- The Spin-Off followed W. P. Carey’s contribution of certain office properties to NLOP.

Financial Metrics and Liquidity
The filing text provided does not include the numerical amounts from Exhibit 99.1. Accordingly, revenue, net income, cash flow, margins, debt, liquidity, assets, liabilities and other key financial metrics cannot be determined from the supplied text.
The pro forma financial statements are intended to illustrate the effects of the Spin-Off and related adjustments and may not represent NLOP’s actual historical results as an independent company.
Material Changes Versus the Prior Comparable Period
The principal change is the creation of NLOP as a standalone public company through the separation from W. P. Carey and the transfer of specified office properties. The filing does not provide sufficient numerical data to quantify changes in operating results, leverage, margins or liquidity versus prior periods.

- Identified risk factors include inflation, higher interest rates, tenant credit and rent-payment risks, pandemics, geopolitical crises, military conflict, political instability, civil unrest and other macroeconomic uncertainties.
- The filing states that actual results may differ materially from forward-looking statements and that NLOP generally does not undertake to update those statements except as required by law.

Investor Verification Checklist
- Review Exhibit 99.1 for the actual pro forma revenue, operating income, net income, cash flow, assets, liabilities, debt and liquidity amounts.
- Assess the pro forma adjustments and determine which expenses, financing arrangements and corporate costs will apply to NLOP as an independent company.
- Verify the transferred office-property portfolio, tenant concentration, lease maturities and tenant credit quality.
- Evaluate debt terms, interest-rate exposure, debt-service obligations and planned property dispositions.
- Review the Form 10 and Information Statement for detailed risk factors, REIT qualification requirements and separation-related contingencies.
