Eligible securityholders may elect to have all or part of their distributions paid in Ingenia securities in accordance with the DRP rules. Securities will be provided under the DRP free of brokerage and other transaction costs.

The Group will release an announcement to the ASX regarding the next distribution in due course.
If you do not wish to participate in the DRP, you do not need to do anything. You will continue to receive distribution payments from the Group in accordance with current arrangements.
Ingenia recommends that you seek your own independent financial and taxation advice about the consequences of your participation in the DRP.
Yours faithfully

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Distribution Reinvestment Plan?
The Distribution Reinvestment Plan ( Plan ) provides eligible Securityholders with a way to automatically reinvest all or part of their Income Distribution in additional fully paid Stapled Securities.
Am I eligible to participate?
The Plan is available to all Securityholders holding fully paid Stapled Securities and who are resident in Australia or New Zealand. The Board has an overriding discretion to accept participation under the Plan from a Securityholder who is a resident of or subject to the laws of any country outside of Australia or New Zealand where the Board is satisfied, in its absolute discretion, that the Plan and issue or transfer of Stapled Securities under the Plan to such Securityholder is lawful and permitted without the requirement for the Issuer to issue or lodge a prospectus or offer document or obtain regulatory approvals or licences in the jurisdiction in which they reside.
Any Securityholder outside of Australia or New Zealand who wishes to request the Board to exercise its discretion to permit them to participate in the Plan should contact the Issuer on [•]. The Securityholder will be required to provide the Issuer with a written legal advice from an internationally recognised law firm and a warranty as to their eligibility to participate in the Plan.
Please see condition 1 for further information regarding eligibility.
What is the Issue Price?
The Issue Price of the Stapled Securities issued under the Plan is the Market Price, less any Discount the Board may apply from time to time in its discretion.
The Market Price of the Stapled Securities is the average of the daily volume weighted average price of Stapled Securities sold on the ASX during the 10 Business Days up to and including the Plan Record Date to which the Income Distribution relates.
How do I participate or change my level of participation in the Plan?
If you are an eligible Securityholder who wishes to elect to participate in the Plan or vary your existing participation in the Plan, please complete a Plan Application Form and either lodge the completed Plan Application online or send the completed Application Form to the Security Registry (details set out below).
Plan Application Forms are available at [•].
Is participation compulsory?
Participation by eligible Securityholders is completely optional and you should consider seeking independent legal or financial advice before deciding whether to participate in the Plan.
Is there a cost to participate?
There are no brokerage, commission or other transaction costs payable by Participants in respect of Stapled Securities issued or transferred under the Plan.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan | 13617118.1 PAC PPB
11
==> picture [75 x 53] intentionally omitted <==
Currently under Australian law, no stamp duty or other duties are payable in connection with the Plan.
When will my participation in the Plan begin?
Your participation under the Plan will begin on the first Payment Record Date after the Issuer or the Security Registry has accepted a completed Plan Application Form. For an application or variation of a Participant’s participation to be effective, the Plan Application Form must be accepted by the Issuer or the Security Registry by 5pm on the Payment Record Date for that particular Income Distribution.
How many Stapled Securities will I receive?
The number of the new Stapled Securities to be allotted or transferred to a Participant will depend on the value of the Income Distribution declared. The number of Stapled Securities you will receive is calculated by dividing the Income Distribution, net of tax payable on your Participating Stapled Securities, by the Issue Price.
How will I know how many Stapled Securities are allotted to me?
Participants will be sent a Plan Statement within 10 Business Days of each issue or transfer of Stapled Securities. For further information regarding Plan Statements, see condition 7.
What if I have more than one Stapled Security holding?
If you have more than one Stapled Security holding, you will need to make an application to participate under the Plan for each respective holding. You will receive a separate Plan Statement for each holding.
Will the Stapled Securities issued under the Plan be the same as my existing Stapled Securities?
Yes, Stapled Securities issued or transferred under the Plan will be registered as fully paid Stapled Securities and quoted on the ASX.
Can I sell the Stapled Securities issued to me under the Plan?
Participants can sell or dispose of their Stapled Securities, including their Stapled Securities issued or transferred to them under the Plan, at any time through the ASX.
Please note, that if you have elected to only partially participate under the Plan, the number of Stapled Securities sold or disposed will first reduce the number of Non-Participating Stapled Securities held by you before, if applicable, reducing the number of your Participating Stapled Securities.
If you sell or dispose of all of your Stapled Securities in the Issuer, your participation under the Plan will terminate.
Will the Income Distributions paid under the Plan be taxed?
