Transaction Details

Under the terms of the agreement, Siyata issued 67,302,300 of its Common Shares, no par value, on a pre-split basis, to the shareholders of Core Gaming. The number of issued Common Shares was based on an exchange ratio calculated as $160,000,000 divided by the volume-weighted average closing price of the Common Shares on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC for the 10-day trading period immediately preceding the effective time of the merger.

Reverse Stock Split

After the completion of the merger and related issuance of the Common Shares, the Company will effect a 1-for-4 reverse stock split ("Reverse Stock Split") of the Common Shares. The Reverse Stock Split will become effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, October 7, 2025.

The Reverse Stock Split is primarily intended to bring the Company into compliance with the $4.00 minimum bid price requirement to meet Nasdaq's initial listing requirements. The Reverse Stock Split will automatically combine and convert the 79,689,523 current outstanding Common Shares (including the shares issued to the Core Gaming shareholders) into 19,922,381 outstanding Common Shares. The Reverse Stock Split will not change the par value of the Common Shares nor the authorized number of Common Shares or shares of preferred stock or any series of preferred stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. All fractional shares will be rounded up to the next higher whole number, at a participant level.
