Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or anObligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On April 20, 2025, (the “EffectiveDate”) FreeCast, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) entered into a Renewal Revolving Convertible Promissory Note, dated April 20, 2026, with Nextelligence, Inc. (“Nextelligence”) in the principal amount not to exceed $5 million (the “Note”). Nextelligence is controlled by William A. Mobley, Jr., our Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of our board of directors (the “Board”) and holder of the majority voting power of the Company. The Note renews and modifies that certain Revolving Convertible Promissory Note between us and Nextelligence dated November 21, 2025 in the principal amount of up to $5,000,000 (the “Former Note”) by extending the maturity date and changing the payment terms with regards to the conversion price of the Former Note only. By renewing the Former Note, the Note superseded in its entirety, and was substituted for and in lieu of, the Former Note, and the Former Note was cancelled.

Under the terms of the Note, in lieu of repayment, at Nextelligence’s option, all or part of the outstanding principal and accrued interest (“Debt”) is convertible into shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (“Shares”) at a conversion price equal to the closing price of a Share on the Nasdaq Global Market on the most recent trading day prior to the date Nextelligence delivers written notice of its election to convert, in whole or in part, the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest due thereon.

The aggregate outstanding principal balance of all loans under the Former Note as of the Effective Date was $5,114,052. In approving the Note, the independent members of the Board approved Nextelligence’s conversion of the $114,052 in outstanding principal above the stated principal amount limit under the Former Note (the “Overage Amount”) at a conversion price of $4.00, the closing price of a Share on the date of the board’s approval, April 13, 2026 (the “Conversion Price”).

In connection with our execution of the Note, Nextelligence delivered written notice to us on the Effective Date of its election to convert: (i) $1,600,000 in outstanding principal into 455,841 Shares, based on a conversion price of $3.51, the closing price of a Share on April 17, 2026; and (ii) the Overage Amount into 28,513 Shares based on the Conversion Price. As of April 21, 2026, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all loans under the Note is $3,400,000.

All loans made under the Note accrue interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 12.0%. The outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Note are due and payable no later than June 30, 2027. We have the right to prepay the Note, in whole or in part, at any time; provided, however, we must provide Nextelligence five days prior written notice of our intention to make such prepayment.

If we: (i) fail to comply with any provision under the Note, including, but not limited to, failing to immediately pay all amounts due to Nextelligence when due in accordance with the Note; or (ii) become subject to certain bankruptcy or insolvency events, at the option of Nextelligence, the unpaid principal amount of the Note, accrued interest thereon, any fees or any other sums payable thereunder will thereafter until paid in full bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 18.0%.

In case of a stock split, a stock combination, or a reverse stock split of the Shares, the number of Shares into which any Debt may be converted and the conversion price shall be proportionately adjusted.

The full text of the Note is attached as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. You are urged to read said exhibit attached hereto inits entirety.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

In connection with our execution of the Note, Nextelligence elected to convert an aggregate of $1,714,052 of outstanding principal into a total of 484,354 Shares, at conversion prices of $3.51 with regards to 455,841 Shares and $4.00 with regards to 28,513 Shares. The offer, sale and issuance of the Note and the Shares were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) and Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. Nextelligence took the Note and the Shares for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof. Appropriate restrictive legends were affixed to the Note and the Shares. Nextelligence is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

By renewing the Current Note, this Note supersedes in its entirety, and is substituted for and in lieu of, the Current Note, and the Current Note shall henceforth be deemed cancelled in the books and records of Payee and Maker. The aggregate principal amount as may be outstanding hereunder from time to time reflects the aggregate principal amount as may be outstanding under the Current Note from time to time.

Interest shall accrue on the aggregate unpaid principal balance outstanding hereunder from time to time at the rate of 12% per annum from and including the date first set forth above to and excluding the Maturity Date (as defined below).

In no event, however, shall interest be payable at a rate higher than the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Interest on the principal balance outstanding will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over an assumed year consisting of 365 days, to the date of receipt by Payee of any interest and/or principal. Interest shall be payable on the unpaid principal balance of this Note, as the same may exist from time to time, from the date of issuance until paid or converted in full, in accordance with the terms herein and shall be payable: (a) on the Maturity Date; or (b) on any earlier date of payment or conversion of principal, in whole or in part and, if in part, as to the portion paid or converted.

(b) The Convertible Amount is convertible at any time at the option of Payee by notice to Maker into that number of Shares equal to the Convertible Amount divided by the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Market on the most recent trading day prior to the Conversion Date (the “Conversion Price”).
