THIS REPRESENTS A DECREASE OF €9.73 €8.19 million (1.5%) and million (1.5%) RESPECTIVELY, FROM 31 MARCH 2014. The decrease is mainly due to a small valuation loss in the Aristo portfolio, as well as to regular operating expenses, offset by revaluation gains in Amankea.

Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Interim Review Period ended 30 June 2014 9 CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT DAVID B. HELLER I am pleased to report Dolphin’s results for the first half of 2014. During the period, we made continued progress towards achieving our strategic priorities within a challenging, but constantly improving market. The opening of The Nikki Beach Resort & Spa at Porto Heli on 28 July 2014 demonstrated once again the Company’s ability to create high-end luxury resorts on time and on budget, even within demanding economic conditions. The resort further enhanced The Porto Heli Collection offering, and we have received extremely positive feedback from our guests. The operations of Amanzoe, the first villa-integrated Aman resort in Europe and one of the most exclusive destinations in the Mediterranean, continue their excellent performance, with occupancy again reaching almost 100% on many days during the peak holiday season. Amanzoe is increasingly regarded as one of the top leisure-integrated residential resorts in the world, with consistently outstanding reviews in the top-tier international press. It is also encouraging to note that one more Aman Villa has been reserved since the Company’s last Trading Update, while there are several Aman Villa sales at advanced discussions, with completion expected soon. The completion of Colony’s €40.4 million investment into Amanzoe established Dolphin’s strategic relationship with one of the world’s leading real estate investors, and we are looking into other areas of cooperation. I am particularly pleased that we have made significant progress with regard to both the bank financing and the receipt of final permits at Kilada Hills Golf Resort and Amankea. Kilada Hills Golf Resort is the third phase of The Porto Heli Collection and it will enhance the existing offering with a prestigious Jack Nicklaus Signature 18-hole golf course. Amankea will be the second Aman branded resort in Greece and the first one developed on a European island. The Company has initiated a competitive sale process for Venus Rock Golf Resort, with a view to achieving the (whole or partial) sale of the asset, and which should help offset the sales performance of Aristo, which continues to fall below management’s expectations. In parallel, the Dolphin team is looking at opportunities for small or large scale exits of non-core assets such as Porto Kundu, sold earlier this year. The Greek and other governments remain committed to attracting and facilitating inward investment, and we welcome the recent legislative reforms, which are expected to benefit tourism development and large scale projects. The Company’s NAV, before and after DITL, as at 30 June 2014 is reported at €638 million and €552 million, respectively, and the NAV per share before and after DITL in Euro terms was €0.99 and €0.86 respectively, representing a 5.7% and 5.5% increase from 31 December 2013. David B. Heller, Chairman Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Interim Review Period ended 30 June 2014 10 INVESTMENT MANAGER’S REPORT The main focus of our team for 2014 continues to be securing solid progress and funding in all stages of development of our portfolio (ranging from securing permitting to construction and sales) and realising exits that further validate the value of the portfolio and crystallise value for shareholders. Pierre Charalambides, Founding Partner, and Miltos Kambourides, Managing Partner The opening of The Nikki Beach Resort & Spa in the summer of 2014 was, as expected, a very gratifying and important milestone in the Company’s development, representing the second of our luxury resorts to come to market and the completion of the second phase of The Porto Heli Collection. Amanzoe’s second year of operations is further improved, while the resort continues to serve as a showcase of Dolphin’s development capabilities, profit potential and vision. Sales activity has continued to gain momentum in recent months, with a number of potential transactions under negotiation. Positive signs are seen in the senior debt local financing environment as well as in the availability for mezzanine facilities. We feel that the timing is right for completing the construction of infrastructure and leisure facilities of some additional key projects, such as Kilada Hills, Pearl Island and Amankea, in order to produce more luxury residential supply to satisfy the increasing demand and realise value for the Company. Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Interim Review Period ended 30 June 2014 11 INVESTMENT MANAGER’S REPORT Divestments, investments & other updates SYROS, GREECE On 19 September 2014, Zoniro entered into a binding pre-agreement with a foreign investor group for the sale of 10 land plots on the island of Syros. The land was part of the Aristo Greek portfolio, which was 100% retained by DCI following the divestment of 50.2% of Aristo in 2012. The transaction net consideration payable to Zoniro amounts to €1.94 million, of which the Company has already received a non-refundable advance of €0.22 million. The transaction consideration will be received in staged payments over the next 10 months and €1.15 million from the proceeds will be used for the repayment of debt which was secured against the plots. The transaction represents a 26% premium to the asset’s book value. DOLPHIN CAPITAL AMERICAS (‘DCA’) Following the Letter of Intent signed by DCA to acquire one of the largest privately owned islands in the Bahamas through a corporate merger transaction on 24 March 2014, the Company conducted extensive due diligence and decided not to proceed at this point, as it was not comfortable with the project’s expected rate of return versus Dolphin’s existing projects. €40.4 MILLION INVESTMENT BY COLONY CAPITAL INTO AMANZOE As announced on 8 August 2014, Colony Capital Acquisitions LLC (‘Colony’) entered into final agreements with DolphinCI Fourteen Ltd (the Company’s Cyprus subsidiary which holds the Group’s shareholding in Amanzoe) for a €40.4 million second priority loan facility (the ‘Facility’) into Amanzoe. The full loan facility proceeds have been drawn down as follows: a. an amount of €10 million was used to refund a deposit that Archimedia Holdings Corp. (‘Archimedia’) had advanced to the Company in the context of the corresponding Profit Sharing Agreement as reported by the Company on 26 March 2014, thus terminating the agreement in question; b. an amount of €21 million was returned to DCI; while c. an amount of €9 million was retained by Amanzoe for future expansion and development costs. The transaction establishes a strategic relationship with Colony, one of the world’s leading and most respected real estate investors with significant experience in large scale luxury integrated resorts, and accelerates the return on capital to DCI in the Amanzoe investment. AMANKEA GREECE On 28 July 2014, Amankea officially qualified to receive state subsidies, amounting to c. €4.9 million, for the construction of the project’s leisure components. Amankea is also in the final stage of negotiations with a major regional bank for a €22 million long term senior construction loan facility, a c. €7 million VAT bridge facility for the construction cost input VAT and a €5.4 million Letter of Guarantee for the pre-financing of the above mentioned state subsidies. The completion of this loan facility is expected within Q4 2014 and depends on the finalisation of the bank’s due diligence on the project, the conclusion of definitive documentation and final bank approval. The Amankea construction can begin as soon as the construction drawings are completed and the final construction permit is received, but remains subject to finalising the funding package which, in addition to the bank financing, would require an equity contribution or third party investment of approximately €16 million. Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Interim Review Period ended 30 June 2014 12 INVESTMENT MANAGER’S REPORT Cash Generation Potential of the Dolphin portfolio The Advanced Projects are spread over 3,733 hectares of land, of which 1,508 hectares represent the current phases of these developments. The total unsold residential capacity of these projects is approximately 470,000 buildable m2, of which circa 240,000 m2 are planned for their current phases. 1 The Porto Heli Collection: page 18 2 Plans for the current phases of the Advanced Projects include the development of four luxury hotels, comprising the first Aman residential resort in Europe (Amanzoe – operating), the first Aman golf-integrated resort worldwide (Playa Grande – planned to open in Q3 2015), the first Nikki Beach resort in the Mediterranean (operating), and the first Ritz Carlton Reserve resort in Central America (Pearl Island – expected to start construction in Q1 2015 subject to the conclusion of debt financing and the availability of equity funds); as well as the recently renovated golf course in Playa Grande designed by Robert Trent Jones Snr. and renovated by his son Rees Jones, the two 18-hole golf courses in Venus Rock Golf Resort (the first of which is currently operating) and the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course at Kilada. Dolphin’s remaining portfolio includes: • Two additional fully permitted leisure-integrated residential resort projects, Amankea and Sitia Bay Resort, which are ready to assume Advanced Project status and are spread over 345 hectares of land with a potential capacity of c. 140,000 residential buildable m2. • Eight major leisure-integrated residential resort projects spread over 1,811 hectares of land, on seven of which we conservatively expect to build and sell c. 430,000 residential buildable m2, representing a very low c. 3% building coefficient, while one is expected to be exited on a wholesale basis. These projects are expected to further increase in value as they complete their permitting and design phase and reach Advanced Project status. Venus Rock Golf Course: page 28 3 • Residual developable land or coefficient since, under the current plans, not all the land or building capacity of the Major Projects will be utilised. Playa Grande Club & Reserve: page 34 4 •Aristo Developers, the largest developer and private land owner in Cyprus, which currently has c. 60,000 buildable m2 of residential product in stock or under construction and c. 314,000 land m2 in the form of readily available land plots with a total listed sales potential of over €124 million. In addition, Aristo holds an additional vast portfolio of land assets with the potential to sell over 900,000 residential buildable m2 once fully developed. Dolphin retains a strategic 49.8% shareholding in Aristo. Based on the above, the Investment Manager estimates Dolphin’s total project portfolio cash return potential to be approximately €3.9 billion, or c. 477p per share. This includes only c. €30 million of dividends expected from the sale of Venus Rock and excludes any dividends or other divestment revenues from Aristo – a development company with ongoing operations and a diverse portfolio of real estate projects.

Destinations worldwide received some 517 million international tourists between January and June 2014, 22 million more than in the same period of 2013. Growth was strong across the board, with the Americas recording a 6% increase, followed by Asia and the Pacific and Europe (both at +5%). By sub-region, South Asia and Northern Europe (both +8%) were the best performers, together with North-East Asia and Southern Mediterranean Europe (both +7%). In general, the most important observations, for the countries we are invested in, are as follows: •Tourist arrivals in Greece from January to August 2014 increased by almost 16% compared to the same period of 2013, based on preliminary results issued by the country’s main airports. This remarkable performance has led to the upward revision of the estimated international arrivals for 2014 from an initial 19 million to an all-time record of 19.5 million (despite the loss of additional tourist arrivals from Russia and Ukraine due to the political instability). • Tourist arrivals in Cyprus for the period January to August 2014 totalled approximately 1.7 million, representing a 6% increase from the corresponding period in 2013. • For the same eight-month period, Croatia experienced a 5% rise in tourist arrivals compared to 2013, as around 10.6 million arrivals were registered according to statistics collected by local tourism boards. •The number of visitors arriving in Turkey from January to June 2014 increased by 2.8% compared to the same period in the previous year according to provisional data acquired from the General Directorate of Security and the Turkish Statistical Institute, reaching approximately 17.5 million. •The number of tourists visiting the Dominican Republic for the period January to June 2014 totalled 3.16 million and was up by c. 8.3% relative to the same period of 2013. •Tourist arrivals in Panama for the period January to June 2014 totalled over 1.8 million, an increase of approximately 5.5% relative to the same period of 2013. In addition, and relevant to DCI’s focus on HNWIs, the Wealth-X and UBS Billionaire Census 2014 demonstrated that the wealthy population continues to grow significantly. +8.3% PA NAMA +5.5% Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Interim Review Period ended 30 June 2014 15 INVESTMENT MANAGER’S REPORT STRATEGIC FOCUS The strategic priorities of the Company are to: 1 # COMPLETE AGREED SALES OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS AND ENHANCE THE OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE OF THE RESORTS # 2 COMPLETE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AMAN GOLF RESORT AND SELL ALL THE REMAINING FOUNDER AMAN VILLAS AT PLAYA GRANDE 3 # PROCEED WITH SECURING SENIOR BANK LOANS, EQUITY FINANCING AND FINAL PERMITS for the commencement of Amankea, Pearl Island’s second phase and Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Resort projects during 2015, which will result in Dolphin having five completed, operational and cashflow producing projects. # 4 ASSIST ARISTO’S MANAGEMENT IN INCREASING RETAIL SALES during the current challenging period and conclude the Venus Rock Golf Resort sale through the competitive process now underway, using the sales proceeds to reduce Aristo’s leverage and distribute dividends to Dolphin. # 5 ADVANCE THE ZONING AND PERMITTING OF DOLPHIN’S OTHER MAJOR PROJECTS enabling the Company to sell these assets – either partially or wholly – at a profit, or develop them and realise their full cash return potential.

Moreover, there are ongoing advanced discussions for the sale of additional villas at Amanzoe, which are expected to complete soon. •A further two Amanzoe Villas were added to Amanzoe’s rental programme in July 2014, bringing the total to four.

The mock up pavilion of the Aman Hotel was completed, reviewed and approved by Aman Resorts in June 2014. Completion and opening is expected in the third quarter of 2015. The renovation of the front nine holes of the Robert Trent Jones Snr. golf course is scheduled to commence shortly, following the recent completion of the full renovation of the back nine holes by Rees Jones. We anticipate that the completion of the entire golf course will coincide with the commencement of operations at the Aman Hotel. On 21 August 2014, Dolphin signed a non-binding term sheet with a US institutional investor for a proposed investment in Playa Grande through the issue of a six-year $30 million mezzanine debt facility to DCA Holdings 7 Ltd, the holding company of the Playa Grande project. Since the signing of this term sheet, the investor has been undertaking legal, financial and technical due diligence, and the parties are working towards the closing of the transaction, which is expected in October 2014, at which time further details will be announced. This funding will enable Dolphin to accelerate the completion of all complementary leisure facilities to the Aman Hotel (including the Aman beach club, golf clubhouse, spa, gym, tennis, kids’ club, hiking and equestrian trails), to cover all general project overhead costs and debt service until the project becomes cashflow positive without relying on further pre-sales, and to complete the design of the project’s Playa Navio phase (second phase).

The regional investor group that acquired the Founders’ Phase is advancing construction works and the first group of turn-key villas and condos is scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2014/ early 2015. Infrastructure works are progressing on schedule and various components of the Founders’ Phase peninsula such as the airport, beach club, service pier, marina and breakwater have been completed. The sale of lots and turn-key properties in the Founders’ Phase is progressing, with values reflecting the strong demand and limited supply of luxury residential opportunities in Panama. Dolphin remains in discussions with various strategic groups that have indicated an interest in investing and participating in one of the many development phases of the island, including the Ritz Carlton Reserve, the Marina Village and another luxury branded resort phase.

Both figures are in line with the performance over the corresponding period in 2013. 51% of the clientele originated from Russia and 40% from China. As indicated by the level of sales over the period, Aristo’s sales performance remains poor, putting a strain on the company’s cashflows. As a result, Aristo has prioritised its payments so as to ensure that its development programme continues on course, while it is making good progress in restructuring its bank obligations in a long term and sustainable way, which will benefit both the company’s shareholders and its lenders – since such obligations are fully secured against land mortgages exceeding the respective loan values. To that regard, Aristo has already agreed the restructuring of its loan obligations with all of its lenders, except one – its major lender – with whom the company is in advanced discussions to agree a significant deleveraging of the Aristo group through a project level debt-to-preferred-equity conversion, together with the re-profiling of the Aristo Group’s loan maturities and reductions in the interest rates incurred. In parallel, the company is taking action, both at the wholesale level (for example, by selling Venus Rock Golf Resort) as well as at the retail level by launching new projects to enhance the diversification of product offering and support its sales potential. In addition to the ongoing challenging market conditions, recent sales performance has been adversely affected by negative publicity relating to an investigation carried out by the authorities with regard to the subdivision of 177 land plots in a 160,000 m2 site owned by Aristo in the Paphos area. Mr. Aristodemou and his wife were detained for questioning in the context of this investigation. The size of the disputed green area is 2,730 m2 which, although not material, has drawn disproportional attention by the local investigators and media, due to the previous appointment of Mr. Aristodemou as the Chairman of Board of the Bank of Cyprus. The Aristo management is fully cooperating with the local authorities on all aspects of the investigation, and remains confident that its result will demonstrate that there has been no inappropriate action or intended omission by Aristo. Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Interim Review Period ended 30 June 2014 55 CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY SUPPORTING COMMUNITIES Corporate social responsibility (‘CSR’) is embedded in Dolphin’s culture. As such, Dolphin and its Investment Manager consider it their responsibility to mindfully coexist with, and support, the societies and environments where we invest. DOLPHIN CAPITAL FOUNDATION Dolphin Capital Foundation (‘DCF’) is a non-profit charitable entity set up on 12 December 2007, dedicated to helping the surrounding regional communities and the natural environments where Dolphin invests, by donating to various charitable endeavours. The pre-school programme of the Playa Grande Foundation in Abreu Dolphin Capital Investors Limited Interim Review Period ended 30 June 2014 56 CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY Supporting communities continued PEARL ISLAND The Pearl Island Foundation continues to invest in programmes designed to strengthen the local economic and social development of the Pearl Island community, in order to make a significant difference in the lives of the local population. The first half of 2014 was marked by several milestones: 1.Continued efforts to improve the standard of local education. Since the inception of the programme six years ago, the youth of the island have benefitted from a new curriculum and improved facilities. In 2014, the programme instituted a new Bachelor Degree in Tourism (grades 10th to 12th) and developed new pavilions for this new group of students. The programme has been designed and developed with the approval and oversight of Panama’s Ministry of Education. 2. Teaming up with INADEH (National Institute for Vocational Training and Human Development) to provide the community with basic training and marketable skills in vocations, like retailing skills and dress making, that will prepare the community for tourism and hospitality employment and provide a measure of independence and economic empowerment. 3. Enhancing the summer programme ‘Sunrise in Pedro Gonzalez’, which this year was planned and organised by a special committee integrated with people of the community under the supervision and direction of trained external counsellors retained by the Pearl Island Foundation. The summer experience is an opportunity for children to learn new skills and cultivate their sense of independence and self-reliance. Programme activities include adventure and scouting, arts and crafts, music development, and sports. 4. Improving access to basic services such as health, sanitation and clean water, which is a constant challenge with local population often unable to travel to hospitals for medical care. The Pearl Island Foundation continued to support a mobile healthcare programme in co-ordination with the Ministry of Health. The programme aims provide the population with access to healthcare and sanitation. 5. Completing significant investments in the infrastructure of the island to improve the sanitation and living standards of the community, such as 150 metres of pavements and a new water treatment plant to deliver potable water to the community. THE PLAYA GRANDE PROJECT The Playa Grande project, through the Playa Grande Foundation, continues developing programmes aimed at the sustainable development of the surrounding communities in its area of influence in the north coast of the Dominican Republic. Focus has been placed on the areas of education, sports, and culture, with the pursuit of the following key initiatives: 1. Funding a pre-school for over 30 local children in the town of Abreu. The Playa Grande Foundation continues to finance the pre-school programme and run it in partnership with the Dream Project Foundation. 2. Establishing a library, together with enhancing reading programmes, in the elementary public school of the town of Abreu. 3. Sponsoring community sports development programmes and local inter-school competitions in basketball and volleyball. 4. Sponsoring surfing competitions and an annual 10-k run for regional athletes. 5. Sponsoring and organising as a key committee member the Rio San Juan carnival, the main annual cultural event in the region, with its artisanal mask, costume and carnival troupe competitions. The Rio San Juan carnival has developed into a unique cultural event, with all participants integrating a marine theme to their costumes.
