**PART I**

**ITEM 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BUSINESS**

**Overview**

CIM Opportunity Zone Fund, L.P. (the "Fund") was established in 2019 and is organized as a perpetual life, open-ended vehicle formed for the purpose of investing in infrastructure and real estate, through entities that acquire, own, develop or re-develop and operate infrastructure and real estate assets, including assets in low-income communities, in the United States and its possessions that have been designated as "Opportunity Zones" pursuant to Section 1400Z-1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), with the objective of generating returns from the capital appreciation and operating income once development of these assets is complete. The Fund intends to qualify as a "qualified opportunity fund" within the meaning of Section 1400Z-2 of the Code. The general partner of the Fund is CIM Opportunity Zone Fund GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("the General Partner") and an affiliate of CIM Group, LLC (together with its controlled affiliates, "CIM"). One or more affiliates of CIM acts as the manager of the Fund (the "Manager"). The Fund also has limited partners (the "Limited Partners", affiliated limited partners (the "Affiliated Limited Partners") and, together with the General Partner, (the "Partners").

***CIM Overview***

The Fund expects to benefit from CIM's competitive advantages, including its vertically integrated team, community-based approach, disciplined underwriting and risk management. CIM's vertically integrated real assets platform is supported by over 900 employees with multidisciplinary expertise, including research, acquisitions, credit analysis, development, finance, leasing and on-site property management capabilities.

CIM's disciplined strategy relies on its sound business plans and value creation execution rather than financial engineering to produce returns. CIM believes that its judicious use of leverage, multiple underwriting scenarios and disciplined capital deployment has allowed it to build a well-performing portfolio of assets and avoid significant legacy issues related to impaired assets. CIM believes that utilizing multiple underwriting scenarios, on both a leveraged and unleveraged basis (gauging potential returns based on average conditions across multiple market cycles, including long-term average and current market case scenarios), enables CIM to assess potential returns relative to risk within a range of potential outcomes.

Since inception, CIM, on behalf of itself and over 200 institutional partners and co-investors, has operated more than 300 discretionary real estate and real estate-related equity, debt and infrastructure holdings.

***Investment Strategies***

The Fund seeks to source opportunities and focus its strategy in Opportunity Zones. CIM has cultivated deep relationships with consultants, prospective partners, brokers and other members of the real estate community in metropolitan markets primarily located throughout the United States in traditional downtowns of cities and main streets of densely populated communities in which CIM has qualified for real asset acquisitions ("Qualified Communities"). Certain of these Qualified Communities are located in Opportunity Zones and CIM believes its Qualified Communities provide it with a deep proprietary pipeline of development opportunities in Opportunity Zones.

***Opportunity Zone Tax Benefits***

As part of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, U.S. federal tax legislation enacted into law on July 4, 2025, ("OBBBA"), Congress extended and modified the Opportunity Zone program initially enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, a U.S. federal tax legislation enacted into law on December 22, 2017 (the "TCJA"), which provides tax benefits to encourage investments in designated low-income communities known as qualified Opportunity Zones. This is a brief summary of the benefits available to a prospective investor that invests in a "qualified opportunity fund" within the meaning of Section 1400Z-2 of the Code (a "QOF"). For more information, see "Risk Factors—Certain Regulatory, Tax and Legal Risks."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Deferral*: Prospective investors can elect to invest gain from the sale or exchange of property within six months into a QOF. Investors are only required to invest an amount up to the amount of the gain, not the entire original investment, in the QOF to obtain the benefits of the QOF. In general, the gain from such sale or exchange of property is deferred until the earlier of (i) when the investor sells or exchanges its interest in the QOF (or certain other events occur) and (ii) (A) December 31, 2026, in the case of investments in a QOF made prior to December 31, 2026, and (B) in the case of investments in a QOF made after December 31, 2026, five years from the date of such investments (clauses (A) and (B) together, the "Inclusion Date").

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Deferral End Date and 5-year and 7-year Basis Increases: Any deferred gain must be recognized no later than the Inclusion Date (or earlier if the investor sells its interests or certain other events occur). The amount of gain recognized is the difference between the amount of the gain originally deferred (or the fair market value of the QOF if less) and the investor's tax basis in its interest. With respect to investments made prior to December 31, 2026, if the investor had held its interest for at least seven years by the time of recognition, the investor will only recognize 85% of the amount of gain originally deferred. If the investor had held its interest for at least five years by the time of recognition, the investor will only recognize 90% of the amount of gain originally deferred. With respect to investments made prior to December 31, 2026, in order to have a 5-year or 7-year holding period required for the 10% or 15% reduction, respectively, an investment in a QOF must have been made by December 31, 2021 or December 31, 2019, respectively. For example, if an individual investor sells property generating a $100 capital gain and elects to defer such gain by investing $100 in the Fund within 180 days of when the gain would otherwise be recognized for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the investor would recognize the deferred gain on December 31, 2026, and, assuming the fair market value of the investor's Fund interest is greater than $100 at that time, the investor will owe U.S. federal income tax of approximately $23.80 (assuming a 20% capital gains tax rate and a 3.8% "net investment income" tax). State income tax consequences vary by state. If the investor had made their investment on or before December 31, 2019 then they would only be required to recognize $85 of gain and owe U.S. federal income tax of approximately $20.23. If the investor had made their investment on or before December 31, 2021 then they would only be required to recognize $90 of gain and owe U.S. federal income tax of approximately $21.42. With respect to investments made prior to December 31, 2026, in order to have a 5-year holding period required for the 10% reduction, an investment in a QOF must be held for five years from the date of such investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *10-Year Permanent Exclusion Benefit*: If the investor holds its interest in a QOF for at least 10 years, the investor can (i) elect to increase its tax basis in the QOF to fair market value on the date of a sale or exchange of the interest or (ii) under U.S. Treasury Regulations, elect to exclude from gross income some or all of the gains arising from the sale of some or all of the Opportunity Zone property by the QOF ("Ten-Year Benefit"). This allows the investor to exclude the appreciation on the originally invested gain from U.S. federal income tax, including any gain that would otherwise be subject to depreciation recapture under Sections 1245 or 1250 of the Code.

***Competitive Advantages***

The Fund benefits from three principal competitive advantages that CIM has developed for over 30 years. CIM believes the combination of these attributes positions the Fund to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns for the Limited Partners.

***Vertically Integrated Team***

Established in 1994, CIM is a vertically integrated, community-focused real estate and infrastructure owner, operator, lender, and developer of real assets. CIM is led by its three original founders, Richard Ressler, Avi Shemesh and Shaul Kuba (together, the "Founding Principals"), alongside a senior leadership team of 14 Principals. As of December 31, 2025, CIM employs over 900 professionals.

Through CIM's vertically integrated structure, CIM is able to leverage in-house expertise across the full life cycle of assets to drive value creation across the process. CIM has dedicated teams for sourcing/acquisition, credit analysis, development, financing, commercial leasing, onsite property management and distribution. These functions bring alignment of interests and deep expertise, allowing for disciplined business plan underwriting and effective risk management. The Firm also seeks to maximize synergies across its vertically integrated platform. The three investment platforms, real estate, infrastructure, and credit, leverage in-house expertise to create value within each investment.

CIM is headquartered in Los Angeles, California and has offices in Atlanta, Georgia, Chicago, Illinois, Dallas, Texas, New York, New York, Orlando, Florida, Phoenix, Arizona, London, UK and Tokyo, Japan. CIM also maintains additional offices with distribution staff and JV partnerships. As of December 31, 2025, CIM's Assets Owned and Operated ("AOO") was approximately $32.0 billion of assets across its vehicles. AOO represents the aggregate assets owned and operated by CIM on behalf of partners (including where CIM contributes alongside for its own account) and co-investors, whether or not CIM has discretion, in each case without duplication.

Each opportunity for the Fund will be overseen by a dedicated team that is responsible for taking assets from sourcing through underwriting, due diligence and Investment Committee (as defined below) approval, acquisition, management, development and disposition. As part of the process, the team will draw on CIM's in-house real estate expertise in research,

acquisition, credit analysis, development, finance, leasing and onsite property management capabilities. CIM's deal teams are staffed with team members across departments and locations and deal teams work across CIM's various strategies and asset types. As a result, the entire organization is focused on CIM's strategies across all asset classes, including the Fund's build-to-core program within CIM's value-add strategy. An investment committee (the "Investment Committee") comprised of a majority of CIM's Principals, platform co-heads and a secondee from Mitsui & Co. with one legal observer and one compliance observer will be responsible for reviewing and approving proposals for the Fund's acquisitions, development, re-development and dispositions. The Investment Committee has delegated its preliminary investment authority with respect to real estate equity investments to the Investment Committee – Preliminary Subcommittee. The full Investment Committee will grant final approval to move forward with an acquisition, including allowing a deposit to go non-refundable on a transaction. At any meeting of the Investment Committee, a majority of committee members, which must include all three Founding Principals, constitutes a quorum. Unanimous approval of the Founding Principals and the majority vote of all members present at an Investment Committee meeting at which a quorum is present is required for the acquisition or disposition of an investment. The size, composition and/or policies regarding quorum and/or voting privileges and the requirements of the Investment Committee may be changed from time to time.

***Community-Based Strategy***

CIM believes that successful development, re-development, ownership and operation of real estate and infrastructure assets benefits from strong community engagement and support. CIM is currently involved in over 135 densely populated communities across North America, which has provided, and is expected to continue to provide, CIM with a diverse, proprietary source of deal flow.

For over 30 years, CIM has principally deployed capital in its Qualified Communities, many of which encompass Opportunity Zones. Qualified Communities are distinct districts that have dedicated resources to become or are currently vibrant communities where people can live, work, shop and be entertained – all within walking distance of, or close proximity to, public transportation. These areas also generally have high barriers-to-entry, high population density, improving demographic trends and a propensity for growth. Today's economic environment continues the trend of urbanization that the U.S. has been experiencing over the last two decades fueled by the need for efficient solutions to meet continued population growth and limited natural resources. CIM believes that many of the risks associated with acquiring, owning and operating a real asset are mitigated by accumulating local market knowledge of the community where the asset lies. CIM typically spends significant time and resources qualifying targeted communities prior to making any acquisitions. The time that CIM has spent in its Qualified Communities has historically resulted in a significant number of opportunities sourced on an "off-market" basis outside of formal or public auction processes.

***Disciplined Underwriting***

CIM's disciplined underwriting approach is based on CIM's adherence to stringent guidelines regardless of market conditions. CIM generally employs multiple underwriting scenarios, including a "long-term average" underwriting scenario and a "current market case" underwriting scenario, and underwrites all of its opportunities on both a leveraged and unleveraged basis. CIM's experience across multiple market cycles has underscored its long-term average underwriting, which is an evaluation of each asset's performance assuming financing, managing and selling the asset based on long-term historical averages. CIM believes that utilizing its multiple underwriting scenarios will assist the Fund with accurately assessing potential returns relative to the risk within a range of potential outcomes. CIM believes this underwriting discipline provides an advantage that will help the Fund to better identify and price attractive opportunities and to assess the anticipated performance and levels of risk and return that the Fund should expect from its assets.

**Fund Strategy**

***Overview***

As of December 31, 2025, the Fund has investments in 19 assets with a carrying value of $2.6 billion. The Fund's strategy is to invest in entities that develop, re-develop, own and operate substantially diversified real estate and real estate-related assets in metropolitan markets primarily located throughout the United States and its possessions solely in Opportunity Zones. CIM believes that the critical mass of development and re-development in Opportunity Zones creates positive externalities, which enhance the value of Opportunity Zone real estate assets. CIM will target development and redevelopment of infrastructure and real estate assets in Opportunity Zones through CIM's extensive network and its current opportunistic activities. The Fund's portfolio investments relating to a particular project are typically held through a subsidiary of the Fund that holds a majority interest and is the sole manager or co-manager of the project. In cases where the Fund is a co-managing member, all major decisions made with respect to that portfolio asset require the consent of the Fund or its General Partner. For a list of portfolio assets, see "Item 2. Properties."

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

CIM believes these assets will provide greater returns than similar assets as a result of the improving demographics, public commitment, and significant private investment that characterize these areas, including opportunistic capital deployment made or intended to be made by CIM therein. CIM believes that further incremental value creation will result from the enhancement of the portfolio of underlying assets as a result of CIM's active management.

CIM believes the Fund's build-to-core program, within its value-add strategy in improving markets, facilitates investments in development and repositioning transactions. While these transactions may result in lower short-term returns than those required by a typical opportunistic vehicle, they maximize long-term returns. Historically, substantial asset value has been created through rent growth and improved investment liquidity as maturing submarkets develop over time.

***Qualified Communities Selection Process***

CIM's community qualification is a key consideration when making an acquisition decision. Since 1994, CIM has qualified 135 communities in high barrier-to-entry markets and deployed capital in 75 of these Qualified Communities. CIM continuously seeks to identify new Qualified Communities, and the community qualification process generally takes between six months and five years, with the findings of such process formalized in a Qualified Community Memorandum. When sourcing new opportunities, the Fund will generally source opportunities within the Qualified Communities identified by CIM. The communities are located in both primary and secondary markets, which can encompass (1) transitional metropolitan districts, (2) growth markets adjacent to CBDs and/or (3) well-established, thriving metropolitan areas including major CBDs. By focusing its sourcing in the Qualified Communities identified by CIM and in which CIM is active, the Fund expects to benefit from CIM's experience in building and monitoring its existing portfolio of real assets as well as leveraging its established network of relationships.

We intend to focus on transitional metropolitan districts and adjacent growth markets and thriving metropolitan areas. When considering investments in these areas, the qualification criteria employed by CIM includes analyzing for positive population growth and trends, broad public support for CIM's business plans in the community and the potential to deploy a minimum of $100 million of opportunistic equity into the Qualified Community within five years. Additionally, for transitional metropolitan districts and adjacent growth markets, CIM looks to fill underserved niches in the community's real estate infrastructure. For thriving metropolitan areas, CIM looks for opportunities to capitalize on pricing that has fallen below intrinsic value.

***Acquisition Process***

CIM employs an acquisition process on behalf of the Fund that is similar to that of its previous real estate and infrastructure funds. CIM follows a clearly defined and disciplined acquisition process that it believes enables it to identify and select attractive assets and to quantify and mitigate relative risk factors. This process carries an asset through its entire lifecycle, spanning all stages including sourcing, research, underwriting, financing, acquisition, development, management and disposition.

***Sourcing of Opportunities***

The Fund utilizes CIM's in-depth knowledge of its Qualified Communities and its broad network of relationships to identify and acquire properties at what CIM believes to be a discount to their intrinsic (i.e., expected long-term) values in Opportunity Zones. CIM has developed an extensive network of relationships, including owners, lenders, special servicers, financial intermediaries and other industry participants, from which it cultivates these off-market or limited auction opportunities. CIM believes that it has, over many years, earned a reputation as both a fair transaction partner and a reliable closer, and believes that it has become a preferred buyer within many of its Qualified Communities.

***Underwriting***

CIM's investments team is responsible for the underwriting and due diligence of an asset and underwriting scenarios when evaluating potential acquisition opportunities.

After a potential acquisition is identified, CIM conducts a thorough property-level review with a multi-disciplinary team led by one of its Principals. In preparing financial projections, CIM first reviews historical property performance and then makes adjustments to reflect changes deemed appropriate or necessary based on CIM's assessment. CIM also prepares a capital budget based on its analysis of the property's physical condition in consideration of current and anticipated uses. Acquisition recommendations are presented to the Investment Committee for both preliminary and final approval. Preliminary approvals occur early in the due diligence process and include a well-conceived draft of the business plan for the proposed acquisition. Final approval includes a review of additional due diligence findings and the final business plan, schedule and budget for the proposed acquisition and a grant of authority to execute the proposed transaction.

***Real Assets Management***

In order to maximize the value of acquisitions once they are owned by its vehicles, CIM enhances the value of its assets through active management, which leverage its deep understanding of metropolitan communities to position properties for multiple uses and to maximize operating income. Additionally, the investment team that sourced and underwrote the acquisition remains heavily involved with the Portfolio Oversight group to oversee each asset's business plan execution, working closely with CIM's team of onsite property managers to help ensure original underwriting expectations are met or any subsequent deviation with respect to the property is properly addressed.

***Disposition***

CIM actively monitors all assets by performing a periodic hold/sell analysis that evaluates the potential risks associated with continuing to hold the property as compared to selling the property in the current market, based on CIM's estimate of its current market price, and potentially redeploying the capital received therefrom in new real asset opportunities. Among other factors, CIM evaluates market cycles, capital markets, projected cash yields and local real estate market conditions when performing a hold/sell analysis. CIM currently contemplates that Portfolio Assets will not be sold until the first investors in the Fund have had the opportunity to avail themselves of the Ten-Year Benefit. "Portfolio Assets" are assets that are held indirectly by the Fund through investments in limited liability companies, from time to time, including interests in individual real estate assets and/or real estate portfolios and infrastructure assets and businesses or similar assets or interests. Alternatively, the Fund may realize liquidity by means of the completion of one or more public offerings or other listings, whereby all or a portion of the interests in the Fund (or a successor vehicle or additional entity or entities utilized to implement such an offering) are sold. See "Item 1A. Risk Factors – Capital Contributions made to the Fund by a Limited Partner in respect of each Capital Commitment will be subject to the Lock-Up Period."

***Portfolio Information***

As of December 31, 2025, we had interests in 19 investments with a carrying value of $2.6 billion. For additional information on the Fund's portfolio investments, see "Item 2. — Properties" for a detailed listing of such properties.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund entered into agreements to form Westlands Electric Power Company, LLC ("WEPCO"), a power company intending to capitalize on the long-term, secular trends within the US energy markets. WEPCO is a newly-formed company that holds solar investments previously held by the Fund and other CIM-affiliated entities. The transaction was consummated over three phases, with the Fund eventually owning approximately 66.7% of the interests in WEPCO (whether directly or through subsidiaries) once the transaction was fully completed.

WEPCO owns operating solar projects, including those contributed by the Fund, as well as development projects that are expected to qualify for solar tax credits and generate revenue from off-taker agreements that have either been executed or are in active negotiations. WEPCO is expected to continue to invest in an ongoing pipeline of both renewable and non-renewable assets in the long run across Opportunity Zones.

***Senior Management Team***

The Fund will leverage the operating and industry experience of CIM's senior management team, Portfolio Oversight and Investment professionals, as well as their relationships, to source acquisitions and execute business plans. Each opportunity for the Fund will be assigned to a focused team responsible for managing the asset from sourcing through underwriting, due diligence, acquisition, development, management and disposition. As part of this process, the team will draw upon CIM's deep network of relationships throughout Opportunity Zones in CIM's Qualified Communities and utilize its in-house, vertically integrated expertise in market research, urban planning, community relations, asset acquisition, engineering, legal, finance, development, re-development, construction, leasing and management.

***Term***

The Fund will continue in existence indefinitely, but may be dissolved and wound up (i) at any time by the General Partner in its sole discretion, (ii) upon the bankruptcy, termination, dissolution or redemption of the General Partner, (iii) with the consent of Limited Partners representing both (x) 75% in interest of the Limited Partners and (y) a majority of the Limited Partners by number or (iv) the entry of a decree of dissolution with respect to the Fund. Upon a dissolution of the Fund, redemptions will be suspended and no distributions will be made until the final distribution.

***Investment Company Act of 1940***

Under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), a company generally will be deemed to be an "investment company" for purposes of the 1940 Act if (1) it is, or holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities, or (2) it engages, or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. We do not believe that we are an "investment company," as such term is defined in either of those sections of the 1940 Act. If, in the future, the Fund could potentially be deemed an "investment company" under Section 3(a)(1)(A) or 3(a)(1)(C) of the 1940 Act, the Fund intends to rely on the Section 3(c)(5)(C) exemption from the registration requirements of the 1940 Act. To qualify for the exemption pursuant to Section 3(c)(5)(C), the Fund or one or more feeder funds or other intermediate entities affiliated with the General Partner that are established for the purpose of participating in the Fund (each a "Feeder Fund"), as applicable, generally will be required to hold at least (i) fifty-five percent (55%) of its assets in "qualifying" real estate assets and (ii) eighty percent (80%) of its assets in "qualifying" real estate assets and real estate-related assets.

The Fund intends to manage the portfolio in a manner to ensure it either does not meet the definition of an "investment company" under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the 1940 Act or that the exemption pursuant to Section 3(c)(5)(C) remains available. The Partnership Agreement, the subscription agreement and the related documentation with respect thereto (together, the "Agreements") contain representations and restrictions on transfer designed to ensure that conditions pursuant to the Section 3(c)(5)(C) exemption will be met.

***Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company***

We are and we will remain an "emerging growth company" as defined under The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which our total annual revenues equal or exceed $1,235,000,000, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering, (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities or (iv) the date on which we are deemed a "large accelerated filer" with at least $700 million in public float) under the Exchange Act.

As an "emerging growth company," we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• only two years of audited consolidated financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim consolidated financial statements with correspondingly reduced "Management's Discussion and Analysis" disclosure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• no requirement that we hold non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.

We have taken advantage of some of these reduced burdens, and thus the information we provide may be different from what is provided from other public companies.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period.

Notwithstanding the above, we were also a "smaller reporting company" for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which allowed us to take advantage of certain exemptions from certain reporting requirements.

**ITEM 1A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;RISK FACTORS**

**Certain General Risks of Participating in the Fund**

***No assurance can be given as to the Fund's ability to choose, make and realize assets or that the Fund will be able to implement its strategy or achieve its objective.***

There can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to generate returns for its Limited Partners or that the returns will be commensurate with the risks of owning and operating the type of real estate and infrastructure assets described herein. With respect to actual Portfolio Assets, realization of an asset before the end of its projected life may materially alter the actual returns realized by the Fund. Actual returns to Limited Partners in the Fund may be materially different than the target returns. The Fund will pay management fees and will bear other fees described herein and all expenses related to its operations. All such fees and expenses will reduce the actual returns to Limited Partners. Most of the fees and expenses will be paid regardless of whether the Fund produces positive returns. If the Fund does not produce significant positive returns, these fees and expenses could reduce the amount of the capital recovered by a Limited Partner to an amount less than the amount contributed to the Fund by such Limited Partner. There can be no assurance that any Limited Partner will receive any distribution from the Fund or a return of its contributed capital. Accordingly, participating in the Fund should only be considered by persons who can afford a loss of their entire investment. Past performance of entities associated with CIM is not necessarily indicative of future results and provides no assurance of future results.

***The Fund may participate in a limited number of assets, and, as a consequence, the aggregate return of the Fund may be substantially and adversely affected by the unfavorable performance of even a single asset.***

Limited Partners have no assurance as to the degree of diversification in the Portfolio Assets, either by sector, geographic region or asset type. To the extent the Fund concentrates its holdings in particular properties, asset classes or geographic regions, its overall performance may become more susceptible than a more widely diversified fund to fluctuations in value resulting from adverse economic and business conditions with respect thereto. Such concentration may involve risks greater than those generally associated with more diversified funds, including significant fluctuations in returns. Such larger assets may also give rise to a need or desire for CIM to offer and/or allocate a portion of such opportunities to co-investors (including co-investment vehicles and/or Limited Partners), other partners of CIM and/or other third parties, which arrangements may give rise to additional risks and conflicts of interest relating to the Fund's objectives and the allocation of opportunities.

***The activity of investing in infrastructure and real estate through entities that identify, acquire, own, develop or re-develop, and operating Opportunity Zone investments is generally expected to be highly competitive, and involves a high degree of risk and uncertainty.***

The Fund may compete for suitable assets with other funds, as well as individuals, companies, strategic buyers, publicly traded real estate investment trusts ("REITs"), financial institutions, other institutional investors, sovereign wealth

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

funds, hedge funds and investment funds associated with other financial sponsors or institutional investors, private equity and debt investors and credit vehicles. Further, a number of real estate funds and REITs have been formed for the purpose of investing in Opportunity Zones. Additional real estate funds, vehicles and REITs with similar objectives may be formed in the future (resulting in larger funds and vehicles). CIM believes that Opportunity Zone real estate and infrastructure assets remain an attractive sector and firms that have successful track records in exploiting opportunities within regions that are now classified as Opportunity Zones continue to raise capital, which further increases the competition for attractively priced real estate assets. Some of these competitors may have more relevant experience, greater financial resources and more personnel than the Fund and CIM. It is possible that competition for appropriate opportunities may increase as a result of the permanent extension of the Opportunity Zone program or as a result of the reduction in the number of qualifying census tracts (as discussed in more detail below), which may also require the Fund's investment entities to potentially participate in auctions more frequently. The outcome of these auctions cannot be guaranteed, thus potentially reducing the number of opportunities available to the Fund through its investment entities and potentially adversely affecting the terms, including price, upon which acquisitions can be made. There can be no assurance that the Funds investment entities will be able to locate, consummate and operate assets that satisfy the Fund's return target objectives or that the Fund will be able to deploy fully its committed capital. In addition, CIM's strategies in certain prospective assets may depend on its ability to enter into satisfactory relationships with joint venture or operating partners. There can be no assurance that CIM's current relationship with any such partner or operator will continue (whether on currently applicable terms or otherwise) with respect to the Fund or that any relationship with other such persons will be able to be established in the future as desired with respect to any sector or geographic market and on terms favorable to the Fund.

***The success of the Fund depends in substantial part upon the skill and expertise of the personnel at CIM.***

There is ever increasing competition among real estate managers and other industry participants for hiring and retaining qualified professionals, and there can be no assurance that these key professionals will continue to be associated with CIM throughout the life of the Fund. The loss of key personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Fund. There can be no assurance that CIM's personnel will not be solicited by and join competitors or other firms and/or that CIM will be able to hire and retain any new personnel that it seeks to add to its team. None of CIM, the Fund, the General Partner nor the Manager currently intends to maintain key man life insurance with respect to any of the officers or employees of the General Partner or the Manager.

While CIM's core group of professionals are expected to devote such business time to the activities of the Fund (and other vehicles that deploy capital alongside therewith) as is necessary to conduct the business and affairs of the Fund in an appropriate manner, such professionals may work on other projects for and have other responsibilities at CIM and its affiliates, and, therefore, conflicts of interest may arise in allocating management time, services or functions. Further, the ability of CIM and its professionals working on the Fund to access other professionals and resources within CIM for the benefit of the Fund may be limited. Such access may also be limited by the internal compliance policies of CIM or other legal or business considerations, including those constraints generally discussed herein.

***Analyses and decisions by the General Partner may frequently be required to be undertaken on an expedited basis to take advantage of opportunities.***

In certain cases, the information available to the General Partner at the time of making a decision may be limited, and the General Partner may not have access to detailed information regarding the potential acquisition, such as physical and structural condition and characteristics, environmental matters, zoning regulations or other local conditions affecting a Portfolio Asset. Therefore, no assurance can be given that the General Partner, the Manager, CIM and their respective affiliates will have knowledge of all circumstances that may adversely affect a Portfolio Asset. In addition, the General Partner, the Manager, CIM and their respective affiliates expect to rely upon independent consultants in connection with its evaluation of proposed acquisitions. No assurance can be given as to the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by such independent consultants and the Fund may incur liability as a result of decisions made based upon consultants' analysis.

***The Units have not been registered under the Securities Act, the securities laws of any U.S. state or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and, therefore, cannot be resold unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws, or an exemption from such registration thereunder is available. Our Units are not listed, and we do not intend to list our Units, on an exchange, nor are our Units quoted through a quotation system.***

Our units are illiquid investments for which there is not a secondary market nor is it expected that any such secondary market will develop in the future. We do not intend to list our Units on a national securities exchange. Each Limited Partner will be required to represent that it is a qualified investor under applicable securities laws and that it is acquiring its Units for investment purposes and not with a view to resale or distribution in violation of securities laws and that it will

only sell and transfer its Units in a manner permitted by the Fund's Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2024, as amended from time to time (the "Partnership Agreement") and consistent with such laws. A Limited Partner will not be permitted to assign, sell, exchange, mortgage, pledge or transfer any of its interest, rights or obligations with respect to its Units, without the prior written consent of the General Partner, which consent may be given or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of the General Partner. Redemptions from the Fund with respect to the Units will not be permitted during the four (4) years from the date of the initial contribution made by such Limited Partner in respect of such Capital Commitment (as defined below) (the "Lock-Up Period"). Limited Partners must be prepared to bear the risks of owning Units for an extended period of time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the requirements of applicable law, the General Partner may assign, pledge or otherwise transfer its respective interest as general partner, and the Manager may assign, pledge or otherwise transfer its interest as manager, in each case to its affiliates or to third parties as described in the Partnership Agreement or the Management Agreement, by and among CIM Opportunity Zone Fund, L.P., CIM Opportunity Zone Fund GP, LLC, CIM Group, L.P., CIM RE Debt Management, LLC and CIM Controlled Company Management, LLC, dated as of January 21, 2019 (the "Management Agreement"), respectively.

***Capital contributions made to the Fund by a Limited Partner in respect of each Capital Commitment will be subject to the Lock-Up Period.***

Upon the expiration of the Lock-Up Period applicable to a Limited Partner's Units, such Limited Partner will have the right to request a redemption of all or a portion of its Units with respect to each Capital Commitment (as defined below) of a Limited Partner, as of each calendar quarter-end beginning with the first calendar quarter-end following the applicable Lock-Up Period, or at such other times, and on such other terms as conditions, as may be determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion (each, a "Redemption Date") and each redemption request will be processed in accordance with the Fund's quarterly redemption process. The minimum initial capital commitment (each a "Capital Commitment") from a Limited Partner is $5 million, although the General Partner reserves the right to accept lesser commitments at its sole discretion. Requests for redemptions must be delivered to the General Partner in writing no later than the last calendar day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the Redemption Date on which such redemption is to take place. Requests for redemptions for 100% of a Limited Partner's Units may be made regardless of the value of such Units. Requests for a partial redemption of the Units attributable to a Limited Partner may only be made in increments of $500,000, except that such incremental requirement may be waived by the General Partner in its sole discretion. The redemption price of any Units to be redeemed will be equal to the net asset value ("NAV") of the Fund allocable to such Units as calculated as of the close of business on the relevant Redemption Date (the "Redemption Price"). The Redemption Price will be paid only to the extent that the Fund has sufficient cash available to honor the redemption requests as of the applicable Redemption Date, as determined in the sole discretion of the General Partner, which available cash may be comprised of capital contributions from subsequent closing Limited Partners following the applicable Lock-Up Period, borrowings against stabilized Portfolio Assets, current income on Portfolio Assets, generally after investors expecting Opportunity Zone benefits have had the opportunity to utilize those benefits, the disposition of stabilized Portfolio Assets and/or the completion of a liquidity event.

The General Partner currently contemplates that Portfolio Assets will not be sold until the first investors in the Fund are eligible for the election to exclude gains from gross income pursuant to the Ten-Year Benefit with respect to their entire interests in the Fund (i.e., ten years after the last capital call with respect to such interests), though no guarantee can be given in this regard and in certain circumstances the Fund may sell assets before some or all investors are able to avail themselves of such election. Moreover, since the Portfolio Assets are intended to be held by the Fund long-term, the Fund is generally not expected to generate cash from disposing of Portfolio Assets which could be used to fund such redemptions. Similarly, the Fund will not be obligated to sell any property or assets, borrow funds, cease acquisition activities, reduce reserves or jeopardize the status of any REIT Subsidiary (as defined below) in order to satisfy any redemption request. The Fund may hold assets directly or indirectly through one or more entities that are classified as partnerships or corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Fund may also indirectly hold assets through one or more subsidiaries (each, a "REIT Subsidiary") that elects to be taxed as a REIT under the applicable provisions of the Code, in each case, as determined by the General Partner. To the extent that a valuation adjustment with respect to any Redemption Price is identified pursuant to an annual audit of the Fund's books, the General Partner will identify the calendar quarter in which such value adjustment occurred and will adjust the Redemption Price of the affected Limited Partners who withdrew and received distributions in respect of such redemption in such fiscal year.

If sufficient cash is not available to meet all requested redemptions as of a given Redemption Date, as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, the Fund will, to the extent of available cash as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion, distribute redemption proceeds in respect of the Units attributable to all Limited Partners that have requested a redemption no later than the last calendar day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the Redemption

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

Date on which such redemption is to take place out of available cash on a pro rata basis (based on the number of outstanding Units held by each redeeming Limited Partner). To the extent that redemption requests with respect to less than the requested amount of Units to be redeemed are met, the Limited Partner will be deemed to have made a redemption request at the next scheduled Redemption Date and the Units attributable to such Limited Partner will be fully redeemed, subject to the foregoing limitations on available cash, prior to redeeming Units attributable to any other Limited Partners that initially request to be redeemed at a subsequent Redemption Date, unless the Limited Partner indicates that such Limited Partner is no longer seeking a redemption at least sixty (60) calendar days prior to the next Redemption Date and the General Partner determines, in its sole discretion, to permit a revocation of such prior redemption requests. Therefore, there can be no assurances as to when a Limited Partner may be able to completely redeem from the Fund any amount included in its redemption request. Moreover, the General Partner may suspend the redemption privilege, and the valuation of the Fund's NAV if it determines, in its sole discretion, that such suspension is warranted for reasons, including when one or more redemptions would result in: (i) a violation of any agreement, law, regulation or policy applicable to the Fund, the General Partner, the Manager or any of their respective affiliates; (ii) any adverse tax implications on the Fund or any subsidiary thereof; (iii) the assets of the Fund being deemed to constitute "plan assets" of any plan, account or arrangement for purposes of ERISA (as defined below); (iv) a breach or default under any covenant in any agreement entered into by the Fund for borrowing; (v) the status of any REIT Subsidiary being jeopardized as qualifying as a REIT or a "domestically controlled" REIT within the meaning of Section 897(h)(2) of the Code; or (vi) upon the dissolution of the Fund pursuant to the Partnership Agreement.

***The General Partner and the Manager may, in their discretion, undertake a liquidity event in connection with the Fund.***

The General Partner may, in its sole discretion, determine to list or otherwise publicly offer all or a portion of the Units in the Fund and/or the interests in any Feeder Fund or direct or indirect interests in another entity that has (or will have) an economic stake in all or a portion of the Portfolio Assets of the Fund (a "Liquidity Event"). The final terms of a Liquidity Event, and of any restructuring transaction necessary to implement such Liquidity Event, will be determined in the discretion of the General Partner and the Manager and will be based on financial and business considerations and prevailing market conditions at the time of the Liquidity Event. No assurance can be given that the economic value received as a result of such Liquidity Event will be as favorable to the Limited Partners as the economic value attributable to the Units prior to such Liquidity Event and no assurance can be provided that such restructuring will not result in adverse tax or financial consequences to Limited Partners. Due to certain legal, tax, regulatory and/or other consideration, certain Partners may be unable to participate in a Liquidity Event. In addition, the Fund could face contractual, regulatory and/or market constraints on its ability to effect a Liquidity Event.

***Although the Fund is intended to be a perpetual-life vehicle, the Fund may acquire Portfolio Assets that may not be disposed of prior to the date the Fund is dissolved.***

As a result of dissolution, the Fund may be required to sell, distribute or otherwise dispose of Portfolio Assets at a disadvantageous time. In addition, there can be no assurance with respect to the time frame in which the winding up and the final distribution of proceeds to the Limited Partners will occur. The Fund or any vehicle or entity in which it owns an interest may be listed on a stock exchange in the future and may continue to be managed by CIM.

***The General Partner and the Manager will have exclusive responsibility for the Fund's activities, and, other than as may be set forth herein and in the Partnership Agreement and the governing documents of any other fund entity, Limited Partners will not be able to make decisions concerning the management of the Fund.***

Limited Partners have no rights or powers to take part in the management of the Fund or make decisions and may not receive the amount of any financial information relating to Portfolio Assets that is generally available to the General Partner and the Manager. Limited Partners will not have an opportunity to evaluate for themselves the relevant economic, financial and other information regarding the acquisitions by the Fund (even if prior to January 21, 2019 (the "Initial Closing") the Fund has entered into commitments to make permitted acquisitions). The General Partner will generally have sole and absolute discretion in structuring, negotiating and purchasing, financing and eventually divesting Portfolio Assets on behalf of the Fund (subject to specified exceptions). No assurance can be given that the Manager will be able to identify and obtain a sufficient number of opportunities to deploy the full amount of capital that may be committed to the Fund, including any leverage financing obtained by the Fund, or that the objectives of the Fund will be achieved. The activity of identifying, completing and realizing attractive real estate and real estate-related assets is highly competitive and involves a high degree of uncertainty and risk. Further, the Incentive Allocation to be made to the General Partner may create an incentive for the General Partner to make acquisitions that are riskier or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of such performance allocation.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

Furthermore, changes in CIM's broader business and financial condition, whether due to a significant general economic downturn or legal or regulatory factors or other circumstances, could have a material adverse effect on the Fund. Accordingly, no person should purchase Units unless such person is willing to entrust all aspects of the management of the Fund to the General Partner and the Manager.

***The Fund may enter into third-party contracts to provide asset-level services or other operations to a Portfolio Asset.***

As a result, the Fund may not have an active role in the day-to-day management of the Portfolio Assets. Although the Portfolio Asset would generally have the ability to replace any such operator, the failure of such an operator to adequately perform operations, an operator's breach of the applicable agreements, or an operator's failure to act in ways that are in the Portfolio Asset's best interest, could have a material adverse effect on the Portfolio Asset's financial condition or results of operations. The failure of the operator to make decisions, perform its services, discharge its obligations, deal with regulatory agencies or comply with laws, rules and regulations affecting the particular property, including environmental laws and regulations, in a proper manner could result in material adverse consequences to the Portfolio Asset and adversely affect the Portfolio Asset's financial condition or results of operations. Should an operator fail to perform under any applicable agreements between it and the Portfolio Asset, the Portfolio Asset may need to find a replacement manager. A Portfolio Asset may not be able to replace the operator, or do so on a timely basis, or if the Portfolio Asset is able to find a replacement operator, the replacement operator may demand terms that are unfavorable to the Portfolio Asset.

To the extent that day-to-day operation of a Portfolio Asset is not contracted to third-party managers, each Portfolio Asset's day-to-day operations will be the responsibility of such Portfolio Asset's management team. There can be no assurance that the existing management team, or any successor, will be able to operate the Portfolio Asset in accordance with the Fund's plans and objectives.

***In connection with the disposition of a Portfolio Asset, the Fund may be required to make certain representations about the business, financial affairs and other aspects (such as property, tax, insurance and litigation) of such Portfolio Asset typical of those made in connection with the sale of a business.***

Although the Fund will attempt to structure transactions so that it does not have to do so, the Fund also may have certain indemnification obligations to the extent that any such representations are inaccurate or with respect to certain potential liabilities. These arrangements may result in the incurrence of contingent liabilities which might ultimately have to be funded by the Limited Partners to the extent of their unfunded Capital Commitments, or, in some cases, the Fund may have to reserve for such contingencies or for which the General Partner may establish reserves or escrow accounts. Furthermore, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (the "Delaware LP Act"), Limited Partners that receive distributions in violation of such Delaware LP Act will, under certain circumstances, be obligated to recontribute such distributions to the Fund.

In addition, at the time of disposition of a Portfolio Asset, a potential buyer may claim that it should have been afforded the opportunity to purchase the Portfolio Asset or alternatively that such buyer should be awarded due diligence expenses incurred or statutory damages for misrepresentation relating to disclosures made, if such buyer is passed over in favor of another as part of the Fund's efforts to maximize sale proceeds. Similarly, buyers of Portfolio Assets may later sue the Fund under various damage theories for losses associated with latent defects or other problems not uncovered in due diligence.

***Before making an investment in Portfolio Assets, the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates will typically conduct due diligence that they deem reasonable and appropriate based on the facts and circumstances applicable to each potential acquisition. Due diligence may entail evaluation of important and complex business, financial, tax, accounting, environmental and legal issues.***

Outside consultants, legal advisors, accountants, investment banks and other third parties may be involved in the due diligence process to varying degrees depending on the type of asset, the costs of which will be borne by the Fund. Such involvement of third-party advisors or consultants may present a number of risks primarily relating to the General Partner's reduced control of the functions that are outsourced. In addition, if the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates are unable to timely engage third-party providers, their ability to evaluate and make more complex acquisitions could be adversely affected. When conducting due diligence and making an assessment regarding a potential acquisition, the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates will rely on the resources available to it, including information provided by the seller of the asset and, in some circumstances, third-party investigations. The due diligence investigation that the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates carry out with respect to any opportunity may not reveal or highlight all relevant facts that may be necessary or helpful in evaluating such opportunity. Moreover, such an investigation will not necessarily result in the Portfolio Asset being successful. There can be no

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

assurance that attempts to provide downside protection with respect to Portfolio Assets, including pursuant to risk management procedures, will achieve their desired effect and potential Limited Partners should regard participation in the Fund as being speculative and having a high degree of risk.

There can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to detect or prevent irregular accounting, employee misconduct or other fraudulent practices during the due diligence phase or during its efforts to monitor the Portfolio Assets on an ongoing basis or that any risk management procedures implemented by the Manager will be adequate. In the event of fraud by any Portfolio Asset or any of its affiliates, the Fund may suffer a partial or total loss of capital deployed in such Portfolio Asset. An additional concern is the possibility of material misrepresentation or omission on the part of a seller of a potential asset or its affiliate. Such inaccuracy or incompleteness may adversely affect the value of the Portfolio Asset. The Fund will rely upon the accuracy and completeness of representations made by Portfolio Assets and/or their former owners in the due diligence process to the extent reasonable when it makes Portfolio Assets, but cannot guarantee such accuracy or completeness. Under certain circumstances, payments to the Fund may be reclaimed if any such payment or distribution is later determined to have been a fraudulent conveyance or a preferential payment.

***The General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates may determine the suitability of assets based in part on the basis of financial projections for such assets.***

Estimates or projections of market conditions and supply and demand dynamics are key factors in evaluating potential opportunities and valuing properties, portfolio entities and related assets. The General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates will generally establish the capital structure of Portfolio Assets on the basis of financial projections for such properties. Projected operating results will often be based on management judgments. In all cases, projections are only estimates of future results that are based upon assumptions made at the time the projections are developed. There can be no assurance the projected results will be obtained, and actual results may vary significantly from the projections. General economic conditions, which are not predictable, can have a material adverse impact on the reliability of such projections. Assumptions or projections about asset lives, the stability, growth or predictability of costs, demand or revenues generated by an asset or other factors associated therewith may, due to various risks and uncertainties including those described herein, differ materially from actual results. Certain Portfolio Assets, as well as the Fund, the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates, will from time to time rely on the reports of consultants when evaluating the condition of real estate or real estate-related assets, infrastructure assets or other elements of a Portfolio Asset. The actual condition of the Portfolio Assets or other elements of a Portfolio Asset may be worse than anticipated, requiring adjustments such as additional capital or maintenance expenditures which may not be recoverable, allocable to counterparties or economic from a stand-alone perspective and could result in additional expenses for the Portfolio Asset and lower than expected returns to the Fund.

***In light of the Fund's strategy and the need to be able to deploy capital quickly to capitalize on potential opportunities, the Fund may from time to time maintain cash at the fund level pending deployment into Portfolio Assets, which may at times be significant.***

Such cash may be held in an account of the Fund for the benefit of the Limited Partners or may be deployed in short-term or medium-term money market accounts or other similar temporary instruments as reasonably determined by the General Partner. In the event the Fund were unable to find suitable opportunities, such cash may be maintained at the fund level for longer periods which would be dilutive to overall returns. It is not anticipated that the temporary deployment of such cash into money market accounts or other similar temporary instruments pending deployment into Portfolio Assets will generate significant interest, and Limited Partners should understand that such low interest payments on the temporarily deployed cash may adversely affect overall fund returns.

***While the Fund intends to make distributions in cash, it is possible that certain distributions may be made in kind.***

Any in-kind distributions, subject to the Partnership Agreement and the Management Agreement, could consist of (i) securities for which there is no readily available public market and/or with respect to which there are substantial transfer restrictions or (ii) securities of entities unable to perform under contractual obligations. Widespread holding of Portfolio Assets may entail a significant administrative burden to Limited Partners. In addition, the direct holding of certain Portfolio Assets may subject the holder to certain liabilities or taxes.

***We qualify as an "emerging growth company." The reduced public company reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.***

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined under the JOBS Act. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which our total annual revenues equal or exceed

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

$1,235,000,000, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering, (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities or (iv) the date on which we are deemed a "large accelerated filer" with at least $700 million in public float) under the Exchange Act.

As an "emerging growth company," we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• only two years of audited consolidated financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim consolidated financial statements with correspondingly reduced "Management's Discussion and Analysis" disclosure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• no requirement that we hold non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the available exemptions, and thus the information we provide may be different from what is provided from other public companies that do not make this election and therefore may not be comparable. We cannot predict whether investors will find our securities less attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. We have elected to use this extended transition period until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period.

Notwithstanding the above, we were also a "smaller reporting company" for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which allowed us to take advantage of certain exemptions from certain reporting requirements.

***Our Manager faces conflicts of interest with CIM and its affiliates, which could result in a disproportionate benefit to CIM or its affiliates.***

There may be conflicts of interest in allocating real estate opportunities to the Fund. There may be a significant overlap in the assets and strategies between the Fund and other funds operated by CIM, and many of the same investment personnel will provide services to both the Fund and other CIM entities. Further, the Manager may in the future operate funds, vehicles and ventures that have overlapping objectives with the Fund and therefore may compete with the Fund for opportunities. The ability of the Manager, its officers and employees to engage in other business activities, including the operation of other vehicles operated by CIM or its affiliates, may reduce the time the Manager spends managing our activities.

The Management Agreement does not prevent the Manager from operating additional real estate or infrastructure assets or participating in other real estate opportunities, some of which could compete with us and our subsidiaries. The Manager operates real estate/infrastructure assets and participates in additional real estate activities having objectives that overlap with our own, and may thus face conflicts in the operation and allocation of real estate opportunities between us, on the one hand, and such other real estate operations and activities, on the other hand. Allocation of real estate opportunities is at the discretion of the Manager and there is no guarantee this allocation will be made in the best interest of our investors.

Additionally, we have entered and may continue to enter into joint ventures or co-investments (including co-investment transactions) with CIM, its affiliates or vehicles managed or operated by CIM. Since personnel of CIM involved in managing and operating our business are also involved in the business and operations of CIM, its affiliates and other vehicles managed or operated by CIM, CIM may face conflicts of interest in determining which real estate or infrastructure program should enter into any particular joint venture or co-investment. In the event we enter into joint venture or other co-investments with CIM, its affiliates or vehicles managed or operated by CIM, there may be conflict of interest when determining when and whether to buy or sell a particular project, or to make or dispose of another real estate-related asset. In the event we enter into a joint venture or other co-investments with CIM, its affiliates or vehicles managed or operated by CIM that has a term shorter than ours, the joint venture may be required to sell its projects earlier than we may desire to sell the properties. Even if the terms of any joint venture or other co-investments between us and CIM, its

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

affiliates or vehicle operated or managed by CIM grants us the right of first refusal to buy such properties, we may not have sufficient funds or borrowing capacity to exercise our right of first refusal under these circumstances.

**Certain Risks Relating to Portfolio Assets**

***The Fund's Portfolio Assets will be subject to the risks inherent in the ownership and operation of real estate and real estate-related businesses and assets.***

Deterioration of real estate fundamentals generally, and in the United States in particular, may negatively impact the amount of income generated by the Fund's Portfolio Assets and therefore performance of the Fund. These risks include, but are not limited to, the burdens of ownership of real property, general and local economic conditions, the supply and demand for properties and/or real estate values generally, changes in environmental and zoning laws, casualty or condemnation losses, regulatory limitations on rents, decreases in property values, changes in the appeal of neighborhoods as well as particular properties to tenants or potential purchasers of such properties, changes in supply of and demand for competing properties in an area (as a result, for instance, of overbuilding), energy and supply shortages, fluctuations in real estate fundamentals (including the average occupancy and room rates for hotel properties), the financial resources of tenants, changes in availability of debt financing which may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or impracticable, changes in building, environmental and other laws and/or regulations, zoning laws, changes in real property tax rates and operating expenses, changes in interest rates, the availability of debt financing and/or mortgage funds which may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or impracticable, increased mortgage defaults, increase in borrowing rates, negative developments in the economy that depress travel or leasing activity, environmental liabilities, contingent liabilities on disposition of assets, various uninsured or uninsurable risks, natural disasters, changes in government regulations (such as rent control), casualties, acts of God, terrorist attacks and war and other factors which are beyond the control of the General Partner or the Manager. There can be no assurance that there will be a ready market for resale of Portfolio Assets because Portfolio Assets will generally not be liquid. Illiquidity may result from the absence of an established market for the assets, as well as legal or contractual restrictions on their resale by the Fund.

***The Portfolio Assets will be subject to various risks which may cause fluctuations in occupancy, rental rates, operating income and expenses or which may render the sale or financing of its properties difficult or unattractive.***

When the Fund makes acquisitions or pursues development opportunities, it may not succeed in leasing the newly acquired or developed properties at rents sufficient to cover the Fund's costs of such acquisitions or developments. Further, following the termination or expiration of a tenant's lease, there may be a period of time before the Fund will begin receiving rental payments under a replacement lease. During that period, the Fund will continue to bear fixed expenses such as interest, real estate taxes, maintenance, security, repairs and other operating expenses. In addition, declining economic conditions may impair the Fund's ability to attract replacement tenants and achieve rental rates equal to or greater than the rents paid under previous leases. Increased competition for tenants may require the Fund to make capital improvements to properties which would not have otherwise been planned. Any unbudgeted capital improvements the Fund undertakes may divert cash that would otherwise be available for distribution to Limited Partners or for satisfying redemption requests. Ultimately, to the extent the Fund is unable to renew leases or re-let space as leases expire, decreased cash flow from tenants will result, which could adversely impact the Fund's operating results.

The Fund may be required to expend funds to correct defects or to make improvements before a tenant can be found for a property at an attractive lease rate or a Portfolio Asset can be sold. No assurance can be given that the Fund will have funds available to correct those defects or to make those improvements. In acquiring a property, the Fund may agree to lock-out provisions that materially restrict it from selling that property for a period of time or impose other restrictions, such as a limitation on the amount of debt that can be placed on that property. These factors and others that could impede the Fund's ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of its properties could significantly affect the Fund's financial condition and operating results.

In some instances, the principal asset of the lessee of a Portfolio Asset may be only the tenant's improvements thereon or the liability of the lessee may be limited to its interest in such improvements. In those cases, the Fund will be required to rely on the lessee's equity interest in the improvements for its security. In the event of a default by a lessee or other premature termination of a lease, the Fund may experience delay in enforcing its rights as lessor, may incur substantial costs in protecting such Portfolio Asset and may experience an impairment of value. In addition, adverse changes in the operation of any property, or the financial condition of any tenant, could have an adverse effect on the Fund's ability to collect rent payments and, accordingly, on its ability to make distributions to Limited Partners or satisfy redemption requests. A tenant may experience, from time to time, a downturn in its business which may weaken its financial condition and result in its failure to make rental payments when due. At any time, a tenant may seek the protection of applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws, which could result in the rejection and termination of such tenant's lease or other adverse

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

consequences and thereby cause a reduction in the cash available to make distributions to Limited Partners or satisfy redemption requests. If a tenant's lease is not affirmed following bankruptcy or if a tenant's financial condition weakens, the Fund's operating cash flow may be adversely affected. No assurance can be given that tenants will not file for bankruptcy protection in the future or, if they do, that their leases will continue in effect.

Further, because the Fund may deploy a portion of its assets in REITs, the Fund may also be subject to certain risks associated with direct holdings in REITs. REITs may be affected by changes in the value of their underlying properties and by defaults by borrowers or tenants. Furthermore, REITs are dependent upon specialized management skills, have limited diversification and are, therefore, subject to risks inherent in financing a limited number of projects. REITs depend generally on their ability to generate cash flow to make distributions to shareholders. In addition, the performance of a REIT may be affected by changes in the tax laws or by its failure to qualify for the dividends paid deduction.

Real estate assets are relatively illiquid and, therefore, the General Partner's ability to vary the Fund's portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions may be limited.

***The Fund may acquire direct or indirect interests in undeveloped land or underdeveloped real property, which may often be non-income producing.***

To the extent the Fund invests in entities that acquire, own, develop or re-develop or operate such assets, it will be subject to the risks normally associated with such assets and development activities. Such risks include, without limitation, risks relating to the availability and timely receipt of zoning and other regulatory or environmental approvals, the cost and timely completion of construction (including risks beyond the control of the Fund, such as weather or labor conditions or material shortages) and the availability of both construction and permanent financing on favorable terms. These risks could result in substantial unanticipated delays or expenses and, under certain circumstances, could prevent completion of development activities once undertaken, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Fund and on the amount of funds available for distribution to the Limited Partners. Properties owned by entities the Fund invests in that are under development or properties acquired for development may receive little or no cash flow from the date of acquisition through the date of completion of development and may experience operating deficits after the date of completion. In addition, market conditions may change during the course of development that make such development less attractive than at the time it was commenced.

In addition, investments in new development activities could be more susceptible to irregular accounting or other fraudulent practices. In the event of fraud by any company in which the Fund invests, the Fund may suffer a partial or total loss of capital invested in that company. There can be no assurance that any such losses will be offset by gains (if any) realized on the Fund's other investments.

***The Fund may make acquisitions of real estate-related assets and businesses which are distressed or experiencing or are expected to experience severe financial difficulties that may never be overcome.***

There may be little or no near-term cash flow available to the Limited Partners. Since the Fund may only acquire a limited number of assets and since many of the assets may involve a high degree of risk, poor performance by few of the assets could severely affect the total returns to the Limited Partners.

***The Fund may deploy capital in non-performing, sub-performing, distressed, undercapitalized or other troubled real estate and real estate-related assets, which may involve a high degree of financial risk. As a result of the speculative nature of the Fund's assets, the possibility of partial or total loss of capital will exist. Limited Partners should not subscribe to or participate in the Fund unless they can readily bear the consequences of such loss.***

Acquisitions made of assets operating in workout modes or under bankruptcy, insolvency or other debtor-protection codes could, if the Fund inappropriately exercises control over the management and policies of the debtors, be subordinated or disallowed, and the Fund could be liable to third parties in such circumstances.

Acquisitions of properties in workout modes or under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (or similar laws in other jurisdictions) are, in certain circumstances, subject to certain additional liabilities that may exceed the value of the Fund's contributed capital. For example, under certain circumstances, lenders who have inappropriately exercised control of the management and policies of a debtor may have their claims subordinated or disallowed or may be found liable for damages suffered by parties as a result of such actions. In addition, under certain circumstances, payments to the Fund and distributions by the Fund to its Limited Partners may be reclaimed if any such payment is later determined to have been a fraudulent conveyance or a preferential payment. Moreover, bankruptcy laws may delay the ability of the Fund to realize on collateral for loan positions held by it or may adversely affect the priority of such loans through doctrines such as equitable subordination. Bankruptcy laws may also result in a restructure of the debt without the Fund's consent under the

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

"cramdown" provisions of the bankruptcy laws and may also result in a discharge of all or part of the debt without payment to the Fund.

The Fund may acquire Portfolio Assets in underperforming or otherwise troubled assets or undercapitalized real estate companies which involve a degree of financial risk. The success of such Portfolio Assets may hinge on the General Partner's ability to reposition such assets so as to increase returns to the Fund. There can be no assurance the General Partner or the Fund will be successful in such endeavors.

***To the extent that the Fund acquires properties which have not yet achieved stabilization, it will be subject to the risks normally associated with unstabilized assets and development activities.***

Such risks include, without limitation, risks relating to the availability and timely receipt of zoning and other regulatory or environmental approvals, the cost and timely completion of construction (including risks beyond the control of the Fund, such as weather or labor conditions or material shortages), risks that the properties will not achieve anticipated occupancy levels or sustain anticipated rent levels and the availability of both construction and permanent financing on favorable terms. These risks could result in substantial unanticipated delays or expenses and, under certain circumstances, could prevent completion of development activities once undertaken, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Fund and on the amount of funds available for distribution to or redemption of the Partners. Properties under development or properties acquired for development may generate little or no cash flow from the date of acquisition through the date of completion of development and may experience operating deficits after the date of completion. In addition, (i) market conditions may change during the course of development, making such development less attractive than at the time it was commenced and (ii) Portfolio Assets in new development activities could be more susceptible to irregular accounting or other fraudulent practices. In the event of fraud by any entity in which the Fund participates, the Fund may suffer a partial or total loss of capital deployed in that entity. There can be no assurance that any such losses will be offset by gains (if any) realized on the Fund's other Portfolio Assets.

Furthermore, newly developed or newly renovated properties do not have the operating history that would allow the Fund to make objective pricing decisions in acquiring these properties, and the purchase prices of these properties are expected to be based upon projections as to the expected operating results of such properties, subjecting the Fund to risks that such properties may not achieve anticipated operating results or may not achieve these results within anticipated time frames. Additionally, development or re-development projects can carry an increased risk of litigation with contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, partners and others and may be financed under lines of credit or other forms of secured or unsecured financing.

***In connection with any new development project, expansion of a project or acquisition of a project in late-stage development, Portfolio Assets may also face construction risks typical for real estate businesses.***

Such risks include, without limitation, (i) labor disputes, shortages of material and skilled labor or work stoppages, (ii) slower than projected construction progress and the unavailability or late delivery of necessary equipment, (iii) less than optimal coordination with public utilities in the relocation of their facilities, (iv) adverse weather conditions and unexpected construction conditions, (v) accidents or the breakdown or failure of construction equipment or processes and (vi) catastrophic events such as explosions, fires and terrorist activities and other similar events usually beyond the Fund's control. These risks could result in substantial unanticipated delays or expenses and, under certain circumstances, could prevent completion of construction activities once undertaken, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Fund and on the amount of funds available for distribution to Limited Partners.

Construction costs may exceed estimates for various reasons including, for example, inaccurate project costing and unanticipated problems with a project start-up. Such unexpected cost increases may result in insufficient funds being available to complete construction. Such increases may result in the inability of project owners to meet the higher interest and principal repayments arising from the additional debt required. Delays in project completion can result in an increase in total project construction costs through higher capitalized interest charges and additional labor and material expenses and, consequently, an increase in debt service costs. It may also affect the scheduled flow of project revenues necessary to cover project related debt, operations and maintenance expenses and damage payments for late delivery. In addition, there are risks inherent in the construction work that may give rise to claims or demands against a Portfolio Asset.

Delays in the completion of any real estate project may result in lost opportunities or revenues or increased expenses, including higher operation and maintenance costs related to a Portfolio Asset. Portfolio Assets under development or acquired to be developed may receive little or no cash flow from the date of acquisition to the date of completion of development and may experience operating deficits after the date of completion. In addition, market conditions may change during the course of development, which may make such development less attractive than at the time it was commenced.

***The real estate industry generally and the success of the Fund's activities in particular will both be affected by general economic and market conditions in the U.S. economy and, to a lesser extent, the global economy generally, as well as by changes in applicable laws, trade barriers, currency exchange controls, the rate of inflation and local, national and international political and socioeconomic circumstances.***

These factors may affect the level and volatility of real estate prices, which could impair the Fund's profitability or result in losses. International political crises, such as the hostilities in Iran and Ukraine,may have indirect effects on U.S. markets, including through disruptions to equipment supply chains and energy related inputs relevant to solar projects and the real estate industry generally. In addition, general fluctuations in the market prices of securities and interest rates may affect the Fund's opportunities and the value of the Portfolio Assets. The Fund's financial condition may be adversely affected by a significant economic downturn and it may be subject to legal, regulatory, reputational and other unforeseen risks that could have a material adverse effect on particular Portfolio Assets, as well as the Fund's general businesses and operations.

A recession, slowdown and/or sustained downturn in the U.S. real estate market and, to a lesser extent, the global economy (or any particular segment thereof) will have a pronounced impact on the Fund and could adversely affect the Fund's profitability, impede the ability of Portfolio Assets to perform under or refinance their existing obligations and impair the Fund's ability to effectively deploy its capital or realize the investment on favorable terms. The Fund could also be affected by difficult conditions in the capital markets and any overall weakening of the financial services industry. It is possible that a weakening of credit markets could adversely affect the Limited Partners' funding obligations to the Fund and the Fund could suffer other adverse consequences, any of which could adversely affect the business of the Fund, restrict the Fund's activities and impede the Fund's ability to effectively achieve its objective.

The last global recession was prolonged and severe. CIM expects that another global recession would also have an adverse impact on the availability of credit to businesses generally. An economic downturn could adversely affect financial resources and the ability to make principal and interest payments on, or refinance, outstanding debt when due. In the event of such defaults, the Fund could lose both invested capital in and anticipated profits from the affected assets. Such marketplace events and certain adverse developments (including increased regulatory scrutiny of potential lenders) have also impacted, and may in the future impact, the availability and terms of financing for leveraged transactions, e.g., where regulators impose new or more burdensome capital or lending requirements on potential lenders. The inability of market participants to access capital to acquire real property restricts the ability to sell or liquidate assets and to refinance them. The Fund's ability to generate returns for its Limited Partners may be adversely affected to the extent another recession and its attendant adverse effects occur during the holding periods of the Fund's assets.

***The Fund's strategy in some Portfolio Assets may be based, in part, upon the premise that real estate businesses and assets in certain gateway cities and elsewhere will be available for purchase by the Fund at prices that the General Partner and the Manager consider favorable.***

No assurance can be given that real estate businesses and assets can be acquired or disposed of at favorable prices or that the market for such assets will remain stable, recover or continue to improve, as the case may be, since this will depend, in part, upon events and factors outside the control of the General Partner and the Manager. In addition, there can be no assurance that current market conditions will not deteriorate, which could have a materially adverse effect on the assets of the Fund. Actual or perceived trends in real estate markets do not guarantee, predict or forecast future events, which may differ significantly from those implied by such trends.

***General fluctuations in interest rates may adversely affect the value of the Portfolio Assets.***

Instability and volatility in interest rates may also increase the risks inherent in the Portfolio Assets. The ability to refinance debt may depend on the ability to sell new securities in the debt and equity markets, to borrow from banks or otherwise, which may not be achievable on favorable terms or at all. A deterioration of the global debt markets (particularly the U.S. debt markets), any possible future failures of financial services companies or a significant rise in market perception of counterparty default risk will likely significantly reduce demand and liquidity for senior bank high-yield and investment grade debt, which in turn is likely to lead some banks and other lenders to be unwilling or significantly less willing to finance new Portfolio Assets or to only offer financing for Portfolio Assets on less favorable terms than had been prevailing in the past. The Fund's ability to generate returns may be adversely affected to the extent the Fund is unable to obtain favorable financing terms for its Portfolio Assets. In the event that the Fund is unable to obtain debt financing for potential acquisitions or can only obtain debt at an increased interest rate or on unfavorable terms, the Fund may have difficulty completing otherwise profitable acquisitions or may generate profits that are lower than would otherwise be the case, either of which could lead to a decrease in the income earned. Similarly, CIM's funds historically have regularly utilized debt markets in order to obtain financing for their operations. A market turmoil may have an adverse

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

impact on the availability of credit to businesses generally, which in turn may adversely affect or restrict the ability of the Fund to sell or liquidate assets at favorable times or at favorable prices or which otherwise may have an adverse impact on the business and operations of the Fund. Interest rate changes may also affect the value of a debt instrument directly (in the case of adjustable rate instruments) or indirectly (in the case of fixed rate instruments). In general, rising interest rates will negatively impact the price of a fixed rate debt instrument and falling interest rates will have a positive effect on price. The U.S. Federal Reserve may at some point in the future tighten the monetary supply and increase benchmark interest rates, which would be expected to negatively impact the price of debt securities and could adversely affect the value of the Fund's assets.

***The military operations of the United States and its allies, the instability in various parts of the world and the increasing prevalence of terrorist attacks throughout the world could have significant adverse effects on the global economy.***

A terrorist attack involving a property owned by the Fund may result in liability far in excess of available insurance coverage and have adverse consequences for all assets. The Fund is expected to have significant holdings in large metropolitan areas. In the aftermath of a terrorist attack, tenants in these areas may choose to relocate their businesses to less populated, lower-profile areas of the United States that may be perceived to be less likely targets of future terrorist activity and fewer customers may choose to patronize businesses in these areas. This in turn would trigger a decrease in the demand for space in these areas, which could increase vacancies in the Fund's properties and force the Fund to lease space on less favorable terms. As a result, the value of the Fund's properties and the level of its revenues and cash flows could decline materially. The General Partner cannot predict the likelihood of these types of events occurring in the future or how such events may affect the Fund's assets.

***The long-term macroeconomic effects of pandemics or epidemics (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) could have a material adverse impact on our financial performance and the financial performance of our affiliates and our investments.***

While many of the direct impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have eased, the longer-term macroeconomic effects of pandemics and epidemics on global supply chains, inflation, labor shortages and wage pressures continue to affect many industries, including those of certain of our tenants.

Moreover, with the potential for new outbreaks or variants to emerge, governments and businesses may re-impose public health measures or other restrictions to slow the spread of disease. For these reasons, among others, the potential global impacts are uncertain and difficult to assess. Long-term macroeconomic effects of pandemics and epidemics, including supply and labor shortages, may materially adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows and the results of operations of our investments, and may adversely affect on our ability to source new investments and obtain financing.

***Inflation could have a pronounced negative impact on the Fund's mortgages and interest rates, the value of the Portfolio Assets and its general and administrative expenses, as these costs could increase at a rate higher than the rents collected at the Fund's properties.***

Inflation could also have an adverse effect on consumer spending, which could impact the sales of the Fund's tenants and, in turn, any percentage rents collected by the Fund, where applicable. The economy is currently experiencing the effects of inflation and the Fund and Portfolio Assets may experience the foregoing consequences and other related consequences. Conversely, deflation could lead to downward pressure on rents and other sources of income.

***The Fund may be exposed to substantial risk of loss arising from investments in Portfolio Assets involving undisclosed or unknown environmental problems, health or occupational safety matters or inadequate reserves, insurance or insurance proceeds for such matters that have been previously identified.***

Under the laws, rules and regulations of various jurisdictions, an owner of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances, including asbestos, on or in such property. Such laws may impose joint and several liability, which can result in a party being obligated to pay for greater than its share, or even all, of the liability involved. Such liability may also be imposed without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances and the person bearing liability may incur substantial costs in defending claims of liability. The cost of any required remediation and the owner's liability therefor as to any property are generally not limited under such laws and could exceed the value of the property and/or the aggregate assets of the owner. The presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate contamination from such substances, may adversely affect the Fund's ability to sell the real estate or to borrow funds using such property as collateral, which could have an adverse effect on the Fund's return from such Portfolio Asset. In addition, remediated property may attract a limited

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

number of potential purchasers because of the property's history of contamination, which might also adversely affect the owner's ability to lease and/or sell the property. Further, a transfer of property does not relieve from liability a person who owned the property at a time when hazardous or toxic substances were disposed of on, or released from, such property. Environmental claims with respect to a specific Portfolio Assets may exceed the value of such Portfolio Assets, and under certain circumstances, subject the other assets of the Fund to such liabilities. In addition, even in cases where the Fund is indemnified by the seller with respect to a Portfolio Assets against liabilities arising out of violations of environmental laws and regulations, there can be no assurance as to the financial viability of the seller to satisfy such indemnities or the ability of the Fund to achieve enforcement of such indemnities. Furthermore, some environmental laws create a lien on contaminated property in favor of governments or government agencies for costs they may incur in connection with the contamination.

Other laws and regulations govern indoor and outdoor air quality including those that can require the abatement or removal of asbestos-containing materials in the event of damage, demolition, renovation, and/or remodeling and also govern emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. The maintenance and removal of lead paint and certain electrical equipment containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and underground storage tanks are also regulated by federal and state laws. The Fund will also be subject to risks associated with human exposure to chemical and/or biological contaminants such as molds, pollens, viruses and bacteria which, above certain levels, can be alleged to be connected to allergic or other health effects and symptoms in susceptible individuals. The Fund could incur fines for environmental compliance and be held liable for the costs of remedial action with respect to the foregoing regulated substances or tanks or related claims arising out of environmental contamination and/or human exposure to contamination at or from the Fund's properties.

The ongoing presence of environmental contamination, pollutants or other hazardous materials on a property (whether known at the time of acquisition or not) could also result in personal injury (and associated liability) to persons on the property and persons removing such materials, future or continuing property damage (which may adversely affect property value) or claims by third parties, including as a result of exposure to such materials through the spread of contaminants. In addition, the Fund's operating costs and performance may be adversely affected by compliance obligations under environmental protection statutes, rules and regulations relating to Portfolio Assets, including additional compliance obligations arising from any change to such statutes, rules and regulations. Statutes, rules and regulations may also restrict development of, and use of, property. Certain clean-up actions brought by state, country and local agencies and private parties may also impose obligations in relation to Portfolio Assets and result in additional costs to the Fund.

Additionally, there has been litigation and concern about indoor exposure to certain types of toxic mold, and it is impossible to eliminate all mold and mold spores in the indoor environment. The continued presence of certain types of toxic mold could materially decrease property values, cause the Fund to incur substantial remediation costs and lead to an increased risk of lawsuits by affected persons.

Further, even in cases where the Fund is indemnified by the seller with respect to an asset against environmental liabilities, including liabilities arising out of violations of environmental laws and regulations, there can be no assurance as to the financial viability of the seller to satisfy such indemnities or the ability of the Fund to achieve enforcement of such indemnities.

***Environmental conditions that may exist or arise in the future associated with assets outside the United States may give rise to similar, and possibly more onerous, risks and obligations under current or future legal standards and requirements in such jurisdictions.***

Prior to closing any new property acquisition, the Fund may, if appropriate, obtain such environmental assessments as may be prudent in order to attempt to identify potential environmental concerns at such properties. These assessments will be carried out in accordance with accepted industry practices and generally may include, depending on the circumstances presented, a physical site inspection, a review of relevant federal, state and local environmental and health agency database records, one or more interviews with appropriate site-related personnel, review of the property's chain of title and review of historic aerial photographs.

***The acquisition, ownership and disposition of real properties carry certain other specific litigation risks.***

Litigation may be commenced with respect to a property acquired by the Fund or its subsidiaries in relation to activities that took place prior to the Fund's acquisition of such property. In addition, at the time of disposition of an individual property, a potential buyer may claim that it should have been afforded the opportunity to purchase the asset, or, alternatively, that such potential buyer should be awarded due diligence expenses incurred or statutory damages for misrepresentation relating to disclosure made, if such buyer is passed over in favor of another as part of the Fund's efforts

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

to maximize sale proceeds. Similarly, successful buyers may later sue the Fund under various damage theories, including those sounding in tort for losses associated with latent defects or other problems not uncovered in due diligence.

***Failure to obtain required approvals and/or licenses necessary to acquire or operate real properties may adversely impact its strategy.***

The Fund or its affiliates may be required to obtain various approvals and/or licenses from federal or state governmental authorities, government sponsored entities or similar bodies in connection with some or all of its real estate-related activities including, without limitation, zoning, environmental or construction-related licenses and/or approvals. There is no assurance that the Fund or its affiliates can obtain any or all of these approvals and licenses or that it will avoid experiencing significant delays in seeking such approvals and licenses. Furthermore, the Fund or its affiliate will be subject to various disclosure and other requirements to obtain and maintain these approvals and licenses, and there is no assurance that those requirements will be satisfied. Failure to obtain or maintain licenses will restrict the Fund's options and ability to engage in desired activities, and could subject it to fines, suspensions, terminations and various other adverse actions if it is determined that the Fund has engaged without the requisite approvals or licenses in activities that required an approval or license.

***The real estate industry is extensively regulated and subject to frequent regulatory change.***

The adoption of new legislation or changes to, or new interpretations of, existing laws can have a significant impact on methods and costs of doing business and reimbursement amounts from governmental and other agencies. The real estate industry is, and will continue to be, subject to varying degrees of regulation and licensing by federal, state and local regulatory authorities in various states and localities. Delay in obtaining or failure to obtain and maintain in full force and effect any regulatory approvals, or amendments thereto, or delay or failure to satisfy any regulatory conditions or other applicable requirements could prevent operation of a facility or sales to third parties or could result in additional costs to a Portfolio Asset and/or the Fund.

Additionally, where a property or portfolio entity holds a concession or lease from the government, the concession or lease may restrict the Fund's ability to operate the property or portfolio entity in a way that maximizes cash flows and profitability. The lease or concession may also contain clauses more favorable to the government counterparty than a typical commercial contract. For instance, the lease or concession may enable the government to terminate the lease or concession in certain circumstances without requiring payment of adequate compensation.

***Certain properties or related real estate assets in which the Fund deploys capital, especially those that have not yet achieved stabilization, may be expected to require additional financing to satisfy their working capital requirements, development requirements and/or acquisition strategies.***

The amount of such additional financing needed will depend upon the maturity and objectives of the particular asset. If the funds provided are not sufficient, the Fund may have to raise additional capital from existing or new Limited Partners. In addition, the Fund may make additional debt and/or equity Portfolio Assets and/or exercise warrants, options or convertible securities that were acquired in the initial acquisition of such asset in order to preserve the Fund's proportionate ownership or to protect such Portfolio Asset when a subsequent financing is planned or when such asset's performance does not meet expectations. The availability of capital is generally a function of capital market conditions that are beyond the control of the Fund or any Portfolio Asset. There can be no assurance that the General Partner will be able to predict accurately the future capital requirements necessary for the success of a particular Portfolio Asset or that additional funds therefor will be available from any source.

***The Fund may hold a non-controlling interest in certain Portfolio Assets and, therefore, may have a limited ability to protect its position in such Portfolio Assets.***

The Fund's control over the policies of such Portfolio Assets may be limited. This could result in the Fund's holdings being frozen in minority positions that incur substantial losses. In such cases, the Fund will be significantly reliant on the other sponsors of the transaction, if any, and on the existing management and board of directors of such companies, which may include representation of other financial participants with whom the Fund is or is not affiliated and whose interests may conflict with the interests of the Fund. The Fund may co-invest with Limited Partners, third parties or affiliated entities through joint ventures or other entities. Such holdings may involve risks in connection with such Limited Partners, third-party or affiliate involvement including, without limitation, the possibility that a co-venturer may have financial, legal and/or regulatory difficulties resulting in a negative impact on such holding, may have economic and/or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with those of the Fund or may be in a position to take (or block) action in a manner contrary to the Fund's objective. These and other problems, including the deterioration of the business relationship between CIM

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

and the co-venturer, could have a material adverse effect on any such Portfolio Asset and the Fund. In addition, the Fund may in certain circumstances be liable for the actions of its co-venturers. While the General Partner will review the qualifications and previous experience of co-venturers or partners, the selection of a co-venturer is inherently based on subjective criteria with the result that the performance and abilities of a particular co-venturer will be difficult to assess. In addition, the General Partner does not expect to obtain financial information from, or to undertake private investigations with respect to, prospective co-venturers or partners. In those circumstances where such third parties involve a management group or strategic participant, such third parties may receive compensation arrangements relating to such assets, including incentive compensation arrangements. Additionally, the use of grants or other tax-related incentives may be limited in the case of minority or non-controlling interests.

In certain other Portfolio Assets, the Fund may exercise control. The exercise of control over an entity can impose additional risks of liability for environmental damage, failure to supervise management, violation of government regulations (including securities laws) or other types of liability in which the limited liability characteristics of business ownership may be ignored. If these liabilities were to arise, the Fund might suffer a significant loss.

Although non-control acquisitions may also be made (as noted above), the Fund generally intends to acquire Portfolio Assets from time to time that allow the Fund to acquire control or exercise influence over management and the strategic direction of Portfolio Assets. The exercise of control over Portfolio Assets imposes additional risks of liability for environmental damage, workplace accidents, failure to supervise management and other types of liability in which the limited liability characteristic of business operations generally may be ignored or not respected. The exercise of control over a Portfolio Asset could expose the assets of the Fund to claims related to such Portfolio Asset, its shareholders and/or its creditors. While the General Partner intends to manage the Fund in a manner that will minimize the exposure of these risks, the possibility of successful claims cannot be precluded.

***Capital and credit market conditions may adversely affect demand for our properties and the overall availability and cost of credit.***

In periods when the capital and credit markets experience significant volatility, demand for our properties and the overall availability and cost of credit may be adversely affected. No assurances can be given that the capital and credit market conditions will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or to maintain our level of distributions on our Units.

In addition, we could be adversely affected by significant volatility in the capital and credit markets as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the tenants in our office properties may experience a deterioration in their sales or other revenue, or experience a constraint on the availability of credit necessary to fund operations, which in turn may adversely impact those tenants' ability to pay contractual base rents and tenant recoveries. Some tenants may terminate their occupancy due to an inability to operate profitably for an extended period of time, impacting our ability to maintain occupancy levels; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• constraints on the availability of credit to tenants, necessary to purchase and install improvements, fixtures and equipment and to fund business expenses, could impact our ability to procure new tenants for spaces currently vacant in existing office properties or properties under development.

Turmoil in credit markets globally could cause uncertainty that may cause financial institutions to reduce their lending, which in turn could adversely affect our ability to access capital markets for our liquidity needs and/or cause our cost of capital to increase.

We will endeavor to limit uninsured deposits that we have with banks. Nevertheless, if a bank in which we hold funds fails or is subject to significant adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets, we could be subject to a risk of loss of all or a portion of such funds or be subject to a delay in accessing all or a portion of such uninsured funds. Any such loss of funds on deposit, lack of access to funds held at banks could adversely impact our short-term liquidity and ability to meet our operating expenses or working capital needs.

***Uninsured losses or losses in excess of our insurance coverage could materially adversely affect our financial condition and cash flows, and there can be no assurance as to future costs and the scope of coverage that may be available under insurance policies.***

We carry commercial liability, special form/all risk and business interruption insurance on all of the properties in our portfolio. In addition, we carry directors' and officers' insurance. While we select policy specifications and insured limits

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

that we believe are appropriate and adequate given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage, and industry practice, there can be no assurance that we will not experience a loss that is uninsured or that exceeds policy limits.

Our business operations in California and Texas are susceptible to, and could be significantly affected by, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, wind, blizzards, floods, landslides, drought and fires. These adverse weather conditions and natural disasters could cause significant damage to the properties in our portfolio, the risk of which is enhanced by the concentration of our properties, by aggregate net operating income and square feet, in California. Our insurance may not be adequate to cover business interruption or losses resulting from adverse weather or natural disasters. We carry earthquake insurance on our properties in California in an amount and with deductibles and limitations that we deem to be appropriate. However, the amount of our earthquake insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover losses from earthquakes in California. Furthermore, we may not carry insurance for certain losses, such as those caused by war or certain environmental conditions, such as mold or asbestos.

As a result of the factors described above, we may not have sufficient coverage against all losses that we may experience for any reason.

If we experience a loss that is uninsured or that exceeds policy limits, we could incur significant costs and lose the capital deployed in the damaged properties as well as the anticipated future cash flows from those properties. Further, if the damaged properties are subject to recourse indebtedness, we would continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if the properties were irreparable. In addition, our properties may not be able to be rebuilt to their existing height or size at their existing location under current land-use laws and policies. In the event that we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of one of our properties, we may not be able to rebuild such property to its existing specifications and otherwise may have to upgrade such property to meet current code requirements. Any of the factors described above could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations or to maintain our level of distributions on our Units.

**Certain Risks Relating to Infrastructure Portfolio Assets**

***Investment in infrastructure assets involves many significant relatively unique and acute risks.***

Project revenues can be affected by a number of factors including economic and market conditions, political events, competition, regulation and the financial position and business strategy of customers. Unanticipated changes in the availability or price of inputs necessary for the operation of infrastructure assets may adversely affect the overall profitability of the investment or related project. Events outside the control of a Portfolio Asset, such as political action, governmental regulation, demographic changes, economic growth, increasing fuel prices, government macroeconomic policies, toll rates, social stability, competition from untolled or other forms of transportation, natural disasters, changes in weather, changes in demand for products or services, bankruptcy or financial difficulty of a major customer and/or acts of war or terrorism, could significantly reduce the revenues generated or significantly increase the expense of constructing, operating, maintaining or restoring infrastructure facilities. In turn, this may impair a Portfolio Asset's ability to repay its debt or make distributions to the Fund or even result in termination of an applicable concession or other agreement. As a general matter, the operation and maintenance of infrastructure assets or businesses involve various risks and is subject to substantial regulation (as described below), many of which may not be under the control of the owner/operator, including labor issues, failure of technology to perform as anticipated, structural failures and accidents and the need to comply with the directives of government authorities. Although Portfolio Assets may maintain insurance to protect against certain risks, where available on reasonable commercial terms (such as business interruption insurance that is intended to offset loss of revenues during an operational interruption), such insurance is subject to customary deductibles and coverage limits and may not be sufficient to recoup all of a Portfolio Asset's losses.

***Investments in infrastructure assets are generally less liquid and involve a longer holding period than traditional private equity investments, which are themselves often considered illiquid and long-term.***

Moreover, investments in unlisted companies can be difficult to realize. Although investments by the Fund are expected to generate some current income, the return of capital and the realization of gains, if any, from an investment may only occur upon the disposition of such investment. While an investment may be sold at any time, it is generally expected that this will not occur for a number of years after the investment is made. Therefore, no assurance can be given that, if the Fund is determined to dispose of a particular investment held by the Fund, it could dispose of such investment at a prevailing market price, and there is a risk that disposition of such investments may require a lengthy time period or may result in distributions in kind to investors. The Fund will generally not be able to sell its investments through the public markets unless their sale is registered under applicable securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration requirements is available. Additionally, there can be no assurances that investments can be sold on a private basis. In

------

addition, in some cases the Fund may be prohibited by contract or legal or regulatory reasons from selling certain securities for a period of time. Furthermore, infrastructure investments by their nature are subject to industry cyclicality, downturns in demand, market disruptions and the lack of available capital for potential purchasers and are therefore often difficult or time consuming to liquidate.

***Some or all of the Fund's investments may be subject to the risks inherent in the ownership and operation of assets or business that derive a substantial amount of their value from real estate and real estate-related interests.***

These types of underlying interests are typically illiquid. Deterioration of real estate fundamentals may negatively impact the performance of such investments. Such changes in fundamentals could involve fluctuations as a result of general and local economic conditions, overbuilding and increased competition, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, changes in environmental and zoning laws, casualty or condemnation losses, environmental liability, regulatory limitations on rents, changes in neighborhood values, changes in the appeal of properties to tenants, the availability of mortgage funds which may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or impracticable, natural disasters, increase in interest rates and/or other factors that are beyond the control of the General Partner.

Additionally, the Fund may acquire assets in jurisdictions where indigenous rights (e.g., with respect to tribes or other dispossessed people/communities) to land exist. While the Fund will generally conduct due diligence in such jurisdictions to determine the extent to which it may be affected by such rights, it may not be possible to mitigate against or remove a risk associated with indigenous claims. Additionally, any declaration of title in respect of government protected land on which infrastructure assets are located may negatively affect the operation of those businesses.

***In many instances, the operation or acquisition of infrastructure assets involves an ongoing commitment to or from a governmental agency.***

The nature of these obligations and dependencies exposes the owners of infrastructure assets to a higher level of regulatory control than typically imposed on other businesses, especially given that governmental entities have considerable discretion to change or increase regulation of the operations of portfolio investments, or to implement laws, regulations or policies affecting their operations, separate from any contractual rights that the government counterparties may have. The Fund may not receive the initial regulatory approval needed to acquire or operate an investment, including after the Fund has incurred substantial costs pursuing such investment. Additional or unanticipated regulatory approvals, including renewals, extensions, transfers, assignments, reissuances or similar actions, may be required to acquire or operate infrastructure assets, and additional approvals may become applicable in the future due to a change in laws and/or regulations, a change in the Portfolio Asset's customer(s), desire to expand the Portfolio Asset's business or other reasons. Furthermore, permits or special rulings may be required with respect to taxation, financial and regulatory-related issues. There can be no assurance that a Portfolio Asset will be able to (i) obtain all required regulatory approvals that it does not yet have or that it may require in the future, (ii) obtain any necessary modifications to existing regulatory approvals and/or (iii) maintain required regulatory approvals. Delay in obtaining or failure to obtain and maintain in full force and effect any regulatory approvals, or amendments thereto, or delay or failure to satisfy any regulatory conditions or other applicable requirements could prevent operation of a facility or sales to third parties or could result in additional costs to a Portfolio Asset and the Fund.

Additionally, where a Portfolio Asset holds a concession or lease from the government, the concession or lease may restrict the Portfolio Asset's ability to operate the business in a way that maximizes cash flows and profitability. The lease or concession may also contain clauses more favorable to the government counterparty than a typical commercial contract. For instance, the lease or concession may enable the government to terminate the lease or concession in certain circumstances without requiring payment of adequate compensation.

Even though most permits and licenses are obtained prior to the commencement of full project operations, many of these licenses and permits are required to be maintained over the project's life. If a Portfolio Asset fails to comply with these regulations or contractual obligations, it could be subject to monetary penalties or the Fund may lose its right to operate the affected Portfolio Asset, or both. Regulators may impose conditions on the operations and activities of the Fund's Portfolio Assets as a condition to granting its approval or to satisfy regulatory requirements, which may limit the activities of the Fund's Portfolio Assets. In addition, the relevant governmental agencies may impose conditions of ongoing ownership or equivalent restrictions on the Fund in respect of the underlying infrastructure assets.

***The successful development and construction of new or expansion infrastructure projects entails a variety of risks (some of which may be unforeseeable at the time a project is commenced) and may require or result in the involvement of a broad and diverse group of stakeholders who will either directly influence or potentially be capable of influencing the nature and outcome of the project.***

Such factors may include, but are not limited to: political or local opposition, receipt of regulatory approvals or permits, site or land procurement, environmentally related issues, construction risks and delays (such as late delivery of necessary equipment), labor disputes (such as work stoppages), counterparty non-performance, project feasibility assessment, less than optimal coordination with public utilities in the relocation of their facilities, dealings with and reliance on third-party consultants, slower than projected construction progress and/or the unavailability or late delivery of necessary equipment, legal action from special interest groups, adverse weather conditions and unexpected construction conditions. These risks could result in substantial unanticipated delays or expenses and, under certain circumstances, could prevent completion of construction activities once undertaken, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Fund. When making a portfolio investment, value may be ascribed to infrastructure projects (new or expansion) that do not achieve successful implementation, potentially resulting in a lower than expected returns over the life of the investment. In addition, there are significant capital expenditures associated with the development and operating costs of infrastructure assets generally. Construction costs may exceed estimates for various reasons, including but not limited to inaccurate engineering and planning, labor and building material costs in excess of expectations and unanticipated problems with project start-up. Delays in project completion can result in an increase in total project construction costs through higher capitalized interest charges and additional labor and material expenses and, consequently, an increase in debt service costs and insufficient funds to complete construction. Delays may also result in adverse effects on the scheduled flow of project revenues necessary to cover the scheduled operations-phase debt service costs, lost opportunities, increased operations and maintenance expenses, and/or damage payments for late delivery. Investments under development or investments acquired to be developed may receive little or no cash flow from the date of acquisition through the date of completion of development and may experience operating deficits after the date of completion. Market conditions may change during the course of development that makes such development less attractive than at the time it was commenced.

***The operations of infrastructure assets and businesses are exposed to unplanned interruptions caused by significant catastrophic events, such as cyclones, earthquakes, landslides, floods, explosions, fires, terrorist attacks, major plant breakdowns, pipeline or electricity line ruptures or other disasters.***

Operational disruption, as well as supply disruption, could adversely impact the cash flows available from these assets. In addition, the cost of repairing or replacing damaged assets could be considerable. Repeated or prolonged interruption may result in permanent loss of customers, substantial litigation and/or penalties for regulatory or contractual non-compliance. Moreover, any loss from such events may not be recoverable under relevant insurance policies. Business interruption insurance is not always available, or economical, to protect the business from these risks. Industrial action involving employees or third parties may also disrupt the operations of infrastructure projects. Infrastructure projects are exposed to the risk of accidents that may give rise to personal injury, loss of life, damage to property, disruption to service and/or economic loss.

***Demand, usage, and throughput risk can affect the performance of infrastructure assets.***

To the extent that the Fund's assumptions regarding demand, usage, and/or throughput prove incorrect, returns to the Fund could be adversely affected. Some of the portfolio investments may be subject to seasonal variations, including greater revenues and profitability during different seasons of the year. Accordingly, the Fund's operating results for any particular portfolio investment in any particular quarter may not be indicative of the results that can be expected for that portfolio investment throughout the year.

Moreover, Portfolio Assets may face competition from other infrastructure assets in the vicinity of the assets they operate. If Portfolio Assets are unable to compete successfully with such alternatives, the Fund's business, financial condition, and/or results of operation could be materially and adversely affected.

***Certain infrastructure assets may be subject to rate regulations that determine or limit the prices they may charge, particularly if a Portfolio Asset is the sole or predominant service provider in its service area or provides services that are essential to the community.***

Unfavorable price determinations that may be final with no right of appeal or that, despite a right of appeal, could result in a Portfolio Asset's profits being negatively affected and it not meeting initial return expectations. In particular, some Portfolio Assets may derive substantially all their revenues from collecting tolls from vehicles using roads, tunnels or bridges or from subway fares. Users of the toll roads, bridges, tunnels, railroads, and subways may react negatively to any

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

adjustments to the applicable rates, for example by avoiding tolls or refusing to pay tolls, resulting in lower traffic volumes and reduced revenues. Toll rates and subway fares are typically set by the relevant concession company and the relevant governmental entity. Adverse public opinion, or lobbying efforts by specific interest groups, could result in governmental pressure on portfolio investments to reduce their rates or fares or to forgo planned rate or fare increases.

The relevant governmental entities may seek to limit the Fund's ability to increase, or may seek to reduce, toll rates and fares as a result of factors such as general economic conditions in the country, negative consumer perceptions, the prevailing rate of inflation, traffic volume, and general public sentiment. Furthermore, the General Partner cannot guarantee that governmental entities with which Portfolio Assets have concession agreements will not try to exempt certain vehicle or passenger types from tolls or fares or negotiate lower toll or fare rates. If public pressure and/or government action forces Portfolio Assets to restrict their toll or fare rate increases or reduce their toll or fare rates, and they are not able to secure adequate compensation to restore the economic balance of the relevant concession agreement, the Fund's business, financial condition, and/or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

***The success of public infrastructure projects is often dependent on governmental funding or subsidies.***

Governments typically have considerable discretion in determining the amount of funding or subsidies to allocate to such public infrastructure projects. Lack of governmental funding or subsidies due to governmental budgetary constraints could adversely impact the overall development and availability of public infrastructure projects, result in privatization of certain types of assets, and/or otherwise result in an increase in competition among other providers of capital (e.g., private infrastructure investors) for such infrastructure assets, which may make it more difficult for the Fund to effectively consummate investments in or relating to such infrastructure projects.

***Investments in renewable energy and related businesses and/or assets historically have received support from national, state and local governments and regulatory agencies intended to finance or otherwise facilitate their development; however, such support may not be available in the future.***

Investments in renewable energy have historically received support in the U.S., but the extent of such support is variable and subject to change. Similar programs and initiatives may exist in certain jurisdictions, which may have more variable views on policies regarding renewable energy (and, for example, may be more willing or likely to reverse or alter such initiatives in favor of more carbon-intensive forms of traditional energy generation). The combined effect of these programs is to partially subsidize the development, ownership and operation of renewable energy projects, particularly in an environment where the low cost of fossil fuel may otherwise make the cost of producing energy from renewable sources uneconomic. The operation and financial performance of any renewable energy investment may be materially dependent on governmental policies and regulatory frameworks that support renewable energy sources. There can be no assurance that government support for renewable energy will continue, that favorable legislation will be enacted or remain in effect, or that the electricity produced by the renewable energy investments will continue to qualify for support under applicable renewable portfolio standards or similar programs. The elimination, or reduction of government policies that support renewable energy could have a material adverse effect on the Fund's renewable energy investments' financial condition or results of operations. To the extent that tax credits (including as a result of the OBBBA), other favorable tax treatment or other forms of governmental support for renewable energy are modified, reduced or eliminated, the Fund's renewable energy investments may be materially adversely affected.

***The market for renewable energy products is emerging and rapidly evolving, and its future success is uncertain.***

If renewable energy technologies in which the Fund invest prove less commercially viable as a result of new technologies that are more efficient, the investments could be unable to generate enough revenue to achieve and sustain profitability. In addition, demand for renewable products in the markets and geographic regions that the Fund targets may not develop or may develop more slowly than anticipated. Many factors will influence the widespread adoption of renewable energy technology and demand for renewable energy products, including the cost-effectiveness, performance and reliability of renewable energy technology and the availability of government subsidies and incentives. In particular, the wholesale market price for renewable energy could be impacted by a number of factors beyond our control. The projects in which we invest may seek to lock in renewable energy prices by entering into long term off-take contracts with purchasers, but those contracts may prove not to be as attractive as spot market prices that could be obtained in the future. The projects in which the Fund invests may also enter into off-take agreements that are subject to re-contracting in the future. If the price of electricity in power markets is declining at the time of such re-contracting, it may impact our ability to re-negotiate or replace these contracts on terms that are acceptable to us. Conversely, what appears to be an attractive price at the time of contracting or re-contracting could, if power prices rise over the power purchase agreement's term, result in us having committed to sell power in the future at below market rate. In the event that an off-take counterparty

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

fails to perform its obligations under a contract with us, market rates at the time we seek to replace the counterparty may not be as attractive as the original contract.

***The amount, timing and cost of generating electricity from renewable energy resources may not meet expectations and may vary significantly from period to period.***

Unfavorable solar or wind conditions, or other energy resources replenished by a natural process, may cause project facilities to not meet anticipated generation levels or the rated capacity of its generation assets. The intermittent nature of renewable energy resources and the irregular generation levels may adversely affect the Fund's results from operations and cash flows from renewable energy investments.

***Renewable energy technology may become obsolete.***

The renewable energy industry is subject to continual technological innovation. Renewable energy products and services interact with a variety of hardware and software technology systems and devices. An investment may be required to implement new technologies or adapt existing technologies in response to changing market conditions, customer preferences, industry standards or inability to secure necessary intellectual property licenses, which could require significant capital expenditures. It is also possible that one or more of a portfolio company's competitors could develop a significant technological advantage that allows them to provide additional or superior products or services, or to lower their price for similar products or services, that could put an investment at a competitive disadvantage. The inability to adapt to changing technologies, market conditions or customer preferences in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Fund's investment strategy, business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

***The widespread deployment of energy storage technologies is still a nascent market. Market rules and structures to compensate energy storage projects for the provision of grid services, load shift, transmission and distribution deferral and defrayal, among other potential sources of value, may not provide sufficient revenue relative to cover the cost of investment.***

Growth in the energy storage market is highly dependent on a continued decline in battery prices as batteries represent the largest component of system cost. Any disruption in the supply of batteries resulting in higher than expected battery pricing or stagnation in the level of price declines for batteries could result in slower than expected growth in the Fund's target markets and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on investments. The financial performance of the Fund will depend on the maturation of the energy storage market and the ability of the Fund to defray costs associated with energy storage investments.

Further, many energy storage products make use of lithium-ion batteries, which have been observed in certain applications, such as automotive applications, to catch fire or vent smoke and flame. Such events have raised concerns, and future events may lead to additional concerns, about the safety of lithium-ion batteries. Negative public perceptions regarding the suitability of lithium-ion batteries for energy storage applications or any future incident involving lithium-ion batteries, even if such incident does not involve an investment or relate to an application other than energy storage, could negatively impact the continued adoption of energy storage products and have a material adverse impact on investments.

**Certain Risks Relating to the Operations of the Fund**

***An affiliate of CIM has entered into a credit facility that is secured by a pledge of, among other things, the Manager's right to receive management fees from various funds for which it serves as manager and/or operator and various CIM affiliates' right to receive carried interest from such funds.***

Such credit facility may also be secured by the right to receive management fees by the Manager, the right to receive carried interest by the General Partner, the limited partnership interest held by the General Partner and any limited partnership interest held by the General Partner or its affiliates. Such credit facility is not expected to be recourse to the Fund or its assets or to Limited Partners not affiliated with the General Partner and is not expected to, but may be secured by a pledge of the General Partner's right to distributions from interest as general partner in the Fund. The lender under such credit facility is not expected to have the right to assume, direct, exercise or enforce the General Partner's rights or responsibilities as general partner of the Fund. The credit facility contains restrictions on CIM's ability to decrease, cancel or terminate certain management fees and, following the Initial Closing, these restrictions may apply to the management fees, and CIM may further agree not to amend, or consent to any amendment of, the Partnership Agreement in any manner that would materially decrease, cancel or terminate any management fees or other fees payable to the Manager or any carried interest payable to the General Partner.

***If the Fund acquires a Portfolio Asset in a transaction with the intent of refinancing a portion of that Portfolio Asset, there is a risk that the Fund will be unable to complete the refinancing successfully.***

There is also a risk that certain Portfolio Assets with financing in place may be difficult or impossible to refinance when the loan matures. The inability to complete a refinancing or to complete one as quickly as originally planned would lead to increased risk as a result of the Fund having a larger long-term outlay than expected and reduced diversification. In addition, if a loan matured before refinancing could be procured, the lender could foreclose on the collateral and the Fund might suffer losses as a result of that foreclosure. Further, particularly for large properties in metropolitan areas and other strategic assets, lenders may require insurance against terrorist acts or other events that may be either uninsurable or insurable only at high rates, and the unavailability of such insurance may make it difficult to finance or refinance certain Portfolio Assets.

***The Fund may use a substantial amount of leverage in connection with its Portfolio Assets, including for making distributions to Limited Partners.***

This leverage may subject such assets to restrictive financial and operating covenants, which may impair the ability for such assets to finance their future operations and capital needs and/or limit their flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions. While leverage presents opportunities for increasing the Fund's total return, the ability of the Fund to achieve its stated targeted returns may be linked to the Fund's ability to locate and obtain leverage at appropriate levels and costs. Furthermore, while the use of leverage may enhance returns and increase the number of acquisitions that can be made, it may potentially increase losses as well. The cumulative effect of the use of leverage by the Fund in a market that moves adversely to the Fund's assets could result in a loss to the Fund that would be greater than if leverage had not been used. Leverage will increase the exposure of such assets to adverse economic factors such as significantly rising interest rates, economic downturns, and/or deteriorations in the condition of the real estate asset or its market. The net income and net assets of a leveraged entity (such as the Fund) will tend to increase or decrease at a greater rate than if borrowed money were not used. Lenders or other holders of senior positions will be entitled to a preferred cash flow prior to the Fund receiving a return on leveraged assets, and, in the event an asset is unable to generate sufficient cash flow to meet the principal and/or interest payments on its indebtedness, the value of the Fund's Portfolio Assets could be significantly reduced or even eliminated. Also, if a property or properties are mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and such mortgage payments are not made, the property or properties could be foreclosed upon by the mortgagee or otherwise transferred to the mortgagee.

The Fund may also engage in financings directly at the fund level (rather than at the level of the particular vehicles or entities through which the Fund deploys capital). The rights of any lenders making loans directly to the Fund to receive payments of interest or repayments of principal will be senior to those of the Limited Partners, and the terms of any borrowings may contain provisions that limit distributions to the Limited Partners or certain other activities of the Fund. Payments of interest and fees incurred in connection with the borrowings will reduce any income the Fund would otherwise have available. The Fund's obligations to make interest and/or principal payments on borrowings may prevent the Fund from taking advantage of attractive opportunities. In addition, if the Fund does not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, it may not be able to repay borrowings or it may be forced to sell Portfolio Assets at disadvantageous times to repay borrowings. If a default occurs under a financing, the lender may demand payment and pursue other remedies (such as foreclosure of any collateral) if payment is not made. Defaults may result from a number of potential issues including, without limitation, the inability or failure to comply with financial covenants. The Fund's performance may be adversely affected if it is not able to repay borrowings at maturity (because of the continuing interest expense) and/or if it is forced to sell Portfolio Assets at disadvantageous times in order to repay borrowings. Moreover, in these circumstances, the Fund would likely sell its more liquid assets first to repay borrowings, thus increasing its concentration of Portfolio Assets that are not liquid or readily marketable. If the Fund engages in financings where several assets are cross-collateralized, the Fund could lose its interests in performing Portfolio Assets in the event such performing Portfolio Assets are cross-collateralized with poorly performing Portfolio Assets.

Leveraging the Fund's assets will involve significant complexity. Any recurrence of the significant contraction in the market for debt financing that occurred in 2008 and 2009 or other adverse changes relating to the terms of such debt financing with, for example, higher interest rates and/or more restrictive covenants, particularly in the area of acquisition financings for real estate-related transactions, may significantly affect the Fund's ability to obtain favorable financing terms for its Portfolio Assets, which may adversely affect the Fund's ability to generate returns for the Limited Partners. In the event that the Fund is unable to obtain committed debt financing for potential acquisitions or can only obtain debt at an increased interest rate or on other unfavorable terms, the Fund may have difficulty completing otherwise profitable acquisitions or may generate profits that are lower than would otherwise be the case, either of which could lead to a decrease in the income earned by the Limited Partners. There can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to obtain

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

financing and, to the extent that it is available, there can be no assurance that such financing will be on terms favorable to the Fund, including with respect to interest rates or other material terms. The failure of the Fund to obtain financing on favorable terms (or at all) could adversely affect the returns of the Fund.

Borrowings under a proposed credit facility may be secured, among other things, by the Limited Partners' interests in the Fund and their obligations to make capital contributions to the Fund. Any inability of the Fund to repay such borrowings could enable a lender to call capital from the Limited Partners and to take action against the Limited Partners and their interests in the Fund to the extent that such Limited Partners fail to fund any such capital call. In connection with the foregoing, the General Partner will have the right to agree (i) to subordinate distributions to the Limited Partners to payments required in connection with any borrowings, guarantees or other extensions of credit and (ii) that during the term of any borrowings or guarantees, the Fund will not initiate bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution proceedings or any analogous proceedings without the consent of any lender to the Fund. The use of such leverage may limit a Limited Partner's ability to use its interests in the Fund as collateral for its other indebtedness.

In addition, the Fund may pledge its (or its subsidiaries') rights in the Portfolio Assets as collateral or security for any financing incurred by the Fund. Any inability of the Fund to repay such borrowings could enable a lender to exercise with respect to the Portfolio Asset which may result in the Fund losing control of such Portfolio Asset and could adversely affect the returns of the Fund. A lender exercising its rights in a foreclosure scenario does not owe any fiduciary duty to the Fund and therefore may make decisions harmful to the underlying obligor, the Limited Partners and the Fund.

***In the event that a Limited Partner defaults with respect to any portion of its Capital Commitment, such Limited Partner will be subject to the default remedies set forth in the applicable Agreement, including forfeiture of its voting rights and a substantial portion of its interest in the Fund and/or the cancellation of its Undrawn Commitment.***

If the payments made by non-Defaulting Limited Partners (as defined below) and borrowings by the Fund are inadequate to cover the defaulted amounts, the Fund may not be able to pay its obligations when due and may be subject to significant penalties that could limit opportunities for diversification and materially adversely affect the returns to Limited Partners. In addition, if a Limited Partner defaults, non-Defaulting Limited Partners may be obligated to make capital contributions (in proportion to but not in excess of their undrawn commitments) to the Fund to make up for the amounts not paid by such defaulting Limited Partner. Lack of capital may also cause the Fund to lose valuable opportunities. Any default by one or more Limited Partners could have a deleterious effect on the Fund, its assets and the Units of the other Limited Partners.

***Cybersecurity risks and cybersecurity incidents may adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information, and/or damage to our business relationships, all of which could negatively impact the Fund.***

Cybersecurity incidents and cyber-attacks have been occurring globally at more frequent and severe levels and will likely continue to increase in frequency in the future. As part of its business, CIM processes, stores and transmits large amounts of electronic information, including information relating to the transactions of the Fund and personally identifiable information of the Limited Partners. Similarly, service providers of CIM may process, store and transmit such information. CIM's information and technology systems may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from computer viruses, network failures, computer and telecommunication failures, infiltration by unauthorized persons and security breaches, usage errors by their respective professionals, power outages and catastrophic events such as fires, tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes, wars, terrorist attacks and other similar events. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyberattacks or cyber intrusions, including by computer hackers, nation-state affiliated actors, and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased, and will likely continue to increase in the future. Such threats are prevalent and continue to rise, are increasingly difficult to detect, and come from a variety of sources, including traditional computer "hackers", threat actors, "hacktivists", organized criminal threat actors, personnel (such as through theft or misuse), sophisticated nation states, and nation-state-supported actors. Some actors now engage and are expected to continue to engage in cyberattacks, including, without limitation, nation-state actors for geopolitical reasons and in conjunction with military conflicts and defense activities. During times of war and other major conflicts, we and the third-party service providers upon which we rely may be vulnerable to heightened risk of these attacks, including retaliatory cyberattacks. Measures designed to manage risks relating to these types of events cannot provide absolute security. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to data, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and may be difficult to detect for long periods of time. If these systems are compromised, become inoperable for extended periods of time or cease to function properly, CIM may have to make a significant capital outlay to fix or replace them. The failure of these systems and/or of disaster recovery plans for any reason could cause significant interruptions in CIM's and/or the Fund's operations and result in a failure to maintain the security, confidentiality or privacy of sensitive data, including personal information

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

relating to partners (and the beneficial owners of partners). A cybersecurity incident could have numerous material adverse effects, including on the operations, liquidity and financial condition of the Fund. Cyber threats and/or incidents could cause financial costs as well as numerous unforeseen costs, including: litigation costs, preventative and protective costs, remediation costs and costs associated with reputational damage, any one of which could be materially adverse to the Fund. Such a failure could harm CIM's and/or the Fund's reputation, subject any such entity and their respective affiliates to legal claims and otherwise affect their business and financial performance.

The service providers of CIM are subject to the same electronic information security threats as CIM. If a service provider fails to adopt or adhere to adequate data security policies, or in the event of a breach of its networks, information relating to the transactions of the Fund and personally identifiable information of the Limited Partners may be lost or improperly accessed, used or disclosed.

Remote work has become more common among the employees and personnel of our manager and other third-party service providers and has increased risks to the information technology systems and confidential, proprietary and sensitive data of our manager and other third-party service providers as more of those employees utilize network connections, computers and devices outside of the employer's premises or network, including working at home, while in transit, and in public locations. Those employees working remotely could expose our manager and other third-party service providers to additional cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities as their systems could be negatively affected by vulnerabilities present in external systems and technologies outside of their control.

***Our approach to artificial intelligence may not be successful and could adversely affect our business.***

We have incorporated and expect to continue to incorporate the use of AI within our business, and these solutions and features may become more important to our operations over time. Our research and development of AI remains ongoing. There can be no assurance that we will realize the desired or anticipated benefits or cost-efficiency objectives of, and we may fail to properly implement, such technology. AI presents risks, challenges and unintended consequences that could affect our adoption and use of this technology. Our competitors or other third parties may incorporate AI in their business operations more quickly or more successfully than we do, which could impair our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our results of operations. Additionally, the complex and rapidly evolving landscape around AI may expose us to claims, demands and proceedings by private parties and regulatory authorities and subject us to legal liability as well as reputational harm. Future regulations could impose restrictions on the use of these technologies or require us to implement costly compliance measures. Finally, public perception of new technologies (including AI), such as concerns about data privacy and algorithmic bias, could affect customer acceptance of technology-driven services, which could harm our reputation and business.

***Limited Partners making capital contributions after the Initial Closing either as newly admitted Limited Partners or by increasing their Capital Commitment will participate in existing Portfolio Assets, diluting the interest of existing Limited Partners therein.***

The effect of such dilution could be especially pronounced if Limited Partners are admitted at a time when the Fund's NAV is at a depressed level due to adverse market conditions or market disruption. Although such Limited Partners will contribute their pro rata share of previously made capital contributions, there can be no assurance that this payment will reflect the fair value of the Portfolio Assets at the time such Limited Partners make such capital contributions.

The Fund's NAV determines the value at which the Fund issues additional Units. As a result, as discussed above, a Limited Partner's investment in Units could be diluted by the sale of additional Units. Further, if a Limited Partner requests a redemption, such Limited Partner's Units may be redeemed at a different price than the price at which such Limited Partner originally purchased its Units. The General Partner will receive an Incentive Allocation on unrealized profit that may ultimately not be realized, and in the case such profit is not ultimately realized, such excess Incentive Allocation will not be returned to the Limited Partner.

***In the event that there are substantial redemptions of the Units within a limited period of time, the Fund may find it difficult to adjust its strategies to the suddenly reduced amount of assets under management.***

Under such circumstances, if the Fund elects to pay for redemptions in cash, the Fund may liquidate Portfolio Assets at an inappropriate time or on unfavorable terms, resulting in a lower NAV for the remaining Limited Partners and a lower Redemption Price for the redeeming Limited Partners. On an ongoing basis, irrespective of the period over which substantial redemptions occur, it may be more difficult for the Fund to generate additional profits operating on a smaller asset base, and as a result of liquidating assets to fund redemptions, the Fund may be left with a much less liquid portfolio.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

In addition, such redemptions may materially adversely affect the liquidity position of the Fund, including its ability to satisfy margin calls, satisfy other contractual payment obligations and make other uses of cash.

***The General Partner may require the redemption of all or any portion of a Limited Partner's Units.***

The General Partner may require the redemption of all or any portion of such Limited Partner's Units if, in the good faith judgment of the General Partner, (i) a significant delay, extraordinary expense or material adverse effect on the Fund or any of its affiliates, any individual, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, trust or other entity in which the Fund holds assets, any Partner or any prospective acquisition is reasonably likely to result without such redemption, (ii) a violation of any law, rule, regulation or policy is otherwise likely to result or (iii) the contractual rights of such Limited Partner would be materially and adversely affected by an amendment to the Partnership Agreement. Such a redemption could cause such Limited Partner, among other things, to incur transaction costs associated with the (partial or total) liquidation of the Fund's portfolio or to miss an opportunity to recover earlier losses or to enjoy potentially attractive future returns.

***Limited holdback on redemptions.***

The General Partner will distribute (i) within thirty (30) calendar days after the applicable Redemption Date, an amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the Redemption Price (without interest) and (ii) within ten (10) business days following the completion and release of the Fund's quarterly unaudited consolidated financial statements with respect to such Redemption Date, an amount equal to the remaining balance of the Redemption Price (without interest), subject to any audit adjustments. The NAV for a redemption may be determined using estimates of the value of assets held by the Fund, and audited financials will generally not be prepared until the end of the calendar year. To the extent that a valuation adjustment with respect to any Redemption Price is identified pursuant to an annual audit of the Fund's books, the General Partner will identify the calendar quarter in which such value adjustment occurred and will adjust the Redemption Price of the affected Limited Partners who withdrew and received distributions in respect of such redemption in such fiscal year. The Fund will generally not hold back cash amounts from the Redemption Price, and redeeming Limited Partners may not be required to return amounts received if the annual audit of the Fund is inconsistent with the estimates used to determine the Redemption Price. If a redeeming Limited Partner has been overpaid based on such inconsistency between the estimates and the final audited financials, the Fund (and, therefore, the non-redeeming Limited Partners) may be required to bear such losses.

***In connection with the consummation of certain Portfolio Assets, the Fund expects to enter into swaps, caps and/or other hedging transactions designed to protect the Fund against adverse movements in interest rates.***

While such transactions may reduce certain risks, such transactions themselves entail certain other risks or may react to movements in interest rates differently than originally expected. Thus, while the Fund may benefit from the use of these hedging mechanisms, unanticipated changes in interest rates may result in a poorer overall performance for the Fund than if it had not entered into such hedging transactions.

***The Fund may be required to make contingent funding commitments or guarantees to portfolio entities or vehicles or entities in or alongside which the Fund deploys capital and to provide other credit support arrangements in connection therewith.***

Such credit support may take the form of a guarantee, a letter of credit or other forms of promise to provide funding. Such credit support may result in fees, expenses, and interest costs to the Fund, which could adversely impact the results of the Fund. Further, to the extent such credit support is not available or is not available at commercially attractive rates, the ability of the Fund to consummate Portfolio Assets and realize its objectives could be negatively impacted.

***The Fund is exposed to the risk that third parties that may owe the Fund money, securities or other assets will not perform their obligations.***

These parties include, without limitation, trading counterparties, clearing agents, exchanges, clearing houses, custodians, prime brokers, administrators, and other financial intermediaries. These parties may default on their obligations to the Fund due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure, and/or other reasons. This risk may arise, for example, from entering into swap or other derivative contracts under which counterparties have long-term obligations to make payments to the Fund, or executing securities, futures, currency, or commodity trades that fail to settle at the required time due to non-delivery by the counterparty or systems failure by clearing agents, exchanges, clearing houses or other financial intermediaries. Also, any practice of rehypothecation of securities of the Fund held by counterparties could result in the loss of such securities upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or failure of such counterparties.

***The Partnership Agreement and Management Agreement include exculpation, indemnification and other provisions that limit the circumstances under which the General Partner, the Manager and others can be held liable to the Fund.***

In such circumstances, the Fund would be required to indemnify the General Partner, the Manager, their respective affiliates and the respective current and former principals, managers, members, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives thereof, as well as certain other persons who serve at the request of the General Partner or its affiliates for liabilities incurred in connection with the affairs of the Fund. Any Review Agent will also be entitled to the benefit of certain indemnification and exculpation provisions as set forth in the Partnership Agreement. In addition, the Fund may agree to indemnify and exculpate certain placement agents, finders and advisors engaged in connection with the placement of the Units to the maximum extent permitted by law. Such liabilities may be material and have an adverse effect on the returns to the Limited Partners. For example, in their capacity as directors of Portfolio Assets, the members, managers or affiliates of the General Partner may be subject to derivative or other similar claims brought by shareholders of such companies. The indemnification obligation of the Fund including, without limitation, the expense of defending against claims by third parties and paying any amounts pursuant to settlements or judgments would absent certain conduct by the indemnitees be payable from the assets of the Fund, including the undrawn Capital Commitments of the Limited Partners. Due to the open-end nature of the Fund, capital attributable to a Limited Partner admitted after the events giving rise to an indemnification obligation of the Fund may be used to fund such obligation. If the assets of the Fund are insufficient, the General Partner may recall distributions previously made to the Limited Partners, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Agreements. It should also be noted that the General Partner may purchase insurance for the Fund, the General Partner, the Manager and their respective affiliates, employees, agents and representatives, which insurance would be a Fund expense.

In addition, Limited Partners should note that the Partnership Agreement contains provisions that, subject to applicable law, (i) reduce or eliminate the duties, including fiduciary and other duties, to which the General Partner would otherwise be subject, (ii) waive duties or consent to the conduct of the General Partner that might not otherwise be permitted pursuant to such duties and (iii) limit the remedies of Limited Partners with respect to breaches of such duties. Additionally, certain service providers to the Fund, the General Partner, the Manager, their respective affiliates and other persons, including, without limitation, any Review Agent, may be entitled to exculpation and indemnification (in certain cases, on terms more favorable to them than those available to indemnitees generally). As a result, the Limited Partners may have a more limited right of action in certain cases than they would in the absence of such limitations.

***Limited Partners' rights to information regarding the Fund will be specified, and strictly limited, in the Partnership Agreement.***

In particular, it is anticipated that the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates will obtain certain types of material information from Portfolio Assets that will not be disclosed to Limited Partners because such disclosure is prohibited by contractual, legal or other obligations outside of the control of the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates. Decisions by the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates to withhold information may have adverse consequences for Limited Partners in a variety of circumstances. For example, a Limited Partner that seeks to transfer its Units may have difficulty in determining an appropriate price for such Units. Decisions to withhold information also may make it difficult for Limited Partners to monitor the General Partner, the Manager and their respective performance. Additionally, it is expected that Limited Partners that are offered the opportunity to co-invest in transactions may, by virtue of such participation or offer, have more information about the Fund and Portfolio Assets in certain circumstances than other Limited Partners generally and may be disseminated information in advance of communication to other Limited Partners generally.

Certain Limited Partners may request information from the General Partner relating to the Fund and, to the extent such information is readily available or may be obtained without unreasonable effort or expense, the General Partner will generally provide such Limited Partners with the information requested. Limited Partners that request and receive such information will consequently possess information regarding the business and affairs of the Fund that is not generally known to other Limited Partners. As a result, certain Limited Partners may be able to take actions on the basis of such information which, in the absence of such information, other Limited Partners do not take.

***Because we do not have nomination and corporate governance, audit or compensation committees, investors will have to rely on the existing management team and the General Partner to perform these functions.***

We do not have a nomination and corporate governance, audit or compensation committee and these functions are performed by the existing management team and the General Partner as a whole. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that the management team will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions. These decisions may not be in investors best interests.

***We will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a reporting company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.***

We will incur certain costs of compliance with applicable SEC reporting rules and regulations including, but not limited to attorneys' fees, accounting and auditing fees, other professional fees and Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended ("SOX") compliance costs. However, for as long as we remain an "emerging growth company" as defined in the JOBS Act we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other reporting companies that are not "emerging growth companies" including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of SOX, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and other SEC filings. We intend to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an "emerging growth company" as applicable. We will remain an "emerging growth company" for up to five years, although if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time, we would cease to be an "emerging growth company" as of the following December 31. After, and if ever, we are no longer an "emerging growth company," we expect to incur significant additional expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with those requirements applicable to companies that are not "emerging growth companies," including Section 404 of SOX.

We were also a "smaller reporting company" for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which allowed us to take advantage of certain exemptions from certain reporting requirements. We no longer qualify as a "smaller reporting company" and, as a result, we will no longer be able to avail ourselves of certain reduced disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies. We expect that the loss of our smaller reporting company status and compliance with various additional reporting requirements will increase our legal and financial compliance costs.

***If our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to certify as to their effectiveness, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation.***

Pursuant to Section 404 of SOX, we will be required to furnish a report by its management on our internal control over financial reporting. However, while we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required to include an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by its independent registered public accounting firm. To achieve compliance with Section 404 of SOX within the prescribed period, we will be engaged in a process to document and evaluate our internal control over financial reporting, which is both costly and challenging. In this regard, we will need to continue to dedicate internal resources, potentially engage outside consultants and counsel and adopt a detailed work plan to assess and document the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting, continue steps to improve control processes as appropriate, validate through testing that controls are functioning as documented and implement a continuous reporting and improvement process for internal control over financial reporting. Despite our efforts, there is a risk that it will be able to conclude within the prescribed timeframe that its internal control over financial reporting is effective as required by Section 404 of SOX. As a result, our Units could decline in value due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our consolidated financial statements. In addition, we may be required to incur costs in improving its internal control system and the hiring of additional personnel. Any such action could negatively affect our results of operations and cash flows.

**Certain Regulatory, Tax and Legal Risks**

***The Fund's ability to achieve its objectives, as well as the ability of the Fund to conduct its operations, is based on laws and regulations which are subject to change through legislative, judicial and/or administrative action. Future legislative, judicial and/or administrative action could adversely affect the Fund's ability to achieve its objectives, as well as the ability of the Fund to conduct its operations.***

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

could be applied to private funds, particularly large, highly leveraged funds. On April 18, 2016, the FSOC released an update on its multi-year review of asset management products and activities and created an interagency working group to assess potential risks associated with certain leveraged funds, but it did not issue any proposed rules or regulations. While at this stage it is difficult to predict the scope of any new regulations, if regulations were to extend the regulatory and supervisory requirements, such as capital and liquidity standards, currently applicable to banks to other nonbank companies, or the Fund were considered to be engaged in certain "shadow banking" activities, either in the United States or in any other jurisdiction in which the Fund engages in investment activities, the regulatory and operating costs associated therewith could adversely impact the implementation of the Fund's investment strategy and the Fund's returns and may become prohibitive.

The Dodd-Frank Act also imposes a number of restrictions on the relationship and activities of banking organizations with certain private equity funds and hedge funds and other provisions that will affect the private equity industry, either directly or indirectly. Included in the Dodd-Frank Act is the so-called "Volcker Rule," which takes the form of Section 13 of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (as amended from time to time, and the rules promulgated thereunder, the "BHC Act"). Among other things, the Volcker Rule prohibits any "banking entity" (generally defined as any insured depository institution, subject to certain exceptions, any company that controls such an institution, a non-U.S. bank that is treated as a bank holding company for purposes of U.S. banking law, and any affiliate or subsidiary of the foregoing entities) from sponsoring or acquiring or retaining an ownership interest in a private equity fund or hedge fund that is not subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act in reliance upon either Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act. The Volcker Rule also permits the Federal Reserve to require, by rule, that certain nonbank financial companies that have been determined to be systemically important by the FSOC and subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve (as discussed above) comply with additional capital requirements for, and additional quantitative limits with regard to, such activities, although such nonbank financial companies are not expressly prohibited from sponsoring or investing in such funds. The Volcker Rule became effective as a matter of statute on July 21, 2012, but banking entities had a so-called "conformance period," which ran until July 21, 2015 (or July 21, 2017, in the case of investments in and relationships with certain "legacy funds" that were in place prior to December 31, 2013), to wind down, sell, transfer or otherwise conform their investments and activities to the Volcker Rule, absent an extension by the Federal Reserve or an exemption for certain "permitted activities." On December 10, 2013, the Federal Reserve and other federal regulatory agencies issued final rules implementing the principal components of the Volcker Rule. Prospective Limited Partners that are banking entities should consult their bank regulatory counsel prior to purchasing Units. The Dodd-Frank Act, as well as future related legislation, may have an adverse effect on the private equity industry generally and/or on CIM or the Fund, specifically. On May 24, 2018, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (the "Reform Act") was signed into law. Among other regulatory changes, the Reform Act amends various sections of the Dodd-Frank Act, including by modifying the Volcker Rule. The ultimate consequences of the Reform Act and other legislative and regulatory developments on the Fund and its activities remain uncertain. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any continued regulatory scrutiny or initiatives will not have an adverse impact on CIM or otherwise impede the Fund's activities.

The enactment of these reforms and/or other similar legislation could have an adverse effect on the private investment funds industry generally and on the Manager and/or the Fund specifically, and may impede the Fund's ability to effectively achieve its objectives.

If CIM advisors, or an affiliate thereof that is a registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act, is a Manager of the Fund, such Manager will be required to comply with a variety of periodic reporting and compliance-related obligations under applicable federal and state securities laws (including, without limitation, the obligation of such Manager to make regulatory filings with respect to the Fund and its activities under the Advisers Act (currently including, without limitation, Form PF and Form ADV), as well as other international jurisdiction-specific obligations). In light of the heightened regulatory environment in which the Fund and the Manager operate and the ever-increasing regulations applicable to private investment funds and their managers, it could become increasingly expensive and time-consuming for the Fund, the Manager and their affiliates to comply with such regulatory reporting and compliance-related obligations. The Fund will be required to bear the Fund's expenses relating to compliance-related matters and regulatory filings relating to the activities of the Fund, which are likely to be material, including on a cumulative basis over the life of the Fund. For example, if a Manager is a registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act, Form PF will require that such Manager report the regulatory assets under management of the Fund, and because the Fund will be required to bear the Fund's expenses relating to compliance-related matters and regulatory filings relating to the activities of the Fund, the Fund will bear the costs and expenses of initial and ongoing Form PF compliance applicable to the Fund, including costs and expenses of collecting and calculating data and the preparation of such reports and filings. Certain of these expenses are likely to be material, including on a cumulative basis over the life of the Fund. Any further increases in the regulations applicable to private investment funds generally or the Fund and/or the Manager in particular may result in increased expenses associated with the Fund's activities and additional resources of the Manager being devoted to such regulatory reporting

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

and compliance-related obligations, which may reduce overall returns for the Limited Partners and/or have an adverse effect on the ability of the Fund to effectively achieve its objective.

Furthermore, various federal, state and local agencies have been examining the role of placement agents, finders and other similar service providers in the context of investment by public pension plans and other similar entities, including investigations and requests for information, and in connection therewith, new and/or proposed rules and regulations in this arena may increase the possibility that the General Partner, the Manager and/or their respective affiliates may be exposed to claims and/or actions that could require a Limited Partner to redeem from the Fund. As a related matter, CIM may be required to provide certain information regarding Limited Partners to regulatory agencies and bodies in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the "FCPA").

As a result, there can be no assurance that any of the foregoing will not have an adverse impact on CIM or otherwise impede the Fund's ability to effectively achieve its objectives.

***If we fail to operate our business in a manner that permits our exclusion from the definition of "Investment Company" under the 1940 Act, we would become subject to substantial regulation with respect to our capital structure, management, operations, transactions with affiliated persons (as defined in the 1940 Act), and portfolio composition, which would materially adversely affect the Fund.***

Under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the 1940 Act, a company generally will be deemed to be an "investment company" for purposes of the 1940 Act if (1) it is, or holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities, or (2) it engages, or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. We do not believe that we meet the definition of an "investment company," as such term is defined in either of those sections of the 1940 Act. We intend to conduct our operations so that we will not be deemed an "investment company" under the 1940 Act. In the event that the manner in which we conduct our operations changes such that we would be deemed an "investment company" under the 1940 Act, we intend to rely on the exemption from the registration requirements of the 1940 Act under Section 3(c)(5)(C) thereof as discussed above. See "Item 1 Business—Investment Company Act of 1940."

If it were established that we were an unregistered "investment company" under the 1940 Act, there would be a risk that we would be subject to monetary penalties and injunctive relief in an action brought by the SEC. If we were required to register as an "investment company" under the 1940 Act, restrictions imposed by the 1940 Act, including limitations on our capital structure and our ability to transact with affiliates, could make it impractical for us to continue our business as contemplated and could have a material adverse effect on our business.

***Registration with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") as a "commodity pool operator" or any change in the Fund's operations necessary to maintain CIM's, the General Partner's and/or their respective affiliates' ability to rely upon the exemption from registration could adversely affect the Fund's ability to implement its objectives, conduct its operations and/or achieve its objectives and/or subject the Fund to certain additional costs, expenses, and/or administrative burdens.***

Furthermore, any determination by CIM, the General Partner or such affiliate, as applicable, to cease or to limit the acquisition of interests which may be treated as "commodity interests" in order to comply with the regulations of the CFTC may have a material adverse effect on the Fund's ability to implement its objectives and to hedge risks associated with its operations. The Fund's private placement memorandum, as amended and restated from time to time (the "Memorandum") will not be required to be, and will not be, filed with the CFTC. The CFTC does not pass upon the merits of participating in the Fund or upon the adequacy or accuracy of the Memorandum. Consequently, the CFTC has not reviewed or approved, and will not review or approve, this offering, the Memorandum, this registration statement or any other offering memorandum for the Fund.

***Some of the Units may be held by Limited Partners that are public pension plans and listed investment vehicles, which are subject to public disclosure requirements.***

The amount of information about their investments that is required to be disclosed has increased in recent years, and that trend may continue. To the extent that the General Partner determines in good faith that, as a result of the U.S. Freedom of Information Act ("FOIA"), any governmental public records access law, any state or other jurisdiction's laws similar in intent or effect to FOIA, or any other similar statutory or regulatory requirement, a Limited Partner or any of its affiliates may be required to disclose information relating to the Fund, its affiliates, and/or any entity in which they directly

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

or indirectly participate (other than certain fund-level, aggregate performance information described in the Partnership Agreement or the governing documents of any other fund entity), the General Partner may, in order to prevent any such potential disclosure, withhold all or any part of the information otherwise to be provided to such Limited Partner. Conversely, potential future regulatory changes applicable to managers and/or the accounts they manage could result in the Manager and/or the Fund becoming subject to additional disclosure requirements the specific nature of which is as yet uncertain.

***Economic sanction laws in the United States and other jurisdictions may prohibit CIM, CIM's professionals and/or the Fund from transacting with or in certain countries and with certain individuals and companies.***

In the United States, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") administers and enforces laws, Executive Orders and regulations establishing U.S. economic and trade sanctions. Such sanctions prohibit, among other things, transactions with, and the provision of services to, certain foreign countries, territories, entities and individuals. These entities and individuals include specially designated nationals, specially designated narcotics traffickers, and other parties subject to OFAC sanctions and embargo programs. The lists of OFAC prohibited countries, territories, persons and entities, including the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, as such list may be amended from time to time, can be found on the OFAC website at . In addition, certain programs administered by OFAC prohibit dealing with individuals or entities in certain countries regardless of whether such individuals or entities appear on the lists maintained by OFAC. These types of sanctions may significantly restrict the Fund's activities in certain emerging market countries.

In some countries, there is a greater acceptance than in the United States of government involvement in commercial activities, and of corruption. CIM, the CIM professionals and/or the Fund are committed to complying with the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws and regulations, as well as anti-boycott regulations, to which they are subject. As a result, the Fund may be adversely affected because of its unwillingness to participate in transactions that violate such laws or regulations. Such laws and regulations may make it difficult in certain circumstances for the Fund to act successfully on opportunities and for Portfolio Assets to obtain or retain business.

In recent years, the U.S. Department of Justice and the SEC have devoted greater resources to enforcement of the FCPA. In addition, the United Kingdom has recently significantly expanded the reach of its anti-bribery laws. While CIM has developed and implemented policies and procedures designed to cause compliance by CIM and its personnel with the FCPA, such policies and procedures may not be effective in all instances to prevent violations. In addition, in spite of CIM's policies and procedures, affiliates of portfolio entities, particularly in cases where the Fund or another CIM-sponsored fund or vehicle does not control such portfolio entity, may engage in activities that could result in FCPA violations. Any determination that CIM has violated the FCPA or other applicable anti-corruption laws could subject us to, among other things, civil and criminal penalties, material fines, profit disgorgement, injunctions on future conduct, securities litigation and/or a general loss of confidence, any one of which could adversely affect CIM's business prospects and/or financial position, as well as the Fund's ability to achieve its objective and/or conduct its operations.

***The OBBBA has made many major changes to U.S. federal income tax law.***

The OBBBA made significant changes to U.S. federal income tax law. The OBBBA made changes to the TCJA, including with respect to the Opportunity Zone statute. The OBBBA has also made substantial modifications to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the "IRAct"), including a number of changes that significantly impact the future availability of ITCs under Section 48E of the Code. Ambiguities surrounding various aspects of the OBBBA together with uncertainty about the nature and timing of regulations that will be promulgated to implement such legislation, may create uncertainty in financial markets and create other unknown risks. Changes or modifications in existing judicial decisions or in the current positions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") or any other tax authority and the passage of new legislation could substantially modify the tax treatment described in this registration statement, possibly on a retroactive basis.

The OBBBA has extended the Opportunity Zone program indefinitely and introduced new reporting requirements for QOFs and qualified opportunity zone businesses. In addition, for investments in QOFs made after December 31 2026, changes include replacing the December 31, 2047 sunset on exclusion of post-investment appreciation with a 30-year rolling horizon beginning from the date of the investment, implementing a new rolling recognition rule (whereby gains deferred under the Opportunity Zone program will be recognized on the fifth anniversary of the investment date) and eliminating the Seven-Year Benefit. The OBBBA has also imposed increased criteria (including, lowering the median family income threshold from 80% to 70%, limiting the "poverty rate" test to census tracts with a median family income at or below 125% of the applicable statewide or metropolitan median and repealing the "contiguous tract" rule) for a census tract to be designated as a qualified Opportunity Zone after December 31, 2026. These changes are expected to reduce the

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

number of qualifying census tracts, potentially limiting the Fund's ability to identify and close on Opportunity Zone investments. We will continue to monitor and assess any guidance issued in respect of these new OZ rules and expect to take reasonable steps to reduce any adverse impacts resulting from such guidance, if any.

The OBBBA also contains a number of changes to the IRAct that significantly impact the availability of the ITCs under Section 48E of the Code, including the accelerated sunsetting of certain investment tax credits, and certain limited restrictions on their transferability to third-parties for sale. In particular, ITCs for solar projects under Section 48E are terminated if they do not begin construction by July 4, 2026 unless such projects are placed in service by December 31, 2027. On July 7, 2025, a federal executive order was issued directing the Secretary of the Treasury to issue new and revised guidance on the interpretation of "begin construction" requirements for wind and solar facilities. Pursuant to this executive order, the U.S. Department of Treasury issued IRS Notice 2025-42. IRS Notice 2025-42 largely eliminates the "five percent safe harbor," which previously allowed taxpayers to establish that their projects have "begun construction" by the relevant deadline by incurring 5% or more of the applicable project costs, and instead generally requires taxpayers to satisfy the "physical work test" in order to establish that their projects have "begun construction" by the relevant deadline. However, IRS Notice 2025-42 generally retains the "continuity safe harbor," under which projects that begin construction by December 31, 2025, and are placed in service within four years thereafter generally should qualify for the clean energy tax credits. The Fund's current investments that generate ITCs are not expected to be impacted by the OBBBA changes. Nevertheless, the Trump administration may continue to issue executive orders and/or additional guidance may be issued that impose additional restrictions on the IRAct or other relevant laws or regulations. The Fund will continue to monitor and assess any guidance issued under the executive order or otherwise, including with respect to the impact on future investments.

The Fund cannot predict whether the U.S. Congress or any other legislative body will enact additional tax legislation under the Trump administration or whether the IRS or any other tax authority will issue new regulations or other guidance, nor can it predict what effect such legislation or regulations might have. There can be no assurance that new legislation or regulations, including changes to existing laws and regulations, will not have an adverse effect on the Fund's investment performance, the Fund's ability to qualify as a QOF and/or an investor's ability to utilize the tax benefits of the QOF regime or tax credits generated by renewable energy projects.

***Census tracts may cease to qualify as Opportunity Zones.***

Under the OBBBA, the designation of Opportunity Zones is subject to a decennial (every 10 years) review and redesignation process, with the first such determination scheduled for July 1, 2026 and to be effective January 1, 2027. As a result, census tracts that are currently designated as Opportunity Zones may not be redesignated as Opportunity Zones as part of the July 1, 2026 redesignation process (or future decennial redesignation processes). Nothing in the existing QOZ statutes or regulations would cause existing investments located in census tracts designated as QOZs to lose their status as qualifying investments if the census tract in which the investment is located is not re-designated in a future decennial redesignation period. Under existing Opportunity Zone regulations, current designations as Opportunity Zones expire on December 31, 2028 and this was not changed by the OBBBA. However, to the extent a census tract is not redesignated as an Opportunity Zone following the first decennial determination, there is uncertainty as to whether investments made in such census tract after such determination but prior to the expiration of its current designation will be treated as investments in Opportunity Zones for purposes of the QOF rules. While it is generally anticipated that existing Opportunity Zone designations will be "grandfathered" for these purposes, the Treasury has not issued definitive guidance on this issue, and there can be no assurance that future regulations or administrative guidance will provide for full "grandfathering" or will not impose additional requirements or limitations. This uncertainty may adversely affect the Fund's ability to deploy and therefore call Capital Commitments during this interim period given the risk that current Opportunity Zone designations are deemed to have expired.

***The Fund may not meet the Asset Test in the future.***

To qualify as a QOF, at least ninety percent (90%) of the assets of the Fund must be "qualified opportunity zone property" (the "Asset Test") as described in "Business—Opportunity Zone Tax Benefits." The Fund must meet this test based on an average of its holdings measured twice each year. Qualified opportunity zone property includes "qualified opportunity zone business property," as well as certain interests in domestic partnerships and domestic corporations that are treated as engaged in a "qualified opportunity zone business." Generally, qualified opportunity zone business property is tangible property used in a trade or business that meets certain specified requirements and is located in Opportunity Zones pursuant to certain requirements in the Code. The Fund may not be able to satisfy the Asset Test because it cannot deploy capital in a timely manner, faces construction delays, there are delays in receiving governmental approvals or due to other factors outside the Fund's control. In addition, the Fund's ability to satisfy the Asset Test may be impaired if the Fund holds assets through multiple entities that are classified as partnerships or corporations for U.S. federal income tax

purposes. In such cases, the Fund may be subject to penalty taxes as provided under the Code (unless it is eligible for a reasonable-cause exception) and may fail to qualify as a QOF.

***Investors must make appropriate timely investments and elections in order to take advantage of the tax benefits of a QOF.***

For an investor to receive the QOF tax benefits that the Fund is intended to enable, the investor must make a timely investment of capital gains in the Fund and timely elect to treat such investment as a QOF investment under the Code. In particular, in general, an investor must generate any capital gain it wishes to defer by investing in the Fund from a sale or exchange to an unrelated party within 180 days of the investment in the Fund (certain special rules may apply to investors who are partners in partnerships or shareholders in Subchapter S Corporations and who have certain types of gain (e.g. "1231 gains")). Investors that make multiple investments in the Fund may have a blended holding period in their Units. This may extend the period the investor must hold the Units in order to qualify for Ten-Year Benefit as described in "Business—Opportunity Zone Tax Benefits" and, in the case of investments in the Fund made after December 31, 2026, the entire 10 percent (10%) step-up in adjusted tax basis for QOF interests held for five years. Investors should consult with their own tax advisors to ensure that capital gain they wish to invest is eligible for the QOF regime.

***The Fund may call capital when an investor does not have, or is not able to generate, adequate capital gain to meet the full capital call, in which case the investor may have to invest cash in the Fund that is not eligible for the benefits of a QOF.***

Investors should be aware that the Fund may not call capital within 180 days after the investor initially subscribes to the Fund, in which case the investor may be unable to invest any capital gain the investor has realized at the time of subscription into the Fund within the time prescribed by the Code to obtain the benefits of the QOF program. Investors should be prepared to generate capital gain with respect to each capital call if they wish to take full advantage of the tax benefits of the QOF regime.

***Investors Must Hold Units of the Partnership for at Least Ten Years to Avoid Recognizing Gain on the Sale of Partnership Interests.***

In order to qualify for the Ten-Year Benefit upon a sale of Units, which allows the investor to not recognize any gain or be subject to depreciation recapture under Sections 1245 or 1250 of the Code on the post-investment appreciation of the contributed capital, the investor must hold the Units for at least ten years. As mentioned above, multiple investments in the Fund made at different times may cause the investor to have a blended holding period in its Units. Thus, in order to meet the ten-year holding period, the investor may need to hold the Units for ten years after the investor's final investment in the Fund.

***The Fund may use alternative investment vehicles to hold its investments.***

The Fund may hold some of its investments through alternative investment vehicles ("AIVs") that are intended to be treated as QOFs. The use of AIVs may facilitate the sale of the interests in the AIV QOF and enable investors to take advantage of the Ten-Year Benefit. If the sale of an AIV is respected as sale of a QOF, investors are expected to be able to report the Ten-Year Benefit associated with the sale of interests in a QOF. It is possible, however, that the IRS will not respect the Fund and each of the AIVs as separate entities and instead aggregate them as one entity, in which case the sale of the AIV may not allow an investor to receive any or all of the benefits of investing in a QOF.

***Investors may be limited in their ability to use losses and credits.***

The ability for investors to use any losses and credits that the Fund generates may be limited. Under the Code, an investment in a QOF has an initial tax basis of zero except as specifically adjusted in the QOF statute, in which case the investor will not be able to claim any deductions, losses or credits that would reduce adjusted tax basis below zero under the general rule that deductions cannot reduce adjusted tax basis below zero. Under U.S. Treasury Regulations, debt incurred by the Fund will create basis with respect to an investment in the QOF, which may permit investors to utilize deductions. Losses and credits generated by the Fund may also be subject to the restrictions under the "passive activity" rules of the Code. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors for advice on the ability to use any losses and credits generated by the Fund.

***Sales of assets by the Fund may result in double taxation or result in an investor's inability to qualify for all or a part of the Ten-Year Benefit.***

If the Fund sells any assets, under generally applicable partnership tax law principles, any gain from such sale will be allocated to the investors in the Fund and increase their tax basis of their investment in the Fund. However, it is not clear whether income allocations would increase the investor's adjusted tax basis in the Fund, because the QOF rules state the tax basis of an investment in QOFs is zero except as specifically adjusted in the QOF statute and U.S. Treasury Regulations (and not the general rules associated with the taxation of partnership interests, which generally increase an investor's tax basis in a partnership interest for income and gain allocated to such investor). If there were no increase in adjusted tax basis as a result of the income and gain allocation and the Fund were to redeem an investor's interest, such investor may receive a distribution in excess of adjusted tax basis and therefore pay tax twice on the same gain. If an investor has held its interest in the Fund for ten years or more, such investor may obtain the Ten-Year Benefit by electing to exclude from gross income some or all of the gain arising from the sale of Opportunity Zone property held by the Fund. If an investor makes a valid election to exclude gain from gross income, the investor's allocable share of the net proceeds from such gain will be deemed to be distributed to the investor in cash and then recontributed by the investor to the Fund as a non-qualified investment. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund does not expect to sell assets until the first investors in the Fund are eligible for the election to exclude gains from gross income pursuant to the Ten-Year Benefit with respect to their entire interests in the Fund (i.e., ten years after the last capital call with respect to such interests), though no guarantee can be given in this regard and in certain circumstances the Fund may sell assets before some or all investors are able to avail themselves of such election.

***Redemptions by Partners may not qualify for the Ten-Year Benefit.***

To the extent that it is required to do so, the Fund intends to take the position that gain on distributions in redemption of Units that the Fund pays to a Partner after the tenth anniversary of the last contribution made by the Limited Partners seeking the Opportunity Zone tax benefits generally will qualify as gains from the sale or exchange of the Limited Partner's Units, thus allowing Partners that have elected to treat their investment as a QOF investment to avail themselves of the Ten-Year Benefit and exclude from taxable income any gain they recognize from the Fund. The Fund has received an opinion (subject to the risk factors discussed below) that a redemption of Units should be treated as a sale or exchange for purposes of the Ten-Year Benefit. Despite receipt of the opinion, however, such a redemption may not be treated as a sale or exchange for purposes of the QOF rules, in which case it would not be eligible for the income tax exclusion described in the prior sentence. Distributions in redemption of some but not all of a Limited Partner's Units are subject to additional uncertainty and are subject to further complications. The rules in this area are uncertain and additional guidance issued during the ten-year period could substantially diminish or eliminate the Fund's ability to take such a position (if required) or the ability of investors to avail themselves of the Ten-Year Benefit. For further discussion, see "Business—Opportunity Zone Tax Benefits." Investors are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the foregoing.

***Investors will need cash from sources other than the Fund to pay taxes on capital gain realized on their original investment in the Fund.***

Under the QOF rules, the amount of capital gain an investor contributes to a QOF is deferred until the earlier of (i) the date on which the interest in the QOF is sold or exchanged (or certain other events occur) and (ii) the Inclusion Date. At such time, the investor is required to recognize capital gain in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the full amount of the capital gain or (y) the fair market value of the interest as determined at such time. The Fund may not provide tax distributions or other cash to investors to pay any tax liability with respect to the deferred gain when it is recognized. Investors should consult their own tax advisors in determining whether an interest in the QOF has been sold or exchanged for purposes of this deferral provision.

***Increased reporting and compliance costs and risk of penalties under the OBBBA.***

The OBBBA has significantly expanded reporting and compliance obligations on QOFs, including the Fund. The new regime requires detailed annual information returns, substantially increasing the scope and complexity of data that must be collected, verified, and reported to the U.S. Department of the Treasury. As a result, compliance with the new reporting requirements will impose additional administrative costs on the Fund. In addition, if the Fund fails to comply with these new reporting requirements, it may be subject to penalties of up to $50,000, with enhanced penalties for intentional non-compliance. The increased compliance costs and penalties, if any, may adversely affect the Fund's operations and returns.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

***The Fund engaged in certain transactions in 2025 which may impact its ability to qualify as a QOF and/or require investors in the Fund to recognize income in respect of their deferred gain***

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund entered into the EPIC Merger and WEPCO transactions described herein pursuant to which the Fund acquired and consolidated assets and liabilities from other entities (via contribution or merger), in part in a manner intended to qualify as a "merger or consolidation" within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1400Z2(b)-1(c)(6)(ii)(C)(2) and in part as a tax-deferred contribution governed by Section 721(a) of the Code (the "Intended Tax Treatment"). In connection with these transactions, the Fund has received advice from qualified tax advisors that the transactions should qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment and should not result in an "inclusion event" within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.1400Z2(b)-1(c)(1). Accordingly, we do not expect these transactions to adversely affect the Fund's ability to satisfy the Asset Test and hence its ability to qualify as a QOF, nor do we expect them to cause investors in the Fund to recognize income in respect of their deferred gain. However, the advice and opinions received represent the judgment of counsel and are not binding on the IRS or any court. We have not requested, and do not intend to request, a ruling from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of these transactions. As a result, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not disagree with or challenge the Intended Tax Treatment or any of the conclusions reached by counsel, or that a court would sustain such treatment if challenged. If the IRS were to successfully assert a contrary position, the Fund's ability to satisfy the Asset Test and hence maintain its status as a QOF could be adversely affected, and/or investors in the Fund could be required to recognize income in respect of their deferred gain, either of which could have a material adverse effect on investment returns.

***State and local tax law may not follow the Opportunity Zone statute.***

The Opportunity Zone statute provides for benefits with respect to U.S. federal income tax law, but it is unclear the extent, if any, to which these benefits will be available with respect to state or local taxes. If state or local taxes do not incorporate the federal statute, or incorporate it only in part, investors may be subject to state and local tax on the capital gain invested in a QOF in the year the investment is made and subject to tax on any appreciation on such invested gain when their Unit is sold or exchanged (or certain other events occur). Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors on the potential state and local tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

***Investments of the Fund may be subject to increases in certain state or local taxes.***

In the November 8, 2022 general election, a City of Los Angeles ballot measure, Proposition ULA, proposed to increase transfer tax rates in the City of Los Angeles on real estate sales valued at $5 million or more. Proposition ULA was approved and is effective as of April 1, 2023. When enacted, the new rate would be 4% for properties valued at $5 million or more and 5.5% for properties valued at more than $10 million. Fourteen (14) of our properties are located in the City of Los Angeles, when Proposition ULA is effective, it will reduce the amount of proceeds that we will receive when we sell our Los Angeles properties. This in turn may reduce our profitability, make our properties located in the City of Los Angeles less attractive than properties located elsewhere, and make us less competitive than other funds that do not have properties in the City of Los Angeles.

***The Fund may be audited by U.S. federal, state or local income tax authorities. Such an audit may result in an increased income tax liability of the Partners of the Fund.***

If the IRS audits the Fund under the partnership audit rules enacted by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (the "BBA Rules"), the Fund itself will generally be responsible for paying any "imputed underpayment" of tax resulting from audit adjustments (including interest and penalties) in the taxable year during which the audit is finalized, unless the Fund makes an election pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code (which the Fund may or may not make). If the Fund makes such election, the audit adjustments (together with interest and penalties) at the Fund level will be assessed against the partners of the Fund.

As a result, under the BBA Rules, Partners in the year of the adjustment, rather than Partners in the year under audit, may effectively bear the cost of such adjustments. A Partner that redeems or transfers all or a portion of its Units of the Fund will, however, remain liable for its share of "imputed underpayment" (including interest and penalties) of the Fund relating to the taxable years (or portions thereof) of the Fund before the redemption or transfer of such Unit, and the General Partner may (but is not obligated to) require such Partner to pay its share of such adjustments (including any adjustments that relate to the redeemed or transferred portion of the Units). Instead of the Fund paying the "imputed underpayment" (including interest and penalties) as described above, the General Partner (or a person appointed by it) may (but is not obligated to) make an election pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code to cause any such audit adjustments (together with interest and penalties) to be assessed instead against the Partners of the Fund. Any audit of the Fund may increase the risk that the IRS or other taxing authority audits an individual investor, including with respect to such

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

investor's tax positions relating to the QOF regime and tax benefits associated therewith. Because, as discussed above, the uncertainty of the QOF regime likely means that the Fund will take uncertain tax positions, the risk of audit with respect to the Fund may be meaningfully higher than in the case of an investment fund that is not intended to operate as a QOF.

***The Fund faces a potential for recapture of investment tax credits.***

The Fund has invested, and may continue to invest, in projects that generate investment tax credits ("ITCs"). Certain ITCs are subject to "recapture" if the projects are sold or cease to be qualifying property (e.g., the facility ceases to be in service) within five years of such projects being placed in service (the "Recapture Period"). The recapture is 100% of the ITC if it occurs within the first year after the project is placed in service and then reduces on a ratable basis (i.e., 20% per year) over each succeeding year within the Recapture Period. ITC investments may be made by entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such cases, a recapture event could include a direct or indirect sale of the applicable partnership interests or a reduction in a partner's direct or indirect share of profits of such partnership during the Recapture Period. Situations could arise where a recapture event occurs at the partner level and the Fund is required to make a recapture payment to the Internal Revenue Service. For example, it is possible that the Fund might own an investment through a partnership (the "Investing Partnership") that directly owns the facility that generates an ITC. If ITCs with respect to such investment are claimed, such ITCs may be allocated to the Fund in respect of its ownership of such facility through the Investing Partnership, or such ITCs could be sold by the Investing Partnership. Claimed ITCs may be subject to recapture if during the Recapture Period the Fund has its proportionate interest in the general profits of the Investing Partnership (or in the facility) reduced below two-thirds of its proportionate interest in the general profits of such Investing Partnership (or in the facility) for the year in which such facility was placed in service. The foregoing may occur as a result of a sale of an interest in Investing Partnership, the admission of a new investor in Investing Partnership, or the operation of distribution provisions in partnership agreements for Investing Partnership that reduce the Fund's distribution entitlements with respect to such facility by more than one-third as compared to such entitlements in the year the facility was placed in service. If recapture were to occur, the Fund could owe certain tax liabilities, including penalties and interest, based on the recaptured ITCs. If such ITCs were sold to a third-party purchaser for a price that is less than the amount of the ITCs transferred, the amount of recapture could exceed the cash received for the sale of such ITCs. As of December 31, 2025, two Investing Partnerships sold certain ITCs generated by their renewable energy projects and the Fund distributed its share of the proceeds from such sale to Limited Partners. The ITCs from such transaction may be subject to full or partial recapture for five years as described above. Furthermore, Limited Partners that receive distributions of proceeds from the sale of ITCs could be subject to recapture with respect to such ITCs if the investor redeems or transfers an interest in the Fund such that their entitlement to distributions from the Fund is reduced by more than one third as compared to the year in which the project that generated the ITC was placed in service.

***Government counterparties may have the discretion to change or increase regulation of a Portfolio Asset's operations, or implement laws and/or regulations affecting the Portfolio Asset's operations, separate from any contractual rights it may have.***

A Portfolio Asset could be materially and adversely affected as a result of statutory and/or regulatory changes and/or judicial and/or administrative interpretations of existing laws and/or regulations that impose more comprehensive or stringent requirements on such company.

In addition, governments have considerable discretion in implementing regulations that could impact a Portfolio Asset's business, including, for example, the possible imposition or increase of taxes on income earned by a portfolio entity or gains recognized by the Fund on its acquisition, operation and/or disposition of such portfolio entity, and governments may be influenced by political considerations and may make decisions that adversely affect a Portfolio Asset's business. There can be no assurance that the relevant governmental entities will not legislate, impose regulations, and/or change applicable laws or act contrary to the law in a way that would materially and adversely affect the business of the Portfolio Assets. The Fund or a Portfolio Asset may be unable to effectively pursue legal remedies against governmental entities for a breach of contractual obligations or other violations of their legal rights.

*The Fund's Cybersecurity Risk Management Approach*

The Fund utilizes and relies on CIM for its IT and IT administration. CIM's cybersecurity strategy prioritizes detection, analysis and response to known, anticipated or unexpected threats, effective management of security risks and

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

resiliency against incidents. CIM's cybersecurity risk management policies and procedures include, among other things: enterprise-wide hardware and software management and security controls; employee training; security assessments; penetration testing; security audits and ongoing risk assessments; due diligence on, and monitoring and oversight of, key third-party providers; vulnerability management; and management oversight to assess, identify and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats. CIM's controls leverage the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cyber Security Framework. CIM also utilizes industry and government associations, the results from regular internal and third-party audits and other similar resources to inform its cybersecurity processes and to allocate resources.

In addition, all CIM employees receive mandatory training on cybersecurity matters at such employee's new hire and annually thereafter, periodic training and information updates that address new cybersecurity threats and trends, and quarterly "phishing" and social engineering testing to evaluate the effectiveness of the cybersecurity training program and raise employee awareness of cybersecurity threats.

In 2025, we did not identify any cybersecurity threats that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. However, despite our efforts, we cannot eliminate all risks from cybersecurity threats, or provide assurances that we have not experienced undetected cybersecurity incidents.

For further discussion of cybersecurity risks, see "Item 1A. Risk Factors—Cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents may adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information, and or damage to our business relationships, all of which could negatively impact the Fund."

*Management Oversight of Cybersecurity Risk Management*

CIM's internal processes require escalation of material cybersecurity risks to its management and its Cybersecurity Committee (the "Committee") for evaluation. The Committee consists of CIM's Head of Enterprise Technology, CIM's Chief Compliance Officer (the "CCO"), CIM's Head of Transformation as well as representatives from CIM's operations, technology and compliance departments as needed. The Committee is responsible for CIM's cybersecurity policy and overseeing the activities of CIM's cybersecurity practices, including assessing CIM's risks and controls. The Committee is chaired by CIM's Head of Enterprise Technology and collectively the group has more than 30 years' experience in the field of information technology, cybersecurity and adjacent roles, including serving on cybersecurity advisory councils. In addition, members of the Committee have relevant industry experience in enterprise risk management and compliance.

The Committee has established a Cybersecurity Subcommittee (the "Subcommittee"). The Subcommittee consists of, among others, the CCO, CIM's Head of Transformation, the chief financial officers of CIM companies that are subject to the SEC's cybersecurity rule adopted in 2023 and are managed by CIM. The Subcommittee is tasked with assisting CIM-managed companies that are subject to the SEC's cybersecurity rule adopted in 2023, including us, in complying with such cybersecurity rule.

The Committee and Subcommittee each conduct both regular quarterly and as-needed meetings throughout the year during which members of the CIM's IT Department provide updates and report on meaningful cybersecurity risks, threats, incidents and vulnerabilities in accordance with the Committee's and the Subcommittee's respective reporting frameworks, as well as related priorities, mitigation and remediation activities, financial and employee resource levels, regulatory compliance, technology trends and third-party provider risks. To help inform this reporting framework, CIM maintains incident response plans and other policies and procedures designed to respond to, mitigate and remediate cybersecurity incidents based on the potential impact to CIM's business, IT systems, network or data, including data held by third parties, or to the IT or other critical services provided by third-party vendors and service providers.

CIM's personnel responsible for cybersecurity policy comprises of individuals with either formal education and degrees in IT or cybersecurity, or with experience working in IT and cybersecurity, including relevant industry experience in security related industries.

We believe that the processes, policies and procedures established by the Committee and the Subcommittee provide guidance for consistent and effective incident handling and response and set standards for internal notifications and escalations, as well as external notification considerations with respect to a cybersecurity event or incident requiring disclosure or notification in accordance with applicable laws.

Pursuant to CIM's cybersecurity policy, management of the Fund will be promptly notified of any material cybersecurity incident required to be disclosed under Item 105 of Regulation S-K and shall oversee the Fund's response to such matter.

**PART II**

**ITEM 5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES**

**Market Information**

As of December 31, 2025, the Fund had 1,893,661 limited partnership units outstanding, held by a total of 3,057 limited partners (holders of units).

The Partnership has and will continue to offer and sell Units in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act under Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D. There is no public market for our Units currently, nor can we give any assurance that one will develop.

Because our Units are being acquired by investors in one or more transactions "not involving a public offering," they are "restricted securities" and may be required to be held indefinitely. Our Units may not be sold or transferred (i) except as permitted under the Partnership Agreement and (ii) unless the Units are registered under applicable securities laws or specifically exempted from registration. Accordingly, an investor must be willing to bear the economic risk of investment in the Units unless and until we accept their repurchase or transfer. No sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or other disposition, whether voluntary or involuntary, of the Units may be made except by registration of the transfer on our books. Each transferee will be required to execute an instrument agreeing to be bound by these restrictions and the other restrictions imposed on the Units and to execute such other instruments or certifications as are reasonably required by us.

**Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities**

Since March 2019, we have commenced and continue to commence, various private placement offerings of our Units. We are offering these securities in reliance upon exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D under the Securities Act relating to sales not involving any public offering. The securities are being offered and sold only to purchasers who are "accredited investors," as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, without the use of general solicitation, as that concept is embodied in Regulation D. As of December 31, 2025, we have sold 1,956,460 units resulting in gross offering proceeds of approximately $2.2 billion. The following table summarizes our sales of unregistered securities for each of the last three fiscal years:

---

**Distributions and Reinvestment**

The Fund may distribute available current proceeds pro rata to the Partners in accordance with their percentage interests at such time and in such amounts, if any, as determined by the General Partner in its discretion. Any distributions shall be made in cash and/or in-kind, as determined by the General Partner in its reasonable discretion and shall be made pro rata to the Partners in accordance with their percentage interests. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund has made total income distributions of $206.0 million to all the Partners. As an open-ended Opportunity Zone Fund, the distribution of profits to the partners is typically deferred until the year of the applicable Inclusion Date.

The amount and timing of distributions of cash available from any Portfolio Asset will be made at the reasonable discretion of the General Partner. The General Partner may elect not to make a distribution and instead reinvest and use

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

such amounts for other purposes permitted by the Partnership Agreement (including to withhold from distribution any amounts necessary to repay borrowings, pay Partnership Expenses (as defined below), establish reserves or to fulfill redemption requests with respect to Units). Distributions may be adjusted by the General Partner, in its sole discretion, to the extent necessary to reflect any amortization of Organizational Expenses. The amount of any cash available from Portfolio Assets that is reinvested in the Partnership on behalf of a Limited Partner will not reduce such Limited Partner's Undrawn Capital Commitment.

**ITEM 7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We make statements in this section that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. For cautions about relying on such forward-looking statements, please see "Forward-Looking Statements" at the beginning of this report immediately prior to "Item 1—Business" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

***Overview***

The Fund was formed on November 1, 2018 and commenced operations on January 21, 2019, and is governed by the Partnership Agreement. The Fund is organized as an open-ended vehicle for the purpose of investing in infrastructure and real estate, through entities that acquire, own, develop or re-develop and operate infrastructure and real estate assets in Opportunity Zones, with the objective of generating returns from capital appreciation and operating income once development of these assets is complete. The Fund's assets under development had plans in place or were developed at the time of the Fund's acquisition that are strategic to each asset achieving current income and appreciation of value. The Fund engages third parties or affiliates of the Manager (also referred to as the "development manager") to provide development management services, and in consideration the Fund pays development management fees.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund entered into agreements to form Westlands Electric Power Company, LLC ("WEPCO"), a power company intending to capitalize on the long-term, secular trends within the US energy markets. WEPCO is a newly-formed company that holds solar investments previously held by the Fund and other CIM-affiliated entities. The transaction was consummated over three phases, with the Fund eventually owning approximately 66.7% of the interests in WEPCO (whether directly or through subsidiaries) once the transaction was fully completed.

WEPCO owns operating solar projects, including those contributed by the Fund, as well as development projects that are expected to qualify for solar tax credits and generate revenue from off-taker agreements that have either been executed or are in active negotiations. WEPCO is expected to continue to invest in an ongoing pipeline of both renewable and non-renewable assets in the long run across Opportunity Zones.

***Portfolio Information***

As of December 31, 2025, we had interests in 19 investments with a carrying value of $2.6 billion. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund increased its interest in the Dallas Consolidated Joint Venture as a result of the Epic Merger, and the Fund contributed its interests in solar projects, including both of its investments in unconsolidated entities, in exchange for interests in WEPCO.

---

*Solar revenue*

The decrease in solar revenue of $74.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was due to the the Fund entering into power purchase agreements with lower overall fixed rates in 2025, partially due to the longer-term nature of the contracts, as compared to the agreements in place during the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was partially offset by increased revenue resulting from the increased interests in solar projects that the Fund received as part of the WEPCO transaction. In addition, we have separately recognized a $117.4 million realized gain on net investment in lease during the year ended December 31, 2025 related to a new power purchase agreement, as further described below.

*Rental and other property income*

The increase in rental and other property income of $2.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to increased occupancy at the Fund's operational properties subsequent to December 31, 2024. The increase was also due to an investment property previously under development being placed into service during the current year.

*Solar and property operating expense*

The decrease in solar and property operating expense of $5.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to the amendment of solar contracts in 2025 which changed the basis of expense from volume to capacity. The decrease was partially offset by increases in operating expenses in connection with the hotel placed in service during the year ended December 31, 2025.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

*Management fees to related party*

Management fees are calculated based on each Limited Partner's Management Fee percentage multiplied by their proportionate share of NAV as of the beginning of the quarter.

The increase in management fees of $2.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to an increase in NAV driven by additional capital raised. From December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025, the Fund accepted an additional $100.2 million in capital contributions.

*Transaction-related costs*

Transaction-related costs during the year ended December 31, 2025 were related to expenses incurred in connection with the WEPCO transaction. No such costs were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Expense reimbursement to related parties*

The Manager receives reimbursement for performing certain services for the Fund and its subsidiaries.

The increase in expense reimbursement to related parties of $1.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to expenses incurred in connection with the WEPCO transaction.

*Interest expense and other*

Interest expense and other also includes amortization of deferred financing costs.

The increase in interest expense and other of $648,000 during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to tax related interest assessed during the period, offset by decreased interest rates subsequent to December 31, 2024.

*General and administrative expenses*

General and administrative expenses consist of legal, third-party administrator expenses, audit and tax expenses, banking fees and corporate expenses.

The increase in general and administrative expenses of $965,000 during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily due to increased legal fees in connection with the WEPCO transaction during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024.

*Depreciation and amortization*

The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $6.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to the derecognition of the leased solar assets resulting from the sales-type lease entered into during the year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease was partially offset by depreciation and amortization expense from assets placed in service during the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Real estate tax*

The increase in real estate tax of $1.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was due to increased property taxes in relation to reassessments of the Fund's properties that became operational during the current year.

*Interest income*

Interest income consists of amounts received on interest-bearing accounts.

The increase in interest income of $15.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to $18.0 million in interest income relating to a sales-type lease recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was partially offset by lower balances in our interest-bearing accounts.

*Other income*

The increase in other income of $28.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily due to a gain recognized on the termination of the Fund's below-market REC agreement in connection with Phase 2 of the WEPCO transaction during the year ended December 31, 2025.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

*Realized gain on net investment in lease*

Realized gain on net investment in lease was $117.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 resulting from a sales-type lease in a power purchase agreement that was entered into during the year ended December 31, 2025. No such gain was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Gain (loss) on investments in unconsolidated entities*

Gain (loss) on investments in unconsolidated entities reflect the changes in fair value of the Fund's investments in unconsolidated entities.

Gain on investments in unconsolidated entities was $4.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the $20.6 million loss for the same period in 2024. The change was due to an increase in the valuation of the portfolio assets held by the unconsolidated entities. Both of the Fund's investments in unconsolidated entities were contributed to WEPCO during the year ended December 31, 2025, as further discussed in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 — Investments in Real Estate.

*Change in fair value of notes payable*

We have elected the fair value option for our notes payable*.* Changes in fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

The change in fair value of notes payable was $31.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $16.8 million during the same period in 2024. The change primarily resulted from the change in fair value of the Fund's Convertible Note prior to its conversion during the period, as further described in Note 3 — Fair Value Measurements and Note 7 — Debt to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

*Net income attributable to non-controlling interests*

The change in net income attributable to non-controlling interests was primarily due to increased income at the Fund's infrastructure segment, the interests of which are 33.3% held by non-controlling interest holders subsequent to the WEPCO transaction. Net income allocated to the non-controlling interest holders was $15.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to a net income allocated to the non-controlling interest holders of $1.2 million during the same period in 2024.

***Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources***

***General***

We expect to utilize proceeds from net cash provided by operations and capital contributions to finance our future acquisitions of and additions to investments. The sources of our operating cash flow will primarily be provided by rental income received from current and future leased properties and solar income from infrastructure assets.

***Liquidity and Capital Resources***

We expect to generate cash primarily from the net proceeds from our continuous private offering of our Units in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, cash flows from our operating assets, and any financing arrangements we may enter into in the future.

Our primary needs for liquidity and capital resources are to fund our investments in portfolio entities and other investments, pay our operating fees and expenses (including the Management Fee and Incentive Allocation), pay any distributions that we make to the holders of our units, periodic repurchases under the Redemption Program, and pay interest on any outstanding indebtedness that we incur.

We expect to obtain the liquidity and capital resources that we need over the short and long-term from cash on hand, the proceeds of our private offerings and from any undistributed funds from operations. For additional detail regarding our private offering, see "<u>[Part II, Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities-Use of Proceeds from Registered Sales of Securities](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_58)</u>."

We currently anticipate that our available capital resources, including the proceeds from our private offering and the proceeds from any financing arrangements we may enter into, when combined with cash flow generated from our operating

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

assets, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements over the next 12 months and beyond.

***Contractual Obligations***

As of December 31, 2025, we had fixed and variable rate mortgage loans payable with an outstanding principal balance of $530.2 million and fair value of $512.8 million. The Fund's mortgage notes payable are collateralized by the respective property on which the debt was placed. The mortgage notes payable are nonrecourse, and contain various restrictions and covenants with which the Fund was in compliance as of December 31, 2025.

***Cash Flows***

The following table provides a breakdown of the net change in our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (amounts in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** |
| | **2025** | **2024** |
| Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities | $19430 | $87597 |
| Net Cash Used In Investing Activities | (223785) | (255696) |
| Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities | 285047 | 105174 |
| Net Change In Cash And Cash Equivalents And Restricted Cash | $80692 | $(62925) |

---

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $421.3 million and $340.6 million, respectively.

Net cash provided by operating activities for both the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 primarily relates to rental and solar income received and interest income received on our cash-bearing accounts during the period. These inflows are offset by cash flows used in operating activities, which includes the payment of management fees as well as payments for interest expense, property operating expenses and marketing, legal, tax and accounting fees.

Cash flows used in investing activities for both the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 primarily relates to acquisitions and additions to our investments. For additional details regarding our investments, see "<u>[Part I, Item 2 — Properties](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_46)</u>."

Cash flows provided by financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 primarily relates to net debt activity and proceeds from capital contributions, offset by distributions and redemptions paid.

***Related Parties***

See "Note 9 — Management Fees, Incentive Allocation and Other Related-Party Transactions" to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a description of certain transactions and relationships with related parties.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

Our accounting policies have been established to conform with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Management believes that we have made these estimates and assumptions in an appropriate manner and in a way that accurately reflects our financial condition. We continually test and evaluate these estimates and assumptions using our historical knowledge of the business, as well as other factors, to ensure that they are reasonable for reporting purposes. However, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.

We believe the following critical accounting policies govern the significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, which should be read in conjunction with the more complete

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

discussion of our significant accounting policies are described in "Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

*Recoverability of Real Estate and Infrastructure Assets*

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, investments in real estate and infrastructure are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, the recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets and its eventual disposition. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment is recognized to the extent the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of the asset's carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.

Our process for evaluating real estate impairment requires management to make significant assumptions related to certain inputs, including rental rates, lease-up period, occupancy, estimated holding periods, capital expenditures, growth rates, market discount rates and terminal capitalization rates. These inputs require a subjective evaluation based on the specific property and market. Changes in the assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value, the amount of impairment charge, if any, or both.

*Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs*

We account for property acquisitions as asset acquisitions. We allocate the purchase price for asset acquisitions, which includes the capitalized transaction costs, and for the properties upon the initial consolidation of VIEs not determined to be a business, on a relative fair value basis to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective relative fair values. The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are estimated based on the price that would be received to sell an investment in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date consistent with the guidance in ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurements* ("ASC 820"). Tangible assets consist of land, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements. Intangible assets and liabilities consist of above- and below-market lease values, above- and below-market solar agreements, and the value of in-place leases. Our purchase price allocations are developed utilizing third-party appraisal reports, industry standards and management experience, developed using valuation techniques consistent with the guidance in ASC 820. There are risks and uncertainties involved in applying the principles related to purchase price allocations. The value allocated to land, as opposed to buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements, affects the amount of depreciation expense we record. If more value is attributed to land, depreciation expense is lower than if more value is attributed to buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements. Intangible lease assets and liabilities can be significantly affected by estimates including market rent, lease terms including renewal options at rental rates below estimated market rental rates, carrying costs of the property during a hypothetical expected lease-up period, and current market conditions and costs, including tenant improvement allowances and rent concessions. We determine whether any financing assumed is above- or below-market based upon comparison to similar financing terms for similar types of debt financing with similar maturities.

*Fair Value Measurements*

*Investments in Unconsolidated Entities, at Fair Value* — We have elected the fair value option for our other real estate related investments for which such election is permitted, as provided for under ASC 825, *Financial Instruments* ("ASC 825"). Electing the fair value option allows us to record changes in fair value in our consolidated statement of operations. The valuation of the Fund's investments in unconsolidated entities are prepared by third-party valuation firms in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice ("USPAP"). The fair values of investments are estimated based on the price that would be received to sell an investment in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date consistent with the guidance in ASC 820. Investments without a public market are valued based on applicable valuation techniques. Such valuation techniques include discounted cash flow analysis, applying market capitalization rates or earnings multiples to earnings from the investment, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sale negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties, consideration of the amount that currently would be required to replace the asset, as adjusted for obsolescence, as well as independent external appraisals. In general, multiple valuation techniques are taken into consideration when measuring the fair value of an investment. However, in certain circumstances, a single valuation may be appropriate, such as during the development phase of the project, where the "Cost Method" may be most appropriate for construction in progress, with the "Comparative Sales Approach" applied to the value of the underlying land. Upon completion, the investment would typically be valued utilizing the discounted cash flow ("DCF") and comparative sales approaches. Weighting of the

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

appraisal methods represents an approximation of how marketplace participants would underwrite the investment in current market conditions as of the measurement date.

The weighting of valuation methodologies occurs in the reconciliation phase of the appraisal process and represents an approximation of how marketplace participants would underwrite the investment in current market conditions as of the measurement date. In the reconciliation process, appraisers weight the various approaches based on the quantity and quality of the data that was available for the analysis, including the number of relevant comparable sales and other data points, as well as the degree to which the appraisers were able to verify them. Appraisers also consider the typical behavior and attributes of the most likely purchasers of the property, including whether they would most likely be local, regional or national in size, and whether they are expected to be investors, owner-users, or partial owner-users. It is up to the appraisers to determine which approaches to value are applicable and what weight to apply to each approach utilized. In arriving at an as-is value, appraisers reflect how market participants would value a property by viewing it as a typical buyer would. For income-producing properties, the income approach, and specifically the DCF analysis, receives primary consideration. Comparable sales are also analyzed as a secondary method, providing indications of reasonable value per square foot as well as cap rates. The "Cost Method" is relied upon less frequently, but will receive a heavier weighting in situations where the subject asset has been recently developed or is under construction. Ultimately, assuming that there is sufficient data in the market to support the appraisers' analysis, all three approaches should broadly support the concluded value, even if the appraisers place primarily weight on one approach in order to mirror investor behavior.

*Redeemable Partners' Capital* — Redeemable limited partnership units are initially recorded as the contribution amount under redeemable partners' capital in the consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently remeasured at the net asset value as determined in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. Net asset value is calculated as U.S. GAAP partners' equity adjusted for the redemption value of our limited partnership units. The judgements involved in the valuation are the same as those described above in "investments in unconsolidated entities, at fair value."

*Notes Payable* — We have elected the fair value option for our notes payable pursuant to ASC 825*.* The fair value of notes payable is determined by a third-party appraiser who discounts the difference between contract and market debt service cash flows using a market equity yield. The third-party appraiser also considers multiple valuation techniques (e.g., par, prepayment penalty) and applies a reconciliation among relevant methods. The fair value analysis is updated quarterly and reviewed by senior management. The market rate is determined by giving consideration to one or more of the following criteria, as appropriate: (i) interest rates for loan of comparable quality and maturity and (ii) the value of the underlying collateral.

CIM maintains a Valuation Committee to oversee the valuation process. The committee is comprised of the Chief Valuation Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, a member of Senior Management and the Chief Compliance Officer of CIM. The Valuation Committee typically obtains a full appraisal on each asset at least annually, and limited scope updates at least quarterly, from a qualified third-party appraiser as part of the valuation process. CIM's valuation policy described above is in place at the time of this filing, but is subject to change in the discretion of CIM.

*Estimates*

Many of our accounting policies require judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions when applying these policies in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments based on historical experience as well as other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Any differences of opinion that arise as to assumptions and metrics utilized in the valuation are discussed and resolved through analysis and comparison to published benchmarks and reference to recent market transactions. These estimates are subject to change in the future if underlying assumptions or factors change. Certain accounting policies, while significant, may not require the use of estimates. The recent accounting changes that may potentially impact our business, if any, are described under "Recent Accounting Pronouncements" in "Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

None.

**ITEM 9A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that no controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of December 31, 2025 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of December 31, 2025, were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

**Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in "Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

No change occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended December 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**ITEM 9B.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;OTHER INFORMATION**

None of our officers or directors had any contract, instruction, or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) or any "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" in effect at any time during the three months ended December 31, 2025.

**ITEM 9C.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DISCLOSURE REGARDING FOREIGN JURISDICTION THAT PREVENT INSPECTIONS.**

***Investment Committee***

All investments led by the Fund are reviewed and approved by the Investment Committee. Investments led by other CIM Vehicles that are shared by the Fund are reviewed and approved by a subset of the Investment Committee to ensure that investments led by other CIM Vehicles are consistent with the Fund's investment mandate and the portfolio allocation described herein. The Investment Committee has delegated its preliminary investment authority with respect to real estate equity investments to the Investment Committee – Preliminary Subcommittee who will approve the due diligence budget. In order to avoid conflicts of interest, certain members of the Investment Committee do not have a vote in connection with potential investments within their respective sector.

***Insider Trading Policies and Procedures***

There is no trading market for our Units. As such, the Fund has not adopted insider trading policies and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of securities by directors, officers, employees and the Fund itself.

**ITEM 11.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION**

***Compensation of Executive Officers***

We have no employees. Our executive officers, including our principal financial officer, are employed by affiliates of CIM and do not receive compensation directly from us for services rendered to us, and we do not intend to pay any compensation directly to our executive officers. As a result, we do not have, and our General Partner has not considered, a compensation policy or program for our executive officers.

Our executive officers are also officers of our manager and/or other CIM affiliates, and are compensated by CIM for their services to us. We pay fees to such entities under our Partnership Agreement, which agreements also provide for the reimbursement of allocable costs and expenses to CIM for their provision of administrative services, including related personnel costs, subject to certain limitations. A description of the fees that we pay to our manager and investment advisor or any affiliate thereof is found in the "Certain relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence" section below.

***Fees and Expenses***

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

***Incentive Allocation***

The Incentive Allocation is calculated by the Fund pursuant to the Partnership Agreement. The General Partner or an affiliate thereof or other designee of the General Partner will be allocated net profits (the "Incentive Allocation") from the Limited Partners at the end of an Incentive Allocation Period, subject to certain performance hurdles being met. The General Partner receives an Incentive Allocation of 20% annually, which is a portion of profits or gains that the General Partner is entitled to above a minimum return threshold. The high watermark is a mechanism that ensures the General Partner only receives an Incentive Allocation if the fund's value surpasses the highest previous value. This means that if the Fund's value decreases below the high watermark, the General Partner will not receive any Incentive Allocation until the value exceeds the previous high point. The hurdle rate, which is set at 6%, is a minimum rate of return that the fund needs to achieve before the General Partner becomes eligible for the Incentive Allocation. The General Partner is entitled to an 80% catch-up provision once the hurdle rate is met, which means that once the hurdle rate is surpassed, the General Partner will receive 80% of the profits or gains until they have caught up to their entitled share.

As of December 31, 2025, the General Partner has designated CIM Opportunity Zone Fund SLP, LLC (the "SLP"), an affiliated Limited Partner of the Fund, to receive the Incentive Allocation. The General Partner may, in its sole discretion, waive, reduce, calculate differently or defer allocation of all or a portion of the Incentive Allocation attributable to any capital account of any Limited Partner.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, the total realized Incentive Allocation to the SLP was $7.9 million. There was no realized Incentive Allocation to the SLP during the year ended December 31, 2025.

***Management Fees***

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement and the Management Agreement, the Fund will pay to the Manager for investment management services in advance on a quarterly basis, management fees (the "Management Fees") with respect to each Limited Partner.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Management Fee percentage rate applicable to Units subscribed for on or prior to June 30, 2019 was reduced by 25 basis points during the Lock-Up Period applicable to such Units. Additionally, the applicable Management Fee rate may vary based on the investor's aggregate total commitments if designated in a side letter agreement with the investor's investment advisor. The Management Fees are calculated based on each Limited Partner's Management Fee percentage, which ranged from 1.25% to 2.0% as of December 31, 2025, multiplied by their proportionate share of NAV as of the beginning of the quarter.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the weighted average quarterly NAV applicable for the management fee calculation was $2.3 billion and the weighted average annualized management fee rate was 1.75%.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the total Management Fees to the Fund were $40.8 million and $38.0 million, respectively.

***Servicing Fees***

The Fund and/or its Portfolio Assets may, from time to time, require other services ("Other Services"). The General Partner, the Manager or entities related to the General Partner or the Manager may, at the General Partner's election and in the General Partner's sole discretion, enter into contracts with the Fund and/or the Portfolio Assets to provide all or part of such Other Services that would otherwise be provided by a third party to the Fund and/or its Portfolio Assets. Pursuant to such contracts, the General Partner, the Manager or entities related to the General Partner or the Manager may receive from the Fund and/or its Portfolio Assets, (i) property management fees, (ii) development management fees, (iii) leasing brokerage fees, (iv) fees associated with arranging financings for Portfolio Assets, (v) multifamily residential sales fees, (vi) fees relating to servicing and administering the Portfolio Assets, including special servicing, (vii) fees in connection with or following a foreclosure on the Portfolio Asset and (viii) other related fees in connection with a Portfolio Asset (collectively, "Servicing Fees"). Such Servicing Fees are and may be in the future paid by third parties. Such Servicing Fees will be either (x) at rates which do not exceed the limits set forth immediately below, (y) at rates that are no less favorable to the Fund and/or such Portfolio Asset than the arm's-length rates on which the Fund and/or such Portfolio Asset could obtain comparable services from an unaffiliated service provider taking into account the nature of the relevant asset type and the special services required or (z) at rates that receive the consent of a Review Agent or the Limited Partners:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Property Management Fees*: Not to exceed 5.0% of gross property revenues, plus allocable costs and expenses;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Development Management Fees*: Not to exceed 4.0% of gross contract price for development, tenant improvements or other capital expenditures, as applicable, plus allocable costs and expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Leasing Brokerage Fees*: Not to exceed 4.0% of base rent during lease years one through five; 2.0% of base rent after lease year five, in each case, plus allocable costs and expenses. In transactions where there is a participating broker(s), not to exceed 2.0% of base rent during lease years one through five; 1.0% of base rent after year five, in each case, plus allocable costs and expenses; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Multifamily Residential Sales Fees*: Not to exceed 6.0% of the gross sales price of a residential unit, plus allocable costs and expenses.

On an annual basis, the General Partner will provide any Review Agent with Servicing Fee rates (unless such Servicing Fee rates are deemed approved) and the Review Agent will have the right to suggest amendments to such rates within 30 calendar days of being notified. A third-party expert will determine Servicing Fee rates in the event the Review Agent and the General Partner cannot agree. Servicing Fees will be paid to the General Partner, the Manager or related entities even if a third party is also providing the same or similar services to the Fund and/or its Portfolio Assets; provided, that, in such instances, such Servicing Fees, other than leasing brokerage fees, payable to the General Partner, the Manager or related entities will be reduced to the extent of any fees paid to such third party in respect of such Other Services, but not below one-third of such Servicing Fees.

Servicing Fees will not constitute Other Fees (as defined below), will not reduce Management Fees and will not be included in calculating the reduction amount and may be paid by a Portfolio Asset directly to the General Partner, the Manager or related entities or may be paid by such Portfolio Asset to the Fund which will pass through such Servicing Fees, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, to the General Partner, the Manager or such related entities.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the total property management fees incurred were $2.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the total development fees and development-related allocable costs and expenses incurred were $25.9 million and $25.5 million, respectively, which are capitalized to the Fund's respective investments.

***Allocation of Opportunities; Co-Investments; Separate Accounts; Review Agent***

***Allocation of Opportunities***

CIM and its affiliates currently manage, sponsor and/or operate, and in the future will continue to manage, sponsor and/or operate, other funds or accounts, including separate accounts and similar arrangements (collectively, "CIM Vehicles"), with a variety of strategies, including strategies which may overlap with, or be identical to, that of the Fund. The General Partner and the Manager may be presented with opportunities that fall within the objective of the Fund and one or more CIM Vehicles, and in such circumstances, the General Partner will determine the allocation of such opportunities in good faith, taking into account relevant facts and circumstances and pursuant to CIM's allocation policy without deliberately and inappropriately favoring any one CIM Vehicle over another. Pursuant to such allocation policy, the Fund will not receive priority allocations of opportunities in Opportunity Zones. The investment allocation policy will be periodically reviewed and tested by CIM to ensure that the guidelines and controls contained therein are adequate to prevent the Fund or any CIM Vehicle from being systematically and inappropriately disadvantaged as a result of the allocation of opportunities.

The Manager has constituted an investment allocation committee (the "Investment Allocation Committee") to mitigate allocation risks. The Investment Allocation Committee is primarily responsible for implementing the Investment Allocation Policy, including resolving allocation conflicts. The Investment Allocation Committee is comprised of three Founding Principals and CIM's Chief Compliance Officer. The size, composition and policies of the Investment Allocation Committee may be changed from time to time.

If an opportunity may be suitable for two or more CIM Vehicles with similar or overlapping strategies that have the capacity to make such acquisition, the Investment Allocation Committee will determine the allocation by considering factors such as the following with respect to each of the Fund or the applicable CIM Vehicles and the relative weight that should be given with respect thereto: (i) the portfolio guidelines and/or restrictions, if any, set forth in the Fund's or such applicable CIM Vehicle's organizational documents; (ii) the risk and return profile of the Fund or the applicable CIM Vehicle; (iii) the suitability/priority of a particular asset for the Fund or the applicable CIM Vehicle; (iv) the level of available capital with respect to the Fund or the applicable CIM Vehicle; (v) the total amount of funds committed to the Fund or the applicable CIM Vehicle; and (vi) the age/vintage of the Fund and the applicable CIM Vehicle and the

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

remaining term of the applicable CIM Vehicle's acquisition period, if applicable. Pursuant to the Investment Allocation Policy, CIM seeks to manage the assets of each of the Fund and the CIM Vehicles consistent with the relevant objectives and not inappropriately favor the Fund over any CIM Vehicle or any CIM Vehicle over the Fund. Pursuant to the Investment Allocation Policy, CIM seeks to manage the assets of each of the Fund and the CIM Vehicles consistent with the relevant objectives and not inappropriately favor the Fund over any CIM Vehicle or any CIM Vehicle over the Fund.

If after considering various factors, the Investment Allocation Committee remains unable to determine allocation of an opportunity to two or more CIM Vehicles, a strict rotation system will be employed. Such CIM Vehicles will be listed on a rotation schedule in the order of their inception dates (i.e., date of the management agreement), from the latest to the earliest inception dates. The CIM Vehicle with the most recent inception date will, therefore, be placed first on the rotation schedule and will be the first to be offered the relevant opportunity.

***Co-Investment***

The General Partner may offer Limited Partners, other CIM Vehicles and/or other third parties the opportunity to co-invest in particular assets alongside the Fund. The General Partner, its affiliates, the Principals and/or entities controlled by one or more of the Principals may also participate in any co-investment opportunity. The terms and conditions of any co-investment opportunities will be determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion but also may be negotiated by the General Partner and the potential co-investor on a case-by-case basis. Co-investments may be structured as joint ventures in which the Fund and one or more joint venturers, including entities controlled and/or managed by CIM or its affiliates, participate side-by-side in the same Portfolio Asset. Such joint venture partners may or may not be subject to the same terms and conditions as the Fund, including with respect to liquidity rights, buying, selling or otherwise disposing of the underlying real asset and participating in other major decisions affecting the underlying real asset. In certain circumstances, a joint venture partner, rather than the Fund, may control a co-investment opportunity. Co-investment opportunities will be allocated as determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion and not all Limited Partners and other CIM Vehicles may be offered co- investment opportunities. The General Partner may take into consideration any factors it deems appropriate, including its own interests, in allocating co-investment opportunities. The General Partner (or an affiliate thereof) may make a contribution to any vehicle formed for a co-investment opportunity to the extent (but only to the extent) desirable for profit allocation treatment or for legal, tax, regulatory, accounting, structuring or other similar purposes. The Fund has not offered any co-investment opportunities to date.

***Review Agents***

*MLE Consulting Review Agent*

The General Partner has designated Marcie Edwards, on behalf of MLE Consulting Inc., as an independent representative of the Limited Partners for the purpose of consulting on matters giving rise to a conflict of interest (the "MLE Consulting Review Agent"). In each of the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Fund paid the MLE Consulting Review Agent an annual fee of $35,000 in exchange for the MLE Consulting Review Agent's services. Upon the General Partner's request, the MLE Consulting Review Agent has agreed to consult with the General Partner on matters giving rise to, or involving, a potential or actual conflict of interest. The Fund has agreed to reimburse the MLE Consulting Review Agent for certain of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. The MLE Consulting Review Agent is entitled to the benefit of certain indemnification and exculpation provisions, as described in the Partnership Agreement.

The conclusions of the MLE Consulting Review Agent, with respect to those matters presented for its consideration, will be conclusive and binding for the purposes of the Partnership Agreement.

If the General Partner designates a committee to act as a Review Agent, the General Partner will develop voting procedures for such Review Agent. The conclusions of a Review Agent, with respect to those matters presented for its consideration, will be conclusive and binding for the purposes of the Partnership Agreement. In December 2019, the General Partner designated Marcie Edwards, on behalf of MLE Consulting Inc.

Out-of-pocket expenses of a Review Agent and any fees charged by any independent representative acting as, or independent representatives that comprise all or a portion of the members of a committee that acts as, a Review Agent will be paid by the Fund. A Review Agent will be entitled to the benefit of certain indemnification and exculpation provisions, as described in the Partnership Agreement.

For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Fund engaged a Review Agent to review one and two transactions, respectively. For a description of the consummated transactions, see "—Consummated Affiliate Transactions and Purchases."

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

Any actual conflicts of interest that arise in relation to the Fund will be resolved in accordance with CIM's conflicts management procedures, including, where required, by referral to a Review Agent. CIM may in its discretion consult with the Review Agent regarding any potential conflict of interest. If the General Partner and the Manager act in a manner, or pursuant to standards or procedures, approved by a Review Agent with respect to such conflict of interest, then to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the General Partner, the Manager, CIM and their respective affiliates will not have any liability to the Fund or any Limited Partner for such actions in respect of such matter taken by them, including actions in pursuit of their own interests, and will be deemed to have satisfied their fiduciary duties with respect to such actions and to have acted in good faith with respect to such conflict. Moreover, the Review Agent may be a representative of a Limited Partner or a committee comprised of representatives of Limited Partners, who are also partner(s) in a CIM Vehicle that is co-investing with the Fund or who otherwise participates in other CIM Vehicles being presented with the same opportunities as the Fund.

***Warehoused Investments***

The acquisition by the third-party Limited Partners of an indirect interest through Units in the initial investment at cost (which may be higher than fair value) as of their closing date could give rise to a conflict of interest. In addition, the General Partner may have, in its discretion, determined to have the Fund acquire or purchase from CIM or its affiliates all or a portion of an initial investment made by CIM or its affiliates prior to the Initial Closing. Any such Initial Investment acquired from CIM or its affiliates were disclosed to the prospective Limited Partners in a supplement to the Memorandum prior to any closing date on which such prospective Limited Partners were required to make capital contributions to the Fund in respect of such Initial Investment.

Each Limited Partner, by acquiring Units, will be deemed to have acknowledged and consented to any actual or potential conflicts of interest relating to any Initial Investments and each Limited Partner, by executing its subscription agreement, will be deemed to have acknowledged and/or consented to (i) the issuance of an interim class of Units to the General Partner, its affiliates, the Principals and/or entities controlled by one or more of the Principals in respect of any Initial Investments, (ii) the return to the General Partner, its affiliates, the Principals and/or entities controlled by one or more of the Principals of any capital contributions they made to fund any such Initial Investments and redemption of their related Units and (iii) such Limited Partner's participation therein for all purposes, including to the extent required by applicable law.

The Fund (or a subsidiary partnership or other subsidiary special purpose vehicle of the Fund) may directly or indirectly acquire or purchase from one or more other CIM Vehicles (in each case, an "Affiliate Seller") all or a portion of any investment acquired or consummated prior to the Initial Closing or any other closing date by an Affiliate Seller (including, solely for this purpose, deposits) that purchased such investment with the intent to sell all or a portion of it to the Fund (or a subsidiary partnership or other subsidiary special purpose vehicle of the Fund) (all or a portion of such investments, "Warehoused Investments"). The projects known as Aquamarine Westside and Westlands Transmission were acquired from an affiliate of the Fund as Warehoused Investments. The Fund currently has no plans to acquire additional projects through a warehousing arrangement; however, the Fund has and may continue to acquire projects from affiliates as discussed in "Consummated Affiliated Transactions and Purchases," in accordance with the LPA.

Each Limited Partner, by acquiring Units, will be deemed to have acknowledged and consented to any actual or potential conflicts of interest relating to any Warehoused Investments and each Limited Partner, by executing its subscription agreement, will be deemed to have acknowledged and/or consented to (i) any arrangements and/or transactions relating to the transfer of such Warehoused Investments to the (or a subsidiary partnership or other subsidiary special purpose vehicle of the Fund) and (ii) such Limited Partner's participation therein for all purposes.

While CIM will seek to manage potential conflicts arising out of the potentially overlapping objectives of the Fund and certain CIM Vehicles, there can be no assurance in the case of overlapping opportunities that the return on the Fund's acquisition will be equivalent to or better than the returns obtained by the CIM Vehicles participating in such acquisitions.

***Overlaps of the Fund with other CIM Vehicles and Accounts***

As discussed in "Allocation of Opportunities" and subject to the provisions of the Agreements, on any matter involving a conflict of interest, CIM will be guided by certain fiduciary duties (as set forth in the governing documents) to the Limited Partners as well as to partners in the other CIM Vehicles and will manage such conflict in good faith and seek to ensure that the interests of the Fund and all affected CIM Vehicles are represented. However, if necessary to resolve such conflict, CIM reserves the right to cause the Fund to take such steps as may be necessary to minimize or eliminate the conflict, even if (subject to applicable law) that would require the Fund to (a) forego an opportunity or divest assets that, in

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

the absence of such conflict, it would have made or (b) otherwise take action that may benefit CIM, any of its affiliates or a CIM Vehicle and may not be in the best interests of the Fund or the Limited Partners.

As discussed in "Allocation of Opportunities—Review Agent," if the General Partner and the Manager act in a manner, approved by a Review Agent with respect to such conflict of interest, then to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the General Partner, the Manager, CIM and their respective affiliates will not have any liability to the Fund or any Limited Partner for such actions in respect of such matter taken by them, including actions in pursuit of their own interests, and will be deemed to have satisfied their fiduciary duties with respect to such actions and to have acted in good faith with respect to such conflict.

***Broken Deal Expenses***

The General Partner may offer Limited Partners and/or third parties the opportunity to co-invest in particular assets alongside the Fund. It may also establish one or more separate accounts. Any separate accounts and/or other CIM Vehicles may acquire assets side-by-side with the Fund. The terms of any co-investment opportunities, joint ventures, separate accounts or similar side-by-side arrangements may typically provide that such partners will not bear their share of any termination or "reverse breakup" fees and any deposits or down payments of cash or other property that are forfeited in connection with such a proposed Portfolio Asset ("Broken Deal Expenses") and, accordingly, all Broken Deal Expenses will generally be borne entirely by the Fund.

The General Partner, the Manager, the Fund and/or any of their respective affiliates may incur certain out-of-pocket costs and expenses in developing, negotiating and structuring prospective acquisitions that are not ultimately made, including Broken Deal Expenses. If a prospective seller in an unconsummated transaction reimburses the Fund or any of its affiliates for any Broken Deal Expenses (such amount, the "Reimbursed Amount"), the General Partner or its affiliates may in their sole discretion agree to share any or all of such Reimbursed Amount with third-party partners that participate in co-investment opportunities, joint ventures, separate accounts or similar arrangements to the extent such third-party partners incurred costs and expenses in connection with such unconsummated deals. As a result of these sharing arrangements, the Fund may not be reimbursed for 100% of its Broken Deal Expenses. Similarly, if a prospective underlying borrower pays the Fund or any of its affiliates a break-up fee in connection with a deal that ultimately does not close, the General Partner may in its sole discretion share any or all of such break-up fee with other CIM Vehicles or third-party partners that would have made the acquisition if such transaction had been consummated.

***Assets in which CIM Vehicles Have a Position***

The Fund may also deploy capital alongside CIM Vehicles, including funds, joint ventures or other accounts in which CIM may have an economic stake, whether on a pari passu basis with the Fund's Portfolio Assets or at a different level of the capital structure of the particular Portfolio Asset. In the event that the Fund participates in a different level of the capital structure of a particular Portfolio Asset than such CIM Vehicles, the interests of the Fund and CIM Vehicles may diverge significantly in the case of financial distress of such company. Accordingly, the General Partner and its affiliates may be presented with decisions when the interests of the two funds are in conflict and CIM may have conflicting loyalties between its duties to the Fund and to such other fund or account. For example, if additional financing is necessary as a result of financial or other difficulties, it may not be in the best interests of the Fund to provide such additional financing. If CIM Vehicles were to lose their respective assets as a result of such difficulties, the ability of the General Partner to recommend actions in the best interests of the Fund might be impaired. In addition, it is possible that in a bankruptcy proceeding, the Fund's interest may be subordinated or otherwise adversely affected by virtue of CIM's and such CIM Vehicles' involvement and actions relating to their acquisition.

Even in a case where the Fund deploys capital together with another CIM-managed, CIM-sponsored or CIM-operated fund, joint venture or other account, such other fund, joint venture or other account may have different tax and/or other interests with respect to acquisitions than those of the Fund and conflicts may arise including with respect to the structuring of the acquisition and/or disposition and/or the timing of the disposition of the particular asset. Such CIM Vehicles may also have different or expanded rights with respect to the underlying asset, including the right to remove CIM as the manager of the investment, initiate a disposition or effect other major decisions affecting the asset or provide consultation or approvals with respect to changes in CIM's Investment Allocation Policy. In any such case, actions may be taken by such other fund, joint venture or other account that is adverse to the Fund. There can be no assurance that the return on the Fund's Portfolio Asset in respect of a particular transaction will be equivalent to or better than the returns obtained by any other CIM-operated fund, joint venture or other account participating in the same transaction. This may result in a loss or substantial dilution of the Fund's Portfolio Asset, while a CIM Vehicle recovers all or part of amounts due to it. Similarly, the General Partner's ability to implement the Fund's strategies effectively may be limited to the extent that contractual

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

obligations entered into in respect of the activities of CIM and/or such CIM Vehicles impose restrictions on the Fund engaging in transactions that the General Partner may be interested in otherwise pursuing.

In those circumstances where the Fund and a CIM Vehicle hold positions in different classes of a company's debt or equity, CIM may also, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, take steps to reduce the potential for adversity between the Fund and the CIM Vehicle, including causing the Fund to take certain actions that, in the absence of such conflict, it would not take, such as (i) remaining passive in a restructuring or similar situations (including electing not to vote or voting pro rata with other security holders), (ii) deploying capital in the same or similar classes of securities as the CIM Vehicle in order to align their interests, (iii) divesting assets or (iv) otherwise taking an action designed to reduce adversity. Any such step could have the effect of benefiting a CIM Vehicle (or CIM) and therefore may not have been in the best interests of, and may have been adverse to, the Fund. A similar standard generally will apply if any CIM Vehicle deploys capital in a company or asset in which the Fund holds a position in a different class of such company's debt or equity securities or asset.

Although the properties underlying the Fund's Portfolio Asset and such other CIM Vehicle's holdings may share certain resources and amenities (e.g., tenant leasing offices, common areas and facilities and access to public transportation), such properties may also compete with one another for resources, including tenants and lease-up opportunities, public funding for infrastructure improvements and tax benefits, which may adversely impact the value and returns of the Fund's Portfolio Asset.

***Independent Actions***

The Limited Partners in the Fund and the other CIM Vehicles generally vote separately on matters pertaining to their respective vehicle or arrangement. For example, a determination by the partners in a CIM Vehicle to dispose of its interests in a particular asset or to terminate its vehicle or acquisition period where a corresponding action is not taken on behalf of the Fund could affect the General Partner's ongoing management decisions with regard to the Fund's Portfolio Assets, including, with respect to the timing, size and terms of any disposition of such assets on behalf of the Fund, and any actions taken on behalf of such CIM Vehicle with respect to leveraging and/or winding up of its portfolio could adversely affect the Fund's Portfolio Assets.

***Consummated Affiliated Transactions and Purchases***

From time to time and to achieve the Fund's stated investment program and to meet the timeline required under the Opportunity Zone legislation, the Fund purchases certain investments from, or co-invests alongside with, CIM affiliated entities or affiliates of the General Partner. A significant percentage of the investments in the Fund have been transferred into the Fund from CIM and its affiliates.

The Fund may coinvest with other entities that are related parties of CIM. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund held investments with a total fair value of $1.8 billion that were coinvested with funds that are related parties of CIM. In addition, the General Partner owns a nominal interest in the Fund's investments.

The Fund also enters into certain agreements with other CIM affiliated entities from time to time. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund entered into a transaction (the "Epic Merger") with CIM Epic II QOF, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which was a fund that was advised by affiliates of the Manager (the "Epic Fund"). Under the Epic Merger, the Fund received all the assets and liabilities of the Epic Fund, which consisted of interests in the Dallas Consolidated Joint Venture, in exchange for Units of the Fund, subject to adjustments for the period of one year after the date of the Epic Merger in order to account for any expenses attributable to the Epic Fund prior to the Epic Merger. As a result of the Epic Merger, partners of the Epic Fund were admitted to the Fund as Limited Partners and the Fund's interest in the Dallas Consolidated Joint Venture was increased from 62% to 70.2%.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, certain CIM-affiliated entities contributed all their interests in the Project Entities (and certain additional solar projects) based on net values as of March 31, 2025, to WEPCO Holdings in exchange for common units in WEPCO. As of December 31, 2025, the other CIM-affiliated entities owned approximately 33.3% of the interests in WEPCO. In connection with the WEPCO transaction, a subsidiary of the Fund entered into debt agreements with affiliates of CIM. Additionally, a subsidiary of the Fund has agreed to indemnify another CIM-affiliated fund for certain losses and liabilities.

The Fund also makes investments in projects that are not wholly owned by the Fund. The investors in these certain projects are, at times, CIM affiliated entities or affiliates of the General Partner.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Partners of CIM Opportunity Zone Fund, L.P.

***Opinion on the Financial Statements***

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CIM Opportunity Zone Fund, L.P. and its subsidiaries (the "Fund") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in partners' capital and redeemable partners' capital and of cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

***Basis for Opinion***

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Fund's auditor since 2019.

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND, L.P.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

**1. ORGANIZATION**

CIM Opportunity Zone Fund, L.P., (the "Fund"), a Delaware limited partnership, was formed on November 1, 2018 and commenced operations on January 21, 2019 (the "Initial Closing"). The Fund is governed by the Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2024 (as amended and restated, the "Partnership Agreement"). The Fund is organized as an open-ended vehicle for the purpose of investing in infrastructure and real estate, through entities that acquire, own, develop or re-develop and operate infrastructure and real estate assets, including assets in low-income communities in the United States that have been designated as "Opportunity Zones" pursuant to Section 1400Z-1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and which meet the criteria described in the Partnership Agreement. The Fund's objective is generating returns from capital appreciation and operating income once development of these assets is complete.

At least 90% of the Fund's assets will consist of "qualified opportunity zone property", which enables the Fund to be classified as a "qualified opportunity fund" within the meaning of Section 1400Z-2 of the Code (a "QOF"). The Fund qualified, and intends to continue to qualify, as a QOF beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2020.

The general partner of the Fund is CIM Opportunity Zone Fund GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "General Partner"), and an affiliate of CIM Group, LLC (together with its controlled affiliates, "CIM"). One or more affiliates of CIM acts as the manager of the Fund (the "Manager"). The Fund also has limited partners (the "Limited Partners"), affiliated limited partners (the "Affiliated Limited Partners") and, together with the General Partner, (the "Partners").

The Fund shall continue until it is dissolved and subsequently terminated upon (a) a determination made by the General Partner at any time in its discretion, (b) the bankruptcy, termination, dissolution or withdrawal of the General Partner, (c) the consent of a majority of the Limited Partners by number and the consent of 75% of Limited Partners by units to dissolve the Fund or (d) the entry of a decree of dissolution with respect to the Fund.

Subject to legal, tax, regulatory and other similar considerations, all calls for capital from the Limited Partners shall be made pursuant to a notice, and unless otherwise determined in the General Partner's discretion, capital contributions will be drawn first from all commitments made during the same closing date pro rata, and 100% of such commitments will be funded prior to calling capital from partners admitted during subsequent closings.

As of December 31, 2025, total capital commitments and capital contributions from the partners are summarized as follows (in thousands):

---

|:---|:---|:---|
| **Capital Commitments** | **Capital Contributions** | **Unfunded Commitments** |

**2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

***Basis of Presentation*** — The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and Article 8 of Regulation S-X.

***Principles of Consolidation*** — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Fund and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The portions of equity in consolidated subsidiaries that are wholly-owned and are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Fund are presented as non-controlling interests. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In determining whether the Fund has controlling interests in an entity and is required to consolidate the accounts in that entity, the Fund analyzes its investments in accordance with standards set forth in U.S. GAAP to determine whether the entities are variable interest entities ("VIEs"), and if so, whether the Fund is the primary beneficiary. The Fund's judgment with respect to its level of influence or control over an entity and whether the Fund is the primary beneficiary of a VIE involves consideration of various factors, including the form of the Fund's ownership interest, the Fund's voting interest, the size of the Fund's investment (including loans), and the Fund's ability to participate in major policy-making decisions. The Fund's ability to correctly assess its influence or control over an entity affects the presentation of its investments on the Fund's consolidated financial statements.

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND, L.P.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund, Westlands Electric Power Company, LLC ("WEPCO") and Westlands Electric Power Company Holdings, LLC ("WEPCO Holdings") entered into a Subscription and Contribution agreement (the "OZ Subscription and Contribution Agreement"). Pursuant to the OZ Subscription and Contribution Agreement, the Fund contributed its interests in solar projects (the "Project Entities") to WEPCO Holdings in exchange for common units in WEPCO (the "Phase 1 Contribution Transactions"). WEPCO is a newly-formed investment vehicle formed to hold solar investments previously held by the Fund and other CIM-affiliated entities. WEPCO Holdings is a wholly-owned subsidiary of WEPCO. The interests contributed by the Fund constitute all of the Fund's interests in the Project Entities.

Pursuant to a second Subscription and Contribution Agreement entered into during the year ended December 31, 2025, other CIM-affiliated entities contributed all of their interests in the Project Entities (and certain additional solar projects) to WEPCO Holdings in exchange for common units in WEPCO (the "Phase 2 Contribution Transactions"). Pursuant to a third Subscription and Contribution Agreement entered into during the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund and other CIM-affiliated entities contributed certain interests relating to an additional solar project in exchange for common units in WEPCO (the "Phase 3 Contribution Transactions"). The total aggregate value of the equity interests contributed by the Fund is $1.4 billion, based on net asset values as of March 31, 2025.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund and Westlands MM Investor, LLC ("MM Investor"), another CIM-affiliated entity, entered into Rescission Agreements and Subscription and Contribution Agreements (collectively, the "Rescission and Re-Contribution Documents"), whereby certain of their interests in solar projects that had been contributed to WEPCO during the year ended December 31, 2025 were rescinded effective as of dates of the original contributions and then re-contributed, effective as of those same dates, to COZ 1, LLC ("COZ") in exchange for common units in COZ. COZ then contributed, effective as of the dates of the original contributions by the Fund and MM Investor, as applicable, those same interests to WEPCO Holdings in exchange for common units in WEPCO. After giving effect to the Rescission and Contribution Documents, the Fund owns approximately 63.2% of the interests in WEPCO and 99.0% of the interests in COZ (with the remaining 1.0% interest in COZ being owned by MM Investor). COZ, in turn, owns approximately 3.5% of the interests in WEPCO. The Fund will be the managing member of WEPCO with an approximate 66.7% total ownership in WEPCO. For additional information, see also Note 4 — Investments in Real Estate.

As of December 31, 2025, WEPCO is a VIE that is consolidated by the Fund as the primary beneficiary, as the Fund has the ability to direct the activities of WEPCO and the right to receive gains and the obligation to absorb WEPCO's losses as the majority equity holder. The interests in WEPCO that are held by other CIM-affiliated entities are included in non-controlling interests on the consolidated balance sheets.

***Reclassification***s — Certain amounts of the Fund's prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The Fund reclassified $3.5 million of amortization relating to the below-market REC from depreciation and amortization expense, net to solar revenue on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. This reclassification had no effect on the previously reported net income or cash flows from operating activities.

***Use of Estimates*** — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

***Investments in Real Estate and Infrastructure*** — Investments in real estate and infrastructure are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Fund considers the period of future benefit of each respective asset to determine the appropriate useful life. Depreciation and amortization are recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Buildings and improvements | 15 - 40 years |
| Furniture, fixtures, and equipment | 3 - 5 years |
| Tenant improvements | Lesser of useful life or lease term |
| Intangible lease assets and liabilities | Lease term |
| Battery energy storage systems ("BESS") | 20 years |
| Photovoltaic facilities ("PV facilities") | 35 years |
| Transmission lines and substations ("Transmissions assets") | 50 years |

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND, L.P.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

***Capitalized Project Costs*** — The Fund capitalizes project costs, including pre-construction costs, interest expense, property taxes, insurance, and other costs directly related and essential to the development, redevelopment, or construction of a project, while activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. Costs incurred after a project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use are expensed as incurred. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life, increase capacity, or improve the efficiency of the asset. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

***Recoverability of Investments in Real Estate and Infrastructure*** — The Fund continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate investments may not be recoverable. Investments in real estate and infrastructure are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, the recoverability of assets to be held and used requires significant judgment and estimates and is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets and their eventual disposition. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment is recognized to the extent the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. The process for evaluating real estate impairment requires management to make significant assumptions related to certain inputs, including rental rates, lease-up period, occupancy, estimated holding periods, capital expenditures, growth rates, market discount rates and terminal capitalization rates. These inputs require a subjective evaluation based on the specific property and market. Changes in the assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value, the amount of impairment charge, if any, or both. Any asset held for sale is reported at the lower of the asset's carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. When an asset is identified by the Fund as held for sale, the Fund will cease recording depreciation and amortization of the asset. The Fund did not recognize any impairment of long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

***Allocation of Purchase Price of Real Estate and Infrastructure Investments*** — The Fund determines whether a purchase qualifies as an asset acquisition or meets the definition of an acquisition of a business. Acquisition of real estate and infrastructure assets for development are generally recognized at cost, including the related transaction costs, as asset acquisitions. The Fund applies the acquisition method to all acquired real estate and infrastructure investments. The purchase consideration of the real estate, which includes the transaction costs incurred in connection with such acquisitions, is recorded on a relative fair value basis to the acquired tangible assets, consisting primarily of land, land improvements, building and improvements, tenant improvements, and furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of acquired above-market and below-market leases, above and below-market solar agreements, in-place leases and ground leases, if any, based in each case on their relative fair values. Assumed debt is recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates.

In allocating the purchase consideration of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market lease values are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease, and for below-market agreements, over a period equal to the initial term plus any below-market fixed-rate renewal periods. Acquired above-market and below-market leases are amortized and recorded to rental and other property income over the initial terms of the respective leases.

The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases and tenant relationships, is measured by the estimated cost of operations during a theoretical lease-up period to replace in-place leases, including lost revenues and any unreimbursed operating expenses, plus an estimate of deferred leasing commissions for in-place leases. The value of in-place leases is amortized over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. If a lease is terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease are written-off.

***Investments in Unconsolidated Entities, at Fair Value*** — The Fund accounts for its investments in unconsolidated entities under the equity method, as the Fund has the ability to exercise significant influence over the investments. The Fund's investments in unconsolidated entities are carried under the fair value option pursuant to ASC 825, *Financial Instruments* ("ASC 825") on the Fund's consolidated balance sheets, with any changes in the fair value of such investments recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.

The fair values of investments are estimated based on the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date. Investments without a public market are valued

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND, L.P.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

based on applicable valuation techniques. Such valuation techniques include discounted cash flow analysis, applying market capitalization rates or earnings multiples to earnings from the investment, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sale negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties, consideration of the amount that currently would be required to replace the asset, as adjusted for obsolescence, as well as independent external appraisals. In general, multiple valuation techniques are taken into consideration when measuring the fair value of an investment. However, in certain circumstances, a single valuation may be appropriate, such as during the development phase of the project, where the "Cost Method" may be most appropriate for construction in progress, with the "Comparative Sales Approach" applied to the value of the underlying land. Upon completion, the investment would typically be valued utilizing the Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") and Comparative Sales approaches. Weighting of the appraisal methods represents an approximation of how marketplace participants would underwrite the investment in current market conditions as of the measurement date.

***Notes Payable, at Fair Value*** — The Fund has elected the fair value option for its notes payable, and records the changes in fair value in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 3 — Fair Value Measurements for further details on the assumptions used.

***Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses*** — Accounts payable and accrued expenses include accrued capital expenditures of $46.1 million and $30.6 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

***Noncontrolling Interests*** — Noncontrolling interests represent the interests in various properties owned by third parties.

***Leases*** — The Fund classifies contractual lease agreements entered as a lessor as a sales-type, direct financing or operating lease as described in ASC 842, *Leases*. For sales-type leases, the Fund derecognizes the leased asset and recognizes a net investment in lease on the consolidated balance sheets. The net investment in lease is initially measured at the present value of the fixed and determinable lease payments, including any guaranteed or unguaranteed residual value of the asset at the end of the lease, discounted at the rate implicit in the lease. The Fund evaluates its net investment in lease for impairment under the current expected credit loss standard, as further described below. Interest income is recognized under the effective interest method in the consolidated statements of operations. The effective interest method produces a constant yield on the sales-type lease receivable over the term of the lease. The Fund identified a sales-type lease in a power purchase agreement entered into during the year ended December 31, 2025 and recognized a gain on net investment in lease of $117.4 million in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 11 — Leases for further details on the Fund's sales-type lease.

The Fund has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Fund has elected to not separate non-lease components from lease components for all classes of underlying assets (primarily real estate assets) and will account for the combined components as rental and other property income. Non-lease components included in rental and other property income include certain tenant reimbursements for maintenance services (including common-area maintenance services or "CAM"), real estate taxes, insurance and utilities paid for by the lessor but consumed by the lessee. As a lessor, the Fund has further determined that this policy will be effective only on a lease that has been classified as an operating lease and the revenue recognition pattern and timing is the same for both types of components.

Significant judgments and assumptions are inherent in not only determining if a contract contains a lease, but also the lease classification, terms, payments, and, if needed, discount rates. Judgments include the nature of any options, including if they will be exercised, evaluation of implicit discount rates and the assessment and consideration of "fixed" payments for straight-line rent revenue calculations.

Lease costs represent the initial direct costs incurred in the origination, negotiation and processing of a lease agreement. Such costs include lease commissions and are amortized over the life of the lease on a straight-line basis. Costs related to salaries and benefits, supervision, administration, unsuccessful origination efforts and other activities not directly related to completed lease agreements are expensed as incurred. Upon successful lease execution, leasing commissions are capitalized.

***Current Expected Credit Losses*** — Current expected credit losses ("CECL") required under ASC 326, *Financial Instruments - Credit Losses* ("ASC 326"), reflects the Fund's current estimate of potential credit losses related to the Company's net investment in lease included in the consolidated balance sheets. Changes to current expected credit losses are recognized through net income on the Fund's consolidated statements of operations. While ASC 326 does not require any particular method for determining current expected credit losses, it does specify current expected credit losses should

be based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current portfolio and market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts for the duration of each respective instrument.

For the Fund's net investment in lease, the Fund uses a probability of default and loss given default method using a comparable data set. The Fund only expects to charge-off impairment losses as a reduction to current expected credit losses and as a reduction to the respective financial instrument balance if and when such amounts are deemed non-recoverable. Non-recoverability may also be concluded if, in the Fund's determination, it is nearly certain that all amounts due will not be collected. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund did not record any current expected credit losses on its net investment in lease.

***Redeemable Partners' Capital*** — Limited Partners may request a partial or total redemption of their units upon the expiration of the applicable lock-up period, which is four years from the date of the initial capital contribution made by such limited partner in respect of such capital commitment. As such, the redeemable limited partnership units are presented at the redemption amount in temporary equity under redeemable partners' capital in the consolidated balance sheets. The redemption amount is initially recorded as the contribution amount and is subsequently remeasured at the net asset value as determined in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. Net asset value is calculated as U.S. GAAP partners' equity adjusted for the redemption value of our limited partnership units. Increases or decreases in the value of limited partnership units will be reflected in retained earnings (deficit). The difference between the carrying amount and the redemption amount is reflected in change in fair value of redeemable limited partners' capital in the consolidated statements of changes in partners' capital and redeemable partners' capital.

***Revenue Recognition and Operating Lease-Related Receivables*** — Rental and other property income is primarily derived from fixed contractual payments from operating leases, and therefore, is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, which typically begins the date the tenant takes control of the space. When the Fund acquires a property, the terms of existing leases are considered to commence as of the acquisition date for the purpose of this calculation. Variable rental and other property income consists primarily of tenant reimbursements for recoverable real estate taxes and operating expenses which are included in rental and other property income in the period when such costs are incurred, with offsetting expenses in real estate taxes and property operating expenses, respectively, within the consolidated statements of operations. The Fund defers the recognition of variable rental and other property income, such as percentage rents, until the specific target that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved.

The Fund continually reviews whether collection of operating lease-related receivables, including any straight-line rent, and current and future operating expense reimbursements from tenants is probable. The determination of whether collectability is probable takes into consideration the tenant's payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Upon the determination that the collectability of a receivable is not probable, the Fund will record a reduction to rental and other property income for amounts previously recorded and a decrease in the outstanding receivable. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be not probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability becomes probable. Management's estimate of the collectability of operating lease-related receivables is based on the best information available at the time of estimate. The Fund does not use a general reserve approach and operating lease-related receivables are adjusted and taken against rental and other property income only when collectability becomes not probable.

***Solar Revenue Recognition*** — Solar revenue from contracts with customers is derived from the generation and sale of renewable electric energy and the environmental attributes and capacity attributes generated by the facility or associated with a battery energy storage system ("BESS") at the facility site. Solar revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* ("ASC 606"). The Fund follows a five-step process to recognize revenue under ASC 606: 1) identify the contract with the customer, 2) identify the performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation and 5) recognize revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied. The Fund has power purchase agreements where the power from the facility and the associated Renewable Energy Credits ("RECs") are sold at real-time market prices or a fixed price. The performance obligations relating to the power purchase agreements are satisfied when the product is physically transferred over time based on the output method. The Fund has power purchase agreements where the capacity attributes from the BESS are sold at a fixed price. For a BESS that is not considered to be under a lease, the performance obligations related to the capacity attributes are satisfied over time based on the output method.

During the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Fund recognized solar revenues of $77.3 million and $152.2 million, respectively, which is reflected on the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2025 and

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND, L.P.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

2024, solar revenue accrued was $11.0 million and $14.9 million, respectively, and is included in accounts receivable, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Revenues yet to be billed under the Fund's solar contracts will vary based on the volume of electricity and associated products delivered and/or available.

The Fund evaluates whether any embedded leases exist in its solar contracts. A lease of a facility or BESS is deemed to exist when a single off-taker has the ability or right to operate the facility or BESS, control physical access, or is entitled to obtain substantially all output from the facility or BESS at a price that is neither contractually fixed per unit of output nor equal to the current market price per unit of output, including electricity, RECs, and capacity attributes. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund identified an embedded lease in its solar contracts, as further described under "Leases".

***Investment tax credits*** — Certain of the Fund's investments generate investment tax credits ("ITC"), which it generally expects to monetize through sale and transfer to third parties for cash consideration. The Fund has elected to account for these types of credits under a government grant model, by analogy to IAS 20. At the time the ITC is generated, the Fund records the ITC at its estimated market value as an other asset and a reduction to the cost of solar facilities, as presented in the consolidated balance sheets. The credit is being recognized over the useful life of the solar facilities, which had an initial weighted average useful life of 26.7 years, as a reduction to depreciation and amortization expense, net, in the consolidated statement of operations. Upon sale of the ITC, the Fund will recognize the difference between the sales proceeds and the recorded value of the other asset as other income in the consolidated statement of operations. To date, as of December 31, 2025, the Fund's investments have generated an ITC of approximately $334.8 million that was recorded at an estimated market value of $308.1 million. The Fund sold the ITC during the year ended December 31, 2023, and during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Fund recognized an additional $2.9 million gain included in other income in the consolidated statements of operations, which represents the difference between the sales proceeds and the initial estimated market value. No additional gains were recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, amortization of the ITC was $9.1 million and $14.4 million, respectively, and is reflected as a reduction to depreciation and amortization expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. The remaining unamortized balance of $240.9 million and $289.7 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, will be amortized over the remaining useful life of the solar facilities.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents*** — Cash represents cash deposits held at high-quality financial institutions. Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments of sufficient credit quality that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents are held to meet short-term liquidity requirements, rather than for investment purposes.

***Restricted Cash*** — Restricted cash for real estate taxes, insurance, and other miscellaneous reserves, is recorded on the consolidated financial statements in accordance with agreements that require segregation of funds related to the operations of the respective real estate or solar investment or related loan agreements. Restricted cash also includes other cash collateral required by tax-equity partnership agreements, debt and related collateral agreements, or by letters of credit issued as performance security for the Fund's PPAs.

***Concentration of Credit Risk*** — Cash held at major financial institutions is subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceed the applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limitations, of up to $250,000 per financial institution.

***Contributions Receivable*** — Contributions receivable represents contributions with an effective date before the period presented but received from investors subsequent to period end.

***Network Reimbursement Receivable*** — In conjunction with the development of solar facilities, the Fund has a receivable that represents upgrades to enhance network infrastructure that will be recovered in the future. As of December 31, 2025, $32.5 million is recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

***Property Acquisition Deposits*** — The Fund may advance certain amounts to acquirees as refundable deposits for impending acquisitions. Upon successful execution of the acquisition, amounts advanced will be reclassified to investments in real estate.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

***Risk Management*** — In the normal course of business, the Fund encounters economic risk such as market risk and concentration of investment risk. Market risk reflects changes in the valuation of investments in real estate and equity method investees held by the Fund. Concentration of investment risk represents the risk associated with investments that are concentrated in certain geographic regions and industries.

***Income Taxes*** — The Fund intends to operate in a manner that will allow it to qualify as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Generally, an entity that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes is not a taxable entity and incurs no U.S. federal income tax liability. Accordingly, the Fund does not record a provision for U.S. federal, state, or local income taxes because the partners report their share of the Fund's income or loss on their income tax returns. If the Fund fails to qualify as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes in any taxable year and is not entitled to relief under the Code for an inadvertent termination of its partnership status or if the Fund is subject to an IRS audit under the partnership audit rules enacted by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 and does not make an election pursuant to Section 6226 of the Code, the Fund will be subject to federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. The Fund is subject to tax examinations for state and U.S. federal purposes since 2020.

The Fund currently qualifies as a QOF commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2020 under Section 1400Z-2 of the Code. If, in future periods, the Fund does not satisfy the requirements to be a QOF, it may be subject to penalty taxes as provided under the Code (unless it is eligible for a reasonable-cause exception).

ASC 740, *Income Taxes* ("ASC 740"), provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current period.

***Reportable Segments*** — The Fund's real estate investments consist of infrastructure and real estate assets located within qualified opportunity zones. The Fund's segment information reflects how the chief operating decision makers (the "CODM") review information for operational decision-making purposes. The Fund has two reportable segments:

*Infrastructure* — Engages primarily in investing in infrastructure, through entities that acquire, own, develop or re-develop and operate infrastructure assets in Opportunity Zones, with the objective of generating returns from capital appreciation and operating income once development of these assets is complete. The Fund's infrastructure assets consist of solar energy projects located in California.

*Real estate* — Engages primarily in investing in real estate, through entities that acquire, own, develop or re-develop and operate real estate assets in Opportunity Zones, with the objective of generating returns from capital appreciation and operating income once development of these assets is complete. The Fund's properties are geographically diversified throughout the United States and have similar economic characteristics.

See Note 12 — Segment Reporting for a further discussion regarding these segments.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements*** — In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 requires that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. ASU 2024-03 is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating whether the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

**3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS**

In determining fair value, the Fund uses various valuation approaches. The definition of estimated fair value is applied on a consistent basis with that required by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements ("ASC 820"). ASC 820 establishes a fair value measurement framework, provides a single definition of fair value, and requires expanded disclosure summarizing fair value measurements. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i4f7f0c8301f542a8ae6fdd6dac07987e_7)</u>

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND, L.P.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

The FASB issued guidance that establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. The guidance clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value in a market-based measurement should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the FASB established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1 — Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or through corroboration with observable market data; and

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs, for which there is little or no market data for the assets or liabilities, such as internally developed valuation models.

In instances where the determination of a fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The following describes the methods the Fund uses to estimate the fair value of the Fund's financial assets and liabilities:

*Investments in unconsolidated entities, at fair value* — Investments in unconsolidated entities are generally valued using Level 3 inputs. The Fund's valuations are prepared by third-party valuation firms in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice ("USPAP"). The fair values of investments are estimated based on the price that would be received to sell the Fund's interests in the unconsolidated entity in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date. Investments without a public market are valued based on assumptions made and valuation techniques. Such valuation techniques include discounted cash flow analysis, prevailing market capitalization rates or earnings multiples applied to earnings from the investment, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sale negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties, consideration of the amount that currently would be required to replace the asset, as adjusted for obsolescence, as well as independent external appraisals. In general, multiple valuation techniques are taken into consideration when measuring the fair value of an investment. However, in certain circumstances, a single valuation may be appropriate, such as during the development phase of the project, where the "Cost Method" may be most appropriate for construction in progress, with the "Comparative Sales Approach" applied to the value of the underlying land. Upon completion, the investment would typically be valued utilizing the Discounted Cash Flow ("DCF") and Comparative Sales approaches. Weighting of the appraisal methods represents an approximation of how marketplace participants would underwrite the investment in current market conditions as of the measurement date.

*Notes payable* — The fair value of notes payable is determined by a third-party appraiser who discounts the difference between contract and market debt service cash flows using market interest. The third-party appraiser also considers multiple valuation techniques (e.g., par, prepayment penalty) and applies a reconciliation among relevant methods. The fair value analysis is updated quarterly and reviewed by senior management. The market rate is determined by giving consideration to one or more of the following criteria, as appropriate: (i) interest rates for loan of comparable quality and maturity and (ii) the value of the underlying collateral. The fair value of the Fund's Convertible Note, as defined in Note 7 — Debt reflected the value that would be applicable if converted, which is tied to the value of the underlying solar project. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Convertible Note was converted to equity as further described in Note 7 — Debt. Such valuation is prepared by third-party valuation firms, consistent with the Fund's investments in unconsolidated entities as described above. The Fund's notes payable are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

*Other financial instruments* — The Fund considers the carrying values of its cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, other liabilities, due to related party and distributions payable to approximate their fair values because of the short period of time between their origination and their expected realization as well as their highly-liquid nature. Due to the short-term maturities of these instruments, Level 1 inputs are utilized to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments.

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND, L.P.**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Fund could realize, or be liable for, upon disposition of the financial assets and liabilities. The Fund evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. The Fund does not expect that changes in classifications between levels will be frequent.

***Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis***

Under the sales comparison technique, the significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Fund's investments is value per acre. Increases or decreases in the value per acre may result in a lower or higher fair value measurement, respectively.

Under the discounted cash flow technique, the significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Fund's investments is the discount rate, investment tax credit rate, investment tax credit eligibility and economic useful life, as applicable. Increases or decreases in the rates in isolation may result in a higher or lower fair value measurement, respectively. An increase or decrease in the discount rate used to determine fair value would result in a decrease or increase to the fair value, respectively. An increase or decrease in the investment tax credit rate or investment tax credit eligibility would result in an increase or decrease to the fair value, respectively.

**4. INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE**

***2025 Transactions*** — During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund contributed its interests in solar projects, including two of its investments in unconsolidated entities, in exchange for interests in WEPCO, as further described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition and expenses of $3.6 million are recognized in transaction-related costs in the consolidated statement of operations. The $187.6 million recognized in additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheet represents the fair value of the previously unconsolidated assets obtained in the WEPCO transaction as a result of affiliate contributions, offset by the change in non-controlling interest resulting from the carrying values of the previously consolidated assets that were contributed by the Fund to WEPCO.

**8. PARTNERS' CAPITAL AND REDEEMABLE PARTNERS' CAPITAL**

***Contributions***

Admission, and timing thereof, of new partners into the Fund is at the general discretion of the General Partner. Each Limited Partner may be required on or soon after such Limited Partner's admission to the Fund, to make a capital contribution to the Fund with respect to its capital commitment in an amount specified in a notice delivered by the General Partner at least three business days prior to the due date of such capital contribution. Thereafter, each Limited Partner shall generally make capital contributions at the discretion of the General Partner in an amount specified in a notice delivered by the General Partner at least ten business days prior to such date and only up to the amount of such Limited Partner's undrawn commitment.

In connection with each capital contribution, a Limited Partner shall be issued Units based on the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") as of such quarter-end. If a Limited Partner makes a capital contribution on a date other than on or around the last day of a quarter, such capital contribution shall generate a fixed return equivalent to an effective rate of 3.0% per annum from the date of such capital contribution until the next date on which the NAV is determined (generally the last calendar day of the quarter in which such capital contribution was made) and such partner will not participate in any other profit or loss, other than management fees, with respect to such capital contributions. The intra-quarter contributions generated fixed returns of $242,000 and $440,000, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, which are included in the statements of changes in partners' capital and redeemable partners' capital as fixed return increase and fixed return decrease. As of December 31, 2024, the Fund had $55,000 of contributions receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. There were no contributions receivable as of December 31, 2025.

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

***Distributions***

The Fund will make distributions pro-rata to the Limited Partners at such time and in such amounts as determined by the General Partner in its discretion. The Fund had $3.2 million and $31,000 of distributions payable in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***Redeemable Partners' Capital***

Limited Partners may request a partial or total redemption of their units upon the expiration of the applicable lock-up period, which is four years from the date of the initial capital contribution made by such limited partner in respect of such capital commitment, by providing written notice to the General Partner no later than the last calendar day of the quarter immediately preceding such redemption date, subject to certain restrictions as specified in the Partnership Agreement. Redemptions are only made to the extent that the Fund has sufficient cash available to honor redemption requests, as determined in the discretion of the General Partner. In addition, the General Partner or its affiliates may make a partial or total redemption of their units attributable to incentive allocation without notice to the Limited Partners at any time in their discretion. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Fund redeemed units totaling $757,000 and $295,000, respectively.

**9. MANAGEMENT FEES, INCENTIVE ALLOCATION AND OTHER RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

***Management fees***

The Manager provides investment management services to the Fund. For these services, the Fund pays the Manager management fees in advance on a quarterly basis (the "Management Fees"). The Management Fees are calculated based on each Limited Partner's Management Fee percentage, which ranged from 1.25% to 2.0% as of December 31, 2025, multiplied by their proportionate share of NAV as of the beginning of the quarter.

***Incentive allocation***

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner or an affiliate thereof or other designee of the General Partner, will be allocated net profits (the "Incentive Allocation") from the Limited Partners at the end of an incentive allocation period, subject to certain performance hurdles being met. The General Partner receives an Incentive Allocation of 20% annually, which is the portion of profits or gains that the General Partner is entitled to above a minimum return threshold. The high watermark is a mechanism that ensures the General Partner only receives an Incentive Allocation if the Fund's value surpasses the highest previous value. This means that if the Fund's value decreases below the high watermark, the General Partner will not receive any Incentive Allocation until the value exceeds the previous high point. The hurdle rate, which is set at 6%, is a minimum rate of return that the Fund needs to achieve before the General Partner becomes eligible for the Incentive Allocation. The General Partner is entitled to an 80% catch-up provision once the hurdle rate is met, which means that once the hurdle rate is surpassed, the General Partner will receive 80% of the profits or gains until they have caught up to their entitled share.

The General Partner has designated CIM Opportunity Zone Fund SLP, LLC (the "SLP"), an affiliated Limited Partner, to receive the Incentive Allocation. The General Partner may, in its discretion, waive, reduce or defer Incentive Allocation of all or a portion of the Incentive Allocation attributable to any Units of any Limited Partner. Since inception through December 31, 2025, the Fund has incurred incentive fees and allocation totaling $124.9 million and $56.6 million was unrealized as of December 31, 2025.

***Servicing Fees***

The General Partner or its affiliates may also provide to the Fund and/or its investments part or all of other services ("Other Services") that would otherwise be provided by a third party, including servicing fees and reimbursement of allocable costs and expenses incurred in connection with or relating to the performance of any Other Services (the "Allocable Costs and Expenses"). Pursuant to such provided services, the General Partner or its affiliates may receive from the Fund and/or its Portfolio Assets, (i) property management fees, (ii) development management fees, (iii) leasing brokerage fees, (iv) fees associated with arranging financings for Portfolio Assets, (v) multifamily residential sales fees, (vi) fees relating to servicing and administering the Portfolio Assets, including special servicing, (vii) fees in connection with or following a foreclosure on the Portfolio Asset and (viii) other related fees in connection with a Portfolio Asset (collectively, "Servicing Fees"). "Portfolio Assets" are assets that are held indirectly by the Fund through investments in limited liability companies, from time to time, including interests in individual real estate assets and/or real estate portfolios

As of December 31, 2025, $100,000 was due from related parties related to amounts received by CIM affiliated entities which were due to the Fund. No amounts were due from related parties as of December 31, 2024.

***Related Party Transactions***

To achieve the Fund's stated investment program and meet timelines required under the Opportunity Zone legislation, a significant percentage of the investments in the Fund have been purchased by the Fund from CIM and its affiliates. In these instances, such investments and co-investments are reported as transactions with related parties of the Fund.

The Fund may coinvest with other entities that are related parties of CIM. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund held investments with a total net asset value of $1.8 billion that were coinvested with funds that are related parties of CIM. In addition, the General Partner owns a nominal interest in the Fund's investments.

The Fund also enters into agreements with certain unconsolidated entities and other CIM affiliated entities from time to time. During the year ended December 31, 2025 the Fund incurred $3.1 million in fees for transmission services to one of its unconsolidated entities, which is reflected in solar and property operating expense within the statements of operations. Additionally, the Fund had a master power purchase and sale agreement with a CIM affiliate for an index plus contract with bundled RECs at a fixed price of $3.40 per megawatt-hour (MWh) with no volume minimums. The Fund, acting as agent of the affiliate, collected revenues related to REC sales from the power purchase and sale agreement counterparty and remitted the difference between the current bundled REC price with the power purchase and sale agreement counterparty and the fixed price under the affiliated PPA. During the year ended December 31, 2025 the Fund remitted $15.8 million to the CIM related vehicle, which is reflected as a reduction of solar revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. The affiliated PPA was terminated during the year ended December 31, 2025 in connection with the WEPCO transaction, and the CIM related vehicle returned $11.0 million that was remitted by the Fund.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund entered into a transaction (the "Epic Merger") with CIM Epic II QOF, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which is a fund that is advised by affiliates of the Manager (the "Epic Fund"). Under the Epic Merger, the Fund received all the assets and liabilities of the Epic Fund, which consisted of interests in the Dallas Consolidated Joint Venture, in exchange for Units of the Fund valued at $6.1 million, subject to adjustments for the period of one year after the date of the Epic Merger in order to account for any expenses attributable to the Epic Fund prior to the Epic Merger. As a result of the Epic Merger, partners of the Epic Fund were admitted to the Fund as Limited Partners and the Fund's interest in the Dallas Consolidated Joint Venture was increased from 62% to 70.2%. The Fund recorded a gain of $2.7 million resulting from the Epic Merger which is included in other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

As further described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, during the year ended December 31, 2025, certain CIM-affiliated entities contributed all their interests in the Project Entities (and certain additional solar projects) with a total aggregate value of $680.6 million based on net values as of March 31, 2025, to WEPCO Holdings in exchange for common units in WEPCO. As of December 31, 2025, the other CIM-affiliated entities owned approximately 33.3% of the interests in WEPCO. During the year ended December 31, 2025, a subsidiary of the Fund entered into debt agreements with affiliates of CIM in connection with the WEPCO transaction, as further described in Note 7 — Debt. Additionally, in connection with the WEPCO transaction, a subsidiary of the Fund has agreed to indemnify another CIM-affiliated fund for certain losses and liabilities, as discussed further in Note 10 — Commitments and Contingencies.

**10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts and agreements. These contracts and agreements commit the Fund to various specific and contingent obligations. In addition, the Fund may be subject to legal claims in the ordinary course of business.

As previously disclosed in the Fund's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund incurred a $9.0 million expense related to a dispute with a previous customer over a solar contract. Certain subsidiaries of the Fund are currently seeking to recover this expense from the previous customer in litigation. On April 24, 2024, the previous customer filed its own claims against certain subsidiaries of the Fund along with affiliates of CIM, seeking more than $200 million (without specifying or explaining the basis of the alleged damages) from all defendants in the aggregate. The litigation is in process and the outcome cannot be estimated or predicted at this time. CIM and the other affiliated

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**December 31, 2025**

defendants deny the previous customer's allegations and will continue to pursue their claim against the previous customer. In connection with the WEPCO transactions, a subsidiary of the Fund has agreed to indemnify another CIM-affiliated fund for certain losses and liabilities if incurred by such other fund in connection with the litigation as it specifically relates to one of the solar projects that is now owned by such subsidiary. As it relates to the Fund specifically, while no outcome can be guaranteed, management does not believe that the outcome will be material to the Fund.

Other than as described above, the Fund is not currently involved in any material pending or threatened legal proceedings nor, to our knowledge, are any material legal proceedings currently threatened against us, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.

The Fund is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state, and local governments. Compliance with these laws has not had a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements, and management does not believe it will have such an impact in the future.

The Fund acts as a guarantor of certain debt obligations to its underlying investments. In certain scenarios, the Fund may have limited or full recourse exposure.

**11. LEASES**

***Operating Leases***

The Fund's real estate assets are leased to tenants under operating leases for which the terms, expirations and extension options vary. The Fund's operating leases do not convey to the lessee the right to purchase the underlying asset upon expiration of the lease period. To determine whether a contract contains a lease, the Fund reviews contracts to determine if the agreement conveys the right to control the use of an asset. The Fund accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single, combined operating lease component. Non-lease components primarily consist of maintenance services, including CAM, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities paid for by the lessor but consumed by the lessee. Non-lease components are considered to be variable rental and other property income and are recognized in the period incurred.

As of December 31, 2025, the Fund's leases had a weighted-average remaining term of 7.9 years. Certain leases include provisions to extend the lease agreements, options for early termination after paying a specified penalty, rights of first refusal to purchase the property at competitive market rates, and other negotiated terms and conditions. The Fund retains substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. The Fund's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Future minimum rental revenue under long-term operating leases as of December 31, 2025, assuming no exercise of renewal options for the succeeding five fiscal years and thereafter, are as follows (excludes unconsolidated properties, in thousands):

***Sales-Type Leases***

The Fund identified a sales-type lease in a new power purchase agreement entered into during the year ended December 31, 2025. At the commencement of the lease, the Fund derecognized the leased asset, which consisted of $102.7 million of the Fund's solar facilities and recognized an initial net investment in lease of $220.1 million, which included a lease receivable of $184.7 million and the estimated unguaranteed residual value of $35.4 million. As of December 31, 2025, the remaining term of the sales-type lease is 14.1 years and matures on January 31, 2040. Upon maturity, the underlying leased assets will be retained by the Fund.

***Ground Leases***

The Fund has an investment in a real estate property that is subject to a ground lease with a remaining term of 93 years years, for which a right of use ("ROU") asset of $31.6 million and $32.5 million and a lease liability of $36.3 million and $35.9 million was recorded as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The ROU asset and lease liability were initially measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments using a discount rate of 3.6%. This reflects

the Fund's incremental borrowing rate, which was calculated based on the interest rate the Fund would incur to borrow on a fully collateralized basis over a term similar to the lease.

The Fund recognized $2.0 million of ground lease expense during both the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 of which $800,000 was paid in cash during the respective periods in which it was recognized. As of December 31, 2025, the remaining term of the ground lease is 93.0 years and matures on December 1, 2118. Upon maturity, the underlying leased assets will be retained by the Fund.

**12. SEGMENT REPORTING**

During the year ended December 31, 2024 and as a result of the Fund's solar assets being placed into service, the chief operating decision makers determined that the Fund has two reportable segments: Real Estate and Infrastructure. The change in reportable segments has been reflected retrospectively in the tables below. Corporate/other represents all corporate level and unallocated items and includes the Fund's other asset management activities and expenses. The Fund's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the Fund's senior management team, which includes officers of the General Partner of the Fund: the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and Chief Administrative Officer.

The CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based on segment net income (loss). There are no other significant segment expenses that would require disclosure other than those included in the segment reporting tables below. The CODM uses segment net income (loss) to make key operating decisions, such as identifying attractive investment opportunities, evaluating underwriting standards, determining the appropriate level of leverage to enhance returns on equity and deciding on the sources of financing. Asset information by segment is not reported or provided to the CODM because the CODM does not use this measure to assess performance.

**Report of Independent Auditors**

To the Member of CIM Opportunity Zone Fund GP, LLC

***Opinion***

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of CIM Opportunity Zone Fund GP, LLC (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, including the related notes (referred to as the "balance sheet").

In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

***Basis for Opinion***

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Balance Sheet section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

***Responsibilities of Management for the Balance Sheet***

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the balance sheet in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of a balance sheet that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the balance sheet, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the balance sheet is available to be issued.

***Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Balance Sheet***

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the balance sheet as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the balance sheet.

In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the balance sheet, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the balance sheet.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the balance sheet.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

**CIM OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND GP, LLC**

**NOTES TO BALANCE SHEET**

**1. Description of the Business**

CIM Opportunity Zone Fund GP, LLC, (the "General Partner" or the "Company"), a Delaware limited liability company, was formed on October 31, 2018. The Company is the sole general partner of CIM Opportunity Zone Fund, L.P., (the "Fund") an open-ended vehicle formed for the purpose of acquiring, owning, developing or re-developing and operating infrastructure and real estate assets, including assets in low-income communities in the United States that have been designated as "Opportunity Zones" pursuant to Section 1400Z-1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code").

The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CIM Group Management, LLC, as the sole equity member (the "Member"). The Company is an affiliate of CIM Group, LLC (together with its controlled affiliates, "CIM"). One or more affiliates of CIM acts as the manager of the Fund (the "Manager"). The Fund also has limited partners (the "Limited Partners") and, together with the General Partner, (the "Partners").

Except to the extent expressly set forth in the Fifth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of CIM Opportunity Zone Fund, L.P., the Company has full, complete, and exclusive authority to manage and control the business affairs of the Fund. The Company may be removed as the Fund's general partner if consented to by 75% of the limited partnership interests of the Fund. The Fund shall continue until it is dissolved and subsequently terminated upon (a) a determination made by the General Partner at any time in its discretion, (b) the bankruptcy, termination, dissolution or withdrawal of the General Partner, (c) the consent of a majority of the Limited Partners by number and the consent of 75% of Limited Partners by units to dissolve the Fund or (d) the entry of a decree of dissolution with respect to the Fund.

**2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

*Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation*

The accompanying balance sheet is presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

In determining whether the Company has controlling interests in an entity and is required to consolidate the accounts in that entity, the Company analyzes its investment in the Fund and Fund Assets in accordance with standards set forth in U.S. GAAP to determine whether the entities are variable interest entities ("VIEs"), and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company's judgment with respect to its level of influence or control over an entity and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE involves consideration of various factors, including the form of the Company's ownership interest, the Company's voting interest, the size of the Company's investment, and the Company's ability to participate in major policy-making decisions. The Company's ability to correctly assess its influence or control over an entity affects the presentation of these investments on the Company's balance sheet.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company determined its investment in the Fund to be a variable interest. Additionally, the Company was not determined to be the primary beneficiary due to its inability to exert significant influence and that its obligations as a general partner do not absorb losses or receive benefits of the fund that could potentially be significant. Therefore, the Company's investments are accounted for as equity method investments as further described below.

*Use of Estimates in Preparation of Balance Sheet*

The preparation of the balance sheet in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets as of the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

*Investment in the Fund and Fund Assets*

The general partnership interest in the Fund is unregistered and non-transferrable. As described above, the Company determined that its investments in the Fund and Fund Assets are equity method investments. Investment in the Fund and Fund Assets is recorded at cost plus the Company's share of the investment's cumulative income or losses. The carrying values of the Company's investments in the Fund and Fund Assets approximate fair value.

*Incentive allocation*

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner or an affiliate thereof or other designee of the General Partner, will be allocated net profits (the "Incentive Allocation") from the Limited Partners at the end of an Incentive

------

Allocation Period, subject to certain performance objectives. The General Partner has designated CIM Opportunity Zone Fund SLP, LLC (the "SLP"), an affiliated Limited Partner, to receive the Incentive Allocation. The General Partner may, in its discretion, waive, reduce or defer Incentive Allocation of all or a portion of the Incentive Allocation attributable to any Units of any Limited Partner.

*Income Taxes*

The Company is a limited liability company with all federal and state income tax liabilities and/or benefits of the Company being passed through to the member. As such, no recognition of federal or state income taxes for the Company or its subsidiaries that are organized as limited liability companies have been provided for in the balance sheet and no provision for income taxes is included in the balance sheet. Any uncertain tax position taken by the Member is not an uncertain position of the Company.

ASC 740, Income Taxes, provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current period. No such items existed in 2025.

*Recent Accounting Pronouncements*

The Company does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company's balance sheet.

**3. Commitments and Contingencies**

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts and agreements. These contracts and agreements commit the Fund to various specific and contingent obligations. In addition, the Fund may be subject to legal claims in the ordinary course of business.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund incurred a $9.0 million expense related to a dispute with a previous customer over a solar contract. Certain subsidiaries of the Fund are currently seeking to recover this expense from the previous customer in litigation. On April 24, 2024, the previous customer filed its own claims against certain subsidiaries of the Fund along with affiliates of CIM, seeking more than $200 million (without specifying or explaining the basis of the alleged damages) from all defendants in the aggregate. The litigation is in process and the outcome cannot be estimated or predicted at this time. CIM and the other affiliated defendants deny the previous customer's allegations and will continue to pursue their claim against the previous customer. As it relates to the Fund specifically, while no outcome can be guaranteed, management does not believe that the outcome will be material to the Fund.

Other than as described above, the Fund and the Company are not currently involved in any material pending or threatened legal proceedings nor, to our knowledge, are any material legal proceedings currently threatened against us, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.

The Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state, and local governments. Compliance with these laws has not had a material adverse effect on the balance sheet, and management does not believe it will have such an impact in the future.

**4. Subsequent Events**

*Subsequent Events*

Management evaluated transactions and events occurring subsequent to December 31, 2025, noting no material transactions or events in the subsequent period requiring disclosure or recognition in the balance sheet.
