     6.2 Location
     • A key factor in assessing retail parks as an investment opportunity is the location and related demographics.

     • There is a high correlation between sales in stores in retail parks and new house sales. A retail park with strong sales
       generally results in the ability to retain tenants, attract new tenants and set higher rent levels.

     • Navan town is the 5th largest town in Ireland with a population of in excess of 30,000 per the 2016 census.

     • Navan town has a strong growth dynamic with the population rising from 24,851 to 30,173 (21.4%) in the period
       2006-2016.

     • There is a significant pipeline of new housing developments in the greater Navan area. Current new housing
       developments which are anticipated include:

          - Three sites being developed by Glenveagh plc with potential for in excess of 1,000 units.

          - Lands held by Davy Hickey with potential for c.500 units.

          - Lands being developed by Granbrind with potential for c.300 units.

     • The growth rate of Navan’s population together with new house-building and favourable demographics make it an
       attractive retail park location.

     • The map below shows some of the development ongoing in the proximity of Navan town.

          Retail Park

     • Letting this unit will add rental income and reduce expenses (service charge). An additional tenant is also expected
       to bring increased customers to the retail park thereby increasing footfall.

     • Woodies DIY currently leases Unit 8 which is c.9k sqft, however the unit is vacant. There may be an opportunity to
       find an alternative tenant for this site. Again adding additional stores to the site is expected to increase footfall.

     • There are three upcoming breaks during the 5 year term (Right Price Tiles, PC World and Ben Dunne Gyms). There is
       an opportunity to work with tenants to ensure the position is optimised when these breaks are due.

     Food and Beverage Offering

     • There is currently planning permissions granted for a single storey coffee shop and a drive thru restaurant.

     • The opportunity to add food and beverage offerings to the site is expected to increase footfall and the overall
       performance of the retail park.

     • The drive thru site is in the process of being sold to Costa Coffee who are expected to develop the site. Note this
       site does not form part of what is being acquired.

     • There is also the opportunity to add a further food and beverage offering on the additional development site. The
       additional development site does form part of what is being acquired.

                                                                                                        Costa Coffee

                                                     Why Box Retail

          Bulky goods not as impacted by                       Longer dwell time in retail parks driven by better
                  online trends                               food and beverage offerings and more ‘open retail’

7.2 The Retail Market
• The retail sector has encountered a number of challenges in recent years including the impact of e-commerce.

• The retail warehouse sub-sector has been less affected due to the nature of goods being sold which are less suited
  to online business models. Goods sold in retail warehouses are generally bulky goods for example electronics,
  furniture, DIY related items and other household items.

• Retail warehouses tend to have better car parking and are generally on the outskirts of towns and cities, providing
  more convenient access. This can make them more attractive to consumers than traditional high street stores.

• The MSCI (IPD) rental series for 2018 show +6.5% year on year rental growth in the retail warehousing sub-index,
  compared with -1.7% year on year on Grafton St., -4.8% Henry St. and +1.5% retail overall.

• In addition, per CSO statistics, sales of goods typically sold in retail warehouses have performed comparatively well
  in 2018 with Furniture and Lighting +3.2%, Hardware Paints & Glass +5.0%, Electrical Goods +9.6% all outperforming
  the annual average change of 2.3%.

7.3 Drivers of Retail Performance
• A strong economic environment generally supports growth within the retail sector.

• The current outlook for the economy is positive with some key indicators below.

     • Another important consideration when looking at the outlook for retail sales, particularly in the retail warehouse
       category, is population growth and house building levels.

     • TWM Property Advisors have examined the correlation between the sales of household goods and a number of
       key economic drivers.

     • Household Goods: Correlation with key indicators
           Correlation Matrix                      Employment                              House Completions

     • For all four categories of goods, the correlation is strong with both the level of employment and house completions.

     • Therefore, house completions appear to have a strong influence on the performance of the retail warehousing
       market. Given this important link and the current focus of public policy on the housing sector, TWM have examined
       the recent level of house completions.

     • While the absolute housing numbers remain below the long-term requirement, they are now growing year on
       year, per the graph below.

          House Completions
          20,000
          18,000
                                                                  Increase of 150% in 3 Years

     • The current level of and growth in house completions suggests that demand for household goods will increase.
       This excludes additional demand generated by consumers upgrading or replacing equipment in existing houses
       and apartments, which is likely to increase as the general consumer economy indicators remain positive.

     • This presents a potential opportunity for investors in the retail warehousing sector, either through increased
       occupier demand or rent levels.

     • The combination of the expected increase in supply in the residential market combined with the general economic
       recovery points to increased demand for household goods. A rising population and falling household size is also
       expected to enhance the performance of retail parks.

Notes to Base Case Financial Projections

Note 1 Total Investment cost is c.€21.5m. In addition a placement fee of 2% is payable by the investor. A breakdown
       of this is provided in Section 5.

                                                                                                                                      PAGE 15

     Note 2 This is the total projected annual rental income from tenants. €1.2m of this rent is from Woodies DIY which is
            guaranteed by the Grafton Group plc.

              Note this income may vary depending on the outcome of letting vacant space (assumed 24 month void
              including rent free), rent reviews and tenant breaks (there are 3 tenant breaks during the period, it is assumed
              one will break).

     Note 3 Service charge is payable for vacant units. This totals €1.43 psqft (management charge and insurance cost). In
            addition, the landlord pays Ben Dunne Gym service charge under the terms of their lease.

     Note 4 Annual management fee comprises (i) 2% of annual rent payable to Lexeme Properties Limited as property
            advisor and (ii) 0.3% of the year end Net Asset Value ("NAV") of the Proposed Vehicle payable to Cantor as
            Investment Manager.

     Note 5 This relates to the 6% forecast annual investor distribution. Note this distribution is not guaranteed and depends
            on rent received from tenants and costs. The distribution is expected to be paid c.3 months post year end on
            finalisation of the financial statements and receipt of approval from the Board of the Proposed Vehicle.

     Note 6 This relates to annual costs of running the Proposed Vehicle. The primary costs are the fees paid to
            administration service providers to the Proposed Vehicle of €36,000 per annum and fees paid to the Alternative
            Investment Fund Manager (“AIFM”) of €50,000 per annum. Other Proposed Vehicle costs include valuation
            costs, audit costs and regulatory and compliance related costs.

     Note 7 Annual costs and contingency relate to property running costs including; any repairs carried out which are
            the responsibility of the landlord, letting agent’s fees, legal fees and any other ongoing property costs.

     Note 8 This is the forecast cash balance of the Proposed Vehicle. This may be distributed to investors earlier than the
            projected exit date.

     Note 9 Net proceeds to the client on exit are forecast at €22.9m which includes the sale proceeds from the property,
            any cash on account less the asset manager promote (20% of profits above a 6% IRR).

              It is assumed that the property will be sold after 5 years at a yield of 8% resulting in a sale price of €21.7m (see
              calculation below).

              Exit Price After Standard Purchaser Costs                                               9.96%            22,050,470
              Less Sale Costs                                                                         1.50%             (330,757)
              Net Sale Price                                                                                          21,719,713

             This compares to a purchase yield of 8.6%. This anticipated improvement in yield is forecast due to the
             following:

              - It is anticipated that the retail park will be improved due to the delivery of asset management initiatives
                including adding a food and beverage offering and letting vacant units. This is expected to lead to higher
                footfall and improvement in the overall quality of the retail park.

              - Improvement in sentiment towards investment in retail parks is anticipated due to continued strong
                performance compared to traditional retail.

              - It is expected that rent levels in the sector will continue to increase, increasing attractiveness for prospective
                purchasers.

Notes to Upside Financial Projections

Note 1       The total estimated rent under the upside scenario is higher than base case due to higher rental assumptions
             on rent reviews and new lettings. It is assumed that there will be a 12 month void for the vacant space
             (including rent free) as opposed to 24 months in the base case. It is assumed there will be no tenant breaks
             (compared to one in the base case).

                                                                                                                             PAGE 17

          Retail Park

     Note 2         The upside case assumes that asset management initiatives are completed in a shorter time period and that
                    the property is sold after 3 years.

                    An exit yield of 7.5% is assumed resulting in a net property sale price of €23.4m.

                    Similar to the base case scenario, yield compression is assumed due to the improvement in the footfall and
                    quality of the retail park and due to the improved sentiment towards the asset class.

                    It is assumed that higher rent levels and improved sentiment will occur at an earlier stage due to faster than
                    anticipated economic growth leading to the retail park being disposed of at an earlier stage.

                    The calculation of the projected exit price is outlined below.

     8.3 Downside Financial Projection and Illustrative Return

                         WARNING: These figures are estimates only. They are not a reliable guide to future performance.

     For the purposes of providing a downside scenario, we have assumed that all tenants exercise their breaks and tenants
     do not renew leases on expiry. These projections are outlined below with corresponding notes.

     The below table shows illustrative projected annual financial performance. The forecast distribution is not
     expected to be paid until approximately 3 months post year end pending finalisation of financial statements
     and approval from the Board of the Proposed Vehicle. The illustrative return in the second table shows the
     expected timing of the investor cashflows.

Notes to Downside Financial Projections

Note 1 The rental income projection assumes that only currently contracted rent is received with all tenants exercising
       their break clauses and no new lettings. It is assumed that the asset is held until the majority of the rental
       income stream has terminated in 2031 (12 years).

             Under this scenario the investor would receive c.60% of capital invested in the period to 2031 from the rental
             income for the property.

Note 2 It is assumed that all available cash after costs is distributed to investors annually.

Note 3 It is assumed that in a downside scenario, net proceeds of €10m would be realisable for the property on exit.
       This figure is viewed as achievable given the sites location, existing buildings and zoning.

             This example illustrates that even where it is assumed that all leases break and there is a material reduction in
             the property value the investor capital (through rental income and the sale of the property) would still be
             returned over the longer 12 year time horizon.

     10.1 Proposed Features
     Cantor Property Income Fund (“the Proposed Vehicle”)

     Fund Structure                         • It is expected that the Proposed Vehicle will be regulated by the Central Bank of
                                              Ireland as a QIAIF (Qualifying Investor Alternative Investment Fund)

     Qualifying Investors                   • The Proposed Vehicle will be open to Qualifying Investors. See section 13 for an
                                              explanation of Qualifying Investor.

                                            • In order to be classified as Qualifying Investors, investors must be professional
                                              investors or will need to complete the fund application form confirming that they
                                              have the requisite knowledge and experience to properly evaluate the merits and
                                              risks of the investment.

     Distribution                           • The Proposed Vehicle will have a target annual distribution of 6%.

     Anticipated Term                       • 5 Years.

     Anticipated Exit                       • Sale of the property or other re-financing event.

     Taxation                               • On the basis that it will be a QIAIF, the Proposed Vehicle would fall under the gross
                                              roll-up, exit tax regime.

                                            • Irish resident investors (who are not exempt, such as pension funds) will be subject
                                              to exit tax, which currently stands at a rate of 41% (or 25% for companies which have
                                              made an election), on all income and gains earned from the investment in the
                                              Proposed Vehicle, including income and gains arising from rental profits, capital gains
                                              and dividends.

                                            • Exit tax will apply to any fund distributions, any redemptions, and on each 8th
                                              anniversary deemed disposal event.

                                            • Exempt investors such as pension investors are not subject to exit tax liability,
                                              provided they make the relevant declaration to that effect to the Proposed Vehicle.

                                            • Foreign tax residents may be subject to a withholding tax of 20% on income and
                                              gains.

                                            • Further information will be outlined in the taxation section of the Proposed Vehicle’s
                                              prospectus.

                                            • The above information does not constitute tax advice and all investors should

     13. QUALIFYING INVESTOR

          a. An investor who is a professional client within the meaning of Annex II of Directive 2004/39/EC (Markets in
             Financial Instruments Directive) (“MiFID”);

     OR

                  others, the management, acquisition or disposal of property of the same kind as the property of the QIAIF.

     You will be asked to certify that you are a Qualifying Investor as part of the application form.

     14. RISK AND REGULATION
           There are a number of regulatory, operational and financial risks posed by the Investment. Any investment decision
                      should be made on the understanding that investors may lose some or all of their investment.

     If you are in any doubt about the contents of this Brochure you should seek your own personal financial advice
     immediately from your financial adviser, bank manager, accountant, solicitor, or other independent adviser authorised
     or exempted under the European Communities (Markets in Financial Instruments) Regulations 2017 or the Investment
     Intermediaries Act, 1995 who specialises in advising on the acquisition of shares and other securities.

     While the risk factors listed below do not purport to be an exhaustive list or a complete explanation of all the risks
     involved in the investment, the below list is a summary of some of the principal risks identified.

     Risks of Property Ownership
     The properties invested in may in certain market conditions be difficult or impossible to realise and, as there may not
     be an available market for them, it may not be possible to establish their current value at any particular time. The
     Proposed Vehicle will be subject to the general risks incidental to the ownership of property, including changes in
     general economic or local market conditions, changes in supply of or demand for competing properties, fluctuations
     in property yields, rental levels, the availability of debt financing, changes in property tax rates and credit risks of tenants
     and borrowers, uninsurable loss, environmental risks and other factors. The marketability and value of the properties
     owned by the Proposed Vehicle will, therefore, depend on many factors beyond the control of the Proposed Vehicle
     and the Investment Manager, and there can be no assurance that there will be either a ready market for properties of
     the Proposed Vehicle or that such properties will be sold at a profit. An investment in the Proposed Vehicle should be
     viewed by an investor as a long-term investment.

     Rental Income Risk
     Rental income is subject to market forces and may fall as well as rise. If a tenant vacates or fails to pay the rent, any new

PAGE 24
Blackwater
                                                                                                          Retail Park

lease with another tenant may, due to market conditions at that point in time, provide for a lower rental income. Where
a lease expires or a tenant exercises a break clause in a lease and agreement cannot be reached to extend or renew
the lease, the Investment Manager and/or the Property Advisor will endeavour to agree with a new tenant to let the
space. This may take some time and in the interim no income will be earned on the empty space. This may affect the
overall return on the Proposed Vehicle's Investment.

Tenant Concentration Risk
Woodies DIY is a key tenant in the Blackwater Retail Park property portfolio and contributes a large percentage of overall
portfolio rent. Where actual rental income received does not correspond with projected rental income, this could have
a substantial impact on the performance of the investment. There could also be a material adverse impact where (i)
the property is held until 2031 and Woodies DIY does not enter into a new lease or (ii) the Woodies DIY lease is re-
geared in 2031 on unfavorable lease terms.

Investor Distribution Risk
Where sufficient rental income is not received or where costs exceed expectations, there may not be sufficient income
available to make the target annual distribution to investors.

Cost of Vacant Units Risk
Where property units are vacant there will be certain associated costs including management charges, rates and
possible costs associated with maintaining/ refurbishing the property. This may affect the projected returns of the
Proposed Vehicle.

New Build Retail Parks Risk
Where new retail parks are built, this may result in lower demand for available space impacting rental levels and ability
to re-let units.

Property Liquidity Risk
The Proposed Vehicle will invest in the properties comprising Blackwater Retail Park, Navan, County Meath. An
Investment in property tends to be extremely illiquid in nature. Realising such Investments at the valuation determined
at the last valuation point may not be possible. An exit from an Investment in property by the Proposed Vehicle will be
dependent on market conditions and there is a risk that the market for the Proposed Vehicle's investments may not
support an opportunistic sale of the assets for some time. There may be an ability for investors to transfer units in the
Proposed Vehicle to another entity subject to the investor finding a willing buyer classified as a Qualifying Investor that
meets any other application requirements of the fund.

Property Valuation Risk
Holdings of property are inherently difficult to value due to the lack of marketability. Valuations are based on reports
received from an independent valuer who has formed a view as to the value of the property based on an individual
assessment. Although the independent valuer will determine the valuation in accordance with the property guidelines,
the interpretation of the property guidelines is subjective. As a result, estimates of valuation are subject to uncertainty
and hence there is no assurance that the estimates resulting from the valuation process will reflect the actual sale price
of the property valued, even where such sale occurs shortly after the valuation by the independent valuer.

Property Custody Risk
Investors should be aware that where the Proposed Vehicle invests in a Property, title to that Property will be held in
the name of the fund and not in the name of its custodian or its agent. Accordingly, title to properties will be held
outside the custody network and not subject to the same protections as applicable to financial instruments held in
custody by its custodian or by its sub-custodial agents in accordance with AIFMD.

                                                                                                                         PAGE 25
Blackwater
          Retail Park

     Rental income from the Proposed Vehicle's property investments may be received by property managers and other
     property agents and then passed or swept into the Proposed Vehicle's cash account within the control and/or oversight
     of the custodian. The Proposed Vehicle may however, provide the local property agents with a "float" for the purpose
     of discharging day-to-day expenses in relation to the Proposed Vehicle 's Property portfolio. Accordingly, investors
     should be aware that such monies (both rental income prior to its payment into the Proposed Vehicle's cash account
     within the custodian's custody network and also the "float" referred to above) will be held by such property managers
     and/or other property agents outside of the custody network in which case such monies are less well protected than
     if they were held by the Depositary or by its sub-custodial agents.

     Projections
     It is emphasised that projections of future results are inherently subject to risk of inaccuracy and there is no
     certainty that actual results will correspond with the illustrative financial tables. If the assumptions upon which the
     illustrative projections are based are incorrect for any reason, targets may not be achieved.

     Economic Environment
     A downturn in the general economic environment may have an impact on ability to meet projected rental figures and
     may impact the value of the investment.

     Tax and Regulatory Risk
     There is a risk that the tax or regulatory treatment of the Proposed Vehicle may change and that this may have an
     adverse impact on investors. There may also be unforeseen tax or regulatory liabilities payable by the Proposed Vehicle
     which may adversely impact performance.

     Investment Risk
     Prospective investors should be able to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Proposed Vehicle for an indefinite
     period and should be able to withstand a total loss of their investment.

     Legal Risk
     There may be legal issues with the property for example; not acquiring good and proper title, issues with the
     management company or planning permission issues. Such issues may have an impact on the investment returns
     realised by the investor or on the ability to sell the property.

     Keyperson Risk
     Eamonn Duignan as property advisor is a key individual in delivering the property asset management strategy. Due to
     some unforseen event, Eamonn may not be in a position to carry on the asset management of the property. This may
     affect the performance of the investment and the returns realised.

           On establishment of the fund, investors will be sent a copy of the Proposed Vehicle’s Prospectus, Supplement and Key
              Information Document which are the legal documentation detailing all of the key features of the fund and the
          responsibilities carried out by all parties involved in the operation and management of the fund. It is important that all
          investors carefully read the Prospectus, Supplement and Key Information Document on receipt of these documents as
                                             they outline the terms and features of the investment.
