Global Revolving Credit Facility

On November 3, 2011, the Operating Partnership replaced its corporate and Asia Pacific revolving credit facilities with an expanded revolving credit facility, which we refer to as the global revolving credit facility, increasing its total capacity to $1.5 billion from $850 million. The global revolving credit facility has an accordion feature that would enable us to increase the borrowing capacity of the credit facility to $2.25 billion, subject to the receipt of lender commitments. On August 10, 2012, we increased the aggregate commitments under our global revolving credit facility from $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion, pursuant to the partial exercise of the accordion feature.  The renewed facility matures in November 2015, with a one-year extension option. The interest rate for borrowings under the expanded facility equals the applicable index plus a margin which is based on the credit rating of our long-term debt and is currently 125 basis points. An annual facility fee on the unused portion of the facility, based on the credit rating of our long-term debt and currently 25 basis points, is payable quarterly. Funds may be drawn in U.S., Canadian, Singapore, Australian and Hong Kong dollars, as well as Euro, Pound Sterling, Swiss Franc and Japanese yen denominations. As of September 30, 2012, borrowings under the global revolving credit facility bore interest at a blended rate of  1.79% (GBP), 1.56% (Singapore Dollars), 4.83% (Australian Dollars) and 1.55% (Hong Kong Dollars), which are based on 1-month GBP LIBOR,  1-month SIBOR,  1-month BBR and 1-month HIBOR, respectively, plus a margin of 1.25%. We have used and intend to use available borrowings under the global revolving credit facility to acquire additional properties, fund development and redevelopment opportunities and to provide for working capital and other corporate purposes, including potentially for the repurchase, redemption or retirement of outstanding debt or preferred equity securities. We capitalized approximately $11.2 million of financing costs related to the global revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2012, approximately $526.4 million was drawn under this facility and $22.4 million of letters of credit were issued.

The global revolving 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, including with respect to unencumbered assets. In addition, the global revolving credit facility restricts Digital Realty Trust, Inc. from making distributions to its stockholders, or redeeming or otherwise repurchasing shares of its capital stock, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, except in limited circumstances including as necessary to enable Digital Realty Trust, Inc. to maintain its qualification as a REIT and to minimize the payment of income or excise tax. As of September 30, 2012, we were in compliance with all of such covenants.

Unsecured Term Loan

On April 17, 2012, we closed a new $750.0 million senior unsecured multi-currency term loan facility. The new facility matures on April 16, 2017. Interest rates are based on our senior unsecured debt ratings and are currently 145 basis points over the applicable index for floating rate advances. Funds may be drawn in U.S, Singapore and Australian dollars, as well as Euro and Pound Sterling denominations with the option to add Hong Kong dollars and Yen upon an accordion exercise, subject to the receipt of lender commitments. We had the ability to delay draw up to $250.0 million for up to 90 days from the date of closing. As of June 30, 2012, we had drawn approximately $525 million of the available facility based on exchange rates in effect at the time of each draw.  An additional $225 million was drawn against the facility during July 2012 based on exchange rates in effect at the time of the draws.   Based on exchange rates in effect at September 30, 2012, the balance outstanding is approximately $754.9 million. We have used borrowings under the term loan for acquisitions, repayment of indebtedness, development and redevelopment, working capital and general corporate purposes. The covenants under this loan are consistent with our global revolving credit facility. We capitalized approximately $5.3 million of financing costs related to the unsecured term loan.

   3.625% Notes due 2022

On September 24, 2012, the Operating Partnership issued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of notes, maturing on October 1, 2022 with an interest rate of 3.625% per annum (the 2022 Notes). The purchase price paid by the initial purchasers was 98.684% of the principal amount. The 2022 Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of the Operating Partnership, rank equally in right of payment with all other senior unsecured indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Digital Realty Trust, Inc. Interest on the 2022 Notes is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2013. The net proceeds from the offering after deducting the original issue discount of approximately $3.9 million and underwriting commissions and expenses of approximately $3.0 million was approximately $293.1 million. We used the net proceeds from this offering to temporarily repay borrowings under our global revolving credit facility. The 2022 Notes have been reflected net of discount in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.  The indenture governing the 2022 Notes contains certain covenants, including (1) a leverage ratio not to exceed 60%, (2) a secured debt leverage ratio not to exceed 40% and (3) an interest coverage ratio of greater than 1.50, and also requires us to maintain total unencumbered assets of not less than 150% of the aggregate principal amount of unsecured debt. At September 30, 2012, we were in compliance with each of these financial covenants.
