Insights
Range Impact sets up AI‑focused JV and a large, milestone-based warrant.
Range Impact formed a 50/50 joint venture to redevelop its Fola mine site into a power and data center platform. Governance is balanced, with each partner appointing one manager and a jointly agreed third, and key actions requiring unanimous approval.
The company issued a seven-year warrant for up to 14,500,000 shares at $0.40 per share to Time Complexity WV, vesting only as specific project milestones are met. This structure ties potential equity issuance to project progress rather than upfront dilution.
The JV can secure long-term site control through an option to lease and later purchase land at $10,000 per acre, subject to financing and construction-readiness conditions. Actual development and capital needs will depend on future technical, commercial, and regulatory outcomes disclosed in subsequent filings.

JV Entity Operating Agreement
On July 1, 2026, Range Sky View Land, LLC (“Range Sky”), a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Range Impact, Inc. (the “Company”) and Time Complexity WV, LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company (“Time Complexity WV”), entered into an Operating Agreement (the “Operating Agreement”) to form Time Complexity Appalachia, LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company (the “JV Entity”). Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, Range Sky and Time Complexity WV each own a fifty percent (50%) membership interest in the JV Entity. The JV Entity, directly or through one or more special purpose subsidiaries, intends to develop a power generation and data center facility at the Fola mine site in West Virginia (the “Project”).
Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the JV Entity is managed by a three-person Board of Managers (the “Board of Managers”). Range Sky and Time Complexity WV are each entitled to appoint one manager, and the third manager is appointed by mutual agreement of Range Sky and Time Complexity WV. Except as otherwise provided in the Operating Agreement, actions of the Board of Managers require the approval of a majority of the managers then in office. Certain specified matters require the unanimous approval of all managers. In addition, certain fundamental actions -- including the commencement of bankruptcy or dissolution proceedings, the sale of all or substantially all of the JV Entity’s assets or business, and amendments to the Operating Agreement -- require the unanimous consent of the Board of Managers and the members of the JV Entity at the time of such amendment. Distributions, if any, shall be made to members on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective membership interests. The Operating Agreement does not require members to make any initial cash capital contributions to the JV Entity. Any future capital requirements of the JV Entity may be funded through loans made by the members, on such terms as may be agreed upon from time to time in accordance with the Operating Agreement. Any such loans shall be secured by the assets of the JV Entity and will rank pari passu, with each lending member entitled to its pro rata share of the collateral and repayment proceeds.
The Operating Agreement contains other terms, covenants, representations and warranties that are customary for a transaction of this nature.
The foregoing description of the Operating Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the Operating Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
Warrant
On July 1, 2026, in connection with the transactions referenced in this Current Report, the Company issued a Common Stock Purchase Warrant (“Warrant”) to Time Complexity WV pursuant to which Time Complexity WV, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions set forth therein, is entitled to purchase up to 14,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Warrant has a seven-year term. One-third of the Warrant shall vest upon the occurrence of each one of the following three (3) milestones: (i) the public announcement by the State of West Virginia of its support for the Project; (ii) the receipt by the JV Entity of a written report prepared by an independent party confirming that the Project is technically and commercially feasible; and (iii) the execution by the JV Entity (or any of its subsidiaries) of one or more binding agreements relating to the Project, including, without limitation, agreements with respect to engineering, development, financing, construction, operations, power supply, compute infrastructure, data center tenancy, or other commercialization (the “Commercialization Milestone”), in each case as more particularly described in the Warrant. If the Commercialization Milestone is achieved prior to the other milestones, the Warrant will vest in full. Time Complexity WV will have 120 days to exercise the vested Warrant following achievement of the applicable milestone(s). The exercise price per share of common stock under the Warrant is $0.40, subject to adjustments for stock dividends, splits, and other combinations. The Warrant and any underlying Warrant Shares that have not yet vested shall automatically fully vest upon the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrant) or in the event of the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company during the Warrant’s term.
In addition to the above terms, the Warrant also contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants for a transaction of this nature.

Pursuant to the Option Agreement, Range Sky has granted the JV Entity, for nominal consideration, an option to lease certain real property located in West Virginia for a term of five (5) years (the “Option Period”). The Option Period may be extended for an additional one (1) year period if the JV Entity is diligently pursuing the Project using good faith commercially reasonable efforts. The JV Entity may exercise the option by delivering written notice to Range Sky during the Option Period (the “Exercise Notice”) which notice shall include the following: (i) a detailed description and property map of the property that the JV Entity desires to lease (the “Leased Premises”) with reasonable specificity, (ii) the JV Entity’s intended use of the Leased Premises, and (iii) the name of any third-party user of the Leased Premises and the agreed upon terms for the use thereof (which may be in the form of a memorandum of understanding, letter of intent, term sheet, or similar document) with reasonably sufficient detail ((i) – (iii) collectively, “Lease Conditions”). Range Sky shall have no obligation to enter into a Lease with the JV Entity after receiving an Exercise Notice until the Lease Conditions have been satisfied in Range Sky’s sole discretion. The option is non-transferable, except in connection with a transaction involving the sale of all or substantially all of the JV Entity’s assets to any third-party entity or to any third-party entity into which the JV Entity may be merged or combined where the JV Entity is not the surviving entity.
The Lease will provide for nominal annual rent on a triple net basis, pursuant to which the JV Entity will be responsible for all costs and expenses relating to the Leased Premises including, without limitation, real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, development, and construction. The Leased Premises will be delivered and accepted on an “as is” basis.
