Item 8.01 Other Events.
Applied Digital Extends Agreement with U.S. Hyperscaler
On July 26, 2024, Applied Digital Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an agreement extending the exclusivity period under the previously announced letter of intent with the U.S. based hyperscaler for leasing the Company's Ellendale, North Dakota campus, which is being built to support 400 megawatts of critical IT load. The Company and the hyperscaler have been engaged in due diligence and negotiations of the lease documentation. The extended exclusivity period is intended to afford the parties sufficient time to complete their negotiations and documentation. However, no assurance can be given that the parties will actually consummate the lease documentation.
The Company continues construction on the first 100 megawatt building on the Ellendale, North Dakota campus, and to focus on the growth of the Company’s cloud business. As previously announced, the Company continues to opportunistically explore various financing options for these activities including negotiating term sheets and letters of intent with various lenders and investors. The Company may be engaged in a multitude of conversations and negotiations with various financing sources at any point in time, and such discussions may be in varying stages of negotiation at any point in time. No assurance can be given that any of the financings analyzed by the Company will be on terms acceptable to the Company or will be completed at all.
