2. COMMUNITY FOCUSED STRATEGY – CIM QUALIFIED COMMUNITIES 11 CIM GROUP OVERVIEW QUALIFICATION CRITERIA Transitional Urban Districts Improving demographics Broad public support for CIM’s investment approach Evidence of private investment from other institutional investors Underserved niches in the community’s real estate infrastructure Potential to invest a minimum of $100 million of opportunistic equity within five years Thriving Urban Areas Positive demographic trends Public support for investment Opportunities below intrinsic value Potential to invest a minimum of $100 million of opportunistic equity within five years CIM believes that its community qualification process provides it with a significant competitive advantage when making urban real assets investments. Since 1994, CIM has qualified 110 communities in high barrier-to-entry markets and has invested in 67 of the communities. The qualification process generally takes 6 months to 5 years and is a critical component of CIM’s investment evaluation. CIM examines the characteristics of a market to determine whether the district justifies the extensive efforts CIM undertakes in reviewing and making potential investments in its Qualified Communities. The communities are located in both primary and secondary urban centers, which can encompass (1) transitional urban districts and growth markets adjacent to Central Business Districts (“CBDs”) and/or (2) well-established, thriving urban areas including major CBDs. EXISTING QUALIFIED COMMUNITIES & CIM INVESTMENTS1 1 As of September 30, 2017. Note that multiple communities may be qualified within a larger city.

3. DISCIPLINE 12 CIM GROUP OVERVIEW Underwriting Employs current and long-term (generally based on 20-year historical averages) valuation metrics Underwriting of investments is performed on both a leveraged and unleveraged basis Leverage Investment strategy relies on sound business plan execution, not financial engineering CIM generally enters into non-recourse loans and does not provide fund repayment guarantees1 Match debt maturity with expected hold periods based on the business plan of the investment Research Proprietary research on Qualified Communities based on CIM’s prior experience and relationships in the community with government agencies, property owners, co-sponsors and national and regional retail tenants In-house services allow CIM to benefit from real-time market and asset-level intelligence in order to operate assets more efficiently CIM mitigates risk throughout the development and execution of its business plan for investments, leveraging the breadth and skill of CIM’s vertically-integrated organization Returns are primarily driven by improved asset and community performance, not by financial engineering 1 Except for standard “bad boy” carve-outs and completion guarantees.

Net operating income ReconciliationS (1/4) 38 CIM Commercial internally evaluates the operating performance and financial results of its segments based on segment net operating income, which is defined as rental and other property income and expense reimbursements less property related expenses and excludes non-property income and expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, corporate related general and administrative expenses, gain (loss) on sale of real estate, transaction costs and provision for income taxes. We also evaluate the operating performance and financial results of our operating segments using cash basis net operating income (“Cash NOI”). We define Cash NOI as segment NOI adjusted to exclude the effect of the straight lining of rents, acquired above/below market lease amortization and other adjustments required by GAAP. Segment NOI and Cash NOI are not a measure of operating results or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to income from continuing operations, or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity, or as an indication of our performance or of our ability to pay dividends. All companies may not calculate segment NOI or Cash NOI in the same manner. We consider segment NOI and Cash NOI to be useful performance measures to investors and management because, when compared across periods, they reflect the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating our properties and the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from income from continuing operations. Additionally, we believe that Cash NOI is helpful to investors because it eliminates straight line rent and other non-cash adjustments to revenue and expenses. Below is a reconciliation of Cash NOI to segment net operating income and net income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES 42 Assets and Equity Under Management Assets Under Management (“AUM”), or Gross AUM, represents (i)(a) for real assets, the aggregate total gross assets (“GAV”) at fair value, including the shares of such assets owned by joint venture partners and co-investments, of all of CIM’s advised accounts (each an “Account” and collectively, the “Accounts”) or (b) for operating companies, the aggregate GAV less debt, including the shares of such assets owned by joint venture partners and co-investments, of all of the Accounts (not in duplication of the assets described in (i)(a)), plus (ii) the aggregate unfunded commitments of the Accounts, as of June 30, 2017 (“Report Date”). The GAV is calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles on a fair value basis (the “Book Value”) and generally represents the investment’s third-party appraised value as of the Report Date, or as of June 30, 2017, as adjusted further by the result of any partial realizations and quarterly valuation adjustments based upon management’s estimate of fair value, in each case through the Report Date other than as described below with respect to CIM REIT. The only investment currently held by CIM REIT consists of shares in CIM Commercial Trust Corporation (“CMCT”), a publicly traded company; the Book Value of CIM REIT is determined by assuming the underlying assets of CMCT are liquidated based upon management’s estimate of fair value. CIM does not presently view the price of CMCT’s publicly-traded shares to be a meaningful indication of the fair value of CIM REIT’s interest in CMCT due to the fact that the publicly-traded shares of CMCT represent less than 3% of the outstanding shares of CMCT and are thinly-traded. Equity Under Management (“EUM”), or Net AUM, represents (i) the aggregate NAV of the Accounts (as described below), plus (ii) the aggregate unfunded commitments of the Accounts. The NAV of each Account is based upon the aggregate amounts that would be distributable (prior to incentive fee allocations) to such Account assuming a “hypothetical liquidation” of the Account on the date of determination, assuming that: (x) investments are sold at their Book Value (as defined above); (y) debts are paid and other assets are collected; and (z) appropriate adjustments and/or allocations between equity investors are made in accordance with applicable documents, in each case as determined in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Net Asset Value The estimated Net Asset Value (“NAV”) contained herein is CMCT’s pro forma NAV giving effect to certain transactions that have not been completed. Accordingly, the NAV contained herein is different from the estimated NAV described in the S-11 and must not be treated as the “Applicable NAV” for purposes of CMCT’s Series A Preferred Stock offering. The determination of estimated NAV involves a number of subjective assumptions, estimates and judgments that may not be accurate or complete. Further, different firms using different property-specific, general real estate, capital markets, economic and other assumptions, estimates and judgments could derive an estimated NAV that could be significantly different from our estimated NAV. Additionally, our estimated NAV does not give effect to changes in value, investment activities, capital activities, indebtedness levels and other various activities occurring after June 30, 2017 that would have an impact on our estimated NAV, other than the sale of assets that were sold or are under contract for sale as of October 24, 2017 (7083 Hollywood Boulevard, 800 North Capitol Street, 370 L’Enfant Promenade, 4200 Scotland Street and 47 E 34th Street) and the $65M of unsecured debt pay down made in August 2017. The estimated NAV per share of $22.28 was calculated by CIM Investment Advisors, LLC, relying in part on appraisals of our real estate investments and the assets of our lending segment. The table on page 32 sets forth the material items included in the calculation of our estimated NAV. We engaged various third party appraisal firms to perform appraisals of our real estate investments and the assets of our lending segment as of December 31, 2016. Except for two multifamily properties and three office properties that were sold or are under contract for sale as of October 24, 2017, the fair values of our investments in real estate were based on appraisals obtained as of December 31, 2016 plus capex additions, at cost, incurred thereafter. The fair values of our two multifamily properties and three office properties were based on actual proceeds received when the properties were sold, or expected proceeds to be received, based on purchase and sale agreements entered into with unrelated third parties. The fair values of the assets of our lending segment were based on an appraisal obtained as of December 31, 2016 plus loan activity, at cost, incurred thereafter. The December 31, 2016 appraisals were performed in accordance with standards set forth by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Each of our appraisals was prepared by personnel who are subject to and in compliance with the code of professional ethics and the standards of professional conduct set forth by the certification programs of the professional appraisal organizations of which they are members.
