(Previous section omitted)

The main fees related to construction (the "Construction Costs") of the Project are currently expected to be a total of 4,686 million yen(excluding consumption tax). The Construction Costs are scheduled to be paid in installments corresponding to the completed amount of construction and will be capitalized as construction in progress in each period based on the timing of payment.

(Following section omitted)

  1. Expected Revenue and Expenses of the Project (Before the change)
    Rental revenues from the real estate business will not be generated during the period from the start of the Project to the completion of construction (scheduled from December 2021 to March 2024). The income and expenditure after the completion of this business is also undecided at this time because it will fluctuate depending on the tenant's occupancy status. However, we expect to generate real estate leasing business revenues during the cruising period in which tenant occupancy is anticipated, as shown below.

2. Future Prospect

As the Project is scheduled to be completed in June 2024, the impact of the Project and the conclusion of the construction change contract this time on the management status forecast for the fiscal period ended May 2022 (33rd fiscal period) and the fiscal period ending November 2022 (34th fiscal period) is minimal, and there are no revisions to previously released forecasts.

3. (Reference) About Taisei Corporation's TASMO construction method

The TASMO (TAisei Smart MOnitoring system) construction method will be employed for the building. TASMO is a damping structure system that imparts necessary rigidity and focuses the absorption of seismic energy from a major earthquake to steel dampers, by connecting wall pillars having wall foundation rotation performance with steel dampers, in order to mitigate damage to the building body. (See Fig. 1 below). It is a system that takes into consideration the business continuity plan (BCP), and can be counted on not only to save human lives in the aftermath of a major earthquake, but also to sustain the building performance by preventing damage to nonstructural components. Furthermore, by constructing a frame system made up of wall pillars as the outer shell structure, which is situated along the perimeter, it becomes possible for the building to realize areas that have no pillar forms, and create very spacious and highly innovative office space (See Fig. 2 below).

TASMO is a technology that Taisei Corporation has patented. Last year, TASMO was presented with the Infrastructure Technology Development Award's most prestigious prize, the MLIT Minister's Award, as an outstanding new technology for the construction industry.
