(Payment Method)

(Lump-sum payment on delivery)

(Note 1) "Acquisition Price" refers to the purchase price written in the beneficiary transfer agreements for the asset-to-be-acquired and does not include various expenses needed for the acquisition such as taxes and public dues.

(Note 2) "Appraisal Value" of the asset-to-be-acquired is as of December 1, 2023.

(Note 3) "NOI Yield" is calculated as follows: annualized NOI written in the appraisal document at the time of the acquisition of the asset-to-be acquired and calculated using direct capitalization method / acquisition price x 100. The calculated yield is rounded at the second decimal point.

(Note 4) "Yield after Deprecation" is calculated as follows: (annualized NOI written in the appraisal document at the time of the acquisition of the asset-to-be-acquired and calculated using direct capitalization method - annual depreciation cost) / acquisition price x 100. The calculated yield is rounded at the second decimal point. As in the case with the existing portfolio of ADR, the depreciation cost of the assets-to-be-acquired is calculated by ADR, using the straight-line method

under certain assumptions and estimated at 15,784 thousand yen a year.

(Note 5) "Building Age" is the age of the building as of the date of this document and is rounded at the second decimal point.

2. Reason for the Acquisition

IRM decided on the following acquisition pursuant to the target and policy of asset management as stipulated in the Articles of Incorporation of ADR, for steady increase in asset size and diversification and enhancement of the portfolio. The decision to acquire this property was based on an evaluation of Features of the Property, etc., as stated in "3. Summary of the Asset-To-Be-Acquired".

In the real estate trading market, the supply of new, high-quality rental housing in good locations is limited, and the trading prices of properties in central metropolitan areas, where stable rental demand can be expected, continue to remain high, creating a difficult acquisition environment.

In this environment, ADR has decided to acquire the property developed by IRM's sponsors, ITOCHU Corporation and ITOCHU Property Development, Ltd. The Building Age of the Asset-To-Be-Acquired is 6.1 years, which is much lower than the average Building Age of the entire portfolio of 17.0 years (Note6) as of the fiscal period ended January 31, 2024.

(Note 6) The Average Building Age for the entire portfolio is the weighted average Building Age of the properties in the portfolio, weighted by Acquisition Price and rounded to the second decimal place.
