According to projections by the United Nations and other organizations, the world's population is estimated to reach more than 9 billion by 2050. About 6 billion people, two-thirds of these people, are expected to live in urban areas.This means that economic activities and livelihoods are concentrated in urban areas. Housing, healthcare, education and infrastructure are needed in proportion to population growth. Urban redevelopment is a very effective method of development. In Japan, the Urban Redevelopment Law was enacted in 1969. Urban plans for redevelopment were created to increase floor area ratios and relax height restrictions, to return development benefits from the reconstruction to the land rights holders and for the improvement of the urban environment. As a result, we were able to achieve a large number of redevelopment projects. The characteristics of redevelopment under the Urban Redevelopment Law of Japan are as follows. The process of rights conversion

1. It is implemented as a city plan. 2. Business is conducted by converting rights and retained floors. 3. Previous asset valuation is performed. 4. There are subsidies (public works). 5. Livelihood rehabilitation (compensation) is provided. 6. Business organizations such as redevelopment associations are formed. 7. Experts and coordinators play an important role. 8. Approximately 40 years of history, with nearly 1,000 districts completed.

Organize and manage redevelopment building management unions. Japan's redevelopment is carried out by valuating the rights of former rights holders and acquiring a right floor for the valuation in a new building. This is called the conversion of rights. Accordingly, former rights holders can continue without relocating their residence or business. It is possible to promote the development of cities Supply of housing while preserving the rights of former right holders. ・Development of Transport Bases ・To develop dense urban areas ・Supply of housing ・Base development

This enables subsidies and compensation. Urban planning procedures of the government are necessary for implementation as city planning. Japan's redevelopment begins with city planning. ① The government indicates the policy of redevelopment. ② Identify areas to be redeveloped and develop a redevelopment master plan. ③ Extract the redevelopment project areas and prepare a draft basic redevelopment plan. ④ The Draft Basic Plan for Redevelopment shall be formulated as a city plan. ⑤ Conduct procedures for consensus-building of rights holders, establishment of redevelopment organizations, private project participants, subsidies and compensation for the implementation of redevelopment. ① Formulation of government redevelopment policy

In the redevelopment project, the method of acquiring the floor (land and building) of a new building is generally adopted in accordance with the “Previous Asset Amount" of the owner of the land and building in accordance with the "Urban Redevelopment Act."This is called the "conversion of rights." Those who do not wish to use the floor of a new building can receive "monetary compensation" in accordance with the "amount of previous assets." The project expenses for the construction of new buildings are covered by the proceeds from the sale of the floor of the newly constructed buildings other than those subject to the conversion of rights to developers, etc. and by subsidies, etc. provided by the national and local governments. Major parties involved in urban redevelopment projects

Urban redevelopment projects consist of the cooperation of three parties: ① landowners (owners of land and buildings) ② those who acquire reserve floor space (developers, etc.) ③ the national and local governments

Determination and Liquidation of Value (Procedure for Determining the Value of Conversion of Rights) Major points where consensus building can be achieved through the conversion of rights 1. Effective use of land is possible. (By increasing the floor-area ratio based on city planning, we can convert from low-rise to high-rise use, and by developing roads we can make fragmented land into large-scale building sites.) 2. Flexible response based on individual circumstances of landowners (A floor for a variety of purposes may be acquired as a floor of right, and the whole or a part of the previous assets may be acquired in monetary form.) 3. It is possible to acquire the floor of the right at an equivalent rate by the conversion of rights. (In principle, you do not need your own funds, and the cost of the relocation will be reimbursed by the Operator.) 4. The executors support the surrender of existing tenants and the selection of temporary residences, temporary stores, and relocations during construction, etc. 5. Tax incentives are available (The additional depreciation deduction of fixed asset tax,the real estate acquisition tax,the registration ,license tax on the floor of the right shall be exempt. In the event of transfer, a special tax credit for income tax shall be obtained under certain conditions.) 6. There is a subsidy system for executing the system from the national and local governments. • In Japan, land and buildings are positioned as separate properties. Therefore, land and buildings are evaluated individually. • Typical assets subject to rights conversion in the redevelopment business are Building sites, Land lease rights, Leased fee interest in land, Buildings, and Tenant’s right. • The floor of the redevelopment building will be acquired by the same amount of value depending on the amount of these assets. • Under the Urban Redevelopment Law, the previous valuation criteria for assets are defined as "equivalent value determined by taking into consideration similar transaction prices in the neighborhood." • In valuating previous assets, the impartial valuation standards are established by the executors to prevent unfairness between the rights holders. In accordance with these rules, the real estate appraiser, who is an expert in real estate appraisal in Japan, needs to determine the value of the rights holder based on objective appraisal values by a third-party appraiser. ◆

• In general, standard parcel is set for each area similar to the situation within the implementation area. Each standard parcel is valuated in consideration of marketability and profitability, and the balance with Land Market Value Publication,etc. (publicly announced land price index). • Next, the property-specific ratio based on property-specific value influences (location, shape, size, connecting road, etc.) is valuated by comparison with the standard parcel, and the value of each building site is valuated.

Market Approach (Sales comparison Property-specific ratio approach) for each lot For each Beneficiary Property-specific value Certificate Holder Income Approach Standard influences, such as Previous land price (Income capitalization Location, shape, size, approach) price and connecting road, will be considered to assess Verification from the Land property-specific ratio Market Value Publication, for each lot. etc. ◆

• Since there is no transaction for only buildings, the building is valuated on a building-by-building basis in consideration of the current structure (wooden, RC, etc.), use (residence, retail, etc.), specifications, and scale. • In general, the appraisal value is valuated by deducting the estimated accrued depreciation depending on number of years and the condition of maintenance and management from the construction cost (reproduction cost) when a similar building is constructed at the time of the appraisal.

Reproduction cost Costs of Assess the cost required to Discount rate The value of construction construct a new building for each building individual Approach based on the structure, use, Assess the proportion of buildings (Cost Approach) specifications, and scale of present value by considering the building. the number of years elapsed for each building. ◆ Valuation of Land Lease Rights and Leased Fee interest in land • In general, the valuation of land lease rights and leased fee interest in land is valuated the land as vacant land for which no land lease rights have been established, and distributing the vacant land value based on the percentage of land lease rights agreed upon between the landlord and the tenant.

◆ Treatment of Tenant’s right • With respect to the tenant's right, at the option of the owner of the tenant's right, the tenant's right is "re-occupied in the redeveloped building" or "moved out of the business area, i.e. received compensation for the extinguishment of the tenant's right through monetary compensation.“ • In the case of "Re-occupancy to Re-development Building", in principle, the previous tenant’s right is not valuated. Post-asset valuation in the redevelopment business The method of post-asset valuation

• The owner of the site is entitled to the floor of the redevelopment building and the right of the land (post- asset) of the same value as the previous asset. • The value of the floor of the redevelopment building is determined by post- asset valuation. • In the post-asset valuation, experts such as business consultants and real estate appraisers valuate the cost floor value and market floor value of the redeveloped building. • The Urban Redevelopment Law stipulates that the value of assets shall be determined on the basis of reasonable prices determined in consideration of expenses required for Type 1 Urban District Redevelopment Projects and transaction prices similar to those of neighborhoods. • The floor cost of each individual unit is calculated by allocating the total floor cost in a value ratio corresponding to the use, floor, location, area, etc. of each individual unit. ◆

The cost floor value is determined by the sum of the cost of the redevelopment project expenses minus the subsidy income (business expenses to be recovered through the disposal of retained floors) and the previous asset value (the value of the right floor) subject to the right conversion. ◆ • Market floor value refers to the probable value that would be formed in a market that satisfies conditions associated with a rational market under actual socio-economic circumstances. • Market value is determined by applying the real estate appraisal method.

Market Approach (Sales comparison Approach) Allocation ratio for each exclusively Income Approach The value of owned space For each exclusively (Income capitalization Standard floor Assess the percentage of owned space approach) each exclusively owned Post-floor value space according to use, floor, location, exclusively Cost Approach floor area, etc.

◆Determination of the Cost Floor Value • The value of floor of right is determined between the cost floor value and the market floor value. • The value of the reserve floor space shall be determined in accordance with the approach to the market floor value. • Redevelopment projects are regarded as public works projects, and the national and local governments are allowed to subsidize part of the project cost to the project executors.

• Not all redevelopment projects are eligible to receive subsidies, but the appropriateness and amount of subsidies are decided after consultation with local governments (mainly municipalities) for each project. ◆ Type of Subsidies ・In redevelopment projects, the main subsidies to be received by the project executors are called "Comprehensive Grants for Social Infrastructure Development." There are three types of subsidies (* as of 2017).

Type Outline Subsidies are provided for urban redevelopment projects under the Urban Redevelopment Law. The main project costs are as follows:

[Research and design planning expenses] Design expenses required for joint development, right conversion plan preparation expenses, etc. Urban [Land development expenses] Redevelopment Cost of disposing of existing buildings for vacant land Compensation Projects cost, etc. required for surrender [Cost of joint facility development] Expenses spent for the construction of facilities and common elements of buildings. For example common traffic areas, vacant land, supply processing facilities, parking lots, disaster prevention facilities, etc. ・In the redevelopment project, the government will compensate the right holders who replace the current value of the property in the area with the value of the new redevelopment building (e.g., convert rights) or the right holders who move out of the area without wishing to convert rights for losses arising from the surrender of the land and building.

・The amount of compensation paid to each right holder shall be calculated objectively and paid to the right holder based on the fixed rules of compensation standards established by the association in accordance with compensation for losses in public works projects. ◆Types of Compensation In the redevelopment project, compensation paid by the project executor is divided into the following two types.

1.Compensation for Land and Building of the Person who is transferred not requiring a transformation of rights 【Rationale】Article 91 of the Urban Redevelopment Law 【Subject Person】Owner of the land and buildings who wished to move out of the area 【Amount】 Appraised value of land and buildings (purchased by the project executor) 【Timing of payment】 Payment is made by the right conversion date.

2. Compensation for Loss caused by surrender of Land and Buildings 【Rationale】 Article 97 of the Urban Redevelopment Law 【Subject Person】 Owner of the Land and Buildings, Tenant Right Holder, etc. 【Amount】 Amount calculated by Compensation consultant, who is an expert in calculating compensation expenses in Japan, with conducting surveys of the current status of buildings and business operations. 【Timing of payment】 Payment shall be made by the date of surrender of the Land and Buildings, etc. (Date specified by the project executor on the day thirty days or more after the Date of Conversion of Rights) There are five organizations that implement redevelopment. Operators Requirements of the operator

If five or more owners or leasehold owners of land in the project execution area jointly 1:Urban fulfill certain conditions (area of 5,000 m2 or more), the association may be established Redevelopment and become an executor of the redevelopment project. Associations Owners and landowners in the district are all members even if they disagree with the business. Owners or leasehold owners of land in the project execution area or persons who have obtained such consent may jointly become executors with one or more persons. In the case of individual implementation, it is not necessarily necessary for all right holders 2:Individual in the implementation area to be the project executors (up to five persons may be allowed), and it can be implemented without the decision on the city plan for the redevelopment project. For the main purpose of implementing urban area resumption projects, owners of two- 3:Redevelopment thirds or more of the land in the implementation area and landowners lease right may company become the project executors if the stock company has a majority of the voting rights. Local governments can execute urban redevelopment projects mainly for the purpose of 4 :Local governments developing public facilities such as squares in front of stations, streets, disaster prevention parks, etc. The Urban Renaissance Agency may implement urban redevelopment projects when it is necessary to develop and improve areas that should promote redevelopment or to 5:UrbanRenaissance implement them in conjunction with the construction of rental housing, when it is Agency, etc. necessary to implement them in conjunction with the construction of housing operated by the Public Corporation. What are Urban Renewal planners? ‘Urban Renewal planner' is the title of a professional engineer who has passed the Urban renewal planner examination. conducted by the Urban renewal coordinator association and has been registered. Consultation services are provided for planning and advancing redevelopment projects. Need for Urban Renewal planners The promotion of redevelopment requires the participation of a wide variety of experts, including right holders, government offices, developers, architects, lawyers, tax accountants, commercial consultants, real estate appraisers, land and house surveyors, and construction companies. From the viewpoint of property protection and livelihood reconstruction for landowners, the 'regional development leaders‘ who are responsible for promoting the project are playing as important role in the promotion of redevelopment projects as Urban Renewal planners. They are responsible for ensuring consistency with various legal systems, choosing the most appropriate business methods, and coordinating with various experts. 9. Urban Renewal Projects in Japan
