One Beverly Hills, a landmark 17.5-acre luxury mixed-use project, is being developed by Cain and master planned by Foster + Partners. The development will be anchored by Aman Beverly Hills, bringing Aman's first West Coast hotel, Aman-branded residences, and Aman Club to Beverly Hills. The masterplan will also include a full-scale refurbishment of The Beverly Hilton, preserving the Hollywood landmark's status as a premier luxury destination while integrating it into the broader masterplan. Alongside its hospitality and residential offerings, One Beverly Hills will feature 10 acres of botanical gardens and open space, creating a lush, walkable setting with high-end retail, dining, and cultural experiences woven into the landscape.


Construction on the One Beverly Hills development commenced in 2024, with vertical works beginning in the fall of 2025 and phased delivery scheduled to commence in 2027. The VICI Mezzanine Loan has an initial term of 4 years with one 12-month extension option and will be deployed over the course of the initial term, providing for consistent, monthly capital allocation. VICI intends to fund the investment with cash on hand.


Key Commentary – One Beverly Hills Construction Financing:

<ul xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="bwlistdisc">
<li xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Jonathan Goldstein, Co-Founder and CEO of Cain: "We greatly value VICI's conviction in One Beverly Hills. This financing marks a meaningful step forward, and we are thrilled to be delivering what will be one of the most significant destinations in North America with them as our partners. Since establishing our relationship in early 2025, it has become clear that Cain, Eldridge Industries, and VICI share a strong alignment on the growth of experiential real estate, and we look forward to building on this together."

</li>
<li xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
David Kieske, CFO of VICI Properties: "This significant increase in VICI's participation in the financing of One Beverly Hills reflects our confidence in Cain's experiential placemaking capabilities and the standing of Beverly Hills as one of the world's foremost luxury markets."

</li>
</ul>
In connection with this increase in VICI's participation in the financing of the One Beverly Hills development, Cain, Eldridge Industries, and VICI have agreed in principle pursuant to a non-binding letter of intent to further their strategic relationship that was first announced in February 2025.


The letter of intent expresses Cain, Eldridge Industries, and VICI's shared intention to expand their strategic relationship into an Experiential Cross-Capital Venture ("ECCV") whereby the three companies will, when suitable, work together to identify, pursue, and potentially participate in the funding of each other's experiential investment activities in various structures. Accordingly, it is the intention of Cain, Eldridge Industries, and VICI that, upon maturity of the VICI Mezzanine Loan, the companies will seek opportunities to deploy VICI's returned capital into new experiential investments that meet each company's investment criteria. Additionally, VICI may from time to time and at its sole election present to Cain and Eldridge Industries experiential investment opportunities in which Cain and/or Eldridge Industries may participate.


Key Commentary – ECCV:

<ul xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="bwlistdisc">
<li xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Todd Boehly, Chairman and CEO of Eldridge Industries: "Our strategic relationship with VICI is built on a shared view of the continuing growth of the experiential economy and identifying partners to allocate capital and generate returns. We are excited to explore compelling opportunities to capitalize on that growth together."

</li>
<li xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Edward Pitoniak, CEO of VICI Properties: "The experiential portfolio that Cain and Eldridge Industries have developed is proof to us that, through our relationship with these companies, we have the opportunity to support their experiential investment activities while they, at the same time, can potentially support our experiential investment activities, with capital potentially being committed in both directions."
