OPAP S.A. (the 'Company', 'Issuer'), pursuant to the provisions of L.3556/2007 and following disclosure received by Mr. Georgios Melissanidis on 27.09.2019 as a result of change of the quality of control of Emma Delta Management Ltd. from joint to sole control., announces the following:

Limited, 33.3% of the shares and voting rights in Emma Delta Management Ltd., whereas the rest 66.7% is indirectly held by VALEA FOUNDATION, through the entity SAZKA Group a.s. Following the amendment of the Emma Delta Shareholders' Agreement (i.e. the shareholders' agreement regarding certain rights and obligations of the shareholders of Emma Delta Management Ltd., Emma Delta Variable Capital Investment Company Ltd. and Emma Delta Hellenic Holdings Ltd) on 27 June 2019, in conjunction with the departure of Mr. Jiri Smejc, as of 27 June 2019 Emma Delta Management Ltd. is no longer under the ultimate joint control of VALEA FOUNDATION and Mr. Georgios Melissanidis. It is the common view of SAZKA Group a.s. (and VALEA FOUNDATION, as the entity ultimately controlling SAZKA Group a.s.) and Georgiella Holdings Co. Limited (and Mr. Georgios Melissanidis, as the person ultimately controlling Georgiella Holdings Co. Limited), upon a legal and business review of the current status of the Emma Delta Shareholders' Agreement, that as of the date of entry into force of the Third Amendment to the Emma Delta Shareholders' Agreement (that is 27 June 2019), Emma Delta Management Ltd. is under the sole control of SAZKA Group a.s..

Thus, in accordance with the terms of the Emma Delta Shareholders' Agreement, as amended and restated on 27 June 2019, VALEA FOUNDATION exercises, through SAZKA Group a.s., sole control over Emma Delta Management Ltd. within the meaning of L. 3556/2007.
