FaZe, its directors and certain executive officers are participants in the solicitation of proxies from stockholders in connection with the proposed Merger. On December 11, 2023, GameSquare filed with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form F-4 (the “F-4”), which includes a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus relating to the proposed Merger. GameSquare and certain of its directors and executive officers may also be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the stockholders of FaZe in connection with the Merger. In connection with the proposed Merger, upon the effectiveness of the F-4, FaZe intends to mail the definitive proxy statement/prospectus to its stockholders, to be used at the meeting of FaZe’s stockholders to approve the proposed Merger and related matters. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS OF FAZE ARE URGED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS, ANY AMENDMENTS THERETO AND OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT FAZE, GAMESQUARE AND THE MERGER. When available, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant materials for the Merger will be mailed to stockholders of FaZe as of the record date established for voting on the proposed Merger. Investors and security holders will also be able to obtain copies of the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other documents containing important information about each of the companies once such documents are filed with the SEC, without charge, at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov.

Adjournment of the Special Meeting was not necessary or appropriate because there were sufficient shares voted at the Special Meeting to approve Proposal 1 with respect to the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

~~Forward-Looking Statements~~1

~~This~~SIGNATURES Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements” (collectively, “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements and are based on expectations, estimates and projections as at the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Any statement that involves discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions, future events or performance (often but not always using phrases such as “expects”, or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, “expects”, “plans”, “projects”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “forecasts”, “estimates”, “believes” or “intends” or variations of such words and phrases or stating that certain actions, events or results “may” or “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken to occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and accordingly are forward-looking statements. In this Current Report on Form 8-K, forward-looking statements relate, among other things, to: the anticipated timing for closing the Merger, the combined company’s future performance and revenue; continued growth and profitability of the combined company; and the combined company’s ability to execute its business plans and achieve certain cost synergies. These forward-looking statements are provided only to provide information currently available to FaZe and GameSquare and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, assurance or definitive statement of fact or probability. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions which include, but are not limited to: the satisfaction of conditions precedent (including shareholder approvals) to the consummation of the proposed Merger, the combined company being able to complete and successfully integrate acquisitions, the combined company being able to grow its business, execute its business plan or achieve projected cost synergies, the combined company being able to recognize and capitalize on opportunities and the combined company continuing to retain and attract qualified personnel to supports its development requirements. These assumptions, while considered reasonable, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results and future events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to: FaZe’s and GameSquare’s ability to complete the contemplated Merger and the Parent Financing (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the combined company’s ability to achieve its objectives, the combined company’s successful execution of its growth strategy, the ability of the combined company to obtain future financings or complete offerings on acceptable terms, the consummation of the planned $10 million private placement of public equity by GameSquare in connection with the contemplated transaction, failure to leverage the combined company’s portfolio across entertainment and media platforms, dependence on the combined company’s key personnel and general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties, including impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and any variants. These risk factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect FaZe and GameSquare, which factors are discussed in FaZe’s recent publicly filed quarterly report on Form 10-Q and annual report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on August 14, 2023 and April 4, 2023 respectively, and in GameSquare’s most recent publicly filed annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on December 29, 2022 and its 20-F/A filed with the SEC on December 20, 2023. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements and0 information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Neither FaZe nor GameSquare assumes any obligation to update the forward-looking statements of beliefs, opinions, projections, or other factors, should they change, except as required by law.
