| Item 1.02 | Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement |
On February 29, 2008, Equinix, Inc. (“Equinix”) terminated its Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated August 10, 2006, with Silicon Valley Bank and General Electric Capital Corporation, pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Agreement. The Agreement allowed for the issuance of letters of credit (in addition to revolving borrowings) and allowed for borrowing availability of up to $75.0 million provided certain liquidity and leverage conditions were met. At the time of termination, and for at least the last 12 months, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Agreement and all outstanding letters of credit, totaling $12.5 million, will be cash collateralized. No termination penalties were incurred by Equinix as a result of the termination.
The termination of the Agreement will not impact Equinix’s expansion plans as a drawdown under this Agreement was not anticipated under its current operating plan. Equinix anticipates it will replace this line of credit during 2008.
