To Our Unitholders
In the fiscal period ended September 30, 2023, the Japan Real Estate Corporation (JRE) increased dividends per unit
(DPU) by JPY 333, to JPY 12,000, marking the 19th consecutive period of DPU growth. In terms of internal growth,
despite the large supply of new office buildings, leasing demand, such as that for larger office space as a result of businessexpansion and for relocating to more favorable locations, continues to increase. Capturing such encouraging demandenabled us to make progress on backfilling large-scale vacancies created by the withdrawal of major tenants. We will
­maintain strategic leasing activities while continuing to carefully monitor the balance between supply and demand.

Operating Environment
The Japanese economy is expected to recover on the back of a likely
improvement in domestic demand as activities in society and the economy continue to normalize. On the other hand, the Company willkeep a closer eye on developments in monetary policy and interest rates,
especially after the Bank of Japan adopted greater flexibility in its yield
curve control policy in July, while the impact of fluctuations in financial and capital markets, in Japan and overseas, will bear watching.

Our Thoughts
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic completelychanged the way we live.

The pandemic has prompted us to evolve into

a “non-contact” society where contact is avoided
to prevent infection from airborne droplets.

This transformation has resulted in a steep increasein the use of delivery and take-out services,which in turn has led to more plastic bottle andlunch box waste in homes and offices. Consequently,
the pandemic has had a significant impact
on the problem of waste.

What can we do to help create a sustainable society?

This Sustainability Guide mainly focuses on steps that,
as office workers, all of us can take to enhanceenvironmental and employee friendliness.
In partnership with our tenants,

we will co-create a sustainable society.

GovernanceOur basic policy as an investment corporation and asset management company is not only to comply with laws and regulations, but to meet social
demands as well. Taking care to have each employee perform his or her duties with high ethical standards and strict self-discipline raises our reputation
among investors and garners the trust of the greater society.
Basic Principle of Compliance for theInvestment Corporation (JRE)

Basic Principle of Compliance for the Asset Management Company (JRE-AM)

JRE’s basic principle of compliance is to thoroughly observe legal and other relevant norms inregard to the business operation as well as torespond to the requirements from society. Thismeans that the investment corporation administers
and oversees the outsourcing companies from thesame standpoint, while complying with legal andother relevant norms in its decision-making.

1 Ensuring thorough compliance is one of its top priority issues, since JRE-AM understands that any

Basic Principle
insufficiency in compliance would affect even its management base.
2 As an asset management company, JRE-AM recognizes that it bears the responsibility for realizing thevalues that are required by society in its business operation, and makes proactive and continuous efforts
for full compliance to enhance the value of its business operation both qualitatively and quantitatively.
3 JRE-AM is determined to achieve a reputation for quality among its investors by promoting complianceactivities, and thereby gains the trust of a wide spectrum of society.

In September 2001, the Company became the first J-REIT in Japan listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Since then,the Company has targeted stable management to fulfill its goal of maintaining or increasing dividend per unit overthe medium- to long-term. The Company’s growth is based on external growth strategies that aim to increase earnings
through the acquisition and transfer of properties, as well as internal growth strategies that seek to optimize earnings
from properties already held. The size of the Company’s assets (total acquisition price) has grown from JPY 92.8 billion
at IPO to JPY 1.13 trillion as of the period ended September 30, 2023 due to the steady achievement of external growthstrategies. However, in terms of internal growth strategies, ongoing efforts are being made in such areas as
maintaining stable occupancy rates and reducing building management costs.

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization

Japan Real Estate Investment Corporation (the “Company”) is a real estate investment corporation formed to own and invest primarily ina portfolio of office properties. The Company is externally managed by a licensed asset management company, Japan Real Estate AssetManagement Co., Ltd. (“JRE-AM”). JRE-AM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. (“MEC”).
On May 11, 2001, the Company was incorporated with ¥200 million of original capital contribution by MEC, Tokio Marine & Nichido Fire Insurance Co., Ltd. and The Dai-ichi Life Insurance Company, Limited under the ITA.
On September 10, 2001, the Company commenced operations when the Company was listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange as one of
the first real estate investment corporations in Japan (“J-REITs”). The Company issued 160,000 units at a price of ¥506,625 per unit,
generating gross proceeds of ¥81,060 million.
The Company completed the 13th public offering of 35,200 units at a price of ¥517,750 per unit on April 7, 2023 and third-party allocation of 2,454 units at a price of ¥517,750 per unit on May 1, 2023, generating gross proceeds of ¥18,224 million and ¥1,270 million,
respectively. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had unitholders’ capital of ¥516,736 million with 1,422,864 units outstanding.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned a portfolio of 77 office properties with an aggregate of approximately 888,354 m2 ofleasable space.
Basis of presenting financial statements

The Company maintains its accounting records and prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”), including provisions set forth in the ITA, the Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Law
and related regulations, which are different in certain respects as to the application and disclosure requirements of International Financial
Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
The accompanying financial statements are a translation of the audited financial statements of the Company, which were prepared inaccordance with Japanese GAAP and were presented in the Securities Report of the Company filed with the Kanto Local Finance Bureau.
In preparing the accompanying financial statements, certain reclassifications and modifications have been made to the financial statements
issued domestically in order to present them in a format that is more familiar to readers outside Japan. In addition, the notes to financial
statements include information that might not be required under Japanese GAAP but is presented herein as additional information.
As permitted under the Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Law, amounts of less than one million yen have been omitted.
As a result, the totals shown in the accompanying financial statements do not necessarily agree with the sum of the individual amounts.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Investment securities

Non-marketable securities, which have no market prices, classified as other securities are carried at cost. Cost of securities sold is determinedby the moving average method.
Property and equipment, depreciation and impairment (except for leased assets)

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The cost of land, buildings and building improvements includes
the purchase price of property and acquisition costs. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of theassets ranging as stated below:
Buildings ................................................................................................................................... 2 – 61 years
Structures ................................................................................................................................. 2 – 75 years
Machinery and equipment ................................................................................ 2 – 18 years
Tools, furniture and fixtures ............................................................................. 2 – 29 years

29Japan Real Estate Investment Corporation

Expenditures for repairing expenses are charged to income as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
The Company reviews fixed assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of its
fixed assets may not be recoverable. According to the standard set by the Accounting Standards Board of Japan (“ASBJ”), companies are
required to recognize an impairment loss in their statements of income if certain indicators of asset impairment exist and the book valueof an asset exceeds the undiscounted sum of future cash flows of the asset. The standard states that impairment losses should be measured
as the excess of the book value over the higher of (i) the fair market value of the asset, net of disposition costs, and (ii) the present valueof future cash flows arising from ongoing utilization of the asset and from disposal after asset use. The standard covers land, factories,
buildings and other forms of property, plant and equipment as well as intangible assets. Fixed assets are grouped at the lowest level forwhich there is identifiable cash flows that are independent of cash flows of other groups of assets.
Intangible assets

Intangible assets primarily consist of leasehold rights and easement, which are stated at cost. Amortization of a term leasehold interest forbusiness use is calculated by the straight-line method based on the period of agreement.
Leased assets

Leased assets under finance lease transactions that do not transfer ownership of the leased assets to the lessees are capitalized and depreciated by the straight-line method over the lease term with no residual value.
Deferred charges

Investment corporation bond issuance costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the redemption periods.
Investment unit issuance expenses are charged to income as incurred. The underwriters’ economic remunerations for underwriting theoffering are not recognized as investment unit issuance expenses in the financial statements since such costs are not paid by the Company
as commission under the so-called “spread-method.”
Under the spread-method, the difference between the offer price (the price paid by the unitholder) and the issue price (the price received
by the Company) is retained by the underwriters as remuneration.
Revenue recognition

The content of main performance obligations related to revenue arising from contracts with customers of the Company and the normal
timing for satisfying such performance obligations (the normal timing for recognizing revenue) are as follows:(i) Sales of real estate properties
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of real estate properties when the purchaser, as the customer, obtains control of the realestate property by fulfilling the delivery obligations stipulated in the contract for the sale of real estate property.
(ii) Utilities income
The Company recognizes utilities income based on the supply of electricity, water, etc. to the lessee as the customer, in accordance with theterms of the real estate lease contract and related agreements. Of utilities income, in the case that the Company determines it is an agent
for utilities income, the utilities income is recognized as income at the net amount received as charges for electricity, gas, etc. supplied byother parties, less the amount paid to such other parties.
Taxes on property and equipment

Property and equipment is subject to property taxes and city planning taxes on a calendar year basis. These taxes are generally charged toincome during the period. The sellers of the properties are liable for property taxes for the calendar year including the period from the dateof purchase by the Company through the end of the year since the taxes are imposed on the owner registered on the record as of January 1
based on the assessment made by the local government. The Company pays the amount equivalent to the property taxes to the sellers
applicable to the period since acquisition and includes the amount equivalent to the taxes in the purchase price of each property and­capitalizes it as a cost of the property.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, deposits with banks, and short-term investments, which are highly liquid, readily
convertible to cash and with insignificant risk of price fluctuation, with original maturity of three months or less.
Hedge accounting

The Company enters into derivative transactions to hedge against interest-rate risk and other forms of risk based on the risk management
policies outlined in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. The Company uses interest-rate swap transactions for hedging fluctuationsin interest rates on floating-rate loans. The Company has also executed currency swap transactions as a method of hedging against currency
exchange fluctuation risks. Deferred hedge accounting is generally used for such interest-rate swaps and currency swap transactions, andthe effectiveness of hedging is measured by comparing the total cash flow fluctuation of the hedged item and that of the hedging instrument since the inception of the hedge.
For interest-rate swaps and currency swaps that qualify for hedge accounting and meet certain criteria provided under Japanese GAAP,
however, the Company applies special accounting treatment. Under such special accounting treatment, the differentials paid or received
under the swap agreements are recognized and included in interest expense of the hedged loans, and the interest-rate swaps and currency
swaps are not required to be separately valued. For interest-rate swaps and currency swaps that meet the specific criteria for such special
accounting treatment, ongoing assessments of hedge effectiveness are not required and hence not performed.

5. Financial Instruments
1. Status of financial instruments(1) Policies for dealing with financial instruments
		Concerning the financing of property acquisitions, the Company shall use several funding sources including bank loans, the issuance ofinvestment corporation bonds and the issuance of investment units. When executing such financing activities, the Company endeavors
to retain the ability to secure stable and low-cost financing by maintaining high credit ratings and thereby limiting the financial covenants that may restrict the financial flexibility of the Company. To achieve these goals, the Company intends to further develop andreinforce the confidence of debt holders and rating agencies in the Company by bolstering the capital base and controlling the loan-tovalue ratio (“LTV”) at an adequate level.
		  In order to hedge against future interest-rate fluctuations, the Company may enter into derivative transactions, which shall be
executed solely for the purpose of hedging against interest-rate fluctuation and other risks, and not for speculative purposes.
		  With respect to management of excess funds, as a matter of policy the Company uses time deposits as its main vehicle, while securities
and monetary claims are also eligible for such investment.
(2) Characteristics and risk profile of each financial instrument and risk management system		The Company regularly re-evaluates the appropriateness and effectiveness of its risk management system in order to improve on it.
		 The characteristics and risk profile of financial instruments and the system in place to manage such risks are as follows:		  The deposits, which are typically large time deposits used to manage excess funds, are exposed to the credit risk of the deposit-taking
financial institutions. The Company manages credit risk by restricting the tenor of the deposit to relatively short periods and setting aminimum credit rating requirement for the deposit-taking financial institutions.
		  The funding proceeds from borrowings and issues of investment corporation bonds are applied mainly to acquire real estate properties and repay outstanding loans and bonds. While floating-rate short-term and long-term loans are exposed to the risk of interest-rate
hikes, such risk is mitigated by the Company’s low LTV and relatively high percentage of long-term fixed-rate debts within the totalborrowing. The Company may also exercise hedging by means of derivative transactions (interest-rate swap transactions) in order tomitigate the risk of fluctuation concerning the floating-rate long-term loans, thereby effectively stabilizing the overall interest rates on
the loans. Foreign currency-denominated loans are also exposed to currency exchange and interest-rate fluctuation risk. However, theCompany uses derivative transactions as a method of hedging against these risks (interest-rate and currency swap transactions). Foreign
currency investment corporation bonds are also exposed to currency exchange risk. However, the Company uses derivative transactions
as a method of hedging against the risks (currency swap transactions). For more detailed information on the hedge accounting method,
please refer to Section 2. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Hedge accounting.”		  Loans and investment corporation bonds involve liquidity risk at the time of maturity. To manage such liquidity risk, the Company
implements measures such as (i) maintaining and strengthening its ability to access equity markets to secure funds, (ii) maintaining
commitment lines with major financial institutions (There is no amount outstanding under the facility as of March 31, 2023 andSeptember 30, 2023) and (iii) preparing monthly financial plans.
(3) Supplementary note regarding fair value of financial instruments
		Since the fair value of financial instruments is calculated based on certain assumptions, the fair value could differ depending on theassumptions used. In addition, the contract value of derivative transactions, which is presented in Section 6. “Derivative Transactions,”
is not an exact representation of market risk attributable to derivative transactions.

(6) Derivative transactions

Notes: 1. Measurement of fair value of financial instruments and matters concerning derivative transactions
			 (1) Current portion of investment corporation bonds and (3) Investment corporation bonds					Their fair values are based on reference prices published by a financial data provider where available. When reference prices are not available, their fair values arecalculated by discounting the aggregate of the principal and interest by nominal rates assumed applicable if the loans were refinanced for the duration of the current maturity. (However, the fair values of investment corporation bonds (please refer to Section 6. “Derivative Transactions, (2) Derivatives designated as hedging
instruments”) hedged by a currency swap subject to allocation treatment are calculated by discounting the aggregate of the principal and interest integrated withthe currency swap by nominal rates assumed applicable if the loans were refinanced for the duration of the current maturity.)			 (2) Current portion of long-term borrowings and (4) Long-term borrowings					For loans with floating interest rates, since the interest rates on such loans reflect market rates reasonably well over the short term and their book values are good
approximations of their fair values, the book values are presented as their fair values. (However, the fair values of floating-rate long-term loans (please refer to
Section 6. “Derivative Transactions, (2) Derivatives designated as hedging instruments”) hedged by an interest-rate and currency swap subject to integrated treatment
or by an interest-rate swap subject to special accounting treatment are calculated by discounting the aggregated principal and interest on such loans using reasonableestimates of the rates that would be applicable if the Company were to refinance the existing loans for the remaining period to maturity under the prevailing market
condition.) The fair values of long-term loans with fixed interest rates are calculated by discounting the aggregated amounts of the principal and the interest of theloans by the rates that are reasonably estimated to be applicable if the Company were to refinance the existing loans for the remaining period to maturity.
			 (5) Deposits received from tenants					These fair values of these deposits are the discounted present values by estimated periods until the deposits are returned and discount rates reflected credit risksof the Company.
			 (6) Derivative transactions						 Please refer to Section 6. “Derivative Transactions.”

To what extent were the environmental and/or social characteristics promoted by this financial product met?
We are committed to pursuing social sustainability, making socially responsible investments, and maximizing unitholder value by
being mindful of the environment, contributing to society, and enhancing governance. We view environmental, social, and governance(“ESG”)-related initiatives as essential for a business to be both sustainable and stable, and are committed to implementing these initiatives
in cooperation with our stakeholders. More specifically, we are committed to improving the environmental performance of our real estate
portfolio while generating greater returns on our office investments, achieving sustainable development alongside all of our stakeholders,
including unitholders, tenants, employees, suppliers and local communities, to contribute to sustainable society, and maximizing unitholder value. Our basic policy is to strictly observe legal requirements and relevant social norms, and under this basic policy, we haveestablished a Sustainability Policy to implement the initiatives described below.
•E nvironmental Initiative. Based on the Sustainability Policy items “1. Climate change initiative (promoting decarbonizationand strengthening resilience)” and “2. Contribution to resource conservation including water and resource recycling”, JRE has
set reduction targets for energy consumption and greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions in order to improve the environmental
performance of its real estate portfolio. In order to achieve these targets, the Asset Manager implements measures to improve theoperational performance of buildings, conducts energy efficiency retrofits, and engages tenant on energy efficiency based on its“Energy Conservation Policy”, which stipulates operational policies for improving energy efficiency of the real estate portfolio,and “GHG Emissions Reduction Policy”, which aims to create a decarbonized society.

56• Environmental Consideration of Portfolio. To track the environmental performance of our properties, we rely on certifications
issued by third-party organizations, such as the Development Bank of Japan’s (“DBJ”) Green Building Certification, Comprehensive Assessment System for Built Environment Efficiency (“CASBEE”) certification, Building Energy-efficiency Labeling System(“BELS”) certification, Net Zero Energy Building (“ZEB”) certification and other equivalent certifications.
• Tenant Engagement. To increase the satisfaction of tenants in each building, we periodically carry out tenant satisfaction surveys.
JRE is also implementing various initiatives to enhance the sustainability of each building in collaboration with tenants, such as
distribution of sustainability guides. Sustainability guides introduce activities to improve the office environment, such as creating
open spaces to promote communications among workers and introducing sustainable daily efforts to reduce electricity and water
consumption. Regarding lease agreements, we include Green Lease provisions in our lease agreements that require tenants toachieve certain operational improvements and install energy-efficient retrofits. Specifically, Green Leases include provisions requiring each party to cooperate with the other party on measures to achieve sustainability targets and obtain environmental
certifications, and to share energy-consumption and water usage data. We conduct periodic surveys of property managers of all ofour properties based on the questions from Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (“GRESB”), and we analyze sustainability efforts based on survey results, which are shared with the property managers. The survey includes questions on whether aproperty manager has introduced any measures to reduce energy consumption, water usage and waste, whether it has implemented any sustainability measures and conducted any satisfaction survey for tenants and whether it has engaged in any social
activities with local communities. As for property level energy, water usage, and waste-related data, we utilize a system to give
online feedback regarding such data.
• Employee Health and Well-being at the Asset Manager. We believe that the physical and mental health of employees and the creationof an accommodating work environment are key to maintaining and improving our business performance. As an example ofrelated initiatives, we conduct annual anonymous surveys of all employees on a wide range of topics, including the work environment, benefits and educational support. The survey results are reported to the Asset Manager’s President & CEO and are used for
improving our activities. In addition, the HR department interviews employees to gather their opinions on how to improve operational efficiency. Furthermore, all employees can consult with the General Manager of the Asset Manager’s ComplianceDepartment, a law firm, or an outside specialist on matters such as risks/problems at work, grievances and improvement requests
as well as whistleblowing on illegal or unethical behaviour by officers and employees. Every employee can seek any of the foregoing consultations anonymously, and whistleblowers are given protection under the Whistleblower Protection Act of Japan. If
deemed necessary, such matters of consultations are reported to the President & CEO, who will conduct an investigation andtake measures necessary for resolution of the issue. In addition, we have implemented various measures, including creating a
productive and employee-friendly workplace and promoting diverse work styles, to promote the physical and mental health of
employees, help them achieve good work-life balance, and increase employees’ motivation.
• I nternational Initiatives and External Evaluations. We attach great importance to ESG-conscious investing in order to continuously
improve the value of assets under management, and are a signatory or participant in various international initiatives, such as PRI,
RE100 and, as a member of Mitsubishi Estate Group, the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC). Also, JRE’s updated CO2
emissions reduction target has been approved by the Science Based Targets initiatives (SBTi), which is a global joint initiative by
Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the United Nations Global Compact, the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World
Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). Furthermore, several of the Asset Manager’s ESG initiatives have been evaluated highly by external organizations in Japan and overseas. Going forward, we will maximize long-term returns by strengthening our ESG initiatives.

We use the following indicators to measure the attainment of the environmental or social characteristics we promote:• Environmental Initiative	  ° Climate Change Initiatives. We aim to achieve a 80% reduction in total CO2 emissions from our portfolio by FY2030
compared with the 2019 level and net zero CO2 emissions from our portfolio by FY2050. We recognize that reduction of
GHG emissions is of critical importance to ensure the sustainability of our business. We have been working to reduce energy
consumption and GHG emissions of our portfolio by installing eco-friendly equipment such as LED lighting, which reduces
electronic usage, and energy-saving air conditioning systems. The percentage of progress in installing LED light bulbs incertain common areas for the entire portfolio was 55% as of March 31, 2022 and 57% as of March 31, 2023 on a gross floorarea basis. In addition, we have accelerated the use of electricity 100% from renewable energy sources, and the number ofproperties in which we had introduced 100% renewable electricity was 59 as of March 31, 2023 but had grown to 60 as of
September 30, 2023. We reduced total CO2 emissions from our portfolio by 31.01% in FY2021, and 71.02% in FY2022,
as compared with the 2019 level. As for energy consumption, we reduced total energy consumption from our portfolio by
7.86% in FY2021, and 9.10% in FY2022 as compared with the 2019 level.
	  ° Water Saving Initiatives. We aim to achieve 20% reduction in water use (intensity) in our portfolio by FY2030 comparedwith the 2019 level. Some of the buildings we own are equipped with facilities for reusing rainwater and greywater, as we
endeavour to reduce the consumption of tap water. We reduced water use (intensity) by our properties by 29.63% in
FY2021, and 23.38% in FY2022, as compared with the 2019 level.
	  ° Waste Management Initiatives. We aim to achieve a more than 90% waste recycling rate in our portfolio by FY2030. We have
reduced waste and promoted efficient use of resources through the promotion of reuse and recycling at our properties. In
FY2021, we achieved a 55.3% waste recycling rate in our portfolio and in FY2022, we achieved a 55.0% waste recycling
rate in our portfolio.
	  ° Renewable Energy. We are making efforts to accelerate the use of electricity from renewable energy recognized by RE100(where “RE” stands for renewable electricity), which is a global corporate renewable energy initiative bringing together
hundreds of large and ambitious businesses committed to 100% renewable electricity. In May 2022, JRE joined the international initiative RE100 as the first J-REIT. We aim to make 90% of electricity (of Scope 2) used at our buildings renewableenergy by FY2030 and 100% by FY2050. While as of the end of FY2021 the renewal energy rate (Scope 2) of our portfolio
was 16.4%, the renewable energy rate of our portfolio had increased to 72.9% as of the end of FY2022.
• Environmental Consideration of Portfolio. As of March 31, 2023, 76.3% of our properties were green-certified based on gross floorarea of owned buildings. As of September 30, 2023, 76.4% of our properties were green-certified based on gross floor area of
owned buildings. Three of our properties with BELS certification are also certified as ZEB Ready (energy savings of greater than50%) and one property is certified as ZEB Oriented (gross floor area 10,000 m2 or more and energy savings beyond the regulation for each application).
• Tenant Engagement	  ° Including “Green Lease” Provisions in Our Agreements. JRE has increasingly entered into Green Leases. While, as of March 31,
2022, floor area percentage for buildings leased under a Green Lease agreement that contains a cost recovery clause was
58.4%, such percentage had increased by 11.2% to 69.6% as of March 31, 2023. (The figures for Green Leases include
properties disposed during each fiscal year based on the SASB standards).

58	  ° Sustainability Program for Tenants. We conduct periodic satisfaction surveys to solicit feedback from tenants to maintain ahigh level of tenant satisfaction and use such feedback to improve our buildings’ sustainability. Our survey on tenant satisfaction covered 26.4% of our properties calculated based on the number of buildings as of May 2021, 56.2% as of May 2022,
more than double the previous percentage, and 56.0% as of May 2023. We believe that this improvement is thanks toadvances in the understanding of property managers as a result of our ongoing engagement efforts, such as ESG seminars forproperty managers.
•E mployee Health and Well-being at the Asset Manager. As described above, we conduct annual anonymous surveys of all employees
on a wide range of topics, including the work environment, benefits and educational support. During the fiscal period ended on
March 31, 2023, we conducted the latest survey and achieved a score of 4.2 (on a 5-point scale) for the employee satisfactionlevel, almost the same level as the previous score of 4.4, with a 100% response rate.
• International Initiatives and External Evaluations
	  ° PRI Assessment. The Asset Manager is a PRI (Principles for Responsible Investment) signatory, which is required to reportannually on the status of its ESG integration practices for evaluation, and received “4 Stars” in the “Investment and Stewardship Policy” module and the highest rating “5 Stars” in the “Real Estate” module in 2021.
	  ° MSCI Japan ESG Select Leaders Index. The MSCI Japan ESG Select Leaders Index is an index to represent companies withhigh ESG performance selected based on the data from the MSCI Japan IMI Index. JRE was selected as a constituent of the
MSCI Japan ESG Select Leaders Index as of June 1, 2022.
	  ° GRESB Real Estate Rating. GRESB was founded in 2009 by a group of major European pension funds who played leadingroles in launching PRI. In the 2023 GRESB Real Estate Assessment, JRE received for the sixth consecutive year “5 Stars,”
which is the highest GRESB rating (out of “5 Stars”), and also received for the eighth consecutive year “Green Star” basedon its excellent ESG management system and performance record.
	  ° Carbon Disclosure Project (“CDP”) score. Since 2003, CDP has sent questionnaires every year to major companies to assess
corporate actions on climate change. JRE has participated in CDP Climate Change Program since 2018. In the 2022 assessment, JRE has received the highest score of “A” securing a place on its annual “A List” for the first time.

How did this financial product consider principal adverse impacts on sustainability factors?

We collect on an ongoing basis select information on our existing portfolio regarding the principal adverse impact indicators,
including exposure to fossil fuels through investment assets, exposure to energy-inefficient investment assets, GHG emissions and energy
consumption intensity. We monitor these indicators and aim to manage the risk connected to principal adverse impacts from our investment decisions in several ways, including general screening criteria and due diligence. As we actively conduct due diligence review ofproperties before acquisition and promote environmental and social initiatives as described above, we believe that any principal adverse
impacts are substantially mitigated.
• Exposure to fossil fuels through assets. We do not invest in real estate assets involved in the extraction, storage, transport or manufacture of fossil fuels.
• Exposure to energy-inefficient investment assets. We consider properties other than the properties that have received any of thegreen building certifications and energy-saving certifications (“Green Assets”) to be energy-inefficient. As of September 30, 2023,
76.4% of our properties were Green Assets and 23.6% of our properties were not Green Assets. As described in more detail above,
we implement as appropriate measures to reduce the environmental impact of these properties, including by obtaining environmental certifications.
• Energy consumption intensity. The amounts of energy consumption of our properties per square meter are 0.165 MWh in FY2021
and 0.166 MWh in FY2022. The amounts of Scope 1 GHG emission of our properties were 3,011 t-CO2 in FY2021 and 2,786
t-CO2 in FY 2022. Scope 2 GHG emissions of our properties were 32,350 t-CO2 in FY2021 and 14,380 t-CO2 in FY2022.
Scope 3 GHG emissions of our properties were 35,658 t-CO2 in FY2021 and 12,670 t-CO2 in FY2022.
We believe that investment decisions that negatively affect climate or other environment-related resources, or have negative implications for society, can have a significant impact to risk and value creation for our unitholders. To this end, we consider the principal adverse
impacts of our investment decisions on the above sustainability factors throughout all major steps of the investment decision and management process throughout the lifecycle of the properties in our portfolio.
We believe that climate change is more than an environmental issue, which has a major impact on social and industrial infrastructure, and therefore on our business activities. To maintain sustainable and stable earnings over the long term and overcome the oncomingchanges from climate change, we will need to evaluate the risks and opportunities presented by climate change, and reflect such evaluationin our operational policies and asset management. Based on the foregoing, JRE has examined the magnitude of the financial impact of risks
and opportunities presented by climate change for scenarios involving temperature increases between 4°C and 1.5°C, which are scenarios
published by international organizations and other entities that predict the impact of global warming and climate change and of thechanges that may occur in the business environment as a result of long-term policy trends in relation to climate change. We examined theimpact of each scenario for 2030 (medium-term prospects) and 2050 (long-term prospects) for qualitative financial impact analysis. As forquantitative financial impact analysis, we assumed as of 2050 based on the FY2021 operating profit.

Note Regarding the EU Taxonomy Regulation
As set out above, JRE promotes certain environmental characteristics.
The Asset Manager is required, under Regulation (EU) 2020/852 (the “EU Taxonomy Regulation”), to disclose whether its assets
are aligned with the environmental objectives formulated in the EU Taxonomy regulation. The EU Taxonomy Regulation is to be complemented by technical standards and screening criteria which are currently developed. The technical screening criteria for the first twoenvironmental objectives (climate change mitigation and climate change adaptation) were adopted in December 2021. They apply as ofJanuary 1, 2022.
JRE invests in economic activities that are eligible under the EU Taxonomy Regulation in respect of climate change mitigation and/or climate change adaptation. This means that screening criteria for these investments have been or will be developed. The Asset Manager
expressly states that in view of the fact that the regulations are still under development or have only recently been adopted and the fact that,as a result thereof, data on alignment of JRE’s investments with these environmental objectives and climate related goals in line with EU
Taxonomy Regulation are not sufficiently available, the Asset Manager is not currently in a position to disclose on an accurate and reliablebasis to what extent JRE’s investments technically qualify as Taxonomy-aligned or “environmentally sustainable” within the specific meaning of the EU Taxonomy Regulation. JRE’s investments may have a positive contribution to these environmental objectives and may
therefore eventually be considered Taxonomy-aligned, but at this stage, the Asset Manager is required to state that there is no minimum
proportion of JRE’s investments that qualify as such.
The Asset Manager further states that the “do no significant harm” principle applies only to those investments underlying the financial product that takes into account the EU criteria for environmentally sustainable economic activities. The investments underlying theother portion of this financial product do not take into account the EU criteria for environmentally sustainable economic activities.
