The works principally comprise the civil, structural, architectural and other non-mechanical and electrical construction components of the facility. The accepted contract amount is within the range of approximately US$40 million to US$50 million, inclusive of applicable Indonesian value-added tax, and the works are contemplated to be implemented in phases.</p>  <p align="justify">Separately, a subsidiary of the Company has entered into an equipment procurement contract with an independent supplier for the purchase of network infrastructure equipment and related components. The contract has an aggregate value of approximately US$10.1 million.</p>  <p align="justify">The same subsidiary has also entered into a five-year on-site technical service and equipment maintenance agreement with an independent service provider in relation to certain computing equipment. The arrangement covers on-site technical support, routine inspections, incident response, coordination of manufacturer warranty resources and subsequent third-party equipment maintenance services. The fixed on-site personnel service fees amount to approximately US$1.0 million over the five-year service period, with additional maintenance fees for the fourth and fifth years to be determined based on the actual number of devices maintained.</p>  <p align="justify">These agreements are intended to support different elements of the Company’s planned AI computing infrastructure deployment in Indonesia, including physical data center construction, network infrastructure, technical support and equipment maintenance. They form part of the Company’s strategic initiative to expand into AI computing infrastructure and cloud-based computing services while continuing to operate its existing whisky import and distribution business.</p>  <p align="justify">The agreements are infrastructure construction, procurement and service arrangements and are not customer revenue contracts. They do not, by themselves, guarantee that the relevant data center facilities will be completed, that the equipment will be delivered or successfully deployed, that the contemplated computing capacity will become operational or be fully utilized, that customers will use the Company’s planned AI computing services, or that the Company will generate revenue, profitability or positive cash flow from the projects.</p>  <p align="justify"><b>Management Commentary</b></p>  <p align="justify">"These agreements advance several of the principal workstreams required for our planned AI computing infrastructure deployment in Indonesia, including construction, network infrastructure and ongoing technical support," said Mr. TSAI Yi-Yang, CEO of Agencia. "Our focus remains on disciplined execution, including funding, construction and procurement scheduling, equipment delivery, operational readiness, cost management and risk control."</p>  <p align="justify">Management believes that the Company’s planned infrastructure deployment, if successfully implemented, may provide an opportunity to participate in demand for AI computing capacity in Southeast Asia. However, the Company’s AI computing infrastructure strategy remains subject to significant business, operational, financing, construction, supply chain, technology, regulatory, customer demand and execution risks.</p>  <p align="justify"><b>About Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd</b></p>  <p align="justify">Agencia Comercial Spirits Ltd is a Taiwan-based importer and distributor of whisky products, including bottled and cask whiskies, in Taiwan and select international markets. The Company operates through three business segments: procurement and distribution of bottled whisky; procurement and distribution of raw cask whisky; and cask-to-bottle and distribution services, including brand-authorized bottling, packaging and sales.</p>  <p align="justify">The AI computing infrastructure and services described in this press release represent a strategic expansion beyond the Company’s historical whisky business and remain subject to significant risks and uncertainties.</p>  <p align="justify"><b>Forward-Looking Statements</b></p>  <p align="justify">This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws.

The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
