3. BLOCK 21 TRANSACTION:

On May 31, 2022, the Company purchased Block 21 for a stated purchase price of $260 million, as subsequently adjusted to $255 million pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement, which includes the assumption of approximately $136 million of existing mortgage debt. Block 21 is the home of the Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater (“ACL Live”), a 2,750-seat entertainment venue that serves as the filming location for the Austin City Limits television series. The Block 21 complex also includes the 251-room W Austin Hotel, which Marriott manages, the 3TEN at ACL Live club and approximately 53,000 square feet of other Class A commercial space. The Company funded the cash portion of the purchase price with cash on hand and borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, given the different nature of the principal operations acquired (a hotel and an entertainment venue). Block 21 assets are reflected in the Company’s Entertainment segment as of May 31, 2022.

The Company performed a preliminary valuation of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities as of May 31, 2022. The valuations of the various components of property and equipment were determined principally based on the cost approach, which uses assumptions regarding replacement values from established indices. The valuation of intangible assets was based on various methods to evaluate the values of leases in place and advanced bookings previously received for the hotel. The valuation of assumed debt was principally based on a discounted cash flow approach using market interest rates at the time of the transaction. The Company considers each of these estimates as Level 3 fair value measurements. Other acquired assets were valued at carrying value. Based on the aggregation of fair values as compared to consideration transferred, the Company concluded that there was no goodwill or bargain purchase gain related to the business combination. The Company preformed an income approach evaluation of the acquired set which corroborated the conclusion that there was no goodwill related to the acquisition. Such evaluation included

assumptions of future projected cash flows, which was based on the future projected occupancy and average daily rate for the W Hotel Austin, future anticipated cash flows at ACL Live, and market discount rates.

Utilizing the valuation, the Company performed a purchase price allocation for the acquired assets and liabilities of Block 21. As a result, the Company preliminarily allocated the purchase price, adjusted for working capital adjustments as defined in the purchase agreement, in the Company’s balance sheet at May 31, 2022 as follows (amounts in thousands):

Property and equipment	$	237,159
Cash and cash equivalents - unrestricted		8,493
Cash and cash equivalents - restricted		12,450
Trade receivables		1,405
Prepaid expenses and other assets		1,085
Intangible assets		1,723
Total assets acquired		262,315
Debt (Note 9)		(132,531)
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		(14,774)
Other liabilities		(75)
Total liabilities assumed		(147,380)
Net assets acquired	$	114,935

The estimated fair values for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and are subject to change during the one-year measurement period as additional information related to the inputs and assumptions used in determining the fair value of the assets and liabilities becomes available. The Company will continue to review the underlying inputs and assumptions. Therefore, the purchase price allocation is not yet complete as of the date of this filing. Once the allocation is complete, an additional adjustment to the allocation may occur.

The Company incurred $1.2 million and $1.3 million in acquisition-related expenses in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, which are included in entertainment expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.
