The parties consummated the HotPlay Share Exchange on June 30, 2021. The Issuer issued an aggregate of 52,000,000 shares of common stock (on a pre-split basis) to the HotPlay Stockholders on a pro rata basis effective June 30, 2021.

In connection with the HotPlay Share Exchange, on January 8, 2021, HotPlay and Tree Roots entered into a Note Purchase Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, dated February 1, 2021 (the “Original Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Tree Roots agreed to subscribe for and to purchase upon the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange a promissory note of HotPlay (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of US $12,000,000. Under the Original Note Purchase Agreement, upon the closing of the HotPlay Share Exchange, all principal and accrued interest under the Note would be exchanged for shares of common stock of the Issuer at a rate of $1.25 per share.
