CPI Escalation

CPI Calculation

The PPA Price be escalated on each CPI Review Date (as defined in this Schedule) in accordance with the following formula:

Pn = P1 x CPI2 / CPI1

Where:

Pn = the CPI adjusted PPA Price which will apply from the CPI Review Date;

P1= the unescalated PPA Price;

CPI is the “All groups CPI; Australia” ABS Series ID A2325846C;

CPI2 = the CPI as at the relevant CPI Review Date; and

CPI1= the CPI as at 1 January 2021 (ABS December 2020 Quarter value).

For the avoidance of doubt, where the ratio of CPI2 to CPI1 is less than 1 (one), the CPI ratio for the purposes of this agreement will be deemed to be 1 (one).

CPI Review date

In respect of the PPA Price, each of the following dates which occur during the Supply Term will be a CPI Review Date:

(a)

1 January 2021 for the base date of the PPA Price; and

(b)

each anniversary of 1 January 2021 thereafter.

Net BTC Revenue and BTC Floor Price Calculation

Net BTC Revenue Calculation

Net BTC Revenue represents the profit earned by MIG at the Modular Data Centre in accordance with the following formula:

	Net_BTC_Revenue =	BTC_Revenue
		minus Electricity_Cost
		minus Depreciated_Server_Cost
		minus Site_Employment_Cost

Where:

BTC_Revenue = BTC_Price x BTC_Quantity

BTC_Price = a price in Australian dollars calculated by multiplying the prevailing monthly average USD price per Bitcoin, as displayed on a globally recognised exchange by the prevailing monthly average AUD to USD exchange rate, as displayed on a globally recognised exchange.

BTC_Quantity = the monthly quantity of bitcoin block rewards and transaction fees mined by MIG at the Modular Data Centre.

Electricity_Cost = the monthly Energy Charge payable by MIG.

Depreciated_Server_Cost = the agreed monthly depreciation expense for the mining server equipment in the Modular Data Centre, assuming depreciation on a straight line basis over the 2 years. MIG will share this information on an open book basis with CBM that is consistent with MIG’s internal and audited accounts.

Site_Employment_Cost = the monthly direct labour cost, without markup (justified by MIG on an open book basis) for permanent on-site staffing dedicated to operate and manage the Modular Data Centre.

Calculated BTC Floor Price

The BTC Floor Price is calculated at the end of the Billing Period in accordance with the following formula:

BTC_Floor_Price = BTC_Floor_Price_Base x Difficulty Adjustment

Where:

BTC_Floor_Price_Base = US$ 10,686 per bitcoin.

Difficulty Adjustment = Difficulty Current divided by Difficulty Base.

Difficulty_Current = The prevailing market index of difficulty, as listed on https://www.blockchain.com/charts/difficulty (or another similar industry public source if this is not available), based on the most recent difficulty level immediately prior to the end of the Billing Period.

Difficulty_Base = The prevailing market index of difficulty, as listed on https://www.blockchain.com/charts/difficulty (or another similar industry public source if this is not available), and set on 19 October 2021, at 20082460130831.

Marginal Cost of Production

The marginal cost of production is derived by multiplying the existing average annual delivered fuel price of AU$50/t for woodchip by its electricity conversion factor of 1.4t of woodchip per MWh exported. This deliver a power price of $70/MWh.

If Condong Power Station obtains its approvals to use recovered timber fuels that are not defined as “eligible waste fuels” under Section 3 of the NSW Energy from Waste Policy Statement the electricity conversion factor will remain the same but the annual average delivered fuel price is expected to reduce so that the marginal cost of production reduces by $20/MWh or more.
