Dear CDP Account Holder, ## **AIMS Property Securities Fund (APW or AIMS Property) General Meeting of Unitholders** We refer to the Notice of General Meeting of Unitholders of APW recently announced to the ASX and SGX ( **Notice** ). Capitalised terms not defined in this letter have the meaning given to them in the Notice. ## **The Directors of AIMS Fund Management Limited as responsible entity of APW recommend that Unitholders vote AGAINST the resolution to wind up AIMS Property Securities Fund.** The General Meeting is scheduled to take place on **Tuesday, 3 January 2017** at the offices of K&L Gates, Level 31, 1 O'Connell Street, Sydney NSW, Australia. The Central Depository (Pte) Limited (CDP) Account Holders should be aware that CDP is the registered holder of all Units traded on the SGX. Legal title to the Units held in the Securities Account is held by CDP and CDP holds the Units (as bare trustee) for and on behalf of CDP Account Holders who maintain, either directly or through Depository Agents, Securities Accounts with CDP. CDP is therefore the Unitholder entitled to vote on the Resolution. CDP Account Holders are not considered Unitholders for the purposes of voting on the Resolution. In order to vote, CDP Account Holders must provide their voting instructions to CDP by no later than **5:00 pm (Singapore time) on Friday 30 December 2016** . Instructions on how to lodge your voting instructions with CDP are included in the CDP Voting Instruction Form accompanying the Notice which has been sent to each CDP Account Holder. In order to attend the General Meeting in person, each CDP Account Holder must ensure that by no later than **9:00 am (Sydney time) (being 6:00 am (Singapore time)) on 1 January 2017** they have: - (a) notified the Responsible Entity (AIMS Fund Management Limited) of their attendance; and - (b) provided to the Responsible Entity evidence, which is, in the reasonable opinion of the Responsible Entity, satisfactory to show that the person is in fact a CDP Account Holder at that time. **AIMS Funds Management AIMS Fund Management Limited** ABN 79 004 956 558 AFS Licence No: 258052 **AIMS Investment Managers Limited** ABN 45 099 054 074 Licence No: 225357 SEC No: 801-66388 **AIMS Real Estate Funds Limited** ABN 32 126 766 167 AFSL No: 318261 **Head Office Sydney:** Level 41, Suncorp Place 259 George Street, Sydney NSW 2000 Australia GPO Box 208 Sydney NSW 2001 Australia **Client Services: 1300 655 197, 1300 362 117 Fax: +612 9226 0088 Email:** [email protected] **Website:** www.aimsfunds.com.au **Sydney Melbourne Beijing Shanghai Tianjin Guangzhou Hong Kong Singapore** The information required under (a) and (b) above may be delivered to the Responsible Entity: **-in person** AIMS Property Securities Fund C/- Boardroom Limited 50 Raffles Place #32-01 Singapore Land Tower Singapore 048623 Attention: Peter Gan **- by mail:** AIMS Property Securities Fund GPO Box 208 Sydney NSW 2001 Australia Attention: Peter Gan **- by facsimile:** + 61 2 9226 0088 (marked to the attention of Peter Gan) **- by e-mail:** [email protected] A CDP Account Holder attending the General Meeting has the same right to speak at the meeting as a Unitholder.

You may attend (in person) the General Meeting on **3 January 2017** , provided that you have notified AIMS Property Securities Fund in writing of your proposed attendance by no later than **9:00AM (Sydney time) on 1 January 2017** and provided AIMS Property Securities Fund with your name, address and details of your Unit holding as evidence that your Units are deposited with CDP at that time. Such written notification should be addressed to Peter Gan, AIMS Fund Management Ltd, GPO Box 208 Sydney NSW 2001 Australia or by facsimile to +61-2-9226 0088 or by e-mail to [email protected]. Any CDP Account Holder attending the General Meeting has the same right to speak at the meeting as a Unitholder. However a CDP Account Holder does not have any right to vote (either on a show of hands or on a poll), demand a poll, be counted in a quorum, or enjoy any other rights of the kind typically enjoyed by Unitholders. 2. Your Units are registered with CDP. As CDP is not allowed under the constitution of AIMS Property Securities Fund to appoint more than 2 proxies, you are not able to attend and vote or appoint your own proxies to attend the General Meeting, and can only request CDP to appoint the Chairperson of the Meeting as your proxy to attend and vote on your behalf in accordance with the voting instructions herein. CDP will not appoint a proxy other than the Chairperson of the General Meeting to attend and vote in accordance with the voting instructions herein. 3. You must return this Voting Instruction Form for CDP’s Depositors, duly completed, to AIMS Property Securities Fund, c/o The Central Depository (Pte) Limited, 4 Shenton Way #02-01, SGX Centre 2, Singapore 068807 by **5:00 pm (Singapore time) on Friday, 30 December 2016** (the “Receipt Date”). 4. You should complete each box for the Resolution set out in the “Business” section of this form, including the number of Units to be voted “for” or “against” or “abstain”. The total number of Units represented should not exceed your total Unit holdings. 5. If CDP, on behalf of AIMS Property Securities Fund, does not receive your specific instructions by the Receipt Date, it will not vote or take any action with respect to your Units at the General Meeting. 6. You should indicate your Securities Account Number to which the number of Units to which this instruction relates, in the box provided. If the Securities Account Number is not provided, this form will be deemed to be incomplete and AIMS Property Securities Fund and CDP are entitled (but not obliged) to disregard your voting instruction. 7. If you wish to give voting instructions on your Units, this form must be signed by you or your attorney duly authorised in writing or, if you are a corporation, executed under your common seal or under the hand of your attorney duly authorised in writing. In the case of joint holders, all joint holders must sign this form. The Power of Attorney or other authority appointing the attorney or a notarially/duly certified copy of that Power of Attorney or other authority must be attached to this form if it is signed by an attorney. 8. If, as at the Receipt Date, your total Unit holding exceeds the total number of Units to which any voting instruction relates, CDP will forward your voting instructions only in respect of the Units in respect of which any voting instruction relates. If, as at the Receipt Date, your total Unit holding is less than the total number of Units to which any voting instruction relates, CDP will forward your voting instructions only in respect of your total Unit holding as at the Receipt Date, provided that any instruction which requires CDP to split the Units between votes “for” or “against” or “abstain” in respect of any resolution set out in the “Business” section of this form shall be invalid. For example, if on the Receipt Date, your total Units holding is 10 Units but your voting instruction relates to 20 Units, CDP will forward the voting instructions in respect of 10 Units if the votes are either wholly for or wholly against or wholly abstaining in respect of a resolution set out in the “Business” section of this form. If you have split your Units into votes for and against the resolution, CDP will not be able to allocate the Units amongst the split votes and will accordingly treat the voting instruction as invalid. _**Turn over to complete the form**_ Depositor’s name ## **Please mark to indicate your directions X** **_______________________________________________________________________________________________** ## **STEP 1.
