The Link REIT invested HK$120 million to modernise the 30-year-old market and the notable achievements of this project include: • Modernised shopping environment for shoppers and tenants • Upgraded ventilation and lighting systems • Introduced new and unique tenants selling high quality produce from around the world • Increased footfall CHOI WAN COMMERCIAL COMPLEX The rejuvenation of 34-year-old Choi Wan Commercial Complex was completed in December 2013 with an investment of HK$222 million. Sustainability and green building concepts were injected as key elements in the redesign process, including: • Minimised heating load and energy consumption by encouraging natural ventilation • Enhanced green spaces for the local community to enjoy • Upgraded children’s playground facilities • Preserved the historic banyan tree, an iconic feature of the Choi Wan community BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (“BMS”) A comprehensive BMS was installed across 69 air-conditioned shopping centres in The Link REIT’s property portfolio. The BMS improves operational efficiency and reduces the environmental impact of our energy consumption through: • Real time monitoring of indoor air temperatures • Enabling the remote management of indoor environment of all 69 properties from a centralised location • Enhanced effective management of properties through zoning In the future, the BMS can be expanded to control and manage all electrical-related features of shopping centres, including lighting, automated fire alarms and CCTV, and has the potential to drive further efficiency across our operations. Annual Report 2013/2014 5 INTEGRATED REPORT A COMPREHENSIVE INSIGHT INTO OUR BUSINESS Linking sustainability with everything we do is our way of ensuring that we are creating long-term value for our Unitholders and the communities that we serve.

To operate our business in a responsible and sustainable manner, we strive to implement global best practices in everything that we do. Assessing our performance and reporting on our progress is critical to ensure that we are continually improving, and we do so across a range of both financial and non-financial measures.
