/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

TORONTO, Sept. 18, 2020 /CNW/ - Score Media and Gaming Inc. (TSX: SCR) ("theScore" or "the Company"), has announced that the underwriters of its previously announced bought deal offering via short-form prospectus (the "Offering") partially exercised their over-allotment option, resulting in the issue of an additional 960,600 Class A Subordinate Voting Shares ("Class A Shares") of the Company at a price of $0.65 per Class A Share. The exercise of the over-allotment option brings the total gross proceeds of the Offering to $25,649,390 through the issue of an aggregate of 39,460,600 Class A Shares (the "Offered Shares"). Canaccord Genuity Corp. and Eight Capital acted as lead underwriters for the Offering on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters which also included Cormark Securities Inc., INFOR Financial Inc. and Scotia Capital Inc.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to fund working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the continued growth and expansion of theScore Bet's operations in the United States and Canada by supporting the multi-jurisdiction deployment and operation of theScore Bet and user acquisition and retention in jurisdictions where the Company is, or will be, operating.

Accordingly, the Offered Shares may not be offered or sold within the United States, its territories or possessions, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia (collectively, the "United States") except in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any Offered Shares within the United States.
