Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Hut 8 Corp. entered into a new credit agreement that provides a revolving credit facility of up to $200 million for its subsidiary Hut 8 One LLC, with Hut 8 Mining Holding Corp. as pledgor and Two Prime Lending Limited as lender and administrative agent. Borrowings will bear interest at 7.99% per year and the facility will mature 364 days after the first borrowing. The company expects to use funds for general corporate purposes.

The facility is secured by certain Bitcoin held with BitGo Trust Company as collateral, and Two Prime’s recourse is limited to this collateral. A margin call occurs if the ratio of collateral value to outstanding principal falls to 135% or below, and the borrower may be required to post additional Bitcoin to restore the ratio to 160%. If the ratio is at least 190% for three consecutive days and other conditions are met, the borrower can request a partial release of collateral.

Insights

Hut 8 adds a short-term, Bitcoin-secured credit line of up to $200 million with defined margin protections.

The agreement gives Hut 8’s subsidiary access to a revolving facility of up to $200 million at a fixed 7.99% annual interest rate, maturing 364 days after the first borrowing. Because it is revolving, amounts repaid before the maturity date can be borrowed again, which can help manage liquidity for general corporate purposes.

The borrowing is secured by certain Bitcoin held with BitGo Trust Company, and the lender’s recourse is limited to this collateral. The margin framework is detailed: a margin call event occurs if the collateral-to-principal ratio is 135% or less, with a requirement to add collateral so the ratio is 160% after the top-up, while collateral can be released when the ratio is at least 190% for three consecutive days and conditions are satisfied. Events of default allow the lender to use, transfer, or sell the collateral under New York’s Uniform Commercial Code, so actual risk and flexibility will depend on Bitcoin price movements and how much of the facility the company chooses to draw.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 25, 2025, Hut 8 MB One LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), Hut 8 Mining Holding Corp., a British Columbia corporation (“Pledgor”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hut 8 Corp. (the “Company”), entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Borrower, as borrower, Pledgor, as pledgor, and Two Prime Lending Limited (“Two Prime”), as lender and administrative agent.

 

The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $200 million. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to 7.99% per annum. The facility will mature 364 days after the date of the first borrowing (the “Maturity Date”). The Borrower may prepay any outstanding amounts borrowed, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time prior to the Maturity Date. Amounts prepaid may be reborrowed, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

 

The funds made available pursuant to the Credit Agreement are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. The Borrower’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by the Pledgor’s interest in certain Bitcoin (the “Collateral”) held in the custody of BitGo Trust Company, Inc. (“Custodian”) and Two Prime’s recourse under the Credit Agreement is limited to the Collateral.

 

If the ratio between the fair value of the Collateral and the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the facility (the “Actual Margin Ratio”) at any time during the term is equal to or less than 135%, a margin call event occurs. Upon a margin call event, Two Prime may deliver a notice to the Borrower requiring additional collateral be posted such that the Actual Margin Ratio is equal to 160% after taking into account the additional collateral. Two Prime cannot deliver more than one margin call notice per calendar day.

 

The Borrower has the right to request that a portion of the Collateral be released by the Custodian if the Actual Margin Ratio is equal to or greater than 190% for three consecutive calendar days and certain other conditions are satisfied.

 

The Custodian does not have any right to lend, pledge, hypothecate or re-hypothecate the posted Collateral. If certain events of default as defined in the Credit Agreement occur, Two Prime may exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies in respect of the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York, such as, among others, the right to use the Collateral to satisfy payments outstanding, transfer the Collateral into its own name, and sell, assign, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral.

 

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
