Dear Shareholder
As a valued shareholder of Qube Holdings Limited (Qube), I am pleased to offer you the opportunity to participate in Qube’s recently announced fully underwritten 1 for 6.35 accelerated non‑renounceable pro rata entitlement offer of new Qube ordinary shares (New Shares) at an offer price of A$1.95 (Offer Price) per New Share to raise approximately A$500 million (Entitlement Offer).
ENTITLEMENT OFFER AND USE OF pROcEEDSOn Thursday, 30 April 2020, Qube announced its intention to raise approximately A$500 million through a fully underwritten accelerated non‑renounceable pro rata entitlement offer.
The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten and proceeds will be used to provide additional balance sheet flexibility to continue to pursue growth opportunities.
The institutional component of the Entitlement Offer (Institutional Entitlement Offer) was successfully completed on Thursday, 30 April 2020 and trading in Qube’s shares recommenced on Monday, 4 May 2020. The Institutional Entitlement Offer raised approximately A$264 million.
Attached to this letter is the information booklet (Information Booklet) relating to the retail component of the Entitlement Offer (Retail Entitlement Offer). The Retail Entitlement Offer is expected to raise approximately A$236 million.
RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFERUnder the Retail Entitlement Offer, Eligible Retail Shareholders have the opportunity to invest at the same price as the Eligible Institutional Shareholders who participated in the Institutional Entitlement Offer. The number of New Shares for which you are entitled to subscribe under the Retail Entitlement Offer (Entitlement) is set out in your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany this Information Booklet when it is despatched to Eligible Retail Shareholders on 7 May 2020.
The Offer Price of A$1.95 per New Share represents a 10.3% discount to Theoretical Ex‑Rights Price (TERP)2 and an 11.8% discount to the closing price of Qube of A$2.21 per share on Friday, 24 April 2020.
2 The Theoretical Ex‑Rights Price (TERP) is calculated by reference to Qube’s closing price of A$2.21 per share on Friday, 24 April 2020, being the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Entitlement Offer. TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Qube’s shares trade immediately after the ex‑date of the Entitlement Offer will depend on many factors and may not approximate TERP.
If you take up your full Entitlement, you may also apply for additional New Shares up to a maximum of 100% in excess of your Entitlement, at the Offer Price (Top Up Facility). The allocation of additional New Shares will be subject to the availability of New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer. Qube retains the flexibility to scale back applications for additional New Shares at its discretion (refer to section 5 of this Information Booklet for more information).
The Entitlement Offer is non‑renounceable and therefore your Entitlement will not be tradeable on the ASX, cannot be sold and is not otherwise transferable.
OTHER INFORMATIONThis Information Booklet contains important information, including:
• ASX announcements relating to the Entitlement Offer, including the Investor Presentation released to the ASX on Thursday, 30 April 2020, which provide information on Qube, the Entitlement Offer and key risks for you to consider;

1 SUMMARY OF OpTIONS AVAILABLE TO YOU
If you are an Eligible Retail Shareholder,3 you may take one of the following actions:
• take up all of your Entitlement and if you do so, you may also apply for additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility;
• take up part of your Entitlement and allow the balance to lapse, in which case you will receive no value for the lapsed part of your Entitlement; or
• do nothing, in which case your Entitlement will lapse and you will receive no value for the lapsed Entitlement.
If you are a retail Shareholder that is not an Eligible Retail Shareholder, you are an “Ineligible Retail Shareholder”. Ineligible Retail Shareholders are not entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer.
Options available to you Key considerations
1. Option One: Take up all of your Entitlement
• You may elect to purchase New Shares at the Offer Price (see section 3 “How to apply” for instructions on how to take up your Entitlement). The Retail Entitlement Offer closes at 5.00pm (Sydney time) on Thursday, 21 May 2020.
• The New Shares will rank equally in all respects with Existing Shares (including rights to dividends and distributions).
• If you take up all of your Entitlement, you may also apply for additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility. Details of the Top Up Facility are included in section 3.4 of this Information Booklet. There is no guarantee that you will be allocated any additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility.
2. Option Two: Take up part of your Entitlement
• If you only take up part of your Entitlement, the part not taken up will lapse. You will not be entitled to apply for additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility and the New Shares not subscribed for may be acquired by Eligible Retail Shareholders under the Top Up Facility or by the Underwriters or sub‑underwriters.
• If you do not take up your Entitlement in full the balance not taken up will lapse and you will not receive any payment or value for that part of your Entitlement not taken up.
• If you do not take up your Entitlement in full, you will have your percentage holding in Qube reduced as a result of dilution by the shares issued under the Entitlement Offer.
3. Option Three: Do nothing, in which case your Entitlement will lapse, and you will receive no value for your lapsed Entitlement
• If you do not take up your Entitlement, you will not be allocated any New Shares and your Entitlement will lapse. Your Entitlement to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer is non‑renounceable, which means it is non‑transferrable and cannot be sold, traded on ASX or any other exchange, nor can it be privately transferred.
• If you do not take up your Entitlement you will not receive any payment or value for your Entitlement not taken up.
• If you do not take up your Entitlement, you will have your percentage holding in Qube reduced as a result of dilution by the shares issued under the Entitlement Offer.

2 OVERVIEW OF THE ENTITLEMENT OFFER
2.1 OVERVIEWQube intends to raise approximately A$500 million under the Entitlement Offer via an offer of approximately 256 million New Shares at an Offer Price of A$1.95 per New Share. Qube will use the proceeds of the Entitlement Offer to strengthen Qube’s balance sheet and provide additional flexibility to continue to pursue growth opportunities.
The Entitlement Offer has two components:
(a) the Institutional Entitlement Offer – Eligible Institutional Shareholders were given the opportunity to take up all or part of their Entitlement, and a bookbuild process to sell Entitlements not taken up by Eligible Institutional Shareholders as well as Entitlements of Ineligible Institutional Shareholders at the Offer Price was carried out, to raise approximately A$264 million; and
(b) the Retail Entitlement Offer (to which this Information Booklet relates) – Eligible Retail Shareholders will be given the opportunity to take up all or part of their Entitlement to raise approximately $A236 million. Eligible Retail Shareholders who take up their full Entitlement may also participate in the Top Up Facility by applying for additional New Shares in excess of their Entitlement at the Offer Price, up to a maximum of 100% in excess of their Entitlement.
Both the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the Retail Entitlement Offer are non‑renounceable. Accordingly, Entitlements do not trade on the ASX nor can they be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of. New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer are to be issued at the same price as New Shares issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer. In addition, Shareholders’ Entitlements under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the Retail Entitlement Offer are calculated based on the same ratio.
The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by the Underwriters in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement (as summarised in section 5.6 of this Information Booklet).

The Offer Price of A$1.95 per New Share represents a discount of 10.3% to TERP4 and an 11.8% discount to the closing price of Qube of A$2.21 per share on Friday, 24 April 2020, being the last trading day prior to the announcement of the Entitlement Offer.
The Entitlement Offer is non‑renounceable. Accordingly, Entitlements do not trade on the ASX, nor can they be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of.
The Retail Entitlement Offer opens on Thursday, 7 May 2020.

30 April 2020 ASX Announcement
QUBE ANNOUNCES $500 MILLION ENTITLEMENT OFFER TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL BALANCE SHEET FLEXIBILITY TO CONTINUE TO PURSUE GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES Key points:

• Funding to support continued investment in Qube’s core business, including growth capital expenditure on recent contract wins and strategic acquisitions. Additional opportunities expected to arise in the current environment

• Diversified business model remains resilient despite COVID-19 and continues to generate solid earnings and cash flow from diversified essential logistics activities
To provide additional balance sheet flexibility to continue to pursue growth opportunities, Qube Holdings Limited (“Qube”) today announces the launch of a $500 million fully underwritten 1 for 6.35 accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer at $1.95 per share (the “Entitlement Offer”). Qube Managing Director, Maurice James, said: “Despite the near term challenges of COVID-19, our diversified business remains resilient and our long term strategic growth priorities remain unchanged. Qube has a long track record of investing across its core business, including through acquisitions to diversify its capabilities and operations and provide a platform for long term earnings growth. We

maintain a significant pipeline of organic and inorganic opportunities, and only expect this to increase in the current environment. The Entitlement Offer announced today will leave us conservatively geared, with significant balance sheet flexibility and liquidity to continue to pursue this robust growth agenda.” Liquidity and near term capex As at 31 March 2020, Qube had liquidity (cash and undrawn facilities) of $470 million after adjusting for the FY20 interim dividend, with no near term debt maturities, and material headroom to its covenants. Qube is also in advanced stages of finalising commitments with existing lenders for $200 million in additional facilities. In combination, with the Entitlement Offer, these initiatives will provide Qube with over $1,150 million of total liquidity. This liquidity will support funding of the anticipated ~$420 million of minimum expected capital expenditure over the period from April 2020 to June 2021, including:
• maintenance capex • capex to support Bluescope, Shell, BHP Nickel West contracts and new equipment to
support growth and productivity across the Operating Division • completion of additional warehousing at Moorebank Precinct East • land preparation and precinct infrastructure works at Moorebank Precinct West to support
the potential major new tenant and progression of the IMEX automation The Entitlement Offer will also support additional growth opportunities across the business, including new contracts and projects across the Operating Division, strategic acquisition opportunities and potential accelerated warehousing development at the Moorebank Logistics Park expected to be driven by the finalisation of the agreement with the potential major new tenant. Pro forma for the Entitlement Offer, gearing will decrease from 35.2% to 24.2%2, (compared to Qube’s long term target range of 30 – 40%). Continued investment in the core business and growth opportunities Qube continues to win new business and expand the scope of services provided to existing customers within the Operating Division. In FY20, Qube has undertaken capex to support several attractive new growth contracts, including with:
• BlueScope Steel Limited to provide East Coast interstate steel train services and intermodal terminal operations at Qube's North Dynon facility in Melbourne
• Shell Australia to provide supply base management, as well as various other logistics services
• BHP Nickel West which includes the construction and maintenance of a haul road and the provision of nickel ore haulage services
In addition, Qube continues its strong track record of delivering growth in its core businesses and through acquisitions and is delivering synergies and operational benefits from recent transactions, including: 2 Gearing ratio calculated using 31 December 2019 Balance Sheet results, excluding the impact of AASB 16 and adjusting for the Entitlement Offer.

• the acquisition of the remaining 52.8% interest in Quattro Grain JV Qube did not previously own
• the acquisition of New Zealand based NFA Holdings, which will provide Qube with additional geographic diversification, increased scale in its forestry operations and adds capabilities and equipment
• the acquisition of Chalmers to further develop Qube's logistics business in both Victoria and Queensland
• the acquisition of LCR Group, which provides Qube with the ability to deliver enhanced mining and industrial services to its existing and future customers
Qube continues to assess an attractive pipeline of strategic organic and inorganic growth initiatives, and expects additional growth opportunities to arise in the current environment. Significant ongoing progress at the Moorebank Logistics Park Leasing and development momentum continues at the Moorebank Logistics Park with a number of significant recent milestones being achieved at the precinct. Train services have commenced at the IMEX terminal, along with tenant operations including the Target distribution centre and Caesarstone (in Warehouse 3). The Target distribution centre involved construction of one of the largest single rooftop solar panel installations in Australia, which is now providing power to tenants. The high level of activity is continuing in the second quarter of 2020 as warehouse and rail activities begin to ramp up while warehousing construction on Moorebank Precinct East and precinct works on Moorebank Precinct West advance. Progress also continues to be made with potential tenants for Warehouse 4 and the remaining space available in Warehouse 3. An Agreement for Lease is under final negotiation for Warehouse 4B with ATS Building Products Pty Limited (ATS) and occupancy expected in May 2020. As an update to Qube’s ASX disclosures of 25 February and 6 April, the terms of formal agreements have now been settled with a potential major tenant for a material part of Moorebank Precinct West. The agreements remain subject to its board approval and contractual exchange, both of which are expected to occur in due course. The development and lease would represent a key milestone for the project and confirms the significant logistics benefits of the site. The potential marquee tenancy is expected to drive further tenant interest in the Moorebank Logistics Park and accelerated growth in warehousing. Qube continues to assess funding and ownership options for Moorebank and its other property assets to realise some of the substantial value created and reduce Qube's future funding requirements. Indicative offers have been received from a high quality group of bidders / partners that Qube believes have the ability to understand and appropriately value the project. Importantly, these parties also have the ability to bring additional strategic value to the project. A shortlisted group of parties is now proceeding in the second stage of the process. While the process is expected to take several months as it progresses alongside the ongoing development and leasing activities on the Moorebank site, Qube may accelerate the process for the fully leased Minto properties. Qube will only undertake a transaction where the Board determines that it is in the best interests of the project and shareholders to do so, having regard to the unique attributes of the Moorebank Logistics Park and the substantial future value expected to be created as the project progresses. There is no certainty that any transaction will proceed.

COVID-19 and trading update As announced at its update on 6 April 2020, a number of near term impacts associated with COVID-19 are being experienced in several of Qube's markets. However, Qube’s business model remains resilient and continues to generate solid earnings and cash flows from its diversified and essential logistics activities and its investment in long term strategic growth priorities remains unchanged. Qube continues to work with its customer base to ensure the continued reliable delivery of key services and business continuity plans have been put in place. Qube has implemented a range of operational responses to COVID-19, including an immediate reduction in costs including significant reductions in fixed remuneration of Management and Board fees from 1 April to 30 June. Plans are also being implemented to reduce costs further in FY21 commensurate with the downturn in activity levels. Due to continued uncertainty and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, Qube is not in a position to provide an earnings outlook for FY20 to the market at this time. Further details of the Entitlement Offer Qube is undertaking a $500 million fully underwritten 1 for 6.35 accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer at $1.95 per share. The offer price represents a 10.3% discount to the Theoretical Ex-Rights Price (“TERP”) of $2.173 and a 11.8% discount to Qube’s last closing price of $2.214. The Entitlement Offer will result in approximately 256 million new shares being issued, representing approximately 15.7% of Qube’s existing issued capital. New shares issued will rank equally with existing shares. Eligible Retail shareholders will have the ability to apply for additional new shares up to 100% of their entitlement under a ‘Top-up Facility’ (subject to scale back, at Qube's discretion). The Qube Directors who are eligible to participate in the Entitlement Offer have each confirmed their intention to subscribe for their respective entitlements. Taverners Group has also indicated that it intends to subscribe for all of its entitlement. The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by UBS AG, Australia Branch and Merrill Lynch Equities (Australia) Limited. 3 Calculated based on a closing price for Qube shares of $2.21 on 24 April 2020, rounded to 2 decimal places. 4 The closing price of Qube on ASX on 24 April 2020.

Forward-looking statements and forecasts This announcement contains certain “forward-looking statements” that are based on management's beliefs, assumptions and expectations and on information currently available to management. Forward looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward looking words such as, “expect”, “anticipate”, “likely”, “intend”, “should”, “ could”, “may”, “predict”, “plan”, “propose”, “will”, “believe”, “forecast”, “estimate”, “target” “outlook”, “guidance” and other similar expressions within the meaning of securities laws of applicable jurisdictions. Such forward looking statements include statements regarding the timetable, conduct and outcome of the Entitlement Offer and the use of proceeds thereof, statements about the plans, objectives and strategies of the management of the Group, statements about the markets in which the Group operates and statements about the future performance of the Group's businesses. You are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward looking statements, particularly in light of the current economic climate and the significant volatility, uncertainty and disruption caused by the outbreak of COVID-19. Any such statements, opinions and estimates in this announcement speak only as of the date hereof and are based on assumptions and contingencies subject to change without notice, as are statements about market and industry trends, projections, guidance and estimates. Forward looking statements are provided as a general guide only. The forward looking statements contained in this announcement are not indications, guarantees or predictions of future performance and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Group. Refer to the key risks in Appendix A of the Investor Presentation lodged concurrently with this announcement for a non-exhaustive summary of certain key business, offer and general risk factors that may affect the Group. No representation, warranty or assurance (express or implied) is given or made in relation to any forward looking statement by any person (including Qube or any of its advisers). In particular, no representation, warranty or assurance (express or implied) is given that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward looking statements in this announcement will actually occur. Actual operations, results, performance, production targets or achievement may vary materially from any projections and forward looking statements and the assumptions on which those statements are based. Except as required by law or regulation (including the ASX Listing Rules), Qube disclaims any obligation or undertaking to update forward looking statements in this announcement to reflect any changes in expectations in relation to any forward looking statement or change in events, circumstances or conditions on which any statement is based.

1 May 2020 ASX Announcement
QUBE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES INSTITUTIONAL ENTITLEMENT OFFER Qube Holdings Limited (“Qube”) is pleased to announce the successful completion of the institutional component (“Institutional Entitlement Offer”) of its fully underwritten 1 for 6.35 accelerated pro-rata non-renounceable entitlement offer (“Entitlement Offer”) that was announced on Thursday, 30 April 2020. The Institutional Entitlement Offer raised approximately $264 million at $1.95 per share (“Offer Price”). It was extremely well supported by institutional shareholders with take-up of approximately 99.3% by eligible institutional shareholders (excluding Canada Pension Plan Investment Board who did not participate). There was overwhelming demand from both existing Qube shareholders and new institutional investors for the balance of the institutional component, comprising renounced entitlements and entitlements attributable to ineligible shareholders. Qube Managing Director, Maurice James said “We are pleased by the strong support shown by existing investors and other institutional investors for the offer. We see the success of the offer as a clear endorsement of Qube’s long term strategy. This Entitlement Offer provides support to continue the investment in our core businesses, as well as pursue growth opportunities that we expect to arise from the current environment.” New shares issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing shares. The new shares issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer are expected to be allotted on Tuesday, 12 May 2020. Trading will commence on a normal settlement basis on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) on the same day. Retail Entitlement Offer The retail component of the Entitlement Offer, which is fully underwritten, will raise a further approximately $236 million (“Retail Entitlement Offer”). The Retail Entitlement Offer will open on Thursday, 7 May 2020 and close at 5.00pm (Sydney time) on Thursday, 21 May 2020. Eligible retail shareholders on the Record Date of 7.00pm (Sydney time) on Monday, 4 May 2020 will have the opportunity to invest in shares at the Offer Price. The terms and conditions under which eligible retail shareholders may apply are outlined in the Retail Entitlement Offer Booklet which will be despatched to eligible retail shareholders on or around Thursday, 7 May 2020.

of the retail offer booklet will be available on the ASX website and our website for the Entitlement Offer at www.qubeoffer.com.au from Thursday, 7 May 2020.

5.1 DATE OF THIS INFORMATION BOOKLETThis Information Booklet is dated Thursday, 7 May 2020. Subject to the following paragraph, statements in this Information Booklet are made only as of the date of this Information Booklet unless otherwise stated and the information in this Information Booklet remains subject to change without notice. Qube is not responsible for updating this Information Booklet.
The ASX announcements and Investor Presentation set out in section 4 of this Information Booklet are current as at the date on which they were released. There may be additional announcements that are made by Qube (including after the date of this Information Booklet) that may be relevant to your consideration of whether to take up your Entitlement. Therefore, it is prudent that you check whether any further announcements have been made by Qube to the ASX before submitting an Application.
5.2 ELIGIBILITY OF RETAIL SHAREHOLDERSThe Retail Entitlement Offer is being offered to all Eligible Retail Shareholders only.
Eligible Retail Shareholders are Shareholders on the Record Date who:
(a) are registered as holders of Existing Shares as at 7.00pm (Sydney time);
(b) have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand as noted on Qube’s share register or are a Shareholder that Qube has otherwise determined is eligible to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer;
(c) are not in the United States and are not a person (including nominees or custodians) acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States (to the extent such person holds Existing Shares for the account or benefit of such person in the United States);
(d) were not invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and were not treated as an Ineligible Institutional Shareholder under the Institutional Entitlement Offer (other than as nominee or custodian, in each case in respect of other underlying holdings); and
(e) are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.
By making a payment by Bpay® or direct transfer, you will be taken to have represented and warranted that you satisfy each of the criteria listed above to be an Eligible Retail Shareholder. Nominees, trustees or custodians are therefore advised to seek independent professional advice as to how to proceed.
Qube has determined that it is unreasonable to extend the Retail Entitlement Offer to Ineligible Retail Shareholders because of the small number of such Shareholders, the number and value of Shares that they hold and the cost of complying with the applicable regulations in jurisdictions outside Australia and New Zealand, but reserves its right to do so (subject to compliance with relevant laws).
5.3 RANKING OF NEW SHARESThe New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will be fully paid and rank equally with Existing Shares. The rights attaching to the New Shares are set out in Qube’s constitution and are regulated by the Corporations Act, Listing Rules and general law.
5.4 ALLOTMENT, TRADING AND QUOTATIONQube has applied for quotation of the New Shares on ASX in accordance with Listing Rule requirements. If ASX does not grant quotation of the New Shares, Qube will repay all Application Monies (without interest).
Trading of New Shares will, subject to ASX approval, occur shortly after allotment. It is expected that allotment of the New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer will take place on Thursday, 28 May 2020. Application Monies will be held by Qube on trust for Applicants until the New Shares are allotted. No interest will be paid on Application Monies.
Subject to approval being granted, it is expected that the New Shares allotted under the Retail Entitlement Offer will commence trading on a normal basis on Friday, 29 May 2020.
It is the responsibility of Applicants to determine the number of New Shares allotted and issued to them prior to trading in the New Shares. The sale by an Applicant of New Shares prior to receiving their holding statement is at the Applicant’s own risk. Qube and the Underwriters disclaim all liability whether in negligence or otherwise (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to persons who trade New Shares before receiving their holding statements, whether on the basis of confirmation of the allocation provided by Qube or the Share Registry or otherwise.
5.5 REcONcILIATIONIn any entitlement offer, investors may believe that they own more Existing Shares on the record date than they ultimately do. This may result in a need for reconciliation to ensure all Eligible Shareholders have the opportunity to receive their full Entitlement.
Qube may need to issue a small quantity of additional New Shares to ensure all Eligible Shareholders have the opportunity to receive their appropriate allocation of New Shares. The price at which these New Shares would be issued, if required, is the same as the Offer Price.
Qube also reserves the right to reduce the Entitlement or the number of New Shares allocated to Eligible Shareholders or persons claiming to be Eligible Shareholders, if their Entitlement claims prove to be overstated, if they or their nominees/custodians fail to provide information requested to substantiate their Entitlement claims, or if they are not Eligible Shareholders.

(d) the Underwriters will receive an underwriting fee of 1.25% and a management fee of 0.4% of the gross proceeds of the Entitlement Offer, plus an additional incentive fee of up to 0.25% payable at the sole discretion of Qube.

5.7 cONTINUOUS DIScLOSUREQube is a “disclosing entity” under the Corporations Act and is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, including the preparation of annual reports and half yearly reports.
Qube is required to notify ASX of information about specific events and matters as they arise for the purposes of ASX making that information available to the stock markets conducted by ASX. In particular, Qube has an obligation under the Listing Rules (subject to certain exceptions) to notify ASX immediately of any information of which it is or becomes aware which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of Qube Shares. That information is available to the public from ASX and can be accessed at www.asx.com.au. Some documents are required to be lodged with ASIC in relation to Qube. These documents may be obtained from, or inspected at, an ASIC office.
5.8 NO cOOLING OFF RIGHTSCooling off rights do not apply to an investment in New Shares. You cannot withdraw your Application once it has been made.
5.9 ROUNDING OF ENTITLEMENTSWhere fractions arise in the calculation of an Entitlement, they will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares.
5.10 NOT INVESTMENT ADVIcEThis Information Booklet and the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form is for information purposes only, is not a prospectus, disclosure document or other offering document under the Corporations Act or any other law and has not been lodged with ASIC. It is also not financial product or investment advice or a recommendation to acquire New Shares and has been prepared without taking into account your investment objectives, financial circumstances or particular needs. The Information Booklet should not be considered comprehensive and Qube is not licensed to provide financial product advice in respect of the New Shares. The information contained in this Information Booklet does not purport to contain all the information that you may require to evaluate a possible application for New Shares, nor does it purport to contain all the information which would be required in a prospectus

5 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (cONT.)
prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act. It should be read in conjunction with Qube’s other periodic statements and continuous disclosure announcements lodged with ASX. Before making an investment decision, you should consider the appropriateness of the information in this Information Booklet having regard to your own objectives, financial situation and needs and seek legal and taxation advice appropriate to your jurisdiction. If you have any questions about whether you should participate in the Entitlement Offer, you should seek professional financial advice before making any investment decision.
5.11 GOVERNING LAWThis Information Booklet, the Retail Entitlement Offer and the contracts formed on acceptance of the Entitlement and Acceptance Forms are governed by the laws applicable in New South Wales, Australia. Each applicant for New Shares submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales, Australia.
5.12 WITHDRAWAL OF THE ENTITLEMENT OFFERQube reserves the right to withdraw all or part of the Entitlement Offer and this Information Booklet at any time, subject to applicable laws, in which case Qube will refund Application Monies in relation to New Shares not already issued in accordance with the Corporations Act and without payment of interest. In circumstances where allotment under the Institutional Entitlement Offer has occurred, Qube may only be able to withdraw the Entitlement Offer with respect to New Shares to be issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree that any Application Monies paid by you to Qube will not entitle you to receive any interest and that any interest earned in respect of Application Monies will belong to Qube.
5.13 pRIVAcYAs a shareholder, Qube and the Share Registry have already collected certain personal information from you. If you apply for New Shares, Qube and the Share Registry may update that personal information or collect additional personal information. Such information may be used to assess your acceptance of the New Shares, service your needs as a shareholder, provide facilities and services that you request and carry out appropriate administration.
To do that, Qube and the Share Registry may disclose your personal information for purposes related to your shareholdings to their agents, contractors or third party service providers to whom they outsource services, in order to assess your application for New Shares, the Qube share register for ongoing administration of that register, printers and mailing houses for the purposes of preparation of the distribution of shareholder information and for handing of mail, or as otherwise under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
5.14 INELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDERSAll Shareholders who do not satisfy the criteria to be Eligible Retail Shareholders or Eligible Institutional Shareholders, are Ineligible Shareholders. Ineligible Shareholders are not entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer, unless Qube otherwise determines.
The restrictions upon eligibility to participate in the Entitlement Offer arise because Qube has determined, pursuant to Listing Rule 7.7.1(a) and section 9A(3)(a) of the Corporations Act, that it would be unreasonable to extend the Entitlement Offer to Ineligible Shareholders. This decision has been made after taking into account the number of non‑residents in Australia and New Zealand on the Qube register, the relatively small number and value of New Shares to which those Shareholders would otherwise be entitled and the potential costs of complying with legal and regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions in which the Ineligible Shareholders are located in relation to the Entitlement Offer.
Qube, in its absolute discretion, may extend the Entitlement Offer to any Shareholder if it is satisfied that the Entitlement Offer may be made to the Shareholder in compliance with all applicable laws. Qube, in its absolute discretion, reserves the right to determine whether a Shareholder is an Eligible Retail Shareholder, Eligible Institutional Shareholder or an Ineligible Shareholder. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Qube disclaims all liability in respect of such determination.
The price at which the Entitlements of Ineligible Shareholders will be sold is the Offer Price. Accordingly, Ineligible Shareholders will not receive any payment or value as a result of the issue of any of those New Shares they would have been entitled to subscribe for had they been eligible to participate in the Entitlement Offer.

Below is a general guide to the Australian income tax, goods and services tax (GST) and stamp duty implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer for Eligible Retail Shareholders that hold their New Shares or additional New Shares acquired under the Top Up Facility on capital account. In addition, the guide below applies only to Eligible Retail Shareholders who are Australian resident individuals, companies or complying superannuation entities who do not calculate gains and losses from Shares under the taxation of financial arrangement provisions.
The guide does not take account of the individual circumstances of particular Eligible Retail Shareholders and does not constitute tax advice. It does not purport to be a complete analysis of the potential tax consequences of the Retail Entitlement Offer and is intended as a general guide to the Australian tax implications. Eligible Retail Shareholders should seek advice from an appropriate professional advisor in relation to the tax implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer based on their own individual circumstances.
The comments below are based on the Australian tax law as it applies as at 9.00am (Sydney time) on Thursday, 7 May 2020. Other than as expressly discussed, the comments do not take into account or anticipate changes in Australian tax law or future judicial interpretations of law after this time unless otherwise specified. The comments also do not take into account tax legislation of any country other than Australia.
6.1 ISSUE OF ENTITLEMENTThe issue of the Entitlement will not in itself result in any amount being included in the assessable income of an Eligible Retail Shareholder.
6.2 EXERcISE OF ENTITLEMENT AND AppLYING FOR ADDITIONAL NEW SHARESAn Eligible Retail Shareholder will not derive any assessable income, or make any capital gain or capital loss at the time of exercising their Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer or acquiring additional New Shares under the Top Up Facility.
For Australian capital gains tax (CGT) purposes, New Shares will be taken to have been acquired on the day that an Eligible Retail Shareholder exercises their Entitlement and additional New Shares will be taken to have been acquired on the date the additional New Shares were issued to the Eligible Retail Shareholder. The cost base of each New Share and additional New Share will be equal to the Offer Price payable for each New Share and additional New Share respectively (plus any non‑deductible incidental costs the Eligible Retail Shareholder incurs in acquiring the New Shares and additional New Shares).
6.3 LApSE OF ENTITLEMENTIf an Eligible Retail Shareholder does not accept all or part of their Entitlement in accordance with the instructions set out above, then that Entitlement will lapse and the Eligible Retail Shareholder will not receive any consideration for their Entitlement that is not taken up. There should be no tax implications for an Eligible Retail Shareholder from the lapse of the Entitlement.
6.4 TAXATION IN RESpEcT OF DIVIDENDS ON NEW SHARESWhere dividends on a New Share are paid by Qube, those dividends will constitute assessable income of an Australian tax resident Eligible Retail Shareholder.
An Australian tax resident Eligible Retail Shareholder who is an individual or complying superannuation entity should include the dividend in their assessable income in the year the dividend is paid, together with any franking credit attached to that dividend. Such Eligible Retail Shareholder should be entitled to a tax offset equal to the franking credit attached to the dividend subject to being a ‘qualified person’ (refer to comments below). The tax offset can be applied to reduce the tax payable on the Eligible Retail Shareholder’s taxable income. Where the tax offset exceeds the tax payable on the Eligible Retail Shareholder’s taxable income, such Eligible Retail Shareholder should be entitled to a refund of the excess franking offsets.
A corporate Eligible Retail Shareholder is also required to include both the dividend and the associated franking credit as assessable income. A tax offset is then available up to the amount of the franking credit on the dividend. Excess franking credits received cannot give rise to a refund, but may be able to be converted into carry forward tax losses.
Where a dividend paid by Qube is unfranked, the Eligible Retail Shareholder will be required to include the unfranked amount in their assessable income and there will be no offset entitlement.
The tax outcomes described above do not apply in the case of an Eligible Retail Shareholder who is not a tax resident of Australia. Non‑resident shareholders will need to separately consider the tax implications of receiving dividends, franked or unfranked, on the New Shares.

6.5 NEW SHARES AND ADDITIONAL NEW SHARES HELD AT RISKThe benefit of franking credits can be denied where an Eligible Retail Shareholder is not a ‘qualified person’ in which case the Eligible Retail Shareholder will not be able to include an amount for the franking credits in their assessable income and will not be entitled to a tax offset.
Broadly, to be a qualified person, an Eligible Retail Shareholder must satisfy the holding period rule and, if necessary, the related payment rule. The holding period rule requires an Eligible Retail Shareholder to hold the New Shares and additional New Shares ‘at risk’ for at least 45 days during the qualification period – starting from the day after acquisition of the shares and ending 45 days after the share becomes ex‑dividend. The holding period rule only need to be satisfied once in respect of a particular share.
The dates the New Shares and additional New Shares are acquired and disposed of are ignored for the purposes of determining the 45 day period. In determining the length of time for which a particular share has been held the holding period rule applies on a ‘last in, first out’ basis. Any day on which an Eligible Retail Shareholder has a materially diminished risk of loss or opportunity for gain in respect of the New Shares or additional New Shares (e.g. entering into a contract to sell the New Shares or additional New Shares) will not be counted as a day on which the Eligible Retail Shareholder held the New Shares or additional New Shares ‘at risk’.
This holding period rule is subject to certain exceptions, including where the total franking offsets of an individual in a year of income do not exceed A$5,000.
The related payment rule applies where the Eligible Retail Shareholder has made, or is under an obligation to make, a payment that passes on the benefit of a dividend paid by Qube to another party. For each such dividend, the related payment rule requires the Eligible Retail Shareholder to have held the New Shares and additional New Shares at risk for a period commencing on the 45th day before, and ending on the 45th day after, the day the New Shares and additional New Shares become ex‑dividend in respect of that dividend. Practically, this should not impact Eligible Retail Shareholders who continue to hold New Shares and additional New Shares and also do not pass the benefit of the dividend to another person. Eligible Retail Shareholders should obtain their own tax advice to determine if these requirements have been satisfied.
A specific integrity rule prevents taxpayers from obtaining a tax benefit from additional franking credits where dividends are received as a result of “dividend washing”. That is, selling shares on an ex‑dividend basis (retaining the dividend entitlement) and then repurchasing the same parcel of shares on a cum‑dividend basis. Eligible Retail Shareholders should consider the impact of this measure given their own personal circumstances.
6.6 DISpOSAL OF NEW SHARES OR ADDITIONAL NEW SHARESThe disposal of New Shares or additional New Shares will constitute a disposal for CGT purposes.
On disposal of New Shares or additional New Shares, an Eligible Retail Shareholder will make a net capital gain if the capital proceeds received on disposal exceed the total cost base of the New Shares or additional New Shares. An Eligible Retail Shareholder will make a net capital loss if the capital proceeds are less than the total reduced cost base of the New Shares or additional New Shares.
Eligible Retail Shareholders that are individuals or complying superannuation entities and that have held their New Shares or additional New Shares for 12 months or more (excluding the date of acquisition and the date of disposal) at the time of disposal should be entitled to apply the applicable CGT discount factor to reduce the capital gain (after offsetting capital losses). The CGT discount factor is 50% for individuals and 33.33% for complying superannuation entities.
For the purpose of determining whether the New Shares have been held for 12 months or more (excluding the date of acquisition and the date of disposal), Eligible Retail Shareholders will be taken to have acquired them when they exercise their Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer. For the purpose of determining whether the additional New Shares acquired under the Top Up Facility have been held for 12 months or more (excluding the date of acquisition and the date of disposal), Eligible Retail Shareholders will be taken to have acquired them at the date the additional New Shares were issued.
Eligible Retail Shareholders that make a capital loss can only use that loss to offset other capital gains from other sources i.e. the capital loss cannot be used against taxable income on revenue account. However, if the capital loss cannot be used in a particular income year it can be carried forward to use in future income years, provided certain loss utilisation tests are satisfied.
6.7 GSTThe taking up of the New Shares and additional New Shares will be classified as a “financial supply” for Australian GST purposes. Accordingly, Australian GST will not be payable in respect of amounts paid for the acquisition of the New Shares or additional New Shares. Subject to certain requirements, there may be a restriction on the entitlement of Eligible Retail Shareholders to claim an input tax credit for any GST incurred on costs associated with the acquisition of New Shares or additional New Shares acquired under the Top Up Facility.
6.8 STAMp DUTYStamp duty will not be payable in respect of the taking up of New Shares or additional New Shares on the assumption no shareholder and associated person will hold an interest of 90% or more in Qube.

Pro rata accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer – Notification to ineligible
retail shareholders
On Thursday, 30 April 2020, Qube Holdings Limited (ABN 14 149 723 053) (Qube or the Company)
announced that it was conducting a fully underwritten accelerated non-renounceable pro rata entitlement
offer to eligible shareholders of 1 new ordinary share in Qube (New Share) for every 6.35 existing ordinary
shares in Qube (Existing Shares) held at 7:00pm (Sydney time) on Monday, 4 May 2020 (Record Date) to
raise approximately A$500 million (Entitlement Offer).
The proceeds of the Entitlement Offer will be used to provide additional balance sheet flexibility and capacity
to continue to pursue growth opportunities. More detail is provided in Qube's Investor Presentation lodged
with the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) on Thursday, 30 April 2020.
Merrill Lynch Equities (Australia) Limited and UBS AG, Australia Branch are Joint Lead Managers, Joint
Bookrunners and Joint Underwriters of the Entitlement Offer (the Joint Lead Managers).
What is the Entitlement Offer?
The Entitlement Offer comprises an institutional entitlement offer (Institutional Entitlement Offer) and an
offer to Eligible Retail Shareholders (as defined below) to participate on the same terms (Retail Entitlement
Offer). The Entitlement Offer is being made by the Company in accordance with section 708AA of the
Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Act) as modified by ASIC Corporations (Non-Traditional Rights Issue)
Instrument 2016/84 and ASIC Corporations (Disregarding Technical Relief) Instrument 2016/73, meaning that
no prospectus or other disclosure document needs to be prepared.
The Institutional Entitlement Offer has already closed and the results announced to the ASX on Friday, 1 May
2020. Qube has today lodged a retail offer booklet with the ASX, which sets out further details in respect of
the Retail Entitlement Offer (Retail Offer Booklet).

What is this notice?
This notice is to inform you about the Retail Entitlement Offer and to explain why you will not be able to
subscribe for New Shares under the Retail Entitlement Offer. This letter is not an offer to issue entitlements or
New Shares to you, nor an invitation for you to apply for entitlements or New Shares. You are not required
to do anything in response to this letter.
What is the Retail Entitlement Offer?
The Retail Entitlement Offer is an offer to Eligible Retail Shareholders (defined below) of an entitlement to
subscribe for 1 New Share for every 6.35 Existing Shares held at 7:00pm (Sydney time) on the Record Date,
at a price of A$1.95 (Offer Price) for each New Share (Entitlement). Documents relating to the Retail
Entitlement Offer were lodged with the ASX on Thursday, 7 May 2020 and are being mailed to Eligible Retail
Shareholders.
As with the Institutional Entitlement Offer, the Retail Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable. A number of New
Shares equal to the number that you would otherwise be entitled to subscribe for under the Retail Entitlement
Offer will be subscribed for by the Joint Lead Managers and sub-underwriters at the Offer Price (as defined
above). As a result, no amount will be payable by you and you will not otherwise receive any value for
Entitlements in respect of any New Shares that would have been offered to you if you were an Eligible Retail
Shareholder.
Who is eligible?
“Eligible Retail Shareholders” are Shareholders on the Record Date who:
a) are registered as holders of Existing Shares as at 7:00pm (Sydney time); b) have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand as noted on Qube’s share register or are a
Shareholder that Qube has otherwise determined is eligible to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer;
c) are not in the United States and are not a person (including nominees or custodians) acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States (to the extent such a person holds Existing Shares for the account or benefit of such person in the United States);
d) were not invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer and were not treated as an Ineligible Institutional Shareholder under the Institutional Entitlement Offer (other than as nominee or custodian, in each case in respect of other underlying holdings); and
e) are eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.
Why am I not eligible to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer?
Unfortunately, according to our records you do not satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Shareholder. In
compliance with ASX Listing Rule 7.7.1(b) and section 9A(3) of the Act, this notice is to inform you that under
the terms of the Entitlement Offer, you are not entitled to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer and as
such, you will not be offered any New Shares or Entitlements under the Retail Entitlement Offer. You will also
not be sent a copy of the Retail Offer Booklet.
The restrictions upon eligibility are due to a number of factors, including the legal limitations in some
countries, the relatively small number of shareholders there, the small number and value of Existing Shares
they hold and the potential cost of complying with regulatory requirements in those countries. Having given
consideration to these factors, Qube has determined that, pursuant to Listing Rule 7.7.1(a) of the ASX Listing
Rules and section 9A(3)(a) of the Act, it would be unreasonable to make offers to shareholders in any country
outside of Australia and New Zealand, having regard to:
a) the relatively small number of shareholders in the other jurisdictions where the Retail Entitlement Offer would be made;
b) the number and value of shares for which shareholders would otherwise have been entitled; and c) the costs of complying with the legal and regulatory requirements in each other jurisdiction where the
Retail Entitlement Offer would be made.

The Joint Lead Managers and each of their affiliates and related bodies corporate and each of their
respective directors, officers, partners, employees, advisers and agents disclaim any liability in respect of any
determination as to eligibility, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
As the Retail Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable, you will not receive any payment or value for
entitlements in respect of any New Shares that would have been offered to you if you were eligible. New
Shares equivalent to the number of New Shares you would have been entitled to if you were an Eligible
Retail Shareholder will be allocated to the Joint Lead Managers (in their capacity as Joint Underwriters) or to
persons from whom the Joint Lead Managers have procured subscriptions for New Shares, pursuant to the
underwriting arrangements between Qube and the Joint Lead Managers.
On behalf of the Company, we thank you for your continued support of Qube.
Yours sincerely,
Allan Davies
Chairman
Qube Holdings Limited
