19. Commitments and Contingencies

Construction Commitments Our properties require periodic investments of capital for tenant-related capital

expenditures and for general capital improvements and from time to time in the normal course of our business, we

enter into various construction contracts with third parties that may obligate us to make payments. At

December 31, 2024, we had open commitments, including amounts reimbursable of approximately $102.5

million, related to construction contracts of approximately $2.0 billion.

Legal Proceedings Although the Company is involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, as of December 31, 2024, the Company is not currently a party to any legal proceedings nor, to its knowledge, is any legal proceeding threatened against it that it believes would have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

As we disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 9, 2023, the Division of Enforcement of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is conducting an investigation into the adequacy of our disclosures of cybersecurity risks and our related disclosure controls and procedures. We are cooperating with the SEC and are not aware of any cybersecurity issue or event that caused the Staff to open this matter. Responding to an investigation of this type can be costly and time-consuming. While we are unable to predict the likely outcome of this matter or the potential cost or exposure or duration of the process, based on the information we currently possess, we do not expect the total potential cost to be material to our financial condition. If the SEC believes that violations occurred, it could seek remedies including, but not limited to, civil monetary penalties and injunctive relief, and/or file litigation against the Company.

Insurance – In September 2024, an incident at one of our Singapore data centers resulted in damages to the facility. We believe this incident is substantially covered by our insurance policies, including coverage for the repair cost of the building, business interruption loss and potential third-party claims, subject to deductibles. Initial costs, including direct costs related to the incident and an estimated write-off of damage caused to existing fixed assets, totaling approximately $16 million were incurred during 2024. After factoring our expected insurance coverage and related deductible, we have reported net expenses of approximately $5.0 million related to this incident for 2024. As of December 31, 2024, we received insurance proceeds of $7.3 million, and we have established an insurance receivable of $11.6 million for known losses for which insurance reimbursement is probable, which is included in Other Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. No gain contingencies have been recognized as our ability to realize those gains remains uncertain.
