On January 3, 2022, Nithinan
“Jess” Boonyawattanapisut, Co-Chief Executive Officer of NextPlay Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”)
assumed the role of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”), thereby replacing William Kerby, the Company’s
other Co-Chief Executive Officer, who stepped down from the PEO role. Ms. Boonyawattanapisut and Mr. Kerby will continue to serve as Co-Chief
Executive Officers of the Company and members of the Company’s Board of Directors.
Ms. Boonyawattanapisut’s
assumption of the Company’s PEO role was based on various considerations, including her familiarity with the Company’s financial
statements and operations post-acquisition of HotPlay Enterprise Limited (“HotPlay”), which closed on June 30, 2021, as previously
disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
There is no arrangement
or understanding between Ms. Boonyawattanapisut, or any other person, pursuant to which Ms. Boonyawattanapisut was selected to serve as
the new PEO of the Company. There are no plans, contracts or arrangements or amendments to any plans, contracts or arrangements, entered
into with Ms. Boonyawattanapisut in connection with her appointment as the Company’s PEO, nor are there any grants or awards made
to Ms. Boonyawattanapisut in connection therewith.

of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto
