Miners</U>. All Bitcoin miners owned or leased by Parent and its Subsidiaries (&ldquo;<U>Parent Miners</U>&rdquo;) are owned or
rightfully possessed by, operated by and under the control of Parent and its Subsidiaries. In the last two years, there has been no
failure, breakdown or continued substandard performance of any Parent Miners that has caused a material disruption or interruption
in or to the use of the Parent Miners or the related operation of the business of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. Except as would
not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect, the Parent Miners are
generally maintained and in good working condition to perform all computing, information technology and data processing operations
necessary for the operations of Parent and its Subsidiaries. Parent and its Subsidiaries have taken commercially reasonable steps
to: (a) protect the Parent Miners from contaminants, hacks and other malicious external or internal threats; (b) ensure continuity
of operations with adequate energy supply and minimal uptime required; and (c) provide for the remote-site back-up of data and
information critical to Parent and its Subsidiaries.</P>
