	 	a.	 Provider and/or its Affiliates shall provide and/or procure the provision of the Services to Customer and/or
its Affiliates (in each case subject to Section 2(5)) at Physical Locations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 


  

	 	b.	 With the exception of any functions specifically stated to be retained by the Customer, Provider will be
responsible for obtaining all third party and regulatory approvals, licenses, consents and rights necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement. 


  

	(2)	 Statements of Work. The Services will be ordered on a case by case basis in respect of each applicable
Physical Location through the issuance of statements of work which will be agreed and duly executed by an authorized representative of each Party (each, a “Statement of Work”). The procedure for agreement of, and form of template,
Statement of Work is attached hereto as Schedule 2, provided that Customer and its Affiliates shall have the right to order any of the services listed in Schedule 1 under a Statement of Work in respect of any Physical Location (and Provider and its
Affiliates shall not refuse to provide such services at or to the relevant Physical Location(s)) subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Provider shall not be obliged to perform any services that are not the subject of a
Statement of Work duly issued in accordance with this Section. Each Statement of Work will detail the applicable term of the Statement of Work (including any renewal terms), physical location(s) for the performance of the Services, the fees to be
paid therefor, and such other relevant terms as the parties thereto may agree. Statements of Work may be changed only upon the express written agreement of both parties thereto. Unless expressly provided otherwise in the relevant Statement of Work,
in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms contained in any agreed Statement of Work, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

procuring and supplying the Services and will perform all Services in a timely, professional and workmanlike manner in accordance with best practice and industry standards applicable in the data center construction and maintenance sector in the
United States. Without prejudice to the aforementioned, Provider shall provide the Services in with a manner that meets or exceeds the service level specifications attached hereto at Schedule 3 (the “Service Levels”).



  

	(4)	 Suppliers and Subcontractors. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Provider may procure products and
services from, and subcontract the provision of the Services to, appropriate third party providers (“Subcontractors”) as permitted under this Section 2(4). Notwithstanding the aforementioned, Provider shall at all times remain
primarily liable to Customer for the acts or omissions of any Subcontractors as if it were providing the Services to Customer directly itself, subject to (i) any limitations of liability set out in this Agreement, and (ii) the terms of any
written agreements entered into by Customer directly with Subcontractors in connection with such Services. Provider shall ensure that its contract with each Subcontractor, as a minimum, imposes confidentiality restrictions in all material respects
equivalent to those set out in Section 11 and audit rights sufficient to enable audits to be carried out as set out in Section 12. As of the Effective Date, the Subcontractors listed in Schedule 5 shall be deemed to be approved by
Customer. Provider shall not engage any further Subcontractors in the performance of the Services without obtaining the prior written approval of Customer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), save that approval shall not be
required for any Subcontractors performing Services that: (i) are not dedicated to Customer, (ii) do not form a material part of the Services; and (iii) do not involve the personnel of such Subcontractors having access to Confidential
Information. Provider acknowledges that the Customer uses (or will use in the future) third party suppliers to provide products and services ancillary to the Services. Accordingly, Provider will, where reasonably practicable and at no material cost,
seek to integrate its performance of the Services with the services performed by such third party suppliers so that the Customer and its Affiliates receive the Services seamlessly and without disruption. 



 

	(5)	 Affiliates. Any of Customer’s controlled Affiliates may purchase Services under this Agreement and
any of Provider’s Affiliates may provide Services under this Agreement in each case by entering into a Statement of Work in accordance with Section 2(2), provided that each of Customer and Provider shall remain wholly liable for the acts
or omissions of its Affiliates and compliance of such Affiliates with the terms of this Agreement, subject to any (i) limitations of liability (and any exclusions therefrom), or (ii) rights of assignment, in each case as set out in this
Agreement. For the purposes of a Statement of Work duly executed by an Affiliate of Customer, references to “Customer” in this Agreement and the Statement of Work shall be deemed to be and include references to the Affiliate executing the
Statement of Work and for the purposes of a Statement of Work executed by an Affiliate of Provider, references to “Provider” in this Agreement and the Statement of Work shall be deemed to be and include references to the Affiliate
executing the Statement of Work. 



  
 8 














	(6)	 Supply of Equipment. The Parties shall agree and enter in an Equipment Purchase Agreement in respect of
each Physical Location. Where Customer (or an Affiliate) requires Equipment to be provided to any Physical Location, Customer shall notify Provider and Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to manufacture (or procure the manufacture by
its suppliers and/or subcontractors) and supply to Customer the quantity, specification and type of Equipment requested on terms reasonably acceptable to Customer (or its Affiliate). The relevant parties shall document the same in purchase order(s)
to be entered into in accordance with each respective Equipment Purchase Agreement. If Customer (acting reasonably) determines that Provider is not able to meet the request, Customer (or its Affiliate) may instead procure the relevant equipment from
any other party. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms contained in any Equipment Purchase Agreement or the purchase orders thereunder, the relevant Equipment Purchase Agreement and the purchase orders
thereunder shall prevail. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Customer or its Affiliates from selling or otherwise transferring any Equipment purchased in connection with this Agreement, to any third party.



  

	(7)	 Right of First Refusal: Customer’s Rights of Information and First Refusal. In addition to
Customer’s rights pursuant to Section 2(6), upon request by Customer (such requests not to be made more frequently than every three (3) months), Provider shall notify Customer of its total forecasted output of Chips and Servers,
identified by specification and type, in respect of the following three (3) month period. Without prejudice to the foregoing or Section 17, Provider shall notify Customer in advance of contracting to supply more than 10 MW worth of Chips
to any individual third party customer (provided that, in doing so, Provider shall not be required to disclose the identity or location of the relevant customer, or otherwise breach any duty of confidentiality owed to such customer or any third
party). In the event that Customer, within seven (7) days of receipt of Provider’s notification, confirms to Provider in writing that it wishes to purchase such Chips, in whole or in part, the Parties shall contract for the same under a
Statement of Work in accordance with Section 2(2) and Schedule 2. In the event that Customer fails to respond to such notification within seven (7) days of receipt, or to the extent it declines to purchase such Chips, Provider shall be
entitled to conclude the relevant customer contract. 


 Section 3         Term 

The initial term of this Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and, unless terminated earlier as permitted herein, shall expire on the date falling
eighty-four (84) months thereafter (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter the term of this Agreement shall renew automatically for consecutive renewal terms of twelve (12) months each (each, a “Renewal Term”,
and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”). Either Party may terminate this Agreement at the end of the Initial Term or the 

  
 9 













 
relevant Renewal Term by delivering written notice of termination to the other Party not later than (i) 12 (twelve) months prior to the end of the Initial Term or, (ii) in the case of any
Renewal Term, 6 (six) months prior to the end of such term, as applicable. Certain Services may be provided on a monthly, weekly, daily or hourly basis, as more fully described in the applicable Statement of Work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in

in detail in the applicable duly issued Statement of Work and/or Equipment Purchase Agreement, which shall include, as at the Commencement Date, the Initial Physical Locations (each such location, and any further location(s) agreed between the
Parties, being a “Physical Location”). Provider will further provide the Services or deliver the Provider Materials only to or in a Physical Location. Provider shall be entitled to refuse provision of Services at its sole discretion
in any location which is not a Physical Location. The Parties may (without prejudice to Section 17) agree to add and include additional locations as Physical Locations from time to time in writing, subject to agreement in writing by both
Parties regarding appropriate amendments to pricing, service levels, non-performance compensation, delivery dates or other commercial terms associated with the provision of the Services at such additional
location. 


  

	(2)	 Power. Customer agrees and acknowledges that (i) Provider is not responsible for the supply of
electricity or other utilities to or at any Physical Location, and (ii) Customer has itself entered (or will enter into) appropriate electricity supply agreements with respect to each Physical Location for supply and delivery, for the duration
of the Initial Term (and, if extended, any Renewal Term), of sufficient power with regard the Services and Assets provided and to be maintained at such location (each a “Power Agreement”). Customer shall pay and be liable for
all power and/or utility costs at each Physical Location during the Term and, for the avoidance of doubt, power and utility costs shall not be included or assumed by Provider as part of the Service Fees. Customer shall provide Provider with adequate
advanced written notice of any specific circumstances or conditions at any Physical Location regarding power supply or delivery as may reasonably affect or require consideration in connection with any Services delivery or provision.

 Section 6         Fees 

 

	(1)	 Fees. The fees to be paid by the Customer to Provider or its Affiliate(s) for the Services shall be as
agreed and set out in the applicable Statement of Work or Equipment Purchase Agreement and, unless otherwise specified therein, shall be a fee calculated per MW of the applicable Equipment and billed on a monthly basis including applicable Sales
Taxes subject to any modifications on a pro rata basis according to the actual MW of Equipment covered by the Services from time to time (the “Service Fees”). The Parties agree that the Service Fees are the only amounts payable by

chargeable to the Customer. 


  

	(2)	 Payment by Bitcoin. Customer may, but shall not be obliged to, pay any portion of the Service Fee in

	 	(i)	 the Customer, will promptly notify Provider, in writing, that it is disputing such Service Fees (and in the
case of withheld payments, prior to the due date of payment); and 



  
 12

	(8)	 Equipment Suspension. In the event relevant Equipment is not operational for not less than forty-eight
(48) consecutive hours at the election of Customer solely in circumstances where the gross revenues attributable to the relevant Equipment are less than the aggregate of the attributable Service Fee, electricity costs and any other relevant
overheads (respectively “Revenue Shortfall” and “Equipment Suspension”) and the Customer notifies the Provider in written form with adequate documentary evidence thereof, the Provider shall, at the request of
Customer, suspend the Services that relate to such Equipment within forty-eight (48) hours of receipt of Customer’s written notice. In such case, Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to reduce its costs and outgoings in
relation to the affected Services and shall pass any reductions achieved on to Customer in the form of a reduction to the Service Fees for the period of suspension. Any suspension of the Services pursuant to this Section 6(8) shall be limited
to a maximum thirty (30) day period, after which (unless agreed otherwise in writing between the Parties) the Service Fees shall again become payable in full. Customer may not suspend the Services pursuant to this Section 6(8) more than
two (2) times in any calendar year. In the event that either Party considers, acting reasonably, that the underlying economic conditions giving rise to any suspension pursuant to this Section 6(8) are likely to remain in effect for more
than two (2) months, it may notify the other Party and the Parties shall then discuss and agree, in good faith, any reasonable and proportionate adjustments to the Services (including the Service Levels) for the remainder of the Term. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Provider shall be entitled to charge Service Fees for arranging and handling switch-on and switch-off procedure for the relevant Equipment.
Customer undertakes that immediately upon cessation of Revenue Shortfall conditions, it shall send a written notice to the Provider and request renewal of the Services whereupon Provider shall renew the Services as soon as practicable and, in any
event, not later than fifteen (15) days following Customer’s notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Provider shall not be liable for any failure to perform in accordance with the Service Levels (and shall not be required to pay any
service credits) to the extent resulting from any suspension of the Services pursuant to this Section 6(8). 


 Section 7
        Safety and Insurance 
  

	(1)	 Provider is solely responsible for the conduct, safety and health of its employees, agents, subcontractors and
the public in supply of the Services under this Agreement at the

policies or applicable Laws related to Provider’s obligations set forth in this Section, Customer (without limitation to other remedies; including indemnification set forth in Section 13), may terminate the impacted Statement of Work if
Provider is unable to remedy such breach in accordance with Section 15 and such failure would be reasonably likely to result in a material adverse effect on the ability of Customer to operate its business at any relevant Physical Location.


  

	(2)	 Provider and its Affiliates shall maintain or cause to be maintained appropriate levels of workers’
compensation, employer’s liability, professional indemnity, product liability and cyber insurance with recognized and duly regulated insurance companies. Such insurance shall cover Provider and its Affiliates against their potential liabilities
under or in connection with this Agreement, to an extent and to limits that would be reasonably expected in accordance with best practice and industry standards applicable in the data center construction and maintenance sector in the United States
and as prescribed by applicable Laws of the country in which the Services will be performed and the states and/or countries of residence of expatriate employees (whichever standard is higher). The requirements stated in this Section shall not be
construed in any way as a limit of Provider’s or any of its Affiliates’ liability under this Agreement, or as constituting any waiver by the Customer or any of its Affiliates of any of their rights or remedies under this Agreement. The
insurances costs shall be recharged to the Customer together with the Service Fee.

Receiving Party may use and copy the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information only in direct furtherance of the purposes of this Agreement. Except to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of

a Receiving Party, disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party:

recognized stock exchange, on condition that, to the extent permitted by Law, before disclosing such Confidential Information, the Receiving Party uses commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Disclosing Party of the required
disclosure and, at the Disclosing Party’s cost and expense, cooperates with the Disclosing Party to take such steps as it desires to challenge or contest such disclosure or seek a protective order; or 



 

	 	(b)	 if the Receiving Party is required by a governmental or regulatory authority or pursuant to the rules of a
recognized stock exchange to disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (including this Agreement) pursuant to applicable securities Laws, the Receiving Party will promptly notify the Disclosing Party and will fully cooperate and work

	(4)	 Securities Law Matters. Each Receiving Party acknowledges that access to the Confidential Information of
the Disclosing Party may provide the Receiving Party with material information concerning the Disclosing Party which has not been publicly disclosed. Accordingly, the Receiving Party may be subject to applicable securities Laws that may restrict its

of Work. Any issue concerning this Agreement or a Statement of Work will initially be addressed by each Party’s Project Managers and, in the event that resolution cannot be achieved within a reasonable timeframe, either Party may escalate the
issue to the Parties’ respective CEOs for resolution. If the Parties are not successful in 



  
 26 














	 	
resolving an issue pursuant to such process, or if the issue is material and either Party believes the Parties will not be successful resolving such issue or dispute pursuant to such process,
then either Party may issue a formal written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) that a dispute (“Dispute”) has arisen and Section 18(2) will apply. For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute may include any claim, difference or
controversy arising out of, relating to or in connection with the Agreement, including disputes as to its existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach, termination, or the consequences of its nullity, and disputes in relation to non-contractual obligations arising in connection with the Agreement or its purpose. 

  

	(2)	 Escalation of Disputes to Arbitration. Except for Disputes involving Confidential Information or the
infringement or misappropriation of Intellectual Property Rights (in which case either Party will be free to seek available remedies in the courts of New York) and as provided in Section 18(3) if the Dispute is unresolved by each Party’s
representatives within seven (7) days after the issuance of the Dispute Notice (or such other period of time agreed to in writing by the Parties) then such Dispute shall be resolved as follows: 



 

	 	(a)	 a Party shall commence arbitration in respect of a Dispute by delivering to the other Party and to the
International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”) a written notice of arbitration. The Dispute will be arbitrated and resolved under the Rules of the ICC. The ICC Rules are incorporated by reference into this Section;



  

	 	(b)	 the claimant and the respondent shall each nominate on arbitrator for appointment and confirmation by the ICC
court. The ICC court shall appoint the chairman; 


  

	 	(c)	 the seat of the arbitration will be the city of New York, New York, United States, the language of the
arbitration will be English. If the Dispute requires parties to rely upon documents in any other language then the said documents shall be accompanied by an English translation (in whole, or in relevant part, as appropriate); 



 

	 	(d)	 there will be three (3) arbitrators. The claimant and the respondent shall each nominate on arbitrator for
appointment and confirmation by the ICC court. The ICC court shall appoint the chairman; 


  

	 	(e)	 the arbitration will be kept confidential and the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including
any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions and any awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitrators, the Parties, their counsel and any person necessary to the conduct of the
proceeding, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or otherwise or as may be required by applicable Law; 



  
 27 














	 	(f)	 this arbitration provision will be governed by and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
state of New York; and 


  

	 	(g)	 judgment upon any award(s) rendered by the arbitral tribunal may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. 


  

	(3)	 Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Party shall have the right to
apply to the courts of New York to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, on either an interim or permanent basis, for any claim arising under or in connection with this Agreement. 



 

	(4)	 Continued Performance. Each Party agrees to continue performing its obligations under this Agreement
while any Dispute is being resolved and without limiting either Party’s rights to terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 15. 



Section 19         Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Planning 

 

	(1)	 The Parties acknowledge that within three (3) months from the effective date of the first Statement of
Work, Provider shall provide the Customer with a formal written business continuity and disaster recovery plan, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Customer (the “Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan”).
From and after the date of delivery of the Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan until the expiry or termination of this Agreement or the last Statement of Work, Provider shall comply with the Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery
Plan.  


  

	(2)	 During the Term, Provider will immediately report to Customer: (i) any significant changes to the Business
Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan; and (ii) any event that could materially affect the delivery of the Services or result in Losses to Customer or its Affiliates. 



 

	(3)	 Provider agrees that, upon request by Customer, Provider will provide to Customer a summary of any business
continuity and disaster recovery test results relating to any of the Services. 


 Section 20
        Governance of Relationship during Term 
 Within ten (10) days from the effective date of the first
Statement of Work, Provider and Customer will each designate an employee as its project manager (the “Project Manager”) who will act as the primary contact for each Party with respect to all matters relating to this Agreement and
the Statements of Work, along with such other employees to fulfill functions agreed by the Parties as useful in order to effectively manage the Services. The Project Manager will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the ongoing tasks and activities involved in the performance of the Services. Provider shall also identify the designated personnel of Provider (or its Affiliates) (together with the
Project Manager, the “Key Personnel”) who will be assigned to perform 

  
 28 













 
Provider’s obligations under this Agreement and the Statements of Work. Provider will not permit any Key Personnel to cease to perform those obligations that he or she has been assigned to
perform, except for reasons of illness, resignation, termination for cause or other causes outside the reasonable control of Provider, or, at Customer’s request. If Provider removes any Key Personnel, Provider promptly will propose for approval
by Customer (not to be unreasonably refused) a replacement employee who has the qualifications, expertise and knowledge required to carry out the obligations under this Agreement and the Statements of Work. Provider will be responsible for costs and
expenses for the period required to equip such replacement personnel with knowledge necessary to perform at the same level as the replaced personnel. The Project Manager will meet regularly with Customer to report on progress to Customer and
compliance with this Agreement and the Statement of Work (including compliance with service levels and uptime requirements), and to identify and resolve issues. Provider shall provide such information relating to the Services and this Agreement, and
attend such governance and relationship meetings, as Customer may reasonably request from time to time. 
 Section 21
        Miscellaneous Provisions 
  

	(1)	 Governing Law. This Agreement, including each Statement of Work, and any
non-contractual rights or obligations arising out of or in connection with them, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the laws of state of New York and the federal laws of United
States applicable therein, but without regard to conflict of laws provisions. To the extent to which it would otherwise apply, the Parties hereby expressly exclude the application of the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods
to this Agreement. 


  

	(2)	 Compliance with Laws. At all times during the Term and in the performance of its obligations under this
Agreement, each Party will comply with, and cause its personnel and subcontractors involved in the provision or receipt of the Services to comply with, all applicable Laws. 



 

	(3)	 Assignment. Each Party agrees that it may not assign this Agreement or any Statement of Work or any of
its rights or obligations under this Agreement or a Statement of Work, in the absence of the other Party’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Provider shall have the right to assign this Agreement, and all rights and
obligations hereunder, to any Affiliate of the Provider subject to prior written notice to Customer; provided, that such assignee shall remain an Affiliate of Provider, failing which Provider shall re-assign
this Agreement to another Affiliate of Provider. 


  

	(4)	 Force Majeure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Provider shall not in any circumstances
be in breach of this Agreement nor liable for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under this Agreement if such delay or failure results from events, circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control, including
strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes (with the exception of the workforce of Provider), failure of a utility service (including planned or unplanned power outages or 



  
 29 














	 	
breakdowns in power transmission) or transport, telecommunications or internet network, equipment failure, system failure, act of God or nature, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist
attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, riot, civil commotion, pandemic, malicious damage, changes to any Law or governmental order, rule, regulation or direction, fire, explosion, rain, flood, storm, lightning or
other extreme weather conditions, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or involuntary power curtailment, maintenance and repair downtime (“Force Majeure”). Upon claiming the occurrence of a Force Majeure
event, the party claiming Force Majeure will promptly provide the other Party with written notice of the event and the estimated period of delay. If a Force Majeure event results in a delay of more than forty-five (45) days, the Party not
claiming Force Majeure may, at its option, elect to terminate the affected Statement of Work by giving notice to the other Party in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party affected by an event of Force Majeure shall not be relieved of its
obligations hereunder unless it has used commercially reasonable efforts to (and shall continue to use for the duration of such Force Majeure event to): (i) recommence performance of the obligations that it has failed to perform as a result of such
Force Majeure event without delay, (ii) in the case of Provider, to the extent it cannot recommence performance, mitigate the impact of such Force Majeure event on the provision of the Services. If a Force Majeure event causes Provider to
allocate limited resources between or among Provider’s customers, Customer and its Affiliates shall not be placed in a lower priority to any other similarly affected customers of Provider. Where the provision of the Services or part thereof is
prevented or affected by a Force Majeure event, the Customer’s obligation to pay the Services Fees shall be reduced commensurate with the Services that are not performed or part performed until Provider resumes full performance of that part of
the Service in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This Section shall not limit Provider’s business continuity and disaster recovery obligations pursuant to Section 19, except to the extent that such obligations are themselves
prevented by the relevant event. 

  

	(5)	 Non-Solicitation. During the Term and ending one year following
the termination of this Agreement, each Party undertakes to the other that it shall not, without the other Party’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly; (i) solicit or encourage any person to leave the employment or other service
of the other Party or its Affiliates; or (ii) hire, on behalf of tit or its Affiliates or any other person or entity, any person who has left the employment within the one year period following the termination of that person’s employment
with the other Party or its Affiliates, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to any general, non-targeted recruitment campaign by either Party or its Affiliates. During the period commencing on the date
hereof through and ending one year following the termination of this Agreement, each Party will not, whether for its own account or for the account of any other Person, intentionally interfere with the relationship of the other Party or its
Affiliates with, or endeavor to entice away from the other Party or its Affiliates, any person who during the term of the Agreement is, or during the preceding one-year period, was a tenant, co-investor, co-developer, joint venturer or other customer of the other Party or its Affiliates. 



  
 30 














	(6)	 Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor an individual Statement of Work may be amended or modified except
in writing signed by the authorized representatives of both Parties (or in the case of a Statement of Work, by authorized representatives of both parties to such Statement of Work). No course of dealing or usage of trade by or between the Parties
shall be deemed to affect any such amendment or modification. 


  

	(7)	 Publicity. Subject to Section 11(3), neither Party will independently issue a press release or make
any other disclosure regarding this Agreement or any Statement of Work, or about the other Party or the other Party’s business generally, without the other’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. 


  

	(8)	 Relationship. The Parties are independent contractors, and nothing in the Agreement will be construed as
to be inconsistent with that relationship. Under no circumstances will any of a Party’s personnel be considered employees or agents of the other Party. Nothing in this Agreement grants either Party the right or authority to make commitments of
any kind for the other, implied or otherwise, without the other Party’s prior written agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any Statement of Work constitutes or creates, in any manner, a joint venture, agency, partnership, or formal business
organization of any kind. 


  

	(9)	 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable under applicable
Law: (i) the unenforceable portion will not affect any other provision of this Agreement; (ii) the Agreement will be construed as if the unenforceable provision was not present; and (iii) the Parties will negotiate in good faith to
replace the unenforceable provision with an enforceable provision with effect nearest to that of the provision being replaced. 


  

	(10)	 No Waiver. Failure by either Party to insist upon the performance of any term, covenant, or condition in
this Agreement, or to exercise any rights under this Agreement, will not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the future performance of any such term, covenant, or condition, or the future exercise of any such right, and the obligation of
each Party with respect to such future performance will continue in full force and effect. 


  

	(11)	 Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies of each Party under or this Agreement and each Statement of
Work are cumulative, may be exercised as often as such Party (in its absolute discretion) considers appropriate and are in addition to its rights and remedies under applicable Law. 



 

	(12)	 Notices. Any notice required to be sent or given to Provider or Customer will be sent by personal
delivery, confirmed facsimile or email, or reputable international courier service, 



  
 31 














	 	
return receipt requested, addressed to the Party at the address set out at the head of this Agreement, or such other address as a Party may notify the other from time to time in accordance with
this Section. Notice will be deemed to have been received upon physical receipt by the recipient, as evidenced by the fax confirmation or return receipt. Notices received after 5:00 p.m. local time, or on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday in the
place of receipt will be deemed to have been received at 9:00 a.m. on the next business day. 

  

	(13)	 Further Assurances. In furtherance of the provisions hereof, the Parties agree to take or cause to be
taken such further actions and to execute, deliver and file, or cause to be executed, delivered and filed, such further documents and instruments as may be required or reasonably necessary in order to fully effectuate the purposes, terms and
conditions of this Agreement. 


  

	(14)	 Representation by Counsel; Fair Negotiation. Each Party agrees that it has read and understands this
Agreement, and that it has had the opportunity to be represented by independent counsel of its choice in the negotiation of this Agreement. This Agreement will therefore be deemed to have been negotiated and prepared at the joint request, direction,
and construction of the Parties, at arms’ length and with the advice and participation of counsel, and will be interpreted in accordance with its terms without favor to either Party. 



 

	(15)	 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including its schedules and all agreed Statements of Work, is the
entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the Services, and supersedes all prior communications, representations and agreements between the Parties, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter of a Statement
of Work. The Parties acknowledge that no reliance is placed on any communication, representation or agreement made but not embodied in this Agreement and waive any right either Party may have in respect of any misrepresentation not contained in this
Agreement, unless such misrepresentation was made fraudulently. 


  

	(16)	 Signed Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, which may include
counterparts executed and delivered by emailed scan or facsimile, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which when read together shall constitute one and the same document. 



 

	(17)	 Rights of Third Parties. A person who is not a party to this Agreement shall have no rights to enforce
any of its terms. Each Party represents to the other that their respective rights to terminate, rescind or agree any amendment, variation, waiver or settlement under this Agreement are not subject to the consent of any person that is not a party to
this Agreement.

 SCHEDULE 3 

SERVICE LEVELS 
  

	1.	 Technical Support and Problem Resolution: 



1.1    Technical Support. Provider will provide Customer with Technical Support around the clock every calendar day (365x24). To facilitate
such support, Provider will provide Customer with e-mail and telephone number (including online chat with support personnel) for submission of all Support Requests to
on-call support technicians. 
 All requests for technical support will be logged using the Provider’s
centralized ticketing system to enable us to appropriately assign and track the progress requests. Staff will coordinate with requestors to complete all tasks. Customer will be informed by e-mail from the
ticketing system when requests have been assigned or status updated, or completed. 
 Root cause analysis will be performed, to understand why the problem
happened and what actions shall be performed, if possible, to prevent such from happening (or lower the probability) in the future. 
 For the purposes of
this Schedule 3, “System” shall mean the Equipment, Provider Materials and the Services. 
 1.2    Problem
Classification. The following Problem Classification Table definitions are used for classifying performance issues. 
  

			
	 Severity Level
	  	 Criteria

	Severity 1 (Critical)	  	 The whole System or significant part is non-operative or significantly impaired and cannot be
conducted without significant delay, if at all. No known work around is
 currently available.

		
	 Severity 2
 (Degraded)
	  	The System does not function as designed.
		
	 Severity 3
 (Minimal)
	  	 This group includes problems that have little or no impact

on daily business process.


 1.3    Response Expectations. Immediately upon Provider’s knowledge that the System failed to operate
in conformance with the Services Description and other specifications, Customer will classify the problem according to the Problem Classification Table, above, and Provider will assign engineers to resolve the problem as required in the Response
Expectation Table, below. 












 1.4    Response Expectation Table. The following Response Expectation Table specifies
the required response for problems based upon the Severity Level assigned by Customer. The table specifies the maximum amount of time permitted to respond. 
  

					
	 Severity Level
	  	 Criteria
	  	 Response Time

	Severity 1 (Critical)	  	The whole System or significant part is non-operative or significantly impaired and cannot be conducted without significant delay, if at all. No known work around is currently available.	  	30 minutes
			
	Severity 2 (Degraded)	  	The System does not function as designed.	  	1 hour between 9 am and 5 pm on Business Days; 2 hours otherwise
			
	Severity 3 (Minimal)	  	This group includes problems that have little or no impact on daily business process *	  	1 business day

  

	*	 The Parties agree that some Severity Level 3 problems lack commercial justification on which to expend
resources and, therefore, may never be resolved. 


 1.5    Escalation Process. All problems with a Severity Level of 1
or 2 will be escalated if a solution or plan of resolution cannot be achieved. Provider management will be made aware of issues according to the following timeframes. Escalations will occur in accordance with the following schedule: 

Severity Level 1 and 2 Problem Escalation. 

Hours 0 to 6: Provider’s onsite support and shift lead, site operations management and engineering personnel are notified and actively
working the event. 
 Hour 7: Provider’s Global Director of Equipment Operations and HQ engineering team are notified and involved in
the problem resolution. 
 Hour 12: Provider’s executive management team including the CEO are notified and involved in the problem
resolution.  













	2.	 Scheduled Maintenance: 



Provider will notify about both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance. Services may not be available during the maintenance periods. Planned Preventive
Maintenance (PM) is taking precautionary and proactive steps against unscheduled equipment downtime and other avoidable failures. The purpose of the PM is to institute scheduled maintenance and inspections so that defects can be spotted before they
evolve into something more severe. Regular preventive maintenance is critical to maintaining the reliability of the System performance and infrastructure. Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) will be used for maintenance tasks planning
and tracking. 
 Outside vendors scheduled maintenance plans that may affect System performance, will be included in Provider’s maintenance schedule,
and communicated. Provider shall be entitled to perform scheduled maintenance on the System, provided such maintenance will (i) be performed in a planned manner and consolidated maintenance works at the same time, as few as possible times per
calendar month (estimated not more often than once per week), (ii) not exceed eight (8) hours in total per maintenance execution day and (iii) where possible, be conducted at times likely to cause the least amount of disruption to the
operation of the System. 
 Provider shall be entitled to perform System shutdowns due to power price increase or participation in power saving programs, if
that makes financial sense and savings. Such System planned outages will not be considered.     
  

	3.	 Reporting and Failures to Perform: 



Promptly following the end of each month during the Term, Provider shall provide a report containing details of any Failures to Perform (as defined below) over
the preceding month, including a summary of any remedial actions taken in respect of the same as required below. The information contained within the reports shall be classified as Records, and Provider shall provide access to the same upon request
by Customer at any time during the Term. 
 In the event that (i) Provider fails to respond to any Severity 1 Problem within the response time
indicated in paragraph 1.4 above, (ii) in any calendar month, Provider fails to respond to any three or more Severity 2 or 3 Problems within the response times indicated in paragraph 1.4 above, (iii) Provider fails to escalate any Severity
1 or 2 Problem in accordance with the escalation timescales set out in paragraph 1.5 above, and/or (iv) in any calendar month, Customer experiences downtime of the technical support described in this Schedule 3 of 400 minutes or (excluding
downtime in connection with scheduled maintenance that has been agreed in advance by Customer) (each, a “Failure to Perform”), Provider shall: 
  

	 	•	 	 promptly (and in any event within fourteen (14) days) investigate, and report on the causes of, the
underlying issues which led to the Failure to Perform, including performing an appropriate root cause analysis (and provide Customer with a copy of the output of the same); 















	 	•	 	 provide regular updates to Customer regarding the status of remedial efforts being undertaken with respect to
such underlying issues; and 


  

	 	•	 	 (following the investigation and report detailed above) take appropriate preventive measures so that the
underlying issues and Failures to Perform do not recur (and provide details of the same to Customer, upon request). 


 In the event that
either Provider fails to take the above remedial actions in respect of any Failure to Perform or the same Failure to Perform is repeated despite such actions having been taken, Provider shall (at Customer’s request): 

 

	 	•	 	 make available senior Provider representatives to meet Customer representatives, to review and discuss the on-going performance of the Services; and 


  

	 	•	 	 put in place a focused recovery programme, to be agreed with Customer, setting out (further) remedial action to
be taken by Provider in respect of the Failures to Perform. Provider will ensure that senior representatives will be responsible for leading and monitoring the progress of the steps undertaken pursuant to such recovery programme.



  

	4.	 Service Level Credits: 



Starting on the Commencement Date and every six (6) months thereafter, the Parties shall agree on the target hashrate to be generated by the Equipment at
each Physical Location in respect of the following six (6) month period, taking into account expected diminution in hashrate, including diminution resulting from environmental factors and normal wear and tear (the “Performance
Commitment”). On a quarterly basis during the Term, Provider shall report on the actual hashrate generated by the Equipment at each Physical Location during the previous quarter. If the Performance Commitment is not met in respect of a
particular Physical Location across any quarter as a whole during the Term, and the relevant diagnostic reporting demonstrates that such failure resulted from a failure by Provider to perform the Services in accordance with the standards set out in
this Schedule 3, Customer will be eligible to receive a service credit in respect of each such Physical Location, as outlined in the below table: 
  

					
	 Monthly Actual Hashrate
	  	 Rating
	  	 Service Credit

	95% of the Performance Commitment or above	  	Meets or exceeds target	  	None
			
	Below 95% but above 90% of the Performance Commitment	  	Below target	  	1.25% of Service Fee in respect of the relevant Physical Location
			
	At or below 90% of the Performance Commitment	  	Significantly below target	  	2.5% of Service Fee in respect of the relevant Physical Location













 If Customer brings an action based on the same circumstances that gave rise to the payment of a service
credit, any future award of damages arising as a result of that action shall, to the extent that the award does not take such service credit into account, be reduced by the amount of such service credit.

 14.2.    Bitfury or its Affiliate(s) shall retain
the property and copyright in all documents supplied to the Customer in connection with the Contract and it shall be a condition of such supply that the contents of such documents shall not be communicated either directly or indirectly to any other

 14.3.    Bitfury’s Intellectual Property Rights in and
relating to the Equipment and to any documents supplied in connection therewith

any of its agents or contractors or any other person to do so. 
  

	15.	 CONFIDENTIALITY 



15.1.    The Customer shall keep in strict confidence all technical or commercial know-how,
specifications, inventions, processes or initiatives which are of a confidential nature and have been disclosed to the Customer by Bitfury or its agents, and any other confidential information concerning Bitfury’s business, the Equipment or any
other Bitfury products which the Customer may obtain in connection with this Contract. 
 15.2.    Each Party (the “Receiving
Party”) agrees that all non-public information furnished to it by the other Party or its Affiliates (the “Disclosing Party”), including software, pricing, financial information,
business strategies, design information, methodologies, specifications, and other commercial and technical information to which it has access under this Contract, are deemed confidential and proprietary information or trade secrets (collectively,
“Confidential Information”) of the Disclosing Party and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party shall treat the Confidential Information in a confidential manner using the same
degree of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information of a like nature, but no less than a reasonable degree of care given the




 
sensitivity of the information and the circumstances of its disclosure. Subject to Conditions 15.3 and 15.4, the Receiving Party may use and copy the Disclosing Party’s Confidential
Information only in direct furtherance of the purposes of this Contract. Except to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations under this Contract or as otherwise permitted under Condition
15.3 or 15.4, neither Party may directly or indirectly disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information other than to its employees, advisors, lenders and investors on a “need to know” basis, but only after they have been
advised of the information’s confidential and proprietary nature, and have agreed to protect same on terms no less onerous than the terms of this Condition 15. 

15.3.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Receiving Party has no obligation to preserve the confidentiality
of any information that is: 
 15.3.1. previously known, or received rightfully by the Receiving Party without any obligation to keep it
confidential; 
 15.3.2. distributed to third parties by the Disclosing Party without restriction; 

15.3.3. publicly available other than by unauthorized disclosure by the Receiving Party; or


 














 15.3.4. independently developed by the Receiving Party as evidenced by its records. 

15.4.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Party may, in its capacity as a Receiving Party, disclose Confidential
Information of the Disclosing Party: 
 15.4.1. if and to the extent required by a governmental or regulatory authority or pursuant to the
rules of a recognized stock exchange, on condition that, to the extent permitted by Law, before disclosing such Confidential Information, the Receiving Party uses commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Disclosing Party of the
required disclosure and, at the Disclosing Party’s cost and expense, cooperates with the Disclosing Party to take such steps as it desires to challenge or contest such disclosure or seek a protective order; or 

15.4.2. if the Receiving Party is required by a governmental or regulatory authority or pursuant to the rules of a recognized stock exchange
to disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (including this Contract) pursuant to applicable securities Laws, the Receiving Party will promptly notify the Disclosing Party and will fully





	 	 
cooperate and work in good faith with the Disclosing Party to determine appropriate redactions from the Confidential Information. 



 

	16.	 RESTRICTIONS 



16.1.    The Customer represents and warrants that it is not nor is any director, officer, agent, employee or Affiliate of the Customer
currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC; any EU sanctions administered, inter alia, by European External Action Service (the “EEAS”); or any UK sanctions administered by Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation
(the “OFSI”). The Customer will not directly or indirectly use the Equipment or any proceeds therefrom, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available the Equipment or such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other person
or entity, for the purpose of financing the activities of any person currently subject to any U.S, UK or EU sanctions. The Customer will not resell the Equipment to any individual or corporate subject to sanctions under any of the OFAC; EEAS; or
OFSI rules. 
  

	17.	 TERMINATION 



17.1.    Either Party may terminate the Contract and the Order if: (a) the other Party or any of its Affiliates commits a material
breach of any term of the Contract or any Order which (in the case of a breach capable of being remedied) is not remedied within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of a written request to do so by the
non-

 














 
breaching Party (it being acknowledged and agreed that a failure to pay purchase price by Customer in accordance with Condition 5 shall constitute a material breach and shall be subject to the
foregoing thirty (30) day cure period); or (b) either Party: (i) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (ii) files an application for a bankruptcy order, or an application for a bankruptcy order is made in
respect of such party; (iii) applies for or acquiesces in the appointment of any receiver, trustee or similar officer to liquidate or conserve its business or any substantial part of its assets; or (iv) commences under the Laws of any
jurisdiction any proceeding for relief under the relevant bankruptcy or insolvency Laws or successor legislation, or corresponding legislation in applicable foreign jurisdictions, involving its insolvency, reorganization, adjustment of debt,
dissolution, liquidation or other similar proceedings for the release of financially distressed debtors. 
 17.2.    Conditions 5.5, 13,
14, 15, 16, 19, 21 and any other provision of this Contract that expressly or by implication is intended to come into or continue in force on or after termination or expiry of this Contract, shall survive termination of the Contract, however
arising, and remain in full force and effect. 
 17.3.    Termination or expiry of this Contract shall not affect any rights, remedies,
obligations or liabilities of the parties that have accrued up to the date of termination or expiry, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of the




 
Contract which existed at or before the date of termination or expiry. 
  

	18.	 FORCE MAJEURE 



18.1.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Bitfury shall not in any circumstances be in breach of this Contract nor liable
for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under this Contract if such delay or failure results from events, circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control, including strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes
(with the exception of the workforce of Bitfury), failure of a utility service (including planned or unplanned power outages or breakdowns in power transmission) or transport, telecommunications or internet network, equipment failure, system
failure, act of God or nature, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, riot, civil commotion, pandemic, malicious damage, changes to any Law or governmental order,
rule, regulation or direction, fire, explosion, rain, flood, storm, lightening or other extreme weather conditions, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or voluntary and involuntary power curtailment, maintenance and repair
downtime (“Force Majeure”). For the avoidance of doubt, Bitfury shall not be responsible for any loss of or damage (whether direct or indirect) caused to Customer’s Equipment or business by Force Majeure. Upon claiming the
occurrence of a Force Majeure event, the party claiming Force Majeure will promptly provide the other Party with written notice of the event


 














 
and the estimated period of delay. If a Force Majeure event results in a delay of more than forty-five (45) days, the Party not claiming Force Majeure may, at its option, elect to terminate
the affected Order by giving notice to the other Party in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party affected by an event of Force Majeure shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder unless it has used commercially reasonable efforts to
(and shall continue to use for the duration of such Force Majeure event to): (i) recommence performance of the obligations that it has failed to perform as a result of such Force Majeure event without delay, (ii) in the case of Bitfury, to the
extent it cannot recommence performance, mitigate the impact of such Force Majeure event on the supply of Equipment. If a Force Majeure event causes Provider to allocate limited Equipment between or among Provider’s customers, Customer and its
Affiliates shall not be placed in a lower priority to any other similarly affected customers of Provider. 
  

	19.	 INDEMNIFICATION 



19.1.    Subject always to Condition 13, Provider agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Customer and its Affiliates, and its and their

legal and other professional fees) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred by an Indemnitee resulting from: 
 (a)    any
material breach by Provider or its Affiliates, including their respective




 
directors, officers, employees, agents and subcontractors (collectively, “Personnel”), of its obligations under this Contract; 

(b)    any gross negligence, criminal act, fraudulent act, fraudulent omission or willful misconduct by Provider, its Affiliates or any
Personnel;

reasonably be expected, to harm the other Party or its reputation or which would reasonably be expected to lead to unwanted or unfavourable publicity to such Party. Such actions shall include disparaging remarks, comments or statements that impugn

21.4.    Non-Solicitation. During the Term and ending one year following the termination of

the date hereof through and ending one year following the termination of this Contract, each Party will not, whether for its own account or for the account of any other Person, intentionally
interfere with the relationship of the other Party or its Affiliates with, or endeavor to entice away from the other Party or its Affiliates, any person who during the term of the relevant Order is, or during the preceding one-year period, was a tenant, co-investor, co-developer, joint venturer or other customer of the other Party or its Affiliates. 

21.5.    Non-Compete. During the term of this Contract Bitfury undertakes to Customer that it will not engage in, establish,

modified except in writing signed by the authorized representatives of both Parties (or in the case of an Order, by authorized representatives of both parties to such Order). No course of dealing or usage of trade by or between the Parties shall be
deemed to affect any such amendment or modification.

conditioned or delayed. 
 21.8.    Relationship. The Parties are independent contractors, and nothing in the Contract will be
construed as to be inconsistent with that relationship. Under no circumstances will any of a Party’s personnel be considered employees or agents of the other Party. Nothing in this Contract grants either Party the right or authority to make
commitments of any kind for the other, implied or otherwise, without the other Party’s prior written agreement. Neither this Contract nor any Order constitutes or creates, in any manner, a joint venture, agency, partnership, or formal business
organization of any kind. 
 21.9.    Severability. If one or more provisions of this Contract is held to be unenforceable under
applicable Law: (i) the unenforceable portion will not affect any other provision of this Contract; (ii) the Contract will be construed as if the


 














 
unenforceable provision was not present; and (iii) the Parties will negotiate in good faith to replace the unenforceable provision with an enforceable provision with effect nearest to that
of the provision being replaced. 
 21.10.    No Waiver. Failure by either Party to insist upon the performance of any term,
covenant, or condition in this Contract, or to exercise any rights under this Contract, will not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the future performance of any such term, covenant, or condition, or the future exercise of any such right,
and the obligation of each Party with respect to such future performance will continue in full force and effect. 

21.11.    Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies of each Party under this Contract and each Order are cumulative, may
be exercised as often as such Party (in its absolute discretion) considers appropriate and are in addition to its rights and remedies under applicable Law.

facsimile or email, or reputable international courier service, return receipt requested, addressed to the Party at the address set out at the head of this Contract, or such other address as a Party may notify the other from time to time in

to have been received at 9:00 a.m. on the next business day. 

21.13.    Further Assurances. In furtherance of the provisions hereof, the Parties agree to take or cause to be taken such further
actions and to execute, deliver and file, or cause to be executed, delivered and filed, such further documents and instruments as may be required or reasonably necessary in order to fully effectuate the purposes, terms and conditions of this
Contract.

21.15.    Entire Agreement. Without prejudice to Condition 2.4, this Contract, including its Exhibits and all agreed Orders, is the
entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the Equipment, and supersedes all prior communications, representations and agreements between the Parties, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter of an Order.
The Parties acknowledge that no reliance is placed on any communication, representation or agreement made but not embodied in this Contract and waive any right either Party may have in respect of any misrepresentation not contained in this Contract,
unless such misrepresentation was made fraudulently. 

 














 21.16.    Signed Counterparts. This Contract may be executed in any number of
counterparts, which may include counterparts executed and delivered by emailed scan or facsimile, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which when read together shall constitute one and the same document.
