Tom Ray, CoreSite’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “During the fourth quarter we made measurable progress across key objectives. We executed strong sales across our customer verticals and platform, signing new and expansion agreements for turn-key data center (“TKD”) capacity reflecting $8.4 million in annualized GAAP rent plus a pre lease to construct a powered-shell building on our Santa Clara campus. While we typically do not enter into large powered-shell leases, we were pleased to leverage off of an existing land holding to serve a strategic customer and further strengthen our Santa Clara campus as a key North American network and cloud hub.”
