## Announcement of New Fund Launch
SYLA Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Yoshiyuki Yuto), a group company of SYLA Holdings Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Chairman & Group Executive CEO: Hiroyuki Sugimoto), announced that it will start accepting applications for its new fund, 'Rimawarikun Short-Term Fund Vol. 23 Lupinus Ikebukuro,' on its real estate crowdfunding service, 'Rimawarikun,' starting at 8:00 PM today.

The target fundraising amount is 108,550,000 yen, with an estimated yield of 4.6%.

### Overview of the Fund
We are forming a new short-term fund targeting real estate in the popular area of Ikebukuro (Higashi-Ikebukuro) as part of our well-received 'Rimawarikun Short-Term Fund' series.

With a short operation period of 3 months, this fund is designed to be accessible to a wide range of investors, from those considering real estate crowdfunding for the first time to experienced investors focusing on investment efficiency.

This fund is being re-formed following the successful completion of the previously popular 'Rimawarikun Short-Term Fund Vol. 20 Lupinus Ikebukuro.' Similar to the previous round, our parent company, SYLA Holdings, will provide a master lease to ensure stable rental income even during vacancies, aiming for stable operations.

### Benefits of Short-Term Operation
- Reduced Investment Risk
While all investments carry risks, short-term operations end in a few months, reducing the probability of issues such as significant market changes or operator bankruptcy.
- Faster Capital Recovery
In the event of unexpected financial difficulties, short-term investments allow for a shorter capital commitment period, enabling investors to plan their finances more realistically.
