NEWS RELEASE

two Grade A office buildings in Sydney

• Start of an active portfolio reconstitution plan as acquisition recycles the capital unlocked from CICT's divestment of One George Street into higher- yielding assets

Singapore, 3 December 2021 - CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust Management Limited (CICTML or Manager), the manager of CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust (CICT or Trust), is pleased to announce that CICT has entered into a unit sale agreement with CLA Real Estate Holdings Pte. Ltd.1 (CLA) to acquire the units in two trusts that hold 66 Goulburn Street and 100 Arthur Street, two Grade A office buildings in the central business districts (CBD) of Sydney, Australia. This marks CICT's first inroad into Australia, its second overseas developed market after Germany.

The estimated aggregate purchase consideration is A$330.7 million (S$330.7 million2), which is based on the adjusted net asset value of the trusts, taking into account the aggregate agreed property value of A$672.0 million (S$672.0 million), other adjustments3 and other assets, and less the total amount of liabilities of the two trusts (including the external bank loans taken out by the two trusts). The respective agreed property value is negotiated on a willing buyer willing seller basis, in line with the two independent valuations4 commissioned separately by the Trustee of CICT and the Manager of CICT. CICT's total acquisition outlay5 is about A$381.0 million (S$381.0 million), subject to completion adjustments. The acquisition is expected to be completed in 1Q 2022.

1. CLA is a controlling shareholder of CapitaLand Investment Limited, which wholly owns CICTML. Hence, this transaction is an interested party transaction.
2. Conversion of AUD to SGD based on Bloomberg exchange rate of A$1.00 to S$1.00 as at 8 November 2021. Unless otherwise stated, all Australian dollar amounts in this news release have been translated into Singapore dollars based on this exchange rate.
3. Including the tenant incentives in respect of 66 Goulburn Street and 100 Arthur Street, which CLA (the Vendor) is responsible for and A$7.0 million rental guarantee for 100 Arthur Street. Such amounts will be adjusted in CICT's favour as part of the final completion adjustments for the purchase consideration.
4. As at 15 November 2021, Jones Lang LaSalle Advisory Services Pty Limited (JLL) - appointed by the Trustee of CICT - has valued the two properties at A$672.0 million, while CBRE Valuations Pty Limited (CBRE) - appointed by CICTML - has valued the two properties at A$672.0 million. Both sets of valuation included the tenant incentives in respect of 66 Goulburn Street and the A$7.0 million rental guarantee and the tenant incentives in respect of 100 Arthur Street. Without the rental guarantee sum, 100 Arthur Street is valued at A$365.0 million instead of A$372.0 million by both appraisers.
5. Total acquisition outlay of A$381.0 million comprises purchase consideration of A$330.7 million, other expenses of A$43.6 million, and acquisition fees of A$6.7 million payable in the form of Units.

On a pro forma annualised 1H 2021 distribution per unit (DPU) basis, assuming that CICT owns the two Sydney assets since 1 January 2021, the pro forma DPU accretion6 is expected to be 3.1%. CICT's pro forma adjusted net asset value per unit7 would be uplifted by 2.6% to S$2.07.

Located in Sydney CBD, 66 Goulburn Street is a 24-storey Grade A office building with ancillary retail space, and a basement car park. The building's energy-saving features include double-glazed windows and an intelligent lighting control system. With a central lift core, the building offers efficient and column free floor plate which ranges from 937 square metres to 975 square metres.

100 Arthur Street is a 23-storey Grade A office building with ancillary retail space sited in North Sydney CBD. It underwent a major refurbishment at a total cost of approximately A$17 million from 2019 to 2021 to enhance its lobby, entrance foyer, vacant floors and equipment upgrades. To improve the well-being of occupants, the building's end-of-trip facilities that encourage green mobility were also revamped.

Both properties are located within easy access of public transport and amenities. They have achieved sustainability ratings under the National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS)8, with 66 Goulburn Street rated 5.5-Star NABERS Energy and 4.5-Star NABERS Water, and 100 Arthur Street rated 4-Star NABERS Energy and 4.5-Star NABERS Water.

Ms Teo Swee Lian, Chairman of CICTML, said: "Despite the evolving pandemic situation, this is an opportune time for CICT to enter Australia, given its attractive office market underpinned by healthy economic fundamentals in the medium to long term, and expected recovery as the country emerges from COVID-19 restrictions. In particular, Sydney is witnessing major development and rejuvenation initiatives in line with its government-backed ambition to become a leading innovation and technology hub in the region. The acquisition will allow CICT to gain a foothold in Australia, one of Asia Pacific's largest developed markets, and open CICT to more opportunities to drive growth. We are also pleased to be investing in Sydney, which is striving to become a climate leader under its Sustainable Sydney 2030 community plan. The addition of the NABERS-rated properties complements CICT's 100% green rated portfolio and supports the Trust's sustainability commitment."

Mr Tony Tan, CEO of CICTML, said: "The acquisition is part of our continual efforts to reconstitute and optimise CICT's portfolio for sustainable returns and growth. It enables the recycling of capital from the divestment of our 50.0% interest in One George Street, at an exit yield of 3.17% per annum, into two higher-yielding office assets in Australia, at a combined

1. For illustrative purposes, the DPU before the acquisition is based on the annualised DPU of CICT for 1H 2021 and assuming the divestment of 50.0% interest in One George Street (the Divestment) had been completed on 1 January 2021. The DPU post-acquisition is based on the following assumptions: Loan-to-value of approximately 50% for the acquisition and the balance of the purchase consideration to be funded from the net sales proceeds from the Divestment. This resulted in a pro forma DPU of 10.54 cents or 3.1% accretion.
2. As at 30 June 2021 and assuming the Divestment and the acquisition were completed as at 30 June 2021.
3. NABERS is a national rating system that measures the environmental performance of Australian buildings. It measures the energy efficiency, water usage, waste management and indoor environment quality of a building or tenancy and its impact on the environment. A 6 Star rating demonstrates market-leading performance, while a 1 Star rating indicates considerable scope for improvement.

implied net property income yield of 5.2%9 per annum. The two assets are complementary to CICT's portfolio, and will enhance our portfolio resilience with further geographical and income diversification. Riding on the post-lockdown recovery of Australia's economy, we expect to ramp up occupancy and drive rental growth of the two assets through proactive lease management."

"Post-acquisition, CICT's overall portfolio property value will increase to S$22.4 billion10 by approximately 3% and our overseas portfolio exposure will increase to about 7% from 4% by portfolio property value. This is in line with our strategy to remain predominantly focused in Singapore, with up to 20% of portfolio property value in overseas developed markets. We will continue to leverage our sponsor's overseas investment and asset management platform and network to build scale in the developed markets where CICT has established footprint. At the same time, we will continue to pursue organic growth and inorganic opportunities from our sponsor and third parties in Singapore."

CICT's Singapore portfolio sees signs of strengthening operating metrics

CICT's malls in Singapore saw higher shoppers' traffic week-on-week comparing the last two weeks of November as dine-in and social gatherings were allowed for up to five people from 22 November 2021. The downtown malls saw marginally higher shoppers' traffic compared to the suburban malls. For the month of November 2021, shoppers' traffic to CICT's malls was 5% above October 2021.

As at 2 December 2021, Asia Square Tower 2, CICT's office building in Marina Bay has increased its committed occupancy rate to 94.3% from 82.8% as at 30 September 2021 after backfilling some spaces vacated in April 2021. CapitaSpring at Raffles Place also increased its committed occupancy to 88.3% from 83.1% as at 30 September 2021. The additional tenants are from the real estate services and energy & commodities sectors.

The resilience of CICT's portfolio could be seen in the improving shoppers' traffic at CICT's malls and strengthening committed occupancy at CICT's office buildings. The Manager will continue with its active portfolio reconstitution plan to generate sustainable income and higher distribution.

Prudent capital management

The acquisition is expected to be partially funded with Australian-dollar-denominated bank loans to achieve natural hedging. The net distributions from the two trusts holding the assets are also expected to be hedged. Post-acquisition, CICT's pro forma aggregate leverage is expected to be approximately 41%.

1. The Implied NPI is based on the annualised 1H 2021 NPI of the properties and taking into account the following assumptions: (a) the acquisition of the two trusts were completed on 1 January 2021 and held and operated to 30 June 2021; (b) including tenants' incentives for 66 Goulburn Street and 100 Arthur Street for 1H 2021 borne by the Vendor, as well as the rental guarantee for 100 Arthur Street; (c) the tenants and committed tenants of 100 Arthur Street as at 30 September 2021 were in place on 1 January 2021. Without the rental guarantee for 100 Arthur Street, the combined NPI yield would be 4.2%.
2. Enlarged portfolio property value includes existing portfolio value and the two Australian assets which are based on valuation as at 15 November 2021. The existing portfolio property value is based on valuation as at 31 December 2020 and assuming One George Street had been divested.
