5 CRE Capital Market Questions Today Is 2016 the 7th year of the recovery like 2004 or 2006 in the cycle? Is volatility our friend or foe? Will we see more? If this volatility keeps up, are there any distressed sellers who may sell cheap? Will prospect of lower rates offset current volatility? How is recent volatility impacting offshore capital flows? How much of a game changer is the PATH Act of 2015 (FIRPTA) for US CRE? 4

7 Market Positives (continued) Past experience with Fed rate increases Oil Prices Limited Supply Dynamic Treasury Yields Wage Growth Net Absorption & Rent Increases 6

8 Concerns What does the first month of 2016 predict for the year? Are public equity markets signaling a CRE correction? Are oil and the high yield bond market indicating a recession on the near term horizon? What are the impacts of growing regulation? 7

9 Concerns (continued) Will sustained low oil prices cause Middle Eastern investors to retrench? Could the Chinese government limit outflows to help manage their currency? We are a long way into this recovery. 8
