Attention: U.S. Shareholders of EverArc Holdings Limited

Re: PFIC Annual Information Statement for the period ended
October 31, 2020
As discussed more fully in the prospectus filed by EverArc
Holdings Limited, a company incorporated in the British Virgin
Islands (the "Company"), with the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority
on December 12, 2019, under the caption heading "Taxation-U.S.
federal income taxation-U.S. Holders-Passive foreign investment
company ("PFIC") considerations" (the "U.S. Tax Disclosure") the
Company believes that it may meet the definition of a passive
foreign investment company ("PFIC") under Section 1297 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") for its 2020
taxable year. However, there is also the possibility that
subsequent circumstances in the 2021 tax year can allow the Company
to avoid PFIC status in 2020 under the so-called PFIC "start-up"
exception. The Company cannot presently determine if this exception
would apply but will be monitoring developments and will provide
appropriate information as to any potential impact to 2020 tax
reporting.
The following discussion of the start-up exception is included
in the U.S. Tax Disclosure:
"The PFIC rules, however, contain an exception to PFIC status
for companies in their start-up year. Under this exception, a
corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the
corporation has gross income if (1) no predecessor of the
corporation was a PFIC; (2) it is established to the satisfaction
of the IRS that the corporation will not be a PFIC for either of
the first two taxable years following the start-up year; and (3)
the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of the first two
taxable years following the start-up year.
The Company cannot provide assurance as to whether the start-up
year exception will apply. For instance, the Company may not make
the Acquisition during the current taxable year or the following
year. If this were the case, the "start-up" exception described in
the preceding paragraph would likely not apply and, as a result,
the Company would likely be a PFIC. Additionally, after making the
Acquisition, the Company may still meet one or both of the PFIC
tests, depending on the timing of the Acquisition and the nature of
the income and assets of the acquired business for either the
current year or for any subsequent year.
In the event that the start-up exception does not ultimately
apply, and it is determined that the Company was a PFIC in 2020,
certain U.S. income tax consequences flow from this designation and
these consequences may be mitigated by the U.S. shareholder
electing to treat the foreign corporation as a "qualified electing
fund" ("QEF") under Section 1295 of the Code. Accordingly, the
Company is providing the attached PFIC Annual Information Statement
pursuant to the requirements of Treasury Regulation 1.1295-1(g)(1).
The PFIC Annual Information Statement contains information to
enable you or your tax advisor to prepare your tax return if you
elect to treat the Company as a QEF.
A U.S. shareholder who makes a QEF election is required to
annually include in one's income one's pro rata share of the
ordinary earnings and net capital gains for the Company. The QEF
election is made by attaching IRS Form 8621 to your federal income
tax return filed by the due date of the return, as extended.
U.S. shareholders should consult the U.S. Tax Disclosure for a
more comprehensive discussion of the PFIC rules.
WE RECOMMEND U.S. SHAREHOLDERS CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX
ADVISORS
REGARDING ANY DECISION TO MAKE (OR REFRAIN FROM MAKING) ANY
ELECTION THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE TO THEM BECAUSE ANY SUCH
DECISION WILL DEPEND UPON THEIR OWN PARTICULAR TAX SITUATION
AND MAY HAVE SIGNIFICANT AND CONTINUING U.S. TAX
CONSEQUENCES.
THE COMPANY IS UNABLE TO GIVE ADVICE IN THIS REGARD.
