ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

Subscription Agreement
 
On May 30, 2024, Bitdeer Technologies Group (the “Company” or “Bitdeer”) entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) for a private placement (the “Private Placement”) with Tether International Limited, a BVI company (the “Purchaser”). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company issued to the Purchaser (i) 18,587,360 Class A ordinary shares of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”), and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to 5,000,000 Ordinary Shares (the “Warrant”) at an exercise price equivalent to $10.00 per Ordinary Share. Bitdeer will receive $100 million in proceeds from the private placement of Ordinary Shares, and up to an additional $50 million if the Warrant is fully exercised. The Warrant is subject to customary anti-dilution provisions reflecting share dividends and splits or other similar transactions, and weighted average anti-dilution protection with respect to the issuance of ordinary shares or ordinary share equivalents for consideration per share less than the initial exercise price of the Warrant. The Warrant will remain exercisable at the election of the Purchaser within 12 months after the closing of the Private Placement, which occurred on May 30, 2024.

Bitdeer intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to fund expansion of data centers and the development of ASIC based mining rigs and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
 
Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the Purchaser (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) registering the resale of the Ordinary Shares and the Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant as soon as reasonably practicable and use reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective no later than the date 30 days after the filing thereof.

The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreement, the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by references to the full text of the respective document, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 6-K, respectively, and is incorporated by reference herein.
