If you are unable to attend the Meetings, you are encouraged to appoint a proxy to attend and vote on your behalf.

Abacus Storage King - Level 13, 77 Castlereagh Street, Sydney NSW 2000 AUSTRALIA +61 2 9253 8600 Abacus Storage Funds Management Limited ACN 108 324 834 ASFL 277357 as Responsible Entity of Abacus Storage Property Trust ARSN 111629 559 | Abacus Storage Operations Limited ACN 112 457 075.

abacusgroup.com.au

A Securityholder entitled to attend and vote at the Meetings is entitled to appoint a proxy. A Securityholder entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or the number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. A proxy need not be a Securityholder of Abacus Storage King. A Proxy Form is provided with this Notice of Meetings.

You can direct your proxy how to vote by following the instructions on the Proxy Form. Securityholders are encouraged to direct their proxy how to vote on each item of business.

Any directed proxies that are not voted on a poll at the Meetings by a Securityholder’s appointed proxy will automatically default to the Chair, who is required to vote proxies as directed on a poll.

If you intend to appoint the Chair as your proxy (or if the Chair becomes your proxy by default), you can direct the Chair how to vote by marking one of the voting boxes for the relevant resolution on the Proxy Form (for example to vote ‘for’, ‘against’ or ‘abstain’ from voting). Alternatively, if the Chair is or becomes your proxy and you do not mark any of the boxes opposite a resolution, the Chair may vote as he/she sees fit. Please note that by submitting the Proxy Form without voting instructions, you will be giving the Chair your express authority to vote your proxy as he/she decides on remuneration related resolutions, even though the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the KMP of Abacus Storage King.

The Chair of the Meetings intends to vote all undirected proxies held by the Chair in favour of each Resolution.

Completion of a Proxy Form will not prevent individual Securityholders from attending the Meetings in person if they wish. Where a Securityholder completes and lodges a valid Proxy Form and then the Securityholder attends the Meetings in person, if the member votes on a resolution, their proxy is not entitled to vote, and must not vote, on that resolution.

If a Securityholder appoints a body corporate as a proxy, that body corporate will need to ensure that it:

  • appoints an individual as its corporate representative to exercise its powers at the meetings, in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act; or

  • provides satisfactory evidence of the appointment of its corporate representative prior to commencement of the Meetings, unless this has previously been provided to the Share Registry.

Corporate Securityholders should comply with the execution requirements set out on the Proxy Form or otherwise comply with the provisions of section 127 of the Corporations Act.

Your Proxy instruction must be received not later than 48 hours before the commencement of the Meetings (that is, before 11:30am AEDT on 15 November 2023):

Proxy Forms received later than this time will be invalid.

Power of Attorney

If the Proxy Form is signed under a power of attorney on behalf of a Securityholder, then the attorney must make sure that either the original power of attorney or a certified copy is sent with the Proxy Form, unless the power of attorney has already provided it to the Share Registry.

Notice is hereby given that an Annual General Meetings of Securityholders of Abacus Storage King will be held at 11:30am AEDT on 17 November 2023 at Level 13, 77 Castlereagh Street, Sydney, NSW 2000 ( Meetings ).

4

Resolutions

Remuneration Report

  1. Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

To consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following resolution as an Ordinary Resolution of each Company:

“That, for the purpose of Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act and for all other purposes, approval is given for the adoption of the Remuneration Report as contained in the Abacus Group’s Annual Financial Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2023.”

Note : The vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company.

Voting Prohibition Statement: In accordance with the Corporations Act, a vote must not be cast (in any capacity) on Resolution 1 by or on behalf of a member of the Group’s key management personnel (including the Directors) ( KMP ), whose remuneration details are included in the Remuneration Report, or any of that person’s Closely Related Parties (such as close family members and any controlled companies of those persons) (collectively referred to as Restricted Voter ). However, such a person described above may cast a vote on Resolution 1 if:

  • (a) it is cast by a person as a proxy appointed in writing that specifies how the proxy is to vote on Resolution 1; and

  • (b) it is not cast on behalf of a Restricted Voter.

If you appoint the person chairing the Meetings ( Chair ) as a proxy and the Proxy Form does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution and you are not a Restricted Voter, by submitting the Proxy Form you authorise the Chair to exercise the proxy even though Resolution 1 is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a KMP, and you will be taken to have directed the Chair to vote in accordance with his or her stated intention to vote in favour of Resolution 1. If you do not want your vote exercised in favour of Resolution 1, you should direct the person chairing the Meetings to vote “against”, or to abstain from voting on, this Resolution.

In addition, under the Corporations Act, a vote must not be cast on Resolution 1 by a member of the Group’s KMP, or a Closely Related Party of a KMP, acting as proxy, if their appointment does not specify the way the proxy is to vote on the resolution. However, this voting exclusion does not apply if the KMP is the Chair of the Meetings acting as proxy and their appointment expressly authorises the Chair of the Meetings to exercise the proxy even though the resolution is connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of a member of the KMP.

5

Re-election of Director

  1. Resolution 2 – Re-election of Mark Bloom as Director

To consider and, if thought fit, to pass the following resolution as an Ordinary Resolution of the Company:

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD

Lucy Spenceley Company Secretary

Resolution 1 – Adoption of Remuneration Report

In accordance with section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act, the Group is required to present to its Securityholders the Remuneration Report as disclosed in the 2023 Annual Financial Report.

The vote on the Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. The

7

Remuneration Report is set out in the Annual Financial Report and is also available on the Company’s website at https://abacusgroup.com.au/.

However, if at least 25% of the votes cast are against the adoption of the Remuneration Report at the Meetings (subject of this Notice of Meetings), and then again at the 2024 Annual General Meetings ( 2024 AGM ), Abacus Storage King will be required to put to the vote a resolution ( Spill Resolution ) at the 2024 AGM to approve the calling of further meetings ( Spill Meeting ). If more than 50% of Securityholders vote in favour of the Spill Resolution, the Group must convene the Spill Meeting within 90 days of the 2024 AGM.

The Remuneration Report explains the Board’s policies in relation to the nature and level of remuneration paid to KMPs (including Directors) and sets out remuneration details, service agreements and the details of any security-based compensation.

Voting

Note that a voting exclusion applies to Resolution 1 in the terms set out in the Notice of Meetings.

The Constitution of the Company requires the rotational retirement and re-election of Directors. In accordance with these requirements, Mark Bloom is retiring at the end of the AGM and will be offering himself for re-election.
