A. Plan Voting FAQs 26

Plan Voting (Existing Common Shareholders) What am I being asked to vote on and what do I need to do to vote? • You are being asked to vote on two matters: 1) whether to vote to accept the Plan, to reject the Plan, or to abstain and 2) whether to “opt out” of the release provisions contained in section 10.6(b) of the Plan. • You make your decision on whether to vote to accept the Plan in Item 2 of the Ballot and whether to “opt out” in Item 3 of the Ballot (your broker’s forms may list these differently). Does the Company recommend that I vote to accept the Plan? • Yes. The special committee of independent directors of Core’s Board has unanimously approved the Plan. The Company believes the Plan is in the best interests of all stakeholders and recommends that all creditors and equity holders vote to accept the Plan. Does the Equity Committee recommend that I vote to accept the Plan? • Yes. The Equity Committee supports the Plan and recommends that equity holders vote to accept the Plan. What are they asking me regarding whether I should “opt out” of the release provisions? • For Item 3, only check the “OPT OUT” box if you elect not to grant the release of claims and causes of actions contained in section 10.6(b) of the Plan. Election to withhold consent is at your option. If you vote to accept the Plan, you may not check the “opt out” box. 27

These slides only discuss treatment and recoveries for convertible noteholders and existing shareholders, as well as voting and the Equity Rights Offering (“ERO”). - There are nuances, exceptions, and other significant aspects of the Plan that are not discussed in these FAQ slides. - Also, the estimates in these slides are subject to change. • It is important that creditors and shareholders review the Plan and Disclosure Statement before voting on the Plan or participating in the ERO. • These FAQs include references to the Disclosure Statement as DS-#, which corresponds with the relevant page number. • Please consult the Plan and Disclosure Statement for the definitions of any capitalized terms. • What will happen to existing common stock under the Plan? • Holders of existing common stock in Core Scientific as of the Effective Date will be issued new stock in exchange for their current holdings at a 25:1 ratio as described on page 12. - Once new common stock is issued, all existing stock will be cancelled. • What will happen to existing debt under the plan? • Most existing debt of Core Scientific will be cancelled under the Plan. - Holders will be issued new debt in exchange for current holdings. • Reorganized Core Scientific, Inc. will have a completely new capital structure after emergence from chapter 11. • When will the common stock exchange occur? • The exchange will happen on the “Effective Date” – after the Bankruptcy Court approves the Plan and other conditions are satisfied, expected to be Jan. 2024 (may be delayed). • What is the assumed value under the Plan? • Reorganized Core Scientific is deemed to have a Total Enterprise Value of $1.5 billion for purposes of valuing recoveries under the Plan. • The Plan Equity Value (value of new common stock) will be equal to Total Enterprise Value minus total expected debt (plus excess cash). - Core Scientific estimates the Plan Equity Value will be approximately $750-$800 million, subject to change based on the final total debt. • Will the new common stock trade on Nasdaq? • Core Scientific expects its new stock to trade on the Nasdaq on or shortly after the Effective Date under the symbol CORZ. 29

C. Current Common Shareholders Additional Information 30

Current Common Shareholders What is the total value of current common shareholders’ recovery under the Plan? • The precise value current common shareholders will receive under the Plan is unknown at this time. It will depend on certain contingencies that may occur before or after the Effective Date. • The table on page 17 demonstrates the recoveries and expected value to existing shareholders, including the recovery per million shares, based on current assumptions. • These recoveries are divided into: i. Stock and Warrants estimated to be distributed to existing common shareholders on the Effective Date ii. Stock and Warrants estimated to be distributed to existing shareholders after certain contingencies are resolved (such as Disputed Claims) • These estimates of both categories will continue to be refined as more information is known. • However, there are certain contingences that will not be resolved before the Effective Date, as described on the next slide. • Pages 34-35 explain the various assumptions underlying the expected recoveries and how existing shareholders will be impacted if actual outcomes differ from the assumptions. 31

Current Common Shareholders (cont’d) What issues impacting common shareholder recoveries will not be resolved as of the Effective Date? • As a result of certain contingencies, common shareholder recoveries will remain unknown on the Effective Date. One significant contingency is the final amount of creditor Claims. Numerous creditors have filed claims against the Company, but the Company does not agree that all of these are valid Claims – in other words, they are “disputed” and may not be resolved at the time initial distributions are made. As a result, Core Scientific must initially calculate existing shareholder recoveries as if all Disputed Claims are valid Claims. If the claims are not valid, they are “disallowed,” and the amount of creditor Claims decreases (increasing recoveries to common shareholders). • Additional distributions will be made as these contingencies are resolved. • Core Scientific expects many of the Disputed Claims eventually to be resolved favorably, enabling additional common stock to be distributed to existing shareholders as of the Plan distribution record date. • Below is a summary of the primary post-Effective Date contingencies. • Disputed Claims. (DS pg. 22) - Core Scientific will file a motion seeking approval of a proposed Disputed Claims Estimation Amount to establish the maximum number of New Common Interests distributable on account of Disputed Claims. On the Effective Date, Core Scientific will calculate all recoveries as if New Common Interests were issued on account of the Disputed Claims in an amount equal to the Disputed Claims Estimation Amount. If Disputed Claims are resolved in a lesser amount, the excess New Common Interests will be distributed to existing stockholders and 510(b) Claims (if any). • Unvested RSUs and Stock Options. (DS pg. 19) - On the Effective Date, Core Scientific will issue and reserve as treasury stock common stock in an amount sufficient to make distributions to Holders of Unvested RSUs and Stock Options assuming that all such Unvested RSUs will vest and all Stock Options will be exercised (and receive stock at the reduced amount existing shareholders receive). If any such instruments are later forfeited (for example if the employee resigns), the excess reserved stock will be distributed to existing stockholders as of the Plan distribution record date and Section 510(b) Claims. • Incremental Convertible Noteholders Equity Distribution. (DS pg. 13-14) - Under the Incremental Convertible Noteholders Equity Distribution, new stock equal to the following amounts will be issued to existing Convertible Noteholders instead of existing shareholders: i. Court-approved fees payable to Skadden Arps (expected to be $1.5 million) and ii. Court-approved fees and expenses of the Official Equity Committee above $6.75 million (currently estimated to be $10 million but could be higher). - On the Effective Date, Core Scientific will calculate distributions on account of the Incremental Convertible Noteholder Equity Distribution in an amount equal to the estimated amount of all such fees. If the ultimate amount is later determined to be less than estimated, any excess new common stock will be distributed to existing stockholders and 510(b) Claims. 32

Current Common Shareholders (cont’d) How many shares of new common stock will existing common shareholders receive? • Core Scientific has decided to have a lower number of outstanding shares of stock post-reorganization as compared to the number of common shares currently outstanding. • The number of new common shares issued under the Plan (to all stakeholders) is estimated to be ~18% of the total shares currently outstanding. • Thus, the number of common shares an existing shareholder will receive under the Plan is a fraction of the number of shares it currently holds due to: i. dilution from New Common Interests being issued to different creditors under the Plan in satisfaction of their Claims, ii. dilution from the ERO, and iii. change in the total number of shares outstanding (similar to a reverse stock split). (1) • It is currently estimated that for every 25 shares of common stock held by an existing shareholder, it will receive (i) 1 share of new common stock in definitive consideration and (ii) 0.5 shares of new common stock in additional consideration based on Core’s estimate of the outcome of certain contingencies that will occur before or after the Effective Date. • This is in addition to the Warrants and Subscription Rights to participate in the ERO. 1) Exchange ratio is subject to change. Prior materials assumed a 25:1 exchange ratio. 33
