Important MessageTo Prospective lenders
3. 3. How doesthe DolphinTrust opportunity operate?
Dolphin Trust loans money from qualifying individuals in the United Kingdom in the form of loan notes issued by a German
property SPV which is usually a group company or subsidiary of Dolphin Trust. The terms of the loan notes are set out in the
loan note instrument, which include fixed returns of interest and capital. The loan note instrument and associated documents
have been drafted by UK lawyers with experience in banking, finance and financial services and scrutinised by a variety of
SIPP Providers.
Dolphin Trust uses the loan money to fund its work with German Listed Buildings. The Company carefully sources Listed
Buildings that require renovation. This is because, in Germany, the German Government offer a unique tax break to
encourage German citizens to purchase renovated German Listed Buildings.
The apartments within the German Listed Buildings are sold off-plan (before renovation work commences) through a well-
established network of German sales agents. Payments are released by the buyers, usually through German Banks, on a
phased basis. This enables the agreed Interest and subsequently capital repayments to be made to the lenders who provided
the initial loan funds to Dolphin Trust at the outset.
4.The opportunity Options
The Dolphin Trust opportunity has two options. With both
options interest of 10% per annum is payable over either a
2-year or 5-year term.
1. The Deferred Income Option
When the Deferred Income Option is chosen, all interest
payable on the amount loaned is rolled up and payable only at
the end of the term (there are no regular interest payments).
At the end of the chosen term lenders will receive the
original money lent, all accrued interest plus a bonus interest
payment of 2% for lenders who choose the 2-year term or
10% for lenders who choose the 5-year term. An example of
how this works is set out below.

2. The Income Option
Lenders choosing the Income Option can enjoy the same
interest payments (10% per annum over either a 2-year or a
5-year term) but interest payments are made every 6 months.
The original money lent is then returned at the end of the
chosen term.
