Arena REIT Limited ACN 602 365 186, Arena REIT Management Limited ACN 600 069 761 AFSL 465754 as Responsible Entity for: Arena REIT No. 1 (ARSN 106 891 641) Arena REIT No. 2 (ARSN 101 067 878)

Arena REIT / Security Purchase Plan

Letter from the Chair

7 August 2017

Dear Securityholder

On behalf of the Boards of Arena REIT Limited and Arena REIT Management Limited, the responsible entity for the trusts that comprise Arena REIT (“Arena REIT”), I am pleased to offer you the opportunity to participate in the Security Purchase Plan (“SPP”).

Arena REIT recently conducted an institutional placement of approximately 27 million Securities at $2.03 per Security, raising $55 million (“Institutional Placement”).

It is intended that the proceeds from the Institutional Placement and the SPP fund the acquisition of nine early learning centre development properties and provide capacity to fund future investment opportunities.

For further information on the acquisitions please refer to the ASX Announcements released on Friday 28 July 2017 or visit our website at www.arena.com.au.

The offer

The SPP is offered exclusively to all Eligible Securityholders, being registered holders as at 7pm (Sydney time) on Thursday 27 July 2017 (“Record Date”) with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand. For New Zealand Securityholders, you must still be a Securityholder on the date of this letter. Certain Eligible Securityholders who are custodians holding Securities on behalf of certain beneficiaries are also offered the opportunity to participate in the SPP in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. Excluded Securityholders (as defined in the Terms and Conditions) will not be invited to participate in the SPP.

The SPP provides Eligible Securityholders with an opportunity to contribute $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000 in applying for new Securities.

The Issue Price of Securities under the SPP will be $2.03 per Security (“Issue Price”). The Issue Price is the same as the price paid by institutional investors under the Institutional Placement.

The SPP is not underwritten and the total amount to be raised under the SPP will be $5 million subject to Arena REIT having the discretion to accept oversubscriptions to $10 million.

If demand exceeds $5 million:

  • Arena REIT may scale back Applications. If this happens, you may be allocated fewer Securities than the parcel of Securities for which you applied, and you will be refunded the difference in the Application amount (without interest payable on funds prior to your refund); or

  • Arena REIT may choose to accept oversubscriptions to $10 million (subject to scale back if required).

Participation in the SPP is entirely voluntary. All Securities issued under the SPP will rank equally with existing fully paid Securities and will carry the same voting rights and entitlement to receive distributions.

No brokerage, commissions or other transaction costs apply to purchases under the SPP.

How to accept this offer

To apply for Securities under the SPP, please follow the instructions on the enclosed personalised Application Form.

This letter and its attachments set out the details and Terms and Conditions of the SPP. I encourage you to read the enclosed material and seek your own financial and tax advice in relation to the offer, before you decide whether to participate.

The SPP opens at 9am (Sydney time) Monday 7 August 2017 and will close at 5pm (Sydney time) on Monday 28 August 2017.

On behalf of the Board of Arena REIT, I invite you to consider participation in the SPP.

Yours sincerely

The Securities to be offered and sold under the SPP offer have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States, and therefore will only be offered and sold to Eligible Securityholders in Australia and New Zealand in “offshore transactions” (as defined in Rule 902(h) under the U.S. Securities Act) in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.

Arena REIT / Security Purchase Plan

Questions and answers

Defined words and expressions used in this booklet and the letter from the Chair are capitalised. See the Definitions section at the end of this booklet for their definition.

1. What is the Security Purchase Plan?

The Security Purchase Plan (“SPP”) is an opportunity for Eligible Securityholders to purchase additional Securities without brokerage, commissions or other transaction costs. All Securities issued to you under the SPP will rank equally with your existing fully paid Securities and will carry the same voting rights and entitlements to receive distributions.

2. Who may participate in the SPP?

You may participate in the SPP if you are an Eligible Securityholder. You are an Eligible Securityholder if you are a registered holder of Securities on the Record Date with a registered address in:

  • Australia; or

  • New Zealand and you remain a Securityholder on the date of the offer, that is Monday 7 August 2017, unless you are an Excluded Securityholder.

Certain Eligible Securityholders who are custodians holding Securities on behalf of certain beneficiaries are also able to participate in the SPP in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.

An Excluded Securityholder is any:

  • person who holds Securities (either for their own account or the account of another person) who resides outside Australia and New Zealand; or

  • holder of Securities who is, or is acting for the account or benefit of, a person in the United States.

Each custodian, trustee or nominee must not distribute any documents relating to the SPP to any person in the United States and must not submit an Application or make payment by BPAY®[1] or otherwise for Securities for any person for whose account or benefit it acts that is an Excluded Securityholder.

3. Do I have to participate in the SPP?

No. Participation in the SPP is entirely voluntary.

If you do not wish to participate in the SPP, no action is required on your part.

Before you apply for Securities, Arena REIT recommends you seek independent financial and tax advice from your stockbroker, accountant or other professional advisor, and you monitor the price of Securities (which is quoted in the financial pages of the major metropolitan newspapers and on the ASX website). This booklet does not purport to contain all of the information that you need to make an investment decision.

4. Can my offer under the SPP be transferred to a third party?

No. Your rights under this offer are personal to you and non-renounceable, so you may not transfer them.

5. What is the Issue Price of the Securities under the SPP?

The Issue Price of Securities under the SPP will be $2.03 per Security. The Issue Price is the same as the price paid by institutional investors under the Institutional Placement.

The Issue Price may differ from the market price of Securities on the day Securities are issued or allotted to you.

The market price or value of Securities is subject to market volatility. It may be higher or lower, at any time, than the Issue Price of the Securities you receive. The market price may change between the date of this offer and the date when Securities are issued or allotted to you under the SPP.

6. How many Securities can I apply for under

the SPP?

If you are an Eligible Securityholder, you are entitled to contribute $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000 in applying for new Securities, regardless of the number of Securities you currently hold. These amounts may be subject to any scale back and rounding.

If you receive more than one copy of this booklet, or if you hold Securities in more than one capacity (e.g. because you are both a sole and joint holder of Securities), the maximum amount you may apply to invest under the SPP in all capacities, and in aggregate, is $15,000. By applying to purchase Securities under the SPP, you certify you have not exceeded this $15,000 limit.

If the Issue Price cannot be divided into $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000, to give a whole number of Securities, there will be a rounding down of the number of Securities. By applying to purchase Securities under the SPP, you acknowledge that any remaining balance of your payment will form part of the assets of Arena REIT. You will not receive a refund for this amount, which will always be less than the Issue Price of one Security.

7. How do I apply for Securities under the SPP?

If you wish to participate in the SPP, you can apply for Securities by either:

  • Making a payment of $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000 using the BPAY facility provided by your bank as per the instructions in the Application Form. If you make a payment by BPAY, you will be deemed to have completed an Application Form accepting Securities to the value of $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000. You do not need to return the Application Form if paying by BPAY; or

  • Following the instructions set out in the enclosed Application Form. Send your completed Application Form with your cheque or money order drawn on an Australian branch of a financial institution in Australian currency, made payable to “Arena REIT SPP Offer” and crossed “Not Negotiable” to Boardroom Pty Limited in the enclosed reply paid envelope.

You will not be able to withdraw or revoke your Application once you have sent us the completed Application Form, applied online or made a payment by BPAY.

8. Can I apply for Securities under the SPP if my Securities are held by a custodian, trustee or nominee?

If you are expressly noted on Arena REIT’s security register as the named beneficiary of Securities held by a custodian, trustee or nominee you will be eligible to participate in the SPP. Please contact the Arena REIT Information Line on 1800 008 094 (if calling within Australia) or +61 2 9290 9600 (if calling from outside Australia) between 8.30am and 5.30pm (Sydney time), Monday to Friday while the offer remains open for further information on how to participate in the SPP.

10. Do I have a guaranteed allocation of Securities under the SPP?

No. Provided demand does not exceed $5 million, and you are an Eligible Securityholder and make a valid application in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, then you will receive a parcel of Securities valued at $2,500, $5,000, $7,500, $10,000 or $15,000 (as specified in your Application Form) at the Issue Price, rounded down to the nearest whole number of Securities.

If demand exceeds $5 million:

  • Arena REIT may scale back applications. If this happens, you may be allocated fewer Securities than the parcel of Securities for which you applied, and you will be refunded the difference in the application amount (without interest payable on funds prior to your refund); or

  • Arena REIT may (in its absolute discretion) accept oversubscriptions to $10 million (subject to scale back if required).

11. What is the market price of Securities?

The market price of Securities can be obtained from the ASX website by searching for “Arena REIT” or “ARF” in the prices search screen.

12. Taxation

You should consult your own taxation advisor about the tax status of your investment in Securities.

In accordance with the provisions of the OECD Common Reporting Standard for Automatic Exchange of Financial Account Information (CRS), Arena REIT may collect and report account information in respect of non-residents and their Securities. Investors should consult with their tax advisors for further information on how the CRS and Australian implementing legislation may affect them.

6. Waiver

Arena REIT reserves the right at any time to waive compliance with any provision of these Terms and Conditions.

7. Underwriting

The SPP is not underwritten.

8. Settling disputes

Arena REIT may settle in any manner it sees fit, any difficulties, anomalies or disputes which may arise in connection with the operation of the SPP whether generally or in relation to any participant or any Application of Securities. The decision of Arena REIT is conclusive and binding on all participants and other persons to whom the determination relates. These rights may be exercised by Arena REIT, its Board of Directors or any of their delegates.

9. Privacy

9.1 Chapter 2C of the Corporations Act requires information about Securityholders (including their name, address and details of the securities they hold) to be included in the public register of the entity in which they hold securities. This information must continue to be included in the public register even if they cease to be a Securityholder.

9.2 Arena REIT and the Registry may collect personal information to process the application and implement the SPP, and to administer holdings of Securities.

9.3 The personal information contained in Arena REIT’s security register is also used to facilitate payments and corporate communications (including financial results, annual reports and other information to be communicated to Securityholders) and to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, including taxation laws and the Corporations Act.

9.4 The personal information Arena REIT collects in relation to Securityholders may include the name, address, other contact details, bank account details and details of their holdings of Securities.

9.5 Securityholders who are individuals and the other individuals in respect of whom personal information is collected, as outlined above, have certain rights to access, correct or update the personal information held about them, subject to some exceptions allowed by law. Such individuals should contact Arena REIT’s Information Line on 1800 008 494 (if calling within Australia) or +61 2 9290 9600 (if calling from outside Australia) between 8.30am and 5.30pm (Sydney time), Monday to Friday.

Arena REIT / Security Purchase Plan

Terms and Conditions (continued)

9.6 Personal information regarding Securityholders may be disclosed to joint investors, the Registry, securities brokers, third party service providers (including print and mail service providers, technology providers, and professional advisors), related entities of Arena REIT and each of their agents and contractors, and ASX and other regulatory authorities, and in any case, where disclosure is required or allowed by law (which may include disclosures to the Australian Taxation Office and other government or regulatory bodies or where you have consented to the disclosure). In some cases, the types of organisations referred to above to whom Arena REIT will disclose personal information may be located overseas.

9.7 The main consequence of not providing the personal information outlined in clauses 9.1 to 9.4 above would be that Arena REIT may be hindered in, or prevented from, processing applications, and from conducting and implementing the SPP.

9.8 The Registry’s privacy policy is available on their website: https://boardroomlimited.com.au
