Summary

On April 23, 2020, Plaintiffs, MGT, in its capacity as a nominal defendant, defendants Robert B. Ladd, H. Robert Holmes, Michael Onghai, and Nolan Bushnell (“MGT Defendants”), and defendants Barry C. Honig, John Stetson, Michael Brauser, John O’Rourke III, and Mark Groussman (“Shareholder Defendants”) entered into the Stipulation in the above-captioned action filed derivatively on behalf of MGT, in Supreme Court of the State of New York, Westchester Country (the “Court”) against the MGT Defendants and the Shareholder Defendants. The Settlement, as documented in the Stipulation, subject to the approval of the Court, is intended by the Settling Parties to fully, finally, and forever compromise, resolve, discharge, and settle the Released Claims and to result in the dismissal of the Derivative Actions with prejudice, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Stipulation.

For full details of the matters discussed in this summary, please see the full Stipulation posted on the Investors page on MGT’s website, mgtci.com/, contact Plaintiffs’ Counsel at the addresses listed below, or inspect the full Stipulation filed with the Clerk of the Court.

What is the Lawsuit About?

The Derivative Actions are brought derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant MGT and alleges that the MGT Defendants and Shareholder Defendants breached their fiduciary duties by making and/or causing MGT to make false and misleading statements of material fact to the investing public, failing to maintain internal controls at MGT, and engaging in a pump and dump scheme.

¹ All capitalized terms used in this notice, unless otherwise defined herein, are defined as set forth in the Stipulation.

2

Why is there a Settlement?

The Court has not decided in favor of Defendants or Plaintiffs. Instead, both sides agreed to the Settlement to avoid the distraction, costs, and risks of further litigation, and because the Settlement, including the corporate governance reforms adopted by MGT as part of the Settlement and the payments by the MGT Defendants and the Shareholder Defendants to MGT, provides a substantial benefit to, and is in the best interests of, MGT and its stockholders.

Defendants deny each and every allegation of wrongdoing or liability arising out of or relating in any way to the events, conduct, statements, acts, or omissions alleged in the Derivative Action. Defendants further assert that, at all times, they acted in good faith, and in a manner they reasonably believed to be and that was in the best interests of MGT and MGT’s stockholders. Defendants assert that they have meritorious defenses to the claims in the Derivative Actions. Nonetheless, Defendants have entered into the Stipulation, without admitting or conceding any fault, liability, wrongdoing, or damage whatsoever, in order to avoid the risks inherent in any lawsuit and the burden and expense of further litigation.

The Settlement Hearing and Your Right to Object to the Settlement

On April 24, 2020, the Court entered an order preliminarily approving the Stipulation and the Settlement contemplated therein (the “Preliminary Approval Order”) and providing for the notice of the Settlement to be made to Current MGT Stockholders. The Preliminary Approval Order further provides that the Court will hold a hearing (the “Settlement Hearing”) on June 26, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. before the Honorable Linda S. Jamieson, New York Supreme Court, Westchester County, Courtroom 103, located at the 111 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd., White Plains, NY 10601 to, among other things: (i) determine whether the proposed Settlement is fair, reasonable and adequate and in the best interests of MGT and its stockholders; (ii) consider any objections to the Settlement submitted in accordance with this Notice; (iii) determine whether a judgment should be entered dismissing all claims in the Derivative Actions with prejudice, and releasing the Released Claims against the Released Persons; (iv) consider the agreed-to Fee and Expense Award to Plaintiffs’ Counsel of attorneys’ fees and the reimbursement of expenses; (v) consider the Service Awards to Plaintiffs, which shall be funded from the Fee and Expense Award; and (vi) consider any other matters that may properly be brought before the Court in connection with the Settlement.

Any Current MGT Stockholder who wishes to object to the fairness, reasonableness, or adequacy of the Settlement as set forth in the Stipulation, or to the proposed Fee and Expense Award to Plaintiffs’ Counsel, may file a written objection with the Court.

If an objector hires an attorney to represent him, her or it for the purposes of making such objection, the attorney must serve a notice of appearance on the counsel listed above and file such notice with the Court no later than 14 calendar days before the Settlement Hearing. Any Current MGT Stockholder who does not timely file and serve a written objection complying with the above terms shall be deemed to have waived, and shall be foreclosed from raising, any objection to the Settlement, and any untimely objection shall be barred.

Any objector who files and serves a timely, written objection in accordance with the instructions above, may appear at the Settlement Hearing either in person or through counsel retained at the objector’s expense. Objectors need not attend the Settlement Hearing, however, in order to have their objections considered by the Court.

If you are a Current MGT Stockholder and do not take steps to appear in this action and object to the proposed Settlement, you will be bound by the Judgment of the Court and will forever be barred from raising an objection to such settlement in the Derivative Actions and from pursuing any of the Released Claims.
