Calare Properties Acquires 103,200 SF Industrial/Flex Building in Prime Route 128 South Location

November 21, 2017

Calare announced today that it has acquired 15-21 University Road in Canton, Mass. Situated at the juncture of Route 128 and I-95, this industrial/flex
property is located in a prime in-fill market with high tenant demand, low supply and rising rental rates. The off-market acquisition was delivered
vacant and presents a compelling value-add opportunity for Calare to upgrade the property and re-lease at market rates.

The well-maintained 103,200 SF property sits on 17 acres and features 14 loading docks, six drive-in docks, over 300 parking spaces and flexible floor
plans. With a diverse range of retail, dining and transportation options nearby, 15-21 University Road presents a highly desirable location for tenants
in the manufacturing, distribution and retail sectors.

“Just 15 miles from Boston, 15-21 University Road is a well-positioned asset and an ideal value-add opportunity for our investors in a market experiencing
exceptional demand and competitive pricing for assets of this caliber,” said Bill Manley, CEO and CIO of Calare. “Through a strategic capital improvement
program designed to upgrade property systems and infrastructure, we are confident of the opportunity to drive significant capital appreciation.”

Calare will execute base building improvements such as new roofs, HVAC upgrades, re-paved parking areas, updated landscaping and cosmetic enhancements
to the facade. Calare is also pursuing plans to implement solar technology on the property’s roof. “The location and accessibility are almost impossible
to replicate in the 128 South market,” said Todd Barclay, VP of Acquisitions. “The building lays out very well for one or multiple tenants and given
the low supply of available product, we expect significant tenant interest in property.”

The firm has partnered with JLL as its primary leasing broker and Calare has already received numerous inquiries from potential tenants interested in the
property.

Canton’s Route 128 South submarket is the second-largest industrial submarket in the Greater Boston Area with a low vacancy rate of 7.9 percent as of Q3
2017, according to analysis from NAI Hunneman. The submarket has experienced rising leasing demand with asking rents steadily increasing over $7.24
per SF over the past quarter. 15-21 University Road offers an ideal location within this submarket with direct access to Amtrak and the MBTA Commuter
Rail, as well as Interstates 95 and 93. The property is also less than a mile from Westwood’s thriving University Station, a 2 million SF mixed-use
development featuring a range of retail, dining and hospitality offerings.
