Important Information for US Investors
In the event that DraftKings enters into any transaction with respect to Entain (a “Transaction”), DraftKings may be required to file certain relevant documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Such documents, however, are not currently available. INVESTORS ARE URGED TO READ ANY DOCUMENTS REGARDING A TRANSACTION IF AND WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE, BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. Investors will be able to obtain a free copy of such filings without charge, at the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov) once such documents are filed with the SEC.

No securities to be issued in connection with a Transaction have been registered under U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), and no securities will be offered or sold in the United States in connection with a Transaction unless pursuant to registration under the U.S. Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act. A Transaction involving a scheme of arrangement may involve the issuance of securities in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by Section 3(a)(10) thereof, and would be subject to local disclosure requirements (which disclosure requirements would be different from those of the United States). A Transaction involving a tender offer would be subject to applicable rules under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the U.S. Exchange Act”), including any applicable exemptions provided under Rule 14d-1(d) thereunder.
