Tax Information

Unitholders of United Hampshire US REIT are prohibited from directly or indirectly owning in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding Units, subject to any increase or waiver pursuant to the terms of the Trust Deed and on the recommendation of the Manager. This prohibition is intended to preserve the U.S. REIT status of the Parent U.S. REIT and facilitate the availability of the Portfolio Interest Exemption.

Units held directly or indirectly by any person in excess of the unit ownership limit will be automatically forfeited and held by the Trustee. While forfeited Units are held by the Trustee, all rights attributable to those Units, such as the right to vote and the right to receive distributions, will be held by the Trustee, and the Unitholder from whom the Units are forfeited shall have no right to vote or receive distributions arising from such Units.

Distributions will be declared in U.S. dollars. Each Unitholder will receive his distribution in Singapore dollars equivalent of the U.S. dollar distribution declared, unless he elects to receive the relevant distribution in U.S. dollars by submitting a “Distribution Election Notice” by the relevant cut-off date.

For the portion of the distributions to be paid in Singapore dollars, the Manager will make the necessary arrangements to convert the distributions in U.S. dollars into Singapore dollars, at such exchange rate as the Manager may determine, taking into consideration any premium or discount that may be relevant to the cost of exchange. CDP, the Managers or United Hampshire US REIT shall not be liable for any loss arising from the conversion of distributions payable to Unitholders from U.S. dollars into Singapore dollars. Save for approved depository agents (acting as nominees of their customers), each Unitholder may elect to receive his entire distribution in Singapore dollars or U.S. dollars and shall not be able to elect to receive distributions in a combination of Singapore dollars and U.S. dollars.

Boardroom Corporate & Advisory Services Pte. Ltd., the Unit Registrar of United Hampshire US REIT, will dispatch U.S. tax forms and certifications to Unitholders who do not have valid documentation on file prior to United Hampshire US REIT making any Distributions to Unitholders.
