The redemption and fundamental change provisions provide balanced protection for both the company and noteholders. The semi-annual interest payments and 2029 maturity align well with typical commercial real estate investment horizons, while the exchangeable feature offers participation in potential equity appreciation of this leading data center platform.

Digital Realty L.P. intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to temporarily repay borrowings outstanding under its global revolving credit facilities, acquire additional properties or businesses, fund development opportunities, and to provide for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including potentially for the repayment of other debt or the repurchase, redemption, or retirement of outstanding debt securities, or a combination of the foregoing.
