Dear Shareholder
SHARE PURCHASE PLAN
On behalf of the board of Megaport Limited ACN 607 301 959 ( Megaport ) (ASX: MP1), it gives me great pleasure to offer you the opportunity to purchase up to $15,000 in additional fully paid ordinary shares ( Shares ) in Megaport under this share purchase plan ( SPP ).
As announced on 29 July 2016, Megaport has recently completed a private placement of 10,500,000 shares to institutional and sophisticated investors at an issue price of $1.70 per share, raising approximately $17.85 million ( Placement ). Funds raised under the SPP, together with the funds raised under the Placement, will be used for general working capital, network investments and acquisition opportunities. Full details of the use of funds are set out in Megaport’s investor presentation released to the market on 29 July 2016.
The SPP will be available to shareholders who are on Megaport’s register at 7.00pm (Brisbane time) on 28 July 2016 ( Record Date ), and having a registered address in Australia or New Zealand ( Eligible Shareholders ).
The SPP provides Eligible Shareholders with the opportunity to acquire additional Shares at the same price at which they were issued under the Placement, being $1.70 per Share ( Issue Price ). The Issue Price represents a discount of 17.5% to the closing price of Megaport Shares on 27 July 2016 (the last day of trading before Megaport announced the Placement and SPP). There are no transaction costs or brokerage costs to participating shareholders.
The SPP will close on 16 August 2016 at 5.00pm (Brisbane time) . If you wish to participate in the SPP your application and funds must be received by the Closing Date. Megaport reserves its right to close the SPP early.
This letter and the accompanying material sets out the terms and conditions of the SPP. Additional information about Megaport, including all ASX announcements, is available at www.megaport.com.
The Board encourages you to consider this opportunity and thanks you for your continued support.
Yours faithfully

HOW DO I ACCEPT?
To participate, you should either:
-
(a) return your Application Form, together with a cheque by 5.00pm (Brisbane time) on 16 August 2016 ; or
-
(b) pay the Application Amount via BPAY so the payment is received by 5.00pm (Brisbane time) on 16 August 2016 .
BPAY instructions are set out on the Application Form. If you use BPAY, you do not need to return your Application Form. Please make sure you use the specific biller code and unique reference number on your personalised Application Form. Your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times for electronic payment. You should take this into consideration when making payment.
If paying by cheque, use the reply paid envelope or deliver it to the address on the Application Form. Applications received after the Closing Date will not be accepted.
Funds received for applications by cheque or BPAY will be regarded as applications for the maximum number of shares that those funds will pay for in full.
Importantly, while participation in the SPP is optional, once applications are submitted, they cannot be withdrawn.
Megaport’s market price may vary at any time during the offer period and Megaport’s Shares may trade at a price that is lower than the Issue Price.
By accepting the SPP offer, you accept the risk that the market price of Megaport’s Shares may fall
below the Issue Price between the date of this offer and the Allotment Date, in which case you may have been able to buy the Shares at a lower price than the Issue Price.
By making an application, you represent to Megaport the matters set out under the heading ‘Your representations’ in these terms and conditions and in the Application Form.
HOW MANY SHARES
Eligible Shareholders receive the number of Shares equal to the Application Amount (subject to any scaleback) divided by the Issue Price. Fractions will be rounded down, and the difference (being any amount less than the Issue Price) may be retained by Megaport. For example:
| Application Amount |
Shares Issued (subject to scale-back) |
|---|---|
| $2,000 1,176 Shares |
|
| $5,000 2,941 Shares |
|
| $7,500 4,411 Shares |
|
| $10,000 5,882 Shares |
|
| $12,500 7,352 Shares |
|
| $15,000 8,823 Shares |
The Issue Price does not exceed the limit prescribed by the ASX Listing Rules and ASIC Class Order 09/425.
Shares issued under the SPP may be sold or transferred on ASX at any time after the Quotation Date.
ELIGIBILITY TO PARTICIPATE
Participation in the SPP is optional. The offer is open to all shareholders with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand as at the Record Date.
Multiple holdings
If you are the only registered holder of Megaport Shares, but you receive more than one offer under the SPP (for example, due to multiple registered holdings), you may only apply in total for a maximum of $15,000 worth of Shares.
Joint holders
If you are a joint holder of Megaport Shares, that holding is considered to be a single registered holding for the purpose of the SPP. You are entitled to participate in the SPP for that single holding only. If you are a joint holder and you receive more than one offer under the SPP, you may only apply in total for a maximum of $15,000 worth of Shares.
Trustee or nominee
If you are expressly noted on Megaport’s Share register as a trustee or nominee for a named beneficiary, you may only apply for one maximum parcel of shares for each named beneficiary. If Megaport’s Share Registry does not record a named beneficiary in respect of your
2

trustee or nominee holding, the rules for multiple single holdings apply.
Custodians
If you are a custodian within the definition of ‘custodian’ in ASIC Class Order 09/425 (as varied) and hold Megaport Shares for one or more persons (each a Participating Beneficiary ), or on behalf of another custodian of Megaport Shares, you may apply for up to a maximum of $15,000 worth of Shares for each Participating Beneficiary, subject to providing Megaport a ‘custodian certificate’ in addition to the Application Form, which certifies matters required by ASIC Class Order 09/425 (as varied). Please contact the Share Registry to obtain the form of the custodian certificate.
DIRECTORS
Directors of Megaport who are Eligible Shareholders may participate in the SPP.
SCALE-BACK
Megaport may reject any application for Shares under the SPP, which it believes does not comply with these terms and conditions, including where it appears that you are not an Eligible Shareholder, if a cheque is returned unpaid, the Application Form has not been properly completed or where there are grounds for believing that the applicant is not acting in good faith.
Megaport may modify, suspend or cancel the SPP at any time. If Megaport does this it will notify ASX. If the SPP is cancelled the Application Amount will be refunded without interest. Neither Megaport nor the board accepts or assumes any liability to shareholders because of the variation, suspension or termination of SPP.
Megaport may settle, at its discretion in any manner it deems fit, any anomalies or disputes in connection with the SPP and that decision is conclusive and binding on all applicants. Megaport reserves the right to waive strict compliance with these terms and conditions.
YOUR REPRESENTATIONS
Megaport may, in its absolute discretion, scale-back applications under the SPP to the extent and in the manner that it sees fit.
Factors that Megaport may take into account in determining any scale-back include:
-
(a) compliance with regulatory requirements;
-
(b) the amount applied for by each shareholder under the SPP;
-
(c) the number of Shares held at the Record Date; and
-
(d) the close of the SPP offer period.
If a scale-back occurs, the difference between the value of the Shares allotted and the Application Amount paid to Megaport (only where the amount is greater than the Issue Price) will be refunded to you as soon as practicable following the Allotment Date. Any scale-back will be announced on the Allotment Date. No interest will be paid on any Application Amount paid or refunded. Scale-back decisions are made by the board and are final.
ASX QUOTATION
After Shares are issued and allotted under the SPP, Megaport will apply to ASX for quotation of the Shares on the Official List and send an allotment notice to each Eligible Shareholder’s registered address.
NO COSTS
Eligible Shareholders may subscribe without incurring brokerage costs, commission or other transaction costs.
MEGAPORT’S RIGHTS
Megaport retains absolute discretion to increase the total amount raised under the SPP offer.
By completing and returning the Application Form or by making a BPAY payment, you:

-
(e) irrevocably and unconditionally agree to these terms and conditions; and
-
(f) acknowledge that Megaport is not liable for any exercise of its discretions referred to in these terms.
