  2. Reason for the Acquisition

    The decision on the Acquisition was made to further enhance the Investment Corporation's investment portfolio, while comprehensively considering the Investment Corporation's portfolio development policy, real estate market trends, the characteristics of the Property and other factors.

    In the decision to acquire the Property, which is mid-sized office building that the Investment Corporation has focused on as main investment target, the following characteristics of the Property were evaluated.

    1. Area

      The Shibuya area is recognized as one of Tokyo's best known commercial districts with a high concentration of IT-related companies. Due to several redevelopment projects planned in the area, the area is expected to continuously develop in the future.

      The Property is located in Nanpeidaicho, Shibuya-ku with approximately 12 minutes on foot from Shibuya Station on 9 lines including JR Yamanote Line, Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, Tokyu Den-en-toshi Line and other lines, and approximately 8 minutes from Shinsen Station on Keio Inokashira Line. The Nanpeidaicho area in which the Property is located has grown as high-end residential area and maintains quiet and high-class landscape despite within walking distance from Shibuya Station, and is in demand from apparel and IT-related companies that prefer such environment.

    2. Building

    3. The Property has leasable floor areas of about 623 m2 (about 188 tsubos) on the standard floors with ceiling height of 2.7 m, and is equipped with individual air conditioners, OA floors (100 mm), automated security system and plane parking spaces (7 spaces).

      The Property is relatively small as the total floor area of the entire building is about 2,832 m2 (about 856 tsubo).

      Accordingly, in addition to the demand for each leasing floor, the Property can also meet the needs of the tenant using the entire building.

      Through the Acquisition, the portfolio of the Investment Corporation will expand to 99 properties (total: 398.7 billion yen). The investment ratio of office buildings in the portfolio will be 92.3%, and the investment ratio of the Tokyo Metropolitan Area (Note) in the portfolio will be 80.6% (The figures are based on acquisition price.).

      Note: Tokyo Metropolitan Area refers to major cities in Tokyo Metropolitan, Kanagawa, Saitama, and Chiba Prefectures.
