| Company Overview | ||||||
| Since our inception, we have worked to develop strategic, sector-focused business |
districts across Dubai. These ecosystems have attracted leading global and regional corporations, entrepreneurs and specialised talent for more than two decades, contributing to the emirate's economic diversification, competitiveness and global positioning.
Our business districts and other commercial assets enjoy strategic locations across the city and are divided into four main categories: offices and workspaces (commercial leasing), industrial properties (industrial leasing), lands for lease (land leasing) and services and others.
To deliver a competitive and attractive environment for businesses and entrepreneurs to thrive and facilitate engagement between the districts' community members, we offer additional services such as start-up incubation and venue management. We also offer corporate and government services, including licensing and visas, through an integrated digital platform, all of which provide a competitive advantage for us and additional sources of revenue.
We also own a land bank which can be leased out directly or developed for rent, providing greater opportunities to attract new tenants and customers or allow existing ones to expand operations.
Our ten business districts host customers from specific economic industry sectors, which we refer to as "clusters". Our activities are focused on the following six clusters: tech, media, education, science, design, and manufacturing. Our business districts also include enabling assets that are designed to attract and retain local and international customers. Our portfolio includes a mix of CBD and non-CBD properties, with Dubai Internet City, Dubai Media City, Dubai Knowledge Park and Dubai Design District being our CBD properties. The remainder of our business districts are categorised as non-CBD.

As at 31 March 2022, our built to lease properties covered a total leasable area of 21.1 million square feet, consisting of 9.6 million square feet of commercial (built to lease and built to suit offices and retail) properties and 11.5 million square feet of industrial properties. Our land properties covered a total of 164.8 million square feet of land, consisting of 124.4 million square feet of land leases and 40.4 million square feet of land bank.
Company Background and History
We have always focused on enabling several governmental strategies and economic objectives through plans to drive economic diversification and sustainable development. The business districts were established to nurture and empower vital economic sectors which have transformed into comprehensive ecosystems that stimulate innovation and growth, enhancing Dubai's position as a global destination for business and talent, and we accommodated over 7,800 customers across the six specific industry sectors with approximately 101,000 professionals and entrepreneurs as well as approximately 28,000 students as of 31 March 2022.
The first key milestone in our journey started with the announcement for establishing Dubai Internet City, followed by Dubai Media City in 2000 and Dubai Knowledge Park in 2001. Such districts constituted a significant part of the government of Dubai's strategic plan to establish Dubai as the e-commerce, internet and media capital of the Middle East region.
The operation of business districts was under the direction of the Dubai Development Authority until 2003, when the land, buildings and assets within the DDA free zone were assigned to us by the Dubai Development Authority. Thus, in 2003, we started to operate business districts with the obligation to develop the land as part of the assignment. Since then we have continued to build business districts with the aim of supporting Dubai's transition towards a knowledge-based economy.
Driven by market demand and as part of our forward-looking strategy, we established seven additional business districts:
- In 2004: Dubai Outsource City, Dubai Production City, and Dubai Industrial City.
- In 2005: Dubai Studio City, Dubai Science Park, and Dubai International Academic City.
- In 2013: Dubai Design District.
Our ten business districts have been purposely designed to create industry-specific and vibrant ecosystems for the tech, media, education, science, design and manufacturing sectors. Additionally: (i) in 2013, we launched in5, our enabling platform for start-ups and entrepreneurs, which offers three innovation centers across three industries: tech, media and design, (ii) in 2014, we launched axs, a business and government services platform which aims to facilitate access to multiple services under one umbrella ("one-stop shop" services) to tenants, other customers, companies, employees and other individuals within our business districts, including via a digital platform and through its customer care centres, (iii) in 2018, we launched GoFreelance, a service that supports freelance talent

through a competitive package that provides them with opportunities to apply for projects and develop the network of their relationships, and (iv) in 2022, we launched D/Quarters, a future-focused co-working space for freelancers, entrepreneurs, SMEs and global corporations with flexible, scalable workspace solutions.
We undertook a pre-IPO restructuring exercise in 2022, whereby (i) Dubai Industrial City LLC was transferred into the Group by another entity in the DHAM Group, and (ii) certain entities, investments, land banks, infrastructure costs, associated government grants, land sale advances and amounts relating to capital work in progress were transferred from our Group to certain other entities in the DHAM Group and the Dubai Holding Group (the "Restructuring"). While the transfers occurred at various times, 1 January 2022 was the effective date for all legal entity, land and investment beneficial ownership transfers.
The following timeline, which also includes the platforms in5 and axs, illustrates the development of our business districts described above.

The primary objects that the Company is established for shall be in compliance with the provisions of the laws and regulations in force in the UAE and, pursuant to its Memorandum and Articles of Association, are the following:

Arrangements with DHAM's affiliates
Car Parking – Dubai Design District.
We have entered into an agreement between DHAM FZ LLC, an affiliate of DHAM, and Dubai Design District FZ LLC for car parking arrangements within Dubai Design District. Dubai Design District FZ LLC uses car parking in common with other users, with the permission of DHAM FZ LLC, within Dubai Design District. This car park is owned by DHAM FZ LLC. Pursuant to the car parking agreement, DHAM FZ LLC commits to providing alternative car parking if the car parking facilities used by Dubai Design District FZ LLC are restricted, reduced or prohibited by DHAM FZ LLC.
Security Services.
Security services for all of our business districts are currently provided by Arkan, a fully owned subsidiary of Ejadah (which is ultimately owned by Dubai Holding), through three separate agreements with TECOM Investments FZ-LLC, Dubai Design District FZ-LLC and Dubai Industrial City LLC. Services provided by Arkan to the Group for the year ended 31 December 2021 amounted to AED 26 million. The three agreements originally expired in 2021 but have recently been renewed until June 2023 by way of amendment agreements.
Facility Management.
Most facility management services at our business districts are currently outsourced to Idama, another subsidiary of Ejadah, through three separate agreements with TECOM Investments FZ-LLC, Dubai Design District FZ-LLC and Dubai Industrial City LLC – with the exception of a few larger facilities which are outsourced to other parties. Services provided by Idama include, amongst others, account management, mechanical, electrical and plumbing and specialised systems maintenance, building and fabric maintenance, soft

services (cleaning and housekeeping, waste management, pest control, indoor plant maintenance, etc.), building statutory certification and documents and health, safety and environment (HSE), road sweeping, litter picking, maintenance of street lightning, and maintenance of the sewage and storm water network.
Services by Idama to the Group for the year ended 31 December 2021 amounted to AED 78 million.
EMPOWER
Emirates Central Cooling Systems Corporation (EMPOWER), which is another related party of the Group through EMPOWER's affiliation with Dubai Holding, provides cooling services to our business districts. These services are provided under standard contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business. Services provided by EMPOWER to the Group for the year ended 31 December 2021 amounted to AED 48 million.
Master Developer Transfer Agreements
In respect of each of our business districts there is a master developer which owns the common areas of land in the business district and commits to providing community services which are recovered from plot owners by way of a service fee. These arrangements are governed by a set of rules that bind the master developer and the owners of the plots within the business district, known as the master community declaration (which applies to each business district).
As part of the Restructuring, the master developers for the business districts were changed from entities in the Group (the "Prior Master Developers") to affiliates of DHAM outside the Group (the "New Master Developers") effective, 1 January 2022 (the "Effective Date"). As a result of these changes, the master developers on record with the relevant authorities in respect of all the land and assets within the Group will be the New Master Developers outside the Group. Notice of these changes was served on all third parties with proprietary interest in the relevant business district.
Under the master developer transfer agreements, the Prior Master Developers, which were our subsidiaries TECOM Investments FZ LLC, Dubai Design District FZ LLC and Dubai Industrial City LLC, each (i) agreed in their capacity as plot owners within the relevant business district to comply with a standard set of provisions (which apply to the other owners in the business district) in relation to applications for additional gross floor area, construction and use of plot covenants, (ii) acknowledged and agreed that the Prior Master Developers shall remain responsible for the performance of all obligations under all existing agreements in place between it and the relevant authorities in respect of the business district, including without limitation the payment of all amounts arising thereunder, without recourse to the New Master Developers for the payment of any such amounts in whole or in part; (iii) acknowledged and agreed that the Prior Master Developers shall further remain responsible for the performance of all obligations under all existing agreements in place between it and third parties (other than authorities) and ongoing projects including without limitation the payment of all amounts arising thereunder, without recourse to the New Master Developers, unless any such amounts increase or decrease, in which event the Prior Master Developers shall charge back the New Master Developers (in case of an increase) or credit the New Master Developers (in case of a decrease) the

relevant amount on a fair and equitable basis; (iv) acknowledged and agreed that the Prior Master Developers shall further remain responsible for the performance of all obligations via-a-vis third parties (other than authorities) in connection with identified projects that have not yet commenced on land retained within the perimeter, within the relevant business districts, and should it incur any amounts in relation to areas that are not within the perimeter, the Prior Master Developers shall charge back the New Master Developers such amounts on a fair and equitable basis; and (v) acknowledged and agreed that all future agreements with the relevant authorities in respect of the business district shall be entered into by the New Master Developers and, while the New Master Developers shall pay all amounts arising thereunder to the relevant authorities, they shall charge back portions of those amounts to the Prior Master Developers on a fair and equitable basis. Such payments due from the Prior Master Developers to the New Master Developers will be paid over an agreed payment plan which is expected to be not less than 10 years, unless otherwise agreed.
Service Level Agreements with DHAM and Dubai Holding
Prior to the Restructuring, we examined services that historically were provided for the Group by Dubai Holding or DHAM to determine whether TECOM would provide these services through in-house resources or contract them out to Dubai Holding, DHAM or other third parties following the Restructuring. We considered the best manner for delivering the services, how to best control governance over sensitive data, cost efficiencies, whether we could benefit from any synergies by using Dubai Holding or DHAM for the provision of certain services and the costs of developing in-house resources over contracting out such services, amongst other considerations.
After such consideration, we designed an operating model for our Group following the Restructuring and entered into service level agreements with each of Dubai Holding and DHAM for the provision of certain services as set out below. The service level agreements contain fee schedules and service level outputs and performance requirements for the services contracted and, where sensitive information is being shared, require that a nondisclosure agreement is in place and that an information barrier is in place between the Dubai Holding or DHAM team providing the services and the DHAM investments teams that is managing its shareholding stake in the Company. We expect we may enter into additional service level agreements with the Dubai Holding Group including DHAM, from time-to-time.
The term of the service level agreements and the specific pricing and other terms vary depending on the nature of the services being offered.
The service level agreements may be terminated by mutual agreement of the parties prior to the expiry date, by TECOM unilaterally (which unilateral termination may be subject to certain conditions such as following a minimum service period or notice period) or by either party in the event of a default by the other party which has not been remedied within a specified period, in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party, or in the event of certain significant changes (including a change in the business conducted, organisational structural changes or a change of control).
The following highlights the primary services that are covered by the service level agreements:

Dubai Holding
Legal: arbitration and litigation services and corporate administration matters including management and oversight of external counsel appointed in connection with any such matters, as well as with regards to filing cases to authorities like the Rental Dispute Centre and Dubai police related to non-payment of dues from customers related to leasing agreements.
Data protection services: the development, update and implementation of policies and procedures relating to data protection, the development and management of group wide record of processing activity, registration with relevant regulatory bodies, assistance in dealing with supervisory authorities in relation to complaints or questions, and the management of data subjects rights process (in collaboration with the IT security team when dealing with any data incidents or breaches).
DHAM
Project Management: the management of project execution stages from initiation, precontracts and post-contracts through to delivery of infrastructure projects, building projects and master planning.
Procurement: the management of supplier relationships, sourcing, managing purchase orders and monthly stakeholder reports, supplier surveys, amongst other support.
Insurance: the management of insurance budgeting forecasts, vendor management and procuring new insurance policies and renewal of existing policies.
Corporate Administration: the collection, sorting and distribution of mail, documentation and messenger services.
Security: the management of security by way of incident investigations, complaints, violations, managing an emergency hotline and providing security clearances.
Finance: the management of the complete cycle of accounts payables from booking of supplier invoices, reconciliations, processing of operating expenses and capital expenditure payments, as well as the management of payroll.
Call Centre: the management and response to customer calls, emails and chats, including by escalating queries to respective departments and ensuring resolution.
Creative Studio: the management of brand guidelines and the development of creative marketing collaterals, emailers, social media templates, brand identity and logos.
Human Capital: the management of recruitment, the employee onboarding process, operational matters, rewards and performance management, employee relations, organisational design and talent development.

Parking Management: the monetisation of and management of parking assets, installation of parking management systems, the provision of 24/7 remote support, site monitoring, issuance of parking and enrolment.
IT Security and IT Infrastructure: the provision of support services, infrastructure, network, telecommunications, information security and service delivery. The agreement will be reviewed annually.
The services that are to be provided under the service level agreements generally represent services that were part of the Group's historical direct costs or expenses. We do not anticipate our direct costs or expenses or the Group's margin to be materially impacted as a result of the Group having these services provided through the service level agreements entered into with Dubai Holding or DHAM. However, since prior to the Restructuring these direct costs and expenses would have been considered to have been incurred by the Group, such direct costs and expenses are expected to be characterised as related party transactions in the Group's financial results from 2022.
We estimate that services to be performed by Dubai Holding or DHAM will be the equivalent of approximately 18% of our operating expenses minus depreciation and amortization, cost recovery and loss allowance on receivables.
We have not entered into and do not expect to enter into any service level agreements with Dubai Holding or DHAM where we are the service provider. However, DHAM will be a tenant of ours following the Restructuring and has lease agreements for certain of our properties which are on our standard form lease agreement and are subject to our standard terms and conditions. The rental revenue and services revenue from DHAM and its affiliates are expected to be reported as related party revenue in our financial statements in future periods.

In connection with the Restructuring and due to our ongoing transactional ties to the Dubai Holding Group through the various service level agreements and other related party transactions described herein, we have also entered into a contractual framework agreement with Dubai Holding (the "Contractual Framework Agreement"). We receive and expect we will continue to require and receive, certain services which are provided by third parties pursuant to the contracts which are entered into by a member of the Dubai Holding Group. For example, Dubai Holding will enter into contracts on our behalf and other members of the Dubai Holding Group which are expected to allow us and others in the Dubai Holding Group to benefit from economies of scale by purchasing certain supplies together. There will also be other third party contracts, such as insurance, that will be entered into at the Dubai Holding or at the DHAM level. The Contractual Framework Agreement governs the contractual payment terms and our liabilities for the charges payable for the services we receive under such third party contracts entered into between our Group and any member of the Dubai Holding Group. The Contractual Framework Agreement sets out the specific circumstances in which termination can occur.

Relationship Agreement
A relationship agreement has been entered into between DHAM and TECOM and will be effective from the date of Listing and until the earlier of, the date on which: (a) the ordinary shares of TECOM cease to be listed on the Dubai Financial Market; and (b) DHAM ceases to hold (directly or indirectly) at least 25% of the issued ordinary shares of TECOM.
The relationship agreement is designed to ensure that TECOM is capable at all times of carrying on its business independently of DHAM and requires that, amongst other matters, all matters between the parties are on an arm's length basis, in compliance with corporate governance rules and requires DHAM to comply with articles 34 to 40 of the Governance Rules.
The relationship agreement also contains three rights of first offer for TECOM over certain of DHAM's land and assets for a period of 10 (ten) years from the date of Listing (the Option Period) namely:
- land that is wholly owned by the DHAM Group at the time of Listing and/or from time to time until the end of the Option Period that is bare, available or subject to a land lease, designated exclusively by DHAM for commercial development or leasing in the same areas of commercial activities carried out by TECOM, and which immediately abuts land owned by TECOM at the time of Listing;
- any operating real property asset located in the Emirate of Dubai wholly owned by the DHAM Group at the time of Listing and/or from time to time thereafter until the end of the Option Period which is (a) designated for sale to a bona fide third party, (b) operating in the same areas of commercial activities carried out by TECOM, and (c) valued at AED 100,000,000 or more at the relevant time; and
- any land located in the Emirate of Dubai wholly owned by the DHAM Group at the time of Listing and/or from time to time thereafter until the end of the Option Period which is designated exclusively for use for the development of commercial built-to-lease real estate assets.
Retail assets, residential assets, and any land designated for residential or infrastructure development or for constructing schools or petrol stations are excluded from the scope of the above rights of first offer.
The relationship agreement further stipulates that any transaction or agreement between TECOM and a related party (defined to include DHAM and any entities directly or indirectly wholly owned by it (an Associated Company)) – except ones that are on arm's length, not extraordinary in nature and in the ordinary course of business of TECOM – will require the approval of the majority of the independent Non-Executive Directors on the Board.
If DHAM and TECOM do not conclude an agreement within the relevant period set out in the relationship agreement following a receipt of TECOM's offer, and DHAM subsequently wishes to conclude a sale of the property to a third party within six months of not accepting TECOM's offer, DHAM cannot conclude that sale on economic terms that are materially more beneficial to the third party than the terms of TECOM's offer. DHAM may also retain

and / or develop the relevant land or asset itself and / or lease it out to any one or more third parties as it deems fit.
DHAM is entitled to transfer any land or assets caught by the relationship agreement to an Associated Company without triggering the rights of first offer, provided that DHAM ensures that on and from the date of transfer, the relevant Associated Company is bound by the terms of the relationship agreement which apply to DHAM at the date of the transfer of the relevant land or assets to the Associated Company.
Pursuant to the relationship agreement, TECOM shall never be entitled to more than one right of first offer in respect of the same DHAM land or asset.
Material contracts (with non-related parties) include the following:
