pg. 113 Sustainability Statement Integrated Annual Report 2025 GREEN PORTFOLIO As a REIT, the REIT’s business operations revolve around the acquisition and management of properties. Considering buildings contribute significant greenhouse gas emissions and pose other environmental concerns, the REIT aims to increasingly deploy green building certification throughout its portfolio. The use of green building standards allows properties to generate a lower environmental footprint through measures such as passive features, energy-efficient implementations, and renewable energy deployment, which reduces demand for electricity from the national grid, often relying on polluting fossil fuel sources. Moving forward, the REIT has established targets to increase green clause adoption for 100% of its tenants by FY2028. This includes involving the participation of at least half of its tenants in data-sharing programmes and providing incentives to tenants that conduct green certification to further improve the overall environmental footprint of their operations and the REIT’s portfolio. Green Clauses Integrate sustainability clauses in new and renewed tenant leases Include shared ESG data reporting obligations (energy, waste, water) In the medium-term, set between FY2027 and FY2028, the REIT plans to retrofit its heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (“HVAC”) filters and ultraviolet systems to control airborne diseases and contaminants. After these initiatives are implemented, the REIT will deploy air quality control systems in the long-term through the use of smart monitoring integration and IAQ optimisation that ensures air quality control is automated and maintained at healthy levels at all times. These initiatives improve the health, wellbeing, and satisfaction of visitors and occupants, improving the desirability of the REIT’s portfolio and aligning with the REIT’s overarching long-term sustainability strategy. Green Leasing and Responsible Tenancy To date, the REIT has taken the first steps towards establishing a portfolio-wide green lease adoption. JBCC has historically implemented green lease requirements for its tenants. The REIT is currently in the process of integrating green clauses into its tenants’ tenancy agreements for Menara Komtar and Pasaraya Komuniti @Mart Kempas, with further integration across more portfolios planned. The REIT has proposed to obtain GreenRE certification to improve overall building sustainability performance and align with recognised green building standards.

Energy Audit and Preliminary Building Assessment To include the use of energyefficient lighting, water-saving fixtures, and sustainable materials where feasible.
