Overview Rithm Property Trust (formerly Great Ajax Corp.), a Maryland corporation, is an externally managed REIT formed on January 30, 2014, and capitalized on March 28, 2014, by its then sole stockholder, Aspen Yo LLC, an affiliate of the Aspen Capital group of companies. The Company focuses on investments in the CRE sector. On June 11, 2024, the Company completed its previously announced strategic transaction with Rithm (such transactions together, the “Strategic Transaction”). In connection with the Strategic Transaction, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) pursuant to which, following stockholder approval on May 20, 2024, it issued $14.0 million of common stock, par value $0.01 (“Common Stock”), to Rithm. The Company also entered into a management agreement, dated June 11, 2024 (as amended by that First Amendment to the Management Agreement, dated October 18, 2024, and as further amended by that Second Amendment to the Management Agreement, dated February 12, 2026, and as may be further amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Management Agreement”) with RCM GA, which became the Company’s external manager; terminated its prior management agreement; entered into a term loan with a subsidiary of Rithm; and issued warrants to Rithm to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company relocated its corporate headquarters to New York, New York, and on December 2, 2024, rebranded and changed its name to Rithm Property Trust Inc. In connection with the Strategic Transaction, the Company terminated its prior loan servicing arrangement and disposed of its interest in Great Ajax FS LLC. Effective June 1, 2024, servicing of the Company’s mortgage loans and real property was transferred to Newrez, an affiliate of Rithm and the Manager, pursuant to the Servicing Transfer Agreement (as defined below). The terms of the underlying servicing agreements remain unchanged. Under RCM GA’s management, the Company repositioned its business from a predominantly residential mortgage strategy to a flexible CRE focused investment strategy, which includes originating and acquiring CRE-related investments and managing a diversified portfolio of assets. The Company believes current market conditions are creating refinancing challenges and capital dislocations in the CRE sector that may present attractive risk-adjusted investment opportunities. Target investments may include senior and subordinated mortgage loans, mezzanine loans, preferred equity, commercial mortgage servicing rights, CRE properties and other CRE-related debt and equity investments. The Company has largely transitioned away from residential mortgage loans and RMBS and does not expect to make further investments in RPLs, NPLs or RMBS. The Company expects to finance its investments through a variety of capital sources, which may include secured and unsecured credit facilities, capital markets transactions, securitizations and other corporate financing arrangements, depending on market conditions and investment characteristics. Through its external Manager, the Company leverages Rithm’s real estate and capital markets expertise across sourcing, underwriting, financing, asset management and disposition. The Company believes the flexibility of its investment strategy and its ability to actively manage assets position it to generate attractive long-term returns for stockholders across a range of market conditions. In December 2025, as part of the execution of its CRE investment strategy, the Company acquired an indirect minority interest in PGOP, which through its affiliates and joint ventures owns a portfolio (the “PGRE Portfolio”) of CRE properties, through an investment (the “PGRE Investment”) in affiliated aggregator vehicles formed in connection with Rithm’s acquisition of Paramount Group, Inc. (“Paramount”). The PGRE Portfolio consists of ten properties: 1633 Broadway, 1301 Avenue of the Americas, 1325 Avenue of the Americas, 31 W 52nd Street, 712 Fifth Avenue, 1600 Broadway and 900 3rd Avenue in New York, New York and One Market Plaza, 300 Mission Street and One Front Street in San Francisco, California. The Company made an initial cash investment of $50.0 million and committed to make up to an additional $7.5 million of capital contributions under certain circumstances. The PGRE Investment was approved by the Company’s independent directors and was funded with cash on hand.…
