Upon completion of the share transfers, Mr. Varanese will own or have control over 908,547 ordinary shares, representing 3 per cent of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

Since 2013, Mr. Varanese has been chairman of Siren E&P Ltd., an upstream oil and gas company based in London. He is a graduate of Harvard University.

When speaking about eQube and the transaction, Mr. Varanese commented: "eQube has a great strategy, and has already shown revenue growth progression both in existing and new markets through new contracts and the launch of new products. The company has an experienced management team and is licensed in many key regulated gaming jurisdictions, including Las Vegas. Becoming a key shareholder of eQube at this early stage of its growth is very exciting."
