Explanatory Note

Equinix, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment (this “Amendment”) on Form 8-K/A, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 13, 2024 (the “Original Report”). The Original Report was filed to report that Scott Crenshaw, the Company’s Executive Vice President and General Manager, Digital Services, would separate from his employment with the Company. The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose, in accordance with Item 5.02 of Form 8-K, the date of separation and the terms and conditions of the separation agreement that the Company entered into with Mr. Crenshaw, which had not been finalized at the time of filing of the Original Report.


Item 5.02.Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Mr. Crenshaw’s employment with the Company ceased effective as of September 26, 2024. In connection with the termination of Mr. Crenshaw’s employment, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release of Claims (the “Agreement”) with Mr. Crenshaw on October 2, 2024. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, subject to a customary release of claims, Mr. Crenshaw will receive the compensation and benefits described in the Agreement, which include: (i) an amount equal to one year of his base salary, to be paid in a one-time lump sum cash payment of $450,000; (ii) an amount equal to 100% of his target annual incentive plan bonus for 2024, to be paid in a one-time lump sum cash payment of $405,000; (iii) vesting of the performance-based RSU awards granted to Mr. Crenshaw on February 14, 2023, relating to the Company’s achievement of revenue, AFFO-per-share and digital services revenue goals, pro-rated for the portion of the 2024 calendar year occurring through September 20, 2024; (iv) vesting of the performance-based RSU awards granted to Mr. Crenshaw on March 7, 2024, relating to the Company’s achievement of revenue and AFFO-per-share goals, which award will vest based upon the Company’s actual performance, pro-rated for the portion of the 2024 calendar year occurring through September 20, 2024; (v) vesting of the time-based RSU awards granted to Mr. Crenshaw on February 14, 2023 and March 7, 2024, pro-rated for the portion of the 2024 calendar year occurring through September 20, 2024; and (vi) reimbursement of the portion of the premiums for continued coverage under the Company’s group health plans for Mr. Crenshaw and his eligible dependents that exceeds the employee portion of such premiums for 12 months. Mr. Crenshaw is required to continue to comply with the nonsolicitation, nondisparagement and cooperation obligations set forth in his Change in Control Severance Agreement with the Company.

The foregoing description is not a complete description of the Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which will be filed with the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.
