From the date set forth above until paid-in-full, this Note shall bear interest on the unpaid balance of the Principal Amount thereof at an interest rate equal to eight percent (8%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”), Interest shall be payable by Maker to Payee on the first day of each calendar quarter (October 1, January 1, April 1, and July 1) and on the Maturity Date.

3.Payment of Principal; Prepayment. Maker shall pay the amounts due under this Note in accordance with the following: (a) beginning on the Effective Date, all accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Amount that is outstanding on the first day of each calendar quarter shall be due and payable on that date; (b) beginning July 1, 2025, $62,500 of the Principal Amount and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Principal Amount that is outstanding on the first day of each calendar quarter shall be due and payable on the first day of such calendar quarter; and (c) on the Maturity Date, the final payment of the outstanding balance of the Principal Amount, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under this Note. For purposes of clarity, a schedule of payments that are due pursuant to this Note is attached hereto as Exhibit A. When used in this Note, the term “first day of each calendar quarter” shall mean October 1, January 1, April 1, or July 1, as applicable. This Note may be prepaid, in full or in part, without prepayment penalty by Maker. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of prepayment in full, interest shall accrue and be payable through the date of the prepayment. All payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Payee pursuant to Payee’s written instructions. All payments on this Note shall be first applied to the payment of any of Payee’s expenses or charges payable hereunder; next to accrued and unpaid interest; and then to unpaid Principal Amount, or in such other order as Payee may elect in its sole discretion. In the event that the Consulting Agreement of even date herewith between Maker and Bartell Global Inc., as consultant (the “Consulting Agreement”), is terminated by Maker without Cause (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) prior to the receipt by Sellers (as defined in the Agreement) of the Earn-out Payments (as defined in the Agreement) in an aggregate amount equal to $3,000,000 from

Maker, Maker shall make a prepayment to each Seller in an amount equal to 50% of the then-outstanding balance of the Principal Amount of this Note; provided, however, Maker shall only be required to make such prepayment to Sellers to the extent permitted under the Subordination Agreement of even date herewith by and between Fifth Third Bank, National Association and Sellers. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this Note, the Agreement, or any of the Ancillary Documents, Maker’s obligations and performance pursuant to this Note are guaranteed by Live Ventures Incorporated pursuant to that certain Guaranty (as defined in the Agreement), and Maker’s failure or inability to pay any amount due under this Note, or any prohibition that prevents Maker from paying any amount due under this Note, whether as a result of the Subordination Agreement or otherwise, shall not impair, excuse, or otherwise release Live Ventures Incorporated from its obligation to pay such amount to Payee pursuant to the Guaranty.

(b)The failure of Maker to comply with, or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant, or condition contained in this Note or any agreement related to this Note, including, but not limited to, the Security Agreement, the Agreement, and any of the Ancillary Documents (as defined in the Agreement). which failure is not cured within 30 days of written notice from Payee to Maker of such failure; provided, however, if such failure cannot reasonably be cured within such 30 day period and Maker is diligently proceeding to cure such failure, Maker shall have an additional 90 days within which to cure such failure;

6.Remedies. During the continuance of an Event of Default, the entire unpaid Principal Amount under this Note, all accrued and unpaid interest, and other sums and amounts under this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, without presentment, notice, protest, or demand of any kind (all of which are expressly waived by Maker as provided below); such amount due and payable shall bear interest at the Default Rate; and Payee may, in its sole discretion, initiate litigation to recover all sums due under this Note or exercise any other remedies that are available under this Note or applicable law. The charging or payment of any interest or delinquent payments shall not be construed as curing or correcting any default by Maker under this Note or as a waiver by Payee of any of its rights or remedies with respect to such default. Anything contained in this Note, the Security Agreement or the Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that Maker cures an Event of Default prior to the exercise of remedies by Payee, such Event of Default shall automatically be deemed cured, without the requirement of a waiver from Payee; provided that, however, an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5(g) or 5(h)) of this Note cannot be cured and shall automatically entitle to the exercise of remedies by Payee.

7.Security Interest; Right to Information. Maker’s obligations hereunder are secured by the Security Agreement (as defined in the Agreement), whereby Maker has granted to Payee a security interest in all of the assets of Maker. For so long as any amount is owed from Maker to Payee pursuant to this Note, Maker shall deliver a balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows to Payee on or before the 15th day of each calendar month setting for the operations of Maker and its direct and indirect subsidiaries for the year-to-date fiscal year of Maker and for the immediately preceding month (collectively, the “Financial Statements”). Maker represents and warrants that such Financial Statements shall be prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and shall be true, correct, and accurate and fairly reflect the operations of Maker and its direct and indirect subsidiaries for the applicable periods set forth in the Financial Statements.

(a)If while this Note is outstanding the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number and the Purchase Price Adjustment Escrow Fund is insufficient to cover the entire amount payable by Sellers to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.06(d)(i) of the Agreement (the amount of such deficiency, the “Adjustment Escrow Fund Deficiency Amount”), the then-outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be automatically debited, reduced and offset by an amount equal to the Adjustment Escrow Fund Deficiency Amount (but not below zero) by written notice to Payee (less any interest that accrued on such Adjustment Escrow Fund Deficiency Amount from the date of issuance of this Note through and including the date on which such automatic debit, reduction and offset occurs). For clarification purposes, the foregoing shall not relieve Payee (or Sellers’ if Sellers are not Payee) of Payee (or Sellers’ if Sellers are not Payee) obligation to pay the remaining amount of the Post Closing Adjustment (if any) pursuant to Section 2.06(d)(i) of the Agreement unless Maker or any of its Affiliates (as defined in the Agreement) exercise its right pursuant to this Section 9.

(b)If while this Note is outstanding Sellers shall become liable for Losses under Article VIII of the Agreement, subject to the limitations, adjustments, procedures (including any procedures regarding order of recovery) and provisions set forth therein (the amount of such Losses, the “Loss Amount”), the then-outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be automatically debited, reduced and offset by an amount equal to the Loss Amount (but not below zero) by written notice to Payee (less any interest that accrued on such Loss Amount from the date of issuance of this Note through and including the date on which such automatic debit, reduction and offset

occurs). For clarification purposes, the foregoing shall not relieve Payee (or Sellers’ if Sellers are not Payee) of Payee (or Sellers’ if Sellers are not Payee) obligation to pay the remaining amount of the Post Closing Adjustment (if any) pursuant to Section 2.06(d)(i) of the Agreement unless Maker or any of its Affiliates (as defined in the Agreement) exercise its right pursuant to this Section 9.

10.No Waiver. Delay or failure of the holder to exercise any or all of its rights and remedies shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same at that or any other time. The receipt of any payment after such payment is due and payable shall not be construed as a waiver of any default, and the receipt by the holder of less than the full amount of any payment shall be construed as being on account of such payment, and the holder may accept such payment without prejudice to the holder’s right to recover the balance of the amounts due under this Note or the holder’s right to pursue any other available remedies. No endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and the holder may accept such check or payment without prejudice to the holder’s right to recover the balance of the amounts due under this Note or to pursue any other available remedies. All rights and remedies of the holder hereof upon default hereunder shall be cumulative to the greatest extent permitted by law.

12.Maximum Legal Rate. Maker and Payee agree that no payment or other consideration made or agreed to be made by Maker to Payee pursuant to this Note shall, at any time, be in excess of the maximum rate of interest permissible by law.
