NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Netshoes (Cayman) Limited Shareholders:

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of Netshoes (Cayman) Limited (“ Netshoes ”, the “ Company ” or “ we ”) will be held at our principal executive offices, located at Rua Vergueiro 961, Liberdade, 01504-001 São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil, on Thursday, May 30, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. (São Paulo time) (10:00 a.m. Eastern time) (the “ Extraordinary General Meeting ” or the “ Meeting ”).

As previously announced, on April 29, 2019 the Company entered into a merger agreement with Magazine Luiza S.A. and Magazine Luiza Cayman Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza S.A. Pursuant to this merger agreement, Magazine Luiza S.A. will indirectly acquire Netshoes by way of a statutory merger pursuant to the laws of the Cayman Islands, such that, at the effective time of the merger, Magazine Luiza Cayman Ltd will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing after the merger as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza S.A.

Holders of record of the Company’s common shares, with a nominal or par value of US$0.0033 per share (the “ Common Shares ”), as of the close of business on May 7, 2019, Eastern time (the “ Record Date ”), are cordially invited to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting. Holders of record of the Common Shares at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to attend and vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting and any adjourned meeting thereof.

The following resolutions will be proposed as Special Resolutions and Ordinary Resolutions respectively at the Extraordinary General Meeting:

AS SPECIAL RESOLUTIONS THAT:

1. The merger of the Company with Magazine Luiza Cayman Ltd, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “ Merging Company ”), whereby the Company will be the surviving company and all the undertakings, property and liabilities of the Company and the Merging Company shall vest in the Company by virtue of such merger pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Law (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands (the “ Merger ”), be approved;
2. The agreement and plan of merger between the Company, Magazine Luiza S.A. and the Merging Company dated as of April 29 2019 (the “ Merger Agreement ”) in the form annexed hereto as Annex A, be approved, ratified, adopted and confirmed in all respects;
3. The consideration to be received by the shareholders of the Company, under the Merger Agreement, consisting of US$2.00 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, for each Common Share of the Company owned immediately prior to the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), be approved; and

   1

AS ORDINARY RESOLUTIONS THAT:

1. Any Director of the Company be authorized to execute and deliver any agreements, instruments and other documents, and to do any other things, as such Director shall in his absolute discretion deem necessary or desirable in connection with the Plan of Merger and the consummation of the Merger in accordance with the Companies Law (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands; and
2. All actions taken by any Director of the Company relative to the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger or the transactions contemplated thereunder, and generally with respect to the business of the Company up to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting be approved, ratified and confirmed in all respects.

We refer to these proposals collectively as the “ Merger Proposal .”

The form of the Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 4.08 to Netshoes’ Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 20-F that was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) on April 30, 2019 and is also attached as Annex A to the enclosed information statement.

As of the date hereof, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously recommends (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) that Netshoes’ shareholders vote in favor of the Merger Proposal presented at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

If you are not voting in person, and if you direct the proxy holder to vote FOR any or all of the Merger Proposals, you may indicate in your proxy card if you would like to change such direction, without any further action, to vote AGAINST all resolutions if the Board of Directors announces, on or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, an adverse recommendation with respect to the Merger Proposal.  If no additional direction is made in your proxy card, the Common Shares in respect of which a proxy card is given will be voted in accordance with the directions made in your proxy card unless revoked in a timely manner as further discussed below.

If a quorum is present, the adoption and approval of the aforesaid Merger Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting requires (i) the affirmative vote of holders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, at the Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) for the Special Resolutions and (ii) the affirmative vote of holders representing at least the majority of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, at the Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) for the Ordinary Resolutions, in each case, excluding abstentions and broker non-votes.

Further details regarding the proposals are set out in the attached information statement (which information statement is hereby incorporated into this notice by reference). The accompanying information statement provides you with detailed information about the proposed Merger and the Extraordinary General Meeting. Please give this material your careful attention. You also may obtain more information about Netshoes, the Merger Agreement and the Extraordinary General Meeting from documents we have filed with or furnished to the SEC or from Netshoes’ website at http://investor.netshoes.com.

Please read our Information Statement for important information on each of the proposals. Your vote is important. Whether or not you expect to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting, and whether you are a registered shareholder (with shares held of record) or a holder of shares in street name (with shares held by a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee), please vote at your earliest convenience by following the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability, notice of extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, proxy card and in our Information Statement, as applicable.

By inserting the control number to be provided to you on your proxy card at www.investorvote.com/NETS for registered shareholders and at www.proxyvote.com for street shareholders (if your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee supports www.proxyvote.com and has agreed to provide you with a control number for this purpose), you will have instructions on how to access our proxy materials, and on how to vote via the Internet, mobile device or by proxy card. If you own shares in street name, meaning that your shares are held by a bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee, you may also instruct that institution on how to vote your shares.

Proxies submitted by registered shareholders and street shareholders (whether by internet or by mailing a proxy card) must be received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on May 29, 2019 to ensure your representation if you are not planning to attend in person our Extraordinary General Meeting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, completing the proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card will not deprive you of your right to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote your Common Shares in person. Please note, however, that if your Common Shares are held of record by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting in person, you must obtain from the record holder a “legal proxy” issued in your name and present your voting information card. 

If you abstain from voting, fail to cast your vote in person, fail to complete and return your proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card, or fail to give voting instructions to your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, your vote will not be included or counted in the determination of the number of Common Shares present and voting for purposes of determining whether any resolution has been passed.

If you receive more than one proxy card because you own Common Shares that are registered in different names, please vote all of your Common Shares shown on each of your proxy cards in accordance with the instructions set forth on each such proxy card.

Shareholders who dissent from the Merger will have the right to receive payment of the “fair value” of their Common Shares if the Merger is completed, but only if they deliver to the Company, before the vote is taken, a written objection to the merger and subsequently comply with all procedures and requirements of Section 238 of the Companies Law (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands for the exercise of dissenters’ rights, which is attached as Annex E to the accompanying information statement. The “fair value” of your Common Shares as determined under that statute could be more than, the same as, or less than the merger consideration you would receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement if you do not exercise dissenters’ rights with respect to your Common Shares.

Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.

Very truly yours,

By Order of the Board of Directors,

Marcio Kumruian

Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer

Neither the SEC, nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved the transactions contemplated hereunder or determined if the accompanying document is accurate or adequate. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

INFORMATION STATEMENT

EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON MAY 30, 2019

INTRODUCTION

We, Netshoes (Cayman) Limited (“ Netshoes ,” the “ Company ” or “ we ”), are furnishing this information statement to our shareholders in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of Netshoes (the “ Board ” or our “ Board of Directors ”) of proxies to be used at an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, as may be adjourned or postponed from time to time (the “ Extraordinary General Meeting ” or “ Meeting ”), to be held at our executive offices located at Rua Vergueiro 961, Liberdade, Zip Code 01504-001, City of São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil, on Thursday, May 30, 2019, at 11:00 a.m. (São Paulo time) (10:00 a.m. Eastern time), and thereafter, as it may be adjourned from time to time.

This information statement and our 2018 annual report on Form 20-F can be accessed, free of charge, on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at http://investor.netshoes.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov .  Prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, we intend to file under Form 6-K our unaudited financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2019, which will be incorporated by reference into this information statement.

By inserting the control number to be provided to you on your proxy card at www.investorvote.com/NETS for registered shareholders and at www.proxyvote.com for street shareholders (if your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee supports www.proxyvote.com and has agreed to provide you with a control number for this purpose), you will have instructions on how to access our proxy materials, and on how to vote via the Internet, mobile device or by proxy card. If you own shares in street name, meaning that your shares are held by a bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee, you may also instruct that institution on how to vote your shares.

Record Date, Share Ownership and Quorum

Only holders of the Company’s common shares, with a nominal or par value of US$0.0033 per share (the “ Common Shares ”) of record at the close of business on May 7, 2019, Eastern time (the “ Record Date ”) are entitled to attend and vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting and any adjourned meeting thereof.

As of the close of business on the Record Date, 31,056,244 Common Shares were issued and outstanding. One or more shareholders holding in aggregate not less than one-third (1/3) in nominal or par value of the total issued voting shares in the Company entitled to vote upon the business to be transacted shall constitute a quorum at the Extraordinary General Meeting. In the absence of the requisite quorum, the Meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place, unless otherwise determined by the directors of the Company in accordance with the Companies Law (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands (the “ Companies Law ”), Netshoes’ Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Merger Agreement.

Certain shareholders holding an aggregate of 47.9% of the Common Shares have agreed with Magazine Luiza S.A. to attend the Meeting in person or by proxy and vote in favor of the Merger Proposal (as defined below). As a result, it is expected that the quorum requirement mentioned immediately above will be achieved.

Voting and Proxy Solicitation

Voting at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be conducted by poll vote.  Each Common Share issued and outstanding as of the close of business on the Record Date is entitled to one vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Provided that a quorum is present, each Special Resolution put to the vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting requires the affirmative vote of holders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, on such resolution at the Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof), excluding abstentions and broker non-votes. Each Ordinary Resolution put to the vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting requires the affirmative vote of holders representing at least a majority of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, on such resolution at the Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) excluding abstentions and broker non-votes.

i

Proxies are being solicited by the Company. Certain of the Company’s officers, directors, employees and agents may solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile, electronic mail or other personal contact. However, such parties will not receive additional compensation therefor. The Company and Magazine Luiza will bear the cost of the solicitation of proxies, including the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing the proxy materials. In connection with the proxy solicitation, the Company has engaged Georgeson LLC to act as proxy solicitor for the Merger Proposal.

Internet Availability of Proxy Materials

We are furnishing proxy materials to our shareholders primarily via the Internet, instead of mailing printed copies of those materials to each shareholder.

On May 13, 2019, we will mail to our shareholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and a notice of extraordinary general meeting of shareholders containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and the notice of extraordinary general meeting of shareholders directs shareholders to a website where they can access our proxy materials, including our information statement and our annual report, and view instructions on how to vote via the Internet, mobile device or by proxy card. This process is designed to expedite shareholders’ receipt of proxy materials, lower the cost of the Extraordinary General Meeting, and help conserve natural resources. If you received a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and/or a notice of extraordinary general meeting of shareholders and would prefer to receive a paper copy of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and/or proxy cards, as the case may be.

Voting by Holders of Common Shares

Common Shares that are properly voted via the Internet, mobile device or for which proxy cards are properly executed and returned within the deadline set forth below will be voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting in accordance with the directions given.  If no specific instructions are given in such proxy cards, the proxy holder will vote the Common Shares they represent as our Board of Directors may recommend. On any other matters that may properly come before the Extraordinary General Meeting, or at any adjournment thereof, the persons named in the proxy card will vote the Common Shares they represent in their discretion, or if so instructed in the proxy card, as our Board of Directors may recommend.

Where any holder of Common Shares affirmatively abstains from voting, fails to cast his, her or its vote in person or by proxy or fails to give voting instructions to the broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, on any particular resolution, the votes attaching to such Common Shares will not be included or counted in the determination of the number of Common Shares present and voting for the purposes of determining whether such resolution has been passed (but they will be counted for the purposes of determining the quorum, as described above).

Voting via the Internet or by mobile device helps save money by reducing postage and proxy tabulation costs. Each of these voting methods is available 24 hours per day, seven days per week. To vote by any of these methods, read this Information Statement, have your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy card in hand, and follow the instructions set forth in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy card, as the case may be.

Proxies submitted by registered shareholders and street shareholders (whether by internet or by mailing a proxy card) must be received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on May 29, 2019 to ensure your representation if you are not planning to attend in person our Extraordinary General Meeting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, completing the proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card will not deprive you of your right to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote your Common Shares in person. Please note, however, that if your Common Shares are held of record by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting in person, you must obtain from the record holder a “legal proxy” issued in your name and present your voting information card.   

ii

The manner in which your shares may be voted depends on how your shares are held. If you own shares of record, meaning that your shares are represented in book entry form as recorded in the register of members of the Company in your name so that you appear as a shareholder on the records of Computershare (i.e., you are a registered shareholder), our stock transfer agent, this information statement, the notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and the proxy card will be available to you at www.investorvote.com/NETS by inserting the control number on the proxy card to be provided to you by the Company. You may provide voting instructions by internet, mobile device or (if you have received paper copies of our proxy materials) by returning a proxy card. You also may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote in person. If you own Common Shares of record and you do not vote by proxy or in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting, your shares will not be voted.

If you own shares in street name (i.e., you are street shareholder), meaning that your shares are held by a bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee, you are then considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name,” and as a result, this information statement, the notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and the proxy card will be available to you at www.proxyvote.com by inserting the control number on the instructions to be provided to you by your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares if your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee supports www.proxyvote.com and has agreed to provide you with a control number for this purpose. You may provide voting instructions by internet, mobile device or (if you have received paper copies of proxy materials through your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee) by returning a voting instruction form received from that institution. If you own Common Shares in street name and attend the Extraordinary General Meeting, you must obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee that holds your shares in order to vote your shares at the Meeting and present your voting information card.

As of the date hereof, the Board of Directors of the Company recommends voting in favor of the Merger Proposal.  If you direct the proxy holder to vote FOR any or all of the Merger Proposals, you may indicate in your proxy card if you would like to change such direction, without any further action, to vote AGAINST all resolutions if the Board of Directors announces, on or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, an adverse recommendation with respect to the Merger Proposal.  If no additional direction is made in your proxy card, the Common Shares in respect of which a proxy card is given will be voted in accordance with the directions made in your proxy card unless revoked in a timely manner as further discussed below.

Revocability of Proxies

Registered shareholders may revoke their proxy or change voting instructions before shares are voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting by submitting a written notice of revocation to Otávio Lyra (ir@netshoes.com and otavio.lyra@netshoes.com), the Company’s investor relations officer, or a duly executed proxy (via the Internet, mobile device or by returning a proxy card) bearing a later date (which must be received by the Company no later than the date set forth below) or by attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting in person. A shareholder owning Common Shares in street name may revoke or change voting instructions by contacting the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares or by obtaining a legal proxy from such institution and voting in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting. 

If you are not planning to attend in person our Extraordinary General Meeting, to ensure your representation at our Extraordinary General Meeting, revocation of proxies submitted by registered shareholders and street shareholders (whether by internet or by mailing a proxy card) must be received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on May 29, 2019.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING AND
THE MERGER

The following are some of the questions regarding the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the Extraordinary General Meeting that you, as a shareholder of Netshoes, may have, and answers to those questions. These questions and answers, as well as the summary following the questions and answers, are not meant to be a substitute for the information contained in the remainder of this document, its annexes and the additional documents referred to herein, and this information is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed descriptions and explanations contained elsewhere in this document, its annexes and the additional documents referred to herein. We urge you to carefully read this document in its entirety prior to making any voting decision regarding the Merger.

Except as otherwise specifically noted in this information statement, “we,” “our,” “us,” “Netshoes,” or the “Company” and similar words in this information statement refer to Netshoes (Cayman) Limited and its subsidiaries. In addition, we refer (1) to Magazine Luiza S.A. as “Magazine Luiza” and to (2) Magazine Luiza Cayman Ltd as “Merging Company.” All references to the “Merger” refer to the merger of Merging Company with and into Netshoes, with Netshoes continuing as the surviving company and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza, and all references to the “Merger Agreement” refer to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 29, 2019, by and among Netshoes, Magazine Luiza and Merging Company, a form of which is included as Annex A to this information statement (as it may be amended from time to time). Netshoes, following the completion of the Merger, is sometimes referred to in this information statement as the “Surviving Company.” All references to “dollars” or “US$” refer to United States dollars.

Q:          Why am I receiving this information statement?

A:           Netshoes and Magazine Luiza have agreed that Magazine Luiza will acquire Netshoes through the merger of Merging Company with and into Netshoes, subject to certain conditions. Netshoes is holding the Extraordinary General Meeting in order to obtain shareholder approval of each of the Merger Proposals (i.e., approving the Merger Agreement, the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, and the consideration to be received by the shareholders of the Company in the Merger, consisting of US$2.00 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, for each Common Share of the Company owned immediately prior to the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “ Merger Consideration ”)“. We cannot complete the Merger unless our shareholders approve the Merger Proposal.

We have included in this information statement important information about the Merger, the Merger Agreement and the Extraordinary General Meeting. You should read this information carefully in its entirety. We have attached the form of the Merger Agreement as Annex A and the Plan of Merger as Annex B. Your vote is very important and we encourage you to vote by proxy as soon as possible, or in person, at the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Q:          When and where will the extraordinary general meeting be held?

A:            The Extraordinary General Meeting is scheduled to be held at the principal executive offices of Netshoes, located at Rua Vergueiro 961, Liberdade, 01504-001 São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil, on Thursday, May 30, 2019, at 11:00 a.m. (São Paulo time) (10:00 a.m. Eastern time), unless it is postponed or adjourned.

Q:          Who is entitled to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A:            Netshoes has fixed May 7, 2019 as the record date for the Extraordinary General Meeting. If you were a Netshoes shareholder at the close of business on the Record Date, you are entitled to vote on matters that come before the Extraordinary General Meeting. However, you may only vote your shares if you are present in person or represented by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Q:          What matters will be voted on at the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A:            You will be asked to consider and vote on a proposal to approve the acquisition of Netshoes by Magazine Luiza, including approval of the Merger Agreement, the Merger, the Merger Consideration, and all other transactions and arrangements contemplated under the Merger Agreement.

We currently know of no other business to be transacted at the Extraordinary General Meeting, other than as set forth above; but, if any other matter is properly presented at the Meeting, including voting on the adjournment or postponement of the Extraordinary General Meeting, the persons named in the proxy card will vote the Common Shares they represent in their discretion, or if so instructed in the proxy card, as our Board of Directors may recommend.

Q:          What is the Merger?

A:            The Merger is a transaction pursuant to which Merging Company will merge with and into Netshoes. Once the Merger Agreement is authorized and approved by the shareholders of Netshoes and the other closing conditions under the Merger Agreement have been satisfied or waived, Merging Company will merge with and into Netshoes, with Netshoes continuing as the Surviving Company and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza after the Merger and the Common Shares held by you will be surrendered and cancelled in exchange for the Merger Consideration.

Q:          What will I receive in the Merger?

A:            If you own Common Shares and the Merger is completed, at the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), you will be entitled to receive the per share merger consideration, consisting of US$2.00 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes, for each Common Share that you own at the Effective Time (unless you validly exercise and have not effectively withdrawn or lost your dissenter rights under Section 238 of the Companies Law with respect to the Merger, in which event you will be entitled to receive the “fair value” of each share as determined pursuant to Section 238 of the Companies Law). You will not receive any shares or other equity interests in the Surviving Company.

Please see “ The Merger— Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences ” and “ The Merger—Material Cayman Islands Tax Consequences ” beginning on pages 44 and 47 respectively, for a more detailed description of certain tax consequences of the Merger. You should consult your own tax advisor for a full understanding of how the Merger will affect your U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. taxes.

Q:          After the Merger is completed, how will I receive the Merger Consideration for my shares?

A:            If you are a registered holder of Common Shares, promptly after the effective time of the Merger (in any event within two business days after the Effective Time), a paying agent appointed by Magazine Luiza will mail you a form of letter of transmittal specifying how the delivery of the Merger Consideration to you will be effected. You will receive cash for your Common Shares from the paying agent after you comply with these instructions. You will receive an amount equal to the number of your Common Shares multiplied by US$2.00 in cash, without interest and net of any applicable withholding taxes, in exchange for the cancellation of your Common Shares.

If your Common Shares are held in “street name” by your broker, bank or other nominee, you will receive instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee on how to surrender your Common Shares and receive the Merger Consideration for those Common Shares.

Q:          What is the recommendation of Netshoes’ Board of Directors?

A:            As of the date hereof, our Board of Directors unanimously recommends (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) that you vote FOR the Merger Proposal.

2

Mr. Kumruian abstained based on the advice of counsel due to his beneficial ownership of 12.5% of the Common Shares of the Company in view of the potential conflict of interest under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Mr. Kumruian is a party to a voting and support agreement with Magazine Luiza pursuant to which, among other things, Mr. Kumruian has agreed to vote all Common Shares beneficially owned by him in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and against any acquisition proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or any transaction that is the subject of an acquisition proposal. Other shareholders of the Company are also party to the voting and support agreement. See “ Summary—Voting and Support Agreement.”

If you are not voting in person, and if you direct the proxy holder to vote FOR any or all of the Merger Proposals, you may indicate in your proxy card if you would like to change such direction, without any further action, to vote AGAINST all resolutions if the Board of Directors announces, on or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, an adverse recommendation with respect to the Merger Proposal.  If no additional direction is made in your proxy card, the Common Shares in respect of which a proxy card is given will be voted in accordance with the directions made in your proxy card unless it is revoked in a timely manner. See “ Can I change my vote after I have signed and returned my proxy card or voting instruction card ?”

Q:          What vote of Netshoes shareholders is required to approve the Merger Proposal?

A:            Provided that a quorum is present, the adoption and approval of the Merger Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting requires (i) the affirmative vote of holders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, at the Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) for the Special Resolutions and (ii) the affirmative vote of holders representing at least the majority of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, at the Meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) for the Ordinary Resolutions, in each case, excluding abstentions and broker non-votes.

Q:          Have any Netshoes shareholders agreed to vote FOR the Merger Agreement and the Merger?

A:            Yes. CDK Net Fund IC, Camelback Overseas Corp., Tiger Global Private Investment Partners V, L.P., Tiger Global Private Investment Partners VI, L.P., LFX Trust, Scott Shleifer 2011 Descendants’ Trust and HCFT Holdings, LLC, shareholders who collectively held 47.9% of the outstanding Common Shares of Netshoes on the date of the Merger Agreement, have entered into a voting and support agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, each such shareholder has agreed to vote all Common Shares beneficially owned by such shareholder in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and against any acquisition proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or any transaction that is the subject of an acquisition proposal.

Q:          What is the quorum required for the Meeting?

A:            Pursuant to Netshoes’ Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the quorum required for the Extraordinary General Meeting shall be formed by shareholders, present in person or by proxy, holding shares representing at least in the aggregate one-third (1/3) in nominal or par value of the total issued voting shares in Netshoes entitled to vote the proposed matters. If within half an hour from the time appointed for the holding of the Meeting a quorum is not present, or if during the Meeting a quorum ceases to be present, the Meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place or any other date, time and place as the directors shall designate and state in a notice to the shareholders entitled to vote at the original Meeting. If, at such adjourned Meeting, a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding such Meeting, the shareholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum.

3

Q:          When do you expect the Merger to be completed?

A:            We are working towards completing the Merger as quickly as reasonably possible. Several conditions must be satisfied or waived before the Merger is completed, including approval by the Brazilian Conselho Administrativo de Defesa da Concorrência (“ CADE ”) . See “ The Merger Agreement— Conditions to the Merger ” for a summary description of these conditions. We expect to complete the merger as soon as Brazilian antitrust approval is obtained from CADE, which we expect to obtain as early as June 2019. The Merger Agreement contains an outside date of July 31, 2019. Because the Merger is subject to CADE approval and other conditions, some of which are beyond Magazine Luiza’s and Netshoes’ control, the exact timing cannot be predicted with certainty.

Q:          Am I entitled to dissenter rights?

A:            Yes. Shareholders who dissent from the Merger in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Law will have the right to receive payment of the “fair value” of their Common Shares if the Merger is completed, but only if they deliver to Netshoes, before the vote to authorize and approve the Merger is taken at the Extraordinary General Meeting, a written objection to the Merger and subsequently comply with all procedures and requirements of Section 238 of the Companies Law. A copy of Section 238 of the Companies Law is attached as Annex E to this information statement. The “fair value” of the Common Shares determined under the Companies Law could be more than, the same as, or less than the Merger Consideration dissenting shareholders would otherwise receive.

We encourage you to read the section of this information statement entitled “ Dissenter Rights ” carefully and to consult your own Cayman Islands legal counsel if you desire to exercise your dissenter rights. Exercising dissenter rights will require potentially significant expenditure of resources in relation to legal counsel in the Cayman Islands so a decision to object to the Merger and exercise such rights should only be undertaken following careful deliberation and with the advice of counsel.

Q:          Will I continue to be able to trade my Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) following the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A:            Netshoes will not immediately cease to be a publicly traded company upon approval of the Merger Proposal by its shareholders.  The shareholders are expected to be able to trade their Common Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) after the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting until the Effective Time of the Merger.

Q:          What happens if the Merger is not completed?

A:            If the Merger Agreement is not approved by our shareholders or if the Merger is not completed for any other reason, our shareholders will not receive any Merger Consideration for their Common Shares. We will remain a public company and the Common Shares will continue to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Under certain circumstances related to a termination, as specified in the Merger Agreement, we may be required to pay to Magazine Luiza a termination fee amounting to US$1,800,000.00. Please see “ The Merger Agreement—Termination of the Merger Agreement ” and “ The Merger Agreement—Termination Fee; Expenses ” for a summary description of these circumstances.

Q:          How can I vote?

A:            The manner in which your shares may be voted depends on how your shares are held. If you own shares of record, meaning that your shares are represented in book entry form as recorded in the register of members of the Company in your name so that you appear as a shareholder on the records of Computershare (i.e., you are a registered shareholder), our stock transfer agent, this information statement, the notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and the proxy card will be available to you at www.investorvote.com/NETS by inserting the control number on the proxy card to be provided to you by the Company. You may provide voting instructions by internet, mobile device or (if you have received paper copies of our proxy materials) by returning a proxy card. You also may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote in person. If you own Common Shares of record and you do not vote by proxy or in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting, your shares will not be voted.

4

If you own shares in street name (i.e., you are street shareholder), meaning that your shares are held by a bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee, you are then considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name,” and as a result, this information statement, the notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and the proxy card will be available to you at www.proxyvote.com by inserting the control number on the instructions to be provided to you by your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares if your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee supports www.proxyvote.com and has agreed to provide you with a control number for this purpose. You may provide voting instructions by Internet, mobile device or (if you have received paper copies of proxy materials through your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee) by returning a voting instruction form received from that institution. If you own Common Shares in street name and attend the Extraordinary General Meeting, you must obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee that holds your shares in order to vote your shares at the Meeting and present your voting information card.

If you are not planning to attend in person our Extraordinary General Meeting, proxies submitted by registered shareholders and street shareholders (whether by internet or by mailing a proxy card) must be received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on May 29, 2019 to ensure your representation at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Alternatively, you may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote in person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, completing the proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card will not deprive you of your right to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote your Common Shares in person. Please note, however, that if your Common Shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting in person, you must obtain from the record holder a “legal proxy” issued in your name and present your voting information card.

Q:          Do Netshoes’ executive officers and directors have any interests in the Merger Proposal?

A:            Yes. Our CEO and chairman of the Board of Directors, Marcio Kumruian, may have interests that differ from, or are in addition to, his interests as a shareholder in connection with the approval of the proposals at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Marcio Kumruian has entered into an employment agreement with Magazine Luiza to hold an employment position at Magazine Luiza upon completion of the Merger. His sister, Ms. Graciela Tanaka, our chief operating officer, has entered into a similar arrangement. Both have also agreed to a non-competition and non-solicitation agreement that survives for 30 months following termination of employment. For further information, see “ Summary—Interests of Certain Persons; Share Ownership of Netshoes Directors and Executive Officers. ” Mr. Kumruian also beneficially owns 12.5% of the Common Shares of the Company. Mr. Kumruian has separately contractually agreed with Magazine Luiza to vote his Common Shares in favor of the resolutions to be voted at our Extraordinary General Meeting.  On the advice of counsel, to avoid an actual or potential conflict of interest, Mr. Kumruian abstained and did not vote as a board member for the Merger Proposal.

Q:          Can I change my vote after I have signed and returned my proxy card or voting instruction card?

A:            Registered shareholders may revoke their proxy or change voting instructions before shares are voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting by submitting a written notice of revocation to Otávio Lyra (ir@netshoes.com and otavio.lyra@netshoes.com), the Company’s investor relations officer, or a duly executed proxy (via the Internet, mobile device or by returning a proxy card) bearing a later date (which must be received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on May 29, 2019) or by attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting in person. A shareholder owning Common Shares in street name may revoke or change voting instructions by contacting the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares or by obtaining a “legal proxy” from such institution, presenting your voting information card and voting in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting. 

5

Q:          What will happen if I abstain from voting or fail to vote on the proposal to authorize and approve the Merger Agreement and the Plan of Merger?

A:            If you abstain from voting, fail to cast your vote in person or by proxy or fail to give voting instructions to your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, your vote will not be included or counted in the determination of the number of Common Shares present and voting for purposes of determining whether such resolution has been passed; provided that if you are a holder of Common Shares and submit a signed proxy card without indicating how you wish to vote, the Common Shares represented by your proxy card will be voted by the persons named in the proxy card as our Board of Directors may recommend.

Q:          If I purchased my Common Shares after the Record Date, may I vote these shares at the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A:            No. A shareholder is not entitled to vote shares purchased after the Record Date because the shareholder was not the record holder of those shares on the Record Date. Only the holder as of the Record Date may vote shares.

Q:          What happens if I sell my Common Shares before the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A:            The Record Date for the Extraordinary General Meeting is earlier than the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting and the date that the Merger is expected to be completed. If you transfer your Common Shares after the Record Date but before the Extraordinary General Meeting, you will retain your right to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting, but will have transferred the right to receive the Merger Consideration with respect to such Common Shares. In order to receive the Merger Consideration, you must hold your Common Shares through the completion of the Merger.

Q:          Will the Merger Consideration paid to U.S. holders of Common Shares be subject to U.S. federal income tax?

A:            The receipt of the Merger Consideration by Netshoes shareholders that are U.S. Holders (as defined below) will be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For more details, see “ The Merger—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences .”

Q:          Will any proxy solicitors be used in connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting?

A:            Yes. To assist in the solicitation of proxies, the Company has engaged Georgeson LLC as its proxy solicitor.

Q:          What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

A:            You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this information statement or multiple proxy or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your Common Shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold Common Shares. If you are a holder of record and your Common Shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please submit each proxy card that you receive.

Q:          How can I obtain additional information about Netshoes?

A:            Our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and other SEC filings may be accessed on the Internet at www.sec.gov or on the investor relations page of Netshoes’ website at http://investor.netshoes.com.

DISSENTER RIGHTS

The following is a brief summary of the rights of holders of the Common Shares to dissent from the Merger and receive payment equal to the “fair value” of their shares (“ Dissenter Rights ”). This summary is not a complete statement of the law, and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of Section 238 of the Companies Law. If you are contemplating the possibility of dissenting from the Merger and exercising Dissenter Rights, you should carefully review the text of the Companies Law, particularly the procedural steps required to exercise your Dissenter Rights. These procedures are complex and you should consult your Cayman Islands legal counsel if you are considering exercising such rights. If you do not fully and precisely satisfy the procedural requirements of the Companies Law, you may lose your Dissenter Rights.

Requirements for Exercising Dissenter Rights

A registered shareholder of the Company is entitled to payment of the “fair value” of its, his or her Common Shares upon dissenting from the Merger in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Law.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Common Shares of a shareholder who validly exercises and does not withdraw or lose its Dissenter Rights from the Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Companies Law shall be surrendered and cancelled and cease to exist at the effective time of the Merger, but shall not be converted into or exchangeable for or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and each such dissenting shareholder shall be entitled only to payment of the “fair value” of such dissenting shares in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Law.

If any dissenting shareholder fails to validly exercise or has otherwise waived, effectively withdraws or loses his or her rights thereunder, then as of the later of the Effective Time, the occurrence of such event or a court of competent jurisdiction determining that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 238 of the Companies Law, the dissenting shareholder shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration (without any interest thereon).

We will give Magazine Luiza (i) prompt notice of any written notice of exercise of Dissenter Rights, attempted withdrawals of such Dissenter Rights, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable law that are received by the Company relating to Company shareholders’ exercise of Dissenter Rights and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to the exercise of Dissenter Rights under the Companies Law. The Company is not allowed to, without the prior written consent of Magazine Luiza, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any exercise of Dissenter Rights, offer to settle or settle any such Dissenter Rights or approve any withdrawal of any such Dissenter Rights .

The valid exercise of your Dissenter Rights will preclude the exercise of any other rights by virtue of holding Common Shares in connection with the Merger, other than the right to participate fully in proceedings to determine the “fair value” of shares held by you and to seek relief on the ground that the Merger is void or unlawful.

The Companies Law provides for a right of dissenting shareholders to be paid a payment of the “fair value” of their shares upon their dissenting to the Merger if they comply with the following procedure:

(a)               The dissenting shareholder must give written objection to the Merger to the Company before the vote on the Merger (which vote will be held at the Meeting).  Such objection must include a statement that the dissenting shareholder proposes to demand payment for his shares if the Merger is authorized by the vote;

(b)              Within 20 days following the date on which the Merger is duly approved by the shareholders, the Company must give written notice of the approval to each shareholder who made a written objection;

(c)               A dissenting shareholder must within 20 days following the date on which such notice is given by the Company, give the Company a written notice affirming his/her/its decision to dissent, stating: (i) his name and address; (ii) the number and classes of shares in respect of which he dissents (this must be all shares that is held by such shareholder in the Company); and (iii) a demand for payment of the “fair value” of his shares.  The dissenting shareholder will cease to have any rights of a shareholder in the Company upon the giving of such notice of dissent except the right to be paid the “fair value” of his shares (and the right to participate in court proceedings to determine the “fair value” of his shares and the right to institute proceedings on the grounds that the Merger is void or unlawful);

8

(d)              Within seven days following the date of the expiration of the period set out in paragraph (c) above or within seven days following the date on which the Plan of Merger is filed with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, whichever is later, the Company must make a written offer to each dissenting shareholder to purchase their shares at a price that the Company determines is the “fair value”, and if the Company and the shareholder agree upon a price within 30 days following the date on which the offer was made, the Company must pay the shareholder such amount; and

(e)               If the Company and the shareholder fail to agree upon a price within such 30 day period, within 20 days following the date on which such 30 day period expires, the Company shall (and any shareholder which has dissented to the Merger may) file a petition with the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the “Court”) to determine the “fair value” and such petition must be accompanied by a verified list of the names and addresses of the dissenting shareholders with whom agreements as to the “fair value” of their Common Shares have not been reached by the Company. The Company must serve a copy of such petition on the other parties.

At the hearing, the Court has the power to determine the “fair value” of the shares together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid by the Company upon the amount determined to be the “fair value”. Any dissenting shareholder whose name appears on the list filed by the Company may participate fully in all proceedings until the determination of “fair value” is reached.

The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances; and upon application of a dissenting shareholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any dissenting shareholder in connection with the proceeding, including reasonable attorney’s fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares that are the subject of the proceeding.

The above summary is not a complete statement of the law, and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of Section 238 of the Companies Law, a copy of which is attached as Annex E to this Information Statement. If you are contemplating the possibility of exercising your Dissenter Rights, you should carefully review the text of Annex E, particularly the procedural steps required to exercise Dissenter Rights.

The process of exercising Dissenter Rights is technical and complex. If you fail to comply strictly with the procedures set forth in Section 238, you may lose your Dissenter Rights. You should consult your Cayman Islands legal counsel without delay if you wish to exercise Dissenter Rights.

If you are considering dissenting, you should be aware that the “fair value” of your shares determined under Section 238 of the Companies Law could be more than, the same as, or less than the Merger Consideration, for each share that you would otherwise receive as consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement if you do not exercise Dissenting Rights with respect to your shares. In addition, in any proceedings for determination of the “fair value” of the shares, the Company and Magazine Luiza intend to assert that the Merger Consideration is equal to the “fair value” of each of your shares. You may also be responsible for some or all of the costs of any such proceedings, which are at the discretion of the Court.

Failure to vote your Common Shares, or a vote against the Merger Proposal will not alone enable any dissenting shareholders to exercise their Dissenter Rights.

You must send all notices to the Netshoes’ executive offices located at Rua Vergueiro 961, Liberdade, 01504-001 São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil .

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information included in this information statement, including the matters addressed under the caption titled “Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on page 23, you should consider carefully the following risk factors in determining how to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risks related to the Merger and you should read and consider the risk factors described under Part 1, Item 3.“Key Information—D. Risk Factors” of Netshoes’ Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, which Netshoes filed with the SEC on April 30, 2019, as well as the other risk factors discussed from time to time by Netshoes in reports to be filed with, or furnished to, the SEC, and which are incorporated by reference into this information statement.

Failure to complete the Merger could negatively impact our share price, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, that:

·         (i) the Special Resolutions set out in the notice of the Meeting must have been approved by shareholders of Netshoes representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of votes cast by the shareholders entitled to vote who are present in person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting and (ii) the Ordinary Resolutions set out in the notice of the Meeting must have been approved by shareholders of Netshoes representing at least the majority of votes cast by the shareholders entitled to vote who are present in person or by proxy at the Extraordinary General Meeting;

·         no governmental authority of competent jurisdiction has enacted, entered, promulgated or enforced any law, statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling injunction or other order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which prohibits, restrains or enjoins the consummation of the Merger; and

·         approval by Brazilian antitrust authorities.

In addition, each party’s obligation to complete the Merger is subject to the truthful and correctness of the other parties’ representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement (subject to certain materiality and knowledge qualifications), and the other parties’ compliance with their respective covenants and agreements in the Merger Agreement in all material respects.

No assurance can be given that each of the closing conditions will be satisfied. In addition, the Merger Agreement may be terminated under the circumstances set forth in the Merger Agreement, including by mutual decision of the parties thereto. If the closing conditions are not satisfied or waived in a timely manner and the Merger is delayed, payment of the Merger Consideration will also be delayed.

If the Merger is not completed (including in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated or if by July 31, 2019 the Merger is not deemed effective), our ongoing business will be materially adversely affected.  As indicated in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, we experienced net losses and significant cash outflows from cash used in operating activities in 2018, and our business performance and financial condition have faced increasing pressure since December 31, 2018.  We are currently engaged in preserving our cash, liquidity and financial position and obtaining access to alternative sources of capital necessary to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.  The Company has engaged financial and other advisors to assist it in that effort.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet our funding requirements and have the ability to gain continued access to short-term financing. If for any reason we are unable to continue as a going concern, this could have an impact on our ability to realize assets at their recognized values, and to settle liabilities in the ordinary course of business (including with suppliers and creditors) at the amounts stated in our audited consolidated financial statements, resulting in defaults in agreements with our creditors and suppliers and potentially additional defaults in the future, including as a result of cross-defaults. Most of our financing agreements are subject to termination in the event of default, and our indebtedness may be accelerated in the event of continuing default.

10

We also could be subject to litigation related to any failure to complete the Merger. If the Merger is not completed, these risks may materialize and may materially adversely affect the price of our Common Shares, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Our CEO and chairman of the Board of Directors has interests that may differ from the interests of our shareholders.

Our CEO and chairman of the Board of Directors, Marcio Kumruian, may have interests that differ from, or are in addition to, his interests as a shareholder in connection with the approval of the proposals at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Marcio Kumruian has entered into an employment agreement with Magazine Luiza to hold an employment position at Magazine Luiza upon completion of the Merger. His sister, Ms. Graciela Tanaka, our chief operating officer, has entered into a similar arrangement. Both have also agreed to a non-competition and non-solicitation agreement that survives for 30 months following termination of employment. For further information, see “ Summary—Interests of Certain Persons; Share Ownership of Netshoes Directors and Executive Officers. ” Mr. Kumruian also beneficially owns 12.5% of the Common Shares of the Company.  Mr. Kumruian has separately contractually agreed with Magazine Luiza to vote his Common Shares in favor of the resolutions to be voted at our Extraordinary General Meeting. On the advice of counsel, to avoid an actual or potential conflict of interest, Mr. Kumruian abstained and did not vote as a board member for the Merger Proposal.

The fact that there is a Merger pending could harm our business and results of operations.

While the Merger is pending, we are subject to a number of risks that may harm our business and results of operations, including:

·         the diversion of management and employee attention from our business may detract from our ability to operate efficiently, capitalize on new opportunities and commence new initiatives;

·         we may be unable to respond effectively to competitive pressures, industry developments and future opportunities;

·         we could be subject to costly litigation associated with the Merger;

·         our current and prospective employees may be uncertain about their future roles and relationships with Magazine Luiza during and following completion of the Merger, and this uncertainty may adversely affect our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel; and

·         the Merger Agreement contains certain covenants restricting the conduct of our business between the date of the Merger Agreement and the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms and (ii) the effective time, the waiver of which is subject to the consent of the other parties. These covenants may limit our freedom to operate our business in potentially adverse ways.

Our obligation to pay a termination fee under certain circumstances, the restrictions on our ability to solicit or engage in negotiations with respect to other acquisition proposals and our obligation to hold the Extraordinary General Meeting even if a superior proposal is presented may discourage other transactions that may be favorable to our shareholders.

Until the Merger is completed or the Merger Agreement is terminated, with limited exceptions, the Merger Agreement generally prohibits us from initiating, soliciting, facilitating or knowingly encouraging any inquiries with respect to, any acquisition inquiry or acquisition proposal, or executing or entering into any agreement in connection with any acquisition proposal. Even if a superior proposal (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) is presented, we are required to hold the Extraordinary General Meeting and submit the Merger Proposal for approval at the Extraordinary General Meeting. We may be required to pay to Magazine Luiza a termination fee equal to US$1,800,000.00 under certain circumstances set forth in the Merger Agreement.

11

We may be the target of securities class action and derivative lawsuits which could result in substantial costs and may delay or prevent the Merger from being completed.

Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger agreements. Even if the lawsuits are without merit, defending against these claims can result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment could result in monetary damages, which could have a negative impact on our liquidity and financial condition. Additionally, if a plaintiff is successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting completion of the Merger, then that injunction may delay or prevent the Merger from being completed, which may adversely affect our or, if the Merger is completed but delayed, the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations.

The Companies

Netshoes (Cayman) Limited
Rua Vergueiro 961, Liberdade
Zip Code 01504-001
City of São Paulo, State of São Paulo
Brazil

We were founded in January 2000 by Marcio Kumruian and Hagop Chabab as a single physical shoe store in São Paulo, Brazil. In 2007, we closed our brick-and-mortar stores and shifted to an online business to reach more customers across Brazil. We have also selectively introduced new product categories, maintaining our core strategy of focusing on product verticals with higher margins that have short replacement cycles and are easy to ship.

Since our launch, we have sold to more than 17.6 million customers across our sites (representing a 16.9% year-over-year growth from 2017), solidifying our position as one of the few scaled online retailers in Brazil and creating a foundation of audience, brand and capabilities on top of which we are building a digital ecosystem capable of delivering increasing and significant value to customers and partners in the future. Through our desktop and mobile websites and applications, which we refer to as our “sites,” we deliver our customers a convenient and intuitive online shopping experience across our two core brands, Netshoes and Zattini.

As indicated in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, we experienced net losses and significant cash outflows from cash used in operating activities in 2018, and our business performance and financial condition have faced increasing pressure since December 31, 2018.  We are currently engaged in preserving our cash, liquidity and financial position and obtaining access to alternative sources of capital necessary to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.  The Company has engaged financial and other advisors to assist it in that effort.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet our funding requirements and have the ability to gain continued access to short-term financing. If for any reason we are unable to continue as a going concern, this could have an impact on our ability to realize assets at their recognized values, and to settle liabilities in the ordinary course of business (including with suppliers and creditors) at the amounts stated in our audited consolidated financial statements, resulting in defaults in agreements with our creditors and suppliers and potentially additional defaults in the future, including as a result of cross-defaults. Most of our financing agreements are subject to termination in the event of default, and our indebtedness may be accelerated in the event of continuing default.

For further information about our business and operations, see our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 that can be accessed, free of charge, on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at http://investor.netshoes.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov .

Netshoes’ Reasons for Approval of the Merger; Recommendation of the Netshoes Board of Directors

After careful consideration, and after each director duly disclosed his interests in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (if any), including the Merger, as required by the memorandum and articles of association of the Company as amended to date, and by Cayman Islands law, Netshoes’ board of directors (the “ Board ” or our “ Board of Directors ”) has (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian):

·         determined that the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are in the best interests of, Netshoes and its shareholders as a whole;

·         determined to recommend that Netshoes’ shareholders approve the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and

·         unanimously approved (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Our Board of Directors recommends (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) that you vote FOR the approval of the Merger Proposal.

In reaching its decision to unanimously approve the Merger Proposal and to recommend that Netshoes shareholders vote to approve the Merger Proposal, our Board of Directors consulted with Netshoes’ management and Netshoes’ financial and legal advisors and considered a number of strategic, financial and other factors, as described under “ The Merger—Reasons for Approval of the Merger; Recommendation of the Board .”

If you are not voting in person, and if you direct the proxy holder to vote FOR any or all of the Merger Proposals, you may indicate in your proxy card if you would like to change such direction, without any further action, to vote AGAINST all resolutions if the Board of Directors announces, on or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, an adverse recommendation with respect to the Merger Proposal.  If no additional direction is made in your proxy card, the Common Shares in respect of which a proxy card is given will be voted in accordance with the directions made in your proxy card unless revoked in a timely manner.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to the Company

Opinion of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC

On April 29, 2019, at a meeting of the Board of Directors, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“ Goldman Sachs ”) rendered its oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of April 29, 2019 and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions set forth therein, the consideration of US$2.00 in cash per share of the Common Shares to be paid to the holders of Common Shares (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement, was fair from a financial point of view to such holders.

14

The full text of the written opinion of Goldman Sachs, dated as of April 29, 2019, which sets forth assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken in connection with the opinion, is attached as Annex C to this information statement. Goldman Sachs provided advisory services and its opinion for the information and assistance of the Board of Directors in connection with its consideration of the Merger. The Goldman Sachs opinion is not a recommendation as to how any holder of Common Shares should vote with respect to the Merger or any other matter. Pursuant to an engagement letter between the Company and Goldman Sachs, the Company has agreed to pay Goldman Sachs a transaction fee that, based on information available as of the date of the announcement of the Merger, is estimated to be approximately US$4 million, all of which becomes payable upon consummation of the Merger.

For more information, see the section entitled “ The Merger—Opinion of Financial Advisor ” and Annex C to this information statement.

Interests of Certain Persons; Share Ownership of Netshoes Directors and Executive Officers

When considering the recommendation by the Board of Directors (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) to vote FOR the Merger Proposal, you should be aware that executive officers and directors of Netshoes may have interests in the Merger that are different from, or in addition to, your interests, including:

·         Relevant Minority Shareholding of the CEO and Chairman of the Board : Mr. Kumruian beneficially owns 12.5% of the Common Shares.  Mr. Kumruian has separately contractually agreed with Magazine Luiza to vote his Common Shares in favor of the resolutions to be voted at our Extraordinary General Meeting.  For further information, see “ Voting and Support Agreements. ” On the advice of counsel, to avoid an actual or potential conflict of interest, Mr. Kumruian abstained and did not vote as a board member for the Merger Proposal;

·         Retention Agreements .  On the date of the execution of the Merger Agreement, Mr. Kumruian, current chairman and chief executive officer of Netshoes, and his sister, Ms. Graciela Tanaka, our chief operating officer, have entered into employment agreements with Magazine Luiza to hold employment positions at Magazine Luiza upon completion of the Merger for an initial period of twelve (12) months. Both have also agreed to a non-competition and non-solicitation agreement that survives for 30 months following termination of employment with Magazine Luiza. As compensation for such non-competition and non-solicitation agreements, Magazine Luiza agreed to grant shares to each of Mr. Kumruian and Ms. Tanaka upon termination of their employment agreements in the event that certain conditions to be agreed by the parties are met;

·         Acceleration of Vesting of Unvested Share Options; Value Attributable to Outstanding Vested and Unvested Share Options. Each outstanding and unexercised share option to purchase one Common Share of Netshoes issued under the Company’s 2012 Share Plan (including held by certain of our directors and executive officers), whether or not then vested, with a per share exercise price less than US$2.00, shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be accelerated and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to (i) US$2.00 less (ii) the exercise price of such share option, multiplied by the number of Common Shares underlying such share option, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes; and

·         Indemnification and Insurance. Our executive officers and directors will benefit from the indemnification provisions contained in the Merger Agreement with respect to their acts or omissions as executive officers or directors of Netshoes at or prior to the Effective Time of the Merger. In accordance with the Merger Agreement and subject to the approval of the Merger Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting, Netshoes intends to acquire run-off directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for six (6) years after the effective time of the Merger. See “ The Merger—Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance .”

15

As of the Record Date for the Extraordinary General Meeting, the directors and executive officers of Netshoes, as a group, beneficially owned in the aggregate approximately 13.2% of the outstanding Common Shares, including 12.5% beneficially owned by our CEO and Chairman, Mr. Kumruian.

See “ The Merger—Effect of the Merger on the Company’s 2012 Share Plan ” and “ Share Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners, Directors and Executive Officers of Netshoes. ”

The Merger Agreement

The form of Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to this document. You should read the Merger Agreement carefully in its entirety. It is the most important legal document governing the Merger. See “ The Merger Agreement. ”

Structure of the Merger

The Merger is being effected as a Merger between Netshoes and Merging Company under the Companies Law. In the Merger, Merging Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza, will be merged with and into Netshoes. Netshoes will be the Surviving Company of the Merger and will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza. See “ The Merger Agreement— The Merger .”

Consideration

If the Merger is completed, each holder of Common Shares at the Effective Time of the Merger will be entitled to receive US$2.00 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. See “ The Merger— Effects of the Merger on Our Common shares ,” and “ The Merger Agreement—The Merger Consideration and the Conversion of Share Capital. ”

Treatment of Company’s Options under its 2012 Share Plan

As of the Effective Time of the Merger, the Company’s 2012 Share Plan will terminate and all rights under any provision of any other plan, program or arrangement providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest in respect of the share capital of Netshoes or its subsidiaries will be cancelled.

At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding and unexercised share option (including held by certain of our directors and executives) to purchase one Common Share of Netshoes, whether or not then vested, with a per share exercise price less than US$2.00 (each, a “cashed-out option”), shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to US$2.00 less the exercise price of such cashed-out option, multiplied by the number of Common Shares underlying such cashed-out option (the “option consideration”). As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement) but in no event later than the fifth business day immediately after the Effective Time , the Surviving Company shall pay (or cause to be paid on its behalf) to each holder of a cashed-out option, through the applicable entity’s payroll system, the aggregate option consideration (without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes) payable to such holder of a cashed-out option. If the exercise price per Common Share subject to any option is equal to or greater than US$2.00, such option shall be cancelled without payment of any consideration.

Termination Fee; Expenses

Netshoes is required to pay to Magazine Luiza a termination fee of US$1,800,000 if the Merger Agreement is terminated under any of the following circumstances:

·         if the Merger Agreement is terminated by either Magazine Luiza or Netshoes because the Merger is not consummated until the outside date or because the shareholder approval has not been obtained, or if the Merger Agreement is terminated by Magazine Luiza because of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by Netshoes, and (a) prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting to approve the Merger Agreement, an acquisition proposal shall have been made directly to the Netshoes’ shareholders, or an acquisition proposal shall have otherwise become publicly known and (b) within 12 months after such termination Netshoes enters into a definitive agreement to effect such acquisition proposal and such definitive agreement is subsequently completed (regardless of whether such consummation occurs within such twelve-month period).

All fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated, except as described above. Expenses incurred in connection with the filing, printing and mailing of this information statement shall be shared equally by Magazine Luiza and Netshoes.

See “ The Merger Agreement—Termination Fee; Expenses. ”

Dissenter Rights

Holders of the Common Shares who exercise their rights in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Law will have the right to receive payment of the “fair value” of their Common Shares if the Merger is completed, but only if they deliver to the Company, before the vote to authorize and approve the Merger is taken at the Extraordinary General Meeting, a written objection to the Merger and subsequently comply with all procedures and requirements of Section 238 of the Companies Law. A copy of Section 238 of the Companies Law is attached as Annex E to this information statement. The “fair value” of Common Shares determined under the Companies Law could be more than, the same as, or less than the Merger Consideration dissenting shareholders would otherwise receive. These procedures are complex and you should consult your Cayman Islands legal counsel if you intend to exercise such rights. If you do not fully and precisely satisfy the procedural requirements of the Companies Law, you will lose your dissenter rights (as described under the caption “ Dissenter Rights ” beginning on page 8).

The receipt by a U.S. Holder (as defined below) of cash in exchange for Common Shares in connection with the Merger will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

We refer to these proposals collectively as the “ Merger Proposal .”

We currently know of no other business to be transacted at the Extraordinary General Meeting, other than those set forth in this information statement; but, if any other matter is properly presented at the Meeting, including voting on the adjournment or postponement of the Extraordinary General Meeting, the persons named in the proxy card will vote the Common Shares they represent in their discretion, or if so instructed in the proxy card, as our Board of Directors may recommend.

Record Date, Share Ownership, Shareholders entitled to vote and Quorum

Only holders of Common Shares of record at the close of business on May 7, 2019, Eastern time (the “ Record Date ”) are entitled to attend and vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting and any adjourned meeting thereof.

In addition, shareholders who, as of the Record Date, held Common Shares through a bank, broker or other nominee which is a shareholder of record of Netshoes or which appears in the participant list of a securities depository, are considered to be beneficial owners of shares held in street name. These proxy materials are being forwarded to beneficial owners by their bank, broker or other nominee that is considered the holder of record. Beneficial owners have the right to direct how their shares should be voted and are also invited to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting, but may not actually vote their shares in person at the Meeting unless obtaining, prior to the meeting, a legal proxy from such bank, broker or other nominee that authorizes them to vote their shares.

As of the close of business on the Record Date, 31,056,244 Common Shares were issued and outstanding. One or more shareholders holding in aggregate not less than one-third (1/3) in nominal or par value of the total issued voting shares in the Company entitled to vote upon the business to be transacted shall constitute a quorum at the Extraordinary General Meeting. In the absence of the requisite quorum, the Meeting shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place, unless otherwise determined by the directors of the Company in accordance with the Companies Law, Netshoes’ Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Merger agreement.

Certain shareholders holding an aggregate of 47.9% of the Common Shares have agreed with Magazine Luiza to attend the Meeting in person or by proxy and vote in favor of the Merger Proposal. As a result, it is expected that the above mentioned quorum will be achieved.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

After careful consideration, and after each director duly disclosed his interests in the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (if any), including the Merger, as required by the memorandum and articles of association of the Company as amended to date, and by Cayman Islands law, Netshoes’ board of directors (the “ Boar d” or our “ Board of Directors ”) has (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian):

·         determined that the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are in the best interests of, Netshoes and its shareholders as a whole;

·         determined to recommend that Netshoes’ shareholders approve the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and

·         unanimously approved (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) the Merger Agreement, the Plan of Merger, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Our Board of Directors recommends (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) that you vote FOR the approval of the Merger Proposal.

In reaching its decision to unanimously approve the Merger Proposal and to recommend that Netshoes shareholders vote to approve the Merger Proposal, our Board of Directors consulted with Netshoes’ management and Netshoes’ financial and legal advisors and considered a number of strategic, financial and other factors, as described under “ The Merger—Reasons for Approval of the Merger; Recommendation of the Board .”

26

If you are not voting in person, and if you direct the proxy holder to vote FOR any or all of the Merger Proposals, you may indicate in your proxy card if you would like to change such direction, without any further action, to vote AGAINST all resolutions if the Board of Directors announces, on or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, an adverse recommendation with respect to the Merger Proposal.  If no additional direction is made in your proxy card, the Common Shares in respect of which a proxy card is given will be voted in accordance with the directions made in your proxy card unless revoked in a timely manner.

Voting

The manner in which your shares may be voted depends on how your shares are held. If you own shares of record, meaning that your shares are represented in book-entry form as recorded in the register of members of the Company in your name so that you appear as a shareholder on the records of Computershare (i.e., you are a registered shareholder), our stock transfer agent, this information statement, the notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and the proxy card will be available to you at www.investorvote.com/NETS by inserting the control number on the proxy card to be provided to you by the Company. You may provide voting instructions by internet, mobile device or (if you have received paper copies of our proxy materials) by returning a proxy card. You also may attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote in person. If you own Common Shares of record and you do not vote by proxy or in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting, your shares will not be voted.

If you own shares in street name (i.e., you are street shareholder), meaning that your shares are held by a bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee, you are then considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name,” and as a result, this information statement, the notice of Extraordinary General Meeting and the proxy card will be available to you at www.proxyvote.com by inserting the control number on the instructions to be provided to you by your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares if your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee supports www.proxyvote.com and has agreed to provide you with a control number for this purpose. You may provide voting instructions by Internet, mobile device or (if you have received paper copies of proxy materials through your bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee) by returning a voting instruction form received from that institution. If you own Common Shares in street name and attend the Extraordinary General Meeting, you must obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee that holds your shares in order to vote your shares at the meeting and present your voting information card.

Banks, brokers and other nominees who hold shares in “street name” for clients typically have authority to vote on “routine” proposals even when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners, absent specific instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares to the contrary. However, banks, brokers and other nominees are not allowed to exercise their voting discretion with respect to the approval of non-routine matters, such as adoption and approval of the Merger. If a beneficial owner does not provide instructions to his, her or its bank, broker or other nominee, the shares will not be voted (referred to as a “broker non-vote”). However, broker non-votes and abstentions will be treated as neither a vote “for” nor “against” any matter, although they will be counted as present in determining whether a quorum is present.

Only Common Shares that are voted on the Merger Proposal will be counted toward determining whether such proposal is approved. Common shares present at the extraordinary general meeting that are not voted on, or Common Shares present by proxy where their holder properly withheld authority to vote on such proposal (including broker non-votes), will not be counted in determining whether such proposal is approved by shareholders.

Each Common Share is entitled to one vote on the Merger Proposal or any other item that comes before the Extraordinary General Meeting, If two or more persons are registered as joint holders of any common share, the right to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting will be conferred upon each of such joint owners, but the right to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting and/or the right to be counted as part of the quorum thereat will be conferred exclusively upon the more senior among the joint holders attending the Extraordinary General Meeting, in person or by proxy. For this purpose, seniority will be determined by the order in which the names appear in Netshoes’ shareholder register.

As of the date hereof, the Board of Directors of the Company recommends voting in favor of the Merger Proposal.  If you direct the proxy holder to vote FOR any or all of the Merger Proposals, you may indicate in your proxy card if you would like to change such direction, without any further action, to vote AGAINST all resolutions if the Board of Directors announces, on or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, an adverse recommendation with respect to the Merger Proposal.  If no additional direction is made in your proxy card, the Common Shares in respect of which a proxy card is given will be voted in accordance with the directions made in your proxy card unless revoked in a timely manner as further discussed below.

27

Voting Results

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Extraordinary General Meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by Netshoes’ corporate secretary based on the information provided by Netshoes’ transfer agent and will be published following the extraordinary general meeting on a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K.

Revoking or Changing Your Vote

Registered shareholders may revoke their proxy or change voting instructions before shares are voted at the Extraordinary General Meeting by submitting a written notice of revocation to Otávio Lyra (ir@netshoes.com and otavio.lyra@netshoes.com), the Company’s investor relations officer, or a duly executed proxy (via the Internet, mobile device or by returning a proxy card) bearing a later date (which must be received by the Company no later than the date set forth below) or by attending the Extraordinary General Meeting and voting in person. A shareholder owning Common Shares in street name may revoke or change voting instructions by contacting the bank, brokerage firm, or other nominee holding the shares or by obtaining a legal proxy from such institution and voting in person at the Extraordinary General Meeting. 

If you are not planning to attend in person our Extraordinary General Meeting, to ensure your representation at our Extraordinary General Meeting, revocation of proxies submitted by registered shareholders and street shareholders (whether by internet or by mailing a proxy card) must be received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on May 29, 2019. Notwithstanding the foregoing, completing the proxy card in accordance with the instructions set forth on the proxy card will not deprive you of your right to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and vote your Common Shares in person. Please note, however, that if your Common Shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting in person, you must obtain from the record holder a “legal proxy” issued in your name and present your voting information card.

Required Vote for the Merger Proposal

Provided that a quorum is present, the adoption and approval of the Merger Proposal at the Extraordinary General Meeting requires (i) the affirmative vote of holders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, at the meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) for the Special Resolutions and (ii) the affirmative vote of holders representing at least the majority of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, at the meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) for the Ordinary Resolutions, in each case, excluding abstentions and broker non-votes.

Share Ownership of Netshoes Directors and Executive Officers

As of the record date for the Extraordinary General Meeting, directors and executive officers of Netshoes beneficially owned, in the aggregate, approximately 13.2% of the Common Shares outstanding. Some of those shares are subject to the voting and support agreement described further below in this information statement pursuant to which certain of our shareholders have agreed to vote in favor of the Merger Proposal.

Solicitation of Proxies

Proxies are being solicited by the Company. Certain of the Company’s officers, directors, employees and agents may solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile, electronic mail or other personal contact. However, such parties will not receive additional compensation therefor. The Company and Magazine Luiza will bear the cost of the solicitation of proxies, including the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing the proxy materials. In connection with the proxy solicitation, the Company has engaged Georgeson LLC to act as proxy solicitor for the Merger Proposal.

THE COMPANIES

Netshoes (Cayman) Limited

We were founded in January 2000 when our founders Marcio Kumruian and Hagop Chabab opened a physical shoe store in São Paulo, Brazil, and  our  business has transformed substantially since then. In 2007, we closed our brick-and-mortar retail stores, shifted our focus to eCommerce retail and launched Netshoes.com, our online store specialized in sports and active lifestyle goods.

Our principal executive office is located at Rua Vergueiro 961, Liberdade, Zip Code 01504-001, in the city of São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil. We were incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability. Our registered office is located at Floor 4, Willow House, Cricket Square, Grand Cayman, KY1-9010, Cayman Islands. The telephone number of our investor relations department is +55 (11) 3028-8298. Our corporate investor relations website can be found at  http://investor.netshoes.com . Information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference into this information statement, and you should not consider information contained on our website to be part of this information statement or in deciding whether to invest in our Common Shares.

Since our launch, we have sold to more than 17.6 million customers across our sites (representing a 16.9% year-over-year growth from 2017), solidifying our position as one of the few scaled online retailers in Brazil and creating a foundation of audience, brand and capabilities on top of which we are building a digital ecosystem capable of delivering increasing and significant value to customers and partners in the future. Through our desktop and mobile websites and applications, which we refer to as our “sites,” we deliver our customers a convenient and intuitive online shopping experience across our two core brands, Netshoes and Zattini.

As indicated in our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018, we experienced net losses and significant cash outflows from cash used in operating activities in 2018, and our business performance and financial condition have faced increasing pressure since December 31, 2018.  We are currently engaged in preserving our cash, liquidity and financial position and obtaining access to alternative sources of capital necessary to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.  The Company has engaged financial and other advisors to assist it in that effort.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet our funding requirements and have the ability to gain continued access to short-term financing. If for any reason we are unable to continue as a going concern, this could have an impact on our ability to realize assets at their recognized values, and to settle liabilities in the ordinary course of business (including with suppliers and creditors) at the amounts stated in our audited consolidated financial statements, resulting in defaults in agreements with our creditors and suppliers and potentially additional defaults in the future, including as a result of cross-defaults. Most of our financing agreements are subject to termination in the event of default, and our indebtedness may be accelerated in the event of continuing default.

For further information about our business and operations, see our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 that can be accessed, free of charge, on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at http://investor.netshoes.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov .

THE MERGER

Background of the Merger

The following chronology summarizes the key events that led to the signing of the Merger Agreement. The following chronology does not relate every conversation or meeting among the Board of Directors, members of Company management or the Company’s representatives and other parties but only the most significant of those interactions.

As part of the Company’s ongoing evaluation of its long-term strategic goals and plans, our Board of Directors, together with our senior management, periodically reviewed and considered various strategic and other opportunities available to Netshoes to preserve and enhance shareholder value.  The Board of Directors frequently considered the Company’s performance, competitive dynamics, macroeconomic developments, industry trends and other conditions affecting our business and discussed various possible strategies and courses of action, as our Board of Directors and senior management recognized the challenges of continuing to execute our strategy as a standalone online retailer, operating in a very competitive market.

Since the Company’s initial public offering of Common Shares in April 2017, the stock price of the Company has consistently underperformed market expectations. These results are indicative of the difficulties faced by online retailers in Brazil, including high working capital costs, increased online competition, and Brazilian macroeconomic conditions, among other factors. In May 2018, certain members of the Netshoes management team and Board of Directors were approached by third parties expressing preliminary interest in exploring a strategic transaction with the Company. In the same period, these overtures were brought to the attention of the Board of Directors, which decided to begin a process to evaluate the potential alternatives for Netshoes. These possibilities, the Board of Directors concluded, would require a thorough analysis of the Company’s historical and projected financial performance, growth prospects and value creation on a standalone basis.

In August 2018, the Board of Directors established a special committee comprised of Frederico Brito and Ricardo Knoepfelmacher, each a member of the Board of Directors, to examine and provide recommendations regarding strategic alternatives including a possible merger, business combination or similar transaction involving the Company as well as to engage third parties regarding any potential transaction. Marcio Kumrian, the CEO of Netshoes, also participated in the meetings of the special committee.

The Board of Directors engaged Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, Campbells and Demarest Advogados to provide legal advice, in relation to the laws of the United States, the Cayman Islands and Brazil, respectively. The Board of Directors engaged Goldman Sachs as the Company’s exclusive financial advisor on August 7, 2018. In August 2018, as directed by the Board of Directors, representatives of Goldman Sachs contacted nine potential bidders, including Magazine Luiza, “ Party A ”, “ Party B ” and “ Party C ”, to determine interest in exploring a potential transaction with the Company. Initially, five of the potential bidders, including Party A and Party B,  executed non-disclosure agreements with the Company and attended meetings with the management of the Company. Each of Party A and Party B submitted preliminary indications of interest in writing on September 28, 2019 and October 8, 2019, respectively and Party C orally communicated potential interest in a transaction. Magazine Luiza declined to participate at the outset of the process. The process, including due diligence and management meetings, continued to unfold over the course of the period from September 2018 until February 2019.   

In early 2019, Party A continued to engage and indicate interest in the process. On January 11, 2019 and on January 15, 2019, the Board of Directors received proposals from Party A. After considering the material contract points with the consultation of the Company’s legal advisors and representatives of Goldman Sachs, the Board of Directors rejected each of Party A’s proposals as unacceptable in view of significant structural issues in the context of a public company transaction.

In parallel, the Board of Directors also formed a turnaround committee to assess the Company’s strategy and prospects as a standalone business.

At the Board of Directors’ instruction, the Company focused on developing and implementing a turnaround strategy and believed that it had the resources to a path forward to eventual profitability.  In connection with this turnaround process,  the Company engaged reputable consulting firms who assisted it in the implementation of, among other measures, two important operational improvement programs: (i) a zero-based budgeting program, which identified more that R$25 million in potential cost-saving measures initiatives for fiscal year 2019 and (ii) a commercial improvement program, which identified significant opportunities to improve product margins.

32

In the course of the preparation of the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, management of the Company became aware that the Company’s results of operation and financial condition, which continued to deteriorate, caused a significant weakening of the Company’s working capital position, and Company took several steps to understand the exact dimension of the cash shortfall. On March 21, 2019, at a meeting of the Board of Directors, these new developments were brought to the Board of Directors’ attention by the management of the Company, particularly the worse-than-expected deterioration of the liquidity position of the Company.  The Board of Directors promptly requested the Company’s chief executive officer and other members of management to take a number of actions in response to these developments, including retention of professionals to assess the Company’s cash position and help to institute cash preservation strategies, evaluation of potential transactions to enhance liquidity and to reactivate the sale process of Netshoes to provide options for the Board of Director’s analysis and consideration. 

On March 21, 2019, the Board of Directors instructed Goldman Sachs to engage with Magazine Luiza, who had expressed interest to Goldman Sachs to assess whether it had any interest in a potential transaction with the Company, while continuing to advance as to a potential transaction with Party A. On March 21, 2019, Magazine Luiza indicated interest and executed a confidentiality agreement with the Company and on March 23, 2019, representatives of Magazine Luiza met with management of the Company. On March 27, 2019, the Company held a management meeting with Party A after. Party A continued to express interest in acquiring the Company.

On March 29, 2019, Magazine Luiza communicated a non-binding offer to acquire the Company at a price of US$2.00 per Common Share, subject to a number of contingencies, including that the Company meet certain financial projections, post-closing purchase price adjustments and completion of due diligence. On March 30, 2019, representatives of the Company reviewed Magazine Luiza’s proposed bid with the Board of Directors. On April 1, 2019, at the direction of the Board of Directors, a representative of Goldman Sachs communicated to Magazine Luiza that the contingencies, post-closing purchase price adjustments and other closing conditions included in Magazine Luiza’s initial bid were not acceptable.

On April 1, 2019, Netshoes received a non-binding offer from a Party A with a nominal value of US$2.00 per Common Share, but subject to a number of significant purchase price adjustments, which the Board of Directors reviewed at a meeting on April 2, 2019.

On April 9, 2019, several media sources in the Brazilian and international press reported that the Company was seeking a buyer and had received interest from Party A and Magazine Luiza.  The stock market reacted positively to these media reports and our stock closed at US$2.49 per Common Share on April 9, 2019.

In response to the media reports, on April 10, 2019, each of Party A and Magazine Luiza, both public companies in Brazil, issued a press release and confirmed that it was considering a potential transaction with the Company.

Following these announcements on April 10, 2019, representatives of Magazine Luiza informed representatives of Goldman Sachs that they would require exclusivity as a condition to proceeding with the proposed transaction.

On April 11, representatives of Party C contacted representatives of Goldman Sachs to indicate that they may be interested in a potential transaction with the Company. At the instruction of the Board of Directors, Goldman Sachs held a call with Party C to provide an update on the Company and the and the strategic review process and also shared updated management materials.

On April 11, 2019, during a Board of Directors meeting, the Board of Directors considered the two bids received from Party A and Magazine Luiza, including which of the two parties was most likely to proceed with a transaction on a timely basis. Taking into account the totality of the circumstances, the Board of Directors approved entering into an exclusivity agreement with Magazine Luiza, which provided for a 16-day exclusivity period. During the exclusivity period, representatives of the Company and Magazine Luiza continued to negotiate outstanding issues in the draft Merger Agreement and exchanged drafts of the Merger Agreement and other transaction documents. In addition, the Board of Directors continued to evaluate the liquidity position of the Company and its prospects based on updated Company’s projections from the management of the Company.

33

On April 24, 2019, the financial advisor of Magazine Luiza verbally communicated to a representative of Goldman Sachs a bid price US$1.50 per Common Share without any contingencies. On April 24, 2019, the Board of Directors discussed Magazine Luiza revised bid of US$1.50 per Common Share and directed for representatives of Goldman Sachs and the Company’s chief executive officer to notify Magazine Luiza’s financial advisor that the proposed price reduction would not be acceptable

On April 25, 2019, at the direction of the Board of Directors, representatives of Goldman Sachs called Magazine Luiza’s financial advisors to advise them that the price of US$1.50 per Common Shares was not acceptable to the Board of Directors. On April 25, 2019, following a discussion between the Company’s CEO and the CEO of Magazine Luiza during which the Company’s CEO reiterated that US$1.50 per Common Share was not an acceptable price, Magazine Luiza increased its offer to US$2.00 per Common Share without the incremental contingencies it had proposed on March 29, 2019.

On April 28, 2019, the Board of Directors held a telephonic meeting. Also present were representatives of the Company’s legal counsel and Goldman Sachs. At the meeting, the Board of Directors received presentations from its legal advisors as to the Merger Agreement, its fiduciary obligations and the sale process and received a presentation from Goldman Sachs on the financial analysis of the US$2.00 in cash per Common Share proposed to be paid to the holders of Common Shares (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Following the Board of Directors meeting on April 28, 2019, each of the Company and Magazine Luiza and their respective legal counsels negotiated the few remaining open issues and finalized drafts of the Merger Agreement and other transaction documents.

On April 29, 2019, the Board of Directors held a telephonic meeting. Also present were representatives of the Company’s legal counsel and representatives of Goldman Sachs.  At the meeting, the Board of Directors was updated on the finalization of the Merger Agreement, and representatives of Goldman Sachs delivered Goldman Sachs’ oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of April 29, 2019 and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions set forth therein, the US$2.00 in cash per Common Share to be paid to the holders of Common Shares (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement, was fair from a financial point of view to such holders. For a detailed discussion of Goldman Sachs’ opinion, please see below under the caption “ Opinion of Financial Advisor. ”

On April 29, 2019, the parties executed the Merger Agreement.  On April 29, 2019, following the market close on the NYSE, the Company issued a press release announcing the execution of the Merger Agreement. Concurrently with announcement of the Merger, Netshoes released earnings results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

Reasons for Approval of the Merger; Recommendation of the Board

In evaluating the financial and contractual terms of the Merger and the Merger Agreement, the Board of Directors consulted with members of its senior management team, Goldman Sachs, its financial advisor, and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, Campbells and Demarest Advogados, its outside legal counsel, and assessed various matters relevant to its decision. In reaching its decision to approve the Merger, the Merger Agreement, and to recommend that Netshoes’ shareholders approve the Merger and the Merger Agreement, the Board of Directors considered a significant amount of information and a wide variety of factors, including the following:

·      the Board’s familiarity with, and information provided by the Company’s management as to, the business, financial condition, results of operations, current business strategy and future prospects of the Company, as well as the risks involved in achieving those prospects and objectives under current industry and market conditions, the nature of the markets in which the Company operates and the Company’s position in such markets;

·      recent developments in the industry in which the Company operates and the impact of such developments on the business and prospects of the Company, including the continuing challenging business environment;

·      the continuing deterioration of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company, and recent and unforeseen developments identified in March 2019 that indicated a higher cash burn and liquidity constraints;

34

·      in light of the financial position of Magazine Luiza and Merging Company, no reasonable concern was verified that as a result of the Merger the Surviving Company would not be able to fulfill the obligations of the Company to its creditors;

·      extended consideration of strategic alternatives for the Company, including discussions with, and inquiries of, a number of other potential buyers and that the Company actively sought proposals from several other parties;

·      the historical market prices and trading information for the Company’s shares, including the continuing depreciation of the stock price since the Company’s initial public offering of Common Shares in April 2017;

·      the possible alternatives to the Merger, including the prospects of continuing to operate the Company as an independent entity and the risks and uncertainties associated with such alternatives, including the risks associated with the Company’s ability to meet its projections for future results of operations and the costs and challenges associated with being a standalone publicly traded company, as compared to the certainty of realizing in cash a fair value for the Company’s shareholders through the Merger;

·      the financial and other terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement as reviewed by the Board of Directors and the fact that such terms and conditions were the product of arm’s-length negotiations between the parties;

·      certain terms of the Merger Agreement and related agreements, including:

o    the limited number and nature of the conditions to Magazine Luiza’s obligation to consummate the Merger;

o    the right of the Board of Directors to change its recommendation under certain circumstances, subject to the payment of a fixed termination fee and expenses;

o     no financing condition;

o     the Company’s right to specific performance to cause Magazine Luiza to consummate the Merger, subject to certain conditions; and

o    the willingness of certain shareholder(s) of the Company to support and to vote in favor of the Merger;

·      that the Merger Consideration is  cash, allowing the Company’s shareholders to immediately realize value for their investment, while also providing such shareholders certainty of value for their shares, while eliminating the effect of long-term business and execution risk to shareholders;

·      risks and costs to the Company if the Merger is not consummated;

·      that on April 29, 2019, at a meeting of the Board of Directors, Goldman Sachs rendered its oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of April 29, 2019 and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions, the Merger Consideration to be paid to the holders of Common Shares (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement, was fair from a financial point of view, to such holders, as more fully described below in the section entitled “ The Merger—Opinion of Financial Advisor;”

35

·      the financial resources and industry experience of Magazine Luiza and its affiliates; and

·      the fact that the Merger Agreement is required to be submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval, which allows for an informed vote by the Company’s shareholders on the merits of the Merger.

Recommendation

Netshoes Board of Directors unanimously recommends (with the abstention of Mr. Marcio Kumruian) that you vote FOR the proposal to approve the Merger Agreement, the Merger, the Merger Consideration, and all other transactions and arrangements contemplated under the Merger Agreement.

If you are not voting in person, and if you direct the proxy holder to vote FOR any or all of the Merger Proposals, you may indicate in your proxy card if you would like to change such direction, without any further action, to vote AGAINST all resolutions if the Board of Directors announces, on or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting, an adverse recommendation with respect to the Merger Proposal.  If no additional direction is made in your proxy card, the Common Shares in respect of which a proxy card is given will be voted in accordance with the directions made in your proxy card unless revoked in a timely manner.

Opinion of Financial Advisor

Opinion of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC

On April 29, 2019, at a meeting of the Board of Directors, Goldman Sachs rendered its oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of April 29, 2019 and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions set forth therein, the Merger Consideration to be paid to the holders of Common Shares (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement, was fair from a financial point of view to such holders.

THE FULL TEXT OF THE WRITTEN OPINION OF GOLDMAN SACHS, DATED APRIL 29, 2019, WHICH SETS FORTH ASSUMPTIONS MADE, PROCEDURES FOLLOWED, MATTERS CONSIDERED AND LIMITATIONS ON THE REVIEW UNDERTAKEN IN CONNECTION WITH THE OPINION, IS ATTACHED AS ANNEX C TO THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT. GOLDMAN SACHS PROVIDED ADVISORY SERVICES AND ITS OPINION FOR THE INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN CONNECTION WITH ITS CONSIDERATION OF THE MERGER. THE GOLDMAN SACHS OPINION IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION AS TO HOW ANY HOLDER OF THE SHARES OF COMPANY COMMON STOCK SHOULD VOTE WITH RESPECT TO THE MERGER OR ANY OTHER MATTER.

In connection with rendering the opinion described above and performing its related financial analyses, Goldman Sachs reviewed, among other things:

·         the Merger Agreement;

·         annual reports to shareholders and Annual Reports on Form 20-F of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017;

·         certain audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, that included Note 1.4 contained therein;

·         the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1, including the prospectus contained therein dated as of April 11, 2017 relating to an initial public offering of Common Shares;

36

·         certain interim reports to shareholders;

·         certain other communications from the Company to its shareholders;

·         certain publicly available research analyst reports for the Company;

·         certain internal financial analyses for the Company and the Company Projections, prepared by the management of the Company, as approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by the Board of Directors (collectively, the “ Company Financial Projections ”); and

·         certain analyses prepared by the management of the Company related to the expected utilization of certain net operating loss carryforwards, as approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by the Board of Directors (the “ NOL Estimates ”).

Goldman Sachs also held discussions with members of the senior management of the Company regarding their assessment of the past and current business operations, financial condition and future prospects of the Company; reviewed the reported price and trading activity for the Common Shares; compared certain financial and stock market information for the Company with similar information for certain other companies the securities of which are publicly traded; reviewed the financial terms of certain recent business combinations in the global technology industry; and performed such other studies and analyses, and considered such other factors, as it deemed appropriate.

For purposes of rendering its opinion, Goldman Sachs, with the consent of the Company, relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial, legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and other information provided to, discussed with or reviewed by, it, without assuming any responsibility for independent verification thereof. In that regard, Goldman Sachs assumed with the consent of the Company that the Company Financial Projections and the NOL Estimates were reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of the management of the Company. Goldman Sachs did not make an independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets and liabilities (including any contingent, derivative or other off-balance-sheet assets and liabilities) of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and it was not furnished with any such evaluation or appraisal. Goldman Sachs assumed that all governmental, regulatory or other consents and approvals necessary for the consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be obtained without any adverse effect on the expected benefits of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement in any way meaningful to its analysis. Goldman Sachs has also assumed that the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be consummated on the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement, without the waiver or modification of any term or condition the effect of which would be in any way meaningful to its analysis.

Goldman Sachs’ opinion does not address the underlying business decision of the Company to engage in, or the relative merits of, the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement as compared to any strategic alternatives that may be available to the Company; nor does it address any legal, regulatory, tax or accounting matters. Goldman Sachs’ opinion addresses only the fairness from a financial point of view, as of the date of the written opinion, of the Merger Consideration to be paid to the holders (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Goldman Sachs’ opinion does not express any view on, and does not address, any other term or aspect of the Merger Agreement or the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any term or aspect of any other agreement or instrument contemplated by the Merger Agreement or entered into or amended in connection with the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including, the fairness of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement to, or any consideration received in connection therewith by, the holders of any other class of securities, creditors, or other constituencies of the Company; nor as to the fairness of the amount or nature of any compensation to be paid or payable to any of the officers, directors or employees of the Company, or class of such persons, in connection with the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, whether relative to the Merger Consideration to be paid to the holders (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement or otherwise. Goldman Sachs’ opinion does not express any opinion as to the impact of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement on the solvency or viability of the Company or Magazine Luiza S.A. or the ability of the Company or Magazine Luiza to pay their respective obligations when they come due. Goldman Sachs’ opinion was necessarily based on economic, monetary, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to it as of, the date of the written opinion and Goldman Sachs assumed no responsibility for updating, revising or reaffirming its written opinion based on circumstances, developments or events occurring after the date of its written opinion. Goldman Sachs’ opinion was approved by a fairness committee of Goldman Sachs.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses delivered by Goldman Sachs to the Board of Directors in connection with rendering the opinion described above. The following summary, however, does not purport to be a complete description of the financial analyses performed by Goldman Sachs, nor does the order of analyses described represent relative importance or weight given to those analyses by Goldman Sachs. Some of the summaries of the financial analyses include information presented in tabular format. The tables must be read together with the full text of each summary and are alone not a complete description of Goldman Sachs’ financial analyses. Except as otherwise noted, the following quantitative information, to the extent that it is based on market data, is based on market data as it existed on or before April 26, 2019, the last completed trading day before the public announcement of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement and is not necessarily indicative of current market conditions.

Financial Analyses of the Company 

Historical Stock Trading Analysis

Goldman Sachs analyzed the consideration to be paid to holders of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement in relation to (1) the closing price per share of Common Shares on April 26, 2019 (which was US$2.55), the last completed trading day before the day on which the Merger Agreement was executed, (2) the undisturbed closing price per share of our Company common shares as of April 8, 2019 (which was US$2.09), the last full trading day prior to the published reports that Magazine Luiza had submitted a proposal to acquire the Company (such date, the “ Undisturbed Closing Price Date ”), (3) the high and low trading prices per share of Common Shares over the 52-week period ended on the Undisturbed Closing Price Date and (4) the volume-weighted average price (the “ VWAP ”) per share of the one-month, three-month and six-month periods, in each case ended on the Undisturbed Closing Price Date.

This analysis indicated that the price per share to be paid to the holders of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement represented:

·         a discount of 4% to the undisturbed closing price of US$2.09 per share of Company common shares on April 8, 2019;

·         a discount of 22% to the closing price of US$2.55 per share of Common Shares on April 26, 2019;

·         a premium of 11% to the VWAP of US$1.79 per share of Common Shares during the one-month period ended April 8, 2019;

·         a discount of 2% to the VWAP of US$2.05 per share of Common Shares during the three-month period ended April 8, 2019;

·         a premium of 7% to the VWAP of US$1.88 per share of Common Shares during the six-month period ended April 8, 2019;

·         a premium of 72% based on US$1.16 per share of Common Shares, the lowest trading price per share of Common Shares over the 52-week period ended April 8, 2019; and

·         a discount of 61% based on US$5.10 per share of Common Shares, the highest trading price per share of Common Shares over the 52-week period ended April 8, 2019.

Illustrative Discounted Cash Flow Analysis

38

Using the Company Financial Projections, Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative discounted cash flow analysis on the Company. Using discount rates ranging from 13.2% to 15.2%, reflecting estimates of the Company’s weighted average cost of capital, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of March 31, 2019: (i) estimates of unlevered free cash flow for the Company for the second through fourth quarters ended December 31, 2019, and the fiscal years 2020 to 2023 as reflected in the Company Financial Projections and (ii) a range of illustrative terminal values for the Company, which were calculated by applying perpetuity growth rates ranging from 4.0% to 6.0%, to a terminal year estimate of unlevered free cash flow to be generated by the Company, as derived from the Company Financial Projections (which analysis implied exit terminal year EBITDA multiples ranging from 2.9x to 4.5x and implied exit terminal year revenue multiples ranging from 0.3x to 0.5x). In addition, using discount rates ranging from 13.2% to 15.2%, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of March 31, 2019 estimates for the Company’s net operating losses (the “ NOLs ”) per share, based on the estimated benefits of NOLs for the second through fourth quarters ended December 31, 2019, fiscal years 2020 through 2023, as provided by the management of the Company, and fiscal years 2024 through 2032, at the instruction of the management of the Company, in each case, as reflected in the NOL Estimates. Goldman Sachs derived such range of discount rates by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (“ CAPM ”), which requires certain company-specific inputs, including the Company’s target capital structure weightings, the cost of long-term debt, after-tax yield on permanent excess cash, if any, future applicable marginal cash tax rate and a beta for the Company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally, and a mid-year convention. The range of perpetuity growth rates was estimated by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account the Company Financial Projections and market expectations regarding long-term real growth of gross domestic product and inflation. Goldman Sachs derived ranges of illustrative enterprise values for the Company by adding the ranges of present values it derived above. Goldman Sachs then subtracted from the range of illustrative enterprise values it derived for the Company the amount of the Company’s net debt and other enterprise value adjustments including discounted receivables, reverse factoring, contingent liabilities, minority interest and judicial deposits, in each case as provided by and approved for Goldman Sachs’ use by the management of the Company, to derive a range of illustrative equity values for the Company. Goldman Sachs then divided the range of illustrative equity values it derived by the number of fully diluted outstanding shares of Common Shares, as provided by the management of the Company, to derive illustrative present values per share of Common Shares ranging ranging from $0.00 to $1.83 (when excluding the net present value of the NOLs reflected in the NOL Estimates), and $0.32 to $2.19 (when including the net present value of the NOLs reflected in the NOL Estimates, which range from approximately $0.32 to approximately $0.37 per share of Common Shares).

Illustrative Present Value of Future Share Price Analysis

Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative analysis of the present value of the potential future price per share of Common Shares, which is designed to provide an indication of the present value of a theoretical future value of the Company’s equity as a function of certain financial multiples. For this analysis, Goldman Sachs used certain financial information from the Company Financial Projections for each of the fiscal years 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Goldman Sachs first calculated illustrative enterprise values of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021 by multiplying the respective one-year forward revenue estimates for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021 from the Company Financial Projections by enterprise value to revenue multiples ranging from 0.30x to 0.50x. The illustrative multiples were derived by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account current and historical trading data and the current and historical enterprise value to revenue multiples for the Company. Goldman Sachs then subtracted the assumed amount of net debt and other enterprise value adjustments, as contained in the Company Financial Projections, as of the relevant year-end per the Company Financial Projections from such enterprise values in order to calculate the implied future equity values. The implied future equity values in turn were divided by the projected year-end diluted shares of Common Shares outstanding, as provided by the management of the Company. Goldman Sachs then calculated the present values of each implied future value per share of Common Shares by discounting the implied future values per share of Common Shares to March 31, 2019, using a cost of equity of 16.0%, reflecting Goldman Sachs’ estimate of the Company’s cost of equity. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rate by application of CAPM, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including a beta for the company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. This analysis resulted in a range of implied present values of $0.32 to $2.32 per share of Common Shares by December 31, 2021.

39

Premium Analysis

Goldman Sachs reviewed and analyzed, using publicly available information, the acquisition premium for all-cash acquisition transactions announced during the time period from January 2014 through April 26, 2019 involving a public company in the global technology sector as the target where the disclosed enterprise values for the transaction were between $50 million and $500 million. This analysis excluded transactions with premium less than 0% and transactions with premium greater than 150%. For the entire period, using information obtained from Bloomberg, Thompson Financial Securities Data and market data as of April 26, 2019, Goldman Sachs calculated the median premium of the price paid in the transactions relative to the target’s closing stock price one (1) day prior to announcement of the transaction. This analysis indicated a median premium of 24% across the period. The following shows a summary of additional results of the review:

General

The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. Selecting portions of the analyses or of the summary set forth above, without considering the analyses as a whole, could create an incomplete view of the processes underlying Goldman Sachs’ opinion. In arriving at its fairness determination, Goldman Sachs considered the results of all of its analyses and did not attribute any particular weight to any factor or analysis considered by it. Rather, Goldman Sachs made its determination as to fairness on the basis of its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of all of its analyses. No company or transaction used in the above analyses as a comparison is directly comparable to the Company or the merger.

Goldman Sachs prepared these analyses for purposes of Goldman Sachs’ providing its opinion to the Board of Directors that, as of April 29, 2019 and based upon and subject to the factors and assumptions therein, the Merger Consideration to be paid to the holders (other than Magazine Luiza and its affiliates) of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement was fair from a financial point of view to such holders. These analyses do not purport to be appraisals nor do they necessarily reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Analyses based upon the Company Financial Projections of future results are not necessarily indicative of actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by these analyses. Because these analyses are inherently subject to uncertainty, being based upon numerous factors or events beyond the control of the parties or their respective advisors, none of the Company, Magazine Luiza S.A., Goldman Sachs or any other person assumes responsibility if future results are materially different from those forecast.

40

The consideration to be paid to holders of Common Shares was determined through arm’s-length negotiations between the Company and Magazine Luiza S.A. and was approved by the Board of Directors. Goldman Sachs provided advice to the Company during these negotiations. Goldman Sachs did not, however, recommend any specific amount of consideration to the Company or the Board of Directors or that any specific amount of consideration constituted the only appropriate consideration for the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

As described above, Goldman Sachs’ opinion to the Board of Directors was one of many factors taken into consideration by the Board of Directors in making its determination to approve the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The foregoing summary does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed by Goldman Sachs in connection with the fairness opinion and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the written opinion of Goldman Sachs attached as Annex C to this information statement.

Goldman Sachs and its affiliates are engaged in advisory, underwriting and financing, principal investing, sales and trading, research, investment management and other financial and non-financial activities and services for various persons and entities.  Goldman Sachs and its affiliates and employees, and funds or other entities they manage or in which they invest or have other economic interests or with which they co-invest, may at any time purchase, sell, hold or vote long or short positions and investments in securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps and other financial instruments of the Company, Magazine Luiza S.A., any of their respective affiliates and third parties, including Tiger Global Management, L.L.C., a significant shareholder of the Company (“ Tiger Global ”), CDK Net Fund IC, a significant shareholder of the Company (“ CDK ”), LTD Administração e Participações S.A., a significant shareholder of Magazine Luiza S.A. (“ Magazine Luiza Significant Shareholder ”) and their respective affiliates and, as applicable, portfolio companies, or any currency or commodity that may be involved in the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Goldman Sachs has acted as financial advisor to the Company in connection with, and has participated in certain of the negotiations leading to the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Goldman Sachs has provided certain financial advisory and/or underwriting services to the Company and/or its affiliates from time to time for which the Investment Banking Division has received, and may receive, compensation, including having acted as lead bookrunning manager with respect to an initial public offering of 8,250,000 shares of Common Shares in April 2017. Goldman Sachs may also in the future provide financial advisory and/or underwriting services to the Company, Magazine Luiza S.A., Tiger Global, CDK, Magazine Luiza Significant Shareholder and their respective affiliates and, as applicable, portfolio companies for which the Investment Banking Division may receive compensation.  Affiliates of Goldman Sachs also may have co-invested with Tiger Global, CDK and Magazine Luiza Significant Shareholder and their affiliates from time to time and may have invested in limited partnership units of affiliates of Tiger Global, CDK and Magazine Luiza Significant Shareholder from time to time and may do so in the future.

The Board of Directors selected Goldman Sachs as the Company’s financial advisor because it is an internationally recognized investment banking firm that has substantial experience in transactions similar to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to a letter agreement, executed on August 7, 2018, the Company engaged Goldman Sachs to act as its financial advisor in connection with the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The engagement letter between the Company and Goldman Sachs provides for a transaction fee that is estimated, based on the information available as of the date of announcement of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement, at approximately US$4.0 million, all of which will become payable upon consummation of the merger. In addition, the Company has agreed to reimburse Goldman Sachs for certain of its expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and to indemnify Goldman Sachs and related persons against various liabilities, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Certain Internal Financial Projections

We do not, as a matter of course, make public projections as to future performance, earnings or other results due to, among other things, the inherent difficulty of predicting financial performance for future periods and the likelihood that the underlying assumptions and estimates may not be realized. However, in connection with its evaluation of potential strategic alternatives and specifically the Merger, Company management prepared the Company Projections (as defined below). The Company Projections were prepared based on the assumption that the Company would continue as a standalone business and do not give effect to any changes or expenses resulting from the Merger or any effects of the Merger.

41

The table below presents selected statement of profit or loss line items and selected non-IFRS financial measures of the Company Projections (see the note below regarding “ Non-IFRS Measures ”), for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2023 (and in relation to tax savings resulting from net operating losses, for the second through fourth quarters ended December 31, 2019, and fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2032), as prepared by Company management and provided to and approved by our Board of Directors in its evaluation of the Merger and as provided to our financial advisor, Goldman Sachs , for its use and reliance in connection with its financial analyses and fairness opinion given to our Board of Directors as described above under the heading “–  Opinion of Financial Advisor .” In particular, Company management prepared a set of financial projections for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2023 (and in relation to tax savings resulting from net operating losses, for the second through fourth quarters ended December 31, 2019, and fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2032), that were used by Goldman Sachs in connection with its preparation of its financial analyses with respect to the Company and the Merger Consideration that was presented at the Board meeting held on April 29, 2019 (such financial projections, the “ Company Projections ”). 

Cautionary Statements

The Company Projections contain certain statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company Projections, while presented with numerical specificity, are necessarily based on a variety of estimates and assumptions and thus are subjective in many respects and subject to interpretation. Those estimates and assumptions concern future events and conditions that may not be realized and are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, industry, regulatory, market and financial uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are subject to significant economic and competitive uncertainties and beyond Netshoes’ control. Because the Company Projections cover multiple years, such information by its nature becomes less predictive with each successive year. Moreover, events and circumstances occurring subsequent to the date on which the Company Projections were prepared may be different from those assumed, or, alternatively, may have been unanticipated, and thus the occurrence of these events may affect financial results in a materially adverse or materially beneficial manner. Accordingly, no assurance can be given concerning the accuracy of the Company Projections or Netshoes’ availability to achieve the projected results, inasmuch as some assumptions inevitably will be incorrect. Actual financial results may differ materially from the expectations expressed or implied by the Company Projections.

Netshoes generally does not make public disclosures, or include in its reports filed with, or furnished to, the SEC, information about its anticipated financial position, results of operations or other prospective financial statement information, or assumptions or estimates about prospective financial statement information, such as the Company Projections described below, and does not plan to do that unless otherwise required by applicable law. The Company Projections were not prepared with a view towards public disclosure, to comply with the guidelines for prospective financial statements published by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or the rules and regulations of the SEC, and by their nature are not financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Netshoes’s independent accountants have neither examined nor compiled the Company Projections and accordingly do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to the Company Projections, assume no responsibility for the Company Projections and disclaim any association with the Company Projections.

Netshoes has not updated and does not intend to update, or otherwise revise, the Company Projections or underlying assumptions to reflect circumstances existing since their preparation or to reflect the occurrence of future events, even if any or all of the assumptions on which the Company Projections were based are shown to be in error. Furthermore, Netshoes does not intend to update or revise the Company Projections to reflect changes in general economic or industry conditions. Accordingly, no undue reliance should be placed on any such assumptions or the Company Projections.

Summary of Company Projections

Subject to the foregoing qualifications, the following tables present a summary of the Company Projections for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2023.

42

Net Operating Losses

Management of the Company also prepared estimates of and provided instruction as to the utilization of the Company’s net operating losses in future periods. 

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company Projections include forecasts of Unlevered Free Cash Flow. We define: (1) “Unlevered Free Cash Flow” as EBITDA from Continuing Operations less taxes, changes in net working capital and capital expenditures and investments and (2) “EBITDA from Continuing Operations” as as net income (loss) from continuing operations plus interest income/expense, net (which includes interest income, imputed interest on installment sales, interest expenses related to debt, imputed interest on credit purchases and debt issuance costs), income tax, depreciation and amortization expenses and monetary gain (loss), net. Unlevered Free Cash Flow and EBITDA from Continuing Operations are not measures of financial performance in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as a substitute for other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with IFRS. You should consider Unlevered Free Cash Flow and EBITDA from Continuing Operations alongside other financial performance measures, like net cash provided by (used in) our operating activities, net income (loss) and our other IFRS results.

Dissenter Rights

Holders of the Common Shares who exercise their rights in accordance with Section 238 of the Companies Law will have the right to receive payment of the “fair value” of their Common Shares if the Merger is completed, but only if they deliver to the Company, before the vote to authorize and approve the Merger is taken at the Extraordinary General Meeting, a written objection to the Merger and subsequently comply with all procedures and requirements of Section 238 of the Companies Law. A copy of Section 238 of the Companies Law is attached as Annex E to this information statement. The “fair value” of Common Shares determined under the Companies Law could be more than, the same as, or less than the Merger Consideration dissenting shareholders would otherwise receive. These procedures are complex and you should consult your Cayman Islands legal counsel if you intend to exercise such rights. If you do not fully and precisely satisfy the procedural requirements of the Companies Law, you will lose your dissenter rights (as described under the caption “ Dissenter Righ ts”).

Effects of the Merger on Our Common Shares

Under the Merger Agreement, each of our outstanding Common Shares other than those held by dissenting shareholders will be converted into the right to receive US$2.00 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. The conversion will occur automatically at the Effective Time of the Merger. As of the Effective Time of the Merger, each holder of our Common Shares other than dissenting shareholders will cease to have any rights as a shareholder, except the right to receive US$2.00 per share in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.

43

At the Effective Time of the Merger, current Netshoes shareholders will cease to have ownership interests in Netshoes or rights as Netshoes shareholders. Therefore, such current shareholders of Netshoes will not participate in any future earnings or growth of Netshoes and will not benefit from any appreciation in value of Netshoes.

Effect of the Merger on the Company’s 2012 Share Plan

As of the Effective Time of the Merger, the Company's 2012 Share Plan will terminate and all rights under any provision of any other plan, program or arrangement providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest in respect of the share capital of Netshoes or its subsidiaries will be cancelled.

At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding and unexercised share option (including held by certain of our directors and executives) to purchase one Common Share, whether or not then vested, with a per share exercise price less than US$2.00 (each, a “ cashed-out option ”), shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to US$2.00 less the exercise price of such cashed-out option, multiplied by the number of Common Shares underlying such cashed-out option (the “option consideration”). As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement) but in no event later than the fifth business day immediately after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall pay to each holder of a cashed-out option, through the applicable entity’s payroll system, the aggregate option consideration (without interest) payable to such holder of a cashed-out option.

Such cash consideration will be rounded down to the nearest cent, and the Surviving Company will be entitled to deduct and withhold from such cash consideration all amounts required to be deducted and withheld under applicable laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Company, such withheld amounts shall be treated as having been paid to the holder of the cashed-out options with respect to whom such amounts were withheld.

Each company share option outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the effective time with a per share exercise price greater than or equal to US$2.00 shall automatically be cancelled as of the Effective Time without any consideration payable in respect thereof.

Procedures for Receiving the Merger Consideration

On or prior to the Effective Time, Magazine Luiza must deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the paying agent, for payment to the holders of Common Shares and the holders of options, an amount of cash equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration to which such holders of Common Shares and/or options are entitled to receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Promptly following the Effective Time of the Merger, Magazine Luiza and the Surviving Company will cause the paying agent to mail to each holder of record of Common Shares whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, (i) transmittal materials, including a letter of transmittal in customary form as agreed by Magazine Luiza and Netshoes and (ii) instructions for surrendering book-entry Common Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Payments and deliveries of the Merger Consideration shall be made in immediately available funds. Upon payment of the Merger Consideration, each book-entry Common Share surrendered will be cancelled.  See “ The Merger Agreement—Payment Procedures .”

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

Tax matters are very complicated, and the tax consequences of the receipt of Merger Consideration being made in connection with the Merger to you will depend on your particular situation. You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisor regarding the specific tax consequences of the receipt of Merger Consideration and the Merger to you, including tax return reporting requirements, the applicability of federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax laws and the effect of any proposed change in the tax laws. This discussion is not intended to be a complete analysis or description of all potential tax consequences of the receipt of merger consideration and the merger.

44

The following is a general summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger to U.S. Holders (as defined below). This summary is based upon currently existing provisions of the Code, U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as in effect and available on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.

This discussion is limited to U.S. Holders who hold their Common Shares as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. No ruling has been or will be sought from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS ”), and no opinion of counsel has been or will be rendered, as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger. This summary does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to particular shareholders in light of their individual circumstances or the U.S. federal income tax consequences to shareholders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, such as banks and other financial institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, pension plans, individual retirement or other tax-deferred accounts, grantor trusts, partnerships or other pass-through entities, insurance companies, dealers in securities or foreign currency, persons that have elected mark-to-market treatment, tax-exempt organizations, certain former citizens or former long-term residents of the United States, U.S. Holders who have held (directly, indirectly or through attribution) 10% or more of the Common Shares by vote or by value, persons who own Common Shares through a partnership or other pass-through entity, persons that hold Common Shares as part of a “straddle,” “hedge,” “conversion transaction,” or other integrated investment, persons who acquired their Common Shares upon the exercise of options or otherwise as consideration for services performed, or persons that have a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, all of whom may be subject to U.S. federal income tax rules that differ significantly from those summarized below. This summary also does not discuss U.S. federal income tax consequences to a holder of options or warrants to acquire Common Shares. In addition, this summary does not discuss any non-U.S., state, or local tax consequences, any alternative minimum tax consequences, any consequences of the “Medicare tax” on net investment income or any U.S. tax consequences (e.g., estate or gift tax) other than U.S. federal income tax consequences.

As used herein, the term “ U.S. Holder ” means a beneficial owner of Common Shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

·         an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

·         a corporation (including any entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

·         an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

·         a trust (A) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all of its substantial decisions, or (B) if it has made a valid election under U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a domestic trust.

If a partnership is a beneficial owner of Common Shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that are beneficial owners of Common Shares, and partners in such partnerships, are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of the Merger.

NETSHOES SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER TO THEM AND THE EFFECTS OF APPLICABLE STATE, LOCAL, NON-U.S. OR OTHER TAX LAWS AND POSSIBLE CHANGES IN THE TAX LAWS.

45

NETSHOES SHAREHOLDERS WHO ARE NOT U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME AND WITHHOLDING TAX CONSEQUENCES AND ANY APPLICABLE NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER.

Receipt of Cash in Exchange for Common Shares

The receipt by a U.S. Holder of cash in exchange for Common Shares in connection with the Merger will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Generally, subject to the discussion below regarding the status of Netshoes as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC (see “— Passive Foreign Investment Company ” below), for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash it receives in connection with the Merger and the aggregate adjusted tax basis of the Common Shares that it exchanges therefor, and such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss (and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder held by the Common Shares for more than one year). Gain or loss will be calculated separately for each block of Common Shares (i.e., shares acquired at the same cost in a single transaction) exchanged for cash in the Merger. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Common Shares generally will equal the purchase price that it paid for such shares. Certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) may be eligible for preferential rates of U.S. federal income tax in respect of long-term capital gains.  The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Generally, gain or loss from the sale of shares will be U.S.-source passive category income or loss for purposes of the U.S. foreign tax credit calculation. The rules governing foreign tax credits are complex, and U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the sourcing rules and the foreign tax credit rules.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

The U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of receiving cash in exchange for Netshoes Common Shares in connection with the Merger could be materially different from those described above if Netshoes were classified as a passive foreign investment company (a “PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during which a U.S. Holder has held Netshoes Common Shares. Netshoes believes that it was not a PFIC for the taxable year ended December 31, 2018, and furthermore does not expect to be classified as a PFIC for its taxable year ending December 31, 2019. However, because PFIC status must be determined annually based on the composition of a company’s income and assets and the market value of its assets, there can be no assurance that Netshoes will not be considered a PFIC for its taxable year ending December 31, 2019.

A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which, after applying certain look-through rules, either:

·         at least 75% of its gross income is “passive income,” or

·         at least 50% of its average percentage of assets (as determined on the basis of a quarterly average of the values of its assets) produce “passive income” or are held for the production of passive income.

Passive income for this purpose generally includes dividends, interest, certain royalties, certain rents, gains from commodities and securities transactions, the excess of gains over losses from the disposition of assets which produce passive income, and includes amounts derived by reason of the temporary investment of funds raised in offerings of our Common Shares. If a non-U.S. corporation owns, directly or indirectly, at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, the non-U.S. corporation generally is treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and as receiving directly its proportionate share of the other corporation’s income.

46

If Netshoes were a PFIC in any year with respect to which a U.S. Holder owns Common Shares, any gain recognized by a U.S. Holder in connection with the Merger would be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Common Shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the Merger and to any year before Netshoes became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amounts allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, for that taxable year, and an interest charge would be imposed on the tax on such amount. Certain elections may be (or may have been) available that would result in alternative treatments (such as mark-to-market treatment) of the Common Shares. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors to determine whether any of these elections would be available and, if so, what the consequences of the alternative treatments would be in their particular circumstances.

Backup Withholding

Subject to the discussion above under “— Passive Foreign Investment Company ,” the payment of cash pursuant to the Merger in exchange for Common Shares may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding, at applicable rates. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who (i) furnishes a current taxpayer identification number and certifies that the U.S. Holder is not subject to backup withholding on IRS Form W-9 or a substantially similar form, or (ii) is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. If a U.S. Holder does not provide its correct taxpayer identification number on IRS Form W-9 or a substantially similar form, such holder may be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS. Amounts withheld, if any, are generally not an additional tax and may be refunded or credited against the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that such U.S Holder timely furnishes the required information to the IRS. The backup withholding tax rate is currently 24%.

THE FOREGOING DISCUSSION IS NOT INTENDED TO BE LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE TO ANY PARTICULAR SHAREHOLDER. TAX MATTERS ARE VERY COMPLICATED, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER TO NETSHOES SHAREHOLDERS WILL DEPEND ON THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATION. NETSHOES SHAREHOLDERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER, INCLUDING TAX RETURN REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, THE APPLICABILITY OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS AND THE EFFECT OF ANY PROPOSED CHANGE IN THE TAX LAWS.

Material Cayman Islands Tax Consequences

The Cayman Islands currently has no income, corporate or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax. No taxes, fees or charges will be payable (either by direct assessment or withholding) to the government or other taxing authority in the Cayman Islands under the laws of the Cayman Islands in respect of the Merger or the payment or receipt of cash for the Common Shares under the terms of the Merger. This is subject to the qualification that (i) Cayman Islands stamp duty may be payable if any original transaction documents, including the Merger Agreement, are brought into or executed in, or produced before a court in, the Cayman Islands, (ii) registration fees will be payable to the Cayman Islands Registrar to register the Plan of Merger, and (iii) fees will be payable to the Cayman Islands Government Gazette Office to publish the notice of the Merger in the Cayman Islands Government Gazette.

THE MERGER AGREEMENT

The following is a summary of certain provisions of the Merger Agreement. This section describes material provisions of the Merger Agreement, but does not purport to describe all of the terms of the Merger Agreement and may not contain all of the information that is important to you. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Agreement, a form of which is attached as Annex A to this document and incorporated by reference into this document. You are urged to read the Merger Agreement carefully and in its entirety because it is the legal document that governs the Merger. This section entitled “The Merger Agreement” is not intended to provide you with any factual information about us. Such information can be found elsewhere in this information statement and in the public filings we make with the SEC, as described in the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” of this information statement.

Explanatory Note Regarding the Merger Agreement

The Merger Agreement has been provided solely to inform you of its terms. The rights and obligations of Netshoes, Magazine Luiza and Merging Company are governed by the express terms of the Merger Agreement and not by this summary or any other information contained in this information statement. The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties that Netshoes, on the one hand, and Magazine Luiza and Merging Company, on the other hand, made to each other as of specific dates. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement among the parties and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations not reflected in the text of the Merger Agreement agreed to by Netshoes, Magazine Luiza and Merging Company in connection with the negotiated terms. Moreover, some of those representations and warranties may have been qualified by certain disclosure not reflected in the text of the Merger Agreement, may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to shareholders or may have been used for purposes of allocating risk among Netshoes, on the one hand, and Magazine Luiza and Merging Company, on the other hand, rather than establishing matters as facts. Investors and securityholders are not third-party beneficiaries under the Merger Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties to the Merger Agreement or any of their respective affiliates or businesses. For the foregoing reasons, you should not read the representations and warranties given by the parties in the Merger Agreement or any description of the Merger Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of Netshoes, Magazine Luiza and Merging Company or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.

The Merger

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, and in accordance with Cayman Islands law, at the effective time of the Merger, Merging Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza, will be merged with and into Netshoes and, as a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merging Company will cease and Netshoes will continue as the Surviving Company and will (a) become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magazine Luiza, (b) continue to be governed by the laws of the Cayman Islands, (c) maintain a registered office in the Cayman Islands and (d) succeed to and assume all of the rights, properties and obligations of Merging Company and Netshoes in accordance with the Companies Law. The Merger will be effected by way of a statutory merger pursuant to the Companies Law, which requires, among other things, the affirmative vote of holders representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Common Shares being voted, whether in person or by proxy, at the Extraordinary General Meeting , excluding abstentions and broker non-votes.

Closing and Effective Time of the Merger

Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by Netshoes and Magazine Luiza or unless the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its provisions, the closing of the Merger will take place on the fifth business day following the day on which the conditions precedent set forth in the Merger Agreement and described in the section entitled “ Conditions to the Merger ” of this information statement have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the closing of the Merger, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions by the party entitled to waive such conditions).

48

At the closing, the Merging Company and Netshoes will execute the Plan of Merger and register the Plan of Merger and other related documents with the Cayman Islands Registrar. The Merger will become effective upon the issuance by the Cayman Islands Registrar of the certificate of merger in accordance with Section 233(11) of the Companies Law which may be on the date of registration of the Plan of Merger and other related documents with the Cayman Islands Registrar or, in accordance with Section 234 of the Companies Law, at such other subsequent date (not exceeding 90 days after the date the Plan of Merger is registered) as the Merging Company and Netshoes may agree and specify in the Plan of Merger.

Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association; Directors

Immediately after Effective Time of the Merger, the Fourth Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Netshoes, in effect immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, will be the articles of association and memorandum of association, respectively, of the Surviving Company, until thereafter amended as provided therein in the Merger Agreement or by applicable law. From and after the Effective Time of the Merger, the parties shall take all actions necessary so that the directors of Merging Company immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger will become and constitute all of the directors of the Surviving Company until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified in accordance with the memorandum and articles of association of the Surviving Company. From and after the effective time of the Merger, the officers of Merging Company immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be the officers of the Surviving Company until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified in accordance with the memorandum and articles of association of the Surviving Company. Each party to the Merger Agreement is required to take all necessary action to implement such change.

The Merger Consideration and the Conversion of Share Capital

At the Effective Time of the Merger, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Netshoes, Magazine Luiza, Merging Company or the holders of any of the Common Shares, each common share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (other than Common Shares held in the treasury of Netshoes, reserved for future grants under the Company’s 2012 Share Plan (if any), or owned by any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Netshoes (if any), which shall be cancelled and surrendered without any conversion or consideration paid in respect thereof and shall cease to exist) shall automatically be converted into and represent the right to receive US$2.00 per Common Share held in cash without any interest thereon, subject to the withholding of any applicable withholding taxes.

At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding option to acquire Common Shares (including held by certain of our directors and executives) then outstanding and unexercised, whether or not vested, with a per share exercise price less than US$2.00, shall be accelerated and cancelled in exchange for the right to receive a cash payment (without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes) per share equal to the product of US$2.00 less the exercise price of such cashed-out option, multiplied by the number of shares underlying such cashed-out option.

Each Common Share of Merging Company outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be automatically converted into one common share of the Surviving Company of the Merger.

Payment Procedures

Prior to the Effective Time, Magazine Luiza must deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the paying agent, for payment to the holders of Common Shares (other than Dissenting Shares) , an amount of cash equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration to which such holders of Common Shares (other than Dissenting Shares) are entitled to receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Promptly following the Effective Time of the Merger, Magazine Luiza and the Surviving Company will cause the paying agent to mail to each former holder of record of Common Shares whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, (i) transmittal materials, including a letter of transmittal in customary form as agreed by Magazine Luiza and Netshoes and (ii) instructions for surrendering book-entry Common Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Payments and deliveries of the Merger Consideration shall be made in immediately available funds. Upon payment of the Merger Consideration, each book-entry Common Share surrendered will be cancelled.

49

In the event of a transfer of ownership of Common Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of Netshoes or if payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a person other than the person in whose name the surrendered certificates or book-entry Common Shares, as applicable, is registered, a check for any cash to be exchanged upon due surrender of the certificates or book-entry Common Shares, as applicable, may be issued to such transferee or other person if the certificates or book-entry Common Shares, as applicable, formerly representing such Common Shares are properly presented to the paying agent accompanied by all reasonable documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable transfer or other similar taxes have been paid or are not applicable.

If any cash deposited with the paying agent is not claimed within 12 months following the effective time of the Merger, such cash will be delivered to the Surviving Company upon demand, and any holders of Common Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger who have not previously complied with the exchange procedures in the Merger Agreement may thereafter look only the Surviving Company for payment (which will not include interest) of any such holder’s claim for Merger Consideration.

None of the paying agent, Magazine Luiza, Merging Company, the Surviving Company or any other party shall be liable to a holder of Common Shares for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

In the event that any certificate representing Common Shares has 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 a reasonable and customary agreement by such holder to indemnify and hold Magazine Luiza harmless from and against any losses in connection therewith, and, if reasonably required by Magazine Luiza, posting of a bond sufficient to serve 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 aggregate Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Common Shares represented by such certificate.

No interest will accumulate on any amount payable in respect of any Common Shares or options in connection with the Merger.

Representations and Warranties

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties made by Netshoes to Magazine Luiza and Merging Company that are subject to specified exceptions and qualifications contained in the Merger Agreement and the confidential disclosure letter that Netshoes delivered to Magazine Luiza concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement (the “ disclosure letter ”). The statements set forth in those representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Merger Agreement. Furthermore, some of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any particular date because they are subject to a contractual standard of materiality, knowledge or material adverse effect qualifiers different from those generally applicable to public disclosures to shareholders. The representations and warranties were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement rather than establishing matters of fact and should not be relied upon as statements of factual information. The representations and warranties made by Netshoes in the Merger Agreement and the description of them in this information statement should be read in conjunction with the other information contained in the reports, statements and filings Netshoes publicly files with the SEC.

50

In the Merger Agreement, Netshoes made representations and warranties to Magazine Luiza and Merging Company with respect to, among other things:

·         corporate matters of Netshoes and its subsidiaries, such as organization, standing and power;

·         corporate power and authority;

·         absence of conflicts;

·         governmental approvals;

·         Netshoes’ capitalization;

·         ownership of, and other matters related to, Netshoes’ subsidiaries;

·         the conduct of the business of Netshoes and its subsidiaries, the absence of certain changes, and the absence of a change, event, effect or circumstance that has had or would reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on Netshoes;

·         Netshoes’ SEC filings, including the financial statements contained therein, and compliance with securities and other laws, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

·         absence of certain undisclosed liabilities;

·         compliance with laws;

·         permits;

·         certain material contracts matters of Netshoes and its subsidiaries;

·         absence of certain changes;

·         legal proceedings;

·         employee benefit matters;

·         labor matters;

·         insurance matters;

·         real property matters;

·         tax matters;

·         intellectual property matters;

·         data privacy matters;

·         environmental matters;

·         information statement matters;

·         opinion from Goldman Sachs, its financial advisor;

51

·         inapplicability of certain anti-takeover statutes;

·         brokerage, finder’s or similar fees and commissions; and

·         related party transactions.

Many of the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement made by Netshoes are qualified by a “materiality,” “knowledge” or “material adverse effect” standard. For purposes of the Merger Agreement, a “material adverse effect” means, with respect to Netshoes, any change, event, effect, or circumstance (a) that, individually or in the aggregate, would prevent or materially impair the ability of Netshoes to consummate, on or prior to the outside date, the Merger or (b) that individually or in the aggregate, has resulted, or would reasonably be expected to result, in a material adverse effect on or with respect to the business, results of operations, assets, liabilities or financial condition of Netshoes and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

However, no change, event, effect, or circumstance to the extent relating to, arising out of or in connection with or resulting from any of the following, will be deemed to be, either alone or in combination, in determining whether there is a “material adverse effect” with respect to Netshoes (although certain changes will be taken into account to the extent materially and disproportionately impacting Netshoes relative to other businesses of a similar size in the industries in which Netshoes operates):

·         general changes or developments in the economy or the financial, debt, capital, credit or securities markets in Brazil, Argentina, the Cayman Islands, the United States or any other jurisdiction in which the Company or its Subsidiaries operate or do business, including as a result of changes in geopolitical conditions and including any variations in foreign exchange rates;

·         general changes or developments in the industries in which the Company or its subsidiaries operate;

·         changes or prospective or anticipated changes in any applicable Laws or regulations or IFRS, or any applicable accounting regulations or principles or interpretation or enforcement thereof;

·         any hurricane, tornado, earthquake, flood, tsunami, natural disaster, pandemic, act of God or other comparable events or outbreak or escalation or worsening of hostilities or war (whether or not declared), military actions or any act of sabotage, terrorism, or national or international political or social conditions;

·         the public announcement of the Merger or other transactions contemplated hereby, including any impact thereof on relationships, contractual or otherwise, with customers, suppliers, vendors, investors, lenders, partners, contractors or employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries;

·         any actions to which Magazine Luiza has consented or agreed in writing pursuant to the Merger Agreement or which the Company or any of its subsidiaries has refrained from taking due to Magazine Luiza not granting a consent or approval required under the Merger Agreement, or any actions taken at the written request of Magazine Luiza pursuant to the Merger Agreement;

·         any change in the price or trading volume of the Common Shares or the credit rating of the Company (it being agreed that the underlying cause of any such change described in this clause may be considered in determining whether or not a material adverse effect has occurred;

·         any failure by the Company to meet any published analyst estimates or expectations of the Company’s revenue, earnings or other financial performance or results of operations for any period, in and of  itself, or any failure by the Company to meet its internal or published projections, budgets, plans or forecasts of its revenues, earnings or other financial performance or results of operations, in and of itself (it being agreed that the underlying cause of any such failure described in this clause may be considered in determining whether or not a material adverse effect has occurred); or

52

·         any litigation or claim threatened or initiated by shareholders of the Company or representatives thereof against the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective officers or directors, in each case arising out of the execution of the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby.

In the Merger Agreement, Magazine Luiza and Merging Company made customary representations and warranties to Netshoes with respect to, among other things:

·         corporate matters of Magazine Luiza and Merging Company, such as organization and good standing;

·         corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Merger Agreement, to perform their obligations under the Merger Agreement, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby;

·         absence of conflicts;

·         governmental approvals;

·         litigation matters;

·         operations of Merging Company;

·         capital resources;

·         information statement matters;

·         ownership of Netshoes’ shares; and

·         brokerage, finder’s or similar fees and commissions.

Some of the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement made by Magazine Luiza and Merging Company are qualified by a “materiality,” “knowledge” or “material adverse effect” standard. For purposes of the Merger Agreement, a “material adverse effect” means, with respect to Magazine Luiza and Merging Company, any change, event, effect or circumstance that, individually or in the aggregate, would materially impair the ability of Magazine Luiza’ or Merging Company’ to consummate the Merger prior to the outside date.

The representations and warranties of either party contained in the Merger Agreement will not survive the effective time of the Merger.

Covenants Regarding Conduct of Business by Netshoes Pending the Merger

The Merger Agreement contains certain covenants restricting the conduct of business by Netshoes between the date of the Merger Agreement and the earlier to occur of the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms and the effective time of the Merger. In general, Netshoes has agreed that, unless Magazine Luiza gives its written approval in advance or except as expressly contemplated or required in the Merger Agreement, or as required by applicable law, or as disclosed in the confidential disclosure letter that Netshoes delivered to Magazine Luiza concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, each of Netshoes and its subsidiaries must carry on its business in the ordinary course of business, and, to the extent consistent with the foregoing, must use its commercially reasonable efforts to preserve its business organization intact, and preserve the present relationships of Netshoes and its subsidiaries with customers and suppliers.

53

Netshoes has further agreed that, except as expressly contemplated or required in the Merger Agreement, as required by applicable law, as disclosed in the disclosure letter, or as approved in writing and in advance by Magazine Luiza, until the earlier to occur of the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms and the effective time of the Merger, Netshoes will not, and will not permit its subsidiaries to take the following actions (subject to certain exceptions specified in the Merger Agreement or the schedules thereto):

·         amend the memorandum and articles of association of Netshoes or any other applicable organizational document of Netshoes’ subsidiaries;

·         make any acquisition of (whether by merger, consolidation or acquisition of stock or substantially all of the assets) any corporation, partnership or other business organization or division thereof;

·         issue, sell, or dispose of (or authorize the issuance, sale or disposition of), any company securities except for (A) the issuance of shares upon the exercise of any company options as required by the terms of the Company’s share plan and the applicable award agreement, or (B) any issuance, sale or disposition to the Company or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company by any subsidiary of the Company;

·         reclassify, combine, split, subdivide, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares (except for the settlement of any company options pursuant to the terms of the Company’s share plan);

·         make any loans, advances or any payments other than payments in the ordinary course of business to any person in excess of US$100,000 in the aggregate;

·         sell or otherwise dispose of (whether by merger, consolidation or disposition of stock or assets or otherwise) any corporation, partnership or other business organization or division thereof or otherwise sell, assign, transfer, pledge, charge, encumber, exclusively license, allow to expire, or dispose of any assets, rights or properties having a fair market value in the aggregate in excess of US$1,000,000, other than sales, dispositions or licensing of equipment and/or inventory in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice pursuant to existing contracts;

·         declare, set aside, make or pay any dividend or other distribution, payable in cash, stock, property or otherwise, with respect to any of its capital stock (except for any dividend or distribution by a subsidiary of the Company to the Company or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company);

·         authorize or make any capital expenditures in excess of US$5,000,000 in the aggregate;

57

Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance

The Merger Agreement provides that the Surviving Company and its subsidiaries shall (and Magazine Luiza shall cause the Surviving Company and its subsidiaries to) honor and perform the obligations of Netshoes and its subsidiaries under any and all indemnification agreements between Netshoes or its subsidiaries and any of their respective current or former directors and officers.  The provisions in the Surviving Company’s and each of its subsidiaries’ memorandum and articles of association and other similar governing or constituent documents and instruments with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of former or present directors and officers shall be no less favorable to such directors and officers than such provisions contained in Netshoes’ or its subsidiaries’ memorandum and articles of association and other similar governing or constituent documents and instruments in effect as of the date of the Merger Agreement, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years after the consummation of the Merger in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any such individuals.

Magazine Luiza has also agreed to maintain or cause the Surviving Company to maintain in effect, for six years from the Effective Time of the Merger, at no expense to the beneficiaries, Netshoes’ current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by Netshoes covering facts or events occurring at or prior to the effective time of the Merger, including in respect of the Merger and other transactions thereunder, providing benefits and levels of coverage and with policy terms (including with respect to deductibles and exclusions), limits, amounts and conditions that are no less favorable than those of Netshoes’ current directors’ and officers’ insurance policies. However, Magazine Luiza or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, will not be required to pay annual premiums in excess of 350% of the current aggregate annual premium for these policies. In case such policy or policies cannot be obtained for such amount, Magazine Luiza or the Surviving Company will only be required to purchase the greatest amount of coverage available for such amount.

If Magazine Luiza or the Surviving Company or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates, restructures, recapitalizes, merges with or into any other person or otherwise reorganizes and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation, restructuring, recapitalization, merger or other restructuring or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made by Magazine Luiza or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, so that the successors and assigns of Magazine Luiza or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, shall assume all of the foregoing obligations.

The indemnification and insurance rights of the directors and officers are in addition to any rights they may have under the Memorandum and Articles of Association or the articles of incorporation and bylaws or similar  governing or constituent documents and instruments of any of the Netshoes’ subsidiaries, or under any applicable contracts or laws.

Certain Other Covenants

The Merger Agreement may also be terminated by Magazine Luiza under any of the following circumstances:

·         at any time prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, if there shall have been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Netshoes contained in the Merger Agreement, or any such representation or warranty is untrue, which breach, if occurring or continuing at the effective time of the Merger, would result in the failure to satisfy a closing condition, and such breach or condition is not curable or, if curable, is not cured prior to the earlier of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof is given by Magazine Luiza to Netshoes or two (2) business days prior to the outside date; provided that Magazine Luiza shall not have the right to terminate if Magazine Luiza or Merging Company are then in breach of any of their covenants or agreements contained in the Merger Agreement, which breach, if occurring or continuing at the effective time of the Merger, would result in the failure to satisfy a closing condition; and

If the Merger Agreement is validly terminated, it will become void, with the exception of a few specified sections, each of which will survive the termination of the Merger Agreement, and, subject to certain specified provisions of the Merger Agreement that will survive such termination, including among others, the provisions relating to access to information, publicity and confidentiality; effects of termination; expenses; and general provisions. However, the termination of the Merger Agreement will not relieve any party from liability for any fraud or willful breach prior to such termination.

Termination Fee; Expenses

Netshoes is required to pay to Magazine Luiza a termination fee of US$1,800,000 if the Merger Agreement is terminated under any of the following circumstances:

·         if the Merger Agreement is terminated by Magazine Luiza because (i) Netshoes has engaged in a willful breach of its obligations on deal protection mechanisms or (ii) Netshoes’ Board of Directors (a) has made, prior to obtaining the shareholders’ approval, a company adverse recommendation change in a manner adverse to Magazine Luiza or Merging Company, (b) has failed to include the recommendation of the Merger in the information statement distributed to shareholders, (c) has recommended, prior to obtaining the shareholders’ approval, to Netshoes’ shareholders an acquisition proposal with a person other than Magazine Luiza or Merging Company, or (d) has formally resolved to effect or publicly announced an intention to effect any of the foregoing, prior to obtaining the shareholder approval; and

·         if the Merger Agreement is terminated by either Magazine Luiza or Netshoes because the Merger is not consummated until the outside date or because the shareholder approval has not been obtained, or if the Merger Agreement is terminated by Magazine Luiza because of a breach of representation, and warranty, covenant or agreement by Netshoes, and (a) at or prior to the date of the Extraordinary General Meeting to approve the Merger Agreement, an acquisition proposal shall have been made directly to the Netshoes’ shareholders, or an acquisition proposal shall have otherwise become publicly known, and (b) within 12 months after such termination Netshoes enters into a definitive agreement to effect any acquisition proposal and such definitive agreement is subsequently completed (regardless of whether such consummation occurs within such twelve-month period);

In the event that Magazine Luiza is entitled to receive the Netshoes termination fee, the right of Magazine Luiza to receive such amount will constitute liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate Magazine Luiza in the circumstances in which it is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating the Merger Agreement, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Subject to any liability for damages resulting from fraud or willful breach, upon payment of the termination fee, Netshoes and its affiliates shall have no further liability with respect to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and in no event will Netshoes be required to pay the termination fee on more than one occasion.

61

All fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated, except as described above. Expenses incurred in connection with the filing, printing and mailing of this information statement shall be shared equally by Magazine Luiza and Netshoes.

Specific Performance

Netshoes, Magazine Luiza and Merging Company will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of the Merger Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Prior to the valid termination of the Merger Agreement, the parties will be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of, and to prevent or cure breaches of the Merger Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, including to effect the closing. None of Netshoes, Magazine Luiza or Merging Company will be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Amendment

Subject to applicable law, the Merger Agreement may be amended at any time prior to the Effective Time by execution of a written agreement signed by each of Magazine Luiza, Merging Company and Netshoes and, to the extent applicable, delivered by duly authorized officers of the respective parties.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

The Merger Agreement and any dispute in connection therewith will be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, and any action or proceeding arising in connection with the Merger Agreement will be brought only before any New York state or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties to the Merger Agreement have contractually agreed that (i) the internal affairs of Netshoes, the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors and the officers of Netshoes and general company law with respect to Netshoes and other provisions of, or transactions contemplated by, the Merger Agreement that are expressly or otherwise required to be governed by the Companies Law, shall be governed by the Companies Law.
