◆Evaluation and Selection Process of Projects
Upon the evaluation and selection of Green Buildings and Renovation Work, etc., the Finance and IR Division considers the adequacy based on the sustainability policy and green eligibility criteria at Tokyu REIM, and the President and Chief Executive Officer conducts evaluation and selection after confirmation by the Sustainability Promotion Committee. The details will be reported at Tokyu REIM’s Board of Directors and TOKYU REIT’s Board of Directors’ meeting.

◆Management of Procured Funds
If there are unallocated funds, the Procured Funds shall be managed as cash or cash equivalents. If the assets subject to the use of funds are excluded from the target due to sale or damage, etc. by the date of redemption or repayment of the targeted investment corporation bonds or borrowings even after the allocation of the entire amount, the unallocated funds which occur temporarily shall be managed through Portfolio Management (Note).

(Note) “Portfolio Management” refers to the management method of confirming that the total balance of green finance does not exceed the amount of green eligible debt in each fiscal period. Moreover, green eligible debt is calculated with the formula of total acquisition price of Green Buildings × total assets LTV ratio (as of the end of fiscal period) + amount invested in Renovation Work, etc., and is the maximum amount of the balance of green finance.
