Rougemont Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Ref No. 516918 August 2013 Important Legal Notice This document describes an investment in a syndicated commercial property that is partially funded with bank finance. An investment of this nature involves risk; it is illiquid in nature and may not be suitable for many investors. Investors must be prepared to bear the risk of any investment in the property, for an indefinite period, and be able to withstand the loss of all or part of their investment. All reasonable care has been taken to ensure the information and illustrations contained within this document are true and accurate, but they should not be construed as advice on which reliance should be placed. Please refer to the Risk Factors and assumptions upon which the Target Annual Returns in this document have been based. How Syndicated Property Works A syndicated commercial property investment is one where a number of private individuals, corporate entities, or pension funds collectively pool their capital to acquire a specific tenanted commercial property. Syndicate members own a percentage of the legal beneficial interest in the property pro-rata to the amount of their investment. In return members receive their share of the rental income and future capital growth. Rougemont’s operating structure has received approval from a number of major SIPP and SSAS Pension Trustee/Administrators; however, investors should contact their own pension fund advisors to ascertain whether such an investment is permissible within the rules of their own pension fund. FCA authorised Independent Financial Advisors should be aware that Rougemont is an Exempt CAD firm to which MIFID applies, except that it can receive and transmit orders in relation to one or more financial instruments, or in relation to investment advice. Accordingly, Rougemont is permitted to transmit orders with Non-MIFID Independent Financial Advisors and Professional bodies. As with any investment, syndicated property of this type carries the risk that the investment may fail to increase in value or may depreciate. Rental returns may not materialise. Your attention is drawn to the Important Legal Notice in this document and the need to take independent legal and investment advice. In summary the arrangements are as follows: 1. Properties are normally office, retail or factory premises let to a tenant with a good covenant strength on a long term lease. 2. An Independent Professional Custodian Trustee will hold the legal freehold/leasehold title to the property as Custodian Trustee. Syndicate members become beneficial owners of the property, as tenants in common, in direct proportion to their investment. 3. Syndicate members are entitled to receive their pro-rata rental income from the property together with their share of the capital receipt upon a sale of the Property. 4. A full legal pack containing a detailed Structure Note, a Syndicate Contract, Trust Deed and a Property Administration Agreement will be provided once a potential Syndicate member has made a formal reservation by completing the form at the back of this document. Any other relevant material will be available upon request. Potential Syndicate members must then arrange to receive advice from other independent advisors as necessary. 5. Acquisition of the property will take place only when sufficient Syndicate members have provided monies to fund the acquisition. Should insufficient funds be received the acquisition will not progress and any funds received will be returned immediately to Syndicate members. 6. An ‘Initial Period’ is set by Rougemont at the outset and in this instance the Initial Period will run from the Completion Date until its fifth anniversary (See No. 8). 7. Rougemont is the appointed Managing Trustee and will co-ordinate the purchase and handle routine decisions in relation to the property. The Syndicate members will retain control of major decisions such as, providing consent to assign leases or deciding to carry out structural alterations to the property. These decisions will be taken by a majority representing 75% (by value) of the Syndicate Price. Syndicate members will also employ a management company, Harlow Property Management Limited, to carry out services such as collection and distribution of rent and the provision of caretaking duties. However, if the Syndicate members collectively decide to instruct Harlow Property Management Limited to provide any non-core services then additional remuneration will be payable in respect of such services. Prior to the expiry of the Initial Period Harlow Property Management Limited will provide a quote for a continuation of its services. 8. An individual Syndicate member may sell their stake at any time. The Syndicate members may decide by a majority to sell the property at any time. However, an individual Syndicate member cannot force a sale of the whole of the property until the expiry of the Initial Period and must have attempted to sell their individual stake before making such a request. However, if a Syndicate member, being a pension fund, has beneficiaries who die during the Initial Period forcing the pension fund to be liquidated then the trustees of the pension fund have the right to force a sale of the property within 24 months of the death of the member in the event that the member’s interest in the property remained unsold. Investor Eligibility All syndicated commercial property investment opportunities promoted by Rougemont constitute an Unregulated Collective Investment Scheme (“UCIS”) as defined in the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (“FSMA”).

Classic compositions and the most innovative of cocktails all become part of the Langosteria experience. Characterised by creations which, step by step, are made to accompany you from the moment you walk through the door to the final goodbye. From an “Americano a modo mio” to an exotic “Passion dreams”. From “Shibuya” to “Manhattan”, via “Milano New York”, the byword is “Uno mas”. Our “Giuda” will never let you down. But there is no doubt that “Irma” will seduce you. And those who prefer to thoroughly honour tradition can take their pick from “Martini Cocktail”, “Old Fashioned” and “Margarita”. A wide range of recipes. For a selection which may be different every time but is always yours. A new ritual, because forgetting the hectic life is a luxury, one which starts right now. “I’m a man of simple tastes, I’m always satisfied with the best”. The words of Oscar Wilde, the interpretations of the after-dinner drink in Langosteria style. Oceanic journeys in search of unique reserves. A route which leads to vintage Bas Armagnac and rums from exotic lands. For those who prefer contemplation, there are the various evolutions of whisky, from those which aim for the utmost in perfection to the Samaroli Blends, with their often-unique characteristics. A unique experience, evening after evening. To enthral and amaze. But always characterised by the international style of Langosteria.
