14 April 2022


Dear ATL Shareholder,


Update on indicative merger timetable and Scheme Meeting postponed


You will have previously received the scheme booklet dated 21 February 2022 (Scheme Booklet) relating to the proposed merger of Apollo

Tourism & Leisure Ltd (ATL) with Tourism Holdings Limited (thl) by way of scheme of arrangement (Scheme). A copy of the Scheme Booklet was

released to ASX on 21 February 2022 and is available on ATL’s website at https://apollotourism.com/shareholder-centre/asx-announcements.

Unless otherwise indicated, capitalised terms used in this letter have the meaning given to them in the Scheme Booklet.


Update on Scheme Conditions


As noted in sections 1.3 and 5.3 of the Scheme Booklet, implementation of the Scheme is subject to a number of Scheme Conditions being satisfied

or waived (where capable of waiver) by the Relevant Date. Amongst other things, the Scheme Conditions include obtaining approvals from

relevant regulatory authorities, such as the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), New Zealand Commerce Commission

(Commerce Commission) and the Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB).


On 2 March 2022, ATL announced that the Commerce Commission had requested an extension to its statutory timeframe for a decision on

clearance of the proposed merger to 14 April 2022. On 31 March 2022, ATL further announced that the ACCC had delayed its indicative timeline

for clearance of the proposed merger to allow additional time to obtain further information. The ACCC has given an updated provisional date of 28

April 2022 to announce its findings. On 11 April 2022, ATL announced that the Commerce Commission had further extended its statutory

timeframe from 14 April 2022 to 28 April 2022, which now aligns with the ACCC provisional decision date.


Approval of the proposed merger by the FIRB in Australia is subject to approval by ACCC and, accordingly, also remains outstanding. The recently

announced Federal election may also impact the timing of obtaining approval from the FIRB as it enters into caretaker period.


ATL will continue to work closely with thl, the ACCC, the New Zealand Commerce Commission and the FIRB to progress the respective clearance

applications.


As a result of the above, ATL and thl have agreed to extend the End Date, being the date on which the Scheme Conditions must be satisfied or

waived (if capable of waiver), to 31 July 2022, unless at that time the only Scheme Conditions that need to be satisfied or waived prior to the

Delivery Time on the Second Court Date on that date (with Scheme Conditions that would be satisfied on that date if it was the Second Court

Date treated as though they had been satisfied at or prior to the Delivery Time on the Second Court Date only for the purposes of this proviso)

are one or more of the Scheme Conditions in clauses 3.1(a)(ii) (ACCC), 3.1(a)(iii) (Commerce Commission), 3.1(a)(iv) (FIRB), 3.1(n) (Shareholder

Approval), 3.1(o) (Court approval) and 3.1(p) (Order lodged with ASIC) of the Scheme Implementation Deed, in which case it is 31 August 2022,

or such other date and time as agreed between thl and ATL. As at the date of this letter, all of the Scheme Conditions remain outstanding.


Scheme Meeting and Second Court Hearing postponed


In light of the above, the Scheme Meeting originally scheduled for 10.00am (AEST) on Wednesday, 20 April 2022 will be postponed to a date to

be advised. The Supreme Court of Queensland has also, at ATL’s request, adjourned the Second Court Date originally scheduled for 10.00am

(AEST) on Thursday, 28 April 2022 to a date to be fixed. The Scheme Meeting is postponed pursuant to rule 16.11(a) of ATL’s constitution as the

Chairman considers the postponement is necessary to ensure that the business of the Scheme Meeting can be properly carried out.


Once the new details of the Scheme Meeting, Second Court Date and the revised implementation timetable become available, ATL will approach

the Supreme Court of Queensland for approval to provide this information to ATL Voting Shareholders.


The ATL directors continue to unanimously recommend that ATL Voting Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme in the absence of a superior

proposal and subject to the Independent Expert continuing to conclude that the Scheme is in the best interests of ATL Voting Shareholders.

Subject to those same qualifications, the ATL directors intend to vote, or procure the voting of, their shares in favour of the Scheme.

If you have any questions, you may contact the ATL Shareholder Information Line on 1300 396 584 (within Australia) or +61 3 9415 4151

(outside Australia) on Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays) between 8.30am and 5.00pm (AEST).

Yours sincerely,
