(ii)No more than one Margin Funding Notice shall be permitted on any calendar day for which a margin demand may be made pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(i) above, provided that if a subsequent Margin Funding Notice is issued on a calendar day in respect of Section 2.06(a)(i) (a “Subsequent Margin Funding Notice”), such Subsequent Margin Funding Notice shall supersede the previous Margin Funding Notice and the Borrower shall accordingly satisfy the Subsequent Margin Funding Notice by the Margin Funding Deadline set forth in such Subsequent Margin Funding Notice.

(b)Margin Release.

If (A) at any time the Actual LTV Ratio is equal to or less than the Release LTV for five consecutive calendar days, and (B) so long as immediately before and after giving effect thereto no Blocking Event shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Borrower may, by written notice to Collateral Agent (with a copy to each other party hereto) (such notice, a “Release Request Notice”) (which notice shall be deemed to be a certification from the Borrower that the foregoing requirements are satisfied), request that the Collateral Agent direct the Custodian to release a portion of the Additional Collateral. Upon receipt of any Release Request Notice, the Administrative Agent shall provide to the Collateral Agent a real-time calculation of the Actual LTV Ratio and:

(i)if the Actual LTV Ratio is no longer equal to or less than or equal to the Release LTV, Collateral Agent shall notify the Borrower with a copy to each other party hereto, that the Release Request Notice is denied at such time; and

(ii)if the Actual LTV Ratio is at such time equal to or less than the Release LTV, the Collateral Agent shall instruct the Custodian to transfer Collateral from the Collateral Account as directed by the Borrower in an amount such that after giving effect to such requested release the Actual LTV Ratio as determined by such real-time calculation shall not exceed the Initial LTV, which transfer shall be initiated, in the case of a Release Request Notice delivered prior to 2 p.m. (New York City time), no later than 5 p.m. (New York City time) on the same day as such Release Request Notice is received and otherwise, on the next calendar day. No more than one Release Request Notice shall be permitted on any calendar day.

(c)In connection with any release of Collateral pursuant to Section 2.06(b) hereof, following transfer of all such Collateral from the Collateral Account as directed by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to release and transfer to the Borrower without recourse, representation or warranty all of the right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in, to and under such Collateral and such portion of Collateral so transferred shall be automatically released from all Liens granted to the Collateral Agent under the Pledge and Collateral Account Control Agreement without further action by any Person.

Section 2.07.Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Lender determines that a Change in Law has made it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make the Loan or to fund or maintain the Loan to be made by it hereunder, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions or there exists any condition that has the effect of making it illegal, impossible or impracticable for, or has the effect of prohibiting, restricting or materially delaying the ability of, the Lender to purchase, hold, receive, sell, freely transfer or remain the owner of any Collateral or any amount received in respect thereof, the Lender shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (a) until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of the Lender to make the Loan shall be suspended and (b) if the Lender shall so request in such notice, the Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding principal amount of the Loan, together with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement.

Section 2.08.Payments and Computations.

(a)The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Promissory Note in U.S. Dollars, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in freely transferable lawful money of the United States of America to the Lender to such account as the Lender shall from time to time hereafter specify by written notice to the Borrower at least five (5) Business Days prior to a payment date hereunder.

(b)The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender, if and to the extent payment owed to the Lender is not made when due hereunder or under the Promissory Note held by the Lender, to charge from time to time against any or all of the Borrower’s accounts with the Lender any amount

so due. The Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower following the occurrence of any such charge.

(c)Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Promissory Note shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day (except where such payment is explicitly required to be made on any calendar day including non-Business Days), such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of the Loan to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

Section 2.09.Taxes.

(a)Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.09, the term “applicable law” or “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(b)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes (other than income taxes in the jurisdiction of Lender’s Lending Office). If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c)Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d)Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount and basis of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.09, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender, by email as provided in Section 7.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

(f)Status of Lender. If the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, it shall upon written reasonable request of the Borrower (but only if the Lender is lawfully able to do so) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide within a reasonable time the Borrower, documents or other certifications, appropriately completed and executed, as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Lender.

(g)Tax Forms. The Borrower shall provide the Lender, the Collateral Agent and any other applicable withholding agent with a valid, complete IRS Form W-8BEN-E and any such other tax certifications or documentation reasonably requested by the Lender, the Collateral Agent or other applicable withholding agent (x) on or prior to the date this Agreement is entered into, (y) if any such forms, certifications or documentation previously provided by the Borrower becomes invalid or incorrect and (z) promptly upon request by the Lender, the Collateral Agent or other applicable withholding agent.

(h)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.09 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the Collateral Agent, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 2.10.Evidence of Debt.

(a)The Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender resulting from the Loan owing to the Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to the Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of the Loan. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender a Promissory Note payable to the Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of the Lender as specified in Section 2.01.

(b)Entries made in good faith by the Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to the Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.

Section 2.11.Proceeds of the Loan. The proceeds of the Loan shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely for general corporate purposes of the Parent and its Affiliates including without limitation, payment of costs incurred in connection with the Business Combination and repayment of callable debt in conjunction with the Business Combination.

Section 2.12.Increased Costs and Increased Capital.

(a)Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i)subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clause (b) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(ii)impose on the Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Loan made by the Lender or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining the Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make the Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, the Borrower will from time to time, upon reasonable request and reasonable prior notice by the Lender, pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

(c)Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 7.04.Costs and Expenses.

(a)The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Lender in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, waiver or amendment of any Loan Documents or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder after the Original Effective Date (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) provided that, in the case of the initial preparation and execution of the Loan Documents, the amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement on the First Amendment and Restatement Effective Date and the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement on the Second Amendment and Restatement Effective Date only, the Borrower shall not be required to pay an amount in aggregate in excess of US$100,000 in respect of such costs and expenses.

Section 7.06.Assignments and Participations.

(a)The Lender may assign to one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Loan owing to it and the Promissory Note held by it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement and in principal amount not less than $10,000,000, (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, together with the Promissory Note subject to such assignment, and (iii) unless (A) the assignment is to an Affiliate or successor of the Lender, including without limitation Coinbase Asset Management, or (B) there exists at such time a Default or Event of Default, the prior written consent of the Borrower to such assignment is required (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon such execution and delivery, from and after the Effective Date of Assignment and Acceptance specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have such rights and obligations of the Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish such rights (other than its rights under Section 2.09, Section 2.12 and Section 7.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from such obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). If the Lender transfers or assigns any portion or all of its rights under the Loan Documents to any

other Person, any reference to the Lender in each Loan Document shall thereafter refer to the Lender and to such other Person to the extent of their respective interests, as if such other Person had been a party to this Agreement as of June 26, 2023 up to and including the date of such transfer or assignment.

(b)By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 5.01(j) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon such assigning Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; and (v) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as the Lender.

(c)Within five Business Days after its receipt of notice of an assignment hereunder and the Promissory Note(s) subject to such assignment, the Borrower at its own expense shall execute and deliver to the Lender assignee, in exchange for each surrendered Promissory Note, a new Promissory Note to such assignee in an amount equal to the outstanding amount of the Promissory Note assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has retained a portion of the Loan, a new Promissory Note to the assigning Lender in an amount equal to its portion of the Loan. Such new Promissory Note or Promissory Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Promissory Note, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto.

(d)The Lender may sell participations at any time, without the consent of, or notice, to the Borrower, to one or more entities (other than the Parent or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Loan owing to it and the Promissory Note or Promissory Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Lender shall remain the holder of any such Promissory Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (v) no participant

under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or any Promissory Note, or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, such Promissory Note or any other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release a material portion of the Collateral, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, such Promissory Note or any other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. The Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.09, Section 2.12 and Section 7.04(c) (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.09(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.09(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.09 and Section 2.12 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or such entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Law after the sale of the participation takes place.

(e)The Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or Risk Transfer or proposed assignment or participation or Risk Transfer pursuant to this Section 7.06, disclose to the assignee or participant or party to a Risk Transfer or proposed assignee or participant or party to a Risk Transfer, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to the Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower.

(f)Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, the Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Loan owing to it and any Promissory Note held by it) including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority.

(d)The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Corporation Service Company (the “Process Agent”), with an office on June 26, 2023 at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, as its agent to receive on its behalf and its property, service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding brought in the State of New York, and the Borrower agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such service of process to the Borrower, shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the enforcement of any judgment based thereon. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Borrower in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s above address, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf.
