Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The securities reported herein were acquired by Fifteenth LLC for aggregate consideration of approximately $44,188,137. These purchases were funded by cash on hand.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

On April 2, 2024, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Issuer, Wildcat EGH Holdco, L.P., an affiliate of Silver Lake (“Holdco Parent”), Wildcat OpCo Holdco, L.P., an affiliate of Silver Lake (“OpCo Parent” and, together with Holdco Parent, the “Parent Entities” and each, a “Parent Entity”), Endeavor Operating Company, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of the Issuer (“OpCo”) and various other parties named therein, including various newly formed merger subsidiaries used to effect the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, after a series of steps, a merger subsidiary of Holdco Parent will merge with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer surviving the merger, collectively owned, directly or indirectly, by Holdco Parent and certain other holders (the “Company Merger”, and collectively with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”).

As a result of the Company Merger, each share of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Company Merger (the “Company Merger Effective Time” (subject to certain exceptions, including (i) (a) shares of Common Stock owned by the Issuer or its subsidiaries, (b) shares of Common Stock owned by the Parent Entities or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, or, any affiliate of the Parent Entities designated in writing by the Parent Entities to the Issuer at least two business days prior to the Company Merger Effective Time and (c) shares of Issuer Class X common stock, par value $0.00001 per share  and Class Y common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (such shares in this clause (c), collectively with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, (ii) the shares that have been agreed to rollover in the transaction in accordance with the Merger Agreement and (iii) shares of Common Stock owned by stockholders of the Issuer who have validly demanded and not withdrawn appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware will, at the Company Merger Effective Time, automatically be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $27.50 in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes.

If the Transactions are consummated, the Issuer intends to delist the Class A Common Stock from the New York Stock Exchange and deregister such shares under the Exchange Act.

Simultaneously with the entering into of the Merger Agreement, on April 2, 2024, Thirty Fifth Investment Company L.L.C. (“Thirty Fifth LLC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Mamoura, entered into a preferred equity commitment letter (the “Equity Commitment Letter”) with Holdco Parent and other parties thereto.  Pursuant to the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter, Thirty Fifth LLC has committed to contribute to Holdco Parent at the closing of the Company Merger $200,000,000 in exchange for certain preferred equity interests of the Issuer (as such amount may be increased as described below, the “Equity Commitment”), subject to the completion of the Company Merger and the satisfaction of customary conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter. Prior to the closing of the Company Merger, Thirty Fifth LLC’s Equity Commitment may be increased at its option upon the satisfaction of certain conditions.  In addition, subject to satisfying certain conditions, Thirty Fifth LLC may sell or otherwise assign all or any portion of its Equity Commitment or the preferred equity acquired to certain of its affiliates or related persons.

Additionally, in connection with the entering into of the Merger Agreement, Thirty Fifth LLC also agreed to contribute an additional $250,000,000 to a fund affiliated with Silver Lake in exchange for limited partnership interests in such fund (as such amount may be increased or decreased as described below, the “LP Investment”), with such funds being used to provide additional financing in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.  Prior to the closing of the Company Merger, the size of the LP Investment shall be reduced under certain circumstances (but not below $100,000,000) and Thirty Fifth LLC has the right to request an increase in the size of the LP Investment, which may be accepted or rejected by Silver Lake. In addition, subject to satisfying certain conditions, Thirty Fifth LLC may sell or otherwise assign all or any portion of its LP Investment or the limited partnership interests acquired to certain of its affiliates or related persons.

and their respective businesses, to the best of your knowledge), that has been or will be made available to the Purchasers directly or indirectly by you, the Target or by any of your or its subsidiaries or representatives, in each case, on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, when taken as a whole and together with the reports and other information filed by the Target or any of its subsidiaries with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including the risk factors therein), is or will be, when furnished, correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when furnished and when taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto from time to time) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to the Purchasers by you or by any of your subsidiaries or representatives, in each case, on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have been, or will be, prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time prepared and at the time the related Projections are so furnished to the Purchasers; it being understood that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material.  You agree that, if at any time prior to the closing of the Acquisition and the funding of the Preferred Financing (the “Closing Date”), you become aware that any of the representations and warranties in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and the Projections were being furnished, and such representations and warranties were being made, at such time, then you will (or, with respect to the Information and Projections relating to the Target and its subsidiaries, will use commercially reasonable efforts to) promptly supplement the Information and the Projections such that such representations and warranties are correct in all material respects under those circumstances (or, in the case of the Information relating to the Target and its subsidiaries and its and their respective businesses, to the best of your knowledge, such representations and warranties are correct in all material respects under those circumstances).

As consideration for the Commitments hereunder, Issuer agrees, (x) if and only if the Closing of the portion of the Preferred Financing for which a Purchaser has provided Commitments and the Transactions occurs, to pay, or cause to be paid, to such Purchaser a non-refundable closing payment as set forth on Annex I (the “Closing Payment”), which such Purchaser may elect to net fund, (y) if and only if the Closing of the Acquisition by Buyer, Silver Lake or any one or more of their affiliates occurs, and the Preferred Financing allocated to a particular Purchaser is not funded as a result of a failure of a condition to such Purchaser’s Commitments hereunder to be satisfied (provided such Purchaser is not then in breach of this Commitment Letter so as to cause any of the conditions to such Purchaser’s Commitments hereunder not to be satisfied (or to be incapable of fulfillment)), to pay, or cause to be paid, to such Purchaser a nonrefundable alternate transaction fee as set forth on Annex I (assuming all such Commitments were funded), which the Issuer and such Purchaser agree constitutes liquidated damages payable to compensate such Purchaser for the lost investment opportunity, and (z) if the
3


Closing of any portion of the Preferred Financing and the Transactions occurs, to reimburse the Purchasers on the Closing Date for any and all out-of-pocket expenses and the fees and documented disbursements of legal counsel to the Purchasers, incurred in connection with transactions contemplated hereby through the Closing Date, subject to an aggregate cap of $500,000 (which such amount may be allocated amongst the Purchasers in their discretion and as they may agree).
4.
Conditions. The Commitments of each Purchaser hereunder shall be subject solely to conditions expressly set forth in Exhibit C to this Commitment Letter (the “Funding Conditions”), and upon satisfaction (or waiver by such Purchaser in accordance with this Commitment Letter) of such conditions, the initial funding of the Commitment of such Purchaser shall occur; it being understood that there are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder, including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter other than the Funding Conditions that are expressly stated to be conditions to the issuance and sale of the Preferred Equity on the Closing Date.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Commitment Letter (including each of the Exhibits attached hereto) or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary,  (i) the only representations and warranties relating to you or the Target or your or their respective subsidiaries or businesses or otherwise, the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the funding of the Preferred Financing on the Closing Date shall be (a) such of the representations and warranties (if any) made by, or with respect to, the Target and its subsidiaries in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Purchasers in their capacities as such, but only to the extent that you (or your affiliate) have the right (taking into account any applicable notice and cure provisions) to terminate your (and/or its) obligations under the Acquisition Agreement or decline to consummate the Acquisition or otherwise results in a failure of a condition precedent in the Acquisition Agreement (in each case, in accordance with the terms thereof) as a result of a breach of such representations and warranties in the Acquisition Agreement (to such extent, the “Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations”) and (b) the Specified Representations (as defined below) made by the Issuer in the Preferred Equity Documentation, and (ii) the terms of the Preferred Equity Documentation and the Closing Deliverables (as defined in Exhibit C to this Commitment Letter) shall be in a form such that they do not impair the issuance of the Preferred Equity on the Closing Date assuming the Funding Conditions are satisfied (or waived in writing by the Purchasers in their sole discretion).  For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the applicable representations and warranties of Issuer to be set forth in the Preferred Equity Documentation relating to organizational corporate existence of Issuer as of the Closing Date; tax status of the Issuer as a corporation; power and authority, due authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability, in each case, related to, the issuance of the Preferred Financing and performance of the applicable definitive documentation related to the Preferred Financing; and the issuance of the Preferred Financing does not conflict with the organizational documents of Issuer; solvency as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions) of the Issuer and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (solvency to be defined in a manner consistent with the manner in which solvency is determined in the solvency certificate to be delivered in the form set forth in Annex II); the Investment Company Act; the use of proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Preferred Financing not violating the PATRIOT Act
4


(as defined below), OFAC or FCPA; valid issuance of the Preferred Equity and that the Preferred Equity is fully paid and non-assessable; and status of the Preferred Equity as senior in payment priority and liquidation preference to all equity of the Issuer.

5


third person, and to promptly reimburse after receipt of a written request, each such Indemnified Person for any reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing by one firm of counsel for all such Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole and, if necessary, by a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single firm of special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnified Person affected by such conflict notifies you of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, by another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnified Person) or other reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating, responding to, or defending any of the foregoing; provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Person, apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses to the extent that they have resulted from (i) the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person or any Related Indemnified Person (as defined below) (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), (ii) a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnified Person or any Related Indemnified Person under this Commitment Letter (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) or (iii) any Proceeding solely between or among Indemnified Persons not arising from any act or omission by you or any of your affiliates.  The foregoing provisions in this paragraph shall be superseded, in each case, to the extent covered thereby by the applicable provisions contained in the definitive documentation of the Preferred Financing upon execution and delivery thereof and thereafter shall have no further force and effect.

c.  Settlement.
You shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without your written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if settled with your written consent or if there is a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in any such Proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented legal or other out-of-pocket expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with and to the extent provided in the other provisions of this Section 5. It is further agreed that the Purchasers shall be
6


severally liable in respect of their Commitments, on a several, and not joint basis with any other Purchaser.

6.
Confidentiality. You agree that you will not disclose, directly or indirectly, prior to your acceptance hereof, this Commitment Letter, the Term Sheet, the other exhibits and attachments hereto or the contents of each thereof, or the activities of any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, to any person or entity without the prior written approval of the Purchasers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), except (a) to the Investors (as defined in Exhibit A) and to any of your or the Investors’ affiliates and your and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants, advisors, controlling persons and equity holders and to actual and potential co-investors who are informed of the confidential nature thereof, on a confidential and need-to-know basis, (b) if the Purchasers consent in writing to such proposed disclosure or (c) pursuant to an order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal, judicial or administrative proceeding, or otherwise as required by applicable law, rule or regulation or compulsory legal process or to the extent requested or required by governmental and/or regulatory authorities, in each case based on the reasonable advice of your legal counsel (in which case you agree, to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation, to inform us promptly thereof prior to disclosure); provided that (i) you may disclose this Commitment Letter and the contents hereof  (other than with respect to Section 3 hereof and information with respect to fees, compensation or discounts within the Term Sheet) to the Target, its subsidiaries and affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants, advisors and controlling persons, on a confidential and need-to-know basis, (ii) you may disclose the Commitment Letter and its contents (including the Term Sheet and other exhibits and attachments hereto) (but not the contents of Section 3 hereof or information with respect to fees, compensation or discounts within the Term Sheet) in any syndication or other marketing materials in connection with the Credit Facilities (as defined in Exhibit A) and Margin Bridge Facility (as defined in Exhibit A) (including any marketing materials and information memorandum used in connection therewith), (iii) you may disclose the aggregate fee amounts contained in this Commitment
7


Letter as part of Projections, pro forma information or a generic disclosure of aggregate sources and uses related to fee amounts related to the Transactions to the extent customary or required in any marketing materials or in connection with the Credit Facilities or in connection with any public or regulatory filing requirement relating to the Transactions (and then only to the extent aggregate with all other fees and expenses of the Transactions and not presented as an individual line item unless required by applicable law, rule or regulation), (iii) you may disclose the Term Sheet and other exhibits and attachments to the Commitment Letter, and the contents thereof, to potential co-investors and to rating agencies in connection with obtaining public ratings for the Borrower (as defined in Exhibit A) and the Credit Facilities, (iv) you may disclose this Commitment Letter and the contents thereof (including the Term Sheet and other exhibits and attachments hereto) to the initial lenders and any prospective lenders under the Credit Facilities and Margin Bridge Facility, the custodian and the transfer agent in connection with the Margin Loan facility, any additional prospective investor in the Preferred Financing and to any such person’s affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants and other advisors, on a confidential and need-to-know basis and (v) in connection with any remedy or enforcement of any right hereunder.

8

This Commitment Letter may not be amended or any provision hereof waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Purchasers and you. This Commitment Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which when taken together, shall constitute one agreement.

9


associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on the applicable signatory to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute such signatory’s legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable against such signatory in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered to the other signatories. This Commitment Letter (including the exhibits hereto), together with any other letter agreement entered into with any of the Purchasers on or prior to the date hereof, (i) are the only agreements that have been entered into among the parties hereto with respect to our commitments with respect to the Preferred Financing and (ii) supersede all prior understandings, whether written or oral, among us with respect to the Preferred Financing and sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect thereto. THIS COMMITMENT LETTER, AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER, OR RELATED TO, THIS COMMITMENT LETTER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW OR TORT LAW ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that (a) the interpretation of the definition of “Material Adverse Effect” (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement) (and whether or not a Material Adverse Effect has occurred), (b) the determination of the accuracy of any Specified Acquisition Agreement Representation and whether as a result of any inaccuracy thereof you (or your affiliate) have the right (taking into account any applicable cure provisions) to terminate your obligations under the Acquisition Agreement or decline to consummate the Acquisition and (c) the determination of whether the Acquisition has been consummated in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, in each case shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware as applied to the Acquisition Agreement, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law that would cause the application of law of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware.

Any Purchaser or its affiliates may, in consultation with you, place customary advertisements in financial and other newspapers and periodicals or on a home page or similar place for dissemination of customary information on the Internet or worldwide web as it may choose, and circulate similar promotional materials, in each case, after the Closing Date, in the form of “tombstone” or otherwise describing the name of the Issuer and the amount, type and closing date of the Transactions, all at the expense of such Purchaser or affiliate.
Each of the parties hereto agrees that this Commitment Letter is a binding and enforceable agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein, including an agreement to negotiate in good faith the Preferred Equity Documentation by the parties hereto in a manner consistent with this Commitment Letter, it being acknowledged and agreed that the commitments provided hereunder are subject solely to conditions precedent as expressly provided herein.
