Current report

Recent uncertainty surrounding legislation, regulation and governmental policy at the U.S. federal level could lead to disruptions in or have the effect of negatively impacting our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Current report

There is significant uncertainty surrounding legislation, regulation and government policy at the U.S. federal level, as well as uncertainty at certain state and local government levels. Recent events have lead to a climate of heightened ambiguity and introduced new and difficult-to-quantify macroeconomic and political risks with potentially far-reaching implications. The current U.S. federal government’s ongoing changes to U.S. policy may impact the U.S. and global economies, international trade and relations, unemployment rates, energy prices, tariffs, immigration, taxes, inflation and the general U.S. regulatory environment, among other things. Although we cannot predict the impact, if any, of these changes on our business activities and investments, they could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Current report

Our cash, cash equivalents and other investments may be adversely effected if the financial institutions in which we hold our cash, cash equivalents and other investments were to fail.

Current report

We regularly maintain cash balances in third-party financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit. If our financial institutions were to enter into receivership or become insolvent in the future as a result of economic or financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our existing cash, cash equivalents and other investments may be threatened, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

We are subject to fraud risk, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

Bad actors are using increasingly sophisticated schemes to engage in illegal activities such as mortgage and loan fraud, and we may be required to devote significant financial resources to discovering and discouraging fraudulent activities. Furthermore, fraudulent activities could result in increased costs and expenses, including litigation expenses, diversion of management time, and other disruptions to our operations, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current report

On December 5, 2024, the Galinn Fund LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Galinn”), filed a complaint in Connecticut State Superior Court naming CMC Storrs SPV, LLC (“CMC”), the holding company for our investment property located at 497-501 Middle Turnpike, Storrs, Connecticut (“497-501 Middle”), as a defendant, alongside Chen Ji, an individual (“Chen”), and two additional entities (the “Guarantors”). In the complaint Galinn alleges, among other things, that on May 24, 2024, Chen, on behalf of CMC, executed a mortgage note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $3.0 million (the “Loan”), which was secured in part by a mortgage against 497-501 Middle (the “Mortgage”). Galinn further alleges that CMC is in default under both the Note and Mortgage for failure to make payments when due. Galinn is seeking to foreclose on the Mortgage and damages against CMC and the Guarantors. In March 2020, when we first acquired an equity interest in CMC, Chen was an affiliate of the entity, however, he thereafter exited the investment and is no longer in any way affiliated with or authorized to act on behalf of CMC. We maintain that the Loan was obtained as a result of Chen’s fraud and Galinn’s negligence, and had Galinn done adequate due diligence, or reviewed the publicly available filings on the State of Connecticut’s Business Records website, or even a basic Google search, Chen’s lack of authority would have been readily apparent prior to Galinn having made the Loan.
Removed paragraphs (2)

Previous report

Recent disruptions in the U.S. and global banking systems may adversely affect our ability to obtain construction financing, which may negatively impact our ability to complete projects on budget and on schedule and, as a result, adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Previous report

The recent failures of Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and Signature Bank (“SNY”), actions by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC in taking over SVB and SNY and protecting uninsured depositors, the Biden administration’s call for greater regulation over the U.S. banking system and market participants’ increasingly negative outlook on the operating environment for U.S. and global banks, may make it more difficult for us to obtain, or cause delays in our obtaining construction financing from banks. The full effects of SVB and SNY failures, and the subsequent failure of Credit Suisse, remain to be seen and may not be realized for some time. There can be no assurance that these events will not negatively impact our ability to obtain construction financing, complete our development or redevelopment activities on budget and on schedule or adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Reworded paragraphs (26)

Previous wording

We have only held our investments for a limited period of time and are not able to provide you with any information to assist you in evaluating the merits of any specific properties or real estate-related investments that we may acquire, except for investments that may be described in one or more filings that we make with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We will continue to seek to invest substantially all of the net offering proceeds from our Primary Offering, and any other offerings that we may conduct, after the payment of fees and expenses, in the acquisition of or investment in real estate and real estate-related assets, including commercial real estate loans and mortgages, and debt and equity securities issued by other real estate companies, as well as select private equity investments, and opportunistic acquisitions of other qualified opportunity funds and qualified opportunity zone businesses. However, because you will be unable to evaluate the economic merit of our investments before we make them, you will have to rely entirely on the ability of our Manager to select suitable and successful investment opportunities. There can be no assurance that our Manager will be successful in obtaining suitable investments or that, if such investments are made, our investment objectives will be achieved. Furthermore, our Manager has broad discretion in selecting investments, and you will not have the opportunity to evaluate potential investments. These factors increase the risk that your investment may not generate returns comparable to other investment alternatives.

Previous wording

Our Class A units are listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “OZ,” however, an active, liquid and orderly market for our Class A units may not be sustained. Further, because we are a qualified opportunity fund eligible investors may defer recognition of capital gains (short-term or long-term) resulting from the sale or exchange of capital assets (or business assets the gain on sale of which is treated as a capital gain) by reinvesting those gains into our Class A units within a period of 180 days generally beginning on the date of the sale or exchange (the “Deferred Capital Gains”). Deferred Capital Gains are recognized on the earlier of December 31, 2026, or the date on which an inclusion event occurs, such as the date on which an investor sells their Class A units. Eligible investors may also elect to increase the tax basis of Class A units held by them to their fair market value on the date of sale or exchange if they hold our Class A units for a period of ten years or more, up to December 31, 2047. This benefit is not available with respect to sales or exchanges after December 31, 2047. Consequently, fewer Class A units may be actively traded in the public markets which would reduce the liquidity of the market for our Class A units. If an active market for our Class A units is not sustained, you may be unable to sell your Class A units at the time you desire to sell them, at a price at or above the price you paid for them, or without experiencing volatility in the price of our Class A units. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling Class A units and may impair our ability to make opportunistic acquisitions of other qualified opportunity funds and qualified opportunity zone businesses using our Class A units as consideration.

Previous wording

If we are unable to raise sufficient proceeds in our ongoing Primary Offering, and any other offerings that we may conduct, we may not be able to fund all of our existing projects or find additional suitable investments, and, as a result, we may not be able to achieve our investment objectives or pay distributions.

Current wording

If we are unable to raise sufficient proceeds in our ongoing Public Offerings, and any other offerings that we may conduct, we may not be able to fund all of our existing projects or find additional suitable investments, and, as a result, we may not be able to achieve our investment objectives or pay distributions.

Previous wording

Our ability to achieve our investment objectives and to pay distributions depends, in part, on our ability to fund our existing projects and on the ability of our Manager to find additional suitable and successful investment opportunities for us. If we fail to raise sufficient proceeds from the sale of Class A units in our Primary Offering, and any other offerings that we may conduct, we may be unable to fund all of our existing projects or to make additional suitable investments. At the same time, the more money we raise in our Primary Offering, and any other offerings that we may conduct, the greater our challenge will be to invest all of the net offering proceeds in investments that meet our investment criteria. Our investments consist of and are expected to continue to consist of properties located in qualified opportunity zones for the development or redevelopment of multifamily, student housing, senior living, healthcare, industrial, self-storage, hospitality, office, mixed-use, data centers and solar projects (collectively, “the qualified opportunity zone investments”) located throughout the United States and its territories. We also anticipate identifying, acquiring, developing or redeveloping and managing a wide range of commercial real estate properties located throughout the United States and its territories, including, but not limited to, real estate-related assets, such as commercial real estate loans and mortgages, and debt and equity securities issued by other real estate-related companies, as well as making private equity acquisitions and investments, and opportunistic acquisitions of other qualified opportunity funds and qualified opportunity zone businesses, with the goal of increasing distributions and capital appreciation. We cannot assure you that our Manager will be successful in locating and obtaining additional suitable qualified opportunity zone investments or that, if our Manager makes additional qualified opportunity zone investments on our behalf, our objectives will be achieved. What’s more, increased competition from other opportunity zone funds as well as any prospective legislative or regulatory changes related to qualified opportunity zone investments, may make it more difficult for our Manager to make suitable qualified opportunity zone investments. If we, through our Manager, are unable to find suitable investments promptly, we may invest in short-term, investment-grade obligations or accounts in a manner that is consistent with our qualification as a publicly traded partnership and qualified opportunity fund. If we would continue to be unsuccessful in locating suitable investments, we may ultimately decide to liquidate. In the event we are unable to timely locate suitable investments, we may be unable or limited in our ability to pay distributions and we may not be able to meet our investment objectives.

Previous wording

Our ability to deploy the capital we raise in our Primary Offering may be constrained.

Current wording

Our ability to deploy the capital we raise in our Public Offerings may be constrained.

Previous wording

We may have difficulty identifying and purchasing suitable properties on attractive terms. In addition, increased competition from other opportunity zone funds, a lack of suitable qualified opportunity zone investment opportunities or other market-related constraints, may also make it more difficult for our Manager to deploy the capital we raise in our Primary Offering. Therefore, there could be a delay between the time we receive net proceeds from the sale of our Class A units in our Primary Offering and the time we invest the net proceeds. This could cause a substantial delay in the time it takes for your investment to realize its full potential return and could adversely affect our ability to pay regular distributions of cash flow from operations to you. If we fail to timely invest the net proceeds of our Primary Offering, our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Previous wording

We plan to calculate the net asset value (“NAV”) of our Class A units on a quarterly basis. The per Class A unit purchase price will be adjusted within approximately 60 days of the last day of each quarter (the “Determination Date”). We will calculate our NAV as of the Determination Date (rounded to the nearest dollar) and any adjustment to our NAV will take effect as of the first business day following its public announcement. Our adjusted NAV per Class A unit will be equal to our adjusted NAV as of the Determination Date (rounded to the nearest dollar) divided by the number of Class A units outstanding on the Determination Date.

Current wording

Each quarter, we calculate our net asset value (“NAV”) and NAV per Class A unit as of the last day of the quarter (the “Determination Date”). Our NAV per Class A unit is equal to our NAV as of the Determination Date, divided by the number of Class A units outstanding on the Determination Date. We disclose our determination of NAV and NAV per Class A unit within approximately 60 days of the Determination Date. Any adjustments to our NAV and the per Class A unit purchase price take effect as of the first business day following its public announcement.

Previous wording

Our NAV will be calculated using a process that may reflect some or all of the following components: (i) estimated values of each of our assets and investments, including related liabilities (but may, in our discretion, exclude deal-level carried interest allocations), based on: (a) market capitalization rates, comparable transaction information, interest rates, adjusted net operating income; (b) with respect to debt, default rates, discount rates and loss severity rates; (c) for commercial real estate properties that have development or value add plans, progress along such development or value add plans; and (d) in certain instances, reports of the underlying assets and investments by an independent valuation expert; (ii) the price of liquid assets for which third party market quotes are available; (iii) accruals of our periodic distributions; and (iv) estimated accruals of our operating revenues and expenses (excluding property management oversight fees).

Previous wording

We may engage a third party to prepare or assist with preparing the NAV of our Class A units. In addition, where we determine that an independent appraisal is necessary, including, without limitation, where our Manager is unsure of its ability to accurately determine the estimated values of our assets and investments, or where third party market values for comparable assets and investments are either nonexistent or extremely inconsistent, we may engage an appraiser that has expertise in appraising the types of assets and investments that we hold to act as our independent valuation expert. The independent valuation expert will not be responsible for, prepare or assist with preparing our NAV per Class A unit.

Previous wording

As with any asset valuation protocol, the conclusions reached by our Manager or any third-party firm that we engage to prepare or assist with preparing the NAV of our Class A units will involve significant judgments, assumptions, and opinions in the application of both observable and unobservable attributes that may or may not prove to be correct. The use of different judgments or assumptions would likely result in different estimates of the value of our assets and investments and, consequently, our NAV. Moreover, although we will calculate and provide our NAV on a quarterly basis, our NAV may fluctuate daily, accordingly the NAV in effect for any given fiscal quarter may not accurately reflect the amount that might otherwise be paid for your Class A units in a market transaction. Further, for any given fiscal quarter, our published NAV may not fully reflect certain material events to the extent that they are unknown or their financial impact on our assets or investments is not immediately quantifiable.

Previous wording

It is important to note that the determination of our NAV will not be based on, nor is it intended to comply with, fair value standards under U.S. GAAP, and our NAV may not be indicative of the price that we would receive for our assets at current market conditions. In addition, we do not represent, warrant or guarantee that: (i) you will be able to realize the NAV per Class A unit for your Class A units if you attempt to sell them; (ii) you will ultimately realize distributions per Class A unit equal to the NAV per Class A units you own upon liquidation of our assets and investments and settlement of our liabilities or a sale of our company; (iii) our Class A units will trade at their NAV per Class A unit on the NYSE; or (iv) a third party would offer the NAV per Class A unit in an arm’s-length transaction to purchase all or substantially all of our Class A units. Furthermore, any distributions that we make will directly impact our NAV, by reducing the amount of our assets.

This team of investment, asset management and other professionals, acting through our Manager, makes all decisions regarding the origination, selection, evaluation, structuring, acquisition, financing and development of our commercial real estate properties, real estate-related assets, including commercial real estate loans and mortgages, and debt and equity securities issued by other real estate-related companies, as well as private equity acquisitions and investments, and opportunistic acquisitions of other qualified opportunity funds and qualified opportunity zone businesses, subject to the limitations in our Operating Agreement. Our Manager also provides portfolio management, marketing, investor relations, financial, accounting, and other administrative services on our behalf with the goal of maximizing our operating cash flow and preserving our invested capital. As such, our ability to achieve our investment objectives and to pay distributions to the holders of our Class A units is dependent in part on our Sponsor’s financial condition and our Sponsor’s and our relationship with our Manager. Any adverse changes in our Sponsor’s financial condition or our Sponsor’s or our relationship with our Manager could hinder our ability to successfully manage our operations and our portfolio of assets and investments. In addition, our Manager and our Sponsor only have limited assets and our recourse against our Manager or our Sponsor if our Manager does not fulfill its obligations under the Management Agreement will be limited to our termination of the Management Agreement.

Previous wording

Our Management Agreement with our Manager was negotiated between related parties and its terms, including fees payable, may not be as favorable to us as if it had been negotiated with an unaffiliated third party. We will pay our Manager a management fee regardless of the performance of our investments. Our Manager’s entitlement to a management fee, which is not based upon performance metrics or goals, might reduce its incentive to devote its time and effort to seeking investments that provide attractive risk-adjusted returns for our portfolio. This in turn could hurt both our ability to pay distributions to holders of our Class A units and the market price of our Class A units.

Previous wording

While our goal is to pay distributions from cash flow from operations, we may, at the discretion of our Manager, subject to Board oversight, use other sources to fund distributions, including, without limitation, the sale of assets, borrowings in anticipation of future operating cash flow, net proceeds of our Primary Offering, and any other offerings that we may conduct, cash advances by our Manager, cash resulting from a waiver of fees or reimbursements due to our Manager or the issuance of additional securities. We will only fund distributions by a return of capital following the sale of assets, unless otherwise determined by our Manager in its discretion. Funding distributions from the sales of assets, borrowings, return of capital or proceeds of this offering will result in us having less funds available to make investments. As a result, the return you realize on your investment may be reduced. Doing so may also negatively impact our ability to generate cash flows. Likewise, funding distributions from the sale of additional securities will dilute your interest in us on a percentage basis and may impact the value of our Class A units. We can provide no assurances that future cash flow will support payment of distributions or maintaining distributions at any level, if at all.

Our investment guidelines delegate to our Manager discretion and authority to execute acquisitions and dispositions of investments (including the reinvestment of capital basis and gains) in commercial real estate properties, real estate-related assets, including commercial real estate loans and mortgages, and debt and equity securities issued by other real estate-related companies, as well as private equity acquisitions and investments, and opportunistic acquisitions of other qualified opportunity funds and qualified opportunity zone businesses, provided such investments are consistent with our investment objectives and strategy and our investment guidelines. Our Manager’s investment committee will periodically review our portfolio of assets and investments, our investment objectives and strategy and our investment guidelines to determine whether they remain in the best interests of our members and may recommend changes to our Board as it deems appropriate. Our Board will not, and will not be required to, review all of our proposed investments. Our Manager may use complex strategies or enter into costly transactions that are difficult or impossible to unwind by the time they are reviewed by our Board, which could result in investment returns that are below expectations or that result in losses, and which would materially and adversely affect our business operations and results.

Accordingly, our Manager will be able to determine the outcome of all matters on which a holder of our Class M unit has a vote. Such matters include certain mergers and acquisitions, certain amendments to our Operating Agreement and the election of one Class III director (the “Class M Director”). The Class M unit does not represent an economic interest in the Company.

Previous wording

We will engage primarily in the business of investing in real estate and to conduct our operations such that neither we nor any of our subsidiaries are required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act.

Current wording

Previous wording

Maintaining our exclusion from registration under the Investment Company Act will limit our ability to make certain investments. In addition, although we intend to continuously monitor our holdings, there can be no assurance that we, our Operating Companies or any of the subsidiaries of our Operating Companies will be able to maintain our exclusion from registration. A change in the value of any of our assets could negatively affect our ability to maintain our exclusion from registration and we may be unable to sell assets we would otherwise want to sell and may need to sell assets we would otherwise want to retain. In addition, we may have to acquire additional assets that we might not otherwise have acquired or may have to forego opportunities to acquire assets that we would otherwise want to acquire and would be important to our investment strategy.

Previous wording

Our activities and investments may be adversely affected by changes in market, economic, political or regulatory conditions, such as fluctuations in real estate market prices, rising interest rates, availability of credit, credit defaults, rising inflation rates, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, economic uncertainty, instability in the banking system, changes in laws (including laws relating to taxation of us or of our investments), and national and international political, environmental and socioeconomic circumstances (including disease outbreaks, wars, cyberattacks, terrorist acts or security operations), such as the escalating conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the severe economic sanctions and export controls imposed by the U.S. and other governments against Russia and Russian interests, as well as by numerous other factors outside of our control. In addition, our financial condition may be adversely affected by an economic downturn, related to market, economic or political instability, or otherwise. A recession, slowdown or sustained downturn in the U.S. or global economy (or any particular segment thereof), inflationary pressures or the weakening of credit markets could adversely affect the value of our investments and our profitability, impede our ability to perform under or refinance our existing obligations, and impair our ability to effectively deploy our capital or effectively exit or realize upon investments on favorable terms. It is not possible for us to predict whether or to what extent these factors may negatively impact economies around the world, including the U.S., and if any of the foregoing market, economic or political issues are not managed appropriately, they could impair our profitability or result in substantial or total losses to us in respect of certain investments, which losses may be exacerbated by our use of leverage.

Previous wording

The management fee our Manager receives will be based on our NAV and our Manager is ultimately responsible for calculating our NAV.

Current wording

The management fee our Manager is entitled to receive is based on our NAV and our Manager is ultimately responsible for calculating our NAV.

Previous wording

We pay our Manager a quarterly management fee at an annualized rate of 0.75%. The management fee is based on our NAV, as calculated by our Manager at the end of each quarter. Our NAV will be announced within approximately 60 days of the last day of each quarter. Our NAV will be calculated using a process designed to produce a fair and accurate estimate of the price that would be received for our assets and investments in an arm’s-length transaction between a willing buyer and a willing seller in possession of all material information about our assets and investments. As with any asset valuation protocol, the conclusions reached by our Manager or any third-party firm that we engage to prepare or assist with preparing the NAV of our Class A units will involve significant judgments, assumptions, and opinions in the application of both observable and unobservable attributes that may or may not prove to be correct. It is important to note that the determination of our NAV will not be based on, nor is it intended to comply with, fair value standards under U.S. GAAP, and our NAV may not be indicative of the price that we would receive for our assets at current market conditions. There can be no assurance that the judgments, assumptions, and opinions used by our Manager to calculate our NAV, or the resulting NAV, will be the same as those judgments, assumptions and opinions that would be used, or the NAV that would be calculated, by an independent third-party firm. In addition, our Manager may benefit by us retaining ownership of our assets and investments in order to avoid a reduction in our NAV at times when the holders of our Class A units may be better served by the sale or disposition of our assets or investments. If our NAV is calculated in a way that is not reflective of our actual NAV, then the purchase price of shares of our Class A units may not accurately reflect the value of our assets and investments, and your Class A units may be worth less than the purchase price paid.

In order to receive the benefits of investing in a qualified opportunity fund, taxpayers must make deferral elections on Form 8949,Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets, which will need to be attached to their U.S. federal income tax returns for the taxable year in which gain treated as capital gain (short-term or long-term) that result from the sale or exchange of capital assets would have been recognized had it not been deferred. In addition, Form 8997,Initial and Annual Statement of Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) Investments, requires eligible taxpayers holding a qualified opportunity fund investment at any point during the tax year to report: (i) qualified opportunity fund investments holdings at the beginning and end of the tax year; (ii) current tax year capital gains deferred by investing in a qualified opportunity fund; and (iii) qualified opportunity fund investments disposed of during the tax year. Taxpayers may receive a Letter 6502,Reporting Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) Investments, or a Letter 6503,Annual Reporting of Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) Investments, if they have not properly followed the instructions for Form 8997,Initial and Annual Statement of Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) Investments, and the IRS is missing information, the taxpayer entered invalid information, or the requirements to maintain a qualifying investment have not been followed. Taxpayers who receive a Letter 6502,Reporting Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) Investments, or a Letter 6503,Annual Reporting of Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) Investments, may need to file an amended return or an administrative adjustment request with a properly completed Form 8997,Initial and Annual Statement of Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) Investments. The procedures that you will need to follow to defer your capital gains and the requirements related to maintaining a qualifying investment are highly technical and complex, accordingly, we recommend that you consult with your own tax advisor.
