H&R Real Estate Investment Trust

The Board oversees climate related risks and opportunities through the REIT's Compensation, Environmental, Social & Governance and Nominating Committee (the "CESG&N Committee"), currently comprised of three Board members. The CESG&N Committee is responsible for ESG oversight at the REIT level over the REIT's ESG practices, including thorough review of the REIT's policies, and managing the REIT's environmental goals. The CESG&N committee meets quarterly, and ESG is a primary topic. The Board is made aware of the ESG performance and on-going risks and opportunities through the Corporate Responsibility Report, and the GRESB, ISS, and other benchmarking scores. The progress, submission, publication, and next steps resulting from these initiatives are consistently reviewed by the CESG&N Committee. For the industrial component of the portfolio, the sustainability officer updates an "environmental issues log" on a quarterly basis and presents it to the senior leadership team. For the remainder of the portfolio, the sustainability officer completes a quarterly statement, addressed to the senior leadership, regarding environmental issues.

The REIT's Compensation, Environmental, Social & Governance and Nominating Committee (the "CESG&N Committee"), currently comprised of Brenna Haysom (Chair), Lindsay Brand, Donald Clow and S.
