ANNOUNCEMENT

APPLICATION OF DISTRIBUTION REINVESTMENT PLAN FOR THE 2QFY22/23 DISTRIBUTION PERIOD ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2022

26 October 2022 - Mapletree Industrial Trust Management Ltd., as manager (the "Manager") of Mapletree Industrial Trust ("MIT"), wishes to announce that the distribution reinvestment plan ("DRP") will apply to the distribution of 3.36 Singapore cents per unit in MIT ("Unit") in relation to the Second Quarter Financial Year 2022/2023 from 1 July 2022 to 30 September 2022 ("2QFY22/23 Distribution"). The 2QFY22/23 Distribution of 3.36 Singapore cents per Unit comprises a taxable income component of 2.40 Singapore cents per Unit, a tax-exempt income component of 0.89 Singapore cent per Unit and other gain component of 0.07 Singapore cent per Unit.

The DRP provides unitholders of MIT ("Unitholders") with the option to receive their distributions, either in the form of Units or cash or a combination of both. This will enable Unitholders to acquire new Units without incurring additional transaction related costs. The issue of Units in lieu of cash distributions under the DRP will strengthen MIT's balance sheet, help finance the progressive funding needs of ongoing development project and accord MIT greater financial flexibility to pursue growth opportunities.

Units under the DRP will be issued under the general unit issue mandate obtained from Unitholders at the Annual General Meeting of MIT held on 19 July 2022.

The issue price of each new Unit under the DRP will be set at 1.0% discount to the adjusted volume-weighted average traded price1 per Unit ("adjusted VWAP") for all trades on Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the "SGX-ST") for each of the Market Days during the period of 10 Market Days prior to and ending on the record date (the "Record Date") 2.

The terms and conditions of the DRP are contained in the DRP Statement, which is available on MIT's website: www.mapletreeindustrialtrust.com/drp.

The adjusted VWAP is computed based on the volume weighted average traded price per Unit of all trades on the SGX-ST for each of the Market Days during the period of 10 Market Days prior to and ending on the Record Date and subtracting the 2QFY22/23 Distribution for each of the Market Days prior to the first day of "ex-distribution" trading.

"Record Date" means the date to be determined by the Manager on which the register of Unitholders will be closed for the purpose of determining the entitlements of Unitholders to a distribution.

DRP documents will be sent to Unitholders registered in the Depository Register3 as at the Record Date on Thursday, 3 November 2022. Only Unitholders with Singapore registered addresses will be eligible to participate in the DRP.

Unitholders who wish to participate in the DRP and do not receive the DRP documents within three Market Days4 after the expected date of despatch on Wednesday, 9 November 2022 may obtain a copy from the Unit Registrar of MIT, Boardroom Corporate & Advisory Services Pte. Ltd., 1 Harbourfront Avenue, #14-07 Keppel Bay Tower, Singapore 098632 (Telephone number: +65 6536 5355).

The SGX-ST has granted MIT a waiver from Rule 862(5) of the Listing Manual of the SGX-ST ("Listing Manual"), which requires the payment date for distributions under the DRP to be made not less than 30 Market Days, but not more than 35 Market Days, after the Record Date. MIT has obtained clearance from The Central Depository (Pte) Limited to allow the 2QFY22/23 Distribution to be made earlier than the minimum timeframe required under the Listing Manual so as not to unnecessarily delay the payment of distribution, which is in accordance to the timetable below.

The Manager will announce further details on the DRP for the 2QFY22/23 Distribution, including the issue price of new Units, in due course.

Important Notice

The value of the Units and the income derived from them may fall as well as rise. Units are not obligations of, deposits in, or guaranteed by the Manager, or any of its affiliates. An investment in the Units is subject to investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

Investors have no right to request the Manager to redeem their Units while the Units are listed. It is intended that Unitholders of MIT may only deal in their Units through trading on the SGX-ST. Listing of the Units on the SGX-ST does not guarantee a liquid market for the Units.

The past performance of MIT is not necessarily indicative of the future performance of MIT.
