Introductory Note

Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “our company,” “the company” or “Digital Realty” refer to Digital Realty Trust, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Digital Realty Trust, L.P., our “operating partnership.”

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 6, 2026, Digital Constellation B.V., an indirect wholly owned finance subsidiary of the operating partnership, issued and sold CHF225 million aggregate principal amount of 1.6803% Guaranteed Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”), CHF185 million aggregate principal amount of 2.0600% Guaranteed Notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) and CHF100 million aggregate principal amount of 2.4150% Guaranteed Notes due 2036 (the “2036 Notes” and together with the 2029 Notes and the 2032 Notes, the “Swiss Franc Notes”). The Swiss Franc Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Digital Constellation B.V. and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the operating partnership and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V., an indirect wholly owned holding and finance subsidiary of the operating partnership through which the Interxion business is held. The Swiss Franc Notes were sold outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and in Switzerland pursuant to a public offering made in reliance on an exemption from the obligation to publish a prospectus approved by a Swiss review body pursuant to article 51(2) of the Swiss Financial Services Act and article 60 of the Swiss Financial Services Ordinance. The Swiss Franc Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to United States persons (within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act) absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.

The terms of the Swiss Franc Notes are governed by terms and conditions, dated as of October 2, 2026 (the “Conditions”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference. Each of the Swiss Franc Notes are evidenced by permanent global certificates, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2, Exhibit 4.3 and Exhibit 4.4, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference. The Conditions contain various restrictive covenants, including limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness and requirements to maintain a pool of unencumbered assets. The descriptions of the Conditions, the Swiss Franc Notes and the guarantees in this report are summaries and are qualified in their entirety by the terms of the Conditions and the forms of the Swiss Franc Notes.

Net proceeds from the offering of the Swiss Franc Notes were CHF508.39 million after deducting the managers’ commissions and certain offering expenses. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Swiss Franc Notes to temporarily repay borrowings outstanding under the operating partnership’s global revolving credit facilities, acquire additional properties or businesses, fund development opportunities, invest in interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities which are consistent with Digital Realty Trust, Inc.’s intention to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and to provide for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including potentially for the repayment of other debt, or the redemption, repurchase, repayment or retirement of outstanding equity or debt securities, or a combination of the foregoing.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

the 2036 Notes will mature on October 6, 2036. The Swiss Franc Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Digital Constellation B.V. and rank equally in right of payment with all of Digital Constellation B.V.’s other existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Digital Constellation B.V.’s obligations under the Swiss Franc Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the operating partnership and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V., an indirect wholly owned holding and finance subsidiary of the operating partnership through which the Interxion business is held.

The Swiss Franc Notes are generally not redeemable at the option of Digital Constellation B.V., except as set out below.

Digital Constellation B.V. may redeem any series of Swiss Franc Notes, in whole, but not in part, on or after the date that is three months prior to the maturity date thereof, or July 8, 2029 for the 2029 Notes, July 6, 2032 for the 2032 Notes and July 6, 2036 for the 2036 Notes, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such series of Swiss Franc Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Additionally, at any time following the issue date and prior to the maturity date, Digital Constellation B.V. may also redeem any series of Swiss Franc Notes in whole, but not in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such series of Swiss Franc Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date if 75% or more of the aggregate principal amount of such series of Swiss Franc Notes have been redeemed or purchased and cancelled at the time of such notice.

All payments of principal and interest on the Swiss Franc Notes will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or the Netherlands or a political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein having power to tax, unless the withholding of such tax, assessment or governmental charge is required by law or the official interpretation or administration thereof. In the event such withholding or deduction of taxes is required by law, then, subject to certain exceptions, Digital Constellation B.V. will pay such “additional amounts” necessary so that the net payment of the principal of and interest on the Swiss Franc Notes to a holder who is not a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes, including additional amounts, after the withholding or deduction, will not be less than the amount provided in such Swiss Franc Notes to be then due and payable.

If, due to certain changes in tax law, Digital Constellation B.V. has or will become obligated to pay additional amounts on the Swiss Franc Notes or if there is a substantial probability that Digital Constellation B.V. will become obligated to pay additional amounts on the Swiss Franc Notes, then Digital Constellation B.V. may, on giving not less than 15 days’ nor more than 45 days’ notice, at its option, redeem the Swiss Franc Notes, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Swiss Franc Notes to be redeemed, together with interest accrued and unpaid, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Certain events are considered events of default, which may result in the accelerated maturity of the Swiss Franc Notes, including:

•

a default for 30 days in payment of any installment of interest under the Swiss Franc Notes;

•

a default in the payment of the principal amount or redemption price due with respect to the Swiss Franc Notes, when the same becomes due and payable;

•

Digital Constellation B.V.’s, Digital Realty Trust, Inc.’s, Digital Intrepid Holding B.V.’s or the operating partnership’s failure to comply with any of their respective other agreements in the Swiss Franc Notes or the Conditions upon receipt by Digital Constellation B.V., Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. or the operating partnership of notice of such default from the noteholders’ representative or from holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Swiss Franc Notes then outstanding and Digital Constellation B.V.’s, Digital Realty Trust, Inc.’s, Digital Intrepid Holding B.V.’s or the operating partnership’s failure to cure (or obtain a waiver of) such default within 90 days after receipt of such notice;

•

failure to pay any indebtedness (other than non-recourse indebtedness) that is (a) of Digital Constellation B.V., Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the operating partnership, Digital Intrepid Holding B.V., any subsidiary in which the operating partnership has invested at least $125,000,000 in capital, which we refer to as a Significant Subsidiary, or any entity in which the operating partnership is the general partner, and (b) in an outstanding principal amount in excess of $125,000,000 at final maturity or upon acceleration after the expiration of any applicable grace period, which indebtedness (other than non-recourse indebtedness) is not discharged, or such default in payment or acceleration is not cured or rescinded, within 60 days after written notice to Digital Constellation B.V. from the noteholders’ representative (or to Digital Constellation B.V. and the noteholders’ representative from holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Swiss Franc Notes); or

•

certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, or court appointment of a receiver, liquidator or trustee of Digital Constellation B.V., Digital Realty Trust, Inc., the operating partnership, Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. or any Significant Subsidiary or any substantial part of their respective property.

Exhibit 4.1

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES

Amount, Form, Denomination, Custodianship and Transfer of the Notes

(a)

The 2029 notes, 2032 notes and 2036 notes will be issued in aggregate principal amounts of CHF 225,000,000, CHF

185,000,000 and CHF 100,000,000, respectively. The notes will be issued with minimum denominations of CHF5,000 and integral multiples thereof. The Swiss Security Code, ISIN and Common Code for the 2029 notes will be 160960524, CH1609605246 and

352949531, respectively, the Swiss Security Code, ISIN and Common Code for the 2032 notes will be 160960525, CH1609605253 and 352949647, respectively, and the Swiss Security Code, ISIN and Common Code for the 2036 notes will be 160960526,

CH1609605261 and 352949752, respectively.

(b)

Digital Constellation B.V. (the “Issuer”) reserves the right to reopen and increase the

aggregate principal amount of the notes issued at any time and without prior consultation or permission of the holders of the notes (the “Noteholders” and, individually, a “Noteholder”) through the issuance of

further notes which will be fungible with the notes (i.e., identical in respect of these Terms and Conditions of the notes, security number, final maturity and interest rate).

(c)

Each series of notes is documented in the form of a permanent global certificate (Globalurkunde auf

Dauer)(the “Permanent Global Certificate”) in bearer form. Such Permanent Global Certificate shall be deposited by UBS AG, Bahnhofstrasse 45, 8001 Zurich, Switzerland, acting as principal paying agent with respect to the notes

(the “Principal Paying Agent”) with SIX SIS Ltd, Baslerstrasse 100, 4600 Olten, Switzerland, or any successor organization (the “SIX SIS”) recognized by SIX Swiss Exchange Ltd, Selnaustrasse 30, 8001 Zurich,

Switzerland (P.O. Box 1758, 8021 Zurich, Switzerland) or any successor exchange (the “SIX Swiss Exchange”) for the entire duration of the notes and until their maturity date unless earlier redeemed, except as provided in this

Condition 1 (Amount, Form, Denomination, Custodianship and Transfer of the Notes). As a matter of Swiss law, once the Permanent Global Certificate is deposited with SIX SIS and the notes are entered into the account of one or more

participants in SIX SIS, the notes shall constitute intermediated securities (Bucheffekten) in accordance with the provisions of the Swiss Federal Intermediated Securities Act (Bucheffektengesetz). On behalf of the Issuer, SIX SIS

shall maintain records of the number of notes held through each participant in SIX SIS for the entire duration of the notes and until their maturity date unless earlier redeemed, except as provided in this Condition 1 (Amount, Form, Denomination,

Custodianship and Transfer of the Notes). The notes in the form of intermediated securities may only be transferred by the entry of the transferred notes in a securities account of the transferee in accordance with the Swiss Federal

Intermediated Securities Act.

(d)

The records of SIX SIS will determine the number of notes held through each participant in SIX SIS. In respect

of notes held in the form of intermediated securities, the Noteholders will be the persons holding the notes in a securities account (Effektenkonto) which is in their name, or in case of intermediaries (Verwahrungsstellen), the

intermediaries holding the notes for their own account in a securities account which is in their name.

(e)

Neither the Issuer nor the Noteholders shall at any time have the right to effect or demand the conversion of

the Permanent Global Certificate into, or the delivery of, notes as uncertificated securities (Wertrechte) or individually certificated securities (Wertpapiere).

(f)

To the extent that SIX SIS is no longer able to act as depositary, the Principal Paying Agent, in consultation

with the Issuer, will deposit the notes with another recognized depositary in accordance with the provisions of the Swiss Federal Intermediated Securities Act (Bucheffektengesetz) and such depositary shall be subject to all the obligations

and requirements that apply to SIX SIS in respect of the notes. Individually certificated securities shall be issued only when no such depositary can be procured, and if they are to be issued, such securities will not be issued in bearer form, but

exclusively in registered form such that the notes qualify as being in “registered form” for United States federal income tax purposes whereby, inter alia, (i) the noteholders of the individually certificated securities shall be

registered in a register (the “Register”) to be established and maintained by a registrar (the “Registrar”) appointed by the Issuer and acting on its behalf after consultation with the Principal Paying Agent and

duly notified to the Noteholders in accordance with these Terms and Conditions, (ii) no transfer of the individually certificated securities shall be valid unless and until entered into the Register and (iii) any other requirement is

satisfied to ensure that the notes are treated as issued exclusively in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and

Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed United States Treasury Regulations (or any successor provisions).

Guarantees

(a)

Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. (the

“Guarantors” and each, a “Guarantor”) each fully and unconditionally guarantee (the “Guarantees” and each, a “Guarantee”) the Issuer’s obligations under the notes on a

senior unsecured basis, to each Noteholder and its successors and assigns that: (i) the principal of (including the redemption price upon redemption pursuant to Conditions 6 and 7), and premium, if any, and interest on the notes shall be duly

and punctually paid in full when due, whether at the maturity date, upon acceleration, upon redemption, upon repurchase or otherwise, and interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, and (to the extent permitted by law) interest on any

interest, if any, on the notes and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Noteholders or the Noteholders’ Representative hereunder or under the notes (including fees, expenses or other) shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in

accordance with the terms hereof; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any notes or any of such other obligations, the same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the

extension or renewal, whether at the maturity date, by acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, subject, however, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, to the limitations set forth herein (collectively, the “Guarantee

Obligations”).

(b)

The Guarantees shall be senior unsecured obligations of Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P.

and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. and will rank equally in right of payment with other senior unsecured obligations of Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. However, each Guarantee shall be

effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of the applicable Guarantor’s existing and future secured indebtedness (to the extent of the collateral securing the same) and to all existing and future liabilities and preferred equity,

whether secured or unsecured, of the applicable Guarantor’s subsidiaries.

(c)

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance hereof each Noteholder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all

such parties that the Guarantee Obligations of such Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act

or any similar federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Noteholders and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agree that the Guarantee Obligations of each Guarantor under this Condition 2 shall be limited to the maximum amount as

shall, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor, result in the Guarantee Obligations of such Guarantor under the Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

(d)

Each Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees, to the fullest extent that it may do so under applicable law, that

in the event of the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer, such Guarantor shall not file (or join in any filing of), or otherwise seek to participate in the filing of, any motion or request seeking to stay

or to prohibit (even temporarily) execution on the Guarantee and hereby waives and agrees not to take the benefit of any such stay of execution, whether under Section 362 or 105 of the Bankruptcy Law or otherwise.

(e)

Subject to the provisions of this Condition 2, each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee hereunder shall

be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the notes or these Terms and Conditions, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Noteholder with respect to any thereof, the entry of

any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of such Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes: (a) any right

to require the Noteholder’s Representative, the Noteholders or the Issuer (each, a “Benefited Party”) to proceed against the Issuer or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by a Benefited Party

at any time or to pursue any other remedy in any secured party’s power before proceeding against such Guarantor; (b) any defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any other Person or

Persons or the failure of a Benefited Party to file or enforce a claim against the estate (in administration, bankruptcy or any other proceeding) of any other Person or Persons; (c) demand, protest and notice of any kind (except as expressly

required by these Terms and Conditions), including but not limited to notice of the existence, creation or incurring of any new or additional indebtedness or obligation or of any action or non-action on the

part of such Guarantor, the Issuer, any Benefited Party,

any creditor of such Guarantor or the Issuer or on the part of any other Person whomsoever in connection with any obligations the performance of which are hereby guaranteed; (d) any defense

based upon an election of remedies by a Benefited Party, including but not limited to an election to proceed against such Guarantor for reimbursement; (e) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a

surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (f) any defense arising because of a Benefited Party’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Law, of the

application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (g) any defense based on any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Guarantor hereby covenants that, except as otherwise

provided therein, its Guarantee shall not be discharged except by payment in full of all Guarantee Obligations, including the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the notes and all other costs provided for under these Terms and

Conditions.

(f)

If any Noteholder or the Noteholders’ Representative is required by any court or otherwise to return to

either the Issuer or the Guarantors, or any trustee or similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by the Issuer or the Guarantors to the Noteholders’ Representative or such Noteholder, the

Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Noteholders in respect of any Guarantee Obligations

hereby until payment in full of all such obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Noteholders and the Noteholders’ Representative, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the

obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Condition 14 (Events of Default) hereof for the purposes hereof, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the

Guarantee Obligations, and (y) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Condition 14 (Events of Default) hereof, such Guarantee Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and

payable by such Guarantor for the purpose of the Guarantee.

Interest and Paying Convention

(a)

Interest on the 2029 notes, the 2032 notes and the 2036 notes will accrue at the rates of 1.6803%, 2.0600% and

2.4150% per year, respectively, in each case from and including October 6, 2026 or the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or provided for, and will be payable annually in arrears on: (i) October 8 of

each year, beginning on October 8, 2027 for the 2029 notes, (ii) October 6 of each year, beginning on October 6, 2027 for the 2032 notes, and (iii) October 6 of each year, beginning on October 6, 2027 for the 2036

notes. The interest so payable will be paid to each Noteholder holding the notes in a securities account (Effektenkonto) which is in their name, or in case of intermediaries (Verwahrungsstellen), the intermediaries holding the notes

for their own account in a securities account which is in their name at the close of business on the day that is one Business Day immediately preceding the applicable interest payment date. If any interest payment date, stated maturity date,

redemption date or repurchase date is not a Business Day, the payment otherwise required to be made on such date will be made on the next Business Day without any additional payment as a result of such delay.

(b)

The amount of interest payable in respect of each note for any Interest Period shall be calculated by applying

the interest rate to the principal amount of such note and rounding the resulting figure to the nearest cent (half a cent being rounded upwards). Interest will be computed on the basis of twelve 30-day months

of a 360-day year.

Where:

“Interest Period” means each period beginning on (and including) the Issue Date or any interest payment date and ending on

(but excluding) the next interest payment date.

(c)

If the Issuer redeems the notes in accordance with the terms of such notes, the Issuer shall pay accrued and

unpaid interest and premium, if any, to the holder that surrenders such notes for redemption. However, if a redemption falls after a record date and on or prior to the corresponding interest payment date, the Issuer shall pay the full amount of

accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any, due on such interest payment date to the holder of record at the close of business on the corresponding record date.

(d)

The amounts required for the payment of interest on the notes and the principal amount of the notes and any

other payments in cash to be made under these Terms and Conditions will be made available in good time in freely disposable CHF, which will be placed at the free disposal of the Principal Paying Agent in Switzerland. If the due date for any payment

by the Issuer falls on a day which is not a Business Day, the relevant payment will be made on the first Business Day following such due date. Noteholders will not be entitled to demand additional interest or any other payment in respect of such

delay.

(e)

Upon receipt of the funds in Switzerland and under the same conditions as received, the Principal Paying Agent

will arrange for payment to the Noteholders.

(f)

The Issuer undertakes that payments shall be made in freely disposable CHF without collection cost to the

Noteholders, and, unless otherwise provided for by applicable law, without any restrictions and whatever the circumstances may be, irrespective of nationality, residence or domicile of the Noteholders and without requiring any affidavit or the

fulfilment of any other formality, at the counters of the Principal Paying Agent.

(g)

The receipt by the Principal Paying Agent of funds in CHF in Switzerland from the Issuer or a Guarantor shall

release the Issuer from its obligations under the notes to the extent of amounts received by the Principal Paying Agent.

Maturity

The 2029 notes, 2032 notes and 2036 notes shall mature on October 8, 2029, October 6, 2032 and October 6, 2036, respectively,

and shall be paid against presentation and surrender thereof at the office of the Principal Paying Agent unless earlier redeemed by the Issuer at its option, in accordance with Condition 6 (Optional Redemption at the Election of the Issuer)

and Condition 7 (Redemption Upon Changes in Withholding Taxes) below. The notes will not be entitled to the benefits of, or be subject to, any sinking fund.

Status

The notes constitute direct, senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Issuer’s

other senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding.

The Guarantees constitute direct, senior unsecured

obligations of Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. and rank equally in right of payment with other senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty

Trust, L.P. and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. from time to time outstanding.

interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

(b)

At any time after the Issue Date and prior to the maturity date, the Issuer may redeem in whole, but not in

part, any series of notes then outstanding at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such series of notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption if seventy-five

(75) percent or more of the aggregate principal amount of such series of notes have been redeemed or purchased and cancelled at the time of such notice.

(c)

The Issuer shall give notice to the Noteholders of any optional redemption in accordance with Condition 17

(Notices), at least 15, but not more than 45, days before the redemption date. The notice of redemption shall specify, among other items, the redemption price and the principal amount of the notes held by such holder to be redeemed.

(d)

[Reserved]

(e)

If the Principal Paying Agent holds funds sufficient to pay the redemption price of the notes on the redemption

date, then on and after such date:

•

such notes will cease to be outstanding;

•

interest on such notes will cease to accrue; and

•

all rights of holders of such notes will terminate except the right to receive the redemption price.

Such will be the case whether or not book-entry transfer of the notes in book-entry form is made and whether or not the

notes are in certificated form, together with the necessary endorsements, are delivered to the Principal Paying Agent.

The Issuer shall

not redeem any series of notes on any date if the principal amount of such series of notes has been accelerated, and such an acceleration has not been rescinded or cured on or prior to such date.

Redemption Upon Changes in Withholding Taxes

(a)

If (i) as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated

thereunder) or treaties of the United States or the Netherlands (or, in each case, any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein having power to tax) (a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), or any change in, or

amendment to, any official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings (including by virtue of a holding, judgment or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in

published administrative practice), which change or amendment is announced as formally proposed on or after the date of this prospectus, the Issuer or any Guarantor becomes or will become obligated to pay additional amounts as described herein under

Condition 9 (Payment of Additional Amounts) or (ii) any act is taken by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on or after the date of this prospectus, whether or not such act is taken with respect to the Issuer or any affiliate, that results in

a substantial probability that the Issuer or any Guarantor will, or may, be required to pay such additional amounts, then the Issuer may, at its option, redeem the applicable series of notes, as a whole but not in part, upon not less than

15 days’ nor more than 45 days’ published notice in accordance with Condition 17 (Notices) below, at 100% of their principal amount, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption, if any;

provided that the Issuer determines, in its business judgment, that the obligation to pay such additional amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Issuer (which does not include substitution of the obligor or any

Guarantor under the notes).

(b)

For the purpose of the preceding clause, (A) changes or amendments announced as formally proposed on or

after the date of this prospectus shall be considered to include any changes of, or amendments to, the Withholding Tax Act 2021 (Wet bronbelasting 2021) in the form adopted by the Upper House of the Dutch Parliament on 17 December 2019

and any official interpretations, including any judgments or orders by a court of competent jurisdiction or published administrative practice or policy, deviating from, or putting administrative obligations on the Issuer that exceed, what follows

from the literal interpretation of this act, in each case if such change, amendment or interpretation is announced as formally proposed on or after the date of this prospectus and (B) any taxes levied from or assessed on the Issuer, or that the

Issuer is required to pay by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, under the Withholding Tax Act 2021 (Wet bronbelasting 2021) shall be considered as additional amounts except if and to the extent such tax is levied in respect of payments on

notes held by a holder or beneficiary (voordeelsgerechtigde) after the Issuer having become aware that such holder or beneficiary is related (gelieerd) to the Issuer for purposes of the Withholding Tax Act 2021 (Wet bronbelasting

2021).

(c)

No redemption pursuant to (i) or (ii) of Condition 7(a) above may be made unless the Issuer has received

an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that as a result of such change or amendment the Issuer will, or that an act taken by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction has resulted in a substantial probability that the Issuer or any Guarantor will, or

may, be required to pay the additional amounts described herein under Condition 9 (Payment of Additional Amounts), or the taxes referred to in the preceding sentence, and the Issuer shall have delivered to the Noteholders an officers’

certificate, stating that based on such opinion the Issuer is entitled to redeem the applicable series of notes pursuant to their terms. Any such officers’ certificate and opinion of counsel described in the preceding sentence shall be

accepted by the Noteholders as sufficient evidence of the existence and satisfaction of the conditions precedent as described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Noteholders.

Notice of Redemption

The Issuer shall publish a notice of any redemption of the applicable series of notes described above in accordance with Condition 17

(Notices).

Payment of Additional Amounts

(a)

All payments of principal and interest on the notes will be made free and clear of and without withholding or

deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge (collectively, “Taxes”) imposed by any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, unless the withholding of such Taxes is required by law or the

official interpretation or administration thereof. The Issuer will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment of the principal of and interest on the notes

to a holder who is not a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes, after deduction for any present or future Taxes of any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, imposed by withholding with respect to the payment, will not be less than the

amount such holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts shall not apply:

(1) to any Taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein having power

to tax);

(2) to any Taxes that are imposed or withheld by reason of the existence of any present or former connection

between the holder or beneficial owner of such note (or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of the holder if the holder is an estate, trust, partnership or corporation, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust

administered by a fiduciary holder) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (other than merely holding or being a beneficial owner of such note or the receipt or enforcement of payments or deliveries thereunder), including such holder or beneficial

owner being or having been organized or incorporated in, a national, domiciliary or resident, or treated as a resident, of, or being or having been physically present or engaged in a trade or business, or having had a permanent establishment, in,

such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction;

(3) to any holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the note, or a portion

thereof, or that is a fiduciary or partnership, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner or member of the partnership would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount

had the beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

(4) to any Taxes that are imposed or withheld solely by reason of the failure to (a) comply with certification,

identification or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction of, or other information relating to, the holder or beneficial owner of such note, if compliance

is required by the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction for not falling under the scope of such Taxes (including for purposes of the Withholding Tax Act 2021 (Wet Bronbelasting 2021)), or as a precondition to relief or exemption from such Taxes

(including the submission of an applicable IRS Form W-8 (with any required attachments)) or (b) comply with any information gathering and reporting requirements or to take any similar action (including

entering into any agreement with the IRS), in each case, that are required to obtain the maximum available exemption from withholding by a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction that is available to payments received by or on behalf of the holder;

(5) to any Taxes that are imposed otherwise than by withholding from the payment;

(6) to any Taxes that are imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial

interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;

(7) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth or personal property tax or a similar tax, assessment or

governmental charge;

(8) to any Taxes required to be withheld by any paying agent from any

payment of principal of or interest on any note, if such payment can be made without such withholding by any other paying agent;

(9) to any Taxes that are imposed or levied by reason of the presentation (where presentation is required in order to receive

payment) of such notes for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable, except to the extent that the holder or beneficial owner thereof would have been entitled to additional amounts had the

notes been presented for payment on any date during such 30 day period;

(10) to any backup withholding or any Taxes

imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation,

rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such sections of the Code; or

(11) to any Dutch withholding tax under the Withholding Tax Act 2021 (Wet bronbelasting 2021) imposed on a holder or,

where applicable, a beneficiary (voordeelsgerechtigde) of the notes for purposes of the Withholding Tax Act 2021 (Wet bronbelasting 2021) that is an entity that is related (gelieerd) to the Issuer within the meaning of the Withholding

Tax Act 2021 (Wet Bronbelasting 2021). An entity is considered related to the Issuer if (i) it directly or indirectly holds a Qualifying Interest (as defined below) in the Issuer, (ii) the Issuer directly or indirectly holds a

Qualifying Interest in the entity, or (iii) a third party or a Qualifying Unity directly or indirectly holds a Qualifying Interest in both the Issuer and the entity. The term “Qualifying Interest” means an interest that

allows the holder of the interest to individually – or jointly in the case of a Qualifying Unity – exert such a decisive influence on the Issuer’s decisions that such holder or such Qualifying Unity can determine the Issuer’s

activities (kwalificerend belang). The term “Qualifying Unity” means a cooperation between entities that has as the main purpose or one of the main purposes the avoidance of Dutch withholding tax levied pursuant to the Withholding

Tax Act 2021; or

(12) in the case of any combination of any items (1) through (11).

(b)

The notes are subject in all cases to any tax, fiscal or other law or regulation or administrative or judicial

interpretation applicable thereto. Except as specifically provided under this Condition 9 (Payment of Additional Amounts), the Issuer shall not be required to make any payment with respect to any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed

by any government or a political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein.

(c)

If the Issuer or any Guarantor, as the case may be, becomes aware that the Issuer or it, as applicable, will be

obligated to pay additional amounts with respect to any payment under or with respect to the notes or the Guarantees, the Issuer or the relevant Guarantor, as the case may be, will deliver to the Principal Paying Agent on a date that is at least 30

days prior to the date of that payment (unless the obligation to pay additional amounts arises less than 45 days prior to that payment date, in which case the Issuer or the Guarantor shall notify the Noteholders promptly thereafter) an

officers’ certificate stating the fact that additional amounts will be payable and the amount estimated to be so payable. The officers’ certificate must also set forth any other information reasonably requested by the Principal Paying

Agent to enable the Principal Paying Agent to pay such additional amounts to holders on the relevant payment date.

its Subsidiaries to, Incur any Indebtedness, other than Intercompany Indebtedness and guarantees of Indebtedness Incurred by Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or any of its Subsidiaries in compliance with these Terms and Conditions, if, immediately after

giving effect to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness and the application of the proceeds thereof, Total Outstanding Debt would be greater than 60% of Total Assets as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered in Digital Realty Trust, L.P.’s

annual or quarterly report most recently furnished to Noteholders or filed with the SEC, as the case may be.

retired at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during such period);

•

in the case of Acquired Indebtedness or Indebtedness Incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first

•

in the case of any acquisition or disposition of any asset or group of assets or the placement of any assets in

removal from service being included in that pro forma calculation.

Subsidiary of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. will be deemed to be Incurred by Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or such Subsidiary whenever Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect

Indebtedness being held by a Person other than Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or any Consolidated Subsidiary or any sale or other transfer of any Indebtedness constituting Intercompany Indebtedness to a Person that is not

Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or any Consolidated Subsidiary, will be deemed, in each case, to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness that is not Intercompany Indebtedness at the time of such issuance, transfer or sale, as the

case may be.

“Indebtedness” of a Person means, without duplication, any indebtedness of such Person, whether or not

contingent, in respect of: (a) borrowed money evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures or similar instruments whether or not such indebtedness is secured by any lien existing on property owned by such Person; (b) indebtedness for borrowed

money of a Person other than such Person which is secured by any lien on property owned by such Person, to the extent of the lesser of (i) the amount of indebtedness so secured, and (ii) the fair market value of the property subject to

Permitted Non-Recourse Guarantees of Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or any Subsidiary until such time as they become primary obligations of, and payments are due and required to be made

thereunder by, Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or any Subsidiary.

“Intercompany Indebtedness”

means Indebtedness to which the only parties are any of Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. and any Consolidated Subsidiary; provided, however, that with respect to any such Indebtedness of which Digital Constellation B.V.,

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. or Digital Realty Trust, L.P. is the borrower, such Indebtedness is subordinate in right of payment to the notes.

“Interest Expense” means, for any period of time, consolidated interest expense for such period of time, whether paid,

accrued or capitalized, without deduction of consolidated interest income, of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, including, without limitation or duplication, or, to the extent not so included, with the addition of

(a) the portion of any rental obligation in respect of any financing lease obligation allocable to interest expense in accordance with GAAP and (b) the amortization of Indebtedness discounts, but excluding prepayment penalties, in all

cases as reflected in the applicable Consolidated Financial Statements. “Interest Expense” will be calculated on a pro forma basis (x) for any Indebtedness Incurred by Digital Realty Trust, L.P. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries

since the first day of the applicable period and the application of proceeds therefrom and (y) for the repayment or retirement of any Indebtedness by Digital Realty Trust, L.P. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries since the first day of the

applicable period.

“Non-Recourse Indebtedness” means Indebtedness of a

Subsidiary of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (or an entity in which Digital Realty Trust, L.P. is the general partner or managing member) that is directly or indirectly secured by real estate assets or other real estate-related assets (including equity

interests) of a Subsidiary of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (or entity in which Digital Realty Trust, L.P. is the general partner or managing member) that is the borrower and is non-recourse to Digital Realty

Trust, L.P. or any Subsidiary of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (other than pursuant to a Permitted Non-Recourse Guarantee and other than with respect to the Subsidiary of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (or entity in

which Digital Realty Trust, L.P. is the general partner or managing member) that is the borrower); provided, further, that, if any such Indebtedness is partially recourse to Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or any Subsidiary of Digital Realty Trust, L.P.

(other than pursuant to a Permitted Non-Recourse Guarantee and other than with respect to the Subsidiary of Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (or entity in which Digital Realty Trust, L.P. is the general partner or

managing member) that is the borrower) and therefore does not meet the criteria set forth above, only the portion of such Indebtedness that does meet the criteria set forth above shall constitute

“Non-Recourse Indebtedness.”

“Noteholders’ Representative”

means UBS AG or its successor in its capacity as representative of the Noteholders as appointed in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. UBS AG is organized under the laws of Switzerland.

securities with readily determinable fair value shall not be covered by this proviso; provided, however, that such investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair value are not securing, or applied to defease or discharge, in each

case as of that date, any indebtedness, including mortgages and other notes payable).

Noteholders’ Representative or the Noteholders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes then outstanding, by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Noteholders’ Representative if given by the Noteholders), may

declare the principal amount of and premium, if any, and interest accrued and unpaid on all the notes of such series to be immediately due and payable, and upon any such declaration the same shall be immediately due and payable.

If an Event of Default specified in Condition 14(a)(v), Condition 14(a)(vi) and Condition 14(a)(vii) occurs with respect to the Issuer, the

principal amount of and premium, if any, and interest accrued and unpaid on all the notes of such series shall be immediately and automatically due and payable without necessity of further action.

(b)

If an Event of Default under these Terms and Conditions with respect to the notes of a particular series occurs

and is continuing (other than an Event of Default specified in the last bullet above, which shall result in an automatic acceleration), then, in every case, the Noteholders’ Representative or the holders of not less than 25% in principal

amount of the outstanding notes of such series may declare the principal amount of all of the notes of such series to be due and payable immediately by written notice thereof to

Digital Constellation B.V. (and to the Noteholders’ Representative if given by the holders). However, at any time after the declaration of acceleration with respect to the notes of such

series has been made, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Noteholders’ Representative, the holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding notes of such series may rescind and annul

the declaration and its consequences if:

(i)

the Issuer, Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P. or Digital Intrepid Holding B.V. shall have

deposited with the Principal Paying Agent all required payments of the principal of and interest and premium on the notes; and

(ii)

all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated

principal of (or specified portion thereof), or interest and premium on the notes of such series, have been cured or waived as provided in these Terms and Conditions.

(c)

At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the notes has been made and before a

judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Principal Paying Agent or the Noteholders’ Representative, the Noteholders holding not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes of a particular

series may, by written notice to the Issuer, with copy to the Principal Paying Agent, on behalf of all of the Noteholders, waive any and all past defaults with respect to the notes of such series and rescind and annul such declaration and its

consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of or interest, if any, on any note and in respect of a covenant or provision contained in these Terms and Conditions that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the

Noteholder of each outstanding note of such series affected thereby.

Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to

exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of these Terms and Conditions of the Notes, and the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Principal Paying Agent, and the Noteholders shall be restored to

their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

(d)

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes (or of all the notes then outstanding,

as the case may be) shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Noteholders’ Representative, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Noteholders’

Representative; provided, however that: (i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with these Terms and Conditions of the notes or the notes, (ii) the Noteholders’ Representative may take any other action

deemed proper by the Noteholders’ Representative which is not inconsistent with such direction, (iii) such direction is not unduly prejudicial to the rights of Noteholders not taking part in such direction and (iv) such direction

would not involve the Noteholders’ Representative in personal liability.

Digital Constellation B.V., H.J.E. Wenckebachweg 127, 1096 AM Amsterdam, the Netherlands (the Issuer)

owes to the bearer of this Permanent Global Certificate (Globalurkunde auf Dauer), upon presentation and surrender of this Permanent Global Certificate, the amount of CHF 225,000,000 (225,000,000 Swiss francs), plus interest at a rate of

1.6803 percent, in accordance with the Bond Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) and pursuant to the Terms and Conditions of the Notes (the Conditions of the Notes) included as Schedule II thereto, concluded as of October 2,

2026 between the Issuer, Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P., Digital Intrepid Holding B.V., UBS AG and Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft, acting through Deutsche Bank AG Zurich Branch. This Permanent Global Certificate has been

delivered as part of an arrangement that results in the issuance of a debt obligation in “registered form” for United States federal income tax purposes. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the terms ascribed to them

in the Conditions of the Notes.

Pursuant to the Paying Agency Agreement dated as of October 2, 2026, (the Paying Agency Agreement), among the

Issuer, Digital Realty Trust, Inc., Digital Realty Trust, L.P., Digital Intrepid Holding B.V., and UBS AG as principal paying agent (the Principal Paying Agent), the Principal Paying Agent undertakes to deposit this Permanent Global

Certificate for the entire duration of the Notes and until their complete redemption with SIX SIS Ltd, Baslerstrasse 100, CH-4600 Olten, Switzerland (hereinafter referred to as SIX SIS) as recognized

intermediary for such purposes by SIX Swiss Exchange Ltd except as provided in paragraph (c) of Condition 1 of the Conditions of the Notes.

Except

as provided in paragraph (c) of Condition 1 of Conditions of the Notes, once the Permanent Global Certificate is deposited with SIX SIS, the Notes shall constitute intermediated securities (Bucheffekten) in accordance with the provisions

of the Swiss Federal Intermediated Securities Act (Bucheffektengesetz) for the entire duration of the Notes. On behalf of the Issuer, SIX SIS shall maintain records of the number of Notes held through each participant in SIX SIS for the

entire duration of the Notes and until their complete redemption, except as provided in paragraph (c) of Condition 1, and the Notes may only be transferred by the entry of the transferred Notes in a securities account of the transferee.

The records of SIX SIS will determine the number of Notes held through each participant in SIX SIS. In respect of Notes held in the form of intermediated

securities the Holders will be the persons holding the Notes in a securities account (Effektenkonto).

Neither the Issuer nor the Holder shall at

any time have the right to effect or demand the conversion of the Permanent Global Certificate into, or the delivery of uncertificated securities (Wertrechte) or individually certificated securities (Wertpapiere).

To the extent that SIX SIS is no longer able act as depositary, the Principal Paying Agent, in consultation with the Issuer, will deposit the Notes with

another recognized depositary in accordance with the provisions of the Swiss Federal Intermediated Securities Act (Bucheffektengesetz) and such depositary shall be subject to all the obligations and requirements that apply to SIX SIS in

respect of the Notes.

Individually certificated securities shall be issued only when no such depositary can be procured, and if they are to be issued,

such securities will not be issued in bearer form, but exclusively in registered form such that the Notes qualify as being in “registered form” for United States federal income tax purposes whereby, inter alia, (i) the Noteholders

of the individually certificated securities shall be registered in a register (the Register) to be established and maintained by a registrar (the Registrar) appointed by the

Issuer and acting on its behalf after consultation with the Principal Paying Agent and duly notified to the Noteholders in accordance with the Conditions of the Notes, (ii) no transfer of

the individually certificated securities shall be valid unless and until entered into the Register and (iii) any other requirement is satisfied to ensure that the Notes are treated as issued exclusively in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed United States Treasury Regulations (or any successor

provisions). In the case Notes documented by individually certificated securities are delivered, the Permanent Global Certificate will immediately be cancelled by the Principal Paying Agent and the individually certificated securities shall be

delivered instead to the Holders, who for this purpose must be registered in the Register, against cancellation of the intermediated securities in their respective securities accounts. Notes documented by individually certificated securities shall

not be included in the records of SIX SIS or any other clearing system or any other intermediary and, therefore shall not constitute intermediated securities.

The registration of a new Holder by the Registrar will only occur upon presentation of the relevant individually certificated securities at the specified

office of the Registrar or the Principal Paying Agent. No transfer of such individually certificated securities will be valid unless and until entered into the Register. Individually certificated securities may be registered only in the name of and

transferred to a specified person. Only the duly registered Holder will be entitled to payments on the individually certificated securities.

This

Permanent Global Certificate, including any claim or controversy arising out of or related to this Permanent Global Certificate, shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Each of the Issuer and the Principal Paying Agent hereby

irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the Conditions of the Notes or the Notes.

The place of jurisdiction for any dispute, claim or controversy arising under, out of or in connection with or related to this Permanent Global Certificate

shall be the courts of the State of New York or the courts of the United States of America located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.

Capitalized terms and expressions not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Conditions of the Notes.

THIS NOTE AND ANY INTEREST HEREIN HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE U.S. SECURITIES

ACT), AND, ON OR PRIOR TO THE DATE (THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE) WHICH IS 40 DAYS AFTER THE LATER OF THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE OFFER OF THIS NOTE AND THE ISSUE DATE OF THE OFFER OF THIS NOTE (OR SUCH SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME

NEWS RELEASE

Digital Realty Announces Closing CHF510 Million of Swiss Bonds

AUSTIN, Texas – October 6, 2026 – Digital Realty (NYSE: DLR), a leading global provider of carrier- and

cloud-neutral data center, colocation and interconnection solutions, announced today that Digital Constellation B.V., an indirect wholly-owned finance subsidiary of the company’s operating partnership, Digital Realty Trust, L.P., has closed an

offering of CHF225 million of 1.6803% Swiss bonds due 2029 (the “2029 Swiss bonds”), CHF185 million of 2.0600% Swiss bonds due 2032 (the “2032 Swiss bonds”) and CHF100 million of 2.4150% Swiss bonds due 2036

(the “2036 Swiss bonds” and together with the 2029 Swiss bonds and the 2032 Swiss bonds, the “Swiss bonds”).

The Swiss bonds will

be senior unsecured obligations of Digital Constellation B.V. and will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the company, the operating partnership and Digital Intrepid Holding B.V., an indirect wholly-owned holding and finance subsidiary of

the operating partnership. Interest on the 2029 Swiss bonds will be payable annually in arrears at a rate of 1.6803% per annum from and including October 6, 2026, and the 2029 Swiss bonds will mature on October 8, 2029. Interest on the

2032 Swiss bonds will be payable annually in arrears at a rate of 2.0600% per annum from and including October 6, 2026, and the 2032 Swiss bonds will mature on October 6, 2032. Interest on the 2036 Swiss bonds will be payable annually in

arrears at a rate of 2.4150% per annum from and including October 6, 2026, and the 2036 Swiss bonds will mature on October 6, 2036.

The company

intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Swiss bonds to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from the offering of the Swiss bonds to finance or refinance, in part or in full, new and/or existing projects consistent with

Digital Realty’s Green Bond Framework, including the development and redevelopment of such projects. Pending the allocation of the net proceeds of the Swiss bonds to such projects, all or a portion of an amount equal to the net proceeds from

the Swiss bonds may be used to temporarily repay borrowings outstanding under the operating partnership’s global revolving credit facilities, acquire additional properties or businesses, fund development opportunities, invest in

interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities which are consistent with the company’s intention to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and to provide for working capital and other general corporate

purposes, including potentially for the repayment of other debt, or the redemption, repurchase, repayment or retirement of outstanding equity or debt securities, or a combination of the foregoing.

The Swiss bonds are being sold only outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Swiss bonds

have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to United States persons (within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act) absent registration or an applicable

exemption from registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Swiss bonds, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of the Swiss bonds in any jurisdiction in

which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains forward-looking statements which are based on current expectations, forecasts and assumptions that involve risks and uncertainties

that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially. For a list and description of such risks and uncertainties, see the company’s reports and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual

Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and

June 30, 2026. The company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Regulation S Statement

This communication is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy securities of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. or its subsidiaries. The securities

have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. Consequently, the securities may not be offered, sold, resold, transferred,

delivered or distributed, directly or indirectly, into or within the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in compliance with any applicable

securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. Any offering of the securities will be conducted pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.

Notice to European Economic Area Retail Investors

The

Swiss bonds are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and, with effect from such date, should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (the “EEA”).

For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the

meaning of Directive 2016/97/EU (as amended, the “IMD”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. No key information document required by Regulation (EU) No

1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling any in scope instrument or otherwise making such instruments available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared. Offering or selling the Swiss bonds or

otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. This communication has been prepared on the basis that any offers or sales of Swiss bonds in any Member State of the EEA will be made

pursuant to an exemption under Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended or superseded, the “Prospectus Regulation”) from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers or sales of Swiss bonds. This communication is not a prospectus for

the purposes of the Prospectus Regulation.

Notice to UK Retail Investors

This announcement is for distribution only to, and is directed at, persons who (i) have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling

within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as amended, the “Financial Promotion Order”), (ii) are persons falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) (“high net worth companies,

unincorporated associations, etc.”) of the Financial Promotion Order, (iii) are outside the United Kingdom, or (iv) are persons to whom an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of

the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) in connection with the issue or sale of any securities may otherwise lawfully be communicated or caused to be communicated (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”).

This announcement is directed only at relevant persons and must not be acted on or relied on by persons who are not relevant persons. Any investment or investment activity to which this announcement relates is available only to relevant persons and

will be engaged in only with relevant persons.

The Swiss bonds are not intended to be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to and

should not be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom. For these purposes, a “retail investor” means a person who is either one (or both) of the following): (i) not a

professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018; or (ii) not a qualified investor as defined in paragraph 15

of Schedule 1 to the Public Offers and Admissions to Trading Regulations 2024”. Consequently, no disclosure document required by the Financial Conduct Authority Product Disclosure Sourcebook for offering, selling or distributing the Swiss

bonds or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the U.K. has been prepared and therefore offering, selling or distributing the Swiss bonds or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the U.K. may be unlawful under

DISC and the Consumer Composite Investments (Designated Activities) Regulation 2024.
