using NBU 7.6.x with sql server 2012 always ON

Level 6

NBU 7.6.0.3

i previously asked (can't find the old thread) regarding  NBU and sql server high availability and someone suggested that only NBU 7.7.x supports the always ON feature of sql server 2012. upgrading to 7.7.x is on my plan of action but there are some things that happened which "postponed" that plan.

will the backups be fine with sql server 2012 always on using NBU 7.6.0.3 if i continue using this version?
