Sumitomo Fudosan Shopping City Ariake Garden

Acquired Highest (Five-Star) Rating in DBJ Green Building Certification
Percentage of properties with green building certifications reached approx. 55%
Sumitomo Realty & Development Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President: Kojun Nishima;
hereinafter "Sumitomo Realty") is pleased to announce that Sumitomo Fudosan Shopping City Ariake
Garden (hereinafter "Ariake Garden retail building"), the large-scale shopping mall with approximately 200
stores that is the core facility of the Ariake Garden, a large mixed-use development project completed inMarch 2020, has today received the highest (five-star) rating in the Retail category of DBJ Building
Certification by the Development Bank of Japan (DBJ).
To date, we have acquired the certification for a total of 26 office buildings. With this latest addition, ourcertified properties reached a gross floor area of around 800,000 tsubo (one tsubo is roughly 3.3 ㎡) andmake up approximately 55% of all our owned properties.

Ariake Garden is located in Tokyo’s waterfront area, which has been designated as a Specific Urban
Reconstruction Emergency Development District and Special Zone for Asian Headquarters. As a key areafor promoting the enhancement of Tokyo’s international competitiveness as a city, the area has been
undergoing rapid development, including the addition of facilities for international business, tourism,commercial facilities and housing. In contract to the growing population in the area, however, commercial
facilities that support people's daily lives such as supermarkets and clothing stores were limited. Ariake
Garden retail building was developed as a facility that meets both the daily needs and needs on special
occasions of nearby residents, and currently caters to a large number of visitors.
The certification not only takes into account energy saving performance, but also facility performance
aspects such as securing EV charging spaces, contributions to the local community, disaster preparedness
including the stockpiling of adequate emergency provisions, and other considerations for user diversity
such as the installation of a prayer room and multi-lingual (Japanese, English and Chinese) facility
announcements. As a result, the highest five-star rating was awarded.
