Formerly known as the Lifestyle Quarter, The Exchange TRX is the centrepiece of the upcoming 70-acre international financial district Tun Razak Exchange (TRX). The 17-acre joint venture development will comprise a hotel, a grade A office, residential apartments, retail and leisure offerings, all integrated with a new 10-acre city park. It brings to life the ‘experience economy’, where quality of place and focus on people is at the forefront of design. The event, officiated by The Honourable YB Lim Guan Eng, the Finance Minister of Malaysia, also marked the signing of RM2.15 billion financing facilities by four major banks, Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC), Standard Chartered Bank (SCB), Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) and Malayan Banking Berhad (MBB or Maybank). The investment by Lendlease and the commitment of the major global banks demonstrates the international business and financial community’s confidence in the development. Present at the event was Lendlease Group’s Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Mr. Steve McCann where he witnessed the signing of the debt financing agreement along with Malaysia’s Finance Minister. Speaking at the ceremony, Tony Lombardo, Lendlease’s CEO Asia expressed Lendlease’s commitment to the project and to the joint venture with TRX City, which is wholly owned by the Ministry of Finance (MoF). He said, “This a unique opportunity that reflects the very best of modern city design, combining living, working and leisure uses, with excellent public transport and technology. It will create a new destination for the city and be a showcase for Malaysia.” “We are confident in the future of Malaysia and congratulate the Government on their vision and drive to realise this landmark project. This is a global priority project for Lendlease and by working with TRX City, we bring together the best of both local and international expertise to realise this world-class destination for Kuala Lumpur”, said Mr. Lombardo. The Finance Minister YB Lim Guan Eng, in his speech at the launch, noted the financing agreement was based purely on the strength of the project alone, without any new guarantees from the Government. “I am pleased with the progress at TRX that I see today. It is the fruits of reforms currently being carried out by the Government of the day. I hope this launch today marks one of the many steps Malaysia is taking to put 1MDB behind us, allowing us to focus on what matters; to continue to raise the well-being of Malaysians,” said the Finance Minister. Page 1 of 4 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE "Lendlease's decision to proceed with the project shows its confidence in the government's commitment to the Competent, Accountability, and Transparency (CAT) Principles, towards building a corruption-free Malaysia. It is also a vote of confidence for the government's efforts towards restoring Malaysia's fiscal position,” he said. Dato’ Azmar Talib, Chief Executive Officer of TRX City Sdn Bhd, the master developer for the project, stated that, “2019 is indeed going to be a big year for TRX, as we will start opening our doors to our first tenant in the second quarter of this year.” “The Exchange TRX has all the components to help elevate the broader TRX development into a world-class international financial district, ensuring that it will be a vibrant, inclusive, and city- defining destination,” he said. The broader TRX is a significant public-private project of national importance, bringing together best practices in economic, social and environmental development. As Malaysia’s first international financial district and Kuala Lumpur’s future CBD, TRX will strengthen Kuala Lumpur’s position as a leading centre for international finance and business by creating a seamless and central business environment for financial services firms, multinational companies (MNCs) and other businesses. The completion value of the entire TRX development is estimated to exceed RM40 billion. Its lifestyle precinct, The Exchange TRX, has a forecast end value in excess of RM9.0 billion (A$3.1 billion), and brings to life the ‘experience economy’, where quality of place and focus on people is at the forefront of design. Mr Lombardo added that the project is making excellent progress, with all the key design complete and over 1,300 construction workers on-site daily including new apprentices and associated worker training programmes. We are collaborating closely with Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) and our subcontractors to ensure the highest site safety and quality standards, whilst contributing to the construction industry here in Kuala Lumpur.

    Section 3 Project Description Projek Mass Rapid Transit Laluan 2 : Sg. Buloh – Serdang - Putrajaya Detailed Environmental Impact Assessment SECTION 3 : PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3. SECTION 3 : PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3.1 INTRODUCTION The main objective of the Project is to facilitate future travel demand in the Klang Valley and to complement the connectivity to Kuala Lumpur by improving the current rail coverage and increasing accessibility of public transport network to areas not currently served or covered by public transport. The SSP Line will serve the existing residential areas, minimize overlapping with existing rail service and provide convenient access to Kuala Lumpur city centre. This section describes the Project in terms of the proposed alignment and stations, the planning and design basis, operation system and the construction methodology. 3.2 PLANNING AND DESIGN BASIS The over-arching principles in the development of the KVMRT is even network coverage, entry into the city centre, location of stations in densely populated areas and ability to sustain future expansion. The GKL/KV PTMP has identified key issues in the rail network such as capacity and quality of existing systems, integration between modes, gaps in network coverage and mismatch in land use planning. Considering the gap in the network, particularly in the northwest – southern corridor, the SSP Line is designed to serve the city centre to Sg Buloh, Kepong, Serdang and Putrajaya areas. The SSP Line will traverse through high density residential and commercial areas and has the capacity to move large volumes of people from the suburban areas to the employment and business centres. In terms of planning basis, the main objectives of the Project are as follows:- • To meet the increasing demand for rail based urban public transportation • To increase the railway network coverage and its capacity • To provide better integration between the new SSP Line and existing rail lines such as LRT, Monorail, SBK Line and KTM lines as well as the future High Spee Rail.
