The construction wastes used for reclamation of land remain under the ground of this site. The Fund decided the acquisition price taking into account the estimated cost (14 million yen) of extracting and removing a part of these wastes at the time of future reconstruction. 2. The Fund believes neither Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act nor the Ordinance on the Environment for the Preservation of the Health and Safety of Tokyo Residents (effective since December 22, 2000) will apply to this site. After investigation, however, the Fund found that a part of this site contains certain amount of hazardous materials exceeding standard level. The Fund confirmed Shimizu Corporation, the investigator, that the hazardous materials give quite limited impact on environment and that there is no problem in using this site as it is. Of course the Fund realizes that the hazardous materials must be removed in accordance with related regulations in future reconstruction opportunity. Still, the Fund believes the amount of the hazardous materials is relatively small that enables the Fund to remove the materials without special treatment and cost. Notes: 1. This property has not yet placed in trust beneficiary right as of today. The seller will entrust the property before the Fund’s acquisition. 2. According to the indication of the real estate registry. 3. Not disclosed, for unable to obtain the tenants’ consent. 4.

The figures are not the forecasts for the fiscal period ending January 31, 2013 or the fiscal period ending July 31, 2013, but the normalized estimation based on annual income/expense projection. 3.
