The GRESB Real Estate Assessment is the investor-driven global ESG benchmark and
GRESB Assessment reporting framework for listed property companies, private property funds, developers
and investors that invest directly in real estate.
The term performance refers to a measurable result. It refers to the measurable results
that activities, processes, products, services, systems, and organizations can achieve. So,
Performance
whenever processes, products, services, systems, or organizations perform well it means
that acceptable results are being achieved.
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a joint initiative by CDP, the UN Global
Compact (UNGC), the World Resources Institute (WRI) and WWF. Science-based targets

show companies how much and how quickly they need to reduce their greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions to prevent the worst effects of climate change.
The Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) is an organization that was
established in December of 2015 with the goal of developing a set of voluntary climate-
TCFD Framework related financial risk disclosures which can be adopted by companies so that those
companies can inform investors and other members of the public about the risks they face
related to climate change.
2.1.2 RSG is in the process of transitioning to a Group structure, where further projects will be added. It is expected that each
project will be aligned with these guidelines for Sustainability Performance. In addition, the Group and its subsidiary
development companies will also comply with this guideline.
2.1.3 Red Sea Global will comply with Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards for reporting & publicly disclosing our
Environmental, Social and Economic performance. This Sustainability Performance Management System aims to put in place
the data collection processes necessary to track our performance, for both internal and external reporting purposes.
• Provides data for ESG reporting and disclosures, forming the basis of publicly available Sustainability Reports
• Allows us to monitor risks, issues and impacts from the project.
• Provide us with a means of measuring progress towards the achievement of objectives.
• Improves credibility and accountability, and builds stakeholder trust.
• Provide quantitative or qualitative forms of feedback that reflect performance in the context of the business strategy.
• Define baseline performance, which can be used for continual improvement & target-setting.
• Identify and prioritize ESG opportunities, including monetization (Green Finance, Carbon Credits, etc.)
• Support the company in strategic planning and managing of ESG priorities.
2.3.2 It is the responsibility of all C-suite and senior leadership to support in defining, implementing, and maintaining the
procedures required by this Guideline and to ensure that all processes conform to these requirements.
2.3.3 It is the responsibility of all employees to follow the procedures that implement these policies and to strive for continuous
improvement in all activities and processes taken forward by RSG.

The RSG Sustainability KPIs are defined by three main pillars; Environmental, Social and Economic, that are based on the
objectives of the RSG Sustainability Strategy.
• Water Consumption Management: measurement of water consumed that has been withdrawn, recycled, and discharged
from the sewage treatment plant (STP) with the following goals:
o Achieving near-zero water discharge.
o Developing an integrative design for water conservation.
• Waste Management: measurement of waste generated; hazardous and non-hazardous, either to be recycled or sent to
landfill with the following goals:
o Zero solid waste to landfill during operations.
o Zero single use plastics.
o Divert wastes from landfill during construction.
o Avoid hazardous waste generation.
• Energy Efficiency: measurement of fuel/electricity consumed from renewable and non-renewable sources with the
following goals:
o Optimizing energy use and consumption.
o Adhering to globally recognized energy standards and KSA codes.
• Green Certification: measurement of the percentage of assets certified and to be certified according to sustainability
standards with the following goals:
o Increase % assets with green certification, such as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) or
Mostadam.
• Site selection and Planning: measurement of the percentages of mangroves compensated and corals enhanced in RSG’s
project area with the following goals:
o Development on land of conservation value.
o Assess and minimize impact of development on the environment.
o Establish and improve monitoring, reviewing, and reporting systems

3.3.1.1 The data is collected from the relevant taskforce by using the data collection forms that have been developed
to be utilized at Corporate and Site Project levels. The data collection form identifies the program, asset, year,
and reporting frequency. It includes the guidelines and instructions for all taskforce members. The taskforce
members are expected to fill the data collection form, validate, and submit the data to the Sustainability
Performance team by specific timelines. Inaccurate data will result in the rejection of the data collection forms
and are returned to the taskforce to be revalidated and resubmitted. Similarly, the Environmental Compliance
team have their own separate data collection process for the Contractors as shown below:
