| F. | The Company desires to appoint Canary to serve as Escrow Agent of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds until the Escrow Release Conditions are satisfied or waived, as applicable and as permitted under the SRA, at which time, upon receipt of the Escrow Release Certification (as defined herein), title to the Escrowed INJ Proceeds shall be deemed transferred to the Company and management of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds from that point forward, will be governed by the terms of the Asset Management Agreement entered into between the Company and Canary as of September [4], 2025 (the “Canary Asset Management Agreement”) with respect to the Asset Manager Allocation (as defined in the Canary Asset Management Agreement) and the remainder to be governed by the terms of the Asset Management Agreement among the Company and Monarq, dated as of September [4], 2025. Upon the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions, the Escrow Agent shall instruct Bitgo to transfer ownership of the Escrow Account to the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Terms and Conditions

1.1. Appointment of and Acceptance by Escrow Agent. The Company hereby appoints the Escrow Agent to serve as Escrow Agent of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds for the purposes set forth herein, and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform its duties as provided herein.

1.2. Deposits into Escrow. Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Company shall instruct the Purchasers to deliver the Escrowed INJ Proceeds to the Escrow Account at the wallet address as provided by the Escrow Agent.

1.3. Staking of the Escrow Funds. The Company acknowledges that the Escrowed INJ Proceeds shall be committed to the proof of stake validation process (“Stake” or “Staking”) of the Injective blockchain and its underlying code and smart contracts (the “Injective Protocol”). The Company further directs the Escrow Agent to Stake the Escrowed INJ Proceeds. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Escrow Agent is not responsible for the results of the Staking activities of the Escrow Account (including without limitation slashing or other losses) and such Staking activities are subject to Section 1.4(d), 2.2, Section 2.7, and Section 3.

1.4. Disbursements of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds. The Escrowed INJ Proceeds shall be released from escrow by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the following terms:

(a) Satisfaction of Escrow Release Conditions. Upon (i) the satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions, as applicable and as permitted under the SRA; and (ii) receipt of the instructions from the Subscription Receipt Agent in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Escrow Release Certification”), Escrow Agent shall instruct Bitgo to transfer ownership of the Escrow Account to the Company.

(b) Stub Period. During the Stub Period title to the Escrowed INJ Proceeds will be deemed to be transferred to the Company.

(c) Return of Escrowed INJ Proceeds. In the event that the SPA and the SRA are terminated in accordance with their respective terms, the Escrowed INJ Proceeds shall be returned to the Purchasers pursuant to the terms of the SPA. In such case, upon the receipt of written instructions from the Subscription Receipt Agent, the Escrow Agent shall promptly (subject to the technical capabilities of the Injective Protocol) return the Escrowed INJ Proceeds paid by each such Purchaser to such Purchaser.

2

(d) Transfer of Staking Rewards. Upon the receipt of the Escrow Release Certification, the Escrow Agent shall transfer to the respective Purchasers their pro-rata portion of any accrued Staking rewards earned on the Escrowed INJ Proceeds for the period prior to the Escrow Agent’s receipt of the Escrow Release Certification.

(e) Free and Clear of Claims. The Escrowed INJ Proceeds returned to each Purchaser shall be free and clear of any and all claims of the Escrow Agent.

2. Provisions as to the Escrow Agent

2.1. Limited Duties of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth in this Escrow Agreement. Under no circumstance will the Escrow Agent be deemed to be a fiduciary to any party or any other person under this Escrow Agreement. This Escrow Agreement expressly and exclusively sets forth the duties of the Escrow Agent with respect to any and all matters pertinent hereto and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Escrow Agreement against the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by, deemed to have knowledge of, or have any obligation to determine, make inquiry into or consider, any term or provision of any agreement between the Company, any Purchaser and/or any other third party or as to which the escrow relationship created by this Escrow Agreement relates, including without limitation the SPA or any other documents referenced in this Escrow Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Escrow Agreement to the contrary, the Escrow Agent acknowledges and agrees that the Subscription Receipt Agreement contemplates certain responsibilities, communications and instructions as between the Subscription Receipt Agent and the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall carry out its obligations under this Escrow Agreement in a manner that is consistent with the purpose and intent of the Subscription Receipt Agreement. In furtherance thereof, the Escrow Agent covenants to comply with the directions given by the Subscription Receipt Agent and the notices provided by the Subscription Receipt Agent as contemplated by the terms of this Escrow Agreement.

2.2. Limitations on Liability of Escrow Agent.

(a) In performing its duties under this Escrow Agreement, or upon the claimed failure to perform its duties, the Escrow Agent shall have no liability except for the Escrow Agent’s breach of this Escrow Agreement and the Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence, or noncompliance with applicable law. In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action in which such damages are sought; and the Escrow Agent shall be liable only for actual, direct damages that are solely attributable to the Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct, gross negligence, breach of this Escrow Agreement, or noncompliance with applicable law.

3

(b) Except in cases of the Escrow Agent’s breach of this Escrow Agreement or the Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence, or noncompliance with applicable law, the Escrow Agent shall be fully protected (i) in acting in reliance upon any certificate, statement, request, notice, advice, instruction, direction, other agreement or instrument or signature reasonably and in good faith provided by the Subscription Receipt Agent with respect to such party’s information and believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine; (ii) in assuming that any person purporting to give the Escrow Agent any of the foregoing in connection with either this Escrow Agreement or the Escrow Agent’s duties has been duly authorized to do so; and (iii) in acting or failing to act if such act or failure to act was completed or omitted in good faith in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement on the advice of outside counsel retained by the Escrow Agent.

(c) The Escrow Agent shall have no liability with respect to the transfer or distribution of any digital assets effected by the Escrow Agent pursuant to transfer instructions provided to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement, except as a result of the Escrow Agent’s willful misconduct, gross negligence, breach of this Escrow Agreement, or noncompliance with applicable law. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon all wallet information provided to the Escrow Agent by the applicable authorized representative of the Company or the Subscription Receipt Agent as set forth on Exhibit C. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to verify or otherwise confirm any written transfer instructions except as set forth in Section 2.3 below, but it may do so in its discretion on any occasion without incurring any liability to any party for failing to do so on any other occasion. The Escrow Agent shall process all transfers based on wallet address information rather than the names of the intended recipient of the digital assets, even if such addresses pertain to a recipient other than the recipient identified in the transfer instructions. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to detect any such inconsistencies and shall resolve any such inconsistencies by using the wallet information. In connection with any payments that the Escrow Agent is instructed to make, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of (i) the Company, the Purchasers, and the Subscription Receipt Agent or other person providing such instructions, including without limitation errors as to the amount, or wallet address; or (ii) any other person or entity, any transmission or communications facility, any funds transfer system, any receiver or receiving depository financial institution, and no such person or entity shall be deemed to be an agent of the Escrow Agent. Any transfers of digital assets made by the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Escrow Agreement will be made subject to and in accordance with the Escrow Agent’s usual and ordinary transfer procedures in effect from time to time.

(d) No provision of this Escrow Agreement shall require the Escrow Agent to risk or advance its own funds or digital assets or otherwise incur any financial liability or potential financial liability in the performance of its duties or the exercise of its rights under this Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal action or to commence any proceedings in connection with this Escrow Agreement or any property held hereunder or to appear in, prosecute or defend in any such legal action or proceedings.

4

2.3. Security Procedure for Digital Asset Transfers. The Escrow Agent shall confirm each digital asset transfer instruction received in the name of a party by telephone call-back or electronic meeting to a person specified on Exhibit C at the telephone number or email specified for such authorized person on Exhibit C. The person confirming the digital asset transfer instruction shall be a person other than the person from whom the funds transfer instruction was received, unless only one person is designated on Exhibit C. Once delivered to the Escrow Agent, Exhibit C may be revised or rescinded only by a writing signed by an authorized representative of the applicable party. Such revisions or rescissions shall be effective only after actual receipt and following such period of time as may be necessary to afford the Escrow Agent a reasonable opportunity to act on it. If a revised Exhibit C or a rescission of an existing Exhibit C is delivered to the Escrow Agent by an entity that is a successor-in-interest to such party, such document shall be accompanied by additional documentation satisfactory to the Escrow Agent showing that such entity has succeeded to the rights and responsibilities of the applicable authorized representative of a party under this Escrow Agreement. The Company understands that the Escrow Agent’s inability to receive or confirm digital asset transfer instructions pursuant to the above security procedure may result in a delay in accomplishing such transfer, and agree that the Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any loss caused by any such delay.

2.4. No Duty to Notify. The Escrow Agent shall in no way be responsible for nor shall it be its duty to notify any party hereto or any other party interested in this Escrow Agreement of any payment required or maturity occurring under this Escrow Agreement or under the terms of any instrument deposited therewith unless such notice is explicitly provided for in this Escrow Agreement.

2.5. Other Relationships. The Escrow Agent may execute any of its powers and perform any of its duties hereunder directly or through affiliates or agents. The Escrow Agent and its affiliates, and any of their respective directors, officers or employees may become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which any of the other parties hereto may be interested and may contract and lend money to any such party and otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not escrow agent under this Escrow Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Escrow Agent or its affiliates from acting in any other capacity for any such party.

2.6. Disputes. In the event of any disagreement or doubt between the Company and any third party resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the matters covered by this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent may tender into the registry or custody of any court having jurisdiction, all funds, equity and property held under this Escrow Agreement as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, and the Escrow Agent shall have the right to take such other legal action as may be appropriate or necessary, in the sole discretion of the Escrow Agent. Upon such tender, the Company agrees that the Escrow Agent shall be discharged from all further duties under this Escrow Agreement, unless the tender was not in compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.6 or was as a result of willful misconduct, gross negligence, breach of this Escrow Agreement, or noncompliance with applicable law.

2.7. Indemnification. The Company agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and each of the Escrow Agent’s officers, directors, agents and employees (the “Escrow Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses and costs (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) of every nature whatsoever (collectively, “Escrow Agent Losses”) which any such Escrow Indemnified Party may incur and which arise directly or indirectly from this Escrow Agreement or which arise directly or indirectly by virtue of the Escrow Agent’s undertaking to serve as the Escrow Agent hereunder; provided, however, that no Escrow Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnity with respect to Escrow Agent Losses that have been finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by such Escrow Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct, breach of this Escrow Agreement, or noncompliance with applicable law. The Escrow Agent agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its officers, directors, agents and employees (the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses and costs (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) of every nature whatsoever (collectively, “Company Losses”) which any such Company Indemnified Party may incur and which arise directly or indirectly from an Escrow Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct, breach of this Escrow Agreement, or noncompliance with applicable law. The provisions of this section shall survive the termination of this Escrow Agreement and any resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.

5

2.8. Resignation; Removal.

(a) The Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties and obligations at any time under this Escrow Agreement by providing written notice to the Company. Such resignation shall be effective on the date set forth in such written notice, which shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days after such written notice has been furnished; provided, however, that such resignation shall not be effective until a successor escrow agent is appointed in accordance with this Section 2.8 accepts such appointment in accordance with Section 2.8(c) below and the Escrowed INJ Proceeds have been delivered to an account or accounts designated by the successor escrow agent in a manner reasonably acceptable to the successor escrow agent and the Company, or until another disposition of the subject matter has been agreed upon by the parties. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall have no further obligation except to hold the Escrowed INJ Proceeds as depository and cooperate reasonably in the transfer of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds to a successor escrow agent. The Company shall promptly appoint a successor escrow agent. The Escrow Agent shall refrain from taking any action until it receives a written direction from the Company designating the successor escrow agent. However, in the event no successor escrow agent has been appointed on or prior to the date such resignation is to become effective as specified in the notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Company, appoint a successor that is reasonably acceptable to the Company, provided that such successor accepts such appointment and delivery of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds in accordance with this Section 2.8(a) and Section 2.8(c) below and is reasonably acceptable to the Company.

(b) The Company shall have the right to terminate the appointment of the Escrow Agent upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Escrow Agent specifying the date upon which such termination shall take effect. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall have no further obligation except to hold the Escrowed INJ Proceeds as depository and cooperate reasonably in the transfer of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds to a successor escrow agent. The Escrow Agent shall refrain from taking any action until it receives a written notice from the Company designating the successor escrow agent. However, in the event no successor escrow agent has been appointed on or prior to the date such termination is to become effective, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to tender into the custody of any court of competent jurisdiction all funds, equity and other property then held by the Escrow Agent hereunder and the Escrow Agent shall thereupon be relieved of all further duties and obligations under this Escrow Agreement.

(c) The successor escrow agent appointed by the Company shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Escrow Agent and the other parties an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall deliver all of the then- remaining balance of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds, less any fees and expenses then incurred by and unpaid to the Escrow Agent, to such successor escrow agent in accordance with the written notice of the Company and upon receipt of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds, the successor escrow agent shall be bound by all of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement.

6

2.9. Compensation of the Escrow Agent. The parties agree that upon the execution of this Escrow Agreement, the Company will pay the Escrow Agent the amount of custody charges incurred in the Escrow Account at BitGo during the period prior to the transfer of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds pursuant to Section 1.4 and Section 2.3.

3. Tax Matters

3.1. Delivery of IRS Forms. The Escrow Agent shall have the right to request from any party to this Escrow Agreement, or any other person or entity entitled to payment hereunder, a Form W-9 or Form W-8Ben (or, in each case, any successor form), as applicable, and any additional forms, documentation or other information as may be reasonably necessary for the Escrow Agent to satisfy its reporting and withholding obligations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and applicable state and local income tax law. To the extent any such forms to be delivered under this Section 3.1 are not provided, following a reasonable request by the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Section 3.1, by the time the related payment is required to be made or are determined by the Escrow Agent to be incomplete and/or inaccurate in any respect, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to withhold (without liability) a portion of any interest or other income earned on the investment of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds or on any such payments hereunder to the extent withholding is required under Chapters 3, 4, or 61 of the Code, and shall have no obligation to gross up any such payment. The Escrow Agent shall have the sole right to make the determination as to which payments hereunder are “reportable payments” or “withholdable payments” under the Code.

3.2. Tax Obligations of the Company. The Company agrees that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement, the owner of the digital assets held in the Escrow Account prior to the delivery of the Escrow Release Certification by the Subscription Receipt Agent is the respective Purchasers (including any accrued Staking rewards), and thereafter, the owner of the digital assets held in the Escrow Account is the Company for all tax purposes (including any accrued Staking rewards accrued after the delivery of the Escrow Release Certification) and the Escrow Agent shall report to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), as of each calendar year-end, all income earned from the investment of any sum held in the Escrow Account as the income of the Purchasers or the Company, as the case may be, for purposes of the Code and applicable state and local income tax law. The Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to report all interest and other income earned (including Staking rewards) on the Escrowed INJ Proceeds in accordance with the IRS Form W-9 or W-8BEN (or, in each case, any successor form) provided to the Escrow Agent by the Company or the Purchasers, as the case may be. The Company covenants that it shall report, and cause the affected Purchasers to report, all interest or other income (including Staking rewards), if any, that is earned on the Escrowed INJ Proceeds as income of the Company or such affected Purchasers in the taxable year or years in which such income is properly includable in the gross income of the relevant party and shall pay any and all taxes attributable thereto.

7

3.3. Delivery of Form 1099. The Escrow Agent shall timely furnish (if applicable) to the relevant parties, the IRS, and any other taxing authority, an IRS Form 1099 (and any other applicable form) showing the income earned from the Escrow Account for each tax year. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein provided, except for the delivery of IRS Form 1099, the Escrow Agent shall have no duty to prepare or file any Federal or state tax report or return (including, without limitation IRS Forms 1099-B) with respect to any funds or equity held pursuant to this Escrow Agreement or any income earned thereon other than such information reports as the Escrow Agent is required to prepare and file as required by applicable law. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility to report any payments from the Escrowed INJ Proceeds other than the interest earned on the Escrowed INJ Proceeds as set forth in this Section 3.

3.4. Tax Indemnities. The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any tax, late payment, interest, penalty or other cost or expense that may be assessed against the Escrow Agent on or with respect to the digital assets held under this Escrow Agreement or any earnings or interest thereon, unless such tax, late payment, interest, penalty or other cost or expense was finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been directly caused by the gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct, breach of this Escrow Agreement, or noncompliance with applicable law of the Escrow Agent. The indemnification provided in this section is in addition to the indemnification provided in Section

2.8 and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the termination of this Escrow Agreement.

4. Miscellaneous

4.1. Disbursements. The Escrow Agent shall make no disbursement, investment or other use of the Escrowed INJ Proceeds except as provided by this Escrow Agreement and the duly issued instructions of the Subscription Receipt Agent.

4.2. Accounting. The Escrow Agent shall provide monthly reports of transactions and holdings to the Company as of the end of each month, at the address provided by the Company in Section 4.3 or Schedule 1.
