PROPOSED DIVESTMENT OF 2 UBI VIEW

Cambridge Industrial Trust Management Limited, as manager of Cambridge Industrial Trust ("CIT" and the manager of CIT, the "Manager"), is pleased to announce that RBC Investor Services Trust Singapore Limited (in its capacity as trustee of CIT) (the "Trustee") has entered into an agreement with UBZ System Pte. Ltd. ("UBZ") by way of an option to purchase granted by the Trustee on 22 August 2016 for the proposed sale of the remaining leasehold interest in 2 Ubi View Singapore 408556 (the "Property") for a consideration of S$10.5 million (excluding divestment costs and applicable goods and services tax) (the "Sale Consideration").

The Property is a 5-storey light industrial building located along Ubi View, at the junction of Ubi Road 3 and Ubi Avenue 3, off Eunos Link. It has remaining land tenure of about 42 years and a gross floor area of approximately 43,654 square feet.

The proposed sale originated from an unsolicited offer from UBZ. The completion of the sale of the Property is expected to take place in October 2016.

The Sale Consideration of S$10.5 million represents a premium of approximately 6% above the current book value of S$9.9 million1 and a 40% premium to the purchase price of S$7.50 million in 2006.

This divestment is consistent with CIT's FY2016 business strategy, focused on divestment of non- core properties and recycling capital for greater investment flexibility and better returns.

The sale proceeds from the divestment will be used for the repayment of debt, acquisition opportunities, asset enhancement initiatives and for working capital purposes.
