Named Executive Officers, Footnote The dollar amounts reported in this column are the amounts of total compensation reported for our Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) for each corresponding year in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table, which for 2023 and 2022, includes our current PEO Paul Prager (PEO 1), and for 2021, includes our current PEO Paul Prager (PEO 1) and former PEO Glenn Sandgren (PEO 2).The dollar amounts reported in this column represent the average of the amounts reported for the Company’s non-PEO named executive officers (“Non-PEO NEOs”) as a group in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table in each applicable year. For purposes of calculating the average amounts in each applicable year, the names of each of the Non-PEO NEOs included are as follows: (a) for 2023: Patrick Fleury and Kerri Langlais; (b) for 2022: Patrick Fleury and Kenneth Deane; and (c) for 2021: Nazar Khan, Kerri Langlais, Claude Piguet and Kenneth Hegman.    
Adjustment To PEO Compensation, Footnote The dollar amounts reported in this column represent the amount of “compensation actually paid” to our PEO for the applicable fiscal year, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, which for 2023 and 2022, includes our current PEO Paul Prager, and for 2021, includes our current PEO Paul Prager and former PEO Glenn Sandgren (PEO 2). The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to such executives during the applicable year. No adjustments were made to Mr. Prager’s compensation reported in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table as no equity compensation was granted to or outstanding for Mr. Prager during 2023, 2022 and 2021. No adjustments were made to Mr. Sandgren’s compensation reported in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table for the fair value at year-end of his outstanding and unvested equity awards granted in 2021 as such awards were canceled and settled/exercised in connection with the Company’s completion of its business combination, including the related mergers, with IKONICS on December 13, 2021 and, as a result, such values were already included in Mr. Sandgren’s compensation reported in the “All Other Compensation” and “Total” columns of the Summary Compensation Table for the fiscal year 2021 as disclosed in the Company’s 2022 proxy statement.

The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual average amount of compensation earned by or paid to the Non-PEO NEOs as a group during the applicable year. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the adjustments in the table below were made to the average total compensation for the Non-PEO NEOs as a group for 2023 to determine the compensation actually paid.
