PROCESS UPDATE SINCE LOI SUBMISSION Following the submission of its Letter of Intent (“LOI”, “Reaffirmed Proposal”) on July 24, the Special Committee, advised by PJ Solomon, analyzed and discussed the LOI and decided to grant Kingswood exclusivity conditioned upon (i) a higher price per share offer than the $1.10 per share price indicated (ii) further evidence that Kingswood’s $100M fundraising would be successful PJ Solomon spoke with M2O (Kingswood’s fund placement agent) and learned the fundraising was going well and targeting a mid-late August close Additionally, PJ Solomon negotiated with Kingswood and on July 30, Kingswood submitted an updated LOI (“Updated LOI”) increasing the purchase price to $1.15 per share Satisfying the Special Committee’s two conditions, Kingswood and Stratosphere executed an Exclusivity Agreement on July 31, which grants Kingswood exclusivity until 11:59pm August 31, 2019 (and terminates if Kingswood stops pursuing the transaction or signs a definitive agreement) On August 1, PJ Solomon sent a Foley-prepared draft of the Merger Agreement and Disclosure Schedules, Voting Agreement and Guarantee to Kingswood From August 6-8, Kingswood and its new Operating Partner [Third Party] traveled to Jacksonville to conduct on-site diligence, which included meetings with key management and a store visit Following the on-site diligence meetings, Kingswood hired several advisors including Goodwin Procter (Legal), Aon (Insurance & Benefits), Alix Partners (Operational) and A&G (Real Estate) ? These advisors have been active in the data room and are providing supplemental document requests Additionally, Kingswood has narrowed down its financing process to five ABL providers (RBC, PNC, Fifth Third, BAML, JPM) and two FILO / Term Loan providers (Great American, Pathlight) ? PJ Solomon (with the Special Committee’s permission) also granted Kingswood access to Wells Fargo and Gordon Brothers and is inviting them to defend their incumbent position as the current ABL / FILO provider

PROCESS UPDATE SINCE LOI SUBMISSION (CONT’D) On August 22, PJ Solomon spoke with Kingswood, who mentioned the diligence process has been going well so far. Michael Niegsch, the lead Partner on the deal, provided the following commentary: ? Currently, Kingswood’s main focus is developing a business plan with Alix Partners that anticipates potential savings and opportunities under its ownership ? Before signing a definitive agreement, Kingswood also plans to hire a third-party accounting advisor that would conduct a workpaper review, but anticipates it would be largely confirmatory in nature ? With respect to the Merger Agreement (and related transaction documents), Goodwin Procter (Kingswood’s legal advisor) has specialists reviewing the data room and the Merger Agreement to provide a fulsome markup next week ? The financing process has been going well, but Kingswood anticipates keeping the incumbent lenders (Wells Fargo and Gordon Brothers) based on their aggressive borrowing rates, lower closing / pre-payment fees and knowledge of the business ? Jay Stein is current on Kingswood’s progress and remains excited about the potential transaction ? Kingswood’s anticipates its inaugural $100M fundraising will close tomorrow (Friday, August 23)

DUE DILIGENCE UPDATE Business due diligence is largely complete and several third party workstreams well underway with 72% requests addressed to date (although follow-up requests are likely) Kingswood has communicated it is likely to hire more advisors (e.g., accounting / tax) Kingswood anticipates providing a markup of the Merger Agreement next week Stratosphere Data Room Number of Documents: 7,226 Page Total: 86,286 Goodwin Procter Aon (Insurance + Alix Partners Kingswood Total (Legal) Benefits) (Operational) Diligence Requests / Questions Open 0 19 21 7 47 In Process 3 8 4 0 15 Closed 100 34 16 11 161 Total Requests 103 61 41 18 223 % Closed 97% 56% 36% 61% 72% Meetings 1 Pre-LOI meeting None None None 2 1 Post-LOI on-site diligence meeting Calls 1 pre-LOI financial call None 1 diligence call None 5 3 post-LOI diligence calls Note: Updated as of August 21, 2019.

Process Update • On August 1, 2019, Stratosphere entered into exclusivity with Kingswood following the buyer’s $1.15 per share indication submitted July 30, 2019 At the time, the prevailing projections were the “4+8” forecast indicating FY 2019E EBITDA of $35.1 million • On August 27, 2019, the full Stratosphere Board of Directors (excluding Jay Stein) approved the 6+6 projections and the revised Five Year Plan, which PJ Solomon thereafter sent to Kingswood; the 6+6 indicated revised FY 2019E EBITDA of $31.3 million • On August 30, 2019, Kingswood sent Stratosphere’s advisors a markup of the Merger Agreement • Foley sent a revised draft of the Merger Agreement on September 7, 2019, which, among other revisions, reinstated the provision to make the transaction contingent on approval of the majority of the minority shareholders • In several subsequent conversations between PJ Solomon and Kingswood on the open points in the Merger Agreement, PJ Solomon insisted on keeping the transaction contingent on approval of the majority of the minority shareholders, which led to the parties breaking off discussions • In October, after hiring a new operating partner [Third Party], Kingswood and the Company decided to re-engage [Third Party] met with Management in-person in Jacksonville on October 7-8, 2019 and then visited stores in Dallas on November 7, 2019 and in Orlando on November 20, 2019 • As Kingswood continued its diligence, several key issues arose: Stratosphere’s financial performance continued to deteriorate, ultimately revising its year end Adj. EBITDA down to $24.9 million from $31.3 million in its 6+6 Board-approved plan Kingswood believed several agreements signed by Management [vendor] were expensive and not additive to the business Kingswood vocalized concerns over the large severance liability for the 11 EVPs / SVPs and 24 VPs, currently estimated at ~$11 million of impact (according to the buyers) Private and Confidential 2

Process Update (Cont’d) • Following a weak November, Kingswood decided to slow the process to be able to observe December performance In November, actual adjusted EBITDA was ($4.9) million vs. the 6+6 projection of ($0.5) million In December, actual adjusted EBITDA was $18.0 million vs. the 6+6 projection of $21.7 million • Following this poor performance, Management reforecasted its FY 2019E estimate (11+1) and created an updated version of the 5 Year Plan which was approved by the Special Committee on January 15, 2020 • In the interim, Kingswood sent drafts of key transaction documentation including the Merger Agreement, Voting Agreement, Equity and Debt Commitments and Rollover Agreement as it progressed on non-value workstreams • On January 17, 2020, PJ Solomon received an email from Kingswood detailing their response on the three remaining open items in the draft Merger Agreement: Purchase Price per Share: $0.75 Excess Availability at Close: Not less than 32.5% of the Line Cap Parent Termination Fee and Company Termination Fee: 5% of equity value / equity purchase price • PJ Solomon called Kingswood in response to confirm receipt and clarify the Excess Availability definition Per Kingswood, the definition is as per existing Wells Fargo Credit Facility loan documents • On January 20, 2020, the Special Committee rejected the $0.75 per share purchase price with no counter-offer as it determines what, if any, next steps are to be taken • Wells Fargo and Pathlight (Kingswood’s new lenders) are both finalizing the Debt Commitment Agreements and indicated an anticipated delivery date to Stratosphere of Wednesday, January 22, 2020 Private and Confidential 3

Process Summary to Date

2018 Process Summary • In January 2018, PJ Solomon (“PJS”) conducted a process to evaluate strategic alternatives for Stratosphere, including a potential sale 19 parties in total were contacted, of which 5 signed NDAs and 4 received data room access Firm A, a private equity fund, initially submitted a preliminary indication of interest and met with the Management team, but offered no price or structural specifics All other parties contacted declined to submit an offer for an acquisition of Stratosphere • With no buyers emerging from the initial outreach, PJS advised the Special Committee on securing a $50 million FILO Loan from Gordon Brothers in March 2018 to provide the Company with liquidity to operate • PJS also ran a Tailored Capital Process to raise $100 million through an equity-linked term loan in March 2018 and ultimately received one proposal for a $60-70 million Senior Secured Term Loan from Firm A, which was “off-market” in the judgement of PJS • On May 1, 2018, Firm A, together with operating partner [Third Party], contacted the Special Committee revisiting their interest in buying the whole company (closing stock price was $2.04 per share on that date) Firm A met the Special Committee and PJS on May 3, 2018, to discuss their views on the Company’s valuation and the acquisition opportunity indicated that subject to further diligence, they (together with Jay Stein) were willing to pay $2.25 to $2.50 per share to acquire 100% of Stratosphere However, on May 7, 2018, Firm A called to say they did not see a take-private deal as possible at the current market price ($2.48 per share) and instead reverted to the refinancing solution, which, again, PJS did not view as a viable solution and thought was not in the best interest of the shareholders Private and Confidential 4
