  • "OPD" stands for "Optimal Payable Distribution" that means distributions in excess of retained earnings.

(Note 1) For the periods ended August 31, 2021 and February 28, 2021, payout ratio was calculated as follows since new investment units were issued during the period:

Payout ratio = Total distributions (excluding OPD) / Net income x 100 Payout ratio is rounded down to the first decimal place.

(Note 2) Payout ratio and distributions to net assets ratio were calculated on the basis of excluding OPD.

(Note 3) All of the amounts of OPD for the periods ended August 31, 2021 and February 28, 2021 are the refund of investment categorized as a distribution from in unitholders' capital for tax purposes. The OPD for the periods ended August 31, 2021 and February 28, 2021 includes a temporary OPD of 145 yen and 199 yen per unit, respectively.

[Overview of the Current Fiscal Period]

  1. Brief Background of GLP J-REIT
    GLP J-REIT is a real estate investment corporation ("J-REIT") specializing in logistics facilities, and it primarily invests in modern logistics facilities. GLP J-REIT was founded in accordance with the Act on Investment Trusts and Investment Corporations (hereinafter the "Investment Trust Act") with GLP Japan Advisors Inc. as the founder. It had its units listed on the Real Estate Investment Trust Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange on December 21, 2012 (securities code: 3281).
    Having the GLP Group (Note) as the sponsor group and investing in highly functional modern logistics facilities while taking advantage of the wealth of experience and management resources, GLP J-REIT aims to earn stable income and achieve steady growth in assets under management over the medium and long term. Since starting its operation as a listed J-REIT with 30 properties (total acquisition price of 208,731 million yen) in January 2013, GLP J-REIT has been steadily expanding its assets through the continuous acquisition of properties. As of the end of the current fiscal period, GLP J-REIT owns 86

properties (total acquisition price of 788,031 million yen).

(Note) The GLP Group consists of GLP Holdings Limited, the holding company of the Sponsor of GLP J-REIT, and its group companies.

(ii) Investment Environment and Business Performance

During the current fiscal period, the Japanese economy is expected to show positive growth due to factors such as the recovery of corporate capital spending, despite the continued sluggishness of consumer spending caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As for the future outlook, although uncertainty remains due to concerns about the spread of variants, there are expectations that the economy will pick up with the progress of vaccinations and other factors.

In the logistics facilities leasing market, we believe demand remains strong, reflecting logistics industry business concerns such as labor shortage and supply chain optimization, in addition to a trend of new expansion, consolidation and integration of logistics facilities among e-commerce service and third-party logistics (3PL) companies. Under these circumstances, the balance of supply and demand for modern logistics facilities remains stable, as shown by the pre-leased ratio (Note 2) for large multi-tenant logistics facilities planned to be newly supplied in 2021, which is approximately 70% in the Tokyo metropolitan area and 90% in the Greater Osaka area as of the end of June 2021.

In the logistics real estate market, reflecting continuing monetary easing, steady demand for properties and the prospect of stable rental income, institutional investors such as pension funds and insurance companies remain eager to invest in the market, and their funds continue to flow in. As a result, capitalization rates continue to trend low while real estate prices stay high.

Under these circumstances, taking advantage of the strong demand for logistics properties, GLP J-REIT sold its trust beneficiary right of GLP Okegawa on May 31, 2021, in order to return the gain on sale to
