Notice of Kambi Group Plc Extraordinary General Meeting 2023
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 Monday 19 June 2023 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 Monday 29 May 2023
• 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 Monday 29 May 2023. 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 Monday 29 May 2023 and can do so by (i) e-mail to [email protected] 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 Monday 29 May 2023 by (i) e-mail to [email protected] 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 www.kambi.com 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 [email protected] not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the Meeting and in default shall not be treated as valid

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 3,127,830 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 2023 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 3 April 2023, 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 3,127,830 which is equivalent to 10% of total shares as at the date of the notice to the 2023 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 3,127,830; and
(e) the authority conferred by this resolution shall expire on the date of the 2024 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 11 May 2023 (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.

Tom Horn Rolls Out Wild Winter Magic in Wild Snowflakes
Tom Horn Gaming, a leading igaming software supplier, has unveiled its latest game, Wild Snowfakes, just in time for the winter season. A winter-themed slot transports players to a serene snowy wonderland filled with excitement and rewards.
Expanding Wilds and QuickX™ Bonus Buy Feature
With expanding wilds and the supplier’s proprietary bonus buy feature, QuickX™, Wild Snowflakes delivers thrilling gameplay and allows players to tailor their journey based on their preferences.
This medium-to-high variance game is played across a 5×3 gaming grid, populated with frosty fruit symbols and snowflakes, which act as wilds. When a wild snowflake lands as part of a winning combination on the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th reel, it expands to fill the entire reel, transforming other symbols above and below into wild snowflakes for bigger wins.
Players in applicable jurisdictions can activate one of three expanding wild features with 2x, 3x, or 5x multipliers using the QuickX™ bonus buy feature. This proprietary mechanic allows players to purchase direct access to bonus rounds, bypassing the base game grind. QuickX™ empowers players to customise their gameplay, offering a shortcut to increased winning potential. The cost of activating QuickX™ is dynamically calculated based on the player’s original bet size, multiplied by the chosen bonus buy multiplier.
A Winter-Themed Classic Slot with a Contemporary Twist
“Wild Snowflakes is a celebration of the beauty and magic of winter, brought to life through stunning visuals and an immersive theme. By combining the charm of a classic slot with engaging features, we’ve designed a game that’s both nostalgic and exciting. It’s the perfect addition to any operator’s portfolio this winter season, “ said Katarina Slaninova, Head of Marketing at Tom Horn Gaming.
The game will be available for distribution through Tom Horn Gaming’s extensive partner network from 21 November.

Bitblox unveil new partnership with Timeless Tech
Bitblox, the pioneering software studio responsible for introducing a new wave of crypto-based price prediction games to the online casino world, has announced it has agreed a huge new deal that will see its full range of titles added to the Timeless Tech portfolio.
As a forward-thinking aggregator that prides itself on continually broadening the gaming verticals that it’s able to supply to customers, the partnership will allow Timeless Tech to offer releases like Up or Down?, Up or Down? Turbo and 3 in a Row to its casino clients going forward.
With these four additions as well as all future releases from Bitblox at their disposal, operators who use Timeless Tech to power their game aggregation needs will now be able to further engage their customers with a unique selection of titles that combine elements of both chance and skill.
Perfectly positioned to capitalise on the iGaming industry’s growing interest in cryptocurrency, all Bitblox releases require players to try and correctly predict Bitcoin’s price movement over a fixed window of time and have been built to appeal to both casino customers and sports bettors alike.
Although no prior knowledge of the Bitcoin market is needed to play, the presence of real-time price data enables users to follow the chart and make better informed decisions, meaning they have a more active role in the outcome of each round than they would with a traditional RNG title.
As a result, Bitblox’s games manage to fill a gap in the market that’s both fun and strategic while also supplying an exciting new vertical for operators looking to engage with a younger, crypto-curious audience. Their addition to the Timeless Tech portfolio should serve to see their current popularity grow further as they find their way to new customers in a variety of markets worldwide.
Brandt Page, Chief Executive Officer at Bitblox Games, said: “At Bitblox, we already know we’ve come up with a concept that holds genuine appeal to both sports bettors and casino customers alike, so the next step is obviously ensuring that our games get out to as wide an audience as possible.
“Our new partnership with Timeless Tech will enable us to do just that by making our full portfolio of releases available to a wide number of operators globally, so we’re very excited to see what the uptake is and we’re really looking forward to hearing back from customers on how they perform.”
Nicola Cainero, COO at Timeless Tech, said: “At Timeless Tech, we’re always looking to integrate innovative content that pushes the boundaries of gaming, and Bitblox aligns perfectly with our goal of providing unique and engaging experiences to both players and operators alike.
“By adding their releases to our platform, we can further broaden the gaming verticals that we supply to partners, providing them with fresh content that will add an exciting dimension to their current libraries while also attracting a new wave of players who are interested in cryptocurrency.”

Innovative B2B worldwide iGaming marketplace provider agrees deal with leading live game supplier to further strengthen the range of titles available to operators
With the BETBAZAR marketplace going from strength to strength this year following a flurry of promising partnerships, the innovative iGaming company has announced another new addition after putting pen to paper with live casino supplier, ICONIC21.
Known throughout the industry for providing one of the most comprehensive selections of live dealer games around, ICONIC21 offers everything from classic titles like roulette and blackjack to Asian favourites such as Sic Bo and even boasts a suite of releases featuring bonus multipliers.

Of course, while the provider’s staple table game options will undoubtedly prove popular with customers, it’s perhaps the “Gravity Series” of games that will provide operators with the easiest way to differentiate themselves in the live casino market by offering something fresh and unique.
Boasting stunning visual effects, attractive backdrops and sky-high multipliers that can be triggered across a wide range of bets, all “Gravity Series” titles offer an exciting twist on classic game formats that can boost engagement through their potential maximum wins of up to 1,000x.

“With ICONIC21’s expansive library providing everything from classic table games to Asian favourites as well as unique titles that offer additional bonus multipliers for increased user engagement, we’re sure their games will go on to be a big hit with customers and players alike.”
Alina Mihaela Popa, Chief Commercial Officer at ICONIC21, said: “Having built up a market-leading collection of live casino games that encompasses everything from blackjack and roulette to specialised offerings like The Kickoff and Crash Live, we’re thrilled to now be able to get our titles out to an even wider audience by offering them to operators through the BETBAZAR marketplace.
“BETBAZAR’s impressive outreach and strong standing within the iGaming community will ensure that more prospective partners now have access to all of our releases, empowering them to offer a more engaging user experience to customers that can be fully customised to suit their needs.”
