I agree to all terms of the RSU Exchange Offer as set forth in the Offer to Exchange Eligible Restricted Stock Units for Newly Issued Restricted Stock Units, dated August 19, 2025 (as it may be amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Offering Memorandum”). All capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Offering Memorandum.
1. I agree that my decision to accept or reject the RSU Exchange Offer with respect to all of my NTSUP RSUs is entirely voluntary and is subject to the terms and conditions of the RSU Exchange Offer.
2. I understand that I may change my election at any time by completing and submitting a new election no later than 11:59 p.m. on the RSU Exchange Offer Expiration Date (unless the Offer is extended in the Company’s sole discretion).
3. If I am no longer employed by or engaged as an employee of Galaxy or its Affiliates, whether my termination is voluntary, involuntary or for any other reason, as of the completion of the RSU Exchange Offer, I will not be able to participate in the RSU Exchange Offer. Even if I had elected to participate in this RSU Exchange Offer, my tender will automatically be deemed withdrawn and I will not participate in this RSU Exchange Offer, and I will retain my outstanding NTSUP RSUs in accordance with their current terms and conditions.
4. I agree that all decisions with respect to future grants under any Galaxy equity compensation plan will be at the sole discretion of Galaxy.
5. I agree that: (i) the RSU Exchange Offer is established voluntarily by Galaxy, is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by Galaxy in accordance with the terms set forth in the Offering Memorandum, at any time prior to the expiration of the RSU Exchange Offer; (ii) Galaxy at its discretion, may refuse to accept my election to participate; and (iii) the RSU Exchange Offer is an exceptional, voluntary and one-time offer that does not create any contractual or other right to receive future RSU Exchange Offers, RSUs or other equity awards, or benefits in lieu of RSU Exchange Offers, even if RSU Exchange Offers have been made in the past.
6. I understand that: (i) neither the rights nor any provision of the RSU Exchange Offer or the Offering Memorandum confer upon me any right with respect to service or employment or continuation of current employment with Galaxy or any of its Affiliates and shall not be interpreted to form a service or employment contract or relationship with Galaxy and (ii) the future value of Galaxy’s ordinary shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty.
7. I agree that the LTIP RSUs tendered by Galaxy in exchange for my NTSUP RSUs (i) are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation and (ii) are not part of normal or expected compensation for the purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments.
8. I understand that no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the right to participate in the RSU Exchange Offer resulting from termination of my employment with Galaxy for any reason, and I irrevocably release Galaxy and its subsidiaries from any such claim that may arise; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, I shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived my entitlement to pursue such claim.
9. Regardless of any action that Galaxy or its subsidiaries takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax or other tax-related withholding related to the RSU Exchange Offer and the LTIP RSUs (“Tax-Related Items”), I understand that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and
remains my sole responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by Galaxy or its subsidiaries, if any. I further acknowledge that Galaxy and/or its subsidiaries (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSU Exchange Offer or the LTIP RSUs and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the RSU Exchange Offer to reduce or eliminate my liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if I have become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of the grant of the NTSUP RSUs and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, I acknowledge that Galaxy and/or any of its subsidiaries may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. In that regard, I authorize Galaxy and/or any of its subsidiaries to withhold all Tax-Related Items legally payable by me pursuant to the terms of the RSU agreement evidencing my NTSUP RSUs.
10. I acknowledge and agree that none of Galaxy or a subsidiary or affiliate of Galaxy, or any of their respective employees or agents, has made any recommendation to me as to whether or not I should accept the RSU Exchange Offer to tender my NTSUP RSUs and that I am not relying on any information or representation made by any such person in accepting or rejecting the RSU Exchange Offer, other than any information contained in the Offering Memorandum.
11. I agree that participation in the RSU Exchange Offer is governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Offering Memorandum, including this election form. I acknowledge that I have received the Offering Memorandum and have been afforded the opportunity to consult with my own investment, legal and/or tax advisers before making this election and that I have knowingly accepted the RSU Exchange Offer. I agree that any and all decisions or interpretations of Galaxy upon any questions relating to the RSU Exchange Offer and this election form will be given the maximum deference permitted by law.

Instructions to Election Form
1. Defined Terms.
All terms used in this election form but not defined have the meanings given them in the Offer to Exchange Eligible Restricted Stock Units for Newly Issued Restricted Stock Units, dated August 19, 2025, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and separately delivered to you by email (the “Offer to Exchange”). References in this election form to “Galaxy,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Galaxy and any successor entity or its subsidiaries, as applicable.
2. Expiration Date.
The offer and any rights to tender or to withdraw a tender of NTSUP RSUs expire at 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on September 16, 2025, unless the offer is extended. Unless we have accepted the tendered NTSUP RSUs, you may also withdraw any NTSUP RSUs that you previously tendered at any time after 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on October 15, 2025 (which is the 40th U.S. business day following the commencement of the Offer).
3. Delivery of the Election Form.
If you intend to tender NTSUP RSUs in the Offer, a signed copy of the election form must be received by the Company before 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on September 16, 2025 (or such later date as may apply if the Offer is extended) by the following means:
ó Via email (by PDF or similar imaged document file) to: equity-administration@galaxy.com.
Your election form will be effective only upon receipt by us. You are responsible for making sure that your election form is delivered to the electronic mail address indicated above. You must allow for sufficient time to complete and deliver the election form to ensure that we receive your election form on time.
You are not required to tender your NTSUP RSUs for exchange. You do not need to return your award agreements relating to any tendered NTSUP RSUs, as they will be automatically cancelled if we accept your NTSUP RSUs for exchange and grant you LTIP RSUs.
The delivery of all required documents, including election forms, is at your risk. Delivery will be deemed made only when actually received by Galaxy pursuant to one of the methods of delivery noted above. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery. We intend to confirm the receipt of your election form by email within two business days. Please note that if you submit an election form that is received by us within the last two business days prior to the expiration of the Offer, time constraints may prevent us from providing a confirmation by email prior to the expiration of the Offer. If you have not received such a confirmation, it is your responsibility to ensure that your election form is received by Galaxy before expiration of the Offer. Only election forms that are properly completed, signed and dated and actually received by Galaxy at the address or email above before the expiration date will be deemed valid elections. Elections submitted by any other means, including hand delivery, interoffice mail, text message or facsimile, are not permitted.
Our receipt of your election form is not by itself an acceptance of your NTSUP RSUs for exchange. For purposes of the Offer, we will be deemed to have accepted NTSUP RSUs for exchange that are validly tendered for exchange and not properly withdrawn as of the time when we give oral or written notice to the NTSUP RSU holders generally of our acceptance of NTSUP RSUs for exchange. The notice may be made by press release, email or other method of communication.
Any confirmation of receipt sent to you merely will be a notification that we have received your election and does not mean that your tendered NTSUP RSUs have been cancelled. Your tendered NTSUP RSUs that are accepted for exchange will be cancelled on the same calendar day as the expiration of the Offer (but following the expiration of the Offer). The cancellation date is currently scheduled to be September 16, 2025.
Galaxy will not accept any alternative, conditional or contingent elections.
4. Withdrawal and Additional Elections.
Elections to exchange NTSUP RSUs pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time before the expiration of the Offer, currently expected to be 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on September 16, 2025. If Galaxy extends the Offer beyond that time, you may withdraw your tendered NTSUP RSUs at any time until the extended expiration of the Offer.
To withdraw your NTSUP RSUs tendered for exchange, a properly completed, signed and dated withdrawal form must be received by Galaxy before 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on September 16, 2025 (or such later date as may apply if the offer is extended) by the following means:
ó Via email (by PDF or similar imaged document file) to: equity-administration@galaxy.com.
NTSUP RSUs validly withdrawn will not be deemed validly tendered for exchange in the Offer, unless you validly re-elect to tender those NTSUP RSUs for exchange before the expiration date.
To re-elect to exchange your withdrawn NTSUP RSUs, you must submit a new, properly completed, signed and dated election form that is received by Galaxy before 11:59 P.M., Eastern Time, on September 16, 2025 (or such later date as may apply if the offer is extended) by following the procedures described in Instruction 3 above and submitting your election form by email.
Your new election form must include the required information regarding the NTSUP RSUs you want to exchange and must be signed and clearly dated after the date of your prior election form and any withdrawal form you have submitted. Upon the receipt of such a new, properly completed, signed and dated election, any previously submitted election forms and/or withdrawal forms will be disregarded and will be considered replaced in full by the new election form. You will be bound by the last properly submitted election form and/or withdrawal form we receive prior to the expiration date.
5. No Partial Tenders; Indemnity.
If you elect to participate in the Offer, you must exchange all of the shares subject to NTSUP RSUs that you hold.
If you are an eligible holder with NTSUP RSUs that is subject to a domestic relations order or notice of joinder (or comparable legal document as the result of the end or contemplated end of a marriage or domestic partnership), and a person who is not an employee of Galaxy or one of its subsidiaries or a director of Galaxy beneficially owns or has informed Galaxy that he or she claims a portion of that NTSUP RSUs, you may accept the Offer with respect to the entire remaining outstanding portion of the NTSUP RSUs if so directed by the beneficial owner as to his or her portion in accordance with the domestic relations order or comparable legal documents. We are not accepting partial tenders of NTSUP RSUs. Therefore, you may not accept the Offer with respect to a portion of your NTSUP RSUs that are beneficially owned by you while rejecting it with respect to the portion beneficially owned or claimed to be beneficially owned by someone else, or vice versa. We will respect an election to exchange all of your NTSUP RSUs pursuant to the Offer that is made by you and accepted by us. However, we will not be responsible to you or the beneficial owner of the NTSUP RSUs for any action taken by you with respect to such NTSUP RSUs. By electing to exchange your NTSUP RSUs you will be agreeing to indemnify us with respect to any claim by a third party that he or she is entitled to any rights with respect to the NTSUP RSUs. Accordingly, you should consider carefully whether to make an election to exchange your NTSUP RSUs that is not completely beneficially owned by you.
6. Signatures on this Election Form.
The election form must be signed by the NTSUP RSU holder who is tendering the NTSUP RSUs and the signature must correspond with the name as written on the face of the award agreement or agreements to which the NTSUP RSUs are subject without any alteration or any change whatsoever. If this election form is signed by a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney- in-fact, officer of a corporation or other person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, the signatory’s full title must be identified on the election form, and proper evidence satisfactory to Galaxy of the authority of that person to act in that capacity must be submitted with the election form.

Our determination of these matters will be given the maximum deference permitted by law. However, you have all rights accorded to you under applicable law to challenge such determination in a court of competent jurisdiction.

We will accept all properly tendered NTSUP RSUs that are not validly withdrawn, subject to the terms of the Offer. We also reserve the right to waive any of the conditions of the Offer or any defect or irregularity in any tender of any particular NTSUP RSUs or for any particular NTSUP RSU holder, provided that if we grant any such waiver, it will be granted with respect to all NTSUP RSU holders and tendered NTSUP RSUs. No tender of NTSUP RSUs will be deemed to have been properly made until all defects or irregularities have been cured by the tendering NTSUP RSU holder or waived by us. Neither we nor any other person is obligated to give notice of any defects or irregularities in election forms or tenders, nor will anyone incur any liability for failure to give any notice. This is a one-time offer, and we will strictly enforce the Offer expiration date, subject only to any extension that we may implement in our discretion.
