In addition, "Area" of "Land," "Completion Date," "Structure / Number of Floors," "Gross Floor Area" and "Use" of building are based on information in the real estate registry and may not necessarily be identical with the actual figures. "Gross Floor Area" of building denotes the area of the entire building (excepting annexes).
However, since "COMFORIA KITAZAWA" is an uncompleted property and is yet to be registered, "Location" indicates lot number of the land, and "Completion date" indicates planned completion period, while "Structure / Number of Floors", "Gross Floor Area", and "Use" of building indicate the figures, etc. based on the building permit.
(Note 2) "Property Management Company" is the company that has provided or is scheduled to provide property management service for each property.
(Note 3) "Master Leasing Company" is the lessee that has conducted or is scheduled to conclude a master lease agreement with the titleholder of each property.
(Note 4) "Special affairs" are matters recognized as important, regarding the right and use, etc. of the asset, as well as consideration of the degree of impact on the appraised value, profitability, and appropriation. They include the following matters:
- Significant limitation or restriction by laws, regulations and rules
- Significant burdens or limitations on rights, etc.
- Significant cases where there are architectural structures crossing the boundaries of the concerned property, etc. and cases where there are issues with boundary confirmation, etc., and related arrangements, etc.
- Significant agreements, arrangements, etc. concluded with co-owners / sectional owners.
(Note 5) Explanation of "Summary of Rental Status"
- "Rentable Area" is the total rentable floor area of residences and retail stores, etc. of the asset (if the common area, etc. is leased, the concerned area is also included)."Rentable Area" for Non-Pass-through type master lease agreements (master lease agreements (defined in ii below) other than Pass-through type master lease agreements (defined in ii below)) is the rentable area based on the lease agreement concluded between CRR or Trustee of Beneficial Trust and the Master Leasing Company. The Rentable Area is not based on the real estate registry, but the floor area stated in the lease agreement or the floor area calculated from the building as-built drawing, etc., and may not necessarily be identical to the floor area written in the real estate registry.
- In the following cases, "Rented Area" means the floor area (based on the floor area in the lease agreement; however, limited to the floor area of residences and retail stores, etc. (when all units are leased in bulk, the floor area of the entire leased units) and excluding the leased area of parking lots) that is actually leased and a lease agreement is executed with the end-tenant. Cases where all or some units are leased in bulk, based on the lease agreement ("Master Lease Agreement"), and the Master Leasing Company in Master Lease Agreement subleases end-tenants, besides there is an agreement under which the rent of Master Lease Agreement is in accordance with the rent, etc. that end-tenants paid (hereafter this type of Master Lease Agreement is referred to as "Pass-through type Master Lease Agreement").

- "Total Number of Tenants" is the number of tenants with which CRR or Trustee of Beneficial Trust has a direct rental contract relationship (including a direct rental contract relationship to be concluded). Therefore, when CRR or Trustee of Beneficial Trust leases comprehensively to the Master Leasing Company all units of the acquired property, and the Master Leasing Company subleases each unit to end-tenants, the Total Number of Tenants is 1; that is, the end-tenants of the sublease agreements are excluded. With regard to the properties to be acquired, a master lease agreement is scheduled to be concluded with Tokyu Housing Lease Corporation as the master leasing company on the acquisition date of the properties. The "total number of tenants" above is therefore the number of tenants after such a master lease agreement is concluded.

In addition, in the case that the Master Leasing type is a Non-Pass-Through type Master Lease Agreement, the Security Deposit, guarantees based on the lease agreement between CRR or the Trustee of Beneficial Trust and the Master Leasing Company are stated.
(Note 6) Since "COMFORIA KITAZAWA" is an uncompleted property, "Rentable Area" and "Rentable Units" indicate figures based on information provided by the seller, and "Rented Area", "Occupancy Rate", "Rented Units", "Total Monthly Rent", and "Security Deposit" are not stated.

However, the content of the report is simply the opinion of the reporting company above, and CRR does not guarantee the adequacy and accuracy of the content.

In this document, PML is calculated based on PML3, the definition of PML, an index of earthquake risk assessment by the Architectural Institute of Japan, and are expressed as a percentage (%) of the replacement price of the amount of loss with a 10% probability of exceedance (amount of loss equivalent to a 475-year return period) during the assumed expected period of use (50 years = the useful life of a typical building).
(Note 9) In "Architect/Contractor/Building Permit Agency, etc.," the architect, the contractor, the building permit agency and the investment agency or structural calculation fitness judge, etc. of the asset to be acquired is stated. As a general rule, CRR has asked a specialized third-party organization to make an inspection and received a report stating that there is no wrongful act such as the intentional falsification and forgery of documents related to structural design (structural drawings and structural calculation sheets, etc.). However, the content of the report is simply an opinion of the third-party organization, and CRR does not guarantee the adequacy and accuracy of the content. For properties that have received from the specified structural calculation fitness judgment agency the judgment that the structural calculation is appropriately conducted according to the methods prescribed by the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in accordance with the Building Standards Act revised in June 2007 (Act No. 201 of 1950.
