Drawing up and approval of the voting list 4. Approval of the agenda 5. Election of one person to approve the minutes 6. Determination that the Meeting has been duly convened As Special Business, to consider the following resolution which will be proposed as Extraordinary Resolution: Resolution (a) THAT: 7. The name of the Company be changed from Unibet Group plc to Kindred Group plc and that the Memorandum of Association of the Articles of Association be amended so as to reflect such change of name. 8. Closing of the meeting Agenda item no 7 The rationale for the Board of Directors of Unibet Group plc to propose the change are: · “Unibet Group” is a growing and changing company that today has 13 brands in the portfolio, many of them acquired. · “Unibet” is one of the strongest customer brands in online sports betting, casino, bingo and poker. · There is a risk of confusion regarding the difference between “Unibet Group” and “Unibet” leading to slower growth for both “Unibet Group” and “Unibet”. Therefore the Board of Directors propose a name change of “Unibet Group” to “Kindred Group” as well as a revised identity to better cater for a group company that can serve a multitude of brands. The name change is a central part of the Group’s growth strategy and will not affect any of the customer facing brands. Instead it creates clarity and flexibility to accommodate for maximum efficiency and lower risks and creating better conditions for future growth. By order of the Board Unibet Group plc Malta, October 2016 NOTE 1. A member 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 member.
