Explanation of Responses:
1. Consists of performance-vesting restricted stock units (the "PRSUs") under the Ionic Digital Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan. Each PRSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of Class A common stock of the Issuer.
2. 98,135 PRSUs were granted in 2026 and may vest based on the average daily weighted stock price of the Company's Class A common stock over a 60-calendar-day period ("AWDSP") reaching certain thresholds, provided that the reporting person remains employed through the date of the achievement of the applicable threshold and for 6 months afterward (or, alternatively, under a "change of control" at certain valuation thresholds, provided that the reporting person remains employed through the date of the change in control).
3. On September 29, 2026, the compensation committee of the Issuer's board of directors certified that, based on the AWDSP and the valuation methodology set forth in the PRSU award agreement, the $2.5 billion threshold had been achieved, resulting in 32,711 of these PRSUs being earned; these PRSUs are scheduled to vest on March 25, 2027, subject to the reporting person's continued employment with the Issuer and the terms of the award, as amended. The remaining 65,424 PRSUs remain outstanding and may be earned upon achievement of the applicable performance conditions.
