Introduction. This MOR is unaudited and does not purport to represent financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and it is not intended to fully reconcile to the consolidated financial statements prepared by the Debtors. Information contained in this MOR has been derived from the Debtors’ books and records, but does not reflect in all circumstances presentation for GAAP or SEC reporting purposes. Therefore, to comply with their obligations to provide MORs during these chapter 11 cases, the Debtors have prepared this MOR using the best information presently available to them, which has been collected, maintained, and prepared in accordance

The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases, along with the last four digits of each Debtor’s federal tax identification number, are as follows: Core Scientific Mining LLC (6971); Core Scientific, Inc. (3837); Core Scientific Acquired Mining LLC (6074); Core Scientific Operating Company (5526); Radar Relay, Inc. (0496); Core Scientific Specialty Mining (Oklahoma) LLC (4327); American Property Acquisition, LLC (0825); Starboard Capital LLC (6677); RADAR LLC (5106); American Property Acquisitions I, LLC (9717); and American Property Acquisitions VII, LLC (3198). The Debtors’ corporate headquarters is 210 Barton Springs Road, Suite 300, Austin, Texas 78704. The Debtors’ service address is 2407 S. Congress Ave, Suite E-101, Austin, TX 78704. Page 1

Reservation of Rights. This MOR is limited in scope, covers the period beginning on October 1, 2023 and ending October 31, 2023, and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements of the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases. The unaudited financial information for this report has been derived from the Debtors’ books and records. The information presented herein has not been subject to all procedures that typically would be applied to financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Upon the application of such procedures, the Debtors believe that the financial information could be subject to material change. The information furnished in this MOR includes normal recurring adjustments but does not include all of the adjustments that typically would be made for interim financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

Basis of Presentation. Although the Debtors generally prepare their financial statements on a consolidated basis, the MOR has been prepared on an entity-by-entity basis (excluding most intercompany eliminations) for Debtors Core Scientific, Inc., Core Scientific Acquired Mining LLC, Core Scientific Operating Company, Core Scientific Mining LLC, Radar Relay, Inc., Core Scientific Specialty Mining (Oklahoma) LLC, American Property Acquisition, LLC, Starboard Capital LLC, RADAR LLC, American Property Acquisitions I, LLC, and American Property Acquisitions VII, LLC. The financial information contained herein is unaudited, limited in scope, covers a limited time period, and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements for chapter 11 debtors issued by the UST.

Accounting Principles. The Debtors maintain their financial records according to GAAP, however the MOR does not purport to represent financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, nor are they intended to be fully reconciled with the financial statements of the Debtors.

Currency. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts in the MOR are reflected in U.S. dollars.

Consolidated Entity Accounts Payable and Disbursement Systems. Cash is received and disbursed by the Debtors as described in the Emergency Motion of Debtors for Entry of Interim and Final Orders (I) Authorizing Debtors to (A) Continue their Existing Cash Management System, (B) Maintain Existing Business Forms and Intercompany Arrangements, (C) Continue Intercompany Transactions, and (D) Continue Utilizing Employee Credit Cards; and (II) Granting Related Relief (Docket No. 12) (the “Cash Management Motion”) and the Debtors’ receipt and disbursement of cash is consistent with the Debtors’ historical cash management practices. Due to the consolidated cash management reporting system, certain cash payments may be paid out of a legal entity that is different than the legal entity at which the expenses were incurred. Also, certain cash receipts may be received in a different legal entity than the legal entity at which the accounts receivable is recorded. Disbursements attributed to each entity represent the entity on behalf of which payments were made, on a proportional allocated basis, from the consolidated cash management system.

Supporting Documentation. At the direction of the U.S. Trustee, the following schedules are attached to the MORs: (i) Statement of Cash Receipts and Disbursements; (ii) Balance Sheet; (iii) Income Statement (profit or loss statement); and (iv) Schedule of Payments to Insiders.

Part 1, Cash Receipts and Disbursements. Cumulative quarter-to-date for Q4 2023 disbursements are reported in the Cumulative figures in the MOR. Cumulative case to date total disbursements through October 31, 2023 are $427,954,805.

Part 2: Asset and Liability Status. Long-term lease liabilities resulting from the Debtors’ office / location leases and equipment / fixed asset leases are reported as prepetition unsecured debt. Beginning with the April MOR, the (i) April 2022 $60 million Bridge Promissory Note with BRF Finance Co, LLC and (ii) April 2022 $15 million Bridge Promissory Note with B. Riley Commercial Capital, LLC (collectively, the “Unsecured Bridge Notes”), are also reported as prepetition unsecured debt, whereas the Unsecured Bridge Notes were inadvertently included in prepetition priority debt on previous monthly operating reports.

Part 3, Assets Sold or Transferred. The Company regularly receives credits and/or coupons from Bitmain Technologies Ltd.’s reward and price protection programs. The Company subsequently redeems these credits and/or coupons for new ASIC miner acquisitions or sells them to third parties when they are not able to be utilized by the Company. The Company may recognize other income when the credits and/or coupons are redeemed in noncash acquisitions or sold to third parties.

Part 5: Professional Fees and Expenses. For purposes of the MORs, bankruptcy professional fees are considered approved if the applicable monthly fee statement has been served and the objection deadline with regard to such monthly fee statement has expired prior to the end date of the MOR period.

Part 7 Questionnaire. Pursuant to certain orders of the Bankruptcy Court entered in the Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “First Day Orders”), the Debtors were authorized (but not directed) to pay, among other things, certain prepetition claims of their employees, taxing authorities, insurers, critical vendors, and certain other prepetition creditors. Amounts paid pursuant to the First Day Orders are monitored as to limits provided in the applicable orders of the Bankruptcy Court governing payment of such prepetition obligations, and this report is available to the U.S. Trustee as required.
