Keppel DC REIT to pay $56.6m for data centre master lessee's additional core M&E

Tenant 1-Net will pay for the extra costs from its installation.

Keppel DC REIT will pay up to $56.6m for the installation of additional core Mechanical and Electrical (M&E) in levels 2 and 3 of its Riverside Road data centre for the expansion of its master lessee 1-Net Singapore, the company announced.

Through its subsidiary Datacentre One, the REIT entered into a deed to supplement the existing master lease agreement with 1-Net Singapore. It stated that 1-Net Singapore will be paying instead for the installation costs outside the maximum that the REIT proposed.

1-Net will also pay additional rent between $6.89m and $7.358m based on a portion of the costs paid by Keppel DC REIT for the design, construction, installation and completion of the additional core M&E, on top of an additional core M&E rent for 10 years starting from its handover.

Originally, Datacentre One will be paying for the costs of the construction, installation and completion of the additional core M&E. The company negotiated for the payment to be made only at the completion of the works.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
