**(b) Name of Issuer:**
Core Scientific, Inc.

**(c) Address of Issuer's Principal Executive Offices:**
838 WALKER ROAD, SUITE 21-2105, DOVER, DE, 19904

**Item 4. Purpose of Transaction**

The reporting persons acquired the Common Stock for investment purposes based on their belief that the Common Stock, when purchased, was undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.  The reporting persons will routinely monitor the Issuer regarding a wide variety of factors that affect their investment considerations, including, current and anticipated future trading prices of the Common Stock and other securities, the Issuer's operations, assets, prospects, financial position, and business development, Issuer's management, Issuer-related competitive and strategic matters, general economic, financial market and industry conditions, and other investment considerations. Depending on their evaluation of various factors, the reporting persons may take such actions regarding their holdings of the Issuer's securities as they deem appropriate in light of circumstances existing from time to time. Such actions may include purchasing additional Common Stock in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions with third parties or otherwise, and selling at any time, in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions with third parties or otherwise, all or part of the Common Stock that they now own or hereafter acquire. The reporting persons also may from time to time enter into or unwind hedging or other derivative transactions with respect to the Common Stock or pledge their interests in the Common Stock to obtain liquidity. In addition, from time to time the reporting persons and their representatives and advisers may communicate with other stockholders, industry participants and other interested parties about the Issuer.

The reporting persons have no present plan or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.  However, the reporting persons may recommend action to the Issuer's management, board of directors and stockholders. Any such actions could involve one or more of the events referred to in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, including, potentially, one or more mergers, consolidations, sales or acquisitions of assets, changes in control, issuances, purchases, dispositions or pledges of securities or other changes in capitalization.
