"—" means not available.
Projected IRRs were the sponsor's estimates at acquisition, based on assumptions that may not hold. They are not guarantees, and actual results have differed and may differ materially.
Past performance is not indicative of, and is no guarantee of, future results. Figures are historical, unaudited and prepared by the sponsor. Purchase prices and values are gross, property-level figures. They are not investor returns and do not reflect debt, fees, expenses or carried interest. IRRs are net to investors, as reported by the sponsor. Method: Net of all fees and commissions; based on cash flow plus sale proceeds or, for unsold properties, estimated value (not an appraisal). Unsold properties' IRRs use estimated values, not appraisals. 11 of 13 properties have not been sold; their values are estimated values as of the dates shown, not appraisals. Any gain on them is unrealized and may never be achieved. The table shows Oakland / East Bay properties. Mr. Shah's role varied by property, and several were acquired with partners. Investments in real estate are speculative and illiquid and may result in the loss of your entire investment. Supporting documents are available on request.
