(NASDAQ:GMBL) (NASDAQ:GMBLP) (NASDAQ:GMBLW) (NASDAQ:GMBLZ) (or the "Company") today announced that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement with the holder of its Senior Convertible Note ("Holder") for the purchase and sale of 7,065,000 shares of the Company's common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase 17,850,000 shares of common stock in a registered direct offering at an effective purchase price of $0.0937 per share or per pre-funded warrant. Upon completion of the offering, the Holder will own approximately 9.9% of the outstanding common stock of the Company.

Esports Entertainment Group, Inc.(纳斯达克股票代码:GMBL)(纳斯达克股票代码:GMBLW)(纳斯达克股票代码:GMBLZ)(或 “公司”)今天宣布,它已与其优先可转换票据的持有人(“持有人”)签订了证券购买协议,购买和出售公司7,065,000股普通股和购买17,850,000股普通股的预先融资认股权证注册直接发行的股票,有效买入价为每股或每份预先融资的认股权证0.0937美元。发行完成后,持有人将拥有公司约9.9%的已发行普通股。

Jan Jones Blackhurst, Chair of the Company's Board of Directors, said, "We are pleased to be working with a very important stakeholder to raise capital and build our business. We remain excited about the future and the possibilities ahead, and also look forward to naming a CEO in the very near term that will start our next chapter."

公司董事会主席扬·琼斯·布莱克赫斯特表示:“我们很高兴与一个非常重要的利益相关者合作,筹集资金并发展我们的业务。我们对未来和未来的可能性仍然感到兴奋,也期待在不久的将来任命一位首席执行官,这将开启我们的下一个篇章。”

Total gross proceeds from the offering, before deducting the offering expenses, was approximately $2.3 million. The pre-funded warrants are exercisable immediately upon issuance.

扣除发行费用之前,本次发行的总收益约为230万美元。预先注资的认股权证可在发行后立即行使。

In a concurrent private placement, the Company is also issuing 100 shares of series B mirroring preferred stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"). At the next annual meeting of stockholders, the Company will call for the approval of, among other things, a proposal to effect a reverse stock split ("Reverse Stock Split Proposal") of the Company's common stock without a corresponding reduction in the authorized shares of common stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has voting rights on the Reverse Stock Split Proposal equal to 25,000,000 votes per share of Series B Preferred Stock, provided that any votes cast by the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to the Reverse Stock Split Proposal must be counted by the Company in the same proportion as the shares of common stock voted on this proposal. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a par value of $0.001 per share and a stated value of $1,000 and will be automatically redeemed by the Company upon stockholder approval of a reverse stock split of the Company's shares of common stock.

在同时进行的私募中,公司还发行了100股B系列镜像优先股(“B系列优先股”)。在下次年度股东大会上,除其他外,公司将要求批准一项在不相应减少授权普通股的情况下对公司普通股进行反向股票拆分(“反向股票拆分提案”)的提案。B系列优先股对反向股票拆分提案的投票权等于B系列优先股每股25,000,000张选票,前提是公司计算B系列优先股对反向股票拆分提案的任何选票的比例必须与对该提案进行表决的普通股的比例相同。B系列优先股的每股面值为每股0.001美元,规定价值为1,000美元,将在股东批准公司普通股的反向股票拆分后由公司自动赎回。

The offerings closed on December 21, 2022. Pursuant to the Company's plans to increase liquidity and maintain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company anticipates raising additional funds in the near term either through a private placement or public offering of common stock.

本次发行于2022年12月21日结束。根据公司增加流动性并保持对纳斯达克上市规则的遵守的计划,公司预计将在短期内通过私募或公开发行普通股筹集更多资金。
