5 terms

beneficial owner financial

"the beneficial owner of the securities reported herein"

A beneficial owner is the person who ultimately owns or controls a financial asset or property, even if their name isn't directly on official documents. Think of it like someone who secretly holds the keys to a safe deposit box—others may appear to have access, but the true owner is the one who benefits from what's inside. Identifying beneficial owners helps ensure transparency and prevent illegal activities like money laundering or fraud.

9.99% Blocker financial

"subject to the 9.99% Blocker and the percentage set forth"

dispositive power financial

"Sole Dispositive Power 24,370,924.00"

Dispositive power is the authority to decide the final outcome of an asset, legal claim, contract, or corporate action — in effect the power to dispose of or resolve something. For investors it matters because whoever holds that authority can determine who gets paid, who controls an asset or vote, and how risks and returns are allocated; think of it like holding the key that lets you lock in the winner or loser in a deal.

investment adviser financial

"the investment adviser to certain funds and accounts"

An investment adviser is a person or firm that professionally manages money and gives recommendations about buying, selling, or holding investments. Like a financial coach or guide, they have a legal duty to act in a client's best financial interest, so their advice, fees and potential conflicts can directly affect returns and risk — making their role important for investors who want informed, accountable help with portfolios.

Schedule 13G regulatory

"for the purposes of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act"

A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.

What is the 9.99% Blocker mentioned in Sharplink (SBET) ownership?

The 9.99% Blocker restricts Highbridge from exercising warrants if doing so would make it own over 9.99% of Sharplink’s outstanding Common Stock. As a result, Highbridge cannot currently exercise all its warrants, even though they are counted in beneficial ownership calculations.

Comment for Type of Reporting Person: Includes 10,013,351 shares of Common Stock (as defined in Item 2(a)) issuable upon exercise of the Reported Warrants (as defined in Item 4(a)). As more fully described in Item 4, the Reported Warrants are subject to the 9.99% Blocker (as defined in Item 4(a)) and the percentage set forth on row (11) gives effect to the 9.99% Blocker. However, rows (5), (7) and (9) show the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon the full exercise of the Reported Warrants and does not give effect to the 9.99% Blocker. Therefore, the actual number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Reporting Person, after giving effect to the 9.99% Blocker, is less than the number of securities reported on rows (5), (7) and (9).
