This enables Frasers Property to mitigate risks and widen its horizon of growth opportunities. CHAROEN SIRIVADHANABHAKDI Chairman ” A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 3 3 CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT While 2020 dealt significant operational and business challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Frasers Property continued to make progress in building a resilient and sustainable business for the long term. As I look forward to the years ahead, I recognise the unprecedented uncertainty that we, along with many other organisations, face. However, I remain confident that Frasers Property is built on strong foundations. REINFORCING THE FOUNDATIONS Amid a crisis, it is necessary to address immediate priorities, but it is equally important to put in place strategies to secure Frasers Property’s long-term success. Frasers Property is in a good position because it has been on a journey of evolution since its listing in January 2014. During this time, Frasers Property has enhanced the resilience of its property portfolio by growing and diversifying to achieve the right balance of exposure across geographies and asset classes. This enables Frasers Property to mitigate risks and widen its horizon of growth opportunities. Having the right platforms will make it possible for Frasers Property to capture these opportunities and optimise value creation from its portfolio. I am pleased Frasers Property’s leadership team has continued to focus on consolidating its foundation through the strengthening of its diverse businesses and REITs platform. Over the course of FY20, with the formation of Frasers Property Industrial and the creation of Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust, through the merger of Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust and Frasers Commercial Trust, Frasers Property further enhanced its value proposition as an end- to-end business space solutions provider across multiple geographies. In addition, Frasers Property bolstered its Singapore suburban retail platform with the formation of Frasers Property Retail, its subsequent assumption of the role as manager of the AsiaRetail Fund portfolio, and the significant scaling up of Frasers Centrepoint Trust, following a series of transactions. In Thailand, Frasers Property’s country-focused business unit entered a new phase with the completion of Frasers Property Thailand’s merger with Golden Land Property Development Plc to become one of the top five property developers in the country. MAINTAINING STABILITY The challenging operating conditions will likely continue for many months as significant uncertainties persist in many parts of the world. Frasers Property executed on its capital management strategy and undertook several strategic capital partnership and capital recycling initiatives aimed at managing the balance sheet in FY20. The leadership team will continue to strengthen Frasers Property’s financial position to help manage the pandemic’s negative impact on earnings, which has fallen 66.0% to $188.1 million at the attributable profit level in FY20. In view of the pandemic’s impact on earnings and to conserve financial resources given the uncertainties ahead, the Board has proposed a dividend of 1.5 Singapore cents per share for FY20, compared to 6.0 cents per share for FY19. While the current business climate is tough, as history has shown, it is only a matter of time before the eventual recovery. Frasers Property’s leadership team will ensure its businesses remain robust through this crisis, so that it can build on this foundation and capture opportunities when the world emerges from this crisis. REFRAMING PRIORITIES The world that emerges from this crisis will unlikely be exactly the same as before. Rising from the crisis together with our customers, partners, employees and the larger community must be the priority, because without them, Frasers Property will lose our reason for being. I am proud of the initiatives Frasers Property has rolled out to support them through the most difficult times. I would also like to record my appreciation to board members of Frasers Property and its subsidiaries which are managers of REITs and stapled trust listed on the SGX-ST for stepping forward during the peak of the pandemic to take a voluntary 10.0% reduction in their directors’ fees from 1 May 2020. Contents 3 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT Winnersh Triangle, Reading • United Kingdom As Frasers Property’s leadership team considers the accelerated pace of change brought about by the pandemic, they will have to bear in mind that an organisation that is configured to be agile and able to respond dynamically to a constantly changing operating environment, will always be ready for new opportunities. This ability to comprehend and adapt to the volatile macro environment and shifting customer demands comes from being an integral part of the real estate ecosystem, along with our stakeholders. I am pleased Frasers Property’s leadership team has placed great emphasis this year on building innovation, technology and digitalisation capabilities and initiatives as part of efforts to generate customer-centric real estate solutions relevant for places of the future. Frasers Property will continue to dedicate resources to explore new ways real estate can add value to people’s lives. OUR PURPOSE This pandemic has reminded companies of the importance of being a ‘purpose-driven company’, of how companies exist to meet the needs of all stakeholders including their employees, their communities and society. Our success depends on our stakeholders, and they expect us not only to be profitable, but responsible too. Hence, if Frasers Property is to build a resilient, future-ready business for the long term, it needs to think about Frasers Property’s existence beyond just profitability, but in terms of the triple bottom line: profit, people, planet. Delivering sustainable impact – for the planet, people and communities – has never been more important. We want to continue to make progress. Hence, we have put sustainability at the core of our business with our purpose of ‘inspiring experiences, creating places for good’. This allows us to create lasting shared value, for our people, the businesses and communities we serve, within the ecosystem in which we will live for generations. In many respects, Frasers Property had started its path towards becoming a purpose-driven company much earlier, when we focused on creating memorable, enriching experiences that matter to our customers, reinforced by the company’s core values and strong legacy. The strength that comes from Frasers Property’s sense of purpose, our people, and the way they live and breathe the company’s values – of being collaborative, respectful, progressive and real – provides the foundation from which we can face the future. While the short term may prove difficult and require us to respond as we never imagined before, that foundation gives me confidence for the longer term. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 3 5 11 Gibbon Road, Winston Hills, New South Wales • Australia Waterway Point • Singapore CONTINUED EMPHASIS ON SUSTAINABILITY ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Board pays a high degree of attention to corporate governance and sustainable practices as these are central tenets for a business that aims to deliver value over the long term. Frasers Property’s progress on this front is reported in this year’s Sustainability Report. This year’s Sustainability Report was prepared in accordance with international standards, as it has in the past, and is an important part of demonstrating the Frasers Property’s commitment and efforts to positively impact the environment and society. Over the course of the year, Frasers Property received accolades for its commitment towards building a sustainable business. I am particularly encouraged to see nearly all of our businesses participate in the 2020 Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) assessment for the first time this year. This will establish a benchmark for Frasers Property as we continue to make efforts to improve our performance over time. Meanwhile, Frasers Property’s business in Australia and Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust continued to achieve several strong global rankings in the GRESB assessment, which demonstrate that high performance in GRESB does not compromise, and in fact, can enhance both economic performance and the business. Frasers Property will not be where it is today without the support of its many stakeholders. To Frasers Property’s leadership team and employees, I would like to express my utmost appreciation for your dedication and hard work, especially in overcoming a very tough year both at work and on a personal level. To my esteemed colleagues on the Board, thank you for the wise counsel and valuable guidance. Finally, I extend my sincere gratitude, to all customers, business partners, bankers, financial advisers and shareholders, for their unwavering support of Frasers Property. On behalf of Frasers Property’s Board, I thank the boards of Frasers Property Thailand, Frasers Centrepoint Trust, Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust, Frasers Hospitality Trust, Frasers Property Thailand Industrial Freehold & Leasehold REIT and Golden Ventures Leasehold REIT, for their stewardship of Frasers Property’s listed entities. Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi Chairman Contents “ Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, a backdrop of geopolitical headwinds and challenging global economic conditions over the last 12 months, Frasers Property made tremendous progress in our evolution into a resilient business for the long term. PANOTE SIRIVADHANABHAKDI Group Chief Executive Officer ” A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 3 7 IN CONVERSATION WITH THE GROUP CEO In FY20, we made significant strides to build a business model designed to endure for the long term. In my message below, I highlight several factors that drove our results and the strategies we have put in place to secure our long-term success, including: 1. Continuing our evolution amid changes brought upon by external factors, while navigating the COVID-19 pandemic 2. Building resilient and sustainable business platforms and strengthening our structure 3. Scaling up our REITs platforms 4. Maintaining our active capital management discipline 5. Driving our organisational culture and developing our purpose QUndoubtedly, 2020 has been a challenging year for most businesses. What does this year’s annual report theme, ‘agility and tenacity’, mean to you in these difficult times? AHaving platforms with the right focus, relevant scale, and local expertise are critical success factors for real estate. This will give us a sustained competitive advantage, while placing us in a stronger position to deliver long-term shareholder value. Hence, we have been on a steady path to evolve Frasers Property since our listing in January 2014. The word ‘evolve’ is important here, especially in a COVID-19 world. Against a backdrop of challenging global economic and geopolitical conditions, we recognise change and uncertainty will be a constant. We want to thrive and we can only do so by successfully evolving and reinventing ourselves. Over the past seven years, we have invested in three key areas to enhance our organisational agility and tenacity. PEOPLE – We further built upon our organisational culture and structure. We believe strong leadership and a shared positive culture amongst all employees are the bedrock of an agile and adaptive organisation. We have stronger leadership and good people in place for each of our businesses and markets. Not only are we making progressive efforts to embrace a collaborative and inclusive work culture, we are continuing to enhance the quality and robustness of systems and processes across Frasers Property. INVESTMENTS – We took steps to enhance our portfolio resilience amid elevated volatility across economies and industries. Following a series of strategic initiatives, around 80% of our property portfolio today generate recurring income. We have been increasing our investment properties exposure in sectors supported by steady fundamentals, such as industrial and logistics, as well as retail. CUSTOMER-CENTRICITY — At Frasers Property, we choose to focus on experience, and that means choosing to focus on the customer. Our customers’ experience is the sum of all our customers’ interaction with us, through the properties we own and manage, the services we provide, the solutions we offer and their interaction with our employees. We are focusing on building innovation as a core capability, which is in tune with the human-centric design-thinking instinct we are infusing into our culture. These will allow us to generate not only solutions desired by our customers but also out-of-the-box real estate- related solutions relevant for the future. The pandemic has accelerated the need for society to innovate. In a real estate context, this means Frasers Property will need to adopt and potentially invest in technology solutions that can complement our businesses and extend new strategic capabilities. We will not only innovate within Frasers Property but also outside-in by collaborating with an ecosystem of like- minded partners. How we continue to build the foundation to enable Frasers Property to evolve and reinvent itself in the post- COVID-19 world is a key priority. We must have the agility to navigate a VUCA1 operating environment, yet have the tenacity to maintain a stable course. 1 Volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous Contents 3 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D IN CONVERSATION WITH THE GROUP CEO QThe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on everyday life in many parts of the world has posed significant operational challenges to the real estate sector. How did Frasers Property manage through these challenges? AThe pandemic has radically changed the way we go about our daily lives and the way we work. I am proud of how our people have responded to the rapidly evolving situation. Within a short span of time, we were able to develop and roll out several initiatives to meet the needs of our customers and our communities. Across our properties, our teams have been busy executing detailed plans and procedures to ensure the safety of our tenants, customers, guests and occupants as they return to our properties. These initiatives are in line with our ongoing commitment to protect the overall well-being and safety of the communities that use our properties around the world, At the business level, we have been focused on supporting our tenants through this challenging period, particularly in the area of cashflow. The assistance we have rendered has varied across markets and we have partnered with local authorities to provide solutions tailored to our tenants’ needs. In markets where local authorities have announced COVID-19 related government subsidies and rebates for property owners, we have fully passed on the government assistance to our tenants on top of our support packages. While our malls have seen a recovery of tenants’ sales to near pre-COVID-19 levels, some shoppers remain concerned about safety and hygiene at public spaces and have shifted towards online shopping. With that in mind, we have enhanced our digital services and offerings to meet the heightened demand for efficient delivery services and convenient e-commerce options. We will continue to help tenants by having digital storefronts and enabling a seamless store-to-door shopping experience. By providing tenants with an omnichannel platform that addresses shoppers’ preferences, we aim to strengthen the retail experience and sustain traffic at our malls by encouraging shoppers to try or collect products at the physical stores. Of course, nothing matters more than the health, well- being and safety of the communities we operate in during these difficult times. At Frasers Property, we have been supporting the communities and have provided ongoing relief as best as we can. Our initiatives range from sponsoring personal protective equipment, organising Waterway Point • Singapore blood donation and food drives, to contributing donations to help migrant workers, medical personnel and vulnerable groups. Many of these initiatives were in collaboration with non-profit organisations, while others were company- or staff-led initiatives. After months of lockdown, while many cities are planning for easing restrictions and reopening, others are imposing restrictions again, albeit in a more calibrated manner, as they grapple with the resurgence of subsequent waves of COVID-19 infections. Getting back to normal will take some time. While we adapt Frasers Property in tune with evolving consumer behaviours, this pandemic has shown us that humans are social creatures, and real estate plays an important role in how they live. We must evolve real estate to meet human needs even as we build resilience to ride through this uncertainty. QWhile the ripple effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and businesses continue to be felt, what has Frasers Property done during FY20 to ensure its businesses are prepared when recovery eventually happens? A Through this pandemic, we have seen the importance of having strong leaders and good people on the ground who have the local market understanding and quick thinking to nimbly navigate challenges and capture opportunities with agility. Other than managing through the operational challenges posed by the pandemic, a top priority for the leadership team has been to ensure our businesses are in a position to capture opportunities when recovery eventually happens. Waterway Point • Singapore A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 3 9 Lakeshore, Bedfont Lakes Business Park, Heathrow • United Kingdom We have been working hard across our businesses to optimise returns from our large base of investment properties. Overall, our investment properties have been resilient due to the diversified exposure across asset classes, geographies and customers, and the high level of occupancies and long weighted average lease expiries. Despite challenging conditions during the year, we continued to focus on driving income through our operating capabilities while maintaining stable occupancy rates. Early in the year, we increased the Frasers Property’s exposure to the UK business parks sector with the defensive acquisition of Lakeshore Business Park, which is currently fully tenanted to blue-chip company Cisco Systems. We acquired our UK business parks portfolio post the Brexit vote, and the portfolio has maintained stable performance despite an extended period of Brexit uncertainties in the UK. We grew our industrial portfolio as well, acquiring two pre-leased industrial assets in Germany and adding around 740,000 sqm of landbank across Europe and Australia.

Although it will be some time before global travel resumes, our long-stay corporate guest segment has helped provide some stability to the portfolio. In addition to the concerted efforts to ensure health and safety measures are in place at all properties and to actively roll out cost management measures, we sought alternative revenue streams where possible. For example, a few of our properties in Australia and Singapore provided accommodation for individuals serving quarantine. Another priority is to capture domestic tourism opportunities following a gradual easing of COVID- 19-related restrictions. We have opened four new properties in Chengdu, Shanghai, Leipzig and Tokyo to capture domestic tourism opportunities, while cautiously calibrating the re-opening of our properties in the UK and Europe to account for prevailing COVID-19 related measures imposed by governments. In addition, preparations are underway for the upcoming openings of four more properties in Guangzhou, Nanjing, Hanoi and Kuala Lumpur. On the development front, we continued to maintain an active residential development portfolio in Singapore, Australia, China, Thailand and Vietnam. During the year, we were able to settle around 6,000 residential units across our markets despite heightened settlement risks, particularly in Australia. While we have been carefully calibrating new project launches to take into account the weaker market sentiment, we continue to see interest and demand for our residential projects. In China, we launched Opus One, a residential project in Xuhui, Shanghai, amid the pandemic in April 2020, and we have sold all 359 units launched for sale. Ten projects in Thailand were similarly sold-out this year as buyer sentiment rebounded after the lows in March and April. In Vietnam, amid strong market sentiments, all landed residential stock and retail shop lots of Q2 Thao Dien were fully sold within the day of the launch. In Australia, despite the COVID-19-related lockdowns, we achieved sales of 1,651 units, close to our 10-year historic average annual sales of around 2,000 units. Government stimulus schemes, such as the Home Builder grant for eligible buyers in 2020, provided a boost to residential sales, particularly on land sub-division projects in Victoria. As at 30 September 2020, Frasers Property’s total unrecognised residential revenue stood at $1.4 billion. Capri by Fraser, Leipzig • Germany ” “ Our geographical diversification helps us to create a balanced portfolio to mitigate concentration risk and is resilient in the face of market uncertainties. We also acquired new residential land sites in Singapore and Australia, but by cautiously focusing on market segments with deeper resilient demand. In Singapore, we successfully bid for an executive condominium site at Fernvale Lane, a 496-unit residential project in the suburbs catering to a more affordable mid-market segment of first-time home buyers and upgraders. In line with our focus on sustainability, this development is financed with Singapore’s first green loan for an executive condominium. In addition, we acquired Bedok Point from Frasers Centrepoint Trust, which we can potentially redevelop into a residential project with ground-floor retail. Bedok Point will continue to generate recurring income until such a point in time when we decide to, and receive relevant regulatory approvals to, redevelop the site. In Australia, we acquired a medium-density housing site in Keperra, Queensland, which can yield 473 units. Just in October 2020, we won a bid to join the Queensland government’s Build-to-Rent Pilot Project. Under this project, we will develop 354 apartments that we will own and operate as rental units. The Queensland government will subsidise 40% of these apartments with a subsidy at 25% of market rents. During the year, we also delivered three neighbourhood retail assets in Australia, of which one has been sold to a third party. Burwood Brickworks and Eastern Creek Quarter Stage 1 will be retained on balance sheet pending performance stabilisation. Tiong Bahru Plaza • Singapore Artist’s impression of Opus One, Shanghai • China We have been maintaining a prudent approach towards our development business, dynamically managing the exposure to new developments, inventory levels and landbank in tune with market conditions. In addition, our geographical diversification helps us to create a balanced portfolio to mitigate concentration risk and is resilient in the face of market uncertainties. We will continue to leverage the experience and expertise we have on the ground across our geographies to nimbly manage our development exposure. QThere were several corporate developments this year, particularly in your retail, industrial and Thailand businesses. These developments are consistent with the evolution of Frasers Property in the past few years. Can you share more about the thinking behind these developments? A I shared about the groundwork we have laid these past seven years to evolve Frasers Property. Looking at the corporate developments over this period, if I were to characterise the stages of our work, I would say the focus for the first four years was on expansion and diversification. As for these past three years, we have been on a journey to consolidate our businesses while unlocking the synergy within Frasers Property through the creation of focused and scalable business platforms. Contents 4 2 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D SINGAPORE RETAIL: We have built a substantial portfolio of suburban malls that are well located above or next to transportation nodes around Singapore and benefit from having a high proportion of tenants who provide essential services valued by consumers, factors which contribute to portfolio resilience. We are dedicating resources to be more responsive and agile in the fast- evolving retail landscape and to strengthen our retail footprint in Singapore. Led by Low Chee Wah, the formation of Frasers Property Retail in October 2019 could not have been more timely. A strong leadership team and dedicated resources were critical for the Singapore retail business as retail was one of sectors hardest hit by the pandemic. Although Singapore retail may continue to experience the lingering effects of the pandemic for some months to come, we believe the fundamentals of Singapore suburban retail remain intact. The gradual re-opening of the economy in mid-June has been encouraging for many of our tenants, who have resumed trading and are seeing sales return to levels comparable to the same period last year. With safe management measures in place, footfall at our suburban retail malls is returning. The recovery in tenants’ sales has outpaced the recovery in footfall and attests to the resilience of suburban malls in its focus on non-discretionary spending. We continued to grow Frasers Property Retail over the course of the year. We deepened our capabilities and expanded our retail loyalty membership base through the acquisition and full integration of AsiaMalls Management, the property manager of the AsiaRetail Fund portfolio. In July 2020, the Group became the full owner of AsiaRetail Fund following Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s acquisition of the remaining approximately 12.1% stake that we did not already own, and Frasers Property subsequently took over the management of the AsiaRetail Fund portfolio. INDUSTRIAL & LOGISTICS: We entered this sector in 2014 through the acquisition of our Australia business unit. Since then, we have scaled up our investment in this sector significantly through a series of strategic acquisitions. Many of our industrial and logistics customers are global, and a multi-national industrial- focused business unit was a logical next step for us to manage our exposure outside Thailand holistically to better build upon natural synergies. In October 2019, we saw the creation of Frasers Property Industrial through the consolidation of our industrial and logistics businesses in Australia and Europe and the REIT management of Frasers Logistics & Commercial Vantage Yatala, Queensland • Australia Trust under a single strategic business unit led by Reini Otter. Industrial and logistics, with strong structural fundamentals and longer weighted average lease expiries, is a sector that continues to be stable amid the pandemic. In fact, strong tenant resilience was exhibited with minimal rental support required. During the year, the Frasers Property Industrial team realised strong leasing activity totalling more than 710,000 sqm of renewals and new leases and completed nine new assets with total gross lettable area of over 220,000 sqm. THAILAND: We first entered the Thailand market in a meaningful way through the acquisition of an approximate 40.0% stake in Golden Land Property Development Plc and from that first entry, we expanded into the industrial and logistics segment via the acquisition of a stake in TICON Industrial Connection Plc, which was subsequently renamed as Frasers Property Thailand. We recognised a country-focused business unit will give us a broader and deeper set of expertise to better unlock the value of our landbank and property holdings in Thailand. Together with a larger network across the country, we can also offer our customers an enhanced value proposition. The series of strategic initiatives we undertook over the past three years to build our business in Thailand culminated with the successful merger of Golden Land with Frasers Property Thailand in September 2020, following Golden Land’s delisting from the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The combination of Frasers Property Thailand and Golden Land created a leading fully integrated real estate business that is among the top five property developers in Thailand by asset size. Its scaled, balanced and diversified portfolio spanning the residential, industrial and logistics, commercial, retail and hospitality sectors has helped cushion the economic impact of the pandemic. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 4 3 Golden Town, Chiang Mai • Thailand In August 2020, Frasers Property Thailand’s Board of Directors appointed Thanapol Sirithanachai as Country Chief Executive Officer. As an immediate priority following his appointment, Thanapol Sirithanachai has developed a new integrated structure to enable Frasers Property Thailand to better drive business synergies and capture opportunities from having an integrated business. This is in addition to the ongoing focus to leverage Frasers Property’s collective experience for growth. In particular, tapping on Frasers Property Industrial’s existing strong industrial sector connections in Europe and Australia can better position Frasers Property Thailand to benefit from the rising demand for industrial properties in Thailand, due to supply chain reconfigurations amid the US-China trade war and COVID-19 related disruptions. Through this pandemic, we have seen the importance of having resilient business platforms and this will remain a priority. QIn addition to strengthening of Frasers Property’s business platforms, you scaled up your REITs platform in FY20. What is the significance of this for Frasers Property? “ Through this pandemic, we have seen the importance of having resilient business platforms and this will remain a priority. ” The completion of the merger of Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust and Frasers Commercial Trust in April 2020 created Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust, the seventh largest S-REIT in Singapore with a market capitalisation of $4.7 billion1 and the owner of a $6.2 billion portfolio of 100 high-quality properties. Through this landmark merger, Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust achieved greater diversification, broadening its investment mandate from logistics and industrial to include office and business parks, and now operates in five developed countries, namely Australia, Germany, Singapore, the UK and the Netherlands. The merger has broadened Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust’s investment mandate and provided opportunities for both growth and value creation across these sectors. A Our REITs platform is of strategic importance to Frasers Property as it has an integral role in our capital management strategy. In FY20, our REITs undertook two transformative transactions: the merger of Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust and Frasers Commercial Trust, as well as Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s acquisition of all the remaining shares in AsiaRetail Fund from Frasers Property. Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s ownership in the entire AsiaRetail Fund portfolio now makes it one of the largest suburban retail mall landlords in Singapore with a portfolio size of approximately $6.7 billion. Its portfolio increased from seven to 11 suburban malls, and its net lettable area expanded by about 64.0% to over 210,000 sqm. Furthermore, with full control of the AsiaRetail Fund assets, Frasers Centrepoint Trust can hold the assets via an efficient, tax transparent structure. 1 As at 30 September 2020 Contents 4 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D IN CONVERSATION WITH THE GROUP CEO Around S$7.7 billion of assets have been recycled through the Group’s REITs since FY14 (Assets in $’m) 2,359 1,700 1,003 1,185 808 447 240 FY14 FY15 FY16 FY17 FY18 FY19 FY20 These transactions catapulted Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust and Frasers Centrepoint Trust into the league of the top 10 largest S-REITs by market capitalisation1 and increased their relative weightage in benchmark indices such as the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Developed Index. A high index weighting can translate to higher trading liquidity, a wider investor base and broader analyst coverage, which could lead to a positive re-rating of the REITs. While the REITs leverage the support of Frasers Property to grow, Frasers Property grows its assets under management and fee income as well. This virtuous cycle of growth and value creation for the entire Frasers Property has strongly featured every year since we were listed in January 2014. Around $7.7 billion of assets have been recycled through our REITs since then. In FY20, we recycled approximately $2.4 billion of assets through our REITs. This included a total of $301.0 million of Frasers Property’s assets recycled into Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust, comprising an industrial and logistics property, the remaining 50.0% interest in Farnborough Business Park and the entire interest in Maxis Business Park. In September 2020, Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s unitholders approved the acquisition of our stake in AsiaRetail Fund. Frasers Property’s 63.1% share of AsiaRetail Fund’s asset value was around $1.9 billion. This acquisition was completed in October 2020. In Thailand, Frasers Property Thailand Industrial Freehold & Leasehold REIT acquired $124.0 million worth of factories and warehouses from Frasers Property Thailand, part of the agreed $259.0 million worth of asset acquisitions that will complete by February 2021. QOther than business impact, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the financial performance of the real estate sector in general. Can you comment on Frasers Property’s earnings in FY20? AWe have done a lot of work around building the foundation of a business that aims to deliver value over the long term and through business cycles. As a result of this groundwork, there were bright spots in certain segments, particularly industrial and logistics, Thailand and China. Positive contributions from these segments helped to partially offset the adverse impact of the pandemic on our earnings this year. Our hospitality business, which is severely affected by widespread international travel restrictions, the decline in occupancies and temporary closures of our hospitality properties, has unsurprisingly been hardest hit. It registered significantly lower contributions and accounted for the bulk of the impairments and fair value losses we recorded in FY20. The extension of tenant support across Frasers Property has also affected our bottom line. Consequently, we recorded profit before interest and taxation of $1.2 billion and attributable profit of $188.1 million in FY20, a decrease of 3.6% and 66.4% respectively from FY19. To better weather the pandemic crisis, we prioritised capital and liquidity management, and these continue to be our top priorities. Cash flow management, collections and projections have been, and will remain, key focus areas for the immediate future. Across Frasers Property, we have been reducing operational costs where it makes business sense to do so and deferring uncommitted capital expenditure. Until COVID-19 ceases to be a pandemic, the operating environment for Frasers Property’s various businesses will remain challenging and significant uncertainties will persist. 1 Based on Bloomberg data as at 30 September 2020 as well as Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust’s and Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s internal data, and assuming the merger of CapitaLand Mall Trust and CapitaLand Commercial Trust has been completed and their respective market capitalisation and free float figures are aggregated QThe prevailing challenging operating environment and resultant financial impact caused by the COVID-19 pandemic for most companies have thrown the spotlight on capital management. How does Frasers Property’s balance sheet stand? AWe have, and will continue to, maintain a prudent capital management policy, while actively managing our capital structure to sustain our business operations and optimise shareholder value. As at 30 September 2020, Frasers Property has sufficient liquidity to meet our operations and financial commitments with cash and bank deposits of approximately $3.3 billion as well as adequate unutilised banking facilities. In addition, Frasers Property’s pre-sold revenue and recurring income provide a level of visibility of future cash flows. In FY20, Frasers Property’s net gearing increased. This was mainly due to the redemption of $700.0 million of perpetual securities in March 2020. This series of perpetual securities was paying a relatively higher coupon of 5.0% per annum interest, and redeeming it meant immediate savings for us. In addition, borrowings also increased as we chose to fully fund the acquisition of the Lakeshore Business Park in the UK using pound- denominated debt so as to achieve a natural currency hedge. To manage our gearing downwards, Frasers Property has been taking proactive actions to manage our capital. On top of recycling capital through our REITs, we have stepped up our capital partnership initiatives with third-party investors and joint venture partners. In July 2020, we brought in TCC Prosperity1 as a long-term capital partner for Northpoint City (South Wing). The net proceeds of approximately $174.0 million was used to deleverage our balance sheet. This is a continuation of our capital partnership initiatives. Last year, we brought in another capital partner for Frasers Tower in Singapore, with the equity injection raising about $440.0 million for Frasers Property. As at 30 September 2020, net debt over total equity, or net gearing, stood at 105.0% and net interest cover of three times. If the acquisition of our AsiaRetail Fund stake by Frasers Centrepoint Trust was completed by 30 September 2020, our net gearing would have been lower at 95.7%. 1 TCC Prosperity through its wholly-owned subsidiary Bright Bloom Capital A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 4 5 Visitor management system with face recognition at The PARQ, Bangkok • Thailand Given that around 80.0% of our property assets generate recurring income, we also take into consideration the Group’s net debt over property assets which stood at a healthy 48.1%. Having said that, we will continue to work hard to actively manage our net gearing though the disciplined execution of our capital management strategy. QHow does Frasers Property view technology and digitalisation in relation to how it innovates to better respond to the disruptions it is seeing in its environment? APrior to the pandemic, Frasers Property had already identified technology and digitalisation as a core capability that will enhance our ability to respond with agility. Last year, we appointed our Group Chief Digital Officer, Samuel Tan, to help focus our resources and drive our efforts in our digital transformation journey. This was most timely as the pandemic has brought to the fore the importance of digitalisation, both in terms of what products and services mean to customers and communities, as well as what infrastructure and capabilities like our company should be equipped with. The pandemic has accelerated the pace of demand shifts in terms of customer requirements and behavioural changes. We are seeing a convergence of sectors, which makes our mixed-use and placemaking capabilities even more valuable. Retail and industrial are converging in some ways by virtue of e-commerce. Residential, commercial and retail are converging because working from home has become a ‘new normal’ and the future of work has rapidly evolved. Many of these forms of real estate sector convergence existed before COVID-19 but have since gathered speed. Contents 4 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D As sectors converge and customers’ expectations evolve, we must continue to adopt a human-centric design thinking ethos to innovate and further enable Frasers Property and our people to add value through real estate spaces and services, be it through strengthening revenue, enhancing efficiency for customers and the business, or heightening real estate users’ experiences. While innovation can be broad in its approach, a digital mindset is imperative given the digitally savvy world we live in today. With that in mind, we have launched a number of initiatives with the aim of creating an ecosystem that aggregates property technologies, or Proptech. The Proptech initiatives we have rolled out are a result of our focus on the digital customer experience and how we can innovate with our customers to provide better experience and services. Layered on that is the leveraging of data-driven insights to constantly refine our offerings. We are also actively exploring outside-in innovation, which means keeping pulse with global innovation, new technology and new business models, and constantly challenging ourselves to adapt and adopt new ideas. In the commercial space, the Proptech initiatives we have rolled out are focused on two fronts. Firstly, we are working towards Frasers Property’s vision where building systems and workflows can be seamlessly connected on a single platform to enable better efficiency and workplace experiences. To this end, we implemented a centralised intelligent building management system at Frasers Tower in September 2020. Secondly, we have been working on creating a better future-of-work experience. Through our close partnerships with Proptech companies, we have gained a better understanding of the technology involved in shared workspaces and community management and insights into how these can be applied to our properties. In November 2020, JustCo launched Switch, the world’s first work-from-anywhere solution at Causeway Point, The Centrepoint, Century Square, Changi City Point, Northpoint City, Waterway Point and Yew Tee Point. Future roll-out will include our other suburban malls in Singapore. This gives an additional working space dimension to our retail malls, which goes back to my earlier point on the convergence of real estate sectors. In the retail space, we have similarly been working on innovations that connect technology, design and business strategy to enhance the customer experience. A recent significant enhancement to our Frasers Centralised intelligent building platform at Frasers Tower • Singapore Experience app, or FRx, is Frasers Makan Master, which allows customers to place delivery orders from multiple food and beverage tenants within the same mall in Singapore, and we will be launching the Frasers eStore on FRx to provide a seamless omnichannel, store-to-door retail experience for our tenants and shoppers. Another innovation we introduced through our partner is a retail concept, Ratio, which opened its first Singapore flagship robotic beverage cafe and lounge at The Centrepoint in November 2020. Powered by robotics and artificial intelligence, this allows food and beverage operators to offer custom-crafted coffee and cocktails. From a real estate perspective, it opens up the opportunity to optimise spaces with a small footprint to enable the curation of new experiences for customers in hospitality, retail and commercial properties. In addition to these initiatives, we have been introducing multi-purpose service robotics to enhance operational efficiency, such as the use of UV-disinfecting autonomous mobile robots at our malls in Singapore and commercial properties in Thailand. The many digitalisation initiatives we kick-started before the pandemic have put us in good stead during this period. Moving forward, we believe we can play a key role in the creation of a Proptech ecosystem. We will be looking to adopt and invest in technology solutions that not only address industry disruption, but can complement the business and extend new strategic capabilities. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 4 7 JustCo’s co-working space at The Centrepoint • Singapore Image Credit: JustCo QAs you reflect on FY20 and consider the trends you are seeing in the real estate sector, what is your key priority as you look ahead to FY21 and beyond? AThe pandemic has created greater awareness of the importance of resilience for countries and companies, and that will have implications on the expectations of our built environment and the role of the space we occupy. If you think about the impact of real estate on people’s lives, the amount of resource it takes up and how every building can last for generations, there is a real difference we can make in helping to improve the overall quality of life through the quality of the places we build and the quality of experience they generate. This crisis has reminded many companies, like ours, of the important essence of being a purpose-driven company. It has become increasingly clear that Frasers Property must not only deliver financial performance, but we also need to understand our role in society and show how we make a positive contribution. A sense of purpose can help us better achieve our full potential. To this end, we have developed our purpose: ‘Inspiring experiences, creating places for good’. We believe not only in ‘inspiring experiences’ and making the quality of every experience better, which is already aligned with our unifying idea of ‘experience matters’. We also believe in the added dimension of ‘creating places for good’. Mastering the life cycle value of real estate is already a fundamental aspect of our strategy. Understanding how we plug into the circular economy will be that important connection between our strategy and our sustainability aspirations. Therefore, we seek to honour our past and build for the future. We are putting sustainability at the core of our business, and by making it an integral part of our purpose, it allows us to create lasting shared value, for our people, the businesses and communities we serve, within the ecosystem in which we will live for generations. While pursuing our business goals, we aim to minimise any negative environmental and social impacts by acting progressively, producing and consuming responsibly, and focusing on people. Being a purposeful business is an important part of being for Frasers Property. We aim to be an enduring and progressive company, where we seek to incorporate sustainability into every stage of our value chain, from business strategies to operations. As I had mentioned at the start, how we continue to evolve Frasers Property in the post-COVID-19 world is a key priority now. When we are focused on being clear of our purpose, we can thrive in this uncertain world and embrace the unprecedented changes that confront us. To ensure we emerge stronger after the pandemic, we need to strengthen and keep reinventing ourselves to remain relevant. We need to constantly question our place in the future to set the right priorities, with our purpose as our true north. We must maintain our business and financial discipline in ensuring that everything we do is at least as much about building a long-term business, as it is about meeting immediate priorities. This is how we can continue to build a sustainable and resilient Frasers Property for the long term. Contents 4 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D TRENDS VIEW Operating in an era of uncertainty The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed pre-existing fragilities in our world and accelerated many trends that are already in place. Consumer and corporate behaviours are shifting, resulting in changes in a fast-changing operating environment that will continue. Macroeconomic, social and geopolitical concerns are increasing the uncertainty. On the other hand, these changes also create new opportunities. As a multi-national real estate company developing, owning and operating across geographies and property sectors, understanding the trends and forces that are shaping the markets we are operating in and our industry, matters. By being focused on fundamentals, we can proactively ensure that our portfolio and investments are resilient and sustainable for the long term notwithstanding an environment of uncertainty. We must be agile and responsive to these trends to capitalise on opportunities and sustain a future-ready business. Outlined below are some of the key trends affecting our industry. URBANISATION AND SHIFTING DEMOGRAPHICS OUR RESPONSE: Demographic changes have far-reaching impact on the customers we will serve in the future. Children below age five are outnumbered by people aged 65 or above, setting the stage for rapidly aging populations in the next two decades1. Millennials and older cohorts of Generation Z, with different attitudes to work, lifestyles and home ownership, currently account for almost a third of the global population and will continue to grow. Consumer profiles are becoming more diverse, with more people getting married later and choosing not to have children. Women are also increasingly driving purchasing decision as they gain economic clout. Despite shifting demographics, urbanisation is expected to continue, as cities with robust economic prospects and a variety of quality living environments remain attractive. Frasers Property is focused on understanding the needs of our evolving customer segments and creating places of the future that are inclusive, where everyone belongs and thrives. For example, we are looking at how to design homes that are more senior-friendly, while creating more vibrant residential communities that help boost the health and well-being of communities. The design and management of office spaces will also need to evolve to meet the expectations of millennials and younger generations as they come to represent the largest segment of the workforce. In addition, Frasers Property is assessing opportunities in the build-to-rent segment to address demand from population segments where there is greater preference for renting over buying, whether it is due to affordability constraints or a mindset shift in preference from home ownership towards renting. We are well positioned for this in markets with the right conditions and where we have the development and operating capabilities. With that in mind, we won the bid to build a 354- apartment build-to-rent project in Brisbane, Australia in October 2020. At the workplace, the five-generation workforce is an emerging reality. To better manage an age-diverse workforce, this means rethinking learning and development over time, and tapping on the strengths of each generation. All of these will be key to retaining and attracting a diverse group of talent at Frasers Property. GREATER ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY OUR RESPONSE: COVID-19 has pushed many economies into sharp contractions in 2020. Consequently, consumers and corporates have become more value oriented and place greater emphasis on affordability and optionality as they enhance their financial resilience. A Design Thinking workshop in action 1 United Nations Population Division Database In this environment, it is essential Frasers Property puts greater emphasis on understanding our customers including how their situations, behaviours and requirements have changed. We have been consciously developing a customer-centric Design Thinking mindset to help us solve and meet unmet customer needs, while shifting the company culture to be agile, adept at problem-solving and committed to continuous improvement. This, in turn, will sharpen our value proposition and be truly customer centric. To provide customers with more flexibility and better solutions, we are enhancing ‘Real Estate as a Service’ (REaaS) capabilities to complement our physical space offerings. For example, in the office space, we are increasing the amount of flexible space with ancillary services and deepening the partnership with co-working operators such as JustCo. Frasers Property is also focused on ensuring its portfolio and investments can ride through uncertainty and disruptions. This will include focusing on resilient asset class segments, cities, locations and customer segments. On the tenancy front, understanding the outlook for each tenant sector, systematically monitoring tenant covenants, and actively managing our tenant mix, are key to optimising the quality of cashflows. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 4 9 CONVERGENCE ACROSS REAL ESTATE CLASSES OUR RESPONSE: Real estate asset classes are converging as disruption emerges across multiple industries and boundaries between work and our personal lives become blurred. In response, developers and owners are increasingly looking at ways to design buildings with structures that can accommodate flexible and multiple uses. Owners are evaluating the business case for converting existing buildings with mixed or alternative use, especially for assets facing obsolescence or demand shifts. Urban planners are also stepping up their pace in exploring decentralised neighbourhoods with a wider plethora of functions. Leveraging our multiple asset class and placemaking expertise, Frasers Property is actively pursuing an approach that incorporates mixed-use components. This will allow for flexible, multiple uses being demanded by our customers. Concurrently, multi-use typologies will become central to optimising value creation. In our malls, we are adding new features such as co-working space, last-mile fulfilment and more community amenities. On the other hand, we see synergy between co-locating industrial and office spaces as corporates seek to fulfil their office and supply chain needs. Going beyond individual buildings, Frasers Property has been building and will continue to create vibrant communities in mixed-use projects in our core markets of Singapore, Australia and Thailand. ACCELERATION OF DIGITALISATION & TECHNOLOGY OUR RESPONSE: The real estate industry is undergoing accelerated change as digitalisation takes further root during the current pandemic. The continued rapid growth in e-commerce is boosting the demand for logistics assets, while requiring mall owners and operators to develop omnichannel strategies to adapt. The real estate industry needs to evolve to meet the expectations of digitally empowered customers and be conscious of how it will adapt in the context of cities and buildings getting smarter and as technology transforms transportation. There is also a concurrent opportunity for businesses to drive better efficiencies and productivity. The PARQ in Bangkok • Thailand. Tenants can monitor indoor air quality and control SMART lighting systems through a mobile app. Today, our digitalisation and technology focus is centred on the following areas, to drive data-driven insights to strengthen revenue, enhance efficiency and heighten customer experiences. 1. Our customers’ experiences Many of our businesses are creating new digital services, to enable customer self-service and straight-through processing – all of which contributes towards increasing our customer engagement. The pandemic has also accelerated the opportunity to reimagine our spaces and transform the way the community uses our properties. Ultimately, Frasers Property’s digital solutions will be guided by our focus on human customer needs and experiences. 2. Creating places for good We adopt data-driven technologies to ensure the resilience and future- readiness of our properties for the long-term, while considering the health, well-being and connectedness of people and communities. We are making our buildings smarter, by connecting them with sensors and building technology, to monitor building performance and strive towards unmanned operations. In addition, we are exploring data-driven technologies that can be adopted to incorporate sustainability practices throughout the property lifecycle – from design to development and operation – emphasising carbon reduction, energy efficiency and sustainable technology. 3. Future of Work We are simplifying and driving greater efficiencies with common processes and systems across our businesses. This will enable us to better leverage the value of data, drive real-time business decision making and deliver better business outcomes. This is an integral part of our Future of Work journey to improve collaboration, productivity and workforce experience. SUSTAINABILITY, WELLNESS AND RESILIENCE OUR RESPONSE: Sustainable development is one of the biggest challenges for the future, with climate change having a profound long- term impact on the built environment. Sustainability also means that economic, ecological and social actions must always align with the guiding principles of responsibility – for the benefit of both the people and the planet. Concurrently, around the world, health and well-being – physical, mental and social – have become central life goals. As people spend most of their lifetime in buildings, whether at work or at home, the wellness focus will increase their expectations of these buildings. The COVID-19 pandemic has also accelerated society’s awareness and expectations on sustainability, wellness and resilience issues. More than before, businesses must be inclusive and map out a progressive agenda for areas such as climate change, carbon emissions and workforce diversity. Governments and corporates are looking to bolster the resilience of critical infrastructure and supply chains, especially in the healthcare and food arena, so that they are better prepared to manage future pandemics and disasters. Frasers Property is committed to taking responsibility for tackling these ESG challenges together with our community of stakeholders. We are assessing the resilience and climate-adaptiveness of our properties and the responsible use of resources. We are embedding ESG considerations into our decision-making and operational processes. To provide buildings for the occupiers of tomorrow, we are addressing our carbon footprint across our portfolio, both in existing buildings and in construction. Health, well-being and safety have always been major considerations in how we develop and operate our properties. To operate effectively with safe management during the current pandemic, we have implemented heightened health and safety standards across our properties. The Group is conscious of the important role real estate plays in the resilience of societies and will take that into account in its investment, development and operating decisions. Looking ahead, we believe the physical office will continue to play an important role in fostering social contact and corporate culture. Developing and operating office spaces that meet the well-being of users can help attract and retain talent for our tenants. Similar health and well- being considerations can also be said for the homes we build, especially when homes need to accommodate work and school. Find out more in our Sustainability Report.

We made it our top priority to support our tenants and to safeguard the health of our staff, tenants and other stakeholders at our properties while strengthening our resilience to deliver long-term value. The Singapore government introduced a Circuit Breaker period between April to June in 2020 to minimise the spread of COVID-19. During these eight weeks, non-essential business operations were suspended, and restrictions were imposed on movement and interaction in public spaces. The progressive re-opening of business activities from 2 June 2020 had been encouraging though many businesses continued to face disruptions. Our operations in Singapore responded to the pandemic with agility and adaptability to prioritise the health and safety of stakeholders and to provide support for tenants facing business setbacks from workplace closures, safe-distancing measures, remote working arrangements and other COVID-19-related measures. At the same time, we continued our efforts to build long-term resilience and value for our business in Singapore.

Frasers Property Singapore delivered revenue of $609.5 million and profit before interest and taxation (PBIT) of $312.7 million for the year in review. Our revenue and PBIT were 11.3% and 32.8% lower than the previous year respectively, due to the effects of merger between Frasers Commercial Trust and Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust in April 2020, lower profit recognition from our residential properties and rental rebates of about $76.6 million extended to tenants under our Tenant Assistance Package. This was partially mitigated by the full-year contribution from AsiaRetail Fund, which was consolidated from July 2019. The Tenant Assistance Package was rolled out to alleviate our retail and commercial tenants’ cashflow challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The property tax rebates and government cash grants announced in the Singapore government’s Unity, Resilience and Fortitude Budgets were passed on to qualifying tenants ahead of the disbursement from the government. We further granted additional rental waivers in excess of the amounts prescribed under the rental relief framework to targeted businesses that were severly impacted by the COVID-19 situation, such as those in the entertainment, travel-related, fashion as well as food and beverage trades. The option to release security deposits to offset one month’s worth of rental payments was also provided to improve tenant cashflows. Waterway Point • Singapore RETAIL Frasers Property Retail is currently one of the largest suburban retail mall owners in Singapore, with a dominant presence in the north, northeast and east regions of Singapore and total assets under management of $9.2 billion1, as at 30 September 2020. Operations During the year, we made significant strides to grow our retail footprint and strengthen our platform. In May 2020, after the acquisition of AsiaMalls Management in February 2020, we established an integrated retail management platform that manages 152 retail malls and one office building in Singapore. The enlarged management platform further strengthened our competitive position in both physical and omnichannel retail spaces with access to a strong catchment population of 3.03 million, representing almost 52.0% of Singapore’s population.

E-commerce is expected to become a complementary sales channel for tenants. To further build on Frasers Property Retail’s frictionless retail experience, we will be launching an e-commerce marketplace, Frasers eStore. This omnichannel retail platform is part of our ongoing digital transformation journey to invest in innovative digital solutions that support tenants and provide a seamless store-to-door shopping experience for shoppers. Notwithstanding the impact of COVID-19, portfolio occupancy at Frasers Property Retail (excluding the assets held under AsiaRetail Fund) continued to trade at a healthy level with an overall committed occupancy of 92.4%, as at 30 September 2020. Adding to the innovative and immersive retail experience, Decathlon and JustCo opened their flagship stores in The Centrepoint, in addition to smaller store formats in our other malls. Decathlon at The Centrepoint features innovative solutions including virtual-reality test zones for shoppers. JustCo set up its First Smart Centre at The Centrepoint with tech-enabled work solutions such as facial recognition, card-free access via bluetooth and Ratio, a robotic café and lounge. Since the gradual re-opening of the economy and with safe management measures in place, tenants’ sales for the total portfolio recovered close to last year’s level for July to September despite a slower recovery in the malls’ footfall to about 60.0% of the level in the same period last year. Malls located in high-density residential areas near transportation nodes were less impacted. shopping. During the Circuit Breaker period when food and beverage establishments were limited to only offer takeaway or delivery options, we succeeded in rolling out a delivery option and subsidising delivery fees, in addition to pre-order and takeaway services via Frasers Makan Master in just 10 days. This swift roll-out amid the Circuit Breaker period allowed our food and beverage tenants to leverage a ready online platform to reach out to a wider customer base at lower operational costs. In September, Frasers Makan Master was enhanced further to allow shoppers to place orders from multiple food and beverage tenants within the same mall in a single order. Contents 5 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D Financials For the year in review, Frasers Property Retail recorded a 22.8% drop in PBIT to $269.6 million despite the full-year contribution from AsiaRetail Fund, mainly due to the disbursement of rental rebates amounting to $75.3 million under our Tenant Assistance Package to cushion the impact of COVID-19 on our tenants’ businesses. The dilution of interest in Northpoint City South Wing since July 2020 was also a contributing factor. We maintained discipline in optimising our capital productivity by bringing in TCC1 as a strategic partner for a 50.0% stake in Northpoint City South Wing. The transaction allowed Frasers Property to recognise a gain of $50.0 million over the asset’s last audited valuation and yielded $174.5 million of net proceeds, which were used to deleverage Frasers Property’s balance sheet. In addition to continuing with our capital partnership initiatives, we recycled capital through the divestment of our 63.1% stake in AsiaRetail Fund to Frasers Centrepoint Trust for a consideration of about $1.1 billion. The transaction was completed on 27 October 2020. This series of transactions enabled us to further recycle capital while expanding Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s portfolio significantly, which in turn, allowed us to grow our fee income. Furthermore, with the conversion of the property holding companies held under AsiaRetail Fund into limited liability partnership, Frasers Centrepoint Trust will enjoy tax transparency treatment on the taxable income for the portfolio going forward.

The net property income for the year was $110.9 million, down $28.4 million or 20.4% year-on-year. The lower revenue and net property income were mainly attributed to the rental rebate assistance provided to tenants due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Total return before tax was $151.8 million, a decline of $54.2 million or 26.3% year-on-year, and total income available for distribution was $101.2 million, 14.8% lower than last year. Despite the challenging environment, Frasers Centrepoint Trust continued to execute its growth strategy, announcing the acquisition of an additional 12.1% interest in AsiaRetail Fund on 30 June 2020 to raise its stake in the fund to 36.9%. On 3 September 2020, Frasers Centrepoint Trust further announced the acquisition of the remaining 63.1% in AsiaRetail Fund for approximately $1.1 billion and increased its interest in AsiaRetail Fund to 100.0% upon the completion of the acquisition on 27 October 2020. Frasers Centrepoint Trust completed the largest-ever follow-on equity fund raising by a Singapore REIT to date in October 2020, raising about $1.3 billion in gross proceeds, part of which was used to fund the acquisition in AsiaRetail Fund. This elevated Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s position to be among the top 10 largest Singapore REITs by market capitalisation. As at 30 September 2020, Frasers Centrepoint Trust had total assets of $3.9 billion. This increased to approximately $6.7 billion after the divestment of Bedok Point and the completion of the AsiaRetail Fund acquisition. Operating environment Based on the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s ‘Third Quarter 2020 Real Estate Statistics’, retail rentals decreased for three consecutive quarters since the fourth quarter of 2019, registering a decline of 4.5% in the third quarter of 2020, compared to a 3.5% decrease in the previous quarter. Overall vacancy remained flat at 9.6%, having increased from 7.5% since the fourth quarter of 2019. Business sentiments are expected to remain uncertain in 2021. Tenants are adopting a cautious approach towards business expansions even as restrictions gradually ease and the economy resumes activities as we move towards Phase 3. Notwithstanding the challenging retail landscape, some overseas brands entered the Singapore market in 2020. We will continue to work closely with our tenants to create value and provide better shoppers’ experiences through collaboration with business partners, as well as innovation in our business to further strengthen our retail platform. Contents 5 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D COMMERCIAL Frasers Property Singapore’s Commercial Division manages a portfolio of six commercial properties in Singapore, of which two are owned by Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust. The total commercial assets under management was $4.3 billion1 as at 30 September 2020. Over the course of the year, we implemented several initiatives to enhance the future-readiness of our assets. Operations The performance of our commercial portfolio was stable on the whole, in spite of the challenging market conditions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Portfolio occupancy rate increased to 92.8% as at 30 September 2020, compared to 76.1% a year ago, mainly attributed to the improved take up rate for Alexandra Technopark following the completion of its asset enhancements. The average rental reversion for lease commitments signed in FY20 was a positive 3.1%. The year’s challenges provided an opportunity for Frasers Property Singapore to implement several innovative initiatives to future-proof our commercial properties and to ensure our tenants’ safe return to the workplace.

Besides serving as a one-stop service hub for tenants and facilitating contactless access to the building, the platform functions as a Digital Twin or virtual model of the Grade A office building, with capabilities to integrate various systems and enable real-time remote management of the building’s operations. An Integrated Carpark Management System was also piloted at Alexandra Point. This fully automated season parking solution provided an efficient and seamless way for tenants to self- manage and receive information on season parking transactions around the clock. Besides improving the customer experience, the system enabled us to collate useful data for analytics and business insights as well as to streamline our internal processes and resources for higher value-add work and productivity. Financials In FY20, our commercial PBIT registered a decrease of 39.4% to $87.6 million over last year. The decline is mainly due to the exclusion of contributions from Frasers Commercial Trust following its merger with Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust in April 2020, as well as the full-year effect of the dilution of interest in Frasers Tower to 50.0% in July 2019 following an equity injection by a long-term strategic investor. The amount of occupied office space in Singapore decreased by 19,000 sqm (nett) in the third quarter of 2020, compared with the decline of 55,000 sqm (nett) in the previous quarter. Correspondingly, the stock of office space decreased by 33,000 sqm (nett) in third quarter, compared with the increase of 43,000 sqm (nett) in the previous quarter. As a result, the island-wide vacancy rate of office space dropped to 12.0% as at the end of the third quarter 2020, from 12.1% as at the end of the previous quarter. Operating environment Based on the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s ‘Third Quarter 2020 Real Estate Statistics’, rentals of office space decreased by 4.5% in the third quarter of 2020, after remaining unchanged in the previous quarter. At the end of the third quarter, there was a total supply of about 767,000 sqm gross floor area of office space in the pipeline, compared with 668,000 sqm in the previous quarter. Contents 6 0 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW SINGAPORE RESIDENTIAL Frasers Property Singapore’s Residential Division currently has two projects that have been launched for sale. Over the course of the year, we focused on enhancing the resilience of our residential portfolio and added two sites. Development projects We recorded a lower level of progressive profit recognition from Seaside Residences and Rivière as these projects under development experienced curbs and delays in their construction progress during the Circuit Breaker. Despite the restrictions and new measures imposed on the construction industry after works were allowed to resume, we continued to stay vigilant in cost and risk controls. During the Circuit Breaker, sales were affected by the closure of show-flats. In place of face-to-face appointments, we held virtual viewings for Seaside Residences and Rivière. As at 30 September 2020, we sold 94.9% at Seaside Residences, which is scheduled for completion by March 2021, and 12.5% for Rivière, which is expected to receive its temporary occupation permit in December 2022. We also recorded approximately $0.1 billion of unrecognised pre-sold residential development revenue. Land acquisitions In March 2020, Frasers Property Singapore acquired the Fernvale Lane site located in the vibrant Sengkang area at a tender price of approximately $286.5 million. The residential site has a maximum gross floor area of 47,964 sqm, which we intend to develop into a 496- unit executive condominium with a target launch date of mid-2021. Despite challenging times ahead, we are confident of delivering a product that meets the needs of young and growing families in the fast-developing northeast region. We believe we can deliver returns by capitalising on the healthy demand from this market segment. To finance this development, we secured a $350.0 million green loan, which was Singapore’s first green loan for an executive condominium development, and Frasers Property’s tenth green financing initiative.

Bedok Point will continue to be managed by Frasers Property Retail, generating recurring income until we decide to redevelop the site, with the relevant regulatory approvals. Financials Faced with an extremely difficult year, Frasers Property Singapore’s Residential Division recorded a loss before interest and taxation of $38.2 million in FY20, compared to a loss before interest and taxation of $20.6 million the year before. Operating environment The residential market will continue to face heightened uncertainty, with the projected contraction of Singapore’s GDP of between 6.0% and 6.5% in 2020, amid the prolonged closure of international borders resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the market faces supply pressure from the significant supply of units in the launch pipeline. Based on the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s ‘Third Quarter 2020 Real Estate Statistics’, prices of private residential properties increased 0.8% quarter-on-quarter in the third quarter compared to 0.3% in the preceding quarter. New private residential property units sold by developers, excluding executive condominiums, for the nine months ending in September 2020 dropped to 7,379 units, at about 74.4% of 2019’s full-year volume. On the bright side, interest rates for new housing loans have reduced, enticing savvy buyers who were cash-rich to enter the market. Still upbeat on the outlook that real estate properties remain a safe asset in Singapore, buyers are expected to take advantage of the low interest rates to purchase well-priced units and hedge against inflation. As such, we do not expect prices to drop substantially but to remain soft. Contents 6 2 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW AUSTRALIA Artist’s impression of Midtown MacPark, New South Wales • Australia The COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced our belief that our Australian business remains resilient. Drawing on our expertise and track record in placemaking and building communities, we are confident in our sound market strategy, strong business platform and financial stability to pursue opportunities and meet challenges ahead. Australia was in a comparatively better economic position than most other nations affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The economic impact was buffered by the government’s roll-out of employment support schemes, the expedited investment in key projects, and other initiatives to stimulate activity and drive business and consumer confidence. By the close of FY20, Australia’s economy had begun its recovery, with the property sector expected to be an important contributor. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE In FY20, Frasers Property Australia reported revenue of A$659.1 million ($619.5 million) and a profit before interest and taxation of A$40.7 million ($38.3 million). As at 30 September 2020, we had 16,640 residential development units in the pipeline, a strong commercial and retail development pipeline and an investment property portfolio amounting to A$1.9 billion ($1.9 billion) under management in Australia, including assets held by the Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust.

Read more Contents 6 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW AUSTRALIA RESIDENTIAL The slower population growth, due to lower immigration rates and foreign student arrivals during the COVID-19 pandemic, is expected to affect new housing demand in the short- to medium-term. However, the residential market, which is not speculative in nature, holds its resilience by balancing supply to match the demand. The Australian government’s stimulus measures further helped to boost the residential market. The JobKeeper scheme enabled people to retain their jobs, while the A$25,000 HomeBuilder scheme provided incentives for the purchase of new build properties.1 In addition, the increased buyer interest in late FY19 continued its momentum to deliver robust demand in the first half of FY20. The performance of Frasers Property Australia’s residential projects had been just as resilient and encouraging, largely due to the price points and product diversity. We released 1,315 units for sale, sold 1,651 units and reported A$1.1 billion ($1.1 billion) in unrecognised revenue in FY20. A total of 1,595 units were completed and settled as at 30 September 2020. We experienced spikes in enquiries and deposits following the June 2020 announcement of the HomeBuilder scheme, with the advantage of having titled or very near-titled land stock available in many projects. Although the scheme was particularly attractive to first- time home buyers, its A$750,000 price ceiling excluded the medium- and higher-density segments from the scheme, for properties located within or near major capital cities. 1 https://treasury.gov.au/coronavirus Ed.Square, New South Wales • Australia Sales across the residential portfolio were supported by the FPA Sales app, which provided a seamless experience for our sales team and agents to work with customers. Phase 1 of the app was launched in July 2020, enabling users to search and hold properties, including house and land packages, and share project marketing materials. Future phases of this app will allow them to review existing customers’ accounts, reserve stock, implement push notifications and manage enquiries. Among the highlights of the year, Frasers Property Australia acquired a 487,000 sqm infill site at Keperra, Brisbane, for A$31.0 million ($29.1 million) in December 2019. The project will deliver 473 residential units, parks and open spaces, conservation areas and a proposed retail centre with childcare facilities, at an estimated gross development value (GDV) of A$256.7 million ($251.0 million). It is targeted to launch in 2021. In Brisbane, we launched the new Minnippi Quarter project in March 2020. With a mix of terraced homes and land, the new community offers customers the option to offset the embodied carbon in their homes through our Build Neutral homes project, which had been endorsed by the Australian government’s Climate Active initiative. In September 2020, we launched one of Australia’s most significant masterplanned communities at Midtown MacPark at Macquarie Park, Sydney. With an estimated GDV of A$2.1 billion ($2.1 billion), Frasers Property Australia — together with tier-one community housing provider Mission Australia Housing and the New South Wales government — will deliver approximately 3,300 homes, in a mix of private units, 128 affordable housing units and at least 950 community housing units over the next 10 to 15 years at Midtown. The development will also create a new inclusive urban neighbourhood A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 6 5 Artist’s impression of Minnippi Quarter, Queensland • Australia in a well-connected location, that integrates community facilities, a proposed school, childcare and aged care amenities, parks and playgrounds, a community centre, a pool and a gymnasium. In Sydney’s southwest, the first residents of Ed.Square moved into the new mixed-use community in August 2020. As at 30 September 2020, 495 lots have been sold to date at the project, and 210 lots were settled in FY20. In addition to the strong buyer demand, Ed.Square received strong enquiries from over 200 potential tenants. The Waterfront, Shell Cove, on the New South Wales south coast, remained popular among buyers. Over 125 units were sold during the year, including 55 premium apartments that were released in August 2020. In addition, Balmoral Hospitality purchased approximately 1,000 sqm of retail space in the new harbourfront dining precinct on the ground floor of the Aqua building. Construction progressed during the year, with the new urban plaza completed, and the Waterfront Tavern, marina and boat harbour on schedule for completion in 2021. In August 2020, Frasers Property Australia announced a new A$549.4 million ($537.3 million) masterplanned community at a 1,163,300 sqm site in Clyde North, along Melbourne’s southeast growth corridor. The development is anticipated to comprise approximately 1,600 homes, a 6,000 sqm town centre, an exclusive residents’ club, a primary school, a childcare centre and extensive parklands. We plan to release the first land lots in 2021. In Victoria, Burwood Brickworks’ launch of the prestigious Promenade homes in July 2020 was well-received by buyers. Construction progressed well during the year for the West Garden Apartment, South Garden Apartment, East Garden Apartment and Plaza Garden Apartment buildings, and works commenced on the first four stages of town homes. In July 2020, we partnered with the Western Australian government’s Department of Communities to launch the East Green project set on a 38,600 sqm site. This 85- lot residential development can accommodate up to 100 residential units. More than 1,300 expressions of interest came from potential buyers as at September 2020, with the first two stages sold out within days, contributing A$11.9 million ($11.2 million) in sales. Frasers Property Australia believes that the long-term positive drivers for the residential market remain in place, despite the subdued employment outlook and the short- term effects of COVID-19.

This model is most effective in mixed- use developments, where we can curate the residential and retail components carefully to maximise community and commercial benefits. Retail was affected by periods of lockdown and trading restrictions in the second half of FY20. Despite this, we completed and opened three super-neighbourhood centres: Burwood Brickworks in Victoria, Eastern Creek Quarter Stage 1 in New South Wales, as well as Shell Cove Retail Stage 3 in New South Wales, which we sold to a third party for a GDV of A$5.5 million ($5.2 million). Burwood Brickworks opened in December 2019 to strong foot traffic of approximately 40,000 each week prior to the first COVID-19 lockdown in March 2020. The centre is anchored by a Woolworths supermarket and mini-major1 Dan Murphy’s, with a strong entertainment and dining focus to complement the lifestyles of residents in this mixed-use community. These tenants, including Reading Cinemas and the urban farm, have been significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic but will provide unique points of difference to drive the long-term performance of Burwood Brickworks. Frasers Property Australia undertook the first round of the Living Building Challenge® certification for Burwood Brickworks in FY20. This certification, once achieved, will officially recognise the centre as the world’s most sustainable retail development. The certification process, which requires further analysis and auditing of material and operational performance data, is likely to run beyond FY21 due to retail disruptions caused by the pandemic. In June 2020, Eastern Creek Quarter Stage 1 opened to the community. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, visitors numbered 70,000 during the first four days of its opening and over 212,000 for the first month. The centre accommodates anchor tenant Woolworths supermarket, mini-major1 BWS, and a range of speciality stores and quality brands. It includes the dining and entertainment precinct, ECQ Social, which differentiates the centre in the western Sydney retail landscape. Eastern Creek Quarter’s dining focus was particularly well-received, with food retail sales of A$12,919 per sqm ($12,143 per sqm) in annualised turnover across June and July 2020, outperforming the single supermarket category benchmark of A$12,194 per sqm ($11,461 per sqm). The 6-Star Green Star centre quickly established itself as a vibrant retail and recreational destination in the local community and an outstanding performer in Frasers Property Australia’s retail portfolio, in terms of visitorship and sustainability performance. 1 Relatively large tenant occupying 600-1,500 sqm of retail space Contents 7 0 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW AUSTRALIA Mambourin, Victoria • Australia The future Stage 2 of Eastern Creek Quarter will deliver approximately 11,600 sqm of large format retail space. It is one of the projects named by the New South Wales’ government to undergo a fast- tracked assessment process under the Planning System Acceleration Programme, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In Sydney’s southwest, Frasers Property Australia is developing the new Ed.Square Town Centre as part of a new mixed-use community integrated with Edmondson Park train station. On completion, it will incorporate an ‘Eat Street’, fresh food marketplace, cinema, childcare centre, waterplay area, 24-hour gymnasium, tavern and healthcare facilities. Anchor tenant Coles supermarket and Liquorland opened in September 2020 to coincide with the residents moving in. The remaining tenants from the first stage will open in the second and third quarters of FY21. In Victoria, we are creating a mixed- use community at Mambourin, in Melbourne’s western growth corridor. It is anticipated to incorporate a new town centre with approximately 18,500 sqm of retail space, to be delivered in two stages and anchored by a major supermarket tenant. Besides the new Town Centre, the A$454.5 million ($444.4 million) Mambourin community is anticipated to include an exclusive residents’ club, expansive wetlands, a playground, a proposed school, a new train station, a library, a kindergarten, a performing arts centre and a CBD. We received approval for the urban design framework of Mambourin Town Centre from Wyndham City Council in July 2020, and will submit a retail masterplan for approval in late 2020. Work on the site is targeted to commence in mid-2022 with the first stage scheduled to open in the second half of 2023. The COVID-19 restrictions and social changes have had a marked impact on retail sales. Except for Victoria, which experienced a second wave of infections, restrictions had eased in most areas, and consumers had begun to re-engage with retail businesses by the end of FY20. We will continue to seek opportunities to roll out the super- neighbourhood centre model as part of mixed-use developments where we can leverage our cross- sector expertise in residential and commercial developments to deliver complementary experiences to communities.

The emergence of flexible working arrangements and a more mobile workforce had been evident for several years, even before the COVID-19 pandemic. As companies evaluate their office space needs, their use of commercial tenancies evolves. Nevertheless, we believe the physical office space will remain relevant for companies to facilitate social connection and foster corporate culture beyond the current disruption to the leasing of offices. Our focus at Frasers Property Australia is to create complementary community amenities and programmes to enhance our commercial offerings and provide tenants with a holistic and inclusive experience. This approach allows us to differentiate our commercial properties from our competitors. In a major highlight for the year, in August 2020, Frasers Property Australia and joint-venture partner, Dexus, unveiled the design of the most significant new office development in Sydney in recent years. Once approved, the A$2.5 billion Central Place Sydney project, adjacent to the new Atlassian headquarters, will be a key component of the new Tech Central precinct. The New South Wales government has re-zoned and positioned the site to be a key driver of innovation and growth, contributing to Sydney’s 24-hour economy. Central Place Sydney’s tech-focused design comprises two office towers of up to 39 levels and a landmark sculptural building. It will feature 100% renewable energy and a range of healthy building initiatives, including touchless entry points and a potential for the world’s first closed cavity façade system powered by artificial intelligence and solar glass. Rhodes Corporate Park, New South Wales • Australia Pending approval, Central Place Sydney will be developed over the next five years, supporting 700 jobs in construction and over 10,000 jobs when completed. With the capacity to be released in stages according to demand, once approved, Central Place Sydney will deliver 140,000 sqm of commercial space as well as ground-floor retail and upgraded public areas. At Rhodes Corporate Park, Hewlett Packard committed to a new lease in February 2020 covering 2,777 sqm in Building F. The lease began in June 2020 with a net rental of A$450 ($440) per sqm and annual increases of 4%. Frasers Property Australia is focused on repositioning and re-leasing its four owned assets in Rhodes Corporate Park as total vacancy among these assets stood at approximately 15,000 sqm at the close of FY20. Our Commercial Division also provides ongoing asset management to Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust’s commercial portfolio. The portfolio includes three assets: Central Park in Perth, 357 Collins Street in Melbourne, and Caroline Chisholm Centre in Canberra. With a combined value of more than A$879.0 million ($859.6 million), these properties underpin the importance of Frasers Property Australia’s asset services function. Repositioning programmes at Central Park and 357 Collins Street are progressing to mitigate vacancy risk.

Exploring new markets, we secured a new build-to-rent project in Brisbane in October 2020. We also plan to enhance the integration between our asset management, property management and operations teams to deliver increased efficiencies that will also help future-proof our commercial business in Australia. It had been a year of transformation for Frasers Property Australia as we strengthened our leadership team to support our growth ambitions. From 1 October 2020, Anthony Boyd took over as Chief Executive Officer from Rod Fehring, who assumed the position of Executive Chairman of Frasers Property Australia, Frasers Property Industrial and Frasers Property UK. Maintaining a balanced view of risk and opportunity, we are committed to further our growth through the right opportunities in Australia. We plan to target projects with high barriers to entry such as masterplan developments similar to Central Park Sydney and Midtown MacPark.

Being able to achieve reliable earnings in these uncertain times demonstrates Frasers Property Industrial’s rigorous and disciplined approach to capital and portfolio management. Against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, the global industrial and logistics sector has proven resilient. Yields for prime assets held firm in FY20 and are likely to tighten in the near term, driven by the low interest rate environment and the scale of capital looking to enter the sector. Well-located assets are expected to perform strongly with the ‘stay-at-home’ economy accelerating the rate of e-commerce adoption, with the non-discretionary, food and beverage, transport and logistics sectors driving demand. Frasers Property Industrial was formed in October 2019 as Frasers Property’s new multi-national integrated industrial and logistics strategic business unit. As at September 2020, our total industrial and logistics assets under management was $8.7 billion1 with a strong development pipeline and landbank of 2.8 million sqm. The portfolio consisted of 149 properties, equating to 3.8 million sqm of gross floor area with an occupancy rate of 97.9%2 and a weighted average lease expiry profile of 5.42 years. These positive outcomes were a result of our strategic focus on core, established markets in order to provide customers with tailored solutions in strategic locations while providing high-quality development and asset management services. 1 2 Comprises industrial and logistics property assets (excludes Thailand) in which Frasers Property has an interest, including assets held by Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust By income Contents 7 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE In FY20, Frasers Property Industrial achieved a profit before interest, fair value change, taxation and exceptional items of $351.1 million. It was a solid year of growth as we began to implement our strategy of creating an integrated, focused and resilient business with customer- centricity and sustainability as key drivers of value creation. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic during the year, we focused primarily on engaging customers proactively to identify areas of risk and key market impacts. Frasers Property Industrial’s scale increased during the year backed by strong performance by our development teams as well as the merger of Frasers Commercial Trust and Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust to form Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust in April 2020. A rigorous and disciplined approach towards capital and portfolio management calibrated our exposure to acquisitions, development projects and investment properties throughout the year to deliver long- term sustainable returns. AUSTRALIA We delivered 188,234 sqm of industrial, logistics and commercial facilities in Australia over the course of FY20, with a total investment value of A$431.1 million ($421.6 million). Six assets with an investment value of A$268.2 million ($262.3 million) were retained on balance sheet, two commercial and industrial assets with a combined gross development value of A$162.9 million ($159.3 million) were sold to third parties, and one asset was sold to Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust for a value of A$22.5 million ($22.1 million). As at September 2020, the industrial portfolio in Australia was 100.0% occupied, on the back of strong leasing activity with renewals. The Horsley Park Estate, New South Wales • Australia Acquisitions remained a focus in FY20 as we actively sought to replenish our landbank in a highly competitive market, with approximately 700,000 sqm of developable area secured across six sites. In total, we traded through 271,000 sqm of land, ending the year with a total of 2,695,000 sqm in our industrial, logistics and commercial national landbank, excluding conditional sites. The committed forward industrial, logistics and commercial workload was 135,073 sqm, as at September 2020, with six facilities scheduled for delivery in FY21 and one commercial asset scheduled for delivery in FY22. Key pre-committed transactions include repeat customer Mazda Australia committing to a 10-year lease for a 37,235 sqm facility as anchor tenant at 4Ten Epping in Melbourne; power tools and garden products company Ozito Industries committing to 19,815 sqm in Dandenong; Pacific Optics committing to a seven-year lease for 9,107 sqm at Yatala Central in Queensland, and Hino Motor Sales Australia signing a 10-year lease for a 9,230 sqm high-tech facility at The Horsley Park Estate in Western Sydney. In addition, CEVA Logistics committed to two new facilities, namely a 37,523 sqm space in West Park Industrial Estate, Truganina, and a second facility in Berrinba Logistics Park in Queensland, taking its total occupancy at the latter to approximately 60,000 sqm. A significant land-and-build package transaction with retail company Jaycar Electronics at Eastern Creek Business Park, New South Wales, reached completion during the year. This A$51.3 million ($48.2 million) 21,688 sqm project is a state-of- the-art high bay, automated facility designed to transform Jaycar’s supply chain.

As at September 2020, the industrial portfolio in Europe was 99.0% occupied. During the year in review, we secured three sites in Germany. One was in Egelsbach, located 10 km south of Frankfurt, while the other two were in the Bavaria region, in Gunzburg and Kleinkotz. Following the acquisition, we planned to develop the Egelsbach site into an industrial estate that consists of two properties with a GLA of approximately 30,000 sqm on a 50,000 sqm plot of land. Construction for Frasers Park Egelsbach commenced during the year, with completion expected in late 2020. The Gunzburg and Kleinkotz acquisitions formed part of an off- market sale and leaseback transaction. The Kleinkotz site comprises approximately 42,000 sqm GLA on 94,000 sqm with an 18-year lease to multi-national manufacturer AL-KO. The 100,000 sqm Gunzburg site, which includes several short-term leases, will be developed into a logistics park with up to 43,000 sqm GLA. Our Europe portfolio achieved strong leasing throughout the year with a total of 282,500 sqm in new leases or lease renewals secured. Notable transactions included a lease extension with VCK for 34,000 sqm at Frasers Park Duisburg, and a 10-year lease commitment by REWE Group in the same estate secured for a new 34,189 sqm speculative development Hermes, Hamburg • Germany prior to completion. We further achieved lease extensions with TNT in Vienna, Austria, and with DB Schenker in Saarwellingen, Germany. Excellent progress was made throughout the year in recruiting talent to execute our strategy in Europe, including the appointment of Alexander Heubes as Managing Director, Europe. Heubes assumed the role in April 2020, bringing extensive experience to Frasers Property Industrial, having worked for 12 years in the German industrial and logistics property sector. Frasers Property Industrial’s strategy in Europe is to focus on the core markets of Germany and the Netherlands to ensure strong portfolio performance, value-add and development opportunities over the short to medium term.

Establishing a consistent brand globally will ensure a clear customer value proposition, as we look to strengthen our market-leading position in Australia and build Frasers Property Industrial’s brand in Europe. The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic to the global economy is expected to result in a review of supply chains with potential reconfigurations to accommodate increased inventory levels over the short to medium term. These factors will be key drivers of demand for Frasers Property Industrial. As supply will continue to be constrained in core markets, the ability to create assets, provide total property lifecycle services and manage a multi-national network of customers will be sources of ongoing competitive advantage. A key strategic achievement for FY20 was the launch of our brand positioning: ‘Find a Place for the Future’. Establishing a consistent brand globally will ensure a clear customer value proposition, as we look to strengthen our market- leading position in Australia and build Frasers Property Industrial’s brand in Europe. Three key sustainability objectives will underpin Frasers Property Industrial’s future-focused vision. They are to achieve net-zero carbon in our operations by the end of FY30; to achieve a GRESB score of 5 Star by FY24, and to have all new projects certified using third-party and relevant green building programmes from FY21, with 80% of owned and managed assets to be certified by FY24. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 8 3 Maxis Business Park, Bracknell • United Kingdom FRASERS LOGISTICS & COMMERCIAL TRUST FY20 was an exciting year of milestones and progress for Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust, marked by several major developments including the completion of a landmark merger with its sister REIT, Frasers Commercial Trust, on 14 April 2020. This strategic combination of two well-established players in the Singapore REIT space created an enlarged platform with approximately $6.2 billion worth of assets as at 30 September 20201. It broadened the REIT’s investment mandate from logistics and industrial properties to encompass CBD commercial properties as well as office and business parks. This transformational merger – which was accretive from the viewpoints of distribution per unit and net asset value per unit – also granted the REIT additional growth opportunities via an enlarged right-of-first-refusal pipeline in excess of $5.0 billion from the sponsor, Frasers Property. Following the merger, the REIT was rebranded from Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust to Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust to reflect the broadened investment mandate. Notwithstanding the disruption to global economies and businesses due to COVID-19, Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust was able to leverage the strength of its prime and high-quality portfolio to turn in a stable performance for FY20, reporting full-year distributable income of $201.1 million, up 48.8% from $135.1 million a year ago. Accordingly, distribution per unit was 1.7% higher, at 7.12 Singapore cents from 7.00 Singapore cents in FY19. The sound performance was achieved through the REIT Manager’s ability to manage and grow the resilient portfolio of 100 logistics and commercial properties. Following the merger, Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust moved swiftly to take full control of Farnborough Business Park in the UK by acquiring the remaining 50.0% stake not already owned by Frasers Commercial Trust by the end of April 2020. In August 2020, it boosted its presence in the two attractive markets of Melbourne’s southeast and the UK’s Thames Valley. This was achieved by acquiring the prime, freehold logistics IVE Group facility at Braeside Industrial Estate in Melbourne, and the high-quality, freehold Maxis Business Park Limited in Bracknell, Thames Valley, in the UK. 1 Excludes a 50.0% interest in the property at 99 Sandstone Place, Parkinson, Queensland, Australia which has been classified as ‘Investment Property Held for Sale’ and the recognition of right-of-use assets upon the adoption of FRS 116 Leases with effect from 1 October 2019 Contents 8 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW INDUSTRIAL Bakker Logistiek, Handelsweg 26, Zeewolde • the Netherlands As part of its active portfolio management strategy, Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust also announced in August 2020 the divestment of the remaining 50.0% interest in 99 Sandstone Place in Queensland, Australia at a 12.2% premium to book value1. This move followed the initial divestment of the first 50.0% interest in the same property, which was transacted at a premium of 8.8% to book value2 in July 2019. The REIT also completed 64 leasing transactions in FY20, with new leasing and renewals of approximately 267,996 sqm, representing 10.5% of total portfolio lettable area. The strong leasing momentum in turn supported a high portfolio occupancy rate of 97.5%, with a weighted average lease expiry by gross rental income of 4.9 years, as at 30 September 2020. 1 2 Book value as at 30 June 2020 Book value as at 31 March 2019 FDM, Eastern Creek Business Park, New South Wales • Australia In July 2020, Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust completed lobby modernisation works at its 50.0%-owned Central Park office tower in Perth, Australia. This move transformed the lobby with a new café and exhibition space, to enhance user experiences while increasing amenities for tenants and the general public.

Presentation dated 22 October 2019. Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust was renamed Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust on 29 April 2020 following the completion of its merger with Frasers Commercial Trust 2 Acquired by Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust in FY20 Contents 8 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW HOSPITALITY Fraser Suites Akasaka, Tokyo • Japan Frasers Hospitality acted with agility and efficiency during the year to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the business as best it can and leverage the foundations it has built as the business transitions into a ‘new normal’. Frasers Hospitality started the financial year with the implementation of a new organisational structure aligned with our business goals, concentrating on our strength in the extended-stay market, building greater brand visibility and focusing on our disciplined approach to securing management contracts. We also embarked on a digital roadmap that would enhance our current marketing platforms and a review of technology that could improve operational efficiencies. These initiatives stood us in good stead to deal with the onset and consequences of the pandemic. Teams throughout Frasers Hospitality rallied together in the face of the unprecedented disruption to the global economy, which had a direct and major impact on the travel industry. Coordinated responses resulted in the swift development of safety protocols in line with World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines, government-mandated regulations and the sharing of group-wide learnings across the different regions. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE In the year under review, Frasers Hospitality’s total revenue and profit before interest and taxation (PBIT) were $488.7 million and $19.6 million respectively, down by 38.8% and 85.1% year-on-year. Despite a positive PBIT growth of 9.8% in the first quarter, the year’s revenue and PBIT were significantly impacted by the pandemic. Due to the global travel standstill and the resulting temporary closure of properties, occupancies across most properties declined. This was partially offset by the maiden full-year contributions from Capri by Fraser China Square and Fraser Suites Hamburg. The long-stay markets in China and Middle East also continued to deliver a steady performance which helped to mitigate the weak transient market. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 8 9 The #FraserCares Commitment We deliver the highest standards of health, hygiene and safety for our guests. Watch video Contents 9 0 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW HOSPITALITY RESILIENCE IN THE FACE OF COVID-19 The establishment of clusters by geographical regions last year was key in the management of the pandemic. The cluster teams were better able to react to on-the-ground sentiments and developments, as well as to implement protocols that met WHO and local government requirements. All properties instituted heightened precautionary and safe-distancing protocols along with cost containment measures. They also reviewed and updated recovery plans on several trajectories as the localised management of the pandemic evolved. As all regions grappled with the nuances of their respective countries, our properties quickly sought and put in place the necessary measures to achieve local certifications in health and safety. Concurrently, a global alliance with testing and certification company, SGS, ensured we had the highest standards of safety measures in place, as further assurance to our guests and staff that their well-being was our priority. Meanwhile, as inbound and outbound travel ground to a halt, we reviewed and quickly developed new strategies to fill our rooms and apartments to mitigate the drastic drop in occupancies. Through this period, teams across Frasers Hospitality demonstrated teamwork and agility in sharing experiences, learning from Modena by Fraser Wuhan where the lockdown first started and other China properties, with the single-minded goal of ensuring safety for guests and staff. Fraser Suites Kensington, London • United Kingdom ASIA PACIFIC Occupancies in Singapore and Australia declined following China’s travel bans and the reported increase in COVID-19 cases in the region. Management teams in Singapore, Australia and Thailand worked with local government agencies to provide accommodation for those in need of quarantine or housing in order to improve occupancies. Government schemes to alleviate losses by organisations also helped in cost management and our operational adjustments. In Singapore, occupancies remained stable with a good base of long-stay guests including Malaysians affected by the movement control order in their country. Capri by Fraser, China Square joined the government-led Stay-Home-Notice arrangement, offering all its rooms to this programme from June to December 2020. The Job Support Scheme introduced by the government provided some measure of relief from the consequences of lockdowns and restrictions imposed from April 2020. As Australia’s lockdown measures took hold, and inbound travel restrictions were imposed, occupancies in hotels fell. Assistance provided by the government through the Job Keepers Scheme provided some reprieve but was not able to reverse the severe impact on the industry. Novotel Melbourne on Collins and Sofitel Sydney Wentworth took in guests who were required to serve their quarantine in government- approved facilities, but Capri by Fraser, Brisbane continued to be affected by low occupancies from the onset of lockdown measures. Fraser Place Melbourne in Victoria, the state that saw a second wave, altered its operating model to take in residential-type long-stay guests. This new shift enabled the property to keep its occupancies at close to 70.0% and report a positive gross operating profit in the last quarter of FY20. Similarly, Fraser Suites Perth, our best performing property in Australia due to its long-stay base, averaged close to 80.0% occupancy since the pandemic began. Fraser Residence Chengdu • China A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 9 1 In Thailand, Fraser Suites Sukhumvit, Bangkok, Modena by Fraser Bangkok and Modena by Fraser Buriram set aside rooms for government agencies to provide quarantine accommodation for returning residents. All three properties had attained local Safety and Health Administration status. In April 2020, Modena by Fraser Bangkok reserved all rooms exclusively for quarantine guests, closing the property to public bookings for two months. Modena by Fraser Buriram and Fraser Suites Sukhumvit, Bangkok also closed in April 2020 for four months. All three properties in Jakarta remained open and served the long-stay corporate guests as Indonesia shut down and closed its international borders. Fraser Residence Menteng, Fraser Residence Sudirman and Fraser Place Setiabudi recorded occupancies of between 47.3% and 66.9%, bolstered by their long-stay base and domestic travellers when Indonesia later lifted restrictions on interstate travel. In Vietnam, Fraser Suites Hanoi held its pre-COVID-19 occupancy rate of above 80.0%, due to its stable long- stay base. The property postponed the opening of a new wing, comprising 90 studio apartments and a rooftop food-and-beverage facility, to the next financial year. Fraser Residence Hanoi, a 214-key serviced residence, is also slated to open in the first quarter of 2021. Most of the properties in Asia Pacific actively sought to create domestic leisure demand and introduce campaigns to capture demand from business travellers as the lockdown eased in China. Fraser Suites Sydney • Australia Contents 9 2 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D NORTH ASIA China, which bore the initial brunt of the pandemic, eased its country and domestic travel restrictions after an intense lockdown. Most of our China properties, which enjoyed healthy long-stay bases, were able to maintain their occupancies even with the resulting reduction in the number of foreign travellers. Growth momentum in the China market remained relatively strong despite the pandemic. During this period, two new properties were added to the China portfolio. Fraser Place Xintiandi is our fourth property in Shanghai and third in the coveted Puxi locale, while the new Fraser Residence Chengdu operates in the city’s new downtown precinct. Both openings were timely in capturing opportunities from the resumption of domestic travel following the easing of local COVID-19 measures. Pre–opening preparations are underway for Fraser Suites Pazhou, located in the new Guangzhou CBD along the southern bank of the Pearl River, and Modena by Fraser Nanjing, situated in the new financial district of Nanjing. The South Korea market faced domestic movement controls and international border closures. While Fraser Place Namdaemun, Seoul closed temporarily from 1 May 2020, Fraser Place Central, Seoul continued to stay open to serve its remaining long-stay guests. In Japan, Fraser Residence Nankai, Osaka leveraged the government’s efforts to drive local consumption and domestic travel. Fraser Suites Akasaka, Tokyo, which had delayed its opening for five months to August 2020, also developed promotions aligned with the government’s ‘Go To Travel’ campaign, a domestic travel-subsidised initiative, in October 2020. Malmaison Edinburgh City • United Kingdom In July 2020, Capri by Fraser, Leipzig opened in time to capture domestic demand within Germany and in the last few weeks of FY20, travel demand from other parts of Europe as well. The property enjoys a prime city centre location. In December 2019, we also opened Malmaison Edinburgh City, a 72-key boutique hotel, which was our second Malmaison property in the Scottish capital. In the second quarter of 2021, Frasers Hospitality will launch the 150-key Malmaison York, our second property in the historical city. Most of our properties in the Middle East, except Fraser Suites Abuja, experienced a significant drop in occupancies. Fraser Suites Abuja and all our managed properties in the region stayed open due to their long- stay base. EUROPE, THE MIDDLE EAST AND AFRICA Our properties in Europe and the UK were directly impacted by government containment measures, starting with a two- to four-month total lockdown, followed by various travel bans, restrictions and quarantine requirements. In response to the crisis, we took the decision to temporarily close our properties in Europe and the UK. During this time, we rationalised costs and utilised government-aided schemes which allowed teams to regroup and plan for the re-opening of our properties. More importantly, we prepared agile re-opening plans that could adapt quickly to multiple possible scenarios. Our focus was to anticipate and prepare new priorities in order to be ready to optimise our market share once the situation started to settle. Following further lockdowns announced by governments in late October 2020, we will intensify our focus on cost containment strategies. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 9 3 RECOVERY PLANS By 30 September 2020, 104 Frasers Hospitality properties had re-opened globally with our ‘#FraserCares’ commitment, which was launched at the start of the pandemic. This is our promise to ensure the health, safety and well-being of guests and staff through a new cleaning regime, safe distancing protocols and redefined operational standards that comply with, or exceed, local government-imposed requirements. We put processes in place to ensure strict adherence to all COVID-19 prevention and management measures, with regular audits and reviews of our protocols supplemented by SGS guidelines and certification. During this financial year, the conclusion of the review of the operational efficiencies of our brands, and the in-depth study of our digital and loyalty marketing platforms had been timely in helping to tackle the pandemic. We plan to expedite the development and roll- out of a new e-commerce website to provide seamless online connectivity as well as clear and constant communication that gives assurance of our health and safety protocols at our properties. Both the corporate and cluster teams are working to ensure post-pandemic readiness at our properties by making sure we are ready to respond across different risk scenarios and developing marketing and business strategies at multiple levels.

Its portfolio performance across all geographies was adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, its better performance in the first quarter of FY20 and the fixed rent it receives under the master lease structure helped to partially mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic. Frasers Hospitality Trust’s income available for distribution for FY20 declined year- on-year by 64.4%. To conserve cash, it retained $3.0 million or approximately 10.0% of its income available for distribution for working capital purposes. This led to a distribution per stapled security of 1.40 Singapore cents for FY20, down 68.3% year-on-year. As at 30 September 2020, Frasers Hospitality Trust’s portfolio of 15 quality assets have a combined appraised value of $2.3 billion, which is 3.5% lower than the previous year.

In Thailand, Frasers Property holds 81.8%1 deemed interest in Frasers Property Thailand, a listed company on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The growth prospects in Thailand, especially in the Eastern Economic Corridor, presents opportunities in the development of infrastructure, business clusters, industrial clusters, innovation hubs, tourist attractions and expansion of new cities. Following the successful voluntary tender offer for Golden Land Property Development in August 2019, Frasers Property Thailand commenced the integration of both businesses to form one of the largest real estate developers in the country by asset size. In August 2020, Frasers Property Thailand increased its stake in Golden Land Property Development from 95.7% to 99.4% and completed the delisting of the latter from the Stock Exchange of Thailand. Frasers Property Thailand is well- positioned to deliver a more extensive range of real estate solutions across the residential, industrial and commercial asset classes to our customers. As at 30 September 2020, the company owned and managed factories and warehouses with 3.0 million sqm of gross floor area, 241,000 sqm of commercial and retail net lettable area, hotel and serviced apartments with 1,100 keys, and 60 active residential projects. 1 As at 30 September 2020, Frasers Property holds approximately 38.3% through its wholly owned subsidiary, Frasers Property Holdings (Thailand) Co., Ltd, and 43.5% through Frasers Assets Co., Ltd, a 49:51 joint venture with TCC Assets Co., Ltd Contents 1 0 2 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW THAILAND RESIDENTIAL In FY20, despite COVID-19-related challenges, revenue from residential developments decreased 6.0% year-on-year to THB14,648 million ($647 million), supported by the ongoing demand for townhouses in Bangkok and the provinces. Our residential business recognised revenue from a total of 60 active projects. Unrecognised revenue stood at THB2,413 million ($104 million) as at 30 September 2020. In order to facilitate sales amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Frasers Property Thailand used online marketing platforms in the home buyer engagement process.

Building a sustainable platform and focusing on our people and the community at Frasers Property Vietnam, we targeted growth opportunities to strengthen our position in each of our market segments and create significant value for our customers and the communities. In FY20, Frasers Property Vietnam achieved significant progress toward our strategic targets. We strengthened our platform with the right talent to anchor the residential, and commercial segments and the supporting technical and corporate functions. Aided by the quick and effective response from the Vietnamese government to contain the spread of COVID-19, the country is expected to deliver healthy long-term economic growth, driven by foreign direct investment inflows and a growing middle class. Vietnam is one of the few economies in the world expected to post GDP growth in 2020¹. Frasers Property Vietnam is poised to ride this opportunity to achieve growth and become one of the key real estate players in the country. RESIDENTIAL Notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic, we achieved full sell-out of all units at Q2 Thao Dien. This high-end mixed-use development in Thao Dien comprises 333 luxury apartments sitting atop a six-storey podium with 13 shop lots, as well as a 32-storey serviced-office tower, six villas and 12 townhouses. In December 2019, we launched the project’s landed residential units, setting market records in its achieved selling price. Within one day, all landed residential units were sold out. The townhouses appealed to buyers with their modern and practical commercial-cum-residential design, allowing a buyer to conduct business on the lower floors while enjoying a spacious, private living area on the upper floors. The villas were well-received among high-income buyers drawn to their luxurious contemporary French designs. As at 30 September 2020, we recorded unrecognised revenue of $182 million for Q2 Thao Dien, including $38 million from the landed residential units sold in the first quarter of FY20. We held the topping-out ceremony for the project’s high-rise residential and serviced office towers on 31 July 2020, with full completion on schedule by the second quarter of FY21. Q2 Thao Dien received the ‘Mixed-use Development 2020’ award from Asia Pacific Property Awards and was accorded the ‘Best Lifestyle Townhouse’ in Robb Report Vietnam’s Best of the Best Awards 2019 in January 2020. 1 According to the IMF World Economic Outlook 2020 (October 2020) Melinh Point is undergoing a major asset enhancement initiative, with sustainability as its key focus. Read more COMMERCIAL We undertook a major asset enhancement initiative at Melinh Point, a 21-storey office building offering approximately 17,500 sqm of Grade A office space in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City’s CBD, in a bid to optimise its value. This initiative saw Melinh Point’s hardware refreshed with sustainability as a key focus. Apart from upgrading the property with energy- and water- efficient features, we enhanced the building’s key management systems to deliver a best-in-class working environment and experiences to our tenants. We have begun feasibility studies to convert certain common areas into a business centre to provide tenants with shared facilities like meeting rooms, conference rooms and training spaces. This was the first asset enhancement initiative for Melinh Point in almost two decades. Resulting from this effort, Melinh Point clinched the Asia Pacific Property Awards for the ‘Best Commercial Renovation/ Redevelopment 2020’. As part of our strategic goal to be carbon-neutral by 2050, we are aiming for Melinh VIETNAM – RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS Artist’s impression of Q2 Thao Dien, Ho Chi Minh City • Vietnam Point to be the first operational building in Vietnam to achieve Singapore’s Building & Construction Authority’s Green Mark Platinum certification upon the completion of its enhancement works by early 2021. During the year, we added Worc@ Q2, the newly topped-out 32-storey serviced office tower in the Q2 Thao Dien project, to our commercial office portfolio. When completed in early 2021, Worc@Q2 will provide approximately 4,500 sqm of commercial serviced office space in smaller and flexible floor plates, including unique duplex layouts for tenants to create a modern and efficient working environment. In FY20, Ho Chi Minh City experienced a trend of work space decentralisation due to high land prices in the city centre and a lack of quality office supply. This trend was accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. With Melinh Point as a refreshed core office asset in the heart of the CBD and a newly completed Worc@Q2 located in District 2 and within 500 metres of an upcoming metro line, Frasers Property Vietnam is in an advantageous position to leverage this trend and fulfil the diverse business needs of tenants.

The refurbishment of Building 1180 is underway with completion due in the third quarter of 2021. These investments are part of the masterplan at Winnersh Triangle which drives our placemaking agenda to unlock value from our assets. At Chineham Park, we opened The Exchange as a collaborative workspace in October 2020, providing occupiers and visitors with flexible meeting areas and a café. Additional asset enhancement initiatives across the portfolio, which we focused on wellness and the adoption of digital communications technology, were also successful in attracting new tenants and retaining existing park occupiers. We completed demolition works for Central House, located in Whitechapel in Central London, in September 2020 and started construction on site in October 2020. The development will deliver 15,000 sqm of office space with a strong focus on the technology sector. The project is a holistic redevelopment of the site to feature high-quality contemporary architecture and landscaping, with delivery expected in the second half of 2022. During the year, Frasers Property UK sold 50.0% of Farnborough Business Park and Maxis Business Park, Bracknell, to Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust. Contents The Exchange at Chineham Business Park, Basingstoke • United Kingdom COMMERCIAL Our UK business park portfolio consists of six business parks in the southeast of England and one in Glasgow, Scotland. This includes Lakeshore, Bedfont Lakes Business Park, which we acquired in January 2020, adding another high-quality business park to our UK portfolio. Located within close proximity to Heathrow Airport, the business park has a lettable area of 25,664 sqm in three office buildings, which are fully leased to the technology firm Cisco Systems. Our business parks are home to 500 companies and are generally located out of town in key business locations with a diversified mix of occupiers and sectors, creating a resilient portfolio. Of the portfolio’s total lettable area of approximately 531,398 sqm, we achieved an occupancy rate of 89.1% by area and a weighted average lease expiry of 6.1 years. Strong leasing performance was also recorded across our portfolio, with 66 new lettings amounting to 31,898 sqm and 70 lease renewals for 32,449 sqm completed during the year. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we maintained regular communication with occupiers from our business parks. Occupiers were able to access park events and resources across the portfolio online. We further invested in digital communications using social media to maintain community engagement, and installed digital displays in multi- let buildings across the business parks to provide occupiers with the latest guidelines on returning to the office. On-site teams also created video guides detailing the measures taken on each property to create a safe and welcoming working environment. 1 1 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BUSINESS REVIEW OTHERS RESILIENT AND SUSTAINABLE PLATFORM In FY20, we continued to strengthen the resilience and sustainability of our platform. The growing maturity of our UK operations and the deep expertise of our people have added further capability and experience to complement our portfolio. We continue to embed a design thinking mindset to fuel innovation and collaboration. This operationally robust and highly skilled team enables us to invest in our assets to maximise occupancy, drive shareholder value and meet customer requirements. We continue to focus on investments in our people and properties and future-proofing our success for the UK platform.

Due to its successful containment of the COVID-19 pandemic, China began to normalise its domestic production and consumption levels, recording economic growth from the second quarter of 2020. It will be among the few countries in the world expected to record growth this year, driven by domestic consumption and growing investments in technology infrastructure and innovations, which helped cushion the effects of the pandemic and geopolitical uncertainties. Against this backdrop, Frasers Property China achieved profit before interest and taxation of $252.2 million for the year under review. This was the second consecutive year that our profit before interest and taxation in China had exceeded $200.0 million. This attests to our ability to effectively manage development projects to deliver attractive development gains from the progressive recognition of revenue from units sold while prudently managing capital. During the year, Frasers Property China handed over 556 residential units, 140 units of retail and commercial space and 399 units of carparks, recognising revenue of RMB2.2 billion ($435.0 million). As at September 2020, our unrecognised pre-sold development revenue in China stood at RMB724.7 million ($144.0 million).

As at 30 September 2020, all the remaining high-rise residential units at our Baitang One development in Suzhou have been fully sold. We are keeping close tabs on the market and will launch the remaining completed 32 villas for sale when we are confident of achieving our price target. The retail space, which caters mainly to residents’ needs, achieved 90.0% occupancy, with a gross rental yield of 6.0% during the year. We are reviewing asset enhancement plans to improve the offerings of the entire retail section, totalling 10,486 sqm (including sales office), to further enhance yield and value. In Shanghai, our Opus One project received overwhelming demand, with 96.0% of 275 units sold within two months of its first launch in April 2020. The remaining 84 units of the development were launched in September 2020 at higher selling prices and were sold within the day. 1 Includes bookings As at 30 September 2020, 99.0%1 of the launch units at the project have been sold. Gemdale Megacity, our other project in Shanghai, achieved full sell-out of Phase 5G and Phase 5H, comprising 519 residential units in total, during the year. Meanwhile the long-term lease apartments at the development reached 90.0% occupancy, with a gross yield of 4.8%. During the year, we commenced enhancement works to add another 53 units of long-term lease apartments, which will bring the total to 201 units when completed in early 2021. In the coming financial year, we will be launching Phase 6 of Gemdale Megacity, comprising 22 low-rise apartment blocks by the riverbank. At our Chengdu Logistics Hub, we sold close to 70,000 sqm of warehouse and retail space and leased out 34,536 sqm of ambient warehouse space in spite of challenges posed by the pandemic to our sales, leasing and business operations. Before China went into high alert due to the pandemic, we successfully completed the divestment of Plot 3B in February 2020. Wuhou Healthcare Investment & Development Co acquired this 68,981 sqm site for RMB715.7 million ($138.3 million), 9.0% higher than valuation. The remaining office and warehouse units at Chengdu Logistics Hub achieved a gross rental yield of 5.0% for the year in review. Plans are underway to reposition the retail warehouses in Plot 3A Chengdu Logistics Hub for the new industrial economy, with shopfront displays, back-of-house office and research and development space. Looking ahead, Frasers Property China will remain disciplined in looking out for attractive investment opportunities through recycling capital into new investments and active asset management to enhance returns, while building strategic partnership with key partners.

Our multi-national businesses which operate across five asset classes — residential, hospitality, retail, commercial and business parks, industrial and logistics properties, together with the asset management of the two REITs listed on the SGX- ST, Frasers Centrepoint Trust (FCT) and Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust (FLCT), as well as the stapled trust listed on the SGX-ST, Frasers Hospitality Trust (FHT) — generate cash flows for the Group. Management monitors the Group’s cash flow position and projections, debt maturity profile, funding cost, interest rate and foreign exchange exposures and overall liquidity position on a continuous basis. To ensure that we have adequate overall liquidity to finance our operations and investment requirements, we maintain available banking facilities with a number of banks globally. As at 30 September 2020, net group borrowings had increased from $13.8 billion to $15.9 billion mainly due to the redemption and cancellation of $700.0 million perpetual securities in March 2020; increased borrowings for the acquisition of a property in the UK and capital expenditure in Singapore, Thailand and Australia. The increase was partially offset by the divestment of a 50.0% stake in Northpoint City South Wing. SOURCE OF FUNDING Besides cash flow from our businesses, we rely on the debt capital markets, equity capital markets and syndicated and bilateral banking facilities for our funding. As at 30 September 2020, the Group had about $2.4 billion in unutilised banking facilities that may be used to meet our funding requirements. We maintain active relationships with a strong network of banking partners globally. Our principal bankers include Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited, Bangkok Bank Public Company Limited, Bank of China Limited, DBS Bank Ltd., Malayan Banking Berhad, Mizuho Bank, Limited, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited, Standard Chartered Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and United Overseas Bank Limited. We continue to adopt the philosophy of engaging the banks as our core business partners and receive very strong support from our relationship banks across all segments of the Group’s businesses. All the Group’s banking relationships are maintained by Group Treasury in Singapore. GREEN FINANCING In FY20, we secured a green loan of $350.0 million to finance an executive condominium development (80.0% joint venture project) at Fernvale Lane, which is the first in Singapore for an executive condominium. Frasers Property Australia also raised a A$70.0 million green loan (50.0% joint venture project) for The Grove development. Frasers Commercial Trust (FCOT) and FLCT had raised a total of $543.0 million and A$120.0 million sustainable linked loans during the year for funding of new acquisitions and for refinance of existing loan due. To date, the Group, including its subsidiaries and associated entities, has secured 12 green and sustainability linked financing totalling $4 billion, which is approximately 24.0% of our net borrowings. DEBT CAPITAL MARKETS We have various Medium Term Notes (MTN) programmes in place to tap the debt capital market. Frasers Property Treasury Pte Ltd has a $3.0 billion MTN (issued: $753.0 million) and a $5.0 billion Euro Medium Term Notes (EMTN) (issued: $1,750.0 million) programmes. On 9 March 2020, Frasers Property Treasury redeemed the $700.0 million 5.0% perpetual securities. Frasers Property Australia has established an A$2 billion EMTN programme on 6 February 2020. Among our Thailand subsidiaries, Frasers Property Holdings (Thailand) Co. Ltd. has a THB25.0 billion (issued: THB11.0 billion) debenture programme; Frasers Property Thailand has a THB50.0 billion (issued: THB31.8 billion), and Golden Land Property Development Plc (GOLD) has a THB13.0 billion (issued: THB9.5 billion) debenture programme respectively. In FY20, Frasers Property Thailand tapped the bond market in Thailand with the issuance of THB6.0 billion debentures with tenors ranging from three years to 10 years, while GOLD issued a THB 1.5 billion debenture of a five-year tenor. Our sponsored REITs, FCT and FLCT, and our stapled trust FHT, each have their respective MTN programmes: FCT: $1.0 billion MTN (issued: $150.0 million) and $3.0 billion EMTN (issued: $200.0 million); FCOT: $1.0 billion MTN (issued: $131.0 million); FLCT: $1.0 billion EMTN (issued: nil) and FHT: $1.0 billion EMTN (issued: $340.0 million). In May 2020 , FCT issued $200.0 million of notes due 2023 with a 3.2% fixed rate coupon. 1 Includes debt related to Frasers Tower, Northpoint City South Wing and The Grove project, which are not included in the consolidated financial statements.

On a portfolio basis, 62.0% of the Group’s borrowings are in fixed rates (including floating rate borrowings that have been fixed with interest rate swaps). The average tenor of the loans is 2.6 years as at 30 September 2020. The floating rate loan portfolio provides us with the flexibility to repay debts from divestments of assets and sales of development properties. In managing the interest rate profile, we take into account the interest rate outlook, expected cash flow generated from our business operations, holding period of long-term investments and any acquisition and divestment plans. We make use of interest rate derivatives (for example interest rate swaps) for the purpose of hedging interest rate risks and managing our portfolio of fixed and floating rate borrowings. We do not engage in the trading of interest rate derivatives. Our total interest rate derivatives and the mark-to-market values as at 30 September 2020 are disclosed in the financial statements in Note 21. GEARING AND INTEREST COVER We aim to keep our net debt to equity ratio between 80.0% and 100.0% in the medium term. As at 30 September 2020, this ratio was 105.0%. However, on a proforma basis, the net debt-to-equity ratio is 95.7% post divestment of AsiaRetail Fund to FCT as at 30 September 2020. The divestment was completed in October 2020. Net interest expense for the year amounted to $442.3 million, excluding $39.5 million that was capitalised as cost of development properties held for sale and $3.5 million that was capitalised as cost of investment properties under construction. The net interest² cover³ was at three times. FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISKS AND DERIVATIVES We have exposure to foreign exchange risks arising from normal development and investment activities. Where exposures are certain, it is the Group’s policy to hedge these risks as they arise. We use foreign currency forward contracts and currency derivatives (for example: cross currency swaps) to manage these foreign exchange risks. In order to have a natural hedge, where possible, we will fund foreign currency assets with debt in the same currency. We do not engage in trading of foreign exchange and foreign exchange derivatives. We use foreign exchange contracts and derivatives solely for hedging actual underlying foreign exchange requirements in accordance with hedging limits set by the Audit Committee and our Board of Directors under the Group’s Treasury Policy. These policies are reviewed regularly by the Audit Committee and Executive Committee to ensure that our policies and guidelines are in line with our foreign exchange risk management objectives. Our foreign exchange contracts and derivatives and the mark-to-market values as at 30 September 2020 are disclosed in the financial statements in Note 21. 2 Net interest in the profit statement excluding mark-to-market adjustments on interest rate derivatives and capitalised interest 3 Net interest cover: Profit before interest, fair value change, taxation and exceptional items/net interest expense Contents 1 2 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D SUSTAINABILITY REPORT A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 2 5 CONTENTS 126 127 128 130 132 136 147 156 169 170 Board Statement The Year at A Glance Strengthening Our Sustainability Core Creating Value Through Our Business Model Managing Sustainability Acting Progressively Consuming Responsibly Focusing on People About This Report GRI Content Index GLOSSARY For ease of reading, this glossary provides definitions of abbreviations that are frequently used throughout this report Abbreviations used in report AS/NZS 4801 : Australia/New Zealand Standard for ISO 50001 : International Organization for Standardization BBP BCA Occupational Health & Safety : Better Buildings Partnership : Building and Construction Authority, Singapore BREEAM : Building Research Establishment CCTV DGNB EDGE EHS EHSMS ESG FRx GBCA GHG GRESB GRI HSE HVAC ISAAP Environmental Assessment Method : Closed-circuit Television : German Sustainable Building Council : Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies : Environment, Health and Safety : Environmental, Health and Safety Management System : Environmental, Social and Governance : Frasers Experience : Green Building Council of Australia : Greenhouse Gas : Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark : Global Reporting Initiative : Health, Safety and Environment : Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning International Serviced Accommodation : Accreditation Process ISO 14001 : International Organization for Standardization (Environmental Management System) ISO 18001 : International Organization for ISO 45001 : Standardization (Occupational Health and Safety Management System) International Organization for Standardization (Occupational Health and Safety Management System) LEED : Leadership in Energy and Environmental (Energy Management System) Design LGBTI NABERS : Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender or Intersex : National Australian Built Environment Rating System NGOs OHSAS 18001 : Occupational Health and Safety Assessment : Non-governmental Organisations PV SBTi SDG SGBC SSC TAFEP Series 18001 : Photo-voltaic : Science Based Targets initiative : Sustainable Development Goal : Singapore Green Building Council : Sustainability Steering Committee : Tripartite Alliance for Fair and Progressive Employment Practices TCFD : Task Force on Climate-related Financial UN UNEP UNFCCC Disclosures : United Nations : United Nations Environment Programme : United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change UNGC UNWEP : United Nations Global Compact : United Nations Women Empowerment UV WELL WSHC Principles : Ultraviolet : WELL Building Standard : Workplace Safety and Health Council, Singapore Contents 1 2 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D BOARD STATEMENT Dear Fellow Stakeholders, While the world has developed and evolved to be a better place to live and work in, we continue to face significant environmental challenges brought upon by climate change, while social issues are becoming more pronounced. It has become increasingly clear that Frasers Property must not only deliver financial performance, but we also need to understand our role in society and show how we make a positive contribution. A sense of purpose can help us better achieve our full potential. Delivering sustainable impact – for our planet, people and communities – has never been more important. We want to continue to demonstrate progress. Hence, we put sustainability at the core of our business and our purpose is to inspire experiences and create places for good with quality products and services. This allows us to create lasting shared value, for our people, the businesses and communities we serve, within the ecosystem in which we will live for generations. While pursuing our business goals, we aim to demonstrate our commitment to positively impact the environment and society by acting progressively, producing and consuming responsibly, and focusing on people. Raising sustainability ideals across our value chain, in partnership with our stakeholders, to build a more resilient business aligned with national and international sustainability standards and regulations, is a key aspect of how we embed purpose into our business. With that in mind, we are working on our roadmap to incorporate sustainability practices throughout the property lifecycle – from investment to design, development and operation – emphasising on carbon reduction, energy efficiency and sustainable technology. As a responsible asset manager, we commit to assessing the resilience and climate-adaptiveness of our properties, the responsible consumption or recycling of resources, and the health, well-being and connectedness of people and communities. Concurrently, as a responsible capital manager, we will incorporate environmental, social and governance considerations in our managed investments, leading green financing to further enhance the competitiveness and resilience of the assets we create and manage. We believe we are on the edge of a fundamental reshaping of the real estate industry. Raising sustainability ideals across our value chain, in partnership with our stakeholders, to build a more resilient business aligned with national and international sustainability standards and regulations, is a key aspect of how we embed purpose into our business. In FY20, we took a major step by identifying five sustainability goals, which we are prioritising for our business operations. These goals are in the areas of energy and carbon where we are targeting net-zero carbon by 2050 across our businesses; resilient properties; responsible investment; and skills and leadership. Over this past year, Frasers Property has introduced a Community Investment Framework, a Group- wide Corporate Social Responsibility Policy and a Group-wide Diversity & Inclusion Policy. Earlier this year, we made a commitment to advance and empower women at the workplace by endorsing the Women’s Empowerment Principles, a joint initiative of UN Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women and UN Global Compact. These initiatives are examples of the progressive efforts we are making to ensure empowerment and gender equity in the organisation, including increasing female representation on the boards across the Group. As the world continues to battle global warming, natural catastrophes and humanitarian issues, the COVID-19 crisis has added to the long list of critical issues confronting businesses and economies globally. We hope to contribute to global sustainability advancements on these issues – aligning our efforts to eight UN Sustainable Development Goals – and to act in partnership with local governments and stakeholders to mitigate the worsening of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Board of Directors continues to provide strategic oversight and direction in the monitoring and management of sustainability within the Frasers Property Group. As we journey along, we will update you regularly with measurable progress on how our business has impacted our stakeholders, the environment and the broader society. Our annual Sustainability Report is now in its sixth year. We invite you to read on to find out more about our sustainability initiatives in FY20.

As a responsible corporation, we see the urgency to address critical global warming and humanitarian issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic, by strengthening our sustainability core. Concurrently, we are conscious the built environment accounts for a significant 39% of global carbon emissions, according to the World Green Building Council. This is where we believe we can leverage our position in the value chain to reduce emissions and influence other stakeholders to act as well. OUR SUSTAINABILITY FRAMEWORK Over the years, we have developed a strong foundation covering the three aspects of sustainability: environmental, social and governance. Social and governance issues reflect the backbone of how we run the business ethically, while contributing to our local communities and our employee diversity and well-being. Our Sustainability Framework, established in 2018, sets out the Group’s sustainability priorities through to 2030. The Framework’s three pillars — Acting Progressively, Consuming Responsibly and Focusing on People — form a multi-disciplinary approach that recognises 13 corresponding environmental, social and governance focus areas. Our business units and listed trusts continuously review their practices, policies, performance and targets in relation to these focus areas. P I L L A R S Acting Progressively Consuming Responsibly F O C U S A R E A S Focusing on People Innovation Fostering an innovation culture that creates value and strengthens our competitive edge Materials & Supply Chain Achieving the sustainable management and efficient use of material along the supply chain Resilient Properties Strengthening resilience and climate adaptive capacity Risk-Based Management Comprehensive assessment to address environmental, health and safety risks Responsible Investment Incorporating social, environment and governance criteria in the evaluation process Biodiversity Enhancing the environment and ecosystem through our developments Energy & Carbon Increasing substantially energy efficiency and renewable energy used Waste Reducing substantially waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling and reuse Water Increasing substantially water efficiency and the recycling and safe reuse of water discharged Community Connectedness Considering social value principles for communities Health & Well-being Ensuring healthy and balanced work and community environments Diversity & Inclusion Empowering and promoting the social inclusion of all, irrespective of age, sex, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion or economic or other status Skills & Leadership Developing skills and leadership programmes that support productive activities, creativity and innovation to deliver high value A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 2 9 Sustainability is at the heart of creating places and inspiring experiences that matter at Frasers Property. To be an enduring and progressive company, we seek to incorporate sustainability into every stage of our value chain – from business strategies to operations. We are here for the long term, and we want to benefit the people and environment of the communities that we operate in. In creating shared value for our stakeholders and the environment, we also create a resilient business for many more generations to come. We will continue to work on our sustainability processes and performance, as we identify opportunities to offer better experiences and high-quality properties for our stakeholders. PANOTE SIRIVADHANABHAKDI Group Chief Executive Officer MAKING SUSTAINABILITY OUR CORE CAPABILITY All the leaders of Frasers Property agree that sustainability has to be developed as a core capability. Beyond just managing risks, sustainability provides opportunities to future-ready our business through innovation and long-term strategic planning. In FY20, our leaders established five new sustainability goals that will guide Frasers Property to 2050. Establishing these initial five goals is a key milestone as we further strengthen our sustainability core and integrate sustainability into our business operations. GOAL #1 To Be A Net-Zero Carbon Corporation by 2050 With the real estate industry responsible for about 39% of energy- and process-related emissions, tackling climate change is our top priority. Many countries have set targets to achieve carbon neutrality, including Europe by 2050. In line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recommendation, Frasers Property will take bold action to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. By 2022, all our businesses will have completed the development of their net-zero carbon roadmaps and carbon reduction targets using a science- based approach. GOAL #2 To Be Climate-Resilient and Establish Adaptation and Mitigation Plans by 2024 Scenario analysis of possible climate related outcomes – such as the impact from temperature increases (below 2oC scenario: RCP 2.6 and below 4oC scenario: RCP 8.5) – demonstrate how our business might perform in the future. Such insights inform decisions on risk adaptation and identify opportunities and business strategies now. We will carry out climate risk assessments and implement asset-level adaptation and mitigation plans by 2024, and align our reporting with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures framework. GOAL #3 To Green-certify 80% of Our Owned and Managed Assets by 2024 Green buildings contribute to many aspects of environmental sustainability, from being energy- and water-efficient and optimising the use of resources to providing healthy environments for tenants. With over 200 buildings green-certified since 2005, we are setting a goal to certify 80% of all our owned and managed assets by 2024, and to have all new projects under development to be certified by 2021. There are various certification schemes that we adopt, such as Green Mark in Singapore and Vietnam, Green Star in Australia and Europe, BREEAM in the UK, and WELL and LEED in Thailand. GOAL #4 To Finance the Majority of Our Sustainable Asset Portfolios with Green and Sustainable Financing by 2024 Green and sustainable financing plays an important role to encourage businesses to prioritise sustainable development. Green and sustainable financing also provides access to a wider pool of financing partners and direct savings on financing costs. Since 2018, we have secured a total of 12 green and sustainability-linked loans amounting to about $4 billion. We have set a goal to finance the majority of our sustainable asset portfolios with green and sustainable financing by 2024. GOAL #5 To Train All our Employees on Sustainability by 2021 For us to be sustainable, our people have to understand and believe in our goals, and have the ability to act sustainably. In recent years, we have created awareness among our employees and stakeholders through activation campaigns and training programmes. We want to go further with the aim to train all our employees on sustainability by 2021 and extend this training to our supply chain and other stakeholders beyond 2021.

A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 3 1 Frasers Property has been supporting the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the 17 UN SDGs since 2017. As we step up our sustainability strategy, we identified an additional priority, SDG 13 – Climate Action, which resonates with our purpose. Contribution to SDGs Frasers Property’s Position Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all We proactively promote Health & Well-being and the safety of our people and the community, including Community Connectedness.

Our focus in Diversity & Inclusion ensures we strive to create a diverse and inclusive workplace where difference is valued and we continue to promote a progressive, respectful culture. We reward employees based on their performance at the workplace. Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable By focusing on Responsible Investment and Resilient Properties, we create places that sustain communities and the environment through design and investment decisions. Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts We aim to have Resilient Properties and set our sights on achieving net-zero carbon by 2050 as an organisation. Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalise the global partnership for sustainable development As we focus on Community Connectedness, we form partnerships with stakeholders – industry, government, non-governmental organisations – with similar sustainability objectives. Contents 1 3 2 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D MANAGING SUSTAINABILITY To achieve organisational success in sustainability integration within the business requires a top-level alignment of sustainability priorities within the corporate strategy. At Frasers Property, sustainability sits highly on the management agenda in strategic planning. SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE A Sustainability Steering Committee comprising senior management meets monthly to drive the sustainability strategy, review sustainability performance and approve action plans and policies to internalise the sustainability practices. This Committee is supported by the Group Sustainability Team and a Project Management Office, as well as a Global Sustainability Taskforce assembled from middle management representatives across our business units. The Taskforce supports the business units in developing their sustainability action plans and monitoring their sustainability performance. In addition, some business units have formed their own governance structures with steering committees and working committees to further internalise sustainability priorities. Dedicated taskforces have also been set up to advance Group focus areas such as diversity and inclusion and health and well-being. Continuing to invest in significant resources required to drive sustainability, the Group has over 20 full-time sustainability professionals employed across our key operations in Singapore, Australia, Thailand, Vietnam, Europe and the UK. Together, they form one of the largest sustainability teams among our real estate peers.

In FY19, a survey was carried out with our stakeholders to seek their views in relation to environment, social and governance topics important to the Group. In addition, a detailed analysis on industry trends and peer review was conducted. We concluded, from the survey, that our material topics remained relevant with emerging topics for our business set out in our Sustainability Framework and the UN SDGs. The table below shows how our material and emerging topics correspond to our focus areas and the relevant SDGs, and where we have caused or contributed to the impact through our business relationships. Collaboration and responsible business practices can bring about positive changes in the industry and society. Frasers Property engages with globally recognised organisations to take universal actions that push sustainability deeper into our corporate DNA and demonstrate responsibility to our stakeholders. As our leaders are committed to respond to global challenges to advance the world’s sustainability agenda, we have endorsed and participated in the following initiatives: • United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) • United Nations Women Empowerment Principles (UNWEP) • Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) • Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) • Paris Agreement of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) • Tripartite Guidelines on Fair Employment Practices (TAFEP) • Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment of the World Green Building Council (WGBC) • Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) • Climate Change Commitment of the Better Buildings Partnership (BBP) Sustainability Pillars Focus Areas Risk-based Management What it Means to Frasers Property To future-proof our business, it is integral to comprehensively assess environment, health and safety and social risks associated with our business.

We recognise this implication and proactively manage our energy consumption and carbon footprint in our building operations. Water is a scarce resource. We strive to conserve water whenever possible to reduce unnecessary usage and wastage. We encourage the efficient use and management of resources to curb waste generation. Our impact extends beyond our operations. We are aware of our role in influencing our supply chain to create sustainable value and encourage them to consider environmental, social and governance issues in their own businesses. We acknowledge the importance of biodiversity and seek to conserve and enhance nature through responsible development. We promote the social inclusion of all, irrespective of age, gender, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion or status. A progressive leadership team and a well-developed workforce empowered to innovate and equipped with future skills are central to our success. We believe promoting the health and well-being of our stakeholders would lead to increased productivity and work satisfaction and reduced workplace risks associated with safety. This took even greater prominence with the impact of COVID-19. We strive to create significant positive impact in the communities we operate in. We endeavour to run a business that responds to our communities’ needs.

Contents 1 3 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D ACTING PROGRESSIVELY To ensure the independence of the internal audit function, our Group Internal Audit Head reports directly to the Chairman of the Audit Committee. Independent internal audits are designed to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes. For further details, please refer to pages 181-214 on the Corporate Governance Report. In FY20, there were: • Seven whistle-blowing cases reported, out of which two were substantiated and one is still under investigation. • One substantiated fraud case identified within the whistle-blowing cases. • No incident of non-compliance with regulations and industry codes concerning marketing communications. • No incident of environmental and health and safety breaches at our development sites in Singapore, Australia, the UK, China and Vietnam. Our objective is to take progressive steps to minimise non- compliance incidents and breaches and work together with stakeholders to ensure appropriate precautions are taken throughout our value chain. This year, we continue to enhance our business continuity management (BCM) capability. The Group Crisis Management Plan is enhanced to ensure we are well prepared for any business disruptions and interruption, and that our operations, assets and people are protected. The BCM program is rolled out to the business units according to the programme roadmap, overseen by our BCM Committee comprising the key heads of departments and business units. Business continuity exercises are carried out at least annually to prepare ourselves against unexpected crisis. RESPONSIBLE INVESTMENT Responsible investment is an important focus area for Frasers Property. It defines how we put our capital to work while incorporating environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in decision-making to achieve the Group’s sustainability objectives. Similar to the driving forces advocated by the Principles for Responsible Investment, we believe that ESG factors can influence our return on investment, while meeting growing client demand and stricter regulations on ESG. We invest responsibly through two overarching approaches: improving our existing asset portfolio’s ESG performance, and integrating ESG aspects when investing and financing new properties and development projects. Growing Our Green Portfolio One of the strategies we adopt is to green our portfolio of assets with environmentally efficient infrastructure and facilities. We consider greener options at the onset of design and construction of new buildings, and progressively upgrade and retrofit our existing buildings. To be universally recognised, our green buildings undergo credible and relevant third-party certification schemes. Since our first green-certified building in 2005, we have continued to develop and own more than 200 green- certified buildings in Singapore, Australia, Thailand, Europe and the UK. Our goal is to certify 80% of our owned and managed assets by 2024, and to certify all new development projects by 2021. In Singapore, we have certified 35 properties and projects under the Building & Construction Authority (BCA) Green Mark scheme. Six of our managed commercial and retail properties – namely Causeway Point, Tiong Bahru Plaza, White Sands, Century Square, Alexandra Point and Frasers Tower — have been certified to the highest Green Mark Platinum level. We have also been continuously improving our existing portfolio, which saw Cross Street Exchange attain Green Mark GoldPLUS from Green Mark Gold after a series of upgrading works during the year. In Australia, 137 properties and projects have received Green Star certification from the Green Building Council Australia (GBCA) since 2011. We are the largest portfolio owner of Industrial Green Star properties with 4-Star Frasers Tower • Singapore A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 3 9 Green Star Performance portfolio certification. Some of the key initiatives that led to this performance include energy and water usage sub-metering and monitoring, data management, indoor air quality testing, as well as completing a climate resilience assessment across the portfolio. We are also committed to developing new industrial properties in Australia to a minimum 5-Star Green Star rating. Among our retail projects in Australia, Ed.Square was awarded 6-Star Green Star Communities this year, while Burwood Brickworks, Eastern Creek Quarter and Ed.Square Centre are on track to achieving 6-Star Green Star in the coming year. In Europe, our industrial portfolio consists of five German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB)-certified and 17 Green Star-certified properties in Germany, along with two Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM)-certified and three Green Star-certified properties in the Netherlands. Our new Frasers Property Industrial’s Europe office located in Amsterdam is certified to BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating. In the UK, we are committed to achieve a minimum BREEAM rating of ‘Very Good’ for all new developments and major refurbishments. Currently, 19 buildings in our UK business parks are BREEAM-certified, including two buildings which received an ‘Excellent’ In Use rating. In Thailand, six industrial properties are LEED- or EDGE- certified. Most recently, The PARQ, a project that we manage in Bangkok, obtained WELL pre-certification at Gold level and is aiming to achieve LEED certification. At Frasers Logistics Center Bangplee, Thailand, we recently completed the Omnichannel Distribution Center, which meets the LEED-certified requirements. In Vietnam, Melinh Point, an existing office building completed in 1999, is undergoing an asset enhancement initiative with the aim to become the country’s first operational building to achieve BCA Green Mark Platinum certification.

New developments are expected to deliver more purpose than ever, as places where communities can live in and thrive, and make a positive contribution to the environment. Recognising this, Frasers Property is transforming the way we design large-scale masterplan developments to shape the cities of the 21st century. Leveraging our expertise, we are setting new standards for sustainable and liveable communities of the future. One Bangkok in Thailand is an example of how we pushed the boundaries of design, quality, connectivity and sustainability in a vibrant lifestyle destination. The district is built on people-centric principles, with a strong emphasis on wellness, sustainability and smart technology with the aim of improving efficiency, productivity, and occupant well-being at the workplace. Similarly, Macquarie Exchange in Sydney, Australia, aims to be a pedestrian-focused development that offers an activated retail and amenity-rich destination for building occupants. The development was designed to go beyond minimum compliance standards for sustainability and environmental efficiency, including providing 100% carbon-neutral energy to all buildings within the Macquarie Park area. Built Environment Awards As a testament to its building excellence, Frasers Property won 24 awards at the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards (Singapore) 2019 including Best Commercial Green Development, Best Office Development, Best Mixed-Use Development for Frasers Tower; and Special Recognition awards for Frasers Property Singapore’s efforts in Sustainable Development, Design and Construction and Corporate Social Responsibility. In addition, Frasers Tower has also been recognised in the Asean Energy Awards 2020 as the second runner-up for the energy-efficient building category. It is the only building from Singapore to be among the top three in this awards category. Our people were also recognised for their passion for sustainability and excellence during the year. Four employees from the Group’s sustainability team in Australia clinched the inaugural Green Star Champions award launched by the GBCA in 2020. The award honoured Paolo Bevilacqua, Andrew Thai, Rory Martin and Marine Calmettes for their vision, passion and commitment to deliver a more sustainable built environment through the GBCA Green Star certification programme. In addition, our Living Building Challenge Manager at Burwood Brickworks, Stephen Choi, received the Australian Institute of Architects 2020 award for his dedication and advocacy for a better built form world. More specifically, he was credited for his positive impact and tireless dedication at Burwood Brickworks, which is in the process of achieving the Living Building Challenge® certification. One Bangkok: Fully Integrated, Sustainable District This fully integrated district in prime central Bangkok aims to be the first LEED-Neighbourhood Development Platinum development in Thailand, with towers built to LEED and WELL Platinum standards. It is also first to be powered by the country’s first urban district cooling and power distribution business. Frasers Property Holdings Thailand had joined three partners to develop, own and operate this business to supply One Bangkok with sustainable cooling and power.

Tapping the green loan market is not only an integral part of our capital management strategy, but a natural extension of our business focus on sustainability, and we intend to keep adding to Frasers Property’s track record of raising green financing. LOO CHOO LEONG Group Chief Financial Officer Promoting Sustainable Finance Frasers Property views sustainable financing as an important tool to align our business with corporate responsibility objectives. We actively pursue sustainable finance for our asset portfolio, wherever possible, with a goal to finance the majority of our sustainable asset portfolios with green and sustainable financing by 2024. In FY20 alone, we secured seven green and sustainability- linked loans totalling approximately $1 billion. This included a green loan of $350 million secured under the Loan Market Association and Asia Pacific Loan Market Association Green Loan Principles for the financing of our upcoming Fernvale Lane development, Singapore’s first green loan secured for an executive condominium. The development is targeted to obtain BCA Green Mark GoldPLUS certification. To date, the Group, including its subsidiaries and associated entities, has secured 12 green and sustainability-linked loans totalling about $4 billion, which is approximately 24% of our net borrowings. One of our syndicated loans – a A$750 million dual-tranche term loan secured in July 2019 – was crowned the Best Green Loan for Real Estate at The Asset’s Triple A Sustainable Capital Markets Regional Awards 2019 for its innovative pricing structure. Out of the A$750 million loan, A$500 million is a green tranche that had a reducing interest margin when the relevant sustainability benchmark, GRESB, continues to be met. In 2020, Frasers Property Australia launched a Sustainability Finance Framework to enable the growth of green loans, bonds and financial models anchored to its performance on key sustainability metrics. The framework is aligned to the Green Bond Principles 2018, Sustainability Bond Guidelines 2018 and Sustainability- linked Bond Guidelines 2020 by the International Capital Market Association, and Green Loan Principles 2018 and Sustainability-Linked Loan Principles 2019 by the Loan Market Association. Designed to provide overarching criteria and guidelines on managing the proceeds, the framework will support our efforts to enter into multiple sustainable finance transactions.

RESILIENT PROPERTIES Both climate science and the evidence from climate change-related events have clearly shown the need for businesses to identify, understand and manage climate risks within their operations. Anecdotally, investors are also increasingly climate-conscious, prioritising climate resilience in their investment decision-making. If not mitigated at an early stage with conscious planning, climate risk will affect a business portfolio valuation and financial standing in the long term. To make informed decisions in all stages of our value chain, we have started the process of assessing the climate risks to our business in a phased approach. Our goal is to carry out climate risk assessments and implement asset-level adaptation and mitigation plans for the entire business portfolio by 2024. Our climate-related disclosures are aligned to the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), as summarised in the following table. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 4 3 Key Aspect Where we are today Governance • Our Board of Directors provides oversight on broader sustainability trends, risks and opportunities to connect sustainability with corporate purpose and strategy of the Group. Strategy • Our management, through the Sustainability Steering Committee, monitors the Group’s sustainability performance against key material topics. • The Global Sustainability Taskforce and Project Management Office carry out detailed climate risk assessment and develop resilience plans. • Our initial assessment identified physical and transition risks as most significant to our business. The impact of climate change and regulatory changes would lead to increased costs, especially in operations, maintenance and procurement of materials. • We determine opportunities, from the identified risks, to create greater value for our existing portfolio and new projects. We integrate innovative and smart solutions into our properties to improve efficiencies and develop first-in-market products for our customers. Furthermore, we are able to tap into new sources of funding from financial institutions. Risk Management • We developed our Sustainability Framework in 2018. It sets out the Group’s 13 sustainability focus areas through to 2030, of which ‘Resilient Properties’ is one of the focus areas. • We implemented an Environmental, Health & Safety Policy and an Environmental, Health & Safety Management System aligned to ISO14001 standard in key operating regions. • We announced the Group’s five priority focus areas in FY20 and set tangible goals for each. This includes the aspiration of sustainable financing of our asset portfolio by FY24. • We started a global process of identifying risks and opportunities for our businesses at the asset-level. We plan to use the results to inform our business decision-making in the coming year. • We included climate change issues in our environmental risk identification and started assessing environmental impact for any risk event. Priorities in 2021-2022 • Continue to strengthen and improve governance over sustainability and climate risk. • Develop a carbon roadmap towards net-zero carbon by 2050 aligned with Science Based Targets for all business units. • Develop a Group- level climate risk assessment disclosure and framework aligned with the TCFD. • Conduct climate- related training for the business units to implement the recommendations and targets identified from the assessment. Metrics and Targets • We have set climate-related targets as a Group to be net-zero carbon by 2050. All business units will complete climate risk assessments and commence implementation of asset-level climate risk adaptation and mitigation plans by 2024. • Frasers Property Australia had its GHG emissions reduction targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative in FY19. • We have been disclosing our energy, water and waste performance through our annual Sustainability Report since 2015. Our year-on-year energy intensity and Scope 2 GHG intensity from electricity consumption has decreased by 13.9% and 15.3% respectively in FY20. However, this is expected due to the impact of COVID-19 across all our business operations. • We generated a total of 4.4 GWh of renewable energy across our Singapore, Australia and Hospitality portfolios in FY20, equivalent to 3,655 tCO2e of avoided emissions. In the UK, we also procured 18.1 GWh of renewable energy, equivalent to a reduction of 4,224 tCO2e in Scope 2 emissions by our business parks. • We started collecting embodied carbon emissions data from material use in our Singapore residential projects from FY19. In FY20, Scope 3 GHG emissions arising from the production of construction materials for two projects amounted to 10,251 tCO2e. • We started collecting gas consumption data from our commercial and industrial properties in Australia and the UK, which totalled 19.2 GWh, equivalent to 3,535 tCO2e in FY20. Contents 1 4 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D ACTING PROGRESSIVELY Committing To Climate Action In FY20, Frasers Property UK signed the Better Buildings Partnership Climate Change Commitment, as one of the 33 UK commercial real estate owner signatories who are committed to best practice sustainability outcomes. This level of support demonstrates the UK real estate industry‘s fast-paced transition towards greater carbon reduction and a more proactive approach to carbon risks. As a signatory, we target to achieve net-zero carbon by 2050. To deliver on our target, Frasers Property UK is committed to complete climate risk assessments across all assets by 2022 and disclose the progress towards its net-zero carbon roadmap annually. Frasers Property UK is also committed to report the energy performance of its assets, and has been procuring 100% green electricity for its landlord-controlled areas and buildings within all of its business parks. For the fifth year running, Frasers Property Australia was re-certified as carbon-neutral under the Climate Active Carbon Neutral Standard. This year, a total of 7,143 tCO2e was offset from Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from corporate operations in Australia, including office, vehicles, employee travel and constructions operations. We intend to continuously improve our performance to further reduce overall emissions in Australia. To manage the climate and resilience concerns in Australia, a Resilience Policy and Framework is in place to embed resilience capabilities within Frasers Property Australia. Frasers Property Australia is committed to renew its climate risk assessments for its residential, retail, commercial and industrial portfolio in Australia, and develop Climate Adaptation Plans for all future developments to understand the impacts. Through the Climate Adaptation Plans, we can identify potential risks related to climate change for our properties. Each potential risk is assessed for likelihood and consequences under current conditions and projections in year 2030 and 2050. In one of our latest Climate Adaptation Plans commissioned for Horsley Park Industrial Estate, we identified 31 potential risks ranging from ‘low’ to ‘extreme’, with temperature, rainfall and extreme weather conditions being the key risks. The plan also recommended the specific design responses which are focused on ‘high’ and ‘extreme’ rated risks. A similar assessment was also conducted together with Frasers Property Industrial for 84 properties under the Resilience Policy and Framework. The 210 Building at Winnersh Triangle, Reading • United Kingdom INNOVATION As a business, we are fostering an innovation culture to future-ready our organisation to stay relevant to our stakeholders. We encourage innovation across our business through partnerships and organic innovation in our pursuit of positive and dynamic change. Design thinking is one of our key drivers for innovation. To date, we have introduced design thinking tools to over 200 employees. Across the Group, we have executed more than 15 projects ranging from customer experience, business strategies, and process efficiency via our design thinking approach. During the year, we started to look at the design of smart city services for facility management operational systems in our One Bangkok development. In addition, we continued our efforts to innovate and transform traditional processes to enhance the experiences of employees, tenants and customers, including adapting to their changing needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Digitalisation and Proptech Innovation Intelligent Building Platform In FY20, we launched an intelligent building platform at Frasers Tower in Singapore to provide our tenants with an effortless experience to engage the property’s services. The first-of-its-kind in Asia, this platform fulfils the Group’s vision of seamlessly connected building systems, workflows and communities. It also offers a contactless customer experience, which enhances the safety and wellness of the tenants and employees and allows for the remote monitoring of the building. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 4 5 To navigate the complex business landscape, we need to augment our views on investment and value creation. Our investment choices and strategies must move beyond the traditional business model to build competencies and capabilities to drive value creation that refine our existing portfolio for our stakeholders. UTEN LOHACHITPITAKS Group Chief Investment Officer In Singapore, Alexandra Technopark tested a mobile robot to augment security surveillance at the premises, in an effort to improve human resource efficiency. The robot patrolled the driveways and walkways of Alexandra Technopark around the clock. Mobile Conveniences During the year, our hospitality arm launched various digital technologies at Capri by Fraser at China Square, Singapore, to provide one-stop solutions to meet our guests’ needs. For example, Lola, our digital concierge chatbot, offers a variety of functions, such as providing hotel information, tools for exploring places of interests in Singapore, and a platform for hotel services. It is also integrated with our workflow management system for a more streamlined automated guest request experience. In Australia, the residential team developed a sales app designed for sales agents and external agents to facilitate the end-to-end sales process in real-time. Agents can view customer details and create opportunities through the app on the spot in addition to tracking existing opportunities. The app was well-received by our partner agents, with more than 100 agents having active accounts. In Thailand, our GOLD CARE app, an online feedback platform for homebuyers, is able to track the progress of feedback, provide updates on the residential developments and allow direct communications with the officers-in- charge. Since its launch in March 2020, customers have, on most occasions, given a four-star rating on customer service by the Golden Land team. Smart Industrial Buildings In Thailand, we are collaborating with our customer, F&N Dairies, to deliver a fully automated build-to-suit warehouse by 2021. The flagship project is tailored to meet F&N Dairies’ specific requirements with the use of innovative robot-based storage solution and Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems. This build-to-suit warehouse will enable optimal usage of floor space while enhancing operational efficiency, with the capacity to accommodate future business operational needs. Design thinking workshop for retail business in Thailand Frasers Property Thailand is also testing the use of an automated security clearance process for more than 2,000 vehicles at Frasers Property Logistics Park. The solution uses CCTV cameras powered by artificial intelligence and cloud-based machine learning to recognise licence plates, predict traffic density and calculate exhaust emissions. Resulting from the innovation, the park enhanced security, lowered manpower needs and reduced GHG emissions. The innovation would be rolled out to other industrial locations across Thailand in the next year. Innovating over the COVID-19 Pandemic Technology-enabled Health and Safety To protect the health and safety of our stakeholders over the pandemic, we turned to innovative solutions to ensure the highest standards of hygiene and cleanliness at our properties. In Singapore, we used photo plasma technology to augment our cleaning efforts at the malls and equipped new air handling units with ultraviolet (UV) lights to eradicate airborne bacteria and germs. Contents 1 4 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D ACTING PROGRESSIVELY We are realising a vision where building systems and workflows can be seamlessly connected in a centralised intelligent building platform and are focused on making the quality of every experience better for the entire workplace community, while adding value to our assets. SAMUEL TAN Group Chief Digital Officer We were also the first mall operator in Singapore to roll out UV-disinfecting autonomous mobile robots in collaboration with PBA Group. These Sunburst UV-Bots emit powerful ultraviolet-C rays which can eradicate viruses, both airborne as well as on surfaces. This has helped to supplement our team’s manual cleaning processes while increasing the frequency and intensity of cleaning, to prioritise the safety and well-being of our staff, tenants and shoppers. Using data from cameras, built-in sensors and software, the Sunburst UV-Bots can detect, navigate and adapt to changes in their environments, as well as map out and identify the most efficient routes. The Sunburst UV-Bots were rolled out to various retail malls in Singapore and to our commercial buildings in Thailand. E-Commerce Support for Tenants In Singapore, our tenants’ businesses were affected by the temporary closure of business activities during the Circuit Breaker period and safe-distancing measures. In April 2020, we leveraged our digital food and beverage concierge, Frasers Makan Master on the Frasers Experience app, to roll out a meal delivery service for our food and beverage tenants. This provided our tenants an additional avenue to offer meal delivery services for customers during the Circuit Breaker period, in addition to contactless pre-order, pay and collect options. We also subsidised delivery fees for orders made through Frasers Makan Master, and provided dining rebates for customers. The service, which was well received by shoppers with about 80% of Makan Master orders coming from repeat customers, supported tenant sales. Sunburst UV-Bots deployed at Northpoint City • Singapore A new e-commerce marketplace, Frasers eStore To further enhance our e-commerce offerings, Frasers Property Retail will be launching a new e-commerce marketplace, Frasers e-Store. Frasers e-Store aims to empower tenants to embrace digitalisation and unlock new growth opportunities, with a truly omnichannel retail experience. It will also provide a seamless store-to- door shopping experience, allowing shoppers to browse and purchase products from tenants across all 15 malls in Singapore with convenience and flexibility. An inaugural two-hour Facebook live-streaming commerce event called ‘Frasers Live’ was held in September 2020 to improve shopper engagement and to continue supporting our tenants’ sales. Business Agility and Adaptation When travel restrictions began to affect the tourism sector, Frasers Hospitality Australia made a rare business decision to bolster its occupancy rates. It partnered with Frasers Property Australia’s residential property management arm to make a range of hotel rooms available to the residential rental market at conventional market rates, with a high level of flexibility. This innovative solution was an outcome of our DASH ‘bottom-up’ innovation challenge to help our Australian hospitality business respond positively to the reduced demand for hotel offerings due to the pandemic. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 4 7 CONSUMING RESPONSIBLY Buildings account for approximately 39% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions, according to the World Green Building Council. Of this, 28% comes from operational assets, and another 11% comes from embodied carbon through the production of building materials. As a major multi-national real estate company, we have a responsibility to seek reductions in our energy consumption and carbon emissions, as well as water consumption and waste generation, to play our part in fighting climate change and environmental degradation.

In this unique business model, Real Utilities rents roof space from building owners to install and operate solar panels, batteries and biodiesel generators, selling the energy generated to home owners and tenants. The business model is adopted at some our properties, such as Burwood Brickworks Shopping Centre, Eastern Creek Quarter and Ed.Square Town Centre, and is now venturing into the industrial sector. Tenant Partnerships Besides enhancing our properties, we also work with our customers to reduce their carbon footprint, such as offering our expertise to our Australian tenants to calculate their emissions for offsets purchase and including a Real Utilities assessment in every investment proposal for our retail and residential projects. In 2019, Frasers Property Australia and DHL partnered to deliver one of the first carbon-neutral industrial buildings, certified under the National Carbon Offset Standard (now known as the Climate Active Carbon Neutral Standard). The building achieved a 4-Star Green Star rating using a combination of energy-efficiency measures, including LED lighting upgrades and the installation of a 200 kW solar PV system. Emissions from the property were offset through the Qantas’ Future Planet programme. We also expanded our reporting scope to cover gas and corporate office consumption. Gas consumption in our Australia commercial and retail and UK business park portfolios amounted to 2.9 and 9.4 GWh respectively, equivalent to 528 and 1,731 tCO2e of Scope 1 emissions. Our corporate offices1 consumed an estimated of 1.3 GWh of electricity, equivalent to 844 tCO2e of Scope 2 emissions during the year. Separately, we started collecting industrial tenant data in Australia. Our tenants consumed an estimated 92.9 GWh of electricity, equivalent to 79,065 tCO2e of Scope 3 emissions. Gas consumption amounted to 6.9 GWh in FY20, equivalent to 1,276 tCO2e of Scope 3 emissions. Towards a Net-Zero Carbon Future Energy Efficiency The Group’s portfolio consists of an array of green properties designed with energy-efficient performance in mind. In Singapore, many of our properties are designed or upgraded to achieve BCA Green Mark certifications. For example, Green Mark Platinum-certified Century Square is fitted with high-efficiency chiller plant, air distribution systems, LED lightings and extensive use of green-labeled sustainable building products. Our retail properties in Australia have also been designed to achieve a minimum of 20% base-building energy reduction against current building codes. Our recently completed The PARQ development in Bangkok, Thailand, achieves energy efficiency through a combination of passive design, energy-efficient equipment and smart lighting technology. Renewable Energy We also adopt power from renewable sources, with on-site solar panels installed in some of our properties. In FY20, an estimated 4.4 GWh of solar energy was generated for consumption at our properties in Singapore, Australia and our global hospitality properties, equivalent to 3,655 tCO₂e of avoided emissions. Additionally, we also procured 18.1 GWh of green energy for our UK business parks equivalent to 4,224 tCO₂e of avoided emissions. 1 Corporate offices located in Singapore, Australia, Thailand, China and Vietnam Solar panels at Ed.Square Town Centre, New South Wales • Australia Contents 1 5 0 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D CONSUMING RESPONSIBLY Staff Engagement We encourage our staff to join in our race to reduce carbon emissions through staff engagement activities. At our Environment Month in March 2020, we unveiled our multi- year commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. The multi-year campaign ‘Build to Zero’, kicked off with an Unplug Pledge in its inaugural year, a Group- wide challenge to unplug unused devices to reduce energy consumption. In addition, more than 200 properties worldwide participated in the Earth Hour movement by switching off their non-essential lighting. These activities collectively raised the awareness of sustainability within the Group and promoted more progressive actions in the future. In Thailand, we organised an ESG Day to engage our employees through various activities such as games and talks as well as the sharing of the Group’s sustainability direction and progress.

To get there, we need to keep investigating different ways to do things. As our cities grow, we have an obligation and an opportunity to embrace building practices that deliver healthy, resilient and positive places for people and the natural environment. ROD FEHRING Executive Chairman, Frasers Property Australia, Frasers Property Industrial, and Frasers Property UK WATER In 2019, the World Economic Forum listed water scarcity as one of the leading challenges for sustainable development. These challenges are expected to intensify due to droughts and other climate-change-related events in many countries, including the locations where we operate. We continue to commit to optimising our water usage and enhancing our assets towards becoming water-resilient in the future. In FY20, we set a target for our buildings to reduce their indoor water demand by 15% compared to a standard building within each country’s jurisdiction. A minimum water efficiency standard was developed to support the business in minimising water consumption for all new developments. We have further committed to a 20% reduction in water intensity for our Singapore retail and commercial assets from 2015 by 2030. The Group’s total water consumption decreased by 11.2% year-on-year due to reduced usage of water and air-conditioning systems by our customers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Correspondingly, water intensity decreased by 18.4% to 1.07 m3/m2 during the year. We started collecting water consumption data in our corporate offices1, which amounted to 7,969 m3 in FY20. We also started collecting water consumption from our Australian industrial properties this year, which totalled 230,427 m3 for FY20. and soil conditions. This pilot is expected to reduce annual water consumption by up to 60%. In Singapore, most of our malls have received the Water Efficient Building certification from the Public Utilities Board through the adoption of water-efficient measures. Additional initiatives include condensate recycling for irrigation in Tiong Bahru Plaza, replacement of pantry basin taps to PUB WELS rated (Excellent) self-closing taps in Northpoint City and Century Square, and installation of automatic meters in the common areas of Robertson Walk.

Contents 1 5 2 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D CONSUMING RESPONSIBLY WASTE According to the UN Environment Programme, the world generates an estimated 11.2 billion tonnes of solid waste annually, including organic waste that decays and contributes to 5% of global GHG emissions. The increasing volume and complexity of this waste is posing serious threats to ecosystems and human health. In FY20, we generated a total of 25,436 tonnes of non- hazardous waste from our Singapore, Australia, China, Vietnam and the UK properties. Our waste intensity decreased by 12.2 % to 17.0 kg/m2 due to the impact of COVID-19. We also collected a total of 2,882 tonnes of waste for recycling in our Singapore, Australia, China, Vietnam and the UK properties, amounting to a 11.3% recycling rate. Our waste generated was disposed of in accordance with local regulations by our contractors, including sending non-recyclable waste to landfills in Australia and Vietnam, and to waste-to-energy plants in Singapore, China and the UK.

We encourage our staff, properties and tenants to adopt the 3Rs – reduce, reuse and recycle – to ensure the prudent use of resources and to divert waste from landfills and incineration. We place recycling bins in our properties, where possible. We also engage with tenants and customers regularly through events and communications focused on the importance of the 3Rs. Single-use Plastic We have been an advocate of replacing single-use plastics across our global hospitality operations since FY19. Here, we identified amenities and packaging in our food and beverage offerings, apartments and bathrooms and sought to replace them with alternative or biodegradable materials. We are continuing this exercise across all our existing and newly opened properties across Europe, North Asia and Asia Pacific. Over 90% of Frasers Hospitality-managed assets have embarked on phasing out single-use plastics globally. Paper In our corporate offices, employees are encouraged to reduce paper by using e-signatures and configuring all printers to print double-sided by default. In FY20, the total paper used in our Singapore, Australia and Thailand corporate offices was approximately 20,400 kg, of which 10,830 kg were sent for recycling. This year, we recorded more than a 16% drop in paper use mainly due to work- from-home measures over the COVID-19 pandemic. Across our hospitality properties, we started the Go-Paperless initiative four years ago. This initiative replaced traditional processes with Paperless Check-in, Tokenisation and EcoSign concepts to cut down the use of paper, resulting in paper reductions of between 10% and 40% from the finance, front office and reservation departments in various properties. Organic Waste Monthly landscaping processes in our Thailand properties generate a significant amount of organic waste. In FY20, we embarked on two projects to divert and repurpose the organic waste into useful items. The first project saw the collection of weed waste from our factories to be converted into organic fertiliser through composting. These fertilisers would be used for tree planting activities in the logistics parks, with a portion sent to local farmers collaborating in this project. The second project was conducted at Rojana Industrial Park, where grass clippings from monthly landscaping maintenance were diverted as feed to a cattle and buffalo farm located in the Ayutthaya province. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 5 3 Collection of weed waste from our factories to be Grass clippings diversion as feed for cattle and buffalo farms • Thailand converted into organic fertiliser • Thailand In the UK, we implemented a large organic composter for use by all occupiers at Farnborough Business Park. In Australia, we introduced organic waste recycling in our Rhodes Corporate Park. The waste being recycled include landscape waste from the gardens and food waste from the three cafes within the property. Since August 2019, more than 40 tonnes of organic waste have been collected from the property for recycling. Recycling Partners We partner with other organisations to recycle specific materials such as electronic waste, clothes, used soap bars, glass and plastic bottles. Special recycling bins and facilities are placed at convenient locations in our properties to encourage employees, tenants and customers to recycle these materials. These initiatives enable the collection of high-quality specific materials, separated from general recyclables, for special recycling efforts. In Singapore, we have long-standing partnerships with Starhub to collect electronic waste, and with Fraser and Neave to collect used plastic bottles and aluminium cans. These efforts led to the collection of 22,289 kg of e-waste and 364,318 bottles and cans in FY20. We also partnered with Greensquare Textile Recycling to collect textiles at Alexandra Technopark. In Thailand, we started a glass recycling programme in collaboration with ThaiBev. Recyclable glass collected from our properties are processed at ThaiBev’s recycling facility, with proceeds going towards charitable causes. Our hospitality properties in China were the first serviced residences to partner with Soap Cycling, the largest non- profit soap recycling organisation in Asia. Used bar soaps left behind by our guests at 10 properties in China are sanitised, re-made and sent to villages in need of proper sanitation. This reduces soap waste generated at our properties and improves the health outcomes of families Reverse Vending Machine at Northpoint City • Singapore in these villages. More than 2,000 used bar soaps were donated to Soap Cycling’s beneficiaries since the launch of the initiative in February 2020. At our business parks in the UK, we regularly have refurbishment works as tenants move into our properties. The refurbishment works involve the removal of old fit-out materials left behind by previous tenants, which could still be in good condition. We work together with our tenants to identify and donate the materials to local communities in need. During the year, we donated carpet tiles from Winnersh Triangle to a local primary school to enhance the school environment for the students. At Watchmoor Park, we donated old furniture from a cafe to the local football club for use during social and match day events. Awards In recognition of our efforts, our five commercial buildings in Australia ranked first in the Waste category in the NABERS Sustainable Portfolios Index 2020. In addition, Hougang Mall in Singapore clinched the 3R Merit Award from Singapore’s National Environment Agency. Contents 1 5 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D CONSUMING RESPONSIBLY MATERIALS AND SUPPLY CHAIN Frasers Property engages a diverse group of suppliers globally when sourcing for materials and services essential to our business. It is key that our suppliers adhere to certain environmental, social and governance expectations and operate in a manner consistent with Frasers Property’s commitments. We believe that a partnership-based approach in four broad areas — namely environmental management; human rights and labour management; health, safety and well-being; and business ethics and integrity — with our suppliers will drive dynamic transformation, strengthening our supply chain and the businesses within it. In Australia, we joined a consortium of developers to work with the Property Council of Australia to establish an industry-standard questionnaire and supplier reporting platform. This initiative aims to ease the process for our supply chain while improving the visibility of supply chain risks. The business is currently preparing a Modern Slavery Policy and Statement in response to the Modern Slavery Act that came into effect this year in Australia. Our UK business upholds a similar Modern Slavery Statement to reiterate our commitment to prevent human rights abuses and combat modern slavery and human trafficking across our operations. In Singapore, we started reporting our embodied carbon footprint from our development projects. We are conscious of the need to engage our principal contractors to reduce our embodied carbon emissions, which make up a significant portion of our carbon footprint. In FY20, we procured a total of 3,326 tonnes of steel, 586 tonnes of timber and 32,465 tonnes of concrete for all our residential development projects, amounting to a total Scope 3 embodied carbon content of 10,251 tCO₂e. Of the materials procured, 14 tonnes of steel and 1,456 tonnes of concrete were from recycled sources. Carbon emissions from electricity, gas and fuel used at these projects amounted to 105 tCO₂e. During the construction of Frasers Tower, our Grade-A office development in Singapore, we used green cement, recycled concrete aggregates and washed copper slag, which had lower embodied carbon content compared to conventional materials. We will continue to seek opportunities to use green materials in our future developments. We also engage and guide our tenants to make similar sustainable choices to improve the sustainability of our properties. From a materials and supply chain perspective, we encourage them to fit out their leased spaces with sustainable materials that generate less environmental footprint from production through to operations. In Singapore, we are working to roll out our green fit-out requirements for retail and commercial tenants. Within the requirements, tenants are encouraged to procure sustainable products and services . At Frasers Hospitality, we have rolled out a Global Procurement Supplier Conduct Guideline since 2017. The guideline provides an overarching standard of conduct for our suppliers relating to human rights, bribery and corruption, equal employment opportunities, sexual harassment and environmental management. Minnippi Quarter: First Net-Zero Carbon Homes in Australia Our masterplanned development, Minnippi Quarter, is the first in Australia to offer residential customers the choice to fully offset the embodied carbon associated with the construction of their homes. The funds from this initiative will be channelled towards forest regeneration in Humeburn, Queensland, and forest protection in Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe.

Read more Contents Wild Flower Area at Hillington Park, Glasgow • United Kingdom BIODIVERSITY Biodiversity and ecosystems are the foundation of the world that we live in, without which we would not have clean air, clean water and food. Biodiversity also supports recreation and leisure to enhance the well-being of people. Research has also shown that biodiversity benefits mental wellness positively. As a responsible real estate developer, we strive to conserve, regenerate and enhance the planet’s ecosystem. We aim to increase biodiversity for every new development, apart from abiding by the relevant local laws and regulations. In Australia, we support biodiversity and biophilia by making investments to offset the impact of our projects. Through the Living Future Habitat Exchange programme, we contributed funds to the purchase and perpetual protection of 25,000 m² of land in Lonco Vaca, Argentina. Frasers Property Australia also plans to develop a biodiversity strategy by 2021, aiming to leave every site ‘better than before’ by 2030. One of our projects in Australia, Burwood Brickworks, is a prime example of how a development can incorporate parklands, landscaped reserves, bioswales and urban agricultural spaces to enhance biodiversity. A 2,000 m² farm is situated at the rooftop of the mall, and 275 citrus trees produce fruits across the building’s northern façade. In the UK, we implemented initiatives to increase biodiversity within our business parks. At Hillington Park, we seeded wild flowers at an open area to attract bees and pollinating insects during the summer, while at Chineham Park, we began cultivating a green wall at one of the co-working spaces. At our Brookhaven development in Australia, we also introduced beehives to the estate back in 2018, which are now producing 180 kg of honey annually. In Thailand, our landscaping team started an initiative to cultivate bananas on a vacant land in Chachoengsao province as a means to increase biodiversity. The crops were cultivated in a chemical-free process using organic fertiliser produced from weeds in our projects. 1 5 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D FOCUSING ON PEOPLE People are at the heart of our business.

A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 5 7 DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION Frasers Property sees diversity and inclusion as integral parts of our culture and identity. We are building a culture where differences are valued and respected, knowing that such diversity brings us closer to the communities we serve. We strive to create workplaces where everyone feels empowered to bring their full, authentic selves to work. We are committed to retaining, developing and recruiting talented and motivated people who are passionate in sharing our goals. Together, they pool a broad range of skills, experiences and perspectives to fuel innovation, create value and help us achieve our ambition to be a world-class multi-national real estate company. Our Commitment Diversity at Frasers Property means being open-minded to the elements that make people similar or different from one another. These include their backgrounds, views, experiences, capabilities, values, beliefs, physical differences, ethnicity and culture, gender, age, thinking styles, preferences and behaviours. Inclusion is about our focus to remove any perceived or tangible barriers to becoming a part of our business, being treated fairly and respectfully and having equal access. We continue to practice an open appraisal system across the Group and review each employee’s performance annually. To demonstrate our commitment to these practices, we are a signatory to the Tripartite Alliance for Fair and Progressive Employment Practices in Singapore and a member of the Singapore National Employers Federation. At International Women’s Day in March 2020, we introduced the Group-wide Diversity & Inclusion Policy, which outlines our beliefs and actions to support a diverse workplace and how we assess our performance in delivering these actions. It also describes how we maintain an environment where employees can achieve their full potential. We aim to embed diversity and inclusion in our culture through employee engagement, training and education to raise employee awareness. We also reiterated our commitment to the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles to empower and advance women at the workplace. This commitment was made in response to the 10th Anniversary of the Women’s Empowerment Principles, a joint initiative of the UN Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women and the UN Global Compact. In Australia, we have been recognised as an Employer of Choice from the Workplace Gender Equality Agency. We adopt fair employment practices to ensure our people receive equal opportunities to drive employee morale and retention and to better connect with our employees. Frasers Pride Australia was launched in February 2020 as a network to support employees who identify as LGBTI, as part of a broader diversity and inclusion initiative.

Our workforce was gender-balanced at a ratio of 50:50, with 2,857 female employees and 2,807 male employees. Women representation in the senior management team1 increased by 1% to 38% and remained the same at 9% in the Board of Directors. The Group’s hiring rate2 of 15% is lower than the voluntary turnover rate3 of 18%. Compared to FY19, both our hiring and turnover rates decreased by 24 percentage points and 16 percentage points year-on-year respectively. This was mainly attributed to disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. In Singapore, the hiring and turnover rates were 1.7% and 1.5%, lower than annualised national labour hiring and turnover rates4. The hiring and turnover rates in Singapore fell to unprecedented lows as employees were less likely to leave during this period. This trend was observed across all industries in Singapore5.

We invest in learning and development programmes to equip our employees with the right skill sets and capabilities to build and empower a future-ready workforce. We have been boosting the adoption of design thinking as a mindset, a common language and approach towards creative problem-solving. This is how we want to build our organisational ‘muscle memory’ to better address the evolving needs of our customers and employees in a human-centric way. Grooming the Workforce of the Future Our Learning Academy and our in-house learning specialists play a critical role in identifying business- aligned learning interventions to equip employees with core capabilities. During the year, we dedicated 2% of our payroll cost to our employees’ learning and development. Our employees completed a total of 174,506 hours of training, with each employee completing an average of 40 training hours in 2020. This was on par with our goal of 40 average training hours per employee, faring 10% above FY19’s performance. Both female and male employees received 97,661 hours and 76,845 hours of training respectively. Following the introduction of the Group’s sustainability goals this year, we intend to roll out a global sustainability e-learning programme designed to facilitate the understanding of sustainability across the business. The e-learning aims to impart how sustainability is integrated into our business practices and decision-making processes to progress towards our goals. It also encourages employees to adopt sustainability practices in their daily work processes. Delivering Undisrupted Learning We want to embrace the Future of Work to improve the effectiveness of what we do. This means encouraging the right mindset shifts in how we work and equipping our employees with the right digital training tools and infrastructure. For example, through our Learning Academy, we actively curated and developed learning programmes centred on transferable and functional skills, with many of them aligned with the Future of Work. These learning programmes revolve around themes such as innovation, technology and digitalisation, sustainability and industry education. These programmes are available online — through virtual instructor-led training, webinars and self-paced e-learning — to provide wider accessibility across geographies. The Learning Academy also hosted a nine-day inaugural Learning Festival themed ‘Learning for the Future’ during the COVID-19 pandemic with over 40 virtual live sessions led by internal and external experts.

While complexity, customer-centricity and connectivity will remain key focus areas at the workplace, we need to understand the trends arising out of the current crisis that are defining the new normal. Agility, resilience and design thinking will be key future skills that we need to face an even faster churn of business models and industry disruption. CHIA KHONG SHOONG Group Chief Corporate Officer HEALTH AND WELL-BEING We can create positive outcomes by designing buildings that are human-centric, and places that inspire people. From the onset of design, Frasers Property takes into consideration air quality, environmental quality, thermal comfort, adequate lighting and safe materials. In addition, we proactively enhance the safety protocol and processes by adopting occupational health and safety management systems across our key operating properties. Our commercial and retail properties are certified to locally and internationally recognised safety standards. In Singapore, close to 90% of our commercial and retail properties are certified OHSAS 18001 and bizSAFE Star. In Australia, our residential, retail, commercial and industrial units continue to be certified in accordance with AS/NZS 4801, the standard for occupational health and safety adopted in Australia and New Zealand. Our safety commitment extends to our supply chain, where we actively seek to influence our business partners to work safely. To ensure continual improvement, we consistently monitor the safety of our employees and contractors working at our operating assets and development sites. In FY20, we reported no work-related fatalities. In our Singapore development projects, we had a lost-time injury rate and a severity rate of 0 and 19.71 respectively. In our Australia development projects, we had a lost-time injury rate of 2.9 and a severity rate of 38.2. Overall, our performance remained comparable to previous years, as a testament to the extensive health and safety initiatives implemented.

During the year, the HSE intranet was revamped to include our updated HSE policy, manual, process and risk standards in addition to other resources that empower employees to take charge of safety in the workplace. Prioritising Employees’ Well-being Health, safety and wellness remain key, not only in terms of measures but also workplace design, leadership and communications. What COVID-19 has taught is that it is a cornerstone of trust that stakeholders expect of us. Promoting the health and well-being of our stakeholders would lead to increased productivity and work satisfaction and fewer workplace injuries. Hence, we invest in health screenings, wellness events for our people. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we introduced new health and safety measures that complied with local regulatory requirements. For eligible full-time employees, we offer a comprehensive range of welfare benefits, such as insurance coverage, medical and dental benefits, maternity and parental leave and family care leave. Contract employees also enjoy similar benefits. We also designate every last Friday of the school semester as ‘Eat With Your Family Day’ in Singapore for employees to leave work early and spend quality time over dinner with their families. In FY20, 70 female employees and 31 male employees in Singapore and Australia took paid maternity and paternity leave respectively. A total of 89% of female and 97% male employees returned to work after completing their leave and remained employed with us 12 months after their return to work. We also comply with various social security policies legislated in every country where our staff work for a peaceful retirement. In Singapore and Australia, we make monthly contributions to every employee’s Central Provident Fund and pension fund accounts respectively. Promoting Health and Wellness Our annual Health and Safety Month in August, themed ‘Your Well-being. A Priority’, focused on empowering our employees to take charge of their personal well-being, especially in this current pandemic climate. A global virtual challenge was held to encourage employees to stay active by walking, running or cycling. The month also lined up weekly health and safety tips on home office ergonomics and digital device use. In line with this year’s wellness theme, ‘Be Fit, Uplifted and Nourished’, our corporate wellness team organised virtual workout sessions and high-intensity interval training to encourage our employees to remain active even when working from home. A series of talks on healthy eating, chiropractic care and self-massage was also implemented. In Singapore, Frasers Tower and Alexandra Technopark partnered with the Singapore Health Promotion Board to introduce a Healthy Workplace Ecosystems programme, aimed at integrating healthy living into the daily work lives of our tenants and employees. The programme included mass exercises and health education sessions. Alexandra Technopark was recognised with the Healthy Workplace Ecosystem Award at the Health Promotion Board’s Singapore Health Award 2019. In the UK, a Health and Well-being Framework was implemented across all commercial parks to deliver healthy outcomes for all occupiers. The Framework brings together five themes — air quality, active travel, nutritious food, outdoor spaces and events — to support well-being. Example targets included launching an active travel campaign on each park, undertaking air quality testing, and where needed, implementing action plans. Keeping Employees Mentally Resilient An Employee Assistance Programme was introduced in Singapore, Australia and the UK to support our employees with personal or work-related issues. A team of specialist counsellors are on hand to provide ‘in-the-moment’ professional and confidential assistance or counselling for our employees. A select group of human resource representatives have been trained on Emotional First-Aid to recognise and support mental wellness needs. To show our support towards mental well-being, Frasers Property Australia Foundation pledged to donate A$10 to Mental Health Australia for every promise made by our employees to remove the stigma against those seeking mental health and support. Our Singapore and Thailand offices dedicated the month of November to mindfulness. Workshops were held to raise awareness on the benefits of incorporating mindfulness at work and at home, supplemented by meditation and yoga classes, art and music therapy workshops. Health and Safety during the COVID-19 Pandemic Frasers Property responded swiftly to the pandemic to protect the health, well-being and safety of employees, tenants and communities that use our properties around the world. As our risk management practices had already prepared us for an epidemic situation, we were able to roll out various measures starting from January 2020 at our A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 6 3 Increased cleaning frequency and intensity at Fraser Suites Protecting our frontline staff at Samyan Mitrtown • Thailand Sydney • Australia commercial, industrial, retail and hospitality properties as well as our corporate offices. As the situation evolved, we implemented more extensive precautionary measures driven by the corporate office but customised and executed at the market level, according to local factors and complying with the relevant regulations. Implementing New Operational Practices The true frontline was at our malls, our hotels and serviced residences, our offices and business parks, and our industrial and logistics facilities. Across our properties, we introduced extensive measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Among these, we increased the frequency and intensity of cleaning at our properties and introduced temperature scanning, safe distancing and personal hygiene measures for our tenants and customers. In Singapore, we implemented SafeEntry protocols, added social distancing markers and signs and provided self-disinfecting sprays and hand sanitisers at main entrances and lift lobbies of our properties. We responded to orders by some governments to restrict or close down certain activities. These included the temporary closure of food and beverage outlets at our hotels in Sydney and Melbourne and the closure of hospitality properties in the UK and Germany. In Singapore, malls were open during the Circuit Breaker only for essential services, and restaurants were limited to takeaways and deliveries. Large-scale internal and external meetings and events were postponed or cancelled, and meeting formats were transformed with the support of telecommuting technologies. International and domestic travel was largely suspended, adhering strictly to local health and travel advisories. Employees who were symptomatic, or who had travelled recently, were placed on leave- of-absence or self-quarantine at Frasers Hospitality properties, where possible. As some teams prepared to return to the workplace, we introduced new measures to ensure their safety. In Thailand, we carried out weekly disinfection of the office and required all employees to observe strict safe distancing practices. In Australia, we produced a three- minute Return to Office Safety video for all employees to understand their expected behaviour upon return and provided each with a return-to-office pack which included a hand sanitiser and a stylus for use at high touch points. In Singapore, we continued to encourage remote working and team rotations. Caring for Our Front-liners Throughout the pandemic, we recognised the importance of protecting the health and safety of our frontline staff who interacted the most with the communities that used or visited our properties. We provided our frontline staff with care packs containing face masks, hand sanitisers and personal protective equipment, where required. Working Safely in the ‘New Normal’ Since the onset of COVID-19, we embraced large- scale remote working across all our offices worldwide, to minimise the risk of infection to our employees. Employees were at first segregated into teams to rotate between office working and remote working from their homes. As the pandemic evolved, full remote working became necessary for most teams, leaving behind skeletal staff in our offices to coordinate deliveries and handle essential functions. We now have flexible work arrangements being introduced. Protecting Our Contractors’ Welfare Our development contractors in Singapore were one of the groups most affected by COVID-19. We took steps to improve our contractors’ well-being by ensuring they complied with BCA’s COVID-Safe Worksite practices. This included implementing safe management measures, appointing Safe Management Officers, and segregating teams to reduce physical interaction and ensure safe distancing at worksites. Workers were required to stagger working hours and break times to reduce possible congregation at shared facilities. Contact tracing Contents 1 6 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D FOCUSING ON PEOPLE requirements, as well as health checks and protocols, were adopted. Most importantly, we rigorously enforced the basic requirements to ensure cleanliness and the wearing of masks at worksites. Assuring Customers of Safety and Hygiene Frasers Hospitality was the first hospitality brand to be awarded the International Serviced Accommodation Accreditation Process (ISAAP) Compliance Accreditation by the Association of Serviced Apartment Providers, offering assurance to customers that our properties achieved the stringent ISAAP Global Standard for safety and service, including meeting COVID-19 sanitisation requirements. Properties across the Frasers Hospitality portfolio that experienced closures re-opened with a #FraserCares commitment, dedicated to ensuring the health, safety and well-being of guests and staff. The commitment outlined its new cleaning regime, safe distancing protocols and redefined operational standards according to local legislations. Frasers Hospitality has engaged with SGS, the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing, and certification company, as part of its continuous effort to meet the highest international health and safety standards. All 14 retail assets in Singapore successfully passed the SG Clean audit, recognising the high standards of hygiene maintained at our premises, and our efforts to safeguard public health within our malls. About 80% of our tenants surveyed were satisfied with the cleanliness of the malls, especially in areas such as lifts, escalators and common areas. COMMUNITY CONNECTEDNESS A successful real estate development goes beyond its design and layout. It also considers the community planning and transformation to bring people together for long-term health and sustainability. We aim to create places for social connectedness and community resilience to grow organically. We strive to build communities that thrive as places to live, work and play, working in partnership with local communities and non-profit organisations. In FY20, we established a new Community Investment Framework, which brings together priorities and ambitions of Frasers Property, key partner organisations and local communities where we operate. To make valuable contributions as community partners, we seek meaningful long-term relationships that respect local cultures and create lasting benefits. We use a data- driven approach to understand the requirements of each community and the opportunities where we can make a positive contribution. Our projects are designed and implemented with the participation of local community representatives. Three focus areas – environment, Temperature taking at Waterway Point • Singapore health and education – have been our targets of community investment where we can make the greatest transformative impact in the communities. Transforming Developments into Vibrant Communities Our project developments globally have become vibrant communities. This was the result of thorough curation processes and countless iterations of improvement at the design, construction and operations stages, involving various stakeholders in collaboration and partnership. In Thailand, One Bangkok is set to be a fully integrated district in the heart of the city with a development philosophy focused on people-centric principles, environmental sustainability and smart-city living. When completed, the development will create a new way of urban living in Bangkok. Another project in Bangkok completed recently, The PARQ, is designed with wellness in mind. Themed ‘Life Well Balanced’, the development reconnects busy urban lives with nature through biophilic design principles that satisfy the inherent human need to embrace natural elements including natural light, healthy air, natural materials and green spaces. Separately, we initiated exhaust gas measurement for vehicles that enter some of our logistics parks in Thailand to monitor and improve the air quality for the health and well-being of the tenants and employees. In Singapore, Frasers Tower, a Grade-A office development, is uniquely designed with four community zones featuring lush greenery and a relaxing environment for tenants to connect and collaborate. In addition, our community managers at Frasers Tower and Alexandra Technopark further enhance our tenants’ experience with engagement activities throughout the year. In Australia, we place a dedicated community development team in each masterplan development to work with residents and tenants and to bring the community together through social gatherings and programmes. These teams put up community A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 6 5 development plans that set out a series of key objectives to enhance community connectedness and promote active, healthy lifestyles. Ensuring Customer Satisfaction To maintain our industry leadership, we need to be mindful of what makes our customers satisfied with our products and services. Staying up to date with these insights would shape our unique value proposition in each market. To do this, we carry out annual surveys to gauge the satisfaction of our customers and tenants. From the insights gained, we seek to rectify any immediate issues and to enhance our future offerings. This year, our office tenants’ satisfaction level in Singapore has remained high at 96.6%, compared to 98% in FY19. The number of respondents who rated ‘Satisfied to Very Satisfied’ increased from 71% in 2019 to 82% in 2020. Across our managed serviced apartment portfolio, we collected a total of 54,967 guest reviews and ratings this year. The number of responses was impacted by COVID-19 due to the temporary closure of some properties. Despite that, we managed to achieve comparably positive reviews, popularity scores and performance scores. In FY20, we captured our homebuyers’ experience in Singapore using a digital platform. Our homebuyers’ live-in experience averaged 71% as compared to 72% a year ago. There was no home collection experience survey done this year as no new projects were being completed. The surveys showed that our homebuyers appreciated their experience with us throughout the process of owning a home. From the feedback gathered, we recognised that there was room for improvement, particularly in estate management services and security management.

We contribute to various charitable causes with particular focus on health, education, environment and community. In FY20, Frasers Property contributed over $1 million in monetary and in-kind support, with over 6,000 hours of staff volunteerism through over 250 community investment activities. Health Throughout the year, we supported the Singapore Health Promotion Board’s efforts to host events, talks and campaigns by sponsoring venues at our retail properties. One of the activities, ‘Eat, Drink, Shop Healthy Campaign’ which was held in November 2019 at Anchorpoint, encouraged healthy lifestyle habits among shoppers. We provided complimentary use of our mall atrium and advertising spaces, and promoted the event through social media. We also provided vouchers to encourage Contents 1 6 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D FOCUSING ON PEOPLE participation in the campaign. Additionally, we provided mall spaces across different properties for the Health Promotion Board to host regular free workout classes. In Australia, our Frasers Property Australia Foundation continued to sponsor Smiling Mind, a non-profit organisation that focuses on mental health and well- being. The Smiling Mind School Program, an evidence- based approach to support student mental health and well-being, aims to reach out to 90 schools. The programme has reached out to 61 schools with participation from 49,330 students and 2,120 teachers. Over 1,000 books collected and donated by Frasers Property China and Frasers Hospitality In the UK, our business parks conducted regular workout classes to encourage tenants to maintain an active lifestyle. Classes such as pilates, yoga and bootcamps were held on a weekly basis at the properties. During the social distancing period, classes were conducted virtually to ensure that tenants remained active while at home. At Golden Land, we worked with an architectural firm to design an award-winning multi-sensory classroom for the visually impaired students in Pattaya. The classroom design is aligned with the pre-Braille curricula to promote interactive learning to equip the students with fundamental skills required for their daily lives. Education Our annual Frasers Property Study Award in Singapore rewarded a total of 212 children for their excellent academic achievements this year, the highest since the award was established in 2014. Over the years, the Study Award criteria has progressed to become more inclusive, benefiting more of our employees’ children. ln Australia, we funded a A$60,000 Master of Architecture scholarship at Western Sydney University to encourage women’s participation in architecture. The first recipient of the scholarship was announced in February 2020. Frasers Property Australia received the prestigious Elizabeth Broderick Workforce Flexibility Award and the Dame Quentin Bryce Gender Equity Award, which recognised outstanding best practice people and culture initiatives from the Australian HR Institute. In Thailand, we supported the dreams of aspiring astronauts and budding footballers. In the ‘Discover Thailand’s Astronauts Scholarship Program 2019, Episode 3’, we sponsored four students with the opportunity to gain first-hand experience in advanced aviation and space technology at the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, USA. Our One Bangkok team conducted the inaugural One Bangkok Youth Football Camp 2019, which aimed to create an avenue for youths to hone their sports skills and develop sportsmanship. In a ground-up initiative, the Frasers Property Thailand Volunteer Club members came together to donate computers and raise lunch funds for students at the Wat Bang Hua Sua School in the Samut Prakan Province in Thailand. The team also prepared donations to be given to monks at the temple near the school. In China, we contributed to improve reading habits among children living in rural regions. Frasers Property China and Frasers Hospitality China worked with Stars Youth Development Center, a non-profit educational organisation based in Guangzhou, to collect over 1,000 books through donations from employees and serviced residence guests. The books went to the libraries of two rural primary schools, benefitting about 800 students. We further donated RMB150,000 to refurbish a rural school’s library to inculcate good reading habits among children. Environment In late 2019 to early 2020, Australia experienced devastating bushfires across the country, which wiped out millions of hectares of lands and animals. We raised A$25,700 for the Salvation Army Appeal through donations from employees, which were matched by the Frasers Property Australia Foundation. The funds were used to provide financial assistance and emotional well- being and support services, to those affected. To commemorate Clean Up Australia Day, 20 colleagues volunteered to work with the Friends of Lane Cove National Park. The exercise removed over 1,000 tree guards and litter and cleared out land for tree planting. In Thailand, Frasers Property Thailand’s Love Tree & Save the World Club organised a mangrove reforestation programme at Ban Laem Chabang Community located in Chonburi. The members spent time to plant mangrove trees to combat climate change while raising awareness on the importance of trees as a key carbon sequester. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 6 7 Classroom makeover for Redemptorist School for the Blind, Pattaya • Thailand Frasers Property Australia volunteers participating in Clean Up Australia Day Community We continued to partner with The Foodbank Singapore to collect and donate foodstuff to communities with food security issues from our commercial and retail properties. In FY20, we accumulated a total of 6,389 kg of foodstuff for donation. We also worked with The Foodbank Singapore to organise a food collection drive that aimed to reduce food waste across 11 of our retail properties. Meeting Community Needs over the COVID-19 Pandemic We actively reached out to the communities and provided ongoing relief efforts through various initiatives, from sponsoring personal protective equipment and organising blood donation drives, to contributing donations to help migrant workers, medical personnel and vulnerable groups. In Malaysia, our hospitality team ran a food drive with the support of their staff and fellow hoteliers. The event successfully delivered over 800 free meals to families affected by flash floods as well as the needy in care centres, nursing homes, orphanages and other non- governmental organisations. In the UK, we raised over £20,000 (including £10,000 from Frasers Property UK) through the Do Something Good Campaign for FareShare, a national network of charitable food redistributors, to provide 80,000 meals to vulnerable people. To achieve the target, the campaign required our team to collectively cover over 2,500 kilometres between all its UK offices and assets by setting personal challenges to run, walk, cycle and spin. Malmaison and Hotel du Vin in the UK donated hotel rooms worth over £5,000 for auction to Charity Escapes. The money raised was channelled towards supporting partners of Charity Escapes across the UK. To show our support for women and diversity, Frasers Property Australia sponsored the Urban Development Institute of Australia & Frasers Property Women in Leadership Awards. The awards acknowledge and promote the positive contribution of women to the development industry in Australia. In addition, the Australian team continued to work on the Reconciliation Action Plan, which started in 2018, to engage indigenous Australians in our business operations. Medical and Personal Protective Equipment In Singapore, we were among the first Singapore-based companies to support Razer’s plan to set up the country’s first fully automated mask production and packing line. We committed US$50,000 upfront to purchase the initial shipments to support Razer’s innovative action to convert its manufacturing lines to produce masks at the height of the pandemic. We distributed these masks, along with face shields, to tenants and frontline staff across 15 of our malls. In addition, we leveraged our strategic locations in the heartlands to support Razer’s initiative to deploy mask-vending machines across Singapore, for the redemption of free surgical masks conveniently at our malls. Frasers Property Thailand donated THB399,000 to the Thai Subconstructing Promotion Association in its efforts to support medical personnel treating COVID-19 patients. The donation went towards producing personal protective equipment and powered air-purifying respirators, distributed to local hospitals. Our team at Fraser Suites Sukhumvit helped overcome the shortage of masks in the community by making reusable masks using clean linen and distributing them to ‘tuk tuk’ drivers around the property. Frasers Property Vietnam donated 20 thermal cameras worth over VND1 billion to the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee of Ho Chi Minh City. These cameras were deployed at high-traffic areas such as hospitals, medical centres, television stations, museums, and dormitories of universities. Contents 1 6 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D FOCUSING ON PEOPLE Thanapol Sirithanachai, Country CEO of Frasers Property Thailand, participating in the blood donation drive for Red Cross Reconciliation Action Plan: Engaging Indigenous Australians In Australia, we play a key role in designing communities that are inclusive of indigenous Australians and their interests. Since the launch of our Reconciliation Action Plan in 2018, we have channeled A$366,000 to support indigenous-owned businesses, including artwork and catering businesses, and biodiversity assessments. Read more Blood Donation Drives The Red Cross began to face a shortage in blood reserves during the pandemic. The Group collaborated with the Red Cross to mobilise blood donation drives and set up mobile stations at some commercial and retail properties in Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Through the drive, about 1,000 units of blood were donated. Care for the Less Fortunate We supported the Singapore Red Cross Youth’s ongoing ‘disaster risk reduction’ programme to help enhance COVID-19 precautionary measures for vulnerable communities, specifically isolated elderly, persons with physical disabilities, disadvantaged families, and low-income patients with transportation needs. Our contribution helped its emergency response aid for its COVID-19 relief operations in China. Through our ‘Pack It with Love’ initiative, our employees volunteered time over three days at the Red Cross Campsite to pack 5,000 care packages for the underprivileged. Packing over 5,000 care packages for the underprivileged In addition, we contributed to the Real Estate Developers Association of Singapore Solidarity Fund for affected migrant workers in the built environment and healthcare workers. Our contribution went towards essential care pack items distributed to migrant workers in dormitories. Sharing with the Industry Throughout the year, the Group fielded representatives and subject matter experts to industry speaking engagements. They spoke on a range of topics on real estate, sustainability and innovation. Among the events that we participated in were the Green Building Council Australia’s Green Star in Focus event and Carbon Leader series in Australia, and the Building and Construction Authority’s iBuildSG Built Environment Formation Programme: Building a Lasting Legacy dialogue in Singapore. Speakers from the Group also shared their perspectives at the PropertyGuru Asia Real Estate Summit 2019 in Thailand, and at select forums led by Urban Land Institute in Singapore and China. In Singapore, we further participated in the International Council of Shopping Centers’ RECon Asia-Pacific Conference 2019 and the Advance Net Zero Roundtable organised by the World Green Building Council and the Singapore Green Building Council.

essential part of Frasers Property’s business strategy. We maintain a risk management system to proactively manage risks at the strategic, tactical and operational level to support the achievement of our business objectives and corporate strategies. Through active risk management at all levels, the management of Frasers Property creates and preserves value for the Group. Our Board of Directors is responsible for the governance of risks across the Group and ensuring that the management maintains a sound system of risk management and internal controls to achieve business objectives. It is assisted by the Risk Management Committee (RMC) to oversee our ERM framework, determine the risk appetite and risk strategy, assess our risk profile, material risks, and mitigation plans, as well as to ensure the adequacy and effectiveness of our risk management policies and procedures. The RMC comprises members of the Board who meet quarterly to review material risk issues and the mitigating strategies for such risks. All material risks and risk issues are reported to the RMC for review. The RMC, on behalf of the Board, approves Frasers Property’s risk tolerance statements, which set out the nature and extent of the significant risks that we are willing to take in achieving our business objectives. The risk tolerance statements are supported by the risk thresholds which have been developed by the management. These thresholds set the risk boundaries in various strategic and operational areas and serve as a guide for the management in their decision making. The risk tolerance status is reviewed and monitored closely by management. Any risk that has escalated beyond its threshold will be highlighted and addressed. The risk tolerance status, together with any associated mitigating action plan, will be reported to the RMC. RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS To facilitate a consistent and cohesive approach to ERM, we have developed an ERM framework and process. We adopt a robust risk management framework to maintain a high level of corporate discipline and governance. The risk management process is implemented by the management for the identification and management of risks of the Group. The process consists of risk identification, risk assessment and evaluation, risk treatment, risk monitoring and reporting. The ERM framework links Frasers Property’s risk management process with the strategic, tactical objectives and operations. Risks are identified and assessed, and mitigating measures developed to address and manage those risks. The ERM framework and process are summarised in an ERM policy for employees. The risk management process is integrated and coordinated across our businesses. The ERM framework and process apply to all our business units. The risk ownership lies with the heads of the respective business units who consistently review risks and ensure the control measures are effective. They are responsible for the development, implementation and practice of ERM within the business unit. Emerging risks that have a material impact on the business units are identified, assessed and monitored closely. The risk exposures and potential mitigating measures are tracked in risk registers maintained in a web-based corporate risk scorecard system. Where applicable, key risk indicators are established to provide an early warning signal to monitor risks. Key material risks and their associated mitigating measures are consolidated at the Group level and reported to the RMC quarterly. We proactively manage risks at the operational level. Control self-assessment, which promotes accountability and risk ownership, is implemented for key business processes. We have put in place a comfort matrix framework, which provides an overview of the mitigating strategies, and internal control assurance processes of key financial, operational, compliance and information technology risks. An ERM validation is held at the management level annually. At this annual ERM validation, the heads of business units deliberate on key risks and the corresponding mitigating strategies for their business units in response to emerging risks and opportunities, provide assurance to the Group Chief Executive Officer and key management personnel that the business units’ key risks have been identified and monitored, and that the mitigating measures are effective and adequate. The results of the ERM validation for the financial year ended 30 September 2020 were reported and presented to the RMC and the Board. We enhance our risk management culture through various risk management activities. Risk awareness briefings are conducted for all levels during staff orientation. Refresher sessions are also organised for existing staff when required. Periodic discussions of risk and risk issues are held at the business unit level where emerging risks are identified and managed. Business continuity exercises are carried out at least annually at the business units and the Group level to prepare ourselves against unexpected crises. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 7 9 local contacts, and reviewing expert opinions and market indicators, keeping abreast of economic, political and regulatory changes as well as stepping up the crisis preparedness of our properties. Emphasis is also placed on regulatory compliance in our operations. Financial risk We have global operations and therefore are exposed to financial risks such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. We use derivatives, a mix of fixed and floating rate debt with varying tenors as well as other financial instruments to hedge against foreign exchange and interest rate exposure. Policies and processes are in place to facilitate the monitoring and management of these risks. To manage liquidity risk, we monitor cash flow and maintain sufficient cash or cash equivalents as well as secure funding through multiple sources, to ensure that financing, funding and repayment of debt obligation are fulfilled. Our financial risk management is discussed in more detail in Treasury Highlights on pages 122 to 123 and the Notes to the Financial Statements on pages 237 to 357. Human capital risk We view our human capital as a key factor for driving growth. As such, talent management, employee engagement, the retention of key personnel and maintenance of a conducive work environment are important to the Group. In view of these considerations, the human resources team has developed and implemented effective reward schemes, succession planning, corporate wellness programmes and staff development programmes. Details on the various programmes and initiatives can be found in the Sustainability Report on pages 156 to 160. Contents We seek to improve our risk management processes on an ongoing basis. Our risk management system is benchmarked against market practice. During the financial year, we improved our risk management capability by enhancing the risk tools to include environmental, social and governance factors to provide a wider coverage of risk. In addition, we also identified and included definitions of key non-financial risk parameters for a more comprehensive risk assessment. For this financial year, we have enhanced our business continuity management capability through the rolling out of a business continuity management programme at the business unit level for the Singapore strategic business unit. We will continue to roll out the business continuity management programme to other business units in the coming years. The business continuity effort is overseen by our Business Continuity Management Committee comprising key heads of departments and business units. KEY RISKS The Management has been actively monitoring the key material risks that affect the Group. Some material risks include: Country risks With diversified international operations and investments, we are exposed to economic, political and regulatory developments in major economies and key financial and property markets. The risk of adverse changes in the global economy can reduce profits, result in revaluation losses, affect our ability to sell residential development stock and exit from operations and investments. Inconsistent and frequent changes in regulatory policies as well as security threats may also result in higher operating and investment costs, loss in productivity and disruptions to business operations.

Technology risk Frasers Property builds digital capabilities and invests in new technologies to ensure our business is future-ready. To safeguard against the technology risks that come with digitalisation, an Information Technology & Cybersecurity Committee comprising members of the Board and management was formed to provide oversight on technology risks. Group-wide policies, standards and procedures were established to govern the confidentiality, integrity and availability of business data and IT systems. Technology solutions were implemented to manage risk exposures such as cyber-attacks, phishing and malicious software such as ransomware. Incident Management Procedures and Disaster Recovery Plans have been established to respond to and ensure recovery from any breach of IT security. IT security training is conducted for new employees to institute awareness on evolving Capri by Fraser China Square, Singapore threats, with ongoing training provided for existing employees as well. External IT services providers are also periodically engaged to conduct IT threat and cyber-security vulnerability assessments and consulted on proactive IT systems management. Environmental, health and safety risks We place importance in managing environmental, health and safey (EHS) risks in our international operations. We have put in place an EHS policy and EHS management systems in key operation areas to manage the risks. We have achieved OHSAS18001 (Occupational Health & Safety) and ISO14001 (Environment) certification or equivalent for our key operations. The Singapore Retail Mall Management has been certified OHSAS18001 and is in the process of enhancing its management system to include ISO14001 and ISO50001 in the next one to two years. The Singapore Office Building Management has achieved the ISO14001, OHSAS18001 and ISO50001 (Energy) certification. Both the Singapore Retail Mall Management and Office Building Management are in the midst of transitioning its Occupational Health & Safety Management System from OHSAS18001 to ISO45001. Our hospitality business unit, Frasers Hospitality, is expanding its EHS management system in accordance with ISO14001 and ISO 45001 (updated standard on Occupational Health & Safety) to cover the enlarged Singapore-managed properties. Frasers Property Australia’s key operations have also been certified ISO 14001 and AS/NZS 4801 (Australia and New Zealand Standard for Occupational Health & Safety). In Frasers Property Thailand, a Health & Safety Policy is also in place. We will continue to extend the coverage of our EHS management systems to a wider scope of operations in the future. Frasers Property is also in the midst of carrying out climate risk assessment on its portfolio, based on various climate scenarios, and establishing mitigation plans to address climate risk.

In line with the listing rules of the SGX-ST (the “Listing Rules”), FPL complies with the principles of the Code of Corporate Governance 2018 (the “Code”). The practices of the Board and the management of the Group (the “Management”) adhere closely to the provisions under the Code. To the extent FPL’s practices may vary from any provision, FPL will explain the reason for the variation and how its practices nevertheless are consistent with the intent of the relevant principle of the Code. FPL is also guided by the voluntary Practice Guidance which was issued to complement the Code and which sets out best practice standards for companies; as this will build investor and stakeholder confidence in the Group. A summary of compliance with the express disclosure requirements in the principles and provisions of the Code is set out on pages 213 to 214. FPL’S VALUES 1. 2. 3. FPL is firmly committed to upholding and maintaining high standards of corporate governance, corporate transparency and sustainability. FPL believes that a robust and sound governance framework is an essential foundation on which to build, evolve and innovate a business which is sustainable over the long-term, and is resilient in the face of the demands of a dynamic, fast-changing environment. FPL adheres to corporate policies, business practices and systems of risk management and internal controls, which are designed to ensure that it maintains consistently high standards of integrity, accountability and governance throughout its organisation and in its daily operations. FPL pursues growth and enhancement of corporate performance and value on a sustainable basis. In so doing, FPL safeguards the assets of the Group, in the interests of the Company’s shareholders (the “Shareholders”) and other stakeholders. The Board works with Management to ensure that these values underpin its leadership of the Company and guides Management and employees at all levels of the organisation in their respective roles within the Group. BOARD MATTERS The Board The Board is responsible for the Group’s overall entrepreneurial leadership, oversight of the Group’s business performance, determination of its risk appetite and performance objectives, and its long-term success. The Board sets the strategic direction of the Group and its approach to corporate governance, including the organisational culture, values and ethical standards of conduct, and works with Management on its implementation across all levels of the Group’s organisation, as well as focus on value creation, innovation and sustainability. The Board, supported by Management, ensures necessary resources are in place for the Group to meet its strategic objectives. Through the Group’s enterprise-wide risk management framework, the Board establishes and maintains a sound risk management framework to effectively monitor and manage risks. It also oversees Management to ensure transparency and accountability to key stakeholder groups. During the financial year ended 30 September 2020 (“FY2020”), the Board worked closely with Management in monitoring the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and reviewing issues arising therefrom. Details relating to this can be found in the section “In Conversation with the Group CEO” on pages 36 to 47 of this annual report. In FY2020, the Board attended a Board Strategy Meeting over three half-days, which allowed the directors of the Company (the “Directors”) to: (i) focus on the Group’s long-term strategy apart from the regular agenda at the quarterly Board meetings; and (ii) engage in dynamic and in-depth strategic discussion to promote deeper understanding of the Group’s business environment and operations, and refine its strategies. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 8 3 All Directors attended the 2020 Board Strategy Meeting held in August 2020, where they had in-depth discussions with Management, which included: (a) how the Group is looking at its evolution in a post-COVID19 world; and (b) review of the business model, market opportunities and challenges for each of the Group’s businesses. This was followed by a review of the financial budget and the Group’s portfolio and returns analysis at the September 2020 Board meeting. The Chairman and the Group Chief Executive Officer The Chairman of the Board (the “Chairman”) and Group Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “Group CEO”) are separate persons The Chairman provides leadership to the Board. He sets the right ethical and behavioural tone and ensures the Board’s effectiveness by, among other things, encouraging active and effective engagement, participation by and contribution from all Directors and facilitating constructive relations among and between them and Management. The Chairman promotes a culture of openness at Board meetings and encourages Directors to engage in productive and thorough discussions on strategic, business and other key issues pertinent to the business and operations of the Group, and fosters constructive debate, leading to better decision-making and enhanced business performance. The Group CEO leads the Management and is responsible for reviewing and implementing the business direction and the strategies for the Group as approved by the Board. He also, with the support of Management, seeks business opportunities, drives new initiatives and is responsible for the operational performance of the Group. Key initiatives led by the Group CEO and supported by Management during FY2020 include (i) leading the Group’s evolution, amid changes brought upon by external factors, while navigating the COVID-19 pandemic; (ii) building resilient and sustainable business platforms and strengthening the Group’s structure; (iii) scaling up the platforms of REITs and trusts managed by the Group; (iv) maintaining the Company’s active capital management discipline; and (v) driving organisational culture and developing the Company’s purpose. The division of responsibilities between the Chairman and the Group CEO, who are separate persons, are clearly demarcated. The roles between the Chairman and the Group CEO are separate, and no one person has unfettered powers of decision-making. Role of Management The Management is led by the Group CEO. Senior Management, comprising the Group CEO, the Group Chief Corporate Officer (the “Group CCO”), the Group Chief Financial Officer (“Group CFO”), the Group Chief Investment Officer (the “Group CIO”) and the Chief Executive Officers (“CEOs”) of the Group’s strategic business units (the “SBUs”) (collectively, the “Key Management Personnel”) are responsible for executing the Group’s strategies and policies, and are accountable to the Board for the conduct and performance of the respective business operations under their charge. Relationships between Management and Board Mr Panote Sirivadhanabhakdi was appointed as the Group CEO as of 1 October 2016. Mr Panote Sirivadhanabhakdi is the son of the Chairman of the Board, Mr Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi, and the Vice Chairman of the Board, Khunying Wanna Sirivadhanabhakdi, each of whom is also a substantial Shareholder. Mr Panote Sirivadhanabhakdi is also the brother-in- law of a Director, Mr Chotiphat Bijananda. Board Committees The Board has formed committees of the Board (the “Board Committees”) to oversee specific areas, for greater efficiency. There are five Board Committees, namely, the Board Executive Committee (“EXCO”), the Audit Committee (“AC”), the Nominating Committee (“NC”), the Remuneration Committee (“RC”) and the Risk Management Committee (“RMC”).

Delegation of Authority Framework The Company has adopted a framework of delegated authorisations in its Manual of Authority (the “MOA”). The MOA defines the procedures and levels of authorisation required for specified transactions. It also sets out approval limits for operating and capital expenditure as well as acquisitions and disposals of assets and investments. While day-to-day operations of the Group’s business are delegated to Management, in the Board’s exercise of its leadership and oversight of the Group, the MOA contains a schedule of matters specifically reserved for approval by the Board. These include approval of annual budgets, financial plans, business strategies and material transactions, such as major acquisitions, divestments, funding and investment proposals. The Board approves transactions exceeding certain threshold limits while delegating authority for transactions below these limits to the EXCO and/or Management and sub-committees formed at various levels of Management (the “Management Sub-Committees”), under the authorisation limits of the MOA, to optimise operational efficiency. Aligned with the Company’s strategy to develop growth and build scalable platforms in core businesses and geographical markets, the Board has also put in place an internal approval matrix with established authority limits delegated to Management Sub-Committees, to facilitate the execution of adopted business strategies and operating plans subject to specified authority limits. Such Management Sub-Committees include capital management and finance and investment committees at various business units that are responsible for the review of the quality and integrity of (a) finance, accounting, treasury and taxation functions; (b) audit, internal controls and financial practices; and (c) risk management and compliance framework, and reviewing of matters such as all proposed acquisitions, development plans, asset disposals and major leasing transactions.

Training and Development of Directors The NC is tasked with ensuring that new Directors are aware of their duties and obligations, and overseeing and making recommendations to the Board on the review of training and professional development programmes for the Board and its Directors. Upon appointment, each new Director is issued a formal letter of appointment setting out his or her duties and obligations, including his or her responsibilities as fiduciaries and on the policies relating to conflicts of interest. A comprehensive induction and orientation programme is also conducted to familiarise new appointees with the business activities, strategic direction, policies and corporate governance practices of the Group, as well as their statutory and other duties and responsibilities as Directors. This programme allows new Directors to get acquainted with Management, and fosters better rapport and facilitates communication with Management. The Directors are kept continually and regularly updated on the Group’s businesses and the regulatory and industry specific environments in which the entities of the Group operate. Updates on relevant legal, regulatory and technical developments may be in writing or disseminated by way of presentations and/or handouts. The Board is also regularly updated on the latest key changes to any applicable legislation and changes to the Listing Rules as well as developments in financial reporting standards, by way of briefings held by the Company’s lawyers and auditors. During FY2020, the Directors attended a presentation in relation to Personal Data Regulations of Singapore and the European Union, and were updated on revisions to the SGX-ST Listing Rules Disclosures, changes in the Financial Reporting Standards and updates on Tax Regulations in Relevant Jurisdictions. To ensure the Directors can fulfil their obligations and to continually improve the performance of the Board, all Directors are encouraged to undergo continual professional development during the term of their appointment, and provided with opportunities to develop and maintain their skills and knowledge at the Company’s expense. Directors are encouraged to be members of the Singapore Institute of Directors (“SID”) for them to receive updates and training from SID to stay abreast of relevant developments in financial, legal and regulatory requirements, and business trends.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 9 3 The NC reviews, on an annual basis, the Board structure, size, composition of the Board and Board Committees taking into account the requirements of the Code. The NC has assessed that the current structure, size and composition of the Board and Board Committees are appropriate for the scope and nature of FPL’s operations. No individual or group dominates the Board’s decision-making process or has unfettered powers of decision-making. The NC is of the opinion that the Directors with their diverse backgrounds and experience (including banking, finance, accounting, legal and other relevant industry knowledge, entrepreneurial and management experience, and familiarity with regulatory requirements and risk management) provide the appropriate balance and mix of skills, knowledge, experience and other aspects of diversity that avoids groupthink and fosters constructive debate and ensures the effectiveness of the Board and its Board Committees. The Board concurs with the views of the NC. Board Composition in terms of Age Group, Independence, Gender and Tenure (as at 30 September 2020) Age Group Independence n Non-Executive and 36% n 41-50 9% n 51-60 9% n 61-70 36% n 71-80 46% Gender Tenure Non-Independent Directors n Non-Executive and Independent Directors n Executive and Non-Independent Directors Between 7 – 8 years 3 Between 5 – 7 years 4 years or less 1 n Female 9% n Male 91% Number of Directors 55% 9% 7 The Company’s Constitution provides that at least one-third of its Directors shall retire from office and are subject to re- election at every annual general meeting of the Company (“AGM”). All Directors are required to retire from office at least once every three years. Under its Terms of Reference, the NC is tasked with reviewing the succession plans for Directors, and assessing and evaluating whether Directors retiring at each AGM are appropriate for reappointment by virtue of their skills, experience and contributions, and providing its recommendations to the Board. Newly-appointed Directors during the year must also submit themselves for retirement and re-election at the next AGM immediately following their appointment. The Shareholders approve the appointment or re-appointment of Board members at the AGM. Information on the Directors that are seeking election or re-election at the upcoming AGM can be found on pages 415 to 421. Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT1 9 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D The NC reviews the nominations for appointments and re-appointments to the Board and Board Committees, taking into account, among other things, whether Directors (including those who hold multiple board representations and other principal commitments) are able to and have been devoting sufficient time to discharge their responsibilities adequately and identifying the balance of skills, knowledge and experience required for the Board to discharge its responsibilities effectively. The process for the selection, appointment and re-appointment of Directors also takes into account the composition and progressive renewal of the Board and Board Committees, each Director’s experience, education, expertise, personal qualities and general and sector-specific knowledge in relation to the needs of the Board as well as whether the candidates will add diversity to the Board and whether they are likely to have adequate time to discharge their duties. The NC considers a range of different channels to source and screen candidates for Board appointments, depending on the requirements, including tapping on the existing networks of contacts and recommendations. External consultants may be retained from time to time, where appropriate, to assist in assessing and selecting potential candidates. Suitable candidates are carefully evaluated by the NC so that recommendations made on proposed candidates are objective and well supported. Instead of prescribing a maximum number of directorships and/or other principal commitments that each Director may have, the NC adopts a holistic assessment of each Director’s individual capacity and circumstances to carry out his or her duties, taking into consideration not only the number of other board and other principal commitments held by each Director, but also the nature and complexity of such commitments. The NC submits its recommendations for nominations of appointments and reappointments for approval by the Board. On an annual basis, the NC reviews (a) the directorships and principal commitments of each Director, and (b) a framework for Board evaluation to be conducted by an external consultant on the effectiveness of the Board. Through the aforementioned Board evaluation exercise conducted by the external consultant, the Directors assess whether Board members effectively manage his or her directorships and have the time and ability to contribute to the Board. The assessment also takes into consideration Directors’ commitment, conduct and contributions (such as participation, candour and ability to make quality decisions) at Board meetings, as well as whether Directors’ engagement with Management is adequate and effective. Further details on the Board evaluation exercise are set out under the section “Board Performance Evaluation” on page 196. Board Diversity Policy The Board has adopted a board diversity policy. The NC will monitor and implement this policy, and will take the principles of the policy into consideration when determining the optimal composition of the Board, and when recommending any proposed changes to the Board. On the recommendation of the NC, the Board may set certain measurable objectives/ specific diversity targets, with a view to achieving an optimal Board composition, and these objectives/specific diversity targets may be reviewed by the NC from time to time to ensure their appropriateness. The Board views diversity at the Board level as an essential element for driving value in decision-making and proactively seeks as part of its diversity policy, to maintain an appropriate balance of expertise, skills and attributes among the Directors. This is reflected in the diversity of backgrounds and competencies of the Directors, whose competencies range from banking, finance, accounting and legal to relevant industry knowledge, entrepreneurial and management experience, and familiarity with regulatory requirements and risk management. This is beneficial to the Company and Management as decisions by, and discussions with, the Board would be enriched by the broad range of views and perspectives and the breadth of experience of the Directors. Directors’ Independence The Directors complete a declaration of independence annually which is reviewed by the NC. The NC determines the independence of each Director annually and as and when circumstances require, based on the definitions set out in the Listing Rules and the guidelines of independence set out in the Code and its accompanying Practice Guidance. The NC provides its views to the Board for the Board’s consideration. Directors are expected to disclose any relationships with the Company, its related corporations, its substantial shareholders or its officers which may affect their independence, as and when they arise. Based on the declarations of independence of the Directors, and having regard to the circumstances set forth in Provision 2.1 of the Code and Rule 210(5)(d) of the SGX-ST Listing Manual, the NC and the Board have determined that for FY2020, there are six Independent Directors on the Board, namely Mr Charles Mak Ming Ying, Mr Chan Heng Wing, Mr Philip Eng Heng Nee, Mr Tan Pheng Hock, Mr Wee Joo Yeow and Mr Weerawong Chittmittrapap. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 9 5 Based on their declarations, none of them has any relationship with the Company, its related corporations, the substantial Shareholders or the Company’s officers that could interfere, or reasonably be perceived to interfere, with the exercise of each of their independent business judgment in the best interests of the Company. The NC reviewed the appointments of Mr Philip Eng Heng Nee as (i) the chairman of the board of directors of Frasers Hospitality International Pte Ltd (“FHI”) and non-executive chairman of the approval committee of the Hospitality SBU, being one of the Management Sub- Committees, (ii) a member of the board of directors of Frasers Property Australia Pty Ltd (“FPA”) and (iii) a non-executive and non-independent director of Frasers Centrepoint Asset Management Ltd. (“FCAM”) prior to his retirement as director of FCAM on 3 January 2020, and was satisfied that such appointments and the payment of director’s fees to him in respect of such appointments did not affect his continued ability to exercise strong objective judgment and be independent in conduct and character (in particular, in the expression of his views and in his participation in the deliberations and decision making of the Board and the Board Committees of which he is a member) and act in the best interests of all Shareholders as a whole. FHI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company within the Hospitality SBU, FPA is a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company within the Frasers Property Australia SBU and FCAM, which is the manager of Frasers Centrepoint Trust, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Independent Directors lead the way in upholding good corporate governance at the Board level and their presence facilitates the exercise of objective independent judgement on corporate affairs. Their participation and input also ensure that key issues and strategies are critically reviewed, constructively challenged, fully discussed and thoroughly examined, taking into account the long-term interests of FPL and its Shareholders. As of 30 September 2020, none of the Independent Directors have been on the Board for an aggregate period of more than nine years. Board renewal is a continuing process where the appropriate composition of the Board is continually under review. In this regard, the tenure of each Independent Director is monitored so that the process for board renewal is commenced ahead of any Independent Director reaching the nine-year mark to facilitate a smooth transition and to ensure that the Board continues to have an appropriate balance of independence. To this end, the NC is tasked with undertaking the process of reviewing, considering and recommending any changes to the composition of the Board, where appropriate, taking into account the requirements to be met by Independent Directors including Listing Rule 210(5)(d)(iii) which will be effective from 1 January 2022. No alternate Directors have been appointed on the Board for FY2020. Lead Independent Director Mr Charles Mak Ming Ying, who has been an Independent Director of the Company since 25 October 2013, was appointed as lead Independent Director (the “Lead Independent Director”) on 8 May 2015. The Lead Independent Director provides leadership in situations where the Chairman is conflicted, chairs Board meetings in the absence of the Chairman, and is available to Shareholders where they have concerns and the normal channels of communication with the Chairman, the Group CEO and the Group CFO may be inappropriate or inadequate. The Lead Independent Director represents the Independent Directors in responding to Shareholders’ and other stakeholders’ questions that are directed to the Independent Directors as a group, and has the authority to call for meetings of the Independent Directors, where necessary and appropriate. The Lead Independent Director can call for a meeting of the Independent Directors and/or other non-executive Directors when necessary and appropriate without the presence of Management to provide a forum for them for the frank exchange of any concerns which may be difficult to raise in Management’s presence. The Lead Independent Director thereafter provides feedback to the Chairman as appropriate. Conflict Policy To address and manage possible conflicts of interest that may arise between Directors’ interests and those of the Group, the Company, inter alia: (a) requires Directors to declare any interest in a transaction or proposed transaction with the Group and any actual or potential conflict of interest as soon as practicable after the relevant facts have come to their knowledge; and (b) requires such Directors to refrain from participating in meetings or discussions (or relevant segments thereof), in addition to abstaining from voting, on any matter in which they have a direct or indirect personal material interest. Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT1 9 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D For purchases of property in FPL property projects, there is also a policy which sets out the process and procedure for disclosing, reporting and obtaining of relevant approvals for property purchases made by any Director, the Group CEO or any other interested persons (as defined in the SGX-ST Listing Manual) and employees of the Group. The Company does not have a practice of extending loans to Directors, and as at 30 September 2020, there were no loans granted by the Company to Directors. If there are such loans, the Company will comply with its obligations under the Companies Act in relation to loans, quasi-loans, credit transactions and related arrangements to Directors. Board Performance Evaluation The NC is tasked with making recommendations to the Board on the process and criteria for evaluation of the performance of the Board as a whole, the Board Committees and the Directors. The effectiveness of the Board as a whole, the Board Committees and the contribution by each Director to the effectiveness of the Board is assessed annually. The Board, with the recommendation of the NC, has implemented a formal process for assessing the effectiveness of the Board and its Board Committees and the contribution by each Director to the effectiveness of the Board. For FY2019 and FY2020, an independent external consultant, Ernst & Young Advisory Pte. Ltd. was appointed to facilitate the process of conducting a Board evaluation survey. The external consultant has no connection with the Company or any of the Directors, apart from being the consultant in previous financial year(s). The outcome of the evaluation in relation to FY2019 was satisfactory and based on the responses received, ratings were generally affirmative across the evaluation categories. Based on the NC’s review, the Board and the various Board Committees operate effectively and each Director is contributing to the overall effectiveness of the Board. For FY2020, the survey was designed to provide an evaluation of the current effectiveness of the Board and to support the Chairman and the Board in proactively considering what can enhance the readiness of the Board to address emerging strategic priorities for the Company as a whole. As part of the survey, the external consultant will facilitate questionnaires to be sent to all Directors as well as conduct interviews with some Directors to obtain their feedback. The objective performance criteria covered in the Board evaluation exercise relate to the following key segments: (1) the Board’s contribution to the overall development of the Company’s strategic direction and performance orientation; (2) Board priorities; (3) Board composition and skills; (4) Governance of the Board and organisation focus; (5) the effectiveness of the Board’s internal operations and Board dynamics, as well as engagement with key investors, Shareholders and strategic stakeholders; (6) the Board’s relationship with Management; (7) Director Performance, which includes an evaluation of whether each Director is willing to challenge and ask questions to address gaps in and add to others’ thinking, effective in fulfilling and delivering value on his/her responsibilities and acts as a valuable resource in fulfilling the Board’s accountabilities; (8) the Board’s role in respect of Director development and succession planning for the Board and Management; and (9) the effectiveness of the Board Committees. The responses to the questionnaires and interviews would be summarised by the external consultant and its report would be submitted to the NC. Findings and recommendations of the external consultant which include feedback from Directors would be taken into consideration and any necessary follow-up actions would be undertaken with a view to improving the overall effectiveness of the Board in fulfilling its role and meeting its responsibilities to Shareholders. REMUNERATION MATTERS With the recommendations of the RC, the Board has put in place a formal and transparent process for developing policies on Director and executive remuneration and for fixing the remuneration packages of individual Directors and key Management. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 9 7 Compensation Philosophy The Group seeks to incentivise and reward consistent and sustained performance through market competitive, internally equitable, performance-orientated and shareholder-aligned compensation programmes. This compensation philosophy serves as the foundation for the Group’s remuneration framework, and guides the Group’s remuneration framework and strategies. In addition, the Group’s compensation philosophy seeks to align the aspirations and interests of its employees with the interests of the Group and its Shareholders, resulting in the sharing of rewards for both employees and Shareholders on a sustained basis. The Group’s compensation philosophy serves to attract, motivate and retain employees. The Group aims to connect employees’ desire to develop and fulfil their aspirations with the growth opportunities afforded by the Group’s vision and corporate initiatives. Compensation Principles All compensation programme design, determination and administration are guided by the following principles: (a) Pay-for-Performance The Group’s Pay-for-Performance principle encourages excellence, in a manner consistent with the Group’s core values. The Group takes a total compensation approach, which recognises the value and responsibility of each role, and differentiates and rewards performance through its incentive plans. (b) Shareholder Returns Performance measures for incentives are established to drive initiatives and activities that are aligned with both short-term value creation and long-term shareholder wealth creation, thus ensuring a focus on delivering Shareholder returns. (c) Sustainable Performance The Group believes sustained success depends on the balanced pursuit and consistent achievement of short and long-term goals. Hence, variable incentives incorporate a significant pay-at-risk element to align employees with sustainable performance for the Group. (d) Market Competitiveness The Group aims to be market competitive by benchmarking its compensation levels with relevant comparators. However, the Group embraces a holistic view of employee engagement that extends beyond monetary rewards. Recognising each individual as unique, the Group seeks to motivate and develop employees through all the levers available to the Group through its comprehensive human capital platform, including learning and development and career advancement through vertical, lateral and diagonal moves within the Group. Engagement of External Consultants The RC may from time to time, and where necessary or required, engage external consultants in framing the remuneration policy and determining the level and mix of remuneration for Directors and Management. Among other things, this helps the Company to stay competitive in its remuneration packages. During FY2020, Korn Ferry was appointed as the Company’s remuneration consultant. The remuneration consultant does not have any relationship with the Company or its Directors or Key Management Personnel which would affect its independence and objectivity. Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT1 9 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D Remuneration Framework The RC reviews and makes recommendations to the Board on the remuneration framework for the Independent Directors and other non-executive Directors, the Key Management Personnel and other management personnel of the Company. The remuneration framework is endorsed by the Board. The remuneration framework covers all aspects of remuneration including salaries, allowances, performance bonuses, grant of share awards and incentives for the Key Management Personnel and fees for the Independent Directors and other non-executive Directors. Remuneration Policy in Respect of Management and Other Employees The RC reviews the level, structure and mix of remuneration and benefits policies and practices (where appropriate) of the Company, to ensure that they are appropriate and proportionate to the sustained performance of the Company, taking into account the strategic objectives of the Company, and designed to attract, retain and motivate the Key Management Personnel to successfully manage the Company for the long term. The RC takes into account all aspects of remuneration, including termination terms, to ensure that they are fair. The remuneration framework comprises fixed and variable components, which include short-term and long-term incentives. When conducting its review of the remuneration framework, the RC takes into account Company and individual performance. Company performance is measured based on pre-set financial and non-financial indicators. Individual performance is measured via employee’s annual appraisal based on indicators such as core values, competencies and key performance indicators. Fixed Component The fixed component in the Company’s remuneration framework is structured to reward employees for the role they performed, and is benchmarked against relevant industry market data. It comprises base salary, fixed allowances and any statutory contribution. The base salary and fixed allowances for each Key Management Personnel are reviewed annually by RC and approved by the Board. Variable Component An appropriate proportion of Key Management Personnel’s remuneration comprises a variable component which is structured so as to link rewards to corporate and individual performance and incentivise sustained performance in both the short and long term. The variable incentives are measured based on quantitative and qualitative targets, and overall performance will be determined at the end of the year and approved by the RC. (1) Short Term Incentive Plans The short-term incentive plans aim to incentivise excellence in performance in the short term. All Key Management Personnel are assessed using a balanced scorecard with pre-agreed financial and non-financial Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”). The financial KPIs comprise of Group and, where applicable, SBUs targets. Non-financial KPIs may include measures on People, Sustainability, Corporate Governance or specified projects. These targets are established at the beginning of each financial year. At the end of the financial year, the achievements are measured against the pre-agreed targets and the short-term incentives of each Key Management Personnel are determined. The RC recommends the final short-term incentives that are awarded to the Key Management Personnel for the Board’s approval, taking into consideration any other relevant circumstances. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 1 9 9 (2) Long Term Incentive Plans The RC administers the Company’s long-term incentive plans (“LTI Plans”), namely, the restricted share plan (“RSP”) and the performance share plan (“PSP”). The RSP and the PSP were approved by the Board and adopted on 25 October 2013. Through the LTI Plans, the Company seeks to foster a greater ownership culture within the Group by aligning more directly the interests of Key Management Personnel and senior executives with the interest of the Shareholders and other stakeholders, and for such employees to participate and share in the Group’s growth and success, thereby ensuring alignment with sustainable value creation for Shareholders over the long-term. The RSP is available to a broader base of senior executives compared to the PSP. Its objectives are to increase the Company’s flexibility and effectiveness in its continuing efforts to attract, motivate and retain talented senior executives and to reward these executives for the future performance of the Company. The PSP applies to senior Management in key positions who shoulder the responsibility of the Company’s future performance and who are able to drive the growth of the Company through superior performance. They serve as further motivation to the participants in striving for excellence, promoting the Company’s long-term success and delivering long-term Shareholder value. Under the RSP and the PSP, the Company grants share-based awards (“Initial Awards”) with pre-determined Group performance targets being set at the beginning of performance period. The RC recommends the Initial Awards granted to each Key Management Personnel to the Board for approval, taking into consideration the executive’s individual performance. The performance periods for the RSP and the PSP are one year and three years respectively. For the RSP, the pre-set targets are Attributable Profit Before Fair value and Exceptional items (“APBFE”) and Return on Capital Employed. For the PSP, the pre-set targets are Return on Invested Capital, Total Shareholders’ Return Relative to FTSE ST Real Estate Index and Absolute Shareholders’ Return as a multiple of Cost of Equity. The RSP and PSP awards represent the right to receive fully paid shares in the Company (“Shares”), their equivalent cash value or a combination thereof, free of charge, provided certain prescribed performance conditions are met. Such performance conditions are generally performance indicators that are key drivers of shareholder value creation and aligned to the Group’s business objectives. The final number of Shares to be released (“Final Awards”) will depend on the achievement of the pre-determined Group performance targets at the end of the respective performance period. If such targets are exceeded, more Shares than the Initial Awards may be delivered, subject to a maximum multiplier of the Initial Awards. The Final Awards under the RSP will vest to the participants in three tranches over two years after the one-year performance period. For the PSP, the Final Awards will vest fully at the end of the three-year performance period. The vesting period under the RSP is between one to three years. The maximum number of Shares which can be released, when aggregated with the number of new Shares issued pursuant to the vesting of awards under the RSP and the PSP will not exceed ten percent (10%) in aggregate of the issued share capital of the Company over the life of the RSP and the PSP of ten years respectively. The RC has absolute discretion to decide on the Final Awards, taking into consideration any other relevant circumstances. Approach to Remuneration of Key Management Personnel The Company advocates a performance-based remuneration system that is highly flexible and responsive to the market, which also takes into account the Company’s performance and that of its employees. In designing the compensation structure, the RC seeks to ensure that the level and mix of remuneration is competitive, relevant and appropriate in finding a balance between current versus long-term compensation and between cash versus equity incentive compensation. Executives who have a greater ability to influence Group outcomes have a greater proportion of overall reward at risk. The RC exercises broad discretion and independent judgement in ensuring that the amount and mix of compensation are aligned with the interests of the Shareholders and other stakeholders and promote the long-term success of the Company. Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT2 0 0 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D Performance Indicators for Key Management Personnel As set out above, the Company’s variable remuneration comprises short-term and long-term incentives, taking into account both individual and Company’s performance. This is to ensure employee remuneration is linked to performance. In determining short-term incentives, both the Group and SBU’s financial and non-financial performance as set out in the balanced scorecard are taken into consideration. The performance targets under the LTI Plans of APBFE and Return on Capital Employed (in the case of the RSP) and Return on Invested Capital, Total Shareholders’ Return Relative to FTSE ST Real Estate Index and Absolute Shareholders’ Return as a multiple of Cost of Equity (in the case of the PSP) align the interests of the Key Management Personnel with the long-term growth and performance of the Company. For FY2020, the pre-determined target performance levels for the RSP and the PSP grants were partially met. Currently, the Company does not have claw-back provisions which allow it to reclaim incentive components of remuneration from its Key Management Personnel in exceptional circumstances of misstatement of financial results or misconduct resulting in financial loss. Remuneration Packages of Key Management Personnel The RC reviews and makes recommendations on the specific packages and service terms for the Group CEO and the other Key Management Personnel for approval by the Board. No Director or Key Management Personnel is involved in deciding his/her remuneration. The Group CEO does not receive any fee for serving on the Board and Board Committees. As he is also an associate of a substantial Shareholder, he does not participate in the RSP and PSP. The Group CEO’s long-term incentive paid in the form of cash is based on similar performance targets, performance periods and achievement factors of the RSP and the PSP. Non-independent Directors abstain from any decisions relating to the Group CEO’s remuneration. The RC aligns the Group CEO’s leadership, through appropriate remuneration and benefit policies, with the Company’s strategic objectives and key challenges. Performance targets are also set for the Group CEO and his performance is evaluated yearly. Remuneration Policy in respect of Independent Directors and Other Non-Executive Directors The remuneration of Independent Directors and other non-executive Directors has been designed to be appropriate to the level of contribution, taking into account factors such as effort, time spent, and responsibilities, on the Board and Board Committees, and to attract, retain and motivate the Directors to provide good stewardship of the Company. Independent Directors and other non-executive Directors do not receive options, share-based incentives or bonuses. The Company engages consultants to review Directors’ fees by benchmarking such fees against the amounts paid by listed industry peers. Each non-executive Director’s and Independent Director’s remuneration comprises a basic fee and attendance fees for attending Board and Board Committee meetings. In addition, non-executive Directors and Independent Directors who perform additional services on Board Committees are paid an additional fee for such services. The chairman of each Board Committee is also paid a higher fee compared to the members of the respective Board Committees in view of the greater responsibility carried by that office.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 0 3 The Company has not disclosed exact details of the remuneration of each Key Management Personnel due to the highly competitive human resource environment and the confidential nature of staff remuneration matters. As at 30 September 2020, save for the Group CEO, there are no employees within the Group who is a substantial Shareholder or an immediate family member of a Director or substantial Shareholder, and whose remuneration (from the Company and its subsidiaries) exceeds $100,000 during the year. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE, REPORTING AND AUDIT The Board is responsible for providing a balanced and understandable assessment of the Company’s and the Group’s performance, position and prospects, including interim and other price sensitive public reports, and reports to regulators (if required). The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with the Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) prescribed by the Accounting Standards Council. Quarterly financial results were provided to Shareholders for the financial quarters ended 31 December 2019 and 31 March 2020. Following the amendments to Rule 705(2) of the SGX-ST Listing Manual which took effect from 7 February 2020, the Company announced on 13 May 2020 that it would cease to announce its financial statements on a quarterly basis and would announce its financial statements on a half-yearly basis, commencing from the financial results announcement for the full-year ended 30 September 2020. The Company would provide business updates to shareholders for the first and third quarter performance of the Company and the Group, commencing with the third quarter ended 30 June 2020. The Board also provides Shareholders with business updates, other price sensitive information and material corporate developments through announcements to the SGX-ST and, where appropriate, press releases, the Company’s website and media and analysts’ briefings. In communicating and disseminating its results, the Company aims to present a balanced and clear assessment of the Group’s performance, position and prospects. In order to enable the Board to obtain a timely and informed assessment of the Company’s position, Management furnishes accounts to it on a quarterly basis, with monthly management accounts to be provided as the Board may request from time to time. Such reports keep the Board members informed of the Company’s and the Group’s performance, position and prospects. External Audit The AC conducts an assessment of the external auditors, and recommends its appointment or re-appointment to the Board. The assessment is based on factors such as the performance and quality of its audit and the independence of the auditors. In the AGM held on 29 January 2020, KPMG LLP was re-appointed by Shareholders as the external auditors of the Company for FY2020. Pursuant to the requirements of the SGX-ST, an audit partner may only be in charge of a maximum of five consecutive annual audits and may then return after two years. The current KPMG LLP audit partner for the Group has been appointed since the AGM held on 29 January 2016. There will be a new audit partner in charge for the financial year ending 30 September 2021. During the year, the AC conducted a review of the scope and results of audit by the external auditors and its cost effectiveness, as well as the independence and objectivity of the external auditors. It also reviewed all non-audit services provided by the external auditors, and the aggregate amount of audit fees paid to them. Details of fees payable to the external auditors in respect of audit and non-audit services for FY2020 are set out in the table below: Fees Relating to External Auditors for FY2020 For audit and audit-related services For non-audit services Total $ (Million) 6.0 1.7 7.7 Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT2 0 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D The AC is satisfied that neither their independence nor their objectivity is put at risk, and that they are still able to meet the audit requirements and statutory obligations of the Company. The Company has complied with Rule 712 of the Listing Rules which requires, amongst others, that a suitable auditing firm should be appointed by the Company. The Company has also complied with Rule 715 of the Listing Rules which requires that the same auditing firm of the Company based in Singapore audits its Singapore-incorporated subsidiaries and significant joint venture and associates, and that a suitable auditing firm be engaged for its significant foreign- incorporated subsidiaries and joint venture and associates. In the review of the financial statements for FY2020, the AC discussed the following key audit matters identified by the external auditors with Management: Key Audit Matter Review by the AC Valuation of Investment Properties The AC considered the methodologies and key assumptions applied by the valuers in arriving at the valuation of investment properties. The AC reviewed the outputs from the year-end valuation process of the Group’s investment properties and discussed the details of the valuation with Management, focusing on significant changes in fair value measurements and key drivers of the changes. The AC considered the findings of the external auditors, including their assessment of the appropriateness of valuation methodologies and the underlying key assumptions applied in the valuation of investment properties and the estimation uncertainty during the current climate. The AC was satisfied with the valuation process, the methodologies used and the valuation for investment properties as adopted as at 30 September 2020. Valuation of Intangible Assets The AC considered the methodologies and key assumptions applied by Management for its annual impairment tests of the Group’s intangible assets. The AC also considered the external auditors’ findings on Management’s estimates of the recoverable amounts supporting the intangible assets, the methodologies applied and key assumptions used. Where applicable, the AC was briefed on the sensitivity of the key assumptions on the available headroom. The AC was satisfied with the methodologies and key assumptions used in supporting Management’s assessment of the carrying value of the intangible assets as at 30 September 2020. Valuation of Development Properties for Sale The AC considered the methodology applied to the valuation of development properties held for sale, focusing on development projects in markets faced with challenging conditions or with slower than expected sales. Where appropriate, the AC had inquired of Management on its basis and its strategy to sell the unsold units. The AC has also considered the findings of the external auditors on Management’s assessment of the net realisable value of these development projects. The AC was satisfied with the approach and assessment adopted by Management in arriving at the net realisable value of the development projects as at 30 September 2020. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 0 5 Key Audit Matter Review by the AC Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment The AC considered the methodologies and key assumptions applied in arriving at the valuation of property, plant and equipment in relation to the Group’s portfolio of hotel properties. The AC reviewed the outputs from the year-end valuation process of the Group’s hotel properties and discussed the details of the valuation with Management, focusing on significant changes in fair value measurements and key drivers of the changes. The AC considered the findings of the external auditors, including their assessment of the appropriateness of valuation methodologies and the underlying key assumptions applied in the valuation of the Group’s hotel properties and the estimation uncertainty during the current climate. The AC was satisfied with the valuation process, the methodologies used and the valuation for property, plant and equipment as adopted as at 30 September 2020 in relation to the Group’s portfolio of hotel properties. GOVERNANCE OF RISK AND INTERNAL CONTROLS The Board is responsible for the governance of risk and ensures that Management maintains a sound system of risk management and internal controls. The Company maintains a sound system of risk management and internal controls with a view to safeguarding the interests of the Company and its Shareholders and the Company’s assets. Enterprise Risk Management and Risk Tolerance Assisted by the RMC, the Board oversees and determines the nature and extent of the significant risks which the Company is willing to take in achieving its strategic objectives and value creation. With the assistance of the RMC, the Board determines the Company’s risk appetite, assesses the Group’s risk profile, material risks, and mitigation plan, provides advice to Management in formulating the risk management framework, policies and guidelines, and oversees Management in the implementation of the risk management systems. The Company has adopted an enterprise-wide risk management framework (“ERM Framework”) to enhance its risk management capabilities. The Board is assisted by the RMC to oversee the ERM Framework. Key risks, mitigating measures and management actions are continually identified, reviewed and monitored as part of the ERM Framework. Where applicable, financial and operational key risk indicators are put in place to track key risk exposures. Apart from the ERM Framework, key business risks are thoroughly assessed by Management and each significant transaction is comprehensively analysed so that Management understands the risks involved before it is embarked upon. An outline of the Group’s ERM Framework is set out on pages 178 to 180. Periodic updates are provided to the RMC on the Group’s risk profile. These updates include assessments of the Group’s key risks by major business units, highlights of emerging risks, the implementation status of the risk mitigation plan and changes in plans undertaken by Management to manage key risks, as well as reports on risk tolerance status. The Group’s risk tolerance statements have been developed by Management, and approved by the RMC on behalf of the Board. The risk tolerance statements set out the nature and extent of the significant risks that the Group is willing to take in achieving its strategic objectives. The accompanying risk tolerance thresholds, which set the risk boundaries in various financial and operational areas, are reviewed and monitored closely by Management, and reported to the RMC. The tolerance statements and risk thresholds are revised annually to ensure they are aligned with the Group’s business strategies. Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT2 0 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D Internal Controls The AC, on behalf of the Board, undertakes the monitoring and review of the system of internal controls. The AC, with the assistance of internal and external auditors, reviews and reports to the Board on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s system of controls, including financial, operational, compliance and information technology controls, established by Management, and highlights to the Board any significant findings. In assessing the effectiveness of internal controls, the AC ensures primarily that key objectives are met, material assets are properly safeguarded, fraud or errors in the accounting records are prevented or detected, accounting records are accurate and complete, and reliable financial information is prepared in compliance with applicable internal policies, laws and regulations. To assist the Board in ascertaining the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s internal controls, Management has in place a control self-assessment exercise for key areas of the business and operations to self-evaluate the internal controls status. Management also separately maps out key operational risks with the existing assurance processes in a comfort matrix every year. Using a comfort matrix of key risks, the material financial, operational, compliance and information technology risks of the Company are documented by the business units and presented against strategies, policies, people, processes, systems, mechanisms and reporting processes that have been put in place. Management Assurance The heads of business units are required to provide the Company with written assurances as to the adequacy and effectiveness of their system of internal controls and risk management. Assurances are also sought from the Company’s internal auditors based on their independent assessments. The Board has received the relevant assurances from: Financial Records and Financial Statements (a) the Group CEO and the Group CFO that as at 30 September 2020, the financial records of the Group have been properly maintained and the financial statements for FY2020 give a true and fair view of the Group’s operations and finances; System of Internal Controls (b) (c) the Group CEO, the Group CCO, the Group CFO and the Group CIO, that the system of internal controls in place for the Group is adequate and effective as at 30 September 2020 to address financial, operational, compliance and information technology risks which the Group considers relevant and material to its operations; and the CEOs of each of the Group’s strategic business units (“SBU CEOs”) that the system of internal controls in place for their respective strategic business units is adequate and effective as at 30 September 2020 to address financial, operational, compliance and information technology risks for their respective strategic business units which the Group considers relevant and material to its operations; and (i) (ii) the Group CEO, the Group CCO, the Group CFO and the Group CIO, that the risk management system in place for the Group is adequate and effective as at 30 September 2020 to address risks which the Group considers relevant and material to its operations; and each of the SBU CEOs that the risk management system in place for their respective strategic business units is adequate and effective as at 30 September 2020 to address risks for their respective strategic business units which the Group considers relevant and material to its operations. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 0 7 Board’s Comment Based on the internal controls established and maintained by the Group, work performed by internal and external auditors, reviews performed by Management and various Board Committees and the relevant assurances from the Group CEO, the Group CCO, the Group CFO, the Group CIO and the SBU CEOs, the Board is of the view that the Group’s internal controls were adequate and effective as at 30 September 2020 to address financial, operational, compliance and information technology risks, which the Group considers relevant and material to its operations. Based on the Enterprise-wide risk management framework established and adopted by the Company, review performed by Management and the relevant assurances from the Group CEO, the Group CCO, the Group CFO, the Group CIO and the SBU CEOs, the Board is of the view that the Group’s risk management system was adequate and effective as at 30 September 2020 to address risks which the Group considers relevant and material to its operations. The Board notes that the system of internal controls and risk management provides reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the Group will not be adversely affected by any event that could be reasonably foreseen as it works to achieve its business objectives. In this regard, the Board also notes that no system of internal controls and risk management can provide absolute assurance against the occurrence of material errors, poor judgment in decision making, human error, losses, fraud or other irregularities. The AC concurs with the Board’s view that as at 30 September 2020, the Group’s internal controls (including financial, operational, compliance and information technology controls) and risk management systems were adequate and effective to address risks which the Group considers relevant and material to its operations. Internal Audit The Group’s internal audit department (“FPL Group IA”) is responsible for conducting objective and independent assessments on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s system of internal controls, risk management and governance practices. The Head of the FPL Group IA reports directly to the Chairman of the AC and administratively, to the Group CEO. The appointment and removal of the Head of the FPL Group IA requires the approval of the AC. In performing internal audit services, FPL Group IA has adopted, and complies with, the Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing set by The Institute of Internal Auditors, Inc. FPL Group IA comprises 22 professional staff. The Head of FPL Group IA and the Singapore-based FPL Group IA staff are members of The Institute of Internal Auditors, Singapore. To ensure that the internal audit activities are effectively performed, FPL Group IA recruits and employs suitably qualified staff with the requisite skills and experience. Such staff are given relevant training and development opportunities to update their technical knowledge and auditing skills. All staff members of FPL Group IA also receive relevant technical training and attend seminars organised by The Institute of Internal Auditors, Singapore and other professional bodies. FPL Group IA operates within the framework of a set of terms of reference as contained in the Internal Audit Charter approved by the AC. The FPL Group IA function adopts a risk-based audit methodology to develop its audit plans, and its activities are aligned to key risks of the Group. Risk assessments are carried out on all key business processes and the results of the risk assessments are used to determine the intensity and the frequency of the reviews to be performed. Higher risk areas are subject to more intense and frequent reviews. FPL Group IA conducts its reviews based on internal audit plan approved by the AC. FPL Group IA has unfettered access to all the Group companies’ documents, records, properties and personnel, including access to the AC members. All audit reports detailing audit findings and recommendations are provided to Management who would respond with the actions to be taken. Each quarter, FPL Group IA will submit reports to the AC on the status of the audit plans and on audit findings and actions taken by Management on such findings. Key findings are highlighted at AC meetings for discussion. The AC monitors the timely and proper implementation of the required follow-up measures undertaken by Management. The AC is satisfied that the internal audit function is independent and effective and that FPL Group IA has adequate resources and appropriate standing within the Group to perform its functions effectively. Quality assurance reviews on the Group’s internal audit function are periodically carried out by qualified professionals from an external organisation. The last review was performed in January 2018. Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT2 0 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D Interested Person Transactions Pursuant to Rule 920(2) of the SGX-ST Listing Manual, the Company may obtain a general mandate as having from Shareholders (“Shareholders’ Mandate”) for it to enter into interested person transactions with its interested persons. The Company has an internal control system in place to ensure that the types of transactions to which the Shareholders’ Mandate will apply (the “Mandated Transactions”), with the Mandated Interested Persons2 are made on normal commercial terms, supported by independent valuation where appropriate, and consistent with the Group’s usual policies and practices. In general, there are procedures established by the EAR Group3 to ensure that General Transactions with Mandated Interested Persons are undertaken on an arm’s length basis and on normal commercial terms consistent with the EAR Group’s usual business practices and policies, which are generally no more favourable to the Mandated Interested Persons than those extended to unrelated third parties. In addition, specific review and approval procedures with threshold limits apply to the Mandated Transactions. The Company maintains a register of Mandated Transactions carried out with Mandated Interested Persons (recording the basis, including the quotations obtained to support such basis, on which they are entered into), and the Company’s annual internal audit plan will incorporate a review of all Mandated Transactions entered into in the relevant financial year pursuant to the Shareholders’ Mandate. The AC reviews the internal audit reports on Mandated Transactions to ascertain that the guidelines and review procedures for Mandated Transactions have been complied with. If during any of the reviews by the AC, the AC is of the view that the guidelines and review procedures for Mandated Transactions have become inappropriate or insufficient in the event of changes to the nature of, or manner in which, the business activities of the Group or the Mandated Interested Persons are conducted, the Company will revert to Shareholders for a fresh general mandate based on new guidelines and review procedures so that Mandated Transactions will be carried out at arm’s length, on commercial terms and will not be prejudicial to the interests of the Company and its minority Shareholders. All other existing and future interested person transactions not subject to the Shareholders’ Mandate will be reviewed and approved in accordance with the prevailing rules and regulations of the SGX-ST (in particular, Chapter 9 of the Listing Manual) to ensure that they are carried out on normal commercial terms and are not prejudicial to the interests of the Company and its minority Shareholders. In the event that such interested person transactions require the approval of the Board and the AC, relevant information will be submitted to the Board and the AC for review. In the event that such interested person transactions require the approval of Shareholders, additional information may be required to be presented to Shareholders and an independent financial adviser may be appointed for an opinion. Directors who are interested in any interested person transactions to be entered into by the Company are required to abstain from any deliberations or decisions in relation to that interested person transaction. Whistle-Blowing Policy The Company has in place a whistle-blowing policy (the “Whistle-Blowing Policy”). The Whistle-Blowing Policy provides an independent feedback channel through which matters of concern about possible improprieties in matters of financial reporting, suspected fraud and corruption or other matters may be raised by employees and any other persons in confidence and in good faith, without fear of reprisal. Whistle-blowers may report any matters of concern by mail, electronic mail or by calling a hotline, details of which are provided in the Whistle-Blowing Policy, which is made available on the Company’s website. Any report submitted through this channel would be received by the Head of FPL Group IA. For employees, the Whistle-Blowing Policy provides assurance that employees will be treated fairly, and protected from reprisals or victimisation for whistle-blowing in good faith. 2 3 The Shareholders’ Mandate will apply to the transactions that are carried out with Thai Beverage Public Company Limited, TCC Assets Limited, Fraser and Neave, Limited, the Directors and their respective associates (the “Mandated Interested Persons”). For the purposes of the Shareholders’ Mandate, an “Entity At Risk” mean (i) the Company, (ii) a subsidiary of the Company that is not listed on the SGX-ST or an approved exchange; or (iii) an associated company of the Company that is not listed on the SGX-ST or an approved exchange, provided that the Company and its interested person(s), have control over the associated company (collectively, the “EAR Group”). CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 0 9 The improprieties that are reportable under the Whistle-Blowing Policy include: (a) financial or professional misconduct; (b) improper conduct, dishonest, fraudulent or unethical behaviour; (c) any irregularity or non-compliance with laws/ regulations or the Company’s policies and procedures, and/or internal controls; (d) violence at the workplace, or any conduct that may threaten health and safety; (e) corruption or bribery; (f) conflicts of interest; and (g) any other improprieties or matters that may adversely affect Shareholders’ interest in, and assets of, the Company and its reputation. The Whistle-Blowing Policy is covered during staff training. All whistle-blowing complaints raised are investigated and if appropriate, an independent investigation committee constituted. The outcome of each investigation and any action taken is reported to the AC. The AC reviews and ensures that independent investigations and any appropriate follow-up actions are carried out. SHAREHOLDER MATTERS The Company treats all Shareholders fairly and equitably in order to enable them to exercise their Shareholders’ rights and have the opportunity to communicate their views on matters affecting the Company. Investor Relations The Company prides itself on its high standards of disclosure and corporate transparency. FPL aims to provide fair, relevant, comprehensive and timely information regarding the Group’s performance and progress and matters concerning the Group and its business which are likely to materially affect the price of the Shares and other securities of the Company, to Shareholders and the investment community, to enable them to make informed investment decisions. The Group’s dedicated Investor Relations (“IR”) team is tasked with, and focuses on, facilitating communications between the Company and its Shareholders, as well as with the investment community. The Company has an IR policy which allows for an ongoing exchange of views so as to actively engage and promote regular, effective and fair communication with Shareholders. Frank and informed dialogue between the Company and Shareholders is a central tenet of good corporate governance, and encourages more active stewardship. Better engagement between these parties will thus benefit the Company and investors. The IR team communicates regularly with Shareholders, as well as with the investment community, through timely disclosures of material and other pertinent information to the SGX-ST, and quarterly briefings and conference calls for results and business updates. The IR team also conducts roadshows (together with senior Management), and participates in investor seminars and conferences to keep the market and investors apprised of the Group’s corporate developments and financial performance. During the year, the IR team, together with senior Management, engaged with Singapore and foreign investors virtually at conferences, briefings and calls, non-deal roadshows as well as one-on-one and group meetings. In addition, to keep investors informed of material developments concerning the Group in view of the COVID-19 situation, the Company released updates by way of press releases and voluntary business updates which include the impact of the pandemic on the Group’s business operations and performance. The aim of such engagement is to provide Shareholders and investors with prompt disclosure of relevant information, to enable them to have a better understanding of the Company’s businesses and performance. The Company makes available all its briefing materials to analysts and the media, webcasts of its half-year and full-year results briefings, its financial information, its annual reports, and all announcements to the SGX-ST on its website at https://www.frasersproperty.com. The Company maintains and regularly updates its corporate website to communicate and engage with Shareholders and other stakeholders. Further details on the various activities organised by IR during the year can be found in the IR section of the FY2020 Annual Report on pages 120 to 121. The contact details of the IR team for Shareholders, investors and other stakeholders to channel their comments and queries can be found on the Company’s website, as well as in the IR section of the FY2020 Annual Report on pages 120 to 121. Contents CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT 2 1 0 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D An electronic copy of the FY2020 Annual Report has been uploaded on the Company’s website. Shareholders can access the FY2020 Annual Report (printed copies are available upon request) at https://investor.frasersproperty.com/ publications.html. Conduct of General Meetings In view of the COVID-19 pandemic, the forthcoming 57th Annual General Meeting (“AGM 2021”) will be held on 22 January 2021 via electronic means pursuant to the COVID-19 (Temporary Measures) (Alternative Arrangements for Meetings for Companies, Variable Capital Companies, Business Trusts, Unit Trusts and Debenture Holders) Order 2020 (“COVID-19 Temporary Measures Order”). Alternative arrangements relating to attendance at the AGM 2021 via electronic means (including arrangements by which the meeting can be electronically accessed via live audio-visual webcast or live audio only stream, submission of questions in advance of the AGM 2021, addressing of substantial and relevant questions prior to or at the AGM 2021 and voting by appointing the chairman of the meeting as proxy at the AGM 2021, are set out in the Company’s announcement dated 23 December 2020. The description below sets out the Company’s usual practice for Shareholders’ meetings when there are no pandemic risks and the COVID-19 Temporary Measures Order is not in operation. The Board supports and encourages active shareholder participation at AGMs as it believes that general meetings serve as an opportune forum for Shareholders to meet the Board and senior Management, and to interact with them. Shareholders are given the opportunity to participate effectively and vote at general meetings of the Company, where relevant rules and procedures governing such meetings (for instance, how to vote) are clearly communicated prior to the start of the meeting. The Company’s Constitution allows (a) each Shareholder who is not a relevant intermediary (as defined in the Companies Act) the right to appoint up to two proxies and (b) each Shareholder who is a relevant intermediary to appoint more than two proxies to attend and vote on their behalf in Shareholders’ meetings. At general meetings, the Company sets out separate resolutions on each substantially separate matter. Shareholders are given the opportunity to raise questions and clarify any issues that they may have relating to the resolutions sought to be passed. For greater transparency, the Company has implemented electronic poll voting at AGMs. This entails Shareholders being invited to vote on each of the resolutions by poll, using an electronic voting system (instead of voting by hands), thereby allowing all Shareholders present or represented at the meeting to vote on a one share, one vote basis. The voting results of all votes cast for, against, or abstaining from each resolution is then screened at the meeting and announced to the SGX-ST after the meeting. An independent external party is appointed as scrutineer for the electronic voting process to count and validate the votes at general meetings. The Company will continue to use the electronic poll voting system at the forthcoming AGM. As the authentication of shareholder identity and other related security and integrity issues remain a concern, the Company has decided for the time being, not to implement absentia voting methods such as voting via mail, e-mail or fax. At the AGM, a presentation is made to Shareholders to update on the Company’s performance, position and prospects. The links to the presentation materials are made available on SGXNet and the Company’s website for the benefit of Shareholders. Board members and senior Management are present at each Shareholders’ meeting to respond to any questions from Shareholders, unless they are unable to attend due to exigencies. The Company’s external auditors are also present to address queries about the conduct of audit and the preparation and content of the auditors’ report. The minutes of Shareholders’ meetings which capture the attendance of Board members at the meetings, matters approved by Shareholders, voting results and substantial and relevant comments or queries from Shareholders relating to the agenda of the general meeting together with responses from the Board and Management, are prepared by the Company. These minutes are published on the Company’s website as soon as practicable. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORTA N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 1 1 Dividend Policy As previously disclosed in the Introductory Document issued by the Company on 28 October 2013 in connection with its listing on the SGX-ST, the Company intends to recommend dividends of up to 75% of its net profit after tax after considering factors such as its level of cash and reserves, results of operations, business prospects, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions, the absence of any circumstances which might reduce the amount of reserves available to pay dividends and other factors relevant to the Board (including the expected financial performance of the Company). The Company has recorded a historical payout ratio of 45% to 55% of APBFE before distribution to perpetual securities holders in the past financial years. In view of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on earnings and in keeping with the Group’s conservation of financial resources given the unprecedented crisis and uncertainties ahead, for FY2020, the Board has proposed a first and final dividend of 1.5 Singapore cents per Share (representing 19% of APBFE before distribution to perpetual securities holders) to be approved at the AGM to be held on 22 January 2021. STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT The Board adopts an inclusive approach by considering and balancing the needs and interests of material stakeholders, as part of its overall responsibility to ensure that the best interests of the Company are served. Code of Business Conduct The Company’s business practices have been governed by integrity, honesty, fair dealing and compliance with applicable laws. To guide the Group’s employees across its multi-national network to uphold these values, the Company has established the FPL Code of Business Conduct to provide clear guidelines on ethics and relationships to safeguard the interests and reputation of the Group, as well as stakeholders of FPL. The Code of Business Conduct has been recently updated in FY2020 to keep current with today’s business practices and requirements. The updated policy covers key aspects such as avoiding conflicts of interest, working with external stakeholders (customers, suppliers, busines partners, governments and regulatory officials), protecting company’s assets, social media engagement, data privacy and upholding laws in countries where the Group has geographical presence in. The updated Code of Business Conduct also emphasises the importance of upholding the Company’s core values to build a respectful culture. Employees are encouraged to be respectful to the elements that make people similar or different from one another, including background, views, experiences, capabilities, values, beliefs, physical differences, ethnicity and culture, gender, age, thinking styles, preferences and behaviours.

The RSP and PSP are administered by the Remuneration Committee which, as at the date of this statement, comprise the following three non-executive directors who do not participate in the Share Plans: Mr Philip Eng Heng Nee (Chairman) Mr Charles Mak Ming Ying Mr Chan Heng Wing A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 1 9 DIRECTORS’ STATEMENT 5. SHARE OPTIONS AND SHARE PLANS (CONT’D) (c) Share Grants under RSP and PSP Under the RSP and PSP, the Company grants awards to eligible participants annually, referred to herein as “RSP Awards” and “PSP Awards”, respectively. The grant (“Initial Award”) represents the right to receive fully paid shares, their equivalent cash value or combinations thereof, free of charge, provided that certain prescribed performance conditions are met. The Remuneration Committee that administers this scheme has absolute discretion in the granting of awards under the RSP and PSP. The vesting of the RSP Initial Award and the PSP Initial Award are conditional on the achievement of pre-determined targets set for a one-year performance period and a three-year performance period, respectively. An achievement factor will be determined based on the level of achievement of the pre-determined targets at the end of the respective performance period. The achievement factor will be applied to the relevant Initial Award to determine the final number of shares to vest under the RSP Awards and PSP Awards (as the case may be, the “Final Award”). The achievement factor ranges from 0% to 150% for RSP and from 0% to 200% for PSP. At the end of the performance period and after the achievement factor is determined, 1/3 of the RSP Final Awards will be released upon vesting and the balance will be released in equal number of shares over the subsequent two years upon the fulfilment of service requirements. All PSP Final Awards will be released to the participants at the end of the three-year performance period upon vesting. Pre-determined targets over the performance period are set by the Remuneration Committee at their absolute discretion. For the RSP, the pre-set targets are based on the achievement of Attributable Profit Before Fair Value Change and Exceptional Items (APBFE) and Return on Capital Employed (ROCE). For the PSP, the pre-set targets are based on Return on Invested Capital (ROIC), Total Shareholders’ Return Relative to FTSE ST Real Estate Index and Absolute Shareholders’ Return as a multiple of Cost of Equity. No awards have been granted to controlling shareholders or their associates, or parent group directors and employees under the RSP and PSP. No awards have been granted to directors of the Company. No employee other than Mr Rod Fehring, Chief Executive Officer of Frasers Property Australia, has received 5% or more of the total number of shares available/delivered for the financial year ended 30 September 2020 and in his case, its equivalent in cash(1), pursuant to grants under the RSP.

AUDITORS The auditors, KPMG LLP, have expressed their willingness to accept re-appointment as auditors. On behalf of the Board Charles Mak Ming Ying Director Singapore 24 November 2020 Panote Sirivadhanabhakdi Director and Group Chief Executive Officer A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 2 1 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY FRASERS PROPERTY LIMITED REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Opinion We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Frasers Property Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet of the Group and balance sheet of the Company as at 30 September 2020, the consolidated profit statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity, and consolidated cash flow statement of the Group, and statement of changes in equity of the Company for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, as set out on pages 227 to 357. In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group and the balance sheet and statement of changes in equity of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the “Act”) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) (“SFRS(I)s”) so as to give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group and the financial position of the Company as at 30 September 2020 and of the consolidated financial performance, consolidated changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group and the changes in equity of the Company for the year ended on that date. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing (“SSAs”). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the ‘Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements’ section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (“ACRA”) Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics for Public Accountants and Accounting Entities (“ACRA Code”), together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Singapore, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the ACRA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Valuation of investment properties (Refer to Note 11 to the financial statements) Risk: The Group owns a portfolio of investment properties (including investment properties under construction) comprising retail, commercial, industrial & logistics and service residences properties that are leased to third parties under operating leases, located mainly in Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and the United Kingdom. Investment properties represent the largest category of assets on the balance sheet, at $21.9 billion (2019: $22.6 billion) as at 30 September 2020. These investment properties are stated at their fair values based on independent external valuations except for certain overseas properties whereby valuations are performed internally. In addition, investment properties under construction are stated at their fair values as determined by valuers which involve estimating the fair value of the completed investment property and then deducting from that amount the estimated costs to complete the construction and a reasonable market-based profit margin on the construction and development. The valuation process involves significant judgement in determining the appropriate valuation methodology to be used, and in estimating the underlying assumptions to be applied. The valuations are sensitive to key assumptions applied in deriving future cash flows, the capitalisation rates, discount rates and terminal yield rates; where a change in the assumptions can have a significant impact to the valuation. Contents 2 2 2 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY FRASERS PROPERTY LIMITED Certain valuation reports obtained from the external valuers also highlighted that given the unprecedented set of circumstances due to the Coronavirus Disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic on which to base a judgement, less certainty, and a higher degree of caution, should be attached to their valuations than would normally be the case. Due to the unknown future impact that COVID-19 pandemic might have on the real estate market, the external valuers have also recommended to keep the valuation of these properties under frequent review. Our response: We evaluated the qualifications and competence of the valuers and held discussions with the valuers to understand their valuation methods and assumptions and basis used, where appropriate. We considered the valuation methodologies used against those applied by valuers for similar property types. We tested the integrity of inputs of the projected cash flows used in the valuation to supporting leases and other documents. We evaluated the appropriateness of the discount, capitalisation and terminal yield rates used in the valuation by comparing them against historical rates and available industry data, taking into consideration comparability and market factors. Where the rates were outside the expected range, we undertook further procedures to understand the effect of additional factors and, when necessary, held further discussions with the valuers. In addition, for investment properties under construction, we evaluated the estimated cost to complete by comparing the cost incurred to date to management budgets and, where the works were contracted to third parties, agreed to the contracts. We have also tested significant items of the cost components to source documents to ascertain the existence and accuracy of those cost components. We also discussed with management and the external valuers to understand how they have considered the implications of COVID-19 and market uncertainty in the valuations. Our findings: We found the valuers to be objective and competent. The valuers are members of generally-recognised professional bodies for valuers. The valuation methodologies used are in line with generally accepted market practices and the key assumptions used are within the range of market data. For investment properties under construction, the estimated cost to complete were found to be supported. Valuation of intangible assets (Refer to Note 16 to the financial statements) Risk: The Group has goodwill and other intangible assets relating to brands and favourable leases, management contracts and others with an aggregate carrying value of $633.6 million (2019: $611.2 million) as at 30 September 2020. These assets are impaired when their individual carrying value or the carrying value of the cash generating unit (“CGU”) of which the goodwill or intangible asset is allocated to, exceeds their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of their fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Estimating the recoverable amount involves significant judgement in determining an appropriate model and the underlying assumptions to be applied; coupled with the inherent estimation uncertainties that arise when estimating and discounting future cash flows. The recoverable amount is sensitive to inputs and assumptions underlying the models used. Some of the key inputs and assumptions relate to expectations of future cash flows, growth rates used for extrapolation purposes and discount rates. Our response: We evaluated the Group’s methodology and identification of CGU and assessed indicators of impairment for intangible assets where appropriate. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 2 3 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY FRASERS PROPERTY LIMITED For goodwill, intangible assets with infinite useful life and intangible assets with indicators of impairment, we evaluated the cash flows used in the model against the understanding we obtained about the business through our audit and assess if these cash flows were reasonable. We challenged the appropriateness of key assumptions used by the Group in its impairment testing comprising the discount rate and growth rate by comparing these to externally available market data for reasonableness. We also assessed whether or not the assumptions showed any evidence of management bias with a particular focus on the risk that the forecasted cash flows may not support the carrying value of the intangible assets. Our findings: The methodology and model used by the Group is supported by generally accepted market practices. We found the key assumptions and resulting estimates that were made in the determination of the recoverable amounts to be supported by recent historical operating statistics and market data. Valuation of development properties held for sale (Refer to Note 19 to the financial statements) Risk: The Group has significant residential, industrial and commercial properties held for sale located primarily in Australia, China, Singapore, Thailand and the United Kingdom. These properties have a carrying value of $5.9 billion as at 30 September 2020 (2019: $5.0 billion) and are stated at the lower of their cost and their net realisable values. In arriving at estimates of net realisable values, the Group considered comparable properties and the recent selling prices less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The determination of the estimated net realisable value of these properties is critically dependent upon the Group’s expectations of future selling prices. Our response: We compared the Group’s forecast selling prices to recently transacted prices and prices of comparable properties located in the same vicinity as the development or completed project. We focused our work on projects with slower- than-expected sales or with low or negative margins. For projects with units which are expected to sell below costs, we checked the computations of the foreseeable losses. Our findings: In estimating future selling price for the purpose of management’s assessment, the Group takes into account macroeconomic and real estate price trend information and planned capital management considerations. Management has applied its knowledge of the business in its regular review of these estimates. We found that reasonable estimates were made in the determination of net realisable values and allowance for foreseeable losses. Valuation of property, plant and equipment (Refer to Note 12 to the financial statements) Risk: As at 30 September 2020, the property, plant and equipment relating to the Group’s portfolio of hotel properties has an aggregate carrying value of $2.2 billion (2019: $2.0 billion). Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and are subject to an annual review to assess if there are indicators of impairment. With the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, the Group undertook an impairment assessment and recognised an impairment loss on its hotel properties. Contents 2 2 4 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY FRASERS PROPERTY LIMITED The process of identifying indicators of impairment and assessing the recoverable amount of each hotel property involves significant judgement in determining an appropriate model and the underlying assumptions to be applied; coupled with the inherent estimation uncertainties that arise when estimating and discounting future cash flows. The recoverable amount of a hotel property is the higher of its fair value less cost to sell and value in use. The recoverable amount is sensitive to inputs and assumptions underlying the models used. Some of the key inputs and assumptions relate to expectations of future cash flows, growth rates used for extrapolation purposes, discount rates and terminal yield rates. Where the recoverable amount of the hotel properties is based on independent external valuations, certain valuation reports obtained from the external valuers also highlighted that given the unprecedented set of circumstances due to the COVID-19 pandemic on which to base a judgement, less certainty, and a higher degree of caution, should be attached to their valuations than would normally be the case. Due to the unknown future impact that COVID-19 pandemic might have on the real estate market, the external valuers have also recommended to keep the valuation of these properties under frequent review. Our response: We evaluated the Group’s process for identification of indicators of impairment. We considered the valuation methods used against those applied for similar property types. We compared the key assumptions used in estimating the recoverable amounts, which included discount rates, capitalisation rates, average room rates, average occupancy rates and growth rates, by comparing them to available industry data, taking into consideration comparability and market factors. We also discussed with management and the external valuers on how they have considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and market uncertainty in arriving at the recoverable amounts. Our findings: The Group has a structured process in place to periodically identify indicators of impairment of the hotels and the methods used are in line with generally accepted market practices. We found that the key assumptions and resulting estimates made in the determination of the recoverable amounts to be supported by recent historical operating statistics and relevant market data. Other information Management is responsible for the other information contained in the annual report. Other information is defined as all information in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon. We have obtained the Corporate Profile, The Group Strategy, Our Businesses, Our Multi-national Presence, Our Milestones, Group Structure, Financial Highlights, Board of Directors, Group Management, Corporate Information, Chairman’s Statement, In Conversation with the Group CEO, Business Review, Investor Relations, Treasury Highlights, Sustainability Report, Awards and Accolades, Enterprise-wide Risk Management, Corporate Governance Report, Directors’ Statement, Particulars of Group Properties, Interested Person Transactions and FPL Fact Sheet prior to the date of this auditors’ report. The Shareholding Statistics and Trends View are expected to be made available to us after that date. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditors’ report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. When we read the other information made available to us after the date of this report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to the directors of the Company and take appropriate actions in accordance with SSAs. A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 2 5 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY FRASERS PROPERTY LIMITED Responsibilities of management and directors for the financial statements Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Act and SFRS(I)s, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair financial statements and to maintain accountability of assets. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The directors’ responsibilities include overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process. Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with SSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • • • • • • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal controls. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. Contents 2 2 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY FRASERS PROPERTY LIMITED We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal controls that we identify during our audit. We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS In our opinion, the accounting and other records required by the Act to be kept by the Company and by those subsidiary corporations incorporated in Singapore of which we are the auditors have been properly kept in accordance with the provisions of the Act. The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report is Ronald Tay Ser Teck.

The financial statements for the financial year ended 30 September 2020 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 24 November 2020. 1. CORPORATE INFORMATION Frasers Property Limited (the “Company”) is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Singapore. On 9 January 2014, the Company commenced trading on the Main Board of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGX-ST”). TCC Assets Limited, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, is the immediate and ultimate holding company. The registered office and principal place of business of the Company is located at 438 Alexandra Road, #21-00 Alexandra Point, Singapore 119958. The principal activity of the Company is investment holding. The principal activities of the significant subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates are set out in Note 40. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 2.1 Basis of Preparation The complete set of consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group”) and the Group’s interest in equity-accounted investees as at and for the year ended 30 September 2020 are prepared in accordance with Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) (“SFRS(I)”). SFRS(I) are issued by the Accounting Standards Council and comprise standards and interpretations that are equivalent to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (“IASB”). All references to SFRS(I) and IFRS are subsequently referred to as SFRS(I) in these financial statements unless otherwise stated. The consolidated financial statements of the Group and the balance sheet and statement of changes in equity of the Company are prepared on the historical cost basis except as disclosed in the accounting policies below. The financial statements are presented in Singapore Dollars (“$” or “S$”). All financial information presented in Singapore Dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated. The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, unless otherwise indicated in Note 41. This is the first set of the Group’s annual financial statements in which SFRS(I) 16 Leases has been applied. The accounting policies have been applied consistently by Group entities. Contents 2 3 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.2 Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with SFRS(I) requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the reporting date. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities, and which are not readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and underlying assumptions are revised on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised, if the revisions affect only that period, or in the period of the revisions and future periods, if the revisions affect both current and future periods. Impact of COVID-19 on the Group The World Health Organization declared a global pandemic in March 2020 as a result of COVID-19. The effects of this health crisis are continuing to unfold and the ultimate extent of the social, medical and economic impacts worldwide are unknown. The Group has considered the impact of COVID-19 in preparing its financial report for the year. The critical accounting estimates and key judgement areas of the Group have required additional consideration and analysis due to the impact of COVID-19. Given the uncertainty of the extent of the pandemic, changes to the estimates and outcomes that have been applied in the measurement of the Group’s assets and liabilities may arise in the future. Other than adjusting events that provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the financial year, the impact of events that arise after the reporting period will be accounted for in future reporting periods. The impact of COVID-19 increases the level of judgement required across a number of key areas for the Group, in particular the recognition and measurement of the assets of the Group. The COVID-19 assumptions and considerations for the critical accounting estimates and key judgement areas of the Group are outlined in further detail in the following sections of this financial report: – – Property, plant and equipment (Note 12(c)) Determination of fair value of investment properties (Note 35(c)(iv)) (a) Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 3 9 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.2 Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates (cont’d) (a) Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (cont’d) Valuation of Completed Investment Properties The Group’s completed investment properties are stated at their fair values, which are determined annually. The fair values are based on independent professional valuations conducted annually, except for certain overseas properties whereby valuations are performed internally every year and at least once every two years; independent professional valuations are obtained for cross-checking purposes. The fair value of completed investment properties is determined using a combination of the market comparison method, discounted cash flow method and capitalisation method. The independent valuers have considered available information as at 30 September 2020 relating to COVID-19 and have made necessary adjustments due to the COVID-19 pandemic to the valuation. The valuation reports also highlighted that given the unprecedented set of circumstances on which to base a judgement, less certainty, and a higher degree of caution, should be attached to their valuations than would normally be the case. Due to the unknown future impact that COVID-19 might have on the real estate market, the external valuers have also recommended to keep the valuation of these properties under frequent review. These estimated market values may differ from the prices at which the Group’s completed investment properties could be sold at a particular time, since actual selling prices are negotiated between willing buyers and sellers. Also, certain estimates require an assessment of factors not within the directors’ control, such as overall market conditions. As a result, actual results of operations and realisation of these completed investment properties could differ from the estimates set forth in these financial statements, and the difference could be significant. The carrying amount of completed investment properties is disclosed in Note 11. The Group’s valuation policies and procedures are disclosed in Notes 11 and 35. Valuation of Investment Properties under Construction (“IPUC”) IPUC are measured at fair value if they can be reliably determined. If fair values cannot be reliably determined, then IPUC are recorded at cost. The fair values of IPUC are determined using a combination of market comparison method, discounted cash flow method, capitalisation method and residual land value method which considers the significant risks which are relevant to the development process, including but not limited to construction and letting risks. The Group’s valuation policies and procedures are disclosed in Notes 11 and 35. Net Realisable Value of Properties Held for Sale Properties held for sale are carried at lower of cost and net realisable value. A write-down to net realisable value is made for properties held for sale when the net realisable value has fallen below cost. In arriving at estimates of net realisable values, management considers factors such as current market conditions, recent selling prices of the development properties and comparable development properties less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The carrying amount of properties held for sale is disclosed in Note 19.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.2 Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates (cont’d) (a) Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (cont’d) Impairment of Intangible Assets Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm’s length, for similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for disposing of the asset. The value-in-use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model. The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five to ten years and do not include restructuring activities that the Group is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the asset’s performance of the CGU being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the DCF model as well as the expected future cash inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes. These estimates are most relevant to goodwill, brands and management contracts recognised by the Group. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different CGUs are disclosed and further explained in Note 16. The valuations of the goodwill arising from business combinations, brands and management contracts are disclosed in Notes 16 and 39. Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses and are subject to annual review to assess if there are indicators of impairment. Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined based on independent professional or internal valuation using DCF method. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate and terminal yield rate used for the DCF method as well as the expected future cash flows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes. These estimates are most relevant to the Group’s portfolio of hotel properties. Where the recoverable amount of the hotel properties is based on independent external valuations, certain valuation reports obtained from the external valuers also highlighted that given the unprecedented set of circumstances due to the COVID-19 pandemic on which to base a judgement, less certainty, and a higher degree of caution, should be attached to their valuations than would normally be the case. Due to the unknown future impact that COVID-19 might have on the real estate market, the external valuers have also recommended to keep the valuation of these properties under frequent review. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the hotel properties are disclosed and further explained in Note 12. Income Taxes The Group has exposure to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant assumptions are required in determining the group-wide provision for income taxes. The ultimate tax determination of taxability of income and deductibility of expenses from certain transactions are uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The tax computations of newly created tax consolidated groups arising from business combinations would also be subject to uncertainty and formal assessment by tax authorities. The Group recognises the liabilities for expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognised, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying amounts of provision for taxation, deferred tax assets and liabilities are as disclosed in the Group’s balance sheet. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 4 1 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.2 Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates (cont’d) (a) Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (cont’d) Land Appreciation Tax Under the Provisional Regulations on Land Appreciation Tax (“LAT”) implemented upon the issuance of the Provisional Regulations of the People’s Republic of China on 27 January 1995, all gains arising from the transfer of real estate property in China effective from 1 January 1994 are subject to LAT at progressive rates ranging from 30% to 60% on the appreciation of land value, being the proceeds of sales of properties less deductible expenditure including amortisation of land use rights, borrowing costs and all property development expenditure. The subsidiaries of the Group engaging in property development business in China are subject to land appreciation tax. However, the implementation of this tax varies amongst China cities and the Group has not finalised its land appreciation tax returns with various tax authorities. Accordingly, significant judgement is required in determining the amount of land appreciation and related taxes. The ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises these liabilities based on management’s best estimates. When the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the provisions for land appreciation tax and consequently, corporate income tax in the period in which such determination is made. Revenue Recognition and Estimation of Total Development Costs For Singapore property development projects under progressive payment scheme, the Group recognises revenue and cost of sales from development properties held for sale based on the percentage of completion method. The stage of completion is measured in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2.19. Estimates are required in determining the total estimated development costs which will affect the stage of completion. In making these assumptions, the Group relies on references to information such as current offers and/or recent contracts with contractors and suppliers, estimation of construction and material costs based on historical experience, and the work of professional surveyors and architects. Revenue from development properties held for sale is disclosed in Note 3. (b) Critical Judgements made in Applying Accounting Policies In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, apart from those involving estimations, which have significant effects on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements: Operating Lease Commitments – Group as Lessor The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its investment property portfolio. The Group has determined, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties which are leased out on operating leases. Classification of Property In determining whether a property is classified as investment property or property, plant and equipment, the Group determines the business model and how much space is allocated to ancillary services. The Group further analyses whether the quantum of other income derived from ancillary services rendered is significant as compared to total revenue and other qualitative factors such as the accommodation and amenities offerings.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.2 Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates (cont’d) (b) Critical Judgements made in Applying Accounting Policies (cont’d) Business Combinations The Group acquires subsidiaries that own real estate. At the time of acquisition, the Group considers whether each acquisition represents the acquisition of a business or the acquisition of an asset. The Group accounts for an acquisition as a business combination where an integrated set of activities is acquired in addition to the property. More specifically, consideration is made of the extent to which significant processes are acquired and, in particular, the extent of services provided by the subsidiary (e.g. maintenance, cleaning, security, bookkeeping, hotel services). For example, the Group assessed the acquisitions of the subsidiaries as disclosed in Note 39(a)(i) as purchases of businesses because of the strategic management function and associated processes purchased along with the investment and development properties. When the acquisition of a subsidiary does not represent a business, it is accounted for as an acquisition of a group of assets and liabilities. The cost of the acquisition is allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based upon their relative fair values, and no goodwill or deferred tax is recognised. 2.3 Basis of Consolidation and Business Combinations (a) Basis of Consolidation The financial year of the Company and all its subsidiaries ends on 30 September unless otherwise stated. The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and all its subsidiaries made up to 30 September. The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to any dissimilar material accounting policies to conform to the Group’s significant accounting policies. A list of the Group’s significant subsidiaries is disclosed in Note 40. The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as at the reporting date. All intra-group balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains and losses resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends are eliminated in full. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Losses within a subsidiary are attributed to the non-controlling interest (“NCI”) even if that results in a deficit balance. (b) Business Combinations Business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method. Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, incurred in connection with a business combination are recognised as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 4 3 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.3 Basis of Consolidation and Business Combinations (cont’d) (b) Business Combinations (cont’d) Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date and included in the consideration transferred. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration is recognised in the profit statement. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured until it is finally settled within equity. In business combinations achieved in stages, previously held equity interests in the acquiree are remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date and any corresponding gain or loss is recognised in the profit statement. The Group elects for each individual business combination, whether NCI in the acquiree (if any) that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of net assets in the event of liquidation, is recognised on the acquisition date at fair value, or at the NCI’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Other components of NCI are measured on their acquisition date at fair value, unless another measurement basis is required by another SFRS(I). Any excess of the sum of the fair value of the consideration transferred in the business combination, the amount of NCI in the acquiree (if any), and the fair value of the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), over the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The accounting policy for goodwill is disclosed in Note 2.11(a). When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase is recognised in the profit statement on the acquisition date. The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised in the profit statement. When share-based payment awards (“replacement awards”) are exchanged for awards held by the acquiree’s employees (“acquiree’s awards”) and relate to past services, then all or a portion of the amount of the acquirer’s replacement awards is included in measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination. This determination is based on the market-based value of the replacement awards compared with the market-based value of the acquiree’s awards and the extent to which the replacement awards relate to past and/or future service. Transactions with NCI NCI represent the equity in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to owners of the Company and are presented separately in the consolidated profit statement and consolidated statement of comprehensive income, and within equity in the consolidated balance sheet, separately from the equity attributable to owners of the Company. Changes in the Company’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. In such circumstances, the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the amount by which the NCI is adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributable to owners of the Company.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.3 Basis of Consolidation and Business Combinations (cont’d) (b) Business Combinations (cont’d) Loss of Control Upon the loss of control, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any NCI and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in the profit statement. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently, it is accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as a financial asset at fair value through other comprehensive income depending on the level of influence retained. A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction. Acquisitions before 1 October 2017 As part of transition to SFRS(I), the Group elected not to restate those business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to SFRS(I), i.e. 1 October 2017. Goodwill arising from acquisitions before 1 October 2017 has been carried forward from the previous FRS framework as at the date of transition. (c) Property Acquisitions and Business Combinations Where property is acquired, via corporate acquisitions or otherwise, management considers the substance of the assets and activities of the acquired entity in determining whether the acquisition represents the acquisition of a business. The basis of the judgement is set out in Note 2.2(b). Where such acquisitions are not judged to be an acquisition of a business, they are not treated as business combinations. In such cases, the acquirer shall identify and recognise the individual identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The cost to acquire the corporate entity is allocated between the identifiable assets and liabilities of the entity based on their relative fair values at the acquisition date. Such a transaction or event does not give rise to goodwill. (d) Acquisitions from Entities Under Common Control Business combinations arising from transfers of interests in entities that are under the control of the shareholder that controls the Group are accounted for as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the earliest comparative year presented or, if later, at the date that common control was acquired, are recognised at the carrying amounts recognised previously in the Group controlling shareholder’s consolidated financial statements. The components of equity of the acquired entities are added to the same components within Group equity and any gain/loss arising is recognised directly in equity. 2.4 Investments in Subsidiaries A subsidiary is an investee that is controlled by the Group. The Group controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. In the Company’s separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less impairment losses.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.5 Joint Arrangements and Associates A joint arrangement is a contractual arrangement whereby two or more parties have joint control. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. A joint arrangement is classified either as joint operation or joint venture, based on the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangement. To the extent the joint arrangement provides the Group with rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement, the arrangement is a joint operation. To the extent the joint arrangement provides the Group with rights to the net assets of the arrangement, the arrangement is a joint venture. (a) Joint Operations The Group recognises in relation to its interest in a joint operation, its: – – – – – assets, including its share of any assets held jointly; liabilities, including its share of any liabilities incurred jointly; revenue from the sale of its share of the output arising from the joint operation; share of the revenue from the sale of the output by the joint operation; and expenses, including its share of any expenses incurred jointly. The Group accounts for the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interests in a joint operation in accordance with the accounting policies applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. (b) Joint Ventures and Associates An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence over the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but does not have control or joint control of those policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when the Group holds 20% or more of the voting power of another entity. The Group accounts for its investments in associates and joint ventures using the equity method from the date on which it becomes an associate or joint venture. On acquisition of the investment, any excess of the cost of the investment over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the investee’s identifiable assets and liabilities is accounted as goodwill and is included in the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the investee’s identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment is included as income in the determination of the entity’s share of the associate’s or joint venture’s profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired. Contents NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 2 4 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.5 Joint Arrangements and Associates (cont’d) (b) Joint Ventures and Associates (cont’d) Under the equity method, the investments in associates or joint ventures are carried on the balance sheet at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associates or joint ventures. The profit statement reflects the share of results of the operations of the associates or joint ventures. Distributions received from associates or joint ventures reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Where there has been a change recognised in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) by the associates or joint ventures, the Group recognises its share of such changes in OCI. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and associates or joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associates or joint ventures. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate or joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an additional impairment loss on the Group’s investments in associates or joint ventures. The Group determines at the end of each reporting period whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or joint venture and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the profit statement. Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate or a joint venture is not recognised separately, and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an associate or a joint venture is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate or a joint venture may be impaired. The financial statements of joint ventures and associates are prepared at the same reporting date as the Group. Where the accounting period of the joint ventures and associates is not co-terminous with that of the Group, the share of results is arrived at from the last audited financial statements available and unaudited management financial statements to the end of the accounting period. Where necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Group. In the Company’s separate financial statements, interests in joint ventures and associates are carried at cost less impairment losses. 2.6 Investment Properties (a) Completed Investment Properties Completed investment properties are held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both, rather than for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for administrative purposes, or for sale in the ordinary course of business and are treated as non-current assets. Completed investment properties are measured at cost on initial recognition. Costs include expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of investment properties. Subsequent to recognition, completed investment properties are measured at fair value and gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of completed investment properties are included in the profit statement in the year in which they arise. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 4 7 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.6 Investment Properties (cont’d) (a) Completed Investment Properties (cont’d) Completed investment properties are derecognised when either they have been disposed of or when the completed investment properties are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the retirement or disposal of a completed investment property are recognised in the profit statement in the year of retirement or disposal. When an investment property that was previously classified as property, plant and equipment is sold, any related amount included in the revaluation reserve is transferred to retained earnings. Transfers are made to or from completed investment properties only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from completed investment property to owner-occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. For a transfer from owner-occupied property to completed investment property, the property is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy for property, plant and equipment up to the date of change in use. (b) Investment Properties under Construction IPUC are initially stated at cost, which includes cost of land and construction, related overhead expenditure and financing charges incurred during the period of construction and up to the completion of construction. IPUC are subsequently measured at fair value annually and on completion, with changes in fair values being recognised in the profit statement when fair value can be measured reliably. When completed, IPUC are transferred to completed investment properties. IPUC for which fair value cannot be determined reliably is measured at cost less impairment. 2.7 Properties Held for Sale (a) Development Properties Held for Sale Development properties held for sale are properties acquired or being constructed for sale in the ordinary course of business, rather than being held for the Group’s own use, rental or capital appreciation. Development properties held for sale are held as inventories and are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value of development properties held for sale is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. When completed, development properties held for sale are transferred to completed properties held for sale. Contents NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 2 4 8 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.7 Properties Held for Sale (cont’d) (b) Completed Properties Held for Sale Completed properties held for sale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Costs include cost of land and construction, related overhead expenditure, and financing charges (applicable to construction of a development for which revenue is to be recognised at a point of time), and other related costs incurred during the period of development. A write-down to net realisable value is made when it is anticipated that the net realisable value has fallen below cost. 2.8 Contract Costs Incremental costs of obtaining a contract for the sale of a development property are capitalised as contract costs only if (a) these costs relate directly to a contract or an anticipated contract which the Group can specifically identify; (b) these costs generate or enhance resources of the Group that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future; and (c) these costs are expected to be recovered. Otherwise, such costs are recognised as an expense immediately. Non-refundable commissions paid to sales or marketing agents on the sale of real estate units are capitalised as contract costs. Capitalised contract costs are subsequently amortised on a systematic basis as the Group recognises the related revenue on the contract. An impairment loss is recognised in the profit statement to the extent that the carrying amount of capitalised contract costs exceeds the expected remaining consideration less any directly related costs not yet recognised as expenses. 2.9 Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets primarily relate to the Group’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date on construction of development properties. Contract assets are transferred to trade receivables when the rights become unconditional. This usually occurs when the Group invoices the customer. Contract liabilities primarily relate to: – – advance consideration received from customers; and progress billings issued in excess of the Group’s rights to the consideration. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 4 9 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.10 Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment. The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to working condition for its intended use and estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located when the Group has an obligation to remove the asset or restore the site. Expenditure for additions, improvements and renewals are capitalised and expenditure for maintenance and repair are charged to the profit statement. Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the financial statements and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is included in the profit statement. Property, plant and equipment except freehold lands, leasehold lands of more than 100 years and assets under construction, are depreciated on the straight line method so as to write-off the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives. No depreciation is provided on freehold lands, leasehold lands of more than 100 years and assets under construction. The estimated useful lives of the Group’s property, plant and equipment are as follows: Leasehold lands (less than 100 years) Buildings Equipment, furniture and fittings Others1 Lease term 30 to 60 years 2 to 10 years 3 to 10 years 1 Others include motor vehicles, golf course and office spaces. Depreciation is recognised from the date that the property, plant and equipment are installed and are ready for use, or in respect of internally constructed assets, from the date that the asset is completed and ready for use. The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The estimated useful lives, depreciation method and residual values are reviewed periodically to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property, plant and equipment. Assets under construction are stated at cost and are not depreciated. Expenditure relating to assets under construction (including borrowing costs) are capitalised when incurred. Depreciation will commence when the development is completed. When the use of a property changes from owner-occupied to investment property, the property is remeasured to fair value and reclassified accordingly. Any gain arising on remeasurement is recognised in the profit statement to the extent that it reverses a previous impairment loss on the specific property, with any remaining gain recognised in OCI and presented in the revaluation reserve in equity. Any loss is recognised immediately in the profit statement. When the property is sold, the related amount in the revaluation reserve is transferred to retained earnings.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.11 Intangible Assets Intangible assets acquired separately are measured initially at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial acquisition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and expenditure is reflected in the profit statement in the year in which the expenditure is incurred. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortised over the estimated useful lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible assets may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognised in the profit statement in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives or not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if the events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired either individually or at the CGU level. Such intangible assets are not amortised. The useful life of an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is reviewed annually to determine whether the useful life assessment continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the profit statement when the asset is derecognised. (a) Goodwill Goodwill acquired in a business combination is initially measured at cost. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, at least annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. (b) Brands The brands were acquired in business combinations. The useful lives of the brands are estimated to be indefinite because based on the current market share of the brands, management believes there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the brands are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group. (c) Favourable Leases Favourable leases acquired in a business combination are initially measured at cost and are amortised on a straight line basis over the lease term of 35 to 70 years.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.11 Intangible Assets (cont’d) (d) Management Contracts Management contracts acquired in business combinations are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The useful lives of the management contracts are estimated to be indefinite because management believes that there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the management contracts are expected to generate net cash inflows for the Group. (e) Software Software are initially capitalised at cost, which includes the purchase prices (net of any discounts and rebates) and other directly attributable costs of preparing the asset for its intended use. Subsequent to initial recognition, software are amortised to the profit statement on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 10 years. 2.12 Non-Current Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale Non-current assets and liabilities, that are highly probable to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale. Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets are remeasured in accordance with the applicable SFRS(I). Thereafter, the assets are generally measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gains or losses on remeasurement are recognised in the profit statement. Gains are not recognised in excess of any cumulative impairment loss. Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment classified as held for sale are not amortised or depreciated. In addition, equity accounting of associates and joint ventures ceases once the investments are classified as held for sale. 2.13 Financial Instruments (a) Non-Derivative Financial Assets Classification and Measurement The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: – – – amortised costs; fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”); and fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). The classification depends on the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets as well as the contractual terms of the cash flows of the financial assets. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. The Group reclassifies financial assets when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.13 Financial Instruments (cont’d) (a) Non-Derivative Financial Assets (cont’d) At Initial Recognition Trade receivables are initially recognised when they are originated. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in the profit statement. Subsequent Measurement (i) Financial Assets at Amortised Cost Financial assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in interest income using the effective interest rate method. (ii) Financial Assets at FVOCI The Group has elected to recognise changes in fair value of equity securities not held for trading in OCI as these are strategic investments and the Group considers this to be more relevant. Movements in fair values of equity investments classified as FVOCI are recognised in OCI. Dividends from equity investments are recognised in the profit statement as dividend income. On disposal of an equity investment, any difference between the carrying amount and sales proceed amount would be recognised in OCI and transferred to retained earnings along with the amount previously recognised in OCI relating to that asset. (iii) Financial Assets at FVTPL Financial assets that are held for trading as well as those that do not meet the criteria for classification as amortised cost or FVOCI are classified as FVTPL. Movement in fair values and interest income is recognised in the profit statement in the period in which it arises. Financial Assets: Business Model Assessment The Group makes an assessment of the objective of the business model in which a financial asset is held at a portfolio level because this best reflects the way the business is managed and information is provided to management. The information considered includes: – the stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice. These include whether management’s strategy focuses on earning contractual interest income, maintaining a particular interest rate profile, matching the duration of the financial assets to the duration of any related liabilities or expected cash outflows or realising cash flows through the sale of the assets; – how the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Group’s management; NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 5 3 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.13 Financial Instruments (cont’d) (a) Non-Derivative Financial Assets (cont’d) Financial Assets: Business Model Assessment (cont’d) – – the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the financial assets held within that business model) and how those risks are managed; the frequency, volume and timing of sales of financial assets in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and expectations about future sales activity. Transfers of financial assets to third parties in transactions that do not qualify for derecognition are not considered sales for this purpose, consistent with the Group’s continuing recognition of the assets. Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL. Assessment Whether Contractual Cash Flows are Solely Payments of Principal and Interest For the purposes of this assessment, ‘principal’ is defined as the fair value of the financial asset on initial recognition. ‘Interest’ is defined as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs (e.g. liquidity risk and administrative costs), as well as profit margin. In assessing whether the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Group considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the financial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows such that it would not meet this condition. In making this assessment, the Group considers: – – – – contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash flows; terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate, including variable rate features; prepayment and extension features; and terms that limit the Group’s claim to cash flows from specified assets (e.g. non-recourse features). A prepayment feature is consistent with the solely payments of principal and interest criterion if the prepayment amount substantially represents unpaid amounts of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, which may include reasonable additional compensation for early termination of the contract. Additionally, for a financial asset acquired at a significant discount or premium to its contractual par amount, a feature that permits or requires prepayment at an amount that substantially represents the contractual par amount plus accrued (but unpaid) contractual interest (which may also include reasonable additional compensation for early termination) is treated as consistent with this criterion if the fair value of the prepayment feature is insignificant at initial recognition.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.13 Financial Instruments (cont’d) (b) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and bank deposits. For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, pledged deposits are excluded whilst bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents. (c) Non-Derivative Financial Liabilities The Group initially recognises debt securities issued on the date that they are originated. Financial liabilities for contingent consideration payable in a business combination are recognised at the acquisition date. All other financial liabilities (including liabilities designated at FVTPL) are recognised initially on the trade date, which is the date that the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial liability is classified as FVTPL if it is classified as held for trading or is designated as such on initial recognition. Directly attributable transaction costs are recognised in the profit statement as incurred. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and changes therein, including any interest expense, are recognised in the profit statement. The Group classifies non-derivative financial liabilities under the other financial liabilities category. Such financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Other financial liabilities comprise loans, borrowings, debt securities and trade and other payables. (d) Derecognition Financial assets are derecognised if the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire or if the Group transfers the financial assets to another party without retaining control or transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of the assets. The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. (e) Offsetting Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the balance sheet when, and only when, the Group has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. (f) Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Accounting The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures. Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the host contract is not a financial asset and the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related, a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative, and the combined instrument is not measured at FVTPL. The method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 5 5 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.13 Financial Instruments (cont’d) (f) Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Accounting (cont’d) On initial designation of the derivative as the hedging instrument, the Group formally documents the economic relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged item, including the risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction and the hedged risk, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship. The Group makes an assessment, both at the inception of the hedge relationship as well as on an ongoing basis, of whether the hedging instruments are expected to be highly effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the respective hedged items attributable to the hedged risk. For a cash flow hedge of a forecast transaction, the transaction should be highly probable to occur and should present an exposure to variations in cash flows that could ultimately affect the profit statement. Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value; attributable transaction costs are recognised in the profit statement when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below. Cash Flow Hedges The Group designates certain derivatives as hedging instruments to hedge the variability in cash flows associated with highly probable forecast transactions arising from changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised in OCI and accumulated in the hedging reserve. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in the profit statement. Where the hedged forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial item, such as inventory, the amount recognised as OCI is included in the initial cost of the non-financial item. If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or the hedging instrument is sold, expires, is terminated or is exercised, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. When hedge accounting for cash flow hedges is discontinued, the amount that has been accumulated in the hedging reserve remains in equity until, for a hedge of a transaction resulting in recognition of a non-financial item, it is included in the non-financial item’s cost on its initial recognition or, for other cash flow hedges, it is reclassified to the profit statement in the same period or periods as the hedged expected future cash flows affect the profit statement. Net Investment Hedges The Group designates certain derivatives and non-derivative financial liabilities as hedges of foreign exchange risk on a net investment in a foreign operation. When a derivative instrument or a non-derivative financial liability is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, the effective portion of, for a derivative, changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument or, for a non-derivative, foreign exchange gains and losses is recognised in OCI and presented in the translation reserve within equity. Any ineffective portion of the changes in the fair value of the derivative or foreign exchange gains and losses on the non-derivative is recognised immediately in the profit statement. The amount recognised in OCI is reclassified to the profit statement on disposal of the foreign operation.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.13 Financial Instruments (cont’d) (f) Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Accounting (cont’d) Applicable from 1 October 2019 for hedges directly affected by interest rate benchmark reform For the purpose of evaluating whether there is an economic relationship between the hedged item(s) and the hedging instrument(s), the Group assumes that the benchmark interest rate is not altered as a result of interest rate benchmark reform. For a cash flow hedge of a forecast transaction, the Group assumes that the benchmark interest rate will not be altered as a result of interest rate benchmark reform for the purpose of assessing whether the forecast transaction is highly probable and presents an exposure to variations in cash flows that could ultimately affect profit or loss. A similar exception is also provided for a discontinued cash flow hedging relationship. The Group will cease to apply the specific policy for assessing the economic relationship between the hedged item and the hedging instrument (i) to a hedged item or hedging instrument when the uncertainty arising from interest rate benchmark reform is no longer present with respect to the timing and the amount of the interest rate benchmark-based cash flows of the respective item or instrument or (ii) when the hedging relationship is discontinued. For its highly probable assessment of the hedged item, the Group will no longer apply the specific policy when the uncertainty arising from interest rate benchmark reform about the timing and the amount of the interest rate benchmark-based future cash flows of the hedged item is no longer present, or when the hedging relationship is discontinued. (g) Impairment of Financial Assets The Group recognises loss allowances for expected credit losses (“ECL”) on: – – – financial assets measured at amortised cost; contract assets (as defined in SFRS(I) 15); and lease receivables. Loss allowances of the Group are measured on either of the following bases. – – 12 months ECL: these are ECL that result from default events that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or for a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months); or Lifetime ECL: these are ECL that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument or contract asset. Simplified Approach The Group applied the simplified approach to provide for ECL for all trade receivables, contract assets and lease receivables. The simplified approach requires the loss allowance to be measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 2 5 7 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.13 Financial Instruments (cont’d) (g) Impairment of Financial Assets (cont’d) General Approach The Group applies the general approach to provide for ECL on all other financial instruments. Under the general approach, the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to 12-month ECL at initial recognition. At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether the credit risk of a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. When credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECL. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECL, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and includes forward-looking information. If credit has not increased significantly since initial recognition or if the credit quality of the financial instruments improves such that there is no longer a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to 12-month ECL. The Group considers a financial asset to be in default when the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held); or the financial asset is more than 120 days past due. The Group considers a contract asset to be in default when the customer is unlikely to pay its contractual obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held). The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk. Measurement of ECLs ECLs are probability-weighted estimates of credit losses. Credit losses are measured at the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to entity in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Group expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.13 Financial Instruments (cont’d) (g) Impairment of Financial Assets (cont’d) Credit-Impaired Financial Assets At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether financial assets carried at amortised cost are credit- impaired. A financial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data: – – – – – significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer; a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 120 days past due; the restructuring of a loan or advance by the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise; it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation; or the disappearance of an active market for a security because of financial difficulties. Presentation of ECL in the Balance Sheet Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortised cost and contract assets are deducted from the gross carrying amount of these assets. Write-off The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off (either partially or in full) to the extent that there is no realistic prospect of recovery. This is generally the case when the Group determines that the debtor does not have assets or sources of income that could generate sufficient cash flows to repay the amounts subject to the write-off. However, financial assets that are written off could still be subject to enforcement activities in order to comply with the Group’s procedures for recovery of amounts due. 2.14 Provisions Provisions are recognised when there is a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed. Where the effect of time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.15 Leases The Group has applied SFRS(I) 16 using the modified retrospective approach and therefore the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under SFRS(I) 1-17 and SFRS(I) INT 4. The details of accounting policies under SFRS(I) 1-17 and SFRS(I) INT 4 are disclosed separately. Policy applicable from 1 October 2019 At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group uses the definition of a lease in SFRS(I) 16. This policy is applied to contracts entered into, on or after 1 October 2019. (i) As a lessee At commencement or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of its relative stand-alone prices. However, for the leases of property, the Group has elected not to separate non-lease components and account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right- of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received. The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term, unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option. In that case, the right-of-use asset will be depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset, which is determined on the same basis as that of property, plant and equipment. In addition, the right- of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases of low-value assets and short-term leases, including IT equipment. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Contents NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 2 6 0 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.15 Leases (cont’d) Policy applicable from 1 October 2019 (cont’d) (ii) As a lessor To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, then the lease is a finance lease; if not, then it is an operating lease. As part of this assessment, the Group considers certain indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset. When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term lease to which the Group applies the exemption described above, then it classifies the sub-lease as an operating lease. The Group leases out its investment properties, including owned properties and right-of-use assets. The Group has classified these leases as operating leases except for sub-leases that qualify as finance leases. The Group recognises lease payments received from investment properties under operating leases as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Policy applicable before 1 October 2019 At inception, an arrangement that contains a lease is accounted for as such based on the terms and conditions even though the arrangement is not in the legal form of a lease. (i) When entities within the Group are lessees of a finance lease Leased assets in which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition, property, plant and equipment acquired through finance leases are capitalised at the lower of their fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expense and reduction of the lease liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest over the remaining balance of the liability. Contingent lease payments are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over the remaining term of the lease when the lease adjustment is confirmed. (ii) When entities within the Group are lessees of an operating lease Where the Group has the use of assets under operating leases, payments made under the leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised as an integral part of the total lease payments made. Contingent rentals are charged to the profit or loss in the accounting period in which they are incurred. (iii) When entities within the Group are lessors of an operating lease Assets subject to operating leases are included in either property, plant and equipment (Note 2.10) or investment properties (Note 2.6).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.16 Impairment of Non-Financial Assets The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than investment properties, development properties held for sale, contract assets and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the assets’ recoverable amounts are estimated. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date, and as and when indicators of impairment are identified, an impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its related cash-generating unit (CGU) exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre- tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGU. Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, for the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment is tested reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGU that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Impairment losses are recognised in the profit statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro-rata basis. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indication that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate or a joint venture is not recognised separately, and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an associate or a joint venture is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate or a joint venture may be impaired. 2.17 Income Taxes Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax, as well as land appreciation tax in China. Tax expense is recognised in the profit statement except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in OCI. The Group has determined that interest and penalties related to income taxes, including uncertain tax treatments, do not meet the definition of income taxes, and therefore accounted for them under SFRS(I) 1-37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable profit or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payable or receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related to income taxes, if any.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.17 Income Taxes (cont’d) Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for: – – temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss; temporary differences relating to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and – taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. The measurement of deferred taxes reflects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. For investment property that is measured at fair value, the presumption that the carrying amount of the investment property will be recovered through sale has not been rebutted. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously. A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised. Land appreciation tax relates to the gains arising from the transfer of real estate property in China. Land appreciation tax is levied from 30% to 60% on the appreciation of land value, being the proceeds of sales of properties less deductible expenditure including amortisation of land use rights, borrowing costs and all property development expenditure. 2.18 Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs are capitalised as part of the cost of a qualifying asset if they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of that asset. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress and the expenditure and borrowing costs are incurred. Borrowing costs are capitalised until the assets are substantially completed for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period they occur using the effective interest method. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.19 Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is made. Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: (a) Properties Held for Sale The Group develops and sells residential and mixed development projects to customers through fixed- price contracts. Revenue is recognised when the control over a development property has been transferred to the customer. At contract inception, the Group assesses whether the Group transfers control of the residential project over time or at a point in time by determining if (a) its performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Group; and (b) the Group has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Where a development property has no alternative use for the Group due to contractual restriction, and the Group has enforceable rights to payment for performance completed to date arising from the contractual terms, revenue is recognised over time by reference to the Group’s progress towards completing the construction of the development property. The measure of progress is determined based on the proportion of development costs incurred to date to the estimated total development costs. Costs incurred that are not related to the contract or that do not contribute towards satisfying a performance obligation are excluded from the measure of progress and instead are expensed as incurred. In respect of contracts where the Group does not have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, revenue is recognised only when the completed property is delivered to the customer and the customer has accepted it in accordance with the sales contract. Under certain payment schemes, the time when payments are made by the buyer and the transfer of control of the property to the buyer do not coincide and where the difference between the timing of receipt of the payments and the satisfaction of a performance obligation is 12 months or more, the Group adjusts the transaction price with its customer and recognises a financing component. In adjusting for the financing component, the Group uses a discount rate that would reflect that of a separate financing transaction between the Group and its customer at contract inception. A finance income or finance expense will be recognised depending on the arrangement. The Group has elected to apply the practical expedient not to adjust the transaction price for the existence of significant financing component when the period between the transfer of control of goods or services to a customer and the payment date is 12 months or less. Revenue is measured at the transaction price agreed under the contract entered into with customers. Estimates of revenues, costs or extent of progress towards completion are revised if circumstances change. Any resulting increases or decreases in estimated revenues or costs are reflected in the profit statement in the period in which the circumstances that give rise to the revision become known by management. The customer is invoiced based on a payment schedule which is typically triggered upon achievement of specified construction milestones. If the value of the goods transferred by the Group exceeds the payments, a contract asset is recognised. If the payments exceed the value of the goods transferred, a contract liability is recognised. The accounting policy for contract assets and contract liabilities is set out in Note 2.9.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.19 Revenue Recognition (cont’d) (b) Rental Income Rental and related income from completed investment properties are recognised on a straight line basis over the lease term commencing on the date from which the lessee is entitled to exercise its right to use the leased asset. Contingent rentals, which include gross turnover rental, are recognised as income in the accounting period in which it is earned and the amount can be reliably measured. (c) Hotel Income Revenue from hotel operations is recognised on an accrual basis, upon rendering of the relevant services. (d) Dividends Dividend income is recognised when the Group’s right to receive the payment is established. (e) Interest Income Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. (f) Management Fees Management fee is recognised at the point when such services are rendered on an accrual basis. 2.20 Foreign Currencies (a) Functional Currency Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency that best reflects the economic substance of the underlying events and circumstances relevant to the entity (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements and financial statements of the Company are presented in Singapore Dollars, the functional currency of the Company. (b) Foreign Currency Transactions Transactions in foreign currencies are measured in the respective functional currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries at rates of exchange approximating those ruling at transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates ruling at the reporting date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the year, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the year, and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the year. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates ruling at the initial transaction dates. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was measured.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.20 Foreign Currencies (cont’d) (b) Foreign Currency Transactions (cont’d) Foreign currency differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at the reporting date are recognised in the profit statement except for: – – an investment in financial asset at FVOCI; a financial liability designated as a hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation to the extent that the hedge is effective; and – qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent the hedges are effective. (c) Foreign Currency Translation The results and financial position of foreign operations are translated into Singapore Dollars using the following procedures: – – assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate ruling at that reporting date; and income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year, which approximates the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. All resulting exchange differences are taken directly to OCI and accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity. However, if the foreign operation is a non-wholly-owned subsidiary, then the relevant proportionate share of the translation difference is allocated to the NCI. When a foreign operation is disposed such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to the profit statement as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of only part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to NCI. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to the profit statement as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the settlement of a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from such a monetary item that are considered to form part of a net investment in a foreign operation are recognised in OCI and are accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity. 2.21 Employee Benefits (a) Defined Contribution Plan As required by law, the Group makes contributions to state pension schemes in accordance with local regulatory requirements. The pension contributions are recognised as compensation expense in the same period as the employment that gives rise to the contribution.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.21 Employee Benefits (cont’d) (b) Employee Leave Entitlement Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. A provision is made for the estimated liability for leave as a result of services rendered by employees up to the reporting date. (c) Equity Plans For equity-settled share-based payment transactions, the fair value of the services received is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the equity instrument. The fair value of the services received is determined by reference to the fair value of the equity instrument granted at the grant date. At each reporting date, the number of equity instruments that are expected to be vested are estimated. The impact of the revision of the original estimates is recognised as an expense and as a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining vesting period, unless the revision to the original estimates is due to market conditions. No adjustment is made if the revision or actual outcome differs from the original estimates due to market conditions. For cash-settled share-based payment transactions, the fair value of the goods or services received is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in liability. The fair value of the services received is determined by reference to the fair value of the liability. Until the liability is settled, the fair value of the liability is remeasured at each reporting date and at the date of settlement, with any changes in fair value recognised for the period. The proceeds received from the exercise of the equity instruments, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are credited to share capital when the equity instruments are exercised. 2.22 Exceptional Items Exceptional items are one-off items of income and expense of such size, nature or incidence that their disclosure is relevant to explain the performance of the Group and the Company for the year arising from infrequent and non-operating events. 2.23 Government grants Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and the Group will comply with the conditions associated with the grant. Government grants related to income are recognised in profit or loss as ‘Other Income’ on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. 2.24 Contingencies A contingent liability is: – – a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Group and the Company; or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation or the amount of obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D) 2.24 Contingencies (cont’d) Contingent liabilities are not recognised on the balance sheets of the Group and the Company, except for contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination that are present obligations and which the fair values can be reliably determined. 2.25 New standards and interpretations not yet adopted A number of new standards, interpretations and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 October 2019 and earlier application is permitted. The Group has early adopted the Amendments to SFRS(I) 9, SFRS(I) 1-39 and SFRS(I) 7 Interest Rate Benchmark Reform. The Group applied the interest rate benchmark reform amendments retrospectively to hedging relationship that existed at 1 October 2019 or were designated thereafter and that are directly affected by interest rate benchmark reform. These amendments also apply to the gain or loss accumulated in the hedging reserve that existed at 1 October 2019. The details of the accounting policies are disclosed in Notes 2.13(f) and 34(c) for related disclosures about the risks and hedge accounting. The following new SFRS(I)s, interpretations and amendments to SFRS(I)s are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements and the Company’s statement of financial position. – – – – – – Amendments to References to Conceptual Framework in SFRS(I) Standards Definition of a Business (Amendments to SFRS(I) 3 Business Combinations) Definition of Material (Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-1 Presentation of Financial Statements and SFRS(I) 1-8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors) SFRS(I) 17 Insurance Contracts Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-1 Presentation of Financial Statements) Covid-19-Related Rent Concessions (Amendments to SFRS(I) 16 Leases) 3.

SEGMENT INFORMATION Management determines the operating segments based on the reports reviewed and used by the Group CEO (the chief operating decision maker) for strategic decision making and resources allocation. The segments are organised based on their products and services. The Group CEO reviews internal management reports of each segment at least quarterly. With effect from 1 October 2019, the Group formed a new strategic business unit (“SBU”) – Industrial. The Group’s reportable operating segments, after the organisational changes, comprise four SBUs: (i) (ii) (iii) Singapore, which encompasses the development, ownership, management and operation of residential, retail and commercial properties held by Frasers Centrepoint Trust (“FCT”), Frasers Commercial Trust (“FCOT”) and non-REIT entities in Singapore, Australia, which encompasses the development, ownership, management and operation of residential, retail and commercial properties held by non-REIT entities in Australia, Industrial, which encompasses the development, ownership, management and operation of industrial, logistics and commercial properties and business parks held by Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust (“FLCT”, previously known as Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust (“FLT”)) and the non-REIT entities in Australia and continental Europe, and (iv) Hospitality, which encompasses the Group’s hospitality operations and the ownership/management and operation of hotels and serviced apartments held by Frasers Hospitality Trust (“FHT”) and non-REIT entities, as well as (i) (ii) Thailand & Vietnam, which encompasses the development, ownership, management and operation of industrial, residential, retail, hospitality and commercial properties in Thailand and Vietnam, and Others, which comprises the development, ownership, management and operation of residential, industrial, logistics and commercial properties and business parks in China and the UK. On 14 April 2020, FCOT merged with FLT to form FLCT (the “Merger”). Following the Merger, the Industrial operating segment includes the ownership, management and operation of commercial properties and business parks in Australia, Singapore and the UK. The comparative operating segment information have been restated to take into account the organisational changes above. Information regarding the results of each reportable segment is included below. Performance is measured based on segment profit before interest, fair value change, taxation and exceptional items (“PBIT”), as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Group CEO. Segment PBIT is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. Group financing (including finance costs) and income taxes are managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments. Segment assets and liabilities are presented net of inter-segment balances. Inter-segment pricing is determined on arm’s length basis. Geographically, management reviews the performance of the businesses in Singapore, Australia, Europe, China, Thailand and Others.

INVESTMENTS IN AND BALANCES WITH SUBSIDIARIES (CONT’D) Amounts due from subsidiaries are non-trade related, unsecured and repayable in cash. In respect of interest- bearing amounts, interest of between 0.2% to 1.6% (2019: 0.2% to 1.6%) per annum was charged. Amounts due to subsidiaries are non-trade related, interest-free, unsecured and repayable in cash. Balances with subsidiaries which are repayable on demand have been classified as current, while balances with no fixed terms of repayment and not expected to be repaid within the next 12 months have been classified as non- current. The non-current loans due from subsidiaries form part of the Company’s net investments in subsidiaries where settlements are neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future. Details of significant subsidiaries are included in Note 40. Interest in Subsidiaries with Material NCI (a) Determining whether the Group has control over the REITs it manages requires management judgement. In exercising its judgement, management considers the proportion of its ownership interest and voting rights, the REIT managers’ decision making authority over the REITs as well as the Group’s overall exposure to variable returns, both from the REIT managers’ remuneration and their interests in the REITs. The Group assesses that it controls FCT, FCOT, FHT and FLT (collectively, the “REITs”), although the Group owns less than half of the ownership interest and voting power of the REITs. The activities are managed by the Group’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, namely, Frasers Centrepoint Asset Management Ltd. (“FCAM”), Frasers Commercial Asset Management Ltd. (“FCOAM”), Frasers Hospitality Asset Management Pte. Ltd. (“FHAM”) and Frasers Logistics & Industrial Asset Management Pte. Ltd. (“FLIAM”), respectively (collectively, the “REIT Managers”). The REIT Managers have decision-making authority over the REITs, subject to oversight by the trustees of the respective REITs. The Group’s overall exposure to variable returns, both from the REIT Managers’ remuneration and the interests in the REITs, is significant and any decisions made by the REIT Managers affect the Group’s overall exposure. (b) On 2 December 2019, FLT and FCOT jointly announced a proposed merger to be effected by a way of trust scheme of arrangement with FLT acquiring all the FCOT units for consideration of $1,257.3 million, comprising of $138.4 million in cash and 1,130.2 million new FLT units issued at a price of $0.99. The Merger was completed on 14 April 2020 and the Group’s stake in FLT increased from 19.2% to 21.8%. On 29 April 2020, FLT was renamed Frasers Logistics & Commercial Trust (“FLCT”). The activities of FLCT are managed by the Group’s wholly-owned subsidiary, namely Frasers Logistics & Commercial Asset Management Pte. Ltd. (“FLCAM”) (formerly known as FLIAM).

INVESTMENTS IN AND BALANCES WITH JOINT VENTURES AND ASSOCIATES (CONT’D) (a) Acquisition of an Associate On 6 December 2019, JustCo Holdings Pte. Ltd. (“JCH”) and JustGroup Holdings Pte. Ltd. (“JGH”) amalgamated, with JCH continuing as the surviving entity (the “Amalgamation”). Pursuant to the Amalgamation, the Group’s interest in JCH became 17.8% and was equity accounted for as an associate. The Group engaged an independent firm to perform Purchase Price Allocation (“PPA”) for the acquisition of JCH. Based on the PPA, part of the consideration paid for the net assets has been identified and allocated to intangible assets. The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of identifiable net assets of US$38,398,000 ($52,429,000) is accounted as goodwill and is included in the carrying amount of the investment. On 8 January 2020, the Group, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Frasers Property Ventures II Pte. Ltd., acquired additional 791 ordinary shares and 15,510,474 preference C shares of JCH for an aggregate cash consideration of US$12,409,000 ($16,943,000) (the “Acquisition”). Subsequent to the Acquisition, new shares were issued to a new investor. Arising therefrom, the Group’s interest in JCH became 21.1%. (b) Dilution of Interest in an Associate In January 2020, FPT and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Frasers Property Thailand (International) Pte. Ltd. (“FPTI”), subscribed for 79,862,533 units in Frasers Property Thailand Industrial Freehold & Leasehold REIT (“FTREIT”) at a consideration of THB1,142,034,000 ($49,336,000), increasing the Group’s deemed interest in FTREIT to 24.4%. In February 2020, FPTI disposed of 61,200,000 units in FTREIT for a consideration of THB942,811,000 ($40,729,000). Following the above, the Group’s deemed interest in FTREIT decreased to 22.3%. The excess of the consideration received over the carrying amount disposed of THB90,236,000 ($3,988,000) is included in net gain/(loss) on acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates under “Exceptional Items” in the Group’s Profit Statement (Note 7). (c) Dilution of Interest in a Subsidiary to a Joint Venture On 14 July 2020, the Group, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Frasers Property North Gem Trustee Pte. Ltd. and FCL Amber Pte. Ltd., entered into a unit subscription agreement with an interested person, Bright Bloom Capital Limited (the “Subscriber”), where the Subscriber subscribed for 1,000,002 new units in North Gem Trust (“NGT”), representing 50.0% of the enlarged total issued units of NGT, for a consideration of $1. FCL Amber holds the remaining 50.0% of the enlarged total issued units of NGT, and with effect from 14 July 2020, NGT is equity accounted for as a joint venture. Material Joint Ventures and Associates Except for Supreme Asia Investments Limited and its subsidiary (“SAI group”), FTREIT and Aquamarine Star Trust (“AST”), the Group’s joint ventures and associates are individually immaterial. The market value of the Group’s interest in FTREIT as at 30 September 2020 is $388,151,000 (2019: $491,079,000). No disclosure of fair value is made for material joint ventures as they are not quoted on any market. The following table summarises the financial information of the Group’s material joint venture based on its consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with SFRS(I), modified for fair value adjustments on acquisition and differences in the Group’s accounting policies.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CONT’D) (a) Goodwill The Group’s goodwill is denominated in the respective functional currencies of the acquired subsidiaries and is subject to currency fluctuations. The carrying value was assessed for impairment based on CGUs during the financial year. The comparative operating segment information have been restated to take into the account organisation changes as disclosed in Note 10. Carrying value of capitalised goodwill in the following operating segments: – Australia – Industrial – Singapore (i) Australia 2020 $'000 2019 $'000 309,403 231,820 – 541,223 294,469 160,110 62,601 517,180 The Group recorded the goodwill upon the acquisition of Frasers Property AHL Limited (“FPA”). For the purposes of impairment assessment, the carrying amount of goodwill is allocated to the total assets of the residential division. The recoverable amount of the CGU of FPA is estimated based on value-in-use calculations using a projection of earnings before interest and taxation and changes in capital requirements over a five- year period. The pre-tax discount applied to the projections is 10.6% (2019: 9.4%) and the terminal growth rate used beyond the five-year period is 2.0% (2019: 2.0%). Management believes the assumptions applied are appropriate and sustainable considering current and anticipated business conditions. The recoverable amount yields sufficient head room at the reporting date which indicates no impairment required. As at 30 September 2020, the carrying value of goodwill is A$316,396,000 ($309,403,000) (2019: A$316,396,000 ($294,469,000)).

INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CONT’D) (a) Goodwill (cont’d) (ii) Industrial (a) As at 30 September 2019, the goodwill arising from the Group’s acquisition of FCOT and FCOAM was reported under the Singapore operating segment. Following the Merger of FLT and FCOT on 14 April 2020 (Notes 10 and 13), the goodwill has been allocated to FLCAM which holds the management contracts for FCOT, and is now reported under the Industrial operating segment. The recoverable amount has been determined based on value-in-use calculations using a projection of the net management fee income covering a 10-year period. The pre-tax discount rate applied to the projections is 12.0% (2019: 11.9%) and the forecast growth rate used beyond the 10-year period is 2.0% (2019: 2.0%). Based on the recoverable amount, no impairment is necessary. As at 30 September 2020, the carrying value of goodwill is $62,601,000 (2019: $62,601,000). (b) The Group recorded the goodwill upon the acquisition of Geneba Properties N.V. (the “Geneba Acquisition”) and Alpha Industrial GmbH & Co. KG. and Alpha Industrial Management GmbH (the “Alpha Acquisition”). The goodwill arising from the Geneba and Alpha Acquisitions are aggregated as a single CGU as the CGU is managed by the same asset management team. The recoverable amount is estimated based on value-in-use calculations using a projection of the net management fee income over a 10-year period. The pre-tax discount rate applied to the projections is 4.0% (2019: 4.5%) and the terminal growth rate used beyond the 10-year period is 6.0% (2019: 6.6%). Based on the recoverable amount, no impairment is necessary. As at 30 September 2020, the carrying value of goodwill is EUR65,978,000 ($105,655,000) (2019: EUR65,978,000 ($99,614,000)). (c) The Group recorded the goodwill upon the acquisition of FPA. For the purposes of impairment assessment, the carrying amount of goodwill is allocated to the total assets of the commercial and industrial division. The recoverable amount of the CGU of FPA is estimated based on value-in-use calculations using a projection of earnings before interest and taxation and changes in capital requirements over a five-year period. The pre-tax discount applied to the projections is 10.6% (2019: 9.4%) and the terminal growth rate used beyond the five-year period is 2.0% (2019: 2.0%). Management believes the assumptions applied are appropriate and sustainable considering current and anticipated business conditions. The recoverable amount yields sufficient head room at the reporting date which indicates no impairment required. As at 30 September 2020, the carrying value of goodwill is A$65,000,000 ($63,564,000) (2019: A$65,000,000 ($60,496,000)).

INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CONT’D) (b) Brands Brands relate to the “Malmaison” and “Hotel du Vin” brand names that the Group acquired. As the brands are determined to have indefinite useful lives, no amortisation has been charged for the year. As at 30 September 2019, the brands are fully impaired. (c) Favourable Leases Favourable leases relate to certain Malmaison hotels. As at 30 September 2019, the favourable leases are fully impaired. (d) Management Contracts These relate to management contracts held by certain acquired subsidiaries prior to the acquisitions of the subsidiaries by the Group. Management contracts of THB1,613,000,000 ($69,682,000) (2019: THB1,613,000,000 ($72,585,000)) are assessed to have indefinite useful lives and not amortised. Management is of the view that these contracts have indefinite useful lives as contracts are automatically renewed every five years and are expected to continue into perpetuity. The recoverable amount of the management contracts has been determined based on value-in-use calculations using a projection of the net management fee income covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond this period are extrapolated using the estimated terminal growth rate of 3.0% (2019: 3.0%). The pre-tax discount rate applied to the projections is 11.0% (2019: 8.4%). Based on the recoverable amount, no impairment is necessary. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 / 3 0 1 17.

The stage of completion is measured in accordance with the accounting policy stated in Note 2.19. Significant assumptions are required in determining the total estimated development costs. In making the assumptions, the Group evaluates them by relying on past experience and the work of specialists. The Group makes allowance for foreseeable losses by applying its experience in estimating the net realisable values of completed units and properties under development. References were made to comparable properties, timing of sale launches, location of property, management’s expected net selling prices and estimated development expenditure. Market conditions may, however, change which may affect the future selling prices of the remaining unsold units of the development properties and accordingly, the carrying value of development properties held for sale may have to be written down in future periods.

LEASES (a) Leases as lessee The Group leases land and buildings, equipment, offices and motor vehicles. These leases have varying terms, escalation clauses and renewal rights. Some leases provide for additional rent payments that are based on changes in local price index. Previously, these leases were classified as operating leases under SFRS(I) 1-17. For leases that are short-term and/or leases of low-value items, the Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for these leases. Information about leases for which the Group is a lessee is presented below. (i) Right-of-use assets Right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property are presented as property, plant and equipment (Note 12) and properties held for sale (Note 19).

LEASES (CONT’D) (b) Leases as lessor The Group leases out investment properties consisting of its owned properties as well as leased properties (Note 11). All leases are classified as operating leases from a lessor perspective with the exception of subleases, which the Group has classified as finance sublease. (i) Finance lease The Group leases land and buildings from non-related parties that are subleased to related parties. Previously, the subleases were classified as operating leases under SFRS(I) 1-17. On adoption of SFRS(I) 16, the subleases are classified as finance sublease. During the year, the Group recognised interest income on lease receivables of $1,133,000 (2019: $799,000). The following table sets out a maturity analysis of lease receivables, showing the undiscounted lease payments to be received after the reporting date. 2020 – Finance leases under SFRS(I) 16 Within 1 year From 1 year to 5 years After 5 years Total undiscounted lease receivable Unearned finance income Net investment in the lease (Note 17) 2019 – Finance leases under SFRS(I) 1-17 Within 1 year From 1 year to 5 years After 5 years Total undiscounted lease receivable Unearned finance income Net investment in the lease (Note 17) (ii) Operating lease $'000 4,107 24,197 39,127 67,431 (19,321) 48,110 1,552 12,416 4,200 18,168 (5,429) 12,739 The Group leases out its investment properties and certain properties held for sale. The Group has classified these leases as operating leases because they do not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the assets. Rental income from investment property and property sublease recognised by the Group is disclosed in Note 3. Future minimum rental receivables under non-cancellable operating leases at the end of the reporting period are disclosed in Note 11.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The Group and the Company are exposed to financial risks arising from its operations and the use of financial instruments. The key financial risks include credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. The Group uses financial instruments such as currency forwards, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps as well as foreign currency borrowings to hedge certain financial risk exposures. The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. The Board has established the Risk Management Committee to strengthen its risk management framework and processes. The Group has risk management policies and guidelines, which set out its overall business strategies, its tolerance for risk and its general risk management philosophy and has established processes to monitor and control hedging transactions in a timely and accurate manner. All major investment opportunities are reviewed by the Executive Committee of the Board to ensure that the Group’s policy guidelines are adhered to. (a) Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss that may arise on outstanding financial instruments should a counterparty default on its obligations. For trade and other receivables, contract assets and financial assets at amortised cost, the Group has guidelines governing the process of granting credit as a service or product provider in its respective segments of business. Trade and other receivables and contract assets relate mainly to the Group’s customers who bought its residential units and tenants from its commercial, retail and industrial and logistics buildings and serviced residences. Financial assets at amortised cost relate mainly to amounts owing by related parties. Investments and financial transactions are restricted to counterparties that meet the appropriate credit criteria. The principal risk to which the Group and the Company is exposed to in respect of financial guarantee contracts is credit risk in connection with the guarantee contracts they have issued. To mitigate the risk, management continually monitors the risk and has performed periodic credit evaluations of the parties it is providing the guarantee on behalf of. Guarantees are only given for the benefit of its subsidiaries and joint ventures. As at the reporting date, the Group’s and the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk in the event that the counterparties fail to perform their obligations is represented by the carrying amount of each class of financial assets and contract assets recognised in the balance sheets, including derivatives with positive fair values. Impairment on cash and fixed deposits has been measured on the 12-month expected loss basis and reflects the short maturities of the exposures. The Group and the Company consider that cash and fixed deposits have low credit risk based on the external credit ratings of the counterparties. The amount of the allowance on cash and fixed deposits is negligible. Impairment on other receivables has been measured on the 12-month expected loss basis which reflect the low credit risk of the exposures. The amount of the allowance on these balances is insignificant. With respect to derivative financial instruments, credit risk arises from the potential failure of counterparties to meet their obligations under the contract or arrangement. The Group’s maximum credit risk exposure for cross currency interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps, foreign currency swap contracts and interest rate swap contracts are limited to the fair value adjustments of these contracts. It is the Group’s and the Company’s policy to enter into financial instruments with a diversity of credit worthy counterparties. The Group and the Company do not expect to incur material credit losses on their financial assets or other financial instruments.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D) (a) Credit Risk (cont’d) The credit risk associated with receivables from joint ventures and associates is monitored through management’s review of project feasibilities and the Group’s ongoing involvement in the operations of these entities. The Group and the Company do not expect to incur material credit losses on receivables from joint ventures and associates. As at 30 September 2020, 100% (2019: 100%) of the Company’s receivables are due from subsidiaries. There is no significant credit risk as these companies are of good credit standing. (i) Trade receivables and contract assets The Group has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. The Group limits its exposure to credit risk from trade receivables by collecting deposits and bankers’ guarantees as collateral, where possible. In monitoring customer credit risk, the Group considers the trade history of the customers with the Group, aging profile, maturity and existence of previous financial difficulties. Trade and other receivables and contract assets are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, such as a debtor failing to engage in a repayment plan with the Group. The Group generally considers a financial asset as in default if the counterparty fails to make contractual payments within 120 days when they fall due and writes off the financial asset when the Group assesses that the debtor fails to make contractual payments. Where receivables are written off, the Group continues to engage in enforcement activity to attempt to recover the receivables due. Where recoveries are made, these are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses on trade receivables recognised in the Profit Statement are as follows: Impairment loss on trade receivables arising from contracts with customers (Note 4(a)) Group 2020 $'000 2019 $'000 10,590 3,713 Contents NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 3 2 6 / F R A S E R S P R O P E R T Y L I M I T E D 34. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D) (a) Credit Risk (cont’d) (ii) Credit Risk by Operating Segments The Group has a diversified portfolio of businesses, there is no concentration of credit risk with respect to the trade receivables of the Group as they consist of a large number of customers that are geographically dispersed. The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to a single customer or group of customers. The Group generally holds collateral in the form of bank deposits, bank guarantees or mortgages over assets until completion. The maximum exposure to credit risk for trade receivables at the reporting date by operating segments is as follows: Singapore Australia Industrial Hospitality Thailand & Vietnam Others(1) Corporate & Others 2020 $'000 14,786 15,861 14,533 22,657 10,925 17,925 6,202 102,889 Group 2019 $'000 9,742 12,213 8,141 34,640 5,332 12,666 4,405 87,139 Company 2020 $'000 2019 $'000 – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – (1) Others include contribution from China of $953,000 (2019: $1,310,000) and the United Kingdom of $16,972,000 (2019: $11,356,000) The comparative operating segment information have been restated to take into the account organisation changes as disclosed in Note 10. (iii) Financial guarantees The Company has issued financial guarantees to banks for borrowings and perpetual securities of its subsidiaries. It has also provided banker’s guarantees to unrelated parties in respect of performance contracts on behalf of its subsidiaries and joint ventures. These guarantees are subject to the impairment requirements of SFRS(I) 9. The Company has assessed that its subsidiaries and joint ventures have strong financial capacity to meet the contractual cash flow obligations in the near future and hence, does not expect significant credit losses arising from these guarantees.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D) (a) Credit Risk (cont’d) (iv) Expected credit loss assessment on trade receivables The Group uses an allowance matrix to measure the ECLs of trade receivables from individual customers, which comprise a large number of small balances. Loss rates are based on actual credit loss experience over the past 3 years. These rates are adjusted to reflect differences between economic conditions during the period over which the historic data has been collected, current conditions and the Group’s view of economic conditions over the expected lives of the receivables. The Group’s credit risk exposure in relation to trade receivables is set out in the allowance matrix as follows: Group 1 to 30 days past due $'000 31 to 60 days past due $'000 61 to 90 More than 90 days past due $'000 days past due $'000 Current $'000 Total $'000 30 September 2020 Expected loss rate Gross carrying amount Loss allowance provision 30 September 2019 Expected loss rate Gross carrying amount Loss allowance provision 6.1% 63,224 3,839 4.4% 24,641 1,088 17.2% 8,693 1,498 4.3% 62,706 2,680 1.9% 17,830 330 5.2% 2,854 147 1.1% 2,718 31 9.6% 2,595 248 44.3% 18,093 8,024 12.3% 117,369 14,480 46.6% 8,545 3,986 7.8% 94,530 7,391 (v) Movements in allowance for impairment in respect of trade receivables and contract assets The movements in the allowance for impairment in respect of trade receivables during the year are disclosed in Note 17.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D) (b) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group and Company will encounter difficulty in meeting financial obligations due to shortage of funds. The Group actively manages its debt maturity profile, operating cash flows and the availability of funding so as to ensure that all refinancing, repayment and funding needs are met. The Group adopts a prudent approach to managing its liquidity risk. The Group always maintains sufficient cash and has available funding through a diverse source of credit facilities from various banks and a related company. The following are the expected contractual undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities and derivative financial instruments, including interest payments and excluding the impact of netting agreements: Contractual cash flows Carrying amount $'000 Total $'000 1 year or less $'000 1 to 5 years $'000 Over 5 years $'000 Group 30 September 2020 Financial liabilities, at amortised cost Loans and borrowings Trade and other payables# Lease liabilities Derivative financial assets/ (liabilities), at fair value Interest rate swaps (net-settled) (19,187,634) (20,426,391) (1,884,963) (1,623,863) (21,870,974) (23,935,217) (1,838,723) (844,617) (4,522,347) (14,513,063) (551,498) (1,249,061) (205,574) (45,447) (5,816,855) (15,270,135) (1,390,981) (84,404) (1,372,842) (2,848,227) (183,879) (184,860) (70,044) (113,916) (900) Foreign currency forward contracts (gross-settled) (5,558) – outflow – inflow (411,131) 405,643 (411,131) 405,643 – – – – Cross currency swaps/cross currency interest rate swaps (gross-settled) (2,551) – outflow – inflow (4,490,800) 4,488,495 (192,653) (22,062,962) (24,127,870) (191,988) (838,440) 837,038 (76,934) (3,652,360) 3,651,457 (114,819) (5,893,789) (15,384,954) – – (900) (2,849,127) # Excludes deferred income, provision for employee benefits and advanced rental income received.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D) (b) Liquidity Risk (cont’d) The maturity analyses show the contractual undiscounted cash flows of the Group’s and the Company’s financial liabilities, on the basis of their earliest possible contractual maturity. The cash inflows/(outflows) disclosed relate to those instruments held for risk management purposes and which are usually not closed out prior to contractual maturity. The disclosure shows net cash flow amounts for derivatives that are net cash-settled and gross cash inflow and outflow amounts for derivatives that have simultaneous gross cash settlement e.g. forward exchange contracts. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are entered on behalf of subsidiaries and JVs and are back- to-back in nature, hence contractual cash inflows are offset with contractual cash outflows. (c) Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s and the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk is in respect of debt obligations and deposits with related companies and financial institutions. The Group manages its interest rate exposure by maintaining a mix of fixed and floating rate debts with varying tenors. The Group adopts a policy of ensuring that between 50% and 80% of its interest rate risk exposure is at fixed rate. The Group actively reviews its debt portfolio, taking into account the investment holding period and nature of its assets. To manage this mix in a cost-efficient manner, the Group uses hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps to minimise its exposure to interest rate volatility. The Group determines the existence of an economic relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged item based on the reference interest rates, tenors, repricing dates and maturities and the notional or par amounts. The Group assesses whether the derivative designated in each hedge relationship is expected to be effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item using the critical terms method, dollar offset method or regression method. Hedge ineffectiveness may occur due to changes in the critical terms of either the interest rate swaps or borrowings. Derivatives The Group holds interest rate swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps for risk management purposes which are designated in cash flow hedging relationships. The interest rate swaps have floating legs that are indexed to Singapore swap offer rates (“SOR”) and GBP LIBOR. The cross currency interest rate swaps have floating legs that are indexed to SOR and US$ LIBOR. The Group’s derivative instruments are governed by contracts based on the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”)’s master agreements. The Group is currently in discussions with counterparties of respective contracts. No derivative instruments have been modified as at 30 September 2020.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D) (c) Interest Rate Risk (cont’d) Hedge accounting The Group has evaluated the extent to which its hedging relationships are subject to uncertainty driven by IBOR reform as at 30 September 2020. The Group’s hedged items and hedging instruments continue to be indexed to IBOR benchmark rate which is SOR, GBP LIBOR and US$ LIBOR. The Group’s SOR, GBP LIBOR and US$ LIBOR hedging relationships extend beyond the anticipated cessation date for IBOR. However, there is uncertainty about when and how replacement may occur with respect to the relevant hedged items and hedging instruments. Such uncertainty may impact the hedging relationship. The Group applies the amendments to FRS 109 issued to those hedging relationships directly affected by IBOR reform. Hedging relationships impacted by IBOR reform may experience ineffectiveness attributable to market participants’ expectations of when the shift from the existing IBOR benchmark rate to an alternative benchmark interest rate will occur. This transition may occur at different times for the hedged item and hedging instrument, which may lead to hedge ineffectiveness. The Group’s exposure to SOR, GBP LIBOR and US$ LIBOR designated in hedging relationships is $6.3 billion nominal amount at 30 September 2020, representing both the nominal amount of the hedging instruments, interest rate swaps, cross currency interest rate swaps and principal amount of the Group’s hedged item. Sensitivity Analysis for Interest Rate Risk A change of 100 basis points in interest rates at the reporting date would have increased/(decreased) equity and profit before tax by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant, and has not taken into account the effects of qualifying borrowing costs allowed for capitalisation, the associated tax effects and share of non-controlling interests.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONT’D) (d) Foreign Currency Risk The Group operates internationally and is exposed to various currencies, mainly Singapore Dollar, Australian Dollar, Sterling Pound, US Dollar and the Euro. The purpose of the Group’s and the Company’s foreign currency hedging activities is to protect against the volatility associated with future cash flow arising from investments in and loans granted to foreign subsidiaries. The Group and Company uses forward exchange contracts or foreign currency loans to hedge its foreign currency risk, where feasible. It generally enters into forward exchange contracts with maturities ranging between three months and one year which are rolled over at market rates at maturity or foreign currency loans which match the Group’s highly probable transactions and investment in the foreign subsidiaries. The Group also enters into cross currency swaps to hedge the foreign exchange risk of its loans denominated in a foreign currency. The foreign exchange forwards and currency swaps are denominated in the same currency as the highly probable transactions, therefore the economic relationship is 100% effective. In addition to transactional exposures, the Group is also exposed to foreign exchange movements on its net investment in foreign subsidiaries. The Group maintains a natural hedge, whenever possible, by borrowing in the currency of the country in which its property or investment is located or by borrowing in currencies that match the future revenue stream to be generated from its investments. Hedge ineffectiveness may occur due to: (i) changes in timing of the forecasted transaction from what was originally planned; and (ii) changes in the credit risk of the derivative counterparty or the Group.

FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (a) Fair Value Hierarchy The Group categorises fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that is dependent on the valuation inputs used as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices). Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Fair value measurements that use inputs of different hierarchy levels are categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. (b) Classifications and Fair Values The following tables show the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy.

FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CONT’D) (c) Determination of Fair Value The following valuation methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values of the following significant classes of assets and liabilities: (i) Derivatives Foreign currency forward contracts, cross currency interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps and interest rate swaps are valued using valuation techniques with market observable inputs. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing and swap models, using present valuation calculations. The models incorporate various inputs including the foreign exchange spot and forward rates, interest rate and forward rate curves. (ii) Non-Derivative Financial Liabilities Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted using the market rate of interest at the reporting date. (iii) Other Financial Assets and Liabilities The fair value of quoted securities is their quoted bid price at the reporting date. The fair values of unquoted equity investments are derived based on discounted cash flow method, option pricing model and transacted price between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably and without compulsion. The discounted cash flow method involves the estimation and projection of net cash flows over a period and discounting the stream of net cash flow (including estimated terminal net cash flow) at an estimated required rate of return to arrive at the net present value. The option pricing model allocates the equity value (determined via the discounted cash flow method) across various classes of shares in the underlying investment’s capital structure by taking into account the liquidation preferences, conversion rights and participating rights of different equity classes. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities with a maturity of less than one year (including trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other payables and short term bank borrowings) are assumed to approximate their fair values because of the short period to maturity. All other financial assets and liabilities are discounted to determine their fair values. (iv) Investment Properties As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, assessing fair value as at the reporting date involved considering uncertainties around the underlying assumptions and inputs to fair value given the forward-looking nature of these assumptions. The COVID-19 pandemic has also created unprecedented economic uncertainty, in particular the absence of a significant level of market transactions which are ordinarily a key source of evidence for assessing the fair value of investment properties. As such, the 30 September 2020 valuation process has been adjusted for the current period compared to the process that would typically be followed and adopted in more normalised market conditions. In view of uncertainties and lack of market transactions brought upon by COVID-19, the Group increased the level of independent valuation across its segments for current period.

FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CONT’D) (c) Determination of Fair Value (cont’d) (iv) Investment Properties (cont’d) The Group’s investment property portfolio is mostly valued by external and independent valuers at least once every two years. Independent valuation is also carried out on occurrence of acquisition and on completion of construction of investment property. The fair values are based on open market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably and without compulsion. The valuers have considered valuation techniques including market comparison method, capitalisation method and discounted cash flow method in arriving at the open market value as at the reporting date. In determining the fair value, the valuers have used valuation techniques which involve certain estimates. The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of investment properties include market-corroborated capitalisation rate, terminal yield rate, discount rate, comparable market price and occupancy rate. IPUC are stated at fair value which has been determined based on valuations performed at reporting date. Valuations are performed by accredited independent valuers with recognised and relevant professional qualification or internal valuers with recent experience in the location and category of the properties being valued. The fair values of IPUC are determined using a combination of capitalisation method, discounted cash flow method and residual land value method, where appropriate. The market comparison method involves the analysis of comparable sales of similar properties and adjusting the sale prices to that reflective of the investment properties. The capitalisation method capitalises the estimated net income of the property for perpetuity or the balance term of the lease tenure at a capitalisation rate that is appropriate for the type of use, tenure and reflective of the quality of the investment property. Capital adjustments are then made to derive the capital value of the property. The discounted cash flow method involves the estimation and projection of net cash flows over a period and discounting the stream of net cash flow (including estimated terminal net cash flow) at an estimated required rate of return to arrive at the net present value. In the residual land value method of valuation, the value of the property in its existing partially completed state of construction taking into account the cost of work done is arrived at by deducting estimated cost to complete, other relevant costs and developer’s profit from the gross development value of the proposed development, assuming satisfactory completion. In relying on the valuation reports, management has exercised its judgement and is satisfied that the valuation methods and estimates are reflective of current market conditions. (v) Assets Held for Sale The fair value of the Group’s investment properties held for sale is either valued by an independent valuer or based on agreed contractual selling price on a willing buyer seller basis. For investment properties held for sale valued by an independent valuer, the valuer has considered the direct comparison and income capitalisation approaches in arriving at the open market value as at the balance sheet date. In determining the fair value, the valuer used valuation techniques which involve certain estimates. The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of investment properties held for sale include market-corroborated capitalisation rate.

(iii) Valuation Policies and Procedures The significant non-financial asset of the Group categorised within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy is investment properties. Generally, the fair values of investment properties are determined at least once every two years by independent professional valuers. Investment properties that are not independently valued are carried at fair value determined by directors’ valuation. The independent professional valuers and internal valuation teams where each member of the teams is professionally qualified and is an accredited property valuer (collectively, the “Valuers”) are experts who possess the relevant credentials and knowledge on the subject of property valuation, valuation methodologies and SFRS(I) 13 fair value measurement guidance to perform the valuation. For valuations performed by the Valuers, the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies and assumptions adopted are reviewed along with the appropriateness and reliability of the inputs (including those developed internally by the Group) used in the valuations. In selecting the appropriate valuation models and inputs to be adopted for each valuation that uses significant non-observable inputs, the Valuers are required to recalibrate the valuation models and inputs to actual market transactions (which may include transactions entered into by the Group with third parties as appropriate) that are relevant to the valuation if such information is reasonably available. For valuations that are sensitive to the unobservable inputs used, the Valuers are required, to the extent practicable, to use a minimum of two valuation approaches to allow for cross-checks. Significant changes in fair value measurements from period to period are evaluated for reasonableness. Key drivers of the changes are identified and assessed for reasonableness against relevant information from independent sources, or internal sources if necessary and appropriate. In accordance with the Group’s reporting policies, the valuation process and the results of the independent valuations and directors’ valuation are reviewed at least once a year by the Executive Committee of the Board and the Audit Committee before the results are presented to the Board of Directors for approval. (e) Fair Value of Financial Instruments by Classes that are not Carried at Fair Value and whose Carrying Amounts are not Reasonable Approximation of Fair Value (i) Other Receivables (Non-Current) and Other Payables (Non-Current) No disclosure of fair value is made for non-current other receivables and other payables as it is not practicable to determine their fair values with sufficient reliability since the balances have no fixed terms of repayment. The Group and the Company do not anticipate that the carrying amounts recorded at the end of the financial year would be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled. (ii) Rental Deposits Payables (Non-Current) No disclosure of fair value is made for rental deposits payables as the Group does not anticipate that the carrying amounts recorded at the end of the financial year would be significantly different from the values that would eventually be received or settled.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximise shareholder value. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the dividend payment to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. No changes were made in the objectives, policies or processes during the years ended 30 September 2020 and 30 September 2019. The Group monitors capital using a gearing ratio, which is net debt divided by total equity, as follows: Bank deposits Cash and cash equivalents Loans and borrowings Net borrowings Total equity Group 2020 $'000 2019 $'000 236,886 3,085,110 (19,187,634) 467,023 3,112,956 (17,395,899) (15,865,638) (13,815,920) 15,115,284 16,090,546 Net borrowings over total equity ratio 1.05 0.86 Certain entities in the Group are required to comply with certain externally imposed capital requirements in respect of some of their external borrowings, and these have been complied with during the year. 37.

At the time of acquisition, the Group considers whether each acquisition represents the acquisition of a business or the acquisition of an asset. The Group accounts for an acquisition as a business combination where an integrated set of activities is acquired in addition to the property, and together, they are capable of being managed to provide returns to the Group.

ADOPTION OF NEW STANDARDS The Group has applied the following SFRS(I)s, amendments to and interpretations of SFRS(I) for the first time for the annual period beginning on 1 October 2019: – – – – – – – – SFRS(I) 16 Leases SFRS(I) INT 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures (Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-28) Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation (Amendments to SFRS(I) 9) Previously Held Interest in a Joint Operation (Amendments to SFRS(I) 3 and 11) Income Tax Consequences of Payments on Financial Instruments Classified as Equity (Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-12) Borrowing Costs Eligible for Capitalisation (Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-23) Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement (Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-19) In addition, the Group has early adopted the Amendments to SFRS(I) 9 Financial Instruments, SFRS(I) 1-39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and SFRS(I) 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures in relation to the project on interest rate benchmark reform. Other than SFRS(I) 16, the application of these amendments to standards and interpretations does not have a material effect on the financial statements. SFRS(I) 16 Leases The Group applied SFRS(I) 16 using the modified retrospective approach, under which the cumulative effect of initial application is recognised in retained earnings at 1 October 2019. Accordingly, the comparative information presented for 2019 is not restated – i.e. it is presented, as previously reported, under SFRS(I) 1-17 and related interpretations. Definition of a lease Previously, the Group determined at contract inception whether an arrangement was or contained a lease under SFRS(I) INT 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease. The Group now assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease based on the definition of a lease, as explained in SFRS(I) 16. On transition to SFRS(I) 16, the Group elected to apply the practical expedient to grandfather the assessment of which transactions are leases. The Group applied SFRS(I) 16 only to contracts that were previously identified as leases. Contracts that were not identified as leases under SFRS(I) 1-17 and SFRS(I) INT 4 were not reassessed for whether there is a lease under SFRS(I) 16. Therefore, the definition of a lease under SFRS(I) 16 was applied only to contracts entered into or changed on or after 1 October 2019.

ADOPTION OF NEW STANDARDS (CONT’D) As a lessee As a lessee, the Group leases many assets including land and buildings, equipment, offices and motor vehicles. The Group used a number of practical expedients when applying SFRS(I) 16 to leases previously classified as operating leases under SFRS(I) 1-17. In particular, the Group: – – – – did not recognise right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases for which the lease term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application; did not recognise right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases of low-value assets (e.g. IT equipment); excluded initial direct costs from the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application; and used hindsight when determining the lease term. Previously, the Group classified property leases as operating leases under SFRS(I) 1-17. On transition, for these leases, lease liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the respective lessee entities incremental borrowing rates applicable to the leases as at 1 October 2019. Right-of-use assets are measured at either: – – their carrying amount as if SFRS(I) 16 had been applied since the commencement date, discounted using the Group’s incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial application; or an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments. The Group has tested its right-of-use assets for impairment on the date of transition and has concluded that there is no indication that the right-of-use assets are impaired. As a lessor The Group leases out its investment property, including own property and right-of-use assets. The Group has classified these leases as operating leases. The Group is not required to make any adjustments on transition to SFRS(I) 16 for leases in which it acts as a lessor, except for a sub-lease. The Group sub-leases some of its properties. Under SFRS(I) 1-17, the head lease and sub-lease contracts were classified as operating leases. On transition to SFRS(I) 16, the right-of-use assets recognised from the head leases are presented in investment property, and measured at fair value at that date. The Group assessed the classification of the sub-lease contracts with reference to the right-of-use asset rather than the underlying asset, and concluded that they are operating leases under SFRS(I) 16. The Group has also reassessed the classification of subleases to finance lease based on remaining contractual terms and condition of the head lease.
