1. INTRODUCTION

   The Board of Directors (the "Board" or the "Directors") of City Developments Limited (the "Company") wishes to announce that at the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") of the Company held on 29 April 2026, the shareholders of the Company approved, inter alia, a general mandate ("Share Purchase Mandate") to authorise the Directors of the Company to purchase or otherwise acquire, on behalf of the Company, amongst others, issued non-redeemable convertible non-cumulative preference shares of the Company ("Preference Shares") in accordance with the terms set out in the Letter to Shareholders dated 31 March 2026 as well as the Companies Act 1967 of Singapore, the Constitution of the Company, and the Listing Manual ("Listing Manual") of Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited ("SGX-ST").

2. PROPOSED SHARE PURCHASE

   Pursuant to the Share Purchase Mandate, the Company proposes to undertake an off-market purchase of Preference Shares in accordance with an equal access scheme ("Off-Market Equal Access Offer").

3. DESPATCH OF LETTERS AND ACCEPTANCE FORMS

   A formal letter (the "Letter to Preference Shareholders") setting out the terms and conditions of, and the rationale for, the Off-Market Equal Access Offer and enclosing the acceptance forms for the Off-Market Equal Access Offer ("Acceptance Forms"), will be despatched to persons who are registered as holders of Preference Shares in the Register of Members of the Company (the "Register") or Depositors 1 who have Preference Shares entered against their names in the Depository Register1 (collectively, the "Preference Shareholders") on or about 22 May 2026.

4. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE OFF-MARKET EQUAL ACCESS OFFER

   The terms and conditions of the Off-Market Equal Access Offer will be set out in the Letter to Preference Shareholders and the Acceptance Forms, and will include the following:

   1. Maximum Buyback Amount

      1. Each Preference Shareholder is entitled to sell 10 per cent. of the total number of Preference Shares held by such Preference Shareholder as registered in his or her

         ‌1 As defined in Section 81SF of the Securities and Futures Act 2001 of Singapore.

         own name in the Register, and/or standing to the credit of the "Free Balance" of such Preference Shareholder's securities account ("Securities Account") with The Central Depository (Pte) Limited ("CDP"), as the case may be, as at 5.30 p.m. (Singapore time) on 3 June 2026 or such later date(s) as may be announced from time to time by the Company (the "Record Date"), fractional entitlements to be disregarded (the "Entitled Shares"), subject to the procedures for acceptance as set out in the Appendix to the Letter to Preference Shareholders.

      2. In addition to the entitlement to sell the Entitled Shares, Preference Shareholders may tender Preference Shares in excess of the Entitled Shares of such Preference Shareholder (the "Excess Shares") in acceptance of the Off-Market Equal Access Offer if other Preference Shareholders do not accept their full entitlement under the Off-Market Equal Access Offer.

      3. Notwithstanding the above, the Company will only buy back up to 24,120,733 Preference Shares in aggregate, representing approximately 10 per cent. of the total number of 241,207,335 Preference Shares in issue as at 29 April 2026, being the date on which the Share Purchase Mandate was approved (the "Maximum Buyback Amount").

   2. Offer Price

      The offer price for each Preference Share shall be S$0.78 in cash.

   3. Determination of actual number of Preference Shares to be acquired from each Preference Shareholder

      1. At the close of the Off-Market Equal Access Offer, the Company will purchase the Preference Shares (based on the number of Preference Shares as indicated or deemed to be indicated in the Acceptance Forms) validly tendered by the accepting Preference Shareholders ("Accepting Shareholders") in acceptance of the Company's offer (in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Acceptance Forms), subject to any adjustments in accordance with paragraphs 4(C)(ii) and (iii) below.

      2. ‌If the number of Preference Shares tendered is not indicated by the Accepting Shareholder in the Acceptance Form, the Accepting Shareholder shall be deemed NOT to have accepted the Off-Market Equal Access Offer.

      3. ‌If the number of Preference Shares tendered is more than the number of such Accepting Shareholder's Entitled Shares, the number of Preference Shares in excess of such Entitled Shares shall be treated as Excess Shares. If the total number of Preference Shares tendered exceeds the Maximum Buyback Amount, any Entitled Shares tendered will be accepted but Excess Shares tendered by each Accepting Shareholder will be scaled down on a pro rata basis to ensure that the

         Company buys back no more than the Maximum Buyback Amount. In scaling down the number of Excess Shares tendered by Accepting Shareholders, the Company will also endeavour to round down odd lots to the closest 100 Preference Shares.

      4. Where any Preference Shareholder would, after the application of paragraph (iii), own less than 100 Preference Shares, the Company reserves the right to accept any remaining Excess Shares tendered by such Preference Shareholder, with a view to acquiring all of the Preference Shares of such Preference Shareholder, provided always that the total number of Preference Shares acquired by the Company does not exceed the Maximum Buyback Amount.

   4. Duration of Off-Market Equal Access Offer

      The Off-Market Equal Access Offer will be open for acceptance by Preference Shareholders for a period of 12 calendar days from the date of the Letter to Preference Shareholders.

   5. Rights and encumbrances of Preference Shares

      The Preference Shares which are acquired pursuant to the Off-Market Equal Access Offer (the "Offer Shares") will be acquired fully paid and free from all charges, liens, pledges, trusts and other encumbrances, and together with all rights, benefits and entitlements attached thereto as at the date of this Announcement and thereafter attaching thereto, including the right to receive all dividends, rights, coupon payments and other distributions (if any) ("Distributions") which may be declared, paid or made thereon, on or after the date of this Announcement.

      Accordingly, any Preference Shareholders who accept the Off-Market Equal Access Offer will not receive any Distributions on the Offer Shares which may be declared, paid or made thereon, on or after the date of this Announcement.
5. RATIONALE FOR THE OFF-MARKET EQUAL ACCESS OFFER

The Off-Market Equal Access Offer allows the Company to exercise greater control over the Company's share capital structure in relation to the Preference Shares. The Company does not have any current intention to exercise its right of conversion in relation to the Preference Shares. In addition, the trading volume of the Preference Shares continues to remain generally low, with an average daily trading volume2 of approximately 7,550 Preference Shares, 9,677 Preference Shares, 6,024 Preference Shares and 9,123 Preference Shares during the one-month, three-month, six-month and twelve-month periods respectively up to and including 11 May 2026, being the last full market day immediately prior to the date of this Announcement on which the Preference Shares were traded on the SGX-ST (the "Last Trading Day"). Each of these represents less than approximately 0.0040 per cent. of the total number of issued Preference Shares for any of the

‌2 The average daily trading volume is computed based on the total volume of Preference Shares traded divided by the number of market days, being days which the SGX-ST is open for the trading of securities, with respect to the one-month period, three-month period, six-month period and twelve-month period up to and including the Last Trading Day.
