by and between the Company, Kustom Entertainment, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Kustom
Entertainment” and, together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), and Mosh Man, LLC, a New Jersey limited
liability company (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Borrowers issued to the Purchaser a Senior Secured Promissory
Note (the “Note”) with a principal amount of $1,425,000. In connection with the Agreement, the Borrowers entered
into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) by and between the Borrowers, as grantor, and the Purchaser,
as grantee. The gross proceeds to the Company are $1,000,000, before paying customary fees and expenses.
Pursuant
to the Note, the Borrowers shall repay the Note, in full, on the earlier of (i) November 1, 2024, and (ii) the consummation of
the merger between Kustom Entertainment and CL Merger Sub, Inc. (“CL Merger Sub”) pursuant to the Merger Agreement
among the Company, Kustom Entertainment, Clover Leaf Capital Corp., Yntegra Capital Investments LLC and CL Merger Sub, dated as of June
1, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”). The Borrowers shall pay in arrears in cash an amount equal to 50% of revenues from
all ticket sales generated by Kustom Entertainment, up nine thousand tickets sold, and thereafter equal to 10% of all revenues from all
ticket sales until the earlier of the date on which the Note is repaid in full or the Maturity Date. The Note bears interest at a rate
of 1.58% per month. The Borrowers have the right, but not the obligation, under the Note to prepay the Note, upon written notice to the
Purchaser, by payment in full of the entire outstanding principal balance plus interest. Upon a change of control of either Borrower

are equal to or greater than $3,000,000, the Borrowers shall prepay the Note in full.

of and relating to Country Stampede (“Country Stampede Intellectual Property”) and certain contracts in which JC Entertainment
is a party to host and operate the 2024 Country Stampede (the “Assumed Contracts”, and together with the Country Stampede
Intellectual Property, the “Purchased Assets”).
As

like relating to such refund request.

11.2
Acceleration. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Holder, by written notice to the Borrower, may declare
the principal of and interest on the Note to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration of acceleration, such principal
and interest shall become immediately due and payable, and the Holder shall be entitled to exercise all of its rights and remedies hereunder
and under its Note whether at law or in equity. Additionally, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by Borrower an additional sum
of THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($300,000.00) (the “Default Payment”), shall be due and owing without notice
to Borrower or any other person. Borrower acknowledges that Holder’s collection of any such additional sum is not a fine or penalty
but is reasonable compensation to Holder for increased costs and expenses that Holder will incur upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.
The outstanding unpaid principal and interest due and owing upon an Event of Default, combined with the Default Payment, shall be paid
directly from 25% of Borrower’s and Subsidiaries’ revenues, until all principal and interest due and owing has been received
in full from Borrower by Purchaser.
11.3
Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, in addition to all other rights and remedies
that may then be available to the Holder of the Note, each such Holder is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without
notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower) to set-off and apply any and all indebtedness at any
time owing by such Holder to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries against all amounts which may be owed
to such Holder by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement or the Note.
11.4
Lockbox Control Agreement. Subject to the following sentence, immediately following an Event
of Default and in no event later than ten (10) Business Days following any such Event of Default, Borrower shall deliver or cause to
be delivered to the Purchaser a lockbox account control agreement (the “Account Control Agreement”), in form and substance
satisfactory to Purchaser and its counsel, covering such Borrower accounts as determined by Purchaser. In the event any such depository
bank or Securities Intermediary (as defined in the Security Agreement) refuses to execute and deliver the Account Control Agreement,
the Purchaser, in its sole discretion, may require the applicable Deposit Account (as defined in the Security Agreement) (other than
Excluded Deposit Account (as defined in the Security Agreement)) and Investment Property (as defined in the Security Agreement) to be
transferred to a Controlled Depository (as defined in the Security Agreement) or Controlled Intermediary (as defined in the Security
Agreement), as applicable.
11.5
Liquidated Damages. As liquidated damages, if either (i) Borrower fails to execute and deliver
the Account Control Agreement as set forth in Section 11.4 or (ii) there is a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction
that there has been (a) an intentional or willful default or breach under the Account Control Agreement by the Borrower or (b) an act,
conduct, or omission with respect to, or in connection with, the Account Control Agreement, which constitutes fraud by the Borrower,
an additional sum of $1,000,000 shall be due and owing immediately without notice to Borrower or any other person. Borrower acknowledges
that Holder’s collection of any such additional sum is not a fine or penalty but is reasonable compensation to Holder for increased
costs and expenses that Holder will incur upon the occurrence of such default or breach.
11.6
Cumulative Remedies. The enumeration of the rights and remedies of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement is not intended
to be exhaustive and the exercise by the Purchaser of any right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies,
all of which shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or under the other Note Documents
or that may now or hereafter exist at law or in equity or by suit or otherwise. No delay or failure to take action on the part of the
Purchaser in exercising any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege
or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. No course of dealing between the Borrower, the Purchaser or their respective
agents or employees shall be effective to change, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents
or to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default.
Article
12
INDEMNIFICATION
12.1
Indemnification. In addition to all other sums due hereunder or provided for in this Agreement, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries,
jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents,
employees, Subsidiaries, partners, members, attorneys, accountants and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Party”)
to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel and costs of investigation incurred by an Indemnified Party in any action
or proceeding between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and such Indemnified Party (or Indemnified Parties) or between an Indemnified
Party (or Indemnified Parties) and any third party or otherwise) or other liabilities or losses (collectively, “Liabilities”),
in each case resulting from or arising out of any breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or agreement of the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries in this Agreement or any other Note Document, including without limitation, the failure to make payment when
due of amounts owing pursuant to this Agreement or any other Note Document, on the due date thereof (whether at the scheduled maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise) or any legal, administrative or other actions (including, without limitation, actions brought by any holders
of equity or Debt of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or derivative actions brought by any Person claiming through or in the Borrower’s
or any of its Subsidiaries’ name), proceedings or investigations (whether formal or informal), or written threats thereof, based
upon, relating to or arising out of the Note Documents, the transactions contemplated thereby, or any Indemnified Party’s role
therein or in the transactions contemplated thereby; provided, however, that the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall not
be liable under this Section 12.1 to an Indemnified Party to the extent such Liabilities resulted from the willful misconduct
or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party; provided, further, that if and to the extent that such indemnification is
unenforceable for any reason other than willful misconduct or gross negligence, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, jointly and severally,
shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such Liabilities which shall be permissible under Requirements
of Law. In connection with the obligation of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to indemnify for expenses as set forth above, each of
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries further agrees, upon presentation of invoices, to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all such expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel and costs of investigation incurred by an
Indemnified Party in connection with any Liabilities) as they are incurred by such Indemnified Party.
12.2
Procedure; Notification. Each Indemnified Party under this Article 12 will, after the receipt of notice of the commencement
of any action, investigation, claim or other proceeding against such Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought from
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries under this Article 12, notify the Borrower in writing of the commencement thereof. The omission
of any Indemnified Party to so notify the Borrower of any such action shall not relieve the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from
any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party unless such omission substantially and irrevocably impairs the Borrower’s
or any of its Subsidiaries’ ability to defend the action, claim or other proceeding. In case any such action, claim or other proceeding
shall be brought against any Indemnified Party and it shall notify the Borrower of the commencement thereof, the Borrower shall, with
Purchaser’s consent, be entitled to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified
Party in its reasonable judgment; provided, that any Indemnified Party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to participate
in such defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any action, claim or proceeding in which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
on the one hand, and an Indemnified Party, on the other hand, is, or is reasonably likely to become, a party, such Indemnified Party
shall have the right to employ separate counsel at the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s expense and to control its own defense
of such action, claim or proceeding if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict
exists between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, that would make
such separate representation advisable. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries agrees that it will not, without the prior written
consent of the Holder, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding
relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if any Indemnified Party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be made a
party thereto) unless (i) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Purchaser and each other Indemnified
Party from all liability arising or that may arise out of such claim, action or proceeding (ii) the Borrower has provided reasonable
prior notice thereof and (iii) the Purchaser has provided its prior written consent to such settlement, compromise or consent, which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The rights accorded to Indemnified Parties hereunder shall be in addition to any
rights that any Indemnified Party may have at common law, by separate agreement or otherwise.

13.3
Successors and Assigns.
(a)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. Subject
to applicable securities laws, the Purchaser may transfer the Note in whole or in part and may assign its rights under the Note Documents
at any time, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (which may not be unreasonably withheld). The Purchaser may not, without
the prior written consent of the Borrower (which may not be unreasonably withheld), assign, bifurcate, syndicate, sell, securitize or
grant a participation in all or any portion of the Obligations in a private transaction not constituting a public offering, and the Borrower
hereby agrees to cooperate in any such transaction. Such transaction shall be negotiated, executed and performed at the Purchaser’s
cost and expense; provided that, the Borrower shall be responsible for its own legal fees in connection therewith.
(b)
Holder may at any time, with the prior written consent of Borrower (which may not be unreasonably withheld), sell to one or more Persons
participating interests in the Note or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the
event of a sale by a Holder of a participating interest to a Participant, (i) such Holder’s obligations hereunder shall remain
unchanged for all purposes, (ii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Holder in connection with such Holder’s
rights and obligations hereunder and (iii) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if such Holder had not sold such participation
and shall be paid directly to such Holder. No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder except with respect
to any event described in Section 13.4. Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as
a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating
interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly
to it as a Holder under this Agreement; provided that such right of setoff shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant
to share with Holder, as provided in Section 11.3. In the event that a Holder sells a participation, the Holder, as a non fiduciary
agent on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) in the United States a register (the “Participant
Register”) on which it enters the name and addresses of all participants in the Obligations held by it and the rights of
such participants in the Obligations (including principal amount, interest thereon, and fees of the portion of such Obligations that
is subject to such participations). No Holder shall have an obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to
any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Obligation),
except as otherwise required by applicable law and to the Borrower at their reasonable request and then, solely to the extent that such
disclosure is required to establish that such participation or Obligation is in registered form under Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c)
of the Treasury Regulations. Any participation or transfer thereof may be effected only by the registration of such participation on
the Participant Register.
(c)
The Borrower may not assign any of its rights, or delegate any of its obligations, under this Agreement without the prior written consent
of the Holder, and any such purported assignment by the Borrower without the written consent of the Holder shall be void and of no effect.
Except as provided in Article 12, no Person other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns is intended
to be a beneficiary of any of the Note Documents.
13.4
Amendment and Waiver.
(a)
No failure or delay on the part of any of the parties hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of
any remedies that may be available to the parties hereto at law, in equity or otherwise.
(b)
Any amendment, waiver, supplement or modification of or to any provision of this Agreement, and any consent to any departure by any party
from the terms of any provision of this Agreement, shall be effective (i) only if it is made or given in writing and signed by the Borrower
and the Holder and (ii) only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given.
(c)
Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the
Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
13.5
Signatures; Counterparts. Facsimile transmissions of any executed original document and/or retransmission of any executed
facsimile transmission shall be deemed to be the same as the delivery of an executed original. At the request of any party hereto, the
other parties hereto shall confirm facsimile transmissions by executing duplicate original documents and delivering the same to the requesting
party or parties. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each
of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
13.6
Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the
meaning hereof.
13.7
GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND ENFORCED UNDER, THE LAWS OF THE STATE
OF NEVADA, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW OF SUCH STATE.
13.8
JURISDICTION, JURY TRIAL WAIVER, ETC.
(a)
EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT THE ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT,
THE NOTE, OR ANY AGREEMENTS OR TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE
OF SUCH COURTS FOR THE PURPOSES THEREOF AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM OF IMPROPER VENUE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT
FORUM. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION
OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION
13.2.
(b)
EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION
WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE, OR ANY OF THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE
OF SUCH RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS. EACH OF LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR SUBSIDIARIES (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF
THE PURCHASER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE PURCHASER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVERS AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE PURCHASER HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THE OTHER NOTE DOCUMENTS
TO WHICH IT IS PARTY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED HEREIN.
13.9
Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement, or the application thereof in any circumstance,
is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision
in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired, unless the provisions held invalid, illegal
or unenforceable shall substantially impair the benefits of the remaining provisions of this Agreement. The parties hereto further agree
to replace such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid, legal and enforceable provision that will
achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
13.10
Rules of Construction. Unless the context otherwise requires, “or” is not exclusive, and references to sections
or subsections refer to sections or subsections of this Agreement.
13.11
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the exhibits and schedules hereto and the other Note Documents, is intended
by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding
of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained in this Agreement, the exhibits and schedules hereto and the other Note
Documents. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein or therein.
This Agreement, together with the exhibits and schedules hereto, and the other Note Documents supersede all prior agreements and understandings
between the parties with respect to such subject matter.
13.12
Certain Expenses. The Borrower will pay all expenses of the Purchaser (including, without limitation, reasonable fees, charges
and disbursements of counsel to the Purchaser) in connection with (a) any enforcement, amendment, supplement, modification or waiver
of or to any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Note Documents or any documents relating thereto (including, without limitation,
a response to a request by the Borrower for the consent of the Purchaser to any action otherwise prohibited hereunder or thereunder),
(b) consent to any departure from, the terms of any provision of this Agreement or such other documents, and (c) any redemption of the
Note or any equity or other interests in the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower owned by such Holder.
13.13
Publicity. Except as may be required by Requirements of Law (including filings by the Holder with the SEC as required under
the Securities Act or other applicable law), none of the parties hereto shall issue a publicity release or announcement or otherwise
make any public disclosure concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, without prior approval by the other party
hereto. If any announcement is required by law to be made by any party hereto, prior to making such announcement such party will deliver
a draft of such announcement to the other parties and shall give the other parties an opportunity to comment thereon. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, any party to this Agreement and the other Note Documents (and any employee, representative, or other
agent of any such party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, such party’s tax treatment and the
tax structure of the Transactions and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating
to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided, however, notwithstanding the above, any such information and materials
shall be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply with applicable securities laws. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Borrower shall be permitted to disclose this Agreement and the Note Documents to any Governmental Authority in connection
with any licensing or accreditation necessary or desirable to the conduct of the Borrower’s business (it being understood that
the Borrower shall provide advance notice of such disclosure to the Purchaser, to the extent practicable).
13.14
Further Assurances. Each of the parties shall execute such documents and perform such further acts (including, without limitation,
obtaining any consents, exemptions, authorizations, or other actions by, or giving any notices to, or making any filings with, any Governmental

to the limitations set forth herein.

the other Note Documents. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises under any provision of this Agreement

Property Security Agreement has been filed with the applicable Governmental Authority, the Security Interests will constitute perfected

therein except for Permitted Liens; and (3) when each control agreement has been executed and delivered to the Purchaser, the Security

them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies
of a secured party under the UCC or any other Requirements of Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Purchaser, without
demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred
to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby
waived), may in such circumstances, forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or
may, subject to the approval of the Required Holders, forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise
dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public
or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Purchaser or any other Holder or elsewhere upon such
terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without
assumption of any credit risk. The Purchaser may disclaim all warranties in connection with any sale or other disposition of the Collateral,
including, without limitation, all warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like. The Purchaser shall have the right
upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or
any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived
and released. Each Grantor further agrees that, during the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, and at the Purchaser’s

demands it may acquire against the Purchaser or any other Holder arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder except to
the extent any such claims, damages, or demands result solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Purchaser or any
Holder, in each case against whom such claim is asserted. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be
required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

with the terms of this Agreement or the other Note Documents. To that end, if the Purchaser transfers all or any portion of the pledged
Collateral into its name or the name of its nominee, to the extent authorized to do so under this Agreement or any of the other Note
Documents, the Purchaser shall, upon the request of such Grantor, unless an Event of Default exists, execute and deliver or cause to
be executed and delivered to such Grantor, proxies with respect to the pledged Collateral pledged by such Grantor. Each of the Grantors
hereby grants to the Purchaser an irrevocable proxy such that from and after written notice to such Grantor, after the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, of an intent to exercise such rights, the Purchaser shall be entitled to exercise all
voting powers pertaining to such Grantor’s pledged Collateral at all times during the existence of an Event of Default, including
the power to call and attend all meetings of the shareholders or members of the applicable Issuer to be held from time to time with full

Interests shall have been transferred into its name or the name of its nominee or nominees), give all consents, waivers and ratifications

Interests at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members of the relevant Issuers or otherwise and (B) any and all rights of conversion,

right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Investment Property or Partnership/LLC Interests with any committee, depository, transfer
agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Purchaser may determine), all without liability except
to account for property actually received by it; but the Purchaser shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege
or option and the Purchaser and the other Holders shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing. In furtherance
thereof, each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer with respect to any Collateral consisting of Investment Property or
Partnership/LLC Interests to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Purchaser in writing that (A) states that an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further
instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying following receipt of
such notice and prior to notice that such Event of Default is no longer continuing, and (ii) except as otherwise expressly permitted
hereby, pay any dividends, distributions or other payments with respect to any Investment Property or Partnership/LLC Interests directly
to the Purchaser; and

other Note Documents or any Requirements of Law, and (C) sell, assign or otherwise transfer any material Contractual Obligation in accordance
with the Purchase Agreement, the other Note Documents and any Requirements of Law, subject, however, to the prior approval of each other
party to such material Contractual Obligation, to the extent required under such material Contractual Obligation.
(c) Unless
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Purchaser shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the
Purchaser’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3(b), each
Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends, payments or other distributions made in respect of any Investment Property
and any Partnership/LLC Interests, in each case paid in the normal course of business of the relevant Issuer and consistent with
past practice, to the extent permitted in the Purchase Agreement and the other Note Documents, and to exercise all voting and other
corporate, partnership and limited liability company rights with respect to any Investment Property and any Partnership/LLC
Interests; provided, however, that, no vote shall be cast or other corporate, partnership and limited liability company right
exercised or other action taken which, in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, would impair the Collateral in any material
respect or which would result in a Default or Event of Default under any provision of the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any
other Note Document.
(d)
Assignment of Claims. Each Grantor shall execute and deliver an assignment of claims agreement, in form and substance reasonable
satisfactory to the Purchaser, with respect to all litigation claims held by such Grantor (including all Commercial Tort Claims), which

or in part of the Obligations (after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental
to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Purchaser and the other
Holders hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in accordance with the
Purchase Agreement. Only after (i) the payment by the Purchaser of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without
limitation, Section 9-610 and Section 9-615 of the UCC and (ii) the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, shall the Purchaser account
for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor, or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same (if such Person is not a Grantor).

Each
Grantor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by any Requirements of Law, all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension
or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any Requirements of Law in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement
or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of
any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of
any attorneys employed by the Purchaser to collect such deficiency.

of the Parties under this Agreement, and the same shall continue and survive the completion
of said sale. |
| (c) | Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, along with the Schedules and Exhibits referenced herein, constitutes
the entire agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof, superseding
all previous agreements, proposals, representations, or understandings, whether oral or written.
It may be modified only by a writing duly executed by each of the Parties hereto or their
successors or assigns. |
| (d) | Assignment.
Buyer may freely assign its rights or delegate or novate any of its obligation under this
Agreement to any Affiliate or to any Third Party without the consent of Seller. Seller may
not assign this Agreement, or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, without
the prior written consent of Buyer, which will not be unreasonably withheld This Agreement
is binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors
and permitted assigns. |
| (e) | Governing
Law; Arbitration. This Agreement shall be construed according to and governed by the
laws of the State of Kansas without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. Any dispute,
claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination,
enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope
or applicability of this Agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration to take
place in Kansas City, Missouri. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”) utilizing the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
AAA (“Rules”), as modified by any other instructions that the Parties
may agree to at that time, except that each Party shall have the right to conduct discovery
in any manner and to the extent authorized by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure as interpreted
by the federal courts. If there is any conflict between the Rules and the provisions of this
Section16(e), the provisions of this Section 16(e) shall prevail. This clause shall not preclude
the Parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate
jurisdiction. In the event that the arbitrator issues an interim award for provisional relief,
either Party may petition a court of appropriate jurisdiction to confirm, correct or vacate
the interim award. |
There
shall be three arbitrators unless the Parties are able to agree to a single arbitrator. In the absence of such agreement, within ten
(10) days after the initiation of an arbitration proceeding, Seller shall select one arbitrator and Buyer shall select another arbitrator,
and those two arbitrators shall select, within ten (10) days, a third arbitrator. If those two arbitrators, within ten (10) days, are
unable to select a third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the commercial panel of the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”). The decision in writing of at least two of the three arbitrators shall be final and binding upon the Parties. In
selecting arbitrators pursuant to this Section, the arbitrators must have experience in the field of intellectual property law.
The
arbitrators shall be bound by and shall strictly enforce the terms of this Agreement, and may not limit, expand or otherwise modify its
terms. The arbitrators shall make a good faith effort to apply substantive applicable law but an arbitration decision shall not be subject
to review because of errors of law. The arbitrators shall be bound to honor claims of attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine
recognized at law but the arbitrator shall have discretion to determine whether any such claim of privilege or work product doctrine
applies.
The
arbitrators’ decision shall provide a reasoned basis for the resolution of each dispute and for any award. The arbitrators shall
not have power to award damages in connection with any dispute in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual
damages or award consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, nor award any other damages that are excluded under any provisions of
this Agreement.
Each
party shall bear its own fees and expenses with respect to the arbitration and any proceeding related thereto and the Parties shall share
equally in the fees and expenses of the AAA and the arbitrators.
Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, the arbitrators shall have the power and authority to award any remedy or judgment that could
be awarded by a state of federal court with jurisdiction in the state of Kansas. The award rendered by arbitration shall be final and
binding upon the Parties and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States.
| (f) | Signatures.
This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, all of which together shall constitute
one agreement binding on all Parties hereto, notwithstanding that all the Parties have not
signed the same counterpart. A signature provided by electronic or facsimile transmission
shall constitute a valid signature for the purpose of this Agreement. |
| (g) | Negotiated
Transaction. The provisions of this Agreement were negotiated by the Parties hereto and
said Agreement shall be deemed to have been drafted by all the Parties hereto. |
| (h) | Exhibits;
Schedules. All of the Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement are hereby incorporated
herein by this reference and made a part of this Agreement. |
| (i) | Further
Assurances. Seller agrees that it will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and
delivered from time to time such instruments, documents, agreements, and consents and assurances,
and take such other actions as Buyer reasonably may require to more effectively convey, transfer
to and vest in Buyer and to put Buyer in possession of the Purchased Assets. |
| (j) | Buyer’s
Investigations. No investigation by Buyer shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligation
or liability of Seller with respect to any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
made herein or in any other certificate, instrument, agreement or document executed or delivered
in connection with this Agreement unless such investigation and knowledge derived therefrom
results in a breach of Buyer’s warranties made in Section 9 or otherwise in this Agreement. |
| (k) | Interpretation.
Any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and
neutered forms. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including”
shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The words
“herein,” “hereof,” “hereto,” “hereunder,”
and similar terms shall refer to this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires. The
references to Exhibits, Sections, Subsections, or Articles are references to the Exhibits,
Sections, Subsections or Articles of this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires. |
| (l) | Headings.
The headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience
of reference only and shall in no way restrict or otherwise modify any of the terms or provisions
hereof. |
| (m) | Severability.
In the event any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable
to any extent, (i) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement
shall not be affected thereby, (ii) said provision shall be modified by the court to the
extent necessary to render it not illegal, invalid or unenforceable, and (iii) this Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect as modified and shall be enforced to the greatest
extent permitted by law. |
| (n) | No
Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is entered into for the benefit of the Parties
hereto and no person and no Party hereto shall have any rights, except as expressly stated
herein, to object to or recover any damage or loss resulting from any course of conduct by
any of the Parties or by reason of any amendment hereto or the failure of any Party to enforce
the obligation of any other Party hereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as
creating any third-party beneficiary rights in or to any third person. |
| (o) | Specific
Performance; Injunctive Relief. The Parties hereto expressly acknowledge and agree that
the Purchased Assets are special and unique and that a breach of any of the terms or provisions
of this Agreement in respect to the sale and purchase thereof will result in irreparable
injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law, and therefore, notwithstanding anything
herein or otherwise to the contrary, Buyer and Seller shall be entitled to equitable relief
and specific performance to compel compliance hereunder, without the requirement for posting
any bond or security. |
| (p) | Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT
TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. |
| (q) | Remedies.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies herein conferred upon
a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby,
or by law or equity, upon such Party. |

KUSTOM
ENTERTAINMENT ACQUIRES PRESTIGIOUS COUNTRY STAMPEDE MUSIC FESTIVAL
Growing
entertainment company adds historic and impactful festival, as it gains momentum leading into 2024 festival season
KANSAS
CITY, March 5, 2024 – Digital Ally, Inc. (NASDAQ: DGLY) – Kustom Entertainment, Inc. (“Kustom Entertainment”),
a premier live event marketing and concert production company and current subsidiary of Digital Ally Inc. (“Digital
Ally”) (Nasdaq: DGLY), is thrilled to announce the recent acquisition of the renowned Country Stampede Music Festival. This
strategic move marks a significant milestone for Kustom Entertainment, solidifying its presence and influence in the entertainment industry.
Established
in 1996, the Country Stampede Music Festival is an annual three-day outdoor music and camping extravaganza that has become a cherished
tradition, attracting country music enthusiasts from far and wide. The festival, nationally recognized as one of the largest music festivals
in the Midwest, has hosted some of the biggest names in country music, including Taylor Swift, Chris Stapleton, Kenny Chesney, Faith
Hill, Miranda Lambert, Reba McEntire, Tim McGraw, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, LeAnn Rimes, and many more.
Country
Stampede won the coveted Governor’s Outstanding Tourism Event award in the State of Kansas and has been honored with numerous other
awards over the years. Television shows such as the CMT Top 20 Countdown, Ellen, and The Outdoor Channel have filmed and broadcast live
from the Country Stampede Music Festival.
Expressing
his excitement about the acquisition, Stan Ross, CEO of Kustom Entertainment, stated, “We are honored to carry on the tradition
of Country Stampede Music Festival. This acquisition is more than a business venture; it is a celebration of the rich history and culture
of country music. We are committed to preserving the festival’s legacy while introducing new elements that will captivate music
fans for years to come.”
Kustom
Entertainment plans to build upon this festival’s legacy and broaden the presence of Country Stampede in further states in the
years to come. Kustom Entertainment promises a seamless transition for both fans and partners, and an unforgettable experience for all
attendees. The festival features a 2024 lineup that includes Chris Janson, Riley Green, Jon Pardi, among other artists, and runs this
summer from June 27th to 29th at Azura Amphitheatre in Bonner Springs, Kansas.

“future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,”
“will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions are intended to identify

are not limited to: (i) the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which Kustom

relationships with buyer, sellers and distribution partners may adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations,
(iv) the risk that Changes in Internet search engine algorithms and dynamics, or search engine disintermediation, or changes in marketplace

may result in decreased demand for Kustom Entertainment’s services; (vii) the risk that Kustom Entertainment is not able to maintain

and results of operations, (viii) the risk of the occurrence of extraordinary events, such as terrorist attacks, disease epidemics or

or years may not be indicative of, or comparable to, Kustom Entertainment’s financial performance in subsequent financial quarters
or years; (x) the risk that periods of rapid growth and expansion could place a significant strain on Kustom Entertainment’s resources,
