FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

2 August 2021

Publication of Supplementary Circular and Notice of Adjourned General Meeting

Further to the announcement made on 15 July 2021, Playtech plc ("Playtech" or "the Company") announces today that it has posted the supplementary circular to shareholders (the "Supplementary Circular"), which contains a notice that the adjourned General Meeting to approve the Disposal of Finalto (the "Resolution") will be resumed at 10 a.m. on 18 August 2021 (the "Adjourned General Meeting").

A Form of Proxy for the General Meeting accompanied the original circular published on 24 June 2021 (the "Original Circular").

Shareholders who have already submitted a Form of Proxy for the General Meeting and wish to change their voting instruction, can obtain a new Form of Proxy either (i) by contacting the Company's registrars, Computershare Investor Services (Jersey) Limited at The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY or on 0370 707 4040 or (ii) by downloading a blank pdf Form of Proxy which will be available on Playtech's website at http://www.investors.playtech.com/shareholder-information/general-meeting.aspx. Shareholders who have already submitted their proxy electronically at www.investorcentre.co.uk/eproxy and wish to change their voting instruction, may do so by submitting a revised Form of Proxy electronically at www.investorcentre.co.uk/eproxy. Shareholders who hold their Ordinary Shares in CREST and have already submitted instructions through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service and wish to change their voting instruction, may do so by submitting a revised instruction through CREST, following the procedures set out in the Notice of General Meeting included at the end of the Original Circular.

Shareholders who have already submitted a Form of Proxy for the General Meeting and do not wish to change their voting instruction do not need to take any further action as their Form of Proxy will continue to be valid in respect of the Adjourned General Meeting.

If Shareholders are yet to submit the Form of Proxy for the General Meeting sent with the Original Circular, it is very important that the Form of Proxy is completed and returned to ensure the outcome of the adjourned General Meeting reflects the wishes of the Shareholders.

The Board's stated strategy remains to simplify Playtech's business and to dispose of Finalto for the maximum available proceeds. The proposal received from Gopher Investments ("Gopher") is uncertain in terms of its deliverability, principally because it is not binding in nature and remains subject to a number of conditions. Under the restrictions in the sale and purchase agreement entered into with the Consortium on 26 May 2021 (which include the Company not encouraging, soliciting or responding to an approach from another party to purchase Finalto), the Company is not entitled to directly engage with Gopher. However, at the request of the Company to so engage, the Consortium granted permission for the Company to raise a limited set of clarificatory questions, which were focussed on determining the ultimate ownership and funding structure, source of funds of Gopher and its ability to obtain the required regulatory clearances. Gopher provided some initial responses to those questions and, again with the Consortium's consent, Playtech sent some further questions to request additional clarity. Over the last three weeks, Playtech and Gopher have had dialogue on the basis upon which Gopher would be prepared to provide this additional information, but the Company has not received responses to these additional questions. This means Playtech has not yet been able to achieve the necessary clarity on Gopher's ultimate ownership and funding structure, source of funds or ability to obtain the required regulatory clearances.

Accordingly, the Board is currently not in a position to change its recommendation to Shareholders in respect of the Disposal and the Resolution as set out in the Original Circular.

In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Board has decided that shareholders are not able to attend the Adjourned General Meeting in person. As such, members are strongly encouraged to appoint the Chairman of the Adjourned General Meeting to act as their proxy as any other named person will not be permitted to attend the meeting. Further information on how to vote by proxy can be found in the Notice of Adjourned General Meeting.

The Supplementary Circular and the Notice of Adjourned General Meeting have been submitted to the Financial Conduct Authority's National Storage Mechanism (the "NSM") and are available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

The Original Circular, the Supplementary Circular and the Notice of Adjourned General Meeting will also be available for viewing on Playtech's website at http://www.investors.playtech.com/shareholder-information/general-meeting.aspx.
