable Law; (v) not independently participate in any meeting (including substantive telephonic meetings) with any Governmental Entity in respect of any Approval without giving the other party or parties sufficient prior notice of the meeting and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, the opportunity to attend and/or participate in such meeting (including substantive telephonic meetings) and (vi) to use reasonable best efforts to comply with the terms and conditions of all such Approvals of all such third parties and Governmental Entities. Parent and the Company shall promptly advise each other upon receiving any communication from any Governmental Entity whose consent, non-objection or approval is required for consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement which causes such party to believe that there is a reasonable likelihood that any consent, non-objection or approval will not be obtained or that the receipt of any such approval will be materially delayed or conditioned. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.5 to the contrary, materials provided by or on behalf of Parent to the Company or its counsel or the Company to Parent or its counsel may be redacted to the extent necessary (a) to remove references concerning Parent’s or the Company’s valuation analyses with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries, (b) as necessary to comply with Contracts in effect on the date hereof or (c) to removal personal, proprietary and other confidential business information.

A-43

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall require (or be deemed to require) Parent or any of its affiliates to agree to or take (nor shall the Company or its Subsidiaries, without Parent’s prior written consent, take or agree to take) any action with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 5.5 that would have or reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition or result of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole or (B) the financial condition or result of operations of Ant Small and Micro Financial Services Group Co. Ltd and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (but assuming for purposes of this clause (B) that the business and operations of Ant Small and Micro Financial Services Group Co. Ltd and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, were of the same size and magnitude as the business and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) (any such arrangements, conditions or restrictions set forth in clauses (A) or (B), a “Burdensome Condition”). Furthermore, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall require (or be deemed to require) Parent or any of its affiliates to sell, to hold separate or otherwise dispose of, any assets or business of Parent or its affiliates, including those of the Company and its Subsidiaries following the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent and its affiliates and the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required (and without the prior consent of Parent, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not), take any action with respect to any order or any applicable Law or in order to obtain any Approval which is not conditioned upon the consummation of the Merger. Prior to Parent being entitled to invoke a Burdensome Condition, the parties and their respective Representatives shall meet and confer in good faith in order to (x) exchange and review their respective views and positions as to such Burdensome Condition and (y) discuss and present to, and engage with, the applicable Governmental Entity regarding any potential approaches or workarounds that would avoid such Burdensome Condition or mitigate its impact so it is no longer a Burdensome Condition.

(d) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 5.5 but subject in all respects to Section 5.5(c), each party hereto shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any consents or approvals from any persons (other than Governmental Entities) that are necessary or advisable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that the parties hereto shall fail to obtain any such third party consent, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts, and shall take such actions as are reasonably requested by Parent, to minimize any adverse effect upon the Company and its Subsidiaries resulting, or which would reasonably be expected to result, after the Effective Time, from the failure to obtain such consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with obtaining any such approval or consent from any persons (other than Governmental Entities) with respect to any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, (i) none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to, or, without the prior written consent of Parent, shall, pay or commit to pay to such person whose approval or consent is being solicited any cash or other consideration, make any commitment or incur any liability or other obligation due to such person and (ii) none of Parent, Merger Sub or any of their affiliates shall be required to pay or commit to pay to such person whose approval or consent is being solicited any cash or other consideration, make any commitment or incur any liability or other obligation.

A-44

5.6. Employees; Employee Benefit Plans.

(a) During the period from the Effective Time until the first anniversary thereof, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to provide to the Company Employees who are employees of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company at the Effective Time (such Company Employees, “Continuing Employees”), compensation and benefits that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, to those provided to the Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing (excluding equity, equity-based and long-term incentive compensation and excluding defined benefit pension plan benefits), while such Continuing Employees remain employed by the Company or a Subsidiary. During the period from the Effective Time until the first anniversary thereof, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to provide the severance payments and benefits set forth in the MoneyGram International, Inc. Severance Plan, as it is in effect as of the signing of this Agreement (the “Severance Plan”) for Continuing Employees who are terminated during such period.

(b) With respect to each applicable employee welfare and retirement benefit plan sponsored or maintained by Parent or the Surviving Company (the “Parent Plans”), if any, for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting, entitlement to benefits and vacation entitlement (but not for accrual of benefits under any defined benefit pension plan or post-retirement welfare benefit plan), service with the Company or any Subsidiary (or any predecessor entity thereto) shall be treated as service with Parent to the same extent recognized by the Company under an comparable Plan; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. Such service also shall apply for purposes of satisfying any waiting periods, evidence of insurability requirements, or the application of any pre-existing condition limitations with respect to any Parent Plan. Each Parent Plan shall waive pre-existing condition limitations and eligibility waiting periods to the same extent waived under the applicable Plan. The Continuing Employees shall be given credit for amounts paid under a corresponding Plan of the Company or any Subsidiary during the same period for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Parent Plan during the applicable plan year.

(c) The Company and Parent acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 5.6 are for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any person (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any current or former employees, officers or directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or on or after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries), other than the parties hereto, any legal or equitable or other rights or remedies with respect to matters provided for in this Section 5.6. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring Parent or the Surviving Company or any of its affiliates to provide employment, or to guarantee or any continued compensation, employee benefits or other rights, to any Company Employee, or to continue any specific Plan. Nothing contained herein, whether express or implied, shall be construed as an amendment or modification of any employee benefit plan, program, arrangement or agreement.

A-45

5.7. Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the fullest extent provided in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company as in effect on the date of this Agreement and permitted by applicable Law, all past and present directors and officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party upon receipt of an undertaking from such Indemnified Party to repay such advanced expenses if it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification hereunder), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative (in each case whether asserted or claimed before or after the Effective Time) arising out of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time in connection with such Indemnified Person serving as a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including in connection with an Indemnified Person serving at the request of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer, employee, trustee or partner of another corporation, partnership, trust, joint venture, employee benefit plan or other entity and including acts or omissions occurring in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby).

(b) For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent shall maintain or cause the Surviving Company to maintain for the benefit of the Indemnified Persons a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (from the Company’s current insurance carrier or an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating, as of the Closing Date, as the Company’s current insurance carrier) that provides coverage for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) with terms and conditions which are, in the aggregate, not less advantageous to such Indemnified Persons than the terms and conditions of the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of the Company; provided that, at Parent’s option, in lieu of the foregoing insurance coverage, Parent or, with Parent’s consent, the Company may at or prior to the Effective Time substitute therefor a single premium tail coverage with respect to the D&O Insurance that provides coverage for period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, with terms and conditions which are, in the aggregate, not less advantageous to such Indemnified Persons than the terms and conditions of the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will Parent be required to expend, in the aggregate, an amount in excess of 300% of the annual premiums currently paid by the Company for the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of the Company (the “Insurance Amount”), and if Parent is unable to maintain or obtain the insurance called for by this Section 5.7(b) for an amount equal to or less than the Insurance Amount, Parent shall obtain as much comparable insurance as may be available for the Insurance Amount.

A-46

(c) If Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, to the extent required, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.7.

(d) The rights of each Indemnified Person under this Section 5.7 shall be in addition to any rights such person may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, under Delaware law or any other applicable Law or pursuant to any employment agreement or indemnification agreement in effect on the date hereof.

(e) For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent shall not permit any amendments to the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Company or its Subsidiaries that would adversely affect any right of a person who was or is a director or officer of the Company or its Subsidiaries at or prior to the Effective Time with respect to elimination of liability of directors, indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses under the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents in effect as of the date hereof.

(f) The provisions of this Section 5.7 are intended to be, following the Effective Time, for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and personal representatives.

5.8. Publicity. Except with respect to any Change of Recommendation or any other action taken by the Company or the Company Board (or duly constituted committee of the Board) pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 5.4, so long as this Agreement is in effect, each of Parent and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that a party may, without obtaining the prior consent of the other party (but after prior consultation, to the extent practicable in the circumstances), issue such press release or make such public statement as may upon the advice of outside counsel be required by applicable Law or the rules and regulations of NASDAQ. Without limiting the reach of the preceding sentence, Parent and the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate to develop all public announcement materials and make appropriate management available at presentations related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as reasonably requested by the other party. In addition, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall consult with Parent regarding communications with customers, stockholders, prospective investors and employees related to the transactions contemplated hereby.

A-47

5.9. Notice of Certain Matters. Each party hereto shall give reasonably prompt written notice to the other party hereto, if to such party’s knowledge, (a) any representation or warranty made by it contained in this Agreement becomes untrue or inaccurate such that it would be reasonable to expect that the applicable closing conditions would be incapable of being satisfied by the End Date or (b) it fails to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement; provided that, (i) nothing in this Section 5.9 shall be deemed to affect, modify or condition the obligations of each party to effect the Closing and (ii) each party’s obligations, actions or inactions pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall be deemed excluded for purposes of determining whether the conditions set forth in either Section 6.2(b) or Section 6.3(b) have been satisfied.

5.10. Anti-takeover Laws.

8.12. Specific Performance.

(a) Each of Parent, Merger Sub, Guarantor and the Company agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms on a timely basis or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, subject to Section 8.12(b), Parent, Merger Sub and the Company shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court identified in Section 8.11(a) above, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, Guarantor and the Company agrees that, subject to Section 8.12(b), it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court having jurisdiction related to this Agreement as provided in Section 8.11(a), may seek such an injunction without the necessity of demonstrating damages or posting a bond or other security in connection with any such injunction or other equitable relief. Subject to Section 8.12(b), each of Guarantor, Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, hereby agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by Parent, Merger Sub or Guarantor, or the Company, as applicable, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of Parent, Merger Sub or Guarantor, or the Company, as applicable, under this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including Section 8.12(a)), it is explicitly agreed that the Company shall have the right to obtain an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies in connection with enforcing Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligation to effect the Closing or consummate the Merger (and Guarantor’s obligation to contribute to or otherwise make available to Parent and/or Merger Sub to proceeds of the Debt Financing in accordance with Section 8.16) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement if and only if (i) all conditions in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the Closing (but subject to the satisfaction of such conditions at the Closing)) at the time when the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 1.2, (ii) the Debt Financing has been funded or will be funded at the Closing on the terms set forth in the Debt Commitment Letters and (iii) the Company has confirmed in a written notice to Parent that if an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy is granted, then the Company will take such actions required of it to effect the Closing and consummate the Merger.

8.13. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid, illegal or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, and if any provision of this

A-69

Agreement is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable, in all cases so long as neither the economic nor legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or its stockholders. Upon any such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

8.14. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of any party hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party, except that Parent and Merger Sub may assign (in whole but not in part) its rights and obligations hereunder to any wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent after providing written notice thereof to the Company at least five (5) Business Days in advance thereof; provided, however, that no such assignment shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Company if such assignment could increase the risk that any of the conditions set forth in Article VI may not be satisfied or may be delayed in being satisfied, result in a breach of any of covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement or could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Company; provided, further, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Parent or Merger Sub of any obligation or liability under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

8.15. Non-Recourse. Any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement may only be brought against persons that are expressly named as parties hereto (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Guarantor), and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein. No former, current or future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling persons, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners or assignees of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub or any of their respective affiliates or Representatives (including any Lender Related Party), in each case, that is not a party hereto, shall have any liability hereunder or obligation for any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, obligations or liabilities of the Company, Parent, Guarantor or Merger Sub under this Agreement or for any action, suit, arbitration, claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby (including the breach, termination or failure to consummate such transactions), in each case whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Laws or otherwise and whether by piercing the corporate veil, by a claim by or on behalf of a party hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.15 does not limit or affect any rights or remedies that Parent or Merger Sub may have against the parties to the Debt Commitment Letter and does not limit or affect any rights or remedies that the Company may have against the Issuing Bank under the Payment Guaranty.

8.16. Guaranty.

(a) Guarantor, in order to induce the Company to execute and deliver this Agreement, hereby (i) agrees to contribute to or otherwise make available to Parent and/or Merger Sub the proceeds of the Debt Financing necessary to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration and all other cash amounts required to be paid by Parent in accordance with

A-70

Article II and (ii) absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees (the “Guaranty”) the due, punctual and full payment and performance of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s (including its permitted assigns) obligations to pay the Parent Termination Fee or the Parent Regulatory Termination Fee (and, if applicable, any Expense and Interest Payments) and any amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.16(e), if and when owed.

ANNEX C

[BANK OF AMERICA MERRILL LYNCH LETTERHEAD]

April 15, 2017

The Board of Directors

MoneyGram International, Inc.

2828 N. Harwood St.

15^th Floor

Dallas, TX 75201

Members of the Board of Directors:

We understand that MoneyGram International, Inc. (“MoneyGram”) proposes to enter into that First Amendment, dated as of April 15, 2017 (the “Amendment”), to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 26, 2017 (the “Original Agreement” and, as amended by the Amendment, the “Agreement”), by and between MoneyGram, Alipay (UK) Limited, a United Kingdom limited company (“Parent”), Alipay (Hong Kong) Holding Limited, a Hong Kong limited company (“Guarantor”), and Matrix Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Agreement, among other things, at the Effective Time (as defined in the Agreement), Merger Sub will merge with and into MoneyGram (the “Merger”), with MoneyGram continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger, and each share of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of MoneyGram (“MoneyGram Common Stock”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive $18.00 in cash, without interest (the “Consideration”). The terms and conditions of the Merger are more fully set forth in the Agreement.

You have requested our opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the holders of MoneyGram Common Stock of the Consideration to be received by such holders in the Merger.

In connection with this opinion, we have, among other things:

(1)

reviewed certain publicly available business and financial information relating to MoneyGram;

(2)

reviewed certain internal financial and operating information with respect to the business, operations and prospects of MoneyGram furnished to or discussed with us by the management of MoneyGram, including certain financial forecasts relating to MoneyGram prepared by the management of MoneyGram (such forecasts, “MoneyGram Forecasts”);

(3)

discussed the past and current business, operations, financial condition and prospects of MoneyGram with members of senior management of MoneyGram;

(4)

reviewed the trading history for MoneyGram Common Stock and a comparison of that trading history with the trading histories of other companies we deemed relevant;

(5)

compared certain financial and stock market information of MoneyGram with similar information of other companies we deemed relevant;

(6)

compared certain financial terms of the Merger to financial terms, to the extent publicly available, of other transactions we deemed relevant;

(7)

reviewed the Original Agreement;

(8)

reviewed a draft, dated April 15, 2017, of the Amendment (the “Draft Amendment”); and

(9)

performed such other analyses and studies and considered such other information and factors as we deemed appropriate.

C-1

In arriving at our opinion, we have assumed and relied upon, without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of the financial and other information and data publicly available or provided to or otherwise reviewed by or discussed with us and have relied upon the assurances of the management of MoneyGram that they are not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make such information or data inaccurate or misleading in any material respect. With respect to the MoneyGram Forecasts, we have been advised by MoneyGram, and have assumed, that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of MoneyGram as to the future financial performance of MoneyGram. We have not made or been provided with any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of MoneyGram, nor have we made any physical inspection of the properties or assets of MoneyGram. We have not evaluated the solvency or fair value of MoneyGram or Parent under any state, federal or other laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. We have assumed, at the direction of MoneyGram, that the Merger will be consummated in accordance with its terms, without waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary governmental, regulatory and other approvals, consents, releases and waivers for the Merger, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition, including any divestiture requirements or amendments or modifications, will be imposed that would have an adverse effect on MoneyGram or the contemplated benefits of the Merger. We also have assumed, at the direction of MoneyGram, that the final executed Amendment will not differ in any material respect from the Draft Amendment reviewed by us.

We express no view or opinion as to any terms or other aspects or implications of the Merger (other than the Consideration to the extent expressly specified herein), including, without limitation, the form or structure of the Merger, any related transactions or any voting or other agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into in connection with or related to the Merger or otherwise. At your direction, we engaged in only a limited solicitation of proposals from selected third parties regarding a possible acquisition of MoneyGram. Our opinion is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Consideration to be received by holders of MoneyGram Common Stock and no opinion or view is expressed with respect to any consideration received in connection with the Merger by the holders of any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of any party. In addition, no opinion or view is expressed with respect to the fairness (financial or otherwise) of the amount, nature or any other aspect of any compensation to any of the officers, directors or employees of any party to the Merger, or class of such persons, relative to the Consideration or otherwise. Furthermore, no opinion or view is expressed as to the relative merits of the Merger in comparison to other strategies or transactions that might be available to MoneyGram or in which MoneyGram might engage or as to the underlying business decision of MoneyGram to proceed with or effect the Merger. We also are not expressing any view or opinion with respect to, and we have relied, at the direction of MoneyGram, upon, the assessments of representatives of MoneyGram regarding legal, regulatory, accounting, tax and similar matters relating to MoneyGram or the Merger, as to which matters we understand that MoneyGram obtained such advice as it deemed necessary from qualified professionals. In addition, we express no opinion or recommendation as to how any stockholder should vote or act in connection with the Merger or any other matter.

We have acted as financial advisor to the Board of Directors of MoneyGram in connection with the Merger and will receive a fee for our services, the principal portion of which is contingent upon consummation of the Merger. In addition, MoneyGram has agreed to reimburse our expenses and indemnify us against certain liabilities arising out of our engagement.

We and our affiliates comprise a full service securities firm and commercial bank engaged in securities, commodities and derivatives trading, foreign exchange and other brokerage activities, and principal investing as well as providing investment, corporate and private banking, asset and investment management, financing and financial advisory services and other commercial services and products to a wide range of companies, governments and individuals. In the ordinary course of our businesses, we and our affiliates may invest on a principal basis or on behalf of customers or manage funds that invest, make or hold long or short positions, finance positions or trade or otherwise effect transactions in equity, debt or other securities or financial instruments (including derivatives, bank loans or other obligations) of MoneyGram, Parent and certain of their respective affiliates.

C-2

We and our affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to MoneyGram and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having acted or acting as administrative agent, bookrunner, co-lead arranger for, and as a lender (including a swing line lender and a letter of credit lender) under, certain credit facilities and/or agreements of MoneyGram, and (ii) having provided or providing certain foreign exchange, treasury and trade management services and products to MoneyGram.

In addition, we and our affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Thomas H Lee Partners LP, an affiliate of MoneyGram (“TH Lee”) and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including (i) having acted or acting as financial advisor to TH Lee and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies in connection with certain mergers and acquisition transactions, (ii) having acted or acting as administrative agent, collateral agent, arranger, bookrunner and/or lender for TH Lee and certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies in connection with the financing for various acquisition transactions, (iii) having acted or acting as underwriter, initial purchaser and placement agent for various equity and debt offerings undertaken by TH Lee and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies, and (iv) having provided or providing certain treasury and trade services and products to TH Lee and/or certain of its affiliates and portfolio companies.

In addition, we and our affiliates in the past have provided, currently are providing, and in the future may provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to Parent, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., and certain of their respective affiliates, and have received or in the future may receive compensation for the rendering of these services, including having acted or acting as a lender to Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. and certain of its affiliates under various credit, leasing and/or other facilities.

It is understood that this letter is for the benefit and use of the Board of Directors of MoneyGram (in its capacity as such) in connection with and for purposes of its evaluation of the Merger.

Our opinion is necessarily based on financial, economic, monetary, market and other conditions and circumstances as in effect on, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect this opinion, and we do not have any obligation to update, revise, or reaffirm this opinion. The issuance of this opinion was approved by a fairness opinion review committee of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, including the various assumptions and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion on the date hereof that the Consideration to be received in the Merger by holders of MoneyGram Common Stock is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.

Very truly yours,
