#1Vividseats Experience It Live William Blair Growth Conference June 2022 (Nasdaq: SEAT) Vividseats#2Agenda 01 02 03 Company Overview Stan Chia, Chief Executive Officer Financials Lawrence Fey, Chief Financial Officer Q&A Stan Chia, Chief Executive Officer Lawrence Fey, Chief Financial Officer#3Forward looking statements and use of non-GAAP financial measures Certain statements made in this presentation are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this presentation may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this presentation include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, including our expectations regarding Marketplace Gross Order Value, revenues and Adjusted EBITDA and the impact of our investments; our expectations with respect to live event industry growth; our competitive positioning; our business strategy; and the plans and objectives of management for future operations. When used in this presentation, the words "estimates," "projected," "expects," "anticipates," "forecasts," "plans," "intends," "believes," "seeks," "may," "will," "should," "future," "propose" and variations of these words or similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside of our control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors, among others, that may affect actual results or outcomes include the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the timing and manner of the resumption of large- scale sporting events, concerts and theater shows, our relationships with buyers, sellers and distribution partners, changes in Internet search engine algorithms or changes in marketplace rules, competition in the ticketing industry, the willingness of artists, teams and promoters to continue to support the secondary ticket market, and our ability to maintain and improve our platform and brand or develop successful new solutions and enhancements or improve existing ones, the impact of potential unfavorable legislative developments, the success of our acquisition of Betcha Sports, Inc., our ability to obtain subsequent debt refinancing, the impact of system interruption and the lack of integration and redundancy in our systems and infrastructure, the impact of cyber security risks, data loss or other breaches of our network security, our being a controlled company, and other risks and uncertainties described in the section titled "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, which are non-GAAP measures, because they are measures frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Further, we believe these measures are helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results as they exclude the impact of items that are outside the control of management or not reflective of ongoing performance related directly to the operation of our business segments. These non-GAAP measures are used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to analyzing operating expenses, evaluating performance, and performing strategic planning and annual budgeting. Moreover, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as providing a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance and highlighting trends in our operating results. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further limitations of these non-GAAP measures are that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our operating results as determined in accordance with GAAP and may exclude costs that are recurring, such as interest expense, equity-based compensation, litigation, settlements and related costs and change in value of warrants. In addition, other companies may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently than us, thereby limiting their usefulness as a comparative tool. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. Please refer to the "Non-GAAP Reconciliations" at the end in this presentation. We calculate forward-looking non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA based on internal forecasts that omit certain information that would be included in forward-looking GAAP net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We do not attempt to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA guidance to forward-looking GAAP net income (loss) because forecasting the timing or amount of items that have not yet occurred and are out of our control is inherently uncertain and unavailable without unreasonable efforts.

In October 2021, as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, Horizon merged with us (the "Merger Transaction"), upon which the separate corporate existence of Horizon ended and we remained as the surviving entity. At the same time, we became a publicly traded company listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market ("Nasdaq") with our Class A common stock trading under the symbol "SEAT" and warrants trading under the symbol "SEATW." On June 30, 2017, we entered into a $575.0 million first lien debt facility, comprised of a $50.0 million revolving facility (the "Revolving Facility") and a $525.0 million term loan (the "June 2017 First Lien Loan"), and a second lien credit facility, comprised of a $185.0 million second lien term loan (the "June 2017 Second Lien Loan"). The First Lien Loan was amended to upsize the committed amount by $115.0 million on July 2, 2018. On October 28, 2019, we paid off our June 2017 Second Lien Loan balance. The underlying credit facility was subsequently retired on May 22, 2020. On October 18, 2021, in connection with and using the proceeds from the Merger Transaction, we made an early payment of a portion of our May 2020 First Lien Loan balance. On May 22, 2020, we entered into a new $260.0 million first lien term loan (the "May 2020 First Lien Loan") that is pari passu with the June 2017 First Lien Loan. The proceeds from the May 2020 First Lien Loan were used for general corporate purposes and to extinguish and retire the Revolving Facility in full. On October 18, 2021, in connection with and using the proceeds from the Merger Transaction, we paid off in full our May 2020 First Lien Loan balance. In connection with the Merger Transaction, Hoya Intermediate issued to Hoya Topco (i) warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of Hoya Intermediate common units at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, and (ii) warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of Hoya Intermediate common units at an exercise of $15.00 per share (collectively, the "Hoya Intermediate Warrants"). . . . We have historically incurred sales tax expense in jurisdictions where we expected to remit sales tax payments but were not yet collecting from customers. During the second half of 2021, we began collecting sales tax from customers in all required states. The sales tax liability presented herein represents the exposure for sales tax prior to the date we began collecting sales tax from customers reduced by abatements received, inclusive of any penalties and interest assessed by the jurisdictions. Discussions with jurisdictions regarding our liability for uncollected sales taxes continued into 2022. Transaction costs consist of legal; accounting; tax and other professional fees; personnel-related costs, which consists of retention bonuses; and integration costs. Transaction costs recognized in 2022 were related to the merger transaction with Horizon Acquisition Corporation (the "Merger Transaction"), the acquisition of Betcha Sports Inc., and refinancing of the remaining June 2017 First Lien Loan with a new February 2022 rst Lien Loan. Transaction costs recognized in 2021 were related to the Merger Transaction, to the extent they were not eligible capitalization. We incur equity-based compensation expenses for profits interests issued prior to the Merger Transaction and equity granted according to the 2021 Incentive Award Plan ("2021 Plan"), which we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance. The 2021 Plan was approved and adopted in order to facilitate the grant of equity incentive awards to our employees and directors. The 2021 Plan became effective on October 18, 2021. Losses incurred resulted from the extinguishment of the June 2017 First Lien Loan in February 2022. These amounts relate to external legal costs, settlement costs and insurance recoveries, which were unrelated to our core business operations. These charges relate to severance costs resulting from significant reductions in employee headcount due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. These expenses relate to the revaluation of Hoya Intermediate Warrants following the Merger Transaction. ● Vivid Seats 22
