TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

 

	1.	 Grantee’s Owned Units. 

1.1      Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV each acknowledge and agree that, as of the Effective Date,
(a) Grantee, or Grantee’s Related Person(s), owns the class and number of non-forfeitable and non-redeemable equity securities set forth on Schedule B
attached hereto (the “Owned Units”), (b) the number of vested and unvested Owned Units is set forth opposite such Owned Units under the headings “Vested Owned Units” and “Unvested Owned Units”, respectively,
(c) the unvested Owned Units shall vest in accordance with the vesting principles set forth on Schedule C attached hereto, (d) the Owned Units shall on and after the Effective Date remain subject to certain repurchase obligations as
set forth on Schedule D attached hereto, and (e) the Distribution Threshold of the Owned Units, to the extent such Owned Units are profits interests, is set forth opposite such Owned Units

  
 1 

 
under the heading “Distribution Threshold” and is subject to the principles set forth opposite such Owned Units under the heading “Catch-Up
Principles”. 
 1.2      The Distribution Threshold of the Owned Units, as applicable, may be adjusted,
prior to or in connection with (a) an “IPO” (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement), or (b) a merger or other transaction following which EOC Parent or an affiliate of EOC Parent has publicly traded securities, by the
Managing Member of EOC Parent, in good faith, to account for a Restructuring (as defined below), a Recapitalization (as defined below), capital contributions, distributions or other similar events; provided, that in the case of adjustments to
the Distribution Threshold, such adjustment shall only be by the amount necessary so that the Owned Units satisfy the requirements for a profits interest as set forth in Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Revenue Procedures 93-27 and 2001-43, or any future IRS guidance or other authority that supplements or supersedes the foregoing IRS Revenue Procedures. 

1.3      Grantee acknowledges and agrees that EOC Parent, Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV may be recapitalized,
reorganized, liquidated, merged into or consolidated or combined with another entity, or otherwise restructured in connection with an IPO (a “Restructuring”) and, in connection with any Restructuring, EOC Parent, Iris I, Iris II and
Iris IV are entitled to, in their good faith discretion, unilaterally cause the Owned Units to be converted, recapitalized, reclassified, redeemed or otherwise exchanged and the terms and conditions of the Owned Units to be adjusted (a
“Recapitalization”), in each case, without Grantee’s consent. Grantee, EOC Parent, Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV each acknowledge and agree that (i) any rights and obligations of Grantee with respect to Grantee’s equity
interests in Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV immediately prior to a Restructuring and/or Recapitalization shall apply equally to the equity interests received by Grantee in connection with a Restructuring and/or Recapitalization and (ii) all
references to Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV (and any governing bodies and organizational documents thereof) shall be deemed to refer to the applicable successors thereto (and any governing bodies and organizational documents thereof) following a
Restructuring and/or Recapitalization and all references to equity interests in Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV herein shall be deemed to refer to the corresponding equity interests held by Grantee immediately following a Restructuring and/or
Recapitalization, which corresponding equity interests shall have vesting and repurchase terms that are in no event less favorable than those set forth on Schedules C and D attached hereto. Without limiting the foregoing, Grantee, EOC
Parent, EGH, Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV agree that the Owned Units that are “catch-up” profits interests that, based on the total equity value of EOC Parent implied by the offering price of a share
of common stock of EGH to the public in an IPO, will receive the same economics that they would have received if such Owned Units had a Distribution Threshold equal to the applicable “catch-up”
Distribution Threshold of such Owned Units set forth on Schedule B, may be converted, recapitalized, reclassified, redeemed or otherwise exchanged into direct or indirect interests in Class A Common Units (as defined in the EOC Parent
LLC Agreement) of EOC Parent in connection with a Restructuring and/or Recapitalization. 

  
 2 

 1.4      Grantee acknowledges and agrees that, on and after
the Effective Date, Grantee will be subject to the Restrictive Covenants (as defined in and set forth on Schedule E attached hereto). 

1.5      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Operating Agreements, including, without
limitation, Section 7.01 of each of the Operating Agreements, but subject to compliance with Sections 7.01(b)(ii), 7.01(b)(iii) and 7.01(c) of each of the Operating Agreements, the Owned Units shall be permitted at any time to be Transferred
(as defined in each respective Operating Agreement) to Grantee’s spouse or lineal descendants by will (including through the designation of such spouse or lineal descendant as a beneficiary of Grantee) or by applicable laws of descent and
distribution (each such Transfer shall be deemed a “Permitted Transfer”, and each such Transferee shall be deemed a “Permitted Transferee”, under each respective Operating Agreement). Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV hereby agree and
acknowledge that this Agreement has been approved by the applicable Board of Directors (as defined in each respective Operating Agreement) and accordingly, the foregoing constitutes the prior written consent of each such applicable Board of
Directors for purposes of Section 7.01 of each of the Operating Agreements. 
  

	2.	 Miscellaneous. 

2.1      Operating Agreements. By entering into this Agreement, Grantee agrees and acknowledges that
(a) Grantee has received and read a copy of the applicable Operating Agreement(s), (b) the Owned Units are subject to the applicable Operating Agreement(s) (including indirectly to the EOC Parent LLC Agreement), the terms of which Operating
Agreement(s) are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made part of this Agreement, and (c) Grantee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the applicable Operating Agreement(s). In the event of a conflict between any term or
provision contained in this Agreement (other than Section 2.4 hereof) and a term or provision of an applicable Operating Agreement (other than the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) and/or the EOC Parent LLC Agreement, the applicable terms and
provisions of the EOC Parent LLC Agreement shall govern and prevail, and then in decreasing order of seniority, the applicable Operating Agreement and lastly, this Agreement. Without limiting the provisions of this Section 2.1, Grantee

binding and conclusive on Grantee (absent manifest error), and (ii) Grantee shall be prohibited from Transferring the Owned Units to any other Person except as expressly permitted by the applicable Operating Agreement(s) or as provided for
herein. Notwithstanding Grantee’s status as a member of Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV, Grantee shall have no right whatsoever to (A) examine the books and records of Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV or Employer, or (B) obtain any information
about the identities of the other members of Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV or members of Employer (or of the size or nature of such other members’ or members’ interests in Iris I, Iris II and Iris IV or Employer, respectively). This
Agreement shall not restrict in any way the adoption of any amendment to the applicable Operating Agreement(s) in accordance with the terms of such applicable Operating Agreement(s).

 2.5      Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the organizational documents of EOC Parent,
Iris I, Iris II, Iris IV and EGH (in each case, as may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with their terms) and any other agreements which may be entered into by Grantee and Employer on and after the Effective Date,
constitutes the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior negotiations, discussions and preliminary agreements (including, without limitation, the Prior Agreements). This Agreement
may not be amended except in writing executed by the parties hereto. EOC Parent, Iris I, Iris II, Iris IV and Grantee acknowledge and agree that, except as set forth herein, as of the Effective Date, the Prior Agreements shall be superseded in their
entirety by this Agreement; provided, that the parties acknowledge and agree that any terms of the Prior Agreements that are intended to be incorporated herein shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the intention of the Prior
Agreements (except as explicitly set forth herein). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent an IPO does not occur on or prior to December 31, 2021, this Agreement shall be void ab initio and the Prior Agreements
shall remain in full force and effect. 
 2.6      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any

 SCHEDULE C 

Vesting Principles 
  

	1.	 Iris IV Units: 

A.        For purposes of this subsection (1) to Schedule C: 

 

	 	(i)	 “Change of Control” shall mean, prior to an IPO, “Sale Transaction” (as defined in
the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) and, as of and following an IPO, “Change of Control” (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement). 

  

	 	(ii)	 “Employer Non-Renewal” means any termination of
Grantee’s employment or service relationship with Employer following expiration of Grantee’s prior employment, services, guaranteed compensation, or other similar agreement with Employer if (A) a new agreement between Employer and
Grantee has not been executed and (B) Employer did not offer Grantee a new employment, services, guaranteed compensation, or other similar agreement with Employer pursuant to a bona fide offer prior to such termination. For the avoidance of
doubt, in no event shall an Employer Non-Renewal be deemed to be a termination with or without Cause or with or without Good Reason. 

 

	 	(iii)	 “Performance Vesting Equity Value” means, at any applicable time of determination, the total
equity value of EOC Parent and its subsidiaries as reasonably determined by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Board of Directors of EGH (or any other body to
which it defeases or delegates authority) (the “Governing Body”) in good faith. 

  

	 	(iv)	 “Vested Iris IV Units” means, as of any date, the Iris IV Units that have become vested
pursuant to this subsection (1) to Schedule C on or prior to such date. 

B.        The Iris IV Performance Based Units shall vest in such amounts and at such times, so that,
(i) as of the Effective Date, 46.6% of the Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be vested, and (ii) as of the applicable time of determination, 70% of the Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be vested upon the achievement by EOC Parent
of a Performance Vesting Equity Value of $7,000,000,000, 90% of the Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be vested upon the achievement by EOC Parent of a Performance Vesting Equity Value of $8,000,000,000, and all of the Iris IV

 
Performance Based Units shall be vested upon the achievement by EOC Parent of a Performance Vesting Equity Value of $9,000,000,000. Any of the Iris IV Performance Based Units that do not vest
upon a Change of Control based on the Performance Vesting Equity Value implied thereby in accordance with the foregoing shall remain outstanding and shall continue to be subject to vesting in accordance with the terms of this subsection (1)(B) to
Schedule C, or, alternatively, solely to the extent agreed to by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body, may be exchanged into Units in EOC
Parent (which exchange shall be caused by Iris IV pursuant to the applicable Operating Agreement) and thereafter rolled over into equity interests of the buyer with an equivalent economic value as of the consummation of such Change of Control and
vesting conditions that are no less favorable to Grantee than the remaining vesting conditions with respect to the unvested Iris IV Performance Based Units as of the consummation of such Change of Control. Solely to the extent agreed to by the Chief
Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body, any or all of the Iris IV Performance Based Units that do not vest upon the consummation of an IPO based on the
Performance Vesting Equity Value implied thereby in accordance with the foregoing shall remain outstanding and shall continue to be subject to vesting in accordance with the terms of this subsection (1)(B) to Schedule C. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, each of the threshold dollar amounts set forth herein with respect to the Performance Vesting Equity Value may be adjusted by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors)
or, following an IPO, the Governing Body, in good faith, to account for Capital Contributions (as defined in the WME Iris Management IV LLC Agreement), distributions of capital proceeds or available cash flow, restructurings or other
recapitalizations of EOC Parent, EGH or their capital structures, or other similar events (including, without limitation, any transaction pursuant to which EOC Parent acquires equity interests in Zuffa Parent, LLC or any of its Affiliates). 

C.        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the consummation
of a Change of Control, any or all of the unvested Iris IV Units may be cancelled as determined by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body. 

D.        Upon the termination of Grantee’s employment or services with Employer for any reason:
(i) subject to the provisions of this Schedule C and of the applicable Operating Agreement, Grantee (or Grantee’s estate, in the case of a termination upon the death of Grantee) shall be entitled to retain Grantee’s Vested Iris
IV Units following such termination; and (ii) all of the Iris IV Units that are not Vested Iris IV Units shall be forfeited without any consideration paid to Grantee. Upon the termination of Grantee’s employment or services with Employer
by Employer without Cause, by 

 
Grantee with Good Reason, or due to an Employer Non-Renewal, a number of the unvested Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be eligible to vest based on
the Performance Vesting Equity Value as of the date of such termination of employment. 

 SCHEDULE D 

Repurchase Obligations 
 Each of Iris I,
Iris II and Iris IV may, at any time upon delivery of written notice to Grantee following a termination of Grantee’s employment or services with Employer for any reason, exercise a Repurchase Option (as defined in the applicable Operating
Agreement) with respect to any or all of the vested Iris I Units, Iris II Units or Iris IV Units, as applicable, in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the applicable Operating Agreement. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Operating Agreements, if Grantee’s employment with Employer is terminated by Employer with Cause, then
the consideration payable by Iris I or Iris II, respectively, to Grantee pursuant to an exercise by Iris I or Iris II, respectively, of the applicable Repurchase Option shall (i) prior to an IPO, be 75% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in
the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) of the corresponding Profits Units of EOC Parent and (ii) as of and following an IPO, 75% of the fair market value of the Units in EOC Parent corresponding to the Iris I Units or Iris II Units, as applicable (as
determined by the Governing Body). If Grantee’s employment with Employer is terminated by Employer with Cause, then the consideration payable by Iris IV, to Grantee pursuant to an exercise by Iris IV of the applicable Repurchase Option shall
(i) prior to an IPO, be 50% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) of the corresponding Profits Units of EOC Parent and (ii) as of and following an IPO, 50% of the fair market value of the Units in EOC Parent
corresponding to the Iris IV Units, as applicable (as determined in good faith by the Governing Body). For clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Prior Agreements, if Grantee’s employment with Employer is terminated
for any reason other than by Employer with Cause, then the consideration payable by Iris I, Iris II or Iris IV, respectively, to Grantee pursuant to an exercise by Iris I, Iris II or Iris IV, respectively, of the applicable Repurchase Option shall
be (i) prior to an IPO, with respect to vested Iris I Units, Iris II Units and Iris IV Units, 100% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) of the corresponding Profits Units of EOC Parent and (ii) as of and
following an IPO, the fair market value of the Units in EOC Parent corresponding to the vested Iris I Units, Iris II Units or Iris IV Units, as applicable (as determined in good faith by the Governing Body).     

In connection with any Repurchase Option and as a condition to Grantee’s receipt of consideration for the vested Iris I Units, Iris II Units or Iris IV
Units to be repurchased pursuant thereto, Grantee or Grantee’s estate, as applicable, shall take or cause to be taken all actions requested by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or,
following an IPO, the Governing Body, in order to expeditiously consummate such repurchase and any related transactions, including executing, acknowledging and delivering assignments, a general release of EOC Parent and its Affiliates and related
person(s) (in form and substance satisfactory to EOC Parent) and other documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested and otherwise cooperating with the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective
successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body, and making customary representations and warranties, including as to due approval and ownership free and clear of any liens and transfer of the applicable vested Iris I Units, Iris II Units or
Iris IV Units. 

 SCHEDULE E 

Restrictive Covenants 
  

	 	1.	 Non-Solicitation;
Non-Hire. During the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the second anniversary of the date on which Grantee’s employment with Employer terminates for any reason, Grantee shall not
(and shall cause each of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates not to) directly, or indirectly through another Person, (a) (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee, consultant or independent contractor of Employer to leave the employ or
services of Employer or (ii) hire any employee, consultant or independent contractor of Employer; provided, that the restrictions on solicitation in clause (a)(i) of this Section 1 to Schedule E shall not preclude
solicitations through the use of general advertising (such as web postings or advertisements in publications) or search firms, employment agencies or similar entities not specifically directed at Employer, or (b) directly or indirectly solicit
or represent or otherwise provide services to (i) any client of any member of Employer or (ii) any prospective client of any member of Employer that was actively solicited as such by or on behalf of any member of Employer within the twelve
(12) month period prior to the date on which Grantee ceases to be employed with Employer; provided, that, the restrictions on solicitation in clause (b) of this Section 1 to Schedule E shall not preclude solicitations of
any clients or prospective clients of Employer for any business that is not competitive with the business being performed for, or solicited from, such clients or prospective clients by Employer. 

 

	 	2.	 Non-Competition. Grantee acknowledges and agrees that
(a) at all times while Grantee is employed with Employer, Grantee shall pursue all appropriate business opportunities of Employer exclusively through Employer and (b) Employer would be irreparably damaged if Grantee (or, if applicable, any
of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates) were to provide services to any Person (including Grantee) engaged in a Restricted Business (as defined below) and that such competition by Grantee (or, if applicable, any of Grantee’s controlled
Affiliates) would result in a significant loss of goodwill by Employer. Therefore, Grantee agrees that during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the second anniversary of the date on which Grantee’s employment with
Employer terminates for any reason, Grantee shall not (and, as applicable, shall cause each of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates not to) directly or indirectly through another Person own any interest in, manage, control, participate in (whether
as an officer, director, manager, employee, partner, equity holder, member, agent, advisor, individual independent contractor, consultant, representative or otherwise), consult with, represent, render services for, or in any other manner engage in
the Restricted Business in any geographic area where EOC Parent, EGH and their respective controlled affiliates conducts it; provided, that nothing herein shall prohibit Grantee and any of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates, as applicable,
from being a passive owner of not more than two percent (2%) of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation or entity which is publicly traded so long as Grantee (or any of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates, if applicable) does not have
any active participation in the management or other 

	 	
business of such corporation or entity. As used herein, the term “Restricted Business” means collectively (x) the following eight (8) entities (and any of their
respective successors and Affiliates which engage in similar businesses): Creative Artists Agency, United Talent Agency, International Creative Management, Learfield, the Interpublic Group of Companies (including Octagon), Wasserman Media Group,
InFront and Lagardere Group; provided, that Employer and Grantee shall negotiate in good faith to consider expanding the foregoing list annually, as mutually agreed to by Employer and Grantee, to cover additional entities of a similar size,
scope, and business focus, and (y) any talent agency. 

  

	 	3.	 Restrictive Covenants Generally. If, at the time of enforcement of the covenants set forth in Sections 1
and 2 of this Schedule E (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”), a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that
the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum
period, scope and area permitted by applicable law. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee has had the opportunity to be represented by counsel in the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and hereby acknowledges that the Restrictive Covenants are
reasonable in terms of duration, scope and area restrictions and are necessary to protect the goodwill of Employer.EX-10.45

TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

 

	1.	 Grantee’s Owned Units. 

1.1    Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V each acknowledge and agree that, as of the Effective Date, (a) Grantee, or
Grantee’s Related Person(s), owns the class and number of equity securities set forth on Schedule B attached hereto (the “Owned Units”), (b) the number of vested and unvested Owned Units is set forth opposite such Owned
Units under the headings “Vested Owned Units” and “Unvested Owned Units”, respectively, (c) the unvested Owned Units shall vest in accordance with the vesting principles set forth on Schedule C attached hereto,
(d) the Owned Units shall on and after the Effective Date remain subject to certain repurchase obligations as set forth on Schedule D attached hereto, and (e) the Distribution Threshold of the Owned Units, to the extent such Owned
Units are 

 
profits interests, is set forth opposite such Owned Units under the heading “Distribution Threshold” and is subject to the principles set forth opposite such Owned Units under the
heading “Catch-Up Principles”. 
 1.2    The Distribution Threshold of
the Owned Units, as applicable, may be adjusted, prior to or in connection with (a) an “IPO” (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement), or (b) a merger or other transaction following which EOC Parent or an affiliate of EOC
Parent has publicly traded securities, by the EOC Managing Member, in good faith, to account for a Restructuring (as defined below), a Recapitalization (as defined below), capital contributions, distributions or other similar events;
provided, that in the case of adjustments to the Distribution Threshold, such adjustment shall only be by the amount necessary so that the Owned Units satisfy the requirements for a profits interest as set forth in Internal Revenue Service
(“IRS”) Revenue Procedures 93-27 and 2001-43, or any future IRS guidance or other authority that supplements or supersedes the foregoing IRS Revenue
Procedures. 
 1.3    Grantee acknowledges and agrees that (a) EOC Parent, Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V may be
recapitalized, reorganized, liquidated, merged into or consolidated or combined with another entity, or otherwise restructured in connection with an IPO (a “Restructuring”) and, in connection with any Restructuring, EOC Parent, Iris
I, Iris IV and Iris V are entitled to, in their good faith discretion, unilaterally cause the Owned Units to be converted, recapitalized, reclassified, redeemed or otherwise exchanged and the terms and conditions of the Owned Units to be adjusted (a
“Recapitalization”), in each case, without Grantee’s consent, and (b) (i) any rights and obligations of Grantee with respect to Grantee’s equity interests in Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V immediately prior to a
Restructuring and/or Recapitalization shall apply equally to the equity interests received by Grantee in connection with a Restructuring and/or Recapitalization and (ii) all references to Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V (and any governing bodies and
organizational documents thereof) shall be deemed to refer to the applicable successors thereto (and any governing bodies and organizational documents thereof) following a Restructuring and/or Recapitalization and all references to equity interests
in Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V herein shall be deemed to refer to the corresponding equity interests held by Grantee immediately following a Restructuring and/or Recapitalization. Without limiting the foregoing, Grantee, EOC Parent, EGH, Iris I, Iris
IV and Iris V agree that the Owned Units that are “catch-up” profits interests that, based on the total equity value of EOC Parent implied by the offering price of a share of common stock of EGH to
the public in an IPO, will receive the same economics that they would have received if such Owned Units had a Distribution Threshold equal to the applicable “catch-up” Distribution Threshold of such
Owned Units set forth on Schedule B, may be converted, recapitalized, reclassified, redeemed or otherwise exchanged into direct or indirect interests in Class A Common Units (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) of EOC Parent in
connection with a Restructuring and/or Recapitalization. 
 1.4    Grantee acknowledges and agrees that, on and after
the Effective Date, the Grantee will be subject to the Restrictive Covenants (as defined in and set forth on Schedule E attached hereto).

	2.	 Miscellaneous.

hereby incorporated herein by reference and made part of this Agreement, and (c) Grantee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the applicable Operating Agreement(s). In the event of a conflict between any term or provision
contained in this Agreement (other than Section 2.4 hereof) and a term or provision of an applicable Operating Agreement (other than the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) and/or the EOC Parent LLC Agreement, the applicable terms and provisions of the
EOC Parent LLC Agreement shall govern and prevail, and then in decreasing order of seniority, the applicable Operating Agreement and lastly, this Agreement. Without limiting the provisions of this Section 2.1, Grantee acknowledges that the
Owned Units are subject to the provisions of the Operating Agreement(s) under which (i) the applicable governing body has full discretion to interpret and administer this Agreement and its judgments are final, binding and conclusive on Grantee
(absent manifest error), and (ii) Grantee shall be prohibited from Transferring his or her Owned Units to any other Person except as expressly permitted by the applicable Operating Agreement(s) or as provided herein. Notwithstanding
Grantee’s status as a member of Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V, Grantee shall have no right whatsoever to (A) examine the books and records of Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V or Employer or (B) obtain any information about the identities of
the other members of Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V or members of Employer (or of the size or nature of such other members’ or members’ interests in Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V or Employer, respectively). This Agreement shall not restricted in
any way the adoption of any amendment to any applicable Operating Agreement(s) in accordance with the terms of such applicable Operating Agreement(s). 

2.2    Notices. Notices to EOC Parent, Iris I, Iris IV or Iris V (or any successor entities thereto) hereunder
shall be addressed to such party c/o EOC Parent at the principal executive office of EOC Parent, unless otherwise designated in writing by EOC Parent. Notices to Grantee hereunder shall be addressed to Grantee at the address appearing in the

 3 

 2.5    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the
Partner Agreement, the organizational documents of EOC Parent, Iris IV, Iris V and EGH (in each case, as may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time) and any other agreements which may be entered into by Grantee and Employer on and
after the Effective Date, constitutes the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior negotiations, discussions and preliminary agreements (including, without limitation, the Prior
Agreements); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Partner Letter Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2018, among EOC, Iris I, Iris IV, Iris V and Grantee (the “Put Letter”)
terminated on January 1, 2021 and, since such date has been void and of no force and effect. This Agreement may not be amended except in writing executed by the parties hereto. EOC Parent, Iris I, Iris IV, Iris V and Grantee acknowledge and
agree that, except as set forth herein, as of the Effective Date, the Prior Agreements shall be superseded in their entirety by this Agreement and the Prior Agreements shall hereby terminate and no longer have any force or effect; provided,
that the parties acknowledge and agree that any terms of the Prior Agreements that are intended to be incorporated herein shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the intention of the Prior Agreements (except as explicitly set forth herein).
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent an IPO does not occur on or prior to December 31, 2021, this Agreement shall be void ab initio and the Prior Agreements shall remain in full force and effect. 

2.6    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by facsimile, and each such
counterpart hereof shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement. 

2.7    Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the
negotiation and execution of this Agreement and have participated jointly in the drafting of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other
document will be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of the party drafting or structuring such agreement or document.

obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with a Restructuring); provided, that Grantee shall not be entitled to assign any of Grantee’s rights or obligations without the consent of each of EOC
Parent, Iris I, Iris IV and Iris V (or any successor entities thereto). The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. No provision of this

 SCHEDULE C 

Vesting Principles 
  

	1.	 Iris IV Units: 

 

	 	A.	 For purposes of this subsection (1) to Schedule C: 

 

	 	(i)	 “Change of Control” shall mean, prior to an IPO, “Sale Transaction” (as defined in
the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) and, as of and following an IPO, “Change of Control” as (defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement). 

  

	 	(ii)	 “Employer Non-Renewal” means any termination of
Grantee’s employment or service relationship with Employer following expiration of Grantee’s prior employment, services, guaranteed compensation, or other similar agreement with Employer if (A) a new agreement between Employer and
Grantee has not been executed and (B) Employer did not offer Grantee a new employment, services, guaranteed compensation, or other similar agreement with Employer pursuant to a bona fide offer prior to such termination. For the avoidance of
doubt, in no event shall an Employer Non-Renewal be deemed to be a termination with or without Cause or with or without Good Reason. 

 

	 	(iii)	 “Performance Vesting Equity Value” means, at any applicable time of determination, the total
equity value of EOC Parent and its subsidiaries as reasonably determined by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Board of Directors of EGH (or any other body to
which it defeases or delegates authority) (the “Governing Body”) in good faith. 

  

	 	(iv)	 “Vested Iris IV Units” means, as of any date, the Iris IV Units that have become vested
pursuant to this subsection (1) to Schedule C on or prior to such date. 

  

	 	B.	 The Iris IV Performance Based Units shall vest in such amounts and at such times, so that, (i) as of the
Effective Date, 46.6% of the Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be vested, and (ii) as of the applicable time of determination, 70% of the Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be vested upon the achievement by EOC Parent of a Performance
Vesting Equity Value of $7,000,000,000, 90% of the Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be vested upon the achievement by EOC Parent of a Performance Vesting Equity Value of $8,000,000,000, and all of the Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be
vested upon the achievement by EOC Parent of a Performance Vesting Equity Value of $9,000,000,000. Any of the Iris IV 

	 	
Performance Based Units that do not vest upon a Change of Control based on the Performance Vesting Equity Value implied thereby in accordance with the foregoing shall remain outstanding and shall
continue to be subject to vesting in accordance with the terms of this subsection (1)(B) to Schedule C, or, alternatively, solely to the extent agreed to by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective
successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body, may be exchanged into Units in EOC Parent (which exchange shall be caused by Iris IV pursuant to the applicable Operating Agreement) and thereafter rolled over into equity interests of the buyer
with an equivalent economic value as of the consummation of such Change of Control and vesting conditions that are no less favorable to Grantee than the remaining vesting conditions with respect to the unvested Iris IV Performance Based Units as of
the consummation of such Change of Control. Solely to the extent agreed to by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body, any or all of the Iris IV
Performance Based Units that do not vest upon the consummation of an IPO based on the Performance Vesting Equity Value implied thereby in accordance with the foregoing shall remain outstanding and shall continue to be subject to vesting in
accordance with the terms of this subsection (1)(B) to Schedule C. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, each of the threshold dollar amounts set forth herein with respect to the Performance Vesting Equity Value may be adjusted by the
Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body, in good faith, to account for Capital Contributions (as defined in the WME Iris Management IV LLC Agreement),
distributions of capital proceeds or available cash flow, restructurings or other recapitalizations of EOC Parent, EGH or their capital structures, or other similar events (including, without limitation, any transaction pursuant to which EOC Parent
acquires equity interests in Zuffa Parent, LLC or any of its Affiliates).  

  

	 	C.	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the consummation of a Change of
Control, any or all of the unvested Iris IV Units may be cancelled as determined by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of EOC Parent (or their respective successors) or, following an IPO, the Governing Body. 

 

	 	D.	 Upon the termination of Grantee’s employment or services with Employer for any reason: (a) subject to
the provisions of this Schedule C and of the applicable Operating Agreement, Grantee (or Grantee’s estate, in the case of a termination upon the death of Grantee) shall be entitled to retain Grantee’s Vested Iris IV Units following
such termination; and (b) all of the Iris IV Units that are not Vested Iris IV Units shall be forfeited without any consideration paid to Grantee. Upon the termination of Grantee’s employment or services with Employer by Employer without
Cause, by 

	 	
Grantee with Good Reason, or due to an Employer Non-Renewal, a number of the unvested Iris IV Performance Based Units shall be eligible to vest based on
the Performance Vesting Equity Value as of the date of such termination of employment. 

 SCHEDULE D 

Repurchase Obligations 
 Each of Iris I,
Iris IV and Iris V may, at any time upon delivery of written notice to Grantee following a termination of Grantee’s employment or services with Employer for any reason, exercise a Repurchase Option (as defined in the applicable Operating
Agreement) with respect to any or all of the vested Iris I Units, Iris IV Units or Iris V Units, as applicable, in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the applicable Operating Agreement. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Operating Agreements, if Grantee’s employment with Employer is terminated by Employer with Cause, then
the consideration payable by Iris I or Iris IV, respectively, to Grantee pursuant to an exercise by Iris I or Iris IV, respectively, of the applicable Repurchase Option shall (i) prior to an IPO, be 50% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in
the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) of the corresponding Profits Units of EOC Parent and (ii) as of and following an IPO, 50% of the fair market value of the Units in EOC Parent corresponding to the Iris I Units or Iris IV Units, as applicable (as
determined by the Governing Body). If (X) prior to the consummation of an IPO, Grantee’s employment with Employer is terminated by Employer with Cause or by Grantee without Good Reason, or (Y) on or following the consummation of an
IPO, Grantee’s employment with Employer is terminated by Employer with Cause, then the consideration payable by Iris V, to Grantee pursuant to an exercise by Iris V, of the applicable Repurchase Option shall (i) prior to an IPO, be 50% of
the Fair Market Value (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) of the corresponding Profits Units of EOC Parent and (ii) as of and following an IPO, 50% of the fair market value of the Units in EOC Parent corresponding to the Iris V Units,
as applicable (as determined by the Governing Body). 
 For clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Prior Agreements, if
(a) prior to the consummation of an IPO, Grantee’s employment with Employer is terminated for any reason other than as described above, or (b) on or following the consummation of an IPO, Grantee’s employment or services with
Employer is terminated for any reason other than by the Employer with Cause, then the consideration payable by Iris I, Iris IV or Iris V, respectively, to Grantee pursuant to an exercise by Iris I, Iris IV or Iris V, respectively, of the applicable
Repurchase Option shall be (A) prior to an IPO, with respect to vested Iris I Units, Iris IV Units and Iris V Units, the Fair Market Value (as defined in the EOC Parent LLC Agreement) of the corresponding Profits Units of EOC Parent and

 SCHEDULE E 

Restrictive Covenants 
  

	1.	 Non-Solicitation;
Non-Hire. During the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the second anniversary of the date on which Grantee’s employment with Employer terminates for any reason, Grantee shall not
(and shall cause each of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates not to) directly, or indirectly through another Person, (a)(i) induce or attempt to induce any employee, consultant or independent contractor of Employer to leave the employ or services
of Employer or (ii) hire any employee, consultant or independent contractor of Employer; provided, that the restrictions on solicitation in clause (a)(i) of this Section 1 to Schedule E shall not preclude solicitations
through the use of general advertising (such as web postings or advertisements in publications) or search firms, employment agencies or similar entities not specifically directed at Employer, or (b) directly or indirectly solicit or represent
or otherwise provide services to (i) any client of any member of Employer or (ii) any prospective client of any member of Employer that was actively solicited as such by or on behalf of any member of Employer within the twelve
(12) month period prior to the date on which Grantee ceases to be employed with Employer. Grantee shall inform future employers of the obligations of Grantee under this Schedule E but shall not be in violation of this Schedule E
if said employer without Grantee’s involvement solicits or hires any employee, consultant or independent contractor of Employer. 

  

	2.	 Non-Competition. Grantee acknowledges and agrees that
(a) at all times while Grantee is employed with Employer, Grantee shall pursue all appropriate business opportunities of Employer exclusively through Employer and (b) Employer would be irreparably damaged if Grantee (or, if applicable, any
of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates) were to provide services to any Person (including Grantee) engaged in a Restricted Business (as defined below) and that such competition by Grantee (or, if applicable, any of Grantee’s controlled
Affiliates) would result in a significant loss of goodwill by Employer. Therefore, Grantee agrees that during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the second (2nd) anniversary of the date on which Grantee’s employment with
Employer terminates if Grantee’s employment is terminated by Employer with Cause or by Grantee without Good Reason, or otherwise ending on the date on which Grantee’s employment with Employer terminates for any other reason (such period,
the “Restricted Period”), to the extent permitted by the New York Canon of Ethics, Grantee shall not (and, as applicable, shall cause each of Grantee’s controlled Affiliates not to) directly or indirectly through another Person
own any interest in, manage, control, participate in (whether as an officer, director, manager, employee, partner, equity holder, member, agent, advisor, individual independent contractor, consultant, representative or otherwise), consult with,
represent, render services for, or in any other manner engage in the Restricted Business in any geographic area where the Restricted Business of Employer conducts it; provided, that in the event that Grantee’s employment with Employer
terminates upon a Grantee Non-Renewal (as 

	 	
defined below), Employer shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to elect to continue to pay to Grantee, in monthly installments, the Base Salary (as defined in the Employment Agreement)
payable by Employer as if Grantee had remained employed for a period of up to 6 months following such termination, and if Employer shall so elect, then, notwithstanding anything in this Section 2 to Schedule E to the contrary, the
Restricted Period shall continue for such period (not to exceed 6 months following the date of such termination) in respect of which such payments are made; provided, further, that nothing herein shall prohibit Grantee and any of
Grantee’s controlled Affiliates, as applicable, from (x) being a passive owner of not more than two percent (2%) of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation or entity which is publicly traded so long as Grantee (or any of
Grantee’s controlled Affiliates, if applicable) does not have any active participation in the management or other business of such corporation or entity, (y) being employed by or otherwise providing services to any corporation or entity, a
division or subsidiary of which is engaged in Restricted Businesses or (z) practicing law at a law firm. As used herein, the term “Restricted Business” means collectively (i) any business that, in the preceding twelve
(12) months derived more than 25% of its revenue from businesses involved in (1) the representation of Persons involved in television, film, music, literature, sports, internet, advertising, public speaking and all other mediums, including
actors, writers, producers, directors, artists, musicians, athletes, models, sports leagues, mixed martial arts or boxing leagues and promotions and public figures, including any talent and/or entertainment agency business, (2) league
development, sponsorship, hospitality, licensing, sports training and consulting, (3) sports programming and event management, (4) marketing and merchandising and (5) corporate advisory services or (ii) any business or businesses
of a type not described in clause (i) in which Grantee was actively engaged on behalf of Employer during the preceding twelve (12) month period prior to the date on which Grantee ceases to be employed with Employer (and any logical
extensions thereof) so long as such business in the preceding twelve (12) months derived more than 25% of its revenue from businesses. 

  

	3.	 Restrictive Covenants Generally. If, at the time of enforcement of the covenants set forth in Sections 1
and 2 of this Schedule E (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”), a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that
the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum
period, scope and area permitted by applicable law. Grantee hereby acknowledges that the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable in terms of duration, scope and area restrictions and are necessary to protect the goodwill of Employer.

  

	4.	 Grantee Non-Renewal. “Grantee Non-Renewal” means (a) any failure of Grantee to execute a new employment agreement offered by Employer following (or to become effective upon) expiration of Grantee’s then-existing (or prior)
employment agreement or (b) any termination of Grantee’s employment relationship with 

	 	
Employer following expiration of Grantee’s prior employment agreement if a new employment agreement between Employer and Grantee has not been executed; provided, that, in each case of
clauses (a) and (b), Employer shall have offered to continue an employment relationship with Grantee for a period of at least one (1) additional year on materially similar (or more favorable) cash economic terms as those set forth in
Grantee’s prior or then-existing (as applicable) employment agreement and with no additional equity award(s).
