Summary of Material Change

 

On June 21, 2018, the Company announced the pricing of an underwritten public offering of common shares at a price of US$38.00 per common share (the “Offering”). On June 26, 2018, the Company announced the closing of the Offering. A total of 17,000,000 common shares were sold by the Company and 8,000,000 common shares were sold by certain shareholders of the Company (the “Selling Shareholders”). The net proceeds to the Company, after underwriting discounts and commissions, but before estimated expenses of the Offering payable by the Company, were approximately US$622 million.

The Company and the Selling Shareholders have granted the underwriters for the Offering an over-allotment option to purchase up to 1,875,000 and 1,875,000 additional common shares, respectively. The over-allotment option is exercisable for a period of 30 days from June 21, 2018, the date of the pricing of the Offering.

The Stars Group intends to use the net proceeds from the treasury offering, together with debt financing and cash on hand to fund the previously announced acquisition of Sky Betting & Gaming (the “Acquisition”). If for any reason the Acquisition does not close, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes.
