INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

This Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 2014 (the “Original Schedule TO” and together with Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule TO and Amendment No. 2 to the Original Schedule TO, the “Schedule TO”) by Digital Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Guarantor”) and Digital Realty Trust, L.P. (the “Company”).

The Schedule TO relates to the right of each holder (each a “Holder”) of the Company’s 5.50% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2029 (the “Debentures”) to sell and the obligation of the Company to purchase the Debentures, as set forth in the Company’s Issuer Repurchase Notice to Holders of 5.50% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2029, dated March 17, 2014, as amended (the “Issuer Repurchase Notice”). The right of a Holder to sell and the obligation of the Company to purchase the Debentures, as described in the Issuer Repurchase Notice, is referred to as the “Put Option.”

This Amendment No. 3 constitutes the final amendment pursuant to Rule 13e-4(c)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The Put Option expired at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on Friday, April 11, 2014. Based on final information provided to the Company by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the trustee and paying agent, no Debentures were tendered and accepted for purchase in the Put Option.
