Core Scientific, Inc. (NASDAQ:CORZ) ("Core Scientific" or the "Company"), a leader in digital infrastructure for high-density colocation, today announced that it closed an additional $500 million commitment provided by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. under the accordion feature of the Company's previously announced 364-day credit facility (the "Facility"). This brings total funded commitments under the Facility to $1.0 billion, including the previously announced $500 million commitment from Morgan Stanley. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at a rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 250 basis points (2.50%).

"We are proud to have commitments from Morgan Stanley and J.P. Morgan under this Facility," said Adam Sullivan, Chief Executive Officer of Core Scientific. "With $1 billion of total financing capacity now available, we are well positioned to execute on our development and go-to-market strategy, deploying capital to accelerate infrastructure delivery and meet the strong demand environment."

The Company expects to use proceeds from borrowings under the Facility for general corporate purposes related to the development of data center assets, including without limitation equipment purchase costs, pre-development costs, real property acquisition and costs related to the acquisition of, and entrance into, agreements for the procurement of additional energy for data centers.

About Core Scientific, Inc.

We intend to repurpose our remaining facilities currently used in our digital asset mining businesses to support our high-density colocation services business as circumstances allow and in a manner designed to retain access to electrical power under our control, maximize the value of our digital asset mining equipment to third parties and fulfill our existing obligations to suppliers and customers.
