Kroll Decl. \u00b6 25.\n\n All that remains to complete the Settlement Process is to distribute the Net Settlement\n\n\n\n1\n All terms with initial capitalization not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings\nascribed to them in the Stipulation of Settlement, dated October 24, 2022 (the \u201cStipulation\u201d)\n(ECF No. 68-1), and/or the Kroll Declaration.\n\fFund to the Authorized Claimants. Class Counsel requests that such distribution is permitted.\n\n II. Kroll\u2019s Determination of Proofs of Claim\n\n Kroll received 2,192 Proofs of Claim through March 21, 2024.2 Kroll Decl. \u00b6 6. After\n\nprocessing and analyzing those claims, Kroll determined there were deficiencies in some of those\n\nClaims. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 19, 23. Kroll notified Claimants of these deficiencies and allowed\n\nClaimants to correct or amend their Claim Forms. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 21, 23. Kroll then analyzed all\n\nsubmitted corrected Proof of Claim Forms to determine their eligibility. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 22, 24. If\n\nthe response corrected the defect(s) or affected the Claim\u2019s status, Kroll updated the database to\n\nreflect the change in status of the Claim. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 22, 24. Through March 21, 2024, Kroll\n\nreceived three (3) requests for Court Review, all of which were resolved and/or withdrawn by the\n\nClaimant. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 25. Therefore, there are no outstanding requests for Court review of the\n\nadministrative determinations. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 25.\n\n Ultimately, Kroll found that of the 2,192 claims that were received through March 21,\n\n2024, 660 Claims were acceptable in whole or in part and were eligible to recover losses per the\n\nPlan of Allocation. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 34. Of Proofs of Claim submitted, 1,532 claims were rejected\n\n\n\n\n2\n The deadline to submit a Claim Form was March 21, 2023. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 6. Through March 21,\n2024, Kroll received 43 Claims that were postmarked or received after March 21, 2023, deadline.\nKroll Decl. \u00b6 26. 8 of those Proofs of Claim were found to be otherwise eligible in whole or in\npart. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 26. Kroll has not rejected any claim for arriving late, but requests that the cut-\noff date for the receipt of any Proof of Claim be March 21, 2024. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 27. Because the\nNet Settlement Amount was fixed, there is no prejudice to Defendants in accepting late claims,\nand there has been no delay in the administration. See Stipulation (ECF No. 68-1 at 52) (\u201cNeither\nDefendants nor any other person or entity that paid any portion of the Settlement Amount on\ntheir behalf are entitled to receive back any portion of the Settlement Fund once the Court\u2019s\norder or judgment approving the Settlement becomes Final.\u201d); see also Kroll Decl. \u00b626 (\u201c[Kroll]\nbelieves no delay has resulted from the provisional acceptance of this Late But Otherwise\nEligible Claims.\u201d).\n\ffor ineligibility, deficiencies, or because the claimant had no Recognized Loss. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 34.\n\nFor each eligible Claim, Kroll has calculated the eligible Recognized Loss for each Authorized\n\nClaimant as defined by the Plan of Allocation described in the Notice. Kroll Decl. \u00b636. This\n\nRecognized Loss figure will be used to make the pro-rata distribution of the Net Settlement Fund\n\nto Class Members. Kroll Decl. \u00b636.\n\n III. Distribution of the Net Settlement Fund\n\n Kroll will distribute 100% of the available balance of the Net Settlement Fund\u2014after\n\ndeducting any Notice and Administration Costs, Taxes, and Tax Expenses\u2014to Authorized\n\nClaimants who would receive at least $10.00 based on their Recognized Loss Amount compared\n\nto the total Recognized Loss Amounts of all Authorized Claimants. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 38(a)(i)-(iii).\n\nRecipients will be encouraged to promptly cash their checks within 60 days. Kroll Decl.\n\n\u00b6 38(a)(iv). Kroll will attempt to locate recipients whose checks are initially uncashed, either\n\nbecause they are returned to Kroll as undeliverable or because the Authorized Claimants simply\n\ndid not cash the check after time elapses. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 38(a)(iv), n.2. No earlier than nine\n\nmonths after the Initial Distribution, any funds still available in the Net Settlement Fund\n\n(because of uncashed or undeliverable checks), shall, if Class Counsel, in consultation with\n\nKroll, determine it to be cost-effective to do so, be used in the following fashion: (a) first, to pay\n\nany amounts mistakenly omitted from the Initial Distribution;3 (b) second, to pay any additional\n\nsettlement administration fees, costs, and expenses, as may be approved by the Court; and (c)\n\nfinally, to make a second distribution to claimants who cashed their checks from the Initial\n\nDistribution and who would receive at least $10.00, after payment of the estimated costs,\n\n\n\n\n3\n Class Counsel and Kroll do not believe there will be any amounts mistakenly omitted from the\nInitial Distribution.\n\fexpenses, or fees to be incurred in administering the Net Settlement Fund and in making this\n\nsecond distribution. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 38(b).\n\n If there are not enough funds to make a second distribution economically viable, if\n\nsufficient funds remain to warrant the processing of Claims received after March 21, 2024, such\n\nClaims will be processed, and any such Claims that are otherwise valid as well as any earlier\n\nreceived Claims for which an adjustment was received after March 21, 2024, which resulted in\n\nan increased Recognized Claim will be paid in accordance with paragraph 38(d) of the Kroll\n\nDeclaration. The remainder of the Net Settlement Fund after payment of such late or late\n\nadjusted Claims, shall be donated to non-sectarian, not-for-profit organization(s), to be\n\nrecommended by Lead Counsel and approved by the Court. Kroll Decl. \u00b6 38(c).\n\n IV. Conclusion\n\n Lead Plaintiff respectfully requests that the Court approve and enter the [Proposed] Order\n\nfor Distribution of Net Settlement Fund.\n\nApril 24, 2024 Respectfully submitted,\n\n /s/ Jeffrey C.

SECURITIES\n LITIGATION\n Lead Case No. 1:21-cv-00515-ALC\n This document relates to:\n\n All Actions\n\n\n\n\n DECLARATION OF ROBERT CORMIO IN SUPPORT OF\n MOTION FOR CLASS DISTRIBUTION ORDER\n\n I, ROBERT CORMIO, declare as follows:\n\n 1. I am employed as a Senior Director by Kroll Settlement Administration LLC\n\n(\u201cKroll\u201d),1 whose principal office is located at 2000 Market St., Suite 2700, Philadelphia,\n\nPennsylvania 19103. The following statements are based on my personal knowledge and\n\ninformation provided to me by other Kroll employees and, if called to testify, I could and would\n\ndo so competently.\n\n 2. Pursuant to the Court\u2019s Order Preliminarily Approving Settlement and\n\nAuthorizing Dissemination of Notice to the Class (the \u201cPreliminary Approval Order\u201d), dated\n\nNovember 22, 2022 (ECF No. 69), Kroll was authorized to act as the Claims Administrator for the\n\nSettlement in the above-captioned action (the \u201cAction\u201d). Since that time, Kroll has, among other\n\nthings: (a) mailed the Court-approved Postcard Notice to potential Class Members and brokers and\n\nother nominees; (b) created and maintained a toll-free telephone helpline for inquiries during the\n\ncourse of the administration; (c) designed, launched, and maintained a case-specific website,\n\n\n1\n Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the\nStipulation and Order of Settlement (the \u201cStipulation\u201d), filed with this Court on October 24, 2022\n(ECF No. 68-1), the Preliminary Approval Order, and the Initial Mailing Declaration (as defined\nbelow).\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 2 of 96\n\n\n\n\nwww.BitDigitalSettlement.com (the \u201cSettlement Website\u201d), which included the option to submit\n\na Claim online and provides access to copies of the Stipulation, Preliminary Approval Order,\n\nNotice and Proof of Claim and Release; (d) caused the Summary Notice to be published; (e)\n\nprovided, upon request, additional copies of the Notice of (I) Pendency of Class Action and\n\nProposed Settlement; (II) Motion for an Award of Attorneys\u2019 Fees and Reimbursement of\n\nLitigation Expenses; and (III) Settlement Hearing (the \u201cNotice\u201d) and the Proof of Claim and\n\nRelease (the \u201cClaim Form,\u201d and, collectively with the Notice, the \u201cNotice Packet\u201d) to brokers,\n\nnominees, and potential Class Members; and (f) received and processed Claims.\n\n 3. Kroll has completed processing all Claims received through March 21, 2024, in\n\naccordance with the terms of the Stipulation and the Plan of Allocation set forth in the Notice and\n\napproved by the Court on March 7, 2023 (ECF No. 82), and hereby submits its administrative\n\ndeterminations accepting and rejecting Claims in preparation for a distribution of the Net\n\nSettlement Fund to Authorized Claimants. This declaration is being filed in support of Plaintiff\u2019s\n\nMotion for Class Settlement Distribution Order.\n\nI. DISSEMINATION OF THE CLAIM PACAKGE\n\n 4. As more fully described in the Declaration of Justin R. Hughes Regarding Notice\n\nDissemination, Publication, and Requests for Exclusion and Objections Received To Date, filed\n\nFebruary 2, 2023 (ECF No. 75-2) and the Supplemental Declaration of Justin R. Hughes Regarding\n\nNotice Dissemination, Publication, and Requests for Exclusion and Objections Received to Date,\n\nfiled February 28, 2023 (ECF No. 77), Kroll mailed an aggregate of 12,665 Postcard Notices to\n\npotential Class Members and nominees through February 28, 2023. Further, upon information and\n\nbelief, Broadridge and BYNM collectively mailed an additional 16,160 Postcard Notices and\n\n31,801 emails containing links to the Notice.\n\n\n\n\n 2\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 3 of 96\n\n\n\n\n 5. Pursuant to the Preliminary Approval Order, on December 28, 2022, Kroll caused\n\nthe Summary Notice to be disseminated over PR Newswire.\n\nII. PROCEDURES FOLLOWED IN PROCESSING CLAIMS\n\n 6. Under the terms of the Preliminary Approval Order and as set forth in the Notice,\n\neach Settlement Class Member who wished to be eligible to receive a distribution from the Net\n\nSettlement Fund was required to complete and submit to Kroll a properly executed Claim\n\npostmarked or received no later than March 21, 2023, together with adequate supporting\n\ndocumentation for the transactions and holdings reported therein. Through March 21, 2024, Kroll\n\nhas received 2,192 Claims.\n\n 7. In preparation for receiving and processing Claims, Kroll: (i) conferred with Lead\n\nCounsel regarding the project guidelines for processing Proofs of Claim; (ii) created a unique\n\ndatabase to store Claim details and images of Proofs of Claim and supporting documentation; (iii)\n\ntrained staff in the specifics of the project so that Claims would be properly processed; (iv)\n\nformulated a system so that telephone and email inquiries would be properly responded to; (v)\n\ndeveloped various computer programs and screens for entry of Class Members\u2019 identifying\n\ninformation and transactional information; and (vi) developed a proprietary \u201ccalculation module\u201d\n\nthat would calculate \u201cRecognized Claims\u201d pursuant to the Court-approved Plan of Allocation set\n\nforth in the Notice.\n\n A. Processing Paper Claims\n\n 8. Of the 2,192 Claims received by Kroll through March 21, 2024, 68 were hard-copy\n\nclaims submitted via mail (\u201cPaper Claims\u201d). Once received, Paper Claims were opened and\n\nprepared for scanning. This process included unfolding documents, removing staples, copying\n\nnon-conforming sized documents, sorting documents, and, where claimant identification\n\ninformation was not provided on the Claim itself, copying and attaching the envelope with the\n\n 3\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 4 of 96\n\n\n\n\nreturn address to the file. Once prepared, paper Claims were scanned into a database developed by\n\nKroll to process Claims submitted for the Settlement (the \u201cSettlement Database\u201d), together with\n\nall submitted documentation. Subsequently, each Claim was assigned a unique Claim number.\n\nOnce scanned, the information from each paper Claim, including the name, address, and the\n\nclaimant\u2019s purchase/acquisition transactions, sale transactions, and holdings listed in the Claim,\n\nwas entered into the Settlement Database. Next, the information provided by each claimant in\n\nsupport of his, her, or its Claim was reviewed to determine whether each claimant had purchased\n\nBit Digital, Inc. (\u201cBit Digital\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) common stock between December 21, 2020 and\n\nJanuary 11, 2021, as required to be a Class Member.\n\n 9. In order to process the transactions detailed in the Claims, Kroll utilized internal\n\ncodes (also known as \u201cmessage codes\u201d) to identify and classify Claims and any deficiency or\n\nineligibility conditions that existed within those Claims. The appropriate message codes were\n\nassigned to the Claims as they were processed. For example, where a Claim was submitted by a\n\nclaimant who did not purchase any Bit Digital common stock during the Class Period, that Claim\n\nreceived a \u201cClaim level\u201d message code that denoted ineligibility. Similar \u201cClaim level\u201d message\n\ncodes were used to denote other ineligible conditions, such as duplicate Claims. These message\n\ncodes indicated to Kroll that the claimant is not eligible to receive any payment from the Net\n\nSettlement Fund with respect to that Claim unless the deficiency is cured.\n\n 10. Because a Claim may be deficient only in part, but otherwise acceptable, Kroll also\n\nutilized message codes that only applied to specific transactions within a Claim. For example, if a\n\nClaimant submitted a Claim with supporting documentation for all but one purchase transaction,\n\nthat one transaction received a \u201ctransaction level\u201d message code. That message code indicated that\n\none transaction was deficient, but that the Claim was otherwise eligible for payment if other\n\n\n\n\n 4\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 5 of 96\n\n\n\n\ntransactions in the Claim calculated to a Recognized Claim pursuant to the Plan of Allocation.\n\nThus, even if the transaction level deficiency was never cured, the Claim could still be paid in part.\n\n B. Processing Web Claims\n\n 11. Of the 2,192 Claims received by Kroll through March 21, 2024, 829 were submitted\n\nby claimants via the Claim portal available on the Settlement Website (\u201cWeb Claims\u201d). Once\n\nreceived, Web Claims were imported into the Settlement Database. This process included\n\nassigning a unique Claim number to each Web Claim and mapping the submission form to the\n\ndatabase so that entries could be evaluated and calculated according to the Plan of Allocation.\n\nNext, and identical to the process utilized for paper Claims, the information provided by each\n\nclaimant in support of his, her, or its Web Claim was reviewed to determine whether the claimant\n\npurchased Bit Digital common stock in the Class Period, as required to be a Class Member. Kroll\n\nutilized the same internal Claim codes as utilized for paper Claims to identify and classify Web\n\nClaims so the appropriate message codes were assigned to the Web Claims as they were processed.\n\n C. Processing Claims Submitted Electronically\n\n 12. Of the 2,192 Claims received by Kroll through March 21, 2024, 1,295 were filed\n\nelectronically (\u201cElectronic Claims\u201d), which are typically submitted by institutional investors who\n\nmay have hundreds or thousands of transactions during the relevant period. Rather than provide\n\nreams of paper requiring data entry, the institutional investors filing Electronic Claims either mail\n\na computer disc or email a file to Kroll, so that Kroll may electronically upload all transactions to\n\nthe Settlement Database.\n\n 13. Kroll maintains an electronic filing operations team (the \u201cElectronic Filing Team\u201d)\n\nto coordinate and supervise the receipt and handling of all Electronic Claims. In this case, as in all\n\nother claims administrations, the Electronic Filing Team reviewed and analyzed each electronic\n\nfile to ensure that it was formatted in accordance with Kroll\u2019s required format, and to identify any\n\n 5\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 6 of 96\n\n\n\n\npotential data issues or inconsistencies within the file. If any issues or inconsistencies arose, Kroll\n\nimmediately notified the filer. If the electronic file was deemed to be in an acceptable format, it\n\nwas then forwarded to Kroll\u2019s data team with detailed loading instructions, including the number\n\nof Claims and transaction totals that the institution provided when it sent the electronic file.\n\n 14. Once the electronic file was loaded, Kroll\u2019s \u201cQuality Assurance\u201d personnel\n\nreviewed the electronic file to confirm that the number of Claims and transactions matched the\n\ninformation provided by the filer.\n\n 15. Once the Claims and transaction totals were confirmed, the Electronic Claims were\n\ncoded just like paper Claims and Web Claims, with messages to identify and classify Electronic\n\nClaims and any deficiency or ineligibility conditions that existed within them. The message codes\n\napplied to the Electronic Claims are the same as those applied to paper Claims and Web Claims;\n\nhowever, the process in applying the codes to the Electronic Claims differs from the process used\n\nfor paper Claims or Web Claims. Rather than manually applying message codes, the Electronic\n\nFiling Team performed programmatic reviews on Electronic Claims to identify deficient and\n\nineligible conditions (such as, but not limited to, price per share validation issues and out of balance\n\nconditions). The appropriate message codes were then assigned programmatically once the output\n\nof the reviews was thoroughly analyzed and confirmed as accurate.\n\n 16. The review process also included flagging Electronic Claims that were not\n\naccompanied by any of the following: (i) a signed Proof of Claim and Release, which serves as a\n\n\u201cMaster Proof of Claim Form\u201d for all accounts referenced on the electronic file submitted; (ii) an\n\nelectronic filing summary sheet; (iii) supporting documentation, such as a signed or notarized letter\n\non company letterhead attesting to the truth and accuracy of the data on the electronic file, trade\n\nconfirmations, and/or brokerage account statements; (iv) a notarized affidavit, corporate\n\nresolution, or corporate bylaws verifying that the individual who executed the Claim and submitted\n\n 6\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 7 of 96\n\n\n\n\nthe electronic file is an authorized signatory of his/her company with the authority to file such\n\ninformation; and (v) documentation to demonstrate the authority to file on behalf of the claimant.\n\nThis portion of the review process was also reviewed by Kroll\u2019s Quality Assurance personnel, who\n\nworked in conjunction with the Electronic Filing Team to contact the institutional filers whose\n\nelectronic files were missing information. This process ensures that only fully completed Claims,\n\nsubmitted by properly authorized representatives of the claimants, are considered eligible for\n\npayment from the Net Settlement Fund.\n\n 17. At the end of the process, Kroll performed various audits of Electronic Claims.\n\nSpecifically, Kroll contacted a number of electronic filers who, in lieu of providing specific trade\n\nconfirmations, provided certain other forms of supporting documentation as set forth in \u00b616 above,\n\nand requested that various sample transactions selected by Kroll be documented by providing\n\nconfirmation slips or other transaction specific supporting documentation. This random sampling\n\nand request for follow up verification helped to ensure that electronic data supplied by claimants\n\ndid not contain inaccurate information. Kroll performed this final check on a variety of electronic\n\nfiles randomly selected, as well as on the electronic files with the largest Recognized Claims.\n\nIII. EXCLUDED PERSONS\n\n 18. Kroll also reviewed all Claims to ensure that they were not submitted by, or on\n\nbehalf of, persons or entities specifically excluded from the Settlement Class by definition, to the\n\nextent that the identities of such persons or entities were known to Kroll through the list of\n\nDefendants and other excluded persons and entities set forth in the Stipulation and the Notice.\n\nIV. THE DEFICIENCY PROCESS\n\n A. Paper and Web Claims\n\n 19. Approximately 573 of the 898 Paper Claims and Web Claims, or approximately\n\n64% of the Paper Claims and Web Claims submitted, were incomplete or had one or more defects\n\n 7\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 8 of 96\n\n\n\n\nor conditions of ineligibility, such as the Proof of Claim not being signed, not being properly\n\ndocumented, or indicating no eligible transactions in Bit Digital common stock.\n\n 20. A majority of Kroll\u2019s efforts in handling a claims administration involve claimant\n\ncommunications, so that all claimants have a sufficient opportunity to cure any deficiencies and\n\nfile a complete Proof of Claim and Release. The \u201cDeficiency Process,\u201d which primarily involved\n\nmailing letters to claimants and, in response, making and receiving calls and sending and receiving\n\nemails to and from claimants, was intended to assist claimants in properly completing their\n\notherwise deficient submissions so that they would be eligible to receive a distribution from the\n\nNet Settlement Fund.\n\n 21. If a Claim was determined to be defective or ineligible, a Notice of Rejection of\n\nYour Claim or a Notice of Rejection of Part of Your Claim (\u201cRejection Notice\u201d) was sent to the\n\nclaimant describing the defect(s) or condition(s) of ineligibility in their Claim and what was\n\nnecessary to cure any \u201ccurable\u201d defect(s) in the Claim. The Rejection Notice advised the claimant\n\nthat the submission of the appropriate information and/or documentary evidence to complete the\n\nClaim had to be sent within twenty (20) days from the date of the letter, or the Claim would be\n\nrecommended for rejection to the extent the deficiency or condition of ineligibility was not cured.\n\nThe Rejection Notices also advised claimants that if they desired to contest the administrative\n\ndetermination, they were required to submit a written statement to Kroll requesting Court review\n\nof the determination and setting forth the basis for the request. Kroll sent by first-class mail a total\n\nof 574 Rejection Notices to claimants. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is an example of the Rejection\n\nNotice.\n\n 22. Claimants\u2019 responses to the Rejection Notices were scanned into Kroll\u2019s database\n\nand associated with the corresponding Claims. The responses were then carefully reviewed and\n\n\n\n\n 8\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 9 of 96\n\n\n\n\nevaluated by Kroll\u2019s team of processors. If a claimant\u2019s response corrected the defect(s), Kroll\n\nupdated the database manually to reflect the change in status of the Claim.\n\n B. Electronic Claims\n\n 23. Using the following process, Kroll provided filers of Electronic Claims with an\n\nemail attaching a \u201cStatus Report\u201d listing the Claims that were submitted, which of those were a\n\nRecognized Claim, and/or a list of the specific portions of the Claims that were incorrect or\n\nincomplete. The Transaction Reports:\n\n (a) were sent electronically to 13 electronic filers who collectively submitted\n\n 1,295 Electronic Claims;\n\n (b) Listed Recognized Claim amounts for Claims that were eligible per the\n\n terms of the Plan of Allocation;\n\n (c) identified individual transactions and/or entire Claims that were found to be\n\n deficient or ineligible so that the filer on behalf of the claimant had the\n\n opportunity to correct the deficient condition or contest the determination\n\n of ineligibility;\n\n (d) stated that any deficient transactions or Electronic Claims that remain\n\n uncured, as well as any transactions or Electronic Claims that were\n\n identified as ineligible on the Transaction Report, would be recommended\n\n for rejection;\n\n (e) notified the filer that it could, on behalf of the claimant, request that the\n\n Court review Kroll\u2019s administrative determination if it wished to contest the\n\n rejection of any transactions or Electronic Claims; and\n\n (f) provided Kroll\u2019s contact information so that the filer could reach out to\n\n Kroll if it had any questions or required assistance.\n\n 9\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 10 of 96\n\n\n\n\n 24. The responses to the Transaction Reports were reviewed by Kroll, scanned, and/or\n\nloaded into Kroll\u2019s database, and associated with the corresponding Electronic Claim. If the\n\nresponse corrected the defect(s) or affected the Electronic Claim\u2019s status, Kroll manually and/or\n\nprogrammatically updated the database to reflect the change in status of the Electronic Claim.\n\nV. DISPUTED CLAIMS\n\n 25. As noted above, claimants were advised that they had the right to contest Kroll\u2019s\n\nadministrative determination of deficiencies or ineligibility within twenty (20) days from the date\n\nof notification and that they could request that the dispute be submitted to the Court for review.\n\nMore specifically, such persons were advised in the Rejection Notice and in the Transaction\n\nReports that to dispute Kroll\u2019s determinations, they needed to provide a statement of reasons\n\nindicating their grounds for contesting the rejection, along with supporting documentation.\n\nThrough March 21, 2024, Kroll received three (3) requests for Court Review, all of which were\n\nresolved and/or withdrawn by the Claimant. Therefore, there are no outstanding requests for Court\n\nreview of the administrative determinations.\n\nVI. LATE BUT OTHERWISE ELIGIBLE CLAIMS\n\n 26. Through March 21, 2024, Kroll received 43 Claims that were postmarked or\n\nreceived after March 21, 2023, the submission deadline established by the Court. Kroll processed\n\nall late Claims received through March 21, 2024, and 8 have been found to be otherwise eligible\n\nin whole or in part (the \u201cLate But Otherwise Eligible Claims\u201d). Kroll has not rejected any Proof\n\nof Claim received through March 21, 2024, solely based on its late submission, and believes no\n\ndelay has resulted from the provisional acceptance of this Late But Otherwise Eligible Claims. To\n\nthe extent it is eligible but for the fact that it was late, Kroll recommends that these Claims be\n\neligible for payment.\n\n\n\n\n 10\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 11 of 96\n\n\n\n\n 27. There must be a final cut-off date after which no more Claims will be accepted so\n\nthat there may be a proportional distribution of the Net Settlement Fund and the distribution may\n\nbe accomplished. Acceptance of additional Claims or responses to Rejection Notices or\n\nTransaction Reports received during the finalization of the administration and the preparation of\n\nthis application for distribution of the Net Settlement Fund would necessarily require a delay in\n\nthe distribution. Accordingly, Kroll requests that no Claims or responses to Rejection Notices or\n\nTransaction Reports received after March 21, 2024, shall be eligible for payment in the initial\n\ndistribution (\u201cInitial Distribution\u201d) of the Net Settlement Fund to Authorized Claimants.\n\nVII. QUALITY ASSURANCE\n\n 28. An integral part of all of Kroll\u2019s settlement administration projects is its Quality\n\nAssurance review. Kroll\u2019s Quality Assurance personnel worked throughout the entire claims\n\nadministration process to verify that Claims were processed properly; that deficiency and\n\nineligibility message codes were properly applied to Claims; that Rejection Notices were mailed\n\nto the appropriate claimants; that Transaction Reports were emailed to filers of Electronic Claims;\n\nand that Kroll\u2019s computer programs were operating properly.\n\n 29. Once all of the Claims were processed, Rejection Notices were mailed, Transaction\n\nReports were emailed, and responses to those notices and reports were reviewed and processed,\n\nKroll\u2019s Quality Assurance team performed a final project wrap up to ensure the correctness and\n\ncompleteness of all Claims before Kroll prepared its final reports to Lead Counsel. Here, in\n\nconnection with this Quality Assurance wrap up, Kroll: (i) confirmed that valid Claims have no\n\nmessages denoting ineligibility; (ii) confirmed that Claims that are ineligible have messages\n\ndenoting ineligibility; (iii) confirmed that Claims that contained purchases of Bit Digital common\n\nstock made outside of the Class Period contain appropriate ineligibility messages; (iv) confirmed\n\nthat Claim detail (transaction) messages appear only on Claim detail records; (v) confirmed that\n\n 11\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 12 of 96\n\n\n\n\nall Claims requiring Rejection Notices were sent such notices; (vi) performed a sample review of\n\ndeficient Claims; (vii) reviewed Claims with large dollar losses; (viii) sampled Claims that had\n\nbeen determined to be ineligible, including those with no calculated Recognized Claim under the\n\nPlan of Allocation, in order to verify that all transactions had been captured correctly; and (ix)\n\ntested the accuracy of the calculation program.\n\n 30. In support of the work described above, Kroll\u2019s computer staff designed and\n\nimplemented, and the Quality Assurance team tested, the following programs for this\n\nadministration: (i) data entry screens that store Claim information (including all transactional data\n\nincluded in each Claim) and attach message codes and, where necessary, text to denote conditions\n\nexisting within the Claim; (ii) programs to load and analyze transactional data submitted\n\nelectronically for all Electronic Claims; (iii) a program to compare the claimed transaction prices\n\nagainst the reported market prices to confirm that the claimed transactions were within an\n\nacceptable range of the reported market prices; (iv) a calculation program to analyze the\n\ntransactional data for all Claims, and calculate each claimant\u2019s Recognized Claim based on the\n\nPlan of Allocation; and (v) programs to generate various reports throughout and at the conclusion\n\nof the claims administration process, including lists of all eligible and ineligible Claims.\n\n 31. Kroll also used a variety of fraud protection controls throughout the claims\n\nadministration process to identify potential fraudulent Claims. Searches for duplicate Claims (by\n\nbeneficial owner name, tax identification number, account number and Recognized Claim\n\namounts), high value reviews, spot reviews, and other standard audit reports that examined the\n\ninformation in a variety of ways, were used during Kroll\u2019s Quality Assurance review.\n\n 32. Kroll reviewed and compared the entire Settlement Database against its proprietary\n\n\u201cWatch List\u201d of known potential fraudulent filers that Kroll has developed throughout its more\n\n\n\n\n 12\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 13 of 96\n\n\n\n\nthan 40 years of experience as a claims administrator. Kroll works with law enforcement to update\n\nthe Watch List with the latest information.\n\n 33. In accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Treasury Department\u2019s Office of\n\nForeign Assets Control (\u201cOFAC\u201d), Kroll will perform searches on every check that it will issue to\n\nidentify any potential payees whose names appear on the federal government\u2019s restricted person\u2019s\n\nlist or who reside in countries to which payments are prohibited. Kroll regularly monitors changes\n\nto OFAC regulations and guidelines.\n\nVIII. DISPOSITION OF PROOFS OF CLAIM\n\n 34. Kroll has completed the processing of the 2,192 Claims that were received through\n\nMarch 21, 2024, and has determined that (a) 660 are acceptable in whole or in part, and that (b)\n\n1,532 should be wholly rejected because they are ineligible for recovery from the Net Settlement\n\nFund. The 1,532 wholly rejected Claims are ineligible for the following reasons:\n\n Summary of Rejected Proofs of Claim\n\n Reason for Rejection Number of Claims\n Claim Did Not Result in a Recognized Claim\n Pursuant to Court-Approved Plan of 704\n Allocation\n Claim Did Not Fit Definition of Settlement\n Class (e.g., Claimant\u2019s Shares of Bit Digital 600\n were Not Purchased in the Class Period)\n Deficient and Potentially Curable Claim Never 177\n Cured\n Duplicate Claim 48\n Claim Withdrawn 3\n\n 35. A list of the Claims submitted and their ultimate disposition is contained in the\n\nfollowing exhibits: Exhibit B-1, entitled \u201cTimely Eligible Claims,\u201d lists all timely filed,\n\nprovisionally accepted Claims and states each Claim\u2019s Recognized Claim; Exhibit B-2, entitled\n\n\u201cLate But Otherwise Eligible Claims,\u201d lists the late filed (i.e., Claims with a postmark or received\n\nafter March 21, 2023, and received on or before March 21, 2024), provisionally accepted Claims\n\n 13\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 14 of 96\n\n\n\n\nand states each Claim\u2019s Recognized Claim; Exhibit B-3, entitled \u201cRejected Claims,\u201d lists all\n\nwholly rejected Claims and states the reason for each Claim\u2019s rejection. For privacy reasons,\n\nExhibits B-1, B-2, and B-3 provide only the Claimant\u2019s unique Claim number assigned by Kroll,\n\nalong with that Claim\u2019s Recognized Claim or reason for rejection (no names, physical addresses,\n\nor social security or other taxpayer identification numbers are disclosed).\n\n 36. The total Recognized Claims for all provisionally accepted Claims (as set forth on\n\nExhibits B-1 and B-2 hereto) calculated in accordance with the Court-approved Plan of Allocation\n\nis $11,532,135.51 (the total Recognized Claims for the 652 Timely Eligible Claims is\n\n$8,876,470.89 and the total Recognized Claims for the 8 Late But Otherwise Eligible Claims is\n\n$2,655,664.61). According to the Plan of Allocation, each Authorized Claimant shall be allocated\n\na pro rata share of the Net Settlement Fund based on the percentage his, her, or its Recognized\n\nClaim bears to the total of the Recognized Claims of all Authorized Claimants; however, as set\n\nforth in the Court-approved Plan of Allocation, if an Authorized Claimant\u2019s prorated payment\n\ncalculates to less than $10.00, it will not be included in the calculation and no distribution will be\n\nmade to such Authorized Claimant.\n\nIX. KROLL\u2019S REQUESTED FEES AND DISBURSEMENTS\n\n 37. In furtherance of the terms of the Stipulation authorizing payment for Notice and\n\nAdministration Expenses incurred by the Claims Administration, Kroll has provided Lead Counsel\n\nwith reports on all of the work Kroll performed with respect to the administration of the Settlement,\n\nand Lead Counsel had authorized the claims administration work performed herein. Attached\n\nhereto as Exhibit C are copies of Kroll\u2019s invoices for its work performed on behalf of the Class.\n\nAs set forth on these invoices, the cost of administration for this project through the Initial\n\nDistribution is $160,400 in fees and expenses. To date, Kroll has received payment of fees and\n\nexpenses in the amount of $148,325.81. Accordingly, there is a balance of $12,074.19 due to Kroll.\n\n 14\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 15 of 96\n\n\n\n\nX. DISTRIBUTION PLAN FOR THE NET SETTLEMENT FUND\n\n 38. Should the Court concur with Kroll\u2019s determinations concerning the provisionally\n\naccepted and rejected Claims, including the Late But Otherwise Eligible Claims, Kroll\n\nrecommends the following distribution plan (the \u201cDistribution Plan\u201d):\n\n a. Kroll will conduct an Initial Distribution of the available balance of the Net\n\n Settlement Fund, after deducting all payments previously approved by the Court and requested\n\n herein, and after deducting payment of any estimated taxes, the costs of preparing tax returns,\n\n and any escrow fees, as follows:\n\n i. Pursuant to the Court-approved Plan of Allocation, Kroll will calculate each\n\n Authorized Claimant\u2019s pro rata share of the Net Settlement Fund based on\n\n the amount of the Authorized Claimant\u2019s Recognized Claim in comparison\n\n to the total Recognized Claims of all Authorized Claimants.\n\n ii. Kroll will, pursuant to the Court-approved Plan of Allocation, eliminate\n\n from the distribution any Authorized Claimant whose pro rata share of the\n\n Net Settlement Fund as calculated under subparagraph (a)(i) above is less\n\n than $10.00. Such Claimants will not receive any payment from the Net\n\n Settlement Fund.\n\n iii. After eliminating Claimants who would have received less than $10.00,\n\n Kroll will recalculate the pro rata share of the Net Settlement Fund for\n\n Authorized Claimants who would have received $10.00 or more pursuant\n\n to the calculation described in subparagraph (a)(i) above. This pro rata\n\n share is the Authorized Claimant\u2019s \u201cDistribution Amount.\u201d\n\n iv. To encourage Authorized Claimants to cash their distribution checks\n\n promptly, and to avoid or reduce future expenses relating to unpaid\n\n 15\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 16 of 96\n\n\n\n\n distribution checks, all Initial Distribution checks will bear the notation:\n\n \u201cDEPOSIT PROMPTLY, VOID AND SUBJECT TO RE-\n\n DISTRIBUTION IF NOT NEGOTIATED WITHIN 60 DAYS OF\n\n DISTRIBUTION.\u201d2\n\n v. Authorized Claimants who do not cash their Initial Distribution checks\n\n within the time allotted or pursuant to further action as set forth in footnote\n\n 2, will irrevocably forfeit all recovery from the Settlement.\n\n b. Consistent with the Court-approved Plan of Allocation, if any funds remain in the\n\n Net Settlement Fund after the Initial Distribution because of uncashed checks or otherwise,\n\n then, after Kroll has made reasonable and diligent efforts to have Authorized Claimants cash\n\n their distribution checks (which efforts shall consist of the extensive follow up efforts\n\n described in footnote 2), any balance remaining in the Net Settlement Fund nine (9) months\n\n after the distribution, or as reasonably soon thereafter, shall, if Lead Counsel, in consultation\n\n with Kroll, determines it to be cost effective to do so, be redistributed, after payment of any\n\n unpaid fees and expenses incurred in administering the Settlement, including for such\n\n\n\n2\n In an effort to have as many Authorized Claimants as possible cash their checks, Kroll will\nperform follow up with those Authorized Claimants whose checks are initially uncashed, either\nbecause they are returned to Kroll as undeliverable or because the Authorized Claimant simply did\nnot cash the check after a period of time elapses (the \u201cOutreach Program\u201d). For Authorized\nClaimants whose checks are returned as undeliverable, Kroll will endeavor to locate new addresses\nby running the undeliverable addresses through the United States Postal Service\u2019s National Change\nof Address database and, where appropriate, via Internet search techniques and by calling and\nemailing the Authorized Claimants. Where a new address is located, Kroll will update the database\naccordingly and re-issue a distribution check to the Authorized Claimant at the new address. For\nany Authorized Claimants whose checks are not returned but who simply do not cash their checks,\nKroll will use a mix of automated calls, personalized telephone calls, and emails to urge such\nAuthorized Claimants to cash their distribution checks. In the event an Authorized Claimant loses\nor damages his, her, or its check, or otherwise requires a new check, Kroll will issue replacement\nchecks. Distribution reissues will be undertaken only upon written instructions from the\nAuthorized Claimant, provided that the Authorized Claimant returns the previous check where\nappropriate. For all checks, Kroll will void the initial payment prior to reissuing a payment.\n 16\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 17 of 96\n\n\n\n\nredistribution and after deducting payment of any estimated taxes, the costs of preparing\n\nappropriate tax returns and any escrow fees, to Authorized Claimants who have cashed their\n\ndistribution checks and who would receive at least $10.00 from such redistribution.\n\n c. At such time as Lead Counsel, in consultation with Kroll, determines that the\n\nredistribution of funds remaining in the Net Settlement Fund is not cost effective, the remaining\n\nbalance shall be contributed to non-sectarian, not-for-profit organization(s), to be\n\nrecommended by Lead Counsel and approved by the Court.\n\n d. No new Claims may be accepted after March 21, 2024, and no further adjustments\n\nto Claims received on or before March 21, 2024, that would result in an increased Recognized\n\nClaim may be made for any reason after March 21, 2024.\n\n e. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, Kroll will dispose of the paper copies of\n\nClaims and all supporting documentation one (1) year from the final distribution date of the\n\nNet Settlement Fund and will dispose of electronic copies of the same three (3) years after the\n\nfinal distribution date of the Net Settlement Fund.\n\n\n\n\n 17\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 18 of 96\n\n\n\n\nXI. CONCLUSION\n\n 39. Kroll respectfully requests that the Court enter an Order approving its\n\nadministrative determinations accepting and rejecting the Proofs of Claim received on or before\n\nMarch 21, 2024, and approving the proposed Distribution Plan.\n\n I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the\n\nforegoing is true and correct.\n\n Executed in New York on April 22, 2024.\n\n\n\n _\n\n\n\n\n _________________\n Robert Cormio\n Senior Director\n Kroll Services Administration\n\n\n\n\n 18\n\fCase 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 19 of 96\n\n\n\n\n EXHIBIT A\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 85-2 Filed 04/24/24 Page 20 of 96\n\nBit Digital Settlement\nClaims Administrator\nP.O.

Notice of Lead Counsel\u2019s Fee Motion was given to all Class Members who could\n\nbe located with reasonable effort. The form and method of notifying the Class of the Fee Motion\n\nmet the requirements of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Securities\n\nExchange Act of 1934, as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (15\n\nU.S.C. \u00a778u-4(a)(7)), due process, and any other applicable law, constituted the best notice\n\npracticable under the circumstances, and constituted due and sufficient notice to persons and\n\nentities entitled thereto.\n\n 4. 525,000\n The Court hereby awards attorneys\u2019 fees of $_____________, which is equal to\n\n 14,941.79\n25% of the Settlement Amount, plus expenses in the amount of $_____________, together with\n\nthe interest earned on both amounts for the same time period and at the same rate as that earned\n\non the Settlement Fund until paid.

Also excluded from the Class is any Person who would otherwise be a Class\n\nMember but who validly and timely requested exclusion in accordance with the requirements set\n\nby the Court, of which there are none.\n\n 5. The Court finds that (a) the Members of the Class are so numerous that joinder of\n\nall Class Members in the Class are impracticable; (b) there are questions of law and fact common\n\nto the Class which predominate over any individual question; (c) the claims of Lead Plaintiff are\n\ntypical of the claims of the Class; (d) Lead Plaintiff and his counsel have fairly and adequately\n\nrepresented and protected the Class; and (e) a class action is superior to other available methods\n\nfor the fair and efficient adjudication of the controversy, considering (i) the interests of the Class\n\nMembers individually controlling the prosecution with separate actions; (ii) the extent and nature\n\nof any litigation concerning the controversy already commenced by Class Members; (iii) the\n\ndesirability or undesirability of concentrating the litigation of these claims in this particular forum;\n\nand (iv) the difficulties likely to be encountered in the management of the class action.\n\n 6. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23, the Court hereby approves the\n\nSettlement set forth in the Stipulation and finds that:\n\n a. said Stipulation and the Settlement contained therein, are, in all respects, fair,\n\n reasonable, and adequate and in the best interest of the Class;\n\n b. there was no collusion in connection with the Stipulation;\n\n c. the Stipulation was the product of informed, arm\u2019s-length negotiations among\n\n competent, able counsel; and\n\n d. the record is sufficiently developed and complete to have enabled Lead Plaintiff and\n\n Defendants to have adequately evaluated and considered their positions.\n\n\n\n\n 3\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 84 Filed 03/07/23 Page 4 of 7\n\n\n\n\n 7. Accordingly, the Court authorizes and directs implementation and performance of\n\nall the terms and provisions of the Stipulation, as well as the terms and provisions hereof. The\n\nCourt hereby dismisses the Litigation and all claims asserted therein with prejudice. The Settling\n\nParties are to bear their own costs, except as and to the extent provided in the Stipulation and\n\nherein.\n\n 8. Upon the Effective Date, and as provided in the Stipulation, Lead Plaintiff shall,\n\nand each of the Class Members shall be deemed to have, and by operation of this Judgment shall\n\nhave, fully, finally, and forever released, relinquished, and discharged all Released Claims\n\n(including Unknown Claims) against the Released Defendant Parties, whether or not such Class\n\nMember executes and delivers the Proof of Claim and Release form or shares in the Net Settlement\n\nFund.

The Notice of Pendency of Class Action and Proposed Settlement given to the Class\n\nwas the best notice practicable under the circumstances, including the individual notice to all Class\n\nMembers who could be identified through reasonable effort. Said notice provided the best notice\n\npracticable under the circumstances of those proceedings and of the matters set forth therein,\n\nincluding the proposed Settlement set forth in the Stipulation, to all Persons entitled to such notice,\n\nand said notice fully satisfied the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 and the\n\nrequirements of due process. No Class Member is relieved from the terms of the Settlement,\n\nincluding the releases provided for therein, based upon the contention or proof that such Class\n\nMember failed to receive actual or adequate notice. A full opportunity has been offered to the\n\nClass Members to object to the proposed Settlement and to participate in the hearing thereon. The\n\nCourt further finds that the notice provisions of the Class Action Fairness Act, 28 U.S.C. \u00a71715,\n\nwere fully discharged and that the statutory waiting period has elapsed. Thus, the Court hereby\n\ndetermines that all Class Members are bound by this Judgment.\n\n 12. Any Plan of Allocation submitted by Lead Counsel or any order entered regarding\n\nany attorneys\u2019 fee and expense application shall in no way disturb or affect this Judgment and shall\n\nbe considered separate from this Judgment.\n\n 13. Neither the Stipulation nor the Settlement contained therein, nor any act performed\n\nor document executed pursuant to or in furtherance of the Stipulation or the Settlement: (a) is, or\n\nmay be deemed to be, or may be used as an admission of, or evidence of, the validity of any\n\nReleased Claim, or of any wrongdoing or liability of the Defendants or their respective Related\n\nPersons, or (b) is, or may be deemed to be, or may be used as an admission of, or evidence of, any\n\nfault or omission of any of the Defendants or their respective Related Persons in any civil, criminal,\n\nor administrative proceeding in any court, administrative agency, or other tribunal.

Without affecting the finality of this Judgment in any way, this Court hereby retains\n\ncontinuing jurisdiction over: (a) implementation of this Settlement and any award or distribution\n\nof the Settlement Fund, including interest earned thereon; (b) disposition of the Settlement Fund;\n\n(c) hearing and determining applications for attorneys\u2019 fees, expenses, and interest in the\n\nLitigation; and (d) all parties herein for the purpose of construing, enforcing, and administering\n\nthe Stipulation.\n\n 15. The Court finds that during the course of the Litigation, the Settling Parties and\n\ntheir respective counsel at all times complied with the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil\n\nProcedure 11.\n\n 16. In the event that the Settlement does not become effective in accordance with the\n\nterms of the Stipulation, or the Effective Date does not occur, or in the event that the Settlement\n\nFund, or any portion thereof, is returned to the Defendants or their insurers, then this Judgment\n\nshall be rendered null and void to the extent provided by and in accordance with the Stipulation\n\nand shall be vacated and, in such event, all orders entered and releases delivered in connection\n\nherewith shall be null and void to the extent provided by and in accordance with the Stipulation,\n\nand the Settling Parties shall restored to their respective positions in the Litigation as of August\n\n12, 2022, as provided in the Stipulation.\n\n\n\n\n 6\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 84 Filed 03/07/23 Page 7 of 7\n\n\n\n\n 17.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT\n\n The Settlement resolves this Litigation in its entirety and establishes a common fund of\n\n$2,100,000 for the benefit of Class Members. As detailed in Lead Plaintiff\u2019s and Lead Counsel\u2019s\n\nopening papers (ECF Nos. 71-76), the Settlement is the product of hard-fought litigation and\n\nextensive arm\u2019s-length negotiations between experienced and knowledgeable counsel. It\n\nrepresents a very favorable result for the Class in light of the substantial risks and challenges that\n\nLead Plaintiff and the Class faced in proving liability and defeating Defendants\u2019 many arguments\n\nin response, as well as the costs and delays of continued litigation and prospective collection\n\ndifficulties from Bit Digital.\n\n In response to the Court-approved notice program, which involved mailing 11,523 copies\n\nof the Postcard Notice of (I) Pendency of Class Action and Proposed Settlement; (II) Motion for\n\nan Award of Attorneys\u2019 Fees and Reimbursement of Litigation Expenses; and (III) Settlement\n\nHearing to potential Class Members and nominees and transmitting the Summary Notice over PR\n\nNewswire, not a single objection was filed, and no requests for exclusion from the Class have been\n\nreceived. This reaction of the Class further demonstrates that the proposed Settlement, Plan of\n\n\n\n\n1 Unless otherwise noted, all capitalized terms are defined in the Stipulation and Agreement of\n\nClass Action Settlement dated October 12, 2022, which is attached to the Declaration of Jacob A.\nWalker, dated October 24, 2022, as Exhibit 1. ECF No 68. The Supplemental Declaration of\nJustin R. Hughes Regarding Notice Dissemination, Publication, and Requests for Exclusion and\nObjections Received to Date (\u201cSuppl. Hughes Decl.\u201d), dated February 28, 2023, is submitted\nherewith. All citations are omitted and emphasis is added, unless otherwise noted.\n\n\n 1\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 76 Filed 02/28/23 Page 3 of 7\n\n\n\n\nAllocation, and request for fees and expenses and an award to Lead Plaintiff are fair and reasonable\n\nand should be approved.\n\n II. THE CLASS OVERWHELMINGLY SUPPORTS THE SETTLEMENT\n\n Lead Plaintiff and Lead Counsel respectfully submit that their opening briefs and\n\ndeclarations demonstrate why approval of the motions is warranted. Now that the time for\n\nobjecting or requesting exclusion from the Class has passed, the lack of objections and total\n\nabsence of opt outs from the Class provides additional support for approval of the motions.\n\n Pursuant to the Court\u2019s Preliminary Approval Order, more than 11,523 copies of the\n\nPostcard Notice have been mailed to potential Class Members and their nominees. See Suppl.\n\nHughes Decl., \u00b62. The Notice informed Class Members of the terms of the proposed Settlement\n\nand Plan of Allocation, that Lead Counsel would apply for an award of attorneys\u2019 fees in an amount\n\nnot to exceed 25% of the Settlement Amount and payment of litigation expenses in an amount not\n\nto exceed $30,000, and that Lead Plaintiff may request an award related to his representation of\n\nthe Class. See Notice (ECF No. 75-2), at 2-3. The Notice also apprised Class Members of their\n\nright to object to the proposed Settlement, the Plan of Allocation and/or the request for attorneys\u2019\n\nfees and expenses, their right to exclude themselves from the Class, the February 14, 2023 deadline\n\nfor filing objections and requests for exclusion, and the March 21, 2023 deadline for submitting a\n\nClaim Form. See id. at 3-4. The Summary Notice, which informed readers of the proposed\n\nSettlement, how to obtain copies of the Notice, and the deadlines for the submission of Claim\n\nForms, objections, and requests for exclusion, was transmitted over PR Newswire. See ECF No.\n\n75-2, Declaration of Justin R. Hughes Regarding Notice Dissemination, Publication, and Requests\n\nfor Exclusion and Objections Received to Date, \u00b69. In addition, the Claims Administrator\n\n\n\n\n 2\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 76 Filed 02/28/23 Page 4 of 7\n\n\n\n\nestablished a case-specific website which provided information and links to relevant documents\n\n(id., \u00b611), and a case-specific toll-free telephone helpline. Id., \u00b610.\n\n As noted above, following this notice program, no Class Members objected to any aspect\n\nof the Settlement, the Plan of Allocation, or the fee and expense application, and no Class Members\n\nrequested exclusion from the Class. The absence of objections and requests for exclusion strongly\n\nsupports a finding that the Settlement, Plan of Allocation, and fee and expense requests are fair,\n\nreasonable, and adequate. See, e.g., Rosi v. Aclaris Therapeutics, Inc., No. 19-cv-7118-LJL, 2021\n\nWL 5847420, at *5 (S.D.N.Y. Dec. 9, 2021) (lack of class member objections and one request for\n\nexclusion supported final approval); Puddu v. 6D Glob. Techs., Inc., No. 15-cv-8061-AJN, 2021\n\nWL 1910656, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. May 12, 2021) (lack of objections and requests for exclusion\n\n\u201cstrongly favors approval.\u201d); Oklahoma Firefighters Pension & Ret. Sys. v. Lexmark Int\u2019l, Inc.,\n\nNo. 17-cv-5543, 2021 WL 76328, at *2 (S.D.N.Y. Jan. 7, 2021) (\u201cno class members objected or\n\nopted out, which strongly favors approval.\u201d); In re Citigroup Inc. Sec. Litig., 965 F. Supp. 2d 369,\n\n382 (S.D.N.Y. 2013) (with \u201ca mere eleven objections\u201d from class members, \u201c[t]he numbers here\n\noverwhelmingly support approval of the settlement\u201d).\n\n \u201cThe favorable reaction of the overwhelming majority of class members to the Settlement\n\nis perhaps the most significant factor in [the] Grinnell inquiry.\u201d Pearlstein v. BlackBerry Ltd., No.\n\n13-cv-7060-CM-KHP, 2022 WL 4554858, at *3 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 29, 2022) (citing Wal-Mart\n\nStores, Inc. v. Visa U.S.A. Inc., 396 F.3d 96, 119 (2d Cir. 2005)). \u201cIf only a small number of\n\nobjections are received, that fact can be viewed as indicative of the adequacy of the settlement.\u201d\n\nId. (quoting Wal-Mart, 396 F.3d at 118). \u201cThe overwhelmingly positive reaction \u2013 or absence of\n\na negative reaction \u2013 weighs strongly in favor of confirming the Proposed Settlement.\u201d In re\n\n\n\n\n 3\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 76 Filed 02/28/23 Page 5 of 7\n\n\n\n\nFacebook, Inc., IPO Sec. & Derivative Litig., 343 F. Supp. 3d 394, 410 (S.D.N.Y. Nov. 26, 2018),\n\naff\u2019d, 822 F. App\u2019x 40 (2d Cir. 2020).\n\n Moreover, the absence of any objection or requests for exclusion by sophisticated\n\ninstitutional investors is further evidence of the fairness of the Settlement. See In re Signet\n\nJewelers Ltd. Sec. Litig., No. 1:16-CV-06728-CM-SDA, 2020 WL 4196468, at *6 (S.D.N.Y. July\n\n21, 2020) (\u201cthe absence of objections by these sophisticated class members is further evidence of\n\nthe fairness of the Settlement\u201d); In re Citigroup, 965 F. Supp. 2d at 382 (the lack of objections\n\nfrom institutional investors supported approval of settlement).\n\n The lack of objections from Class Members also supports approval of the Plan of\n\nAllocation. See Signet Jewelers, 2020 WL 4196468, at *6 (S.D.N.Y. July 21, 2020) (\u201cThe reaction\n\nof the Class also supports approval of the Plan of Allocation\u201d); In re Veeco Instruments Inc. Sec.\n\nLitig., No. 05-MDL-01695-CM, 2007 WL 4115809, at *14 (S.D.N.Y. Nov. 7, 2007) (\u201c[N]ot one\n\nclass member has objected to the Plan of Allocation which was fully explained in the Notice of\n\nSettlement sent to all Class Members. This favorable reaction of the Class supports approval of\n\nthe Plan of Allocation.\u201d).\n\n Finally, the positive reaction of the Class should also be considered with respect to Lead\n\nCounsel\u2019s request for an award of attorneys\u2019 fees and expenses. The absence of any objections to\n\nLead Counsel\u2019s requested award of fees and expenses supports a finding that the request is fair\n\nand reasonable. See Aclaris Therapeutics, 2021 WL 5847420, at *8 (\u201cThe absence of objections\n\nand the singular request for exclusion weighs in favor of the fee application.\u201d); In re Veeco, 2007\n\nWL 4115808, at *10 (S.D.N.Y. Nov. 7, 2007) (the absence of any class member objections\n\n\u201csuggests that the fee request is fair and reasonable\u201d); Maley v. Del Glob. Techs. Corp., 186 F.\n\nSupp. 2d 358, 374 (S.D.N.Y. 2002) (the lack of any objection to the fee request supported its\n\n\n\n\n 4\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 76 Filed 02/28/23 Page 6 of 7\n\n\n\n\napproval). The lack of any objections by institutional investors further supports approval of the\n\nfee and expense request. See In re Bisys Sec. Litig., No. 04 Civ. 3840-JSR, 2007 WL 2049726, at\n\n*1 (S.D.N.Y. July 16, 2007) (lack of objections from institutional investors \u201cwho presumably had\n\nthe means, the motive, and the sophistication to raise objections if they thought the [requested] fee\n\nwas excessive\u201d supported the approval of fee request).\n\nIII. CONCLUSION\n\n For the reasons set forth above, and the reasons set forth in Lead Plaintiff\u2019s and Lead\n\nCounsel\u2019s opening papers, Lead Plaintiff and Lead Counsel respectfully request that the Court\n\napprove the Settlement and Plan of Allocation and award the requested attorneys\u2019 fees and\n\nexpenses and award to Lead Plaintiff pursuant to 15 U.S.C. \u00a778u-4(a)(4).2\n\n\nDATED: February 28, 2023 /s/ Jacob A.

I am employed as a Senior Director by Kroll Settlement Administration LLC\n\n(\u201cKroll\u201d).

Since the execution of my Initial Mailing Declaration, Kroll has continued to\n\ndisseminate copies of the Postcard Notice in response to additional requests from potential Class\n\n\n1\n Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Stipulation and Order of\nSettlement (the \u201cStipulation\u201d), filed with this Court on October 24, 2022 (ECF No. 68-1), the Preliminary Approval\nOrder, and the Initial Mailing Declaration (as defined below).\n\n\n 1\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 77 Filed 02/28/23 Page 2 of 3\n\n\n\n\nMembers, brokers and nominees.

In addition,\n\nKroll has re-mailed a total of 1,142 Postcard Notices to persons whose original mailing was\n\nreturned by the U.S. Postal Service and for whom updated addresses were provided to Kroll by the\n\nPostal Service. Finally, upon information and belief, Broadridge and BNYM collectively mailed\n\nan additional 16,160 Postcard Notices and 31,801 emails containing links to the Notice.\n\n TELEPHONE HELPLINE AND WEBSITE\n\n 3.

This Order incorporates by reference the definitions in the Stipulation of Class\n\nAction Settlement dated October 12, 2022 (ECF No. 68-1) (\u201cStipulation\u201d), and all capitalized\n\nterms used, but not defined herein, shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Stipulation.\n\n 2. This Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this application and all matters\n\nrelating thereto, including all Class Members who have not timely and validly requested exclusion.\n\n 3. Notice of Lead Counsel\u2019s Fee Motion was given to all Class Members who could\n\nbe located with reasonable effort. The form and method of notifying the Class of the Fee Motion\n\nmet the requirements of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Securities\n\nExchange Act of 1934, as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (15\n\nU.S.C. \u00a778u-4(a)(7)), due process, and any other applicable law, constituted the best notice\n\npracticable under the circumstances, and constituted due and sufficient notice to persons and\n\nentities entitled thereto.\n\n 4. The Court hereby awards attorneys\u2019 fees of $_____________, which is equal to\n\n25% of the Settlement Amount, plus expenses in the amount of $_____________, together with\n\nthe interest earned on both amounts for the same time period and at the same rate as that earned\n\non the Settlement Fund until paid. The Court finds that the amount of fees awarded is fair,\n\n\n\n\n 2\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 79 Filed 02/28/23 Page 3 of 5\n\n\n\n\nreasonable, and appropriate under the \u201cpercentage-of-recovery\u201d method, as well as the lodestar\n\ncross-check.\n\n 5. The awarded attorneys\u2019 fees and expenses and interest earned thereon, shall be paid\n\nto Lead Counsel immediately upon execution of the Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal with\n\nPrejudice and this Order and subject to the terms, conditions, and obligations of the Stipulation,\n\nand in particular \u00b6\u00b67.1-7.2 thereof, which terms, conditions, and obligations are incorporated\n\nherein.\n\n 6. In making this award of fees and expenses to Lead Counsel, the Court has\n\nconsidered and found that:\n\n a. the Settlement has created a fund of $2,100,000.00 in cash that is already on deposit,\n\n and numerous Class Members who submit, or have submitted, valid Proof of Claim\n\n and Release forms will benefit from the Settlement created by Lead Counsel;\n\n b. over 11,523 copies of the Postcard Notice were disseminated to potential Class\n\n Members indicating that Lead Counsel would move for attorneys\u2019 fees in an amount\n\n not to exceed 25% of the Settlement Amount and for expenses in an amount not to\n\n exceed $30,000, plus interest on both amounts, and no objections to the fees or\n\n expenses were filed by Class Members;\n\n c. Lead Counsel pursued the Litigation and achieved the Settlement with skill and diligent\n\n advocacy;\n\n d. Lead Counsel expended substantial time and effort pursuing the Litigation on behalf of\n\n the Class;\n\n e. Lead Counsel pursued the Litigation entirely on a contingent basis;\n\n\n\n\n 3\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 79 Filed 02/28/23 Page 4 of 5\n\n\n\n\n f. the Litigation involves complex factual and legal issues and, in the absence of\n\n settlement, would involve lengthy proceedings whose resolution would be uncertain;\n\n g. had Lead Counsel not achieved the Settlement, there would remain a significant risk\n\n that the Class may have recovered less or nothing from Defendants;\n\n h. public policy concerns favor the award of reasonable attorneys\u2019 fees and expenses in\n\n securities class action litigation; and\n\n i. the attorneys\u2019 fees and expenses awarded hereby are fair and reasonable and consistent\n\n with awards in similar cases within the Second Circuit.\n\n 7. Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. \u00a778u-4(a)(4), the Court awards $___________ to Lead\n\nPlaintiff for the time he spent directly related to his representation of the Class.\n\n 8. Any appeal or any challenge affecting this Court\u2019s approval regarding the Fee\n\nMotion shall in no way disturb or affect the finality of the Judgment entered with respect to the\n\nSettlement.\n\n 9. In the event that the Settlement is terminated or does not become Final or the\n\nEffective Date does not occur in accordance with the terms of the Stipulation, this Order shall be\n\nrendered null and void to the extent provided in the Stipulation and shall be vacated in accordance\n\nwith the Stipulation.\n\n SO ORDERED.\n\nDATED: February 28, 2023\n\n\n Honorable Andrew L.

(ECF No. 69) (\u201cPreliminary Approval Order\u201d), on the application of\n\nthe parties for approval of the Settlement set forth in the Stipulation of Class Action Settlement\n\ndated October 12, 2022 (ECF No. 68-1) (\u201cStipulation\u201d). Due and adequate notice having been\n\ngiven to the Class as required in said Preliminary Approval Order, and the Court having considered\n\nall papers filed and proceedings had herein and otherwise being fully informed in the premises and\n\ngood cause appearing therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED\n\nthat:\n\n 1. This Judgment incorporates by reference the definitions in the Stipulation, and all\n\ncapitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the same meanings as set forth in the\n\nStipulation, unless otherwise set forth herein.\n\n 2. This Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of the Litigation and over all\n\nparties to the Litigation, including Class Members.\n\n 3. Pursuant to Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Court hereby\n\naffirms its determination in the Preliminary Approval Order and finally certifies, for purposes of\n\nthe Settlement only, a Class defined as: all Persons who purchased Bit Digital common stock\n\nbetween December 21, 2020 and January 11, 2021, inclusive (the \u201cClass Period\u201d). Excluded from\n\nthe Class are Defendants and their families; the officers, directors, and affiliates, and their legal\n\nrepresentatives, heirs, successors or assigns; and any entity in which Defendants have or had a\n\ncontrolling interest.\n\n\n\n\n 2\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 80 Filed 02/28/23 Page 3 of 8\n\n\n\n\n 4. Also excluded from the Class is any Person who would otherwise be a Class\n\nMember but who validly and timely requested exclusion in accordance with the requirements set\n\nby the Court, of which there are none.\n\n 5. The Court finds that (a) the Members of the Class are so numerous that joinder of\n\nall Class Members in the Class are impracticable; (b) there are questions of law and fact common\n\nto the Class which predominate over any individual question; (c) the claims of Lead Plaintiff are\n\ntypical of the claims of the Class; (d) Lead Plaintiff and his counsel have fairly and adequately\n\nrepresented and protected the Class; and (e) a class action is superior to other available methods\n\nfor the fair and efficient adjudication of the controversy, considering (i) the interests of the Class\n\nMembers individually controlling the prosecution with separate actions; (ii) the extent and nature\n\nof any litigation concerning the controversy already commenced by Class Members; (iii) the\n\ndesirability or undesirability of concentrating the litigation of these claims in this particular forum;\n\nand (iv) the difficulties likely to be encountered in the management of the class action.\n\n 6. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23, the Court hereby approves the\n\nSettlement set forth in the Stipulation and finds that:\n\n a. said Stipulation and the Settlement contained therein, are, in all respects, fair,\n\n reasonable, and adequate and in the best interest of the Class;\n\n b. there was no collusion in connection with the Stipulation;\n\n c. the Stipulation was the product of informed, arm\u2019s-length negotiations among\n\n competent, able counsel; and\n\n d. the record is sufficiently developed and complete to have enabled Lead Plaintiff and\n\n Defendants to have adequately evaluated and considered their positions.\n\n\n\n\n 3\n\f Case 1:21-cv-00515-ALC Document 80 Filed 02/28/23 Page 4 of 8\n\n\n\n\n 7. Accordingly, the Court authorizes and directs implementation and performance of\n\nall the terms and provisions of the Stipulation, as well as the terms and provisions hereof. The\n\nCourt hereby dismisses the Litigation and all claims asserted therein with prejudice. The Settling\n\nParties are to bear their own costs, except as and to the extent provided in the Stipulation and\n\nherein.\n\n 8. Upon the Effective Date, and as provided in the Stipulation, Lead Plaintiff shall,\n\nand each of the Class Members shall be deemed to have, and by operation of this Judgment shall\n\nhave, fully, finally, and forever released, relinquished, and discharged all Released Claims\n\n(including Unknown Claims) against the Released Defendant Parties, whether or not such Class\n\nMember executes and delivers the Proof of Claim and Release form or shares in the Net Settlement\n\nFund. Claims to enforce the terms of the Stipulation or any order of the Court in the Litigation are\n\nnot released.\n\n 9. Upon the Effective Date, and as provided in the Stipulation, all Class Members and\n\nanyone claiming through or on behalf of any of them, will be forever barred and enjoined from\n\ncommencing, instituting, prosecuting, or continuing to prosecute any action or other proceeding in\n\nany court of law or equity, arbitration tribunal, or administrative forum, asserting any of the\n\nReleased Claims against any of the Released Defendant Parties.\n\n 10. Upon the Effective Date, and as provided in the Stipulation, each of the Released\n\nDefendant Parties shall be deemed to have, and by operation of this Judgment shall have, fully,\n\nfinally, and forever released, relinquished, and discharged all Released Defendants\u2019 Claims\n\n(including Unknown Claims) against the Lead Plaintiff, each and all of the Class Members, and\n\nLead Counsel.

The Notice of Pendency of Class Action and Proposed Settlement given to the Class\n\nwas the best notice practicable under the circumstances, including the individual notice to all Class\n\nMembers who could be identified through reasonable effort. Said notice provided the best notice\n\npracticable under the circumstances of those proceedings and of the matters set forth therein,\n\nincluding the proposed Settlement set forth in the Stipulation, to all Persons entitled to such notice,\n\nand said notice fully satisfied the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 and the\n\nrequirements of due process. No Class Member is relieved from the terms of the Settlement,\n\nincluding the releases provided for therein, based upon the contention or proof that such Class\n\nMember failed to receive actual or adequate notice. A full opportunity has been offered to the\n\nClass Members to object to the proposed Settlement and to participate in the hearing thereon. The\n\nCourt further finds that the notice provisions of the Class Action Fairness Act, 28 U.S.C. \u00a71715,\n\nwere fully discharged and that the statutory waiting period has elapsed. Thus, the Court hereby\n\ndetermines that all Class Members are bound by this Judgment.\n\n 12. Any Plan of Allocation submitted by Lead Counsel or any order entered regarding\n\nany attorneys\u2019 fee and expense application shall in no way disturb or affect this Judgment and shall\n\nbe considered separate from this Judgment.\n\n 13. Neither the Stipulation nor the Settlement contained therein, nor any act performed\n\nor document executed pursuant to or in furtherance of the Stipulation or the Settlement: (a) is, or\n\nmay be deemed to be, or may be used as an admission of, or evidence of, the validity of any\n\nReleased Claim, or of any wrongdoing or liability of the Defendants or their respective Related\n\nPersons, or (b) is, or may be deemed to be, or may be used as an admission of, or evidence of, any\n\nfault or omission of any of the Defendants or their respective Related Persons in any civil, criminal,\n\nor administrative proceeding in any court, administrative agency, or other tribunal.
