Datacenter Lease

As previously disclosed, in the first fiscal quarter of 2025, CoreWeave, Inc. (“CoreWeave”) exercised its option for an additional 150MW of hosting capacity at Applied Digital Corporation’s (the “Company”) 400 MW Ellendale, North Dakota datacenter campus (“Polaris Forge 1”). Accordingly, on August 28, 2025, APLD ELN-02 C LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, and CoreWeave entered into a third datacenter lease (the “Building 4 Lease”) for the full capacity of Building 4 at Polaris Forge 1 (“Building 4”), a 150MW data center to be constructed by the Company. The Building 4 Lease brings the total capacity leased by CoreWeave at Polaris Forge 1 to 400MW. Building 4 is currently in the design phase and is expected to be service-ready in mid 2027.

The Building 4 Lease has substantially the same terms and conditions as the two other datacenter leases entered into by and between the Company and CoreWeave at Polaris Forge 1, as described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 2, 2025 and incorporated by reference herein. The total contract value for the initial approximately fifteen (15)-year term of the Building 4 Lease is expected to be approximately $4.0 billion. The Company has guaranteed the obligations of APLD ELN-02 C LLC under the Building 4 Lease.

The foregoing description of the Building 4 Lease does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Building 4 Lease, which will be filed as Exhibit 10.1 to an amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Warrants

On August 28, 2025, in connection with the entry into the Building 4 Lease, the Company issued to CoreWeave a warrant (the “Building 4 Warrant”) to acquire up to 8,393,611 shares (the “Building 4 Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) at an exercise price of $10.75 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Building 4 Warrant. The Building 4 Warrant is on the same Form of Warrant as the initial warrant issued to CoreWeave on May 28, 2025, in connection with the datacenter leases entered into for Building 2 and Building 3. The Building 4 Warrant is subject to certain limitations in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rules.

The foregoing description of the Building 4 Warrant does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Warrant, filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on June 2, 2025 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information set forth in “Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement” relating to the issuance of the Building 4 Warrant and the underlying Building 4 Warrant Shares is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

The Building 4 Warrant has not been, and the Building 4 Warrant Shares when issued will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or under any state securities law and were offered and issued, as applicable, in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act set forth in Section 4(a)(2) thereof. The Company agreed to file a resale registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the Building 4 Warrant Shares pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated May 28, 2025, between the Company and CoreWeave, filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on June 2, 2025, and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On August 28, 2025, the Company issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing the execution of the Building 4 Lease and issuance of the Building 4 Warrant. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
