1. What is a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT)?

A REIT is a stock corporation that invests primarily in income-generating real estate assets.

As defined under the PSE Rules, an LSI is a share subscriber who is willing to subscribe or purchase a minimum board lot or whose subscription or purchase does not exceed ₱100,000.00 under the LSI program.

The Firm Shares allocated for the LSI tranche may be purchased by any natural person of legal age regardless of nationality, or any corporation, association, partnership, trust account, fund or entity organized under the laws of the Philippines, regardless of nationality, subject to the restrictions on ownership, as described in the Final REIT Plan, and the Company’s right to reject, in whole or in part, an Application to Subscribe to the Firm Shares (the “Application”), or reduce the number of Firm Shares applied for subscription.
