Description of the Transactions

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the following transactions:

Asset Purchase Agreement

On August 16, 2022, the Company, Stronghold LLC, Stronghold Digital Mining LLC (“SD Mining”) and Stronghold Digital Mining BT, LLC (“Digital Mining BT, and together with SD Mining, the “Sellers” and, together with the Company and Stronghold LLC, the “Seller Parties”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with NYDIG ABL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company formerly known as Arctos Credit, LLC (“NYDIG”), and The Provident Bank, a Massachusetts savings bank (“BankProv” and together with NYDIG, “Purchasers” and each, a “Purchaser”).

Pursuant to the master equipment financing agreement SD Mining entered into with NYDIG on June 25, 2021 (the “Arctos/NYDIG Financing Agreement”) and the master equipment financing agreement SD Mining entered into with NYDIG on December 15, 2021 (the “Second NYDIG Financing Agreement” and together with the Arctos/NYDIG Financing Agreement, the “NYDIG Financing Agreements”), the Seller Parties pledged as collateral under the NYDIG Financing Agreements certain Bitcoin miners the Seller Parties purchased with borrowings under the NYDIG Financing Agreements (together with certain related agreements to purchase miners, the “APA Collateral”). Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Seller Parties agreed to sell, and the Purchasers (or their respective designee) agreed to purchase, the APA Collateral in a private disposition in exchange for the forgiveness, reduction and release of all principal, interest, and fees owing under each of the NYDIG Financing Agreements (collectively, the “NYDIG Debt”). The Sellers have agreed to clean, service, package, ship and deliver the APA Collateral, and to bear the costs associated with such activities. Following (i) delivery of the APA Collateral to the Purchasers or their designees and (ii) a subsequent inspection period of up to 14 days (which may be extended up to seven additional days), upon acceptance of the APA Collateral, the ownership of such APA Collateral will be transferred to the Purchasers or their designees and the related portion of the NYDIG Debt will be assigned to the Sellers and cancelled pursuant to a master bill of sale in accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement (each, a “Settlement”). In the event of certain failures to satisfy the inspection conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company is obligated to replace the APA Collateral that failed to satisfy such inspection conditions with comparable assets, provided that such obligation only applies once the aggregate value of such APA Collateral exceeds $173,650.68, with respect to BankProv, and $252,532.33, with respect to NYDIG.


Prior to the date on which (i) Seller Parties first breach a material obligation under the Asset Purchase Agreement, (ii) the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated or if a Seller elects not to sell any or all of its APA Collateral, or (iii) an insolvency or liquidation proceeding is commenced by or against the Sellers (the “Non-Interference Period”), the Purchasers have agreed not to foreclose on any of the APA Collateral under the NYDIG Financing Agreements. The Seller Parties also granted certain indemnification rights to the Purchasers. The Asset Purchase Agreement also provides for certain termination rights.

Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Seller Parties have granted a release from certain claims arising out of or in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder. Further, except for the payment of accrued but unpaid interest through the date of signing of the Asset Purchase Agreement, prior to the earlier of (i) the termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement, (ii) the end of the Non-Interference Period, or (iii) a Seller electing not to sell any of its APA Collateral required to be sold at a settlement, the Sellers will not be required to make payments pursuant to the NYDIG Financing Agreements (although interest shall accrue but not be due and payable) and each Purchaser, in its capacity as the respective lender under the NYDIG Financing Agreements, will not exercise any remedies available as a lender or declare any event of default as a result of the Sellers taking any actions required or directly contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement.

On September 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of the initial three tranches of the APA Collateral to BankProv pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement in exchange for the extinguishment of $27.4 million of principal under the NYDIG Debt and related interest (the “BankProv Settlement”).

On October 13, 2022, the Seller Parties completed the sale of three tranches of APA Collateral to NYDIG pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement in exchange for the extinguishment of $37.9 million of principal under the NYDIG Debt and related interest (the NYDIG Settlement). Following the NYDIG Settlement, together with the BankProv Settlement, the aggregate amount of principal under the NYDIG Debt extinguished is $65.3 million. The sale of all Bitcoin miners included in the APA Collateral that were in the Company’s possession at the Panther Creek Plant and Scrubgrass Plant at the time the Asset Purchase Agreement was executed and the related forgiveness, reduction and release of the NYDIG Debt associated with such Bitcoin miners have been completed. The sale of the remainder of the APA Collateral, and the extinguishment of the related, remaining portion of the NYDIG Debt, will be settled in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth under the Asset Purchase Agreement, including an inspection period. As of October 13, 2022, $2.1 million remained outstanding under the NYDIG Financing Agreements, such amount being related to 504 Bitcoin miners that are in the possession of U.S. Customs and Border Control.

The disposition of the APA Collateral does not qualify as a discontinued operation as it does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. While the entirety of the APA Collateral has not been sold and the entirety of the NYDIG Debt has not been extinguished, the following pro forma adjustments assume that both will have occurred.

Amendment to May PIPE Notes

On May 15, 2022, the Company entered into a note and warrant purchase agreement (the “May 2022 Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company and the purchasers thereto (collectively, the “May PIPE Purchasers”), whereby the Company agreed to issue and sell to the May PIPE Purchasers, and the May PIPE Purchasers agreed to purchase from the Company, (i) $33,750,000 aggregate principal amount of 10.00% unsecured convertible promissory notes (the “May 2022 Notes”) and (ii) warrants (the “May 2022 Warrants”).

On August 16, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with the May PIPE Purchasers, whereby the Company agreed to amend the terms of the May 2022 Notes such that an aggregate of $11.25 million of the outstanding principal under the May 2022 Notes (the “Amended May 2022 Notes”) was exchanged for the amended and restated warrant agreement (the “Amended May 2022 Warrants”), pursuant to which the strike price of the aggregate 6,318,000 May 2022 Warrants was reduced from $2.50 to $0.01. After giving effect to the principal reduction under the Amended May 2022 Notes, the Company will continue to make subsequent payments to the Purchasers on the fifteenth (15th) day of each of November 2022, December 2022, January 2023 and February 2023. The Company may generally elect to make each such payment (A) in cash or (B) in shares of its Class A common stock, at a twenty percent (20%) discount to the average of the daily VWAPs for each of the twenty (20) consecutive trading days preceding the payment date.


September PIPE

On September 13, 2022, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd. (“Armistice”) and Greg Beard, the Company’s co-chairman and chief executive officer (together with Armistice, the “September PIPE Purchasers”), for the purchase and sale of 2,274,350 and 602,409 shares, respectively, of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share at a purchase price of $1.60 and $1.66, respectively, and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,602,409 shares of Class A common stock, at an initial exercise price of $1.75 per share (subject to certain adjustments). Subject to certain ownership limitations, such warrants are exercisable upon issuance and will be exercisable for five and a half years commencing upon the date of issuance. Armistice also purchased the Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 2,725,650 shares of Class A common stock at a purchase price of $1.60 per Pre-Funded Warrant. The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.0001 per warrant share. The transaction closed on September 19, 2022.  The gross proceeds, before deducting offering expenses, from the sale of such securities was approximately $9.0 million.

Northern Data Settlement Agreement

On September 30, 2022, Stronghold Digital Mining LLC (“SDM”), Stronghold Digital Mining Operating, LLC (“SDMO”) and Stronghold Digital Mining Hashco, LLC (“SDMH”) entered into a Settlement Agreement with Northern Data PA LLC (“NDPA”) and 1277963 B.C. Ltd. (“Bitfield”, and together with NDPA, “Northern Data”) whereby the previously disclosed Hosting Agreement between NDPA and SDM dated August 17, 2021 (as amended by the Letter dated January 12, 2022, the Letter dated March 28, 2022, and the Letter dated August 10, 2022, and assigned by SDM to SDMH on or about August 14, 2022, the “Hosting Agreement”) was mutually terminated.

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, for a term of two (2) years until October 1, 2024, the Company has the right to lease from Northern Data for its exclusive use, access, and operation (i) 24 Northern Data manufactured pods (the “Northern Data Pods”) capable of supporting approximately 550 Bitcoin miners each for an aggregate amount of approximately 13,200 available slots and (ii) four Strongboxes that the Company previously sold to Northern Data capable of supporting approximately 264 Bitcoin miners each for an aggregate of approximately 1,056 mining slots for $1,000.00 annually. Following the Settlement Agreement, no future revenue share will be applicable for miners in the Northern Data Pods or Strongboxes and the Company will receive 100% of the profits generated by Bitcoin miners in the Northern Data Pods and Strongboxes. At the end of the two-year term of the Settlement Agreement, the Company has the option, but not the obligation, to purchase the Northern Data Pods and Strongboxes for an amount between $2 million and $6 million based on the prevailing hash price at the time, net of a maximum of $1.5 million of expenditures that the Company has the option to use to upgrade the Northern Data Pods throughout the two year term.

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company will pay Northern Data an aggregate amount of $4.5 million as follows (i) $2.5 million to Northern Data not later than October 3, 2022, which amount was paid to Northern Data on October 3, 2022 in full, (ii) $1.0 million to Northern Data not later than October 31, 2022; and (iii) $1.0 million to Northern Date not later than November 30, 2022.

WhiteHawk Refinancing

On August 16, 2022, the Company entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”) with WhiteHawk Finance LLC (“WhiteHawk”) to provide for committed financing to refinance the equipment financing agreement, dated June 30, 2021, by and between Stronghold Digital Mining Equipment, LLC and WhiteHawk (the “WhiteHawk Financing Agreement”) and provide up to $20 million in additional commitments (such additional commitments, the “Delayed Draw Facility”) for an aggregate loan not to exceed $60.0 million. Such loans under the Delayed Draw Facility will be available to be drawn for 180 days from the closing date of the WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement (as defined below). The financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter (such financing, the “WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement”) will be entered into by Stronghold LLC as Borrower (the “Borrower”) and secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and will be guaranteed by the Company and each of its subsidiaries. The WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement will require equal monthly amortization payments resulting in full amortization at maturity. The WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement will have customary representations, warranties and covenants including restrictions on indebtedness, liens, restricted payments and dividends, investments, asset sales and similar covenants and will contain customary events of default. The WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement will contain a covenant requiring the Borrower and its subsidiaries to maintain a minimum (x) of $7.5 million of liquidity at all times, (y) a minimum liquidity of $10 million of average daily liquidity for each calendar month (rising to $20 million beginning July 1, 2023) and (z) a maximum total leverage ratio covenant of (i) 7.5:1.0 for the quarter ending December 31, 2022, (ii) 5.0:1.0 for the quarter ending March 31, 2023, (iii) 4.0:1.0 for the quarter ending June 30, 2023 and (iv) 4.0:1.0 for each quarter ending thereafter. The initial closing of the WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement will be subject to customary closing conditions. In addition, the initial closing of the WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement will be subject to the full extinguishment and termination of all of the NYDIG Debt and other obligations of the Company and its affiliates under the NYDIG Financing Agreements, whether pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement or otherwise. As of October 13, 2022, closing the WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement and consummation of this transaction was deemed probable of occurring by the Company.


The WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement provides that the borrowings under the agreement  will mature 36 months after the closing date of the transaction and will bear interest at a rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 10%. The loans under the Delayed Draw Facility will be issued with a 3% commitment fee on the delayed draw amount, payable when such amounts are drawn, and undrawn commitments thereunder will incur an unused lien fee, paid monthly, equal to 1% per annum. Amounts drawn on the WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement will be subject to a prepayment premium such that the lenders thereunder achieve a 20% return on invested capital. In addition, Borrower has agreed to pay an alternate transaction fee to WhiteHawk in the event that (x) WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement does not close on or before October 31, 2022, (y) the initial funding under the WhiteHawk Financing Agreement does not occur on or before October 31, 2022 or (z) Borrower or any of its affiliates utilize any debt or equity financing other than the WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement to refinance the existing indebtedness owed to Whitehawk. The Company also agreed to issue a stock purchase warrant to WhiteHawk in conjunction with the closing of the WhiteHawk Refinancing Agreement, which provides for the purchase of an additional 2,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at $0.01 per share.

Panther Creek Acquisition

On July 9, 2021, the Company entered into a purchase agreement, as contemplated by the Olympus LOI, with Panther Creek Reclamation Holdings, LLC ("Panther Creek Reclamation"), a subsidiary of Olympus (the "Panther Creek Acquisition"). Pursuant to the Panther Creek Acquisition, the Company acquired all of the assets of Panther Creek Power Operating LLC (“Panther Creek”), comprised primarily of a coal refuse reclamation facility with 80 MW of net electricity generation capacity located near Nesquehoning, Pennsylvania (the "Panther Creek Plant"). The Company completed the Panther Creek Acquisition on November 2, 2021. The consideration for the Panther Creek Plant was approximately $3.0 million in cash ($2.192 million after deducting 50% of land closing costs agreed to be split with the seller) subject to certain closing adjustments, and 1,152,000 Class A common units of Stronghold Digital Mining Holdings LLC (“Stronghold LLC Unit”), together with a corresponding number of shares of Class V common stock. Pursuant to the Redemption Right, each Stronghold LLC Unit, combined with a corresponding share of Class V common stock, may be redeemed for one share of Class A common stock (or cash, in certain instances).

The Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022 and statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 18, 2022 already include the assets and liabilities acquired in the Panther Creek Acquisition and accompanying results of operations for the period. Therefore, no pro forma adjustments for this transaction are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company’s audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 29, 2022 reflects the actual results of operations from the Panther Creek Acquisition from November 2, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

Under Article 11 of Regulation S-X, the sale of the APA Collateral in the Asset Purchase Agreement described above constitutes a significant disposition. The other transactions described above for which disclosure of pro forma financial information was considered material have been consummated or are considered probable to be consummated.

As a result of these transactions, the Company prepared the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. Except as set forth herein, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022 and statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 give pro forma effect to these transactions as if they occurred on June 30, 2022 (in the case of the balance sheet) or January 1, 2021 (in the case of the statement of operations).


The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements include unaudited pro forma adjustments that are factually supportable and directly attributable to the transactions. In addition, the unaudited pro forma adjustments are expected to have a continuing impact on the Company’s results. The Company has prepared the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements for illustrative purposes only and it does not purport to represent what the results of operations or financial condition would have been had the transactions actually occurred on the dates indicated, nor does the Company purport to project the results of operations or financial condition for any future period or as of any future date. Actual results may differ significantly from those reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements for various reasons, including but not limited to, the differences between the assumptions used to prepare the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and actual results and our ability to complete, either in part or in full, the transactions that have not yet occurred.

STRONGHOLD DIGITAL MINING, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The June 30, 2022 unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the pro forma adjustments necessary to reflect the transactions as if they had occurred on June 30, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations give effect to the pro forma adjustments to reflect the transactions as if they had occurred as of January 1, 2021. The unaudited pro forma adjustments related to the transactions are based on available information and assumptions that management believes are directly attributable to the transactions, factually supportable, and are expected to have a continuing impact on the Company’s results of operations with respect to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 2 – Pro Forma Adjustments

Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet

The following adjustments have been made to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022.


a)
Reflects the net proceeds of approximately $9.0 million, after deducting offering expenses, received from the  sale of Securities Purchase Agreements with the September PIPE Purchasers from the September PIPE.

b)
Reflects the cash paid of $2.5 million to Northern Data pursuant to the terms of the Northern Data Settlement Agreement.

c)
Reflects the elimination of equipment deposits of approximately $32.6 million from the Asset Purchase Agreement on cryptocurrency machines the Company had not yet taken delivery of, which were included in the cryptocurrency machines pledged as collateral in the transaction.  There is no impact to the Company’s operating revenues and expenses for the removal of these cryptocurrency machines as they have not yet been revenue generating for the Company.

d)
Reflects the elimination of approximately $53.5 million of cryptocurrency machines under the Asset Purchase Agreement the Company had received and placed in service at various times during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021. Components of the Company’s property, plant and equipment, net impacted were as follows:

   
June 30, 2022
 
Cryptocurrency machines & powering supplies
 
$
(61,487,092
)
Accumulated depreciation and amortization
   
7,989,172
 
Net pro forma adjustment
 
$
(53,497,920
)
