  4. Why Dream Global Significant improvement in asset quality and tenant diversification have lead to stable, high quality cash flows Gross rental income (GRI) from Deutsche Post, which was 85% at the time of IPO, is now only 34%. We’ve also  increased GRI contribution in the “Big 7 ” German office markets to 65%. We have been selling our Deutsche Post assets at book value or better and have been realizing cap rate  compression and value appreciation on our development opportunities. To date, only 600k sf GLA (<4% of total portfolio) of unannounced terminations remain in our Deutsche Post assets. Dream Global currently offers a superior and well-covered cash yield of 8.8%.  Strategic JV opportunities leverage our expertise to source and manage high quality office properties Our recently announcement partnership with POBA highlights our strong global relationship/management  platform and allows us the potential for future joint venture investment opportunities alongside POBA or other partners. 4

  5. Dream Global REIT is being recognized for establishing an excellent platform We recently entered into a strategic joint venture partnership with Public Official Benefits Association (POBA), a South Korean pension fund to sell a 50% interest in seven of our properties for € 221 million. This transaction will allow us to leverage our operating platform and redeploy the proceeds into highly accretive opportunities that are already identified. Deal Merits : We realized a significant cap rate compression from 6.3% as at acquisition to 5.3% on sale  The REIT will be receiving asset management and leasing fee income of C$ 1.2 million p.a. from POBA  The transaction provides us with the opportunity to refinance over € 110 million of mortgages at 100 bps  lower interest rates when reinvesting the proceeds The REIT realized a cash gain of over € 70 million (100% of the assets) over our acquisition price,  including the recovery of land transfer tax and financing costs Reinvestment of proceeds provides opportunities to further diversify the portfolio and grow fee  income through additional joint ventures “ This strategic joint venture and significant acquisition of a high quality office portfolio in Germany allows us to expand into one of the most highly sought-after real estate markets in the world. With Dream, we have found a partner on the ground who is not only an experienced owner and operator of real estate but also understands our 5 unique requirements,” said Eunghan Park, Executive Managing Director of POBA.
