**RULE 13e-3 TRANSACTION STATEMENT**

**INTRODUCTION**

This Amendment No. 2 to Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (this "***Amendment No. 2***") is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***SEC***") pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "***Exchange Act***"), by 5&2 Studios, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***"), The Chosen Productions, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, Dallas Jenkins, Derral Eves, Brad Pelo and JD Larsen (collectively, the "***Filing Persons***") to amend and supplement the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the "***Original Schedule 13E-3***") filed with the SEC on December 31, 2025 (the Original Schedule 13E-3 as so amended and supplemented, this "***Schedule 13E-3***").

At the Company's 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company's stockholders of record voted to, among other matters, approve a proposed amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to change the number of issued and outstanding shares of Series A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "***Series A Common Stock***"), and Series B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "***Series B Common Stock***" and, together with the Series A Common Stock, the "***Common Stock***"), of the Company, by effecting a 1-for-173,750 reverse stock split (the "***Reverse Stock Split***"), as a result of which stockholders of record will receive a cash payment of $3.75 per pre-Reverse Stock Split share in lieu of receiving a fractional post-Reverse Stock Split share, subject to receipt of the requisite stockholder approval and final approval by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "***Board***") of definitive financing to fund the payments for fractional shares and related fees and expenses associated with the Reverse Stock Split.

The Company's stockholders approved the Reverse Stock Split with 70,547,379 votes in favor, 233,565 votes against and 37,125 votes abstaining.

The Company intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC to terminate registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to suspend its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act immediately after the filing thereof.

The primary purpose of the Reverse Stock Split is to enable the Company to cause the number of record holders of its Common Stock to fall below 300, which is the level at which SEC public reporting is required. After the completion of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company intends to cease registration of its Common Stock under the Exchange Act. As a result, effective on and following the termination of the registration of the Company's Common Stock under the Exchange Act, the Company would no longer be subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, or other requirements applicable to a public company, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the listing standards of a national stock exchange.

The Company filed a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the "***Proxy Statement***") on March 17, 2026, pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act. The information contained in the Proxy Statement, including all annexes thereto, is expressly incorporated herein by reference and the responses to each item of this Schedule 13E-3 are qualified in their entirety by reference to the information contained in the Proxy Statement.
