AGREEMENT

In consideration of the premises and mutual agreements herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Allocation of Assets.

(a) The Client hereby appoints the Advisor to manage the investment of all digital assets, digital asset derivatives, cash and other assets contained in the account (which account, together with all gains, losses, additions, and withdrawals occurring during the term of this Agreement, is herein referred to as the “Account”) established by the Client with Bitgo Trust Company, Inc., (the “Custodian”), and the Advisor hereby accepts such appointment, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Advisor shall act as the sole and exclusive investment Advisor retained by the Client with respect to the Account, and shall have sole and exclusive authority, discretion and responsibility for directing the trading of the Account at such times, in such amounts and at such prices as the Advisor shall determine in its sole discretion in accordance with this Agreement. During the term of this Agreement, the Client shall have no authority to retain any additional advisors to manage the trading of the Account, to substitute the Advisor, or otherwise authorize any other person or entity to take any action or have any authority with respect to the Account, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Advisor, provided that the Client may retain additional advisors or substitute the Advisor if the Client reasonably determines that the Advisor has engaged in bad faith, gross negligence, or willful misconduct in the performance or non-performance of its obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1(a), the Advisor hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Client may establish one or more separate accounts, including with the Custodian, which accounts shall not be subject to the exclusivity provisions of this Section 1(a).

(b) The parties agree that the Client shall deposit into the Account, in addition to other deposits, as the case may be, certain cash net proceeds and in-kind contributions of assets raised in an offering of the Client’s securities in accordance with that certain Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated on or around September 1, 2025, between the Client and each purchaser identified in the signature pages thereto (the “Initial Funding”), as follows: (i) certain Escrowed Cash Proceeds (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) shall be deposited in the Account as soon as practicable following the Escrow Release Date (as such term is defined in that certain Subscription Rights Agreement attached as Exhibit E to the Purchase Agreement), and (ii) certain Escrowed INJ Proceeds (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) shall be deposited in the Account as soon as practicable following the satisfaction of certain transfer conditions including (A) satisfaction or waiver of the Escrow Release Conditions (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), (B) establishment of a whitelisted wallet with the Custodian, and (C) establishment of the technical capabilities of the Injective blockhain to transfer such Escrowed INJ Proceeds to such wallet.

(c) The Client may make no more than one withdrawal from the Account per calendar quarter. Each withdrawal shall not exceed $10,000 in value of INJ, calculated based on the 30- day trailing time-weighted average price of INJ as published by CoinMarketCap (https://coinmarketcap.com/) on the date of the withdrawal request. Following the first anniversary of this Agreement, the Client may make a withdrawal in excess of $10,000 for legitimate business purposes if such withdrawal is approved in advance by the independent members of the Client’s board of directors and the Client provides the Advisor with evidence of such approval in connection with the withdrawal request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any withdrawal that would result in the Client withdrawing more than 50.1% of the total value of the Account shall also require the prior approval of shareholders holding not less than 50.1% of the voting power of the Client’s outstanding common shares.

2. Ownership of Account Assets. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all assets in the Account are assets of, and solely owned by, the Client and remain such at all times. No right, duty, power or authorization granted to Advisor herein shall affect or be deemed to affect in any manner the Client’s sole ownership of all Account assets. All transactions authorized by this Agreement for the Account shall be made on behalf of and at the risk of the Client.

3. Authority of Advisor. The Advisor is authorized, on behalf of the Client, to:

(a) buy, sell (including short sales), stake, and trade in (i) any cryptocurrencies, digital currencies, virtual currencies, digital tokens, virtual tokens, utility tokens, other currencies and tokens that may be maintained on a distributed ledger, and/or other similar digital assets, including decentralized finance tokens or other products based on distributed ledgers, (ii) any commodity, futures contract, security futures contract, forward contract, foreign exchange commitment, swap contract, exchange for physical or spot (cash) commodity (iii) any option, warrant or other right on or pertaining to any of the foregoing, anywhere throughout the world, or (iii) any other financial product or financial instrument or spot (cash) commodity, including spot cryptocurrencies and related derivative contracts traded on centralized and decentralized exchanges and/or in over-the-counter markets, as may be determined from time to time by the Advisor (such instruments described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, “Financial Instruments”), on margin or otherwise, for the Client’s account and risk;

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3 to the contrary, Advisor shall allocate no less than 90% of the Account to a long-only strategy principally consisting of INJ and Financial Instruments relating to INJ.

(c) make all decisions relating to the manner, method and timing of trading transactions effected in the Account;

(d) exercise voting rights and make similar decisions on behalf of the Client with respect to Financial Instruments held in the Account that are accompanied by such rights, and instruct any custodian of Account assets to take any action or non-action with respect to actions, of which the Advisor has knowledge from the Custodian or otherwise, for Financial Instruments held in the Account;

(e) combine purchase or sale orders on behalf of the Client, with respect to the Account, together with other accounts to which the Advisor provides trading management services or accounts of affiliates of the Advisor (“Other Accounts”) and allocate the Financial Instruments so purchased or sold, among the Account and such Other Accounts;

(f) enter into arrangements with brokers to open “average price” accounts wherein orders placed during a trading day are placed on behalf of the Client, with respect to the Account, and the Other Accounts and are allocated among such accounts using an average price or other equitable allocation procedure;

(g) open, maintain, conduct and close accounts with executing brokers, staking and restaking service providers (“Staking Service Providers”) and other intermediaries, and issue orders and directions to such executing brokers, Staking Service Providers and other intermediaries with respect to the application and disposition of the assets in the Account; and

4. Power of Attorney. To enable the Advisor to exercise fully its discretion in managing the Account in accordance with this Agreement, the Client hereby constitutes and appoints the Advisor as its agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power and authority in the Client’s name, place and stead to effect transactions in Financial Instruments for the Client’s account and risk, and to make, execute, sign, and acknowledge, on behalf of the Client, any and all agreements, certificates, documents and instruments necessary or appropriate to enable the Advisor to trade the Account, as contemplated hereby. The Custodian is authorized and empowered to follow the instructions of the Advisor, as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Client, in every respect with regard to any such trades, purchases or sales, on margin or otherwise, and the Client hereby ratifies and confirms any and all transactions, trades or dealings effected for the Client by the Advisor. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is a continuing power and shall remain in full force and effect unless and until this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 14 hereof; provided, however, any such termination shall not affect or be deemed to affect any transaction initiated by the Advisor prior to the effectiveness of such termination.

8. Representations and Warranties of the Client. The Client represents and warrants to the Advisor that:

(a) It has the right, power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and undertake the obligations contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and performance by the Client of this Agreement and all obligations contemplated hereby have been duly and properly authorized by all requisite action in accordance with applicable law and with the Client’s organizational documents. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Client, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Client, enforceable against the Client in accordance with its terms.

(b) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the incurrence of the obligations set forth in this Agreement will not violate, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default under, any instrument by which the Client is bound or any law, statute, order, rule or regulation applicable to the Client of any court or any governmental body, administrative agency, regulatory or self-regulatory organization having jurisdiction over the Client that would have a material adverse effect on the Client’s ability to perform its duties under this Agreement or conduct its business as presently conducted.

(c) The Client is in compliance and will continue to comply in all material respects with all laws, rules and regulations having application to its business, properties and assets, including, but not limited to, any applicable federal and state securities, commodities and futures laws, rules and regulations.

(d) There is neither any pending nor, to the Client’s knowledge, threatened, investigation, action, suit or proceeding before or by any court or other governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority or other body to which the Client or any entity or person under control of, controlled by or under common control with the Client (a “Client Affiliate”) is a party or to which any material portion of the assets of the Client or any Client Affiliate are subject.

(e) The Client is not (i) an “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), that is subject to ERISA, (ii) a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (iii) an entity the assets of which are deemed to be the assets of such an employee benefit plan or plan as a result of the operation of ERISA and the regulations issued thereunder, or (iv) an entity the assets of which are subject to laws that operate in a manner similar to Section 404 or 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

9. Executing Brokers and Counterparties.

(a) The Advisor may place orders for transactions for the Account through any executing broker or counterparty (whether on the floor of an exchange or otherwise), which may be unrelated to the Custodian, as determined by the Advisor in its sole discretion. Executed trades will then be “given up” to the Custodian for the benefit of the Account. Orders executed in this manner will result in “give-up” fees that will be charged to the Account in addition to the brokerage commissions charged by the Custodian. The Client hereby authorizes the Advisor to enter into execution or give-up agreements on behalf of the Client with the Custodian and executing brokers, and agrees to be bound by such agreements. All fees and expenses (including “give-up” fees) payable to the Custodian, any executing broker or counterparty with respect to the Account, including custodial fees, administration fees, brokerage commissions, clearing fees, interest and withholding or transfer taxes, shall be borne by the Client and shall be paid out of or deducted from the Account. The Client understands that the Advisor will not be responsible for the execution or clearance of the Client’s trades once complete orders have been transmitted to the executing brokers.

(b) The Client acknowledges and agrees that it may not be the Advisor’s practice to negotiate “execution only” commission rates; therefore, the Client may be deemed to be paying for other brokerage and research services provided by the applicable broker, dealer or counterparty that are included in the commission rate. The Advisor may derive substantial direct or indirect benefit from these services, particularly to the extent it uses them to pay for expenses that it would otherwise be required to pay. The investment information received from brokers, dealers and/or counterparties may be used by the Advisor in servicing Other Clients, and not all such information may be used by the Advisor in connection with the Account.

10. Limitations on Liability.

(a) The Client acknowledges and agrees that the actions taken by the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement are based on its analysis of data and information believed by the Advisor to be reliable and accurate, but not guaranteed. Consequently, none of the Advisor, its affiliates and its and their respective principals, managers, members, officers, directors, employees, shareholders, partners or other applicable representatives (the “Advisor Parties”) shall be liable to the Client or any of its affiliates or their respective principals, managers, members, officers, directors, employees, shareholders, partners or other applicable representatives (the “Client Parties”) or to third parties under this Agreement for any loss (including for any loss due to the action or inaction of any person or entity retained by the Client) sustained by any of the Client Parties arising out of this Agreement or the Advisor’s actions or omissions in connection herewith, including, but not limited to, losses resulting from trading errors, except by reason of acts or omissions found by a court of competent jurisdiction upon entry of a final, non-appealable judgment to have been the result of the Advisor’s bad faith, gross negligence, or willful misconduct in the performance or non-performance of its obligations under this Agreement. All trading activity concerning the Account hereunder shall be for the account and risk of the Client and, except as otherwise provided herein, the Advisor shall not incur any liability for profits or losses resulting therefrom, or any expenses related thereto.

(b) The Advisor Parties shall not be liable to the Client Parties or to third parties for any taxes assessed upon or payable by any of them wheresoever the same may be assessed or imposed and whether directly or indirectly.

11. Indemnification.

(a) The Client shall indemnify and hold harmless the Advisor Parties (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements), judgments and amounts paid in settlement (collectively, “Losses”), relating to or arising out of Advisor’s engagement hereunder or the provision of services hereunder, except for Losses found by a court of competent jurisdiction upon entry of a final non-appealable judgment to have been the result of the Advisor’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) Promptly after receipt of notice of any third party action, arbitration, claim, demand, dispute, investigation, lawsuit or other proceeding (each a “Proceeding”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Client in writing if a claim is to be made under this Agreement; provided that the failure to notify the Client shall not relieve the Client from any liability that the Client may have to the Indemnified Party under this Section 11 or from any obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Section 11, except and only to the extent that the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice actually and materially prejudices the rights of the Client. The Client shall be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding with the assistance of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party if it provides notice of such assumption within fifteen (15) days after learning of such claim. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but, subject to Section 11(c) the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the Indemnified Party’s own expense.

(c) In the event that (i) the Client fails to assume the defense within the time period described above, (ii) the Client fails to diligently conduct the defense of the Proceeding, (iii) the Proceeding seeks injunctive or other equitable relief; (iv) the Indemnified Party determines that its interests are or may be adverse, in whole or in part, to the interests of the Client or that there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are or may be different from, in addition to, or inconsistent with the defenses available to the Client, or (v) the Client and the Indemnified Party so agree, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct the defense of such claim in good faith and to compromise and settle the claim without the prior consent of the Client, and the Client will be liable for all costs, expenses, settlement amounts or other Losses actually paid or incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith. In such event, the Client shall advance to any Indemnified Party reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any such Proceeding. In the event that such an advance is made, the Indemnified Party shall agree (or, if a party hereto, hereby agrees) to reimburse the Client for such fees, costs and expenses to the extent that it shall be determined that it was not entitled to indemnification under this Section 11.

(d) The Client shall not settle any Proceeding under this Section 11 without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(e) The foregoing provisions for indemnification shall be in addition to, and shall in no respect limit or restrict, any other remedies that may be available to a party under this Agreement, at law, in equity or otherwise in connection with any breach of this Agreement.

12. Non-Exclusive Services. The Client hereby acknowledges that:

(a) The services provided by the Advisor hereunder are not to be deemed exclusive. The Advisor and its affiliates may act as trading advisor or sponsor or in any other capacity with respect to other clients, accounts and pooled investment vehicles (“Other Clients”) and may provide trading management services, give advice and take action with respect to any Other Clients.

(b) The Advisor and its affiliates may invest in, advise, sponsor and/or act as an trading advisor, sponsor or general partner or in any other capacity with respect to Other Clients that may have investment objectives similar to those of the Advisor and may compete with the Account for investment opportunities.

(c) The Advisor and its affiliates may give advice and engage in transactions or cause or advise Other Clients to engage in transactions that may differ from or be similar or identical to the transactions engaged in by, the advice given, or the timing or nature of action taken, with respect to the Account.

13. Confidential Information.

(a) During the term of this Agreement, the Client will have access to (i) trade secrets and other non-public information relating to the Advisor or its affiliates, which may include, but not be limited to: trading or investment strategies, methodologies and results; trading or investment systems; investment positions (whether of the Account or otherwise); risk management models; revenue models; quantitative and other strategies and methodologies, procedures and techniques; business plans and strategies, pricing and other financial information; lists of investors, vendors and suppliers; any confidential information of any such investors, vendors or suppliers; and other proprietary technologies and processes and other proprietary information used by the Advisor in connection with its business and/or that the Advisor or any of its affiliates is obligated to any third party to maintain as confidential, and (ii) information concerning the Advisor’s or its affiliates’ investment or trading performance, including the profits and losses therefrom, return on investment and other performance or “track record” information (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). The Client acknowledges that the Confidential Information is vital, sensitive, confidential and proprietary to the Advisor and/or its affiliates. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, clause (i) of the definition of “Confidential Information” does not include any information, materials, or data that: (x) becomes rightfully known to the Client other than as a result of the performance of the Advisor’s duties under this Agreement; or (y) is or becomes generally available to the public, other than as a result of the Client’s unauthorized direct or indirect acts.

(b)       During and after the term of this Agreement, the Client shall (i) hold the Confidential Information in the strictest confidence and take all reasonable precautions to prevent the inadvertent disclosure of Confidential Information to any unauthorized individual or entity; and

(ii) not disclose directly or indirectly to any person or entity, including, but not limited to, its affiliates, shareholders, members and investors, or otherwise use the Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever other than for the purpose of evaluating and monitoring the trading and performance of the Account. Moreover, the Client agrees to reveal the Confidential Information only to such of its representatives, officers, directors and employees who need to know the Confidential Information for the purpose of evaluating the trading and performance of the Account, who are informed by the Client of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and who agree to treat the Confidential Information as confidential and proprietary, and the Client shall be liable for any breach of this Section 13 by any of such persons or entities.

(c)       As between the Client and the Advisor, the Advisor is and shall remain the exclusive owner of all rights, title, and interest in and to the Confidential Information.

(d)       Each party acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 13 (the “Covenants”) are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Advisor’s business interests, that the Advisor would not have entered into this Agreement without such Covenants, that irreparable injury will result to the Advisor if the Client breaches any of the terms of the Covenants, and that in the event of the actual or threatened breach of any of the Covenants, the Advisor will have no adequate remedy at law. Each party accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by the Client of any of the Covenants, the Advisor shall be entitled to immediate temporary injunctive and other equitable relief with respect to such actual or threatened breach, without the necessity of showing actual monetary damages or of posting any bond or other security. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Advisor from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of any damages. The agreements of indemnity contained herein shall be in addition to, and shall in no respect limit or restrict, any other remedies that may be available to the Advisor.

14. Term and Termination
