Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

 On December 12, 2023, Bit Digital, Inc. (the “Company”), through its subsidiaries, Bit Digital USA, Inc. and Bit Digital Iceland ehf, entered into an Omnibus Amendment to and Novation of Master Services Agreement and Purchase Order (the “Novation Agreement”) to amend and novate that certain Master Services Agreement and Purchase Order previously entered on November 9, 2023 (the “MSA”) with its first customer (the “Initial Customer”) and a guarantor of the Initial Customer (the “Guarantor”).

 

Pursuant to the Novation Agreement, the Company has agreed to increase the scope of the initial MSA contract with the Initial Customer. Under the terms of the MSA, as amended and novated by the Novation Agreement, the Company will supply the Initial Customer with computational power from an additional 512 graphic processing units (“GPUs”) (in addition to the initial GPUs, for a total of 2,048 GPUs) for a period of three years.

 

The total contract value with the Initial Customer for the aggregated 2,048 GPUs is estimated to be worth more than $50 million of annualized revenue to the Company.

 

To fulfill the MSA contract, the Company has placed a purchase order for 64 additional servers manufactured by Super Micro Computer, Inc., an authorized Nvidia OEM, that are equipped with 512 Nvidia HGX H100 GPUs along with related equipment, which were delivered to the Company during January 2024. The servers are being deployed in Iceland at the datacenter where the Company’s existing AI servers are located. As of the date of this report, 192 AI servers have been successfully installed at the datacenter in Iceland.

 

Additionally, the Company has executed a sale-leaseback agreement with a third party. Under the agreement, the Company has agreed to sell the third party 96 AI servers, representing 768 GPUs, and lease them back for a period of three years. The lease rate represents a percentage of the total contracted rate for those GPUs and the Company will also pass through pro-rated operational expenses for those units to the third party.

 

The foregoing summaries of the Novation Agreement, MSA and related agreements do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, such documents attached as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 to this Report on Form 6-K, which are incorporated herein by reference.
