* Indicates properties in which we hold a leasehold interest.
| (1) | | On a gross basis, our total portfolio annualized rent was approximately $220.0 million as of September 30, 2016, which reflects the addition of $5.9 million in operating expense reimbursements to contractual net rent under modified gross and triple-net leases. |
| (2) | | Includes customer leases that have commenced and are occupied as of September 30, 2016. If all leases signed during the current and prior periods had commenced, the percent occupied would have been as follows: |
| | | | | | | |
Percent Leased | | Stabilized | | Pre-Stabilized | | Total | |
Total Data Center Facilities | | 94.3 | % | 29.4 | % | 88.9 | % |
Total Portfolio | | 91.4 | % | 29.4 | % | 87.0 | % |
| (3) | | The annualized rent for the Santa Clara campus includes $4.2 million associated with a restructured lease agreement involving a customer that has vacated its leased space and is paying discounted rent payments that may be applied to new lease arrangements elsewhere in our portfolio on a dollar-for-dollar basis until the original lease term expires in Q2 2017. |

| (1) | | Represents incremental data center capacity that may be constructed within existing facilities when the core and shell building have been developed and a portion of the existing space is not yet built out into data center space. |
| (2) | | As we construct data center capacity, we work to optimize both the amount of the capital we deploy on power and cooling infrastructure and the timing of that capital deployment; as such, we generally construct our power and cooling infrastructure supporting our data center NRSF based on our estimate of customer utilization. This practice can result in our investment at a later time in Deferred Expansion Capital. We define Deferred Expansion Capital as our estimate of the incremental capital we may invest in the future to add power or cooling infrastructure to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization of NRSF within our operating data centers. From time to time, we may revise our estimate of Deferred Expansion Capital, as well as the potential time period during which we may invest it. We currently estimate a range of $20 - $30 million of future Deferred Expansion Capital investment. |
| (3) | | In addition to new construction and incremental capacity in existing core and shell buildings, we have available acreage of entitled and unentitled land we own adjacent to our existing buildings, in the form of existing parking lots. By utilizing existing parking lots, we believe we can build approximately 100,000 NRSF and 200,000 NRSF buildings on our available acreage at NY2 and LA2, respectively. |
| (4) | | During Q3 2016, we entered a binding agreement to expand our position in the Northern Virginia market with the purchase of Sunrise Technology Park, a 21.75-acre light-industrial / flex office park consisting of four buildings totaling 315,000 NRSF. Pursuant to the purchase agreement and subject to customary closing conditions, we are obligated to purchase the property. Based upon our expectations regarding entitlements for the campus, we estimate that we can build approximately 660,000 NRSF of new data center capacity across multiple phases. These estimates are subject to change based on current economic conditions and the supply and demand dynamics of the market. We anticipate closing on the acquisition during Q4 2016. |

Appendix
Definitions
This document includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) and therefore may not be comparable. The non-GAAP measures should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indicator of our performance and should be considered only a supplement to net income, cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as measures of profitability and/or liquidity, computed in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Funds From Operations “AFFO” is a non-GAAP measure that is used as a supplemental
operating measure specifically for comparing year over year ability to fund dividend distribution from operating activities. We use AFFO as a basis to address our ability to fund our dividend payments. AFFO is calculated by adding to or subtracting from FFO:
| 1. | | Plus: Amortization of deferred financing costs |
| 2. | | Plus: Non-cash compensation |
| 3. | | Plus: Non-real estate depreciation |
| 4. | | Plus: Impairment charges |
| 5. | | Plus: Below market debt amortization |
| 6. | | Less: Straight line rents adjustment |
| 7. | | Less: Amortization of above and below market leases |
| 8. | | Less: Recurring capital expenditures |
| 9. | | Less: Tenant improvements |
| 10. | | Less: Capitalized leasing costs |
Capitalized leasing costs consist of commissions payable to third parties, including brokers, leasing agents, referral agents, and internal sales commissions payable to employees. Capitalized leasing costs are accrued and deducted from AFFO generally in the period the lease is executed. Leasing costs are generally paid a) to third party brokers and internal sales employees 50% at customer lease signing and 50% at lease commencement and b) to referral and leasing agents monthly over the lease term as and to the extent we receive payment from the end customer.
AFFO is not intended to represent cash flow from operations for the period, and is only intended to provide an additional measure of performance by adjusting for the effect of certain items noted above included in FFO. Other REITs widely report AFFO, however, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating AFFO and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs.
Annualized Rent
Monthly contractual rent under existing commenced customer leases as of quarter-end, multiplied by 12. This amount reflects total annualized base rent before any one-time or non-recurring rent abatements and excludes power revenue, interconnection revenue and operating expense reimbursement.

Appendix
Data Center Leasing Metrics
| · | | Rental Churn Rate – represents data center leases which are not renewed or are terminated during the period. Rental churn is calculated based on the annualized rent of data center expired leases terminated in the period, compared with total portfolio annualized rent at the beginning of the period. |
| · | | Cash and GAAP Rent Growth – represents the increase in rental rates on renewed data center leases signed during the period, as compared with the previous rental rates for the same space. Cash and GAAP rent growth are calculated based on annualized rent from the renewed data center lease compared to annualized rent from the expired data center lease. |
Data Center Net Rentable Square Feet (“NRSF”)
Both occupied and available data center NRSF includes a factor based on management’s estimate of space to account for a customer’s proportionate share of required data center support space (such as the mechanical, telecommunications and utility rooms) and building common areas, which may be updated on a periodic basis to reflect the most current build-out of our properties.
Deferred Expansion Capital
As we construct data center capacity, we work to optimize both the amount of the capital we deploy on power and cooling infrastructure and the timing of that capital deployment; as such, we generally construct our power and cooling infrastructure supporting our data center NRSF based on our estimate of customer utilization. This practice can result in our investment at a later time in Deferred Expansion Capital. We define Deferred Expansion Capital as our estimate of the incremental capital we may invest in the future to add power or cooling infrastructure to support existing or anticipated future customer utilization of NRSF within our operating data centers. From time to time, we may revise our estimate of Deferred Expansion Capital as well as the potential time period during which we may invest it. See the Data Center Projects Under Construction and Held for Development tables on pages 20 and 21, respectively, for more detail.
Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA ���
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We calculate adjusted EBITDA by adding our non-cash compensation expense, transaction costs and litigation expense to EBITDA as well as adjusting for the impact of impairment charges, gains or losses from sales of property and undepreciated land and gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt. Management uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as indicators of our ability to incur and service debt. In addition, we consider EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to be appropriate supplemental measures of our performance because they eliminate depreciation and interest, which permits investors to view income from operations without the impact of non-cash depreciation or the cost of debt. However, because EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are calculated before recurring cash charges including interest expense and taxes, and are not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of our business, their utilization as a cash flow measurement is limited.

Appendix
Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental measure of our performance which should be considered
along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash provided by operating activities as a measure of operating performance and liquidity. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and undepreciated land and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO attributable to common shares and units represents FFO less preferred stock dividends declared during the period.
Our management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, by excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.
We offer this measure because we recognize that investors use FFO as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and capitalized leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our financial condition and results from operations. FFO is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered a measure of liquidity, an alternative to net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions. In addition, our calculations of FFO are not necessarily comparable to FFO as calculated by other REITs that do not use the same definition or implementation guidelines or interpret the standards differently from us. Investors in our securities should not rely on these measures as a substitute for any GAAP measure, including net income.
Monthly Recurring Revenue per Cabinet Equivalent
Represents the turn-key monthly recurring colocation revenue (“MRR”) per cabinet equivalent billed. We define MRR as recurring contractual revenue under existing commenced customer leases. MRR per cabinet equivalent is calculated as (current quarter MRR/3) divided by ((quarter-end cabinet equivalents billed plus prior quarter-end cabinet equivalents billed)/2). Cabinet equivalents are calculated as cage-usable square feet (turn-key leased NRSF/NRSF factor) divided by 25.

Appendix
Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and Cash NOI – NOI, and cash NOI are supplemental measures for the operating performance of the company’s portfolio. NOI is operating revenues less operating expenses adjusted for items such as depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, transaction costs and litigation expenses. Cash NOI is NOI less straight-line rents and above and below market rent amortization.
NRSF Held for Development
Represents incremental data center capacity that may be constructed in existing facilities that requires significant capital investment in order to develop new data center facilities. The data represents management's best estimate of incremental costs based on estimated NRSF and power design and are subject to market conditions and build-out specifications and may vary.
NRSF Under Construction
Represents NRSF for which substantial activities are ongoing to prepare the property for its intended use following development. The NRSF reflects managements estimate of engineering drawings and required support space and is subject to change based on final demising of space. Estimated costs of completion are based on actual costs at quarter-end and management’s estimate of remaining projects costs.
Turn-Key Same Store
Includes turn-key data center space that was leased or available to be leased to our colocation customers as of December 31, 2014, at each of our properties, and excludes powered shell data center space, SV3 data center space, office and light-industrial space and space for which development was completed and became available to be leased after December 31, 2014. The turn-key same store space as of December 31, 2014, is 1,149,119 NRSF. We track same store on a computer room basis within each data center facility.
Stabilized and Pre-Stabilized NRSF
Data center projects and facilities that recently have been developed and are in the initial lease-up phase are classified as pre-stabilized NRSF until they reach 85% occupancy or have been in service for 24 months. Pre-stabilized projects and facilities become stabilized operating properties at the earlier of achievement of 85% occupancy or 24 months after development completion and are included in the stabilized operating NRSF.
