On May 4, Digi Power X Inc. (the “Company”)
entered into a Data Center Colocation and Master Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cerebras Systems Inc. (“Cerebras”)
to deploy at total of approximately 40 megawatts (“MW”) for AI computing at the Company’s AI data center campus in Columbiana,
Alabama (the “Facility”). Pursuant to the Agreement, Cerebras will hold an exclusive license to access the data center for
the duration of the Agreement. The Agreement has an initial term of ten (10) years (the “Initial Term”) from the later of
the two phase commencement dates (as described below). Additionally, the Agreement grants Cerebras the right to extend the Initial Term
for one or more additional periods of one (1), three (3), five (5), or seven (7) years (each, an “Extension”).
Pursuant to the Agreement, the total contract
value to the Company is approximately $1.1 billion in the initial term of the contract, with a total potential contract value to the Company
of approximately $2.5 billion, assuming one seven (7)-year Extension, in each case subject to the Company meeting its obligations under
the agreement. The Agreement provides for certain one-time payments by Cerebras in connection with Phase 1 and Phase 2 construction, as
well as a monthly colocation fee to paid by Cerebras for Phase 1 and Phase 2 (a portion of which is to be prepaid), based upon the number
of kilowatts delivered.
The Agreement requires the Company to construct,
equip, and commission two phases of the colocation space at the Facility, with Phase 1 (15 MW) ready-for-service date targeted at December
15, 2026 and with full deployment in Phase 2 (40 MW) targeted by the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2027. The additional 25 MW of
load capacity in Phase 2 is conditioned on the Company securing adequate financing for Phase 2 operations.
The Agreement also contains various other customary
terms and conditions, including representations and warranties, service and service credit, penalty, termination, indemnification, confidentiality,
and limitation of liability provisions.

DIGI
POWER X INC.
Nasdaq: DGXX | Cboe Canada: DGX
A Vertically
Integrated AI Infrastructure Company
Digi Power X Signs AI Colocation Agreement with
Leading AI Compute Company for 40 MW Data Center in Columbiana, Alabama
MIAMI, FL – May 5, 2026 – Digi
Power X Inc. (Nasdaq: DGXX / Cboe Canada: DGX) (the “Company” or “Digi Power X”), an AI data center infrastructure
operator, today announced the execution of a Master Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cerebras Systems (the “Customer”)
for the colocation of a purpose-built, 40 megawatt (“MW”) AI data center campus located in Columbiana, Alabama (the “Facility”).
The initial 10-year term is valued at approximately
$1.1 billion, with total potential contract value of up to $2.5 billion inclusive of renewal terms – underpinned by a structure
that provides Digi Power X with long-term revenue visibility, and Cerebras with guaranteed data center capacity, from the first day of
service.
Digi Power X will develop and deliver the Facility
in two phases: Phase 1 comprising 15 MW of IT load, followed by Phase 2 delivering an incremental 25 MW for a combined total of 40 MW.
The Facility will be purpose-built to Tier III infrastructure standards optimized for the high-density thermal requirements of next-generation
AI accelerator hardware.
This Agreement reflects the deep commitment that
both companies are making to the Columbiana campus – a facility designed from the ground up around the power density and reliability
demands of frontier AI compute.
“This agreement is transformational for
Digi Power X. Signing a $1.1 billion anchor contract with a premier AI compute company is validation of everything we have built –
our team, our sites, our infrastructure capabilities, and our vision for what a next-generation data center operator looks like. We are
no longer building toward the top tier of this industry. We are in it.”
— Michel
Amar, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, Digi Power X Inc.

Immediate Construction & Accelerated Deployment
Digi Power X will commence construction immediately
on Phase 1, reflecting the Company’s readiness across power, site development and long-lead equipment procurement.
| Initial Deployment | |
40MW critical IT load |
| Construction Start | |
Immediate |
| Phase 1 Ready-for-Service | |
Targeted December 15, 2026 |
| Full Deployment | |
Targeted by end of Q1 2027 |
The Columbiana, Alabama campus was selected for
its access to robust power infrastructure, a favorable regulatory environment, and proximity to major fiber corridors serving the southeastern
United States. Digi Power X owns the underlying real property, providing a balance-sheet-backed development platform that differentiates
the Company from lease-dependent competitors.
The Company has already completed construction
of the dedicated on-site substation serving Phase 1, with grid interconnection finalized and a power delivery agreement in place with
Alabama Power – minimizing two of the most significant development risk factors typically associated with large-scale data center
projects and positioning the Columbiana campus for an accelerated construction timeline.
Digi Power X plans to commence site development
immediately and targets Phase 1 Ready-for-Service in December 2026, with Phase 2 delivery to follow. Phase 1 construction is being self-funded
by the Company, reflecting Digi Power X’s financial commitment to the Columbiana campus and its confidence in the long-term value
of this partnership.
“This
deal is a statement. Closing a contract of this magnitude with one of the prominent emerging companies of the AI era signals Digi Power
X is a serious player operating at the highest level. This is the kind of landmark transaction that we believe will open the door to
additional sophisticated tenants, lenders, and partners.”
— Alec
Amar, President, Digi Power X Inc.
|
“The
buildout of high-density AI infrastructure is one of the defining challenges of our generation, on the scale of the rollout of 4G and
5G that transformed global connectivity. This agreement reflects Digi Power X’s vision, the strength of its team, and its ability
to execute as a foundational player. I’m proud to be part of what Digi Power X is building.”
— Hans
Vestberg, Senior Advisor, Digi Power X Inc.; Former Chairman and CEO, Verizon Communications; Member, Board of Directors, BlackRock

Strategic Significance
The Agreement is expected to be a core driver
of Digi Power X’s forward revenue growth.
| ● | Revenue commencement: Expected late 2026. |
| ● | Full revenue ramp: Upon completion of full deployment, targeted in Q1 2027. |
| ● | Upside: Customer expansion option for an additional $1.4 billion. |
