Based on 32,307,285 shares of common stock of the Issuer that were outstanding following the merger of fuboTV Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer, and fuboTV Inc., as disclosed by the Issuer in the Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2020. The amounts reported in this Schedule 13G represent 2,574,587 shares of the Issuer’s Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) owned by the Reporting Persons, which are entitled to 0.8 votes per share (2,059,669 votes) and convertible into 5,149,174 shares of common stock in connection with a bona fide transfer to a third party. The Reporting Persons’ 2,574,587 shares of Preferred Stock represent 5.31% of the total number of all outstanding shares of the Issuer’s common stock (assuming the conversion of all 32,324,362 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding) and less than 5% of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of the Issuer’s common stock and Preferred Stock on a combined basis as of April 7, 2020. Assuming the Reporting Persons converted all of their shares of Preferred Stock reported in this Schedule 13G into common stock in connection with a bona fide transfer to a third party and no other holders of shares of Preferred Stock elected to convert, the 5,149,174 shares of the Issuer’s common stock reported as being beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons in this Schedule 13G would represent approximately 13.75% of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer. The number of shares of Preferred Stock outstanding was provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer after giving effect to the merger.
