INVESTOR PRESENTATION | OCTOBER 2018

FORWARD - LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation (the “Presentation”) relates to Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment, Inc. (“CSS Entertainment” or the “ Com pany”), which completed its initial public offering in August 2017 pursuant to a qualified offering statement (“Offering Statement”) filed under Regulation A as promulg ate d under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Company completed its acquisition of Screen Media Ventures, LLC in November 2017 as further described in the Co mpany’s current report on Form 8 - K, initially filed on November 6, 2017 and amended on January 16, 2018 and January 17, 2018 (the “Screen Media 8 - K”). The Company completed its acquisition of Pivotshare , Inc. in August 2018 as further described in the Company’s current report on Form 8 - K, filed on August 28, 2018 (the “ Pivotshare 8 - K”). Financial information for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the six months ended June 30, 2018 is derived from our Annual Report on Form 10 - K and Quarterly Report on Form 10 - Q, respectively, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Please see these reports, our Offering Statement, our Current Reports on Form 8 - K (incl uding the Screen Media 8 - K, as amended) and our other filings at www.sec.gov . The purpose of this Presentation is to assist persons in their review of the business and plans of the Company . In addition to the information presented herein, you are advised to read the Offering Circular, which contains additional information, including information regarding the risks faced by the Company in its operations and the risks involved in an investment in the Company . The entire contents of this Presentation is qualified by the Offering Circular . This Presentation includes “forward - looking statements” and projections . CSS Entertainment’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward looking statements or projections as predictions of future events . Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward - looking statements . These forward - looking statements and projections include, without limitation, estimates and projections of future performance, which are based on numerous assumptions about sales, margins, competitive factors, industry performance and other factors which cannot be predicted . Therefore, the actual results of operations are likely to vary from the projections and the variations may be material and adverse . The projections should not be regarded as a representation or prediction that CSS Entertainment will achieve or is likely to achieve any particular results . CSS Entertainment cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward - looking statements and projections, which speak only as of the date made . CSS Entertainment does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward - looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based . The Company uses a non - GAAP financial measure to evaluate its results of operations and as a supplemental indicator of our operating performance . The non - GAAP financial measure that the Company uses is Adjusted EBITDA . Adjusted EBITDA is considered a non - GAAP financial measure as defined by Regulation G promulgated by the Act, as amended . Due to the significance of non - cash and non - recurring expenses recognized in the years ended December 31 , 2017 and 2016 , and six months ended June 30 , 2018 and the likelihood of material non - cash and non - recurring expenses to occur in future periods, the Company believes that this non - GAAP financial measure will enhance the understanding of its historical and current financial results . Further, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA enables its board of directors and management to analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions that will directly effect operating decisions and investments . The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non - recurring items or by non - cash items . This non - GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, the Company’s actual operating results included in its consolidated financial statements . All registered or unregistered service marks, trademarks and trade names referred to in this Presentation are the property of their respective owners, and CSS Entertainment’s use herein does not imply an affiliation with, or endorsement by, the owners of these service marks, trademarks or trade names . The securities of CSS Entertainment are highly speculative . Investing in shares of CSS Entertainment involves significant risks, including those described in the Offering Circular . 2

RISK FACTORS The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in this presentatio n: • CSSE does not have a long operating history on which to evaluate the company. • Certain conflicts of interest may arise between CSSE and its affiliated companies and CSSE has waived certain rights with res pec t thereto. • CSSE’s reliance on third parties for production and distribution could limit its control over the quality of the finished vid eo content. • An integral part of CSSE’s strategy is to initially minimize its production and distribution costs by utilizing funding sourc es provided by others, however, such sources may not be readily available. • As CSSE grows the Company may seek to fund and produce more of its video content directly, subjecting the Company to signific ant additional risks. • CSSE has derived revenue to date from limited video content and a limited number of clients, and has funded its projects from a limited number of sources. • CSSE is required to make continuing payments to its affiliates, which may reduce cash flow and profits. • Distributors’ failure to promote CSSE’s video content could adversely affect its revenue and could adversely affect its busin ess results. • CSSE is smaller and less diversified than many of its competitors. • CSSE faces risks from doing business internationally. • Protecting and defending against intellectual property claims may have a material adverse effect on its business. • Piracy of video content may harm CSSE’s business. • CSSE relies upon a number of partners to offer streaming of content to various devices. • Any significant disruption in the computer systems of third parties that CSSE utilizes in its operations could result in a lo ss or degradation of service and could adversely impact its business. • CSSE’s online activities are subject to a variety of laws and regulations relating to privacy, which, if violated, could subj ect CSSE to an increased risk of litigation and regulatory actions. • If government regulations relating to the internet or other areas of CSSE’s business change, CSSE may need to alter the manne r i n which it conducts business or incur greater operating expenses. • If CSSE experiences rapid growth, CSSE may not manage its growth effectively, execute its business plan as proposed or adequa tel y address competitive challenges. • CSSE’s exclusive license to use the Chicken Soup for the Soul brand could be terminated in certain circumstances. • CSSE’s success depends on its management and relationships with affiliated companies. • CSSE is an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act of 2012 and cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make its Class A common stock less attractive to investors. • CSSE’s status as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act of 2012 may make it more difficult to raise capital as and w hen the Company needs it. • Since CSSE’s content is digitally stored and distributed online, and CSSE accepts online payments for various subscription se rvi ces, causing its business to face numerous cybersecurity risks. A more complete description of these risks and uncertainties can be found in the filings of the Company with the U.S. Securit ies and Exchange Commission. 3
