In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule III, properties and accumulated depreciation. These consolidated and combined financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated and combined financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the consolidated results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 and for the period from November 3, 2004 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2004, the combined results of operations of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. Predecessor, for the period from January 1, 2004 through November 2, 2004, and the year ended December 31, 2003, the consolidated cash flows of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. and subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2005, and the consolidated and combined cash flows of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. and subsidiaries and Digital Realty Trust, Inc. Predecessor for the year ended December 31, 2004, and the combined cash flows of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. Predecessor for the year ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule III, properties and accumulated depreciation, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Description of Business
Digital Realty Trust, Inc. through its controlling interest in Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (the Operating Partnership) and the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership (collectively, “we” or the Company) is engaged in the business of owning, acquiring, repositioning and managing technology-related real estate. As of December 31, 2005 our portfolio consists of 43 properties, including 7979 East Tufts Avenue, a property which we classified as held for sale in June 2006 and sold on July 12, 2006; 40 are located throughout the United States and three are located in Europe. Our properties are diversified in major markets where corporate data center and technology tenants are concentrated, including the Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Silicon Valley metropolitan areas. The portfolio consists of Internet gateway properties, data center properties, technology manufacturing properties and regional or national headquarters of technology companies.
The Operating Partnership was formed on July 21, 2004 in anticipation of our initial public offering (IPO). Effective as of the completion of our IPO on November 3, 2004, including exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, we, as sole general partner, owned a 40.5% common interest. As a result of our February 2005 and July 2005 stock offerings, as of December 31, 2005, we own a 46.4% common interest and a 100% preferred interest in the Operating Partnership. We have control over the Operating Partnership. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership do not have rights to replace the general partner or approve the sale or refinancing of the Operating Partnership’s assets, although they do have certain protective rights.
We completed our IPO on November 3, 2004 and commenced operations on that date. The IPO resulted in the sale of 20,000,000 shares of common stock at a price per share of $12.00, generating gross proceeds to us of $240.0 million. Our aggregate proceeds, net of underwriters’ discounts, commissions and financial advisory fees and other offering costs were approximately $214.9 million. On November 30, 2004, an additional 1,421,300 shares of common stock were sold at $12.00 per share as a result of the underwriters’ exercising their over-allotment option. This resulted in additional net proceeds of approximately $15.9 million to us.
On February 9, 2005, we completed the offering of 4.14 million shares of 8.50% Series A cumulative redeemable preferred stock (liquidation preference $25.00 per share) for total net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and other offering costs, of $99.3 million, including the proceeds from the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The net proceeds from this offering were used to reduce borrowings under our unsecured credit facility, acquire properties and for investment and general corporate purposes.
On July 26, 2005, we completed the offering of 2.53 million shares of 7.875% Series B cumulative redeemable preferred stock (liquidation preference $25.00 per share) for total net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and other offering costs, of $60.5 million, including the proceeds from the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. On July 26, 2005 we also completed the offering of 5.87 million shares of common stock for total net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and other offering costs, of $97.8 million, including the proceeds from the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The net proceeds from these offerings were used to reduce borrowings under our unsecured credit facility, acquire properties and for investment and general corporate purposes.
We continue to operate and expand the business of our predecessor (the Predecessor). The Predecessor is not a legal entity; rather it is a combination of certain of the real estate subsidiaries of Global Innovation Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (GI Partners) contributed to us in connection with the IPO, along with an allocation of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of GI Partners related to the real estate owned by such subsidiaries.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Beginning November 3, 2004 the financial statements presented are our consolidated financial statements. The financial statements presented for periods prior to November 3, 2004 are the combined financial statements of the Predecessor.
Pursuant to a contribution agreement among GI Partners, the owner of the Predecessor and the Operating Partnership, certain of GI Partners’ properties in exchange for limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (Units) and the assumption of debt and other specified liabilities. Additionally, pursuant to contribution agreements between the Operating Partnership and third parties, which were also executed in July 2004, the Operating Partnership received contributions of interests in certain additional real estate properties in exchange for Units and the assumption of specified liabilities.
We purchased a portion of the Units that were issued to GI Partners (which Units were subsequently allocated out to certain members of GI Partners) immediately following the completion of the IPO and upon exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, the aggregate purchase price of which was $91.9 million. The purchase price was equal to the value of the Operating Partnership units based on the IPO price of our stock, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and financial advisory fees.
We have operated in a manner that we believe has enabled us to qualify and have elected to be treated, as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (the Code) as amended.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Principles of Consolidation and Combination and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the Operating Partnership, the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership and two consolidated joint ventures. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Property interests contributed to the Operating Partnership by GI Partners in exchange for Units have been accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. Accordingly, the contributed assets and assumed liabilities were recorded at the Predecessor’s historical cost basis. Property interests acquired from third parties for cash or Units are accounted for using purchase accounting.
The accompanying combined financial statements of the Predecessor include the wholly owned real estate subsidiaries and two majority-owned real estate joint ventures that GI Partners contributed to the Operating Partnership on October 27, 2004 in connection with the IPO. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The interests of the joint venture partners, all of whom are third parties, are reflected in minority interests in the accompanying combined financial statements.
The accompanying financial statements of the Predecessor do not include the real estate subsidiaries for a property owned by GI Partners that is subject to a right of first offer agreement, whereby the Operating Partnership has the right to make the first offer to purchase this property if GI Partners decides to sell it, nor do the combined financial statements of the Predecessor include another right of first offer property that we acquired from GI Partners during 2005. The accompanying combined financial statements of the Predecessor also do not include any of GI Partners’ investments in privately held companies, which GI Partners did not contribute to the Operating Partnership.
11
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. AND
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. PREDECESSOR
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
The accompanying combined statements of the Predecessor include an allocation of GI Partners’ line of credit to the extent that such borrowings and the interest expense relate to acquisitions of the real estate owned by the subsidiaries and joint ventures that GI Partners contributed to the Operating Partnership. Additionally, the accompanying combined financial statements of the Predecessor include an allocation of asset management fees to a related party incurred by GI Partners along with an allocation of the liability for any such fees that were unpaid as of December 31, 2003 and an allocation of GI Partners’ general and administrative expenses. Although neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership were parties to the agreement requiring the payment of the asset management fees, an allocation of such fees has been included in the accompanying combined financial statements since such fees were essentially the Company Predecessor’s historical general and administrative expense. The Predecessor did not directly incur personnel costs, home office space rent or other general and administrative expenses that subsequent to the completion of the IPO are incurred directly by the Company and the Operating Partnership. These types of expenses were historically incurred by the asset manager and were passed through to GI Partners via the asset management fee.
(b) Cash Equivalents
For purpose of the consolidated and combined statements of cash flows, the Company considers short-term investments with maturities of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, cash equivalents consist of investments in a money market fund.
(c) Investments in Real Estate
Investments in real estate are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows:
| | |
Acquired ground leases | | Terms of the related ground leases |
Buildings and improvements | | 5-39 years |
Tenant improvements | | Shorter of the useful lives or the terms of the related leases |
Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life, increase capacity, or improve the efficiency of the asset. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
(d) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We assess whether there has been impairment in the value of our long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the future net cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Management believes no impairment in the net carrying value of the investments in real estate has occurred.
(e) Purchase Accounting for Acquisition of Investments in Real Estate
Purchase accounting is applied to the assets and liabilities related to all real estate investments acquired from third parties. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141,Business Combinations,the fair value of the real estate acquired is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting
12
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. AND
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. PREDECESSOR
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
primarily of land, building and tenant improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, other value of in-place leases, value of tenant relationships and acquired ground leases, based in each case on their fair values. Loan premiums, in the case of above market rate loans, or loan discounts, in the case of below market loans, are recorded based on the fair value of any loans assumed in connection with acquiring the real estate.
The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property are determined based on comparable land sales for land and replacement costs adjusted for physical and market obsolescence for the improvements. The fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property are also determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land, building and tenant improvements based on management’s determination of the relative fair values of these assets. Management determines the as-if-vacant fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related costs.
In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market in–place lease values are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease and, for below-market leases, over a period equal to the initial term plus any below market fixed rate renewal periods. The leases do not currently include any below market fixed rate renewal periods. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values, also referred to as acquired lease obligations, are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial terms of the respective leases and any below market fixed rate renewal periods.
13
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. AND
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. PREDECESSOR
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
In addition to the intangible value for above market leases and the intangible negative value for below market leases, there is intangible value related to having tenants leasing space in the purchased property, which is referred to as in-place lease value and tenant relationship value. Such value results primarily from the buyer of a leased property avoiding the costs associated with leasing the property and also avoiding rent losses and unreimbursed operating expenses during the lease up period. The estimated avoided costs and avoided revenue losses are calculated and this aggregate value is allocated between in-place lease value and tenant relationships based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease; however, the value of tenant relationships has not been separated from in-place lease value for the Company’s real estate because such value and its consequence to amortization expense is immaterial for these particular acquisitions. Should future acquisitions of properties result in allocating material amounts to the value of tenant relationships, an amount would be separately allocated and amortized over the estimated life of the relationship. The value of in-place leases exclusive of the value of above-market in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be written off. The estimated future amortization of intangible assets and liabilities (assuming no early termination of leases acquired) at December 31, 2005 is as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | Acquired above market lease value | | Acquired in place lease value | | Acquired below market lease value | |
2006 | | $ | 6,742 | | $ | 28,621 | | $ | (9,417 | ) |
2007 | | | 6,450 | | | 27,724 | | | (9,011 | ) |
2008 | | | 6,450 | | | 26,912 | | | (8,693 | ) |
2009 | | | 6,025 | | | 25,656 | | | (7,555 | ) |
2010 | | | 5,023 | | | 23,716 | | | (5,953 | ) |
Thereafter | | | 17,547 | | | 61,822 | | | (26,548 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | $ | 48,237 | | $ | 194,451 | | $ | (67,177 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | |
(f) Capitalization of costs.
We capitalize pre-acquisition costs related to probable property acquisitions. We also capitalize direct and indirect costs related to construction and development, including property taxes, insurance and financing costs relating to space under development. Costs previously capitalized related to any property acquisitions no longer considered probable are written off. Interest capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2005 was $0.3 million and no interest was capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.
(g) Deferred Leasing Costs
Deferred leasing commissions and other direct and indirect costs associated with the acquisition of tenants are capitalized and amortized on a straight line basis over the terms of the related leases.
(h) Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries that own real estate investments outside the United States are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates as of the balance sheet dates. Income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the reporting period. Translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 included $0.6 million of foreign exchange transaction gains which was classified within other revenues in the accompanying consolidated and combined statement of operations. No such income was recognized in 2004 or 2003.

(i) Foreign Currency Forward Contract
The Company accounts for its foreign currency hedging activities in accordance with FASB Statement No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, and FASB Statement No. 52,Foreign Currency Translation.
Changes in the fair value of foreign currency forward contracts used as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation that are highly effective and qualify as foreign currency hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
(j) Deferred Financing Costs
Loan fees and costs are capitalized and amortized over the life of the related loans on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method. Such amortization is included as a component of interest expense.
(k) Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of deposits for real estate taxes and insurance and other amounts as required by our loan agreements including funds for leasing costs and improvements related to unoccupied space.
(l) Offering Costs
Underwriting commissions and other offering costs are reflected as a reduction in additional paid-in capital.
(m) Share Based Compensation
We account for share based compensation, including stock options and fully vested long-term incentive units granted in connection with the IPO, using the fair value method of accounting. The estimated fair value of each of the long-term incentive units granted in connection with our IPO was equal to the IPO price of our stock and such amount was recorded as an expense upon closing of the IPO since those long-term incentive units were fully vested as of the grant date. The estimated fair value of the stock options granted by us is being amortized over the vesting period of the stock options. The estimated fair value of the Class C Partnership units (discussed in note 8) is being amortized over the expected service period of five years.
(n) Derivative Financial Instruments
We record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation.
Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Our objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our cash flow hedging strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount. Through December 31, 2005, we used such derivatives to hedge the variable cash flows associated with floating rate debt.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transactions affect earnings as a component of interest expense, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings. For derivatives designated as net investment hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. As of December 31, 2005, no derivatives were designated as fair value hedges. Additionally, we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
(o) Income Taxes
We have elected to be treated and believe that we have operated in a manner that has enabled us to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (the Code) as amended. As a REIT, we generally are not required to pay federal corporate income taxes on our taxable income to the extent it is currently distributed to our stockholders.
However, qualification and taxation as a REIT depends upon our ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code including tests related to annual operating results, asset composition, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that we will be organized or be able to operate in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.
We have elected to treat two of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (each, a TRS). In general, a TRS may perform non-customary services for tenants, hold assets that we cannot hold directly and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate related business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the provision to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated). Our TRS’s are subject to corporate federal and state income taxes based on their taxable income. These rates are generally those rates which are charged for regular corporate entities. Income taxes are recorded using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is recorded against the combined federal and state net deferred taxes reducing the deferred tax asset to a net amount. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
As of December 31, 2005 the TRS’s have available net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Due to the uncertainty of future realizability, management has fully offset the net deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance.
To the extent that any foreign taxes are incurred by the subsidiaries invested in real estate located outside of the United States, a provision is made for such taxes.
No provision has been made in the combined financial statements of the Predecessor for U.S. income taxes, as any such taxes are the responsibility of GI Partners’ Members, as GI Partners is a limited liability company.

(p) Revenue Recognition
All leases are classified as operating leases and minimum rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases is included in deferred rent in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and contractually due but unpaid rents are included in accounts and other receivables.
Tenant reimbursements for real estate taxes, common area maintenance, and other recoverable costs are recognized in the period that the expenses are incurred. Lease termination fees, which are included in other income in the accompanying statements of operations, are recognized over the new remaining term of the lease, effective as of the date the lease modification is finalized, assuming collection is probable.
A provision for loss is made if the collection of the receivable balances related to contractual rent, rent recorded on a straight-line basis, tenant reimbursements and lease termination fees are considered to be doubtful.
(q) Asset Retirement Obligations
We record accruals for estimated retirement obligations, as required by SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” and FASB Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations” (FIN 47). The amount of asset retirement obligations relates primarily to estimated asbestos removal costs at the end of the economic life of properties that were built before 1984. At December 31, 2005 the amount included in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet was approximately $0.8 million and the equivalent asset is recorded at $0.7 million, net of amortization. No amount was recognized at December 31, 2004 for these conditional asset retirement obligations as we adopted FIN 47 in 2005.
(r) Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations represent a component of an entity that has either been disposed of or is classified as held for sale if both the operations and cash flows of the component have been or will be eliminated from ongoing operations of the entity as a result of the disposal transaction and the entity will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, provides that the assets and liabilities of the component of the entity that has been classified as discontinued operations be presented separately in the entity’s balance sheet. The results of operations of the component of the entity that has been classified as discontinued operations are also reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. A property is classified as held for sale when certain criteria, as outlined in SFAS No. 144, are met. At such time, depreciation is no longer recognized. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or their estimated fair value less the estimated costs to sell the assets. The results of operations of assets held for sale are reported as discontinued operations.
(s) Management’s Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates made.

| | | | | | | | | | |
In conjunction with the our formation, GI Partners received common units, in exchange for contributing ownership interests in the Predecessor’s properties to the Operating Partnership. Also in connection with acquiring real estate interests owned by third parties, the Operating Partnership issued common units to those sellers. Limited partners who acquired common units in the formation transactions have the right, commencing on or after January 3, 2006, to require the Operating Partnership to redeem part or all of their common units for cash based upon the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of our common stock at the time of the redemption. Alternatively, we may elect to acquire those common units in exchange for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, issuance of stock rights, specified extraordinary distributions and similar events. Pursuant to registration rights agreements we entered into with GI Partners and the other third party contributors, we are required to file a shelf registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of our common stock issuable upon redemption of the common units, and the resale of those shares of common stock by the holders. We made the initial filing of this registration statement in November 2005 and anticipate that this registration statement will be effective in the first quarter of 2006. Richard Magnuson, the Executive Chairman of our board of directors, Michael Foust, our Chief Executive Officer and a member of our board of directors, and Scott Peterson, our Senior Vice President, Acquisitions, are minority indirect investors in GI Partners.
Under the terms of certain third parties’ (the eXchange parties) contribution agreement signed in the final quarter of 2004, we have agreed to indemnify each eXchange party against adverse tax consequences in the event the Operating Partnership directly or indirectly, sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of (whether by way of merger, sale of assets or otherwise) in a taxable transaction any interest in 200 Paul Avenue 1-4 or 1100 Space Park Drive until the earlier of November 3, 2013 and the date on which these contributors hold less than 25% of the Units issued to them in the formation transactions consummated concurrently with the IPO.
Under the eXchange parties’ contribution agreement, we agreed to make $20.0 million of indebtedness available for guaranty by theses parties until the earlier of November 3, 2013 and the date on which these contributors or certain transferees hold less than 25% of the Units issued to them in the formation transactions consummated concurrently with the IPO.

4. Investment in Real Estate
We had the following investments in real estate at December 31, 2005 and 2004.
As of December 31, 2005, 39%, 15% and 12% of our net investments in real estate related to properties located in California, Texas and Illinois, respectively. As of December 31, 2004 50% and 21% of the carrying value of our properties related to properties located in California and Texas, respectively.
We have a 98% ownership interest in a joint venture that owns a property known as 7979 East Tufts Avenue. The minority partner’s 2% share is reflected in minority interests in the accompanying financial statements. Distributions from this joint venture are allocated based on the stated percentage interests until distributions exceed the amount required to return all capital plus a 15% return. After that, disproportionate allocations are made based on the formulas described in the joint venture agreement whereby the 2% joint venture partner is allocated a larger share.
At December 31, 2004, we owned a 75% tenancy-in-common interest in 3065 Gold Camp Drive and an unrelated third party held the remaining 25% of the tenancy-in-common. On January 7, 2005, the third-party owner of the remaining 25% interest in this property exercised its option to require us to purchase its 25% interest. The purchase price for the remaining 25% interest was $4.1 million. The acquisition was completed on January 21, 2005.
The Predecessor had a 90% ownership interest in 2323 Bryan Street, a property located in Texas. The minority partner’s 10% share is reflected in minority interests in the accompanying combined financial statements through November 3, 2004 when such interest was purchased by us upon completion of the IPO.

Borrowings under the amended unsecured revolving credit facility currently bear interest at a rate based on LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.250% to 1.625%, depending on our operating partnership’s overall leverage, which margin was 1.50% as of December 31, 2005. The amended unsecured revolving credit

facility matures in October 2008, subject to a one-year extension option. The amended unsecured revolving credit facility has a $150.0 million sub-facility for foreign exchange advances in Euros and British Sterling. As of December 31, 2005, approximately $181.0 million was drawn under this facility. The credit facility contains various restrictive covenants, including limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments or merge with another company, and requirements to maintain financial coverage ratios and maintain a pool of unencumbered assets. In addition except to enable us to maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we will not during any four consecutive fiscal quarters make distributions with respect to common stock or other equity interests in an aggregate amount in excess of 95% of Funds From Operations, as defined, for such period, subject to certain other adjustments.

7. Stockholders Equity
(a) Redeemable Preferred Stock
Underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering costs totaling approximately $7.0 million are reflected as a reduction to preferred stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
8.50% Series A Cumulative redeemable preferred stock
We currently have outstanding 4,140,000 shares of our 8.50% series A cumulative redeemable preferred Stock, or series A preferred stock. Dividends are cumulative on our series A preferred stock from the date of original issuance in the amount of $2.125 per share each year, which is equivalent to 8.50% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share. Dividends on our series A preferred stock are payable quarterly in arrears. Our series A preferred stock does not have a stated maturity date and is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption provisions.
Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, our series A preferred stock will rank senior to our common stock with respect to the payment of distributions and other amounts and ranks on parity with our Series B Preferred Stock. We are not allowed to redeem our series A preferred stock before February 9, 2010, except in limited circumstances to preserve our status as a REIT. On or after February 9, 2010, we may, at our option, redeem our series A preferred stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on such series A preferred stock up to but excluding the redemption date. Holders of our series A preferred stock generally have no voting rights except for limited voting rights if we fail to pay dividends for six or more quarterly periods (whether or not consecutive) and in certain other circumstances. Our series A preferred stock is not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of our company.
7.875% Series B Cumulative redeemable preferred stock
We currently have outstanding 2,530,000 shares of our 7.875% series B cumulative redeemable preferred Stock, or series B preferred stock. Dividends are cumulative on our series B preferred stock from the date of original issuance in the amount of $1.96875 per share each year, which is equivalent to 7.875% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share. Dividends on our series B preferred stock are payable quarterly in arrears. Our series B preferred stock does not have a stated maturity date and is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption provisions. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, our series B preferred stock will rank senior to our common stock with respect to the payment of distributions and other amounts and ranks on parity with our Series A Preferred Stock. We are not allowed to redeem our series B preferred stock before July 26, 2010, except in limited circumstances to preserve our status as a REIT. On or after July 26, 2010, we may, at our option, redeem our series B preferred stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on such series B preferred stock up to but excluding the redemption date. Holders of our series B preferred stock generally have no voting rights except for limited voting rights if we fail to pay dividends for six or more quarterly periods (whether or not consecutive) and in certain other circumstances. Our series B preferred stock is not convertible into or exchangeable for any other property or securities of our company.

(d) Stock Options
The fair value of each option granted under the 2004 Incentive Award Plan is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the weighted-average assumptions listed below for grants in 2005 and 2004. The fair values are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the options, which ranges from four to five years. The expense recorded for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the period from November 3, 2004 to December 31, 2004 was approximately $0.2 million and $32,000 respectively. Deferred compensation representing the unvested portion of the stock options totaled $1.0 million and $0.8 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively and is included in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We expect to recognize this deferred compensation over the next 3.4 years on a weighted average basis.
The following table shows the weighted-average assumptions used to calculate the fair value of the stock options granted for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the period from November 3, 2004 to December 31, 2004:
| | | | | | |
| | Year ended December 31, 2005 | | | November 3, 2004 to December 31, 2004 | |

At December 31, 2005, we had 939,841 stock options outstanding, with exercise prices ranging from $12.00 to $20.37. At December 31, 2005, outstanding stock options totaling 819,841 and all of the exercisable options had exercise prices between $12.00 and $14.50 and 120,000 outstanding stock options had an exercise price of $20.37. The weighted-average remaining contractual life of these options at December 31, 2005 was 9.0 years. At December 31, 2005 the weighted average fair value of exercisable stock options measured at their grant date was approximately $0.1 million.
8. Incentive Plan
(a) Incentive Award Plan
Our 2004 Incentive Award Plan provides for the grant of incentive awards to employees, directors and consultants. Awards issuable under the 2004 Incentive Award Plan include stock options, restricted stock, dividend equivalents, stock appreciation rights, long-term incentive units, cash performance bonuses and other incentive awards. Only employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options under the 2004 Incentive Award Plan. We have reserved a total of 4,474,102 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to the 2004 Incentive Award Plan, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the 2004 Incentive Award Plan. As of December 31, 2005, 587,039 shares of common stock or awards convertible into or exchangeable for common stock remained available for future issuance under the 2004 Incentive Award Plan. Each long-term incentive and Class C unit issued under the 2004 Incentive Award Plan will count as one share of common stock for purposes of calculating the limit on shares that may be issued under the 2004 Incentive Award Plan and the individual award limit discussed below.
(b) Long Term Incentive Units
Long-term incentive units may be issued to eligible participants for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Operating Partnership. Long-term incentive units, whether vested or not, will receive the same quarterly per unit distributions as common units in the Operating Partnership, which equal per share distributions on our common stock. Initially, long-term incentive units do not have full parity with common units with respect to liquidating distributions. Upon the occurrence of specified events, long-term incentive units may over time achieve full parity with common units in the Operating Partnership for all purposes, and therefore accrete to an economic value for participants equivalent to our common stock on a one-for-one basis. If such parity is reached, vested long-term incentive units may be converted into an equal number of common units of the Operating Partnership at any time, and thereafter enjoy all the rights of common units of the Operating Partnership.
In connection with the IPO an aggregate of 1,490,561 of fully vested long-term incentive units were issued and compensation expense totaling $17.9 million was recorded at the completion of the IPO. Parity was reached for these units on February 9, 2005 upon completion of our series A preferred stock offering.
(c) Class C Profits Interests Units
During the final quarter of 2005, we granted to each of our named executive officers and certain other employees an award of Class C Profits Interest Units (Class C Units) of the Operating Partnership under our 2004 Incentive Award Plan. If the performance condition and the other vesting conditions are satisfied with respect to a Class C Unit, as described below, the Class C Unit will be treated in the same manner as the existing long-term incentive units issued by the Operating Partnership.
The Class C Units subject to each award will vest based on the achievement of a 10% or greater compound annual total shareholder return, as defined, for the period from the grant date through earlier of September 30, 2008 and the date of a change of control of our Company (the Performance Condition) combined with the
26
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. AND
DIGITAL REALTY TRUST, INC. PREDECESSOR
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
employee’s continued service with our company or the Operating Partnership through September 30, 2010. Upon achievement of the performance condition, the Class C units will receive the same quarterly per unit distribution as common units in the operating partnership.
The aggregate amount of the performance award pool will be equal to 7% of the excess shareholder value, as defined, created during the applicable performance period, but in no event will the amount of the pool exceed the lesser of $40,000,000 or the value of 2.5% of the total number of shares of our common stock and limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership at the end of the performance period.
Except in the event of a change in control of our company, 60% of the Class C Units that satisfy the Performance Condition will vest at the end of the three year performance period and an additional 1/60th of such Class C Units will vest on the date of each monthly anniversary thereafter, provided that the employee’s service has not terminated prior to the applicable vesting date.
To the extent that any Class C Units fail to satisfy the Performance Condition, such Class C Units will automatically be cancelled and forfeited by the employee. In addition, any Class C Units which are not eligible for pro rata vesting in the event of a termination of the employee’s employment due to death or disability or without cause (or for good reason, if applicable) will automatically be cancelled and forfeited upon a termination of the employee’s employment.
In the event that the value of the employee’s allocated portion of the award pool that satisfies the performance condition equates to a number of Class C Units that is greater than the number of Class C Units awarded to the executive, we will make an additional payment to the executive in the form of a number of shares of our restricted stock equal to the difference subject to the same vesting requirements as the Class C Units.
A portion of the award pool remains unallocated and available for grants to other future senior executives or to the then current grantees (including the named executive officers) if the Compensation Committee determines that the award pool percentage allocated to one or more of such executives should be increased.
On October 26, 2005, the Operating Partnership amended and restated its agreement of limited partnership in order to create the Class C Units. The Class C Units awarded and award pool percentages with respect to the awards made in 2005 to our named Executive Officers and others are as follows:
| | | | | |
| | Number of Class C units | | Award Pool percentage | |
Richard A. Magnuson | | 333,333 | | 26.5 | % |
Michael F. Foust | | 250,000 | | 19.8 | % |
A. William Stein | | 166,667 | | 13.2 | % |
Scott E. Peterson | | 166,667 | | 13.2 | % |
Christopher J. Crosby | | 80,000 | | 6.3 | % |
Others | | 183,333 | | 14.6 | % |
Unallocated at December 31, 2005 | | 80,000 | | 6.4 | % |
| | | | | |
| | 1,260,000 | | 100.0 | % |
| | | | | |
The fair value of these awards of approximately $4.0 million will be recognized as compensation expense over the expected service period of five years. We recognized compensation expense related to these Class C units of $0.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2005. If the Performance Condition is not met, the amount of unamortized amount will be recognized as an expense at that time.

(d) 401(k) Plan
We have a 401(k) plan whereby our employees may contribute a portion of their compensation to their respective retirement accounts, in an amount not to exceed the maximum allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. The 401(k) Plan complies with Internal Revenue Service requirements as a 401(k) Safe Harbor Plan whereby discretionary contributions made by us are 100% vested. The aggregate cost of our contributions to the 401(k) Plan was approximately $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, and we incurred no cost during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.
9. Fair Value of Instruments
We disclose fair value information about all financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheets, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.
The estimates of the fair value financial instruments at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities, security deposits and prepaid rents approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. As described in note 10, the interest rate cap, interest rate swap and foreign currency forward sale contracts are recorded at fair value.
We calculate the fair value of our notes payable under line of credit, mortgage and other secured loans based on currently available market rates assuming the loans are outstanding through maturity and considering the collateral and other loan terms. In determining the current market rate for fixed rate debt, a market spread is added to the quoted yields on federal government treasury securities with similar maturity dates to debt.
At December 31, 2005 the aggregate fair value of our mortgage and other secured loans is estimated to be $754.1 million compared to the carrying value of $749.1 million. As of December 31, 2004 the fair value of our loans was estimated to be approximately $530.9 million compared to a carrying value of $519.5 million.
10. Derivative Instruments
In November 2004 and May 2005, we entered into interest rate swaps to hedge variability in cash flows related to certain of our mortgage loans. The fair value of such derivatives was $3.3 million and ($27,000) at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the change in net unrealized gains for derivatives designated as cash flow hedges was $3.3 million, and is separately disclosed in the statement of comprehensive income, as reduced by the amount allocated to minority interests.

As of December 31, 2005, we estimate that $2.0 million of accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to earnings as a reduction to interest expense during the year ending December 31, 2006 as the hedged forecasted transactions impact earnings.
The table below summarizes the terms of these interest rate swaps and their fair values as of December 31, 2005 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Current Notional Amount | | Strike Rate | | | Effective Date | | Expiration Date | | Fair Value |

| 8,775 | | 3.331 | | | Nov. 26, 2004 | | Dec. 1, 2006 | | | 110 |
| 100,000 | | 4.025 | | | May 26, 2006 | | Jun. 15, 2008 | | | 1,620 |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
$ | 192,880 | | | | | | | | | $ | 3,267 |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
We also have LIBOR interest rate caps as required by the lenders that are not designated as hedges. The fair values of the caps were immaterial as of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.
In 2003, the Predecessor entered into a foreign currency forward sale contract of approximately £7.9 million, with a delivery date of January 24, 2005, to hedge the equity investment in 6 Braham Street, located in London, England. On January 24, 2005, we settled our obligations under this arrangement for a payment of approximately $2.5 million and entered into a new forward contract of the same notional amount expiring in January 2006. On February 4, 2005, GI Partners reimbursed us for $1.9 million of the $2.5 million settlement since it was determined that the negative value associated with the forward contract that we assumed was not otherwise factored into the determination of the number of common units that were granted to GI Partners in exchange for our interests in 6 Braham Street.
The forward contracts had been designated as net investment hedges and the contracts had values of $1.0 million and ($2.8) million on December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. The change in value of the derivative was recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) as a part of the cumulative translation adjustments. The $1.9 million received from GI Partners was recorded as other comprehensive income during the year ended December 31, 2005, when GI Partners agreed to pay such amount. The cumulative translation adjustment amounts included in other comprehensive income (loss) related to the net investment hedge will be reclassified to earnings when the hedged investment is sold or liquidated. We terminated this contract in January 2006 and received cash of approximately $0.7 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, Qwest Communications International, Inc. comprised approximately 10.3% of total revenues. Other than noted here, for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 no single tenant comprised more than 10% of total revenues.
12. Related Party Transactions
We paid additional compensation, not encompassed in the management fee, to affiliates of CB Richard Ellis, an affiliate of GI Partners for real estate services.

In April 2005, we entered into two agreements with Linc Facility Services, LLC, or LFS primarily for personnel providing for operations and maintenance repairs of the mechanical, electrical, plumbing and general building service systems of five of our properties. LFS belongs to The Linc Group, which GI Partners has owned since late 2003. Our consolidated statement of operations includes expenses approximately $0.7 million for these services for the year ended December 31, 2005 and we owed LFS approximately $67,000 at December 31, 2005.
Asset management fees incurred by GI Partners totaling approximately $2.7 million and $3.2 million for the period from January 1, 2004 to November 2, 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2003, respectively have been allocated to the Predecessor. These fees were paid to an affiliate of GI Partners. Although neither we nor the Operating Partnership are or will be parties to the agreement requiring the payment of the asset management fees, an allocation of such fees has been included in the accompanying combined financial statements of the Predecessor. This is because this fee is essentially the Predecessor’s historical general and administrative expense as the Predecessor did not directly incur personnel costs, home office space rent or other general and administrative expenses that are incurred directly by us and the Operating Partnership subsequent to the completion of the IPO. These types of expenses were historically incurred by the asset manager and were passed through to GI Partners via the asset management fee.

We acquired 8534 Concord Center Drive from GI Partners in May 2005 for approximately $16.5 million. As of December 31, 2005, GI Partners had $1.2 million of letters of credit outstanding that secure obligations relating to two of our properties, 600 West Seventh Street and 7979 East Tufts Avenue. These letters of credit were initially issued in lieu of making deposits required by a local utility and in lieu of establishing a restricted cash account on behalf of a lender. These letters of credit were transferred to us on January 1, 2006. Prior to December 31, 2005 we reimbursed GI Partners for the costs of maintaining the letters of credit, which payments were less than $5,000 per quarter.
13. Commitments and Contingencies
(a) Operating Leases
We have a ground lease obligation on 2010 East Centennial Circle that expires in 2082. After February 2036, rent for the remaining term of the 2010 East Centennial Circle ground lease will be determined based on a fair market value appraisal of the property and, as result, rent after February 2036 is excluded from the minimum commitment information below.
We have ground leases on Paul van Vlissingenstraat 16 which we acquired in August 2005 that expires in 2054 and a ground lease over Chemin de l’Epinglier 2 which we acquired in November 2005 that expires in July 2074. We have an operating lease for our current headquarters which we occupied in June 2005 and expires in May 2012 with an option to extend the lease until September 2017.
Rental expense for these three leases was $440,000, $339,000 and $198,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 respectively.

We have also agreed with the seller to share a portion, not to exceed $135,000 per month, of rental revenue, adjusted for our costs to lease the premises, from the lease of the 260,000 square feet of space held for redevelopment. This revenue sharing agreement will terminate in May 2013. As part of the acquisition of Paul van Vlissingenstraat 16, we entered into an agreement with the seller, whereby, for twelve months from the execution of the purchase and sale agreement, our purchase price may increase dependant upon future leasing activity as a result of actions by the seller. The amount of the potential commitment is not currently quantifiable as it is based on a 10% cap rate on the incremental operating income from qualifying new leases that are closed or binding during the participation period. We have recorded no liability for these contingent liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2005.

(c) Purchase commitments
At December 31, 2005 we had signed agreements to acquire a property located in Dublin, Ireland and Carrollton, Texas. We acquired both of these properties in the first quarter of 2006.
Our properties require periodic investments of capital for tenant-related capital expenditures and for general capital improvements. As of December 31, 2005, we had commitments under leases in effect for approximately $30.0 million of tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions all of which we expect to incur in 2006.
