SWILL COO [email protected] Carlton Europe I #3 Carlton Group Europe Executive Summary The Carlton Group Europe has been in business since 1991 and we have closed well over $100 billion of equity, debt and investment sale transactions on behalf of large property owners and institutional clients for their most important transactions. We specialize in customizing and executing highly-sophisticated equity and debt capital solutions either through a multi-tranche equity and debt capital placement or through some type of structured sale transaction. We are one of the top strategic capital advisors in the world and have executed some of the largest equity and debt recapitalizations and investment sales in Europe. Our real estate capital markets advisory practice is run by Carlton Chairman Howard L. Michaels, Javier Beltran - Head of Iberia -, Mads Loewe who runs our London office and Anthony Marando who runs our business in Italy. In addition, Kevin Swill runs our business in Israel, Andrew Karaan covers the MENA region, Nick Chen and three other senior associates cover Asia, and Anastasios Tzavellas runs our overseas office in Athens, Greece. Overall, the European team is assisted by over 50 capital market professionals in the United States, Europe and the Middle East. The Carlton platform is unique in that our core competence is arranging highly structured equity and debt capital from balance sheet and “off the radar” investors. For the last 26 years, we have developed deep relationships with private sources of capital throughout the world including ultra-high net worth investors, family offices, pension funds, multi-strategy funds, insurance companies and other balance sheet investors. Our specialty is raising capital on large, complex transactions which often need to be executed within a short timeframe. For instance, we recently closed a $1 billion luxury condominium land development transaction arranging and coordinating six different lenders and investors to participate in the capital stack. In 2015, Carlton Group Europe acted as exclusive advisor on the sale of logistic-industrial assets and office headquarters (GLA of 32,000sqm) of a Spanish multinational company and we currently have €200 million five-star hotel in Italy under contract. In 2014, we sold the Centro Nuevo Parking Garage, the largest car park in Valencia (Spain) exceeding 2,650 parking spaces, which has been one of the largest private off-street car park disposals in the last two decades in Spain. We also successfully closed the sale of a residential condominium in Barcelona and we also closed capital a €140 million acquisition and recapitalization of a large residential portfolio located in the UK. We are presently organizing a €350 million financing and recapitalization of a large residential property in Naples, Italy and have six other European exclusives for over €1 billion in value. We also closed a €250 million recapitalization of the Four Season in Milan during the low point of the European credit crunch. In sum, Carlton is dedicated to providing our clients with the 24/7 work ethic with the goal to generate the best possible service and terms for our clients. Stated simply, we can structure or capitalize any transaction which makes sense. CLICK TO VIEW: CARLTON GROUP EUROPE Carlton Europe I #4 The Carlton European Division We have completed over $10 billion of Structured Finance and Investment Sales transactions within the last 24 months We also closed, at the low point of the credit crunch, the largest single asset trade in Europe, which was the €250 million discounted loan payoff and recapitalization at the Four Seasons hotel in Milan. This was a noteworthy transaction because: We were able to access a large amount of balance sheet capital when most investors were not deploying capital. The terms for our client were very beneficial and allowed our client to maintain full ownership of this iconic property with no dilution. This transaction was also concluded with a modest discount of the pay-off of the existing lender, which facilitated the transaction. As indicated herein, we have access to billions of dollars of balance sheet capital which can facilitate transactions that ordinarily may not be able to be completed.

Unlike other advisory or brokerage firms, we are strictly a capital raising advisory firm and do not have other brokerage business lines. We only focus on raising equity or debt capital for our clients as it is our expertise and gives us our niche in the business.
