West Coast, Best Coast? Exploring Successful Capital Deployment Strategies

Southern California serves as the top logistics hub in the Western Hemisphere, and as a result
experiences persistent demand for industrial properties. This panel of seasoned investors, owners and
developers discuss the immense opportunities presented by this thriving industrial sector. What
investment strategies tailored to the Southern California market are showing success? What kind of
performance and returns can investors expect from storage, distribution, transportation and shipping,
logistics, aerospace and defense? What is the interest level from international investors?

Rising development costs, construction hurdles, one of the nation’s highest tax rates, the Measure ULA
transfer tax, and persistent migration of companies moving to states with friendlier corporate tax
environments all present serious challenges for commercial real estate investors and developers active
in the SoCal market. As the region identifies the need for more multifamily and affordable housing
options, how can investors and developers be successful in such a challenging environment? What
innovative approaches, financing models, and partnerships enable development in a way that aligns
investment strategies and maximizes returns? Recognizing the affordability crisis, this panel will shed
light on the critical aspect and hurdles to breaking ground. What can the government do to help present
a more real estate friendly environment?

As the commercial real estate industry powers through the biggest downturn since the global financial
crisis, how and where are seasoned investors deploying capital? What strategies are investors deploying
to capitalize on current market conditions? What type of capital do they have at their disposal and what
creative deal structures are they using? What is the level of interest the L.A. market is receiving from
both domestic and international investors? How are L.A. politics impacting investor decisions?

12:30 PM  – 1:35PM PT

Networking Luncheon

The debt markets have tightened dramatically, but capital still exists for key lending and investment
opportunities. How significant is the opportunity today for those with capital to deploy?  How do those
in need of refinancing find capital? This panel of active market lenders and investors explore recently
closed financings, their capital stack preferences, underwriting standards and what they see on the
horizon for 2024.

1:35 PM  – 2:20 PM PT

Capitalizing on Distressed Opportunities: How Savvy Investors are Positioning Opportunistic Capital

The commercial real estate industry hasn’t seen an investment opportunity like this since the global
financial crisis, and a unique opportunity exists for investors with capital to lean in and capitalize on a
once-in-a-cycle window. Those investors that anticipated and prepared for this moment are deploying
opportunistic capital through a variety of strategies. This panel will explore how distressed asset
purchases, performing and non-performing loan portfolio acquisitions, rescue capital, preferred equity
investments and loan-to-loan financing are creating rare opportunities in the current market. What
turnaround tactics are being used to reposition troubled assets? Which sectors have the most
distressed?
