Appointment of ARA Europe as Investment Adviser

Regional REIT (LSE: RGL), the regional office specialist, is pleased to announce that with immediate effect ARA Europe Private Markets Limited ("ARA Europe"), has been appointed as the Company's investment adviser, having acquired this role from Toscafund Asset Management LLP*.

ARA Europe is part of the ESR Group, Asia-Pacific's largest real asset manager with approximately US$150 billion AUM, and the largest sponsor and manager of REITs in the region with a total AUM of approximately US$45 billion.

The acquisition of the investment adviser role by ARA Europe follows the 13 April 2023 announcement that ARA Europe REIT Manager Ltd. had acquired a majority shareholding in London & Scottish Property Investment Management, the Asset Manager, with Stephen Inglis retaining a significant interest.

The Board believes the appointment of ARA Europe will enhance the overall strength and capabilities of the both the investment and asset manager to the benefit of the Company's long-term strategy. Both the management agreements are to continue on the existing terms to November 2026.

Kevin McGrath, Chairman of Regional REIT commented:

"The Board welcomes the appointment of ARA Europe and looks forward to working closely with an experienced and well-resourced team, whilst ensuring the services and operational performance received to date are maintained."

Stephen Inglis, Non-Executive Director of Regional REIT and CEO of London & Scottish Property Investment Management, the Asset Manager, commented:

"We are delighted to confirm ARA Europe's appointment today and believe the Company will benefit from such an experienced and well-resourced manager. Whilst the investment management responsibilities are moving to ARA Europe, the day-to-day management of the Company will remain unchanged and there will be no disruption to the running of Regional REIT during the transition."

*Toscafund Asset Management LLP will continue to act as the alternative investment fund manager ("AIFM") and provide the relevant regulatory services to the Company until an affiliate of ARA Europe has acquired its own regulatory permissions, which is expected to be in early 2024, when the new affiliate will become the AIFM and provide the relevant regulatory services to the Company in place of Toscafund.
