“We are delighted to have partnered
with CMB Wing Lung and CMBI in launching this maiden medium term note issue of
Sunlight REIT, with the competitive pricing of the Notes clearly demonstrating its
strong capital market recognition. Similar to the Japanese yen 7,000 million

again illustrates the Manager’s commitment to diversifying Sunlight REIT’s
sources of funding, while strengthening its exposure to fixed rate borrowing.”
