To avoid any doubts and misunderstanding on applying the formula, attached in Annex B is an agreed calculation example. For the removal of any doubt, the Parties hereby clarify that the intention of the calculation of
Net Working Capital is to ensure that the appropriate Party bears the expense or receives the income and the Parties will ensure that the calculation will not include any amounts that have already been paid or received by the relevant Party prior to
the calculation of the Net Working Capital. For example, an accrued expense of Seller in connection with the Business (for the period ends on the Closing date), that was actually paid by the Seller after Closing will not be deducted from the
calculation of the Net Working Capital and deferred revenues of Seller in connection with the Business (for the period ends on the Closing date), that were actually collected and kept by Seller after Closing will not be added to the calculation of
the Net Working Capital.
(iii) Within 45 Business Days from the Closing Date, the Seller will prepare and deliver to Buyer a calculation of the Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Net Working
Capital”). The information included in the Closing Net Working Capital shall (i) be prepared in accordance with US GAAP and Seller’s past practices, (ii) fairly and accurately reflect the information included therein as of the Closing Date, and
(iii) serve as the basis for the calculation of the final Consideration to be calculated in accordance with Section 4.1 (if any as applicable).
(iv) The Seller shall provide the Buyer and its accountants, at the Buyer’s expense, reasonable access to the books and records of SharpLink, MTS Asia and Integratrak used to prepare the
Closing Net Working Capital calculation. The Buyer and its accountants will complete their review within 45 Business Days after receipt by the Buyer of the Closing Net Working Capital calculation from the Seller.
(v) If the Buyer disagrees with the Seller’s determination of the Closing Net Working Capital, the parties shall apply the procedure as pursuant to Subsection 4.6 above.
4.9. Each Party shall be liable for any Taxes imposed on it in connection with the Contemplated Transactions. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right
to deduct and withhold Taxes from any payments to be made hereunder if such withholding is required by law, including, without limitation, the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance [New Version] 5721- 1961. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such
withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to Seller in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.
4.10. Allocation of Consideration. Buyer shall allocate the Consideration and the Assumed Liabilities among the Purchased Assets and will provide Seller with an allocation thereof (the “Allocation
Statement”) within six (6) months of the Closing Date ("The Allocation Date"). Seller will have a period of twenty (20) Business Days following the Allocation Date to notify the Buyer in writing that Seller objects to the allocation set forth
in the Allocation Statement, and upon delivery of such notice, Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of such objection notice by Buyer. In the event that
Xxxxx and Seller are unable to resolve such dispute within such twenty (20) Business Days, Buyer and Seller shall jointly retain an independent accounting firm to resolve the disputed items. Upon resolution of the disputed items, the allocation
reflected on the Allocation Statement shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm accrued in connection with the review of the Allocation Statement shall be borne by (i) Buyer, to the
extent the Allocation Statement is adjusted following such review, or (ii) Seller, to the extent the Allocation Statement is not adjusted following such review. Buyer and Seller shall file all Tax Returns (including amended returns and claims for
refund) and information reports in a manner consistent with this Allocation Statement. None of Seller, Buyer nor any of their Affiliates will take any position, whether on any Tax Return, in any audit or other administrative or judicial proceeding,
which is inconsistent with such allocation unless expressly required pursuant to applicable Law.

including, without limitation, its completeness, fitness for particular use, the extent of work and investment Buyer may be required to invest and incur in order to use or benefit from any such Seller Owned Transferred IP, to the extent such benefit

8.5. Post-Closing Assistance. From and following the Closing Date, Seller and its representatives and Affiliates shall be given reasonable access to and copies of information and documents related to the

8.7. Employees.
8.7.1. Following the signing of this Agreement, and in coordination with the Buyer in advance, Seller shall commence a termination process for each of the Employees that
specifies that each of the Employees has the option to either sign an employment agreement with the Buyer and waive his or her right to a hearing prior to termination or choose to participate in a hearing prior to termination (Employees that will

occur of: (i) the Closing Date and (ii) following the end of the Hired Employee’s prior notice period. Nothing herein will be construed as a representation or guarantee by Seller that (i) some or all of the Employees will accept an offer of
employment with Buyer, or (ii) some or all of the Hired Employees will continue in employment with Buyer for any period of time following the Closing Date.
8.7.2. Buyer will enter into employment agreements (in a form determined by the Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion), with each of the Hired Employees pursuant to which

23
8.7.3. Before the Closing, Seller shall take all other actions required by applicable Law to terminate the Hired Employees’ employment or engagement with the Seller and shall
pay all amounts due to the Hired Employees upon termination, including, inter alia, all wages earned prior to termination, payment of severance in accordance with applicable legal requirements, payment of vacation days (including any accrued vacation

payroll deductions and deposits to funds and insurance policies (such as employee benefit plan contributions and employment taxes which shall be paid when due) with respect thereto. In the event the Buyer and any Hired Employee agreed to assign the
obligation to pay bonuses or commissions to Buyer, to the extent this payment can be assigned and the assignment is in written form reasonably satisfactory to Seller, the payment made by Buyer to the Hired Employee in the amount of the payment due
from Seller will be deducted from the Consideration.

Seller for said employment term, in a form attached as Schedule 8.7.4 (each such release and waiver, an “Employee Certificate”). Nothing in this Section shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to procure that the Hired
Employees sign Employee Certificates and the Parties acknowledge that they cannot compel Hired Employees to sign Employee Certificates. The Buyer may elect not to engage any Hired Employee that does not sign an Employee Certificate and the Seller
shall have no claims against Buyer in such respect.
8.7.5. Seller shall have the sole responsibility for all claims, liabilities, and costs, which may arise from: (i) termination of employment of any of the Hired Employees; and
(ii) any legal or contractual obligations owed to the Hired Employees, including, inter alia, all wages, prior notice period (or payment in lieu thereof), vacation days (including any accrued vacation days), recreation pay, and (if any): bonuses,
commissions, pay for other compensated absences and other remuneration (including mandatory or discretionary benefits) due to such Hired Employees with respect to their employment or engagement with the Seller through the termination thereof,
including any related payroll deductions (such as employee benefit plan contributions and employment taxes which shall be paid when due) with respect thereto. Buyer shall inform the Seller, promptly following receipt of any demand and/or claim that
relates to issues that are within Seller’s responsibility based on this Section 8.7.5. The Seller shall be entitled to notify the Buyer within seven (7) Business Days that it wishes to assume the defense against the demand and/or claim at its own
expense, including by appointing an attorney on its behalf.
8.7.6. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in all respects relating to any actions to be taken pursuant to this Section 8.7 and in achieving an orderly transition.
Seller will not take any action that is intended to interfere with Xxxxx’s efforts to retain any of the Employees.
24
8.7.7. The notice period applicable to each Hired Employee shall be the period specified in each such Hired Employee’s employment agreement or under applicable Law. In the event that the Closing shall take place
prior to the lapse of any or all of the aforementioned notice periods to which the Hired Employees are entitled, then, Seller shall continue to employ such Hired Employees until the lapse of the applicable notice period, and the Hired Employees
shall be considered as if they were outsourced to Buyer, and Buyer shall reimburse Seller, in cash, for the full “Employer’s Cost” in connection with such Hired Employees payable by Seller to the Hired Employees during such period, plus VAT against
a tax invoice (each Hired Employee’s “Employer’s Cost” shall be the cost of employment of such Hired Employee during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the termination date of the notice period of such Hired Employee, excluding
any payments to the Hired Employee in connection with the termination of his or her employment, all as set forth in his or her last pay-slip prior to Closing, ) at the Closing Date.
8.7.8. The Parties acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 8.7 with respect to the Hired Employees are included for the sole benefit of Buyer and
Seller, and that nothing herein, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights (i) in any other Person, including, without limitation, any Hired Employees, potential Hired Employees, or former Hired Employees,
or (ii) to continued employment with Buyer.
8.7.9. Subject to the Buyer employing the Hired Employees as set forth in Section 8.7.2 above, the Buyer will be solely liable for any and all payments and expenses in
connection with the Hired Employees, commencing as of the Closing (whether directly or indirectly through the mechanism set forth in Section 8.7.7 above). It is hereby agreed that Seller will be entitled to request Buyer to provide services to Seller
subsequent to Closing through Liat Xxx Xxxx and Buyer will make Liat available to Seller as required. Seller will pay for such services on an hourly basis calculated based on the cost of employment of Liat per hour + VAT. Payment for the services
will be made each month for the calendar month preceding it, by no later than the 15th of such month and against a tax invoice. To the extend Seller requires the reasonable cooperation of any other Hired Employee, Buyer will make such Hired Employee
available as well as long as there is no unreasonable disruption in the Hired Employees work for the Buyer.
8.8. Parent Guarantee. Parent hereby undertakes to ensure full compliance of Buyer with all of its undertakings, warranties and covenants contained herein and guarantees such compliance and will be
responsible and liable to Seller in the event of non-compliance by Buyer. Parent undertakes (and will cause Buyer to comply) that Buyer will not dispose of the Business or any part thereof until January 1, 2024. In the event of non-compliance, Seller
will be permitted to approach Parent and demand fulfillment of the guarantee and performance by Parent of the relevant undertakings of Buyer only after a written demand was sent to Buyer and the Buyer did not meet its obligations during a period of 7
days thereafter. This guarantee and undertaking will remain in effect regardless of whether Parent holds all or any portion of Buyer.
