    "excerpts": "On June 8, 2026, we arranged for Apollo (\"investor partner\") to take on certain agreements to purchase AI racks based on custom AI accelerators designed by us and the related lease agreements with a customer that enable access to compute capacity. In connection with the arrangement, we entered into a backstop agreement with the investor partner for the customer’s lease obligations over 5-year terms. The backstop will increase over time as the AI racks are deployed and decrease as the customer makes payments on its lease obligations, with a maximum exposure of $29 billion.",
