This Amendment No. 4 to the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 ("Amendment No. 4") amends and supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 originally filed on November 14, 2022 (together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the "Schedule 14D-9" or the "Statement") by Getnet Adquirência e Serviços Para Meios de Pagamento S.A. – Instituição de Pagamento, a company incorporated under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil (the "Company" or "Getnet"). The Schedule 14D-9 relates to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed on October 31, 2022 (together with any subsequent amendments and supplements thereto, the "Schedule TO") by PagoNxt Merchant Solutions, S.L., a company organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (the "Purchaser") and to the offer by Purchaser to acquire, through an all cash tender offer pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase, dated October 31, 2022 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the "U.S. Offer to Purchase"), a copy of which is attached to the Schedule 14D-9 as Exhibit (a)(1)(i), and the related Share Letter of Transmittal, Unit Letter of Transmittal and ADS Letter of Transmittal (each as defined in the U.S. Offer to Purchase, and collectively, "Letters of Transmittal"), copies of which are attached to the Schedule 14D-9 as Exhibits (a)(1)(ii), (a)(1)(iii) and (a)(1)(iv), respectively (which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the "U.S. Offer") in addition to a concurrent separate all cash tender offer on equivalent terms in Brazil (the "Brazilian Offer," and together with the U.S. Offer, the "Offers") pursuant to other offering documents published in Brazil, up to any and all of the outstanding (i) common shares, no par value (the "Common Shares"), preferred shares, no par value (the "Preferred Shares" and, together with the Common Shares, the "Shares") and units, each composed of one Common Share and one Preferred Share (the "Units"), in each case of the Company, excluding those Shares and/or Units held, directly or indirectly, by Purchaser and its affiliates, and (ii) American Depositary Shares, each representing two Units (the "ADSs" and, together with the Shares and the Units, the "Securities"), traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, excluding those ADSs held, directly or indirectly, by Purchaser and its affiliates, at a price per Security equal to the U.S. dollar equivalent of R$2.36 per Common Share, R$2.36 per Preferred Share, R$4.72 per Unit and R$9.44 per ADS, in each case payable in U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate reported by the Brazilian Central Bank (*Banco Central do Brasil*) on the business day prior to the settlement date of the U.S. Offer, to be adjusted for any potential dividends, interest on own capital and/or bonuses which may be paid, and/or splits, reverse splits and conversions which may take place, between the date on which the Offers were announced and the dates of expiration of the Offers (but excluding the interest on capital already announced on May 4, 2022 and paid on June 27, 2022, which will not be deducted from the offered price). The U.S. Offer commenced on October 31, 2022, and the initial offering period of the U.S. Offer expired at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (7:00 p.m. São Paulo time) on November 30, 2022. Purchaser has commenced a subsequent offering period for the U.S. Offer, which, as described in this Amendment No. 4, will now expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (7:00 p.m. São Paulo time) on February 9, 2023.

Any information contained in the documents incorporated herein by reference shall be deemed modified or superseded for purposes of this Amendment No. 4 to the extent that any information contained herein modifies or supersedes such information.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment No. 4, the information set forth in the Schedule 14D-9, including all exhibits, schedules and annexes thereto, remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference in response to all items to the items in this Amendment No. 4. This Amendment No. 4 should be read together with the Schedule 14D-9.

**ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND OF FILING PERSON.**

Item 2 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby supplemented as follows:

**Tender Offer and Transaction**

On January 9, 2023, the Company issued a call notice for an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the "EGM"), to be held on February 9, 2023 at 12:00 p.m., New York City time (2:00 p.m., São Paulo time), to resolve on, among other matters, the redemption by the Company of any Unaffiliated Securities that remain outstanding (the "Squeeze-Out") after the Offers. The price in the Squeeze-Out shall be the price per Security payable during the initial offering period in respect of the Securities, as adjusted by the SELIC rate from the initial date of settlement of the Offers until payment of the Squeeze-Out price (which must be made within 15 days of the date of the EGM).

Pursuant to Brazilian law, the Brazilian Subsequent Offering Period will automatically expire following the conclusion of the EGM, provided that the Company's shareholders vote to approve the Squeeze-Out at the EGM. Accordingly, the U.S. Subsequent Offering Period will now expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (7:00 p.m. São Paulo time) on February 9, 2023, instead of at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (7:00 p.m. São Paulo time) on March 2, 2023.

The call notice issued by the Company in respect of the EGM is attached as Exhibit (a)(5)(xv) to the Schedule 14D-9 and is incorporated herein by reference.
