Non - IFRS Financial Measures. This press release also includes forecasted 2016 and reported 2015, 2014 and 2013 EBITDA of Ascend Holdings, which are non - IFRS financial measures. EBITDA is calculated as earnings before interest and taxes plus depreciation and amortization. Ascend’s management uses these non - IFRS measures to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for p urposes of determining management incentive compensation, and for budgeting and planning purposes. These measures are used in monthly financial reports prepared for mana gem ent and Ascend Holdings’ board of directors. Ascend believes that the use of these non - IFRS financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing th e Company’s financial measures with other telecom infrastructure companies, many of which present similar non - IFRS financial measures to investors. Management of Ascend does not consider these non - IFRS measures in isolation or as an a lternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. The principal limitation of these non - IFRS financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by IFRS to be recorded in the Ascend Holdings’ financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non - IFRS finan cial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non - IFRS financial measures in connection with IFRS results. You should review the financial statements and other financial information of Ascen d Holdings’ in the proxy statement / prospectus included in the Registration Statement and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Ascend’s business. Please refer to the Appendix for a reconciliation of these non - IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures. Market & Industry Data. The market and industry data contained in this presentation are based on Ascend’s own estimates, internal research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties and industry and general publications and, i n each case, are believed by Ascend’s management to be reasonable estimates. This data is subject to change and cannot always be verified with complete certainty d ue to limits on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties inherent in any statistical survey of market or ind ustry data. As a result, we do not guarantee the accuracy and completeness of this data. Disclaimer .

2G site • Typically pass - through to service providers and reimbursed based on actuals • Increased focus towards entering into fixed energy contracts with operators and minimizing energy costs through usage of efficient batteries and green initiatives; this will lead to further operating leverage and profitability • Specifies service levels applicable, i.e. uptime availability for a site • Penalty applicable for uptime below threshold; incentives could be offered for higher uptime availability

13 Ascend Is Different from Captive Tower Companies Management Independence Portfolio Quality Operating Excellence Energy Saving Initiatives Indian captive tower company Ascend India Telecom Infrastructure Ascend Advantage ▪ Potential conflict of interest arising from the largest shareholder being the largest customer ▪ No conflicts x Independence and resultant growth due to no conflict of interests ▪ Legacy tower assets not built to support multiple tenancies ▪ Overlap of towers among shareholders resulting in redundancies ▪ Completely independent tower portfolio with diversified tenancies, where each tower is designed to support multiple tenancies ▪ State - of - the - art radio frequency (RF) planning with no overlap x Superior asset quality ▪ Heavily dependent on manual intervention ▪ Out

sourced O&M, high vendor dependency x One of the lowest cost structures in the industry with significant upside from incremental tenancies ▪ Well integrated tower operations center with ability to monitor each site in real time ▪ Site automation, remote management ▪ In house O&M, team aligned with latest technology ▪ Few sites are solar powered ▪ ~50% sites of tower sites operate on efficient / green energy solutions x Upside from fixed energy contracts with telcos x Cushion against fuel price volatility HoldCo Discount Stake Sale Size ▪ Holdco discount ascribed by analysts: • Lack of controlling stake in a subsidiary company • Dividend tax leakage x “Pure play” Indian tower company ▪ No such impact ▪ Majority stake not possible ▪ No such restrictions x Control premium
