Firm Strategy: eig seeks to generate “alpha” focusing on fundamental characteristics of companies through a combina-tion of intensive research, deep diligence and strategic thinking designed to identify financial instruments with asymmet-ric risk/reward profiles over varying investment horizons. Elmrox pursues an intensive “private equity-like” research pro-cess that involves in-depth primary research through extensive diligence. This process emphasizes long-term structural business characteristics of companies rather than short-term data points and market “noise.” The typical characteristics of companies that are expected to comprise the fund’s “long” portfolio include, but are not limited to, some or all of the following: sustainable business models with competitive barriers; predictable and repeatable revenue streams with high returns on invested capital; management teams and culture focused on innovation and on having the best people; high quality boards with significant equity ownership stakes; asset and operational transformations not fully perceived; mis-understood balance sheets; growth companies with long-term earnings prospects and attractive reinvestment econom-ics; significant change in capital allocation policies that are shareholder friendly; downside protection from asset value, private market value and/or sustainable cash flow; and significant variant views between market estimates and eig’s own estimates.

Variant Perception
• Consensus does not appreciate the structural barriers colocation providers in Europe beneOit from • Market concerns comparing worsening competitive environment in North America to Europe are misplaced • DeOlationary price competition concerns in Europe are exaggerated (this is an issue speciOic to North America) • Deceleration of global data center growth rates are short-‐term in nature relative to long-‐term secular trends • Market especially underappreciates INXN’s unique access to scarce physical Oiber placements • Investors often confuse data centers like INXN with managed service providers (managed services are INXN customers; colocation companies like INXN are beneOiciaries of heightened competition in managed services)
• Recurring revenue should re-‐accelerate in 2014 as utilization rate from recent expansion ramps • Consensus does not assume likely expansion into high growth and under-‐supplied markets (LatAm / Eastern Europe) • Long-‐term operating leverage in business model underestimated by market • Cash Olow generation improvement potential misunderstood • Valuation does not reOlect strong and recurring steady state cash Olow • Low leverage on balance sheet = potential for additional shareholder value creation • Shareholder concerns related to Baker Capital’s ownership stake and Board seats already priced in • High strategic value / replacement value create margin of safety

• Typical Customer Functions:
- Servers and storage equipment that run application software and process and store data and content
- A simple cage or rack of equipment - A room housing a few or many cabinets, depending on the scale of the customer’s operation
• A data center space will typically have a raised Oloor with cabling ducts running underneath to feed power to the cabinets and carry the cables that connect the cabinets together
• The environment is generally controlled in terms of temperature & humidity both to ensure the performance and the operational integrity of the systems within
• Facilities usually include power supplies and access to signiOicant external sources of power, backup power, chillers, Oire and water detection systems, cabling, and security controls
What is a Data Center?
A data center is a dedicated space that houses technology infrastructure.
Sources: Company data and company website.
8
Types of Data Centers
Data centers can be in-‐house, located in a company’s own facility, or outsourced with equipment being colocated at a third-‐party site.
A colocation provider (like INXN) versus wholesaler is a critical distinction.
Sources: Company website and Focus Telecom’s “Colocation and Managed Hosting Report”. (1) 451 Research’s North American Multi-‐Tenant data center Supply Emerging Major Markets 2012” report.
Colocation / Retail Colocation
• Provides customers physical space for a customer’s internet-‐ focused technology infrastructure
• Provides power and cooling necessary to maintain infrastructure at high levels of performance and without interruption
• Given the proprietary nature of colocation activities, provides security, both at the facility level and within the facility at the suite, cage, or cabinet level.
• Sold on the basis of individual racks, cabinets, or cages; usually range 500 to 5,000 square feet
Wholesale Providers
• Provides leasable large space to large enterprises and commercial colocation providers
• Customers engineer their own data centers within facilities
• Large enterprises share cost of the land and the facility shell, power, and external security
• Facilities typically are large buildings (at 100,000 square feet plus) that are divided into private pods or cells; frequently are located near large cities
• Usually sold in pods or cells (empty rooms); typically range from 10,000 to 50,000 square feet
• Colocation data center is different from wholesale in that colocation customers do not provide their own infrastructure beyond servers, storage, and switch gear
• “best way to think of wholesale data centers is ‘data center space for rent.’… similar to leasing an ofOice or warehouse where the landlord provides facility maintenance”(1)
• Colocations have high value customer communities/ecosystems
• Given the large space requirements geography is often a barrier/hindrance for wholesalers to enter certain markets especially Europe
Differences
9
Carrier-‐neutral data center: • Is independent of the companies colocating in the data center (does not compete with them in any way) • Offers no packaged services and customers are free to contract directly with the internet providers of their choice • Result: wide range of connectivity and communication providers are attracted into INXN facilities; creates widest
choice of Oixed and mobile carriers, ISPs, Internet exchanges, content distribution networks (CDNs) and others, all competing to deliver the best connectivity performance, service and price for their applications and content
Cloud-‐neutral data center: • Is independent of any hardware or software vendors and IT service providers, traditional or cloud-‐based • As a result of not competing with cloud service providers, these Oirms are attracted to INXN’s wide range of
connectivity providers that its hosts • Result: INXN data centers are home to a wide range of IT service providers, including: public and private cloud
platform providers, system integrators, managed hosting providers, software-‐as-‐a-‐service providers, providers of data and information services to speciOic industries, and providers of IT security, business continuity and consultancy services
Combined result: INXN’s data centers effectively constitute a marketplace within a highly connected environment. Providers within INXN data centers competing for customer business and give customers the choice and Olexibility to choose the right service providers at the right price. Since customers are all in the same place, each one can interconnect quickly and easily with low-‐latency Cross Connects that improve the speed, Olexibility, cost reduction

What is a carrier-‐neutral data center and a cloud-‐neutral data center?
Sources: Company data and company website.
Interxion is carrier-‐neutral and cloud-‐neutral.
10
• Connectivity and communities of interest
• Cost efOiciencies, lowers latency and augments performance
- Third party data centers allow a Oirm to pay for the space it needs and scale only as required. The costs of security and data center technology are shared with other colocation partners, while costs are further reduced by innovations in efOiciency, such as advanced power management.
• 24 hour monitoring and maintenance by highly trained technicians
• Wide range of power management
• Cost effective cooling; Oire detection & suppression
• Multiple layers of security to protect customer data
• Additional services including systems monitoring, systems management, engineering support services, data back-‐up and storage
Why Outsource to a Data Center?
Carrier-‐neutral data centers give customers access to wide range of connectivity providers; the customer selects the right connectivity for
multiple carriers to build in redundancy, ensure resilience, reduce costs.
Source: Company data.
A neutral data center is independent of any network, hardware or software vendor and attracts customers wanting access to this ecosystem.
11
Why Invest in Data Centers?
• Demand driven by long-‐term, secular mega-‐trends in early innings
• Consistent, predictable revenues and cash Olow
• Strong, sustainable margins with high incremental margins ~80% (depending on facility)
• SigniOicant hurdles for new entrants
• High value proposition with Olywheel of network effects that is difOicult to displace

• Demand for data • Cloud computing • Mobile content • Shift to online video • E-‐Commerce • Social • Regulatory Driven • Software as Service (SaaS) • Hosting
• Highly specialized expertise required
• Specialized sites required (prime locations, power, Oiber connectivity)
• SigniOicant costs for development (land, base building, infrastructure)
• Communities of interest attract and retain customers
• Customer ecosystems attracts other customers wanting access to this cultivated community of media and content providers, enterprises, carriers, et all in one place
• Communities of interest take many years to build
• Magnetic customers cannot be re-‐created
• Proximity to business partners difOicult to replicate
Powerful Secular Growth Drivers

Why Invest in European Data Centers?
The European data center market has sustainable moats that insulate existing players like INXN from the increasing competitive forces that threaten the North American market.
Sources: BroadGroup “Western European data centre research” 2012, Tier 1 Research, Multi-‐Tenant data center Global Providers 2012. Cisco VNI Report, 2013, Cisco GCI Report, 2012.
European data center market has unique and signiVicant barriers to entry = no new Pan-‐European entry in the last 10 years.
Key Differentiators Europe North America Total Fixed Internet Users in 2016 319 million 269 million Mobile Connected Devices vs. Total Network Devices in 2016 39% 28% Mobile Data TrafOic in 2016 2.4EB 2.0EB Growth in Internet TrafOic (‘11-‐’16 CAGR) 27% 22% Cloud TrafOic Growth (‘11-‐’16 CAGR) 44% 34%
• Limited availability of prime space, limited access to signiOicant power sources, and limited access to critical underground telco Oiber connections have and continue to protect European market
• North American dynamics have led to intensifying competition: availability of space and power, new entrants, extra capacity, pricing pressure and augmented competition from wholesalers

In Europe “Vinding a suitable site is hard, then convincing the local power company to provide enough power for a small town is a challenge. Getting all the requisite permits can take years. This is before taking into account the
difViculty convincing carriers to connect to the facility.” (1)
“It is unlikely that larger American-‐style data centers will become the norm [in Europe] due to localized space and power constraints.” (2)
14
Barriers to Entry are Highest in Europe
• Cloud computing market is highly fragmented and localized creating signiOicantly higher barriers to entry than U.S. - The absence of a single European hosting market contributes to this situation: each European country has its
own – often highly fragmented – market. Despite similar customer requirements, there are signiOicant local differences, including market size, cultural background and IT buying behavior
- The fragmented European market is characterized by a large number of players relative to market size, mostly with a relatively low number of customers
- Addressing the cloud opportunity requires hosters to make a signiOicant investment in technology and service innovation, but not many companies have been able to do so over the past few years
“Barriers to entry…as high in our business as it's always been. I don't see any new entrants. We're not seeing the wholesale guys nipping at our
heels on the retail side like they are in the United states.”(1)

Europe Should Remain Tight Given Moats
The carrier-‐neutral colocation market in Europe remains constrained.

(2) European weighted average utilization rate is calculated as year-‐end revenue generating space as a percentage of total year-‐end equipped space for the aggregate Oigure of Interxion, Telecity and Equinix EMEA. (3) The Jones Long LaSalle Data Centre Barometer, Spring 2013, Issue 10.
• Major players remain disciplined
- Introductions of new supply largely demand driven (including INXN)
• Utilization remains tight in high 70s / low 80s
“The prevailing view amongst our IT service providers, hosting and colocation operators [in Europe] is one of rising demand against a diminishing supply.”(3)

• INXN’s data centers have become critical exchange points for Internet and data trafOic in across Europe as well as a gateway into and out of Europe
• INXN’s exchange points attract enterprises, media and content providers, IT services providers and other groups wanting to access these diverse networks and other enterprises in a single location versus connecting these parties in multiple locations
• This high level of connectivity fosters the development of value-‐added communities of interest within each customer segments
• These communities of interest create virtuous circle by then attracting additional carriers and customers which makes them increasingly more valuable
Location & Scale in Europe Matters
Data centers located near key business hubs, interconnection points of telecom Viber routes, and power sources provide customers with
high levels of connectivity and the requisite power to meet their needs.
“Barrier to entry… if you want to build a carrier-‐rich data center environment, it's almost impossible to replicate. If you've got a 10-‐year roadmap, then maybe. And the reason for that is because between '97 and 2002, the carriers in Europe built their network and their network backbones into data centers, like Interxion, and they're not going to be doing it again in a hurry. That's the fundamental basis of the moat that is around our business.”(1)

Competitive Advantages & Moats
SigniVicant barriers to entry exist in the European data center market.
ü Largest pan-‐European footprint
ü Hosts 19 of Europe’s internet exchanges
ü Premium location spaces
ü Unique access to mission critical power sources
Leading Economies of Scale
High Switching Costs
High Barriers to Entry
ü Communities of interest cannot be replicated
ü Carrier-‐ and cloud-‐ neutrality
ü Magnetic customers cannot be re-‐created
ü Proximity to business partners difOicult to replicate
ü Scarcity of adequate locations
ü Long lead time to build carrier critical mass (10 to 15 years)
ü Design and permitting expertise
ü No new Pan-‐European entry in the last 10 years in data centers
In Europe “Vinding a suitable site is hard, then convincing the local power company to provide enough power for a small town is a challenge.
Getting all the requisite permits can take years. This is before taking into account the difViculty convincing carriers to connect to the facility.” (1)

Capital Allocation
“The target…generate returns 30% to 40% on capital that you invest.”(1)
• New projects have highly attractive return proOiles: management typically will only do deals with a minimum 30% IRR generally over 10 years
• Management focus on reinvesting cash Olow into the business for growth
“For the next couple of years, the best return of the capital that we currently have…is to build data centers or to buy an opportunity.”(1)

Intense Focus on New Customers
“Ecosystems such as Interxion's are increasingly important to Vinancial service providers looking to expand… allow them to connect with current
and potential customers, secure a variety of services to meet the requirements and growing demands of customers.”(1)
(1) 451 Research Market Insight on August 4, 2013.
Strategic long-‐term focus on cloud deployments.
• Public Cloud Services - Growing demand from customers that want public cloud services but remain reticent due to concerns
around network performance and security
- Digital media companies, online gaming companies, system integrators are key players
• Hybrid Cloud - Primary future demand driver of enterprise use of direct connections to third-‐party cloud providers
• Enterprise Customers - INXN’s DirectConnect program with Amazon could augment its proOile with enterprise customers
- Such new business would further diversify an already variegated customer base
46
Big Geographic Growth Opportunities
SigniVicant runway to expand given growth opportunities in Eastern Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia.
Latin America has been traditionally underserved and offer signiVicant opportunities especially if the tax regime in Brazil becomes favorable. Multi-‐tenant data center capacity remains tight across the continent at
more than 80% utilization in the top markets in Latin America.
• We believe that Interxion is extremely well positioned to expand beyond its core European footprint into adjacent markets and new geographies
• Cash Olow generation should accelerate in 2014 and 2015 as recent expansion opportunties ramp towards full utilization. This increased cash Olow can fund geographic expansion
• INXN also has ample balance sheet capacity for acquisitions with room to 4.0x covenants
• Markets outside of Europe and North America are highly fragmented
• Eastern Europe is rapidly growing and is a natural extension of INXN’s current western European footprint
47
We Believe INXN is Undervalued
• Predictable, recurring business model
• Consistent and growing cash Olows
• SigniOicant competitive advantages and moats relative to North America data center market
• Long runway of secular growth opportunities in early innings of adoption (cloud, digital media, big data, etcetera)
• BeneOits of growth capex
• Likely growth expansion into new markets either organically and/or inorganically
• Low balance sheet leverage relative to trading multiples of other recurring, high cash Olow stream businesses
• Recovery on European economy
• Strategic value of the business
We believe Interxion is undervalued with long-‐term upside from secular growth opportunities. At current prices, a long-‐term shareholder
pays ~13x consensus FYE 12/31/14E SSFCF, which does not account for:
49
Why This Opportunity Exists
• Overlooked because is European domiciled Oirm with U.S. stock listing
• Overcapacity and pricing concerns in North American market have incorrectly been applied to European data center market
• Investors overlooking INXN’s steady-‐state free cash Olow because it is masked by signiOicant growth capital expenditures
• Misguided concerns over weak macroeconomic environment in Europe affecting INXN demand
• 30% private equity ownership creates overhang / valuation discount
• Misplaced concerns that Europe-‐only footprint is a growth headwind
• Mixed sell side coverage: some U.S., some Europe
Market incorrectly places concerns over competitive issues speciVic to the North American data center market onto INXN.
50
Why are INXN Shares Attractive?
• Overcapacity and pricing risk
• Provider of commoditized wholesale data
• Builds speculative capacity
• Capital intensive real estate Oirm beholden to cap markets
• Data centers do not generate cash Olow
• Baker Capital’s 30% ownership creates overhang
The Bear’s Concerns
Elmrox View
• Overcapacity concerns are misplaced and speciOic to North America, which is structurally a different market from Europe. The competitive moats in Europe are much strong than in NA.
• INXN is not a wholesale data center (commodity) provider. INXN is only in the colocation business. INXN has built highly valuable communities of interest over 15 years that attract customers.
• INXN’s management has long track record of demand-‐driven capex . Moreover, the European market has become rational since the overbuild of the late 1990s. Prohibitive barriers to new entry in Europe preclude spec building.
• INXN’s owns little real estate. Most of its facilities are under long-‐term lease agreements that typically range 10 to 15 years in duration. Organic cash Olow generation supports growth capex.
• INXN has a strong and growing free cash Olow generation proOile underpinned by signiOicant secular growth opportunties, high EBITDA margins and low maintenance capex. Consensus overlooks INXN’s steady state free cash Olow (SSFCF) because it is masked by demand driven growth capex
• Baker’s ownership stake has been well known since INXN’s IPO in 2011 and is priced in

52
Replacement Value
A traditional replacement value analysis is insufOicient because it excludes:
• Complicated, underground installed Oiber network needed for data centers to function
• Specialized access to signiOicant and limited external power sources
• Customer interconnections (communities built over 10 to 15 years that cannot be replicated)
• Magnet customers that were cultivated and that draw additional customers to INXN
• Pan-‐European connections (among INXN data centers in different countries)
• Networking equipment for “peering”
• Permits in land constrained European markets
Replicating INXN’s scale and communities of interest would likely take 10 to 15 years and cost in excess of INXN’s current enterprise value of $1.9bn.
European telcos invested hundreds of millions of euros in Viber in the ground and networking equipment in the 1990s connecting to Virms like INXN. It is unlikely that this Viber network capex will be spent again. As such it is difVicult to place a value on
this critical, installed underground network as it cannot be replicated.
53
Replacement Value (cont’d)
Colocation facilities require very signiVicant upfront capital expenditures.
Strategically valuable footprint increases likelihood of a takeover.
• A typical 20,000 square foot colocation facility generally requires ~$30 million in capital to build
• Depending on the power density and overall quality of a facility, capital expenditures typically have historically run from $1,200 to $2,000 per square foot
• Facility upgrades historically range $400 to $1,000 a square foot roughly every ten years
• Full capacity utilization (> 90%) generally takes Oive years, but is local market dependent
• Payback periods typically run 7 to 9 years
Description Cost
Upfront Fees Upfront planning, design, and commissioning is usually ~25% of total upfront construction cost

Fire Suppression & Detection Equipment & Installation of the Systems
Variable by size and region
Building Permits & Local Taxes Variable by region
Data center infrastructure (mechanical and electrical) procurement and install

Illustrative EBITDA Standalone Valuation
Given its secular growth runway, moats, high EBITDA margin, cash Vlow generation, and predictable model, we believe INXN should trade inline with similar competitively advantaged growth companies. Such businesses trade at least between 10x to 14x ntm EBITDA.
N.B.: EBITDA multiple in INXN Potential Standalone Valuation table conservatively assumes the low-‐end of competitively advantaged growth companies EBITDA multiple range of 10x-‐14x. This analysis conservatively assumes no additional share repurchases and no dividends. Assumes growth capex of $97mm.

56
Illustrative Steady State Free Cash Flow
Given multiple paths for secular growth and the related growth capex, the market overlooks INXN’s strong steady state free cash Vlow (SSFCF).
Unlike most other steady state free cash Vlow (SSFCF) valued businesses such as alarm companies, INXN has a much higher organic growth rate.
• We believe steady state free cash Olow (SSFCF) multiples are more appropriate for valuation because this approach normalizes for growth capex, which is likely to continue through back half the decade
• INXN generates a stable and growing stream of cash Olows from a highly recurring customer base. The stability of these cash Olows is similar to utilities, MLPs, REITs, and alarm monitoring Oirms
• Given the recurring and subscription nature of INXN’s cash Olow streams, its business model is most comparable to alarm monitoring Oirms (INXN has scant, public comparables in Europe and North American data centers are competitively disadvantaged to European Oirms)
• Consensus values alarm monitoring businesses on SSFCF because similar to INXN, alarm companies are: - Highly recurring revenue businesses (>90%) - Provide services that are highly valuable/mission critical to customers - Recession resistant - Produce predictable cash Olow streams - Have low maintenance capex - Able to incur high degrees of leverage on the balance sheet
57
Illustrative SSFCF Valuation
In the private and public market, similar recurring cash Vlow stream businesses such as INXN’s tend to trade for 15x to 22x SSFCF or higher.
When compared to alarm companies, we believe INXN should trade at SSCF multiples that are a premium to alarm companies (which tend to trade at least 15x SSFCF in the public market) because: • INXN has a signiOicantly higher organic growth rate
- INXN organic growth 10% plus versus low single digits for alarm companies - INXN has secular growth versus cyclical growth (housing turnover) for alarm companies
• INXN has much lower churn - INXN churn <1% vs mid-‐teens % versus customer churn for alarm companies like ADT
• INXN spends little capital on marketing to garner new customers versus heavy marketing spend of alarm companies (INXN’s communities of interest draw customers without marketing)
• Competitive environment for INXN is much more rational versus the hyper competitive alarm industry (alarm monitoring is commodity-‐like product vs INXN’s unique and rare communities of interests)
• Barriers to entry are much high in European data centers than alarm monitoring • INXN carries signiOicantly lower leverage on the balance sheet than ADT, Monotronics (Ascent), Protection
One, Vivent, and Securitas
Given the organic growth proVile and competitive advantages, we believe INXN should trade at least inline with alarm companies, MLPs and REITs
that have similar high visibility on cash Vlow growth.
58
Illustrative SSFCF Valuation (cont’d) INXN’s recurring cash Vlow streams are akin to predictable cash Vlows
generating businesses like alarm companies, MLPs, and REITs. Given the lack of appropriate European comps, INXN should be compared to alarm Virms because they have very similar cash Vlow stream characteristics.
If management stopped all growth capex and facilities ran at a conservative 75% utilization rate, INXN should generate approximately $1.44 to $2.40 per share of steady state cash Vlow in FYE 12/31/2015.
• We prefer to use steady state free cash Olow (SSFCF), which assumes a no growth scenario, to improve the comparability between companies with similar business models and cash Olow streams, but different growth rates and competitive positions
• Steady state free cash Olow (SSFCF) streams are effectively the same as adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) used in the REIT space

Opportunity for Multiple Expansion
Predictable businesses with wide moats, sustainable margins and growing cash Vlow streams tend to trade on considerably higher ntm SSFCF multiples.
Multiple Expansion
N.B.: Multiples based on sell side estimates and share prices as of October 31, 2013. Implied INXN share price assumes midpoint of FY12/31/2015E EBITDA $225mm to $275mm range, which should generate approximately $134mm steady state free cash Olow (SSFCF). This analysis conservatively assumes 75% utilization rate and excludes cumulative cash Olow generation in 2H2013 to YE2015.
We believe the market is offering investors a leading secular grower for attractive
multiples of steady state free cash Vlow (SSFCF).

Baker Overhang Creates Opportunity
• Baker Capital, a New York based private equity Oirm, invested ~$145MM in Interxion between January 2000 and February 2006, and remains INXN’s largest shareholder
• Notably, Baker did not sell shares in Interxion’s 2011 initial public offering of $13.00 per share as a primary reason of the IPO was to raise capital to fund growth plans
• Following the IPO, Baker entered into a Shareholder Rights Agreement where it retained the right to designate the majority of the members of the Board, including the right to nominate the Chairman
• Baker currently owns ~30% of common shares outstanding following a distribution to its LPs in 2012
• We expect Baker’s ownership to continue declining as the investment horizon matures from its 1997 vintage fund
We believe INXN’s valuation discount already reVlects long-‐held market concerns that INXN’s top shareholder will exit its position over time.
With its Board seats and former afViliate as CEO, Baker Capital effectively controls INXN.
61
Baker Capital’s Conundrum
• The valuation discount created by concerns over Baker Capital exiting its position has made the stock highly attractive on a long-‐term basis
• If INXN’s SSFCF multiple continues to languish and given that Baker controls the Board, we would not be surprised to see a more balanced approach to capital allocation split between share repurchases buybacks and growth capex and/or M&A
• INXN could fund share repurchases from organic cash Olow or from incremental leverage given highly favorable credit markets and its under-‐levered balance sheet
• Once Baker’s ownership threshold falls below the trigger that allows it to nominate the majority to the Board, we foresee an increased likelihood of a takeover given the aforementioned Investment Merits and INXN’s strategic value
Given INXN’s low and attractive relative SSFCF valuation: Grow organically, grow inorganically, repurchase shares or all three?
Whichever path(s) is taken, we are happy because all lead to long-‐term shareholder value creation.
62
Other Value Creation Considerations… M&A, Dividends, Share Repurchases, and a REIT?
“Concept of a REIT is just another avenue to trying to improve and create shareholder value….in Europe, REITs aren't as prevalent as in the U.S.,
but it’s certainly an opportunity, an option, for companies like Interxion.”(1)
• Given the highly fragmented nature of the industry and the strong demand backdrop, INXN is well positioned to consolidate the colocation industry on standalone basis given its cash Olow and balance sheet capacity
• Given INXN’s growth runway, high EBITDA margins, low maintenance capex, and recurring free cash Olow, we believe the business could sustain considerably higher leverage levels - Per our earlier discussion of levered cash Olow streams, alarm monitoring businesses which have lower
growth proOiles typically have 3x to 6x levered capital structures - We see a lower likelihood of incremental leverage incurred near-‐term at INXN until the overall valuation
multiple expands (which would lead to lower debt costs) and the NOLs are exhausted (tax shield from debt makes more sense at that point)
• We view a dividend initiation or special dividend as less likely given the growth opportunities • More likely is a capital allocation shift towards some share repurchases given the valuation discount
• The potential for conversion to a REIT structure exists following the exhaustion of NOLs in 2015/2016 and assuming some structuring considerations. A REIT structure would likely attract new investors given its unique business model. We believe an INXN REIT would garner a premium multiple relative to: - wider REIT industry, which is subject to more cyclical property markets versus secular demand for INXN)
- to North American data center REITs, which are competitively disadvantaged relative to INXN

Making the Internet Work - The Internet is an aggregation of separately managed networks
- The infrastructures of these networks must physically connect in order to communicate
- Late 1990s: networks “Oibered” into access points to establish physical points for exchanging or “peering” data
Industry History
The evolution of carrier neutral colocation data centers.
Colocation Virms are positioned to beneVit from the secular growth in network trafVic.
Colocation Emerges - Modern colocation began as carrier-‐neutral points of connection for network peering
- As internet network trafOic grew, the colocation model emerged
- Enterprises began colocating servers, storage arrays and networking gear in Oiber-‐laden data centers to support mission critical, low-‐latency applications
Traditional Drivers for Data Center Outsourcing: - Corporate expansion or contraction - Changes in available IT budgets - Changing power demands and/or costs - Legislation or regulatory changes
Sources: Company data and Jones Lang LaSalle.
Industry History from Piper 2011 initiation - During the Internet/Telecom boom (1998 to 2001), there was signiOicant investment in data
- center facilities in Europe to meet expected growth in demand. This demand was expected
- to be driven largely by emerging Internet-‐based companies that would eventually need to
- expand their IT infrastructure. In many cases, these companies purchased enough space to
- ensure they had sufOicient capacity for the next several years. When the growth of many of
- these Internet-‐based companies fell well short of expectations, the data center operators
- experienced considerable churn and the industry was left with material oversupply. Since
- that time, industry capacity has been rationalized through bankruptcies and consolidation.
- Today, there are four primary network-‐neutral colocation data center operators in Europe
- and several smaller, location-‐speciOic players. In Exhibit 2, we show the top multi-‐tenant
- data center players, including non-‐network neutral operators, in Europe, the Middle East
- and Africa (EMEA), by revenue. As opposed to the late 1990s and early 2000s, demand is
- now largely driven by established companies. Additionally, data center operators build to
- meet the short-‐to-‐intermediate needs of their customers, not what they expect Oive years
- from now. Interxion typically establishes a base of customers before it commits to building
- a new data center facility. Furthermore, it usually enters into contracts for utilization of 20
- -‐ 25% of the new space on day 1 – a point at which the company typically reaches breakeven
- on an operating basis.

Global Landscape
Colocation market remains fragmented.
Source: Company data.
• The global data center market is not concentrated. Outside of a limited number of large companies, the market consists of hundreds of providers, many of whom have no more than one or two data centers
REITS
Legacy Colocation
Managed Services & Networks
• Owns both building shell and data center improvements
• Direct relationships with top-‐tier tenants
• All buildings are self managed
• Over 90% of tenants are end users
• Outsourced solutions for smaller customers
• Space and connectivity bundled together
• Company owned data centers • Biggest competitor to DuPont Fabros
• Rents to wholesale and smaller users – “retail” model
• Long and short term contracts
• Owns and leases properties
• Manages internet exchange
• Rents space to smaller users – “retail” model
• Short term contracts of 1 to 2 years
• Owned and ground leased properties
• Network neutral
• Much of the portfolio is only building shell
• Largest tenants are managed services and legacy colocation providers
• Management of many buildings outsourced
• Wholesale large tenants with long-‐term leases • Limited services offered
• Fee simple ownership of properties • Network neutral
77
European Competitive Landscape
There have been no Pan-‐European data center entrants in the last decade given the high barriers to entry in Europe.
Source: Company data.
• Colocation is often confused with wholesalers, and managed service providers
• Unlike the wholesale data center and managed service industries which have become increasingly competitive, the European colocation market has remained static

North America: Burgeoning Short Case
Consensus seems enamored with the secular demand trends yet overlooks the growing risks of oversupply in North America.
The North American data center market is much more commodity-‐like than Europe because the European market has physical constraints to capacity growth that make it challenging for new entrants especially wholesalers.
• We are increasingly concerned that the oversupplied wholesale market will lead wholesalers to encroach further on the U.S. colocation/retail market, which could damage pricing power
• U.S. wholesalers lease space directly to colocation companies such as Equinix (growing threat of wholesale disintermediation)
- Barriers to entry are much lower in North America relative to Europe given access to space, power, and Oiber networks
- Competition moving downstream
• While long investors in North American data centers have an afOinity for the well-‐known demand case, consensus seems to forgotten that given the low barriers to entry in North America that data center capacity is a commodity and the supply side is equally important
• We see a growing potential for wholesalers to disrupt the colocation market in North America
79
North America’s Moats are Shrinking
“The competitive dynamics of North America are much more worrisome in than Europe.“(1)
(1) Multi-‐Tenant data center Supply Europe and Asia-‐PaciOic Top Markets 2012 Report from 451 Research. (2) Focus Telecom’s “Colocation and Managed Hosting Report”.
“The lines have blurred [in North America]…Wholesalers and colocation providers are increasingly competing with each other for customers at the low end of the REIT market and the high end of the colocation market.”(2)
• SigniOicant differences in structural barriers between North America and Europe
- Scarcity of real estate and available sources of signiOicant power have precluded new Pan-‐European entrants (none in the last 10 years)
• Conversely, abundant land and power capacity in North America have resulted in overcapacity in the wholesale market
• Pricing pressures have incented wholesalers to focus sales efforts upstream and are becoming increasingly competitive with data center colocation companies (often wholesale tenants)
80
Overcapacity = Growing NA Pricing Risk
We are increasingly concerned that wholesale providers and large colocation providers will increasingly chase the same customers in North America.
(1) Avison Young Data Center Practice – Data Center Report October 2013.
• As major colocation data center cities have run out of adequate space, second and third tier markets have become increasingly attractive for capacity expansion because these cities have:
- Lower power costs
- Cheaper labor
- More available space and lower land/real estate prices
- Generally better tax regimes
- Disaster recovery sites: increasingly Oinancial institutions are placing their backup facilities at signiOicantly far distances from major cities
“Commoditization of wholesale product will drive down pricing; smaller tenants growing will also impact colocation companies adversely. Data center operators
providing solely wholesale or colocation only are a thing of the past.”(1)
