Emaar Development PJSC (the “Company”) has operated as part of Emaar Properties since its inception in 1997. The Government of Dubai gifted Emaar Properties the initial components of its land bank in 1998. In 1999, Emaar Properties launched Emirates Living, the first major freehold integrated lifestyle masterplan community in Dubai. The second project, Dubai Marina, launched in 2000 and was shortly thereafter followed in 2002 and 2004 with the launch of the Emaar Properties’ desert-themed integrated lifestyle masterplan community, Arabian Ranches, and Downtown Dubai, its flagship community that combines commercial, residential, hotel, entertainment, shopping and leisure developments. The business of Emaar Properties was restructured to carve out the division and activities of real estate development out of Emaar Properties and transfer such division and activities to the Company since the latter is a subsidiary of Emaar Properties group.

After the successful carve out process and the transfer of the real estate development division and activities of Emaar Properties to the Company, the Company became the leading developer of integrated lifestyle masterplan communities in Dubai, which feature world-class residential and commercial property, shopping malls and other retail assets and high-end hospitality and leisure attractions. Redefining the traditional approaches to property development, the Company’s integrated lifestyle masterplan communities are distinguished by their world-class design, superior build quality, high quality finishes and wide range of amenities. Its integrated lifestyle masterplan concept combines retail, hospitality, leisure and other requirements of the Company’s residents within secure, well-maintained communities. In addition, the Company ensures through its collaboration with local regulators, utility companies and government agencies that the infrastructure necessary to support these residential communities, such as roads, power, water and sewage, landscaping and open recreational spaces, is in place. With the support of the Company’s parent company, Emaar Properties, the Company has developed some of Dubai’s most prestigious integrated lifestyle masterplan communities, including Emirates Living, the first major freehold community built in Dubai, and Downtown Dubai, one of the world’s most visited destinations.”
