a. Real Estate Market Overview • U.S. Commercial Real Estate Market • Why Invest Now? • How to Succeed In Today’s Competitive Market • Investment Strategy • Conclusion 64
U.S. Commercial Real Estate Market: Overview Market Overview  Improving real estate fundamentals in most markets • Increased demand and a reduction in sublease availability have led to the stabilization of net effective rents (asking rents plus concessions) and vacancies • Lack of overbuilding in major markets has supported market fundamentals and should provide opportunities for long-term investors  The U.S. economy continues to show clear signs of improvement with declining unemployment, 2010 GDP growth of 2.8% and 2011 GDP growth forecasted at 3.2%- 3.6%  Investment activity is increasing, particularly in the 6 major CBD markets (New York, Washington D.C., Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles)  Excellent opportunities exist in larger second-tier cities and satellite markets due to investor focus on the 6 major CBD markets  Competitive debt financing is once again available for quality properties 65

Why Invest Now?: Summary Falcon believes this is an historic opportunity to purchase high-quality properties at attractive prices and yields Current Favorable Market Characteristics for Buyers: 1. Market Fundamentals 2. Unique Timing 3. Growing Economy 68
Why Invest Now?: Market Fundamentals Market Fundamentals Are Improving in Most Markets  Vacancy rates and net effective rents have bottomed out in many markets • Three consecutive quarters of positive net absorption have been recorded on a national basis • Rental rates in some core CBD markets such as Washington D.C., New York, San Francisco, and Boston are starting to increase • Landlord concessions have stabilized and are declining in some markets • As corporate demand begins to return, rental rates should increase more broadly  Most markets are not suffering from the overbuilding that plagued past downturns • Limited new construction is expected over the next 3-4 years • Major markets are generally facing vacancy rates of 10-20%  The economy, which is a leading indicator for the real estate market, is recovering slowly but steadily 69

Why Invest Now?: Unique Timing Unique Opportunity To Invest As The U.S. Market Recovers  There is currently an opportunity to acquire quality properties at an attractive basis relative to historical pricing benchmarks  Potential for capital appreciation due to expectations of future rental rate growth  Real estate investments have traditionally been an effective hedge against inflation  International investors are targeting the U.S. real estate market • According to an AFIRE survey, foreign investors believe the U.S. offers the best market for capital appreciation • AFIRE’s 2010 survey ranks New York and Washington, D.C. ahead of London and Paris • International investors view the U.S. as a stable market in times of economic or political uncertainty  Foreign buyers have dominated recent acquisition activity in the major cities • Falcon began in 1991 during a real estate crisis and advised foreign investors to take advantage of discounted prices resulting from that crisis Source: University of Wisconsin School of Business James A. Graaskamp Center for Real Estate, Association of Foreign Investors in Real Estate (AFIRE) 71
Why Invest Now?: The Economy is Growing Recent Economic Indicators Suggest That The U.S. Economy Has Been Showing Steady Improvement  GDP has grown for 6 consecutive quarters led by increased U.S. consumer spending  The S&P 500 has nearly doubled from the lows reached in March 2009  The unemployment rate has fallen to 9.0% from a high of 10.1% in November 2009  The banking sector has regained strength after surviving the recent crisis  Housing prices appear to have bottomed out in many areas of the country  The federal government’s economic stimulus has contributed to improved consumer sentiment 72
How to Succeed in Today’s Competitive Market Acquiring Properties In the Major Cities Is Very Competitive  Established credibility and a track record with sellers and brokers is crucial to winning a bidding process • Buyers are selected based on price, reputation, and ability to close in a timely manner  Falcon has forged a 20+ year relationship with the brokerage community  Falcon’s successful track record advising investors is widely known  Investors need to make rapid decisions during a bidding process • Timely internal approval process and open communication with Falcon • Important to rely on Falcon’s expertise during the acquisition process  Rapid analysis of a large amount of information  Determination of appropriate pricing and bidding strategy  Financial, tax, and legal structuring  Coordination of due diligence  Buyers of trophy properties in major cities may need to conduct upfront due diligence to increase their odds of winning a bidding contest 73
Investment Strategy: Offices  Focus on Class A Single and Multi-Tenant Office • Offers attractive risk-adjusted returns and long-term stability • Highest potential for appreciation with additional value enhancement through Falcon’s Asset Management expertise • JV partnerships with major operators are a method to access quality properties • Tenancy  Investment grade single-tenants with long-term leases in critical use properties and contractual rent escalations  Multi-tenant with dispersed lease expirations and diversified tenant base • Location  Central Business District locations in cities with growing population, a relatively strong economy and transportation links  Satellite locations with growing nearby population centers and expanding local economy with high concentration of office buildings and barriers to new construction 74
Retail, Apartments, Logistics, MOB  Retail  Focus on high-traffic in-fill locations with high income, high land costs, and restrictive planning controls  Neighborhood and community centers with recession-resistant anchor tenants and minimal in-line shop space  Select high-end retail within top markets  Rental Apartments  Well-located rental apartments are particularly attractive  Collapse of housing and condo markets has led to rising rents and occupancy rates for apartments  Few rental apartments built in recent years due to emphasis on condominiums  Higher availability of financing  Logistics  Located in distribution hubs (e.g. rail, airports, seaports)  Modern and flexible design  Single or multi-tenant  Medical Office Buildings  Long-term leases to investment grade hospitals in a sector with strong demand 75

Investment Strategy: U.S. Office Markets Chicago, Illinois Overview  Second largest office market in the U.S.  Location at the center of the U.S. makes it a key transportation and distribution hub  Home to the largest concentration of corporate headquarters in the U.S., including sixty-seven Fortune 500 companies Investment Rationale/Opportunities  Low amount of new development with some speculative properties nearing delivery  Higher capitalization rates present opportunities  Solid corporate tenant roster and location is favorable for future demand growth 77
Investment Strategy: U.S. Office Markets Los Angeles County, California (excluding downtown) Overview  Fifth largest office market in the U.S. and most populous county in the U.S.  Headquarters for seventeen Fortune 500 companies  Just about every industry sector is a major contributor to the economy  Recession resulted in increased unemployment Investment Rationale/Opportunities  Limited speculative development  With the employment picture beginning to improve, tenant activity should increase, providing stability to investors  Historically stable office market should become more attractive as the economy continues to improve, providing upside to new investors 78
Investment Strategy: U.S. Office Markets San Francisco, California Overview  Fifth largest metropolitan area in the U.S.  Diverse range of industries including technology, biotechnology, and finance  Headquarters for many of the world’s leading technology companies (i.e. Google, Yahoo!, Cisco) and one of the largest oil companies, Chevron  Unemployment rate below the national and state of California average Investment Rationale/Opportunities  Low amount of speculative development  High-growth technology companies provide future upside 79

Overview  Area is home to the U.S. Federal government  Fourth largest metropolitan in the U.S. and highest median household income  Diverse range of industries including government, defense, travel, and education  Unemployment rate below the national average due in large part to the stability provided by the U.S. government Investment Rationale/Opportunities  Relatively more stable market fundamentals  Attractive destination for domestic and foreign capital 80
Investment Strategy: U.S. Office Markets Atlanta, Georgia Overview  9th largest population center in the U.S., referred to as “Capital of the South”  Home to 22 Fortune 1000 companies including Coca-Cola, Home Depot, AT&T, and CNN  Significant population and employment growth over the past decade  Speculative properties scheduled for delivery in the next two years Investment Rationale/Opportunities  Institutional buyers may pass over the market in favor of larger markets, creating pricing opportunities  Focus on properties with longer-term leases 81
Investment Strategy: U.S. Office Markets Miami, Florida Overview  International city serving as the headquarters of Latin American operations for numerous multinational corporations, especially banking institutions and television headquarters  The Port of Miami is one of the largest U.S. cargo ports and also services a huge cruise ship industry  Economy has been adversely impacted by the housing downturn  Unemployment above the national average Investment Rationale/Opportunities  Relatively low contraction in rental rates and increase in vacancies  Demand from European and South American investors should support future prices  Suburban markets, such as Coral Gables, with development constraints, are particularly attractive  New properties with solid tenant rosters 82
Investment Strategy: U.S. Office Markets Northern New Jersey (suburban New York) Overview  Sixth largest office market in the U.S. and 18th largest economy in the world  State with the third highest number of corporate headquarters in the U.S. (54 Fortune 500 companies)  Key industries include pharmaceuticals, telecommunications, insurance, and finance  Recession impacted tenants in the finance, insurance, and real estate sectors Investment Rationale/Opportunities  Serves as a back office area for Wall Street, benefiting from corporations’ paring back more expensive space in New York  Larger corporate submarkets have fared particularly well and present opportunities  Reduction in property prices and lack of new development is positive  Sale and leaseback opportunities may arise as corporations seek to monetize their portfolio of real estate holdings 83
Investment Strategy: U.S. Office Markets Seattle, Washington Overview  Major port city with relative proximity to Japan and China  Headquarters for companies including Microsoft, Starbucks, Amazon, and Costco  Rapidly growing population during the last two decades  Significant amount of speculative properties under construction Investment Rationale/Opportunities  One of the highest historical rates of job growth  Diverse economic base  Highly educated workforce  Migration of employers to more dense districts favors investment downtown 84
Conclusion Now is an Ideal Time to Invest in U.S. Commercial Real Estate:  The economy has been growing for the last 6 quarters  U.S. real estate market fundamentals have stabilized • Vacancy rates have bottomed out in most markets • Net effective rental rates are stabilizing in most markets and are poised for future growth • New construction is limited  Pricing today is below replacement cost • Potential for value appreciation when the market returns to equilibrium  Recovery in credit markets has begun  Excellent buying opportunities are surfacing today for long-term investors 85

  • 65. U.S. Commercial Real Estate Market: Overview Market Overview  Improving real estate fundamentals in most markets • Increased demand and a reduction in sublease availability have led to the stabilization of net effective rents (asking rents plus concessions) and vacancies • Lack of overbuilding in major markets has supported market fundamentals and should provide opportunities for long-term investors  The U.S. economy continues to show clear signs of improvement with declining unemployment, 2010 GDP growth of 2.8% and 2011 GDP growth forecasted at 3.2%- 3.6%  Investment activity is increasing, particularly in the 6 major CBD markets (New York, Washington D.C., Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles)  Excellent opportunities exist in larger second-tier cities and satellite markets due to investor focus on the 6 major CBD markets  Competitive debt financing is once again available for quality properties 65

Editor's Notes

  • #3: You introduce Falcon first and then yourself
  • #8: Given that only 10% of all Commercial Real Estate is listed globally, the Private Equity industry with its on-going evolution is the perfect think-tank for the Commercial Real Estate world. Sophisticated leverage techniques developed either for buyouts or for venture capital in the industry inspire the Real Estate world from initial leverage, to hedging techniques to exit strategies, as both share a core intrinsic attribute: a lack of liquidity, tempered by an absence of volatility , but that still has to be offset by double digit IRR projections to attract investors.
  • #10: We said earlier that the Commercial Real Estate market can be segmented into four main compartments: Public versus Private and Debt versus Equity. Here is a simple chart that attempt to position each of the four categories in a risk/reward perspective. Given that the debt, whether private or public offers the least degree of both risk and reward we will solely discuss the Public versus the Private Equity Commercial Real Estate investments during the rest of the presentation. It was still important to mention this positioning exercise of equity versus debt at this stage of the presentation to ensure we cover as much of an overview as we can during our 30 minutes together.
  • #15: Given that the market value of listed real estate is so low in comparison to its non-listed cousin, it can be hard to distinguish between the two when statistics deal with combined real estate as seen in the previous slide. This slide will help us get a feel when comparing listed with non listed Real Estate. In the United States listed REITs have been around for about 50 years, so there is ample statistics available. The listed REITs in the US, whether equity REITs, debt REITs or Hybrid REITs, whether sector specific, region specific or diversified, in the US are compiled in an index called the NAREIT. The NAREIT on average is leveraged 50%. At the other end of the spectrum, the NCREIF index capitalizes the value of over 5,000 investment properties across the US for about $ 250 billion. The NAREIT reports its figure on an unleveraged basis. As we would expect the leveraged index delivers its share of higher positive returns but also sharp losses such as in 1998. This slides demonstrates that there is “Real Estate” and “Real Estate” alone in terms of expected returns
  • #23: Before going into the Global Real Estate Market it is helpful to remind ourselves that there is a disconnect between the real economy and the financial markets, just as there can be a disconnect between the NAV of a REIT and the value of its underlying Real Estate assets. Warren Buffet in 2003 famously called the derivative markets the “Financial weapons of mass destructions”. Without even looking at the derivatives markets the Global GDP amounts to about $ 60 trillion while the traditional financial markets: money market, bonds and stocks are worth three times the amount. While we all appreciate the benefits of the financial markets, such as the broader access to capital from borrowers, or more efficient pricing etc. lately the securitization frenzy that led to excess leverage have exposed the entire financial system.
  • #24: To put the real economy/financial market ratio into perspective, in 1990, according to a study done by McKinsey only 33 countries had a domestic market capitalization greater than their GDP against 72 in 2006. We all expect the trend to continue – which partially explains the reason why some prestigious Universities such as Harvard Endowment allocates 31% of its assets to “Hard assets” or why “sovereign funds” have over 70% in “hard assets”. Maybe the better part of the “Real Estate” market is in fact the word “Real”?
  • #26: Here is an interesting pie chart that shows the current listed Real Estate securities are mostly to be found in the more mature economies, with the US accounting for half, Europe for a quarter and Japan for 10% totaling 80%. Having said that not all listed Real Estate can access cross border deals – for instance it is only in 2008 that J-REITs, Japanese REITs will be allowed to buy non Japanese Real Estate. But who are the most active investors in the REITs?
  • #27: Another significant new trend in the world is the globalization of the real estate market. In the first half of 2007 alone over $ 115 bn worth of commercial real estate transactions were done between the Americas, Europe, the Middle-East and Asia.
  • #28: Why do investors increasinglybother to go to other continents to invest in Privately held Real Estate with all the legal, tax, language complexity that such decisions entail? While few global statistics exist on the privately held commercial real estate track record, datas can be found in the listed REITs as shown here. These statistics were compiled by Morgan Stanley and show that between 1993 and 2006 investing in inter-regional real estate markets could have been rewarding. On the other hand risk adjusted return in Asia for instance in this period was particularly unattractive
  • #29: In a similar fashion using correlation coefficient from real estate listed securities was key in optimizing efficient frontier models, beyond the domestic models we saw in the first part of the presentation. Every serious Institutional Investor today – allocate funds globally for the very reason of optimizing the efficient frontier – and Real Estate cross-border investments, unless we face a global pandemic or a World War III is only going to accelerate.
  • #32: A third interesting trend is that will change the nature of Privately Held Real Estate funds in an increasingly global real estate market is the Luxembourg financial center. While listed securities such as REITs benefit from the market capitalization of the NYSE-Euronext, the Tokyo Stock Exchange or the London Stock Exchange, Privately-held real estate especially when structured in Private Equity fund are registered in Luxembourg. Luxembourg as you know is the second largest financial center in the world after the US for Mutual Funds. It totaled almost $ 2 trillion in market capitalization in 2007
  • #33: Against this unique fund financial center backdrop, Real Estate funds have grown as well for the following reasons.Strong yet flexible RegulationCheaper for Fund Managers than the USReputation of locationCentre of sophisticated real estate investment fundsGlobal promoter baseGlobal investor baseTax efficiency and stability
  • #35: The Reasons why the SIF is so popular is that it benefits from the ideal fund criteria – which are (read the text in red)
  • #36: At Falcon we tested for one of our real estate fund and this was our experience. Maybe you want to talk about the umbrella concept, the leverage, the share classes, the dual currency registration and that is fitted for a Private Equity Real Estate Fund
  • #37: In a nutshell the SIF is lightly regulated and ideal for diversified Real Estate funds involving several countriesa tax efficient vehicle, as Luxembourg has a growing list of countries signing double tax treaties simple and fast to incorporate giving fund manager additional flexibility to seize opportunities
  • #38: And finally the SIF is increasingly accepted by the Pension fund communities throughout the world for the reasons cited earlier as well as for the “pool facilities” that Luxembourg custodian provide. This chart shows the so-called “Pension Pooling” .
