(a)Amendment.  The execution and delivery of this Amendment by each Loan Party, the Agent and each Lender;

(b)No Default.  No Default or Event of Default exists as of the date hereof after giving effect to this Amendment; and

6.Representations and Warranties.  Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants as of the Third Amendment Effective Date to Agent and each Lender as follows:

(a)

each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation or formation;

(a)the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representation or warranty that is, by its terms qualified by materiality, in all respects) on and as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates to a specific earlier date in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representation or warranty that is, by its terms qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such earlier date, in each case, after giving effect to this Amendment.

5


7.Loan Documents in Full Force and Effect.  The Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, and each Loan Party hereby reaffirms the Obligations and any and all guarantees, security interests and Liens it has granted (or made) to secure the Obligations. Each such Obligation, guarantee, security interest and Lien is reaffirmed and shall remain and continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms notwithstanding this Amendment and shall include and extend to any new obligations assumed by any Loan Party under this Amendment or otherwise under the Loan Documents.  The validity and enforceability of the appointment of the Agent as proxy and attorney-in-fact under Section 10.3 of the Loan Agreement is ratified and reaffirmed as of the date hereof, and to the extent expressly contemplated by such provision and subject to the limitations set forth therein, each Loan Party reappoints the Agent as its proxy and attorney-in-fact in accordance with the terms of such provisions, as applicable, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall terminate only on the Termination Date, for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of such Loan Documents, as applicable.  Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not be deemed to be an amendment to, modification of or consent to the departure from any provisions of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or any right, power or remedy of the Agent or the Lenders, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any other document, instrument and/or agreement executed or delivered in connection therewith or of any Event of Default under any of the foregoing, in each case, whether arising before or after the date hereof or as a result of performance hereunder or thereunder.  All references to the Loan Agreement shall be deemed to mean the Loan Agreement as modified hereby.  For the avoidance of doubt, all modifications of the Loan Agreement provided for in this Amendment shall apply to all Term Loans, including the Closing Date Term Loan, the First Amendment Term Loan and the Delayed Draw Term Loans, and shall survive any repayment or prepayment of the First Amendment Term Loan and the Delayed Draw Term Loans. This Amendment shall not constitute a novation or satisfaction and accord of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The parties hereto agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and the Loan Documents as modified by this Amendment, as though such terms and conditions were set forth herein. Each reference in the Loan Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement as modified by this Amendment, and each reference herein or in any other Loan Document to the “Loan Agreement” shall mean and be a reference to the Loan Agreement as modified by this Amendment.

8.Release.   Each Loan Party hereby waives, remises, releases, acquits, satisfies and forever discharges the Agent and each Lender, their respective agents, employees, officers, directors, predecessors, attorneys and all others acting or purporting to act on behalf of or at the direction of the Agent or any Lender (“Releasees”), of and from any and all manner of known and unknown actions, causes of action, suits, debts, accounts, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, variances, damages, judgments, claims and demands whatsoever, whether in law or in equity, which any of such parties ever had, now has or, to the extent arising from or in connection with any act, omission or state of facts taken or existing on or prior to the date hereof, may have after the date hereof against the Releasees, for, upon or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever in connection with the Obligations or the Loan Documents through the date hereof.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Party waives and affirmatively agrees not to allege or otherwise pursue any defenses, affirmative defenses, counterclaims, claims, causes of action, setoffs or other rights they do, shall or may have in connection with the Obligations or the Loan Documents as of the date hereof, including, but not limited to, the rights to contest any conduct of the Releasees relating to or arising out of the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents on or prior to the date hereof.

9.Direction to Agent.  The undersigned Lenders hereby represent and warrant that they constitute all Lenders as of the  date hereof and hereby direct and authorize the Agent to execute this Amendment.

6


10.Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Amendment.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature (including an electronic signature) shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

11.Successors and Assigns.  This Amendment shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that neither this Amendment nor any rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents may be assigned, transferred, hypothecated or otherwise conveyed by any Loan Party without the prior express written consent of Agent and the Required Lenders. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by any Loan Party without the prior express written consent of Agent and the Required Lenders shall be void.

12.CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICAIL REFERENCE.  IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS AMENDMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS REGARDING CHOICE OF LAW AND VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER, AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE SET FORTH IN SECTION 12 OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT, AND SUCH PROVISIONS ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

The Corporation has taken all corporate actions or proceedings required to be taken by or on the part of the Corporation to authorize and permit the execution and delivery by the Corporation of this Warrant and the performance by the Corporation of its obligations hereunder and the consummation by the Corporation of the transactions contemplated hereby. This Warrant has been duly executed and delivered by the Corporation, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Holders, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Corporation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(c) The execution and delivery by the Corporation of this Warrant, the performance by the Corporation of its obligations hereunder and the consummation by the Corporation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not violate (i) any provision of law, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Corporation, (ii) the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Corporation, (iii) any applicable order of any court or any rule, regulation or order of any governmental authority applicable to the Corporation or (iv) any provision of any indenture, certificate of designation for preferred stock, agreement or other instrument to which the Corporation is a party or by which its

property is or may be bound, except, in each case, for any such violation that would not impair in any material way the Corporation's ability to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

(d) Assuming the accuracy of the Holders’ several representations and warranties set forth in Article 5, the issuance of this Warrant (and the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant) is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and all other applicable state blue sky or other securities laws, statutes, rules or regulations.

(f) This Warrant has been duly authorized and is validly issued.

(g) Each Warrant Share issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be, upon issuance, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free from preemptive or similar rights and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect thereto (other than liens and charges arising solely from the actions and circumstances of any Holder).

(h) The Corporation will at all times during the Exercise Period maintain authorized and reserved for issuance solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, such number of Common Shares as are then and from time to time subject to issuance upon the exercise in whole of this Warrant, which shares have not been subscribed for or otherwise committed or issued.

(i) The Corporation shall take all such action as many be necessary to ensure the par value per Warrant Share will at all times during the Exercise Period be less than or equal to the applicable Exercise Price.

(j) The Corporation shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Corporation of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or any other constituent document and of any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or any requirements of any securities exchange upon which the Common Shares or other securities constituting Warrant Shares may be listed at the time of such exercise (except for official notice of issuance which will be promptly delivered by the Corporation upon each such issuance).

(k) The Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Warrant Shares, promptly upon such exercise, to be listed on the NASDAQ or any domestic securities exchange upon which Common Shares are listed at the time of such exercise.

(l) The Corporation shall pay all expenses in connection with, and all taxes (other than United States federal, state or local income taxes) and other governmental charges that may be imposed with respect to, the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.

Article 4
Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares

Section 4.01 Adjustment to Number of Warrant Shares. If the Corporation, at any time after the Issue Date but prior to the Expiration Time (or, if earlier, the exercise in full of this Warrant), (a) makes or declares a dividend or other distribution (in part or in full) on its outstanding Common Shares payable in Equity Interests of the Corporation, (b) subdivides (by any split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares, or (c) combines (by combination, reverse split or otherwise) its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares, then the remaining number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination shall be

8


proportionately adjusted so each Holder will thereafter receive upon exercise in full of this Warrant the aggregate number and kind of shares of Equity Interests of the Corporation that such Holder would have owned immediately following such action if this Warrant had been exercised in full immediately before the record date for such action. Any adjustment under this Section 4.01 shall become effective at the close of business on the record date of the dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination (or, if no record date is set (whether by action of the Corporation, through statute or otherwise), the date the dividend, distribution, subdivision or combination becomes effective). If any such event is announced or declared and the Warrant Shares are adjusted pursuant to this Section 4.01 but such event does not occur, the Warrant Shares shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board announces that such event shall not occur, to the number of Warrant Shares that would then be in effect if such event had not been declared. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant is adjusted pursuant to this Section 4.01, the Corporation shall provide the notice required by Section 6.01.

Section 4.02 Dissolution, Liquidation or Winding Up. If the Corporation, at any time after the Issue Date but prior to the Expiration Time (or, if earlier, the exercise in full of this Warrant), commences a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, then (a) each Holder of this Warrant shall receive the kind and number of other securities or assets which such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had exercised in full this Warrant and acquired the applicable number of Warrant Shares then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise immediately prior to the time of such dissolution, liquidation or winding up, and (b) the right to exercise this Warrant shall terminate on the date on which the holders of record of Common Shares shall be entitled to exchange their Common Shares for securities or assets deliverable upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

Section 4.03 Fundamental Transactions. If the Corporation, at any time after the Issue Date but prior to the Expiration Time (or, if earlier, the exercise in full of this Warrant), effects any Fundamental Transaction, then upon consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, this Warrant shall automatically become exercisable for the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which each Holder of this Warrant would have owned immediately after such Fundamental Transaction if such Holder had exercised in full this Warrant immediately before the effective date of such Fundamental Transaction, assuming that such Holder failed to exercise its rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction. With respect to any Fundamental Transaction that the Corporation has not publicly announced at least 15 days prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, (a) the Corporation will deliver to the Holders written notice of such Fundamental Transaction at least 15 days prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction (which written notice will be treated as confidential by the Holders), and (b) each Holder agrees not to exercise this Warrant (or any portion thereof) during the two Business Days immediately preceding the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction. Concurrently with the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction, the Person formed by or surviving the Fundamental Transaction (if other than the Corporation), or if such Fundamental Transaction is a transfer of lease, the Person to which such transfer or lease shall have been made, shall, and the Corporation shall direct such Person to, enter into a supplemental agreement so providing and further providing for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Article 4. If this ‎Section 4.03 applies to a transaction, Section 4.01 shall not apply.

Section 4.04 Exercise Price in the Event of an Adjustment in Number of Warrant Shares. Upon any adjustment of the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant pursuant to this Article 4, the Exercise Price per Warrant Share subject to issuance upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted concurrently thereto to equal the product of (a) $0.01 (or if the Exercise Price has been previously adjusted, then as such adjusted Exercise Price) times (b) a fraction, of which the numerator is the total number of Warrant Shares subject to issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant before giving effect to the adjustment, and the denominator is the total number of Warrant Shares subject to issuance upon the exercise of this Warrants as so adjusted.

Each Holder represents and warrants that it has been furnished by the Corporation all information (or provided access to all information) regarding the business and financial condition of the Corporation, its expected plans for future business activities, the attributes of the Securities, and the merits and risks of an investment in such Securities which it has requested or otherwise needs to evaluate the investment in such Securities; that in making the proposed investment decision, such Holder is relying solely on such information, the representations, warranties and agreements of the Corporation contained herein and on investigations made by it and its representatives; that the offer to sell the Securities hereunder was communicated to such Holder in such a manner that it was able to ask questions of and receive answers from the management of the Corporation concerning the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction and that at no time was it presented with or solicited by or through any leaflet, public promotional meeting, television advertisement or any other form of general or public advertising or solicitation; and such Holder recognizes that an investment in the Securities involves risks and can result in a total loss of all funds invested.

Section 5.08 Non-Reliance. Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, each Holder hereby acknowledges, with respect to itself, that the Corporation may possess material non-public information with respect to the Corporation and/or its securities not known to each Holder as of the date hereof or at a time when each Holder exercises its right to purchase Warrant Shares pursuant to this Warrant and that any such information may impact the value of the Warrant and the Warrant Shares. Each Holder with respect to itself irrevocably waives any claim, or potential claim, that it may have based on the failure of the Corporation or its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents or other representatives to disclose such information in connection with the execution and delivery of this Warrant or the purchase of Warrant Shares hereunder; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.08 or otherwise to the contrary, each Holder does not and shall not be deemed to have waived or otherwise compromised any rights or claims based upon or arising out of (i) the Corporation’s disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws with respect to any untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any public statement or filing made by the Corporation pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (ii) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Corporation in this Warrant, the Loan Agreement or the Loan Agreement Amendment. Each Holder with respect to itself acknowledges that the Corporation would not enter into this Warrant in the absence of the agreements set forth in this Section 5.08.

These securities may not be sold or offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder, in each case in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the states or other jurisdictions, and in the case of a transaction exempt from registration, such securities may only be transferred if the transfer agent for such securities has received documentation reasonably satisfactory to it that such transaction does not require registration under the Securities Act.”

Section 6.05 Warrant Register. The Corporation shall keep and properly maintain at its principal executive offices books for the registration of this Warrant and any exercises thereof (the “Warrant Register”).

TeraWulf Increases Operating Capacity to >1.6 EH/s and Announces $17 million of Incremental Capital

EASTON, Md. – October 10, 2022 – TeraWulf Inc. (Nasdaq: WULF) (“TeraWulf” or the “Company”), which owns and operates vertically integrated, domestic bitcoin mining facilities powered by more than 91% zero-carbon energy, today announced it has increased its total operating capacity to more than 1.6 EH/s at its Lake Mariner facility in New York. The Company also announced $17 million of new capital, comprised of an approximate $9.5 million non-brokered private placement of equity (the “Private Placement”) and $7.5 million of incremental proceeds under the Company’s Term Loan.

Increased Operating Capacity

TeraWulf today announced it has expanded its operating capacity to exceed 1.6 EH/s. This follows the recent full energization of Building 1 (50 MW) at the Company’s Lake Mariner facility in New York. Building 2 (also 50 MW) at Lake Mariner remains on track to be energized by the end of Q4 2022, expanding the Company’s expected near-term self-mining operating capacity to 3.8 EH/s.

TeraWulf’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Paul Prager, commented, “We are pleased to achieve such a significant ramp of mining operations at Lake Mariner, and look forward to further expanding our operating capacity in the months ahead. I would like to thank the tireless construction team at Lake Mariner for their extraordinary work on getting this facility online and increasing our hashing capacity as efficiently and safely as possible.”

As previously announced, the Nautilus Cryptomine facility is in the final stages of construction and is projected to begin mining this quarter. The Nautilus Cryptomine, a partnership between TeraWulf and Talen Energy Corp., has access to up to 300 MW of bitcoin mining capacity from the 2.3 GW Susquehanna Nuclear Station in Pennsylvania and is expected to be the first domestic bitcoin mining facility site that is powered by 100% “behind the meter” nuclear energy.

TeraWulf continues to target reaching a total of 5.8 EH/s of operational mining capacity across its two mining facilities in Q1 2023.

Incremental Capital

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company has entered into a securities purchase agreement with existing investors for approximately $9.5 million of common stock shares and warrants to acquire 7,481,746 additional shares of its common stock (the "Warrants"). The Warrants will be exercisable immediately upon issuance, in whole or in part, at an exercise price of $1.93 per share and will have a five-year term. Aggregate gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $9.5 million, before deducting estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, based on an offering price equal to the trailing 10-day volume weighted price of $1.26 for each share of the Company's common stock plus one Warrant. 

Simultaneous with the Private Placement, the Company drew an incremental $7.5 million of available proceeds under its $50 million Term Loan add-on facility entered into in July 2022 with existing lenders. TeraWulf intends to use net proceeds of the Private Placement, in conjunction with the incremental debt, to fund expenditures related to Bitcoin mining infrastructure and equipment, as well as for general corporate purposes.


“With this funding, we are well positioned to continue the value creating deployment of our mining facilities and move the Company a step closer to self-sustaining operations,” said Patrick Fleury, TeraWulf’s Chief Financial Officer.

“We are grateful to our investors, including some who have been with the Company since its inception, and our lenders for their continued support and confidence in our management team,” added Paul Prager.

The securities were offered in a private placement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") and have not been registered under the Act, or applicable state securities laws. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the investors, the Company has agreed to file one or more registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares of common stock and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

About TeraWulf

TeraWulf (Nasdaq: WULF) owns and operates vertically integrated environmentally clean bitcoin mining facilities in the United States. Led by an experienced group of energy entrepreneurs, the Company is currently developing two mining facilities, Lake Mariner in New York and the Nautilus Cryptomine Facility in Pennsylvania, with the objective of over 800 MW of mining capacity deployed by 2025, enabling over 23 EH/s of expected hashrate. TeraWulf generates domestically produced bitcoin powered by nuclear, hydro, and solar energy with a goal of utilizing 100% zero-carbon energy. With a core focus of ESG that ties directly to its business success, TeraWulf expects to offer attractive mining economics at an industrial scale.
