DUPONT FABROS TECHNOLOGY, INC.

DUPONT FABROS TECHNOLOGY, L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2017

(unaudited)

1. Description of Business and Merger Agreement

DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc., or DFT, through its controlling interest in DuPont Fabros Technology, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership” or “OP” and collectively with DFT and their operating subsidiaries, the “Company”), is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed company that owns, acquires, develops and operates wholesale data centers. DFT is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes and is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, and as of June 30, 2017, owned 87.0% of the common economic interest in the Operating Partnership, of which 0.9% is held as general partnership units. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “our Company” or “the Company” refer to DFT and the Operating Partnership, collectively. As of June 30, 2017, we held a fee simple interest in the following properties:

 

    12 operating data centers – ACC2, ACC3, ACC4, ACC5, ACC6, ACC7, ACC9 Phase I, CH1, CH2, SC1 Phases I-II, VA3, and VA4;

 

    Six data center projects under development – ACC9 Phase II, ACC10 Phase I, CH3 Phases I and II, SC1 Phase III and TOR1 Phase IA;

 

    Three data center projects available for future development – ACC10 Phase II, TOR1 Phase IB/C and TOR1 Phase II; and

 

    Land that may be used to develop six additional data centers – ACC8, ACC11, OR1, OR2, PHX1 and PHX2.

On June 9, 2017, we and Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (“DLR”) announced that DFT, the OP, DLR, Digital Realty Trust, L.P., DLR’s operating partnership (“DLR OP”), and three other DLR subsidiaries entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the Merger Agreement:

 

    DFT will be merged with and into a DLR merger subsidiary and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of DLR (the “Company Merger”); and

 

    another DLR merger subsidiary will be merged with and into the OP, and the OP will become a subsidiary of DLR (the “Partnership Merger” and, together with the Company Merger, the “Mergers”).

Pursuant to the terms and conditions in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Mergers:

 

    each share of DFT’s common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.545 shares of DLR common stock;

 

    each common unit of partnership interests in the OP will be converted into the right to receive 0.545 common units in the DLR OP, or, in the alternative, each unit holder may elect to redeem his or her units and receive 0.545 shares of DLR common stock for each unit; and

 

    each share of DFT’s 6.625% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”) will be converted into the right to receive one share of a newly designated class of preferred stock of DLR, which will have substantially similar rights, privileges, preferences and interests as DFT’s Series C Preferred Stock.

The consummation of the Mergers is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including, among others, approval of the Company Merger by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock, approval of the issuance of DLR common stock in connection with the Company Merger by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of DLR common stock, the absence of certain legal impediments to the consummation of the Mergers, the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by DLR in connection with the Mergers, approval for listing on the New York Stock Exchange of the shares of DLR common stock to be issued in connection with the Company Merger, the absence of a material

adverse effect on either DLR or us and compliance by the DLR parties and us with each party’s respective obligations under the Merger Agreement. The obligations of the parties to consummate the Mergers are not subject to any financing condition or the receipt of any financing by the DLR parties. There can be no assurance that the proposed transaction will be consummated.

Generally, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be paid by the party incurring those fees and expenses. Additionally, upon termination of the Merger Agreement in certain circumstances, the Merger Agreement provides for the payment of a termination fee to DLR by DFT of $150.0 million. The Merger Agreement also provides for the payment of a termination fee to DFT by DLR of $300.0 million upon termination of the Merger Agreement in certain circumstances.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 of DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. and DuPont Fabros Technology, L.P. References to “DFT” mean DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. and its controlled subsidiaries; and references to the “Operating Partnership” or “OP” mean DuPont Fabros Technology, L.P. and its controlled subsidiaries.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of DFT and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:

 

    enhances investors’ understanding of DFT and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

 

    eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the disclosure in this report applies to both DFT and the Operating Partnership; and

 

    creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

We operate DFT and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of DFT consists of the same employees as the management of the Operating Partnership.

We believe it is important for investors to understand the few differences between DFT and the Operating Partnership in the context of how DFT and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. DFT is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of OP units of the Operating Partnership. As a result, DFT does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership. DFT has not issued any indebtedness, but has guaranteed all of the unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, holds all the real estate assets of the Company. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by DFT, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP units or preferred units, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by our business. These sources include the Operating Partnership’s operations, its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness, and the issuance of partnership units.

As sole general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, DFT consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes. The presentation of stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of DFT and those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership’s capital includes preferred units and general and limited common units that are owned by DFT and the other partners. DFT’s stockholders’ equity includes preferred stock, common stock, additional paid in capital, retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The common limited partnership interests held by the limited partners (other than DFT) in the Operating Partnership are presented as “redeemable partnership units” in the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements and as “redeemable noncontrolling interests-operating partnership” in DFT’s consolidated financial statements. The only difference between the assets and liabilities of DFT and the Operating Partnership as of June 30, 2017 was a $4.2 million bank account held by DFT that is not part of the Operating Partnership. Net income is the same for DFT and the Operating Partnership.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2016 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains a complete listing of our significant accounting policies.

We have one reportable segment consisting of investments in data centers located in the United States and Canada. All of our properties generate similar types of revenues and expenses related to customer rent and reimbursements and operating expenses. The delivery of our products is consistent across all properties and although services are provided to a range of customers, the types of services provided to them are limited to a few core principles. As such, the properties in our portfolio have similar economic characteristics and the nature of the products and services provided to our customers and the method to distribute such services are consistent throughout the portfolio.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Property

Depreciation on buildings is generally provided on a straight-line basis over 40 years from the date the buildings were placed in service. Building components are depreciated over the life of the respective improvement ranging from 10 to 40 years from the date the components were placed in service. Personal property is depreciated over three to seven years. Depreciation expense was $27.9 million and $25.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $55.0 million and $50.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

We review each of our properties for indicators of impairment. Examples of such indicators may include a significant decrease in the market price of the property, a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which the property is being used in its physical condition, a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a property, including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the development of a property, a history of operating or cash flow losses of the property or a current expectation that, more likely than not, a property will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. When such impairment indicators exist, we review an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to result from the real estate investment’s use and eventual disposition and compare that estimate to the carrying value of the property. We assess the recoverability of the carrying value of our assets on a property-by-property basis. We consider factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition, potential sales proceeds and other factors. If our undiscounted cash flow evaluation indicates that we are unable to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property. No impairment losses were recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

We classify a data center property as held-for-sale when it meets the necessary criteria, which include when we commit to and actively embark on a plan to sell the asset, the sale is expected to be completed within one year under terms usual and customary for such sales, and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Data center properties held-for-sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we did not have any properties classified as held-for-sale.

Deferred Costs

Deferred costs, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets include both financing and leasing costs.

Financing costs, which represent fees and other costs incurred in obtaining debt, are amortized using the effective-interest rate method, or a method that approximates the effective-interest method, over the term of the loan and are included in amortization of deferred financing costs.

Balances of financing costs for our unsecured revolving credit facility, or Unsecured Credit Facility, net of accumulated amortization, which are presented within deferred costs, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows (in thousands):

Leasing costs, which consist of external fees and costs incurred in the successful negotiation of leases, internal costs expended in the successful negotiation of leases and the estimated leasing commissions resulting from the allocation of the purchase price of ACC2, VA3, VA4 and ACC4, are deferred and amortized over the terms of the applicable leases on a straight-line basis. If an applicable lease terminates prior to the expiration of its initial term, the carrying amount of the leasing costs are written off to amortization expense. Leasing costs incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were as follows (in thousands):

 

     Three months ended June 30,      Six months ended June 30,

Inventory

We maintain fuel inventory for our generators, which is recorded at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fuel inventory was $4.3 million and $4.2 million, respectively, and is included in prepaid expenses and other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Rental Income

We, as a lessor, have retained substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership and account for our leases as operating leases. For lease agreements that provide for scheduled fixed and determinable rent increases, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable term of the lease, which commences when control of the space and critical power have been provided to the customer. If the lease contains an early termination clause with a penalty payment, we determine the lease termination date by evaluating whether the penalty reasonably assures that the lease will not be terminated early.

Straight-line rents receivable are included in deferred rent, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Lease inducements, which include cash payments to customers, are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the non-cancellable lease term. Lease inducements are included in prepaid expenses and other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Lease intangible assets and liabilities that have resulted from above-market and below-market leases that were acquired are amortized on a straight-line basis as decreases and increases, respectively, to rental revenue over the remaining non-cancellable term of the underlying leases. If a lease terminates prior to the expiration of its initial term, the unamortized portion of straight-line rents receivable, lease inducements and lease intangibles associated with that lease will be written off to rental revenue. Lease contracts above market value, net are included in prepaid expenses and other assets and lease contracts below market value, net are included in prepaid rents and other liabilities in the accompany consolidated balance sheets.

Our policy is to record an allowance for losses on accounts receivable equal to the estimated uncollectible accounts. The estimate is based on our historical experience and a review of the current status of our receivables. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had a note receivable from a former customer of $24.9 million and $25.0 million, respectively, which resulted from the settlement of our claim in this former customer’s bankruptcy proceedings in the fourth quarter of 2016. We are accounting for the note receivable on a non-accrual basis. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had an allowance for this note receivable of $23.6 million, leaving a note receivable, net balance of $1.3 million and $1.4 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which is included within rents and other receivables, net in our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Based on the principal payment schedule in the note that includes semiannual principal payments beginning in June 2017, which we received, we continue to be reasonably assured that we will be able to collect the balance of the net note receivable.

We also establish an appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts for receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents. These receivables arise from revenue recognized in excess of amounts currently due under the lease and are recorded as deferred rent in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had no material allowances.

Our customer leases generally contain provisions under which the customers reimburse us for a portion of operating expenses and real estate taxes incurred by the property. Recoveries from tenants are included in revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in the period the applicable expenditures are incurred. The majority of our customer leases also provide us with a property management fee based on a percentage of base rent collected and property-level operating expenses, other than charges for power used by customers to run their servers and cool their space. Property management fees are included in base rent in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in the applicable period in which they are earned.

Other Revenue

Other revenue primarily consists of services provided to customers on a non-recurring basis. This includes projects such as the purchase and installation of circuits, racks, circuit breakers and other customer requested items. Revenue is recognized on a completed contract basis when the project is finished and ready for the customer’s use. This method is consistently applied for all periods presented. Costs of providing these services are included in other expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership / Redeemable Partnership Units

Redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership, as presented on DFT’s consolidated balance sheets, represent the OP units held by individuals and entities other than DFT. These interests are also presented on the Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets, referred to as “redeemable partnership units.” Accordingly, the following discussion related to redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership of DFT refers equally to redeemable partnership units of the Operating Partnership.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership, which require cash payment, or allow settlement in shares, but with the ability to deliver the shares outside of the control of DFT, are reported outside of the permanent equity section of the consolidated balance sheets of DFT and the Operating Partnership. Redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership are adjusted for income, losses and distributions allocated to OP units not held by DFT (normal noncontrolling interest accounting amount). Adjustments to redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership are recorded to reflect increases or decreases in the ownership of the Operating Partnership by holders of OP units, including the redemptions of OP units for cash or in exchange for shares of DFT’s common stock. If such adjustments result in redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership being recorded at less than the redemption value of the OP units, redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership are further adjusted to their redemption value. See Note 6. Redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership are recorded at the greater of the normal noncontrolling interest accounting amount or redemption value. The following is a summary of activity for redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership for the six months ended June 30, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

Earnings Per Share of DFT

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common shares for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period using the two class method. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common shares for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the two class method.

Earnings Per Unit of the Operating Partnership

Basic earnings per unit is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common units for the period by the weighted average number of common units outstanding during the period using the two class method. Diluted earnings per unit is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common units for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the two class method.

Stock-based Compensation

We periodically award stock-based compensation to employees and members of our Board of Directors in the form of common stock, restricted common stock, options and performance units. For each common stock award granted by DFT, the OP issues an equivalent common unit, which may be referred to herein as a common share, common stock, or a common unit. We estimate the fair value of the awards and recognize this value over the requisite service period. The fair value of restricted stock-based compensation is based on the market value of DFT’s common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of options to purchase common stock is based on the Black-Scholes model. The fair value of performance units is based on a Monte Carlo simulation.

Foreign Currency

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of our consolidated operations in the United States. The functional currency of our consolidated entities outside of the United States is the principal currency of the economic environment in which the entity primarily generates and expends cash. We translate the financial statements of consolidated entities whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar into U.S. dollars. We translate assets and liabilities at the exchange rate in effect as of the financial statement date and translate income statement accounts using the weighted average exchange rate for the period. We include foreign currency translation adjustments and the effect of exchange rate changes on intercompany transactions of a long-term investment nature as a separate component of stockholders’ equity or partners’ capital. We report gains and losses from the effect of rate changes on intercompany receivables and payables that are not of a long-term investment nature, as well as gains and losses from remeasuring U.S. dollar transactions for non-U.S. functional currency entities, in other expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we had no material foreign currency transaction losses.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. We are required to apply the new standard in the first quarter of 2018 and expect to elect the modified retrospective method of application of the standard. Although the standard does not apply to leases, we have assessed the impact on our financial position and results of operations. The standard will change our method of recognizing revenue on service and installation contracts included in other revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations from the completed contract method to a method that recognizes revenue over the course of the contract based on the goods or services transferred to date relative to the remaining goods or services promised under the contract. We do not expect that this change will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. In addition, we currently do not believe the standard will have a material impact on how we recognize revenues from tenants with respect to operating expense recoveries on our financial position or results of operations.

Leases - In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 - Leases (Topic 842). We are required to apply the new standard in the first quarter of 2019. The Company’s leases consist of both lease components that will be accounted for under this standard and non-lease components such as operating expense recovery income that will be accounted for under ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The standard does not fundamentally change the lessor accounting model, and we do not believe that the new standard will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Financial Instruments - In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. Under this guidance, a company will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model for trade and other receivables that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. We are required to apply the new standard in the first quarter of 2020 and do not believe that the new standard will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Statement of Cash Flows - In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The standard provides guidance on eight specific cash flow classification issues including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. We are required to apply the new standard in the first quarter of 2018 and do not believe that the new standard will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Statement of Cash Flows - Restricted Cash - In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 (Topic 230), Restricted Cash. The standard requires restricted cash to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning and ending amounts in the statement of cash flows. We are required to apply the new standard in the first quarter of 2018 and do not believe that the new standard will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

18


Business Combinations - In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The standard narrows the existing definition of a business and provides a framework for evaluating whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition of assets or a business. The guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years. We early-adopted the standard effective January 1, 2017. As a result of this new guidance, acquisitions may now result in an asset purchase rather than a business combination. We do not believe that the new standard will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Outstanding Indebtedness

Unsecured Credit Facility and Unsecured Term Loan

On July 25, 2016, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) that includes the following:

 

    an unsecured revolving credit facility with a total commitment of $750 million (the “Unsecured Credit Facility”); and

 

    an unsecured term loan facility, which has a total commitment and amount outstanding of $250 million (the “Unsecured Term Loan”).

In November 2016, we added a Canadian dollar sublimit of up to $185 million (approximately CAD $250 million) to the Unsecured Credit Facility, which allows us to borrow in Canadian dollars to fund our TOR1 data center development in Vaughan, Ontario. In addition, the Canadian borrowings allow us to hedge our foreign currency investment risk by having these liabilities translate at the same exchange rates as our Canadian assets at the end of each period. To date, we have designated all of the Canadian borrowings on the Unsecured Credit Facility, which totaled CAD $105 million as of June 30, 2017, as a net investment hedge of our Canadian assets. For the effective portion of these net investment hedges, the currency translation effects of these borrowings are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders’ equity on our consolidated balance sheets, where they offset the currency translation effects of our investment in our Canadian assets. There has been no ineffectiveness for our net investment hedges to date as of June 30, 2017.

At our option, we may increase the total commitment under the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Unsecured Term Loan to $1.25 billion, if one or more lenders commit to being a lender for the additional amount and certain other customary conditions are met.

The obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by DFT and all of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries that currently guaranty the obligations under the Unsecured Notes due 2021, listed below. We may prepay the Unsecured Credit Facility and Unsecured Term Loan at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium.

 

20


The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires that DFT, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries comply with various covenants, including with respect to restrictions on liens, incurring indebtedness, making investments, effecting mergers and/or asset sales, and certain limits on dividend payments, distributions and purchases of DFT’s stock. In addition, the facility imposes financial maintenance covenants relating to, among other things, the following matters:

 

    unsecured debt not exceeding 60% of the value of unencumbered assets, subject to an increase to 65% following a material acquisition;

 

    net operating income generated from unencumbered properties divided by the amount of unsecured debt (net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents) being not less than 12.5%, subject to a decrease to not less than 10% following a material acquisition;

 

    total indebtedness not exceeding 60% of gross asset value, subject to an increase to 65% following a material acquisition;

 

    fixed charge coverage ratio being not less than 1.70 to 1.00; and

 

    tangible net worth being not less than $2.3 billion plus 75% of the sum of (i) net equity offering proceeds after July 25, 2016 (but excluding such net offering proceeds that are used within ninety (90) days following the consummation of the applicable equity offering for permitted equity redemptions) and (ii) the value of equity interests issued in connection with a contribution of assets to the Borrower or its subsidiaries; and

 

    until an investment grade unsecured debt credit rating has been achieved, unhedged variable rate debt not exceeding 30% of gross asset value.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Operating Partnership under the facility to be immediately due and payable.

We were in compliance with all covenants under the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Unsecured Term Loan as of June 30, 2017.

The Unsecured Credit Facility matures on July 25, 2020 and includes a one-year extension option, subject to the payment of an extension fee equal to 7.5 basis points on the total commitment in effect on such initial maturity date and certain other

customary conditions.

We may elect to have borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility bear interest at either LIBOR or a base rate, which is based on the lender’s prime rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. Prior to our receiving an investment grade credit rating, the applicable margin added to LIBOR and the base rate is based on the table below.

 

          Applicable Margin  

Pricing Level

  

Ratio of Total Indebtedness to Gross Asset Value

   LIBOR Rate Loans     Base Rate Loans

     1.95     0.95

Level 5

  

Greater than 52.5%

     2.15     1.15

The applicable margin is currently set at pricing Level 1. The terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility provide for the adjustment of the applicable margin from time to time according to the ratio of the Operating Partnership’s total indebtedness to gross asset value in effect from time to time.

Following the receipt of such investment grade rating, the terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility provide for the adjustment of the applicable margin from time to time according to the rating then in effect.

The amount available for borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility is determined according to a calculation comparing the value of certain unencumbered properties designated by the Operating Partnership at such time relative to the amount of the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt. Up to $35 million of the borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility may be used for letters of credit.

As of June 30, 2017, we had no letters of credit outstanding and borrowings of $336.0 million outstanding under this Unsecured Credit Facility.

The Unsecured Term Loan matures on January 21, 2022, with no extension option.

Under the terms of the Unsecured Term Loan, we may elect to have borrowings under the loan bear interest at either LIBOR or a base rate, which is based on the lender’s prime rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. Prior to our receiving an investment grade credit rating, the applicable margin added to LIBOR and the base rate is based on the table below.

ACC3 Term Loan

We have a $107.5 million term loan facility, the ACC3 Term Loan, that is secured by our ACC3 data center facility and an assignment of the lease agreement between us and the customer of ACC3. The borrower, one of our subsidiaries, may elect to have borrowings under the ACC3 Term Loan bear interest at (i) LIBOR plus 1.55% or (ii) a base rate, which is based on the lender’s prime rate, plus 0.55%. The interest rate is currently at LIBOR plus 1.55%. The ACC3 Term Loan matures on March 27, 2018, and we may prepay the ACC3 Term Loan at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium. The Operating Partnership has guaranteed the outstanding principal amount of the ACC3 Term Loan, plus interest and certain costs under the loan.

The ACC3 Term Loan imposes financial maintenance covenants relating to, among other things, the following matters:

 

    consolidated total indebtedness of the Operating Partnership not exceeding 60% of gross asset value of the Operating Partnership;

 

    fixed charge coverage ratio of the Operating Partnership being not less than 1.70 to 1.00;

 

    tangible net worth of the Operating Partnership being not less than $1.3 billion plus 80% of the sum of (i) net equity offering proceeds and (ii) the value of equity interests issued in connection with a contribution of assets to the Operating Partnership or its subsidiaries; and

 

    debt service coverage ratio of the borrower not less than 1.50 to 1.00.

We were in compliance with all of the covenants under the ACC3 Term Loan as of June 30, 2017.

Unsecured Notes due 2021

On September 24, 2013, the Operating Partnership completed the sale of $600 million of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2021, which we refer to as the Unsecured Notes due 2021. The Unsecured Notes due 2021 were issued at face value and mature on September 15, 2021. We pay interest on the Unsecured Notes due 2021 semi-annually, in arrears, on March 15th and September 15th of each year.

The Unsecured Notes due 2021 are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by DFT and certain of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries, including the subsidiaries that own the ACC2, ACC4, ACC5, ACC6, VA3, VA4, CH1 and SC1 data centers (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), but excluding the subsidiaries that own the ACC3, ACC7, ACC9, ACC10, CH2, CH3 and TOR1 data centers, the ACC8, ACC11, OR1, OR2, PHX1 and PHX2 parcels of land, our taxable REIT subsidiary, DF Technical Services LLC and our property management subsidiary, DF Property Management LLC.

The Unsecured Notes due 2021 rank (i) equally in right of payment with all of the Operating Partnership’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, (ii) senior in right of payment with all of its existing and future subordinated indebtedness, (iii) effectively subordinate to any of the Operating Partnership’s existing and future secured indebtedness and (iv) effectively junior to any liabilities of any subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership that do not guarantee the Unsecured Notes due 2021. The guarantees of the Unsecured Notes due 2021 by DFT and the Subsidiary Guarantors rank (i) equally in right of payment with such guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, (ii) senior in right of payment with all of such guarantor’s existing and future subordinated indebtedness and (iii) effectively subordinate to any of such guarantor’s existing and future secured indebtedness.

The Unsecured Notes due 2021 may be redeemed at the Operating Partnership’s option, in whole or in part, at any time, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing September 15 of the years indicated below, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption:

2019 and thereafter

     100.000

 

23


If there is a change of control (as defined in the indenture governing the Unsecured Notes due 2021) of the Operating Partnership or DFT, we must offer to purchase the Unsecured Notes due 2021 at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, in certain circumstances we may be required to use the net proceeds of asset sales to purchase a portion of the Unsecured Notes due 2021 at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Unsecured Notes due 2021 have certain covenants limiting the ability of or prohibiting the Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries from, among other things, (i) incurring secured or unsecured indebtedness, (ii) entering into sale and leaseback transactions, (iii) making certain dividend payments, distributions, purchases of DFT’s common stock and investments, (iv) entering into transactions with affiliates, (v) entering into agreements limiting the ability to make certain transfers and other payments from subsidiaries, (vi) engaging in sales of assets or (vii) engaging in certain mergers, consolidations or transfers/sales of all or substantially all assets. However, DFT may pay the minimum dividend necessary to meet its REIT income distribution requirements.

The Unsecured Notes due 2021 also require the Operating Partnership and the Subsidiary Guarantors to maintain total unencumbered assets of at least 150% of their unsecured debt on a consolidated basis. The Unsecured Notes due 2021 also have customary events of default, including, but not limited to, nonpayment, breach of covenants, and payment or acceleration defaults in certain other indebtedness of ours or certain of our subsidiaries. Upon an event of default, the holders of the Unsecured Notes due 2021 or the trustee may declare the Unsecured Notes due 2021 due and immediately payable. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Unsecured Notes due 2021 as of June 30, 2017.

Unsecured Notes due 2023

On June 9, 2015, the Operating Partnership completed the sale of $250 million of 5.625% senior unsecured notes due 2023, which we refer to as the Unsecured Notes due 2023. The Unsecured Notes due 2023 were issued at 99.205% of par and mature on June 15, 2023. We pay interest on the Unsecured Notes due 2023 semi-annually, in arrears, on June 15th and December 15th of each year.

The Unsecured Notes due 2023 are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by DFT and the same Subsidiary Guarantors as those that guarantee the Unsecured Notes due 2021.

The ranking of the Unsecured Notes due 2023 and the guarantees of these notes are the same as the ranking of the Unsecured Notes due 2021 and the guarantee of those notes.

At any time prior to June 15, 2018, the Operating Partnership may redeem the Unsecured Notes due 2023, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Unsecured Notes due 2023 to be redeemed, plus (ii) a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest. The Unsecured Notes due 2023 may be redeemed at the Operating Partnership’s option, in whole or in part, at any time, on and after June 15, 2018 at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing June 15 of the years indicated below, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption:

In addition, in certain circumstances we may be required to use the net proceeds of asset sales to purchase a portion of the Unsecured Notes due 2023 at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Unsecured Notes due 2023 have certain covenants limiting or prohibiting the ability of the Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries from, among other things, (i) incurring secured or unsecured indebtedness, (ii) entering into sale and leaseback transactions, (iii) making certain dividend payments, distributions, purchases of DFT’s common stock and investments, (iv) entering into transactions with affiliates, (v) entering into agreements limiting the ability to make certain transfers and other payments from subsidiaries, (vi) engaging in sales of assets or (vii) engaging in certain mergers, consolidations or transfers/sales of all or substantially all assets.

We were in compliance with all covenants under the Unsecured Notes due 2023 as of June 30, 2017.

Bridge Loan Commitment

On June 8, 2017, the Company and Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman Sachs”) entered into a commitment letter under which Goldman Sachs has committed to provide financing for working capital and certain other general corporate purposes to the Operating Partnership in the form of an unsecured bridge loan in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200 million (the “Bridge Facility”), subject to certain customary closing conditions, including entering into definitive loan documents for the Bridge Facility. Goldman Sachs’ commitment to provide the Bridge Facility will terminate on November 30, 2017 if the closing of the Bridge Facility does not occur prior to such date. In addition, the commitment letter appoints Goldman Sachs to act as sole lead arranger, sole bookrunner and sole syndication agent, and as administrative agent, in connection with the Bridge Facility. The Company has not notified Goldman Sachs of its intent to draw on the Bridge Facility.

The commitment letter also provides that amounts outstanding under the Bridge Facility would bear interest at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin of 150 basis points, which margin increases by an additional 50 basis points every three months following the date on which funds are drawn under the Bridge Facility. If the Company were to draw on the Bridge Facility, it would mature on the earlier of (a) the date on which the Mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement are consummated or (b) the date that is 364 days after the date of initial funding. Subject to exceptions to be agreed to in the definitive loan documents, proceeds from (i) the incurrence of indebtedness by us or any of our subsidiaries, (ii) the issuance of equity securities by the Company and (iii) non-ordinary course asset sales, including of any of our facilities, in each case, would be required to be used to prepay amounts outstanding under the Bridge Facility. Any outstanding amounts under the Bridge Facility would be guaranteed by the same Subsidiary Guarantors as those that guarantee the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Unsecured Notes due 2021 and the Unsecured Notes due 2023.

In addition, the commitment letter provides that the definitive loan documents will contain various covenants, including financial maintenance covenants, and events of defaults substantially similar to those contained in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company, the Operating Partnership, the directors and several affiliated entities, as well as Digital Realty and certain of its affiliates, have been named as defendants in one putative shareholder class action lawsuit, and the Company and the directors have been named as defendants in two additional putative shareholder class action lawsuits, filed in connection with the Mergers (collectively, the “Lawsuits”). The first case is styled Louis Scarantino v. DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:17-cv-01428 (D.D.C.) and was filed on July 18, 2017 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. The second case was styled William Lawrence v. DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. et al., Case No: 1:17-cv-02042 and was filed, incorrectly, on July 21, 2017 in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland. On July 24, 2017, that action was terminated and the complaint was re-filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and styled Lawrence v. DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc., Case No. 1:17-cv-1465 (D.D.C.). The third case is styled Daniel Canchola v. DuPont Fabros Technology, Inc. et al., Case No: 1:17-cv-01481 (D.D.C.) and was filed on July 24, 2017 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. The Lawsuits allege violations of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) arising in connection with the filing of DLR’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) that was filed in connection with the proposed Mergers. The plaintiffs in the Lawsuits seek, among other things, damages, an order enjoining consummation of the Mergers, changes to the Registration Statement, an award of attorney’s fees and declaratory relief stating that the defendants violated the Exchange Act.

The Company disputes the allegations raised in the Lawsuits and will vigorously defend the Company, the Operating Partnership, the directors and related defendants.

Further, we are involved from time to time in various other legal proceedings, lawsuits, examinations by various tax authorities and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. We currently believe that the resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Contracts related to the development of the ACC9 Phases I-II, SC1 Phase III, CH3 Phases I-II, ACC10 Phase I and TOR1 Phase IA data centers were in place as of June 30, 2017. These contracts are cost-plus in nature whereby the contract sum is the aggregate of the contractor’s cost to perform the work and to purchase the equipment plus a contractor fee. Control estimates, which are adjusted from time to time to reflect any contract changes, are estimates of the total contract cost at completion. As of June 30, 2017, the control estimates were as follows for our projects under development:

 

    ACC9 Phase I: $168.4 million, of which $164.9 million has been incurred, and an additional $1.3 million has been committed under this contract.

 

    ACC9 Phase II: $63.9 million, of which $50.5 million has been incurred, and an additional $5.7 million has been committed under this contract.

 

    SC1 Phase III: $150.6 million, of which $135.4 million has been incurred, and an additional $15.2 million has been committed under this contract.

 

    CH3 Phase I: $187.9 million, of which $103.6 million has been incurred, and an additional $66.5 million has been committed under this contract.

 

    CH3 Phase II: $54.7 million, of which $1.3 million has been incurred, and an additional $29.5 million has been committed under this contract.

 

    ACC10 Phase I: $159.1 million, of which $20.4 million has been incurred, and an additional $53.5 million has been committed under this contract.

 

    TOR1 Phase IA: $154.8 million, of which $46.9 million has been incurred, and an additional $55.4 million has been committed under this contract.

Concurrent with DFT’s October 2007 initial public offering, we entered into tax protection agreements with some of the contributors of the initial properties including our Chairman of the Board and our former CEO. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, we must provide an opportunity for certain contributors of the initial properties to guarantee a secured loan and, if we fail to do so, we could be liable for protection on the taxes related to approximately $104 million (unaudited) of remaining minimum liability. The amount of our liability for protection on taxes could be based on the highest federal, state and local capital gains tax rates of the applicable contributor. Any sale by the Company that requires payments to any of DFT’s executive officers or directors pursuant to these agreements requires the approval of at least 75% of the disinterested members of DFT’s Board of Directors.

6. Redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership / Redeemable partnership units

Redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership, as presented in DFT’s accompanying consolidated balance sheets, represent the OP units held by individuals and entities other than DFT. These interests are also presented in the Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets, referred to as “redeemable partnership units.” Accordingly, the following discussion related to redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership of DFT refers equally to redeemable partnership units of the Operating Partnership.

The redemption value of redeemable noncontrolling interests – operating partnership as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $714.5 million and $591.1 million, respectively, based on the closing share price of DFT’s common stock of $61.16 and $43.93, respectively, on those dates.

Holders of OP units are entitled to receive distributions in a per unit amount equal to the per share dividends made with respect to each share of DFT’s common stock, if and when DFT’s Board of Directors declares such a dividend. Holders of OP units have the right to tender their units for redemption, in an amount equal to the fair market value of DFT’s common stock.

 

27


DFT may elect to redeem tendered OP units for cash or for shares of DFT’s common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, OP unitholders redeemed a total of 1,773,147 OP units in exchange for an equal number of shares of common stock. See Note 2.

7. Preferred Stock

Series C Preferred Stock

In May 2016, DFT issued 8,050,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock for $201.3 million in an underwritten public offering that resulted in proceeds to the Company, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering costs of $194.3 million. The liquidation preference on the Series C Preferred Stock is $25 per share and dividends are scheduled quarterly. For each share of Series C Preferred Stock issued by DFT, the Operating Partnership issued a preferred unit equivalent to DFT with the same terms.

In 2017, DFT declared the following cash dividends on its Series C Preferred Stock, of which the OP will pay or has paid an equivalent distribution on its preferred units:

 

    $0.4140625 per share payable to stockholders of record as of February 1, 2017. This dividend was paid on February 15, 2017.

 

    $0.4140625 per share payable to stockholders of record as of May 1, 2017. This dividend was paid on May 15, 2017.

 

    $0.4140625 per share payable to stockholders of record as of August 1, 2017. This dividend is scheduled to be paid on August 15, 2017.

Except in instances relating to preservation of our qualification as a REIT or in connection with our special optional redemption right discussed below, our Series C Preferred Stock is not redeemable prior to May 15, 2021. On and after May 15, 2021, we may, at our option, redeem our Series C Preferred Stock, in whole, at any time, or in part, from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of $25 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared) to, but not including, the date of redemption.

Upon the occurrence of a change of control, we have a special optional redemption right that enables us to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock within 120 days after the first date on which a change of control has occurred resulting in neither DFT nor the surviving entity having a class of common shares listed on the NYSE, NYSE MKT, or NASDAQ. For this special redemption right, the redemption price is $25 per share in cash, plus accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared) to, but not including, the redemption date. Based on the terms of the pending Merger with DLR, we do not believe this redemption right will be exercised.

Upon the occurrence of a change of control that results in neither DFT nor the surviving entity having a class of common shares listed on the NYSE, NYSE MKT, or NASDAQ, the holder will have the right (subject to our special optional redemption right to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock) to convert some or all of the Series C Preferred Stock into a number of shares of DFT’s common stock equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the sum of (x) $25, plus (y) an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends, whether or not declared to, but not including, the date of conversion (unless the date of conversion is after a record date for a Series C Preferred Stock dividend payment and prior to the corresponding Series C Preferred Stock dividend payment date, in which case no additional amount for such accrued and unpaid dividend will be included in this quotient), by (ii) the price of DFT’s common stock, and (B) 1.1723 (the Share Cap), subject to certain adjustments and provisions for the receipt of alternative consideration of equivalent value.

8. Stockholders’ Equity of DFT and Partners’ Capital of the OP

In 2017, DFT declared and paid the following cash dividends per share on its common stock, of which the OP paid equivalent distributions on OP units:

 

    $0.50 per share payable to stockholders of record as of April 3, 2017. This dividend was paid on April 17, 2017.

 

    $0.50 per share payable to stockholders of record as of July 3, 2017. This dividend was paid on July 17, 2017.

9. Equity Compensation Plan

In June 2017, our amended and restated 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Amended Plan”) became effective following receipt of approval from our stockholders. The 2011 Amended Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. The 2011 Amended Plan allows us to provide equity-based compensation to our personnel and directors in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based awards, unrestricted stock, long term incentive units, or LTIP units, and other awards.

The 2011 Amended Plan authorizes a maximum aggregate of 9,000,000 share equivalents be reserved for future issuances. In addition, under the 2011 Amended Plan, shares of common stock that are subject to awards of options or stock appreciation rights will be counted against the 2011 Amended Plan share limit as one share for every one share subject to the award. Any shares of stock that are subject to awards other than options or stock appreciation rights shall be counted against the 2011 Amended Plan share limit as 5.39 shares for every one share subject to the award.

As of June 30, 2017, 56,520 share equivalents were issued under the 2011 Amended Plan, and the maximum aggregate amount of share equivalents remaining available for future issuance was 8,943,480.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we issued 174,319 shares of restricted stock, which had an aggregate value of $8.3 million on the grant date. This amount will be amortized to expense over the respective vesting periods, which are between three and five years. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2017, 123,606 shares of restricted stock vested at a value of $6.3 million on the respective vesting dates.

As of June 30, 2017, total unearned compensation on restricted stock was $11.2 million, and the weighted average vesting period was 1.8 years. In accordance with the terms of each of the restricted stock award agreements, all unvested restricted stock will vest at the closing of the Company Merger.

Stock Options

Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing market price of DFT’s common stock at the date of grant and vest over specified periods of time as long as the employee remains employed with the Company. All shares to be issued upon option exercises will be newly issued shares and the options have 10-year contractual terms. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, no options were granted to employees. The last grant of stock options occurred in 2013, and all stock option grants have fully vested.

Performance Units

Performance unit awards are awarded to certain executive employees and have a three calendar-year performance period with no dividend rights. Performance units will be settled in common shares following the performance period as long as the employee remains employed with us on the vesting date, which is the March 1st date following the last day of the applicable performance period. Performance units are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation and are amortized over the approximate three-year vesting period from the grant date to the vesting date.

One-half of the recipient’s performance unit award is dependent on DFT’s total stockholder return compared to the MSCI US REIT index over the three calendar-year performance period. The other half of the performance unit award is dependent on DFT’s total stockholder return compared to an index of five comparable publicly traded data center companies over the three calendar-year performance period. For each half of the performance unit awards granted, the number of common shares that are ultimately settled could range from 0% to 300%.

For the performance units granted in 2014, based on DFT’s total stockholder return compared to the MSCI US REIT index return for half of the grant and an index of five comparable publicly traded data center companies for the other half of the grant for the period from January 1, 2014 to January 1, 2017, 57,177 common shares were issued upon their vesting on March 1, 2017, which represents an aggregate payout of 150%.

12. Fair Value

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

The authoritative guidance issued by the FASB requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value estimates are subjective in nature and are dependent on a number of important assumptions, including estimates of future cash flows, risks, discount rates, and relevant comparable market information associated with each financial instrument. The use of different market assumptions and estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the reported estimated fair value amounts. Accordingly, the amounts are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we would realize in a current market exchange.

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair value amounts and disclosures for financial instruments as of June 30, 2017:

 

    Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments (i.e., less than 90 days).

 

32


    Rents and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and prepaid rents: The carrying amount of these assets and liabilities reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these amounts.

 

    Debt: The combined balance of the Unsecured Notes due 2021, Unsecured Notes due 2023, Unsecured Term Loan, Unsecured Credit Facility and ACC3 Term Loan, excluding the effect of deferred financing costs, was $1,541.9 million with a fair value of $1,573.8 million. The Unsecured Notes due 2021 and the Unsecured Notes due 2023 were valued based on Level 2 data which consisted of a quoted price from Bloomberg. The Unsecured Term Loan, the US dollar-denominated borrowings under the Unsecured Credit facility and ACC3 Term Loan were valued based on Level 3 data which consisted of a one-month LIBOR swap rate coterminous with the maturity of each loan plus a spread consistent with current market conditions. The Canadian dollar-denominated borrowings under the Unsecured Credit facility were valued based on Level 3 data which consisted of a one-month Canadian Dollar Offered Rate swap rate coterminous with the maturity of the Unsecured Credit Facility plus a spread consistent with current market conditions.

13. Supplemental Consolidating Financial Data for Subsidiary Guarantors of the Unsecured Notes

The Unsecured Notes due 2021 and the Unsecured Notes due 2023 are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by DFT and certain of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries, including the subsidiaries that own the ACC2, ACC4, ACC5, ACC6, VA3, VA4, CH1 and SC1 data centers (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), but excluding the subsidiaries that own the ACC3, ACC7, ACC9, ACC10, CH2, CH3 and TOR1 data centers, the ACC8, ACC11, OR1, OR2, PHX1 and PHX2 parcels of land, our taxable REIT subsidiary, DF Technical Services LLC and our property management subsidiary, DF Property Management LLC. The following consolidating financial information sets forth the financial position as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 of the Operating Partnership, Subsidiary Guarantors and the Subsidiary Non-Guarantors.
