Euro Notes Offering

On October 6, 2026, Digital Euro Finco, LLC, a wholly owned indirect finance subsidiary of the operating partnership, commenced an offering of Euro-denominated Guaranteed Notes (the “Euro Notes”). The Euro Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Digital Euro Finco, LLC and will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Digital Realty Trust, Inc. and the operating partnership. Consummation of the offering is subject to market and other conditions. The Euro Notes will be offered only outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Euro Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to United States persons (within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act) absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. The final terms of the Euro Notes will be determined at the time of pricing.

The company intends to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from the offering of the Euro Notes to finance or refinance, in part or in full, new and/or existing renewable energy, energy efficiency, pollution prevention and control, environmentally sustainable management of living natural resources and land use, terrestrial and aquatic biodiversity, clean transportation, sustainable water and wastewater management, climate change adaptation and green building projects, including the development and redevelopment of such projects (collectively, “Eligible Green Projects”).

Pending the allocation of the net proceeds of the Euro Notes to Eligible Green Projects, all or a portion of an amount equal to the net proceeds from the Euro Notes may be used to temporarily repay borrowings outstanding under the operating partnership’s global revolving credit facilities, acquire additional properties or businesses, fund development opportunities, invest in interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities which are consistent with Digital Realty Trust, Inc.’s intention to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and to provide for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including potentially for the repayment of other debt, or the redemption, repurchase, repayment or retirement of outstanding equity or debt securities, or a combination of the foregoing.

Recent Developments—Financings

On September 28, 2026, Digital Constellation B.V., a wholly owned indirect finance subsidiary of the operating partnership, priced an offering of CHF225.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.6803% Guaranteed Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”), CHF185.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.0600% Guaranteed Notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) and CHF100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.4150% Guaranteed Notes due 2036 (the “2036 Notes” and, together with the 2029 Notes and the 2032 Notes, the “Swiss Franc Notes”), which are expected to be issued on October 6, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The Swiss Franc Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Digital Constellation B.V. and will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the operating partnership and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V., an indirect wholly owned holding and finance subsidiary of the operating partnership that holds the Interxion business. The Swiss Franc Notes are being sold outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and in Switzerland pursuant to a public offering made in reliance on an exemption from the obligation to publish a prospectus approved by a Swiss review body pursuant to article 51(2) of the Swiss Financial Services Act and article 60 of the Swiss Financial Services Ordinance.

The Swiss Franc Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to United States persons (within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act) absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.

Net proceeds from the offering of the Swiss Franc Notes are expected to be approximately CHF508.4 million after deducting the managers’ commissions and certain offering expenses. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Swiss Franc Notes to temporarily repay borrowings outstanding under the operating partnership’s global revolving credit facilities, acquire additional properties or businesses, fund development opportunities, invest in interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities which are consistent with Digital Realty Trust, Inc.’s intention to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and to provide for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including potentially for the repayment of other debt, or the redemption, repurchase, repayment or retirement of outstanding equity or debt securities, or a combination of the foregoing.
