FURTHER UPDATE ON ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY IN GUANGZHOU

The Consideration for the Acquisition of the Property (as mentioned below) has been adjusted to RMB4,047,151,009 based on the Completion Statement, which is less than the Initial Consideration of RMB4,060,109,130 (as announced on 7 April 2017).

Reference is made to the announcements of Link Real Estate Investment Trust (Link) dated 7 April 2017 (the Acquisition Announcement) and 11 May 2017 regarding, respectively, the Acquisition of the Property at No. 8 Huangsha Road, Liwan District, Guangzhou, the PRC and the Completion of the Acquisition. Capitalised terms herein have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Acquisition Announcement unless otherwise defined.

The Board of the Manager announces that, pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Consideration for the Acquisition (after the Final Net Assets Adjustment) has been adjusted to RMB4,047,151,009 based on the Completion Statement (which was reviewed by PwC, being the external auditor appointed for reviewing the Completion Statement). As the Consideration is less than the Initial Consideration of RMB4,060,109,130, the Vendor will pay the difference in cash to the Purchaser within five Business Days after 6 September 2017 (i.e. the date of the Completion Statement) in accordance with the terms of the SPA.
