Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Digital AG真人官方ty Trust, Inc. (DLR) filed a Form 4 reporting that Director VeraLinn Jamieson acquired 143 Long-Term Incentive Units (profits-interest units) on 06/30/2025. These derivative securities were received under transaction code A (grant/acquisition) at an exercise price of $0. Following the award, the director now directly holds 12,797 LTIP units.

Each LTIP unit is convertible on a 1-for-1 basis into common limited partnership units of Digital AG真人官方ty Trust, L.P. (鈥淐ommon Units鈥�) once vesting and parity conditions are met. Common Units are, in turn, redeemable for cash equal to the fair-market value of one share of DLR common stock, or鈥攁t the issuer鈥檚 discretion鈥攆or one share of common stock. No common stock was sold; the filing solely reflects an equity incentive grant, resulting in no immediate cash outlay and negligible dilution to existing shareholders.

The transaction is routine for board compensation and does not materially alter the company鈥檚 capital structure or insider ownership profile.

Insights

TL;DR: Routine 143-unit equity grant; immaterial to valuation.

The Form 4 shows Jamieson added 143 LTIP units鈥攔oughly 0.001% of DLR鈥檚 ~380 million fully diluted share equivalent鈥攂ringing her derivative tally to 12,797 units. The grant has no strike price, so there is no cash cost to the director and minimal dilution to shareholders. Such equity awards are standard components of director compensation and align insider incentives with long-term shareholder value. From a valuation or liquidity standpoint, the filing is non-material, offering neither bullish nor bearish signal.

TL;DR: Governance-aligned incentive; neutral market impact.

The award reinforces best-practice governance by compensating outside directors with performance-linked LTIP units rather than cash. Because units vest only after specific hurdles and convert 1-for-1 into partnership units, the structure encourages long-term oversight. However, given the small size and absence of disposals, investors should view this as routine board remuneration, not an indicator of management sentiment or operational change.

Explanation of Responses:

1. Long-Term Incentive Units are profits interest units in Digital AG真人官方ty Trust, L.P. ("Operating Partnership"), of which the Issuer is the general partner. Profits interest units may initially not have full parity with common limited partnership units of Operating Partnership ("Common Units") with respect to liquidating distributions; however upon the occurrence of specified events, profits interest units may achieve full parity with Common Units for all purposes. Vested profits interest units that have achieved full parity with Common Units may be converted into an equal number of Common Units on a 1-for-1 basis at any time. Common Units are redeemable for cash based on the FMV of an equivalent number of shares of common stock of the Issuer, or, at the election of the Issuer, for an equal number of shares of the Issuer's common stock, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, issuance of stock rights, specified extraordinary distributions or similar events.
