It is hereby announced that the Issuer wishes to convert each Series into "green bonds". To that end, the Issuer will commit to retrospectively allocate an amount equivalent to the outstanding principal amount of each Series to eligible green assets in accordance with the Green Financing Framework of the Issuer (the "Green Financing Framework").

To that end, the Issuer has today launched consent solicitation exercises (the "Consent Solicitations") for each Series to ask the relevant holders of the Bonds (the "Bondholders") for consent in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Bonds and the relevant bondholder meeting provisions of each Series.

Each Consent Solicitation will commence on 25 April 2022 and will expire at 12:30 (CET) on 16 May 2022 or, if the Issuer confirms the calling of an adjourned general meeting, at 12:30 (CET) on 30 May 2022, unless the period for such Consent Solicitation is extended or earlier terminated by the Issuer in its sole discretion.

The relevant notice calling the bondholder meetings (the "Notice") as well as the Green Financing Framework, the Independent Auditors Report relating to the allocation of the outstanding principal amount to eligible green assets as well as additional information relating to the Consent Solicitations are available athttps://www.merlinproperties.com/en/investors/debt/consent-solicitations-green-bond-proposal/.

A description of the action to be taken by Bondholders that wish to participate in the Consent Solicitations is set out in the Notice.

If Bondholders have any questions or requests for assistance in connection with participating in the Consent Solicitations, they should contact Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank acting as the Sole Consent Solicitation Agent or Lucid Issuer Services Limited acting as the Tabulation and Information Agent, the contact details for whom are set out below.
