INDIGENOUS GAMING PARTNERS AND PURE CASINO ENTERTAINMENT ACQUIRE GAMEHOST INC.

EDMONTON, AB, June 24, 2026 /CNW/ – Indigenous Gaming Partners Inc. (“IGP“) and 2825587 Alberta Ltd. (formerly Gamehost Inc.) are pleased to announce that the acquisition of Gamehost Inc. (TSX: GH) (“Gamehost“) by IGP, through Pure Casino Entertainment Limited Partnership (“Pure“), has closed.

The transaction was completed through a definitive arrangement agreement, announced on March 30, 2026, pursuant to which a subsidiary of Pure acquired all of the outstanding common shares of Gamehost (the “Gamehost Shares“) for $13.65 in cash per share (the “Consideration“). In a separate transaction, VICI Properties Inc. (“VICI“) acquired, immediately following the acquisition of Gamehost, certain Gamehost real properties and amended its triple net master lease agreement with Pure to cover those properties (the “Real Estate Transaction” and, together with the acquisition of Gamehost, the “Transactions“). Proceeds from the VICI real estate purchase amounted to C$200.6M.

The Transactions mark a significant milestone for IGP, a partnership between five Nova Scotia First Nations and Sonco Gaming Inc., and represents a rare instance of a First Nations-led group taking a publicly traded company private in Canada.

The Transactions included Gamehost’s Alberta portfolio: Great Northern Casino in Grande Prairie, Rivers Casino and Entertainment Centre in Fort McMurray, Deerfoot Inn & Casino in Calgary, the Service Plus Inns & Suites, and Encore Suites by Service Plus hotel properties in Grande Prairie. Combined with IGP’s existing four casinos, the acquisition adds three casinos and three hotels, bringing the total to seven casinos and three hotels following closing. This expanded footprint further entrenches Pure’s position as the largest casino operator in Alberta.

Gamehost shareholders who hold physical share certificates or DRS Statements must submit a letter of transmittal to the depositary, Computershare Investor Services Inc., to receive the Consideration. Additional information regarding the letter of transmittal is available in Gamehost’s management information circular, dated May 1, 2026.

The Gamehost Shares are expected to be delisted by the Toronto Stock Exchange no later than the close of market June 26, 2026.
