The

On

pursuant to which the Family Trust agreed to purchase, and the Issuer agreed to sell to the Family Trust, certain securities of the Issuer
for an aggregate of $10 million, paid from working capital of Narrogal Nominees, consisting of: (i) 10,000 shares of Series D preferred
stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series D Preferred Stock”), with a stated value of $1,000 per share and convertible to
2,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $5.00 per share, and (ii) A warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the
“Series D A Warrants”) and B warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Series D B Warrants”
and together with the Series D A Warrants, the “Series D Warrants”), in a private placement (the “Series D PIPE”).
The
Series D Warrants are exercisable at a price of $6.00 per share, subject to adjustments as provided under the terms of the Series D Warrants.
The Series D Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after May 3, 2023, the closing date of the Series D PIPE (the “Series D
Closing Date”), until the expiration thereof, except that the Series D Warrants cannot be exercised by the Family Trust if, after

shares of Common Stock, which Maximum Percentage may be increased or decreased by the Family Trust, upon written notice to the Issuer,
to any specified percentage not in excess of 9.99% (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The Series D A Warrants have
a term of five years from the date of issuance, and the Series D B Warrants have a term of one year from the date of issuance.
In
connection with the consummation of the Series D PIPE, the Issuer filed the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations
of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Certificate of Designation”), which sets forth the terms and provisions
of the Series D Preferred Stock. Subject to limited exceptions, the Family Trust will not have the right to convert any portion of their
Series D Preferred Stock if the Family Trust, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or up to 9.99%
at the election of the Family Trust) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.
In
connection with the Series D PIPE, the Family Trust entered into a registration rights agreement, dated May 3, 2023 (the “Series
D Registration Rights Agreement”), with the other Purchasers (as defined therein) party thereto and the Issuer, pursuant to which
the Issuer agreed to submit to or file with the SEC, within 45 calendar days after the Series D Closing Date, a registration statement
registering the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series D Preferred Stock and Series D Warrants (the “Series
D Resale Registration Statement”), and the Issuer agreed to use its best efforts to have the Series D Resale Registration Statement
declared effective as promptly as possible after the filing thereof but no later than ninety (90) calendar days (or one hundred twenty
(120) calendar days if the SEC notifies the Issuer that it will review the Series D Resale Registration Statement) following the Series
D Closing Date.

The
Series E PIPE
On
August 15, 2023, the Issuer entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Series E Securities Purchase Agreement”) with
the Family Trust, pursuant to which the Family Trust agreed to purchase, and the Issuer agreed to sell to the Family Trust, certain securities
of the Issuer for an aggregate of $20.0 million, paid from working capital of Narrogal Nominees, consisting of (i) 1,131,856 shares of
Common Stock (the “PIPE Shares”), (ii) 20,000 shares of Series E preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series
E Preferred Stock”), with a stated value of $1,000 per share, convertible into 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $5.00

4,000,000 shares of Common Stock (“Series E B Warrants” and together with the Series E A Warrants, the “Series E Warrants”)
in a private placement (the “Series E PIPE”).
The
Series E Warrants are exercisable at a price of $6.00 per share, subject to adjustments as provided under the terms of the Series E Warrants.
The Series E Warrants are exercisable at any time on or after August 15, 2023, the closing date of the Series E PIPE (the “Series
E Closing Date”), until the expiration thereof, except that the Series E Warrants cannot be exercised by the Family Trust if, after
giving effect thereto, the Family Trust would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or up to 9.99% at the election of the Family Trust) of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Series E A Warrants have a term of five years from the date of issuance, and the Series E
B Warrants have a term of one year from the date of issuance.
In
connection with the consummation of the Series E PIPE, the Issuer filed the Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations
of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E Certificate of Designation”), which sets forth the terms and provisions
of the Series E Preferred Stock. Subject to limited exceptions, the Family Trust will not have the right to convert any portion of their
Series E Preferred Stock if the Family Trust, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (or up to 9.99%
at the election of the Family Trust) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.
In
connection with the Series E PIPE, the Family Trust entered into a registration rights agreement, dated August 15, 2023 (the “Series
E Registration Rights Agreement”), with the other Holders (as defined therein) party thereto and the Issuer, pursuant to which
the Issuer agreed to submit to or file with the SEC, within the later of (i) 45 calendar days after the Series E Closing Date and (ii)
45 calendar days after the SEC declares the Series D Resale Registration Statement effective, a registration statement registering the
resale of the PIPE Shares, shares of Common Stock underlying the Series E Preferred Stock and Series E Warrants, and certain other shares
(the “Series E Resale Registration Statement”), and the Issuer agreed to use its best efforts to have the Series E Resale
Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as possible after the filing thereof but no later than ninety (90) calendar days
(or one hundred twenty (120) calendar days if the SEC notifies the Issuer that it will review the Series E Resale Registration Statement)
following the later of (x) the Series E Closing Date and (y) the date the SEC declares the Series D Resale Registration Statement effective.
The
Issuer’s obligations under the Series E Securities Purchase Agreement, the Series E Warrants, the Series E Registration Rights
Agreement and the Series E Certificate of Designation are secured by a lien as described under the Deed of Trust, Mortgage, Assignment
of As-Extracted Collateral, Security Agreement, Fixture Filing and Financing Statement, dated August 15, 2023 (the “Deed of Trust”),
from Prairie Operating Co., LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Prairie LLC”), to Mr. O’Neill for the benefit
of the Family Trust. Upon commencement of a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding by Prairie LLC or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding against
Prairie LLC, the Family Trust will have the right and option to proceed with foreclosure and to sell all or any portion of the Collateral
(as defined in the Deed of Trust). In the event that no shares of Series E Preferred Stock remain outstanding (whether by conversion,
redemption or otherwise) or are no longer beneficially owned or otherwise held by the Family Trust (or any of its affiliates), the lien
on the Collateral under the Deed of Trust will be released in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth therein.
This
summary is qualified by the actual terms of (i) the Series E Securities Purchase Agreement, (ii) the Series E A Warrants, (iii) the Series
E B Warrants, (iv) the Series E Certificate of Designation, (v) the Series E Registration Rights Agreement, and (vi) the Deed of Trust,
forms of each of which are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.

In
re: Common Stock Purchase Warrants – Amendment and Waiver of Exercise Limitations
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
Reference
is made to the (1) A Common Stock Purchase Warrant, dated May 3, 2023, by and between Prairie Operating Co., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and the signatory to this letter agreement (the “Holder,” and such warrant,
the “May A Warrant”), (2) B Common Stock Purchase Warrant, dated May 3, 2023, by and between the Company and
the Holder (the “May B Warrant”), (3) A Common Stock Purchase Warrant, dated August 15, 2023, by and between
the Company and the Holder (the “August A Warrant,” and together with the May A Warrant, the “A
Warrants”) and (4) B Common Stock Purchase Warrant, dated August 15, 2023, by and between the Company and the Holder (the
“August B Warrant,” together with the May B Warrant, the “B Warrants,” and the A
Warrants together with the B Warrants, the “Warrants”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company
granted the Holder warrants to subscribe for and purchase from the Company certain shares (the “Warrant Shares”)
of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per Warrant Share. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall
have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Warrants.
Section
2(e) of the A Warrants and Section 2(d) of the B Warrants provide, in part, that the Company shall not effect any exercise of the applicable
Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of the applicable Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect
to such exercise the Holder or any of its Affiliates would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common
Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the applicable
Warrant (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that the Holder, upon notice to the Company,
may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of the applicable Warrant so long as, among other things, the
Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving
effect to the exercise of the applicable Warrant (such 9.99% ceiling, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation Ceiling”),
with any such increase not to be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company (such 61-day period, the
“Waiting Period”).
Section
5(l) of the Warrants provides that any provision of the Warrants may be waived or amended with the written consent of the Company and
the Holder. Accordingly, the Company and the Holder have mutually agreed to enter into this letter agreement to amend the Warrants to
increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation Ceiling from 9.99% to 25%, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein.
The
Holder hereby provides notice to the Company pursuant to Section 2(e) of the A Warrants and Section 2(d) of the B Warrants that it wishes
to increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation from 4.99% to 25%, and the Company and the Holder hereby agree to waive the Waiting Period
in connection with such increase of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
Sections
5(e), (k), (l) and (m) of the Warrants shall apply to this letter agreement, mutatis mutandis.
After
signing this letter agreement, please return the executed signature page to Daniel Sweeney, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of
the Company, at .
This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be
deemed to be one and the same agreement.
