31 SITE DEVELOPMENT & CONSTRUCTION STATEMENTS FROM INTERNATIONAL COLO-PLAYER AND GENERAL CONTRACTOR Nordic points as articulated by two international players Construction statistics not relevant From experience, construction costs Nordic less expensive than London, Germany and the Netherlands, especially in main cities. Same price as equivalent project in the US. Same suppliers all over Europe => pan-european prices. Local variations exist Construction projects on time Quick building permits No need to secure electricity contracts in advance Corporate taxes in Nordics are low Lowest operational PUE s among corporate site portfolio..it only took two weeks before we had our decision, we ve never seen that before! (Digiplex) It s all about short timeto-market. We want to avoid risks, and hate un-expected costs! Eg electricity cable cheaper in Nordics! Need in some markets to sign contract in advance, paying a premium for a few years Corp Tax (nominal) SOURCES: INTERVIEWS, UPPLANDS-VÄSBY MUNICIPALITY BUSINESS SWEDEN 23 NOVEMBER,

32 TOWARDS 2020 Shorter time to certainty of cost, risk & schedule Differences between the best sites are shrinking Development & operational experience Specialization and supply chain People: critical mass of education, training & skills Pre-permitting & packaging - actionable data, site details, ability to develop, cost and schedule Harmonization - regulation, taxes, prices Common market for labour and materials Technology reducing distances Sharing best practices, Sustainability grids becoming greener BUSINESS SWEDEN 23 NOVEMBER,
