Chairman’s Letter

Centuria Office REIT – Retail Entitlement Offer

Dear Unitholder,

On behalf of the Directors of Centuria Property Funds Limited ( CPFL ), I am pleased to invite you to participate in the recently announced Centuria Office REIT ( COF ) fully underwritten 1 for 6.4 accelerated non-renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer ( Entitlement Offer ) of new COF Units ( New Units ) at an issue price of $2.50 per New Unit ( Issue Price ).

ENTITLEMENT OFFER

On 6 September 2021, CPFL announced its intention to raise approximately $201 million for COF by way of an accelerated nonrenounceable pro-rata entitlement offer to Eligible Institutional Unitholders ( Institutional Entitlement Offer ) and Eligible Retail Unitholders ( Retail Entitlement Offer ). The Board is pleased to provide Eligible Unitholders with an opportunity to increase their investment in COF and to support the ongoing execution of its growth strategy.

The Institutional Entitlement Offer was well supported and raised approximately $129 million, including Centuria Capital Group's entitlement of approximately $25.5 million.

The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by MA Moelis Australia Advisory Pty Ltd (ABN 72 142 008 446) and Morgan Stanley Australia Securities Limited (ABN 55 078 652 276), both of which are acting as joint lead managers and underwriters to the Entitlement Offer ( Underwriters ), subject to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement (see Section 5.6 for more details).

USE OF PROCEEDS

CPFL intends to use the proceeds of the Entitlement Offer:

  • a. to partially fund the acquisition of a 100% freehold interest in the land and building at 101 Moray Street, South Melbourne, Victoria ( South Melbourne Property ) for a purchase price of $205.1 million ( South Melbourne Acquisition ); and

  • b. to partially fund the acquisition of the remaining 50% leasehold interest in the land and building at 203 Pacific Highway, St Leonards, NSW ( St Leonards Property ) for a purchase price of $68 million ( St Leonards Acquisition ),

(together, the Acquisitions ).

The contract for the acquisition of the South Melbourne Property has been entered into with settlement to occur on 30 September 2021. COF has received and accepted a pre-emptive notice for the St Leonards Property with exchange of conditional contracts expected prior to 10 September 2021.

UNITHOLDER APPROVAL FOR THE ST LEONARDS ACQUISITION

The leasehold interest in the St Leonards Property are currently owned by:

  • a. CPFL as responsible entity of the Centuria 203 Pacific Highway Fund, an unlisted fixed term property trust (50%); and

  • b. CPFL as responsible entity of the Centuria Metropolitan Property Trust, which is a wholly-owned sub-fund of COF (50%).

COF has exercised its pre-emptive right under the co-owners agreement to acquire the remaining 50% leasehold interest in the St Leonards Property after the Centuria 203 Pacific Highway Fund issued COF with a transfer notice offering to sell its 50% leasehold interest in the St Leonards Property.

As the vendor is a related party of CPFL as the responsible entity of COF, approval from COF unitholders by an ordinary resolution is required for the acquisition of the remaining 50% leasehold interest under Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rule 10.1. Following completion of the Entitlement Offer, you will separately receive a notice of meeting for a meeting of Unitholders to consider, and if thought fit, approve, the St Leonards Acquisition.

Completion of the St Leonards Acquisition is conditional on this Unitholder approval and is also conditional on the unitholders of the Centuria 203 Pacific Highway Fund approving the sale by an ordinary resolution and the consent of the freehold owner of the property.

If such conditions are not satisfied, or the acquisition does not complete for any other reason, surplus proceeds from the Entitlement Offer will instead be used to pay down CPFL's existing debt facilities.

Similarly, if for any reason the South Melbourne Acquisition does not complete, surplus proceeds from the Entitlement Offer will instead be used to pay down CPFL's existing debt facilities.

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 COF's growth strategy.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is expected to raise approximately $72 million. Eligible Retail Unitholders can subscribe for 1 New Unit for every 6.4 Units held as at the Record Date at an Issue Price of $2.50 per New Unit. The Issue Price represents a discount of 3.5% to the last closing price of Units of $2.59 on 3 September 2021.

The New Units issued under the Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing Units on issue and will be entitled to participate in all distributions of COF with a record date after their date of issue.

Chairman's Letter

Centuria Office REIT – Retail Entitlement Offer

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 Unitholders on Monday, 13 September 2021.

Eligible Retail Unitholders who take up their full Entitlement may also apply for Additional New Units in excess of their Entitlement of up to 50% of their full Entitlement at the Issue Price.

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 COF please ensure that, before 5.00 pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 22 September 2021, 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 do not wish to take up any of your Entitlement, you do not have to take any action.

On behalf of the Directors of CPFL, I invite you to consider this investment and participate in the exciting next stage of COF's growth.

Yours faithfully,

You should read both documents carefully and in their entirety before deciding whether or not to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer. The Retail Offer Booklet can also be viewed at www.centuriainvestor. com.au.

This Retail Entitlement Offer is not being made under a product disclosure statement. This Retail Offer Booklet does not contain all of the information which would be required to be disclosed in a product disclosure statement.

If you are in doubt as to the course you should follow, you should seek appropriate professional advice before making an investment decision.

2. CONSIDER THE RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFER IN LIGHT OF YOUR PARTICULAR INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND CIRCUMSTANCES

Please consult with your stockbroker, accountant or other professional adviser if you have any queries or are uncertain about any aspect of the Retail Entitlement Offer.

An investment in New Units is subject to both known and unknown risks, some of which are beyond the control of COF. These risks include the possible loss of income and principal invested. CPFL does not guarantee any return, any particular rate of return, the performance on the New Units offered under the Retail Entitlement Offer, the performance of COF generally or the repayment of capital from COF. In considering an investment in New Units, investors should have regard to (amongst other things) the Key Risks section in the Investor Presentation and the disclaimers outlined in this Retail Offer Booklet.

Under the Retail Entitlement Offer, CPFL is offering Eligible Retail Unitholders the opportunity to subscribe for 1 New Unit for every 6.4 Units held on the Record Date. The Issue Price per New Unit is $2.50, the same price as offered to Eligible Institutional Unitholders under the Institutional Entitlement Offer.

Please refer to the ASX Announcement and the Investor Presentation annexed to this Retail Offer Booklet for information on the reasons for the Retail Entitlement Offer, the use of the proceeds of the Retail Entitlement Offer, and for further information on COF and its strategy.

1.2 INSTITUTIONAL ENTITLEMENT OFFER

On Monday, 6 September 2021, the Institutional Entitlement Offer was conducted with Eligible Institutional Unitholders given the opportunity to take up all or part of their Entitlement under the Institutional Entitlement Offer at an Issue Price of $2.50 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.

The New Units are expected to be issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer on Thursday, 16 September 2021.

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.

CPFL is also offering Eligible Retail Unitholders who take up their Entitlement in full the opportunity to apply for Additional New Units in excess of their Entitlement of up to 50% of their full Entitlement. Additional New Units will be available to the extent other Unitholders do not take up their full Entitlement. If the Retail Entitlement Offer is oversubscribed, the allocation of Additional New Units will be at the discretion of the Board and the Underwriters and subject to scale back on a pro-rata basis. The issue of Additional New Units (if any) will occur on Wednesday, 29 September 2021.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is only open 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 Unitholder) 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 the Board and the Underwriters. CPFL, 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 Wednesday, 22 September 2021, with New Units to be issued on Wednesday, 29 September 2021.

The Retail Entitlement Offer is underwritten by the Underwriters and seeks to raise approximately $72 million. The Issue Price under the Retail Entitlement Offer is the same as the Issue Price under the Institutional Entitlement Offer.

1.4 USE OF PROCEEDS

CPFL intends to use the proceeds of the Entitlement Offer to partially fund the Acquisitions. An overview of the sources and intended uses of proceeds in respect of the Acquisitions is set out below:

below:
SOURCES OF PROCEEDS $AUD (MILLION)

Total sources 295
USE OF FUNDS $AUD (MILLION)

Section 1 - Overview of the Entitlement 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 actually do. This could potentially result in the requirement for reconciliation to ensure all Eligible Retail Unitholders 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 not in fact Eligible Unitholders.

To the extent that the application of the offer ratio of 1 New Unit for every 6.4 existing Units held on the Record Date results in a fractional entitlement to New Units for a particular Unitholder, that Unitholder's Entitlement shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number of New Units.

1.7 QUOTATION AND TRADING

1.8 HOLDING STATEMENTS

Holding statements are expected to be despatched to Eligible Unitholders:

  • on Friday, 17 September 2021 in respect of New Units issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and Retail Entitlement Offer for Applications received by the Early Retail Acceptance Due Date; and

  • otherwise, on Friday, 1 October 2021 in respect of the remaining New Units issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer.

It is the responsibility of each applicant to confirm their holding before trading any 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 each 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 allocation provided by CPFL, the Registry or the Underwriters or otherwise.

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.

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:

  • issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and Retail Entitlement Offer for Applications received by the Early Retail Acceptance Due Date will commence on Thursday, 16 September 2021; and

  • otherwise issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer (including any Additional New Units) will commence on Thursday, 30 September 2021.

  • 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 (of up to 50% of your full Entitlement), there are two different ways you can submit your Application and Application Monies.

2.2.1 Payment via BPAY®

For payment by BPAY®, Eligible Retail Unitholders:

  • who receive the Retail Offer Booklet and their personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form by post should follow the instructions set out on that form; and

  • who have requested to receive their communications via email, will be sent a personal link to their Entitlement and Acceptance 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.

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 issued New Units the subject of your Entitlement at the same time as Eligible Institutional Unitholders under the Institutional Entitlement Offer being Thursday, 16 September 2021. To do this you must make payment of the Application Monies via BPAY® in time to ensure that cleared funds are received by CPFL by no later than 5.00 pm (Sydney Time) on Tuesday, 14 September 2021. 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 issued to you on Wednesday, 29 September 2021. Application Monies received after the Retail Closing Date will be returned to unsuccessful applicants and they will not be issued any New Units.

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. centuriainvestor.com.au) and seek appropriate professional advice if necessary; and

  • 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 $2.50 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 Wednesday, 22 September 2021.

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 Wednesday, 22 September 2021, New Units (and Additional New Units) are expected to be issued to you on the Issue Date being Wednesday, 29 September 2021. Your payment of the Application Monies will not be accepted after the Retail Closing Date, being 5.00 pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 22 September 2021, and no New Units (or Additional New Units) will be issued to you in respect of such late Application.

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 Issue Date in accordance with the Corporations Act, without interest being payable. The allocation of Additional New Units will be at the discretion of the Board and the Underwriters and subject to scale back on a pro-rata basis.

A separate Entitlement and Acceptance Form and payment of Application Monies must be completed for each separate Entitlement you hold.

2.2.3 Refund of Application Monies

Any Application Monies received for more than your final allocation of New Units and Additional New Units will be refunded as soon as practicable after issue. No interest will be paid to applicants on any Application Monies received or refunded.

2.3 TAKE NO ACTION AND ALLOW ALL OF YOUR ENTITLEMENT TO LAPSE

If you are an Eligible Retail Unitholder and you do nothing, the Entitlements in respect of your Units will lapse. Your Entitlement to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable and will not be tradeable or otherwise transferable. Unitholders who do not take up their Entitlements in full will not receive any payment or value for the Entitlements they do not take up.

You should also note that, if you do not take up all or part of your Entitlement, then your percentage holding in COF will be diluted to the extent that New Units are issued to other Unitholders.

2.4 IMPLICATIONS OF MAKING AN APPLICATION

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 total 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.

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.

The comments do not apply to you if 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.

None of CPFL, the Underwriters or any of their respective officers, employees, taxation or other advisers accept any liability or responsibility in respect of any statement concerning taxation consequences, or in respect of the taxation consequences, of the Retail Entitlement Offer.

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. 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.

3.6 DISPOSAL OF NEW UNITS AND ADDITIONAL NEW UNITS

On disposal of a New Unit or Additional New Unit (referred to in this section as a Unit), you will make a capital gain if the capital proceeds on disposal exceed the total cost base of the Unit. You will make a capital loss if the capital proceeds are less than the total reduced cost base of the Unit.

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.

3.7 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.

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. 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 nondeductible 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.

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.

3.4 ACQUIRING ADDITIONAL NEW UNITS

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

Retail Offer Booklet | 12

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 Retail Offer Booklet.

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.

None of CPFL, the Underwriters or any of their respective officers, employees, taxation or other advisers accept any liability or responsibility in respect of any statement concerning tax consequences, or in respect of the tax consequences of the Retail Entitlement Offer.

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. Investors will be taxed on their Units under one of two regimes: the ordinary tax regime or the Foreign Investment Fund ( FIF ) regime.

A Tax treatment under the ordinary tax regime

An investor will be taxed under the ordinary tax rules if the investor is a NZ resident natural person or a trustee of an eligible trust and does not hold offshore investments ( FIF Interests ) of more than NZ$50,000, unless the investor elects otherwise. FIF interests includes offshore equities and/ or units in a foreign unit trust, but excludes, amongst other things, shares in most Australian resident companies listed on the ASX or Australian unit trusts with adequate turnover or distributions ( Exclusions ). None of these exclusions prima facie seem to apply here.

Any distributions received over the life of the investments should be treated as taxable income for the investor and subject to tax at the applicable personal, corporate or trust tax rate (depending on the ownership). Taxes withheld (if any) could be available as tax credits, subject to conditions. Specific advice should be obtained on any redemptions. The tax treatment of gains arising on disposal of the Units shall depend on whether such investments have been held on capital or revenue account. Broadly, a Unit held on revenue account shall be subject to taxes at applicable income tax rates from the disposal of Units (losses could be offset against other items of income). Where the investments are held on capital account, any gains (losses) on disposal of Units will not be taxable (deductible). Such classification is fact-specific and may vary on a case-to-case basis. Investors should retain appropriate documentation to support any capital or revenue classification.

B Tax treatment under the FIF Regime

Other investors (not covered above) will be taxed under the FIF regime ( FIF Investors ). NZ tax laws provide for various methods to compute FIF income ( FIF Methods ). The most commonly used FIF Methods in case of investments in overseas funds/ foreign companies where the market value of the investments are readily available (including the Retail Entitlement Offer in this instance), have been summarised below:

  • Fair dividend rate method: Under these rules, the FIF income is equal to 5% of the market value of the Units at the beginning of the income year. Any profits from selling or redeeming the Units and any dividends or redemption proceeds received are ignored, subject to the following:

  • If a FIF Investor bought and later sold Units in the same income year, then the FIF Investor has additional taxable income equal to the lesser of:

  • ° The actual gain from the Units both bought and sold during the income year (including any distributions paid on them) (quick sale gain method). For this purpose, the last Unit acquired is deemed to be the first sold; or

  • ° 5% of the difference between the greatest number of Units the FIF Investor held at any time during the income year and the number of Units the FIF Investor held at the beginning or end of the year (whichever produces the smaller difference), multiplied by the average cost of all Units acquired during the income year (peak holding method).

  • Comparative value method: If a FIF Investor is a natural person or a family trust and its actual realised and unrealised return from its total portfolio of offshore equity investments is lower than the amount calculated under the fair dividend rate method described above, then the investor can elect to be taxed on its actual realised and unrealised returns (including dividends).

Natural person and family trust FIF Investors are allowed to calculate their FIF income using either of the FIF Methods which produces a lower income.

The method, if eligible, is chosen by taxpayer election. Where the FIF rules apply, the dividends are not taxable in NZ under most of the applicable FIF Methods.

Application of these rules is facts and circumstances specific. The FIF regime described above is subject to various exceptions as noted above. Investors should seek specific tax advice if they believe the FIF regime may apply to them. Accordingly, the comments that follow describe the expected incremental NZ tax impact of the Retail Entitlement Offer.

4.3 ISSUE OF ENTITLEMENTS

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

13 | Centuria Office REIT

Section 4 - New Zealand Taxation

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 could 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.

The cost of the Additional New Units should equal the Issue Price for the Additional New Units.

The acquisition of New Units could 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 (i.e. either under the ordinary tax regime or the FIF Regime noted above).

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 (i.e. either under the ordinary tax regime or the FIF Regime noted above).

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. The Inland Revenue website contains guidance on how to do this.

4.9 ENTITLEMENTS NOT TAKEN UP

Any Entitlement not taken up under the Retail Entitlement Offer will lapse and the Eligible Retail Unitholders will not receive any consideration for those Entitlements. In these circumstances, there should not be any NZ tax implications for the Eligible Retail Unitholders.

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 or Additional New Units pursuant to the Retail Entitlement Offer. There is no NZ stamp duty.

Please read the Retail Offer Booklet and the Entitlement and Acceptance Form together in their entirety.

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 or accessed at www.centuriainvestor.com.au (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, CPFL is considered a disclosing entity in relation to COF 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 for COF.

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 the 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 CPFL 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:

  • beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold Units who would not satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Unitholder;

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

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

  • 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.

CPFL 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. CPFL 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

MA Moelis Australia Advisory Pty Ltd and Morgan Stanley Australia Securities Limited will be acting as joint lead managers, joint bookrunners and joint underwriters of the Entitlement Offer. CPFL has entered into the Underwriting Agreement with the Underwriters in respect of the Entitlement Offer.

CPFL must pay the Underwriters (in total):

  • an underwriting fee of 2.00% of the proceeds of the Entitlement Offer (excluding proceeds from New Units subscribed for by certain Centuria entities); and

  • a management fee of 0.50% of the proceeds of the Entitlement Offer (excluding proceeds from New Units subscribed for by certain Centuria entities).

CPFL must also pay or reimburse the Underwriters for costs they have incurred in respect of 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 term 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 Entitlement Offer or the Underwriting Agreement.

As is customary with these types of arrangements, the Underwriting Agreement contains representations and warranties indemnities and releases in favour of the Underwriters.

The Underwriting Agreement contains a number of conditions that CPFL is responsible for satisfying prior to the Entitlement Offer. If certain of these conditions are not satisfied or other events occur, each of the Underwriters may terminate the Underwriting Agreement or are not obliged to perform their obligations in relation to the Entitlement Offer. If the Underwriting Agreement is terminated or the Underwriters are not obliged to perform their obligations in relation to the Entitlement Offer, this may have a material adverse effect on the total amount of proceeds that could be raised under the Entitlement Offer.

COF has entered into the contract for the acquisition of 101 Moray Street, South Melbourne with settlement to occur on 30 September 2021. COF has received and accepted a pre-emptive notice for 203 Pacific Highway with exchange of conditional contracts expected prior to 10 September 2021. Further details around the conditionality are outlined below.

COF Fund Manager, Mr Grant Nichols commented: “The Acquisitions are high quality office properties, strategically located in key Melbourne and Sydney near city and metropolitan locations that offer excellent surrounding tenant amenity and accessibility.”

“101 Moray Street is located in the attractive near city location of South Melbourne, just one kilometre from the Melbourne CBD. The area has become a desirable location for Melbourne tenants, particularly tech and media, as South Melbourne offers iconic retail amenity with access to key transport infrastructure. The asset is a brand new prime grade office building with CBD views and built to the highest specification, with a focus on delivering a unique tenant experience. It was fully leased within nine months of practical completion and now enjoys a strong and diversified income profile.”

“203 Pacific Highway is located in the heart of the St Leonards business precinct, directly above the entrance to the railway station, approximately four kilometres north of the Sydney CBD.

203 Pacific Highway Acquisition

COF presently owns a 50% leasehold interest in 203 Pacific Highway. The remaining 50% leasehold interest is being acquired from Centuria 203 Pacific Highway Fund (203 PH Fund), a closed-end unlisted fund managed by CPFL. COF and the 203 PH Fund are parties to a co-owners agreement in respect of the property.

COF has exercised its pre-emptive right under the co-owners agreement to acquire the remaining 50% leasehold interest after the 203 PH Fund issued COF with a transfer notice to sell its interest in the property. Exchange of conditional contracts is expected prior to 10 September 2021.

As the parties are related parties, completion of the acquisition is subject to approval by the COF unitholders by an ordinary resolution for the purposes of the ASX Listing Rules and Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act. Completion of the acquisition is also subject to:

  • approval by the unitholders of the 203 PH Fund by an ordinary resolution; and

  • the freehold owner of 203 Pacific Highway consenting, in accordance with the terms of the ground lease, to the assignment of 203 PH Fund's interest under the ground lease to COF and the grant of a mortgage to COF's mortgagee.

If the contract is not entered into for any reason or one or more of the conditions precedent to completion are not satisfied, the acquisition of 203 Pacific Highway will not proceed. If the acquisition does not complete, the subscription monies will not be returned, instead the surplus proceeds of the Offer will be used to pay down COF's existing debt facilities.

101 Moray Street Acquisition

Completion of the acquisition of 101 Moray Street is not subject to conditions precedent however if the acquisition does not complete for any reason, the subscription monies received will not be returned. Instead, the surplus proceeds of the Offer will be used to reduce COF's existing debt facilities.

Acquisition risks generally

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

There is also a risk that COF 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 COF and its funds management business. Any failure to

identify appropriate assets or successfully acquire such assets could materially adversely affect the growth prospects and financial performance of COF. While it is COF's policy to conduct a thorough due diligence process in relation to any such acquisition, risks remain that are inherent in such acquisitions.

Underwriting risk

CPFL as responsible entity of COF 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).

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 COF is not otherwise able to raise the full $201 million equity capital required, it would not be able to complete the Acquisitions, which would be likely to materially and adversely affect COF’s financial position and the market price for COF securities.

A summary of the termination rights for the Underwriters is set out on pages 24 to 26.

Capital expenditure risk

COF is generally responsible for capital repairs at its properties (including at its properties where it has a leasehold interest). COF 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.

Impact of COVID-19 and Macroeconomic Risks

The Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in significant national and global market turbulence and has created substantial volatility in the prices of securities trading on the ASX, including the price of units in COF. The uncertainty associated with the pandemic means that the broader impacts of it and how long they will occur for are unknown. Among other things, this relates to the state and federal response to mitigate Covid-19, the closure of many businesses across the country, affiliated unemployment and tightening travel restrictions, all of which may have some impact on the performance of COF, tenants of COF, the Australian share market and the broader economy.

Annexure B - Investor Presentation

– Appendix B Key Risks (cont.)

Given the uncertainty surrounding the extent and duration of COVID-19, it is not currently possible to assess the full impact of COVID-19 on COF’s business. A number of COF’s tenants are directly or indirectly affected by government, regulatory or health authority actions, work stoppages, lockdowns, quarantines and travel restrictions associated with COVID-19. This may negatively impact their ability to meet their rent obligations. While COF expects it will have significant cash and headroom under the debt facility to deal with the circumstances relating to COVID-19, there is a risk that if the duration of events surrounding COVID-19 are prolonged, COF may need to take additional measures in order to respond appropriately.

There are also other changes in the domestic and global macroeconomic environment associated with the events relating to COVID-19 that are beyond the control of COF and may be exacerbated in an economic recession or downturn. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Changes in inflation, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates;

  • Changes in employment level and labour costs;

  • Changes in aggregate investment and economic output; and

  • Other changes in economic conditions which may affect the ability of COF to attract or retain new tenants

Tenants and rental income

The profitability of COF is tied to the maintenance of tenancies and their success. This counterparty risk means that COF must maintain strong relationships with its tenants despite the possibility of their inability to satisfy their contractual obligations in the current uncertain and unstable economic environment. If a tenant or group of tenants are unable to fulfil their obligations to COF, the operating and financial performance of COF will be significantly adversely affected. Similarly, if COF cannot lease vacant space on economically favourable terms, the operating and financial performance of COF will be significantly adversely affected.

The severity of this risk is significantly enhanced by the COVID-19 pandemic and government regulations implemented to mitigate the spread of the virus. State implemented moratorium regulations and, any further changes to legislation yet to be announced, may adversely affect COF's ability to manage the performance of its tenants and may limit COF's availability to recourse for any tenants in default during the term of the regulations.

non-essential services will likely result in a significant reduction in foot traffic for many retail businesses, which will adversely impact the financial position of many tenants across the country. The associated accumulation of rental arrears may have flow on impacts for COF. It may also effect COF's ability to lease properties that become vacant on economically favourable terms.

The severity and length of this uncertainty may materially impact the performance and prospects of COF for the foreseeable future.

General economic conditions

COF’s financial performance, and the market price of COF units, 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 COF’s financial performance. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Inflation

Higher than expected inflation rates generally or specific to the property sector could be expected to increase operating costs and development costs and may exceed any rental increases under relevant leases.

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 COF units.

Occupational health and safety

COF 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 COF operates could result in fines, penalties and compensation for damages as well as reputational damage.

In addition, COVID-19 and implemented government regulations are leading to reduced consumption in some industries as consumers face significant uncertainty. Coupled with market interventions limiting

– Appendix B Key Risks (cont.)

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

COF 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

COF 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).

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

uninsurable, and if such events occur they may have materially adverse effects on COF.

Funding

Economic, political, capital and credit market conditions influence whether COF will be able to raise funds on favourable terms, if at all, in order to proceed with future commercial activities. These conditions are in flux due to COVID-19. An inability to raise funds, or a limitation to poor terms of funding will have an adverse impact on COF's ability to acquire or improve assets, or contribute towards debt refinancing.

Refinancing Requirements

COF currently is exposed to risks stemming from the refinancing of existing debt instruments and facilities. There is no guarantee that COF will be able to refinance some or all of its debt facilities as they mature in the future on the same terms or at all.

Regulatory issues and changes in law

COF 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

COF 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 COF'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 COF'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.

Force majeure risk

There are some events that are beyond the control of COF or any other party, including acts of God, fires, floods, earthquakes, wars, strikes and acts of terrorism. Some force majeure risks are effectively

– Appendix B Key Risks (cont.)

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;

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

  • the demand for COF securities.

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

Other factors

Other factors that may affect COF’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.

  • 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.

Market risks

Investors should be aware that the market price of COF units and the future distributions made to COF unitholders may be influenced by a number of factors that are common to most listed investments, some of which are beyond COF’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;

Appendix D – Material Contracts

Underwriting Agreement

Centuria Property Funds Limited (ACN 086 553 639) ( CPFL or the Issuer ) as responsible entity for the Centuria Office REIT (ARSN 124 364 718) ( COF ) has entered into an underwriting agreement with MA Moelis Australia Advisory Pty Ltd (ACN 142 008 446) ( MA Moelis ) and Morgan Stanley Australia Securities Limited (ACN 078 652 276) ( Morgan Stanley ) (MA Moelis and Morgan Stanley together, the Underwriters ), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to manage and underwrite the Equity Raising ( Underwriting Agreement ).

The Underwriting Agreement contains a number of conditions that the Issuer is responsible for satisfying prior to the Equity Raising. If these conditions are not satisfied or other events occur, each of the Underwriters may terminate the Underwriting Agreement or are not obliged to perform their obligations in relation to the Equity Raising.

Part of the purchase price will be withheld on settlement and deposited in the purchaser's solicitor's trust account until the relevant certificate has been obtained, and the vendor indemnifies the purchaser for any loss arising from the failure to obtain that certificate. The indemnity is supported by a corporate guarantee from an entity of substance.

A building order was issued in respect of the Property dated 2 March 2021. Under the Contract, the Vendor is liable for complying with that order and indemnifies Centuria for any loss arising in connection with that order, except to the extent the order relates to works being undertaken by a tenant. The indemnity is supported by a corporate guarantee from an entity of substance.

In particular, this presentation includes forward-looking statements regarding the completion of the Acquisitions (as defined herein), the performance of COF after completion of the Acquisitions, statements about COF's plans, future developments and strategy and statements about the outcome and effects of the Equity Raising and the use of proceeds. Investors are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward looking statements, particularly in light of the current economic climate and the significant volatility, uncertainty and disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The financial information includes non-GAAP measures within the meaning of Regulation G under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and non-IFRS measures under ASIC Regulatory Guide 230 "Disclosing non-IFRS financial information" published by ASIC, which have been included because COF believes it provides users with additional relevant information.
