Mainland has been made aware that following trades executed on 24 December 2018 on the Official Market of the Stock

CHANGE IN INVESTMENT STRATEGY AND TARGETED JURISDICTIONS

Shareholders and the general public are further informed that the Board has broadened the scope of the company's
investment strategy and targeted additional investment jurisdictions, while staying within the real estate space. In
addition to achieving its primary objective of investing directly or indirectly in global real estate assets, the company's
new investment strategy is geared towards also opportunistically acquiring external management companies whenever
Mainland intends to invest in or acquire any real estate assets which are managed by an external management company.
Furthermore, in addition to the existing targeted investment jurisdictions, namely the United Kingdom and selected
Western European jurisdictions, Mainland also intends to extend the range of its targeted jurisdictions to include parts
of Southeastern Asia, Africa and the Indian Ocean.

The company will continue to focus on investments which will deliver favourable returns for investors through both
income and capital growth.
