MAPLETREE GREATER CHINA COMMERCIAL TRUST UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER AND FINANCIAL PERIOD FROM 1 APRIL 2016 TO 31 DECEMBER 2016 Introduction

Mapletree Greater China Commercial Trust ("MGCCT") was constituted in the Republic of Singapore pursuant to a Trust Deed dated 14 February 2013 (as amended on 29 June 2016). MGCCT was listed on Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited ("SGX-ST") on 7 March 2013 (the "Listing Date") as a real estate investment trust. The principal investment strategy of MGCCT is to invest, directly or indirectly, in a diversified portfolio of income-producing real estate in the Greater China region, which is used primarily for commercial purposes (including real estate used predominantly for retail and/or offices), as well as real estate-related assets.

On Listing Date, MGCCT completed the acquisition of Festival Walk, a retail and office building in Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong ("Festival Walk") and Gateway Plaza, a Grade-A office building with a retail podium in the Lufthansa Area in Beijing, China ("Gateway Plaza"). On 17 June 2015, MGCCT acquired Sandhill Plaza, a business park located in Zhangjiang Hi-tech Park in Shanghai, China ("Sandhill Plaza").

The current portfolio of MGCCT comprises three commercial properties in Greater China with a total lettable area of 2.6 million square feet and a total book value of S$6,028.4 million as of 31 December 2016:

  1. Festival Walk, a landmark territorial retail mall and lifestyle destination with an office component in the Kowloon Tong area of Hong Kong. Festival Walk has been consistently ranked as one of the top ten shopping malls in Hong Kong;

  2. Gateway Plaza, a premier Grade-A office building with a retail podium located in the established and prime Lufthansa Area in Beijing, China; and

  3. Sandhill Plaza, a premium quality business park development located at Zhangjiang Hi-tech Park, within the Pudong New Area, Shanghai, China.

All these properties enjoy excellent connectivity via convenient access to major roads, expressways and subway lines, with quality tenants operating across diversified trade sectors.

Mapletree Greater China Commercial Trust Management Ltd. ("MGCCTM" or the "Manager") aims to deliver stable and steady DPU growth to Unitholders, through actively managing and enhancing the properties, acquiring good quality income-producing commercial assets aligned with MGCCT's investment mandate, and having in place an active capital management strategy to manage both interest rate and foreign exchange volatility.

MGCCT's distribution policy is to distribute, on a semi-annual basis, within 90 days of 30 September and 31 March, at least 90.0% of its Distributable Income.

Footnotes:

1 Revenue is presented net of Value Added Tax from May 2016 onwards (previously, Business Tax).

2 Manager's base fee is calculated based on 10% of distributable income for the period. Manager's performance fee is prorated and calculated at 25% on the growth of the annualised FY2016/2017 DPU over the actual FY2015/2016 DPU. As the annualised FY2016/2017 DPU is lower than the actual FY2015/2016 DPU, no performance fee has been recorded for YTD FY2016/2017.
