Such “forward-looking statements” reflect management’s current views with respect to certain future events and financial performance and include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. Words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “intend,” “plan,” “project” and similar expressions which indicate future events and trends may identify “forward-looking statements.” Such statements are based on currently available information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in the “forward-looking statements” and from historical trends. Certain “forward-looking statements” are based upon current assumptions of future events which may not prove to be accurate. Undue reliance should not be placed on “forward-looking statements,” as such statements speak only as of the date of this document. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in any “forward-looking statement” and from historical trends include, but are not limited to: • economic conditions, including consumer spending and plant and equipment investment in Hitachi’s major markets, particularly Japan, Asia, the United States and Europe, as well as levels of demand in the major industrial sectors Hitachi serves, including, without limitation, the information, electronics, automotive, construction and financial sectors; • exchange rate fluctuations of the yen against other currencies in which Hitachi makes significant sales or in which Hitachi’s assets and liabilities are denominated, particularly against the U.S. dollar and the euro; • uncertainty as to Hitachi’s ability to access, or access on favorable terms, liquidity or long-term financing; • uncertainty as to general market price levels for equity securities, declines in which may require Hitachi to write down equity securities that it holds; • the potential for significant losses on Hitachi’s investments in equity method affiliates; • increased commoditization of information technology products and digital media-related products and intensifying price competition for such products, particularly in the Digital Media & Consumer Products segment; • uncertainty as to Hitachi’s ability to continue to develop and market products that incorporate new technologies on a timely and cost-effective basis and to achieve market acceptance for such products; • rapid technological innovation; • the possibility of cost fluctuations during the lifetime of, or cancellation of, long-term contracts for which Hitachi uses the percentage-of-completion method to recognize revenue from sales; • fluctuations in the price of raw materials including, without limitation, petroleum and other materials, such as copper, steel, aluminum, synthetic resins, rare metals and rare-earth minerals, or shortages of materials, parts and components; • fluctuations in product demand and industry capacity; • uncertainty as to Hitachi’s ability to implement measures to reduce the potential negative impact of fluctuations in product demand, exchange rates and/or price of raw materials or shortages of materials, parts and components; • uncertainty as to Hitachi’s ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of its strategy to strengthen its Social Innovation Business; • uncertainty as to the success of restructuring efforts to improve management efficiency by divesting or otherwise exiting underperforming businesses and to strengthen competitiveness; • uncertainty as to the success of cost reduction measures; • general socioeconomic and political conditions and the regulatory and trade environment of countries where Hitachi conducts business, particularly Japan, Asia, the United States and Europe, including, without limitation, direct or indirect restrictions by other nations on imports and differences in commercial and business customs including, without limitation, contract terms and conditions and labor relations; • uncertainty as to the success of alliances upon which Hitachi depends, some of which Hitachi may not control, with other corporations in the design and development of certain key products; • uncertainty as to Hitachi’s access to, or ability to protect, certain intellectual property rights, particularly those related to electronics and data processing technologies; • uncertainty as to the outcome of litigation, regulatory investigations and other legal proceedings of which the Company, its subsidiaries or its equity method affiliates have become or may become parties; • the possibility of incurring expenses resulting from any defects in products or services of Hitachi; • the possibility of disruption of Hitachi’s operations by earthquakes, tsunamis or other natural disasters; • uncertainty as to Hitachi’s ability to maintain the integrity of its information systems, as well as Hitachi’s ability to protect its confidential information or that of its customers; • uncertainty as to the accuracy of key assumptions Hitachi uses to evaluate its significant employee benefit-related costs; and • uncertainty as to Hitachi’s ability to attract and retain skilled personnel.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT (Terms used but not defined in this Preliminary Statement shall have the meanings specified in Article I hereof) The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates to be issued hereunder in multiple classes which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund consisting primarily of the Mortgage Loans (including, in the case of the One Court Square Mortgage Loan, the One Court Square Trust REMIC Regular Interests). As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator will elect that two segregated portions of the Trust Fund (other than the Class A-S Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class B Specific Grantor Trust Assets, any Excess Interest Grantor Trust Assets, the Class C Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class EC Specific Grantor Trust Assets and the proceeds of the foregoing) be treated for federal income tax purposes as two separate REMICs (designated as the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC”, respectively). The Regular Certificates and the Class EC Regular Interests will represent “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, and the Upper-Tier Residual Interest will be the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC. There are also (i) 12 classes of uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular Interests issued under this Agreement (designated as the Class XX-0, Xxxxx XX-0, Class LA-3, Class LA-4, Class LA-AB, Class LA-S, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LE, Class LF and Class LG Interests), each of which will constitute a class of “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC, and (ii) the Lower-Tier Residual Interest, which will be the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Lower-Tier Regular Interests will be held by the Trustee as assets of the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class R Certificates will represent both the Lower-Tier Residual Interest and the Upper-Tier Residual Interest. In addition, on October 13, 2015, NREC formed the One Court Square REMIC with respect to part of the One Court Square Loan Combination, which issued three pro rata and pari passu regular interests (the “One Court Square REMIC A-1 Regular Interest”, the “One Court Square REMIC A-2 Regular Interest” and the “One Court Square REMIC A-3 Regular Interest (each, a “One Court Square REMIC Regular Interest”, and collectively, the “One Court Square REMIC Regular Interests”). Each One Court Square REMIC Regular Interest has a principal balance set forth below and for tax reporting purposes will be entitled to principal and interest and any other amounts payable on the One Court Square REMIC Regular Interest in the same proportion that its principal balance bears to the aggregate principal balance all of the One Court Square REMIC Regular Interests, as set forth below: One Court Square REMIC Regular Interest Corresponding One Court Square promissory note(s) Initial Principal Balance One Court Square REMIC A-1 Regular Interest One Court Square Promissory Note A-1 $50,000,000 One Court Square REMIC A-2 Regular Interest One Court Square Promissory Note X-0, Xxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx X-0 $95,000,000 One Court Square REMIC A-3 Regular Interest One Court Square Promissory Note X-0, Xxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx X-0 $90,000,000 Each One Court Square REMIC Regular Interest holder will be the owner of a percentage interest, specified below, in its corresponding One Court Square Promissory Note(s) other than for tax reporting purposes. The promissory note designated as “Note A-5” (the “One Court Square Promissory Note A-5”), which evidences the One Court Square Mortgage Loan and will be contributed to the Trust, represents a 21.0526% ownership interest in the One Court Square REMIC A-2 Regular Interest and a 22.2222% ownership interest in the One Court Square REMIC A-3 Regular Interest. The promissory note designated as “Note A-1” (the “One Court Square Promissory Note A-1”), which evidences one of the One Court Square Companion Loans and is not an asset of the Trust, evidences 100.0000% ownership of the One Court Square REMIC A-1 Regular Interest.

The promissory note designated as “Note A-3” (the “One Court Square Promissory Note A-3”), which evidences one of the One Court Square Companion Loans and is not an asset of the Trust, evidences 77.7778% ownership of the One Court Square REMIC A-3 Regular Interest. The promissory note designated as “Note A-4” (the “One Court Square Promissory Note A-4”), which evidences one of the One Court Square Companion Loans and is not an asset of the Trust and does not represent an ownership interest in any of the One Court Square REMIC Regular Interests or the One Court Square REMIC, was contributed to the Outside Securitization Trust related to the One Court Square Mortgage Loan. The residual interest in the One Court Square REMIC is not an asset of the Trust. The parties intend that (i) the portion of the Trust Fund representing the Class A-S Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class B Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class C Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class EC Specific Grantor Trust Assets, any Excess Interest Grantor Trust Assets and the proceeds of the foregoing will be treated as assets of a grantor trust under subpart E of Part I of subchapter J of the Code and (ii) the beneficial interests in such grantor trust will be represented by the Class A-S Certificates, the Class B Certificates, the Class C Certificates, the Class EC Certificates and any Excess Interest Certificates.
