None of the information contained on this Site constitutes a recommendation, solicitation or offer by Galaxy Digital or its affiliates to buy or sell any securities, futures, options or other financial instruments or provide any investment advice or service. The content on this Site is provided for information purposes only. Except where otherwise indicated, the information on this Site is based on matters as they exist as of the date of preparation and not as of any future date and will not be updated or otherwise revised to reflect information that subsequently becomes available, or circumstances existing or changes occurring after the date hereof. Certain information contained herein (including financial information) has been obtained from published and nonpublished sources. Such information has not been independently verified by Galaxy Digital, and Galaxy Digital does not assume responsibility for the accuracy of such information.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no information contained on this Site constitutes or would be deemed to constitute an invitation in any jurisdiction to invest or otherwise deal in the shares (“Shares”) of Galaxy Digital Holdings Ltd. (“GDH”), or the interests of the funds advised by Galaxy (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). None of the information contained in this Site constitutes an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy or subscribe for, any Shares, interests in the Funds or other securities in the United States or in any other jurisdiction, nor shall it, or the fact of its distribution, form the basis of, or be relied upon, in connection with or act as an inducement to enter into any contract or commitment therefor.
If any offer and sale of interests in a Fund is made, it will be pursuant to the confidential offering memorandum of the applicable Fund (the “Offering Memorandum”). Any decision to make an investment in a Fund should be made after reviewing such Offering Memorandum, conducting such investigations as the investor deems necessary and consulting the investor’s own investment, legal, accounting and tax advisors in order to make an independent determination of the suitability and consequences of an investment.
Shares may not be purchased by an “employee benefit plan” within the meaning of the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), including (i) an investor using assets of: (A) an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA that is subject to Title I of ERISA; (B) a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “IRC”), including an individual retirement account or other arrangement that is subject to Section 4975 of the IRC; or (C) an entity which is deemed to hold the assets of any of the foregoing types of plans, accounts or arrangements that is subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC.
Neither GDH nor any of its affiliates is, or expects to be, registered as an investment company under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and investors will not be entitled to the benefits of the Investment Company Act.
In addition, the Shares in GDH have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Consequently, Shares in GDH may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, “U.S. persons” as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. No public offering of any Shares in GDH is being, or has been, made in the United States.

Business Continuity Plan
Galaxy Digital is committed to protecting the interests of our clients in the event of Significant Business Disruption (SBD). The Business Continuity Plan summary below details how we will respond to events that significantly disrupt our business.
Our Firm will respond as immediately as practicable to an SBD by:
safeguarding employees’ lives and Firm and client property,
making a financial and operational assessment,
recovering and resuming operations,
protecting the Firm’s books and records, and
allowing clients access to our expertise and services to pursue existing engagements.
In the unlikely event that we determine we are unable to continue our business, we will notify our clients to that effect and make available to each of them any records and other documents we maintain related to the continuation of their business. The Firm has a comprehensive architecture for the electronic back-up and recovery of its data through its data hosting providers.
In the event of an SBD, we will authorize employees to remain at each person’s respective home using the contact information provided to us. Each individual has home telephone and/or cellular phone contact information. Actual physical office space is not necessary to the continuity of our operations during a dire emergency and for short periods of time. In the event of a long-term SBD, we will consider moving our staff from affected offices to the closest of our unaffected office locations.
We communicate with our clients using the telephone, email, our website, fax, US mail, delivery services and in-person visits at our Firm or at the other’s location. In the event of an SBD, we will assess which means of communication are still available to us, and use the means closest in speed and form (written or oral) to the means that we have used in the past to communicate with the other party. For example, if we have communicated with a party by email but the Internet is unavailable, we will call them on the telephone and follow up where a record is needed with paper copy in the US mail or rapid delivery service.
If you have questions regarding our Business Continuity Plan, you may contact us at compliance@galaxy.com. The Firm will review this Business Continuity Plan at least annually to modify it for any changes in our operations, structure, business or location.
