(1)

Subject to the Maximum Acceptance Amount and modified proration, the principal amount of Notes that is purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer will be determined in accordance with the applicable Acceptance Priority Level (in numerical priority order) specified in this column; provided that IGT will not accept for purchase Dollar Notes in an aggregate principal amount that is greater than the Dollar Offer Sub Cap.

(2)

The applicable Total Consideration equals the sum of the applicable Tender Offer Consideration and the applicable Early Tender Premium.

(3)

For each US$1,000.00 principal amount of the Dollar Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time and accepted for purchase.

(4)

Does not include accrued interest, which will also be paid in addition to the Dollar Tender Offer Consideration or the Total Dollar Consideration (as applicable).

(5)

For each US$1,000.00 principal amount of the Dollar Notes tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase.

(6)

For each €1,000.00 principal amount of the Euro Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time and accepted for purchase.

(7)

Does not include accrued interest, which will also be paid in addition to the Euro Tender Offer Consideration (or the Total Euro Consideration (as applicable).

(8)

For each €1,000.00 principal amount of the Euro Notes tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase.

In addition to the Dollar Tender Offer Consideration, the Total Dollar Consideration, the Euro Tender Offer Consideration or the Total Euro Consideration (as applicable), all Holders of Notes accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes, rounded to the nearest US$0.01 per US$1,000.00 principal amount of the Dollar Notes and €0.01 per €1,000.00 principal amount of the Euro Notes from the last interest payment date up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date (as defined below) or the Final Settlement Date (as defined below) (as applicable).

Notes of one or both series may be subject to modified proration if the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn (with the aggregate principal amount of the Euro Notes converted to US dollars using the Exchange Rate) as of the Early Tender Time or the Expiration Time (as applicable) would cause the Maximum Acceptance Amount to be exceeded or the aggregate principal amount of the Dollar Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Time or the Expiration Time (as applicable) would cause the Dollar Offer Sub Cap to be exceeded. Furthermore, regardless of the Acceptance Priority Level, Notes tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be accepted for purchase in priority to Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time, and to the extent Notes are tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer, the portion of the Maximum Acceptance Amount (which shall be applied subject to the Acceptance Priority Levels) and the Dollar Offer Sub Cap available for the purchase of Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time will be reduced or may be eliminated completely.

The Tender Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, IGT, in its sole and absolute discretion, being satisfied that it has received, or will receive, by the Early Settlement Date an amount of net proceeds of the sale of the shares of LIS Holdings S.p.A. by an indirect subsidiary of IGT to PostePay S.p.A. which would be sufficient to finance the payment by IGT of the sum of (1) the sum of the Total Dollar Consideration and the Dollar Tender Offer Consideration with respect to all Dollar Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer to Purchase and (2) the sum of the Total Euro Consideration and the Euro Tender Offer Consideration with respect to all Euro Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer to Purchase.

It is expected that payment for Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be made promptly following the Early Tender Time, on September 20, 2022 (the “Early Settlement Date“), and payment for Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time but at or prior to the Expiration Time will be made on October 4, 2022 (the “Final Settlement Date“).

Subject to applicable law and the terms and conditions of the Offer to Purchase, IGT may change the Acceptance Priority Levels and increase or decrease either or both of the Maximum Acceptance Amount and the Dollar Offer Sub Cap without extending the Early Tender Time or the Expiration Time or otherwise providing withdrawal rights. IGT may also terminate the Tender Offer, waive any or all of the conditions of the Tender Offer prior to the Expiration Time, extend the Expiration Time or amend the terms of the Tender Offer.

IGT has retained D.F. King & Co. to act as Tender and Information Agent for the Tender Offer. Questions regarding procedures for tendering Notes may be directed to D.F. King & Co.

Play’n GO Releases its Latest Online Slot Wrappin’ Gold

Published

play’n-go-releases-its-latest-online-slot-wrappin’-gold

 

Play’n GO has released its latest online slot, Wrappin’ Gold, where a newly roused mummy pursues stolen treasures from the tomb to the heavens.

Rudely awakened from centuries of silence, the long-lost mummy of the greedy Pharaoh Khufu discovers his precious gems have been taken by Queen Cleo and her pillaging minions. With patience gone and pride wounded, Khufu sets off in relentless pursuit, ready to chase even Ra across the sky to reclaim what he believes is rightfully his.

Wrappin’ Gold leans into the playful side of ancient Egypt, blending regal swagger with mischievous grave-robber chaos. Khufu is no serene monarch in repose, but a determined figure dragged back into the world by theft and taunting. Against him stands Queen Cleo, framed as a bold instigator whose raids turn temples and tombs into the stage for a high-speed rivalry. The result is a character-led tale of possession, ego, and payback, wrapped in sun-baked mystique and divine-scale theatrics.

This 5-reel video slot centres its storytelling on pursuit and confrontation: a treasure-owner who refuses to be laughed at, a raiding queen who never stops pushing her luck and a sun god who becomes the ultimate line in the sand.

Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “With Wrappin’ Gold, we wanted to spotlight a bold clash of personalities – Khufu’s stubborn determination against Queen Cleo’s audacious mischief – and frame it as a fast, cinematic chase that keeps the story front and centre.”

Wrappin’ Gold is a sharp, character-driven Egyptian caper where pride sparks the pursuit and the sky itself becomes the finish line.

PRAGMATIC PLAY SETS UP SHOP WITH MR NULL’S WICKED WARES

Pragmatic Play, a leading content supplier to the iGaming industry, has opened the doors to the sorcerer’s showroom in Mr Null’s Wicked Wares, where a catalogue of mystery symbols and multipliers conjure up 5,000x win potential.

The magical Mr Null watches over the grid in this 3-4-4-4-3 slot, where mystery symbols on reels 2-4 transform into random paying symbols, carrying 2x-10x multipliers. If two or more mystery symbols contribute to the same winning combination, their multiplier values combine.

Landing three scatters triggers the bonus game with seven free spins, with each scatter that hits during the feature awarding one extra spin.

Starting at 2x, win multipliers above reels 2-4 are progressive throughout the bonus game. Each subsequent winning mystery symbol increases the respective reel multiplier by +1x, applying to future mystery symbols that land on the same reel.

In select markets, players can activate a range of special bets, guaranteeing mystery symbols on each spin and increasing the minimum multiplier, or they can jump straight into Free Spins or Super Free Spins, which sees the starting multiplier increased to 5x.

Mr Null’s Wicked Wares is the latest addition to Pragmatic Play’s award-winning slots portfolio, following the release of Jelly Express and Sweet Bonanza 2500.

Sharon McHugh, Director of Public Relations at Pragmatic Play, said: Mr Null’s Wicked Wares combines mystery symbols and multipliers with an eye-catching and atmospheric theme, while the growing multiplier meters keep the momentum building during the feature. It’s a distinctive addition to our portfolio, and one we’re confident players will enjoy.”

CasinoRank’s BettingRanker: Live Betting Becomes Core of Global Sports Wagering

Published

casinorank’s-bettingranker:-live-betting-becomes-core-of-global-sports-wagering

 

Live betting has become the dominant force in global sports wagering, according to a report from CasinoRank’s BettingRanker. New data shows that 47% of global online wagers were placed in-play in 2024, generating around $27.1 billion in gross win, with the share continuing to grow into 2025–2026.

BettingRanker’s analysis highlights a clear shift towards real-time wagering, with forecasts suggesting in-play betting will exceed 50% of global activity by 2028. In mature markets, this transition is already complete.

Key findings:

• In-play betting reached 47% of global wagers in 2024

• Europe (54%) and North America (53%) already exceed majority share

• Football drives 56% of total betting activity, generating $53B globally

• Mobile accounts for 58% of European gambling revenue, rising to 66% by 2028

• Operators report up to 65% of turnover coming from live betting

• Markets with strong in-play products see higher regulated participation

The growth is driven by better product design and infrastructure. Operators now offer micro-markets (next play, point or action), integrate live streaming, and deliver real-time odds updates at scale. Mobile usage plays a central role, as betting increasingly happens during live events, on the go, or alongside second-screen viewing.

At the same time, regulation is becoming stricter. Some U.S. states are moving to limit or ban in-play betting, especially micro-betting. Industry data suggests that restricting these products may push users toward offshore platforms rather than reducing demand.

Ethan Moore, Sports Analytics Specialist at BettingRanker, notes that live betting has evolved faster than regulation, raising questions about whether growth will remain within regulated markets.
