filed a separate lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida (“MDF”) against John J. Brier,
Jr. (“Brier”), Bin Tu (“Tu”), and Global Gaming Data, LLC (“GGD”) (collectively, “Defendants”),
which was subsequently amended on November 21, 2023, for damages and injunctive relief arising out of Defendants’ various violations
of the Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act (“DTSA”), the Florida Uniform Trade Secrets Act (“FUTSA”) and the Florida
Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (“FDUTPA”), and for breaches of contract and breaches of various fiduciary duties,
including the duty of loyalty, in a case styled Lottery.com, Inc. f/k/a AutoLotto, Inc. and TinBu, LLC v. John J. Brier, Jr.,
Bin Tu, & Global Gaming Data, LLC (Case No.: 8:23-cv-2594-KKM-TGW).

In
response, Defendants asserted counterclaims against Plaintiffs, essentially filing exactly the same claims they previously alleged in
the Hillsborough County Circuit Court Action that had been compelled to arbitration, and they also joined JBBT to the lawsuit. The Company
sought dismissal of the counterclaims, as well as a Temporary Restraining Order. The request for temporary injunctive relief was denied
by the MDF in February 2024, and on June 11, 2024, the MDF also denied Plaintiffs’ motion to dismiss, allowing the litigation to
move forward. On June 25, 2024, Plaintiffs filed their answer and affirmative defenses to Defendants’ counterclaims. On December
5, 2024, the parties participated in a court-ordered mediation; however, no resolution was reached.

On
February 25, 2025, Plaintiffs’ claims were dismissed without prejudice for failure to prosecute, and Defendants immediately moved
for default judgment on their counterclaims. On March 14, 2025, the Court entered an order denying without prejudice Defendants’
Motion for various deficiencies in the filing. On March 18, 2025, Defendants filed an Amended Motion for Default Judgment on their Counterclaims,
followed by additional support for their purported damages on April 25, 2025. The Company engaged new counsel, who made an appearance
on June 5, 2025, and thereafter sought and obtained additional time to respond to Defendants
