2. About the Properties

2.1 Why Daycare
The Early Childhood Education (ECE) market is a significant and growing business sector. This
is largely driven by changes in our population, demographics and the way we live and work.
Two working parents in a family unit and many solo parent households, have made childcare
an integral part of modern family life. Parents’ expectations of education and the standards of
facilities available, typically ensure quality premises and good business practices.

Since 2008, the proportion of children enrolled in ECE has risen from 93.6% to 96.6%. Time spent
in ECE has increased from 13.5 hours to 21.7 hours a week. Public funding for the sector is generally
reliable and secure. The government committed an additional $396.9 million in the 2018 budget
to fund the ECE care for an extra 14,000 children by 2019/2020, with a stated objective of 98% of
children attending ECE.

Population growth is also a key factor in the ECE market. There are 4,596 providers of ECE
services in New Zealand today and this has been growing at an average rate of 152 daycare centres
per annum, mirroring the growth in population. As population increases, so too does the demand
for Daycare centres. Recent sales of Daycare properties have been strong.

In our opinion the ECE property sector is regarded as a secure property asset class, due in part
to the Ministry of Education (MOE) childcare registration being linked to a Daycare property.
In addition, landlords are favourable to this business sector and typically offer long term lease
profiles. The value of a childcare business is closely linked to the physical property it operates
from. The resource consent for childcare use and the MOE registration is included in the valuations
of the Daycare properties.

Building obsolescence in Daycare centre properties is low and minimal. Most ECE businesses
operate from the same premises long term.

Daycare is a growth market. Population growth, dual income families and strong legislation around
childcare are all contributors. In particular, Auckland has had a significant growth in the number of
Daycare centres in recent years due to demand outstripping supply.

2.2 Silverdale
Silverdale is a town approximately 30km north of Auckland. State Highway 1 passes to the west
of Silverdale via the Northern Motorway.

Due to its proximity to Auckland and main arterial routes, Silverdale is growing in demand
residentially and the 2013 Census* reported a 231.5% increase in population since the 2006 Census.
Population has been rising ever since.

The operator owns and runs 5 Daycare centres under the Learning Tree brand, four of which are
in Auckland. The other locations are in Albany, Westgate, and Hobsonville. The operator has been
in the industry for over 8 years and the Silverdale property also has offices on the second floor
which are used as the Learning Tree head office.

*At time of publishing information from the 2018 Census results were unavailable in composition form.

++ Property Manager Fees - The Property Manager
   may increase its fees over the life of the Limited
   Partnership. Note under the lease arrangements
   these costs are payable directly by the tenant.

++ Transfer of Interests - While Interests in the LP are
   transferable, a buyer of such Interests may not be
   found and investors may not be able to realise their
   investments in the Limited Partnership before the
   Properties are sold.

++ Forecasts - Actual results are likely to be different to
   the forecasts since anticipated events frequently do
   not occur as expected and the variation may be
    significant and material. No warranty or
   representation is made in respect of whether the
   revenue, expenses, or any capital appreciation in
   the future will be achieved. Prospective investors
   should obtain their own independent valuation, legal,
   accounting and income tax advice in respect to their
   own individual circumstances.

++ On settlement a $50,000 initial maintenance sinking
   fund will be created for unexpected maintenance
   or other costs. Included within the annual
   projected profit and loss account is also a $15,000
   maintenance sinking fund contribution allowance.
   These amounts could be used to pay in part or in full
   any amounts relating to the risks identified above.

++ The New Zealand Government currently provides
   substantial subsidies to the Early Childcare
   Education (ECE) industry, including the ECE
   Childcare Subsidy and 20 Hours ECE Subsidy. The
   subsidies are paid by the Government directly to
   the ECE centres on behalf of parents who enrol their
   children at the ECE. This results in a guaranteed
   level of income for the Fund which have leasing
   arrangements with the ECEs set out in this IM.
   While the Manager is not aware of any proposals by
   the Government to change its funding policies, it
   could be changed by the Government at any time
   or the Government could change the regulations
   that ECE providers need to comply with in order
   to obtain subsidies. This may affect the profitability
   of the particular ECE centre or the ECE industry
   generally. If a ECE centre provider is unable to
   maintain a certain level of revenue after changes
   to the subsidies, this may mean the ECE centre may
   default on its obligations and could even possibly
   cease to operate if the business is not commercially
   viable.

4. Why Property Syndication?
   Structure and Background

4.1 What is a Property Syndication?
A property syndication is a group of investors who are pooled together to purchase one or more
properties. Property syndication offers you the opportunity to invest in property assets and own
a stake in the Property. Investors subsequently receive a proportionate share of any net rental
income via distributions made by the syndicate.

4.2 What are the Advantages of an E+O Syndication?
++ Opportunity to gain access to the property market when you may currently be unable
   to invest otherwise.

++ Exposure to the property market with sensible leverage.

++ Access to potentially higher value commercial and industrial property.

++ No recourse funding; the bank does not require personal guarantees and has recourse
   only to the Property.

++ Leverage E+O’s considerable property buying and negotiating experience.

++ A fully managed asset with all property management, financial and administrative
   matters taken care of.

4.3 Syndicate Structure
++ Limited partnerships are a common business and investment vehicle used in many
   western countries and are internationally recognised.

++ Limited partnerships were introduced to New Zealand under the Limited Partnerships
   Act 2008.

++ Investors have interests in the assets of a Limited Partnership by becoming a limited
   partner pursuant to a limited partnership agreement.

++ A limited partnership is made up of the general partner and limited partners. The general
   partner runs the limited partnership on the behalf of the limited partners.

++ Limited partners cannot take over or interfere with the running of the limited partnership.
   Doing so puts any such limited partner at risk of losing its limited status.

++ Limited partners are only liable to the extent of their capital contributions. This is on the
   proviso that they do not take part in the management of the limited partnership.
