| (1) | Long-term incentive units are partnership interests in Digital Realty Trust, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership of which the issuer is the general partner (the "Operating Partnership"). Twenty percent of these units will vest on April 28, 2010, an additional 20% will vest on April 28, 2011, an additional 30% will vest on April 28, 2012 and an additional 30% will vest on April 28, 2013, so that the award shall be fully vested as of April 28, 2013. Long-term incentive units receive the same quarterly distributions as common limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership ("Common Units"). (Continued on Footnote 2.) |
| (2) | Upon vesting, long-term incentive units may initially not have full parity with Common Units with respect to liquidating distributions; however, upon the occurrence of specified events, long-term incentive units may achieve full parity with Common Units for all purposes, and thereafter vested long-term incentive units may be converted into an equal number of Common Units on a one-for-one basis at any time. Common Units will be redeemable for cash based on the fair market value of an equivalent number of shares of the issuer's common stock, or, at the election of the issuer, for an equal number of shares of the issuer's common stock, in each case, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, issuance of stock rights, specified extraordinary distributions or similar events. |
