Chairman’s letter

Centuria Metropolitan REIT – Retail Entitlement Offer

Dear Unitholder,

On behalf of the directors of Centuria Property Funds Limited (CPFL), as the responsible entity of Centuria Metropolitan REIT (ASX: CMA) (CMA or the REIT ), I am pleased to invite you to participate in CMA’s recently announced underwritten 1 for 10 accelerated non-renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer ( Entitlement Offer ) of new units in CMA ( New Units ) at an issue price of $2.86 per New Unit ( Issue Price ).

Equity Raising

On 18 September 2019, CMA announced its intention to raise approximately $273 million by way of:

a) an institutional placement ( Institutional Placement ) to Eligible Institutional Unitholders and Institutional Investors invited to participate in the Institutional Placement to raise approximately $141 million;

b) the Entitlement Offer, being an accelerated non-renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer to Eligible Institutional Unitholders ( Institutional Entitlement Offer ) and Eligible Retail Unitholders ( Retail Entitlement Offer ) to raise approximately $102 million; and

c) a placement to Centuria Capital Limited (ABN 22 095 434 336) or to its subsidiaries (CNI) to raise approximately $30 million ( Conditional Placement ).

Together the Institutional Placement, Conditional Placement, Institutional Entitlement Offer and Retail Entitlement Offer are referred to as the Equity Raising .

The Institutional Entitlement Offer received strong support with commitments of approximately $65 million, and together with the Institutional Placement has raised approximately $206 million. The Conditional Placement will raise a further $30 million.

The Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer are underwritten by Moelis Australia Advisory Pty Ltd and UBS AG, Australia Branch ( Underwriters ), subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement (see section 5.6 for more details).

Use of proceeds

The proceeds of the Equity Raising will be used to:

a) partially fund the acquisition of a 100% freehold interest in William Square, the building at 235 William Street, Northbridge WA ( William Square ) - an office building with approximately 21,765 square metres of office space and 128 car spaces for $189.5 million; and

b) provide CMA with sufficient headroom to debt fund the majority of the acquisition of a 50% freehold interest in the building at 8 Central Avenue, Eveleigh NSW (8 Central Avenue) - an office building with approximately 36,570 square metres of office space and 700 car spaces for $191 million, (together the Acquisitions ).

The balance of funds required for the proposed Acquisitions will be debt funded.

The Acquisitions are independently valued at $380.5 million and reflect a weighted average capitalisation rate of 5.9%.

As it is proposed that 8 Central Avenue will be acquired from a related entity of CMA, Unitholder approval for the acquisition will be required to satisfy the requirements of ASX Listing Rule 10.1 and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act (as modified by Part 5C.7 of the Corporations Act).

Retail Entitlement Offer

The Board is pleased to provide Eligible Retail Unitholders with an opportunity to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer and to support the ongoing execution of CMA’s growth strategy.

The Retail Entitlement Offer will raise approximately $37 million. Eligible Retail Unitholders can subscribe for 1 New Unit for every 10 Units held as at the Record Date at an Issue Price of $2.86 per New Unit. The Issue Price represents a discount of 3.2% to the last closing price of Units of $3.00 on 17 September 2019 adjusted for the distribution for the quarter ending 30 September 2019 of 4.45 cps.

The New Units issued under the Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing Units on issue and will be entitled to participate in all future distributions of CMA.

The number of New Units for which you are entitled to subscribe under the Retail Entitlement Offer ( Entitlement ) is set out in your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany this Retail Offer Booklet when it is despatched to Eligible Retail Unit holders on 24 September 2019. Eligible Retail Unitholders who take up their full Entitlement may also apply for Additional New Units in excess of their Entitlement up to 50% of their full Entitlement (to the extent available), at the Issue Price. In the event of oversubscriptions, the allocation of Additional New Units will be subject to scale back on a pro-rata basis. There is no guarantee that you will be allocated any Additional New Units.

The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable and therefore your Entitlements will not be tradeable on the ASX or otherwise

transferrable. If you do not participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer, your Entitlement will lapse and you will receive no value for those lapsed Entitlements.

If you decide to take this opportunity to increase your investment in CMA please ensure that, before 5.00 pm (Sydney Time) on Tuesday, 8 October 2019, you have paid your Application Monies (preferably via BPAY®) pursuant to the instructions that are set out in the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form that will accompany this Retail Offer Booklet when it is despatched to you, or otherwise that your completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form and your Application Monies are received in cleared funds by the Registry. If you apply and pay your Application Monies before 5.00 pm (Sydney Time) on Monday, 30 September 2019 ( Early Retail Acceptance Due Date ) via BPAY®, your New Units will be allotted to you on Wednesday, 2 October 2019, which is the same date that New Units will be issued under the Institutional Placement and the Institutional Entitlement Offer.

The Retail Entitlement Offer closes at 5.00 pm (Sydney time) on Tuesday, 8 October 2019.

The Board advises you to carefully read this Retail Offer Booklet in its entirety and to seek appropriate professional advice before making any investment decision. In particular, you should refer to the “Key Risks” section of the Investor Presentation included as Annexure B of this Retail Offer Booklet for a summary of general and specific risk factors that may affect CMA and the Entitlement Offer.

If you have any questions about the Entitlement Offer, please do not hesitate to contact the Centuria Metropolitan REIT Investor Relations Line on 1800 182 257 (from within Australia) or +61 2 9290 9689 (from outside Australia) between 9.00am and 5.00 pm (Sydney Time), Monday to Friday during the Retail Offer Period.

If you do not wish to take up any of your Entitlement, you do not have to take any action.

On behalf of the Directors of CMA, we invite you to consider this investment and participate in the exciting next stage of CMA’s growth.

Yours faithfully,

On 18 September 2019, the Institutional Placement was conducted with eligible Institutional Investors being offered New Units at an Issue Price of $2.86 per New Unit. In addition, Eligible Institutional Unitholders were given the opportunity to take up all or part of their Entitlement under the Institutional Entitlement Offer at an Issue Price of $2.86 per New Unit.

New Units equivalent to the number not taken up by Eligible Institutional Unitholders under the Institutional Entitlement Offer were offered to Eligible Institutional Unitholders who applied for New Units in excess of their Entitlement, as well as to certain other eligible Institutional Investors.

CPFL has successfully conducted the Institutional Placement to raise $141 million and also successfully conducted the Institutional Entitlement Offer to raise approximately $65 million.

The New Units are expected to be allotted under the Institutional Placement and Institutional Entitlement Offer on Wednesday, 2 October 2019.

Subject to receipt of Unitholder approval at the General Meeting to be held 29 October 2019, the Conditional Placement is proposed to be conducted on 30 October 2019, with CNI being offered New Units at an Issue Price of $2.86 per New Unit to raise $30 million.

1.3 Retail Entitlement Offer

Under the Retail Entitlement Offer, Eligible Retail Unitholders are being invited to subscribe for all or part of their Entitlement and are being sent this Retail Offer Booklet with a personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Eligible Retail Unitholders who have requested to receive their communications via email will be sent a personal link to their Entitlement Form and the Retail Offer Booklet by email.

CMA is also offering Eligible Retail Unitholders the opportunity to apply for Additional New Units in excess of their Entitlement up to 50% of their full Entitlement. If the Retail Entitlement Offer is oversubscribed, the allocation of Additional New Units will be subject to scale back on a pro-rata basis. The issue of Additional New Units (if any) will take place along with allotment of New Units offered under

the Retail Entitlement Offer on 15 October 2019.

The Retail Entitlement Offer constitutes an offer only to Eligible Retail Unitholders, being Unitholders on the Record Date who have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand and are eligible under all applicable laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer. A person in the United States or acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States (to the extent such person holds Units for the account or benefit of such person in the United States) or an Institutional Unitholder (other than a nominee to the extent that the nominee holds Units on behalf of an Eligible Retail Unitholders) is not entitled to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Determination of eligibility of investors for the purposes of the Entitlement Offer is by reference to a number of matters, including legal requirements and the discretion of CMA and the Underwriters. CMA, the Underwriters and their respective affiliates and related bodies corporate disclaim any liability in respect of the exercise or otherwise of that discretion, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The Retail Entitlement Offer closes at 5.00 pm (Sydney Time) on 8 October 2019, with New Units to be allotted on 15 October 2019.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is underwritten by the Underwriters and seeks to raise approximately $37 million. The Issue Price under the Retail Entitlement Offer is the same as the Issue Price under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and the Placements.

1.4 Use of Proceeds

The proceeds of the Equity Raising will be used to:

a) partially fund the acquisition of William Square - an office building with approximately 21,765 square metres of office space and 128 car spaces for $189.5 million; and

b) provide CMA with sufficient headroom to debt fund the majority of the acquisition of 8 Central Avenue - an office building with approximately 36,570 square metres of office space and 700 car spaces for $191 million.

Section 1 - Overview of the Offer

1.5 Ranking of New Units

New Units will rank equally with existing Units on issue.

1.6 Reconciliation and fractional entitlements

In any entitlement offer, investors may believe that they own more or fewer existing Units on the Record Date than they ultimately do. This could potentially result in the requirement for reconciliation to ensure all Eligible Retail Unitholder have the opportunity to receive their full Entitlement. If this is required, it is possible that CPFL may need to issue a small quantity of additional New Units to ensure all Eligible Institutional Unitholders and Eligible Retail Unitholders have the opportunity to receive their full Entitlement. The price at which these Units will be issued will be the same as the Issue Price. CPFL also reserves the right to reduce the number of New Units allocated to Eligible Unitholders or persons claiming to be Eligible Unitholders, if their Entitlement claims prove to be overstated, or if they or their nominees fail to provide information requested to substantiate their Entitlement claims, or if they are indeed not Eligible Unitholders.

It is the responsibility of each applicant to confirm their holding before trading in New Units. Any applicant who sells New Units before receiving confirmation of their holding in the form of their holding statement will do so at their own risk. CPFL, the Underwriters and their respective affiliates and related bodies corporate, disclaim all liability whether in negligence or otherwise (and to the maximum extent permitted by law) to persons who trade New Units before receiving their holding statements, whether on the basis of confirmation of the issue provided by CPFL, the Registry or the Underwriters.

1.9 Withdrawal of the Entitlement Offer

Subject to the consent of the Underwriters, CPFL reserves the right to withdraw the Entitlement Offer at any time, in which case CPFL will refund any Application Monies already received in accordance with the Corporations Act and will do so without interest.

To the extent that the application of the offer ratio of 1 New Unit for every 10 existing Units held on the Record Date results in a fractional entitlement to New Units for a Unitholder, that Unitholder’s Entitlement shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number of New Units.

1.7 Quotation and trading

CPFL will apply to ASX for the official quotation of the New Units in accordance with ASX Listing Rule requirements. Subject to approval being granted, it is expected that normal trading of New Units:

• allotted under the Institutional Placement, Institutional Entitlement Offer and Retail Entitlement Offer for applications received by the Early Retail Acceptance Due Date will commence on 2 October 2019; and

• allotted under the Retail Entitlement Offer (including any Additional New Units) will commence on 15 October 2019.

1.8 Holding statements

Holding statements are expected to be despatched to Eligible Unitholders:

• on 3 October 2019 in respect of New Units allotted under the Institutional Placement, Institutional Entitlement Offer and Retail Entitlement Offer for applications received by the Early Retail Acceptance Due Date; and

• on 17 October 2019 in respect of New Units allotted under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is a pro rata offer to Eligible Retail Unitholders only.

2.2 Take up all or part of your Entitlement, or take up all of your

Entitlement and apply for Additional New Units in excess of your Entitlement

If you wish to take up your Entitlement in full or in part, or in full and apply for Additional New Units in excess of your Entitlement, there are two different ways you can submit your Application and Application Monies.

2.2.1 Payment via BPAY®

For payment by BPAY®, please follow the instructions set out on the personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Eligible Retail Unitholders who have requested to receive their communications via email will be sent a personal link to their Entitlement Form and the Retail Offer Booklet by email. You can only make payment by BPAY® if you are the holder of an account with an Australian financial institution that supports BPAY® transactions.

If you are paying by BPAY®, please ensure you use the specific Biller Code and your unique Customer Reference Number (CRN) found on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Eligible Retail Unitholders who have requested to receive their communications via email will be sent a personal link to their Entitlement Form and the Retail Offer Booklet by email. If you have multiple holdings and receive more than one personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your Entitlement in respect of one of those holdings, only use the CRN specific to that holding. If you do not use the correct CRN specific to that holding, your Application will not be recognised as valid and may be rejected.

You can be allotted New Units the subject of your Entitlement at the same time as Eligible Institutional Unitholders under the Institutional Entitlement Offer being, Wednesday, 2 October 2019. To do this you must make payment of the Application Monies via BPAY® in time to ensure that cleared funds are received no later than 5.00 pm (Sydney Time) on Monday, 30 September 2019. If your payment of the Application Monies is received in cleared funds after this time, but before the Retail Closing Date, New Units will be allotted to you on Wednesday, 2 October 2019.

Applicants should be aware that their own financial institution may implement earlier cut off times with regards to electronic payment, and should therefore take this into consideration when making payment of Application Monies.

To apply and pay via BPAY®, you should:

• read this Retail Offer Booklet and the Entitlement and Acceptance Form in their entirety (also available online at www.centuria.com.au) and seek appropriate professional advice if necessary;

• make your payment in respect of the full Application Monies via BPAY® for the number of New Units you wish to subscribe for (being the Issue Price of $2.86 per New Unit multiplied by the number of New Units (including your Entitlement and any Additional New Units) you are applying for) so that it is received by no later than the Retail Closing Date, being 5.00 pm (Sydney Time) on 8 October 2019.

If you choose to pay via BPAY® you are not required to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to make the statements on that form and representations outlined below in Section 2.4 (Implications of making an Application), including the Eligible Retail Unitholder declarations referred to in the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

If you take up all or part of your Entitlement (or all of your Entitlement and apply for Additional New Units) and your payment of the Application Monies is received in cleared funds by the Retail Closing Date, being 5.00 pm (Sydney Time) on 8 October 2019, New Units (and Additional New Units) are expected to be allotted to you on the Allotment Date being 15 October 2019.

If the amount of Application Monies is insufficient to pay in full for the number of New Units you applied for, you will be taken to have applied for such whole number of New Units which is covered in full by your Application Monies. Alternatively, your application will be rejected.

If you apply for Additional New Units in excess of your Entitlement and you are not allocated all or some of the Additional New Units applied for, the relevant Application Monies will be refunded to you after the Allotment Date in accordance with the Corporations Act, without interest being payable. The allotment of Additional New Units will be subject to scale back on a pro-rata basis.

Section 3 - Australian Taxation

3.1 General

The section below provides a general summary of the Australian income tax, capital gains tax ( CGT ), goods and services tax ( GST ) and stamp duty implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer for certain Eligible Retail Unitholders.

The comments in this section deal only with the Australian taxation implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer if you:

  • are a resident for Australian income tax purposes; and

  • hold your Units on capital account.

The comments do not apply to you if you:

3.4 Acquiring Additional New Units

No assessable income or capital gain should arise for you from acquiring Additional New Units.

The cost base and reduced cost base for the Additional New Units acquired under the Retail Entitlement Offer should be determined in the same manner as for New Units acquired on exercise of your Entitlements.

The Additional New Units will be taken to have been acquired for CGT purposes on the day the Additional New Units are issued to you.

  • are not a resident for Australian income tax purposes;

• hold your Units as revenue assets or trading stock (which will generally be the case if you are a bank, insurance company or carry on a business of trading in securities);

• are subject to the ‘TOFA provisions’ in Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the Units; or

• acquired the Units in respect of which the Entitlement Offer is issued under any employee share scheme or where the New Units are acquired pursuant to any employee share scheme.

The taxation implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer will vary depending upon your particular circumstances. Accordingly, you should seek and rely upon your own professional advice before concluding on the particular taxation treatment that will apply to you.

CPFL and its officers, employees, taxation or other advisers do not accept any liability or responsibility in respect of any statement concerning taxation consequences, or in respect of the taxation consequences.

This taxation summary is necessarily general in nature. It is strongly recommended that each Eligible Retail Unitholder seeks their own independent professional tax advice applicable to their particular circumstances.

This taxation summary does not constitute financial product advice as defined in the Corporations Act 2001. This summary is confined to taxation issues and is only one of the matters you need to consider when making a decision about your investments. You should consider taking advice from a licensed adviser, before making a decision about your investments.

3.5 Distributions on New Units

Future distributions made in respect of New Units and Additional New Units will be subject to the same income taxation treatment as distributions made on existing Units held in the same circumstances.

3.6 Disposal of New Units and Additional New Units

On disposal of New Units or Additional New Units (referred to in this section as Units), you will make a capital gain if the capital proceeds on disposal exceed the total cost base of the Units. You will make a capital loss if the capital proceeds are less than the total reduced cost base of the Units. Individuals, complying superannuation entities or trustees that have held Units for at least 12 months (not including the dates of acquisition and disposal of the Units) should be entitled to discount the amount of any capital gain resulting from the disposal of the Units (after the application of any current year or carry forward capital losses).

The CGT discount applicable is currently one-half for individuals and trustees and one-third for complying superannuation entities. The CGT discount is not available for companies that are not acting as trustee of a trust. Trustees should seek specific tax advice regarding the tax consequences arising to beneficiaries because of the CGT discount.

If a capital loss arises on disposal of the Units, the capital loss can only be used to offset capital gains; the capital loss cannot be used to offset ordinary income. However, the capital loss can be carried forward to use in future income years if the loss cannot be used in a particular income year, provided (in the case of a corporate investor) certain tests are satisfied.

3.2 Issue of Entitlements

The issue of the Entitlements should not, of itself, result in any amount being included in your assessable income.

3.3 Exercise of Entitlements

Eligible Retail Unitholders who exercise their Entitlements will acquire New Units. No assessable income or capital gain should arise for you on the exercise (i.e. taking up) of your Entitlements.

3.7 Entitlements not taken up

As described in Section 2.3 above, any Entitlement not taken up under the Retail Entitlement Offer will lapse and the Eligible Retail Unitholder will not receive any consideration for those Entitlements. In these circumstances, there should not be any adverse income tax implications for the Eligible Retail Unitholder.

If you take up all or part of your Entitlements, you will acquire New Units.

The total cost base (and reduced cost base) of the New Units should equal the Issue Price for the New Units plus certain non-deductible incidental costs incurred in acquiring the New Units.

The New Units will be taken to be acquired on the day that the Entitlement in respect of the New Unit is exercised.

CENTURIA METROPOLITAN REIT I RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFER PAGE 13

3.8 Tax file number

If an Eligible Retail Unitholder has quoted their Australian business number ( ABN ), tax file number ( TFN ) or an exemption from quoting their tax file number in respect of an existing Unit, this quotation or exemption will also apply in respect of any New Units or Additional New Units acquired by that Eligible Retail Unitholder.

Tax may be required to be deducted by CPFL from any distributions at the highest marginal tax rate if an ABN or TFN has not been not quoted, or an appropriate TFN exemption has not been provided.

3.9 Other Australian taxes

No Australian GST or stamp duty will be payable by Eligible Retail Unitholders in respect of the issue or exercise of the Entitlements or the acquisition of New Units or Additional New Units pursuant to the Retail Entitlement Offer.

PAGE 14 CENTURIA METROPOLITAN REIT I RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFER

Section 4 - New Zealand Taxation

4.1 Introduction

This section provides a general summary of the New Zealand ( NZ ) income tax and goods and services tax ( GST ) implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer for Eligible Retail Unitholders.

The comments in this section deal with the NZ tax implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer if you are resident in NZ for income tax purposes.

The comments in this section are based on NZ tax legislation, together with administrative guidance and judicial interpretations of relevant legislation as at the date of this document.

The tax implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer will vary depending upon your circumstances. NZ tax implications arising from holding interests in non-NZ tax resident entities and deriving non-NZ sourced income can be complex and based on your individual facts and circumstances. It is strongly recommended that each Eligible Retail Unitholder seeks their own independent professional tax advice before concluding on the particular taxation treatment that will apply.

CPFL and its officers, employees, taxation or other advisers do not accept any liability or responsibility in respect of any statement concerning tax consequences, or in respect of the tax consequences.

The cost of the Additional New Units should equal the issue price for the Additional New Units.

The acquisition of Additional New Units may impact the specific rules or exemptions that apply to existing Units, such as the NZ$50,000 de minimis exemption under the FIF rules.

4.6 Distributions on New Units

Future distributions made in respect of New Units and Additional New Units should be subject to the same income tax treatment as distributions made on existing Units held in the same circumstances.

4.7 Disposal of New Units and Additional New Units

Based on current law, future disposals of New Units and Additional New Units should be subject to the same income tax treatment as disposals made on existing Units held in the same circumstances.

4.8 Disclosure to Commissioner of Inland Revenue

Disclosure to the Commissioner of Inland Revenue may be required under section 61 of the Tax Administration Act 1994 where the investment is subject to the NZ FIF rules.

4.2 General comments on taxation of non-NZ sourced income

There are a number of specific NZ tax rules that can apply to determine the timing, measurement and taxation of foreign sourced (non-NZ) income derived by NZ tax residents (including the application of the NZ foreign investment fund rules ( FIF rules )).

Application of these rules is facts and circumstances specific. Accordingly, the comments that follow describe the expected incremental NZ tax impact of the Retail Entitlement Offer.

4.3 Issue of Entitlements

4.9 Entitlements not taken up

As described in Section 2.3, any Entitlement not taken up under the Retail Entitlement Offer will lapse and the Eligible Retail Unitholder will not receive any consideration for those Entitlements. In these circumstances, there should not be any NZ tax implications for the Eligible Retail Unitholder.

4.10 Other NZ taxes

No NZ GST will be payable by Eligible Retail Unitholders in respect of the issue or exercise of the Entitlements or the acquisition of New Units pursuant to the Retail Entitlement Offer or Additional New Units.

The issue of the Entitlements should not, of itself, result in any amount being included in your taxable income.

4.4 Exercise of Entitlements

Eligible Retail Unitholders who exercise their Entitlements will acquire New Units. The New Units will be taken to be acquired on the day that the Entitlement in respect of the New Unit is exercised.

No taxable income should arise for you on the exercise (i.e. taking up) of your Entitlements.

The acquisition of New Units may impact the specific rules or exemptions that apply to existing Units, such as the NZ$50,000 de minimis exemption under the FIF rules.

4.5 Acquiring Additional New Units

The Additional New Units will be taken to have been acquired for NZ income tax purposes on the day the Additional New Units are issued to you.

No taxable income should arise for you from acquiring Additional New Units.

Section 5 - Important Information for Unitholders

5.1 Retail Offer Booklet availability

Those Eligible Retail Unitholders with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand will receive a copy of this Retail Offer Booklet and their personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form in the mail. Please read the Retail Offer Booklet and the Entitlement and Acceptance Form together in their entirety.

It is important to note that you will only be entitled to accept the Entitlement Offer by completing your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form which accompanies this Retail Offer Booklet, or by making a payment of Application Monies via BPAY® using the information contained on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form (see Section 2.2 for further information). Please carefully read the instructions on the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form.

5.2 Continuous disclosure requirements

Under the Corporations Act, the REIT is considered a disclosing entity and is subject to ongoing reporting and disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, including the preparation of annual reports and half yearly reports.

Under the ASX Listing Rules, CPFL has an obligation (subject to certain exceptions) to notify the ASX immediately of any information of which it is or becomes aware which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of its Units. Such information is available to the public from the ASX at www.asx. com.au.

CPFL is also required to lodge certain documents with ASIC. Such documents can be inspected and obtained from an ASIC office.

5.3 No authorisation beyond information contained within this Retail Offer Booklet

Any information or representation not contained in this Retail Offer Booklet may not be relied on as having been authorised by CPFL in connection with the Entitlement Offer. No person is authorised to give any information or make any representation in connection with the Entitlement Offer, which is not contained in this Retail Offer Booklet.

5.4 No cooling-off rights

Cooling-off rights do not apply to a subscription for New Units under the Entitlement Offer. This means that you cannot withdraw your Application once it has been accepted.

5.5 Notice to nominees and custodians

The Retail Entitlement Offer is being made to all Eligible Retail Unitholders. Nominees with registered addresses in the eligible jurisdictions, irrespective of whether they participate under the Institutional Entitlement Offer, may also be able to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of some or all of the beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold Units, provided that the applicable beneficiary would satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Unitholder.

Nominees and custodians who hold Units as nominees or custodians will have received, or will shortly receive, a letter from CMA in respect of the Entitlement Offer. Nominees and custodians should consider carefully the contents of that letter and note in particular that the Retail Entitlement Offer is not available to, and they must not purport to accept the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of:

a) Beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold Units who would not satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Unitholder;

b) Eligible Institutional Unitholders who were invited to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer (whether they accepted their Entitlement or not);

c) Ineligible Unitholders who were ineligible to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer; or

d) Unitholders who are not eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

In particular, persons acting as nominees for other persons must not take up any Entitlements on behalf of, or send any documents related to the Entitlement Offer to, any person in the United States or any person that is acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States.

CMA is not required, and does not undertake to, determine whether or not any Unitholder or investor is acting as a nominee or custodian or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of existing Units or Entitlements. Where any person is acting as a nominee or custodian for a foreign person, that person, in dealing with its beneficiary, will need to assess whether indirect participation in the Entitlement Offer by the beneficiary complies with applicable foreign laws. CMA is not able to advise on foreign laws. Eligible Retail Unitholders who are nominees or custodians are therefore advised to seek independent advice as to how to proceed.

5.6 Underwriting arrangements and fees

Moelis Australia Advisory Pty Ltd and UBS AG, Australia Branch (the Underwriters ) will be acting as joint lead managers, joint bookrunners and joint underwriters of the Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer. CPFL has entered into the Underwriting Agreement with the Underwriters in respect of the Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer.

CPFL must pay the Underwriters an underwriting fee of 2% of the proceeds of the Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer (other than in respect of units subscribed for by certain CNI entities) and a management fee of 0.5% of the proceeds of the Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer. CPFL must also pay or reimburse the Underwriters for costs they have incurred in respect of the Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer, including legal fees (up to an agreed cap), reasonable out of pocket expenses (including travel expenses, bookbuild expenses and stamp duty or similar taxes payable in respect of the Underwriting Agreement). Subject to certain exceptions, CPFL has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters, their affiliates and related bodies corporate (as that expression is defined in the Corporations Act), and their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, agents, advisers, contractors and representatives (each an Indemnified Party) from and against all losses suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Party, directly or indirectly in connection with the Equity Raising or the Underwriting Agreement.

As is customary with these types of arrangements, the Underwriting Agreement contains representations and warranties and indemnities in favour of the Underwriters. The Underwriters may, in certain circumstances, terminate their obligations under the Underwriting Agreement on the occurrence of certain termination events (in some circumstances, having regard to the materiality of the relevant event) including, but not limited to, where:

• in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters, a material statement in this Retail Offer Booklet or other Equity Raising documents

• there are certain delays in the timetable for the Equity Raising without the Underwriters’ prior written consent;

• CMA or CPFL breaches, or defaults under any provision, undertaking, covenant or ratio of a material debt or financing arrangement or any related documentation to which that entity is a party, which is not promptly waived by the relevant financier or financiers, and the effect of which has or is likely to have a material adverse effect;

• an event of default or event which gives a lender or financier the right to accelerate or require repayment of the debt or financing, or other similar material event occurs under or in respect to any such debt or financing arrangement or related documentation which is not promptly waived by the relevant financier or financiers, the effect of which has or is likely to have a material adverse effect;

• any financing or related arrangement referred to in the Investor Presentation is not or will not be refinanced, terminated, amended or entered in to (or a consent or waiver is or will not be given in relation to any such financing or related arrangement) in the manner or by the time described in the Investor Presentation;

• there is a change in the board of directors or senior management of CPFL without the prior written consent of the Underwriters;

• ASIC or another government agency issues proceedings or notifies CPFL in writing that it has commenced or intends to commence any investigation, proceedings or hearing in relation to the Equity Raising, which is not withdrawn or disposed of to the Underwriters’ satisfaction within one business day or by 2.00 pm on the next settlement date to occur;

• CMA ceases to be admitted to the official list of ASX or the Units cease trading or are suspended from official quotation or cease to be quoted on ASX (other than an agreed trading halt or voluntary suspension requested by CMA for the purposes of facilitating the Equity Raising);

• ASX makes any official statement to any person, or indicates to the Issuer or the Underwriters that it will not grant permission for the official quotation of the New Units issued under any component of the Institutional Placement or the Entitlement Offer;

• an adverse change occurs in the assets, liabilities, financial position or performance, profits, losses or prospects of the REIT and CFPL (insofar as the position in relation to CPFL affects the overall position of the Fund);

• trading in all securities quoted or listed on the ASX, the London Stock Exchange or the New York Stock Exchange is suspended or limited in a material respect for 1 day (or a substantial part of 1 day) on which that exchange is open for trading.

If an Underwriter terminates the Underwriting Agreement, that Underwriter will not be obliged to perform any of their obligations which remain to be performed under the Underwriting Agreement, but the termination will not limit or prevent the exercise of any other rights or remedies which any of the parties may otherwise have under the Underwriting Agreement.

If one Underwriter terminates its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement ( Terminating Underwriter ), the other Underwriter (the Remaining Underwriter ) may elect, but is not obliged, to take up all of the rights (including the right to be paid all amounts which, at the date of termination, are not yet payable to or accrued by the Terminating Underwriter) and perform the remaining obligations of the Terminating Underwriter under the Underwriting Agreement, or permit a new underwriter to perform the remaining obligations of the Terminating Underwriter under the Underwriting Agreement subject to the agreement between the Remaining Underwriter, CFPL in its capacity as responsible entity of CMA and that new underwriter.

Neither the Underwriters nor any of their respective related bodies corporate and affiliates, nor any of their respective directors, officers, partners, employees, representatives, agents or advisers (the Limited Parties ) have authorised or caused the issue of this Retail Offer Booklet and they do not take responsibility for any statements made in this Retail Offer Booklet or any action taken by you on the basis of such information. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Limited Party excludes and disclaims all liability for any expenses, losses, damages or costs incurred by you as a result of your participation in the Entitlement Offer and this information being inaccurate or incomplete in any way for any reason, whether by negligence or otherwise.

The Underwriters and their respective affiliates and related bodies corporate may also hold interests in the securities of CMA or earn brokerage, fees or other benefits from CMA. The engagement of the Underwriters by CMA is not intended to create any agency, fiduciary or other relationship between the Underwriters and the Ineligible Unitholders or any other investor.

5.7 Control effect of the Entitlement Offer

The potential effect of the issue of New Units pursuant to the Entitlement Offer on control of CMA and the consequences of that effect will depend on a number of factors, including the current holdings of CMA Unitholders and the extent to which Eligible Unitholders take up New Units under the Entitlement Offer. As at the date of this Retail Offer Booklet, the substantial holdings notified to CMA are as follows:

Substantial holder Voting Power Number of units
CNI and its associates 24.93% 88,827,857
Lederer Group and its associates 5.14% 18,298,328

The potential effect of the Entitlement Offer on control is summarised below:

• If all Eligible Unitholders take up their entitlements under the Entitlement Offer, then the Entitlement Offer will have no significant effect on the control of CMA;

• If 50% of Eligible Unitholders take up their entitlements under the Entitlement Offer, then new investors[1] will receive 17,814,570 Units (being 3.95% of Units on issue in CMA following the Entitlement Offer and the Placements) and the interests of those Eligible Unitholders who do not take-up their Entitlements under the Entitlement Offer will be diluted;

approximately 22.60% after completion of the Entitlement Offer and Placements.

No person, other than CNI, which is already above the 20% threshold, will exceed the 20% acquisition threshold.

5.9 Consents

Statements included in this Retail Offer Booklet, or any statement on which a statement in this Retail Offer Booklet is based, are not made by the directors, officers, employees, partners, agents and advisers of CPFL, but by CPFL itself.

To the maximum extent permitted by law each of these parties expressly disclaims and takes no responsibility for any statements in or omissions from this Retail Offer Booklet other than references to its name.

5.10 Governing law

This Retail Offer Booklet, the Entitlement Offer and the contracts formed on acceptance of the Entitlement and Acceptance Forms are governed by the law applicable in New South Wales, Australia. Each Unitholder who applies for New Units submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales, Australia.

• If 25% of Eligible Unitholders take up their entitlements under the Entitlement Offer, then new investors[2] will receive 26,721,855 Units (being 5.92% of Units on issue in CMA following the Entitlement Offer and the Placements) and the interests of those Eligible Unitholders who do not take-up their Entitlements under the Entitlement Offer will be diluted; and

• If no Eligible Unitholders take up their Entitlements under the Entitlement Offer, then new investors[3] will receive 35,629,140 Units (being 7.90% of the Units on issue in CMA following the Entitlement Offer and the Placements) and the interests of all Eligible Unitholders will be diluted.

The calculations above in relation to the number of new Units to be issued to new investors do not take into account Units issued under the Institutional Placement or Units to be issued under the Conditional Placement.

The New Units offered under the Entitlement Offer will represent 7.90% of the total number of securities of CMA (post Equity Raising).

Ineligible Unitholders are not entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer and their percentage holding in CMA will be diluted.

5.8 CNI participation in Entitlement Offer and contribution

Centuria Capital Group ( CNI ) and its associates have voting power of 24.93% in CMA.

CNI intends to take up a maximum of $7.5 million of its Entitlement under the Retail Entitlement Offer. CNI will not sub-underwrite the Entitlement Offer. In addition to its participation in the Retail Entitlement Offer, CNI intends to subscribe for $30 million Units under the Conditional Placement.

As CNI has confirmed its intention to take up a maximum of $7.5 million of its Entitlement, CMA considers that CNI will be diluted to

1 Potentially including the Underwriters and certain sub-underwriters appointed in relation to the Entitlement Offer.

2 Potentially including the Underwriters and certain sub-underwriters appointed in relation to the Entitlement Offer.

3 Potentially including the Underwriters and certain sub-underwriters appointed in relation to the Entitlement Offer.

"8 Central Avenue is located in the South Eveleigh Precinct, 4km south of the Sydney CBD and in close proximity to Redfern Station, Sydney University and Newtown Entertainment Precinct. The area is rapidly gentrifying with significant adjacent developments creating a vibrant workplace with substantial amenity. The acquisition of 8 Central Avenue further consolidates CMA's exposure to key Sydney metropolitan markets."

"William Square is centrally located in Northbridge, just north of Perth’s CBD, approximately 350 metres from Perth bus and train interchange. The Northbridge area has been the subject of approximately $6 billion of Government and private investment, with a number of new hotels and retail offerings improving the appeal of the area to tenants. The acquisition of William Square increases CMA's exposure to Perth as

market conditions improve and provides an attractive value spread to comparable quality properties on the East Coast."

"The Acquisitions are underpinned by a WALE of 8.1 years and fixed rental reviews of 3% per annum or greater across 90% of income. CMA's portfolio composition is enhanced with the introduction of a number of new high quality tenants, with the proportion of income from Government tenants increasing from 11% to 20%, and the portfolio WALE increasing from 3.9 years to 4.8 years[7] ."

EQUITY RAISING

To partially fund the Acquisitions, CMA is undertaking a $273 million Equity Raising, comprising:

  • an underwritten 1 for 10 accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer to raise $102 million ( Entitlement Offer );

  • an underwritten institutional placement to raise $141 million ( Institutional Placement ); and

  • a conditional placement of $30 million to Centuria Capital Group ( CNI ), which is subject to CMA securityholder approval ( Conditional Placement ).

The Issue Price of $2.86 per CMA security represents a:

  • 3.2% discount to the distribution-adjusted last close price of $2.96 on 17 September 2019[8] ;

  • 4.0% discount to the distribution-adjusted 5 day VWAP of $2.98 on 17 September 2019[9] ;

  • 6.6% forecast FY20 funds from operations ( FFO ) yield; and

  • 6.2% forecast FY20 distribution yield.

New securities issued under the Equity Raising will rank equally with existing CMA securities from the date of issue, however as they are issued after the distribution record date, new securities will not be entitled to the distribution for the quarter ending 30 September 2019 of 4.45 cents per security.

CNI, CMA's largest securityholder, has committed to take up $37.5 million under the Equity Raising, comprising $30.0 million under the Conditional Placement and $7.5 million in the Entitlement Offer.

SECURITYHOLDER APPROVAL

The 50% interest in 8 Central Avenue is being acquired from Centuria 8 Central Ave Fund, a closed-end unlisted fund managed by CPFL which has reached the end of its investment term[10] .

Key risks

C E N T U R I A M E T R O P O L I T A N R E I T A S X : C M A 1 9 Photo: William Square, 235 William Street, Northbridge WA

Key risks

==> picture [66 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

Acquisition risks

The Acquisitions are subject to a number of completion conditions. In particular, the acquisition of 8 Central Avenue is subject to approval of the acquisition from CMA securityholders via an ordinary resolution and approval from Centuria 8 Central Ave Fund unitholders via a special resolution, pursuant to the listing rules and the Corporations Act.

In respect of each Acquisition, if one or more of the completion conditions are not satisfied or waived, the acquisition will not proceed. If the acquisition of 8 Central Avenue does not proceed, Securities will not be issued under the Conditional Placement.

Additionally, there is no guarantee that CMA will be able to complete all current or future acquisitions. To the extent that the Acquisitions or any future acquisitions are not successfully integrated with CMA's existing business, the financial performance of CMA could be materially adversely affected.

There is also a risk that CMA will be unable to identify future acquisition opportunities that meet its investment objectives, or if such acquisitions are identified, that they can be acquired on appropriate terms, thereby potentially limiting the growth of CMA and its funds management business. Any failure to identify appropriate assets or successfully acquire such assets could materially adversely effect the growth prospects and financial performance of CMA. While it is CMA's policy to conduct a thorough due diligence process in relation to any such acquisition, risks remain that are inherent in such acquisitions.

Conditional Placement risk:

The Conditional Placement is conditional on obtaining approval of the placement from CMA securityholders via an ordinary resolution, pursuant to the ASX Listing Rules. If CMA is unable to obtain the required approval from its securityholders, the Conditional Placement will not proceed and New Securities under the Conditional Placement will not be issued to CNI.

Underwriting risk

CPFL as responsible entity of CMA has entered into an underwriting agreement with the Underwriters for the Equity Raising (other than in respect of the commitments received from certain Centuria entities) (Underwriting Agreement). The Underwriters’ obligation to underwrite the Equity Raising is subject to customary terms and conditions, including termination rights for the Underwriters in specific circumstances.

If the Underwriters are entitled to, and do, terminate the Underwriting Agreement and CMA is not otherwise able to raise the full $273 million equity capital required, it would not be able to complete the Acquisitions, which would be likely to materially and adversely affect CMA’s financial position and the market price for CMA securities.

Capital expenditure risk

CMA is responsible for capital repairs at its properties (including at its properties where it has a leasehold interest). CMA may incur capital expenditure costs for unforeseen structural problems arising from a defect in a property or alterations required due to changes in statutory and compliance requirements (such as changes to environmental, building or safety regulations and standards). Over time, capital expenditure will be required to maintain the properties, and also to improve the properties or to install market-standard equipment, technologies and systems to retain and attract tenants. There is a risk that this capital expenditure could exceed the expenditure forecasted which may result in increased funding costs, lower distributions and property valuation write-downs.

The facades of certain properties within CMA's portfolio, including each of the Acquisition properties, contain an element of aluminium composite panelling (ACP). CMA has engaged external consultants to review the level of fire risk and the proposed cost for remediation works to reduce the level of fire risk which has been included in the capital expenditure budgets. There is a risk that changes in building and safety regulations and standards could result in additional capital expenditure in relation to the panelling.

In particular, CMA has formed the view that ACP at 8 Central Avenue needs to be completely replaced and has accordingly negotiated an adjustment to the purchase price for the budgeted cost of the ACP replacement.

Annexure B – Investor Presentation

Key risks (cont’d)

==> picture [67 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

General economic conditions

CMA’s financial performance, and the market price of CMA securities, is influenced by a variety of general economic and business conditions, including the level of inflation, interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, ability to access funding, oversupply and demand conditions, government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policy changes in gross domestic product and economic growth, employment levels and consumer spending, consumer and investment sentiment and property market volatility. Prolonged deterioration in any or all of these conditions, an increase in the cost of capital or a decrease in consumer demand, could have a materially adverse impact on CMA’s financial performance.

Inflation

Higher than expected inflation rates generally or specific to the property sector could be expected to increase operating costs.

Litigation and disputes

Disputes or litigation may arise from time to time in the course of business activities. There is a risk that material or costly disputes or litigation could adversely affect financial performance and the value of CMA securities.

Occupational health and safety

CMA is subject to laws and regulations governing health and safety matters.

Failure to comply with the necessary occupational health and safety requirements across the jurisdictions in which CMA operates could result in fines, penalties and compensation for damages as well as reputational damage.

Market risks

Investors should be aware that the market price of CMA securities and the future distributions made to CMA securityholders may be influenced by a number of factors that are common to most listed investments, some of which are beyond CMA’s control. At any point in time, these may include:

  • the Australian and international economic outlook;

  • movements in the general level of prices on international and local equity and credit markets;

  • changes in economic conditions including inflation, recessions and interest rates;

  • changes in market regulators’ policies and practice in relation to regulatory legislation;

  • changes in government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies; and

  • the demand for CMA securities.

The market price of CMA securities may therefore not reflect the underlying NTA of CMA.

C E N T U R I A M E T R O P O L I T A N R E I T A S X : C M A 2 1

Key risks (cont’d)

==> picture [66 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

Other factors

Other factors that may affect CMA’s performance include changes or disruptions to political, regulatory, legal or economic conditions or to the national or international financial markets including as a result of terrorist attacks or war.

Leasing terms and tenant defaults

  • The future financial performance of CMA will largely depend on its ability to lease properties that become vacant on expiry of leases, on economically favourable terms. Insolvency or financial distress of any of the tenants may reduce the income received from the assets.

Liquidity of property investments

The nature of investments in property assets may make it difficult to generate liquidity in the short term if there is a need to respond to changes in economic or other conditions.

Asset values

Asset values are affected by many factors including prevailing market conditions, risk appetite, volume of sales, the ability to procure tenants, contracted rental returns, operating, maintenance and refurbishment expenses and the funding environment. Asset value declines may increase gearing levels and their proximity to covenant limits.

Counterparty/Credit risk

CMA is exposed to the risk that third parties, such as tenants, developers, service providers and counterparties to other contracts may not be willing or able to perform their obligations.

Fixed nature of costs

Many costs associated with the ownership and management of property assets are fixed in nature. The value of assets may reduce if the income from the asset declines and these fixed costs remain unchanged.

Insurance

CMA purchases insurance, customarily carried by property owners, managers, developers and construction entities, which provides a degree of protection for its assets, liabilities and people. Such policies include material damage of assets, contract works, business interruption, general and professional liability and workers compensation. There are however certain risks that are uninsurable (e.g. nuclear, chemical or biological incidents) or risks where the insurance coverage is reduced (e.g. cyclone, earthquake).

CMA also faces risk associated with the financial strength of its insurers to meet indemnity obligations when called upon, which could reduce earnings.

Force majeure risk

There are some events that are beyond the control of CMA or any other party, including acts of God, fires, floods, earthquakes, wars, strikes and acts of terrorism. Some force majeure risks are effectively uninsurable, and if such events occur they may have materially adverse effects on CMA.

Key risks (cont’d)

==> picture [66 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

Regulatory issues and changes in law

CMA is exposed to the risk that there may be changes in laws that negatively affect financial performance (such as by directly or indirectly reducing income or increasing costs).

Competition

CMA faces competition from within the A-REIT sector, and also operates with the threat of new competition entering the market. The existence of such competition may have an adverse impact on CMA's ability to

secure tenants for its properties at satisfactory rental rates and on a timely basis, or the pricing of construction projects or development opportunities, which in turn may negatively affect CMA's financial performance and returns to its investors.

Environmental

A-REITs are exposed to a range of environmental risks, which may result in project delays or additional expenditure. In such situations, they may be required to undertake remedial works and potentially be exposed to third party liability claims and/or environmental liabilities such as penalties or fines.

Returns from investment

Returns from property investment assets largely depend on the rental income generated from the property and the expenses incurred in the operation of that property, including the management and maintenance of the property as well as the changes in the market value of the property. Factors that may reduce these returns include:

  • the overall conditions in the national and local economy, such as changes to growth in gross domestic product, employment, inflation and interest rates;

  • local real estate conditions, such as changes in the demand and supply for retail, office, industrial or hotel/tourism assets or rental space;

  • the perception of prospective tenants regarding attractiveness and convenience of assets;

  • the convenience and quality of properties;

  • changes in tenancy laws;

  • external factors including war, terrorist or force majeure events;

  • unforeseen capital expenditure;

  • supply of new properties and other investment assets; and

  • investor demand/liquidity in investments.
