 utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the pricing services or broker-dealers also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market transactions in comparable securities and the various relationships between securities in determining fair value and/or characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, option-adjusted spreads, credit spreads, estimated default rates, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral, and other unique security features which are then used to calculate the fair values.

Annually, a full scope, detailed appraisal report is completed which typically includes market analysis, cost approach, sales comparison approach and an income approach containing a discounted cash flow analysis. The full scope report is prepared by a third-party appraisal firm. The investment manager, including through communication with the Independent Valuation Advisor, monitors for material events that the investment manager believes may be expected to have a material impact on the most recent estimated fair values of such private real estate investments.

The investment manager, in conjunction with the Independent Valuation Advisor, values the private real estate investments using the valuation methodology it deems most appropriate and consistent with industry best practices and market conditions. The investment manager expects the primary methodology used to value private real estate investments will be the income approach. Consistent with industry practices, the income approach incorporates actual contractual lease income, professional judgments regarding
