2. OP Units are convertible to common stock of the Issuer on a one-for-one basis.
3. The OP Units were received in exchange for the direct or indirect contribution to DuPont Fabros Technology, L.P., of certain partnership, membership, or ownership interests in certain partnerships or limited liability companies which own and manage, directly or indirectly, certain properties in California, Illinois, New Jersey, Virginia, and/or the District of Columbia. The value of the OP Units was $21.00 per OP Unit as of the Transaction Date, based on the price of the common stock of the Issuer at the time of the Issuer's initial public offering.
