Applied Digital Corp. 8-K Mar 10, 2026 Event Analysis

Item 1.01 · Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

• $2.15B senior secured notes priced at 98% of par, coupon 6.750%, maturing March 15, 2031 — one of APLD's largest capital raises
• Proceeds fund 200MW critical IT load development at Polaris Forge 2 (Harwood, ND), currently leased to Oracle — directly tied to AI data center buildout
• Semi-annual amortization begins after all datacenter leases reach commencement date; callable at make-whole before March 2028, par-plus schedule thereafter
• Change of control triggers mandatory repurchase at 101% of principal — standard bondholder protection but limits M&A flexibility
• Parent Applied Digital provides completion guarantee — on the hook for cost overruns if note proceeds and prior equity contributions fall short of finishing construction

Item 5.02 · Departure/Election of Directors or Officers

• CFO Saidal Mohmand awarded $750,000 special cash bonus, approved March 6, 2026
• Bonus tied specifically to completing financings for two data center campuses: Polaris Forge 1 (Ellendale, ND) and Polaris Forge 2 (Harwood, ND)
• Signals meaningful capital-raise complexity behind APLD's North Dakota build-out, warranting executive-level recognition
