Investment Summary This is an opportunity to invest in the acquisition and repositioning of a 3- property office portfolio located 30 miles outside of New York City in the Morristown, New Jersey sub- market. All the properties are currently cash flowing with a blended occupancy rate of 91.8%. The sponsor, Lincoln Equities Group ( LEG ), has owned and managed more than 5 million square feet of Class A commercial office space in the New Jersey market during its 30 year history. LEG closed on the acquisition with Fundrise in May of 2015 at a purchase price of $80,000,000 ($194/SF), which represents a blended cap rate of 9.27% based on the 2014 NOI of $7,416,439. LEG purchased the portfolio at a discounted bulk price due
to upcoming lease roll- over and terminations, and plans to reposition several of the properties over in the next three years. Once they have completed leasing and brought all the buildings to stabilized occupancy, they plan on selling the properties individually (high- bidders in the market pay 7-8% cap rates) yielding a much greater overall price for the portfolio. LEG projects a total project cost to complete the repositions of $84,797,900. At closing, LEG along with it s partners invested more than $11,400,000 junior to the Fundrise position, yielding an approximate LTC on the Fundrise investment of 86.6%. In other words, LEG would have to lose $11,400,000 of value from the asset before the Fundrise position was put at risk.

As part of it s termination option, Smith s will pay an early termination fee of $1,862,000. This fee will be used in addition to the existing equity investment to pay for tenant improvement allowances as part of the releasing process. LEG has already been in negotiations with several tenants with an interest in filling the space. 20. Financial Overview at Stabilization LEG projects to increase NOI to $7,725,000 and achieve a lower blended cap rate of 8.50% at planned sale of the assets, yielding an exit valuation in excess of $90,000,000.

Market Summary Morris County is situated in the northeastern section of New Jersey and consists of 40 municipalities including Chester, Florham Park, Hanover Township, Madison, Mendham, Morristown (the County seat), and Parsippany. The County is known for its high quality of life, well- educated work force, and its large concentrations of major corporate headquarters. These corporations are able to draw employees from a great distance due to the region s highway infrastructure and Morris County s central location. Morris County is one of the wealthiest in the counties in the country, boasting an average household income of $132,622, 37% higher than the New Jersey average of $97,052. 74% of the County s population is employed in white color professions including financial services, pharmaceuticals, telecommunications, and high technology. Three of the portfolio tenants are wealth management firms Morgan Stanley, Regent Atlantic Capital, and Glenmede benefiting from the affluent local community. 100 Southgate Parkway, 1200 Mt. Kemble Avenue, and 60 Columbia Road are located in or adjacent to Harding Township. While Morris County is consistently one of the top 10 wealthiest counties in the Country, Harding Township is wealthier still (average household income of $202,858). In taking advantage of this, three of the portfolio tenants are wealth management firms, Morgan Stanley, Regent Atlantic Capital, and Glenmede. It is the location of 1200 Mt. Kemble & 100 Southgate, situated between Harding Township and Morristown that has allowed these buildings to outperform the submarket in terms of both
occupancy and rental rates and has insulated the assets against the recent market downturn. The three properties are located less than 8 miles from each other, off of Interstate 287. The location offers convenient access to I- 287, I- 78, I- 80, I- 280, Rt- 46, Rt- 10, and Rt- 24 which allow travelers to reach New York City in 45 minutes, Newark Liberty International Airport in 25 minutes and Philadelphia in 90 minutes. Just 5 miles from Downtown Morristown, the portfolio offers excellent proximity to restaurants, shopping malls, hotels, parks, and daycare centers. In 2013, Morris County boasted a AAA Bond rating for the 39th consecutive year from both Moody s and Standard & Poor s. Moody s cited the AAA rating as reflecting the Country s strong and diverse tax base, well- managed financial operations, which have historically supported healthy reserve levels, and a modest debt burden. With over 30.1 million SF of inventory, Morris County has the largest office inventory in the state, 55% of which is considered Class A product, giving Morris County a larger class A than many cities including Orlando, Milwaukee, Memphis, San Antonio, and Columbus. Morris County represents New Jersey s largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies with over 40 companies either headquartered or having a major facility in the county. Average asking rents are $27.51/SF, and Class A average asking rent is $30.45/SF, a 4% increase since last year. The office market sees very high velocities, with over 3.5 million SF of leasing activity of over the past 2.5 years, the highest of any county in NJ.
