LONDON -- November 15, 2012

The International Data Centre Group (IDC-G), the first global data centre
alliance, has announced a strategic Industrial Sponsorship with Emerson
Network Power, a business of Emerson and a global leader in maximizing
availability, capacity, and efficiency of critical infrastructure.

The newly signed sponsorship aims to ensure the ongoing quality of services at
data centres given that the quality of service is conditional upon the quality
of the infrastructure. The bespoke, innovative focus of Emerson solutions to
the extent that each customer solution and piece of kit is suited to the
respective client’s requirements corresponds with IDC-G’s focus on high
quality services. Currently, under IDC-G’s group umbrella, there are 33
high-quality data centres in 28 emerging and high-growth markets across five
continents.

“The focus of IDC-G is to be the de facto global alliance of data centres in
high-growth data centre markets. Being in these markets where data centres are
rapidly developing, one of the critical factors needed in order to sustain
demand is to provide supports within the alliance. Given our regional focus
and emphasis on quality, we intend to explore the common synergy between the
two global companies,” said Guy Willner, Executive Chairman of International
Data Centre Group.

“We see IDC-G as one of the most dynamic and fastest growing carrier neutral
hosting companies. Its focus on emerging markets makes IDC-G even more
interesting to Emerson Network Power as together we can deliver best-in-class
global solutions and service capability for any data centre application. The
Alliance itself celebrates the extension of the already successful current
collaboration of the two companies towards new opportunities and markets”,
said Peter Lambrecht, VP Sales IT & Finance EMEA of Emerson Network Power
