The Reporting Persons acquired beneficial ownership of the securities of the Company described herein pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 19, 2018 and amended by the Amendment dated August 5, 3029 (as so amended, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Black Ridge Merger Sub Corp. (“Merger Sub”), Allied Esports Media, Inc. (“AEM”), Noble Link Global Limited (“Noble”), Ourgame, and Primo Vital. On August 9, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), such parties completed merger transactions (the “Mergers”) and other related transactions (together with the Mergers, the “Transactions”) under which, among other things, AEM became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company assumed ownership of the businesses of Allied Esports (“Allied Esports”) and the World Poker Tour® (“WPT”). The consideration for the issuances of securities to the Reporting Persons is described below.

Issuances in the Transactions. In the Transactions, among other things, the Reporting Persons received the following equity securities of the Company or rights to receive such equity securities in the future:

1. In the Mergers, on the Effective Date, the Company issued shares of common stock to the former owners of Allied Esports and WPT, including 9,543,692 shares issued to Primo Vital and 208,272 shares issued to Mr. Yang.

2. In the Mergers, on the Effective Date, the Company issued to the former owners of Allied Esports and WPT five-year warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock at a price per share of $11.50 (the “Warrants”), including 3,125,640 Warrants issued to Primo Vital and 68,211 Warrants issued to Mr. Yang.

3. In connection with the Mergers, the former owners of Allied Esports and WPT will be entitled to receive certain additional shares of common stock (“Contingent Shares”) if the last reported sales price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market equals or exceeds $13.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, dividends, and the like) for 30 consecutive trading days at any time during the five-year period after the Effective Date. This includes 3,163,602 Contingent Shares that may be issued to Primo Vital and 69,039 Contingent Shares that may be issued to Mr. Yang. The Contingent Shares are not included in the beneficial ownership totals of the Reporting Persons.

4. On the Effective Date, the Company issued 1,842,831 shares of common stock to Primo Vital in cancellation of $12,144,260 of debt owed by Allied Esports and WPT.

5. On the Effective Date, the Company assumed $10,000,000 of the debt obligations of Ourgame and Noble Link Global Limited (including an additional $1,200,000 of accrued interest) and repaid Ourgame a balance of $23,800,000 owed under the Merger Agreement by (a) paying $3,500,000 in cash to Ourgame and its designees, (b) issuing to Ourgame’s designees 2,928,679 shares of the Company’s common stock (including the 1,842,831 shares issued to Primo Vital referred to in paragraph 4 above), and (c) Ourgame retaining $1,000,000 of the proceeds of such loans to pay its transaction expenses incurred in the Mergers. Black Ridge Oil & Gas, Inc., a founding stockholder of the Company, also agreed to transfer an aggregate of 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock held by it to Ourgame, which transfer was completed on the Effective Date.

6.  10% of the shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants issued as consideration for the Mergers (the “Escrow Securities”), were placed in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement (“Escrow Agreement”) entered into by the Company, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent, and Mr. Yang as a representative of the former owners of Allied Esports and WPT. Of the shares described in paragraph 1 above, 954,367 of the shares issued to Primo Vital and 20,827 of the shares issued to Mr. Yang are included in the Escrow Securities. Of the Warrants described in paragraph 2 above, 312,565 of the Warrants issued to Primo Vital and 6,821 of the Warrants issued to Mr. Yang are included in the Escrow Securities. The Escrow Securities provide a fund of payment to the Company with respect to its post-closing rights to indemnification under the Merger Agreement for breaches of representations and warranties and covenants by the other parties to the Merger Agreement. Claims for indemnification will be reimbursable to the full extent of the damages in excess of a $500,000 deductible (but in no event in excess of the securities held in escrow). The Escrow Securities shall be released from escrow, subject to reduction for shares cancelled for claims ultimately resolved and those still pending resolution at the time of the release, on August 9, 2020 (the one-year anniversary of the Effective Date).

Proxies. On November 5, 2018, substantially all of the stockholders of AEM granted to Ourgame irrevocable proxies (the “Proxies”) to exercise all voting and other governance rights with respect to their shares through June 1, 2020. Following the Effective Date, the Proxies apply to the common stock of the Company held by such stockholders. Therefore, under the Proxies, Ourgame has voting power with respect to an additional 2,055,493 shares of common stock of the Company through June 1, 2020.
