As announced on September 4, 2012, Equinix plans to sell 16 International Business Exchange data centers (the “16 Data Centers”) located throughout the United States to an investment group consisting of 365 Main, Crosslink Capital and Housatonic Partners in a transaction valued at approximately $75 million. After the close of the transaction, 365 Main will own and manage the 16 Data Centers, led by industry veterans Chris Dolan, CEO, and Jamie McGrath, COO. With the announcement of this transaction, the financial results derived from these 16 Data Centers will be excluded from Equinix’s continuing operations for the quarter and will be reflected as discontinued operations. As a result, Equinix will retroactively adjust its financial results for all applicable prior periods beginning April 30, 2010, the date the company acquired these assets, to reflect them as discontinued operations as required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The transaction is expected to close in Q4 2012, subject to customary closing conditions. However, there can be no assurances that the transaction will close in Q4 2012, or at all.
