Notice of Kambi Group Plc Extraordinary General Meeting 2023
Reading Time: 6 minutes

 

In terms of Articles 41 and 42 of the Articles of Association of the Company
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that that AN EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING (the “Meeting”) of Kambi Group plc, company number C 49768 (the “Company”) will be held on Thursday 30 June 2022 at 11.00 CEST at Kambi, Hälsingegatan 38, 113 43 Stockholm, Sweden, to consider the following Agenda. The registration of shareholders starts at 10.30 CEST.

Right to attendance and voting

  • To be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting (and for the purpose of the determination by the Company of the number of votes they may cast), shareholders must be entered on the Company’s register of members maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB by Thursday 9 June 2022.
  • Shareholders whose shares are registered in the name of a nominee should note that they may be required by their respective nominee/s to temporarily re-register their shares in their own name in the register of members maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB in order to be entitled to attend and vote (in person or by proxy) at the Meeting. Any such re-registration would need to be effected by Thursday 9 June 2022. Shareholders should therefore liaise with and instruct their nominees well in advance thereof.
  • To be entitled to attend and vote in person at the Meeting, shareholders must notify Euroclear Sweden AB of their intention to attend the Meeting by Thursday 9 June 2022 and can do so by (i) e-mail to Generalmeetingservice@euroclear. com or (ii) mail to: Kambi Group plc, c/o Euroclear Sweden AB, Box 191, SE-101 23 Stockholm, Sweden or (iii) by phone on +46 8 402 9092 during the office hours of Euroclear Sweden AB. Notification should include the shareholder’s name, address, email address, daytime telephone number, personal or corporate identification number, number of shares held in the Company, as well as details of any proxies (if applicable, in the case that the shareholder has appointed a third party representative to attend the Meeting in their stead). Information submitted in connection with the notification will be computerised and used exclusively for the Meeting. See below for additional information on the processing of personal data.

Shareholders’ right to appoint a proxy

  • A shareholder who is entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting, is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote on his or her behalf. A proxy need not also be a shareholder. If the shareholder is an individual, the proxy form must be signed by the appointer (or his authorised attorney) or comply with Article 126 of the Articles. If the shareholder is a corporation, the proxy form must be signed on its behalf by an authorised attorney or a duly authorised officer of the corporation or comply with Article 126 of the Articles.
  • Proxy forms must clearly indicate whether the proxy is to vote in their discretion or in accordance with the voting instructions sheet attached to the proxy form. Your proxy shall vote as you have directed in respect of the resolutions set out in this notice or on any other resolution that is properly put to the meeting. If the proxy form is returned to the Company without any indication as to how the proxy shall vote, generally or in respect of a particular resolution, the proxy shall exercise their discretion as to how to vote or whether to abstain from voting, generally or in respect of that particular resolution (as applicable).
  • Where the shareholder is a corporation, a document evidencing the signatory right of the officer signing the proxy form, must be submitted with the proxy form. Where the proxy form is signed on behalf of the shareholder by an attorney (rather than by an authorised representative, in the case of a corporation), the original power of attorney or a copy thereof certified or notarised in a manner acceptable to the Board of Directors must be submitted to the Company, failing which the appointment of the proxy may be treated as invalid.
  • The original signed proxy form and, if applicable, other supporting documents (required pursuant to the above instructions), must be received by Euroclear Sweden AB no later than Thursday 9 June 2022 by (i) e-mail to Generalmeetingservice@euroclear .com or (ii) mail to: Kambi Group plc, c/o Euroclear Sweden AB, Box 191, SE-101 23 Stockholm, Sweden. Shareholders are therefore encouraged to submit their proxy forms (and other supporting documents, if any) as soon as possible.
  • Proxy forms are available on the Company website  under the General Meetings section.
  • Aggregated attendance notifications and proxy data processed by Euroclear Sweden AB must be transmitted to and received by the Company by email at Mia.Nordlander@kambi .com not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the Meeting and in default shall not be treated as valid.

Special Business (Extraordinary Resolutions)

7. THAT the Directors be and are hereby duly authorised and empowered in accordance with Articles 85(1) and 88(7) of the Companies Act and Article 3 of the Articles, on one or several occasions prior to the date of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company, to issue and allot up to a maximum of 3,106,480 Ordinary ‘B’ shares in the Company of a nominal value of €0.003 each (corresponding to a dilution of 10% of total shares as at the date of the notice to the 2022 Annual General Meeting) for payment in kind or through a direct set-off in connection with an acquisition, and to authorise and empower the Directors to restrict or withdraw the right of pre-emption associated to the issue of the said shares. This resolution is being taken in terms and for the purposes of the approvals necessary in terms of the Companies Act and the Articles of Association of the Company. (Resolution a)

8. WHEREAS (i) at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company held on 30 March 2022, the Directors resolved to obtain authority to buy back Ordinary ‘B’ shares in the Company having a nominal value of €0.003 each; and

(ii) pursuant to Article 5 of the Articles and Article 106(1) (b) of the Companies Act a company may acquire any of its own shares otherwise than by subscription, provided inter alia authorisation is given by an extraordinary resolution, which resolution will need to determine the terms and conditions of such acquisitions and in particular the maximum number of shares to be acquired, the duration of the period for which the authorisation is given and the maximum and minimum consideration.

NOW THEREFORE the members of the Company resolve that the Company be generally authorised to make purchases of Ordinary ‘B’ shares in the Company of a nominal value of €0.003 each in its capital, subject to the following:

(a) the maximum number of shares that may be so acquired is 3,106,480 which is equivalent to 10% of total shares as at the date of the notice to the 2022 Annual General Meeting;

(b) the minimum price that may be paid for the shares is SEK1 per share;

(c) the maximum price that may be paid for the shares is SEK1,000 per share;

(d) the maximum aggregate number of shares that can either be i) issued and allotted under Resolution a and, ii) bought back under this Resolution b, shall not exceed 3,106,480; and

(e) the authority conferred by this resolution shall expire on the date of the 2023 Annual General Meeting, but in any case shall not exceed the period of 18 months, but not so as to prejudice the completion of a purchase contracted before that date. (Resolution b)

9. Closing of the Extraordinary General Meeting


Information about proposals related to Agenda items

Both extraordinary Resolutions, Resolutions a and b, were presented in their entirety to the Annual General Meeting held on 17 May, 2022 (which resolutions were referred to therein as resolutions m and n respectively), and obtained one majority of two required in terms of article 135 of the Companies Act (Cap 386), and in terms of Articles 48B.2(b) of the Articles of Association of the Company. To this end, this Extraordinary General Meeting is being convened within 30 days of the Annual General Meeting, in accordance with the aforementioned provisions of the Companies Act and the Articles, in order to take a fresh vote on the proposed extraordinary resolutions.

Agenda item 7 (Resolution a)
The objectives of the authorisation are to increase the financial flexibility of the Company and to enable the Company to use its own financial instruments for payment in kind or through a directed set-off to a selling partner in connection with any business acquisitions the Company may undertake or to settle any deferred payments in connection with business acquisitions. The market value of the shares on each issue date will be used in determining the price at which shares will be issued. For the purposes of Article 88(7) of the Companies Act, through this resolution the members of the Company are also authorising the Board of Directors to restrict or withdraw the members’ right of pre-emption that would normally entitle members to be offered the newly issued shares in the Company in proportion to their shareholding before such new shares are offered to third parties.

Agenda item 8 (Resolution b)
The Board of Directors proposes that the acquisition by the Company of its own shares shall take place on First North Growth Market at Nasdaq Stockholm or via an offer to acquire the shares to all members of the Company. Such acquisitions of own shares may take place on multiple occasions and will be based on market terms, prevailing regulations and the capital situation at any given time. Notification of any purchase will be made to First North Growth Market at Nasdaq Stockholm and details will appear in the Company’s annual report and accounts. Any resolution to repurchase own shares will be publicly disclosed. The objective of the buyback and transfer right is to ensure added value for the Company’s shareholders and to give the Board increased flexibility with the Company’s capital structure.

Following such buybacks, the intention of the Board would be to either cancel, use as consideration for an acquisition or transfer to employees under a company share incentive plan. Once repurchased, further shareholder and Bondholder approval would be required before those shares could be cancelled.

If used as consideration for an acquisition the intention would be that they would be issued as shares and not sold first.

OpenBet, a leading content, platform and service provider to the sports betting industry, has reported impressive results at this year’s Grand National Festival, processing 101,000 peak bets per minute, which represents an increase of 21% year-on-year.

The 2024 edition of the iconic race held at Aintree saw jockey Paul Townend secure his first Grand National win with joint-favourite I Am Maximus. During the horse racing festival, OpenBet’s robust betting engine powered the account transactions for market-leading operators such as William Hill, Entain and Flutter, delivering a seamless betting experience for their customers.

Despite a reduced field size of 34 runners during the flagship race, betting interest remained extremely high across the three-day festival, which remains one of the busiest horse races of the year.

 

Significant highlights across OpenBet’s customers included:

  • 101,000 peak bets per minute (BPM), 21% increase vs 2023
  • 3,000 peak bets per second, 34% increase vs 2023
  • 397 million account transactions, 3% increase vs 2023
  • Average Win and Each Way stake was £5.42
  • 100% uptime

Florian Diederichsen, CTO at OpenBet, said: “We continue to deliver record-breaking results at OpenBet, across some of the world’s major sporting events.

“This year, the Grand National continued to attract extraordinary levels of bettors. With an average win and each way stake being £5.42, any downtime would have risked £100,000s of lost turnover. However, our operator partners were able to deliver a seamless betting experience for the historical event with the support of our highly experienced team, and industry-leading technology. We look forward to delivering even more success during the summer of sport ahead.”

Push Gaming’s DJ Cat Spins the Discs and the Reels

Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming has released the second in its series of DJ games, DJ Cat, which brings a range of new features to amp up engagement.

Following the success of DJ Fox, this new follow-up retains the easy-to-understand, win-what-you-see gameplay, adding in larger win multipliers.

Lining up CD symbols helps players to build big prizes while VIP icons grant access to spin the decks and feed the Multiplier Meter. Arrow symbols crank the volume and unlock more reels using the iconic Push-Up feature.

Following a growing trend within iGaming, DJ Cat omits a bonus feature and instead is designed to deliver volatile gameplay throughout the title.

DJ Cat is the first second-quarter release from Push Gaming and launches ahead of much anticipated upcoming titles like Retro Sweets and Cats of Olympuss.

“Win-what-you-see games have enjoyed a surge in popularity recently and we’ve taken that trend and framed it in a contemporary theme, delivering something fresh to players and operators,” the Senior Game Producer for Push Gaming, Craig Turner, said. “In another unique twist from most of our catalogue, we decided not to implement a bonus round but instead designed the entire game with a fast-paced feel that we’re sure players will love.”

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

4ThePlayer in collaboration with Yggdrasil is unveiling its new release, 4K Ultra Gold MoneyWays, through the YGG Masters platform.

This game evolves 4ThePlayer’s popular MoneyWays mechanic as seen in the top-performing 4 Fantastic series where cash on the reels is won by forming ways wins without the need for additional symbols or features. In 4K Ultra Gold, every cash symbol is boosted when it lands on the reels, creating additional excitement and anticipation.

In addition, cash can now be collected via scatters on every reel, magnifying the potential wins and creating more ways to win than any other MoneyWays game.

The game features four increasing Boosting Fortunes Prizes; the Ultra, Mega, Super and Big Fortunes can land on the reels and be instantly won along with cash prizes. If a Boosting Fortunes Prize is not won on a spin, then it will be increased for future spins.

The entertainment does not stop there as players can choose between free spins or Collect Spins. In free spins, wilds turn into multiplier wilds to increase your wins. In Collect Spins, a Collect scatter lands on every spin to award every cash prize in view.

“Our newest game with 4ThePlayer is a fantastic addition to our portfolio,” the Senior Product and Program Manager for Yggdrasil, Zoe Bird, said. “4K Ultra Gold is a high-octane experience that offers a host of different ways for players to snag cash prizes thanks to MoneyWays and, with the four Boosting Fortunes Prizes available, there’s so much to go at. This is another game that exemplifies Yggdrasil’s partner programme and offers an incredibly fun addition to any casino lobby.”

“We’re celebrating the return of MoneyWays in this feature-rich release, 4K Ultra Gold,” the co-founder and Commercial and Marketing Director for 4ThePlayer, Henry McLean, said. “With super vibrant visuals, powerful maths and a soundtrack that is as exciting as the gameplay, we’re confident we’ve got an ultra-high-performing game on our hands.”
