GAME DIGITAL PLC
Directorate Change
12 April 2018
GAME Digital plc (the "Company") announces that it has been
notified that Duodi Investments S.à r.l. ("Duodi") has disposed of
its entire holding in the Company. Duodi is an investment vehicle
that is ultimately wholly-owned by Elliott International, L.P. and
(via a participation interest with Elliott International, L.P.)
Elliott Associates, L.P. (collectively, "Elliott"). As a result,
the relationship agreement entered into on 6 June 2014 between the
Company, Duodi and Baker Partners LP (the "Relationship Agreement")
has terminated, meaning that Duodi's right to appoint a board
representative and board observer has fallen away.
Consequently, James Shinehouse (Duodi's current board
representative) is stepping down as Non-Executive Director of the
Company, with effect from 12 April 2018.
Martyn Gibbs, Chief Executive Officer of GAME Digital, said:
"Elliott has been an engaged investor, and I would like to thank
them for their support of GAME as we developed the operations and
strategy of the business over the last six years. We have devised a
strong growth strategy and are now well positioned to drive the
transformation of our business, as we move from a seller of
physical products to a provider of gaming experiences."
