Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 13, 2026) - Carrier Connect Data Solutions Inc. (TSXV: CCDS) (OTCQB: CCDSF) (WKN: A40XB1) (the "Company" or "Carrier"), a data center company on a mission to roll up Tier II/III data centers internationally that specialize in delivering co-location, is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent ("LOI") pursuant to which Carrier would place up to 25 megawatts of AI computing demand for a single customer ("Customer"), who is under a non-disclosure agreement ("NDA") at this time, within Carrier's global co-location data center network, within 12 months.

The LOI contains indicative base pricing, but is subject to negotiated location specific pricing, with 3 months of retained deposit payable upon any Purchase Order signing. At full scale, the deployment of 25MW could generate CAD ~$95 million in Annual Recurring Revenue for Carrier.

As Purchase Orders are executed for specific deployments in connection with the LOI, the Company will issue a more comprehensive news release disclosing further details of the proposed transaction. There is no assurance that Purchase Orders will be successfully negotiated or executed by the parties.
