Ladies and Gentlemen:

Genius Sports Limited, a non-cellular company limited by shares incorporated and registered under the laws of the Island of Guernsey (the “Company” or “we”), plans to solicit consents (the “Consents”) from the holders of outstanding warrants (the “Warrants”) (as described in the Offering Documents (as defined below), the “Consent Solicitation”) to amend the Warrant Agreement to shorten the Exercise Period (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement) of the Warrants (the “Warrant Amendment No. 2” and the Warrants, as so amended, the “Amended Warrants”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offering Documents, if Consents are received from the holders of at least 50% of the number of the then outstanding Warrants (which is the minimum number required to amend the Warrant Agreement), the Warrant Amendment No. 2 shall be adopted.

Conditioned upon obtaining the requisite consent to the Warrant Amendment No. 2 in the Consent Solicitation, the Company plans to unilaterally reduce the exercise price of the Amended Warrants and allow the holders of the Amended Warrants to exercise the Amended Warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement (the “Exercise”).

Certain terms used herein are defined in Section 20 hereof.

Any reference herein to the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated therein by reference which were filed under the Exchange Act on or before the filing of the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Effective Date, or the issue date of the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the initial filing of the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Effective Date, or the issue date of the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by reference.

1. Appointment as Solicitation Agent.

(a) BofA Securities, Inc. will act as the exclusive solicitation agent for the Consent Solicitation (the “Solicitation Agent” or “you”) in accordance with your customary practices, including without limitation to use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit Consents pursuant to the Consent Solicitation and to assist in the distribution of the Offering Documents and to perform such services as are customarily performed by investment banking firms acting as solicitation agents of a Consent Solicitation of like nature. For the avoidance of doubt, the Solicitation Agent will not solicit exercises of the Warrants or Amended Warrants or take any other actions as your agent with respect to the Exercise in each case following the expiration of the Consent Solicitation.

(b) You agree that all actions taken by you as Solicitation Agent have complied and will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, regulations and rules of the United States, including, without limitation, the applicable rules and regulations of the registered national securities exchanges of which you are a member and of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”).

(c) The Solicitation Agent, in its sole discretion, may continue to own or dispose of, in any manner it may elect, any Warrants or Amended Warrants it may beneficially own at the date hereof or hereafter acquire, in any such case, subject to applicable law. The Solicitation Agent has no obligation to the Company, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, to exercise or refrain from exercising Amended Warrants beneficially owned by it in any Exercise or to deliver Consents in any Consent Solicitation. The Solicitation Agent acknowledges and agrees that if the Consent Solicitation and/or Exercise is not consummated for any reason, the Company shall have no obligation, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, to acquire any Warrants or Amended Warrants from the Solicitation Agent or otherwise to hold the Solicitation Agent harmless with respect to any losses it may incur in connection with the resale to any third parties of any Warrants or Amended Warrants.

(d) The Company agrees that it will not file, use or publish any material in connection with the Consent Solicitation and/or Exercise, use the name BofA or BofA Securities, Inc. or refer to you or your relationship with the Company, without your prior written consent to the form of such use or reference. There shall be no fee for any such permitted use or reference other than as set forth herein.

2. Compensation. The Company shall pay to you in respect of your services as Solicitation Agent the fee set forth in the letter agreement, dated November 11, 2022, between the Company and the Solicitation Agent. The Company shall also promptly reimburse you, without regard to the consummation of the Consent Solicitation, for (i) your reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in preparing for and performing your functions as Solicitation Agent; and (ii) the reasonable fees, costs, and out-of-pocket expenses of your external legal counsel, White & Case LLP, for their representation of you incurred in connection with the Consent Solicitation, not to exceed $200,000, in the aggregate, without the prior written consent of the Company.

(h) Testing-the-Waters Materials. The Company (i) has not alone engaged in any Testing-the-Waters Communication with any person other than Testing-the-Waters Communications with the consent of the Solicitation Agent with entities that are reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or institutions that are reasonably believed to be accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act and (ii) has not authorized anyone other than the Solicitation Agent to engage in Testing-the-Waters Communications.

(i) Financial Statements. The financial statements included or incorporated by reference in each of the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, together with the related schedules and notes thereto, comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and present fairly in all material respects the

consolidated financial position of the Company and its wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Subsidiaries” and each, a “Subsidiary”) as of the dates shown and the statement of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the periods shown, and such financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby except for any normal year end adjustments in the Company’s quarterly financial statements or as may be expressly stated in the notes thereto. The other financial information included or incorporated by reference in each of the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus has been derived from the accounting records of the Company and its Subsidiaries present fairly in all material respects the information shown thereby. Except as included therein, no historical or pro forma financial statements or supporting schedules are required to be included in each of the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. All disclosures contained in the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus regarding “non-GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the rules and regulations of the Commission) comply in all material respects with Regulation G of the Exchange Act and Item 10 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act, to the extent applicable. Nothing has come to the attention of the Company that has caused the Company to believe that the statistical, industry-related and market-related data included or incorporated by reference in each of the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus are not based on or derived from sources which the Company reasonably and in good faith believes to be reliable and accurate and such data is consistent with the sources from which they are derived, in each case in all material respects.

(k) Organization and Good Standing. Each of the Company and each Subsidiary has been (i) duly incorporated or formed, as the case may be, is validly existing and in good standing (to the extent the concept of good standing or any functional equivalent is applicable in such jurisdiction) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, as the case may be, with the power (corporate or other) and authority to own or lease its properties and to conduct its business as described in each of the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, and (ii) duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other entity for the transaction of business and is in good standing (to the extent the concept of good standing or any functional equivalent is applicable in such jurisdiction) under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases properties or conducts any business so as to require such qualification, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

(l) Capitalization. The Company has an authorized capitalization as set forth in the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus and all of the issued shares of capital stock of the Company have been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, and conform in all material respects to the description of the capital stock contained in the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus. Except as described in or expressly contemplated by the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, there are

no outstanding rights (including, without limitation, pre-emptive rights), warrants or options to acquire, or instruments convertible into or exchangeable for, any shares of capital stock or other equity interest in the Company or the Subsidiaries, or any contract, commitment, agreement, understanding or arrangement of any kind relating to the issuance of any shares of capital stock of the Company or the Subsidiaries, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or any such rights, warrants or options; and all of the issued shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable (except, in the case of any foreign Subsidiary, for directors’ qualifying shares) and are owned directly or indirectly by the Company, free and clear of any liens, encumbrances, equities or claims, except for such liens, encumbrances, equities or claims described in the Offering Documents. The Amended Warrants, when issued in the manner set forth in the Offering Documents, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and by equitable principles of general applicability, and will conform in all material respects to the description of the Amended Warrants contained in the Offering Documents. The Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Amended Warrants as contemplated by the Offering Documents have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered as contemplated therein, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and will conform in all material respects to the description of the Ordinary Shares contained in the Offering Documents; neither the filing of the Registration Statement nor the issuance of the Ordinary Shares as contemplated by the Offering Documents will give rise to any preemptive or similar rights, other than those which have been waived or satisfied.

(m) Required Filings. The Company has filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 13e-4(c)(1) under the Exchange Act (or Rule 425 under the Securities Act) or otherwise all written communications made by the Company or any affiliate of the Company in connection with or relating to the Consent Solicitation that are required to be filed with the Commission, in each case on the date of their first use.

The Company maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that (i) complies with the requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to the Company, (ii) has been designed by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and (iii) is designed to provide reasonable assurance that (A) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, (B) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets, (C) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (D) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company maintains a system of “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) that has been designed to comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to the Company, and such disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries is made known to the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer by others within those

entities, and such disclosure controls and procedures are effective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective and except as disclosed in the Prospectus, including the information incorporated by reference therein, the Company is not aware of any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting that have not been remediated (it being understood that this paragraph shall not require the Company to comply with Section 404(b) of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 as of an earlier date than it would otherwise be required to so comply under applicable law). Since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in or incorporated by reference in the Pre-Effective Registration Statement, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, except as disclosed therein, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially and adversely affected, or is reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

(hh) Insurance. The Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are commercially reasonable and customary for the conduct of their collective business; and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

In such event, the Solicitation Agents shall be entitled to publicly disclose the cancellation of its participation in the Consent Solicitation via press release, subject to prior notification of the Company.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Solicitation Agent, the directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates of the Solicitation Agent and each person who controls the Solicitation Agent within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Solicitation Agent may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal, state or foreign statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) relate to, arise out of, or are based upon (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Post-Effective F-3 Amendment, the Schedule TO, the Rule 165 Material, and all other documents filed or to be filed with any federal, state or local government or regulatory agency or authority in connection with the Consent Solicitation, each as prepared or approved by the Company or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (3) the Company’s failure to make or consummate the Consent Solicitation or the withdrawal, rescission, termination, amendment or extension of the Consent Solicitation or any failure on the Company’s part to comply with the terms and conditions contained in the Offering Documents, (4) any action or failure to act by the Company or its directors, officers, agents or employees or by any indemnified party at the request or with the consent of the Company, or (5) otherwise related to or arising out of the Exercise, the Consent Solicitation, and/or the Solicitation Agent’s engagement hereunder or any transaction or conduct in connection therewith, except that clauses (3) and (4) shall not apply with respect to the portion of any losses that are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified party, and in the case of clause (1), (2), (3), (4) or (5) of this sentence, the Company agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Offering Documents, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Solicitation Agent Information. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have.

(b) The Solicitation Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, employees and agents and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Solicitation Agent, but only with reference to the Solicitation Agent Information and only with respect to the Consent Solicitation. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Solicitation Agent may otherwise have.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any

obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 7 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and the Solicitation Agent agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively, the “Losses”) to which the Company and the Solicitation Agent may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Solicitation Agent from the Consent Solicitation, on the one hand, and the Company from the Exercise and the Consent Solicitation, on the other. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Solicitation Agent shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Solicitation Agent on the other in connection with the statements, omissions, actions or failure to act that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Solicitation Agent shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total value paid or proposed to be paid to holders of Warrants or Amended Warrants pursuant to the Consent Solicitation (whether or not consummated) bears to the fees actually received by the Solicitation Agent pursuant to Section 2 hereof (exclusive of amounts paid for reimbursement of expenses or paid under this Agreement), and the relative benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be all remaining benefits of the Consent Solicitation not allocated to the Solicitation Agent pursuant to the foregoing and all benefits of the Exercise. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the total value paid or proposed to be paid to holders of Warrants or Amended Warrants pursuant to the Consent Solicitation shall equal (i) if the Consent Solicitation is consummated, the total market value of the Ordinary Shares (as of the Expiration Date) issued, or (ii) if the Consent Solicitation is not consummated, the total market value (as of the date when the Consent Solicitation is terminated or

otherwise withdrawn by the Company) of the Ordinary Shares, based on the maximum number of Warrants or Amended Warrants that could be exercised in the Exercise and the Consent Solicitation as described in the Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus immediately before the termination or withdrawal of the Consent Solicitation. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or any other alleged conduct relates to information provided by the Company, or other conduct by the Company, on the one hand, or the Solicitation Agent on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Solicitation Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above (other than with respect to uncovered losses), in no event shall BofA Securities, Inc. be responsible under this paragraph for any amounts in excess of the amount of the compensation actually paid by the Company to BofA Securities, Inc. in connection with the engagement (exclusive of amounts paid for reimbursement of expenses under the Agreement, including this Section 7, and amounts paid under this Section 7). Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 7, each person who controls the Solicitation Agent within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of the Solicitation Agent shall have the same rights to contribution as such Solicitation Agent, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each officer and director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

8. Certain Acknowledgments. The Company understands that you and your affiliates (together, the “Group”) are engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research). Members of the Group and businesses within the Group generally act independently of each other, both for their own account and for the account of clients. Accordingly, there may be situations where parts of the Group and/or their clients either now have or may in the future have interests, or take actions, that may conflict with our interests. For example, the Group may, in the ordinary course of business, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment businesses for their own account or on behalf of other clients, including, but not limited to, trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of the Company, or other entities connected with the Consent Solicitation.

In recognition of the foregoing, the Company agrees that the Group is not required to restrict its activities as a result of this engagement, and that the Group may undertake any business activity without further consultation with or notification to the Company. Neither this Agreement, the receipt by the Group of confidential information nor any other matter shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including without limitation any duty of trust or confidence) that would prevent or restrict the Group from acting on behalf of other customers or for its own account. Furthermore, the Company agrees that neither the Group nor any member or business of the Group is under a duty to disclose to the Company or use on behalf of the Company any information whatsoever about or derived from those activities or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with such activities. However, consistent with the Group’s long-standing policy to hold in confidence the affairs of its customers, the Group will not use confidential information obtained from the Company except in connection with its services to, and its relationship with the Company.

The Company hereby acknowledges that you are acting as principal and not as a fiduciary of the Company, and the Company’s engagement of you in connection with the transactions contemplated herein is as an independent contractor, on an arms-length basis under this Agreement with duties solely to the Company, and not in any other capacity including as a fiduciary. Neither this Agreement, your performance hereunder nor any previous or existing relationship between the Company, and any member of or business within the Group will be deemed to create any fiduciary relationship. Neither this engagement, nor the delivery of any advice in connection with this engagement, is intended to confer rights upon any persons not a party hereto (including security holders, employees or creditors of the Company) as against the Group or their respective directors, officers, agents and employees. Furthermore, the Company agrees that it is solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the transactions contemplated herein (irrespective of whether any member of or business within the Group has advised or is currently advising the Company on related or other matters).

9. Termination; Representations, Acknowledgments and Indemnities to Survive.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Solicitation Agent is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies its clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of its clients, as well as other information that will allow the Solicitation Agent to properly identify its clients.
