  CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust Management Limited, as manager of CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust ("CICT", and the manager of CICT, the "Manager") wishes to announce that the following agreements have been entered into on 18 April 2022 in respect of the following properties of CICT:

  • (a) a new service agreement between CICT and SP Sustainability & Engineering Pte. Ltd.

  • (b) a new service agreement between RCS Trust and SembWaste Pte. Ltd. ("SembWaste"), a subsidiary of Temasek (the "SembWaste Agreement"), pursuant to which SembWaste will provide refuse management and recycling services (the "Services") at Raffles City Singapore for a period of seven years (inclusive of an option to renew for a further term of three years) commencing on 1 May 2022 (the "SembWaste Agreement Period"); and

  • (c) a lease agreement between CapitaLand Commercial Trust ("CCT") and Real Tasty Pte. Ltd. ("Twyst"), an associate of Temasek (the "Twyst Lease"), in respect of the premises at a unit on level 2 of Asia Square Tower 2 ("AST2") for a period of three years commencing on 23 May 2022 (the "Twyst Lease Period").

• 2. DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS

  Under Chapter 9 of the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST (the "Listing Manual"), where an entity at risk (as defined in the Listing Manual) proposes to enter into a transaction with an interested person (as defined in the Listing Manual) and the value of the transaction (either in itself or when 1

aggregated with the value of other transactions, each of a value equal to or greater than S$100,000, with the same interested person during the same financial year) is equal to or exceeds three per cent. (3%) but is less than five per cent. (5%), of the latest audited consolidated Net Tangible Asset ("NTA") of the issuer and its subsidiaries (the "Issuer Group"), an immediate announcement of the transaction must be made and if the value is equal to or exceeds five per cent. (5%) of the Issuer Group's latest audited consolidated NTA, approval of the unitholders of the issuer must be obtained.

Based on the information available to the Manager as at the date of this announcement, Temasek, through its subsidiaries and associated companies, has an aggregate interest in 1,593,626,736 units in CICT ("Units"), representing approximately 24.05%1 of the total number of Units in issue, and is therefore regarded as a "controlling unitholder" of CICT under both the Listing Manual and Appendix 6 of the Code on Collective Investment Schemes issued by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (the "Property Funds Appendix"). In addition, as the Manager is an indirect subsidiary of Temasek, Temasek is therefore regarded as a "controlling shareholder" of the Manager under both the Listing Manual and the Property Funds Appendix.

For the purposes of Chapter 9 of the Listing Manual and Paragraph 5 of Appendix 6 of the Property Funds Appendix:

• (a) SP, being a subsidiary of Temasek;

• (b) SembWaste, being a subsidiary of Temasek; and

• (c) Twyst, being an entity in which Temasek holds an interest of 30% or more

are each considered an "associate" of (i) a "controlling unitholder" of CICT and (ii) a "controlling shareholder" of the Manager, and therefore an "interested person" (for the purposes of the Listing Manual) and "interested party" (for the purposes of the Property Funds Appendix) of CICT. Each of CICT, CCT and RCS Trust is regarded as an "entity at risk" for these purposes.

Therefore, the entry into each of the SP Agreement, the SembWaste Agreement and the Twyst Lease constitutes an "interested person transaction" under Chapter 9 of the Listing Manual as well as an "interested party transaction" under the Property Funds Appendix. The SP Agreement, the SembWaste Agreement and the Twyst Lease (collectively, the "Interested Person Transactions"), when aggregated with the existing interested person transactions with Temasek and its subsidiaries and associates (excluding CapitaLand Investment Limited and its subsidiaries and associates) (the "Temasek Group") would exceed 3.0% of the latest audited net tangible assets ("NTA") of CICT, and accordingly under Rule 905 of the Listing Manual, the Manager must make an announcement of such interested person transactions.

3. CERTAIN PRINCIPAL TERMS OF THE INTERESTED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

3.1 Key Terms of the SP Agreement

Under the SP Agreement, the DC Services provided would include the connection of the piping system under the district cooling system in the Tampines central area as well as the provision of chilled water supply for distribution to air handling units at Tampines Mall and its tenants.

Pursuant to the SP Agreement, an estimated total sum of S$64,430,100 is payable by CICT to SP as fees for the DC Services, during the SP Agreement Period (the "SP Fees").

The SP Fees is based on the chilled water tariff charged by SP, which comprises the (i) cost of service connection facility, (ii) fixed contract capacity rate, (iii) flexible contract capacity rate and,

1 Based on a total of 6,625,274,990 Units as at 18 April 2022.

2

(iv) usage unit rate. The rates referred to in the foregoing (ii), (iii) and (iv) are computed using market rates and publicly available information such as the electrical contracted charge, consumer price index, labour cost index and water charge.

Accordingly, the Manager is of the view that the SP Agreement is on normal commercial terms and not prejudicial to the interests of CICT and its minority unitholders.

• 3.2 Key Terms of the SembWaste Agreement

  The Services provided under the SembWaste Agreement includes the provision of compactor systems, refuse collection and disposal services for all compactors, recycling receptacles and recycling programme at Raffles City Singapore. Pursuant to the SembWaste Agreement, an estimated total sum of S$1,076,000 is payable by RCS Trust to SembWaste as fees for the Services (including provisional ad-hoc services), during the SembWaste Agreement Period (the "SembWaste Fees"). SembWaste was appointed following an open tender process during which the pricing and quality of services offered by SembWaste was reviewed and evaluated against other service providers.

  Accordingly, the Manager is of the view that the SembWaste Agreement is on normal commercial terms and not prejudicial to the interests of CICT and its minority unitholders.

• 3.3 Key Terms of the Twyst Lease

  Pursuant to the Twyst Lease, an estimated aggregate sum of approximately S$284,000 (based on fixed and turnover rents) is payable by Twyst during the Twyst Lease Period ("Twyst Rent"). The Twyst Rent was negotiated at arm's length after taking into consideration, inter alia, the term of the lease, size, condition and location of the premises. An independent valuer was appointed to provide an independent opinion on the terms of the Twyst Lease and opined that the Twyst Rent as at the date of commencement of the Twyst Lease is at market level and the other key commercial terms of the Twyst Lease are normal commercial terms and in accordance with market standards.

  Accordingly, the Manager is of the view that the Twyst Lease is on normal commercial terms and not prejudicial to the interests of CICT and its minority unitholders.

• 4. RATIONALE FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE INTERESTED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

• 4.1 Rationale and Benefit of the SP Agreement

  The district cooling system is part of a pilot project to transform Tampines into an eco-town by 2024, in line with the Singapore Green Plan 2030. A distributed district cooling network feasibility study was conducted on existing buildings in Tampines Central and concluded that the centralised cooling system would reduce energy consumption and curb carbon emissions. Tampines Mall is one of the seven buildings which have been identified for this pilot project. The DC Services provided under the SP Agreement will allow Tampines Mall to be part of the district cooling system in Tampines and it is expected that Tampines Mall will benefit from reduced energy consumption going forward.

• 4.2 Rationale and Benefit of the SembWaste Agreement

  The provision of the Services is critical to the operations of Raffles City Singapore as the waste generated through the daily commercial activities needs to be removed and disposed in accordance with National Environment Agency regulations. In addition, the provision of recycling services will assist Raffles City Singapore to implement initiatives and recycling programmes to 3

reduce waste and increase recyclables. This is a critical step to align with the national sustainability roadmap.

• 4.3 Rationale and Benefit of the Twyst Lease

  Twyst will be a new tenant at the food garden in AST2, thereby increasing the tenant occupancy rate. The inclusion of Twyst will add vibrancy to the food garden and enhance the food and beverage offerings available to tenants of AST2.

• 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE STATEMENT

  The Audit Committee has considered the terms of each of the SP Agreement, the SembWaste Agreement and the Twyst Lease, and is of the view that each transaction is on normal commercial terms and is not prejudicial to the interests of CICT and its minority unitholders.
