W W W . K B S . C O M The information contained herein should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified by, the information in KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III’s (the “Company” or “KBS REIT III”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”), and in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022 (the “Quarterly Report”), including the “Risk Factors” contained therein. For a full description of the limitations, methodologies and assumptions used to value the Company’s assets and liabilities in connection with the calculation of the Company’s estimated value per share, see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, dated November 1, 2021 (the “Valuation 8-K”). Important Disclosures Certain statements contained herein may be deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and members of its management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law. Such statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. The Company makes no representation or warranty (express or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. These statements are based on a number of assumptions involving the judgment of management. You should interpret many of the risks identified in this presentation and in the Company’s Annual Report and Quarterly Reports as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic, together with the resulting measures imposed to help control the spread of the virus, has had a negative impact on the economy and business activity globally. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s operations and those of its tenants and the Company’s investment in Prime US REIT depends on future developments, which remain uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including among other developments, potential changes in customer behavior, such as the continued social acceptance, desirability and perceived economic benefits of work-from-home arrangements, resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, which could materially and negatively impact the future demand for office space, resulting in slower overall leasing and an adverse impact to the Company’s operations. Forward-Looking Statements 2

W W W . K B S . C O M Important Disclosures (cont.) The Company may fund distributions from any source including, without limitation, from offering proceeds or borrowings. Distributions paid through March 31, 2022 have been funded with cash flow from operating activities, debt financing and proceeds from asset sales. There are no guarantees that the Company will continue to pay distributions or that distributions at the current rate are sustainable. No assurances can be given with respect to distributions. Actual events may cause the value and returns on the Company’s investments to be less than that used for purposes of the Company’s estimated NAV per share. With respect to the estimated NAV per share, the appraisal methodology used for the appraised properties assumed the properties realize the projected net operating income and expected exit cap rates and that investors would be willing to invest in such properties at yields equal to the expected discount rates. The valuation for the Company’s investment in units of Prime US REIT used in the estimated NAV per share assumed a discount for the holding period risk due to the quantity of units held by the Company relative to the normal level of trading volume in units. Though the appraisals of the appraised properties and the valuation of the Company’s investment in units of Prime US REIT, with respect to Duff & Phelps, and the valuation estimates used in calculating the estimated value per share, with respect to Duff & Phelps, the Company’s advisor and the Company, were the respective party’s best estimates as of September 30, 2021, October 22, 2021 or November 1, 2021, as applicable, the Company can give no assurance in this regard. Even small changes to these assumptions could result in significant differences in the appraised values of the appraised properties, the valuation of the Company’s investment in units of Prime US REIT and the estimated value per share. The estimated value per share does not take into account developments in our portfolio or the markets since November 1, 2021, including the uncertainty as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, changes in global and national economic and market conditions and the local economic conditions where our properties are located, increasing interest rates and inflation, all of which may negatively impact the value of the Company’s investments. Further, the Company can make no assurances with respect to the future value appreciation of its properties and ultimate returns to investors. Stockholders may have to hold their shares for an indefinite period of time. The Company can give no assurance that it will be able to provide additional liquidity to stockholders. The Company’s conflicts committee and board of directors continue to evaluate various alternatives available to the Company, including whether or not to convert to an “NAV REIT.” The Company can provide no assurances as to whether or when any alternative being considered by the Company’s board of directors will be consummated. The statements herein also depend on factors such as: future economic, competitive and market conditions; the Company’s ability to maintain and/or improve occupancy levels and rental rates at its properties; and other risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2021 and in Part II, Item 1A of the Company’s Quarterly Report for the period ended March 31, 2022.
