On June 6, 2023, Bruce Ogilvie made a loan in the principal amount of $7,595,520 (the “Loan”) to Alliance Entertainment Holding Corporation (the “Company”).

The Loan has no specified terms but is expected to be repaid from cash flow on or before June 30, 2023. The Company agreed to pay interest on the Loan at the rate of BSBY plus 3% per annum calculated daily. The expected interest cost to be paid to Mr. Ogilvie if BSBY remains at 5.16% and paid on June 30, 2023 would be approximately $41,000. This amount is subject to change based upon BSBY daily rate fluctuation.
