Item
1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As
previously disclosed, Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the
“Underwriting Agreement”) dated April 14, 2020 with Maxim Group LLC on behalf of itself and Joseph Gunnar &
Co., LLC (collectively, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Underwriters in a
firm commitment underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) an aggregate of 1,980,000 units, with each unit consisting
of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and two warrants
(“Unit A Warrant” and “Unit B Warrant”, and collectively with the Common Stock the “Units”),
each to purchase one share of Common Stock, at a public offering price of $4.25 per share. In addition, the Underwriters were
granted a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 297,000 shares of Common Stock, and/or 297,000 Unit A Warrants, and/or
297,000 Unit B Warrants, or any combination thereof, to cover over-allotments, if any (the “Over-Allotment Option”).
The Units were offered and sold to the public pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-231167),
filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 2, 2019, as amended, which became effective on April 14,
2020.
The
Offering closed on April 16, 2020. Prior to the closing of the Offering, on April 16, 2020, the Company entered into a warrant
agent agreement (the “Warrant Agent Agreement”) with VStock Transfer, LLC (“VStock”), to serve as the
Company’s warrant agent for the Unit A Warrants and the Unit B Warrants. Upon the closing of the Offering, VStock issued
the Unit A Warrants, which trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol GMBLW and the Unit B Warrants, which are not tradable.
The foregoing description of the Warrant Agent Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of the Warrant Agent Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item
8.01 Other Events.
On
April 14, 2020, pursuant to and in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters provided
notice that they would partially exercise the Over-allotment Option to purchase 209,400 additional Unit A Warrants and 209,400
additional Unit B Warrants at a price of $0.01 for each of the Unit A and Unit B Warrants. The Offering and the Over-Allotment
Option closed on April 16, 2020. The Company has received gross proceeds of approximately $8.42 million from the Offering to date,
including the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, prior to deducting underwriting discounts and commission and offering expenses
payable by the Company.
On
April 16, 2020, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Offering and the exercise of the Over-Allotment
Option. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
