GENIUS SPORTS LIMITED

Overview

Genius is a business-to-business ("B2B") provider of scalable, technology-led products and services to the sports, sports betting and sports media industries. Genius is a fast-growing business with significant scale, distribution and an expanding addressable market and opportunity.

Genius' mission is to be the official data, technology and commercial partner that powers the global ecosystem connecting sports, betting and media. In doing so, the Company creates engaging and immersive fan experiences while simultaneously providing sports leagues with reliable and sustainable revenue streams.

Genius sits at the heart of the global sports betting ecosystem where the Company has deep, critical relationships with over 400 sports leagues and federations, over 800 sportsbook brands and over 170 marketing customers (which includes some of the aforementioned sportsbook brands). The following are examples of services Genius provides its partners globally:

What Genius Does

Genius is a data and technology company that enables consumer-facing businesses such as sports leagues, sportsbook operators, and media companies to engage with their customers. The scope of Genius' software bridges the entire sports data journey, from intuitive applications that enable accurate real-time data capture, to the creation and provision of in-game betting odds and digital content that help Genius' customers create engaging experiences for the ultimate end-user, who are primarily sports fans.

The collection of high quality, live sports data has become indispensable for sportsbooks as in-game betting has continued to grow rapidly across the world. In mature markets such as the United Kingdom, major sportsbooks have historically reported that in-game betting currently represents the majority of Gross Gaming Revenue ("GGR"), which represents the difference between the amount of money players wager and the amount that they win, making it a critical offering for all major sportsbooks. In-game betting typically increases in popularity as markets mature, and it is expected that the United States will follow suit.

Genius' live data services, alongside other value-add solutions, are deeply integrated into nearly all regulated sportsbook operators, comprising over 800 sportsbook brands worldwide. None of these sportsbooks currently take Genius' entire product offering and so these integrations provide a clear runway for future growth. Genius provides customized solutions depending on its customers' requirements, ranging from supplying live

6

data feeds, in-game oddsmaking and risk management, to managing a sportsbook's entire back-end operation. Genius customers include global sportsbook brands such as bet365, DraftKings, Flutter (including FanDuel), and Entain, as well as leading B2B gaming technology platform providers such as OpenBet, Kambi and DraftKings B2B (formerly SBTech).

In order to supply sportsbooks with a sufficient volume of sports data, Genius has built a broad portfolio that covers over 230,000 events, and over 200,000 events under official data and/or streaming rights agreements (of which approximately 123,000 are exclusive). This includes official data and trading for leagues such as the English Premier League, NFL, and Major League Baseball, as well as many other events that are popular with bettors. Due to the need for sportsbooks to provide their customers with deep betting markets and content at all times of the day, Genius believes that its critical mass of events is vital to the operation of these companies.

Genius has established long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with sports leagues and federations and has acquired the rights to collect and monetize their data. Genius utilizes a network of more than 7,000 highly trained statisticians across over 140 countries who work on the ground, pitch-side and court-side, to capture data in real-time using Genius' software.

In exchange for these sports data rights, for the majority of Genius' league partners, Genius provides vital technology infrastructure solutions, including competition management software, scoreboard technology, athlete registration, data collection and distribution, fan-facing websites, officiating, fan engagement tools, performance data tracking solutions, and coaching analysis tools. The integration of sports leagues and robust human infrastructure gives Genius a highly diversified rights portfolio and deep competitive position.

Genius' technology and services extend beyond the symbiotic sports data-sports betting relationship. The Company provides data-driven performance marketing technology and services to a range of advertisers, primarily sportsbooks and iGaming brands, which effectively optimize player acquisition, retention and engagement costs. Genius' multiple data sets, including real-time statistics, betting odds, behavioral data and engagement data, enhance its digital marketing solutions and further deepen its relationships with its customer base. The Company provides sportsbooks, leagues, teams and brands with digital engagement tools, primarily in the form of gamification, to help capture monetizable audience data, activate sponsorships and strengthen long-term engagement.

Through its Second Spectrum optical tracking technology, Genius Sports works with leagues, broadcasters, and teams to automatically capture real-time insights. Among other things this is used by coaches and analysts to understand team and player performance. The combination of computer vision, machine learning, and artificial intelligence technology also enables Genius Sports to power alternative broadcast experiences that combine live game streams with augmented data points, data visualizations, and graphics. These unique broadcast experiences empower leagues to offer greater levels of fan engagement, while simultaneously unlocking new potential revenue streams.

The legal name of the Company is Genius Sports Limited. The Company was incorporated under the laws of Guernsey as a non-cellular company limited by shares on October 21, 2020. The Company's registered office in Guernsey is PO Box 656, East Wing, Trafalgar Court, Les Banques, St Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 3PP. The address of the principal executive office of the Company is Genius Sports Group, 1st Floor, 27 Soho Square London, W1D 3QR, and the telephone number of the Company is +44 (0) 20 7851 4060.

Implications of Being an "Emerging Growth Company" and a Foreign Private Issuer

We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not "emerging growth companies," including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved (to the extent applicable to a foreign private issuer). If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (i) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of the initial public offering of dMY Technology Group, Inc. II, a Delaware corporation, (ii) in which we have total annual gross revenues of at least $1.07 billion or (iii) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year's second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to "emerging growth company" shall have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

We report under the Exchange Act, as a non-US company with foreign private issuer status. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, as long as we qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act we will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to US domestic public companies, including, but not limited to:

We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time as we are no longer a foreign private issuer. We would cease to be a foreign private issuer at such time as (i) more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are held by US residents and (ii) any of the following three circumstances applies: (A) the majority of our executive officers or directors are US citizens or residents, (B) more than 50% of our assets are located in the United States or (C) our business is administered principally in the United States.

Both foreign private issuers and emerging growth companies are also exempt from certain more stringent executive compensation disclosure rules. Thus, even if we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company but remain a foreign private issuer, we will continue to be exempt from the more stringent compensation disclosures required of companies that are not emerging growth companies and will continue to be permitted to follow our home country practice on such matters.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARE CAPITAL AND ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

The following description of the material terms of securities of Genius includes a summary of specified provisions of Genius's Amended and Restated Memorandum of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (together, "Genius Governing Documents"). This description is qualified by reference to the Genius Governing Documents currently in effect, copies of which of are filed as Exhibit 1.1 and 1.2 to our 2023 Annual Report. Terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the 2023 Annual Report.

Overview

We are a non-cellular company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of Guernsey. Our affairs are governed by the Genius Governing Documents and the Guernsey Companies Law. Our register of shareholders is kept at our registered office at PO Box 656, East Wing, Trafalgar Court, Les Banques, St Peter Port, Guernsey, GY1 3PP. The board of directors of Genius (the "Genius Board") is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of any class, with or without a par value. Our ordinary shares have a par value of $0.01 each, our B shares have a par value of $0.0001 and our preferred shares have no par value.

As of May 6, 2024, there were 215,069,836 ordinary shares issued and 210,963,888 ordinary shares outstanding and 18,500,000 B shares issued and outstanding. No preferred shares have been issued.

Shares

General

We are generally not required to issue certificates representing the issued Genius ordinary shares which are listed on the NYSE (unless required to be issued pursuant to the Genius Governing Documents or the rules and regulations of the NYSE). Each shareholder whose shares are not listed on the NYSE is entitled to one certificate for all of the shares of each class in the capital of Genius held by that shareholder. Legal title to the issued shares is recorded in registered form in the register of shareholders of Genius. Subject to certain exceptions described elsewhere in this prospectus, holders of our ordinary shares have no pre-emptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The Genius Board may create and issue additional classes of shares, including series of preferred shares, which could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise capital for corporate purposes or for use in employee benefit plans. Such additional classes of shares will have such voting powers (full or limited or without voting powers), designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as may be determined by the Genius Board. If any preferred shares are issued, the rights, preferences and privileges of holders of ordinary shares will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of such preferred shares.

Dividends

The holders of ordinary shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by the Genius Board, subject to the Guernsey Companies Law and the Genius Governing Documents. Dividends and other distributions authorised by the Genius Board in respect of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares shall be paid in accordance with the Genius Governing Documents and shall be distributed among the holders of ordinary shares on a pro rata basis. The rights of holders of ordinary shares to participate in dividends and distributions may be subject to any preference attaching to any outstanding preferred shares from time to time. The B shares in the capital of Genius Sports Limited do not entitle holders to dividends or distributions.

Voting rights

Ordinary shares entitle the holder (i) on a show of hands, to one vote and (ii) on a poll, to one vote for each ordinary share registered in the name of the holder on all matters upon which the ordinary shares are entitled to

11

vote (whether in person or by proxy). Voting at any shareholders' meeting is by way of poll, unless otherwise determined by the Genius Board or the shareholders of Genius in accordance with the Guernsey Companies Law.

The B shares entitle the holder (i) on a show of hands, to one tenth of a vote and (ii) on a poll, to one tenth of a vote for B share registered in the name of the holder on all matters upon which the B shares are entitled to vote (whether in person or by proxy).

In determining the number of votes cast at a general meeting of shareholders for or against a proposal, holders of ordinary shares who abstain from voting on any resolution will be counted for purposes of determining a quorum but not for the purposes of determining the number of votes cast. No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum of shareholders is present at the time when the meeting proceeds to business. Two or more shareholders present (in person or by proxy) and entitled to vote and who hold in aggregate not less than fifty percent plus one ordinary share of all voting share capital in issue shall be a quorum.

An Ordinary Resolution requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes of shareholders entitled to vote and voting in person or by attorney or proxy at a quorate general meeting or a simple majority of the total voting rights of eligible shareholders (being the shareholders entitled to vote on the circulation date of a written resolution) ("eligible shareholders") by written resolution, while a Special Resolution requires the affirmative vote of a majority of not less than seventy five percent of the votes of the shareholders entitled to vote and voting in person or by attorney or proxy at a quorate general meeting or seventy five percent of the total voting rights of eligible shareholders by written resolution. A Special Resolution is required for important matters such as (without limitation) the removal of a director for cause, merger or consolidation of Genius, change of name or making changes to the Genius Governing Documents or the voluntary winding up of Genius.

Variation of rights

The rights attached to any class of shares (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of that class), such as voting, dividends and the like, may be varied only with the consent in writing of the holders of three fourths of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than three fourths of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class shall not (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of that class) be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking in priority to or pari passu with such previously existing shares.

The rights attached to any class of shares may, however, be varied without the consent of the holders of the issued shares of that class where such variation is considered by the directors of Genius not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights.

Transfer of ordinary shares

Where ordinary shares have been admitted to settlement by means of the uncertificated system operated by DTC (or any other uncertificated system to which our shares are admitted to settlement) (an "uncertificated system"), any shareholder may transfer all or any of his or her ordinary shares in accordance with and subject to the rules issued by DTC (or such other operator as may operate the relevant uncertificated system) (the "Rules") and no written instrument of transfer shall, subject to the Rules, be required. Where any ordinary shares or B shares are not admitted to an uncertificated system, a shareholder may transfer his or her ordinary shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual form or any other form approved by the Board.

In addition, the Genius Governing Documents provide (without limitation) that the Genius Board may, subject to the Rules, decline to recognize any transfer of Genius ordinary shares which are admitted to settlement on an uncertificated system if (i) the transfer is in breach of the Rules or (ii) the transfer would prevent dealings in the share from taking place on an open and proper basis on the NYSE. The transfer of Genius ordinary shares is also subject to any relevant securities laws (including the Exchange Act).

12

Liquidation

On a return of capital on winding up or otherwise (other than on conversion, redemption or repurchase by us of ordinary shares and subject to any agreement between the relevant shareholders and us in respect of the ordinary shares), assets available for distribution among the holders of ordinary shares of Genius shall be distributed among the holders of the ordinary shares of Genius on a pro rata basis.

Share repurchases and redemptions

We may purchase our own ordinary shares on a stock exchange if the acquisition is approved in advance by an ordinary resolution which complies with the requirements of the Guernsey Companies Law (which may be general or limited to shares of a particular class or description). We may also purchase our own ordinary shares in privately negotiated transactions if the terms of the contract to acquire such shares are approved in advance by an ordinary resolution (again, which complies with the requirements of the Guernsey Companies Law).

The Genius Governing Documents provide that Genius ordinary shares are redeemable by agreement between Genius and the relevant shareholder. However, any such redemption would need to be effected on a pro rata basis unless all other shareholders entitled to participate waive their participation rights. The B shares are redeemable or subject to compulsory repurchase by the Company on the exercise of any warrant to which they are stapled.

We may not buy back or redeem any ordinary share unless the Genius Board has made a statutory solvency determination that it is satisfied on reasonable grounds that Genius will, immediately after the buy back or redemption, satisfy the solvency test set out in the Guernsey Companies Law (meaning that we are able to pay our debts as they become due and that the value of our assets is greater than the value of its liabilities).

Conversion

There are no automatic conversion rights which attach to our ordinary shares. The Genius Governing Documents do, however, provide that (i) the whole or any particular class or part of a class of shares may be re-designated as shares of another class and (ii) shares the nominal amount of which is expressed in a particular currency may be converted into shares of a nominal amount of a different currency, in each case where shareholders approve such action by Ordinary Resolution.

Lien, forfeiture and surrender

Genius shall have a first and paramount lien and charge on all shares (not being fully paid) for all moneys, whether presently payable or not, called or payable at a fixed time in respect of those shares. Such lien or charge shall extend to all dividends and distributions from time to time declared in respect of such shares. Unless otherwise agreed, the registration of a transfer of shares shall operate as a waiver of Genius' lien and charge (if any) on such shares.

The directors of Genius may at any time make calls upon the shareholders in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares (whether on account of the nominal value or by way of premium) and each shareholder shall pay to Genius at the time and place appointed the amount called.

If a shareholder fails to pay any call or instalment on the day appointed, the directors of Genius may serve notice requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment as is unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses which may have been incurred by Genius by reason of non-payment. If the requirements of any such notice are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may, at any time before payment has been made and subject to the Guernsey Companies Law, be forfeited by a resolution of the directors of Genius to that effect. Such forfeiture shall include all dividends or other

13

distributions declared in respect of the forfeited share and not actually paid before the forfeiture. A forfeited share shall be deemed to be the property of Genius and, subject to the provisions of the Guernsey Companies Law and the Articles, may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms as the directors of Genius shall think fit. A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a shareholder in respect of those shares but shall remain liable to pay to Genius all moneys which, at the date of forfeiture, were payable by him to Genius in respect of the shares together with interest from the date of forfeiture until payment at such rate as the directors of Genius may determine. The directors of Genius may accept from any shareholder on such terms as shall be agreed a surrender of any shares in respect of which there is a liability for calls. Any surrendered share may be disposed of in the same manner as a forfeited share.

Exchange Controls

There is no exchange control legislation or regulation in Guernsey except by way of such as freezing of funds of, and/or prohibition of new investments in, certain jurisdictions subject to international sanction.

Directors

Appointment and removal

The management of Genius is vested in its board of directors. The Genius Governing Documents provide that there shall be a board of directors consisting of no fewer than two and no greater than 14 directors, unless increased or decreased from time to time by the board of directors or by shareholders in a general meeting by Ordinary Resolution. The Genius Board is comprised of five directors. Presently, dMY Sponsor II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Sponsor"), does not have, and is no longer entitled to appoint, any directors. Maven TopHoldings SARL, an affiliate of Apax Partners LLP, is still entitled to appoint two directors but has not opted to hold any seats. So long as shares of Genius are listed on the NYSE, the Genius Board shall include such number of "independent directors" as the relevant rules applicable to the listing of such shares on the NYSE require.

The directors are divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. Directors were initially assigned to each class in accordance with the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. At the 2022 annual general meeting of shareholders of Genius (held on December 19, 2022), the term of office of the Class I directors expired and two of the three Class I directors were elected for a full term of three years, ending at our 2025 annual general meeting. At the 2023 annual general meeting (held on December 6, 2023), the term of office of the Class II directors expired and one of the three Class II directors was elected for a full term of three years ending at our 2026 annual general meeting. At the 2024 annual general meeting (at a date to be determined), the term of office of the Class III directors will expire and Class III directors will be elected for a full term of three years. At each succeeding annual general meeting, directors will be elected for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at such annual general meeting. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

The Genius Board shall, subject to the terms of the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, applicable law and the listing rules of the NYSE (or any other stock exchange on which our shares are listed) ensure that any individual nominated pursuant to Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement shall be nominated for election as a director at the next annual meeting or extraordinary general meeting called for that purpose. In respect of any position on the Genius Board that is not entitled to be filled by a nomination pursuant to the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, if any, the directors shall have the right to nominate an individual for election as a director at the next annual general meeting or extraordinary general meeting called for that purpose. In both cases, such individual shall be appointed if approved by Ordinary Resolution at such general meeting. If a vacancy arises on the Genius Board, the directors may fill such vacancy in accordance with the terms of the Genius Governing Documents, the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, applicable law and the listing rules of the NYSE (or any other stock exchange on which our shares are listed).

14

A director may be removed from office by the holders of ordinary shares by Special Resolution only for "cause" (as defined in the Genius Governing Documents), subject to certain exceptions and as more fully described in the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. In addition, a director may be removed from office by the Genius Board by resolution made by the directors for "cause" or if a director becomes disqualified (as described in the Genius Governing Documents and the Guernsey Companies Law). The appointment and removal of directors is subject to the Guernsey Companies Law, the Genius Governing Documents, applicable rules of the NYSE (or any other stock exchange on which our shares are listed) and to the provisions of the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. The detailed procedures for the nomination of persons proposed to be elected as directors at any general meeting of Genius are set out in the Genius Governing Documents.

Indemnification of directors and officers

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Genius Governing Documents provide that the directors and officers of Genius shall be indemnified from and against all liability which they incur in execution of their duty in their respective offices, except liability incurred by reason of such director's or officer's negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust.

Alternate directors

Any director (other than an alternate director) may appoint any other person (whether a shareholder of Genius or otherwise and including another director of Genius) to act in his or her place as an alternate director. No appointment of an alternate director shall take effect until the appointing director has lodged the notice appointing his alternate at the registered office of Genius. A director may revoke his or her appointment of an alternate at any time. No revocation shall take effect until the appointing director has lodged the notice revoking the appointment at the registered office of Genius.

An appointed and acting alternate director may (a) attend and vote at any board meeting or, where his appointor would be entitled to attend, meeting of a committee of the directors at which the appointing director is not personally present; (b) sign any written resolution of the directors or a committee of the directors circulated for written consent; and (c) generally perform all the functions of the appointing director in his or her absence. An alternate director, however, is not entitled to receive any remuneration from Genius for services rendered as an alternate director but shall be entitled to be paid all reasonable expenses incurred in exercise of his duties.

A director who is also an alternate director shall be entitled to vote for such other director as well as on his own account, but no director shall at any meeting be entitled to act as alternate director for more than one other director.

Shareholder power to requisition general meetings

The directors of Genius are required to call a general meeting if requisitioned to do so in writing, given by one or more shareholders who together hold more than 10% of such of the capital of Genius as carries the right to vote at such general meeting (excluding any capital held as treasury shares). The requisition must specify the general nature of the business to be dealt with at the meeting, be signed by or on behalf of the requisitioners and must be deposited at the registered office of Genius.

Should the directors of Genius fail to call a general meeting within 21 days from the date of deposit of a requisition to be held within 28 days of the date of the notice convening the meeting, the requisitioners or any of them representing more than one half of the total voting rights of the members who requested the meeting, may call a general meeting to be held within three months from the date on which the directors of Genius became subject to the requirement to call a meeting.

15

Shareholder Proposals

In addition to the above ability for a shareholder to requisition a general meeting for a specific purpose, a proposal may be properly brought before an annual general meeting by any shareholder of Genius who is a shareholder of record on both the date of the giving of the notice by such shareholder provided for in the Genius Governing Documents and the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at such annual general meeting, and who complies with the notice and other procedures set forth in the Genius Governing Documents, which are summarized below. Please see the Genius Governing Documents for the full procedures.

Shareholder

The Genius Governing Documents set forth requirements for shareholders wishing to propose business other than the nomination of directors at an annual general meeting.

In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be brought properly before an annual general meeting by a shareholder, such shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary of Genius.

For matters other than for the nomination for election of a director to be made by a shareholder, to be timely such shareholder's notice shall be delivered to Genius at its principal executive offices not less than ninety (90) days and not more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year's annual general meeting. However, if our annual general meeting occurs on a date more than thirty (30) days earlier or later than our prior year's annual general meeting, then the directors will determine a date a reasonable period prior to our annual general meeting by which date the shareholder's notice must be delivered and publicize such date in a filing pursuant to the Exchange Act, or via press release. Such publication shall occur at least fourteen (14) days prior to the date set by the directors.

To be in proper written form, a shareholder's notice to Genius must set forth as to such matter such shareholder proposes to bring before the annual general meeting:

16

A Shareholder Associated Person of any shareholder includes:

Shareholder's nomination of a director

The Genius Governing Documents also set forth requirements for shareholders wishing to nominate directors. An eligible shareholder who follows these procedures is entitled to have their nomination included in our proxy statement and therefore would not be required to solicit their own proxies in accordance with any applicable laws and rules.

Subject to the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, for a nomination for election of a director to be made by a Genius shareholder (other than directors to be nominated by any series of preferred shares), such shareholder must:

If a shareholder is entitled to vote only for a specific class or category of directors at a meeting of the shareholders, such shareholder's right to nominate one or more persons for election as a director at the meeting shall be limited to such class or category of directors.

To be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of Genius not less than 90 nor more than 120 days prior to the meeting; provided, that if less than 130 days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to shareholders, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the earlier of the day on which such notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made.

To be in proper written form, a shareholder's notice to the Secretary must set forth:

17

Such notice must be accompanied by a written consent of each proposed nominee to being named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected. Genius may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may be reasonably required by Genius to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of Genius in accordance with the rules of the NYSE.

NFL Warrants

Each whole NFL Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one Genius ordinary share at a price of $0.01 per Share (the "NFL Exercise Price"), subject to adjustment described below. Upon each purchase of a NFL Warrant Share pursuant to the exercise of a NFL Warrant, each B share attached to such NFL Warrant shall automatically be repurchased or, in the Company's discretion, redeemed by the Company and cancelled at par value, in each case, in accordance with the Genius Governing Documents. Each NFL Warrant shall be exercisable at the option of the holder from the time such NFL Warrant has vested.

Methods of Exercise

Cash Exercise

The NFL Warrants may be exercised via cash exercise, by the payment to the Company, by certified, cashier's or other check acceptable to the Company or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company, of an amount equal to the aggregate NFL Exercise Price of the Genius ordinary shares being purchased.

Net Issue Exercise

In lieu of exercising the NFL Warrants, the holders may elect to receive ordinary shares equal to the value of the NFL Warrants that are vested and exercisable using the following formula with respect to Genius ordinary shares that are vested and exercisable:

18

Anti-Dilution Adjustments

The number of and kind of securities purchasable upon exercise of any NFL Warrants and the NFL Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time. Subject to the vesting of NFL Warrants upon a Change of Control (as defined in the Warrant Certificate) and subject to a holder's rights pursuant to any other agreement between the holder and the Company, if at any time there shall be a merger or a consolidation of the Company with or into another entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions, then, as part of such merger, consolidation or sale of assets, the holder will be entitled to receive upon exercise of an NFL Warrant, during the period specified in the NFL Warrant and upon payment of the aggregate NFL Exercise Price then in effect, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) of the successor entity resulting from such merger, consolidation or sale, to which the holder as the holder of the Genius ordinary Shares deliverable upon exercise of a NFL Warrant would have been entitled in such merger, consolidation or sale if that NFL Warrant had been exercised immediately before such merger, consolidation or sale. If the number of outstanding Genius ordinary shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share split or reclassification of Genius ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share split, reclassification or similar event, the number of Genius ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each NFL Warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Genius ordinary shares.

If the Company at any time while any NFL Warrants remain outstanding and unexpired pays a dividend with respect to Genius ordinary shares payable in Genius ordinary shares, or make any other distribution with respect to Genius ordinary shares payable in Genius ordinary shares, then the number of Genius ordinary shares underlying each NFL Warrant shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of the shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to the number of Shares that the holder would have held after such dividend or distribution payable in Genius ordinary shares had such holder exercised that NFL Warrant immediately prior to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and the exercise price of each NFL Warrant shall be $0.01 per Genius ordinary share.

If the Company at any time pays a dividend or makes a distribution on the Genius ordinary shares (other than a dividend or distribution in Genius ordinary shares), the holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of any NFL Warrant, in addition to the Genius ordinary shares deliverable upon such exercise, the cash or kind and amount of other securities and property which the holder would have been entitled to receive if the holder had exercised that NFL Warrant immediately prior to the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. The amount of any such other securities and property which the holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon the exercise of an NFL Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time, in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to those with respect to the Genius ordinary shares.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the NFL Warrants. If, upon exercise of the NFL Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, Genius will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Genius ordinary shares to be issued to the warrant holder.

Transfers

The NFL Warrants are non-transferable, except to certain Permitted Transferees (as defined in the Warrant Certificate).

Genius and NFL Enterprises, LLC ("NFL Enterprises") have entered into the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, (i) Genius will file a shelf registration statement for registration of the resale of the NFL Warrant Shares, (ii) Genius will provide NFL Enterprises customary piggyback registration rights with respect to the NFL Warrant Shares and (iii) NFL Enterprises will be subject to a customary lock-up period and certain transfer restrictions.

19

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for Genius ordinary shares is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

Notices

We will give notice of each general meeting by publication on our website and in any other manner that we may be required to follow in order to comply with the Genius Governing Documents, the Guernsey Companies Law and applicable stock exchange and SEC requirements. Each shareholder is deemed to have agreed to accept communication from Genius by electronic means (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by means of a website) in accordance with the Guernsey Companies Law unless the shareholder notifies Genius otherwise. Holders of registered shares may further be provided notice of the meeting in writing at their addresses as stated in our register of shareholders.

Subject to any restrictions imposed on any shares, notice of each general meeting shall be given to our shareholders, persons entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a shareholder, our directors, our auditor (if any) and persons entitled to vote in respect of a share in consequence of the incapacity of a shareholder.

Other Guernsey Law Considerations

Compromises and Arrangements

Where Genius and its creditors or shareholders or a class of either of them propose a compromise or arrangement between Genius and its creditors or its shareholders or a class of either of them (as applicable), the Royal Court of Guernsey (the "Court") may order a meeting of the creditors or class or creditors or of our shareholders or class of shareholders (as applicable) to be called in such manner as the Court directs. Any compromise or arrangement approved by a majority in number representing 75% in value of the members or class of members (excluding any shares held as treasury shares) or creditors or class of creditors (as the case may be), present and voting either in person or by proxy at the meeting, if sanctioned by the Court, is binding on Genius and all the creditors, shareholders or members of the specific class of either of them (as applicable) and any liquidator or administrator and contributories (where relevant) of Genius.

Certain Disclosure Obligations of Genius

We are subject to certain disclosure obligations under Guernsey and US law and the rules of the NYSE. The following is a description of the general disclosure obligations of public companies under Guernsey and US law and the rules of the NYSE as such laws and rules exist as of the date of this document and should not be viewed as legal advice for specific circumstances.

Periodic Reporting under Guernsey Law

Under the Guernsey Companies Law, we are required to submit to the Guernsey Registry before the last day of February in each year an annual validation containing information current on December 31 of the previous year. we are also required to file with the Guernsey Registry details of any change of our directors, or their details, within 14 days of the relevant change and details of any change of its registered office. Certain shareholder resolutions must also be filed with the Guernsey Registry within certain timeframes. For example, a copy of every Special Resolution must be filed with the Guernsey Registry within 30 days of it being passed.

Periodic Reporting under US Securities Law

We are a "foreign private issuer" under the securities laws of the United States and the rules of the NYSE. Under the securities laws of the United States, "foreign private issuers" are subject to different disclosure

20

requirements than US registrants. Genius intends to take all actions necessary to maintain compliance as a foreign private issuer under the applicable corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the rules adopted by the SEC and NYSE's listing standards.

Registration Rights

Certain holders of the Genius Securities, including the Sponsor and NFL Enterprises, are entitled to registration rights pursuant to the Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. In addition, a number of accredited and institutional investor have certain registration rights under those certain subscription agreements dated October 27, 2020 entered into between Genius and such investors. Further, certain holders who have been issued our ordinary shares in connection with the acquisition of Fan Hub and the acquisition of Second Spectrum have certain registration rights under the respective agreements to such transactions.

Listing of Genius Securities

Our ordinary shares are currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol "GENI."

21

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES

The debt securities will be our direct general obligations. The debt securities will be either senior debt securities or subordinated debt securities and may be secured or unsecured and may be convertible into other securities, including our ordinary shares. The debt securities will be issued under one or more separate indentures between our company and a financial institution that will act as trustee. Senior debt securities will be issued under a senior indenture. Subordinated debt securities will be issued under a subordinated indenture. Each of the senior indenture and the subordinated indenture is referred to individually as an indenture and collectively as the indentures. Each of the senior debt trustee and the subordinated debt trustee is referred to individually as a trustee and collectively as the trustees. The material terms of any indenture will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We have summarized certain terms and provisions of the indentures. The summary is not complete. The indentures are subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The senior indenture and subordinated indenture are substantially identical, except for the provisions relating to subordination.

Neither indenture will limit the amount of debt securities that we may issue. We may issue debt securities up to an aggregate principal amount as we may authorize from time to time. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the terms of any debt securities being offered. These terms will include some or all of the following:

22

Senior Debt

We may issue under the senior indenture the debt securities that will constitute part of our senior debt. These senior debt securities will rank equally and pari passu with all our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt.

Subordinated Debt

We may issue under the subordinated indenture the debt securities that will constitute part of our subordinated debt. These subordinated debt securities will be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the subordinated indenture, to all our "senior indebtedness." "Senior indebtedness" is defined in the subordinated indenture and generally includes obligations of, or guaranteed by, us for borrowed money, or as evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or other similar instruments, or in respect of letters of credit or other similar instruments, or to pay the deferred purchase price of property or services, or as a lessee under capital leases, or as secured by a lien on any asset of ours. "Senior indebtedness" does not include the subordinated debt securities or any other obligations specifically designated as being subordinate in right of payment to, or pari passu with, the subordinated debt securities. In general, the holders of all senior indebtedness are first entitled to receive payment in full of such senior indebtedness before the holders of any of the subordinated debt securities are entitled to receive a payment on account of the principal or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the subordinated debt securities in certain events. These events include:

Authentication and Delivery

We will deliver the debt securities to the trustee for authentication, and the trustee will authenticate and deliver the debt securities upon our written order.

Events of Default

When we use the term "Event of Default" in the indentures with respect to the debt securities of any series, set forth below are some examples of what we mean:

23

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (4) above) with respect to the debt securities of any series then outstanding occurs and is continuing, then either the trustee or the holders of not less than 30% in principal amount of the securities of all such series then outstanding in respect of which an Event of Default has occurred may by notice in writing to us declare the entire principal amount of all debt securities of the affected series, and accrued interest, if any, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become immediately due and payable.

If an Event of Default described in clause (4) above occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of all the debt securities then outstanding and accrued interest shall be and become due immediately and payable without any declaration, notice or other action by any holder of the debt securities or the trustee.

The trustee will, within 90 days after the occurrence of any default actually known to it, give notice of the default to the holders of the debt securities of that series, unless the default was already cured or waived. Unless there is a default in paying principal or interest when due, the trustee can withhold giving notice to the holders if it determines in good faith that the withholding of notice is in the interest of the holders.

Satisfaction, Discharge and Defeasance

We may discharge our obligations under each indenture, except as to:

when:

24

In addition, unless the applicable prospectus supplement and supplemental indenture otherwise provide, we may elect either (i) to have our obligations under each indenture discharged with respect to the outstanding debt securities of any series ("legal defeasance") or (ii) to be released from our obligations under each indenture with respect to certain covenants applicable to the outstanding debt securities of any series ("covenant defeasance"). Legal defeasance means that we will be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding debt securities of such series under such indenture and covenant defeasance means that we will no longer be required to comply with the obligations with respect to such covenants (and an omission to comply with such obligations will not constitute a default or event of default).

In order to exercise legal defeasance or covenant defeasance with respect to outstanding debt securities of any series:

We are required to furnish to each trustee an annual statement as to compliance with all conditions and covenants under the indenture.

25

DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

We may issue warrants to purchase debt securities, ordinary shares or other securities. We may issue warrants independently or together with other securities. Warrants sold with other securities may be attached to or separate from the other securities. We will issue warrants under one or more warrant agreements between our company and a warrant agent that we will name in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The prospectus supplement relating to any warrants we offer will include specific terms relating to the offering. These terms will include some or all of the following:

The terms of any warrants to be issued and a description of the material provisions of the applicable warrant agreement will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

26

DESCRIPTION OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS

We may issue purchase contracts for the purchase or sale of debt or equity securities issued by us or securities of third parties, a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities or any combination of the above as specified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Each purchase contract will entitle the holder thereof to purchase or sell, and obligate us to sell or purchase, on specified dates, such securities at a specified purchase price, which may be based on a formula, all as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. A purchase by us, or any of our subsidiaries in certain scenarios, of ordinary shares pursuant to any such purchase contract shall be subject to certain restrictions under Guernsey law that generally apply to a repurchase of shares. We may, however, satisfy our obligations, if any, with respect to any purchase contract, subject to the terms of the purchase contract, by delivering the cash value of such purchase contract or the cash value of the property otherwise deliverable as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will also specify the methods by which the holders may purchase or sell such securities and any acceleration, cancellation or termination provisions or other provisions relating to the settlement of a purchase contract.

The purchase contracts may require us to make periodic payments to the holders thereof or vice versa, which payments may be deferred to the extent set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, and those payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis. The purchase contracts may require the holders thereof to secure their obligations in a specified manner to be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Alternatively, purchase contracts may require holders to satisfy their obligations thereunder when the purchase contracts are issued. Our obligation to settle such pre-paid purchase contracts on the relevant settlement date may constitute indebtedness. Accordingly, pre-paid purchase contracts will be issued under either the senior indenture or the subordinated indenture.

27

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

As specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may issue units consisting of one or more ordinary shares, debt securities, warrants, purchase contracts or any combination of such securities. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe:

28

FORMS OF SECURITIES

Each debt security, warrant and unit will be represented either by a certificate issued in definitive form to a particular investor or by one or more global securities representing the entire issuance of securities. Certificated securities in definitive form and global securities will be issued in registered form. Definitive securities name you or your nominee as the owner of the security, and in order to transfer or exchange these securities or to receive payments other than interest or other interim payments, you or your nominee must physically deliver the securities to the trustee, registrar, paying agent or other agent, as applicable. Global securities name a depositary or its nominee as the owner of the debt securities, warrants or units represented by these global securities. The depositary maintains a computerized system that will reflect each investor's beneficial ownership of the securities through an account maintained by the investor with its broker/dealer, bank, trust company or other representative, as we explain more fully below.

Registered Global Securities

We may issue registered debt securities, warrants and units in the form of one or more fully registered global securities that will be deposited with a depositary or its nominee identified in the applicable prospectus supplement and registered in the name of that depositary or nominee. In those cases, one or more registered global securities will be issued in a denomination or aggregate denominations equal to the portion of the aggregate principal or face amount of the securities to be represented by registered global securities. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for securities in definitive registered form, a registered global security may not be transferred except as a whole by and among the depositary for the registered global security, the nominees of the depositary or any successors of the depositary or those nominees.

If not described below, any specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any securities to be represented by a registered global security will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those securities. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all depositary arrangements.

Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be limited to persons, called participants, that have accounts with the depositary or persons that may hold interests through participants. Upon the issuance of a registered global security, the depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the participants' accounts with the respective principal or face amounts of the securities beneficially owned by the participants. Any dealers, underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of the securities will designate the accounts to be credited. Ownership of beneficial interests in a registered global security will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depositary, with respect to interests of participants, and on the records of participants, with respect to interests of persons holding through participants. The laws of some states may require that some purchasers of securities take physical delivery of these securities in definitive form. These laws may impair your ability to own, transfer or pledge beneficial interests in registered global securities.

So long as the depositary, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a registered global security, that depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the securities represented by the registered global security for all purposes under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. Except as described below, owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security will not be entitled to have the securities represented by the registered global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of the securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the securities under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a registered global security must rely on the procedures of the depositary for that registered global security and, if that person is not a participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement. We understand that under existing industry practices, if we request any action of holders or if an owner of a beneficial interest in a registered global security

29

desires to give or take any action that a holder is entitled to give or take under the applicable indenture, warrant agreement or unit agreement, the depositary for the registered global security would authorize the participants holding the relevant beneficial interests to give or take that action, and the participants would authorize beneficial owners owning through them to give or take that action or would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners holding through them.

Principal, premium, if any, and interest payments on debt securities, and any payments to holders with respect to warrants or units, represented by a registered global security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee will be made to the depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the registered global security. None of Genius, its affiliates, the trustees, the warrant agents, the unit agents or any other agent of Genius, agent of the trustees or agent of the warrant agents or unit agents will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the registered global security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to those beneficial ownership interests.

We expect that the depositary for any of the securities represented by a registered global security, upon receipt of any payment of principal, premium, interest or other distribution of underlying securities or other property to holders on that registered global security, will immediately credit participants' accounts in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in that registered global security as shown on the records of the depositary. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in a registered global security held through participants will be governed by standing customer instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of those participants.

If the depositary for any of these securities represented by a registered global security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by us within 90 days, we will issue securities in definitive form in exchange for the registered global security that had been held by the depositary. Any securities issued in definitive form in exchange for a registered global security will be registered in the name or names that the depositary gives to the relevant trustee, warrant agent, unit agent or other relevant agent of ours or theirs. It is expected that the depositary's instructions will be based upon directions received by the depositary from participants with respect to ownership of beneficial interests in the registered global security that had been held by the depositary.

30

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities in one or more of the following ways (or in any combination) from time to time:

The prospectus supplement will state the terms of the offering of the securities, including:

Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

If underwriters are used in the sale, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including:

Unless otherwise stated in a prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase any securities will be conditioned on customary closing conditions and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of such series of securities, if any are purchased.

The securities may be sold through agents from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities and any commissions paid to them. Generally, any agent will be acting on commercially reasonable efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

Sales to or through one or more underwriters or agents in at-the-market offerings will be made pursuant to the terms of a distribution agreement with the underwriters or agents. Such underwriters or agents may act on an agency basis or on a principal basis. During the term of any such agreement, shares may be sold on a daily basis on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the ordinary shares are traded, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise as agreed with the underwriters or agents. The distribution agreement will provide that

31

any ordinary share sold will be sold at negotiated prices or at prices related to the then prevailing market prices for our ordinary shares. Therefore, exact figures regarding proceeds that will be raised or commissions to be paid cannot be determined at this time and will be described in a prospectus supplement. Pursuant to the terms of the distribution agreement, we may also agree to sell, and the relevant underwriters or agents may agree to solicit offers to purchase, blocks of our ordinary shares or other securities. The terms of each such distribution agreement will be described in a prospectus supplement.

We may authorize underwriters, dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions paid for solicitation of these contracts.

Underwriters and agents may be entitled under agreements entered into with us to indemnification by us against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters or agents may be required to make.

The prospectus supplement may also set forth whether or not underwriters may over-allot or effect transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market, including, for example, by entering stabilizing bids, effecting syndicate covering transactions or imposing penalty bids.

Underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us and our affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

Each series of securities will be a new issue of securities and will have no established trading market, other than our ordinary shares, which are listed on the NYSE. Any underwriters to whom securities are sold for public offering and sale may make a market in the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. The securities, other than our ordinary shares, may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange.

32

ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

In Guernsey, foreign judgments can be recognized by the Royal Court of Guernsey (the "Guernsey Court") either under the Foreign Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) (Guernsey) Law, 1957, as amended (the "1957 Law"), which provides a statutory framework for the enforcement of judgments made in a reciprocating country and of a kind to which the 1957 Law applies, or under the principles of common law. Save for very exceptional and limited circumstances, if the 1957 Law does not apply then the common law prevails.

For jurisdictions not included in the 1957 Law, including the US, a judgment obtained in a court in the US against Genius (or its directors or officers) cannot be registered or enforced in Guernsey, pursuant to the 1957 Law, but may be enforceable by separate action on the judgment in accordance with Guernsey common law rules.

To enforce the judgment of a court of the US in Guernsey, the claimant would be required to bring fresh proceedings before the Guernsey Court, suing on the foreign judgment itself and applying for summary judgment if the case is placed on the pleadings list (essentially, where the case is defended). In such an action, the Guernsey Court is unlikely to re-examine the merits of the original case decided by a US court.

According to current practice, the Guernsey Court will (subject to the following matters) enforce the judgment of a court in the United States in in personam proceedings provided that the following conditions inter alia are satisfied:

The Guernsey Court will not, however, enforce that judgment if the judgment debtor satisfies the Guernsey Court that:

34

If the Guernsey Court gives judgment for the sum payable under a judgment of a United States court, the Guernsey judgment would be enforceable by the methods generally available for the enforcement of Guernsey judgments. These give the Guernsey Court discretion whether to allow enforcement by any particular method. In addition, it may not be possible to obtain a Guernsey judgment or to enforce any Guernsey judgment: if the judgment debtor is subject to any insolvent administration or similar proceedings; if there is delay; if an appeal is pending or anticipated against the Guernsey judgment in Guernsey or against the foreign judgment in the courts of the United States; or if the judgment debtor has any set-off or counterclaim against the judgment creditor. Additionally any security interest may affect the circumstances where the Guernsey Court provides judicial assistance to persons empowered under foreign bankruptcy law to act on behalf of an insolvent company and/or in relation to the enforcement of a judgment debt.

Jurisdiction

A foreign court is considered to have jurisdiction where one of four criteria is met, being any of the following:

Sum of Money

It is a generally accepted principle of common law in Guernsey that for the Guernsey Court to recognise a foreign judgment, that judgment needs to be for a definite sum of money and must not include deductions or additions for unspecified amounts such as tax, nor can it include penalties.

Final and Conclusive

A foreign judgment which is final and conclusive, for the purposes of recognition under Guernsey common law, is one which cannot be varied by the court which pronounced it, notwithstanding that there may be a right of appeal.

Original actions in courts of Guernsey

The Guernsey Court will prima facie take jurisdiction over an action brought by a holder of Genius ordinary shares under US securities laws against Genius, and would apply US law (if applicable and appropriate) to determine the liability of Genius. However, the Guernsey Court may decline to exercise jurisdiction over the claim. A key factor as to whether the Guernsey Court would take jurisdiction is likely to be an argument on forum conveniens. Factors such as the extent of the disputed issues of foreign law, the nature of the dispute, the residence and place of business of Genius, and the location of key witnesses is likely to influence the Guernsey Court's decision in this area.
