Offer to FanDuel shareholders

1.
Terms not otherwise defined in this offer letter shall have the meanings given to them
in the articles of association of FanDuel (the Articles).
2.
As you may be aware, Paddy Power Betfair plc (PPB) has, through its subsidiary
TSE Holdings Ltd (TSE Holdings), reached an agreement with FanDuel pursuant to which
the United States operations of PPB will be combined with FanDuel (the Business
Combination). The Company is a newly created subsidiary of TSE Holdings which will own
such combined operations.
3.
In order to consummate the business combination described above, the Company
hereby makes an offer to all shareholders of FanDuel as at the date hereof (FanDuel
Stockholders) to acquire all of the issued share capital of FanDuel at the date hereof, on the
following terms and conditions (the Offer):
(a)
in consideration for the transfer by the FanDuel Stockholders of all of the issued share
capital of FanDuel to the Company, the total consideration payable to all FanDuel
Stockholders shall be an aggregate of 4,058,004 shares of common stock in the
capital of the Company (Shares) (which number of shares will represent
approximately 40 per cent. of the issued common stock of the Company immediately
following the closing of the Business Combination), as such number of Shares may
be adjusted pursuant to paragraphs 3(b) and 3(c) below (such aggregate amount, as
adjusted, the FanDuel Share Pool). The Business Combination implies a cash
equivalent value of the FanDuel Share Pool, prior to any adjustment, of
US$465,493,638.84 (or US$114.71 per Share, such per share amount being referred
to herein as the Share Price);
(b)
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Offer or otherwise in connection with
the Business Combination, in no event shall the Company be required to issue any
Shares to any US Person (within the meaning of Regulation S, promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission the under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended) that the Company has not determined prior to Completion, in its sole
discretion, is an Accredited Investor (as such term is used in Regulation D, Rule
501(a), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission the under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended). To the extent any such FanDuel Stockholder
would otherwise have been entitled to be issued Shares as consideration hereunder or
otherwise in connection with the Business Combination but the Company has not
determined that such FanDuel Stockholder is an Accredited Investor, the Company
shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to pay such amounts in cash, rather than issuing
Shares, with the amount of cash payable equal to the value of the Shares (having a
value per Share equal to the Share Price) that would have otherwise been issuable had
sucph FanDuel Stockholder been determined to be an Accredited Investor. In such


212
134996.00104/109933700v.1
event, the number of Shares comprised in the FanDuel Share Pool shall be reduced
accordingly;
(c)
certain investors who are unable or unwilling to directly or indirectly own equity
securities in the Company for regulatory and other reasons related to the Company’s
present and future participation in the sports betting business (including NBA
Ventures I, LLC) have separately agreed to sell all of their entitlement
to Shares under the Offer to TSE Holdings (the current parent company of PandaCo),
with the amount of cash payable in each such instance equal to the value of the shares
otherwise issuable (having a per share value equal to the Share Price).
(d)
if the transaction expenses of FanDuel payable by the Company at Completion in
connection with the transaction envisaged by this Offer are:
(i)
lower than US$12,000,000, the FanDuel Share Pool shall be increased by
such number of Shares as equals (a) the difference between the value of such
transaction expenses and US$12,000,000 divided by (b) the Share Price, with
such amount being rounded down to the nearest whole number; or
(ii) higher than US12,000,000, the FanDuel Share Pool shall be reduced by such
number of Shares as equals (a) the difference between the value of such
transaction expenses and US$12,000,000 divided by (b) the Share Price, with
such amount being rounded down to the nearest whole number;
(e)
the total consideration payable to the FanDuel Stockholders shall be allocated as
between the FanDuel Stockholders pursuant to the terms of the Articles (including
without limitation Articles 83 and 84.2) and where any FanDuel Stockholder would
be entitled to a fraction of a Share, such fractional entitlement shall be settled by the
Company in cash (with the amount of the cash payment being calculated by reference
to the Share Price);

each FanDuel Stockholder who accepts this Offer (whether pursuant to the FanDuel
Stockholder’s acceptance of the Offer or pursuant to the Drag Along Right) and
receives Shares by way of consideration under the Offer:
(i) grants to Fastball Holdings LLC (FD Holdings) a call option in the terms
contained in Appendix B (FD Holdings Call Option).
(ii) agrees to be bound by the following documents (Constitutional Documents):
(A)
in the event the FD Holdings Call Option is exercised, the limited
liability company agreement of Fastball Holdings LLC;
(B)
in the event the FD Holdings Call Option is not exercised, the
stockholders agreement of the Company (with such modifications as
may be necessary to reflect that Fastball Holdings LLC will not be a
stockholder of the Company, but rather the FanDuel Stockholders
will own the FanDuel Share Pool directly);
(g)
each FanDuel Stockholder who accepts this Offer (whether pursuant to the FanDuel
Stockholder’s acceptance of the Offer or pursuant to the Drag Along Right):
(i) warrants to the Company at Completion that:

a FanDuel Stockholder may be deemed an Accredited Investor for purposes of the Offer, and
the Company retains the right to make such determination as it deems proper regardless of
whether or not such questionnaire is complete and/or the responses provided therein.

Terms not otherwise defined in this Agremeent shall have the meanings given to them in the

entity) and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein, all Shares
issued to such FanDuel Stockholder pursuant to the Offer (the “Covered Shares”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties to this Call Option hereby agree as follows:

Section 1.
Call Option; Consideration. At any time during the period beginning
on the date of the consummation of the Offer and ending on the second anniversary thereof,
FD Holdings shall have the irrevocable and unconditional option to require the FanDuel
Stockholder to exchange each of the Covered Shares for one (1) Unit (the “Call Option”).

Section 2.
Call Option Closing. In the event the Call Option is exercised by FD
Holdings serving a written notice on PandaCo, the FanDuel Stockholder shall, immediately
following exercise of the Call Option, be deemed to have surrendered to FD Holdings the
Covered Shares in exchange for the Units, on the terms set forth herein (the “Call Closing
Date”).

Section 3.
Negative Pledge. The FanDuel Stockholder agrees that, until the
earlier of (a) the Call Closing Date and (b) the expiry of the Call Option without it being
exercised, it will not sell, exchange, assign, pledge, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose
of the Covered Shares or any interest therein or portion thereof, without the prior written
approval of FD Holdings, which approval FD Holdings may withhold in its sole discretion.

Section 4.
Further Assurances. The FanDuel Stockholder shall, following the
exercise of the Call Option, execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and
transfer and take such additional action as FD Holdings may at any time reasonably request to
effect, consummate, confirm or evidence the transfer to FD Holdings of the Covered Shares,
and the FanDuel Stockholder shall execute such documents as may be reasonably necessary to

712
134996.00104/109933700v.1
instruments as may be necessary to consummate the conveyance of the Shares to FD Holdings
in exchange for the issuance of the Units.

Section 5.
Headings; Grammatical Usage. The descriptive headings of the
several Sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a
part of this Agreement. The use of the word “including” shall mean “including, without
limitation.”

Section 6.
Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests
or obligations under the Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law
or otherwise by either party without the prior written consent of the other party. Any
attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void ab initio.

Section 7.
Complete Agreement.
This Agreement contains the entire
understanding of the parties with respect to the matters contemplated hereby and supersedes
all prior arrangements or understandings with respect thereto.

Section 8.
Modifications, Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be
amended, modified or supplemented only by the written agreement of each of the parties
hereto.

Section 9.
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any
choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any
other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than
the State of Delaware.

Section 10.
Severability. This Agreement shall be deemed severable. Whenever
possible, each provision and term of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as
to be effective and valid under applicable laws, but if any provision or term of this Agreement
shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under such applicable law, then such provision or
term shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating or affecting in any manner whatsoever the remainder of such provision or term or
the remaining provisions or terms of this Agreement; provided that if a court of competent
jurisdiction shall find that any provision or term contained herein is not valid or enforceable,
such court shall have the power to reduce the scope of any such provision or term to the
extent necessary to make such provision or term valid and enforceable.

Section 11.
Remedies. FD Holdings shall be entitled to enforce its rights under
this Agreement specifically to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision or
term of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in its favor. The parties hereto
agree and acknowledge that the Covered Shares are unique property, and that money damages
would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that
FD Holdings shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting
a bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this
Agreement. FD Holdings shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to
have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in
writing, signed by FD Holdings, and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by FD
Holdings of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a
bar to any right or remedy which FD Holdings would otherwise have on any future occasion.
The single or partial exercise of any right, power, remedy or privilege shall not preclude FD
Holdings from then or thereafter exercising any other or additional rights, powers, remedies or
privileges, all of the same being cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers, remedies
or privileges provided by law or in equity or any other agreement.
