Tastemaker Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "**Maker**"), promises to pay to the order of Tastemaker Sponsor LLC or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the "**Payee**"), or order, the principal sum of $878,078.10 or such lesser amount as shall have been advanced by Payee to Maker and shall remain unpaid under this Note on the Maturity Date (as defined below) in lawful money of the United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below. All payments on this Note shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or as otherwise determined by the Maker to such account as the Payee may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note.

**1.** **Principal**. The entire unpaid principal balance of this Note shall be payable by the Maker on the
earlier of (such date, the "**Maturity Date** "), subject to <u>Section 14</u> below, (a) the date on which Maker consummates
its initial business combination and (b) the date of the liquidation of Maker. The principal balance may be prepaid at any time, at the
election of Maker. Under no circumstances shall any individual, including but not limited to any officer, director, employee or stockholder
of the Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of the Maker hereunder.

**2.** **Drawdown Requests**. The principal of this Note may be drawn down from time to time prior to the
Maturity Date upon written request from Maker to Payee (each, a "**Drawdown Request** "). Each Drawdown Request must state
the amount to be drawn down, and must not be an amount less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) unless agreed upon by Maker and Payee.
Payee shall fund each Drawdown Request no later than five (5) business days after receipt of a Drawdown Request; provided, however, that
the maximum amount of drawdowns collectively under this Note may not exceed $878,078.10; and, provided further, for the avoidance of doubt,
that Payee shall have the sole discretion whether to service any Drawdown Request and if Payee determines not to service a Drawdown Request,
Payee shall have no obligation to do so. Once an amount is drawn down under this Note, it shall not be available for future Drawdown Requests
even if prepaid. No fees, payments or other amounts shall be due to Payee in connection with, or as a result of, any Drawdown Request
by Maker.

**3.** **Interest**. No interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

**4.** **Application of Payments**. Notwithstanding <u>Section 2</u> above, all payments shall be applied
first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due under this Note, including (without limitation) reasonable
attorney's fees, and then to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

**5.** **Use of Proceeds**. The Maker hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Payee, that the entire
principal amount will be used by the Maker solely for purposes of making payments to extend the period the Maker has to complete an initial
business combination as described in the final proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 18, 2022.

**6.** **Events of Default**. The following shall constitute an event of default ()"**Event of Default** "):

this Note within five (5) business days of the Maturity Date.

(b) <u>Breach of Use of Proceeds</u>. Failure by Maker to comply with the provisions of <u>Section 5</u> of
this Note.

(c) <u>Voluntary Bankruptcy, Etc.</u> The commencement by Maker of a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, rehabilitation or other similar law, or the consent by it to the appointment of or taking possession by a
receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its
property, or the making by it of any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure of Maker generally to pay its debts as such
debts become due, or the taking of corporate action by Maker in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

(d) <u>Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc.</u> The entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction
in the premises in respect of Maker in an involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or appointing
a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property,
or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a
period of 60 consecutive days.

**7.** **Remedies**.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in <u>Section 6(a)</u> or <u>Section 6(b)</u> hereof,
Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of this
Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the
contrary notwithstanding.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in <u>Sections 6(c)</u> or <u>Section 6(d)</u>, the
unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other sums payable with regard to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become
due and payable, in all cases without any action on the part of Payee.

**8.** **Enforcement Costs**. In case any principal of this Note is not paid when due, Maker shall be liable
for all costs of enforcement and collection of this Note incurred by the Payee and any other Holders (as defined below), including but
not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses.

**9.** **Waivers**. Maker and all endorsers and guarantors of, and sureties for, this Note waive presentment
for payment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest with regard to the Note, all errors, defects and imperfections
in any proceedings instituted by Payee under the terms of this Note, and all benefits that might accrue to Maker by virtue of any present
or future laws exempting any property, real or personal, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of any such property, from
attachment, levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, or extension of time for
payment; and Maker agrees that any real estate that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof, or any writ of
execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in any order desired by Payee.

**10.** **Unconditional Liability**. Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance,
performance, default, or enforcement of the payment of this Note, and agrees that its liability shall be unconditional, without regard
to the liability of any other party, and shall not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver or
modification granted or consented to by Payee, and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that
may be granted by Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that additional makers, endorsers, guarantors,
or sureties may become parties hereto without notice to Maker or affecting Maker's liability hereunder. Any failure of the Payee
to exercise any right hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at any time and
from time to time thereafter. The Payee may accept late payments, or partial payments, even though marked "payment in full"
or containing words of similar import or other conditions, without waiving any of its rights.

Note shall be made in writing and delivered: (i) personally or sent by first class registered or certified mail, overnight courier service

Any notice or other communication so transmitted shall be deemed to have been given on the day of delivery, if delivered personally, on
the business day following receipt of written confirmation, if sent by facsimile or electronic transmission, one (1) business day after
delivery to an overnight courier service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail.

**13.** **Severability**. Any provision contained in this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating
the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction.

**14.** **Trust Waiver**. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the following sentence
of this <u>Section 14</u>, the Payee hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind ()"**Claim** ")
