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series may be subject to modified proration if the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn (with the aggregate principal amount of the Euro Notes converted to US dollars using the Exchange Rate) as of the Early Tender Time or the Expiration Time (as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Acceptance Amount to be exceeded or the aggregate principal amount of the Dollar Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Time or the Expiration Time (as applicable) would cause the Dollar Offer Sub Cap to be exceeded.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.

BETBY ACHIEVES GLI CERTIFICATION FOR PERU, EXPANDING ITS FOOTPRINT IN LATIN AMERICA’S REGULATED MARKETS

Published

BETBY, a top-tier sports betting supplier, has received certification from Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) to provide its sportsbook solution in Peru’s regulated market. This certification marks another significant milestone in BETBY’s continued expansion across Latin America.

With the Peruvian government formalizing its regulated sports betting framework, GLI certification has emerged as a crucial requirement for providers aiming to serve licensed operators in the country. BETBY is now authorized to deliver its innovative and tailored sportsbook solutions in Peru’s rapidly expanding regulated betting market.

GLI’s certification, recognized as a benchmark for excellence, validates BETBY’s ability to meet Peru’s strict technical requirements, including those related to sportsbook functionality, information security management systems, and information security standards. Peru’s regulatory framework is primarily based on GLI-33 certification, which BETBY successfully achieved in early 2025. As a result, the company was well-positioned to swiftly meet the country’s compliance standards.

“Peru represents a key step in our broader Latin American growth strategy, as the region continues to adopt clearer regulatory frameworks for online sports betting,” said Ilze Ramolina, Head of Legal & Compliance at BETBY. “Securing GLI certification for this market, which has a growing digital infrastructure and tech-savvy audience, allows us to support licensed operators in launching compliant and competitive offerings from day one. This is yet another step forward in our mission to deliver tailored, localized solutions that meet both local requirements and regional expectations across the region.”

This achievement follows BETBY’s previous certification for the Brazilian market, solidifying its presence in two of Latin America’s most promising jurisdictions. The supplier’s flexible and highly localised sportsbook platform, combined with its commitment to compliance, positions it as a trusted partner for operators looking to thrive in newly regulated environments.

By entering the Peruvian market, BETBY continues to demonstrate its strategic focus on Latin America, providing hyper-localized, engaging, and secure sports betting experiences for both operators and players.
