NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR OVER UNITED STATES WIRE SERVICES.

Melcor Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:MR.UN) (the “REIT”) announced today that it entered into amended and restated asset management and property management agreements with Melcor Developments Ltd. (“Melcor”). Since Melcor REIT’s IPO in May 2013, Melcor has provided asset management and property management services to Melcor REIT.

The Asset Management Agreement was amended to give to Melcor REIT the right to terminate such agreement on one year’s prior written notice (or payment in lieu thereof) if a majority of the independent trustees (i) determine that it is in the best interest of the REIT to internalize asset management services; or (ii) are not satisfied with the performance by Melcor of its duties under such agreement.

The Property Management Agreement was amended to give to the REIT the right to terminate such agreement on one year’s prior written notice (or payment in lieu thereof) if a majority of the independent trustees (i) determine that it is in the best interest of the REIT to internalize property management services; or (ii) are not satisfied with the performance by Melcor Developments of its duties under the agreement.

The lease fee structure in the Property Management Agreement was also amended to provide that effective January 1, 2022: (i) lease fees would only be paid to Melcor for transactions in respect of which a third party leasing agent was not engaged; and (ii) lease fees payable to Melcor would represent current market terms in each particular market within which leasing services are provided to the REIT by Melcor, with the objective being to set each leasing fee at no more, and no less, than an industry-standard rate in each particular market within which leasing services are provided.

The Amended and Restated Asset Management Agreement and the Amended and Restated Property Management Agreement will each be available on www.sedar.com.
