The California Distressed Land Assets Fund Ltd A Timely & Compelling Investment Opportunity  April 2010
Executive Summary CDLAF will take advantage of unprecedented opportunities in buying Distressed US Non-Performing Real Property and First Charge Mortgages at discounted valuations of up to 50%. The Fund’s Sponsor and the Managers individually bring 25+ years experience of real property management in the U.S. totaling more than $7bn of successful projects in over 300 past partnerships. CDLAF gains access to this long term strategic network of local managers who provide  access to distressed assets using superior knowledge and local execution capabilities. The Fund will invest the majority of capital in 2010-2012 through acquisitions that concentrate on core gateway cities with the strongest prospects for recovery with properties that require value-added strategies.  Acquisitions are screened in order to meet the Fund’s objectives of short term holding periods, known clean exits, which still meet the objectives of the fund through strategies focused on downside protection yet offering substantial upside opportunity. Full transparency on all assets with third-party administrators, auditors and external fund controls to inform and protect the investor’s interests. The Fund seeks USD155 million of committed capital to be funded in split tax years with initial closing on June 30, 2010. Minimum subscription USD 2 million.    2

  • 20. Why U.S. Real Estate? 8 US real estate values have fallen more than 35% from peak values. Strong market impetus created where jobs and home prices have the best affordability since 1981. The US has seen a greater alignment of income levels and house prices than most developed markets. http://www.housingwire.com/2010/03/09/economists-find-us-house-prices-are-undervalued-globally/ Recent trends are highly correlated to the best affordability in 20 years.http://www.nuwireinvestor.com/articles/home-affordability-increases-to-near-record-level-54754.aspx US home foreclosures are forecast to taper off strongly by the 2nd Qtr of 2011, exhibited in the Rate Resets chart. Sales of new and existing homes, now at more than twice the level of foreclosures, have been accelerating over the past six months. With inventories falling by half, markets are now exhibiting price stability as the forces of supply and demand start to balance in many cities. The government is active in strongly supporting the housing market through purchase schemes and relaxed rules supporting homeownership. http://blogs.wsj.com/developments/2010/01/14/ubss-10-predictions-for-housing-in-2010/tab/article/ 8

Basket A shall hold the short term cash. Basket B shall start out as a primary acquisition in 2010, with Basket C quickly becoming the primarily asset type, once the cycle moves from distressed to stability and recovery. Investment opportunities are presented to the investment committee by local managers, which are reviewed by senior managers of Spring Asset Management and Strand Corporation. This ensures that seasoned successful real estate and investment professionals review all opportunities. Each real property investment requires a minimum of 10% in aggregate equity, from non CDLAF sources thus having “skin in the game”. Full transparency, with third party administration and independent audit controls and third party fund controls, which allows the Fund to meet institutional standards in supervisory and regulatory controls through its infrastructure with regard to investment strategy, risk management and client services. Upon the sale of major assets, funds remaining after reserves are disbursed back to the investors, in a tax efficient manner. Alignment of interest, between sponsor and managers who need to meet minimum hurdles of 8% but have additional rewards when they individually achieve 25% returns or greater for the Delaware Corporation. 12
  • 47. Portfolio Composition 13 Investments allocated across 3 baskets Basket A Short term cash management Basket C Foreclosed real property assets (REO) and equity loans to local operators Basket B Highly discounted non-performing mortgages and pools of toxic assets from the failed banks The above performance is based on an investment of USD 2,000,000 and assumes a return pre US-Tax, and is using a combination of non-leverage and leverage in the assumptions.
  • 48. Projected Returns 14 The above performance is based on an investment of USD 2,000,000. The gross figure assumes a return pre US Tax, and is using a combination of non-leverage and leverage in the assumptions. The net return is based on current tax law which may change over the life of the fund.

  • 57. For investors with an income tax treaty between their country of residence and the United States, the Sponsor may create an alternative investment structure to invest on a side by side basis with the Jersey company. For example, if it is more tax efficient to do so, companies resident in Canada, the United Kingdom or Germany may invest in the Fund through the voting shares and debt securities of a single Delaware corporation, which in turn may invest in every LLC holding one of the Fund’s portfolios.* Subscriptions open to non-US investors only for the Jersey Fund.
  • 58. Fund Terms and Service Providers 17
  • 59. Conclusion Focused micro-oriented real estate fund utilising experienced local managers to take advantage of the opportunities in the distressed  US real properties market. Buys first charge residential mortgages and foreclosed properties which need to be liquidated by the failed banks resulting in motivated sellers and thus risk-adjusted acquisitions. Skillful managers who will seek to repeat their prior success of over 25 years by acquiring distressed real property assets, as well as capital for managers who have opportunities in their local markets. Alignment of interest given managers and sponsors high hurdle rate, co-investments and third party controls and supervisions. Open access via web to investment committee meetings. Full access to all financial obligations and accounting. Clear trends that suggest lower inventories despite foreclosures and accelerating demand as a result of economic stability. Strong governmental support and long term programme intended to make homeownership compelling. Distribution of all revenues, net of reserves back to the investors with the first liquidity event within 18 months after acquisition. Investors may reinvest these funds back to CDLAF, net of establishment fees. Targeting high teen to mid twenty returns, prior to US taxes using a tax efficient structure built for EU Corporations, Pension Plans, Insurance Company and high net worth individuals. Cut off for new investments on December 31, 2013. Winding up objective of 6 years, unless extended by approval of the shareholders. 18
