GOR Announces Acquisition of Trust Beneficiary Interest in Domestic Real Estate(LUCID SQUARE SHIN-OSAKA)
Global One Real Estate Investment Corp. (“GOR”) announces today that Global Alliance Realty Co., Ltd. (“GAR”), the Asset Manager to which GOR entrusts the management of its assets, decided on the acquisition of trust beneficial interest in domestic real estate (hereinafter the acquisition of trust beneficial interest in domestic real estate is referred to as the “Acquisition”) as outlined below.
Outline of the Acquisition
Type of asset: Trust beneficial interest in real estate
Name of building: LUCID SQUARE SHIN-OSAKA
Location: Osaka City, Osaka
Acquisition price: 9,720 million yen (*)
Scheduled acquisition date: 5 December 2025
Seller: Special Purpose Company Bryan
Brokerage: None
Funds of acquisition: Borrowing and own funds
Hereinafter, the above asset for acquisition is referred to as the “Asset Acquired”.
(*) The acquisition price represents the prices described in the purchase agreement, excluding related expenses, settlement amount of property tax and city planning tax, consumption tax and local consumption tax.
Reason for the Acquisition
GOR will conduct the Acquisition with the aim of enhancing the quality of the portfolio properties from a medium- to long-term perspective, pursuant to the “Investment Policies and Investment
Targets” stipulated in the Articles of Incorporation.
The Acquisition is positioned as an asset replacement for Shinagawa Seaside West Tower, which was sold in March 2025 due to concerns over declining profitability arising from the outflow of major tenants. The Asset Acquired was sourced through the Asset Manager’s independent sourcing activities, through which GOR obtained a preferential negotiation right. The property is fully occupied, features a well-diversified tenant base, and offers upside potential for rent increases with an estimated rent gap of around 30%. It is evaluated as a transaction that will contribute to the enhancement of GOR unitholder value over the medium to long term.

Asset Transferred: “NOI yield” = “NOI forecast for the period ending September 2025 (adjusted for the impact of the major tenant move-out*)” × 2 ÷ “Acquisition price”
(*) It is assumed that half of the vacancies will be filled at market rent levels at the time. “NOI yield after depreciation” = (“NOI forecast for the period ending September 2025 (adjusted for the impact of the major tenant move-out*)” – “Depreciation forecast for the period ending September 2025”) × 2 ÷ “Acquisition price”

The key determinant factors of the acquisition of the Asset Acquired include the following. Furthermore, the lessee of the Asset Acquired is deemed to comply with the tenant selection criteria of GOR described in the “Report on Management Structure and System of the Issuer Concerning Real Estate Investment Trust Units and Related Parties” submitted on 24 June 2025.
District potential
The “Shin-Osaka” area, where the property is located, is a major terminal served by the Tokaido and Sanyo Shinkansen lines, the JR Tokaido Main Line connecting Kyoto and Kobe, and the Osaka Metro Midosuji Line. It also offers direct access to Kansai International Airport via the JR Haruka limited express, and provides convenient access to Osaka International Airport (Itami Airport) within approximately 30 minutes by subway, monorail, or bus, enabling excellent connectivity not only to central Osaka and neighboring cities, but also to major cities across Japan and overseas.
Leveraging this outstanding accessibility, the area hosts a high concentration of regional
headquarters for wholesale and manufacturing companies that place importance on wide-area operational reach, as well as Kansai/Osaka regional headquarters of companies headquartered in Tokyo. Numerous information and communications-related companies, ranging from large enterprises to small and medium-sized firms, are located in the area, creating a stable level of tenant demand.
Location potential
The property is located just a 1-minute walk from JR “Shin-Osaka Station,” where the Tokaido Shinkansen terminates and the Sanyo Shinkansen begins and is also accessible within a 7-minute walk to Osaka Metro Midosuji Line “Shin-Osaka Station” via a connecting passageway. This excellent transport access—particularly the rare advantage of being only a 1-minute walk from the Shinkansen exit—makes the property highly compatible not only with customer-facing tenants, but also with tenants engaged in wide-area sales activities that use JR “Shin-Osaka Station” as their operational base, including those utilizing company vehicles.
Furthermore, if the planned opening of the Naniwasuji Line, the Linear Chuo Shinkansen, and the Hokuriku Shinkansen is realized, travel times to Kansai International Airport as well as to Tokyo and the Hokuriku region are expected to be further reduced.
In addition to this excellent transportation convenience, the surrounding area is expected to undergo broad revitalization. Following the designation of the Shin-Osaka district area (Shin-Osaka, Juso, Awaji) as an Urban Regeneration Emergency Development Area in October 2022, Osaka City is advancing plans to develop the district into one of the world’s leading wide-area transportation hubs. Enhancements to pedestrian networks connecting the station and the development of large-scale exchange facilities are expected to activate the area extensively.
Property specifications
The property offers a typical rentable floor area of 184 tsubo with an efficient, effective structure with excellent rentable floor layout, and supports small-scale division with a minimum rentable floor area of 24 tsubo. It also provides 75 parking spaces, accommodating tenant needs for company vehicles used in sales activities. In addition, to further enhance the property's competitiveness, the entrance and common areas on each floor were renovated in June 2021, and the property holds an A-rank “CASBEE for Real Estate” certification.

(*3) PML is a probable maximum loss in the event of a major earthquake. While the definition may vary depending on the region, the PML used herein is a loss rate to assess damage, calculated by dividing the loss amount by the replacement cost. The figure is based on the assumption that the building will be in use for 50 years and that the largest expected earthquake has a 10% probability of occurring every 50 years within the recurrence range of 475 years.

(*6) “NOI” means net operating income, the amount of the total rental revenue less property-related expenses (excluded depreciation and amortization costs).
“Expected NOI” is an expected annual figure, not a forecast number for the next period, based on the assumption the occupancy rate will be the expected occupancy rate and considering the occurrence of taxes and public dues.

(*7) “Depreciation” represents the current estimate amount.
