As a result of our various IBX data center developments, as of December 31, 2025, we were contractually committed for unaccrued capital expenditures, primarily for real estate purchases, IBX infrastructure equipment not yet delivered and labor not yet provided. We also had numerous other, non-capital purchase commitments in place as of December 31, 2025, such as commitments to purchase power in select locations through 2026 and thereafter, and other open purchase orders for goods or services to be delivered or provided during 2026 and thereafter. Certain of our multi-year commitments to purchase power are subject to variable pricing or do not specify a fixed or minimum volume commitment. Due to the indeterminable nature of the spend under these commitments, they are not included in the amounts below.

We estimate our exposure on certain liabilities, such as indirect and property taxes, based on the best information available at the time of determination. With respect to real and personal property taxes, we record what we can reasonably estimate based on prior payment history, assessed value by the assessor's office, current landlord estimates or estimates based on current or changing fixed asset values in each specific municipality, as applicable. However, there are circumstances beyond our control whereby the underlying value of the property or basis for which the tax is calculated on the property may change, such as a landlord selling the underlying property of one of our IBX data center leases or a municipality changing the assessment value in a jurisdiction and, as a result, our property tax obligations may vary from period to period. Based upon the most current facts and circumstances, we make the necessary property tax accruals for each of our reporting periods. However, revisions

Our indirect and property tax filings in various jurisdictions are subject to examination by local tax authorities. Although we believe that we have adequately assessed and accounted for our potential tax liabilities, and that our tax estimates are reasonable, there can be no certainty that additional taxes will not be due upon audit of our tax returns or as a result of further changes to the tax laws and interpretations thereof. For example, we are currently undergoing several indirect tax audits and appealing tentative assessments in Brazil and Loudoun County, Virginia. The final settlement of the audits and the outcomes of the appeals are uncertain and may not be resolved in our favor. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations and appeals that would affect the adequacy of our tax accruals for each of the reporting periods. If any issues arising from the tax examinations and appeals are resolved in a manner inconsistent with our expectations, the revision of the estimates of the potential or actual liabilities could materially impact our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

We are and may continue to be party to certain legal and regulatory proceedings with respect to various matters. We evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome of all legal and regulatory proceedings to which we are a party. Contingent liabilities are accrued when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. These judgments are subjective based on the status of the legal or regulatory proceedings, the merits of our defenses and consultation with in-house and external legal counsel. Loss contingencies are generally recorded in other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and legal costs are expensed as incurred and are recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

On March 20, 2024, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California ("NDCA"). On April 30, 2024, the Company received a subpoena from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Thereafter, the Company responded to additional information requests by the SEC on the same or related issues. On November 19, 2025, the Company received correspondence from the SEC indicating that the agency had concluded its investigation and does not intend to recommend an enforcement action. The Company also does not expect any further related action from the NDCA.

On May 2, 2024, a putative stockholder class action was filed against the Company and certain of our officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The named plaintiff alleges violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-5, and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, on the basis that the defendants allegedly made false and misleading statements about our business, results, internal controls, and accounting practices between May 3, 2019 and March 24, 2024. The lawsuit seeks, among other relief, a determination that the alleged claims may be asserted on a class-wide basis, unspecified damages, attorneys' fees, other expenses and costs. We filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit on October 10, 2024. The motion was granted in part on January 6, 2025. On July 15, 2025, the parties entered a Stipulation of Settlement to resolve the action. The Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement on September 4, 2025. The Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement on September 4, 2025, and final approval of the settlement on December 19, 2025. The case was dismissed with prejudice on December 19, 2025, and the settlement was covered entirely by our insurance.

On February 14, 2025, and February 26, 2025, respectively, certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers were named as defendants in two shareholder derivative lawsuits (in which the Company is a nominal defendant) filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The lawsuits alleged, among other things, violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate assets and generally alleged the same purported misconduct as alleged in the putative stockholder class action described above. The lawsuits sought, among other relief, unspecified damages, restitution, attorneys’ fees, and other expenses and costs. On April 17, 2025, and April 18, 2025, respectively, the plaintiffs filed notices of voluntary dismissal without prejudice, subject to court approval, to pursue remedies under Delaware law. The cases were dismissed on April 28, 2025 and August 19, 2025, respectively.

On August 6, 2025, certain of the Company's current and former directors and officers were named as defendants in an additional shareholder derivative lawsuit (in which the Company is a nominal defendant) filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The lawsuit makes generally the same types of allegations and seeks the same types of relief as the derivative lawsuits above, and makes additional allegations

We have entered into a severance agreement with certain of our executive officers that provides for a severance payment equal to 100% of the executive officer's annual base salary and target bonus in the event his or her employment is terminated for any reason other than cause or he or she voluntarily resigns under certain circumstances as described in the agreement, or 200% of the executive officer's annual base salary and target bonus in the event this occurs after a change-in-control of our company. For certain other executive officers, these benefits are only triggered after a change-in-control of our company, in which case the officer is entitled to 200% of the executive officer's annual base salary and maximum bonus. In addition, under these agreements, the executive officer is entitled to the payment of his or her monthly health care premiums under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act for up to 24 months.

As permitted under Delaware law, we have agreements whereby we indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was serving, at our request in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer's or director's lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, in the event of a legal action, we have purchased insurance that could limit our exposure, depending upon the details of the claim and the coverage provided. As a result, our estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. We have no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of December 31, 2025.

We enter into standard indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these agreements, we may agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, generally a business partner or a customer, in connection with matters such as any U.S. patent, or any copyright or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to our offerings; a breach of confidentiality obligations and certain other contractual warranties; our gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, misrepresentation, or violation of law; and/or if we cause tangible property damage, personal injury or death. The term of any such indemnification agreement is generally perpetual after execution of the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, we have never incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. In addition, in the event of a legal action, we have purchased insurance that could limit our exposure, depending upon the details of the claim and the coverage provided. As a result, our estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. We do not have significant liabilities recorded for these agreements as of December 31, 2025.

We enter into arrangements with certain business partners, whereby the business partner agrees to provide services as a subcontractor for our installations. Accordingly, we enter into standard indemnification agreements with our customers, whereby we indemnify them for certain acts, such as personal property damage, by our subcontractors. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, we have never incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. In addition, in the event of a legal action, we have purchased insurance that could limit our exposure, depending upon the details of the claim and the coverage provided. As a result, our estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. We do not have significant liabilities recorded for these agreements as of December 31, 2025.

We have service level commitment obligations to certain of our customers. As a result, service interruptions or significant equipment damage in our IBX data centers, whether or not within our control, could result in obligations to these customers. While we have purchased insurance that could limit our exposure, our liability insurance may not be adequate to cover those expenses. In addition, any loss of service, equipment damage or inability to meet our service level commitment obligations could reduce the confidence our customers have in us, and could consequently impair our ability to obtain and retain customers, which would adversely affect both our ability to generate revenues and our operating results. We generally have the ability to determine such service level credits prior to the associated revenue being recognized. We do not have significant liabilities in connection with service level credits as of December 31, 2025.

Concurrent with the closing of the EMEA 2 Joint Venture, the EMEA 2 Joint Venture entered into a credit facility agreement with a group of lenders under which it could borrow up to approximately $1.1 billion in total at the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2025, with such facility maturing in 2026. In connection with our 20% equity investment in the EMEA 2 Joint Venture, we provided the lenders with a guarantee covering 20% of all payments of principal and interest due and payable by the EMEA 2 Joint Venture under the credit facility, up to a limit of $235 million in total at the exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the maximum potential amount of our future payments under this guarantee was approximately $41 million at the exchange rates in effect on that date. We and our co-investor entered into an ancillary agreement to allocate funding under the credit facility agreement for use by our AMER 1 Joint Venture. As of December 31, 2025, $11 million of the guarantee related to the AMER 1 Joint Venture. Our estimated fair value of this guarantee is minimal as the likelihood of making a payout under the guarantee is remote.
