Item5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security
Holders.

An Extraordinary General Meeting of the shareholders of Pace
Holdings Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (Pace) was held
on March1, 2017 (the Meeting). Present at the Meeting were
holders of 53,101,981 shares of Paces ordinary shares in person
or by proxy, representing 94.40% of the voting power of Paces
ordinary shares as of February8, 2017, the record date for the
Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of
business.

The shareholders of Pace voted on the proposals listed below.
Each proposal is described in more detail in the proxy
statement/prospectus of Porto Holdco B.V., a Dutch private
limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte
aansprakelijkheid) (Holdco) which the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the SEC) declared effective on February10, 2017 and
is incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K.

1. To adopt the Transaction Agreement, dated December13, 2016,
among Pace, Playa Hotels Resorts B.V., a Dutch private limited
liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte
aansprakelijkheid) (Playa), Holdco, and New PACE Holdings Corp.,
a Cayman Islands exempted company (New Pace) (the Transaction
Agreement) and approve the transactions contemplated thereby,
including the business combination, the effect of which
replicates the economics of a merger of Pace and Playa, and
results in Holdco becoming the ultimate parent company to New
Pace and Playas direct and indirect subsidiaries (the Business
Combination) (the Business Combination Proposal).

2. To approve the merger of Pace with and into New Pace, with New
Pace being the surviving company in such merger (the Pace Merger)
and authorize, approve and confirm the Merger Proposal between
Holdco and Playa (the Plan of Merger) (the Pace Merger Proposal).

3. To consider and vote upon, on a non-binding advisory basis,
the approval of certain governance provisions contained in the
Holdco Articles of Association that are not required by Dutch law
and materially affect shareholder rights:

A. The election of director candidates and incumbent directors
annually for appointment for a term ending at the end of the
annual General Meeting to be held in the year following their
appointment (the Holdco Articles of Association Term of Holdco
Board of Directors Proposal);

B. The requirement that a notice of a general meeting of
shareholders must include items for which a written request has
been given (no later than 60 days prior to the general meeting)
by one or more shareholders representing (individually or
collectively) 3% or more of Holdcos issued share capital (the
Holdco Articles of Association Ability to Bring Matters for
Discussion Before a General Meeting of Holdco Proposal);

C. A provision that certain parties who compete with Holdco will
be prohibited from beneficially owning ordinary shares exceeding
certain percentage thresholds of the issued and outstanding
ordinary shares of Holdco, as reasonably calculated by the board
of directors of Holdco (the Holdco Articles of Association
Shareholding Limits for Certain Shareholders of Holdco Proposal);

2

D. The requirement that, subject to certain exceptions, the
holders of at least one third of the issued and outstanding
ordinary shares of Holdcos capital, present in person or
represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at a general
meeting of shareholders (the Holdco Articles of Association
Quorum Required to Conduct Business before a General Meeting of
Holdco Proposal).

4. To approve the adjournment of the Meeting to a later date or
dates (i)to the extent necessary to ensure that any required
supplement or amendment to the proxy statement/prospectus is
provided to Pace shareholders or, if as of the time for which the
Meeting is scheduled, there are insufficient Pace ordinary shares
represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum
necessary to conduct business at the Meeting, (ii)in order to
solicit additional proxies from Pace shareholders in favor of the
Business Combination Proposal and the Pace Merger Proposal, or
(iii)if Pace shareholders redeem an amount of class A ordinary
shares such that the minimum proceeds condition to each partys
obligation to consummate the Business Combination would not be
satisfied (the Adjournment Proposal).
