Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This Schedule 13D (this “Schedule 13D”) relates to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Core Scientific, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 210 Barton Springs Road, Suite 300, Austin, Texas 78704.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

This Schedule 13D is being filed by Gullane Mining Partners, LLC, Gullane Mining Partners II, LLC, Gullane Mining Partners III, LLC, Gullane Digital Asset Partners, LLC, Gullane Digital Asset Partners QP, LLC and Gullane Capital Partners LLC. (collectively, the “Gullane Entities” and each, a “Gullane Entity”). Each Gullane Entity is organized as a Delaware limited liability company and was formed for the purpose of making an investment in equity and/or debt securities issued by the Issuer. The principal office and business address of each Gullane Entity is c/o Gullane Capital LLC, 640 S. Perkins Road, Memphis, TN 38117. The manager of each Gullane Entity is Gullane Capital LLC (“Gullane Capital”). Gullane Capital LLC is managed by Richard A. Miller, III (“Mr. Miller”).

None of the Gullane Entities acquired beneficial ownership of the securities of the Issuer with the purpose or effect of changing or influencing the control of the Issuer or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect, or in connection with any plan or proposal that would be subject to disclosure under Item 4 of Schedule 13D with respect to the Issuer.

Each of the Gullane Entities, continue to hold Common Stock or secured convertible notes convertible into Common Stock, as applicable, in their ordinary course of business, not with the purpose or effect of changing or influencing the control of the Issuer or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect, and not in connection with any plan or proposal that would be subject to disclosure under Item 4 of Schedule 13D with respect to the Issuer. However, each Gullane Entity is filing this Schedule 13D because of the actions described in Item 4 below.

(b) – (c) and (f)

The business address of Mr. Miller is 640 S. Perkins Road, Memphis, TN 38117.

Mr. Miller’s present principal occupation is the manager of Gullane Capital, a registered investment adviser. Gullane Capital’s principal business address is 640 S. Perkins Road, Memphis, TN 38117.

Mr. Miller is a citizen of the United States of America.

(d) and (e) During the last five years, none of the Gullane Entities nor Mr. Miller has been convicted in any criminal proceedings (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of which such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Neither the present filing nor anything contained herein shall be construed as an admission that any Gullane Entity or Gullane Capital constitutes a “person” for any purposes other than Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

As of December 22, 2022, the Gullane Entities, in the aggregate, held beneficial ownership of 16,024,247 shares of Common Stock, including 7,726,501 shares of Common Stock that are issuable upon conversion of approximately $61.8 million in aggregate principal amount of secured convertible notes acquired for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $57 million. Such acquisitions were made for investment purposes with available funds in the ordinary course of business of each Gullane Entity.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

All of the Common Stock of the Issuer reported on this Schedule 13D was acquired in the ordinary course of business for investment purposes by funds and accounts for which certain of the Advisory Subsidiaries act as investment advisers.

In connection with the filing by the Issuer and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “Debtors”) of voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), the Debtors entered into a Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of December 22, 2022 (the “DIP Credit Agreement”), with Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “DIP Lenders”).

Pursuant to the terms of the DIP Credit Agreement, the DIP Lenders provided new financing commitments to the Issuer under a new money multiple draw term loan facility (the “New Money DIP Facility”) in an initial aggregate principal amount of up to $75 million, approximately $57 million of which was committed to by the initial DIP Lenders. Under the New Money DIP Facility, (i) $37.5 million will be available following Bankruptcy Court approval on an interim basis (the “Interim DIP Order”), and (ii) up to $37.5 million will be available following Bankruptcy Court approval on a final basis (the “Final DIP Order”), subject to obtaining commitments for the full amount of the New Money DIP Facility.

The DIP Credit Agreement provides for a credit facility pursuant to which up to $75 million of aggregate claims of the holders of the Issuer’s secured convertible notes who are DIP Lenders (or affiliates, partners or investors of the DIP Lenders) will, upon entry of the Final DIP Order, automatically be deemed substituted and exchanged for, and converted, into (such conversion, the “Roll Up”) debtor-in-possession loans (the “Roll Up Loans”) (such credit facility, together with the New Money DIP Facility, the “DIP Facility”) on a cashless dollar for dollar basis, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions in the DIP Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the New Money DIP Facility will bear interest at a rate of 10% which, together with certain fees payable in connection with the DIP Facility, will be payable in kind. Roll Up Loans will not bear interest. The DIP Lenders will receive upfront commitment fees equal to 2% of the aggregate commitments under the New Money DIP Facility when drawn, payable in kind, and exit fees equal to (i) in the case of an acceptable exit roll transaction, (x) 3% of the accreted outstanding principal amount of the New Money Loans at such time, and (y) 2% of the outstanding principal amount of the Roll Up Loans as set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement, or (ii) otherwise (x) 15% of the accreted outstanding principal amount of the New Money Loans at such time and (y) 2% of the outstanding principal amount of the Roll Up Loans at such time as set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement. The DIP Credit Agreement includes milestones, representations and warranties, covenants applicable to the Debtors, and events of default. If an event of default under the DIP Credit Agreement occurs, the Administrative Agent may, among other things, permanently reduce any remaining commitments and declare the outstanding obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable.

The DIP Credit Agreement has a maturity date of June 21, 2023, which can be extended, under certain conditions, by an additional three months to September 21, 2023. The DIP Credit Agreement will also terminate on the date that is the earliest of the following (i) January 25, 2023, if no Final DIP Order is entered (or such later date as may be agreed in writing by the Required Lenders (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement)), (ii) the maturity date, (ii) the date of consummation of any transaction pursuant to which all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and the other credit parties will be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed, (iii) the effective date of a plan in the Chapter 11 Cases, and (iv) the date on which all amounts owed thereunder become due and payable and the commitments are terminated.

None of the Gullane Entities are a party to the DIP Credit Agreement. However, it is anticipated that certain newly formed entities affiliated with the Gullane Entities and managed by Gullane Capital may join as a lender to the DIP Credit Agreement in the future.

The foregoing description of the DIP Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the DIP Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated by reference herein.

On December 22, 2022, certain of the Gullane Entities also entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”), with the Issuer and certain other holders of (x) the Issuer’s secured convertible notes and/or (y) DIP Commitments (as defined in the Support Agreement) or loans under the DIP Facility (the “Consenting Creditors”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Consenting Creditors agreed, for the duration of the Support Period (as defined in the Support Agreement), to vote in favor a joint plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) of the Debtors under the Bankruptcy Code and not to take certain other actions, including those that would reasonably be expected to prevent, interfere with, delay or impede the consummation of the Plan and the restructuring contemplated by the Support Agreement.

The Support Agreement, together with the restructuring term sheet included therein, and Plan contemplate, among other things:

•

At emergence, (i) the refinancing of the DIP Facility with third-party exit financing for an amount not to exceed the sum of (a) 112% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the DIP Facility on the Effective Date (as defined in the Support Agreement), and (b) interest, fees, and other amounts arising thereunder or payable pursuant thereto (and in any event an amount sufficient to repay the DIP Facility in full, in cash) or (ii) the rolling of the DIP Facility into 4-year exit term loan facility on the same terms and the issuance of warrants to the DIP Lenders for up to 30% of the New Common Shares (as defined in the Support Agreement), subject to dilution by the Management Incentive Plan (as defined in the Support Agreement) and warrants issued to holders of general unsecured claims and existing equityholders.

•

The equitization of the Issuer’s secured convertible notes in exchange for 97% of the New Common Shares, subject to dilution by the Management Incentive Plan, the warrants issued in connection with the rolling of the DIP Facility and the warrants issued to holders of general unsecured claims and existing equityholders;

•

The issuance of up to $75 million in New Second Lien Notes (as defined in the Support Agreement) to certain holders of the Issuer’s secured convertible notes at their option;

•

The issuance of Miner Equipment Takeback Debt (as defined in the Support Agreement) to holders of Miner Equipment Financing Claims (as defined in the Support Agreement), for the secured portion of their claims;

•

The reinstatement of secured Non-Miner Financing Claims (as defined in the Support Agreement); and

•

recoveries to holders of General Unsecured Claims (as defined in the Support Agreement) and existing equity in the form of New Common Shares and warrants exercisable as certain enterprise values are achieved.

The Support Agreement also contemplates the following milestones with respect to the Chapter 11 Cases:

•

No later than 5 days after the Petition Date (as defined in the Support Agreement), the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Interim DIP Order;

•

No later than 35 days after the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Final DIP Order;

•

No later than 75 days after the Petition Date, the Issuer shall have filed with the Bankruptcy Court the Plan and the Disclosure Statement (as defined in the Support Agreement);

•

No later than 150 days after the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered the Confirmation Order (as defined in the Support Agreement), subject to extension in accordance with the Support Agreement; and

•

No later than 165 days after the Petition Date (subject to extension in accordance with the Support Agreement), the Plan Effective Date (as defined in the Support Agreement) shall have occurred.

During the Support Period, the Consenting Creditors, including certain of the Gullane Entities, have agreed not to Transfer (as defined in the Support Agreement), directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, any of their Claims (as defined in the Support Agreement), including granting any proxies, depositing any Claims into a voting trust or entering into a voting agreement with respect to any such Claims, unless the transferee thereof is a Consenting Creditor or, prior to such Transfer, the transferee agrees to become a Consenting Creditor by entering into a joinder to the Support Agreement.

Under the terms of the Support Agreement, the Requisite Consenting Creditors (as defined in the Support Agreement) have the right to designate four out of the five members of the initial board of directors of the Reorganized Debtors (as defined in the Support Agreement). In addition, the Support Agreement contemplates that the Reorganized Debtors will enter into one or more registration rights agreements with the holders of (i) Prepetition Secured Convertible Notes Claims (as defined in the Support Agreement) who receive New Common Shares, and (ii) holders of DIP Claims (as defined in the Support Agreement) who receive DIP Warrants (as defined in the Support Agreement), which registration rights agreements shall include (a) demand registration rights for a holder or holders who hold an aggregate of more than 5% of the equity of the Reorganized Debtors (on a diluted basis treating the DIP Warrants as if exercised), such demand to be exercisable up to two times per year, subject to minimum expected proceeds of $5 million and (b) piggyback registration rights for all holders of New Common Stock or DIP Warrants that are party to the registration rights agreement. Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Reorganized Debtors have agreed to take the steps necessary to continue to be a public company that is listed on the Nasdaq or the NYSE on or as soon as reasonable practicable after the Effective Date.

The foregoing description of the Support Agreement and the transactions and documents contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Support Agreement as filed as Exhibit 2 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

As a result of the foregoing, the Gullane Entities may be deemed to have formed a “group,” as such term is used in Regulation 13D under the Act among themselves and with the other parties to the Support Agreement and the DIP Credit Agreement who beneficially own shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock. Each Gullane Entity disclaims any membership or participation in a “group” with such other parties to the Support Agreement and the DIP Credit Agreement or their affiliates and further disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by any such parties or their affiliates, including approximately 4.7 million shares of Common Stock believed to be beneficially owned by funds and accounts managed or advised by BlackRock, Inc. or its affiliates on the date hereof.

Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D and in the Support Agreement, the activities described herein will not restrict the Gullane Entities’ exercise of investment or voting power with respect to the Common Stock to which this Schedule 13D relates. Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, no Gullane Entity has any present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in Item 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D. Each of the Gullane Entities may evaluate on a continuing basis its investment in the Issuer and each Gullane Entity expects that it may, subject to the terms of the Support Agreement where applicable, from time to time acquire or dispose of Common Stock or other securities of the Issuer from time to time. Any acquisitions or dispositions will depend upon (i) the price and availability of the Issuer’s securities; (ii) subsequent developments concerning the Issuer’s business and prospects and the industry in which the Issuer operates; (iii) the Gullane Entities’ general investment policies; (iv) other investment and business opportunities available to the Gullane Entities; (v) general market and economic conditions; (vi) tax considerations; and (vii) such other factors as the Gullane Entities may consider relevant. Any such acquisitions or dispositions may be made, subject to applicable law, in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) and (b) The responses of each Gullane Entity to Rows (7) through (11), and (13) of the cover page of this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference; provided, however, that:

(v) all of the shares beneficially owned by Gullane Capital Partners LLC consists of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of secured convertible notes.

In addition, pursuant to Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, the Gullane Entities and the other parties to the Support Agreement and/or the DIP Credit Agreement who beneficially own shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock may, on the basis of the facts described elsewhere in this Schedule 13D, be considered to be a “group.” Each Gullane Entity, together with Gullane Capital and Mr. Miller, disclaims any membership or participation in a “group” with such other parties to the Support Agreement and/or the DIP Credit Agreement or their affiliates and further disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such parties or their affiliates, including approximately 4.7 million shares of Common Stock believed to be beneficially owned by funds and accounts managed or advised by BlackRock, Inc. or its affiliates on the date hereof.

(d) Except for Mr. Miller, in his capacity as manager of Gullane Capital, the manager of each Gullane Entity, no other person is known by the Gullane Entities to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any Common Stock that may be beneficially owned by the Gullane Entities.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

The information set forth in Item 4 is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

In August 2021, each of Gullane Digital Asset Partners, LLC, Gullane Digital Asset Partners QP, LLC and Gullane Capital Partners LLC (collectively, the “Gullane Note Holders”) entered into a secured convertible note purchase agreement with the Issuer and the other investors thereunder pursuant to which the Issuer issued $299.8 million of convertible notes in August through November 2021, including approximately $57 million to such Gullane Note Holders, which notes became secured notes upon consummation of the business combination transaction in January 2022.

The secured convertible notes have a minimum payoff based on the face value plus accrued interest and are secured by a lien on the same collateral securing the $215 million of secured convertible notes issued by the Issuer in April 2021. The secured convertible notes have a maturity date of April 2025 and bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, of which 4% is payable in cash and 6% is payable in kind. The convertible notes are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price equal to $8.00 per share.

As of December 20, 2022, after giving effect to the receipt by the Gullane Note Holders of the interest payable in kind on such secured convertible notes through such date, the Gullane Note Holders held approximately $61.8 million in aggregate principal amount of secured convertible notes. The foregoing description of the secured convertible note purchase agreement in this Item 6 do not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, as amended, and the form of Convertible Promissory Note as filed as Exhibits 3 through 5 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D and in the Support Agreement, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between the Gullane Entities with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any securities of the Issuer, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
