2.DEFINITIONS
For the purposes of each Collar Loan, the following definitions apply:
“ApplicableLTV”meanstheLTVasattheResetTimeontheTradeDateor,foreachsubsequentRollingPeriod,as at the Reset Time on the Reset Date on which that Rolling Period begins, as specified in the Reset Confirmation for that Rolling Period. The Applicable LTV is the struck figure from which the Floor Price for that Rolling Period is derived. It is recorded once and does not change during the Rolling Period. It is to be distinguished from the LTV, which moves throughout the Rolling Period as the price of the Collateral moves.
“Ceiling Percentage” means the Ceiling Price expressed as a percentage of the Reference Price. It is a derived figureandisnotrequiredtoberecordedintheResetConfirmation.TheCeilingPercentageissolvedagainstthe Interest Rate for the relevant Rolling Period and is expected to change at each Reset.
“Ceiling Price” means for each Rolling Period, the price per unit of Collateral specified as the Ceiling Price in the Reset Confirmation for that Rolling Period, being an amount equal to the Reference Price multiplied by the Ceiling Percentage. The Ceiling Price, not the Ceiling Percentage, is the figure recorded.
“Collar” means the combination, in respect of each Rolling Period, of the Floor Price and the Ceiling Price, together with any Hedge Transaction entered into by Lender in respect of them.
“Collar Collateral Account” means the segregated wallet or account at the Depository designated as such by Lender and notified to Borrower. All references in the Agreement to the “Depository Account” are, in respect of each Collar Loan, references to the Collar Collateral Account, and the definition of “Depository Account” in Section3oftheAgreementisamendedaccordinglysothattheaccountissegregatedandnotcommingled,save in respect of units used under Section 10.2 of this Annex.
“Collar Settlement Value” means in respect of each unit of Collateral and any date of determination, an amount equal to max(Floor Price, min(Reference Price, Ceiling Price)); and, in respect of the Collateral as a whole, that amount multiplied by the number of Pledged Units.
“Coverage”meansatanytime,theaggregatevalueofthePledgedUnitsattheFloorPricethenineffect,expressed as a percentage of the Total Loan Amount. Coverage of 100% or more means that the Pledged Units, valued at the Floor Price, are sufficient to discharge the Total Loan Amount in full. Interest accruing during a Rolling Period is not taken into account in Coverage, in the LTV or in the Applicable LTV; it becomes payable on the Reset Date under Section 7.2 of this Annex. The exclusion of interest from Coverage and from the LTV is for measurement purposes only: accrued and unpaid interest forms part of the Secured Obligations, is secured by the Collateral and is recoverable from the Collateral under Sections 6.3 and 8 of this Annex.
“CurePeriod”meanstheperiodspecifiedassuchintheResetConfirmationfortherelevantRollingPeriodor,where none is specified, twenty-four (24) hours, in each case running from the Election Deadline on the relevant ResetDate,withinwhichBorrower,havingelectedbytheElectionDeadlinetorollunderSection5.5(b)(iii)ofthis Annex,maydeliveradditionalCollateralormakepaymentsoastoeliminatetheFloorShortfall.TheCurePeriod applies to delivery and payment only, and not to the election itself.
“Election Deadline” means the time on each Reset Date specified as such in the Reset Confirmation, being the latest time by which Borrower may accept the terms recorded in that Reset Confirmation and make its elections under this Annex, in each case by notice to Lender under Section 4.3(c) of this Annex and without any requirement of signature, subject to Lender's discretion to permit a later time under Section 5.7(b) of this Annex.
“Equivalent Units” means units of the same Digital Asset, and of the same number, as the Pledged Units in question.UnitsofaDigitalAssetarefungibleforthispurpose,andLenderisnotobligedtoredelivertheidentical units originally delivered by Borrower.
“Event of Default” means any event or circumstance specified in Section 12.1 of the Agreement, as amended by Section 9.1 of this Annex, upon the occurrence of which Borrower is stated to be in default.
“Excess Appreciation” means in respect of any Rolling Period, an amount equal to (a) the Reference Price on the relevantResetDateminustheCeilingPriceforthatRollingPeriod,multipliedby(b)thenumberofPledgedUnits,
ChainFi,Inc.d/b/aArchLending·Confidential·AnnexA-CollarLoanAnnextotheMasterLoanAgreement2

DocID:dad2598bb2c97cc0141b180f10bf994564f945fb
where such amount is positive; and zero in all other cases.
“Floor Percentage” means the Floor Price expressed as a percentage of the Reference Price. It is a derived figure and is not required to be recorded in the Reset Confirmation. On the Trade Date, and at each Reset, the Floor Percentage is solved so that Coverage is approximately 100% for the Rolling Period then beginning, taking account of any additional Collateral delivered under Section 5.5(b)(iii) and any adjustment to the Total Loan Amount under Section 5.3 of this Annex, and accordingly approximates the Applicable LTV for that Rolling Period. The Floor Price is a quoted commercial figure and may sit marginally above or below the level at which Coverage is exactly 100%; Section 5.5(a) of this Annex applies to any such difference and any resulting shortfall is borne by Lender.
“Floor Price” means for each Rolling Period, the price per unit of Collateral specified as the Floor Price in the Reset Confirmation for that Rolling Period, being an amount equal to the Reference Price multiplied by the Floor Percentage. The Floor Price, not the Floor Percentage, is the figure recorded.
“Floor Shortfall” means at any time, the amount by which the Total Loan Amount exceeds the aggregate Collateral Market Value of the Pledged Units. A Floor Shortfall will ordinarily arise where the Reference Price is below the Floor Price, and is borne by Lender in accordance with Sections 3.2(d) and 5.5(f) of this Annex.
“Hedge Transaction” means any option, forward, swap or other derivative transaction, or any purchase or sale of Digital Assets, entered into by Lender with a third party for the purpose of hedging, funding or offsetting Lender's exposure under the Collar.
“Interest Rate” means in respect of each Rolling Period, the rate per annum specified as such in the Reset Confirmation for that Rolling Period.
“LTV” means at any time, the Total Loan Amount expressed as a percentage of the aggregate Collateral Market ValueofthePledgedUnitsatthattime.TheLTVmovescontinuouslywiththepriceoftheCollateralthroughout eachRollingPeriod.Thedefinitionof“LTV”inSection3oftheAgreementapplies,savethatforeachCollarLoan
(a) the numerator is the Total Loan Amount and excludes interest accruing during the current Rolling Period, which is dealt with under Section 7.2 of this Annex, and (b) the LTV has no operative consequence during a Rolling Period: it triggers no margin call, no Trigger Event, no cure obligation and no right of Lender to liquidate, at any level, as provided in Sections 5.2 and 6 of this Annex.
“Non-Recourse Carve-Outs” means the matters set out in Section 3.3 of this Annex.
“PledgedUnits”meansthenumberofunitsofCollateralspecifiedassuchintheResetConfirmation,beingtheunits heldintheCollarCollateralAccountinsupportoftheCollarLoan.UnitsofCollateralheldforBorrowerotherwise than in the Collar Collateral Account are not Pledged Units and are not subject to the Collar.
“ReferencePrice”meansthemarketvalueofoneunitofCollateral,beingthelasttradepriceperunitdeterminedby Lender in accordance with Section 7 of the Agreement, as at the Reset Time on the relevant Reset Date (or, in the case of the initial Rolling Period, as at the Reset Time on the Trade Date, subject to re-determination on the Disbursement Date under Section 4.5 of this Annex).
“Repayment Period” means in respect of each Collar Loan, the Rolling Period then in effect. The definition of “RepaymentPeriod”inSection3oftheAgreement(whichisdeterminedbyreferencetothenumberofscheduled payments in the Disclosure Statement) does not apply to any Collar Loan.
“Reset” means the re-striking of the Floor Price, the Ceiling Price and the Interest Rate on a Reset Date in accordance with Section 5 of this Annex.
“Reset Confirmation” means the record of the terms of a Rolling Period set out in Schedule 1 to this Annex, completed and issued by Lender for that Rolling Period. Schedule 1 as executed with this Annex is the Reset Confirmation for the initial Rolling Period. For each subsequent Rolling Period, Lender completes and issues a restated Schedule 1, which forms part of this Annex for that Rolling Period on Borrower's acceptance of it under Section 4.3(c) of this Annex. Borrower is not required to execute or countersign any Reset Confirmation, and no term sheet is entered into for any Rolling Period. Terms communicated by Lender at or before a Reset are indicative only until recorded in a Reset Confirmation.

“ResetDate”meansthelastdayofeachRollingPeriod,beingthematuritydateofthatRollingPeriod,andeachdate on which a Collar Loan is otherwise re-struck by agreement of the parties.
“Reset Time” means the time on each Reset Date specified as such in the Reset Confirmation.
“Rolling Period” means each period of approximately 30 consecutive calendar days beginning on (and including) theDisbursementDate,inthecaseoftheinitialRollingPeriod,orthedayimmediatelyfollowingaResetDate,in the case of each subsequent Rolling Period; the last day of each such period being the Reset Date for that Rolling Period, subject to extension under Section 9.3 of this Annex, which is not an Event of Default.
“Secured Obligations” means at any time, the aggregate of the Total Loan Amount and all accrued and unpaid interest, late payment fees payable under Section 7.3 of this Annex, Excess Appreciation and Collection Costs then outstanding in respect of the Collar Loan; excluding any Excess Appreciation arising on the date on which the Collar Loan is settled, which is given effect through the cap contained in the definition of Collar Settlement Value and is not additionally recoverable.
“Total Loan Amount” means in respect of each Collar Loan, the aggregate principal amount outstanding from time to time, as increased by any amount added under Section 5.3(c) or Section 5.5(b)(iii) of this Annex and as recorded in the Reset Confirmation then in effect and in Lender's internal records under Section 5.11 of the Agreement. The definition of “Total Loan Amount” in Section 3 of the Agreement (which is determined by reference to the Disclosure Statement) does not apply to any Collar Loan.
“Trade Date” means the date of this Annex.
The collar economics are set in Schedule 1, not here. The Floor Price, Ceiling Price, Applicable LTV, Interest Rate, ReferencePrice,ResetTimeandElectionDeadlinearedefinedinthisAnnexbyreferenceonly.Theirvaluesareset,and re-set, exclusively in the Reset Confirmation at Schedule 1, which Lender completes and issues for each Rolling Period. Nothing in this Annex fixes any of them. Figures that do not vary by Rolling Period are set in this Annex and are not Reset Confirmation variables. These include the 30/360 interest convention in Section 7.1, the late payment fee in Section 7.3, the judgment threshold in Section 9.1A(d), the arbitration threshold in Section 11.3(b) and the notice and cure periods specifiedin Sections 4 to 9.
3.NON-RECOURSEOBLIGATIONS
3.1
Full recourse provisions disapplied. In respect of each Collar Loan, the following provisions of the Agreement are hereby deleted and of no force or effect: (a) Section 9.5 (Full Recourse Obligations); (b) Section 9.6 (Security Scope),totheextentitpurportstosecureobligationsofBorrowertoLenderoritsaffiliatesotherthantheCollarLoan and obligations arising under this Annex, the Agreement and the Reset Confirmations; and (c) Section 9.11 (Waiver ofNoticesandDefenses)initsentirety,includingeachbulletprovidingthatBorrower'sindebtednessis“absoluteand unconditional” irrespective of any impairment or non-perfection of Collateral, any manner of sale, disposition or application of proceeds, any defense, set-off or counterclaim, or any other circumstance operating as a legal or equitable discharge. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement to the contrary, including Section 1 (Agreement to Pay), each Collar Loan is a non-recourse obligation of Borrower, subject only to Section 3.3 of this Annex.
3.2
Sole recourse. Lender's sole and exclusive recourse for the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations is to the Pledged Units, Equivalent Units and their proceeds. The security interest granted under Section 9.1 of the Agreement, as it relates to each Collar Loan, extends only to the Pledged Units and the Collar Collateral Account, and not to any other Digital Asset, Investment Property or asset of Borrower, whether held with the Depository or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, and except in respect of the Non-Recourse Carve-Outs:
(a)
Borrower shall have no personal or corporate liability for the payment of any Collar Loan beyond the Pledged Units;
(b)
Lender shall not seek, obtain or enforce any judgment for any deficiency, shortfall or unsatisfied balance against Borrower or any of its affiliates, officers, directors or shareholders, and expressly waives any right to do so;

(d)
if the Collar Settlement Value of the Pledged Units, once applied in accordance with Section 8 of this Annex, is less than the Secured Obligations, the deficiency shall be borne absolutely by Lender and Borrower's obligations shall be deemed discharged and satisfied in full, and such deemed discharge shall constitute “full payment of all indebtedness” for the purposes of Section 15 of the Agreement and shall terminate the security interest notwithstanding Section 9.8 of the Agreement.
3.3
Non-Recourse Carve-Outs. Section 3.2 of this Annex does not limit Borrower's liability, which shall remain full recourse, in respect of: (a) fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation by Borrower; (b) misappropriation, conversion or unauthorized transfer, encumbrance or disposition of the Collateral by Borrower; (c) the creation or existence of any lien, security interest or encumbrance over the Collateral other than in favor of Lender;(d)anybreachofSection10.3ofthisAnnex(commercialpurposerepresentations)orofSection17.2(a),(b) or (e) of the Agreement (title to, and non-transfer of, the Collateral); and (e) Collection Costs directly attributable to any of the foregoing. The carve-outs are exhaustive. For the avoidance of doubt, breach of any other provision of Section 17 of the Agreement, including the compliance-with-law and tax covenants, does not restore recourse. Where a representation is replaced or modified by Section 10.3 of this Annex, paragraph (d) applies to the representation as so replaced or modified.
3.4

Excess Appreciation payable in cash under Section 5.3(b) of this Annex and interest payable incashunderSection7.2ofthisAnnexremainnon-recourse.Lender'sremedyfornon-paymentislimitedtothesale or delivery of Pledged Units under Section 5.3(a) or Section 6.3(a), (d) or (e) of this Annex, together with the acceleration and possession rights preserved by Section 9.2 of this Annex, and Borrower's failure to pay is an Event of Default under Section 9.1(b) of this Annex on the terms there set out. These items are non-recourse by design, and are not Non-Recourse Carve-Outs.
3.5
Set-off limited. Section 12.5 of the Agreement (Right of Set-off) applies to each Collar Loan only in respect of the Pledged Units and the Collar Collateral Account, and Lender shall not set off against any other deposit, account, collateralorassetofBorrowerheldbyLenderoranyofitsaffiliates,exceptinrespectoftheNon-Recourse Carve-Outs.

4.TERM;30-DAYROLLINGSTRUCTURE;RESETCONFIRMATIONS
4.1
Term. Notwithstanding Section 5.1 of the Agreement (Loan Term), the term of each Collar Loan is one Rolling Period, being the period specified as such in the Reset Confirmation and ordinarily of approximately 30 calendar days, subject to successive automatic extension in accordance with Section 4.2 of this Annex. The following provisions of the Agreement do not apply to any Collar Loan and are disapplied in their entirety: Section 5.1 (Loan Term); Section 5.2 (Interest Rate), the Interest Rate being re-struck at each Reset under Section 5.6 of this Annex; Section 5.3 (Payment Methods), including the AutoPay, ACH and Interest Reserve options, which are replaced by Section 7 of this Annex; Section 5.4 (Repayment Period; Payments; Late Payment), including the amortized,interest-only and deferred interest payment structures and the balloon payment construct; the second sentence of Section 10 (Right to Prepay), which recalculates interest by reference to the original duration of the Loan; and Section 14 (Optional Rollover).
4.2
Automatic roll; non-renewal. Subject to Section 4.4 of this Annex, each Collar Loan shall automatically continue for a further Rolling Period on the terms of the Reset Confirmation delivered under Section 4.3, unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal to the other. Such notice may be given: (a) by either party, at any time up to the Reset Time on the relevant Reset Date; or (b) by Borrower, at any time up to the Election Deadline on theResetDate,afterreceiptoftheResetConfirmationdeliveredunderSection4.3(b)ofthisAnnex,sothatBorrower may decline to roll with knowledge of the actual Floor Price, Ceiling Price and Interest Rate. Each Collar Loan is accordingly of open term, and no maximum number of Rolling Periods applies.

4.3
Reset procedure; Reset Confirmation. Because the Reference Price is determined at the Reset Time on the Reset Date, the following sequence applies at each Reset. No term sheet is signed for any Rolling Period; the terms of each Rolling Period are recorded in Schedule 1 as the Reset Confirmation for that Rolling Period:
(a)
notlaterthanone(1)BusinessDaypriortoeachResetDate,BorrowershallnotifyLenderwhetheritintends to close out or to roll and, if to roll, of its election under Section 5.6 of this Annex, being either the Ceiling Price it is prepared to accept or its target Interest Rate. Failing such notification, the election applicable to the Rolling Period then ending shall be deemed to continue;
(b)
promptly following the Reset Time on the Reset Date, Lender shall quote the Floor Price, Ceiling Price and Interest Rate for the next Rolling Period and deliver to Borrower the Reset Confirmation, being Schedule 1 completed and restated for that Rolling Period and recording the actual Reference Price, Floor Price, Ceiling Price, Interest Rate, Total Loan Amount, outstanding principal balance, Secured Obligations, Pledged Units, ApplicableLTV,resultingCoverage,theinterestamountfortheRollingPeriod,theDisbursementDate,theReset Date, the preceding Reset Date, the Reset Time and the Election Deadline, and, where the Reference Price is belowtheFloorPrice,theamountrequiredtoeliminatetheFloorShortfallforthepurposesofSection5.5(b)(iii)of this Annex. Borrower acknowledges that the quotation can only be given on the Reset Date, because it reflects live market prices at the Reset Time; and
(c)
if Borrower wishes the Collar Loan to continue for that Rolling Period, Borrower may accept the terms recorded in the Reset Confirmation and make any election available to it under Section 5.3 or Section 5.5 of this Annex, in each case by notice to Lender, which may be by email, by the Election Deadline on that Reset Date. No signature or countersignature is required of Borrower. Acceptance and election are conditions of a roll andarenotobligationsofBorrower;afailuretoaccept,toelectortorespondisnotabreachofthisAnnexandis not an Event of Default, and the sole consequences are those set out in Sections 4.4 and 5.7(c) of this Annex.
Each Reset Confirmation forms part of this Annex and records the terms of that Rolling Period only. On Borrower's acceptance under paragraph (c) it is binding on both parties, and the terms recorded in the Reset Confirmation delivered under paragraph (b) apply from the commencement of the relevant Rolling Period, except where a notice of non-renewal has been given under Section 4.2 of this Annex or the Collar Loan is maturing under Section 4.4 or Section 5.7(c) of this Annex, in which case Section 8.3 of this Annex governs and the Floor Price and Ceiling Price fortheRollingPeriodthenendingcontinuetoapplyuntilsettlementiscompleted.ThisSection4.3isitselftheparties' written agreement to that mechanic for the purposes of Section 16.9 of the Agreement.
4.4
Maturity if no agreement by the Election Deadline. Subject to Section 5.7(b) of this Annex, and without prejudice to the automatic maturity in Section 5.7(c) of this Annex, the Collar Loan shall mature on the Reset Date and be settled in accordance with Section 8 of this Annex if, by the Election Deadline on that Reset Date: (a) either party has given notice of non-renewal under Section 4.2; (b) Borrower has not accepted the terms recorded in the ResetConfirmationdeliveredunderSection4.3(b)ofthisAnnexandthepartieshavenotagreedrevisedterms;or
(c) where the Reference Price is below the Floor Price, Borrower has not elected to roll and eliminate the Floor Shortfall in accordance with Section 5.5(b)(iii) of this Annex, that elimination being a condition of a roll and not an obligation.WhereBorrowerhassoelectedbytheElectionDeadline,theCollarLoandoesnotmatureattheElection DeadlineandinsteadmaturesonlyiftheFloorShortfallisnoteliminatedbytheendoftheCurePeriodunderSection 5.5(b)(iii) of this Annex. The election itself carries no grace period or extension. The Cure Period under Section 5.5(b)(iii) of this Annex extends the time for delivery and payment only, and not the time for electing. Save for that, and save as Lender may permit under Section 5.7(b) of this Annex, the terms quoted under Section 4.3(b) of this Annex lapse at the Election Deadline. A failure to agree is not itself an Event of Default, for the reason given in Section 4.4A, and Borrower has no liability for declining a quote.
4.4
A Maturity is not a default; failure to settle is. Each Collar Loan matures at the end of its Rolling Period by design.NeitherpartyisobligedtoagreeafurtherRollingPeriod,anddecliningtodosobreachesnoobligationandis not a default.

Initial Rolling Period; funding. Where funding occurs later than the Trade Date, Lender shall re-determine the ReferencePriceattheResetTimeontheDisbursementDateand,ifitdiffersfromtheReferencePriceontheTrade Date, shall re-strike the Floor Price and Ceiling Price accordingly in the initial Reset Confirmation, so that Coverage is approximately 100% at funding in accordance with Section 5.5(a) of this Annex. Borrower may decline to proceed within one (1) Business Day of being notified of any such re-strike, in which case no Collar Loan is made and neitherpartyhasanyliability.Section8.3oftheAgreement,whichwouldotherwiserequireatop-upwhereCollateral value falls between Agreement entry and deposit, is disapplied by Section 6.1(b) of this Annex and does not apply.

Records and delivery. Lender shall make each Reset Confirmation available to Borrower by email to Borrower's email address on file, or via the Lender Website, or both, at Lender's option, and shall maintain a record of all Floor Prices, Ceiling Prices, Reference Prices and Interest Rates for each Rolling Period.

5.1
Determination. Each Reset Date is the maturity date of the Rolling Period then ending. On each Reset Date, Lender shall determine the Reference Price as at the Reset Time in accordance with Section 7 of the Agreement, and Borrower may elect by notice to Lender whether to close out or to roll the Collar Loan, that election being a condition of a roll and not an obligation, as provided in Section 4.3(c) of this Annex. Lender's determination of the Reference Price shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Section 5.11 of the Agreement is amended so that the same standard applies to Lender's internal records in respect of each Collar Loan.
The table below summarizes the three price zones for convenience. It does not create, limit or vary any right or obligation, and in the event of any inconsistency between it and Sections 5.2 to 5.7 of this Annex, those Sections prevail.

Refinance. The Collar Loan is rolled into a new structure with a higher Floor Price and Ceiling Price and a new Reset Date. The Excess Appreciation is settled under Sections
5.3and5.5(d)oftheAnnex.
5.2
No margin call and no liquidation at any price. For the avoidance of doubt, a Reference Price at or below the Floor Price does not cause the Collar Loan to accelerate, does not constitute an Event of Default, and does not give rise to any right of Lender to liquidate the Pledged Units. The only consequences are those set out in Section 5.5(b) and, where Borrower does not elect, the automatic maturity in Section 5.7(c) of this Annex. The Floor Price operates as downside protection for the benefit of Borrower and as the measure of Lender's cover, and not as a liquidation trigger. The Collar is tested only at the Reset Time on the Reset Date. The Floor Price and the Ceiling Price are compared with the Reference Price at that moment and at no other.

5.3
Settlement of Excess Appreciation. Where Excess Appreciation arises on a Reset Date, it is settled in one of the following ways, as Borrower elects by notice to Lender:
(a)
Retention of Pledged Units. Borrower authorizes and directs Lender to retain, or to sell or cause the Depository to deliver, such number of Pledged Units as have an aggregate Collateral Market Value equal to the Excess Appreciation, and to retain the proceeds for its own account.
(b)
Paid in cash. Borrower pays the Excess Appreciation to Lender in USD or USDC within one (1) Business Day of the Reset Date, and retains all Pledged Units.
(c)
Rolled into the loan. On a roll only, the Excess Appreciation is added to the Total Loan Amount with effect from the Reset Date, and the Floor Percentage for the next Rolling Period is solved so that Coverage is again approximately 100% by reference to the Total Loan Amount as so increased.
(d)
Baked into the re-quote. On a roll only, the Excess Appreciation is reflected in the Ceiling Percentage and Interest Rate quoted for the next Rolling Period under Section 5.6 of this Annex, in which case no separate amount is payable and the Total Loan Amount is not increased.
Borrower elects which of paragraphs (a) to (d) applies at each Reset. If Borrower does not elect by the Election Deadline, or is unable to do so, paragraph (a) applies on the automatic maturity of the Collar Loan under Section 5.7(c)ofthisAnnex.Anyretention,saleordeliveryofPledgedUnitsunderparagraph(a):(i)iseffectedatBorrower's direction and standing authorization given in this Section; (ii) is not a liquidation of Collateral for the purposes of the Agreement; and (iii) is not subject to the Liquidation Fee under Section 8.6 of the Agreement.
5.4
Strikes struck from the Reference Price. The Floor Price and the Ceiling Price for each Rolling Period are struck from the Reference Price determined at the Reset Time on the relevant Reset Date, being the then current market price of the Collateral, and not from any capped or adjusted price.

Borroweroptionsateachmaturity.Coverageisapproximately100%atinceptionandisre-establishedateach roll by the mechanics below. At every maturity the election is Borrower's, and Borrower is never obliged to deliver additional Collateral, to post margin or to make any payment in order to avoid a liquidation.
(a)
At inception. The Floor Price is set so that Coverage is approximately 100%, that is, so that the aggregate valueofthePledgedUnitsattheFloorPriceisapproximatelyequaltotheTotalLoanAmount.TheFloorPriceis a quoted commercial figure and may sit marginally above or below the level at which Coverage is exactly 100%. The Applicable LTV and Floor Price recorded in the Reset Confirmation are commercially agreed figures, and smalldifferencesbetweenthemandanexact100%CoveragecalculationdonotaffectthisSection;anyresulting shortfall is borne by Lender under Section 5.5(f) of this Annex.
(b)
Reference Price below the Floor Price. At this point the Pledged Units are worth less than the Total Loan Amount. Lender already holds the Pledged Units in the Collar Collateral Account, and accordingly none of the following requires any delivery or transfer of the Pledged Units by Borrower. The election is Borrower's alone, and Borrower may make a different election at each Reset:
(i)
Debt satisfied; Lender retains the Pledged Units. The Collar Loan terminates and Lender retains the PledgedUnitsitalreadyholdsinfullandfinalsatisfactionoftheSecuredObligations.Borrowerretainsthe Loan proceeds already advanced to it, its right to redelivery of the Pledged Units under Section 15 of the Agreement is extinguished, and its obligations are discharged in full pursuant to Section 3.2(d) of this Annex notwithstanding that the Pledged Units are worth less than the Total Loan Amount. The Floor Shortfall is borne absolutely by Lender and Lender shall have no claim against Borrower for any deficiency. No act, delivery, payment or reason is required of Borrower.
(ii)
Repayment. Borrower repays the Secured Obligations in cash or USDC, and Lender redelivers all Pledged Units to Borrower, notwithstanding that their market value is then less than the amount repaid.
(iii)
Roll, conditional on elimination of the Floor Shortfall. Borrower may continue the Collar Loan into a further Rolling Period only if it so elects by the Election Deadline and the Floor Shortfall is eliminated within the Cure Period. Borrower may eliminate it by delivering additional units of Collateral to the Collar Collateral Account, which on delivery become Pledged Units, by paying down the Total Loan Amount, or by any combination of the two, in each case in the amount specified by Lender in its quotation under Section 4.3(b) of this Annex as being sufficient for Coverage to be approximately 100% at the Floor Price quoted for the next Rolling Period. The amount so specified is determinative of what is required to eliminate the Floor Shortfall for the purposes of this Annex, and Lender shall specify it in good faith and on a commercially reasonable basis. The election must be made by the Election Deadline; only the delivery of Collateral or payment need be completed within the Cure Period. A new structure is then priced and executed at a Floor Price and Ceiling Price struck from the Reference Price. The premium or structuring cost of the Collar for the next Rolling Period may, at Borrower's election, be paid in cash or added to the Total Loan Amount; the Floor Shortfall itself may not be capitalized. Where Borrower has elected to roll under this paragraph, the Collar Loan does not mature at the Election Deadline. The Floor Price and Ceiling Price for the Rolling Period then ending continue to apply throughout the Cure Period, and the new Floor Price and Ceiling Price take effect only on completion of the cure, so that Borrower bears no price risk during the Cure Period. On completion of the cure the new Rolling Period is deemed to have commenced on the day immediately followingtheResetDateinaccordancewiththedefinitionofRollingPeriod,andinterestforitisearnedinfull on that day.

Borrower may elect paragraph (i) or paragraph (ii) above at any time up to one (1) Business Day after the end of the Cure Period, and if it does not do so the Collar Loan is settled automatically under Section 5.7(c) of this Annex. A failure to complete the cure within the Cure Period is not an Event of Default, and for the purposes of Sections 4.4A and 9.1A(e) of this Annex the period for completing settlement runs from the end of that further one (1) Business Day and not from the Reset Date.

If Borrower does not elect by the Election Deadline, or is unable to do so, the Collar Loan matures automatically under Section 5.7(c) of this Annex.
(c)
Reference Price between the Floor Price and the Ceiling Price.

On a roll, the higher Floor Price raises the level of Borrower's downside protection for the next Rolling Period, and where Coverage then exceeds 100% Borrower may request the release of excess Pledged Units under Section 6.4 of this Annex.
(e)
Cost of a Floor Price close to the Reference Price. Borrower acknowledges that the cost of the Floor increases materially as the Floor Percentage approaches 100%, and that this cost is met by a tighter Ceiling Percentage, a higher Interest Rate, or both, re-quoted at each Reset under Section 5.6 of this Annex.

At each Reset Lender shall re-quote the Floor Price,theCeilingPriceandtheInterestRatebyreferencetoprevailingmarkettermsfora30-daytenor,includingthe cost of any Hedge Transaction, and shall specify them in the Reset Confirmation. The Floor Price shall be quoted at the highest level Lender is prepared to offer, having regard to Section 5.5, and Lender shall on request explain the basis of the quotation. The Interest Rate and the Ceiling Price trade off against one another, and Borrower may at each Reset elect either (a) to specify the Ceiling Price it is prepared to accept, in which case Lender shall quote the corresponding Interest Rate, or (b) to specify a target Interest Rate, in which case Lender shall solve for the correspondingCeilingPrice.Borrower'sremedyifitdoesnotacceptanyre-quotedtermistocloseoutunderSection

(ii)

Lender may sell such number of Pledged Units as is necessary to discharge the Secured Obligations, together with any Excess Appreciation, which is settled separately under Section 5.3(a) of this Annex and does not form part of the Secured Obligations, and shall redeliver the balance and any surplus to Borrower. Any such sale is treated as a sale under Section 8.3(b) ofthisAnnex,sothatBorroweriscreditedwiththeactualnetproceedsofsaleandretainsthebenefitofthe Floor Price, and is a permitted disposal for the purposes of Section 6.3 of this Annex. Lender shall effect the sale within a reasonable time and in a commercially reasonable manner, and shall give Borrower not less than one (1) Business Day's prior notice of it. Borrower may instead repay the Secured Obligations in cash or USDC at any time before that sale and take redelivery of all Pledged Units.
(d)
No power of attorney; nothing signed on Borrower's behalf. Maturity under paragraph (c) operates by force of this Annex alone. Lender is not appointed as, and shall not act as, agent or attorney of Borrower for any purpose under this Section 5.7, and shall not execute any Reset Confirmation or other document on Borrower's behalf. Nothing in paragraph (c) requires Borrower to sign, elect, deliver or pay anything, and the appointment in Section 9.10 of the Agreement is not exercised for the purposes of this Section 5.7.
(e)
Non-recourse preserved; not a default. Nothing in paragraph (c) creates any recourse against Borrower beyond the Pledged Units or otherwise affects Section 3 of this Annex. Maturity under paragraph (c) is not an Event of Default, is not a liquidation of Collateral for the purposes of the Agreement, and attracts no Liquidation Fee under Section 8.6 of the Agreement.
(f)
Notice and records. Lender shall notify Borrower promptly following maturity under paragraph (c) of the Reference Price determined at the Reset Time, the resulting settlement under paragraph (c)(i) or (c)(ii), and any surplus redelivered. Notice may be given by email. Failure to give that notice does not affect the maturity, which is automatic.

6.2
No margin calls at any price. Borrower shall have no obligation, at any LTV and at any price of the Collateral, to deposit additional Collateral, to post variation margin or to pay down the principal balance of a Collar Loan. An LTV in excess of 100%, whether during a Rolling Period or at a Reset, is expressly permitted, does not constitute an Event of Default, and gives rise to no right or remedy of Lender against Borrower, Lender's only remedies beingnon-renewal under Section 4.2 of this Annex, the withholding of a roll under Section 5.5(b) of this Annex, and the automatic maturity of the Collar Loan under Section 5.7(c) of this Annex where Borrower does not elect.

6.4
Release of excess Pledged Units. Borrower may request the release of Pledged Units to the extent their aggregate value at the then-current Floor Price exceeds the Total Loan Amount, and Lender shall release such excess at the next Reset, subject to Coverage remaining at not less than approximately 100% following the release and to no Event of Default then continuing. Section 8.5 of the Agreement does not apply.
6.5

The 1% Liquidation Fee under Section 8.6 of the Agreement does not apply to any sale, delivery, retention or other application of Pledged Units under Section 5.3, Section 5.5, Section 5.7, Section 6.3(a), (b),(c)or(e),Section8orSection10.2ofthisAnnex.ItappliesonlytoadisposalfollowinganEventofDefaultunder Section 6.3(d) of this Annex.

is calculated on a 30/360 basis, so that interest for a Rolling Period equals the outstanding principal balance multipliedbytheInterestRatemultipliedby30/360,irrespectiveoftheactualnumberofcalendardaysinthatRolling Period, and the amount so calculated is specified in the Reset Confirmation. Interest is earned in full for each Rolling Period on the first day of that Rolling Period, and a repayment, prepayment or termination during a Rolling Period does not reduce the interest payable for that Rolling Period. Where Borrower rolls under Section 5.5(b)(iii) of this Annex, the new Rolling Period commences on the day immediately following the Reset Date notwithstanding that the cure is completed during the Cure Period, and interest for the new Rolling Period is earned in full on that day. Where a Rolling Period is extended under Section 9.3 of this Annex, interest continues to accrue for the additional days on a daily simple-interest basis using a 360-day year at the Interest Rate then in effect, and interest continues to accrue on the same daily basis after maturity until settlement is completed in accordance with Section 8.3 of this Annex. A Rolling Period shortened by a mid-period exit under Section 8.2 of this Annex does not reduce the interest payable for that Rolling Period.
7.2
Interestpaidmonthly.AccruedinterestforeachRollingPeriodisdueandpayableinarrearsontheResetDate, in U.S. dollars or USDC. Interest does not accrue against, and is not capitalized into, the Total Loan Amount, and does not of itself reduce the Pledged Units, save that unpaid interest may be satisfied out of Pledged Units under Section 6.3(e) of this Annex. Interest may not be deferred. Interest accruing during a Rolling Period is not taken into account in the LTV, in the Applicable LTV or in Coverage at any time during that Rolling Period; it is an amount due to Lender on the Reset Date.
7.3
Late payment. Section 5.6 of the Agreement (Late Payment Fee) applies to interest payable under Section 7.2 of this Annex, save that the fee is the greater of (a) 1% of the overdue interest payment only, and not of the principal balance or the Secured Obligations, and (b) $10.00.

8.REPAYMENT,PREPAYMENTANDSETTLEMENT
8.1
Prepayment and exit. Borrower may repay a Collar Loan in whole or in part at any time, at any price of the Collateral and after any holding period, without prepayment penalty or fee, on one (1) Business Day's prior notice, provided that interest for the whole of the Rolling Period in which the repayment occurs remains payable in fullinaccordancewithSection7.1ofthisAnnex.Paymentofthatinterestisnotaprepaymentpenaltyorfee;itisthe interest Borrower contracted to pay for that Rolling Period, Lender having struck and funded the Collar for the whole of that Rolling Period. Redelivery is conditional on payment in full. Lender's obligation to direct the Depository to transfer the remaining Pledged Units to Borrower under Section 15 of the Agreement arises only once Lender has received, in cleared funds, the whole of the Secured Obligations including the interest payable for the entire Rolling Period in which the repayment occurs, and Lender is under no obligation to release any Pledged Units before that time. On a partial prepayment, the Collar shall be re-struck at the next Reset by reference to the reduced Secured Obligations, and Borrower may request the release of Pledged Units under Section 6.4 of this Annex; the Collar is not re-struck mid-period on account of a partial prepayment.
8.2
Mid-period termination. Where Borrower repays or terminates other than on a Reset Date, (a) interest for the wholeofthatRollingPeriodremainspayableinfullunderSection7.1ofthisAnnex,and(b)theCollarshallbesettled by reference to the Collar Settlement Value determined as at the Reset Time on the date of repayment, so that Borrower retains the full benefit of the Floor Price for the Rolling Period, without pro-ration, and Lender retains any Excess Appreciation. Lender may make an adjustment to reflect the unexpired portion of the Rolling Period, which it shall determine in good faith and on a commercially reasonable basis and shall on request explain to Borrower. Any such adjustment is a settlement of the Collar and not a prepayment penalty or fee for the purposes of Section 8.1 of this Annex. Borrower shall in no circumstances be worse off than if the Pledged Units were valued at the Floor Price.ExcessAppreciationshallforthispurposebecomputedasattheResetTimeonthedateofrepayment

as though that date were a Reset Date.
8.3
Close out at maturity. Where Borrower elects to close out a Collar Loan at a Reset Date, or where the Collar Loan matures under Section 4.4 or Section 5.7(c) of this Annex, the Pledged Units shall be valued at the Collar Settlement Value determined as at the Reset Time on the final Reset Date, and Borrower shall, at its election:
(a)
repay the Secured Obligations in cash or USDC and take redelivery of the Pledged Units, and where the Reference Price is above the Ceiling Price also settle the Excess Appreciation under Section 5.3(a) or (b) of this Annex, that amount not being included in the Secured Obligations;
(b)

The Floor Price and Ceiling Price for the Rolling Period ending on that final Reset Date continue to apply until settlement is completed, and no new Rolling Period commences notwithstanding Section 4.3 of this Annex. Where Borrower elects paragraph (b), Borrower is credited with the actual net proceeds of sale rather than the Collar Settlement Value, and accordingly any movement in the price of the Collateral between the final Reset Time and completion of the sale is for Borrower's account, subject always to Borrower retaining the benefit of the Floor Price and Lender retaining any Excess Appreciation. Interest continues to accrue on the outstanding principal balance on a daily simple-interest basis at the Interest Rate from the final Reset Time until settlement is completed, notwithstanding that no new Rolling Period has commenced, and forms part of the Secured Obligations.
8.4
Shortfall borne by Lender. If the Collar Settlement Value of the Pledged Units is less than the Secured Obligations, the shortfall shall be borne by Lender and Borrower's obligations shall be discharged in full in accordance with Section 3.2(d) of this Annex. Borrower shall have no obligation to fund the shortfall from any other source.
8.5
Excess Appreciation on final settlement. Where a Collar Loan is settled on a Reset Date on which Excess Appreciation arises, Section 5.3(a) or (b) of this Annex applies, paragraphs (c) and (d) being available on a roll only, and the Pledged Units are valued at the Collar Settlement Value (being the Ceiling Price). Borrower is credited with the Ceiling Price and Lender retains the Excess Appreciation; no amount is counted twice.
8.6
Surplus. Any surplus remaining after discharge of all amounts outstanding shall be returned to Borrower in Digital Assets or cash, as Borrower directs. Section 12.3 of the Agreement (which governs the application of liquidation proceeds following an Event of Default) applies only to a disposal under Section 6.3(d) of this Annex.

disappliedbySection10.3ofthisAnnex;and(f)thefourthbullet(failuretocomplywithanyotherobligation)doesnot apply to any obligation disapplied by this Annex.
9.1
A Specified adverse events. In place of the general material adverse change bullet in Section 12.1 of the Agreement, each of the following is an Event of Default in respect of each Collar Loan, and Borrower shall notify Lender of any of them within two (2) Business Days:
(a)
Borrower, or any person that directly or indirectly controls Borrower, becomes the subject of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, administration or similar proceeding, makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they fall due;
(b)
Borrower ceases, or gives notice that it will cease, to carry on its business, or suspends its business for more than thirty (30) consecutive days;
(c)
a change of control of Borrower occurs, meaning any person or group acquires direct or indirect control of Borrower that did not hold such control at the date of this Annex, without Lender's prior written consent;
(d)
any judgment, order or award for the payment of money in excess of $1,000,000 is entered against Borrower and is not satisfied, stayed or bonded within thirty (30) days; or
(e)
following maturity of a Collar Loan under Section 4.4 of this Annex otherwise than by the automatic maturity in Section 5.7(c) of this Annex, and accordingly only where Borrower has elected a settlement route requiring an act of Borrower, Borrower fails within one (1) Business Day, or within the period provided by Section5.5(b)(iii)ofthisAnnexwherematurityresultsfromafailedcure,tocompletesettlementunderSection
8.3 of this Annex, by neither repaying the Secured Obligations, nor directing Lender to sell Pledged Units, nor electing that Lender retain them.
For the avoidance of doubt, a decline in the market value of the Collateral, the Pledged Units being worth less than the Total Loan Amount, an LTV in excess of 100% at any time, the existence of a Floor Shortfall and a failure by Borrower to eliminate a Floor Shortfall are not adverse events under this Section and do not constitute an Event of Default.
9.2
Consequences limited. Lender's rights on an Event of Default under Section 12.2 and Section 12.4 of the Agreement, including acceleration and the taking of possession and liquidation of the Collateral, remain available, but in every case Lender's recovery is limited to the Collateral in accordance with Section 3 of this Annex, save in respect of the Non-Recourse Carve-Outs.
9.3
Market disruption. Where a general suspension of trading in the Collateral occurs such that a Reference Price cannot be determined at the Reset Time, the then-current Rolling Period shall be extended, and the Floor Price and Ceiling Price shall continue to apply, until a Reference Price can be determined, and such extension is not an Event ofDefaultnotwithstandingthedefinitionofRollingPeriodinSection2ofthisAnnex.ThefinalbulletofSection12.1of the Agreement (suspension by U.S. federal authorities, or on at least three major exchanges for at least five days) is disapplied in respect of each Collar Loan to the extent it would otherwise treat as an Event of Default the same circumstances excused by this Section 9.3, and instead entitles either party to give notice of non-renewal under Section 4.2 of this Annex once a Reference Price can again be determined.
10.CUSTODY,HEDGINGANDADDITIONALREPRESENTATIONS
10.1
Custody. The Collateral will be held at Anchorage Digital Bank, N.A. as Depository.
10.2
Use of Collateral for hedging costs. Borrower authorizes Lender to use the Collateral, including by transfer, pledge, delivery as margin or sale, to meet the hedging costs of the Collar Loan. Section 8.7 of the Agreement is amended accordingly in respect of each Collar Loan. Lender remains obliged to redeliver Equivalent Units, and every reference in this Annex and in the Agreement to the redelivery, release, return or transfer of Pledged Units to BorroweristoEquivalentUnits.Lenderisundernoobligationtodisclosetheexistence,terms,counterparties,pricing or cost of any hedge, and no such matter forms part of the terms of the Collar Loan. Borrower acknowledges that Collateral used under this Section will not be segregated, that its rights in respect of that Collateral are contractual rightsagainstLenderforredeliveryofEquivalentUnitsratherthanproprietaryrightsinidentifiedunits,andthatit

DocID:dad2598bb2c97cc0141b180f10bf994564f945fb
takes credit risk on Lender in respect of that obligation. Nothing in this Section increases Borrower's obligations, creates any recourse against Borrower beyond the Collateral, or affects any election available to Borrower under Section 5.3 or Section 5.5 of this Annex; and where Borrower elects that Lender retain the Pledged Units under Section 5.5(b)(i), that retention extends to Collateral used under this Section.
10.2
A Perfection; location of Borrower. Borrower is a registered organization organized under the laws of the State of Florida and is therefore located in Florida for the purposes of Section 9-307 of the Uniform Commercial Code,withtheconsequencethatunderSection9-301thelocallawofFloridagovernsperfectionofLender'ssecurity interestandfinancingstatementsmustbefiledinFlorida.Thisisnotamatterofelectionbyeitherparty.Accordingly, the definition of “UCC” in Section 3 of the Agreement, which refers to the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code, is superseded by this Section 10.2A in respect of each Collar Loan, and: (a) references in the Agreement and in this Annex to the UCC are to the Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction whose law governs the question in issue, and in respect of perfection and priority to the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Florida; and (b) Lender may filefinancingstatementsinFloridaandinanyotherjurisdictionitconsidersnecessaryordesirableunderSection9.4 of the Agreement. Governing law is unaffected and remains as provided in Section 16.1 of the Agreement.
10.3
Commercial purpose; consumer provisions disapplied. Borrower represents and warrants that it is a corporation or limited liability company, that each Collar Loan is obtained solely for business and commercial purposes and not for personal, family or household purposes, and that it is not a “covered borrower” within the meaning of the Military Lending Act. Accordingly, the following provisions of the Agreement are superseded by this Annex and do not apply to any Collar Loan, and Borrower waives the benefit of each of them to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: the Truth in Lending Act Disclosure and the Disclosure Statement, no such disclosure being required in respect of a Collar Loan and none being given, and the pages of the Agreement containing them being of no application to any Collar Loan; the Itemization of Amount Financed; Section 16.5 (TCPA Consent); Section 16.6 (Call Recording); Section 16.19 (Military Lending Act); Section 17.2(c), to the extent it requires an unqualified representation that no litigation or proceeding is pending or threatened against Borrower, which is replaced by a representation that no litigation or proceeding is pending or threatened which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Borrower's ability to perform under this Annex; Section 17.2(h), to the extent it requires that Loan proceeds be used only for lawful personal, family or household purposes, which is replacedbyarepresentationthatproceedswillbeusedonlyforlawfulbusinessandcommercialpurposes;Section
18 (Authorizations of Borrower), including the consumer credit report, references, spousal and social securitynumber verification authorizations; Section 20 (Additional Disclosures); Section 21 (Notice to Customer); Section 22 (AcknowledgmentandConsent);andExhibitA(ConsumerACHAuthorizationandAgreement).Inaddition,because there is no Application in respect of a Collar Loan, Sections 2.1, 16.2 and 17.1 of the Agreement, and the words “including your Application” in Section 16.7, do not apply, and the definitions of “Application”, “Original LTV”, “Disclosure Statement” and “APR” in Section 3 of the Agreement are not applicable to any Collar Loan. Section 17.3 of the Agreement (Survival of Representations) applies at each Reset to the representations as so amended.
10.4
Characterization as indebtedness. The parties intend that each Collar Loan be treated as indebtedness of Borrower secured by the Collateral, and not as a sale, exchange or other disposition of the Collateral to Lender, nor asaswap,commodityoptionorsecurity-basedswap,forallpurposes.TheFloorPriceandCeilingPricearetermsof the Collar Loan and confer no option, derivative or other instrument on Borrower.

No other amendment. Save as expressly set out in this Annex, the Agreement is not amended and remains in full force and effect.

11.2
Governing law. This Annex is governed by the laws of the State of New York, consistent with Section 16.1 of the Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the reference in Section 16.1 to “THE ARBITRATION PROVISION (SECTION 18)” is a scrivener's error and shall be read as a reference to Section 19 of the Agreement.
11.3
Commercial arbitration. Section 19 of the Agreement (Arbitration Agreement) does not apply to any Collar Loan, the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules, the 60-day rejection right and the residence-based venue provisions there set out being inappropriate for a corporate borrower. It is replaced, in respect of each Collar Loan, by this Section 11.3.
(a)
Agreement to arbitrate. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Annex, any Reset Confirmation, any Collar Loan or the Agreement as it applies to a Collar Loan, including its formation, interpretation, breach, termination or validity, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and, where applicable, its Procedures for Large, Complex Commercial Disputes. The Consumer Arbitration Rules shall not apply.
(b)
Seat, tribunal and language. The seat and place of hearing shall be New York County, New York. The tribunal shall consist of one arbitrator where the amount in dispute is less than $5,000,000, and otherwise of three arbitrators, one nominated by each party and the third, who shall chair the tribunal, nominated by the two party-nominated arbitrators. Each arbitrator shall have experience in secured lending, derivatives or digital asset transactions. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
(c)
Federal Arbitration Act; substantive law. This Section 11.3 is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1 and following. The substantive law applicable to the dispute is the law of the State of New York in accordance with Section 16.1 of the Agreement.
(d)
No class or consolidated proceedings. All claims shall be brought in the parties' individual capacities only. Neither party may bring a claim as a class, collective, representative or consolidated action, and the arbitrator shall have no authority to consolidate claims or to preside over any class or representative proceeding. Thisparagraphsurvivesterminationand,ifheldunenforceableinrespectofaparticularclaim,thatclaimshallbe severed and heard in court under Section 16.1 of the Agreement while all other claims remain in arbitration.
(e)
Interim relief; enforcement of security. Nothing in this Section prevents either party from applying to any court of competent jurisdiction for interim, provisional or injunctive relief, and such an application is not a waiver of the agreement to arbitrate. Without limitation, Lender may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain, perfect, preserve or enforce its security interest in the Collateral, to obtain possession of or realize the Collateral, and to obtain injunctive relief in respect of any of the Non-Recourse Carve-Outs, in each case without first submitting the matter to arbitration. Any such proceeding remains subject to the non-recourse provisions of Section 3 of this Annex. The scope of this paragraph is limited: a court application under it is confined to interim, provisional, injunctive and security enforcement relief and does not extend to the merits of any dispute, which remain exclusively for the tribunal, and no court determination under this paragraph binds the tribunal on themerits.Thetribunalhasthesamepowertograntinterimandprovisionalreliefasacourt,andtheEmergency MeasuresofProtectionprovisionsoftheCommercialArbitrationRulesapply,sothatBorrowerhasanequivalent route to urgent relief.
(f)
No rejection right; jury waiver; costs; award. The rejection right in Section 19.3 of the Agreement does not apply and neither party may opt out of this Section 11.3. Each party irrevocably waives any right to trial by jury in any proceeding arising out of or relating to a Collar Loan, whether in arbitration or in court. Each party shall bear its own costs and an equal share of the arbitrators' fees and the administrative fees of the American Arbitration Association, save that the tribunal may award costs to the prevailing party. The award shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
(g)
Confidentiality. The existence, content and outcome of any arbitration under this Section are confidential, saveasrequiredbyapplicablelaw,regulation,stockexchangeruleorcourtorder,orasnecessarytoenforcean award.
