STICKER SUPPLEMENT DATED JUNE 24, 2010

TO PROSPECTUS DATED JANUARY 7, 2010

This sticker supplement is part of, and should be read in conjunction with, our prospectus dated January 7, 2010. This sticker supplement replaces all prior sticker supplements to the prospectus. Capitalized terms used in this sticker supplement have the same meaning as in the prospectus unless otherwise defined herein. The terms “we,” “our,” “us” and “CNL Macquarie Global Growth Trust” include CNL Macquarie Global Growth Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

This information is presented as of June 24, 2010.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Distribution Policy

The following information describes the declaration of distributions by our board of directors and should be read in conjunction with the “PROSPECTUS SUMMARY – Our Distribution Policy” section beginning on page 13 of the prospectus and all similar information appearing throughout the prospectus, including the “DISTRIBUTION POLICY” section commencing on page 124 of the prospectus.

On June 24, 2010, our board of directors authorized a daily stock distribution equal to 0.000219178 of a share of common stock on each outstanding share of common stock (which is equal to an annualized distribution rate of 0.08 of a share based on a 365 days calendar year), payable to all common stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day (the “Distribution Rate and Payment Authorization”) commencing on July 1, 2010 and ending on September 30, 2010. The Distribution Rate and Payment Authorization is authorized to continue for each calendar quarter thereafter until terminated or amended by our board.

Our board declared a stock distribution rather than a cash distribution in order to retain its cash for investment opportunities. This enables the company to focus its investment strategy on commercial properties that may generate little or no cash flow initially, but have strong potential for long term capital appreciation.

Quarterly distributions will be calculated for each stockholder for each day the stockholder has been a stockholder of record in such quarter and the distribution shares will be issued and recorded in the stockholder records of the company on or about the 15th day of the calendar month immediately following the last day of the applicable calendar quarter. Fractional shares of common stock accruing as distributions will be rounded to the nearest hundredth when issued on the distribution date.

If a stockholder transfers all of its shares and is no longer a stockholder of the company, the accrued but unissued stock distribution in respect of such shares through the date such transfer is recorded on the stock records of the company will be issued to the transferee of such shares. If a stockholder transfers less than all of its shares and remains a stockholder of the company, the accrued but unissued stock distribution in respect of the transferred shares through the day prior to the date such transfer is recorded on the stock records of the company will be issued to the transferor and the transferee will receive the stock distribution in respect of its acquired shares from the date it acquired the shares. Transfers may take up to 30 days to be recorded on the stock records of the company.

The distribution of new common stock from the company to the recipient stockholders will be a non-taxable distribution. Each stockholder must allocate the tax basis of its old common stock, with respect to which the new common stock was distributed, to the old common stock and the new common stock in proportion to the fair market value of each on the distribution date. For the purpose of determining the basis of each share of old and new common stock, each stockholder should divide the total basis of its shares of old common stock by the total


number of shares of old and new common stock and allocate that amount to each share of old and new common stock. For purposes of determining short or long term capital gains, the new shares of common stock will have the same holding period as the old shares of common stock with respect to which they were distributed. We urge you, as a prospective stockholder, to consult your tax advisor regarding the specific tax consequences to you of an investment in our common stock and stock distributions you receive as a result of ownership of our shares of common stock.

Our board intends to evaluate this distribution policy on a quarterly basis and reserves the right to change the per share distribution amount or otherwise amend or terminate this distribution policy.

Redemption Plan

Our board of directors approved an amended and restated redemption plan (the “Redemption Plan”) to accommodate shares of common stock issued as stock distributions. A copy of the form of Redemption Plan is attached to this supplement as Appendix F.

The following information supersedes and replaces in full the first three paragraphs under “SUMMARY OF REDEMPTION PLAN” on page 122 of the prospectus.

Our Redemption Plan is designed to provide our eligible stockholders with limited, interim liquidity by enabling them to sell shares back to us prior to the Listing of our shares, if any. We will not pay any fees to our sponsors, advisor, directors or affiliates in connection with the redemption of our shares. Subject to certain restrictions discussed below, we may redeem shares, including fractional shares, from time to time, at the following prices:

 

   

92.5% of the purchase price paid per share for stockholders who have owned those shares for at least one year;

 

   

95.0% of the purchase price paid per share for stockholders who have owned those shares for at least two years;

 

   

97.5% of the purchase price paid per share for stockholders who have owned those shares for at least three years; and

 

   

for stockholders who have owned those shares for at least four years, a price determined by our board of directors but in no event less than 100% of the purchase price paid per share.

During the period of any public offering, the repurchase price will not exceed the then current public offering price for our shares (other than the price at which shares are sold under our Distribution Reinvestment Plan). Shares issued as stock distributions pursuant to our stock distribution policy shall be deemed to have a purchase price equal to the then current public offering price in effect on the date such shares are issued. The holding period for shares issued as stock distributions shall commence on the date such shares are issued.

Any stockholder who has held shares for not less than one year may present for our consideration all or any portion of such shares to us for redemption at any time. A stockholder may present fewer than all of his or her shares to us for redemption; provided, however, that the minimum number of shares that must be presented for redemption must be at least 25% of his or her shares. In addition, we have the right to waive the holding periods and redemption prices set forth above and the pro rata redemption requirements described below in the event of the death, permanent disability or bankruptcy of a stockholder or other exigent circumstances. Shares that are redeemed in connection with the death, permanent disability, bankruptcy of a stockholder or other exigent circumstances will be redeemed at the lesser of the then current offering price or the price at which the investor purchased such shares while the share redemption program is in effect and sufficient funds are available. In addition, we, in our sole discretion, may redeem such shares prior to the redemption of any other shares. Further, if a stockholder submits a redemption request to the redemption agent to sell shares to the Company, the redemption request shall be deemed to also include a request to sell all the shares issued (or issuable as of the end of the quarter in which the redemption request was submitted) as stock distributions thereon; and, if any such shares issued as stock distributions have not

 

2


been held for at least one year, the Company shall waive the holding period for such shares, which holding period shall be deemed to be one year for purposes of calculating the repurchase price. Except for the holding periods, redemption prices and redemption timing, any shares redeemed pursuant to the exercise of this authority will be otherwise subject to the procedures and limitations in the Redemption Plan. There is no assurance that there will be sufficient funds available for redemption or that we will exercise our discretion to redeem such shares and, accordingly, a stockholder’s shares may not be redeemed. Factors that our board of directors, in its discretion, will consider in making our determinations to redeem shares include:

 

   

whether such redemption impairs our capital or operations;

 

   

whether an emergency makes such redemption not reasonably practical;

 

   

whether any governmental or regulatory agency with jurisdiction over us demands such action for the protection of our stockholders;

 

   

whether such redemption would be unlawful; and

 

   

whether such redemption, when considered with all other redemptions, sales, assignments, transfers and exchanges of our shares, could prevent us from qualifying as a REIT for tax purposes.

Risk Factors

The following new risk factor supplements and should be read in conjunction with the section of the prospectus entitled “Risk Factors” which commences on page 23 of the prospectus.

The interest of later investors in our common stock will be diluted as a result of our stock distribution policy.

Our board of directors has authorized a stock distribution on the outstanding shares of all common stockholders of record as of the close of business each day commencing on July 1, 2010, payable quarterly. This distribution policy will continue until terminated or amended by our board of directors. We intend to buy assets that have little or no operating cash flows. While our objective is to acquire assets that appreciate in value, there can be no assurance that assets we acquire will appreciate in value. Furthermore, we do not currently intend to change our $10.00 per share public offering price. Therefore, investors who purchase our shares early in this offering, as compared with later investors, will receive more shares for the same cash investment as a result of this stock distribution policy. Because they own more shares, upon a sale or liquidation of the company, these early investors will receive more sales proceeds or liquidating distributions relative to their invested capital compared to later investors. Furthermore, unless our assets appreciate in an amount sufficient to offset the dilutive effect of the prior stock distributions, the net asset value per share for later investors purchasing our stock will be below the net asset value per share of earlier investors.

Status of Offering

We commenced our initial public offering of shares of our common stock in October 2009. Until our receipt and acceptance of subscriptions aggregating at least $2 million, all subscription proceeds were placed in escrow pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement with UMB Bank, N.A. As of April 23, 2010, we satisfied the conditions of this escrow. As of April 26, 2010, we had accepted investors’ subscriptions to this offering received through April 23, 2010, at which time their funds were released from escrow and we commenced operations.

Form of Subscription Agreement – Appendix C

Attached to this sticker supplement as Appendix C is an updated form of subscription agreement which replaces the form of subscription agreement contained in the Prospectus dated January 7, 2010. The form of subscription agreement was updated as a result of the closing of escrow.

Plan of Distribution

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Investments through IRA Accounts

Community National Bank (“CNB”) has agreed to act as an IRA custodian for our stockholders who have or desire to establish with CNB an IRA, SEP or certain other tax-deferred accounts or transfer or rollover existing accounts. Such agreement is subject to change and terminable upon 90 days notice by CNB or the Company. We will pay the annual maintenance fee for the calendar year in which a subscriber first purchases our Shares through an investor account with CNB unless such annual maintenance fee has already been paid by one or more third parties prior to the purchase of any Shares through an investor account with CNB. Subscribers who choose CNB as IRA custodian are responsible for paying subsequent annual maintenance fees and any other fees for such accounts. Our payment of the annual maintenance fee will be treated as a purchase price adjustment and result in a lower tax basis in the shares purchased by the IRA. In some cases, the purchase price adjustment may be shared among investments purchased for the account. Subscribers who choose a different IRA custodian are responsible for paying annual maintenance fees and other fees related to such account. Further information as to these custodial services is available through our Managing Dealer or a participating broker.

Macquarie’s main business focus is making returns by providing a diversified range of services to clients. Macquarie acts on behalf of institutional, corporate and retail clients and counterparties around the world.

Macquarie is listed in Australia on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) and is regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority, the Australian banking regulator, as the owner of Macquarie Bank Limited (“MBL”), an authorized deposit taker.

Macquarie History

Macquarie takes its origins from the merchant bank Hill Samuel Australia (“HSA”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hill Samuel & Co. Limited, London. Established in Australia in 1969, it began operations in Sydney in January 1970 with only three staff. In 1981, in response to changes evolving from the deregulation of financial markets, HSA commenced work on a proposal to become a trading bank. Authority for HSA to become Macquarie Bank Limited (“MBL”) was given in 1985, making it only the second private trading bank to be established in Australia this past century. MBL adopted its name from Governor Lachlan Macquarie, a leading pioneer responsible for transforming the early settlement in Australia from a penal colony into a dynamic economy.

MBL took over all of HSA’s business operations and opened a retail branch in March 1985 in Sydney. MBL opened a trading bank branch in Melbourne a few months later and in Brisbane in November 1986. On July 29, 1996, MBL listed its fully paid ordinary shares on the ASX, and on October 30, 1996 entered the ASX’s All Ordinaries Index with a market capitalization of approximately A$1.3 billion2. In October 2007, MBL security holders and option holders and the Federal Court of Australia approved the creation of Macquarie Group Limited and the restructure of MBL into a non-operating holding company structure.

As noted in the Notes to the Financial Statements of Macquarie DDR Trust for the year ended June 30, 2009, at June 30, 2009 there was a significant uncertainty with regard to Macquarie DDR Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern. To date no lender has enforced repayment of the amount owed under these loan facilities.

More detail of operating results is provided in Appendix II as part of Table III – Operating Results of Prior Programs.

We will provide, upon request to us and without charge, a copy of the most recent annual reports filed with the ASX by Charter Hall Retail REIT5, Charter Hall Office REIT5 and Macquarie DDR Trust; or filed with the Singapore Exchange by Starhill Global REIT6.

APPENDIX F

FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED REDEMPTION PLAN

The form of amended and restated redemption plan that follows this page replaces in its entirety the form of redemption plan included as Appendix F in the Prospectus dated January 7, 2010. The form of redemption plan was updated in connection with the adoption of a stock distribution policy by our board of directors.


FORM OF

AMENDED AND RESTATED REDEMPTION PLAN

CNL MACQUARIE GLOBAL GROWTH TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), has adopted an Amended and Restated Redemption Plan (the “Redemption Plan”) by which shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) may be repurchased by the Company from stockholders subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.

1. Redemption Price. The Company’s Redemption Plan is designed to provide eligible stockholders with limited, interim liquidity by enabling them to sell Shares back to the Company prior to the listing of the Shares on a national securities market. Subject to certain restrictions discussed below, the Company may repurchase Shares (including fractional Shares), from time to time, at the following prices:

 

  (i) 92.5% of the purchase price paid per Share for stockholders who have owned those Shares for at least one year;

 

  (ii) 95.0% of the purchase price paid per Share for stockholders who have owned those Shares for at least two years;

 

  (iii) 97.5% of the purchase price paid per Share for stockholders who have owned those Shares for at least three years; and

 

  (iv) a price determined by the Company’s board of directors, but in no event less than 100.0% of the purchase price paid per Share, for stockholders who have owned those Shares for at least four years.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the period of any public offering, the repurchase price will not exceed the then current public offering price for the Shares. For purposes of this Redemption Plan, Shares issued as a stock distribution will be deemed to have a purchase price equal to the then current public offering price in effect on the date such Shares are issued, which is the date such Shares are recorded in the Company’s stock register by its transfer agent (the “Issue Date”).

For purposes of calculating the ownership periods set forth above, if a stockholder purchased Shares for economic value from a prior stockholder (a “Resale”), the purchasing stockholder’s period of ownership for such Shares shall commence on the date the purchasing stockholder purchased the Shares from the prior stockholder. For a transfer of ownership that is not considered a Resale, the stockholder’s period of ownership for such Shares shall commence on the date of the acquisition of Shares by the original stockholder. If a stockholder received Shares in respect of a stock distribution, the stockholder’s period of ownership for such Shares shall commence on the Issue Date.

With respect to redemption requests made in connection with Shares acquired at multiple points in time, the pricing associated with the Shares held for the longest period of time shall be applied first, until such time as all Shares purchased at such point in time have been redeemed. At such time, pricing associated with the remaining Shares then held for the next applicable longest period of time shall be applied, and so on.

 

F-1


2. Redemption of Shares. Any stockholder who has held Shares for not less than one year (other than the Company’s advisor) may present for the Company’s consideration all or any portion of his or her Shares for redemption at any time, in accordance with the procedures outlined herein. A stockholder may present fewer than all of his or her Shares to the Company for redemption, provided, however, that the minimum number of Shares which must be presented for redemption shall be at least 25% of his or her Shares.

At such time, the Company may, at its sole option and to the extent it has sufficient funds available, choose to redeem Shares presented for redemption for cash. Factors that the Company will consider in making its determination to redeem Shares include, but are not limited to:

 

  (i) whether such redemption impairs the Company’s capital or operations;

 

  (ii) whether an emergency makes such redemption not reasonably practical;

 

  (iii) whether any governmental or regulatory agency with jurisdiction over the Company so demands for such action for the protection of the Company’s stockholders;

 

  (iv) whether such redemption would be unlawful; or

 

  (v) whether such redemption, when considered with all other redemptions, sales, assignments, transfers and exchanges of the Shares, could cause direct or indirect ownership of the Shares to become concentrated to an extent which would prevent the Company from qualifying as a real estate investment trust for tax purposes.

If the Company elects to redeem Shares, the conditions and limitations described herein would apply. The full amount of the proceeds from the sale of Shares under the reinvestment plan (the “Reinvestment Proceeds”) attributable to any calendar quarter may be used to redeem Shares presented for redemption during such quarter. In addition, the Company may, at the Company’s discretion, use up to $100,000 per calendar quarter of the proceeds of any public offering of the Company’s common stock for redemptions. Any amount of offering proceeds which is available for redemptions, but which is unused, may be carried over to the next succeeding calendar quarter for use in addition to the amount of offering proceeds and Reinvestment Proceeds that would otherwise be available for redemptions. At no time during a 12-month period, however, may the number of Shares the Company redeems (if the Company determines to redeem Shares) exceed 5% of the weighted average number of Shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during such 12-month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Redemption Plan, no Shares shall be redeemed under the Redemption Plan on any date upon which the Company pays any dividend or other distribution with respect to the Shares.

Further, the Company has the right to waive the holding periods and redemption prices set forth in Section 1 above and the pro rata redemption requirements under Section 3 below, in the event of the death, permanent disability or bankruptcy of a stockholder or other exigent circumstances (individually and collectively, “Exigent Circumstances”). If the Company determines to permit any such redemption for Exigent Circumstances, notwithstanding anything

 

F-2


contained in this Redemption Plan to the contrary, the price at which the Shares may be redeemed shall be the lesser of (a) the then-current offering price or (b) the price at which such Shares were purchased. In addition, the Company, in its sole discretion, may redeem such Shares prior to the redemption of any other Shares. In addition, if a stockholder submits a redemption request to the redemption agent to sell Shares to the Company due to Exigent Circumstances or otherwise, the redemption request shall be deemed to also include a request to sell all the Shares issued (or issuable on the Issue Date following the quarter in which the redemption request was submitted) as stock distributions thereon; and, if any such Shares issued as stock distributions have not been held for at least one year, the Company shall waive the holding period for such Shares, which holding period shall be deemed to be one year for purposes of calculating the repurchase price. Except for the holding periods, redemption prices and redemption timing, any Shares redeemed pursuant to the exercise of this authority will be otherwise subject to the procedures and limitations set forth in this Redemption Plan. There is no assurance that there will be sufficient funds available for redemption or that the Company will exercise its discretion to redeem such Shares and, accordingly, a stockholder’s Shares may not be redeemed.

The Company may terminate the Redemption Plan in the event that a secondary market for the Company’s Shares develops.

3. Insufficient Funds. In the event there are insufficient funds to redeem all of the Shares for which redemption requests have been submitted, and the Company determines to redeem Shares, the Company will redeem Shares on a pro rata basis at the end of each quarter; provided, however, with respect to Shares being redeemed by a stockholder due to Exigent Circumstances under Section 2 above, the Company, in its sole discretion, may waive the pro rata requirements for the redemption of such Shares and repurchase such Shares in full, to the extent funds are available, before other Shares are repurchased pro rata at the end of each quarter. With regard to a stockholder whose Shares are not redeemed due to insufficient funds in that quarter, the redemption request will be retained by the Company, unless withdrawn by the stockholder in accordance with this Section 3, and such Shares will be redeemed in subsequent quarters as funds become available and before any subsequently received redemption requests are honored. Stockholders will not relinquish their Shares of common stock to the Company until such time as the Company commits to redeem such Shares. Commitments to redeem Shares will be made at the end of each quarter and will be communicated to each stockholder who has submitted a request in writing. The applicable period of time under Section 1 above for holding Shares being redeemed on a pro rata basis in subsequent quarters under this Section 3 shall include the time up to the end of the quarter in which the Company commits to redeem such Shares. Until such time as the Company redeems the Shares, a stockholder may withdraw its redemption request as to any remaining Shares not redeemed by requesting from the Company a redemption change form, completing the form and delivering it to the Company by facsimile transmission to the facsimile number indicated on the form (subject to such stockholder receiving an electronic confirmation of such transmission) or by mail to the mailing address indicated on the form. Upon receipt of the redemption change form, the Company will treat the initial redemption request cancelled as to any Shares not redeemed in prior quarters.

4. Excess Funds. If the full amount of funds available for redemptions in any given quarter exceeds the amount necessary for redemptions, the remaining amount may be held for

 

F-3


subsequent redemptions unless such amount is sufficient to make an investment in a property or other permitted investment (directly or through a joint venture), is used to repay outstanding indebtedness or is used for other corporate purposes.

5. Redemption Requests. A stockholder who wishes to have his or her Shares redeemed must mail or deliver a written request to the redemption agent, which is currently Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., on a redemption form provided by the Company, executed by the stockholder, its trustee or authorized agent. The redemption form can be obtained by a stockholder by calling the redemption agent, the Company, the stockholder’s financial advisor or by accessing the Company’s website. The redemption agent at all times will be registered or exempt from registration as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission and each state securities commission. Within 30 Business Days (as defined below) following the redemption agent’s receipt of the stockholder’s written request that is not a redemption form, the redemption agent will forward to such stockholder the redemption form necessary to effect the redemption. The redemption agent will effect such redemption for the calendar quarter, provided that it receives the properly completed redemption form relating to the Shares to be redeemed from the stockholder at least 15 Business Days prior to the last day of the current calendar quarter and has sufficient funds available to redeem the Shares. The effective date of any redemption will be the last date during a quarter during which the redemption agent receives the properly completed redemption form; provided, however, no redemption shall be effective on any date upon which the Company pays any dividend or other distribution with respect to the Shares and, if necessary, the effective date of any such redemption shall be delayed to the next Business Day on which no such dividend or other distribution is paid to comply with this proviso. As a result, the Company anticipates that, assuming sufficient funds are available, redemptions will be paid no later than 30 days after the quarterly determination of the availability of funds for redemption. “Business Day” means any day except Saturday, Sunday, or any day commercial banks are closed in Boston, Massachusetts, or Kansas City, Missouri pursuant to federal or state law.

Upon the redemption agent’s receipt of notice for redemption of Shares, the redemption price will be based on such terms as the Company shall determine. As set forth in Section 1 above, the redemption price for Shares of the Company’s common stock will be based on the length of time such Shares have been held and the price for which such Shares were issued, which amount will never exceed the then-current offering price of the Company’s common stock.

6. Amendment or Suspension of the Plan. The redemption price paid to stockholders for Shares of common stock the Company redeems may vary over time. Our board of directors will announce any price adjustment and the time period of its effectiveness as a part of its regular communications with stockholders. The Company will provide at least 15 days advance notice prior to effecting a price adjustment: (i) in the Company’s annual or quarterly reports; or (ii) by means of a separate mailing accompanied by disclosure in a current or periodic report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. While the Company is engaged in an offering, the Company will also include this information in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement as required under federal securities laws.

The board of directors, in its sole discretion, may amend, suspend or terminate the Redemption Plan at any time if it determines that such amendment, suspension or termination is in the Company’s best interests. The board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Redemption Plan if:

 

  (i) it determines, in its sole discretion, that the Redemption Plan impairs the Company’s capital or operations;

 

  (ii) it determines, in its sole discretion, that an emergency makes the Redemption Plan not reasonably practical;

 

  (iii) any governmental or regulatory agency with jurisdiction over the Company so demands for the protection of the stockholders;

 

  (iv) it determines, in its sole discretion, that the Redemption Plan would be unlawful;

 

  (v) it determines, in its sole discretion, that redemptions under the Redemption Plan, when considered with all other sales, assignments, transfers and exchanges of the Shares, could cause direct or indirect ownership of the Shares to become concentrated to an extent which would prevent the Company from qualifying as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code; or

 

  (vi) it determines, in its sole discretion, that such amendment, suspension or termination would be in the Company’s best interest.

If the Company’s board of directors amends, suspends or terminates the Redemption Plan, the Company will provide stockholders with at least 15 days advance notice prior to effecting such amendment, suspension or termination: (i) in the Company’s annual or quarterly reports; or (ii) by means of a separate mailing accompanied by disclosure in a current or periodic report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. While the Company is engaged in an offering, the Company will also include this information in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the registration statement as required under federal securities laws. The Redemption Plan will terminate, and the Company no longer shall accept Shares for redemption, if and when its Shares are listed on a national securities market.
