Author's Note
The DPU of 3.29 cents will be paid on 28 Feb 2010.

Note that the DPU is computed on the basis that none of the S$300m convertible collateral loan due February 2017 is converted into A-REIT Units on or before the book closure date. Accordingly, the actual quantum of DPU may differ if any portion of the convertible collateral loan is converted into Units on or prior to the book closure date.

The DPU was 3.30 cents in the previous quarter.
