**Rivulet Entertainment, Inc.**

**Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements**

**For The Three Months Ended September 30, 2025**

**NOTE 1 – NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS**

On July 7, 2024 (the "Closing Date"), Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. ("The Company" or "Rivulet") completed its acquisition of certain wholly owned subsidiaries of Rivulet Media, Inc. In consideration for the acquisition of the entities, the Company agreed to transfer approximately $10 million and 97 million shares to the current owners of Rivulet Media, Inc. On May 19, 2025 the agreement was amended to reduce the cash portion of the purchase price from $10,000,000 to $6,450,000. Furthermore, the conditions subject to closing and the default provisions were eliminated. As of the date of this filing, the Company has transferred $2,950,000 to the former owners of Rivulet Media, Inc. and had an outstanding balance of $3,500,000, which was classified as other current liabilities on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger whereby the combined entities of Rivulet Media, Inc. were determined to be the accounting acquirer/legal acquiree and Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. was determined to be the accounting acquiree/legal acquirer.

The Company produces, distributes and markets feature-length films, television series and mini-series, and television movies, from initial creative development through principal photography, postproduction, distribution and ancillary sales.

The business strategy of Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. as it relates to films, television series, mini-series, and television movies is to enter into contracts with well-known actors and actresses, acquire scripts able to attract large audiences that have been overlooked by blockbuster producers, focus on cost control measures, obtain favorable tax credits and financing opportunities. Unlike many smaller producers, Rivulet is not targeting "artsy" niche markets but films that appeal to a wide audience. The Company's business plan as an independent film producer is to fully leverage all of its guaranteed contracts that it negotiates upfront for a film to be produced. This strategy permits the Company to raise less equity capital and obtain short-term bridge loans thereby permitting much larger budgets than historically could be obtained by independent film producers. Management believes this strategy enables the Company to produce films with budgets of up to $50 million although historically the Company has spent less than $15 million on each of its films to date. This strategy also permits the Company to forego the risks associated with a speculative movie venture which may or may not repay its funding sources by pre-selling contracts to distributors such as Netflix who are looking for content to reach its viewers. The Company can also determine whether to sell its domestic or international rights to another production company if unanticipated cash needs develop while in production.

The Company intends to grow and diversify its portfolio of content to capitalize on demand from emerging and traditional platforms throughout the world. The Company will attempt to maintain a disciplined approach to acquisition, production, and distribution of product by balancing its financial risks against the probability of commercial success for each project. The Company pursues the same disciplined approach to investments in, and acquisition of, libraries and other assets complementary to the business. The Company believes that its strategic focus on content and creation of innovative content distribution strategies will enhance its competitive position in the industry, ensure optimal use of the Company's capital, build diversified foundation for future growth, and generate significant long-term value for the Company's shareholders.

**NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

***Basis of Presentation***

These accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been presented in United States dollars ("$" or "USD") and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and with Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In addition, as a film production company, the Company also complies with the incremental guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 926, *Entertainment-Films*.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position at September 30, 2025, the results of its operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and cash flows for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or the full year.

In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the interim results and trends in the interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year or any future period.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all required information under U.S. GAAP to be considered a complete set of financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended June 30, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

***Principles of Consolidation***

The Company evaluates the need to consolidate other entities based on the guidance set forth in ASC 810*, Consolidation* ("ASC 810"). To that extent, the Company will consolidate entities in which it has a controlling financial interest based on the guidance in the ASC topic. For the periods presented, Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. consolidated included the following wholly owned subsidiaries:

***Going Concern***

The Company had cash of $41,724 as of September 30, 2025, negative working capital of $25.0 million and accumulated deficit of $11.9 million. Further, during the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $1.0 million and cash flow provided by operations of $0.9 million for the interim period ended September 30, 2025. As such, the Company concluded that there is substantial doubt its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company hopes to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern through its future sales of movie rights and future capital raises.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for the amounts recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash or cash equivalents.

***Film Costs***

In accordance with ASC 926, *Entertainment-Films*, the Company reports production costs incurred as a separate asset on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets ("Film costs"). Production costs include all direct negative costs incurred in the physical production of a film, such as compensation of cast and rental facilities on location, as well as allocations of production overhead and capitalized interest (if any). Further, costs incurred related to significant changes to a film are added to production costs and subsequently charged to expense when the Company recognizes the related revenue.

***Amortization of Film Costs***

As the Company's films are monetized on their own, the Company amortizes film costs using the individual-film-forecast-computation method. Pursuant to that method, unamortized film costs as of the beginning of the current fiscal year are multiplied by the individual-film-forecast-computation method fraction. To that extent, the Company will begin amortization of capitalized film costs when a film is released, and it begins to recognize revenue from that film. The Company will review and revise its estimate of ultimate revenue as of each reporting date to reflect the most currently available information. Changes to the estimate of ultimate revenue, if any, are accounted for prospectively. Amortization of film costs is presented as production cost amortization on the face of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not recognize any production cost amortization during the three months ended September 30, 2025 or 2024.

***Impairment of Capitalized Production Costs***

The Company will test its unamortized production costs whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a film may be less than its unamortized costs. If the Company determines that the fair value of a film is less than its unamortized production costs, then the unamortized capitalized costs for the film will be written down by the amount exceeding the film's fair value. The unit of account for impairment testing is the individual film being produced and the fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow technique.

***Recognition of Revenue from Contracts with Customers***

The Company recognizes revenue from its contracts with customers in accordance with the core principle outlined in ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*. Specifically, "to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services". To that extent, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the ASC Topic by applying the following five steps:

● Step 1-Identify the contract(s) with a customer

● Step 2-Identify the performance obligations in the contract

● Step 3-Determing the transaction price

● Step 4-Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

● Step 5-Recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation

The Company's contracts with its customers currently contain a single performance obligation comprised of a license to motion picture rights. In accordance with ASC 606, the Company (i.e. the "licensor") has concluded that the license transfer should i) be considered functional intellectual property and ii) that customers (the "licensees" or "distributors") are therefore granted a right to use the Company's intellectual property as it exists at the point in time at which the license is granted. As such, revenue is recognized at a point in time upon the Company's delivery of the license to the licensee. The Company does not currently provide any form of extended payment terms to its customers and, as such, a fixed payment is typically received from the customer within 90 days after the license is transferred.

In determining the transaction price, the Company's contracts with its customers do not include a significant financing component, non-cash consideration or consideration payable to the customer. However, the Company's contracts typically will include sales-based or usage-based royalties that are triggered by the attainment of certain levels of box office receipts or video on demand ("VOD") purchases. To that extent, in accordance with ASC 606-10-55, the Company will recognize the sales-based or usage-based royalties only when the later of the following events occur-a) the subsequent sale or usage occurs or b) the performance obligation to which the sales-based or usage-based royalty has been satisfied. The Company did not recognize any revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2025 or 2024.

As it pertains to incremental costs of obtaining a contract, the Company does not incur any type of sales commissions.

***Exploitation and Participation Costs***

The Company accounts for advertising costs in accordance with ASC 720-35, *Other Expenses-Advertising Costs*. All other direct costs incurred in connection with the distribution of a film are expensed as incurred. In addition, the Company will begin to accrue (expense) participation costs when i) a film is released and ii) it begins to recognize revenue from the film. Participation costs are accrued (expensed) using the individual-film-forecast-computation method. The Company incurred participation costs of $0 for three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Additionally, the Company had accrued participation cost expenses of $311,469 as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, which are presented in accrued expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company paid no participation costs during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The remaining accrued participation costs are expected to be paid during the upcoming operating cycle.

***Investments in Equity Securities***

The Company accounts for its investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment in accordance with ASC 321, *Investments-Equity Securities*. Further, the Company will continue to recognize its investments without a readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment until the investment does not qualify to be measured as such. To that extent, the Company will re-assess at the end of each reporting period whether the investment still qualifies to be recognized at cost minus impairment.

In addition to assessing whether the investments still qualify to be recognized at cost minus impairment, the Company will also make a qualitative assessment at the end of each reporting period considering impairment indicators to evaluate whether the investment is impaired. If the qualitative assessment indicates that the investment is impaired and the fair value of the investment is less than its carrying value, then the investment will be written down to fair value. The Company did not recognize any impairments for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

***General and Administrative Expenses***

The Company's general and administrative expenses primarily consist of participation costs, personnel and related costs, including employee salaries, legal fees relating to corporate matters, accounting and audit related costs, insurance, corporate communications, information technology and related expenses.

***Income Taxes***

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, "*Income Taxes*." Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

***Net Loss Per Share***

Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similarly to the basic earnings per share, except the weighted average number of common shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of share options, if dilutive. The Company had no outstanding shares issuable to be excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented.

***Concentration of Credit Risk***

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. As of September 30, 2025, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

**Accounts Receivable**

Accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represent their estimated net realizable value, which approximates fair value. Provisions for doubtful accounts are recorded based on historical collection experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Receivables are written off when they are deemed uncollectible.

***Fair Value Measurements***

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;

● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The reporting amount of cash represents fair value due to its liquid nature. Further, the stated amounts of related and non-related notes payable also represent fair value as the borrowings are issued at prevailing market rates. As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the Company did not have any assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

***Related Party Disclosures***

The Company discloses all related party transactions in accordance with the guidance in ASC 850, *Related Party Disclosures*. To that extent, amounts of related party transactions are stated on the face of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (as applicable).

***Segment Reporting***

The Company currently operates in a single operating segment. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Company's chief operating decision maker ("the CODM"). The Company's CODM, which is its Chief Executive Officer, views the Company's operations and manages its business as a single operating segment, which is currently movie film production. The CODM primarily evaluates cash flow from operations and overall liquidity to determine its ability to deliver its picture films.

***Commitments and Contingencies***

The Company accounts for contingencies in accordance with ASC 450-20, *Contingencies.* Certain conditions may exist as of the date the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. The Company is not currently involved in any legal proceedings that could require either accrual or disclosure.

In addition to the stated interest rates on the loans, certain of our notes payable include a net profit participation feature whereby the lender may receive an additional return based on the performance of the film underwritten by the loan. Certain of these loans are collateralized by interests in film rights the Company owns.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements***

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09-*Income Taxes* (Topic 740)-Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires entities to provide additional information in the rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. The guidance should be applied prospectively and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 for public business entities. This guidance is applicable for smaller reporting companies effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company does not expect the issued standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures* (Subtopic 220-40). The amendments in this update require disclosure, in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the new ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

**NOTE 3 – FILM COSTS COMPONENTS**

Components of production costs for films predominantly monetized on their own were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **As of** | **As of** |
|  | **September 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** |
| Completed and not released | $14783168 | $— |
| In production |  | 14215580 |
| Preproduction | 872992 | 798014 |
| Total | $15656160 | $15013594 |

**NOTE 4 – DEPOSITS**

As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the Company held deposits of $846,892 and $866,440, respectively, with various film unions, in accordance with the requirements of collective bargaining agreements. These deposits are classified as non-current assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The deposits are intended to secure the Company's obligations for union-related benefits, including health and retirement contributions for eligible union members.

The deposits are refundable upon fulfillment of the Company's obligations under the terms of the agreements or upon termination of the agreements. As of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the Company is in compliance with all applicable union requirements, and no deposits are subject to forfeiture. The Company monitors its compliance with these agreements on an ongoing basis to ensure all obligations are met.

**NOTE 5 – INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITIES**

During June of 2023 the Company made a $2,000,000 equity investment in Casa Azul Spirits, LLC, a tequila Company incorporated in Delaware, which gave the Company a 5% ownership stake. As the Company neither controls nor has significant influence over the investee, the investment is recognized in accordance with ASC 321, *Equity Securities*. Further, as the equity investment does not have a readily determinable fair value and does not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value (outlined in ASC 820-10), the Company recognizes its investments in Casa Azul at cost minus impairment.

The carrying amount of the investment in Casa Azul was $1,000,000 as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized a $1.0 million impairment on its original $2.0 million investment, resulting in a carrying value of $1.0 million as of June 30, 2025. The Company considered the price per share disclosed in subscription agreements issued by Casa Azul in determining the carrying amount of the investment as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025.

**NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE AND RELATED PARTY LOANS**

The Company enters into loan agreements with both related and non-related parties in order to fund their ongoing film production activities. To that extent, the Company had the following outstanding debt as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025:

---

As of September 30, 2025, approximately $998,000 of notes were in default as a result of provisions in the respective note agreements related to various maturity dates or requiring payment upon sale of a film, which has yet to be fulfilled by the Company. As of the date of the filing, approximately $998,000 were still in default and bore an interest rate of 10% to 20%.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company entered into certain note agreements totaling approximately $1.0 million. These notes bear interest at rates of 10% to 20%, and mature dependent upon factors related to future film sales or the closing of a senior debt facility.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repaid approximately $2.0 million of notes payable.

In addition to the stated interest rates on the loans, certain loans include a net profit participation feature whereby the lender may receive an additional return based on the performance of the film underwritten by the loan. Certain of these loans are collateralized by interests in film rights the Company owns. Additionally, certain of these notes are guaranteed by an individual who is a related party. To that extent, none of the participation features were triggered as of September 30, 2025. In addition, certain tax credit assignment loans totaling $750,000 were entered into during fiscal year 2024 whereby the lenders agreed to be paid (on a dollar per dollar basis) from the proceeds of a refundable tax credit related to the production of the Nutcracker film. While the tax credit was not received as of September 30, 2025, the Company expects to receive the credit in the near future and has therefore classified the tax assignment loans as current. In order to receive this tax credit, the Company must have an audit performed on the required financial information, which is currently in-process.

**NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

*Rivulet Media, Inc.*

As part of the merger transaction, the transferred entities had $7,888,316 of intercompany loans with Rivulet Media, Inc. as of June 30, 2024. The intercompany loans did not include a stated interest rate or due date. Further, as a result of the transaction, the loans were forgiven by Rivulet Media, Inc. as of the merger consummation date. Upon settlement of the transaction an additional $189,649 of liabilities were forgiven, resulting in total liability forgiveness of $8,077,965. The debt forgiveness was recognized as an increase to additional paid in capital.

*Beneficial Owner*

During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company entered into a $2,880,000 note payable agreement with a certain beneficial owner of Rivulet Media, Inc. The notes are due on February 1, 2026 and have a stated interest rate of 15%. The balance of the loan was $2,880,000 as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025.

*Advances*

During the year ended June 30, 2025, the Company advanced funds to a producer at Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. in the amount of $307,000 which is included in other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The advance bears no interest and has no stated maturity date, which is not necessarily indicative of terms a third-party would contractually enter into. The outstanding balance of the advance was $307,000 as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025.

**NOTE 8 – REVERSE MERGER**

During July of 2024, certain combined entities of Rivulet Media, Inc. entered into a reverse merger with Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. In accordance with ASC 805, *Business Combinations*, it was determined that the combined entities should be considered the accounting acquirer and Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. should be considered the accounting acquiree.

In determining the number of shares outstanding as of the merger completion date, the Company utilized the guidance in ASC 805-40, *Reverse Acquisitions*. Specifically, while the combined entities (that were transferred as part of the transaction) did not have any shares outstanding as of the merger date, the Company established an exchange ratio based on the number of shares issued by Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. to effectuate the merger divided by the number of shares outstanding of Rivulet Media, Inc. consolidated immediately prior to the merger as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| Number of shares issued to effectuate the merger | **A** | 96722950 |
| Rivulet Media inc. consolidated shares outstanding-pre merger | **B** | 144,045,171 |
| Exchange ratio | **A/B** | 0.67 |

---

Further, for the recapitalization shares issued amount, the Company determined the implicit number of shares that Rivulet Media, Inc. would have had to issue in order to provide Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. with an approximate 12% interest in the combined company and multiplied that amount times the established exchange ratio as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| Gross implicit shares issued by Rivulet Media, inc. | **A** | 19320000 |
| Exchange ratio | **B** | 0.67 |
| Net implicit shares issued | **A\*B** | 12972926 |

**NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS**

In accordance with ASC 855, *Subsequent Events,* the Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to September 30, 2025 through the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Other than the below, there are no subsequent events identified that would require disclosure in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

***Debt Payments***

Payments on various notes payable of approximately $2.5 million were repaid subsequent to September 30, 2025.

**Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

*The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. To that extent, the information discussed below solely reflects the results of the combined entities that were transferred as part of the agreement with Rivulet Entertainment, Inc. This document contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. When used in this document, the words "expects", "anticipates", "intends" and "plans" and similar expressions are intended to identify certain of these forward-looking statements. The cautionary statements made in this document should be read as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this document. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in this document.*

*Liquidity and Capital Resources*

The Company had notes payable, which were used to fund our film production, totaling $19,970,674 as of September 30, 2025. Further, the Company still has a $3,500,000 outstanding balance to Rivulet Media, inc. stemming from the merger transaction.

The Company will incur significant capital costs as it continues to produce feature length films. In order to continue to produce films, the Company will need to raise funds through additional borrowings until such time as our operating revenues from the sale of films are sufficient to meet our cost structure, and ultimately provide profitable operations. There is no assurance we will be successful in raising additional capital or achieving profitable operations.

***Going Concern***

The Company had cash of $41,724 as of September 30, 2025, negative working capital of approximately $25.0 million and accumulated deficit of approximately $11.9 million. Further, during the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $1.0 million and cash flow provided by operations of approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. As such, the Company concluded that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company hopes to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern through its future sales of movie rights and future capital raises.

General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 totaled $657,779 and $496,578, respectively. General and administrative costs for the three months ended September 30, 2025 of $657,779 consisted of professional fees of $510,497, payroll costs of $101,777, travel, meals and entertainment costs of $20,202 and other general and administrative expenses of $25,303.

General and administrative costs for the three months ended September 30, 2024 of $496,578 consisted of professional fees of $187,972, music and musician expenses $87,275, travel & meals and entertainment of $91,598, payroll costs of $53,106, external communication of $34,346 and other general and administrative expenses of $42,281.

The increase in general and administrative for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily related to increases in professional fees related to legal and external financial services and wages expense for management salaries.

***Other (expense) income***

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, other income (expense) totaled ($308,311) which primarily consisted of interest expense of ($308,440). For the three months ended September 30, 2024, other income (expense) was ($106,786). The increase in other income (expense) was primarily due to the higher average outstanding balance of notes payable within the corporate entity during the period ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the period ended September 30, 2024. Portions of our interest costs related to notes payable are capitalized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 926, *Entertainment-Films* and therefore are expensed through the amortization of capitalized film costs. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company capitalized $0.2 million and $0 of interest expense to film costs related to various picture film productions, respectively.

*Critical Accounting Estimates*

***Impairment of Capitalized Production Costs***

The Company will test its unamortized production costs whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a film may be less than its unamortized costs. If the Company determines that the fair value of a film is less than its unamortized production costs, then the unamortized capitalized costs for the film will be written down by the amount exceeding the film's fair value. The unit of account for impairment testing is the individual film being produced and the fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow technique.

***Recognition of Revenue from Contracts with Customers***

The Company recognizes revenue from its contracts with customers in accordance with the core principle outlined in ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*. Specifically, "to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services". To that extent, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the ASC Topic by applying the following five steps:

● Step 1-Identify the contract(s) with a customer

● Step 2-Identify the performance obligations in the contract

● Step 3-Determing the transaction price

● Step 4-Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

● Step 5-Recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation

The Company's contracts with its customers currently contain a single performance obligation comprised of a license to motion picture rights. In accordance with ASC 606, the Company (i.e. the "licensor") has concluded that the license transfer should i) be considered functional intellectual property and ii) that customers (the "licensees" or "distributors") are therefore granted a right to access of the Company's intellectual property throughout the license period. As such, revenue is recognized at a point in time upon the Company's delivery of the license to the licensee. The Company does not currently provide any form of extended payment terms to its customers and, as such, a fixed payment is typically received from the customer within 90 days after the license is transferred.

In determining the transaction price, the Company's contracts with its customers do not include a significant financing component, non-cash consideration or consideration payable to the customer. However, the Company's contracts typically will include sales-based or usage-based royalties that are triggered by the attainment of certain levels of box office receipts or video on demand ("VOD") purchases. To that extent, in accordance with ASC 606-10-55, the Company will recognize the sales-based or usage-based royalties only when the later of the following events occur-a) the subsequent sale or usage occurs or b) the performance obligation to which the sales-based or usage-based royalty has been satisfied.

As it pertains to incremental costs of obtaining a contract, the Company does not incur any type of sales commissions.

***Investments in Equity Securities***

The Company accounts for its investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment in accordance with ASC 321, *Investments-Equity Securities*. Further, the Company will continue to recognize its investments without a readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment until the investment does not qualify to be measured as such. To that extent, the Company will re-assess at the end of each reporting period whether the investment still qualifies to be recognized at cost minus impairment.

In addition to assessing whether the investments still qualify to be recognized at cost minus impairment, the Company will also make a qualitative assessment at the end of each reporting period considering impairment indicators to evaluate whether the investment is impaired. If the qualitative assessment indicates that the investment is impaired and the fair value of the investment is less than its carrying value, then the investment will be written down to fair value.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements***

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09-*Income Taxes* (Topic 740)-Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires entities to provide additional information in the rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. The guidance should be applied prospectively and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 for public business entities. This guidance is applicable for smaller reporting companies effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company does not expect the issued standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures* (Subtopic 220-40). The amendments in this update require disclosure, in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the new ASU will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk**

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures**

*Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures*

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer/chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of September 30, 2025. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the appropriate time periods, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure. We, under the supervisions of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon such evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting due to a lack of segregation of duties and the lack of formal documentation of our control environment.

***Changes in internal control over financial reporting.***

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

If, within 20 business days after Company's receipt of such notice, Company notifies Licensor of its acceptance of the terms set forth therein, the parties will promptly enter into a long form agreement reflecting those terms subject to good faith negotiation of the terms of the long form. In the exercise of its last refusal rights, Company will not be obligated to accept terms and conditions that cannot be as practically met by one distributor as by another (e.g., required use of a particular third-party platform).

 only whether the Picture meets the criteria set forth in the applicable subsections immediately above. Licensor will not be entitled

 approval) edit the credits to comply with this Agreement or applicable guild or talent agreements.

| **17. Press Confirmation & Marketing Consultation; Talent Promotional and Publicity Services & Name and Likeness Rights** | a. | Company and Licensor will have the right to mutually approve the initial press confirmation or initial press release (if any) for the Picture, and the timing thereof. Otherwise, subject to any Third-Party Restrictions (as defined in Section 25(d) below), Company will control the worldwide marketing, promotion, and publicity in connection with its exploitation of the rights granted hereunder, and during the Term, Licensor will not release or authorize the release of any such marketing, promotions, publicity, or screenings of the Picture (to the public, or for marketing or research, or in connection with an incentive program, or otherwise) without Company's approval. During the Term, Licensor will not publicly exhibit any temporary logos or placeholders for the Picture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company will meaningfully consult with Licensor with respect to the Picture's initial release strategy; initial marketing campaign (e.g., the initial Apple TV and initial theatrical release, if any) and certain key marketing materials related thereto, such as, key art, trailers, and TV promo spots; festival submissions (if any); and any theatrical distribution partner, but with Company's decision in each such respect being final. For clarity, no inadvertent failure by Company to consult with Licensor as required under this subsection (a) will be deemed a breach of this Agreement, provided that Company takes commercially reasonable steps to cure any such failure once discovered. |
|  | b. | Licensor represents and warrants that the director, the producers, and lead cast of the Picture are each contractually required to provide customary in-person promotional and publicity services with respect to the Picture, and that their agreements allow for customary use of their respective names and likenesses in marketing, promotion, publicity, etc. |
|  | c. | ***<u>On a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basis</u>***, Company will provide Licensor with a reasonable number of invitations to major celebrity premieres of the Picture (if any), the exact number of which will be decided at the time by Company, taking into account various elements such as industry custom, the size of the theater, existing third-party contractual commitments and the like. For clarity, any such invitations will not include Company-provided travel, accommodations or transportation. |

| **18. Licensor Provided Marketing Materials** | Licensor will, at its sole cost (unless expressly approved otherwise by Company in writing) deliver to Company for Company's exploitation hereunder all marketing materials owned or controlled by Licensor or its affiliates, or, if applicable, its sales agent (e.g., trailers, alternative footage, clips, outtakes, deleted scenes, bonus content, featurettes, making-of, EPKs and stills) (the "**Licensor Provided Marketing Materials**"). ***<u>On a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basi</u>*<u>s</u>**, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, Company will be responsible for all reasonable duplication, shipping and insurance costs in connection with the delivery to Company of all such Licensor Provided Marketing Materials (such costs to be a recoupable expense subject to and in accordance with Section 11 [Licensor Backend]). Licensor will deliver the Licensor Provided Marketing Materials cleared for all of Company's marketing rights set forth in Section 10(a) above (including in the advertising of the Picture's availability on devices and services capable of exhibiting the Picture). Company will have the right to approve (not to be unreasonably withheld) any vendors providing Licensor Provided Marketing Materials that have not already been created as of the date this Agreement has been executed by the parties. |

|:---|:---|:---|
| **19. Other Marketing Materials** | a. | Company, at its own cost (such costs to be a recoupable expense subject to and in accordance with Section 11 [Licensor Backend]), may create and exploit in connection with the rights granted to Company hereunder, subject to any Third-Party Restrictions, marketing and promotional materials for the Picture by any and all means and media, whether now known or hereafter devised, including by creating clips, trailers, spots, augmented reality and virtual reality content, 3D content, mobisodes, webisodes, shoulder content, companion podcasts, print and digital publications, souvenir programs, "making of" books, coffee table books, playlists, games, electronic press kits, social media content, summaries, synopses, and bios ("**Other Marketing Materials**"), but will not offer Other Marketing Materials for individual retail sale (it being acknowledged that including such marketing and promotional materials as so-called "bonus materials" along with the Picture in any SVOD, EST, or VOD transaction, or making a souvenir program available in connection with a theatrical release [whether included within the price of admission or sold separately], will be permissible). ***<u>On a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basi</u>*<u>s</u>**, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, Company's creation and exploitation of either (i) any such companion podcasts, or (ii) videogames, for marketing, promotional and advertising purposes only, will each be subject to Licensor's prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. As between Company and Licensor, Company will be the exclusive owner of all rights, title, and interest in and to all Other Marketing Materials. If such materials do not qualify as promotional, and if any applicable guilds make economic claims against Licensor therefor, subject to Section 6(b) above, Company will reimburse Licensor for any guild-related costs per the applicable minimum scale under the applicable Pre-Approved Guild Agreement(s); provided, that Licensor may not enter into any settlement of such claims without first notifying Company and providing Company with a reasonable opportunity to settle such claims. |
|  | b. | If Licensor desires to use Other Marketing Materials in connection with its Reserved Rights, Licensor may request access thereto, and if Company provides any such Other Marketing Materials to Licensor, Company will be deemed to have licensed them to Licensor on an as-is, non-exclusive quitclaim basis for use in connection with the Reserved Rights, subject to: (i) Licensor reimbursing to Company an amount to be negotiated in good faith by the parties; (ii) Licensor indemnifying the Company Parties (as defined in Section 25(c) below) with respect to any Costs (as defined in Section 25(c) below) arising from the use of any such Other Marketing Materials by or on behalf of Licensor, its affiliates and/or licensees; and (iii) any use of any Company branding and/or trademarks incorporated into Other Marketing Materials being approved in advance by Company in each instance. ***<u>On a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basi</u>*<u>s</u>**, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, Licensor's post-Term access to Other Marketing Materials pursuant to this subsection (b) will be gratis, except for payment by Licensor to Company of all reasonable duplication, shipping and insurance costs in connection with such access. |

| **20. Advertising** | For the avoidance of doubt, Company will control, and have the right to sell, 100% of the advertising in connection with Company's exploitation of the Picture during the Term in the Territory and Licensor Provided Marketing Materials, and have the right to retain 100% of the revenue received in connection therewith. |

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **21. Production and Delivery Requirements** | a. | Licensor will deliver the Picture and the Licensor Provided Marketing Materials to Company: (i) in accordance with Company's standards and practices policy (subject to Licensor's prior receipt and review of the same), clearance guidelines, delivery requirements (which requires, among other things, 4k/HDR and Dolby Atmos), and the mutually approved delivery schedule(s); and (ii) fully cleared for exploitation of the rights licensed to Company hereunder. The parties acknowledge that Licensor will clear all third-party music for in-context advertising and promotional use; provided that if a given publisher or musical sound recording licensor refuses to license the use of such music for in-context advertising and promotional use, then Licensor will so notify Company and the parties will mutually determine whether to proceed with the use of such music without such in-context advertising and promotional rights, or to replace such music with an alternative for which such rights can be negotiated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby further acknowledged by Company that Licensor has notified Company that the publisher and musical sound recording licensors for the musical pieces entitled "Work Bitch" (Britney Spears) and "Scarborough Fair / Canticle" (Simon & Garfunkel) have refused to license the use of such music for in-context advertising and promotional use and the parties have mutually determined to proceed with the use of said musical pieces without such in-context advertising and promotional rights. Clearance for out-of-context advertising and promotional use of third-party music may require a separate license, at Company's expense, which Licensor will use good faith efforts to facilitate upon request, provided, however, that any failure of Licensor to obtain any such quote from a third-party for any such out-of-context advertising or promotional use shall not constitute a breach hereof. Timely delivery in accordance with the mutually-approved delivery schedule is of the essence to this Agreement. |
|  | b. | Licensor will comply with all applicable laws (including CCPA, GDPR and/or the Data Protection Act 2018, as applicable) in connection with the development, production, and exploitation of the Picture. As between Licensor and Company, Licensor will be the data controller in respect of any personal data processed by Licensor in connection with Licensor's development and production of the Picture ("**Picture Personal Data**"). To the extent that both Company and Licensor are found to be or agree that they are acting as joint controllers of Picture Personal Data in the course of performing their respective obligations and exercising their respective rights under this Agreement, each party will cooperate with the other in connection with any official government investigations, official government audits, and any actual data breaches involving the Picture Personal Data. Such cooperation will include promptly notifying the other party (in the case of Company such notification will be sent to dpo@apple.com; and in the case of Licensor such notification will be sent to <u>dboyle@intersectionlaw.com</u>) if any Picture Personal Data is lost or becomes damaged, corrupted or unusable, and, to the extent possible, restoration of such data as required by CCPA, GDPR or the Data Protection Act 2018. |
|  | c. | If a third party makes a non-frivolous claim that the material delivered by Licensor hereunder violates or infringes the rights of any third party or otherwise breaches any agreement with any third party, Licensor will resolve the claim and/or deliver, at its expense, a re-edited version of the applicable material, which does not include the allegedly infringing elements. |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. If:
 (i) Licensor fails to make a complete and timely delivery of the Picture (or to any element thereof) or Company determines that edits
 are necessary or advisable to comply with Pre-Approved Guild Agreements or credit requirements applicable to the Picture or to avoid
 any liability that Company reasonably believes might be imposed without such edits; (ii) Company provides notice of the same to Licensor
 and Licensor does not cure the same within the timeframe reasonably required by Company (provided that the edit is curable within
 that timeframe); and (iii) Company elects in its sole discretion to supply such items or to make such edits, then Company may charge
 any actual, verifiable, out-of-pocket third-party costs for such items to Licensor or deduct such cost from the License Fee payable
 hereunder.

e. For
 the avoidance of doubt, as between the parties, Company will be responsible for 100% of the cost of internationalizing the Picture
 and Licensor Provided Marketing Materials (including adding and creating foreign subtitles and dubs, which costs will be a recoupable
 expense subject to and in accordance with Section 11 [Licensor Backend]) provided that Licensor is responsible for clearing the Picture
 (including the English-language title therefor) and, pursuant to Section 18 above, Licensor Provided Marketing Materials. In connection
 with the foregoing, Licensor agrees that it will conduct title clearance pursuant to its customary practices to determine whether
 the English-language title appears available in the following jurisdictions: U.S. (federal and common law), Canada, United Kingdom,
 Mexico, European Union, Switzerland, Russian Federation, Brazil, India, China, Australia, Hong Kong, and Japan, and will follow up
 with counsel for further risk assessment as necessary.  ***<u>On a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basi</u>* <u>s</u>** ,
 Company hereby acknowledges that the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence are waived for the Picture. If Licensor desires
 to use any materials associated from Company's internationalization of the Picture (including, audio descriptions, closed captions,
 subtitle translations, and/or dubbing tracks) in connection with its Reserved Rights, Licensor may request access thereto, and if
 Company provides any such materials to Licensor, Company will be deemed to have licensed them to Licensor on an as-is, non-exclusive
 quitclaim basis for use in connection with the Reserved Rights, subject to: (i) Licensor reimbursing to Company an amount to be negotiated
 in good faith by the parties; (ii) Licensor indemnifying the Company Parties with respect to any Costs arising from the use of any
 such materials by or on behalf of Licensor, its affiliates and/or licensees; and (iii) any use of any Company branding and/or trademarks
 incorporated into such materials being approved in advance by Company in each instance.  ***<u>On a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basi</u>* <u>s</u>** , and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, Licensor's
 post-Term access to any materials associated from Company's internationalization of the Picture pursuant to this subsection
 (e) will be gratis, except for payment by Licensor to Company of all reasonable duplication, shipping and insurance costs in connection
 with such access.

|:---|:---|:---|
| **23. Records; Audits** | a. | Company will retain complete and accurate books and records with respect to amounts payable by Company to Licensor under Section 11 (Licensor Backend) above as and to the extent applicable. Company will maintain such books and records (collectively, "**Records**") at its principal office for a minimum of 3 years from receipt of the applicable receipts (the "**Audit Period**"). Upon no less than 10 business days' written notice, Licensor will have the right to examine and to audit the Records at Company's then principal place of business, at Licensor's sole expense and during normal business hours. Any such third-party auditor must be approved by Company (provided that Company may not unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay such approval), engaged on a non-contingency basis, and have entered into a non-disclosure agreement consistent with the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below). Licensor may not audit Company more than once in any 2-year period or 6 times in the aggregate. Each such audit may only cover the period commencing after the period covered by the last audit conducted by Licensor and pertain to Records within the Audit Period. Licensor will pay the costs of the audit. However, without limiting Licensor's other rights and remedies hereunder, if the audit reveals a discrepancy equal to the greater of: (a) $15,000; or (b) 5% of the amount payable for the applicable reporting period audited, Company will reimburse Licensor for the reasonable, out-of-pocket cost of the audit. |
|  | b. | <u>Notice of Audit to Company</u>. In addition to sending a notice to Company pursuant to Section 36 below, Licensor will send a notice of audit to the following address: Apple Video Programming LLC c/o Apple, Inc., 3710 S Robertson Blvd, 3210-ATV, Culver City, CA 90232, United States, Attn: Head of Finance, Original Content. |
| **24. Intellectual Property Enforcement** | a. | Company will have the right, but not the obligation, in Company's own name, to administer and enforce the copyright, trademark, and domain name rights granted herein and retain all recoveries and receipts derived from its enforcement, it being acknowledged that any such recoveries and receipts (after Company has recouped its reasonable third-party costs from such enforcement activities) will be accounted for pursuant to the Licensor Backend set forth in Section 11 (Licensor Backend) above as and to the extent applicable. Company may, on its own behalf and/or on behalf of Licensor, take such steps as Company deems appropriate by action at law or otherwise, to prevent any unauthorized reproductions, exhibition, or distribution of the Picture, or any infringement of the copyright on the Picture, or to prevent any impairment of, encumbrance on, or infringement upon the rights granted to Company under this Agreement, and to collect all proceeds from the exploitation of such rights. For the avoidance of doubt, Company will not be liable to Licensor as a result of any third-party infringement of any copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights in or to the Picture and Licensor Provided Marketing Materials. |
|  | b. | Company may also register and administer domain names for the Picture. |
|  | c. | Each party will cooperate with the other in connection with such enforcement. |

| **25. Representations, Warranties, Covenants; Indemnity** | a. | Each party represents and warrants that: (i) it has the right, power, and authority to enter into this Agreement; (ii) this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the parties enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof; and (iii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not cause either party to be in material breach of a third party agreement that would jeopardize its ability to perform its obligations. |
|  | b. | Licensor represents and warrants to, and covenants with, Company that (i) Licensor owns or controls, and will own or control throughout the Term, all rights in and to all materials delivered hereunder by Licensor to Company in connection with the Picture or the Licensor Provided Marketing Materials (collectively, the "**Material**") to the extent necessary to grant the rights granted to Company herein; (ii) the Material does not and will not infringe any trademark or copyright or, to the best of Licensor's knowledge in the exercise of reasonable diligence and prudence, infringe, violate or otherwise give rise to any adverse claim with respect to, any other common law or other right of any person, firm or entity, or violate any other applicable law; (iii) other than Permitted Liens (as defined below), there are not and will not be during the Term outstanding at any time any liens or encumbrances relating to the Material or that could impair, abrogate, or adversely affect any of the rights granted to Company herein, including any such lien or encumbrance arising from any financing or bonding relating to the Picture; and (iv) Licensor has obtained and will continue to obtain throughout the Term all licenses, releases, and clearances with respect to the Material required for the exercise of the rights granted to Company hereunder, and Licensor has made and will make throughout the Term all payments required in connection therewith. "**Permitted Liens**" means (x) customary liens required by applicable Pre-Approved Guild Agreements; (y) customary laboratory possessory liens; and (z) any liens to financiers, including tax credit lenders, that provided production financing to Licensor in connection with the Picture, subject to a fully executed agreement among Company, that Lender (as hereinafter defined), and Licensor, on terms and on a form approved by Company, Lender and Licensor in connection with the Picture (the "**Notice of Assignment and Subordination Agreement**"). Licensor hereby represents and warrants that no lien in the Picture was granted with respect to either production financing or tax credit lending to any party other than to the entity known as Genius Equity, LLC ("**Lender**"). |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. Licensor
 will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company, its affiliates, successors, licensees, and assigns, and each of their respective
 directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the "**Company Parties**") from and against any and
 all claims, losses, costs, expenses (including outside attorneys' reasonable fees), liabilities, judgments, penalties, and
 damages (collectively, "**Costs**") arising out of any third-party claim of any nature resulting from: (i) the development
 or production of the Picture or any Licensor Provided Marketing Materials; (ii) Licensor's exploitation of any reserved rights
 in the Material; (iii) any breach or alleged breach by Licensor of any of its representations, warranties, or covenants hereunder;
 or (iv) any intentional or grossly negligent wrongful act or omission by or on behalf of Licensor with respect to the Material, except
 in the case of subsections c(i) and (ii), to the extent arising from any claim for which Company is obligated to indemnify Licensor
 hereunder.

d. Company
 will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Licensor, its affiliates, successors, licensees and assigns, and each of their respective
 directors, employees, agents, and representatives from and against any and all Costs arising out of any third-party claim of any
 nature resulting from: (i) any breach or alleged breach by Company of any of its representations, warranties, or covenants hereunder;
 (ii) Company's exploitation of the Material or otherwise resulting from Company's advertising, promotion, distribution
 or other exploitation of the Picture; and (iii) any reasonable and customary obligations to talent applicable to Company's
 exploitation of the Material that Licensor has provided to Company with advanced written notice or that are otherwise required as
 part of the standard collective bargaining agreements, the applicability of which Licensor notifies Company in advance (collectively,
 the "**Third-Party Restrictions** "), in each case except to the extent arising out of any claim for which Licensor
 is obligated to indemnify Company hereunder.

e. With
 respect to any claims for which either party is the indemnitor under this Agreement, such party will promptly notify the other party
 in writing upon learning of any such claims. The indemnitor will control the defense of any such claim, using attorneys reasonably
 acceptable to the indemnitee, which will in any case retain the right to hire counsel of its own choosing at its own expense. Each
 party will cooperate with the other in such defense, and the indemnitor will not, as part of any settlement, without the indemnitee's
 prior written approval, make an admission of liability on behalf of the indemnitee or agree on the indemnitee's behalf to any
 payment obligation or agree to any equitable remedy. The indemnitor will notify the indemnitee if the indemnitor intends to settle
 any claim on behalf of both parties. If the indemnitee advises the indemnitor that the indemnitee does not wish the indemnitor to
 settle the claim against the indemnitee in a manner which irrevocably releases the indemnitor from such claim, and if the indemnitor
 is able to consummate such settlement for itself without settling the claim against the indemnitee on a basis which is no less favorable
 to the indemnitor than if the claim against both parties were settled concurrently, and if not settling the claim against the indemnitee
 would not materially adversely affect any of the indemnitor's rights in any way, then the indemnitor will not settle such claim
 against the indemnitee.

| **26. Security Interest** | As security for Licensor's obligations to complete and deliver the Picture to Company, to secure all of the rights granted to Company Licensor hereby grants (and will cause any production affiliate to grant) to Company, effective on the Effective Date, a first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) security interest and copyright mortgage in all of Licensor's (which for this purpose will be deemed to include any production affiliate's) right, title, and interest in and to the Picture, to the extent thereof, including the copyrights in the Picture and any elements thereof developed or produced in connection therewith, the underlying rights and all distribution rights in and to the Picture, the physical materials and digital elements of whatsoever nature relating to the Picture, all deposit accounts and accounts receivable, all insurance policies and proceeds thereof, and all rights of Licensor under all contracts and third-party agreements in respect of the Picture and the products and proceeds thereof, to the extent relating to the Picture (collectively, the "**Collateral**"). For the avoidance of doubt, Licensor hereby represents and warrants, and Company acknowledges such representation and warranty by Licensor, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, it was unnecessary to cause any production affiliate to grant Company a security interest in the Collateral, as Licensor holds rights therein sufficient to grant such security interest to Company pursuant to the terms of this Section. Licensor hereby irrevocably authorizes Company to file UCC financing statements consistent herewith with the relevant authority in all applicable jurisdictions to perfect the foregoing security interest in the Collateral. Licensor further agrees to execute or deliver, and to cause any production affiliate to execute or deliver, (subject to good faith negotiations, including a reasonable opportunity to review such documents) such security documentation consistent with this Agreement as Company may reasonably require (including copyright mortgages and similar security agreements) in order to document evidence or to perfect the lien granted herein to Company. If Licensor fails to deliver such security documents within 30 days after Company's request therefor, Licensor irrevocably appoints Company to execute such security documents as Licensor's attorney-in-fact. In the event Company executes a document on behalf of Licensor pursuant to the foregoing authority, Company will furnish copies of such document to Licensor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, no inadvertent failure by Company to provide copies of documentation to Licensor as agreed in this Section will be deemed a breach hereunder, provided that Company takes commercially reasonable steps to cure any such failure (once discovered) on a prospective basis. |
| **27. Insurance** | Licensor will obtain insurance in accordance with the requirements set forth on <u>Exhibit B</u> attached hereto. |

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **28. Confidentiality** | Without limiting the representations, warranties, indemnities, and rights set forth in this Agreement, the non-public information related to the Picture, including the Records, and the business, operations, and programming of the parties hereto are subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, effective as of July 29, 2025, between Company or its affiliate, on the one hand, and Rivulet Entertainment, on the other hand (the "**Confidentiality Agreement**"), the terms of which are incorporated herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Confidentiality Agreement, such confidentiality obligations incorporated herein will survive indefinitely, and Licensor shall be allowed to: (a) make incidental reference to its respective participation on the Picture from and after Company's public announcement of the Picture; (b) discuss confidential information with Licensor's professional representatives provided that such representatives are obligated not to disclose such information to the extent set forth herein; and (c) discuss confidential information to the extent required by law or court order provided that Licensor notifies Company of the same and seeks protection thereof to the extent set forth herein to the extent possible. |

| **29. Taxes** | a. | Licensor will be liable for any applicable income taxes, levies, duties, costs, charges, withholdings, deductions or any charges of equivalent effect imposed on, or in respect of any payments from Company to Licensor under this Agreement. |
|  | b. | Where applicable, Licensor will charge Company sales tax, excise tax, use tax, value added tax, goods and services tax, consumption tax, or equivalent type charges (hereinafter "**Transaction Taxes**") that are applicable to any payments from Company to Licensor under this Agreement and that are required or permitted to be collected from Company by Licensor under applicable law. If Company provides Licensor with a valid exemption certificate, Licensor will not collect the Transaction Taxes covered by such certificate. All charges will be supported by valid tax invoices provided by Licensor to Company consistent with the applicable EU invoicing directive or other comparable authority of the relevant jurisdiction. |
|  | c. | Where any relevant taxation authority imposes any income tax on any payments by Company to Licensor and requires Company to withhold such tax (**"Withholding Tax"**), Company may deduct such Withholding Tax from the payment to Licensor and remit such Withholding Tax to the relevant taxing authority on behalf of Licensor. The determination of the applicability of a Withholding Tax is at Company's sole discretion. In the event a reduced Withholding Tax rate may apply on any payments to Licensor, Licensor will furnish to Company as soon as practicable all documentation necessary to evidence the qualifications for the reduced rate of Withholding Tax. If the necessary documentation is not provided in a timely fashion before payment, the reduced Withholding Tax rate will not apply and any payments to Licensor will be subject to the full rate of Withholding Tax. Upon reasonable request by Licensor, Company will furnish Licensor with tax receipts or other documentation evidencing the payment of such Withholding Tax when available. |
|  | d. | Upon request, Licensor will provide Company with a validly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service form to establish its U.S. or non-U.S. status or any other necessary tax documentation. If Licensor is a non-U.S. resident, Licensor will note, on each invoice issued to Company under this Agreement, the amount of services performed by Licensor within the United States, if any. |
|  | e. | Delivery of the Picture will be taken via telecommunications or load and leave in California. |

| **30. Assignment** | Neither party may assign this Agreement without the other party's written consent, except that, without such consent, (i) Company may assign this Agreement to a Company Affiliate capable of performing Company's obligations hereunder, and (ii) subject to Company's receipt of payment and eligibility documentation acceptable to Company and bearing language acceptable to Company discharging Company of its payment obligations to Licensor upon payment to such assignee, Licensor may assign its right to receive monies hereunder, including to the Lender for security subject to the terms of the Notice of Assignment and Subordination Agreement. This Agreement will be binding on the assigns, heirs, executors, personal representatives, administrators, and successors (whether through merger, operation of law, or otherwise) of the parties. |
| **31. No Injunctive Relief** | In the event of a breach of any of Company's obligations under this Agreement, the damage, if any, caused to Licensor thereby is not irreparable or otherwise sufficient to give rise to a right to injunctive or other equitable relief. Licensor agrees that its rights and remedies in the event of any breach of this Agreement by Company will be limited to the right, if any, to recover money damages in an action at law, and Licensor expressly waives the right to, during the Term, seek injunctive or other equitable relief or to enjoin or restrain the production, distribution, exhibition, advertising, or any other means of exploitation of the Picture or any derivative or ancillary rights licensed hereunder. |

Termination; Survival** | a. | Either party may terminate this Agreement in the event of an uncured material breach by the other party of any of its material obligations under this Agreement, provided that (i) a notice of breach is provided to the other party in writing and (ii) the breach or default is not cured within 25 days following the date that the notice is deemed given, unless the breach is uncurable in which case this Agreement will terminate as of the date of the notice. |
|  | b. | In the event of any termination of this Agreement by Company, Company will be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement, if any, and will no longer be entitled to exercise the exploitation rights licensed hereunder in the Picture. Licensor will, within 15 days of receipt of Company's notice of termination, refund to Company any monies paid by Company to Licensor, including (i) any portion of the License Fee previously paid hereunder, and (ii) interest thereon, which interest will be calculated at the U.S. prime rate (as published by JPMorgan Chase Bank) plus 1% (the "**Refund Amount**"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, ***<u>and on a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basi</u>*<u>s</u>**, if such termination occurs after Company's initial general commercial release of the Picture, the License Fee (but solely for the purposes of this paragraph (b) in connection with calculating the Refund Amount) will be reduced to a proration of the License Fee paid hereunder, calculated as of the effective date of termination and based on the amount of time from Company's initial general commercial release of the Picture and the end of the Term. Company may deduct and retain from payments otherwise due to Licensor under this Agreement any and all amounts due and unpaid to Company from Licensor hereunder. In the event of any termination of this Agreement by Company, but solely effective upon Company's receipt of the Refund Amount, all of Company's right, title and interest in and to the Picture will automatically revert to Licensor. The foregoing will not limit in any way Company's rights to assert any claims or remedies against Licensor and to seek any other damages to which Company may be entitled. |

 the event of any termination of this Agreement, all terms that, by their nature should survive, including Section 23 (Records; Audits),
 any indemnity, representation and/or warranty or insurance obligations with respect to the Picture, and Sections 28 (Confidentiality)
 through 38 (Miscellaneous), will survive termination.

d. For
 clarity, the terms of this Section 32 are agreed solely  ***<u>on a strictly non-precedential, non-citable basi</u>* <u>s</u>** .

| **33. Force Majeure** | In the event that either party is prevented or delayed from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement or from curing any breach of this Agreement as a result of an event of a force majeure (as "force majeure" is customarily understood in the motion picture industry in Los Angeles, California), any outstanding claims or litigation relating to the Picture, or industry-wide labor dispute, then that party's obligation to fulfill such obligation or opportunity to cure such breach will be tolled by the same number of days the force majeure event, claim, or dispute continues, provided, however, that, prior to Company's initial general commercial release of the Picture, Company may terminate this Agreement if a force majeure event, claim, or dispute (or a series of force majeure events, claims or disputes) lasts more than 90 days. |
| **34. Bankruptcy; Insolvency** | The parties intend that all rights granted herein to Company are, for purposes of Section 365(n) of chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "**Bankruptcy Code**") and any similar provisions of applicable laws of other jurisdictions ("**Other Bankruptcy Laws**"), fundamentally in the nature of "intellectual property" as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code and similar provisions of Other Bankruptcy Laws. If a court in any bankruptcy case in which Licensor is a debtor treats any grant or transfer by Licensor of any interest in such rights granted herein as an executory contract under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or similar provisions of Other Bankruptcy Laws, then Company and any other transferee or holder of the interest will be entitled to all the protections and rights of a licensee under Bankruptcy Code Section 365(n) and similar provisions of Other Bankruptcy Laws, including the right to make an election to retain its rights as a licensee under Section 365(n)(l)(B) of the United States Bankruptcy Code and similar provisions of Other Bankruptcy Laws. Company is not, in this Agreement, making an election under Section 365(n). |
| **35. Anti-Corruption, Exports, and Sanctions Regulations** | Licensor and Company will comply with all applicable anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws and regulations. Licensor and Company will not, and will ensure that their respective personnel do not, directly or indirectly, pay, offer, promise to pay, or give anything of value to any person or entity, including an employee or official of a government, government-controlled enterprise or company, or political party, with the reasonable knowledge that it will be used to obtain any improper benefit or to improperly influence any act or decision by such person or entity. Licensor and Company will not, and will ensure that their respective personnel do not, offer or accept bribes or kickbacks in any form. Licensor agrees to comply with all applicable export and sanctions regulations, ordinances, and other laws ("**Regulations**") and acknowledge that the Agreement does not obligate Licensor or Company to perform actions contrary to or in violation of any Regulations. |

| **36. Notices** | All notices required to be given by either party hereunder must be in writing and delivered either by personal delivery, overnight mail, or first-class mail (certified mail, postage pre-paid and return receipt requested) to the applicable addresses set forth below or such other address as the applicable party may designate in writing by notice delivered pursuant hereto.

| **37. Governing Law** | This Agreement will be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. Both parties hereby waive the right to object to that choice of law, personal jurisdiction, or venue. |
|  | Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Agreement, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate ("**Dispute**") will be subject to direct discussions or mediation (with costs to be shared equally between the parties). If direct discussions and mediation do not result in resolution of any Dispute, then such Dispute will be determined by final and binding arbitration in Los Angeles, California, before one arbitrator, who will be a former or retired judge or justice of any California state or federal court with experience in matters involving the entertainment industry. The arbitrability of any Dispute will be governed under the Federal Arbitration Act. Any Dispute or portion thereof, or any claim for a particular form of relief (not otherwise precluded herein): (a) will be governed by California law without regard to conflict of law principles; and (b) may be heard only in a California court (state or federal) of competent jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California solely to the extent that it may not be arbitrated pursuant to applicable state or federal law. The arbitration will be administered by JAMS pursuant to either the JAMS Streamlined (for claims under $250,000) or the JAMS Comprehensive (for claims over $250,000) Arbitration Rules and Procedures, including Rules 16.1 and 16.2 of the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules, except as modified herein. In addition, the parties agree to the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedures, except as modified herein. The JAMS rules may be found at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 800.352.5267. In accordance with the applicable JAMS rules, jurisdictional and arbitrability disputes, including disputes over the formation, existence, validity, interpretation, or scope of this Agreement shall be submitted to and ruled on by the arbitrator. The fees and costs of the arbitration and arbitrator will be determined in accordance with the applicable JAMS rules. The arbitrator may, in the award, allocate all or part of the costs of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrator, and may award reasonable outside attorneys' fees to the prevailing party. The arbitration award will be supported by a written decision prepared by the arbitrator. If either party refuses to perform any or all of its obligations under the final arbitration award (following appeal, if applicable), within 30 days of such award being rendered, then the other party may enforce the final award in any court of competent jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, CA. Unless required by law or to enforce the award, neither party may disclose the existence, content or results/award of any arbitration without the prior written consent of the other party. The arbitrator is not empowered to award incidental, indirect or consequential damages, or punitive or exemplary damages, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages. Except as expressly set forth in Section 31 (No Injunctive Relief) above, Company and Licensor waive any right or remedy in equity, including the right to seek and/or to obtain rescission and/or equitable and/or injunctive relief. |

| **38. Miscellaneous** | This Agreement (and any exhibits, schedules or attachments attached hereto or referenced herein, which are incorporated by reference) cancels and supersedes all prior negotiations and undertakings relating to the subject matter hereof. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, it will be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, to achieve the intent of the parties to the extent possible. In any event, all other provisions of this Agreement will be deemed valid and enforceable to the extent possible. A waiver of any breach of this Agreement will not waive a prior or subsequent breach. All remedies will be cumulative and pursuit of any one will not waive any other. Titles and headings used in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and do not define, modify or restrict the meaning or interpretation of the terms or provisions of this Agreement. Unless expressly stated otherwise, this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with the following rules: (a) each instance of the word "including" will be interpreted as if it were followed by the words "without limitation"; (b) each reference to a Section will mean a Section of this Agreement; (c) all references to "$" will mean United States dollars; (d) the terms "person" and "party" as used in this Agreement will mean any person, firm, corporation, or other entity; and (e) any reference to any law will include all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing or interpreting such law and any reference to any law or regulation will, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time. This Agreement will be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction against the party causing such instrument or any portion thereof to be drafted, or in favor of the party receiving a particular benefit under this Agreement. No rule of strict construction will be applied against any party. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee relationship between the parties hereto (or any of their employees or agents), and neither party is the agent of the other. Each party is an independent contractor to the other and will have no right, authority or power to create any obligation or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf or in the name of the other party. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same document. The parties will execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents and take all such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment of the agreements herein contained. This Agreement is not effective until executed and delivered by both parties hereto, and once so executed and delivered, will be effective as of the Effective Date set forth above. |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Producers Errors and Omissions / Media Liability Insurance.</u> Licensor shall maintain producers errors and omissions / media liability insurance,
