AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: DLR), (“Digital Realty”), the largest global provider of cloud- and carrier-neutral data center, colocation, and interconnection solutions, today announced that its subsidiary, Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (“Digital Realty L.P.”), intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of exchangeable senior notes due 2029 (the “notes”) in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Digital Realty will fully and unconditionally guarantee the notes on a senior, unsecured basis. Digital Realty L.P. also expects to grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement within a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $150,000,000 principal amount of notes.

The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Digital Realty L.P., will accrue interest payable semi-annually in arrears and will mature on November 15, 2029, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or exchanged. Noteholders will have the right to exchange their notes in certain circumstances and during specified periods. Digital Realty L.P. will settle exchanges in cash and, if applicable, shares of Digital Realty’s common stock.

The notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at Digital Realty L.P.’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after November 22, 2027 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of Digital Realty’s common stock exceeds 130% of the exchange price for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “fundamental change” occur, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require Digital Realty L.P. to repurchase their notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.

The notes will be entitled to the benefits of a registration rights agreement pursuant to which Digital Realty will agree to register, under the Securities Act, the resale of the shares of Digital Realty’s common stock, if any, issuable upon exchange of the notes within specified time periods and subject to certain limitations.

The interest rate, initial exchange rate and other terms of the notes will be determined at the pricing of the offering.

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

The offer and sale of the notes, the guarantee and any shares of Digital Realty’s common stock issuable upon exchange of the notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other securities laws, and the notes and any such shares cannot be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. Although Digital Realty L.P. and Digital Realty intend to enter into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which Digital Realty will agree to register, under the Securities Act, the resale of the shares of Digital Realty’s common stock, if any, issuable upon exchange of the notes, the registration rights agreement will contain significant limitations, and a resale registration statement may not be available at the time investors wish to resell the shares of Digital Realty’s common stock, if any, issuable upon exchange of their notes. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the notes or any shares of Digital Realty’s common stock issuable upon exchange of the notes, nor will there be any sale of the notes or any such shares, in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful.

The companies expand partnership to enhance genetic variant interpretation for cancers and rare diseases

BOSTON and ROLLE, Switzerland , Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — SOPHiA GENETICS (Nasdaq: SOPH), a cloud-native healthcare technology leader in data-driven medicine, today announced the next step in the partnership between the Company and Genomenon, a leading genomic intelligence company, to support better, data-driven outcomes in the rare disease and oncology fields. The two companies have expanded the integration of Genomenon’s Mastermind® Genomic Intelligence Platform into SOPHiA GENETICS’ Alamut™ Visual Plus, to empower researchers and clinical geneticists with a solution that helps accelerate variant interpretation for rare disorders.

Time is crucial in gathering actionable insights for rare diseases and cancers due to the complexity and unknown elements of their genetic underpinnings. Identifying these variants often involves navigating limited literature and sparse data, as many rare disorders lack comprehensive studies. Delays in finding relevant information can hinder accurate analysis and interpretation of genomic variants. Many rare conditions have no cure, and easy access to relevant, comprehensive and well-organized information can help accelerate insights and health decisions.

Alamut™ Visual Plus is an advanced decision-support tool for the exploration, annotation, and interpretation of genetic variants from next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. Genomenon’s Mastermind® Genomic Intelligence Platform provides comprehensive curated evidence for genomic data, as well an indexed content from more than 10 million full-text articles. The integration of the two tools significantly enhances variant curation and interpretation by connecting the Alamut™ Visual Plus comprehensive, full genome browser for variant interpretation to a vast library of scientific research, offering critical insights even for rare variants with limited existing research. This partnership will prove especially valuable in such cases where findings from only a single study globally might be available that hold the key to understanding a variant’s pathogenicity. By offering immediate access to a broad spectrum of indexed data and curated genomic insights, researchers and clinicians can more efficiently assess the pathogenicity of variants, enabling them to make informed decisions with greater confidence.

“We are excited to expand our work with Genomenon and provide our customers the opportunity to access world-class tools like Mastermind® through our technology platform.” said Ross Muken, President, SOPHiA GENETICS. “This partnership simultaneously benefits our customers, who will gain a more comprehensive understanding of detected variants in a seamless, single platform, while providing Genomenon the opportunity to broaden its reach through our unmatched global network.”

“Collaborating with SOPHiA GENETICS allows us to provide geneticists and researchers with the most comprehensive and up-to-date genomic research available as they review patient data in Alamut,” said Mike Klein, CEO of Genomenon. “The links to Mastermind® from Alamut will put curated genomic data and the most recent research on every variant at the fingertips of clinicians assure patient diagnoses are informed by the most recent scientific findings in a single, complete workflow.”
