Dividend policy guidance • To protect the long term strength of the business, the dividend has been temporarily suspended in response to Covid-19 • As a REIT, the dividend is an important element of shareholder return • The Board is focussed on resuming dividends at an appropriate level as soon as there is sufficient clarity of outlook • Guiding principles: • A significant improvement in rent collection • More visibility on the post lockdown productivity of our assets, principally how quickly retail customers and office workers return. 11
