Physical gold is only divisible into small pieces; Bitcoin is divisible to eight decimals. Gold and bitcoin are fungible, but fiat currency is not fungible with oth er fiat (US Dollar is not fungible with the Canadian Dollar). Gold has a high value-to- weight ratio, but it is still heavy and cumbersome to transport compared to the others. Both gold and fiat currency have been counterfeited; Gold can be verified but only through cumbersome assay. Gold is scarce, bitcoin is scarce and finite; The only constraint on fiat currency is willingness of government or central bank. Gold has the longest track record of money and maintaining purchasing power; Bitcoin's history is the shortest; Fiat currency has a poor track record. All Rights Reserved.

It sits on six acres near the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and features at its heart 48 new generation air-cooled pods enclosed by a Department of Transportation sound wall. Machines are also housed in 20 Ant boxes, an annex building and within the original data center. CleanSpark founder and CEO Zach Bradford originally visited the operation to consult on an energy project but quickly recognized the opportunity to lead one of the most important energy projects of our generation: bitcoin mining.

Situated on over seven acres, the immersion- cooled site participates in Georgia's Flex REC program and is 100% net carbon-neutral. There are two large rooms that house 20 MW of single-phase immersion - about 4,300 machines. Liquid immersion cooling, where the bitcoin mining machines are fully immersed in a specialized oil, has proven to significantly improve efficiency by reducing power consumption and extending the life of the machines - thereby maximizing financial gains.

It was purchased during the summer 2022 bear market from another bitcoin miner as an already-operational site. Bitcoin mining machines operate in multiple air-cooled buildings. A completed 50MW expansion created four more buildings filled with an additional 14,000 latest-gen miners. It draws power predominantly from low-carbon sources, such as nuclear energy. Since its acquisition, CleanSpark has contributed hundreds of thousands in taxes to the city and supported numerous local businesses through sponsorships and charities. It is a perfect place to mine bitcoin, and we are thrilled to partner with the community. *As of January 31, 2024 NASDAQ: CLSK All Rights Reserved.

PARTNERED JULY 2021 CO- LOCATED AIR-COOLED SYSTEM Copyright 2024 CleanSpark | 38#39Non-GAAP Measures This investor presentation references adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States("GAAP"). The Company's non-GAAP "Adjusted EBITDA" excludes (i) impacts of interest, taxes, and depreciation; (ii) the Company's share-based compensation expense, unrealized gains/losses on securities, and, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration with respect to previously completed acquisitions, all of which are non-cash items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company's general business performance, and for which the accounting requires management judgment, and the resulting expenses could vary significantly in comparison to other companies; (iii) realized gains and losses on sales of equity securities, the amounts of which are directly related to the unrealized gains and losses that are also excluded; (iv) legal fees related to litigation and various transactions, which fees management does not believe are reflective of the Company's ongoing operating activities; (v) gains and losses on disposal of assets, the majority of which are related to obsolete or unrepairable machines that are no longer deployed; (vi) gains and losses related to discontinued operations that would not be applicable to the Company's future business activities; and (vii) severance expenses. The Company previously excluded non-cash impairment losses related to digital assets and realized gains and losses on sales of bitcoin from our calculation of adjusted EBITDA, but has determined such items are part of the Company's normal ongoing operations and will no longer be excluding them from our calculation of adjusted EBITDA. We have not excluded our net gain on fair value of bitcoin ($36,041 in the quarter ended December 31, 2023), which we now record in our statement of operations, as provided for in ASC 350-60 and as discussed elsewhere in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, which filing is available on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission EDGAR database. Management believes that providing this non-GAAP financial measure that excludes these items allows for meaningful comparisons between the Company's core business operating results and those of other companies, and provides the Company with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating its own core business operating results over different periods of time. In addition to management's internal use of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, management believes that adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors and analysts in comparing the Company's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis. Management believes the foregoing to be the case even though some of the excluded items involve cash outlays and some of them recur on a regular basis (although management does not believe any of such items are normal operating expenses necessary to generate our bitcoin related revenues). For example, the Company expects that share-based compensation expense, which is excluded from adjusted EBITDA, will continue to be a significant recurring expense over the coming years and is an important part of the compensation provided to certain employees, officers, and directors. Additionally, management does not consider any of the excluded items to be expenses necessary to generate the Company's bitcoin related revenue. The Company's adjusted EBITDA measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in the Company's industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently. The Company's adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating (loss) income or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Although management utilizes internally and presents adjusted EBITDA, the Company only utilizes that measure supplementally and does not consider it to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation of, and should be read in conjunction with, the information and risks contained in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.
