Equinix Acquires New Data Center

FOSTER CITY, Calif. -- Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX), the leading provider of network-neutral data centers and Internet exchange services, today announced that it has added a second Internet Business Exchange (IBX®) data center to its Tokyo presence, resulting from the acquisition of a long-term building lease and the purchase of assets from VSNL International. Equinix entered into an agreement to purchase the VSNL International leasehold improvements for $7.5 million and will lease the building from the current landlord. In addition, the company will provide colocation services to VSNL International in this center. This transaction allows Equinix to expand its capacity in a market where it has operated since 2003 in response to strong customer growth. As a result of this acquisition, Equinix will incur incremental costs attributed to this transaction, and given the recent sale of the Honolulu IBX, Equinix has updated guidance for the year ending December 31, 2007.

The data center, located in the Tokyo Metropolitan area, will add approximately 740 sellable cabinets and approximately 73,000 square feet, increasing Equinix’s Tokyo footprint to approximately 116,000 square feet. Equinix intends to place new customers in the center during the fourth quarter of 2007.
