First Amendment to 2024 Executive Interest Plan

On May 5, 2024, 5&2 Studios, Inc. (formerly The Chosen, Inc.) (the “Company”) adopted The Chosen, Inc. 2024 Executive Interest Plan (the “Executive Interest Plan”) and the Company continues to maintain the Executive Interest Plan under which the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) is authorized to grant executive interests (the “Interests”) to certain providers to the Company, including to executive officers and members of the Board. The Executive Interest Plan is intended to advance the best interests of the Company by providing certain executives, key employees and service providers of the Company an incentive in the form of cash payments to promote the financial success of the Company. Under the terms of the Executive Interest Plan, each Interest is the economic equivalent of the Company’s Series B Common Stock, par value $0.001, and each Interest vests upon a qualifying sale, as determined by the Board. A copy of the Executive Interest Plan was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 14, 2024.

On May 5, 2024, the Company granted the corresponding Interests to the following persons (collectively, the “Executives”) pursuant to the Executive Interest Award Agreement (the “Award Agreement”):

*Name and Principal Position*	*Interests*
Bradley Pelo, President	755,000
JD Larsen, Chief Financial Officer	151,000
David Stidham, Senior Vice President of Business Affairs and General Counsel	106,000
Kyle Young, Executive Vice President of Distribution and International	151,000

On January 28, 2025, the Board approved and the Company granted 113,250 Executive Interests to each of David Bagheri, Cris Doornbos, Brooke Asiatico and Matt Rearden, each a non-employee director of the Company, pursuant to the Award Agreement.

On January 28, 2025, the Board approved an amendment to the Award Agreement (the “First Amendment”) to provide for full vesting of the Executives’ Interests upon a sale of the Company.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment, which is filed as exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
