Item 4 is hereby amended by addition of the following:

Support Agreement

On May 15, 2023, in connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) a Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) was entered into by and among each of the Reporting Persons, Pinhas Zahavi and Oded Gottfried (collectively, the “Shareholders”) and Aristocrat Leisure Limited (“Parent”) relating to all of the Ordinary Shares owned by the Reporting Persons as set out on the cover pages hereto and all of the Ordinary Shares owned by the other Shareholders, which represent in the aggregate approximately 60.7% of the 33,561,064 Ordinary Shares deemed to be  issued and outstanding as of May 12, 2023. The Business Combination Agreement is included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report filed on Form 6-K with the SEC on May 15, 2023.

Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Shareholders have irrevocably agreed, among other things, to (a) certain restrictions on the transfer of their Ordinary Shares, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the SPA, (b) vote their Ordinary Shares at any meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer in favor of, and otherwise support, the transactions set forth in that certain Business Combination Agreement entered into on May 15, 2023 (the “Business Combination Agreement”) among the Issuer, Parent and Anaxi Investments Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Transactions”), including (i) the approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement, the memorandum and articles of association of the Issuer following the Continuation (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), the statutory plan of merger (including the memorandum and articles of association enclosed therewith) and the Transactions, (ii) the approval of waiving any shareholder notice requirements under the Issuer’s organizational documents or any law applicable to calling, holding and convening the meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer to be held in the Cayman Islands following the Continuation (or any adjournment, reconvening or postponement thereof) and (iii) effective upon the Continuation, the change of the Issuer’s name to “Neo Group Ltd.”, (c) unconditionally and irrevocably grant to, and appoint, Parent and up to two of Parent’s designated representatives as each Shareholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution) for and in the name, place and stead of such Shareholder to vote or cause to be voted (including by proxy or written consent, if applicable) such Shareholder’s Ordinary Shares in accordance and consistent with the Support Agreement, with respect to the matters specified above, and (d) avoid taking certain actions adverse to the Transactions. The Support Agreement will terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) the consummation of the Transactions, (b) the termination of the Business Combination Agreement pursuant to and in compliance with the terms therein and (c) the entry, without the prior written consent of such Shareholder, into any amendment or modification of the Business Combination Agreement, or any written waiver of the Issuer’s rights under the Business Combination Agreement made in connection with a request from Parent, in each case, which results in a decrease in the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement).

The foregoing description of the Support Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such agreement, which is attached as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.
