In the event of a conflict between these General Terms and any exhibit, addendum or supplement hereto, then the document governing the specific relevant Prime Broker Service shall control in respect of such Prime Broker Service.

Coinbase and Coinbase Custody will credit the Client with any payments or distributions on any Client Assets it holds for Client’s Trading Balance and Vault Balance. Coinbase and Coinbase Custody will comply with Client’s Instructions with respect to Client Assets in Client’s Trading Balance or Vault Balance, subject to the terms of the MTA or Custody Agreement, as applicable, and related Coinbase rules, including the Coinbase Trading Rules (as such term is defined in the MTA).

15. Acknowledgement of Risks

Client hereby acknowledges, that: (i) Digital Assets are not legal tender, are not backed by any government, and are not subject to protections afforded by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or Securities Investor Protection Corporation; (ii) Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and/or value of Digital Assets; (iii) transactions in Digital Assets are irreversible, and, accordingly, Digital Assets lost due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable; (iv) certain Digital Assets transactions will be deemed to be made when recorded on a public blockchain ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that Client initiates the transaction or such transaction enters the pool; (v) the value of Digital Assets may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange any government issued currency (“Fiat Currency”) for Digital Assets, which may result in the permanent and total loss of value of a Digital Asset should the market for that Digital Asset disappear; (vi) the volatility of the value of Digital Assets relative to Fiat Currency may result in significant losses; (vii) Digital Assets may be susceptible to an increased risk of fraud or cyber-attack; (viii) the nature of Digital Assets means that any technological difficulties experienced by a Coinbase Entity may prevent the access or use of Client Digital Assets; and (ix) any bond or trust account maintained by Coinbase Entities for the benefit of its customers may not be sufficient to cover all losses (including Losses) incurred by customers.

16. Operation of Digital Asset Protocols

16.1 The Coinbase Entities do not own or control the underlying software protocols which govern the operation of Digital Assets. Generally, the underlying software protocols and, if applicable, related smart contracts (referred to collectively as “Protocols” for purposes of this Section 16) are open source and anyone can use, copy, modify or distribute them. By using the Prime Broker Services, Client acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Coinbase Entities make no guarantee of the functionality, security, or availability of underlying Protocols; (ii) some underlying Protocols are subject to consensus-based proof of stake validation methods which may allow, by virtue of their governance systems, changes to the associated blockchain or digital ledger (“Governance Modifiable Blockchains”), and that any Client transactions validated on such Governance Modifiable Blockchains may be affected accordingly; and (iii) the underlying Protocols are subject to sudden changes in operating rules (a/k/a “forks”), and that such forks may materially affect the value, function, and/or even the name of the Digital Assets. In the event of a fork, Client agrees that the Coinbase Entities may temporarily suspend Prime Broker Services (with or without notice to Client) and that the Coinbase Entities may, in their sole discretion, determine whether or not to support (or cease supporting) either branch of the forked protocol entirely. Client agrees that the Coinbase Entities shall have no liability, obligation or responsibility whatsoever arising out of or relating to the operation of Protocols, transactions affected by Governance Modifiable Blockchains, or an unsupported branch of a forked protocol and, accordingly, Client acknowledges and assumes the risk of the same.

16.2 Unless specifically communicated by the Coinbase Entities through a written public statement on the Coinbase website, the Coinbase Entities do not support airdrops, metacoins, colored coins, side chains, or other derivative, enhanced or forked protocols, tokens or coins, which supplement or interact with a Digital Asset (collectively, “Advanced Protocols”) in connection with the Prime Broker Services. The Prime Broker Services are not configured to detect, process and/or secure Advanced Protocol transactions and neither Client nor the Coinbase Entities will be able to retrieve any unsupported Advanced Protocol. Coinbase shall have no liability, obligation or responsibility whatsoever in respect to Advanced Protocols.

17. Set-off

If any amounts cannot be included within the Net Payment, such amounts shall be excluded but may still be netted against any other similarly excluded amounts. Upon the occurrence of a Setoff Event, each Coinbase Entity may also (a) liquidate, apply and set off any or all Client Assets (as such term is defined in the MTA) against any Net Payment, unpaid trade credits, or any other obligation owed by Client to any Coinbase Entity and (b) set off and net any Net Payment or any other obligation owed to the Client by any Coinbase Entity against (i) any or all collateral or margin posted by any Coinbase Entity to Client (or the U.S. dollar value thereof, determined by Coinbase in its sole discretion on the basis of a recent price at which the relevant Digital Asset was sold to customers on the Trading Platform); and (ii) any Net Payment, unpaid trade credits or any other obligation owed by Client to any Coinbase Entity (in each case, whether matured or unmatured, fixed or contingent, or liquidated or unliquidated). Client agrees that in the exercise of setoff rights or secured party remedies, the Coinbase Entities may value Client Digital Assets using the same valuation methods and processes that are otherwise used when a Coinbase customer sells an asset on the Trading Platform (as such term is defined in the MTA) or any other commercially reasonable valuation method as determined by Coinbase in its sole discretion.

34. Client

To the extent Client is a natural person over 18 years of age, if Coinbase receives legal documentation confirming Client’s death or other information leading Coinbase to believe Client is deceased, Coinbase will freeze Client’s Prime Broker Account (“Freeze Period”). During the Freeze Period, no transactions may be completed until: (i) Client’s designated fiduciary has opened a new Prime Broker Account, as further described below, and the entirety of Client’s Prime Broker Account has been transferred to such new Prime Broker Account, or (ii) Client has received proof in a form satisfactory to Coinbase that Client is not deceased. If Coinbase has reason to believe Client is deceased but Coinbase does not have proof of Client’s death in a form satisfactory to Coinbase, Client authorizes Coinbase to make inquiries, whether directly or through third parties, that Coinbase considers necessary to ascertain whether Client is deceased. Upon receipt by Coinbase of proof satisfactory to Coinbase that Client is deceased, the fiduciary Client designated in a valid will or similar testamentary document will be required to open a new Prime Broker Account. If Client has not designated a fiduciary, then Coinbase reserves the right to (i) treat as Client’s fiduciary any person entitled to inherit Client’s Prime Broker Account, as determined by Coinbase upon receipt and review of the documentation Coinbase, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems necessary or appropriate, including (but not limited to) a will, a living trust or a Small Estate Affidavit, or (ii) require an order designating a fiduciary from a court having competent jurisdiction over Client’s estate. In the event Coinbase determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that there is uncertainty regarding the validity of the fiduciary designation, Coinbase reserves the right to require an order resolving such issue from a court of competent jurisdiction before taking any action relating to Client’s Prime Broker Account. Pursuant to the above, the opening of a new Prime Broker Account by a designated fiduciary is mandatory following the death of Client, and Client hereby agrees that its fiduciary shall be required to open a new Prime Broker Account and provide required account opening information to gain access to the contents of Client’s Prime Broker Account.

35. Counterparts

This Prime Broker Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, including by facsimile or email of .pdf signatures or DocuSign (or similar electronic signature software), each of which shall be deemed to be an original document, but all such separate counterparts shall constitute only one and the same Prime Broker Agreement.

EXHIBIT A

to the Form of Prime Broker Agreement

FORM OF CUSTODIAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Custody Agreement is entered into between Client and Coinbase Custody and forms a part of the Prime Broker Agreement between the Client and the Coinbase Entities. Capitalized terms used in this Custody Agreement that are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the other parts of the Prime Broker Agreement.

1. Custodial Services.

Coinbase Custody shall provide Client with a segregated custody account controlled and secured by Coinbase Custody (“Custodial Account”) to store certain Digital Assets supported by Coinbase Custody, on Client’s behalf (“Custodial Services”). Coinbase Custody is a fiduciary under § 100 of the New York Banking Law and a qualified custodian for purposes of Rule 206(4)-2(d)(6) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and is licensed to custody Client’s Digital Assets in trust on Client’s behalf. Digital Assets in Client’s Custodial Account shall (i) be segregated from the assets held by Coinbase Custody as principal and the assets of other customers of Coinbase Custody, (ii) not be treated as general assets of Coinbase Custody, and except as otherwise provided herein, Coinbase Custody shall have no right, title or interest in such Digital Assets, (iii) constitute custodial assets and Client’s property. In addition, Coinbase Custody shall maintain adequate capital and reserves to the extent required by applicable law and shall not, directly or indirectly, lend, pledge, hypothecate or re-hypothecate any Digital Assets in the Custodial Account.

2. Custodial Account.

2.1 In General. The Custodial Services shall permit the Client (i) to hold its Vault Balance in its Custodial Account and transfer Digital Assets to and from its Trading Balance, (ii) to deposit supported Digital Assets from a public blockchain address controlled by Client into its Custodial Account, (iii) withdraw supported Digital Assets from its Custodial Account to a public blockchain address controlled by Client and (iv) certain additional services as may be agreed to between the Client and Coinbase Custody from time to time. Each such deposit or withdrawal shall be referred to as a “Custody Transaction” and shall conform to Instructions provided by Client through the Coinbase Prime Broker Site. Client shall only withdraw or deposit Digital Assets to public blockchain addresses and accounts owned by Client or an address for which Client has conducted the necessary Know Your Customer (“KYC”) and anti-money laundering (“AML”) due diligence. Digital Assets shall be held in Client’s Custodial Account in accordance with the terms of this Custody Agreement and shall not be commingled with other clients’ Digital Assets. Coinbase Custody reserves the right to refuse to process or to cancel any pending Custody Transaction to comply with applicable law or in response to a subpoena, court order or other binding government order, or to enforce transaction, threshold and condition limits, or if Coinbase Custody reasonably believes that the Custody Transaction may violate or facilitate the violation of an applicable law, regulation or rule of a governmental authority or self-regulatory organization.

2.2 Digital Asset Deposits and Withdrawals. Coinbase Custody will process supported Digital Asset Custody Transaction according to the Instruction received from Client or Client’s Authorized Representatives, and Coinbase Custody does not guarantee the identity of any user, receiver, requestee or other party. Client must verify all deposit and withdrawal information prior to submitting Instructions to Coinbase Custody regarding a Custody Transaction. Coinbase Custody shall have no liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever for Client Digital Asset transfers sent to or received from a wrong party or sent or received with inaccurate Instructions. Coinbase Custody reserves the right to charge network fees (including miner fees) to process a Custody

Transaction on Client’s behalf. Coinbase Custody will calculate the network fee, if any, in its sole and absolute discretion, although Coinbase Custody will always notify Client of the network fee at or before the time Client authorizes the Custody Transaction. Coinbase Custody reserves the right to delay any Custody Transaction if it perceives a risk of fraud or illegal activity.

2.3 Digital Asset Storage and Transmission Delays. Coinbase Custody requires up to twenty-four (24) hours between any request to withdraw Digital Assets from Client’s Custodial Account and submission of Client’s withdrawal to the applicable Digital Asset network. Since Coinbase Custody securely stores all Digital Asset private keys in offline storage, it may be necessary to retrieve certain information from offline storage in order to facilitate a withdrawal in accordance with Client’s Instructions, which may delay the initiation or crediting of such withdrawal. Client acknowledges and agrees that a Custody Transaction may be delayed, and that Digital Assets shall not be deposited or withdrawn upon less than twenty-four (24) hours’ notice initiated from Client’s Custodial Account. The time of such request shall be the time such notice is transmitted from Client’s Custodial Account. Except as provided for in this Prime Broker Agreement, Coinbase Custody makes no representations or warranties with respect to the availability and/or accessibility of (1) the Digital Assets, (2) a Custody Transaction, (3) the Custodial Account, or (4) the Custodial Services. While Coinbase Custody will make reasonable efforts to process Client initiated deposits in a timely manner, Coinbase Custody makes no representations or warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete processing as such processing is dependent upon many factors outside of Coinbase Custody’s control.

2.4 Supported Digital Assets. The Custodial Services are available only in connection with those Digital Assets that Coinbase Custody, in its sole discretion, decides to support, which may change from time to time. Prior to initiating a deposit of Digital Asset to Coinbase Custody, Client must confirm that Coinbase Custody offers Custodial Services for that specific Digital Asset. By initiating a deposit of any Digital Asset to a Custodial Account, Client attests that Client has confirmed that the Digital Asset being transferred is a supported Digital Asset offered by Coinbase Custody. Under no circumstances should Client attempt to use the Custodial Services to deposit or store Digital Assets in any forms that are not supported by Coinbase Custody. Depositing or attempting to deposit Digital Assets that are not supported by Coinbase Custody may result in such Digital Asset being irretrievable by Client and Coinbase Custody. Client shall be fully responsible and liable, and Coinbase Custody shall have no liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever, regarding any unsupported Digital Asset sent or attempted to be sent to it, or regarding any attempt to use the Custodial Services for Digital Assets that Coinbase Custody does not support. Digital Assets supported by Coinbase Custody shall be listed on the Coinbase Prime Broker Site. Coinbase Custody recommends that Client deposit a small amount of supported Digital Asset as a test prior to initiating a deposit of a significant amount of supported Digital Asset. Coinbase Custody shall provide Client with thirty (30) days’ written notice before ceasing to support a Digital Asset, unless Coinbase Custody is required to cease such support by court order, statute, law, rule (including a self-regulatory organization rule), regulation, code, or other similar requirement.

2.5 Use of the Custodial Services. Client acknowledges and agrees that Coinbase Custody may monitor use of the Custodial Account and the Custodial Services and the resulting information may be utilized, reviewed, retained and or disclosed by Coinbase Custody for its internal purposes or in accordance with the rules of any applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory organization or as otherwise may be required to comply with relevant law, sanctions programs, legal process or government request.

2.6 Independent Verification. If Client is subject to Rule 206(4)-2 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, or otherwise is required to provide audited financial statements or other verification of Client’s Digital Assets, then Coinbase Custody shall, upon written request, provide Client, Client’s authorized representative, or Client’s authorized independent public accountant confirmation of or access to information sufficient to confirm (i) Client’s Digital Assets as of the date of an examination conducted pursuant to Rule 206(4)-2(a)(4) or other applicable law, rule, or requirement), and (ii) Client’s Digital Assets are held either in a separate account under Client’s name or in accounts under Client’s name as agent or trustee for Client’s clients.

2.7 Third Party Payments. The Custodial Services are not intended to facilitate third party payments of any kind. As such, Coinbase Custody has no control over, or liability for, the delivery, quality, safety, legality or any other aspect of any goods or services that Client may purchase or sell to or from a third party (including other users of Custodial Services) involving Digital Assets that Client intends to store, or have stored, in Client’s Custodial Account.

2.8 Termination, and Cancellation. If Coinbase Custody closes Client’s Custodial Account or terminates Client’s use of the Custodial Services, Client will be permitted to withdraw Digital Assets associated with Client’s Custodial Account for a period of up to ninety (90) days following the date of deactivation or cancellation to the extent not prohibited (i) under applicable law, including applicable sanctions programs, or (ii) by a facially valid subpoena, court order, or binding order of a government authority.

3. Coinbase Custody Obligations

3.1 Bookkeeping. Coinbase Custody shall keep timely and accurate records as to the deposit, disbursement, investment and reinvestment of the Digital Assets, as required by applicable law and in accordance with Coinbase Custody’s internal document retention policies.

3.2 Insurance. Coinbase Custody shall obtain and maintain, at its sole expense, insurance coverage in such types and amounts as shall be commercially reasonable for the Custodial Services provided hereunder.

4. Additional Matters

In addition to any additional service providers that may be described in an addendum or attachment hereto, Client acknowledges and agrees that the Custodial Services may be provided from time to time by, through or with the assistance of affiliates of, or vendors to, Coinbase Custody. Client shall receive notice of any material change in the entities that provide the Custodial Services.

EXHIBIT B

to the Form of Prime Broker Agreement

FORM OF MASTER TRADING AGREEMENT

Client should carefully consider whether trading or holding Digital Assets is suitable for its purpose, including in relation to Client’s knowledge of Digital Assets and Digital Asset markets and Client’s financial condition. All investments involve risk, and the past performance of a financial product does not guarantee future results or returns.

This Master Trading Agreement (“MTA”) sets forth the terms and conditions for clients to trade Digital Assets through the Coinbase prime broker execution platform (“Trading Platform”) and forms a part of the Prime Broker Agreement between Client and the Coinbase Entities. Pursuant to this MTA, Coinbase shall open a Trading Account for the Client on the Trading Platform consisting of linked accounts at Coinbase and Coinbase Custody, each accessible via the Trading Platform (“Trading Account”). The Trading Platform shall provide Client with access to trade execution and automated trade routing services and Coinbase Execution Services (as defined below) to enable Clients to submit orders (“Orders”) to purchase and sell specified Digital Assets in accordance with this MTA and the Coinbase Trading Rules set forth at xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxx/xxxxxxx_xxxxx or a successor website (as amended and updated from time to time, the “Coinbase Trading Rules”) (such services, the “Trading Services”). Capitalized terms used in this MTA that are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the other parts of the Prime Broker Agreement.

1. Order Routing and Connected Trading Venue

1.1 The Trading Platform operates a trade execution service through which Client may submit Orders to purchase or sell Digital Assets. After Client submits an Order, the Trading Platform will automatically route the Order (or a portion of the Order) to one of the trading venues to which the Trading Platform has established connections (each such venue, a “Connected Trading Venue”). Each Order will be sent, processed and settled at each Connected Trading Venue to which it is routed. Once an Order to purchase Digital Assets has been placed, the associated Client Assets (as defined below) used to fund the Order will be placed on hold and will generally not be eligible for other use or withdrawal.

1.2 With each Connected Trading Venue, Coinbase shall establish an account in its name, or in its name for the benefit of clients, to trade on behalf of its clients, and the establishment of a Trading Account will not cause Client to have a direct legal relationship, or account with, any Connected Trading Venue. The Trading Platform will not intentionally match the buy and sell orders of its clients against each other and will not intentionally settle Orders against or otherwise trade with Coinbase’s principal funds. Client acknowledges that Coinbase and its other clients may trade in their own interests on the Connected Trading Venues and could, therefore, be the counterparty to a Client Order on a Connected Trading Venue.

1.3 Client acknowledges that Coinbase has sole discretion to determine the Connected Trading Venues with which it will establish connections. Coinbase will direct Orders to the Connected Trading Venues on an automated basis and generally will not manually route orders. In designing algorithms that determine an Order’s routing logic, Coinbase considers a variety of factors relating to the Order and the Connected Trading Venues, including the speed of execution, whether the venue is able to consummate off-chain transactions, the availability of efficient and reliable systems, the level of service provided, and the cost of executing orders. Coinbase may receive cash payments or other financial incentives (such as reciprocal business arrangements) from Connected Trading Venues.

19

1.4 Coinbase makes no representation or warranty of any kind regarding any Connected Trading Venue, including as to its financial condition, data, security or quality of its execution services, and shall have no liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever for the selection or performance of any Connected Trading Venue. Digital Assets may trade at different prices on different trading venues, and other Connected Trading Venues and/or trading venues not used by Coinbase may offer better prices and/or lower costs than the Connected Trading Venue used to execute Client’s Order.

1.5 Coinbase acts in an agency capacity for purposes of certain Orders, and may also act in a principal capacity for certain other Orders, as specified in the Coinbase Trading Rules. In the Request For Quotation (“RFQ”) service, Coinbase may act as principal to fill Orders by providing indicative firm pricing in accordance with a variety of market factors, at its sole discretion. Each Client should independently evaluate whether such services are appropriate given its own investing profile and sophistication, among other considerations.

2. Client Trading Balance and Vault Balance

2.1 For purposes of this MTA, Client’s Digital Assets are referred to as “Client Digital Assets,” Client’s cash is referred to as “Client Cash,” and Client Digital Assets and Client Cash are together referred to as “Client Assets.”

2.2 Within the Trading Platform, Coinbase provides access to two types of accounts with balances relating to Client Assets: (1) the “Trading Balance” (as described below in Section 2.3) and (2) the “Vault Balance” (as described below in Section 2.5). The Trading Account provides a record of both the Trading Balance and the Vault Balance. Client determines the allocation of its Client Digital Assets between the Trading Balance and the Vault Balance. Maintenance of the Vault Balance shall be subject to the terms of the Custody Agreement; provided, however, Client’s Trading Balance is separate from any Digital Assets Client maintains directly with Coinbase Custody.

2.3 Client Digital Assets credited to the Trading Balance are immediately available to Client for purposes of submitting an Order. Coinbase holds Digital Assets credited to the Trading Balance in one of three ways: (i) in omnibus hot wallets (each, an “Omnibus Hot Wallet”); (ii) in omnibus cold wallets (each, an “Omnibus Cold Wallet”); and (iii) in Coinbase’s accounts with the Connected Trading Venues (“Coinbase Connected Trading Venue Digital Asset Balance”). Client agrees that Coinbase has sole discretion in determining the allocation of Digital Assets credited to the Trading Balance. Because Digital Assets credited to the Trading Balance are held on an omnibus basis and because of the nature of certain Digital Assets, Client does not have an identifiable claim to any particular Digital Asset. Instead, Client’s Trading Balance represents an entitlement to a pro rata share of the Digital Assets Coinbase has allocated to the Omnibus Hot Wallets, Omnibus Cold Wallets and Coinbase Connected Trading Venue Digital Asset Balance. Coinbase relies on the Connected Trading Venues for the Coinbase Connected Trading Venue Digital Asset Balance, and Client has no contractual relationship with the Connected Trading Venues with respect to Digital Assets credited to the Trading Balance.

2.4 Client may maintain Client Cash in the Trading Balance but not in the Vault Balance. Coinbase holds Client Cash credited to the Trading Balance in one of three ways: (i) in one or more omnibus accounts in Coinbase’s name for the benefit of customers at one or more U.S. insured depository institutions (each, an “FBO account”); (ii) with respect to USD, liquid investments, which may include but are not limited to U.S. treasuries and money market funds, in accordance with state money transmitter laws and (iii) in Coinbase’s omnibus accounts at Connected Trading Venues. Coinbase will title the FBO accounts it maintains with U.S. depository institutions and maintain

20

records of Client’s interest in a manner designed to enable receipt of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) deposit insurance, where applicable and up to the deposit insurance limits applicable under FDIC regulations and guidance, on Client Cash for the Client’s benefit on a pass-through basis. Coinbase does not guarantee that pass-through FDIC deposit insurance will apply to Client Cash, since such insurance is dependent in part on compliance of the depository institutions. Coinbase may also title its accounts at some or all Connected Trading Venues and maintain records of Client interests in those accounts in a manner consistent with FDIC requirements for pass-through deposit insurance, but availability of pass-through deposit insurance, up to the deposit insurance limits applicable under FDIC regulations and guidance, is also dependent on the actions of the Connected Trading Venues and any depository institutions they use, which may not be structured to provide pass-through deposit insurance. FDIC insurance applies to cash deposits at banks and other insured depository institutions in the event of a failure of that institution, and does not apply to any Coinbase Entity or to any Digital Asset held by a Coinbase Entity on Client’s behalf. Client Cash is immediately available to Client for purposes of submitting an Order, unless a restriction applies.

2.5 At Client’s election, all or a portion of Client Digital Assets may also be allocated to the Vault Balance which is held in a Custodial Account in Client’s name at Coinbase Custody pursuant to the Custody Agreement. Such Vault Balance will be divided between segregated hot storage in Client’s name (“Hot Vault Balance”) and segregated cold storage in Client’s name (“Cold Vault Balance”). Client shall have sole discretion to allocate Digital Assets between the Hot Vault Balance and Cold Vault Balance. Digital Assets in the Hot Vault Balance may be transferred immediately to Client’s Trading Balance unless a restriction applies. A transfer of Digital Assets in the Cold Vault Balance to Client’s Trading Balance will be subject to Coinbase Custody’s standard cold storage withdrawal procedures. Client hereby appoints Coinbase as Client’s agent for purposes of instructing Coinbase Custody to transfer Client Digital Assets between Client’s Vault Balance and Client’s Trading Balance. Client agrees that an Instruction to Coinbase to settle an Order to or from Client’s Vault Balance constitutes authorization to Coinbase to transfer Client Digital Assets to or from Client’s Vault Balance as necessary or appropriate to consummate such settlement.

2.6 In all circumstances and consistent with laws and regulations applicable to Coinbase, Coinbase will keep an internal ledger that specifies the Client Assets credited to Client’s Trading Balance and enables Coinbase and its auditors and regulators to identify Client and the Client Assets.

2.7 Coinbase treats all Client Assets as custodial assets held for the benefit of Client. No Client Assets credited to the Trading Balance shall be considered to be the property of, or loaned to, Coinbase, except as provided in any loan agreement between Client and any Coinbase Entity. Neither Coinbase nor any Coinbase Entity will sell, transfer, loan, rehypothecate or otherwise alienate Client’s Assets credited to Client’s Trading Balance unless instructed by Client pursuant to an agreement between Client and a Coinbase Entity.

3. Role of Coinbase Custody

3.1 To facilitate the Trading Services, Coinbase may at its sole discretion maintain portions of the Omnibus Hot Wallet and the Omnibus Cold Wallet in one or more custodial FBO accounts with its affiliate, Coinbase Custody. In such circumstances, although the Omnibus Hot Wallet and the Omnibus Cold Wallet are held in Coinbase’s FBO accounts with Coinbase Custody, Client’s legal relationship for purposes of Digital Assets held in the Omnibus Hot Wallet and the Omnibus Cold Wallet will not be, directly or indirectly, with Coinbase Custody and the terms, conditions and agreements relating to those wallets are to be governed by this MTA.

21

3.2 Client Digital Assets held in the Hot Vault Balance and Cold Vault Balance are maintained directly between Client and Coinbase Custody in Client’s name and are subject to the terms of the Client’s Custody Agreement.

4. Cash and Digital Asset Deposits and Withdrawals

4.1 To deposit Client Cash, Client must initiate a transfer from a linked bank account, a wire transfer, a SWIFT transfer, deposit, or other form of electronic payment approved by Coinbase from time to time to Coinbase’s bank account, the instructions for which are available on the Coinbase Prime Broker Site. Coinbase will credit the Trading Balance with Client Cash once the associated cash is delivered to Coinbase.

4.2 To withdraw Client Cash, Client may also initiate a withdrawal of Client Cash from the Trading Balance at any time using the withdrawal function on the Trading Platform.

4.3 To deposit Client Digital Assets, Clients may transfer Client Digital Assets directly to the Omnibus Hot Wallet or Omnibus Cold Wallet, the instructions for which are available on the Coinbase Prime Broker Site. Client may transfer funds to and among its Hot Vault Balance or Cold Vault Balance. When Client transfers Digital Assets to Coinbase or Coinbase Custody, it delivers custody and control of the Digital Assets to Coinbase, Coinbase Custody or Coinbase’s designee, as applicable. Client represents and warrants that any Digital Asset so transferred shall be free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances.

4.4 To withdraw Client Digital Assets, Client must provide applicable Instructions via the Coinbase Prime Broker Site (“Withdrawal Transfer”). Once Client has initiated a Withdrawal Transfer, the associated Client Digital Assets will be in a pending state and will not be included in the Client’s Trading Balance or Vault Balance. Client acknowledges that Coinbase may not be able to reverse a Withdrawal Transfer once initiated. Client may withdraw Client Digital Assets at any time, subject to delays for Digital Assets held in Cold Vault Balance, and any applicable account restrictions.

4.5 Client must verify all transaction information prior to submitting withdrawal Instructions to Coinbase, as Coinbase cannot and does not guarantee the identity of the wallet owner or bank account to which Client is sending Client Digital Assets or Client Cash, as applicable. Coinbase shall have no liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever for Client Cash or Client Digital Asset transfers sent to or received from an incorrect party or sent or received via inaccurate Instructions.

5. Disruption to Trading Platform

5.1 Client acknowledges that electronic facilities and systems such as the Trading Platform are vulnerable to disruption, delay or failure and, consequently, such facilities and systems may be unavailable to Client as a result of foreseeable and unforeseeable events. Client understands and agrees that Coinbase does not guarantee uninterrupted access to the Trading Platform or all features of the Trading Services. Client acknowledges that although Coinbase will attempt to provide notice of any scheduled or unscheduled unavailability that would result in Client being unable to access the Trading Platform or the Trading Services, Coinbase cannot guarantee advanced notice to Client.

5.2 Coinbase may, in its sole discretion, take any of the following actions, and in the case of clause (i), shall use reasonable efforts to provide Client with as much prior notice as is practicable: (i) halt or suspend Trading Services, including trading on the Trading Platform or the trading of any Digital Assets or currency, or (ii) impose limits on the amount or size of Client’s Orders. Coinbase shall have no liability, obligation, or responsibility to Client as a result of making any changes to or suspending the Trading Platform.

22

6. Coinbase Trading Rules and Order Types

6.1 Client agrees to comply with the Coinbase Trading Rules in effect at the time of any Order. Client agrees to review and become familiar with the terms of the various types of Orders (each an “Order Type”) available through the Trading Service. A detailed description of the terms of all Orders is contained in the Coinbase Trading Rules. Coinbase reserves the right to modify the terms of any Order Type and the Coinbase Trading Rules at any time and without prior notice to Client, and Client acknowledges that it is solely responsible for ensuring knowledge of applicable Order Types and Coinbase Trading Rules prior to placing an Order.

6.2 Coinbase may modify the terms of, or cancel, any Order executed on Trading Platform if Coinbase determines in its sole reasonable discretion that the Order was clearly erroneous according to the Coinbase Trading Rules. Coinbase shall have no liability, obligation, or responsibility to Client as a result of exercising its rights under this Section 6.

7. Coinbase Supported Digital Assets

Coinbase determines in its sole discretion which Digital Assets to support for use with the Trading Services, as specified on the Coinbase Prime Broker Site. Not all Digital Assets supported for Custodial Services are also supported for Trading Services.

8. Coinbase Execution Services

8.1 At Coinbase’s sole discretion, Client may elect to submit Orders to Coinbase Execution Services (“CES”), a Trading Service through which CES personnel will execute Orders on behalf of Client. CES will execute Orders by using automated trade routing services through Client’s Prime Broker Account or by filling Orders on Coinbase’s over-the-counter (“OTC”) trading service (“OTC Services”). Coinbase has sole and absolute discretion to accept or reject any Order. Coinbase and Client may communicate regarding Instructions related to Orders on a mutually agreed communication medium, including instant messaging, email, and telephone.

8.2 CES brokers Orders on a commercially reasonable basis as Client’s agent and may exercise discretion in executing Orders. Client must pre-fund its Trading Balance and/or establish a credit arrangement with Coinbase prior to submitting Orders. By electing to use CES, Client agrees that it is authorizing CES personnel to access its Prime Broker Account to initiate and execute Orders. Client acknowledges that CES personnel will retain access to the Client Prime Broker Account until Client provides Coinbase with Instructions to terminate such access. Absent express written agreement between the Parties, Coinbase will accept Orders only from Authorized Representatives that are designated in the Client’s Prime Broker Account as having trading authority with respect to the Prime Broker Account.

8.3 For OTC Services, CES personnel will confirm the terms of an Order (which terms shall include asset, quantity, price, settlement timing and fees) with Client prior to executing the Order. Coinbase has policies and procedures in place that are reasonably designed to prevent the disclosure of any Client identity to its OTC counterparty. Coinbase may, in its sole and absolute discretion, accept the following statements (or similar or analogous statements) as Client’s final and binding agreement to the terms of an Order: “done,” “I buy,” “bought,” “I sell,” or “sold.” A completed, executed and settled Order will be reflected in Client’s Prime Broker Account.

23

8.4 For Orders fulfilled via OTC Services (“OTC Orders”), each of Client’s and its OTC counterparty’s confirmations of the terms of the OTC Order deems such OTC Order as binding and final, and thereby executed. Client’s failure to timely settle an executed OTC Order in accordance with the settlement terms will constitute a default under the Coinbase Prime Brokerage Agreement. Upon Client’s default of an OTC Order:

(a) In addition to all rights under this Prime Broker Agreement, Coinbase may exercise any rights of a secured creditor with respect to its interests in Client’s assets, and may exercise all other rights under agreements between Client and any of the Coinbase Entities. The Coinbase Entities agree that they will exercise their secured creditor rights, including rights to setoff under Section 17 of the General Terms, with respect to Client’s Trading Balance before exercising their secured creditor rights with respect to the Vault Balance in the Client’s Custodial Account.

(b) Client hereby grants to Coinbase a continuing first priority security interest in, lien on and right of set off against all of Client’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, in Client’s Trading Balance and Vault Balance in the Client’s Custodial Account together with proceeds thereof, in order to secure repayment of costs, fees, and all other obligations of Client to Coinbase arising hereunder from time to time. Client shall execute such documents and take such other actions as Coinbase shall reasonably request in order to perfect and maintain the priority of the Coinbase’s security interest with respect to Client’s Trading Balance and Vault Balance in Client’s Custodial Account.

(c) Client hereby authorizes Coinbase Custody, as securities intermediary with respect to the Custodial Account, to comply with all instructions and entitlement orders from Coinbase, as secured party, with respect to the disposition of assets in Client’s Vault Balance in the Custodial Account as contemplated herein without further consent or direction from Client or any other party. Coinbase Custody agrees to follow such instructions and entitlement orders without further consent or direction from Client or any other party.

(d) Without prior notice to Client, Coinbase shall have the right to: (i) transfer Client Assets from Client’s Trading Balance to Coinbase to settle the OTC Order subject to default, and/or (ii) liquidate or cancel outstanding OTC Orders (including OTC Orders that have been submitted or are in the process of being fulfilled).

(e) Without prior notice to Client, Coinbase may suspend or terminate the Client’s ability to receive extensions of credit from Coinbase Credit, regardless of whether Client has cured the default.

If the above actions are not sufficient to satisfy all obligations of Client to Coinbase in respect of OTC Orders subject to default, Coinbase shall have the right to liquidate any and all of Client’s assets and positions held with Coinbase or Coinbase Custody, including the Trading Balance and Vault Balance in Client’s Custodial Account, to cover any Losses incurred by Client’s failure to settle the OTC Order. In connection with liquidating such assets, Client authorizes Coinbase, in Coinbase’s sole discretion, to liquidate any of Client’s Digital Assets in a commercially reasonable sale at the market price that otherwise applies to such Digital Assets at the time of liquidation, without regard to whether Client would recognize a gain or loss on such sale or would recognize a greater or lesser gain or loss if different Digital Assets were sold. Client understands that the value of Digital Assets may rise or fall quickly, and Coinbase has no obligation to liquidate Client’s Digital Assets at a time that provides the best price for Client. Client agrees that Digital Assets held in its Trading Balance and the Vault Balance in Client’s Custodial Account are of a kind or type customarily sold on recognized markets, subject to standard price quotations and may decline

24

speedily in value. Client agrees that if Coinbase exercises its setoff rights or secured party remedies against Client’s Digital Assets, that Coinbase may value such Digital Assets using the same valuation method and same process that is otherwise used when Digital Assets are sold on the Trading Platform or any other commercially reasonable valuation method. A sale by Coinbase of Client’s Digital Assets, without notice, at a private sale using the valuation and method described above shall be a commercially reasonable method of disposition.

9. Determination of Suitability; All Risks Not Disclosed

Coinbase’s provision of the Trading Services is neither a recommendation that Client enter into a particular Order nor a representation that any product described on the Trading Platform is suitable or appropriate for Client. Many of the Trading Services described on Trading Platform involve significant risks, and Client should not use the Trading Services unless it has fully understood all such risks and has independently determined that such Orders are appropriate. Any discussion of the risks contained in this MTA or on the Trading Platform should not be considered to be a disclosure of all risks or a complete discussion of the applicable risks.

10. Characterization of Trading Services; Not a Registered Broker-Dealer or Investment Adviser

Client understands and acknowledges that no transactions executed in connection with Client’s Trading Account or the Trading Services are securities transactions, and Coinbase is not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a broker-dealer or an investment adviser or licensed under any state securities laws. Coinbase is not acting as a fiduciary in respect of Client (including in connection with its rights under this MTA) and does not have any responsibility under the standards governing the conduct of broker-dealers, fiduciaries, investment advisers or investment managers. Client agrees and acknowledges that any information or advice provided by Coinbase or any other Coinbase Entity does not and will not serve as the basis of any investment decision by Client.

11. Coinbase Corporate Accounts

Coinbase and its affiliates may transact through Trading Accounts on the Trading Platform (“Coinbase Corporate Accounts”) for purposes including inventory management, to facilitate Client Orders, and for other corporate purposes. To the extent that a Coinbase Corporate Account transacts on the Trading Platform, the Coinbase Corporate Account (i) will not have any special priority vis-a-vis Client Orders and will be subject to the Coinbase Trading Rules, (ii) will trade only on Market Data available to all Clients, and (iii) will not access any non-public data of other Clients. Coinbase’s internal ledger will indicate the amount of each Digital Asset held for each client and each such Coinbase Corporate Account.

12. Term, Termination and Suspension

12.1 Regardless of any other provision of this MTA, Coinbase may, in its sole discretion, suspend, restrict or terminate the Client’s Trading Services, including by suspending, restricting or closing the Client’s Trading Account, in accordance with the General Terms.

12.2 If Client is subject to termination, Client agrees to transfer any Client Assets off the Trading Platform within sixty (60) days of receipt of the termination notice unless such transfer is otherwise prohibited (i) under applicable law, including any sanctions programs, or (ii) by a facially valid subpoena or court order. Client agrees to promptly provide Coinbase with Instructions as to where its Client Assets should be transferred, and agrees that failure to do so within sixty (60) days of receipt of notice of termination may result in Client Assets being transferred to the Client’s linked bank account or Digital Asset wallet on file, in each case subject to off-set for any outstanding obligations to any Coinbase Entity in accordance with the General Terms. Final disbursement of assets may be delayed until any remaining obligations or indebtedness have been satisfied. Client is responsible for all debits, costs, commissions, and losses arising from any actions Coinbase must take to liquidate or close transactions in the Client’s Trading Account.

25

13. Unclaimed Property

If Coinbase is holding Client Assets in the Trading Balance, has no record of Client’s use of the Trading Services for an extended period, and is otherwise unable to contact Client, Coinbase may be required under applicable laws, rules or regulations to report these assets as unclaimed property and to deliver such unclaimed property to the applicable authority. Coinbase may deduct a dormancy fee or other administrative charge from such unclaimed funds, as permitted by applicable laws, rules or regulations.

EXHIBIT C

to the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement

COINBASE POST-TRADE FINANCING AGREEMENT

1. Introduction

This Coinbase Post-Trade Financing Agreement (“PTFA”) dated as of December 20, 2023 pursuant to the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement dated as of December 4, 2023 (including the Custody Agreement, and the Coinbase Master Trading Agreement), as amended from time to time, is entered into by and among the Client (as “Borrower”), Coinbase Credit (“Lender”), Coinbase, Inc. (“Agent” or “Coinbase”), and Coinbase Custody as agent with respect to the Borrower’s balance of Digital Assets held in its Custodial Account (including any Vault Balance) pursuant to Borrower’s Custody Agreement to govern the extension of credit from Lender to Borrower for use in connection with trading Digital Assets on Agent’s Trading Platform. “Digital Assets” shall mean a digital asset (also called a “cryptocurrency,” “virtual currency,” “digital currency,” or “digital commodity”) such as bitcoin, which is based on the cryptographic protocol of a computer network that may be (i) centralized or decentralized, (ii) closed or open-source, and (iii) used as a medium of exchange and/or store of value. Lender extends Trade Credits to Borrower in its sole discretion.

Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this PTFA shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement.

2. Trade Credits and Trading

Xxxxxx agrees to lend to Borrower a specific quantity of Cash and/or Digital Assets in connection with the purchase or sale of Digital Assets via the Agent’s Trading Platform (“Trade Credits”) up to the Authorized Amount for use on the Trading Platform. In the absence of Trade Credits or other financing arrangement authorized by Agent, Borrower must pre-fund its Trading Balance on Agent’s Trading Platform with Cash or Digital Assets (collectively and as defined in the MTA, “Client Assets”) in order to buy or sell Digital Assets. Trade Credits may only be available for specified Digital Assets, as determined by Lender in its sole discretion. “Cash” shall mean USD or any other currency as agreed between the Borrower and Lender pursuant to the Schedule.

Subject to the terms of this PTFA, Xxxxxx and Borrower will agree on certain terms of the extension of Trade Credits including the Authorized Amount in a Schedule, substantially in the form attached as the Schedule hereto, that the Lender shall provide to the Borrower. The Schedule, together with this PTFA, will constitute conclusive evidence of the terms agreed between Borrower and Lender with respect to the Trade Credits. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of such Schedule and this PTFA, this PTFA will prevail.

Page 1 of 11

3. Requesting a Trade Credit and the Trade Finance Debit Account

Once Lender has approved Borrower to receive Trade Credits up to the Authorized Amount, Borrower may place Order(s) pursuant to the MTA, as applicable, in amounts up to Borrower’s then-current Available Balance with respect to the specific asset, which may include Cash, being borrowed. “Available Balance” shall mean the amount available to Borrower to place Order(s), such amount to be calculated by the Agent and communicated to the Borrower. Borrower may request extension of a Trade Credit at any time during the term of this PTFA by placing an Order(s) with Agent via the Trading Platform to buy or sell Digital Assets in an amount that exceeds the relevant Client Assets in the Borrower’s Trading Balance at the time such Order(s) is submitted. The amount by which Xxxxxxxx’s Order exceeds the applicable Client Assets available in the Borrower’s Trading Balance shall constitute the specific quantity of a Trade Credit. A Trade Credit may not be in an amount that would cause the USD notional amount of all Trade Credits outstanding to exceed the Authorized Amount. The USD notional amount of each Trade Credit drawn in a Digital Asset will be determined by Agent, on the basis of the price for that Digital Asset that the Agent is indicating via the Trading Platform.

Lender is under no obligation to continue to provide Trade Credits for certain specific fiat currencies and/or Digital Assets, and may in its sole discretion impose black-out periods during which Trade Credits for any or all fiat currencies and/or Digital Assets may be unavailable, provided, however, that Lender will provide Borrower advance notice of such black-out periods if feasible to do so.

Xxxxxx will establish in the name of Xxxxxxxx a ledger entry for purposes of tracking Trade Credits extended by Lender (“Trade Finance Debit Account”). The Trade Finance Debit Account shall reflect the cumulative Trade Credits that Lender has extended during each Defined Interval (as defined below), both in terms of the aggregate notional value of the Trade Credits and the Trade Credits denominated in specific Digital Assets. The Trade Finance Debit Account shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, of the amount of Trade Credits extended by the Lender to the Borrower. “Defined Interval” shall mean a twenty-four (24) hour period starting at 6:00 A.M. ET (or such other time as may be notified by Lender to Borrower from time to time) on any day that Xxxxxx has extended Trade Credit to Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that Xxxxxx extends Trade Credit to Borrower prior to 6:00 A.M. ET on any given day, such notional amount of Trade Credit shall be included in the aggregation of the Authorized Amount for the immediately prior day. Lender or Agent may revise the Defined Interval time period referenced above upon 5 business days prior notice to Borrower.

Each separate extension of Trade Credits is due and payable by the Settlement Deadline (as defined below) for that Trade Credit, as dictated in Section 5.

Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx agree that Xxxxxxxx may use the Trade Credits extended hereunder exclusively for the purpose of the execution of trades on the Trading Platform. Xxxxxxxx agrees that it is required to maintain the Trading Balance to be equal to or greater than the USD notional value of all outstanding Trade Credits at the time of execution of trades on the Trading Platform, by asset, until such Trade Credits have been repaid.

Page 2 of 11

For the avoidance of doubt, Xxxxxxxx acknowledges that this PTFA is not intended to be utilized for short selling of Digital Assets.

4. Credit Protection

(a)    “Financial Assets” Election. Each Party hereby agrees that any Digital Assets and any item of property (whether investment property, financial asset, security, general intangible or instrument (each as defined in the UCC) or Cash) and all proceeds of the foregoing, credited to the Borrower’s Trading Balance and Custodial Account shall be treated as a “financial asset” within the meaning of NY UCC §8-102(a)(9).

(  )    The Parties further agree and acknowledge that the Borrower’s Trading Balance and Custodial Account constitutes “securities accounts” under the UCC of the State of New York, and that Agent and Coinbase Custody are each a “securities intermediary” with respect to the Trading Balance and Custodial Account, respectively, as that term is defined under NY UCC §8-102(a)(14).

(b)    Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants to Lender and Agent a continuing first priority security interest in, lien on and right of set off against all of Borrower’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, in Borrower’s Trading Balance and Custodial Account together with proceeds thereof, in order to secure (i) repayment of Trade Credits to Lender, (ii) payment of all fees and other amounts owed by Borrower to Lender or Agent hereunder, and (iii) all other obligations of Xxxxxxxx’s to the Lender and Agent arising hereunder from time to time.

(c)    No Other Liens. Borrower represents that the Trading Balance and Custodial Account shall be free and clear of all prior liens, claims and encumbrances (other than liens solely in favor of the Lender and the Agent), and Borrower will not cause or allow the Trading Balance or the Custodial Account, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be or become subject to any liens, security interests, mortgages or encumbrances of any nature other than security interests solely in favor of the Lender and the Agent.

(d)    Perfection. Borrower shall execute such documents and take such other actions as the Lender or Agent shall reasonably request in order to perfect and maintain the priority of the Lender’s and Agent’s security interest with respect to Xxxxxxxx’s Trading Balance and Custodial Account.

(e)    Control by Agent and Coinbase Custody. For purposes of perfecting Xxxxxx’s security interest in the Trading Balance, Agent holds Xxxxxxxx’s Trading Balance for itself and also as agent for Xxxxxx, and has control over Borrower’s Trading Balance for its own benefit and for the benefit and on behalf of Lender. Xxxxx agrees to follow entitlement orders of Xxxxxx as secured party with respect to the Trading Balance without further consent of the Borrower.

(e)    Maintenance of Collateral. At all times during the term of this PTFA, the Borrower shall maintain a minimum aggregate balance in the Borrower’s Trading Balance in an amount of Digital Assets as specified in the Schedule (the “Minimum Collateral Amount”). Borrower shall maintain the types of collateral acceptable to Lender as specified in the Schedule under Acceptable Digital Assets and Cash for Collateral.

Page 3 of 11

For purposes of perfecting Xxxxxx’s and Agent’s security interest in the Custodial Account, Coinbase Custody holds Xxxxxxxx’s Custodial Account as agent for Xxxxxx and Agent, and has control over Xxxxxxxx’s Custodial Account for the benefit and on behalf of Xxxxxx and Agent. Coinbase Custody agrees to follow entitlement orders of Xxxxxx or Agent as secured parties with respect to the Custodial Account without further consent of the Borrower.

Each of the Lender and Agent is authorized, but is not obligated, to use, apply, credit or transfer any and all interests in Borrower’s Trading Balance among the Coinbase Entities at any time, and without prior notice to Borrower, but only to the extent necessary to satisfy any unpaid obligations of Borrower existing under a relevant agreement with the Coinbase Entities.

5. Repayment of the Trade Credits

Xxxxxxxx agrees to fully repay to Lender the Trade Credits extended during a Defined Interval by the Settlement Deadline for that Defined Interval. The “Settlement Deadline” shall mean 6:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the business day immediately following the start of a Defined Interval. Borrower is permitted to repay the Trade Credits at any time during the Defined Interval. Failure of Borrower to fully repay the Trade Credits by the Settlement Deadline may result in an Event of Default (as defined in Section 7 below).

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Lender, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the full repayment of the Trade Credits to a time that is earlier than the Settlement Deadline (the “Accelerated Settlement Deadline”), if the aggregate value of the Borrower’s executed Orders falls below a certain threshold percentage of the outstanding Trade Credits extended to the Borrower (the “Acceleration Threshold”), both of which shall be specified in the Schedule.

Borrower must repay Lender with the same type of asset that Lender provided in extending the applicable Trade Credit. Borrower’s repayment obligation shall be satisfied only when Lender receives good funds for Cash Trade Credits or the relevant Digital Asset for Digital Asset Trade Credits. All Cash repayments must be made to Lender in good funds by the Settlement Deadline, regardless of whether the Federal Reserve wire transfer system is open for business.

Any Trade Credits that are repaid during a Defined Interval can be re-borrowed during the same Defined Interval, but must be fully repaid by the Settlement Deadline for that Defined Interval. Xxxxxxxx agrees to comply with Xxxxxx’s and Agent’s settlement instructions to fund Xxxxxxxx’s Trading Balance in order to repay the Trade Credits.

6. Fees for Trade Credits

Xxxxxxxx agrees to pay Xxxxxx a fee for Xxxxxx’s extension of financing to Borrower, and in accordance with terms specified in the Schedule (“Fees”).

Page 4 of 11

7. Event of Default

Xxxxxxxx understands and agrees that the following events shall constitute an event of default hereunder, and each shall be referred to as an “Event of Default.”

(a)    The failure of Borrower to repay Trade Credits by the applicable Settlement Deadline;

(b)    The failure of Borrower to maintain the Minimum Collateral Amount as provided under Section 4(e) of the PTFA, provided that the Borrower may withdraw any excess amount; ;

(c)    Other than as contemplated by 8(a) and 8(b) herein, a default by Borrower in the payment or performance of any of obligations, conditions, covenants, representations, provisions or stipulations between Borrower and Lender, Agent, Coinbase Custody, or other Coinbase Entities in this PTFA or any other agreement provided that, the Borrower shall have twenty four (24) hours after notice from Lender or Agent to cure such default;

(  )    Any event or circumstance occurs or exists that has a material adverse effect on the business, operations, prospects, property, assets, liabilities or financial condition of Borrower, taken as a whole, or has a material adverse effect on the ability of Borrower to perform its obligations under this PTFA or any other agreement, including the ability to repay any and all outstanding Trade Credits;

(d)    Any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings for the relief of debtors or dissolution proceedings are instituted by or against the Borrower;

(e)    If Borrower notifies Lender of its inability to or its intention not to perform its obligations under this PTFA or any other agreement, or otherwise disaffirms, rejects, or repudiates any of its obligations this PTFA or any other agreement.

8. Remedies on Default

If Borrower fails to make payment of Trade Credits by the applicable Settlement Deadline or Accelerated Settlement Deadline, or pay any other amounts due hereunder when due, Agent, on behalf of Lender, may freeze the Borrower’s ability to use the Trading Platform.

Additionally, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default:

(a)    Any outstanding extension of Trade Credit shall be immediately due and payable.

(b)    In addition to all rights under the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement, Lender or Agent may exercise any rights of a secured creditor with respect to its interests in Borrower’s assets, and may exercise all other rights under Agreements between Borrower and Lender, Agent or Coinbase Custody, including the Lender’s, Agent’s or Coinbase Custody’s rights under the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement. Xxxxxx and Agent agree that they will exercise their secured creditor rights with respect to the Trading Balance before exercising their secured creditor rights with respect to the Custodial Account.

Page 5 of 11

(c)    Borrower hereby authorizes Agent, as securities intermediary with respect to the Trading Balance, to comply with all instructions and entitlement orders from Xxxxxx, as secured party, with respect to the disposition of assets in Borrower’s Trading Balance as contemplated herein without further consent or direction from Borrower or any other party. Agent agrees to follow such instructions and entitlement orders without further consent or direction from Borrower or any other party. Borrower hereby authorizes Coinbase Custody, as securities intermediary with respect to the Custodial Account, to comply with all instructions and entitlement orders from Lender or Agent, as secured party, with respect to the disposition of assets in Borrower’s Custodial Account as contemplated herein without further consent or direction from Borrower or any other party. Coinbase Custody agrees to follow such instructions and entitlement orders without further consent or direction from Borrower or any other party.

(d)    Without prior notice to Xxxxxxxx, Lender shall have the right to instruct Agent (and Agent agrees to comply with such instruction) to: (i) transfer the Borrower’s Client Assets from the Borrower’s Trading Balance to the Lender to repay the unpaid Trade Credits, and/or (ii) liquidate or cancel outstanding Orders (including Orders that have been submitted or are in the process of being fulfilled).

(e)    Without prior notice to Borrower, Lender may suspend or terminate the Borrower’s ability to receive extensions of Trade Credits, regardless of whether Borrower has cured the Event of Default.

If the above actions are not sufficient to satisfy all obligations of Borrower to Lender and Agent, Lender or Agent shall have the right to liquidate any and all of Borrower’s assets and positions held with Lender or Agent, including the Trading Balance and the Custodial Account, to cover any losses incurred by Xxxxxxxx’s failure to repay the Trade Credits. In connection with liquidating such assets, Borrower authorizes Lender or Agent, on Xxxxxx’s behalf, in Xxxxxx’s sole discretion, to liquidate any of Borrower’s Digital Assets in a commercially reasonable sale at the market price that otherwise applies to such Digital Assets at the time of liquidation, without regard to whether Borrower would recognize a gain or loss on such sale or would recognize a greater or lesser gain or loss if different Digital Assets were sold. Borrower understands that the value of Digital Assets may rise or fall quickly, and neither Lender nor Agent has any obligation to liquidate Borrower’s Digital Assets at a time that provides the best price for Borrower. Borrower agrees that Digital Assets held in its Trading Balance and Custodial Account are of a kind or type customarily sold on recognized markets, subject to standard price quotations and may threaten to decline speedily in value. Xxxxxxxx agrees that if Lender or Agent exercises its setoff rights or secured party remedies against Xxxxxxxx’s Digital Assets, that Lender or Agent may value such Digital Assets using the same valuation method and same process that is otherwise used when Digital Assets are sold on the Trading Platform or any other commercially reasonable valuation method. A sale by Lender or Agent of Xxxxxxxx’s Digital Assets, without notice, at a private sale using the valuation and method described above shall be a commercially reasonable method of disposition.

Page 6 of 11

9. Change to Authorized Amount

Lender reserves the right to change the Authorized Amount from time to time in its sole discretion and without notice to the Borrower. Borrower shall at all times be able to view and verify the current Authorized Amount on the Coinbase Prime Broker Site. Borrower acknowledges that a reduction to the Authorized Amount may result in the liquidation or cancellation of outstanding Orders (including Orders that have been submitted or are in the process of being fulfilled) if such reduction in the Authorized Amount causes Borrower’s Trading Balance to have inadequate funds.

“Authorized Amount” shall mean the aggregate U.S. Dollar (“USD”) notional amount of Trade Credits that Xxxxxx has agreed to extend to Borrower during any Defined Interval, and as specified in the Schedule.

10. Financial Reporting; Information Requests

Borrower will deliver to Lender each of the following, in form and substance acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion:

(a) as soon as available, and in any event within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Borrower, the annual audited financial statements of Borrower prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), together with an audit report thereon issued by independent certified public accountants certified in the United States of America and of recognized national standing (without a “going concern” or like qualification or exception and without any qualification or exception as to the scope of such audit);

(b) within 20 days after the end of each calendar month, a monthly statement setting forth Client’s Net Asset Value (exclusive of withdrawals and redemptions), Total Assets and Total Liabilities as of such date (as each term is defined or understood under GAAP), together with percentage changes in Net Asset Value (exclusive of withdrawals and redemptions) compared to the last business day of the immediately preceding calendar month, the last business day of the third calendar month immediately preceding such calendar month, and as of the last business day of the same month in the immediately preceding calendar; and

(c) promptly upon request, such additional information regarding the financial performance, results, projections, position or business of Borrower as Lender may reasonably request, including, without limitation, (i) leverage data, (ii) portfolio composition, (iii) good faith oral estimates of Net Asset Value and (iv) portfolio liquidity.

Page 7 of 11

11. Effect of Forks or Airdrops

In the event that the blockchain of a Digital Asset for which a Trade Credit is extended is the subject of a “hard fork” or “airdrop” during the Defined Interval, Borrower will receive the benefit and ownership of any incremental tokens generated with respect to that Trade Credit as a result of the hard fork or airdrop, provided that Lender or Agent may, in their sole discretion, decide whether or not to support (or cease supporting) either branch of the forked blockchain or any airdropped Digital Asset entirely. For the avoidance of doubt, Xxxxxxxx will receive no benefit or ownership of any incremental tokens with respect to any portion of the Authorized Amount that is not associated with a Trade Credit. Xxxxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that Xxxxxx and Agent assume absolutely no liability, obligation, or responsibility whatsoever in respect to unsupported hard forks or airdrops.

12. Termination

The Parties may terminate this PTFA immediately upon giving the other Party written notice. Upon notice of termination under this provision, all outstanding extensions of Trade Credits shall become due and payable immediately. All obligations of Borrower with respect to outstanding Trade Credits and other amounts due hereunder, and rights of Xxxxxx and Agent in connection therewith shall survive the termination of this PTFA, including Xxxxxx’s and Agent’s security interest in Xxxxxxxx’s Trading Balance and Custodial Account and Lender, Agent’s and Coinbase Custody’s right of set-off under the Coinbase Prime Broker Agreement.

13. Borrower Representations and Warranties

Borrower hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date of this PTFA and continuing through the term of this PTFA:

(a)    It (i) has the power to execute and deliver this PTFA, to enter into the extension of Trade Credits contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations hereunder, (ii) has taken all necessary action to authorize such execution, delivery and performance, and (iii) this PTFA constitutes a legal, valid, and binding obligation enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

(d)    It is an eligible contract participant (“ECP”) for purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act (the “CEA”) and all U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations thereunder (“CFTC Regulations”).

Xxxxxxxx further agrees that it will at all times maintain its status as an ECP as that term is defined in the CEA and CFTC Regulations. If Borrower at any time during the pendency of this PTFA ceases to be an ECP, Borrower will notify Lender and Agent immediately. Borrower acknowledges and understands that if it ceases to be an ECP during the pendency of this PTFA, Lender will not make any new Trade Credits to the Borrower.

(e)    It has not relied on Lender or Agent for any tax or accounting advice concerning this PTFA and that it has made its own determination as to the tax and accounting treatment of any Trade Credit, any Digital Assets or funds received or provided hereunder.

(b)    It is acting for its own account.
