1 Stoneleigh Village Development and Business Report for Bridge Loan April The following report provides a detailed information pack on Stoneleigh Village that was purchased December 2012 having been a stalled development that was left undeveloped while funded by Coutts and Co. The site history was originally an MOD site that was developed as a cottage Holiday destination with substantial facilities that included a Leisure pool, small gym and bar/restaurant. The Stoneleigh site is a prime location positioned next to Sidmouth in Devon set over 11 acres of land that overlook the Sea. This is an AOB (Area of outstanding Beauty) also world Heritage Coastline. The Site facilities were closed in There are 58 Cottages on site a mixture of 2 and 3 bed cottages. The 58 cottages were a mix of 38 leased and 19 estate cottages of which 12 had been completely extended, completely refurbished new windows, doors, electrics, kitchen, bathroom, patio, lounge and flooring. Permitted development was granted allowing all properties to be refurbished. The 17 new build planning was awaiting completion and the facilities needed to be extended to deliver a large gym, pool improved, cafe, restaurant and bar. The site properties varied from older style properties marketed for 70k to 100k to the newly refurbished cottages that were being marketed for 200,000, these are all brick built properties. The property use is for all year round holiday use and 365 year rental.

SALES advanced throughout 2013/14 and the demand for Stoneleigh Village cottages increased as did the model for an investment cottage based on the 199 year lease also LOCA management to provide a rental support and return. MIDAS, WHITEFOORDS LLP and an additional agent REW advanced all sales to the point that several properties completed between the months of July 2013 to December COTTAGE SALES TYPES PRICE FURNITURE Land registry 74 SOLD 2 bed 200, yes 55 SOLD 2 bed 200, , yes 48 SOLD 2 bed 200, , yes 46 SOLD 2 bed 200, , yes 50 SOLD 2 bed 200, , yes 56 SOLD 2 bed 200, , yes 69 SOLD 2 bed 200, , yes 70 SOLD 2 bed 200, , yes 17 SOLD/ bed 188, yes 72 SOLD /2015 new build 250, yes PROPERTIES SOLD ,038, , ,114, The sales above have demonstrated several key points:- 1. THE PAST COTTAGE SALES on Stoneleigh for a prime two bed are worth 235k initially without the site being completed in terms of the facility block and landscaping. An old valuation by alder king advised that an uplift of 15% to 25% would apply to all cottages when complete. The property values would increase to 275k a standard two bed to 300,000 new build. 2. NEW BUILD there is 17 new build cottages that have a value of 250,000 to 325,000 for larger two and three bed cottages. The sale of 72 showed that people will now buy off plan the buyer received a discount but paid the full 250,000 to SIB / LOCA ventures. The New builds are now advancing as there are reserves taken for three all at 250,000. LOCA / SIB will retain ownership of the remaining new builds as the purpose of sales was to invest in the site through sales of estate cottages and purchase of the older style cottages that were much smaller than the estate existing two beds. 7

8 New build plans that are being delivered from May 2015 to December These properties are all prime properties based on the size and additional bathrooms. 17 New Build properties will advance Stoneleigh to 75 cottages. The presale demand is high based on full page advertisements that were placed in the telegraph, times and express. The presales offer is based on agreements prepared by SIB / LOCA for off plan sales Pickering and Stoneleigh provide modern cottages and Villas that all utilise the best renewable energies. 3. OLDER STYLE PROPERTIES The Challenge for LOCA / SIB was to transform older style smaller cottages that are mainly leased on 99 year leases that stand at 75 years in some cases. Some of these properties are marketed for sale by local agents at 70 to 80k. They are smaller and have limited living space compared to the larger existing two bed cottages. LOCA estate had a few older style cottages 17, 18, 27 and 28 these we decided to completely redesign to create the right size and extension at the same time staying within the permitted development approval. In January 2015 we commenced work and completed stripped out all interiors and extended to the front to create a larger living space and patio. The result has been incredible both 17 and 18 nearing completion have now both sold for 188,500. They have great views but the values are clear and confirmed. We are now progressing 27 and 28 and interest has advanced for viewing for the following two weeks. The success of completing the improved extension has now allowed LOCA to advance with a buy back of older properties and sales based on demand from the market. 8
