Letter from the Managing Director and Chairman
18 March 2022
For personal use only
Dear Member
I invite you to attend a meeting of the Members (the "Meeting") of Global Data Centre Group (ASX: GDC), the stapled entity comprising Global Data Centre Investment Fund (ARSN 635 566 531) and Global Data Centre Operations Fund (ARSN 638 320 420) (the "Group").
The Meeting will be held at 10.00am (AEDT) on Wednesday, 13 April 2022.
The health and safety of our Members and personnel is the highest priority. Due to the COVID-19 situation remaining uncertain, the decision has been made to conduct the Meeting virtually by way of live video conference. There will be no physical meeting for Members to attend.
At the Meeting there will be resolutions for Members to consider relating to the following matters:
- the refresh of the Group's placement capacity following the placement of approximately 9.8 million fully paid stapled units in the Group at a price of $1.93 ("Placement"), to new and existing institutional, sophisticated, and professional investor; and
- the replacement of 360 Capital FM Limited as responsible entity of the Group with Evolution Trustees Limited, together the "Resolutions".
As the Group is a stapled entity between Global Data Centre Investment Fund and Global Data Centre Operations Fund, two separate resolutions are required for the replacement of 360 Capital FM Limited with Evolution Trustees Limited.
Rationale for the Resolutions
Refresh of Placement Capacity
Approving a resolution to refresh the Group's placement capacity means that those stapled units that were issued under the Placement would not reduce the number of stapled units that could be issued by the Group without Member approval under Listing Rule 7.1. This will refresh the Group's capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1. Approval of this resolution will also have the effect of increasing the base number of stapled units from which a further 15% calculation will be made if the Group determines to make another Placement.
The issue of the stapled units under the Placement provides growth capital to support the Group's pipeline of M&A opportunities and strategic investment initiatives. As the Group continues to actively seek acquisition opportunities which complement its investment strategy and existing portfolio, refreshing its placement capacity gives the Group the flexibility to raise additional funds to meet such opportunities by issuing up to a further 15% stapled units.
Replacement of Responsible Entity
On the 18 August 2021, 360 Capital Group (ASX:TGP) announced that it was commencing a sale process in relation to its co-investment and management rights in relation to its digital infrastructure assets, including in relation to the Group having received numerous approaches by parties interested in acquiring its various interests.
On 7 September 2021, 360 Capital Group confirmed that it has sold its 33.2% stake in the Group.

For personal use only
360 Capital FM Limited, the responsible entity of the Group, is a member of the 360 Capital Group and so, given the sale of the 360 Capital Group stake in the Group and the sale of 50% of the investment management, Lanrik Partners Pty Ltd (formerly 360 Capital Digital Management Pty Limited) ("Manager"), to joint venture partner David Yuile (and associates), the Board of 360 Capital FM Limited wishes to retire and make a phased withdrawal from the management and business of the Group in a timely and controlled manner.
In making this decision, management has explored various options for the Group in terms of appointing a new responsible entity and following an evaluation of all potential partners is seeking to replace 360 Capital FM Limited with Evolution Trustees Limited.
Further details of the Resolutions and information in relation to Evolution Trustees Limited are provided in the Notice of Meeting and Explanatory Memorandum.
