On January 23, 2024, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between Prairie Operating Co.

The Asset Sale closed on January 23, 2024, simultaneously with the execution of the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, in addition to the sale of the Mining Equipment, the Company assigned, and Buyer assumed, all of the Company’s rights and obligations under the Master Services Agreement, by and between Atlas Power Hosting, LLC and the Company (the “Master Services Agreement”), pursuant to the terms of the Master Services Agreement.

Notwithstanding Section 1.05(b), the Delayed Purchase Price may be prepaid by Buyer at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the consummation of a direct or indirect sale or other transfer of the Purchased Assets by Buyer or other interest therein (including by virtue of a direct or indirect change of control of Buyer, other transfer by operation of law or any direct or indirect assignment or pledge of the revenues associated with the Purchased Assets), the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest on the Delayed Purchase Price shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Seller.

Section 1.06 Events of Default and Remedies.

(a) An “Event of Default” will exist if any of the following occurs:

(i) Buyer shall fail to make any payment when and as such payment obligation becomes due and payable under this Agreement;

(ii) Buyer shall commence a voluntary proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or a substantial part of its property or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or shall generally fail to pay its debts as they become due or shall take any action to authorize any of the foregoing;

(iii) any representation or warranty made by Buyer under this Agreement shall be materially false as of the date any such representation or warranty is made;

(iv) an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced by any party other than Seller against Buyer seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of it or a substantial part of its property and such involuntary proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60 calendar days.

(b) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and has not been cured by Buyer within ten (10) calendar days, Seller will have the right to (i) declare the unpaid principal amount of and accrued interest on the Delayed Purchase Price to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Seller; and (ii) take all other actions permitted under applicable law; provided, that no failure or delay on the part of Seller in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege; provided, further, that the rights, powers and remedies given to Seller hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

Section 1.07 Non-Assignable Assets.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute a sale, assignment or transfer of any Purchased Asset if such sale, assignment or transfer: (i) violates applicable Law; or (ii) requires the consent or waiver of a Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement and such consent or waiver has not been obtained prior to the Closing.

(b) Following the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall cooperate with each other, to obtain any such required consent or waiver, or any release, substitution or amendment required to novate all Liabilities under the Atlas MSA or other Liabilities that constitute Assumed Liabilities or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements, so that, in any case, Buyer shall be solely responsible for such Liabilities from and after the Closing Date; provided, however, that neither Seller nor Buyer shall be required to pay any consideration therefor. Once such consent, waiver, release, substitution or amendment is obtained, Seller shall sell, assign and transfer to Buyer the relevant Purchased Asset to which such consent, waiver, release, substitution or amendment relates for no additional consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, applicable sales, transfer and other similar Taxes or fees incurred or imposed in connection with such sale, assignment or transfer shall be economically borne and paid equally by Buyer and Seller in accordance with Section 5.03.

(c) To the extent that any Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability cannot be transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Section 1.07, Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into such arrangements (such as subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) to provide to the parties the economic and, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, operational equivalent of the transfer of such Purchased Asset and/or Assumed Liability to Buyer as of the Closing. Buyer shall, as agent or subcontractor for Seller, pay, perform and discharge fully the liabilities and obligations of Seller thereunder from and after the Closing Date. To the extent permitted under applicable Law, each Party shall, at the other Party’s expense, hold in trust for and pay to the other Party promptly upon receipt thereof, all income, proceeds and other monies received by such Party from and after the Closing Date, to the extent related to such Purchased Asset in connection with the arrangements under this Section 1.07. Seller shall be permitted to set off against such amounts all direct costs associated with the retention and maintenance of such Purchased Assets.

Section 1.08 Security.

(a) As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance in full of Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation, payment by Buyer to Seller of the Delayed Purchase Price, Buyer hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Seller a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all Purchased Assets, and all proceeds of, accessions to, substitutions for and replacements, insurance proceeds and products of the foregoing, together with all books and records and other computer materials and records related thereto at any time evidencing or relating to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Collateral”); provided, that Collateral shall not include any Excluded Assets.

5

(b) Buyer hereby authorizes Seller to file all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and any other documents, registrations or notices as may be necessary or deemed required by Seller in order to maintain a perfected first priority security interest in and to the Collateral. Any financing statement filed by Seller may be filed in any filing office in any jurisdiction and may (i) indicate the Collateral and contain any other description which reasonably approximates the description contained in this Agreement and (ii) contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment. Buyer shall warrant and defend the right and title herein granted unto Seller in and to the Collateral (and all right, title and interest represented by the Collateral) against the claims and demands of all persons whomsoever. Buyer agrees that, from time to time, it will execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements, and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements and other documents), which are required under any applicable law, or which Seller may reasonably request, to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Section 1.08 or to grant, preserve, protect, or perfect the lien and security interest granted to Seller in the Collateral or the validity or priority of any such lien, all at the expense of Buyer.

(c) Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein to the contrary, (i) Buyer shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements which constitute Collateral, and will perform all of its duties and obligations under such contracts and agreements to the same extent as if the security interest and lien granted to Seller under this Section 1.08 had not been granted, (ii) the exercise by Seller of any of its rights under this Section 1.08 shall not release Buyer from any of its duties or obligations under any such contracts or agreements, and (iii) Seller shall have no obligation or liability under any contracts or agreements (including, without limitation, any obligation or liability with respect to the payment of any amounts at any time due and owing in respect of such contracts or agreements) which constitute Collateral by reason of this Section 1.08, nor shall Seller be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of Buyer thereunder, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by Buyer thereunder, or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Seller may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction or otherwise under any applicable Law and also may (i) take possession of any Collateral without demand and without legal process, (ii) require Buyer to, and Buyer hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of Seller forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by Seller and make it available to Seller at a place to be designated by Seller that is reasonably convenient to both parties, (iii) subject to applicable Law or agreements with landlords, bailees or warehousemen enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof without demand and without legal process, and (iv) lease, license, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of Seller’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as Seller may deem commercially reasonable.

6

(e) Upon the satisfaction of Buyer’s obligations with respect to the payment of the Deferred Purchase Price in accordance with Section 1.05, Seller shall file all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and any other documents, registrations or notices as may be necessary or deemed required by Buyer in order to terminate Seller’s first priority security interest in and to the Collateral.

Section 6.04 Certain Limitations. The party making a claim under this Article VI is referred to as the “Indemnified Party,” and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VI is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.” The indemnification obligations provided for in Section 6.02 and Section 6.03 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.03(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.03(a) exceeds one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible.

(b) The aggregate amount of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.03(a), as the case may be, shall not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price; provided, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to the Seller’s right to receive the full amount of the Purchase Price, including the full principal amount of the Delayed Purchase Price and any interest accrued thereon in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to Losses attributable to intentional fraud or any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in Section 3.07.

(c) In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based on any type of multiple.

(d) Seller shall not be liable under this Article VI for any Losses based upon or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement if Buyer had knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the Closing.

(e) The amount of any Losses for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnity under this Article VI shall be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates with respect to such Losses (net of any collection costs, and excluding the proceeds of any insurance policy issued or underwritten by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates).

Section 6.05 Indemnification Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall: (a) describe the claim in reasonable detail; (b) include copies of all material written evidence thereof; and (c) indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any Action by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense, subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Action, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Action in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any claim, including: (i) making available records relating to such claim; and (ii) furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

14

Section 6.06 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. The Parties shall treat any amounts paid under this Article VI as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for U.S. federal and applicable state income Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 6.07 Exclusive Remedies. Except in the case of intentional fraud, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VI. In furtherance of the foregoing, and except in the case of intentional fraud, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VI.
