TelecityRedbus to acquire Globix UK in $62 million deal

New York, August 21, 2006 -- Globix Corporation, a leading provider of Internet infrastructure and managed services, today announced a definitive agreement to sell its wholly-owned subsidiary, Globix Holdings (UK) Limited (“Globix UK”) to TelecityRedbus, Europe’s leading independent provider of colocation and data center services. The transaction is expected to close in three weeks and is subject to customary terms and closing conditions.

TelecityRedbus will pay USD $62 million (approximately £33 million) for Globix UK and its associated pan-European network, which extends to the core business hubs of Paris, Amsterdam and Frankfurt. In addition it will acquire two high-specification data centers, totalling 40,000 ft² in central London, industry-leading Internet network infrastructure, a comprehensive portfolio of managed services and Globix’ highly experienced team of technical and management specialists.

“The acquisition of Globix UK will enable new and existing customers to take advantage of one of Europe’s most advanced data center networks. Few other players can claim such an advanced portfolio of high-tech data centers, Internet infrastructure and managed services, supported by such a well-respected team of technical consultants and account managers,” said Mike Tobin, CEO of TelecityRedbus.

“It is this combination of assets that made Globix such an attractive acquisition target. It is no secret that we intend to grow our business through acquisitions, as well as organic growth, to further consolidate our position as one of Europe’s most advanced hosting and managed data center service providers in Europe, and we believe the acquisition of Globix takes us a huge step closer towards this goal,” concluded Mike.

Ted Lodge, Globix’ Chairman of the Board of Directors and Executive Chairman, said: “In late March of this year, Globix announced that it had hired the investment banking firm of The Bank Street Group LLC to assist it in reviewing strategic and financing alternatives for the company and its businesses. The sale of Globix UK is an outgrowth of that review, and we believe recognizes the value of Globix UK’s strong position in the London data center market.”

“The acquisition brings great opportunities for Globix UK customers, staff and shareholders,” said Philip Cheek, Managing Director of Globix UK. “We’re looking forward to working with the TelecityRedbus team to help customers to continue to take advantage of the Internet and the business opportunities it opens up for them.”

On completion of the acquisition, TelecityRedbus will have over 300 employees supporting 19 fully fitted data centers, totaling 550,000ft², across seven European countries, making it one of Europe’s largest and most advanced data center infrastructure and managed service providers.

TelecityRedbus projects a combined turnover of at least £76million for 2006.
