Commitment to Tenants

At our Core Holdings portfolio, Rockefeller Group conducts various tenant engagement initiatives to educate and motivate tenants to participate in and continue to support and improve the sustainability initiatives outlined by the company . In so doing, we provide opportunities for tenants to pursue sustainability while improving performance across our portfolio .

TENANT ENGAGEMENT EVENTS

Rockefeller Group hosts sustainability-focused events to engage and educate Core Holdings tenants on our corporate sustainability program . These events present Rockefeller Group’s corporate sustainability initiatives, including strategies for how tenants can incorporate sustainability and efficiency into their own spaces . Events have explained the Environmental Management System and other relevant sustainability programs at the properties and demonstrated how tenant participation is essential to the success of these programs . We also present information on LL97, what this means for our tenants, and strategies on how to reduce carbon emissions .

We dedicate efforts toward resource efficiency and wellness for tenants by focusing on topics such as: • Green cleaning • Green maintenance • Pest management • Lighting upgrades • Health and well-being, indoor air quality and ventilation

We also engage with tenants through numerous communications including surveys, memos, monthly newsletters, and emails .

SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS

The new policies will be the basis for ongoing base building operations within the Core Holdings portfolio . Rockefeller Group will continue to engage and educate tenants on their responsibilities, and provide resources so they can reach beyond the buildings’ requirements .

TENANT HEALTH AND WELL-BEING

One of our top priorities is our tenants’ health and well-being . To keep our building occupants of our Core Holdings portfolio healthy, we have put in place the following requirements for low-emitting materials .

• Interior paints and coatings applied on-site must meet stringent volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions requirements . A General Emissions Evaluation for paints and coatings applied to walls, floors, and ceilings is also requested . • Interior adhesives and sealants applied on-site (including flooring adhesive) must meet stringent VOC emissions requirements .

In 2021, Rockefeller Group evaluated the current HVAC systems equipment and operation as it relates to indoor air quality, the system’s ability to adopt new indoor air quality technology and operations and investigated monitoring and reporting options . We studied document management upgrades and revised operating procedures for air-side systems in response to ASHRAE Epidemic guidelines . We intend to identify and evaluate additional measures that can be implemented at the base building level for air-side systems, including filtration, UV, and operational adjustments .
