GENERAL
ITEM 1. GENERAL INFORMATION.
(a) | Greenidge Generation Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “Applicant”) is a corporation. |
(b) | The Company is organized under the laws of Delaware. |
ITEM 2. SECURITIES ACT EXEMPTION APPLICABLE.
The Company is making an offer to exchange or purchase, at the election of each holder and subject the Cash Payment Limit described below, its outstanding 8.50% Senior Notes due 2026, CUSIP No. 39531G209 (the “Old Notes”), for:
(1) | A new series of 10.00% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “New Notes”), in an amount equal to $11.00 principal amount of New Notes for each $25.00 principal amount of Old Notes exchanged (the “Exchange Option”); or |
(2) | Cash, in an amount equal to $8.50 for each $25.00 principal amount of Old Notes tendered, provided that if the holder elects to tender on or before the Early Tender Date, then cash in the amount equal to $9.00 (the “Early Tender Premium”) for each of the $25.00 principal amount of Old Notes tendered (the “Tender Option”). If the cash required to purchase all of the Old Notes tendered under the Tender Option exceeds $3.0 million (the “Cash Payment Limit”), we will accept the Old Notes tendered for purchase on a pro rata basis. |
The Exchange Option and the Tender Option are referred to collectively as the “Tender/Exchange Offer.” The Tender/Exchange Offer is being upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in Offer to Purchase/Exchange dated June 17, 2025 (as it may be supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase/Exchange”) and the related Tender/Exchange Offer materials (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Tender/Exchange Offer Documents”).
The Company may issue up to $26,110,000 aggregate principal amount of the New Notes in the Tender/Exchange Offer. The Offer to Purchase/Exchange is incorporated by reference to Exhibit T3E.1. The New Notes will be issued under an indenture, which is attached hereto as Exhibit T3C.1 (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of October 13, 2021, by and between the Company and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the second supplemental indenture, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit T3C.2 (the “Supplemental Indenture”, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Indenture provides that the Company may issue unlimited amount of its unsecured senior debt securities (including additional New Notes) from time to time in the future.

The Company is making the Exchange Option portion of the Tender/Exchange Offer in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements provided in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933. No sales of securities of the same class as the New Notes have been or are to be made by the Company by or through an underwriter at or about the same time as the Tender/Exchange Offer for which the exemption is claimed. No consideration has been, or is to be, given, directly or indirectly, to any person in connection with such Tender/Exchange Offer, except for payment of (i) the fees and expenses of its legal advisors for their legal services, (ii) the fees of the transfer agent for its services as a transfer agent, (iii) the fees of the exchange and information agents, for their acceptance and exchange services in relation to the Tender/Exchange Offer and (iv) fees charged by the Trustee under the Indenture for its services as Trustee. The Company has not retained a dealer-manager in connection with the Exchange Offer. No holder of Old Notes has made or will be requested to make any cash payment in connection with the Tender/Exchange Offer other than the payment of any applicable withholding or other taxes in accordance with the terms of the Tender/Exchange Offer.

INDENTURE SECURITIES
ITEM 8. ANALYSIS OF INDENTURE PROVISIONS.
The New Notes will be subject to the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture. The following is a summary of the provisions of the Indenture required to be summarized by Section 305(a)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 and is not a complete description of the Indenture provisions discussed. Holders of New Notes are encouraged to read the entire Indenture because many provisions that will control the rights of a holder of New Notes are not described in this analysis. The description makes use of a number of terms defined in the Indenture and is qualified in its entirety by express reference to the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture included as Exhibits T3C.1 and T3C.2 hereto.
(a) | Events of Default; Withholding of Notice |
The term “Event of Default” in respect of the New Notes means any of the following:
· | we do not pay interest on any New Note when due, and such default is not cured within 30 days; |
· | we do not pay the principal of the New Notes when due and payable; |
· | we breach any covenant or warranty in the indenture with respect to the New Notes and such breach continues for 60 days after we receive a written notice of such breach from the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the New Notes; and |
· | certain specified events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization occur and remain undischarged or unstayed for a period of 90 days. |
The Trustee may withhold notice to the holders of the New Notes of any default, except in the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, if the Trustee in good faith determines the withholding of notice to be in the interest of the holders of the New Notes.
Each year, we will furnish to the Trustee a written statement of certain of our officers certifying that to their knowledge we are in compliance with the indenture and the New Notes, or else specifying any default, its status and what actions we are taking or propose to take with respect thereto.
(b) | Authentication and Delivery of the Notes; Use of Proceeds |
At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order (as defined in the Indenture) for the authentication and delivery of such securities, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such securities; provided, that, with respect to securities of a series constituting a medium term note program, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities of such series for original issue from time to time in the aggregate principal amount established for such series as may be specified from time to time by a Company Order and pursuant to such procedures acceptable to the Trustee. The maturity dates, original issue dates, interest rates and any other terms of the securities of such series shall be determined by or pursuant to such Company Order and procedures.
7
There will be no proceeds (and therefore no application of proceeds) from the issuance of the New Notes because the New Notes will be issued in exchange for Old Notes pursuant to the Offer to Purchase/Exchange. No provisions are contained in the Indenture with respect to the Company’s use of proceeds of the issuance of the New Notes.
(c) | Release and Substitution of Property Subject to Lien of the Indenture |
The New Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company. As such, the New Notes are not secured by any lien on any property.
(d) | Satisfaction and Discharge of the Indenture |
The Company may discharge its obligations under the securities of each series (including the New Notes) (except for those surviving obligations specifically set forth in the Indenture) when:
(1) | Either |
(A) | all securities of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) securities of such series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid and (ii) securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or |
(B) | all such securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (i) have become due and payable, or (ii) will become due and payable at their stated maturity within one year, or (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption, and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii), has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of securities of such series which have become due and payable) or to the stated maturity or redemption date, as the case may be; and |
(2) | the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable thereunder by the Company; and |
8
the Company has delivered to the Trustee an officer’s certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.
Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, certain of the Company’s obligations shall survive as specified in the Indenture.
(e) | Evidence of Compliance with Conditions and Covenants of the Indenture |
Upon any application or request by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under any provision of the Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an officer’s certificate in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in the Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an opinion of counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent and covenants, if any, have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or request, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.
