Distribution Reinvestment Plan

(a real estate investment trust constituted on 7 September 2018 under the laws of the Republic of Singapore)
Managed by KBS US Prime Property Management Pte. Ltd.

ESTABLISHMENT OF DISTRIBUTION REINVESTMENT PLAN

DBS Bank Ltd. was the sole financial adviser and issue manager for the initial public offering of Prime US REIT.

KBS US Prime Property Management Pte. Ltd., as manager of Prime US REIT (the “Manager”), is pleased to announce the establishment of a distribution reinvestment plan (“DRP”), pursuant to which unitholders of Prime US REIT (“Unitholders”) may elect to receive new units in Prime US REIT (“Units”) in respect of all or, at the discretion of the Manager, part only of the cash amount of any distribution to which the DRP applies. The statement containing the terms and conditions of the DRP (the “Distribution Reinvestment Plan Statement”) is attached in the Appendix.

The DRP may be applied from time to time to any distribution declared by Prime US REIT as the Manager may determine in its absolute discretion. Participation in the DRP is optional and Unitholders may elect to participate in respect of part or all of their unitholdings. Unless the Manager has determined that the DRP will apply to any particular distribution, the distribution concerned will be paid in cash to Unitholders in the usual manner.

In connection with the allotment and issue of new Units under the DRP, applications will be made to Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the “SGX-ST”) for the listing and quotation of the new Units on the Main Board of the SGX-ST at the relevant time. The DRP may, at the discretion of the Manager, not be offered to Overseas Unitholders (as defined in the Distribution Reinvestment Plan Statement).

The DRP provides Unitholders with an opportunity to elect to receive distributions in the form of fully-paid new Units, instead of cash. This will enable Unitholders to increase their unitholdings in Prime US REIT without incurring brokerage fees, stamp duties (if any) and other related costs. The issue of new Units in lieu of cash distributions under the DRP will also strengthen Prime US REIT balance sheet, enhance its working capital reserves and improve the liquidity of the Units.

The Manager will make an announcement whenever it decides to apply the DRP to a particular distribution, and such announcement will contain, among others, (a) the procedures, timeline and other relevant details in relation to the application of the DRP to such distribution and (b) details on whether Prime US REIT is relying on a general mandate or specific Unitholders’ approval for the issue of new Units under the DRP.
