AMERICAN BITCOIN CORP.
INSIDER TRADING POLICY

ADOPTED SEPTEMBER 3, 2025

In the course of conducting the business of American Bitcoin Corp. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), you may come into possession of material information about the Company or other entities that is not available to the investing public (referenced herein as “material nonpublic information,” as explained in greater detail below). You have a legal and ethical obligation to maintain the confidentiality of material nonpublic information. Generally, it is illegal to trade in securities of the Company, Hut 8 Corp. (“Hut 8”) or certain other entities (such as collaborators, customers, vendors, suppliers and other business partners of the Company) while you are in possession of material nonpublic information about the Company, Hut 8 or that other entity obtained in the course of your position with the Company.

The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has adopted this Insider Trading Policy (this “Policy”) in order to ensure compliance with the law and to avoid even the appearance of improper conduct by anyone associated with the Company. It is also Company policy to comply with applicable securities laws concerning trading in Company securities on the Company’s behalf.

The procedures and restrictions set forth in this Policy apply to all Company officers, directors and employees, wherever located. The Company also may determine that other persons, such as contractors or consultants, who have access to material nonpublic information, should be subject to this Policy. This Policy also applies to family members, such as spouses, minor children, adult family members who share the same household, and any other person or entity whose securities trading decisions are influenced or controlled by the officer, director or employee (collectively, “Related Insiders”). For additional information regarding post-termination transactions, see Section XIII of this Policy.

This Policy applies to transactions in common stock, preferred stock, bonds and other debt securities, options to purchase common stock, convertible debentures and warrants, as well as derivative securities whether or not issued by the Company, such as exchange-traded put or call options or swaps relating to the Company’s securities. See Sections VII, “Special Transactions” and X, “Prohibited Transactions” of this Policy for further discussion of certain types of securities and transactions.

Each person subject to this Policy is individually responsible for complying with this Policy and ensuring the compliance of any Related Insiders whose transactions are subject to this Policy. Accordingly, you should make your family and household members aware of the need to confer with you before they trade in Company securities, and you should treat all such transactions for purposes of this Policy and applicable securities laws concerning trading while in possession of material nonpublic information as if the transactions were for your own account.

In all cases, the responsibility for determining whether an individual is in possession of material nonpublic information rests with that individual, and any action on the part of the Company or any other employee pursuant to this Policy (or otherwise) does not in any way constitute legal advice or insulate an individual from liability under applicable securities laws.

What is Material Information? Under Company policy and United States federal securities laws, information is material if:

Information may be material even if it relates to future, speculative or contingent events and even if it is significant only when considered in combination with publicly available information. Material information can be positive or negative.

Depending on the facts and circumstances, information that could be considered material includes, but is not limited to, information pertaining to the following:

What is Nonpublic Information? Information is considered to be nonpublic unless it has been adequately disclosed to the public. This means that the information must be publicly disseminated and sufficient time must have passed for the securities markets to digest the information.

It is important to note that information is not necessarily public merely because it has been discussed in the press or on social media, which will sometimes report rumors. You should presume that information is nonpublic, unless you can point to the official release of that information by the Company in at least one of the following ways:

You may not attempt to “beat the market” by trading simultaneously with, or shortly after, the official release of material information. Although there is no fixed period for how long it takes the market to absorb information, out of prudence a person in possession of material nonpublic information should refrain from any trading activity for a reasonable period of time following its official release for the markets to react to the information and so investors have had time to buy or sell based on the information.

Twenty-Twenty Hindsight. If securities transactions ever become the subject of scrutiny, they are likely to be viewed after-the-fact with the benefit of hindsight. As a result, before engaging in any transaction you should carefully consider how the transaction may be construed in the bright light of hindsight. If you have any questions or uncertainties about this Policy or a proposed transaction, please ask the legal department.

In addition to trading while in possession of material nonpublic information, it is also a violation of this Policy to provide such information to another (tipping) who may trade or to advise another to trade on the basis of such information. It is a violation of law to do so if a trade then occurs, and insider trading liability may be extended to the tipper. This Policy applies regardless of whether the person or entity who receives the information, the “tippee,” is related to you and regardless of whether you receive any monetary benefit from the tippee.

The trading restrictions in this Policy do not apply in the case of the following transactions, except as specifically noted:

The trading restrictions in this Policy do not apply to exercises of: (i) stock options where no Company common stock is sold in the market to fund the option exercise price or related taxes (i.e., a net exercise or where cash is paid to exercise the option) or (ii) a tax withholding right pursuant to which a person has elected to have the Company withhold shares subject to an option to satisfy tax withholding requirements. The trading restrictions do apply, however, to subsequent sales of Company common stock received upon the exercise of options in which the proceeds are used to fund the option exercise price (i.e., a cashless exercise of options) or related taxes. In addition, the Company reserves the right to limit or restrict stock option exercises or tax withholdings not made pursuant to standing elections in appropriate circumstances.

The trading restrictions in this Policy do not apply to the vesting of restricted stock or the settlement of restricted stock units, or the exercise of a tax withholding right pursuant to which you elect to have the Company withhold shares of stock to satisfy tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of any restricted stock or settlement of any restricted stock units. The trading restrictions do apply, however, to any market sale of restricted stock or sale of Company common stock received upon the settlement of restricted stock units, including when the proceeds are used to fund the taxes related to the settlement.

Any other purchase of Company securities directly from the Company or sales of Company securities directly to the Company may be exempted from the trading restrictions of this Policy with approval of the General Counsel or the Board.

Gifts of securities may include gifts to trusts for estate planning purposes, as well as donations to a charitable organization. Whether a gift of securities is a transaction that should be avoided while the person making the gift is aware of material nonpublic information or is subject to a blackout period may depend on various circumstances surrounding the gift. Accordingly, you are required to obtain pre-clearance of the gift as outlined in Section VIII of this Policy.

Due to the heightened legal risk associated with the following transactions, the individuals subject to this Policy may not engage in the following:

You may not trade in options, warrants, puts and calls or similar instruments on Company securities. Given the relatively short term of publicly-traded options, transactions in options may create the appearance that a director, officer or other employee is trading based on material nonpublic information and focus a director’s, officer’s or other employee’s attention on short-term performance at the expense of the Company’s long-term objectives.

You may not engage in short sales of Company securities. Short sales may reduce a seller’s incentive to seek to improve the Company’s performance and often have the potential to signal to the market that the seller lacks confidence in the Company’s prospects.

Because a margin sale or foreclosure sale may occur at a time when the pledgor is aware of material nonpublic information or otherwise is not permitted to trade in Company securities, you may not hold Company securities in a margin account or otherwise pledge Company securities as collateral for a loan without approval from the Board.

You may not engage (directly or indirectly) in hedging transactions, or otherwise engage in transactions that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of Company securities. Hedging transactions include (but are not limited to) collars, equity swaps, exchange funds and prepaid variable forward sale contracts. Hedging transactions may allow a director, officer or other employee to continue to own Company securities, but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. This may lead to the director, officer or other employee no longer having the same objectives as the Company’s other shareholders.

You may not place standing or limit orders on Company securities, unless executed as part of an approved Rule 10b5-1 Plan discussed in Section XI of this Policy. Standing and limit orders create heightened risks for insider trading violations because there is no control over the timing of purchases or sales that result from standing instructions to a broker, and as a result, the broker could execute a transaction when you possess material nonpublic information.

Notwithstanding the prohibition against insider trading, SEC Rule 10b5-1 provides an affirmative defense against insider trading liability under Rule 10b-5. A person subject to this Policy can rely on this defense and trade in Company securities, regardless of their awareness of material nonpublic information, if the transaction occurs pursuant to a pre-arranged written trading plan (“Rule 10b5-1 Plan”) that was entered into when the person was not in possession of material nonpublic information and that complies with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1. Directors and officers (collectively, “Section 16 Insiders”) subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) should be aware that the Company will be required to make quarterly disclosures regarding all Rule 10b5-1 Plans entered into, amended or terminated by Section 16 Insiders and to include the material terms of such plans, other than pricing information.

The following requirements apply to all Rule 10b5-1 Plans:

Anyone subject to this Policy who wishes to enter into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan must submit the Rule 10b5-1 Plan to the General Counsel or an alternative approver designated by the General Counsel (or, in the case of the General Counsel, to the Chief Executive Officer or the Executive Chairman) for its approval at least five business days prior to the planned entry into the Rule 10b5-1 Plan. In addition, prior approval is required for any amendment or early termination of an effective Rule 10b5-1 Plan.

A director or employee may enter into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan only at a time when he or she is not in possession of material nonpublic information regarding the Company or its securities and, if subject to blackout periods, when a blackout period is not in effect under this Policy. Each plan must include a representation that, as of the date of adoption of the plan, the individual is not aware of any material nonpublic information about the Company or its securities, and that the plan is being adopted in good faith and not as a part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of Rule 10b5-1.

The waiting periods from the time a plan is adopted until the time of the first trade under the plan must comply with requirements of Rule 10b5-1. Under Rule 10b5-1, plans established by Section 16 Insiders must include a waiting period consisting of the later of (i) 90 days after the adoption of the plan, or (ii) the period ending two business days following the disclosure of the Company’s financial results in a Form 10-Q or Form 10-K for the completed fiscal quarter in which the plan was adopted that discloses the Company’s financial results (but in any event, this waiting period is subject to a maximum of 120 days after adoption of the plan). For all other individuals, the waiting period shall be 30 days after adoption of the plan.

Generally speaking, an individual entering into a Rule 10b5-1 Plan may have only one plan in place at any time. An exception to this restriction applies for certain separate plans with different brokers that would be treated as a single “plan” such as when a person holds Company securities in multiple brokerage accounts. Additionally, an individual may enter into one later-commencing plan so that the waiting period of the later plan can begin to run while an existing plan is in place, provided that the individual does not early terminate the first plan, in which case a full waiting period from the time of such termination must occur. Lastly, individuals may have an additional plan providing only for eligible sell-to-cover transactions, where the plan provides for sales of securities as are necessary to satisfy tax withholding obligations arising exclusively from the vesting of a compensatory stock award.

Rule 10b5-1 prohibits more than one plan in any 12-month period that is designed to effect a single transaction. Single transaction plans are generally discouraged.

Amendments to Rule 10b5-1 Plans will be permitted only at a time when: (i) the director or employee is not in possession of material nonpublic information and (ii) a blackout period is not in effect under this Policy. Furthermore, any amendment relating to the amount, price or timing of the purchase or sale of securities will be subject to the same waiting periods as would be applicable to a new plan, as described above.

A Rule 10b5-1 Plan may be terminated at any time upon notification to the General Counsel. However, terminating a Rule 10b5-1 Plan is strongly discouraged because it may call into question whether the plan was entered into and operated in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the insider trading rules, which could affect the availability of the Rule 10b5-1 affirmative defense.

Adoption of a Rule 10b5-1 Plan does not preclude trading outside of the plan that otherwise is in accordance with this Policy. However, directors and employees should be cognizant of the fact that the Rule 10b5-1 affirmative defense will not apply to such trades outside a Rule 10b5-1 Plan. In addition, under Rule 10b5-1, the director or employee may not have further influence over whether, when or how the trades under the plan are made once the plan is put in place, and therefore their trading outside of the plan must not have direct or indirect influence on the trading instructions under the plan. In other words, securities subject to the plan (e.g., shares underlying unexercised stock options) should not be purchased or sold outside the plan.

Each Section 16 Insider understands that the approval or adoption of a Rule 10b5-1 Plan in no way reduces or eliminates such person’s obligations under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, including such person’s disclosure and short-swing trading liabilities thereunder. If any questions arise, such person should consult with their own counsel in implementing a Rule 10b5-1 Plan. In addition, each Section 16 Insider must agree to cooperate with the Company in any reporting of the Rule 10b5-1 Plan in the Company’s SEC filings.

You should refer suspected violations of this Policy to the legal department or through the reporting procedures set forth in the Company’s Code of Conduct and/or Whistleblower Policy. In addition, if you:

you should not share it with anyone. To seek advice about what to do under those circumstances, you should contact the legal department. Consulting your colleagues may have the effect of exacerbating the problem, as containment of the information, until the legal implications of possessing it are determined, is critical.

This Policy continues to apply to transactions in Company securities even after a person’s service with the Company is terminated. If a person is in possession of material nonpublic information when his or her service terminates, that individual may not trade in Company securities until that information has become public or is no longer material. Questions or concerns on whether any continuing nonpublic information remains material should be directed to the General Counsel. The pre-clearance procedures specified in this Policy will cease to apply to transactions in Company securities upon the expiration of any blackout period or other Company-imposed trading restrictions applicable at the time of termination of service.

All persons subject to this Policy and their Related Insiders are subject to the following blackout periods, during which they may not trade in the Company’s securities (except by means of pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 Plans established in compliance with the Policy).

Quarterly Blackout Period. Because the announcement of the Company’s quarterly financial results will almost always have the potential to have a material effect on the market for the Company’s securities, you may not trade in the Company’s securities during the period beginning on the last day of the last month of the quarter and ending after the first full business day following the release of the Company’s earnings that quarter.

Interim Earnings Guidance Blackout. The Company may on occasion issue interim earnings guidance or other potentially material information by means of a press release, SEC filing on Form 8-K or other means designed to achieve widespread dissemination of the information. You should anticipate that trading will be blacked out while the Company is in the process of assembling the information to be released and until the information has been released and fully absorbed by the market.

Event-Specific Blackout. From time to time, an event may occur that is material to the Company and is known by only a few directors, officers and/or employees. The existence of an event-specific blackout will not be announced. If, however, a person whose trades are subject to pre-clearance requests permission to trade in the Company’s securities during an event-specific blackout, the General Counsel will inform the requesting person of the existence of a blackout period, without disclosing the reason for the blackout. Any person made aware of the existence of an event-specific blackout should not disclose the existence of the blackout to any other person.

Regulation BTR. Directors and officers may also be subject to event-specific blackouts pursuant to the SEC’s Regulation Blackout Trading Restriction, which prohibits certain sales and other transfers by insiders during certain pension plan blackout periods.

NOTE: Even if a blackout period is not in effect, at no time may you trade in Company securities if you are in possession of material nonpublic information about the Company. The failure of the General Counsel to notify you of an event-specific blackout will not relieve you of the obligation not to trade while in possession of material nonpublic information.

Persons subject to this Policy and their Related Insiders may not engage in any transaction involving the Company’s securities (including the exercise of stock options, gifts, loans, contributions to a trust or any other transfers) without first obtaining pre-clearance of the transaction from the legal department. Each proposed transaction will be evaluated to determine if it raises insider trading concerns or other concerns under federal laws and regulations. Any advice will relate solely to the restraints imposed by law and will not constitute advice regarding the investment aspects of any transaction. Clearance of a transaction must be re-requested if the transaction order is not placed within two business days of obtaining pre-clearance. If clearance is denied, the fact of such denial must be kept confidential by the person requesting such clearance.

When requesting pre-clearance, the requestor should carefully consider whether he or she may be aware of any material nonpublic information about the Company, and should describe fully those circumstances to the General Counsel. Section 16 Insiders should also indicate whether they have effected any non-exempt “opposite-way” transactions within the past six months, and should be prepared to report the proposed transaction on an appropriate Form 4 or 5, if applicable. The requestor should also be prepared to comply with SEC Rule 144 and file Form 144, if advisable, at the time of any sale.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, pre-clearance is not required for any trades made pursuant to a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 Plan adopted in accordance with the requirements of this Policy. Pre-clearance also is not required for the “Special Transactions” to which the Policy does not apply, subject to certain exceptions described in Section VII of this Policy.

In addition to the blackout periods and pre-clearance requirements described above, all Section 16 Insiders (and their Related Persons) are subject to the reporting requirements and other restrictions described in this section.

Under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, directors and officers of the Company, as well as beneficial owners of more than 10% of the outstanding shares of any class of voting Company equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, must file forms with the SEC disclosing their direct and indirect pecuniary interest in most transactions involving the Company’s equity securities. In this context, “equity securities” of the Company include shares of the classes of equity securities created under the Company’s governing documents, such as common stock, as well as any securities (regardless of whether issued by the Company) that are exchangeable for or convertible into, or that derive their value from, an equity security of the Company. These other securities are known as “derivative securities,” and include options, restricted share units, warrants, convertible securities and stock appreciation rights.

The legal department will assist directors and officers in preparing and filing the following Section 16 reports but each individual director and officer is responsible for the timing and contents of his or her reports:

A Form 5 need not be filed if all transactions otherwise reportable have been previously reported. If required, Form 5 must be filed within 45 days after the end of the Company’s fiscal year, e.g., February 14, or the first business day thereafter. Common types of transactions reportable on Form 5 include gifts and certain acquisitions of less than $10,000 in any six-month period, either of which may be reported on a voluntary basis on any Form 4 filed before the Form 5 is due.

The reports described above must also reflect any indirect ownership by directors and officers, including all holdings and transactions by Related Insiders. This includes changes in ownership by immediate family members living in the director’s officer’s household and any other person or entity over whom the individual exercises influence or control over his, her or its securities trading decisions. For this purpose, “immediate family” includes a spouse, children, stepchildren, grandchildren, parents, grandparents, stepparents and siblings, including in-laws and adoptive relationships.

Any questions concerning whether a particular transaction will necessitate filing of one of these forms, or how or when they should be completed should be asked of the legal department, or, if you prefer, your individual legal counsel. The Company must disclose in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and in its Proxy Statement any delinquent filings of Forms 3, 4 or 5 by directors and officers, and must post on its website, by the end of the business day after filing with the SEC, any Forms 3, 4 and 5 relating to the Company’s securities.

Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act provides exemptions for director and officer reporting of certain employee benefit plan events on Forms 4 and 5, including certain routine transactions under tax-conditioned thrift, stock purchase and excess benefit plans.

A transaction that results only in a change in the form of a person’s beneficial ownership is also exempt from reporting. An exempt “change in the form of beneficial ownership” would include, for example, a distribution of benefit plan securities to an insider participant where the securities were previously attributable to the insider. Exercises or conversions of derivative securities would not, however, be considered mere changes in beneficial ownership and would be reportable.

The vesting of most stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights is also not subject to the reporting requirements, although related share-withholding transactions, if any, would give rise to Form 4 reporting obligations.

In order to discourage directors and officers from profiting through short-term trading transactions in equity securities of the Company, Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act requires that any “short-swing profits” be disgorged to the Company. This is in addition to the reporting requirements described above.

“Short-swing profits” are the profits, whether real or notional, that result from any purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) of the Company’s equity securities within a six-month period, unless there is an applicable exemption for either transaction. It is important to note that this rule applies to any matched transactions in the Company’s securities (including derivative securities), not only a purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) of the same shares, or even of the same class of securities. Furthermore, pursuant to the SEC’s rules, profit is determined so as to maximize the amount that the director or officer must disgorge, and this amount may not be offset by any losses realized. “Short-swing profits” may exceed economic profits.

As indicated, to come within the short-swing rules, a purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) within any period of less than six months are matched to determine whether a director or officer has realized profit subject to the short-swing profit rule described above, but Rule 16b-3 creates an exemption for, or permits the Board or a qualifying committee to exempt, certain transactions between (i) a director or officer and (ii) the Company or certain benefit plans sponsored by the Company.

Under this rule, certain transactions involving acquisitions of equity securities under employee benefit plans are not counted as “purchases” for purposes of the short-swing profit rule, provided that the benefit plan meets various statutory requirements.

The Securities Act requires that securities may be sold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements. Directors and certain officers who are (or were within the prior 90 days) affiliates1 of the Company and who wish to sell Company securities may seek a “safe harbor” for their sales to establish an exemption from such registration requirements by complying with the conditions of Rule 144 applicable to affiliates. “Securities” under Rule 144 are broadly defined to include all securities, not just equity securities. The Rule 144 safe harbor is available not only to sales of common and preferred stock, but also to sales of bonds, debentures and any other form of security. Affiliates and others who seek to sell securities acquired directly from the Company or a Company affiliate in a series of transactions not involving any public offering may avail themselves of the safe harbor of Rule 144 by complying with the provisions applicable to resales of “restricted securities” (which apply, for affiliates, in addition to, and in conjunction with, the provisions of that Rule applicable to resales by affiliates).

The following summarizes relevant provisions of Rule 144, as they apply to resales by directors and officers seeking to take advantage of the safe harbor:

There must be adequate current public information available regarding the Company. This requirement is satisfied only if the Company has filed all reports required by the Exchange Act during the 12 months preceding the sale, other than Form 8-K reports.

The sale of Company shares by a director or officer must be made in one of the following manners:

Furthermore, the broker may not solicit or arrange for the solicitation of customers to purchase the shares. In addition, your broker likely has its own Rule 144 procedures (and must be involved in transmitting Form 144 (see Item D below)), so it is important to speak with your broker prior to any sale.

Even if your stock certificates do not contain any restrictive legends, you should inform your broker that you may be considered an affiliate of the Company.

If the number of securities proposed to be sold by a director or officer during any three-month period exceeds 5,000 shares or has an expected aggregate sale price in excess of $50,000, the director or officer must file a notice of sale on Form 144 with the SEC, prior to, or concurrently with, the placing of the order to sell securities.

Any restricted securities must be held for six months prior to reselling such securities.

In certain situations (e.g., securities acquired through stock dividends, splits, conversions or the net settlement of certain options), “tacking” of holding period is permitted, that is, the new securities will be deemed to have been acquired at the same time as the original securities.

The seriousness of securities law violations is reflected in the penalties such violations carry. A director’s resignation may be sought, or an officer will be subject to possible Company disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment. In addition, both the Company itself and individual directors, officers or employees may be subjected to both criminal and civil liability. These violations may also create negative publicity for the Company.

In the United States and many other countries, the personal consequences to you of illegal insider trading can be severe. In addition to injunctive relief, disgorgement and other ancillary remedies, U.S. law empowers the government to seek significant civil penalties against persons found liable of insider trading, including as tippers or tippees. The amount of a penalty could total three times the profits made or losses avoided. The maximum penalty may be assessed even against tippers for the profits made or losses avoided by all tippees, including remote tippees (i.e., others who may have been tipped by the tippee). Further, civil penalties of the greater of $2.6 million or three times the profits made or losses avoided can be imposed on any person who “controls” a person who engages in illegal insider trading.

Criminal penalties may also be assessed for insider trading. Any person who “willfully” violates certain provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws may be fined up to $5 million ($25 million for entities) and/or imprisoned for up to 20 years. Subject to applicable law, Company employees who violate this Policy may also be subject to discipline by the Company, up to and including termination of employment, even if the country or jurisdiction where the conduct took place does not regard it as illegal. Needless to say, a violation of law, or even a governmental or regulatory investigation that does not result in prosecution, can tarnish a person’s reputation and irreparably damage a career.

If you are located or engaged in dealings outside the U.S., be aware that laws regarding insider trading and similar offenses differ from country to country. Employees must abide by the laws in the country where located. However, you are required to comply with this Policy even if local law is less restrictive. If a local law conflicts with this Policy, you must consult the legal department.

Because of the technical nature of some aspects of the federal securities laws, all directors and officers should review this material carefully and contact the legal department if at any time (i) you have questions about this Policy or its application to a particular situation; or (ii) you plan to trade in the Company’s securities, but are unsure as to whether the transaction might be in conflict with the securities laws and/or this Company Policy.

All directors, officers and other employees subject to the procedures set forth in this Policy must acknowledge their understanding of, and intent to comply with, this Policy.
