*	The remainder of this cover page shall be filled out for a reporting person’s initial filing on this form with respect to the subject class of securities, and for any subsequent amendment containing information which would alter disclosures provided in a prior cover page.

The information required on the remainder of this cover page shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section of the Act but shall be subject to all other provisions of the Act (however, see the Notes).

Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 27, 2020 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”). The Items below amend the information disclosed under the corresponding Items of the Schedule 13D as described below. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by:

1.	Inserting the following as a new paragraph after the paragraph describing the Share Subscription Agreements:

On July 13, 2020, Globetrotter issued a waiver letter (on behalf of itself, Global Blue and the Seller Parties) (the “Waiver Letter”) to the Issuer, whereby Global Blue waived its contractual rights to declare and pay, and its pre-business combination shareholders waived their rights to receive, the pre-transaction dividend of approximately €154 million, as permitted by the Merger Agreement. Additionally, pursuant to the Waiver Letter, Globetrotter waived any rights the pre-business combination shareholders may have with respect to the payment of the Net Debt Adjustment Amount (as defined in the Merger Agreement), but only to the extent the Net Debt Adjustment Amount arises because the pre-transaction dividend was waived and not paid in full and in cash before the closing of the Merger pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the Waiver Letter, Globetrotter commits (on behalf of itself and the Seller Parties) after closing of the Transactions to complete a cashless exchange of up to €50 million (determined based on the Exchange Rate as defined in the Merger Agreement) preferred shares of New Global Blue for ordinary shares of New Global Blue. Finally, on the terms and conditions of a commitment letter delivered by the Seller Parties pursuant to the Waiver Letter, certain Seller Parties will make available to New Global Blue a post-closing funding facility for $75 million to ensure access to additional liquidity, subject to the terms and conditions of the commitment letter and the loan agreement attached thereto. Except for the waiver of the contractual rights to the pre-transaction dividend, the Waiver Letter is conditional upon closing of the Merger, the Backstop Provider completing the purchase of Class A Common Stock as and to the extent required pursuant to the Backstop, and Third Point’s affiliates completing their investments as and to the extent required by their Share Purchase and Contribution Agreement. The description of the Waiver Letter, commitment letter and form of loan agreement set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, which are filed as exhibits hereto and are incorporated by reference herein.

2.	Inserting the following as a new paragraph after the paragraph describing the Proposed Enhancements:

On July 13, 2020, Globetrotter delivered a memorandum to the Issuer addressed to its board of directors in which Globetrotter proposed to the Issuer the waivers and commitments described in the Waiver Letter (the “Final Proposal”), which provides material value accretion to all of the Issuer’s shareholders and warrantholders relative to the existing Merger Agreement. The Final Proposal delivers more than $300 million in combined valuation, liquidity, and capital structure improvements, in addition to affording the company even more covenant cushion. Globetrotter believes the Final Proposal will make the Transactions more attractive to the Issuer and its security holders, and therefore more likely to vote their shares in favor of the Vote Proposals. See above for a description of the Waiver Letter. The foregoing description of the memorandum to the Issuer is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the memorandum, which is filed as an exhibit hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The information set forth in Item 4 to this Amendment No. 1 is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 6.

Item 7. Material to Be Filed as Exhibits

Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:

I.	Waiver Letter dated July 13, 2020 from SL Globetrotter, L.P. to Issuer.

J.	Commitment Letter dated July 13, 2020 from certain Seller Parties to Global Blue Group Holding AG, including form of Loan Agreement among certain Seller Parties and Global Blue Group Holding AG.

K.	Memorandum dated July 13, 2020 from SL Globetrotter, L.P. to Issuer’s board of directors regarding the Final Proposal.

Attn: Thomas Farley (thomas.farley@farpoint.ventures)

David Bonanno (david.bonanno@farpoint.ventures)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of January 16, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”) entered into by and among SL Globetrotter, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Globetrotter” and, in its capacity as a representative of the Company and its shareholders on the date of the Merger Agreement and immediately prior to the Closing, the “GB Shareholders’ Representative”), Global Blue Group Holding AG, a stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft) incorporated under Swiss law, with its registered office in 38, Zürichstrasse, CH-8306 Brüttisellen, Switzerland (“New Topco”), Global Blue US Holdco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“US Holdco”), Global Blue US Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“US Merger Sub”), Global Blue Holding L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“Cayman Holdings”), the individuals listed on Section 1.01(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedules (the “Management Sellers” and, together with Globetrotter and Cayman Holdings, the “Seller Parties”), Global Blue Group AG, a stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft) incorporated under Swiss law, with its registered office in 38, Zürichstrasse, CH-8306 Brüttisellen, Switzerland (the “Company”), Far Point Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“FPAC”), Thomas W. Farley, solely in his capacity as the FPAC Shareholders’ Representative (“FPAC Shareholders’ Representative”), solely for purposes of Sections 2.20 and 8.01 of the Merger Agreement, Far Point LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Founder”), and Jacques Stern, solely in his capacity as the Management Representative (“Management Representative”).

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this letter have the meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement.

We are writing to grant certain waivers of rights under the Merger Agreement and to make certain commitments with respect to the Transactions, in both cases for the benefit of FPAC, as set forth below:

1.	Waiver of Pre-Deal Dividend. In accordance with Section 12.01 of the Merger Agreement, the GB Shareholders’ Representative hereby waives, on behalf of the Company and the Seller Parties:

(a)

the rights under the Merger Agreement of the Company to pay, and of the Company Shareholders to receive, the Pre-Deal Dividend; and

(b)

any rights the Company Shareholders may have pursuant to Section 2.19 of the Merger Agreement to be paid the Net Debt Adjustment Amount, but only to the extent the Net Debt Adjustment Amount arises because the Pre-Deal Dividend was waived pursuant to paragraph 1(a) above and not paid in full and in cash before the Closing.

2.	Commitment to Convert Certain Convertible Preferred Shares.

We commit to convert Convertible Preferred Shares into New Topco Shares following the Closing in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Conversion Agreement as follows:

(a)

No later than 10 Business Days following the Closing, the Holders (as defined in the Conversion Agreement) will deliver a Put Transfer Indication (as defined in the Conversion Agreement) to New Topco in accordance with clause 5.3 of the Conversion Agreement with respect to the exercise of the Put Option (as defined in the Conversion Agreement) over an aggregate number of Convertible Preferred Shares (such number determined by reference to the Exchange Rate and rounded to the nearest whole number of Convertible Preferred Shares) so that, after giving effect to the cashless exchange of Convertible Preferred Shares under the Put Option, the Convertible Preferred Shares Value will not be greater than (i) the Convertible Preferred Shares Maximum (being €200 million) minus (ii) €50 million, and will not revoke such Put Transfer Indication. The Convertible Preferred Shares subject to the Put Transfer Indication delivered under this paragraph 2(a) will be allocated on a pro rata basis among the Holders, unless the Holders (or some of them) shall agree to a different allocation between them.

(b)

In accordance with clause 5.1 of the Conversion Agreement and the Put Transfer Indication delivered pursuant to paragraph 2(a) above, each Holder will issue a Put Transfer Notice (as defined in the Conversion Agreement) to New Topco with a Put Effective Time (as defined in the Conversion Agreement) no later than 10 Business Days after the date of the Put Transfer Notice (or such earlier or later date to which New Topco shall consent) and shall take any and all other actions required to be taken by it pursuant to the Conversion Agreement to complete the cashless exchange of the Convertible Preferred Shares subject to the Put Transfer Notice for Common Shares (as defined in the Conversion Agreement).

(c)

The obligations of the Holders under this paragraph 2 are several and not joint or joint and several.

3.	Funding Facility. On the terms and conditions of the enclosed commitment letter, the Seller Parties will make available to New Topco a post-Closing funding facility.

This letter may be enforced against us only subject to and effective upon each of the following conditions having been satisfied (or waived by us in writing):

(a)

the Forward Closing (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement) shall have been completed in accordance with the Forward Purchase Agreement and, unless the Purchase Price (as defined in the Third Point Commitment Agreement) shall have been reduced to $0, the Closing (as defined in the Third Point Commitment Agreement) shall have been completed in accordance with the Third Point Commitment Agreement; and

(b)

the Closing shall have been completed in accordance with the Merger Agreement;

provided that, from the date of this letter until Closing on or before the termination of this letter in accordance with the immediately following paragraph, any failure by us to comply with the waiver of the rights to pay and receive the Pre-Deal Dividend set forth paragraph 1(a) above may be enforced against us only by specific performance or injunction.

We intend to be bound by this letter in accordance with its terms. This letter will terminate immediately (and without any obligation or liability on our part) upon the earliest of (a) the Closing not having occurred on or before August 31, 2020, (b) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms and (c) written notice by FPAC to the GB Shareholders’ Representative purporting to terminate the Merger Agreement.

Except as expressly waived in paragraph 1 above, any and all rights of the GB Shareholders’ Representative, the Seller Parties, the Company, New Topco, US Holdco and US Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are reserved.

Nothing expressed or implied in this letter is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person, other than FPAC or, after the Closing, New Topco, any rights under or by reason of this letter. This letter, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction.

(b)

agrees that failure by an agent for service of process to notify the Company of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned.

7	Remedies and Waivers

7.1

The failure to exercise or delay in exercising a right or remedy under the Commitment Documents will not constitute a waiver of that right or remedy or a waiver of any other right or remedy and no single or partial exercise of any right or remedy will preclude any further exercise of that right or remedy, or the exercise of any other right or remedy.

7.2	Except as expressly provided in the Commitment Documents, the rights and remedies contained in the Commitment Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

8	Partial Invalidity

If, at any time, any provision of the Commitment Documents is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.

9	Entire Agreement

9.1	The Commitment Documents set out the entire agreement between the Commitment Parties and the Company with regards to the making available of the Loan and supersede any prior oral and/or written understandings or arrangements relating to the Loan.

9.2	Any provision of the Commitment Documents may only be amended or waived by way of a written amendment or waiver signed by the Commitment Parties and the Company, or otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Commitment Document.

10	Counterparts

11.2

For the benefit of the Commitment Parties only, each of the parties to this letter agrees that the courts of England have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any disputes in connection with the Commitment Documents and any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with it and each of the parties to this letter accordingly submits to the jurisdiction of the English courts.

to waive any objection to the English courts on grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise as regards proceedings in connection with the Commitment Documents and any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with the Commitment Documents;

that a judgment or order of an English court in connection with the Commitment Documents and any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with it is conclusive and binding on it and may be enforced against it in the courts of any other jurisdiction; and

Exhibit K

SL Globetrotter, L.P.

July 13, 2020

To the FPAC Board of Directors:

We write with the further revised proposal below (the “Final Proposal”) that provides material value accretion to all of FPAC’s shareholders and warrantholders relative to the existing merger contract. The Final Proposal delivers more than $300 million in combined valuation, liquidity, and capital structure improvements, in addition to affording the company even more covenant cushion. To prevent further unnecessary process delays and to demonstrate that our Final Proposal benefits all shareholders, we have provided you with documentation implementing the Final Proposal solely via enhancements that we can effectuate unilaterally. We ask nothing of others, including Third Point, other than pursuant to existing obligations, and we respectfully request your reasonable assistance in completing this transaction. In particular, we encourage the FPAC board to act in the interest of all shareholders by immediately confirming receipt of the Final Proposal; working expeditiously to finalize the F-4 filing so that it can be declared effective as soon as possible; convening the shareholder meeting as soon as possible; and then consummating the transaction. As we have noted in the past, non-consummation likely would result among other things in FPAC liquidation and value destruction for its shareholders (including Globetrotter) and warrantholders, by creating uncertainties around the amount and timing of redemption proceeds and rendering warrants worthless, whereas our plan reiterates targeting a warrant price of at least $1.00.

The Final Proposal is a follow-up to our memo dated May 23, 2020, as well as FPAC and Third Point’s joint counterproposal of June 12, 2020. We include compromises – and in some cases go beyond even what you have asked – with respect to the concepts from your June counterproposal that benefit all FPAC shareholders and warrantholders including Third Point, but we do not support those that benefit Third Point disproportionately. For example, even though Third Point is already bound to support the transaction, the June proposal would release it from at least $180 million of its $430 million contractual backstop commitment while allowing it to keep all its warrant upside and the vast majority of the Founder shares it originally received for minimal consideration, other than for entering into the very backstop contract with FPAC that it now seeks to disavow.

Allowing Third Point and/or other funding sources committed to the transaction to renege on any of their contractual obligations is not acceptable to us (including in our capacity as a buyer of FPAC shares and one of its current largest shareholders) and should not be acceptable to FPAC’s other shareholders. As you know, Third Point has publicly touted its “iron-clad backstop” as a “major innovation” in the way SPACs work, specifically enhancing closing certainty and enabling third-party public investors – FPAC’s own shareholders – to get their money back promptly at closing should they not wish to participate in an announced deal. Third Point’s own letter to its offshore hedge fund investors reads as follows (emphasis added):

“All US-listed SPACs offer investors the ability to receive cash for their shares rather than stock in the new company, meaning that deals rejected by the market may deliver significantly less cash to the seller than expected or even fail entirely if too many investors want their money back. This ‘redemption’ feature is a serious risk that limits the appetite of sophisticated sellers to offer large, high quality assets to SPAC purchasers…. We were able to use Third Point’s scale and balance sheet to solve the redemptions risk by having the funds backstop up to $430 million of cash to the sellers. This iron-clad

backstop was a major innovation and part of what made our SPAC unique. As we expected, it proved critical in improving the quality of actionable targets…. Third Point’s investment track record and public markets expertise was an attractive bonus for sellers who almost always retain a large stake in the company post-transaction. Leveraging these key upgrades to the traditional SPAC structure differentiated FPAC from other SPACs and virtually all other exit alternatives for sellers of attractive businesses. Our ability to deliver significant ‘size and certainty’, operational assistance, and public markets expertise was clearly recognized by potential targets and brought us to an excellent outcome with Global Blue.” -Third Point

Our Final Proposal

With this in mind, and in the spirit of reaching a swift conclusion, we present the following immediately effective amendments in support of the joint company and the consummation of the transaction:

We provide material value accretion for all FPAC shareholders by forfeiting the $175 million dividend we are owed, and by converting preferred stock to common stock.

•

We hereby waive (via the attached formal waiver) our $175 million¹ dividend and our right to a post-closing cash or stock purchase price make-whole related to the same. These combined actions constitute equity value accretion fully borne by the Seller Parties, in an amount that is meaningful even at the nominal deal equity value of ~$1.9 billion. FPAC’s board previously stated publicly that Global Blue had become worth less than this nominal value, and therefore more cash on the balance sheet (worth par by definition) is even more accretive when compared with FPAC’s apparently lower view of fair value. Moreover, since the date of FPAC’s prior assessment, stock market valuations have increased, certain cross-border travel in Europe and Asia has begun to resume, and Global Blue’s management has developed the margin improvement plan referenced below.

•

We also agree to convert $57 million1 in face value of convertible preferred stock by hereby proactively delivering you notice that we will convert this preferred stock into common stock. Since the convertible preferred stock is clearly worth more than the common stock, this is another valuation concession versus our merger contract. While we disagree with FPAC’s contention that this perpetual preferred stock with no interest initially and only non-cumulative dividends starting five years from closing has any material impact on liquidity, using FPAC’s own prior view our concession would increase the $250 million in liquidity injection described below to more than $300 million, in addition to improving valuation.

We dramatically increase the company’s liquidity by approximately a quarter billion dollars ($250 million) and provide Global Blue even more covenant cushion.

•

In addition to the $175 million above that comes in the form of cash to the balance sheet from the dividend waiver, we also hereby create $75 million of additional liquidity cushion for the company by proactively creating an 18-month holdback of proceeds by the principal Seller Parties. Global Blue would have the ability to draw upon this holdback in the form of subordinated debt with significant flexibility and with the minimum interest rate permitted by law, to the extent legitimately needed for either liquidity or covenant purposes. FPAC also has previously raised what it perceives to be covenant risks for Global Blue in late 2021. Our solution for this is much more effective than the suggestions FPAC has made, as our version does not require bank approval and yet still provides an “EBITDA-based cure” that has a beneficial multiplicative effect on improving the covenant calculation.

¹	€154 million for the dividend and €50 million for the preferred stock, respectively, at current FX rates.

•

Global Blue management has developed a detailed operational efficiency plan that would significantly increase margins and cash flow once the pandemic subsides and revenue normalizes. It also would maintain investment in critical technology-related growth initiatives and enable the company to reinvest strategically as the business continues to recover. Achievement of this new plan would further improve liquidity, and likely valuation as well, versus prior characterizations. With a 40+ year history of innovation, Global Blue remains well-positioned as the clear market share leader within its industry, which we expect to recover after international travel recovers. As such, we look forward to remaining the largest shareholder of the company upon closing of the transaction.

We confirm a commitment to delivering value of at least $1.00 per warrant.

•

The equity value accretion itself mechanically increases theoretical warrant valuation.

•

Moreover, those Globetrotter directors who will continue to represent both Global Blue and FPAC shareholders post-closing commit to using reasonable best efforts post-closing to implement a plan to deliver value of at least $1.00 per warrant, which we believe is in the interest of both shareholders and warrantholders alike.
