 Set forth below is biographical

Speach's history with our company and background, coupled with his extensive marketing experience in the esports industry, provide
him with the qualifications to serve as a director.

position from October 2020 until March 2021. Mr. Lourie has extensive management, accounting and financial experience. Mr. Lourie currently

private companies. Mr. Lourie served as an audit partner of the PCAOB registered firm MaloneBailey from November 2014 through April 2017,
where he oversaw audits and financial reporting of SEC registrants. In addition, he served as the Corporate Controller of a public company

president and interim chief financial officer (August 2016 to May 2017), and executive vice president, interim chief financial officer

a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point where he earned his Bachelor of Science. Mr. Downs earned his MBA at Columbia

at the law firm of Kaempfer Crowell. Mr. Neilander is the former Chairman of the Nevada State Gaming Control Board (GCB). His practice

Mr. Neilander was Chief of the GCB Corporate Securities Division, which regulates the publicly traded gaming companies that operate in
Nevada. Mr. Neilander holds a J.D. from the University of Denver College of Law and a B.A. from the University of Northern Colorado.
We believe Mr. Neilander's gaming background and regulatory experience provide him with the qualifications to serve as a director.

of Backflips Inc., a swimwear manufacturer. A C-suite executive working with major Brands that have included Nike, Reebok, Ralph Lauren,

and Economics where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration. We believe Mr. Nicklas' marketing background
and business experience with major brands provide him with the qualifications to serve as a director.

 No director is related
to any other director or executive officer of our company or our subsidiaries, and, there are no arrangements or understandings between
a director and any other person pursuant to which such person was elected as director.

 Code of Ethics

 We have adopted a written
code of business conduct and ethics that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer,
principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the code
of business conduct and ethics is available on the Corporate Governance section of our website, which is located at www.ebet.gg. If we
make any substantive amendments to, or grant any waivers from, the code of business conduct and ethics for any officer or director, we
will disclose the nature of such amendment or waiver on our website or in a current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. The inclusion
of our website address in this proxy statement does not include or incorporate by reference the information on our website into this
proxy statement.

 Nomination of Director Candidates

 We receive suggestions
for potential director nominees from many sources, including members of the Board, advisors, and stockholders. Any such nominations,
together with appropriate biographical information, should be submitted to the Secretary of the Company (the "Corporate Secretary")
in the manner discussed below. Any candidates submitted by a stockholder or stockholder group are reviewed and considered in the same
manner as all other candidates.

 Qualifications for consideration
as a Board nominee may vary according to the particular areas of expertise being sought as a complement to the existing board composition.
However, minimum qualifications include high level leadership experience in business activities, breadth of knowledge about issues affecting
the Company, experience on other boards of directors, preferably public company boards, and time available for meetings and consultation
on Company matters. Our Nominating and Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of diversity
in identifying director candidates, but seeks a diverse group of candidates who possess the background, skills and expertise to make
a significant contribution to the Board, to the Company and our stockholders. Candidates whose evaluations are favorable are recommended
by our Nominating and Governance Committee to the full Board for consideration. The full Board selects and recommends candidates for
nomination as directors for stockholders to consider and vote upon at the annual meeting.

 A stockholder wishing
to nominate a candidate for election to our Board of Directors at any annual meeting at which the Board has determined that one or more
directors will be elected must submit a written notice of his or her nomination of a candidate to the Corporate Secretary, providing
the candidates name, biographical data and other relevant information together with a consent from the nominee. The submission must comply
with our Bylaws and must be received at our principal executive offices 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the mailing date of
our previous year's proxy statement so as to permit the Board of Directors time to evaluate the qualifications of the nominee.

 We have not employed an
executive search firm, or paid a fee to any other third party, to locate qualified candidates for director positions.

 Board Committees

 We established a Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee, an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. Our Board of Directors has adopted and approved
a charter for each of these standing committees. The charters, which include the functions and responsibilities of each of the committees,
can be found in the "Investors - Corporate Governance" section on our web site at www.ebet.gg.

 Audit Committee.
The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Nicklas, Neilander and Downs. Mr. Downs is the chairperson of the Audit Committee. Each
member of the Audit Committee is independent as defined by the Nasdaq Rules. In addition, each member of the Audit Committee satisfies
the additional requirements of the SEC and Nasdaq Rules for audit committee membership, including the additional independence requirements
and the financial literacy requirements. The Board has determined that at least one member of the Audit Committee, Mr. Downs, is an "audit
committee financial expert" as defined in the SEC's rules and regulations. The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is
to oversee the quality and integrity of our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audit of our financial statements. The
Audit Committee is responsible for selecting, compensating, overseeing and terminating the selection of our independent registered public
accounting firm.

 Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee. The members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs. Nicklas, Neilander and Downs.
Mr. Neilander is the chairperson of the Nominating and Governance Committee. Each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
is independent as defined by Nasdaq Rules. The primary functions and responsibilities of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
are to: (a) determine the qualifications, qualities, skills, and other expertise required to be a director; (b) identify and screen individuals
qualified to become members of the Board; (c) make recommendations to the Board regarding the selection and approval of the nominees
for director; and (d) review and assess the adequacy of our corporate governance policies and procedures.

 Compensation Committee.
The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Nicklas, Neilander and Downs. Mr. Nicklas is the chairperson of the Compensation
Committee. Each member of the Compensation Committee is independent as defined by Nasdaq Rules.

 The Compensation Committee
is responsible for, among other things, reviewing and making recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to the annual compensation
for our Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee also is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board
of Directors the annual compensation and benefits for our other executive officers. The Compensation Committee also, among other things,
reviews compensation of the Board, reviews and makes recommendations on all new executive compensation programs that are proposed for
adoption and administers the Company's equity incentive plans. The Compensation Committee is responsible for reviewing director
compensation for service on the Board and Board committees at least once a year and to recommend any changes to the Board.

 Our Chief Executive Officer
reviews the performance of our other executive officers (other than himself) and, based on that review, our Chief Executive Officer makes

 Narrative to Summary Compensation Table

 Aaron Speach, Chief
Executive Officer and President

 On November 5, 2021, we
entered into an amended and restated employment agreement, effective October 1, 2021, with Aaron Speach pursuant to which Mr. Speach
agreed to continue to serve as our Chief Executive Officer for an initial term of three years. The agreement provides for an initial
annual base salary of $315,000, which may be increased to $350,000 retroactively as of the effective date provided the closing and consummation
of the share purchase transaction by and between Company and Aspire Global plc occurs (which closing occurred on November 29, 2021).
Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Speach is eligible for an annual bonus of up to 75% of his base salary, as determined solely at the discretion
of the Compensation Committee. Pursuant to the agreement, if Mr. Speach is required to be located outside of the United States for a
period of 30 consecutive days or more, we will pay him a pro-rated monthly travel stipend of $3,500 for each month that he is so required
to live outside of the United States. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Speach was eligible to receive the following potential performance
stock grants: (i) 3,334 shares of Company common stock at such date as the Company reaches total gross revenues of $10,000,000 in any
trailing 12 month period during the term of the employment agreement; and (ii) 3,334 shares of Company common stock at such date as the
Company reaches total gross revenues of $20,000,000 in any trailing 12 month period during the term of the employment agreement. These
goals were achieved in 2022. Contemporaneous with the execution of the agreement, Mr. Speach received a restricted stock unit award (the
"RSU Grant") for 3,334 shares of Company common stock. The RSU Grant vests in four equal annual installments, provided Mr.
Speach is employed on each such vesting date. If Mr. Speach's employment is terminated at our election without "cause"
(as defined in the agreement), Mr. Speach shall be entitled to receive severance payments equal to 150% of the balance due of Mr. Speach's
base salary for the remainder of the initial term of three years.

 On June 30, 2023, the
Company agreed to enter into amendments to the employment agreements with Messrs. Speach and Lourie (each, a "Retention Letter").

 Pursuant to the Retention
Letter with Mr. Speach, Mr. Speach was entitled to receive a cash retention bonus of $175,000 payable 20% upon execution of the Retention
Letter, 40% after three months, and the remainder after six months. Mr. Speech was paid $105,000 of the bonus during the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2023.

 Any unpaid retention bonus
will be paid earlier if the Company completes a strategic transaction (a "Transaction"), or if the executive is terminated
without "cause".

 In addition, pursuant
to the Retention Letter with Mr. Speach, Mr. Speach will be eligible to receive a cash transaction bonus equal to 0.95% of the gross
proceeds of any Transaction, provided that the net proceeds from the Transaction are at least $26.0 million; and further provided that
the executive may receive an additional 0.25% of the gross proceeds if the net proceeds from the Transaction are not less than the amount
that would result in (a) the Company repaying its outstanding debt and all trade creditors, and (b) the Series A preferred holders and
common shareholders receiving consideration of not less than the value of their equity holdings as of June 30, 2023 (the "Deal
Threshold").

 If Mr. Speech is terminated
without "cause" prior to June 30, 2024, the Company agreed to pay a cash severance payment of the greater of 1.0 times Mr.
Speach's base salary or the severance payable pursuant to Mr. Speach's current employment agreement.

 Matthew Lourie, Chief Financial Officer

 On September 9, 2022,
we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Matthew Lourie pursuant to which Mr. Lourie agreed to serve as Chief Financial Officer
of the Company commencing on such date. The agreement provides for a monthly salary of $16,000. Mr. Lourie may receive a cash bonus of
$20,000 and a restricted stock unit grant for 667 shares of common stock upon a successful transition of services to a full time Chief
Financial Officer, provided that the final determination on the amount of the bonus and grant, if any, will be made by the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors, based on criteria established by the Compensation Committee. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Lourie
received a restricted stock unit award for 1,500 shares of our common stock, which shall vest in six equal monthly installments, provided
Mr. Lourie is employed on each such vesting date. We may terminate the agreement at any time during the term of the agreement on 30 days'
notice.

 On June 30, 2023, the
Company agreed to enter a Retention Letter with Mr. Lourie.

 Pursuant to the Retention
Letter with Mr. Lourie, Mr. Lourie was entitled to an increase in his base salary to $320,000 and to receive a cash retention bonus of
$240,000 payable 20% upon execution of the Retention Letter, 30% after three months, 30% after six months, and the remainder after nine
months. Mr. Lourie was paid $120,000 of the bonus during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023.

 Any unpaid retention bonus
will be paid earlier if the Company completes a Transaction, or if the executive is terminated without "cause".

 In addition, pursuant
to the Retention Letter with Mr. Lourie, Mr. Lourie will be eligible to receive a cash transaction bonus equal to 0.95% of the gross
proceeds of any Transaction, provided that the net proceeds from the Transaction are at least $26.0 million; and further provided that
the executive may receive an additional 0.25% of the gross proceeds if the net proceeds from the Transaction are not less than the amount
that would result in (a) the Company repaying its outstanding debt and all trade creditors, and (b) the Series A preferred holders and
common shareholders receiving consideration of not less than the value of their equity holdings as of June 30, 2023.

 If Mr. Speech is terminated
without "cause" prior to June 30, 2024, the Company agreed to pay a cash severance payment of 50% of Mr. Lourie's base
salary

 person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to beneficially own more than five percent of our shares of common stock.

 Beneficial ownership is
determined according to the rules of the SEC, and generally means that person has beneficial ownership of a security if he or she possesses
sole or shared voting or investment power of that security and includes options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within
60 days. Each director or officer, as the case may be, has furnished us with information with respect to beneficial ownership. Except
as otherwise indicated, we believe that the beneficial owners of common stock listed below, based on the information each of them has
given to us, have sole investment and voting power with respect to their shares, except where community property laws may apply.

 Item 13.

 Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

 We engage a firm owned by Matthew Lourie, our
Chief Financial Officer, to provide financial reporting services. For the year ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred consulting
fees of $72,658 and $18,273, respectively.

 Policies and Procedures for Related Party
Transactions

 Our audit committee charter
provides that our audit committee is responsible for reviewing and approving in advance any related party transaction. This will cover,
with certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, any transaction, arrangement or relationship,
or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which we were or are to be a participant, where the amount involved
exceeds $120,000 and a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including, without limitation, purchases
of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees
of indebtedness and employment by us of a related person. In determining whether to approve a proposed transaction, our Audit Committee
will consider all relevant facts and circumstances including: (i) the materiality and character of the related party's direct or
indirect interest; (ii) the commercial reasonableness of the terms; (iii) the benefit or perceived benefit, or lack thereof, to us; (iv)
the opportunity cost of alternate transactions; and (v) the actual or apparent conflict of interest of the related party.

 Director Independence

 Our board of directors
undertook a review of the composition of our board of directors and its committees and the independence of each director. In determining
independence, although we are not listed on a national securities exchange, our board of directors utilized the rules of the Nasdaq Stock
Market, or the Nasdaq Rules, which require a majority of a listed company's board of directors to be composed of independent directors.
Under the Nasdaq Rules, a director will only qualify as an independent director if, in the opinion of our board of directors, that person
does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a
director. The Nasdaq Rules also require that audit committee members satisfy independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a
member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board
of directors, or any other board committee, accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from
the listed company or any of its subsidiaries or otherwise be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.
In considering the independence of compensation committee members, the Nasdaq Rules require that our board of directors must consider
additional factors relevant to the duties of a compensation committee member, including the source of any compensation we pay to the
director and any affiliations with our company. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his background,
employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board of directors has determined that each of our directors, with the
exception of Mr. Speach, are independent as defined under the Nasdaq Rules.
