**A NEW SPORTS PROPERTY IN A HIGH-GROWTH REGION**

Zimbabwe combines a passionate cricket following, local and international cricket talent, and globally recognized tourism destinations, which the Company believes position the country as a compelling platform for a scalable sports entertainment and sports-tourism asset. If successfully launched, ZT20 is intended to bring professional T20 cricket to several prominent Zimbabwean locations while promoting the country on the global sports and tourism map.

ZT20 is intended to build long-term franchise and commercial value through the following pillars:

● centralized media rights;

● sponsorship sales;

● franchise and commercial partnership opportunities;

● digital and streaming distribution;

● merchandise and licensing programs;

● grassroots cricket development;

● international and local player acquisition; and

● sports-tourism activation around iconic venues.

**PLAYER PARTICIPATION**

No player has committed to participate in ZT20 unless and until definitive player agreements or applicable league participation arrangements are entered into. Any references to specific players or player pools are for contextual purposes only and should not be interpreted as a commitment, endorsement, or agreement to participate.

Zimbabwe cricket has experienced global momentum, with Zimbabwean national players participating in leading franchise leagues and international tournaments. Zimbabwe's notable international performances have further highlighted the country's ability to compete on the global cricket stage.

Subject to negotiation, availability, eligibility, scheduling, applicable approvals, and definitive arrangements, the league may seek to include leading Zimbabwean players and international players from established T20 markets, including India, the West Indies, South Africa, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, England, and other cricket markets. There can be no assurance that any particular player or category of player will participate in ZT20.

**LEADERSHIP COMMENTARY**

Givemore Makoni, Managing Director, Zimbabwe Cricket:

"This proposed league has the potential to provide a valuable platform for Zimbabwean players to compete with top international talent and create new opportunities for cricket development, commercial growth, and fan engagement across the country."

Anil Mohan, Founder, The IPG Group:

"Zimbabwe has many of the ingredients required to become a major T20 cricket destination - passionate fans, strong local talent, iconic venues, and global tourism appeal. With Victoria Falls currently planned as the launch venue, this proposed league is intended to promote cricket while also supporting Zimbabwe's profile on the global sports and tourism map."

Bradley Nattrass, Chief Executive Officer, Flash Sports & Media, Inc.:

"Live sports properties and premium media rights continue to attract global interest. If successfully launched, ZT20 is expected to combine elite competition, iconic venues, digital distribution, sponsorship opportunities, franchise ownership, and international fan engagement, while extending Flash's franchise-league strategy into a high-potential African market."

**FRANCHISE AND COMMERCIAL PARTNER OPPORTUNITIES**

The league expects to evaluate a select number of founding franchise and commercial partnership opportunities. Any franchise, sponsorship, licensing, hospitality, media, or other commercial arrangement would be subject to definitive agreements, applicable legal requirements, required approvals, and market conditions. No franchise, securities, or other investment opportunity is being offered or sold by this press release. Potential commercial arrangements may involve sponsorship, licensing, hospitality, media, merchandise, and other league-related commercial opportunities, but there can be no assurance that any such opportunities will be completed or generate revenue.

**STRATEGIC CONTEXT FOR FLASH**

Through its subsidiary Innovative Production Group FZ, LLC, the Company participates in professional cricket as a sports, media, and experiential platform, with exposure to media, sponsorship, and on-ground activations through its contractual arrangements. The planned launch of ZT20 is intended to extend the Company's franchise-league footprint into Africa, complementing its existing involvement in the Lanka Premier League and the previously announced Malaysia T20 League.

The Company's economic participation will depend on the specific terms of its contractual arrangements and on overall tournament outcomes, and may differ materially from any industry-level references included in this release. ZT20 remains an early-stage initiative and has not yet commenced operations. The Company cannot provide assurance that ZT20 will launch on the anticipated timeline, that any franchise, sponsorship, media, player, venue, or other commercial arrangements will be completed, or that the Company will generate material revenue from ZT20.

**INDUSTRY CONTEXT (THIRD-PARTY DATA)**

For general context only, publicly available third-party reports have described T20 cricket as a high-engagement global format with substantial international fan interest across South Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, the United Kingdom, and other markets. Reported media rights values for mature, established leagues such as the Indian Premier League are not comparable to ZT20 and should not be interpreted as indicative of the Company's expected results, revenues, valuation, or economic opportunity.

These figures and references relate to the broader industry or to other leagues and are not a projection of the Company's financial results, revenues, valuation, or economic impact from ZT20, and should not be relied on as such. The Company has not independently verified third-party market, industry, or economic data referenced in this press release and makes no representation as to its accuracy or completeness.

**DISCLAIMER**

References to the Zimbabwe T20 League, its anticipated format, venues, franchises, prospective franchise ownership groups, players, partners, sponsors, market size, or economic impact are based on the Company's current plans, third-party information, or industry estimates, and are subject to change. The development and launch of ZT20 are subject to a range of conditions, including definitive agreements, regulatory and governing-body approvals, venue availability, player availability, financing, and market conditions.

The Company's involvement is expected to be conducted through Flash Sports & Media, Inc., Innovative Production Group FZ, LLC, and related commercial arrangements, in collaboration with Zimbabwe Cricket, subject to definitive documentation and required approvals. References to franchise ownership, player participation, venues, market size, or economic impact are based on current plans, third-party information, or industry estimates that the Company has not independently verified. The Company's actual revenues, if any, will depend on its contractual arrangements and may differ materially from industry metrics referenced herein.

Nothing in this press release constitutes an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, franchise interests, investment contracts, or other investment opportunities. Any future franchise ownership opportunities, if pursued, would be subject to definitive agreements, applicable legal requirements, and any required regulatory approvals.
