Greenidge Substantially Improves Liquidity Profile Following Sale and Deleveraging Transaction

KEY DETAILS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA SALE AND DELEVERAGING TRANSACTION

In August 2023, in connection with a non-binding term sheet that the Company entered into with NYDIG in June to effect the sale and deleveraging transaction, the Company completed an electrical upgrade at its South Carolina facility increasing capacity to 44 MW, as well as the expansion of mining infrastructure to support over 8,500 additional miners. Upon completion of this expansion, and in furtherance of the broader transaction contemplated by the non-binding term sheet, on August 10, 2023, the Company and NYDIG amended the NYDIG Hosting Agreements at the South Carolina facility to increase the number of miners being hosted by Greenidge.

As a consequence of the closing of the sale and deleveraging transaction:

• The approximately $17.7 million principal amount outstanding under the Senior Secured Loan to NYDIG has been extinguished;
• The approximately $4.1 million principal amount outstanding under the Secured Promissory Note that NYDIG purchased from B. Riley has been extinguished;
• All liens, mortgages, and security interests previously securing the Senior Secured Loan and Secured Promissory Note have been terminated; and
• Overall liquidity will increase as a result of approximately $6.2 million in cash consideration, including $1.6 million of bonus payments anticipated to be received within 30 days of closing.
