STATE OF THE UNITS REPORTS: Q1, 2011 Tuesday, May 17, 2011
Dear Member-Partners and Member-Candidates, To say it’s been an eventful quarter in the life of LEAGUE is definitely an understatement. The first three months of 2011 produced remarkable developments, chief among them was the rise in the value of the IGW REIT to $1.055 per unit, and a distribution rate increase to 7.50 cents per unit per annum. This is the sixth consecutive rise in the unit value of the IGW REIT since December, 2009. The current unit value is up from last December's $1.035, an increase of 1.93% in three months. The year-over-year increase from March 2010 is 5.28%. Looking Back Additional positive news is that we sold a portion of the Canadian mortgage-backed securities investments held by the SegDebt 1 and SegDebt 2 LPs at a considerable price increase. As a result, depending on which LP they invested in, Member-Partners are receiving a significant portion of capital being returned to them. We’ve also been very pleased by the reception given to the Member-Partners’ Solar Energy Limited Partnership. Within two months of launch, the $2,000,000 minimum offering was surpassed, and now well over $4,000,000 to-date has been received from interested Member-Partners. Meanwhile, on May 21, unitholders will be receiving their first distributions of 9% or 11%, depending on the units they subscribed to, with the initial phases of project well underway. And don’t worry – if you still want to participate in this “sustainable” investment, you still can! We have reached a significant stage in the evolution of the Wesbrooke Retirement Limited Partnership, the seniors residence to be built in Pitt Meadows, BC. A building permit has been granted, construction financing arranged, and the tendering process is well under way. Meanwhile, at Eagle Landing in Chilliwack, BC, an 85,000 sq.ft. Home Depot store and a smaller Dollar Giant store have now opened, joining Walmart, Cineplex Odeon, and A&W as our primary tenants. Looking Forward The final outlines of Colwood City Centre continue to take shape as our team of design consultants work through the drawings that will lead to development and building permit approval by year-end. Our pre-sale targets are almost fully met for the first residential building, while negotiations are underway with key anchor and office tenants. We are also in talks with dining and service-oriented retail tenants who will occupy the spaces surrounding the community’s central plaza. Before we go... I would like to express my gratitude to everyone in the LEAGUE family. Not only to you our Member-Partners for continuing to support us with your trust and confidence – even during the recent economic turbulence – but also to our LEAGUE staff. In less than five years, we have built a company with more than $800-million in assets under management. Thanks to that growth and our prudent management, major industry figures are noticing LEAGUE. With like-minded associates like these, we trust that these relationships will translate to even greater opportunities for all of LEAGUE's Member-Partners. Thank you. Attached to this letter, we are pleased to provide you with a property-by-property report of the properties we manage on your behalf. Should you have any questions, please click here to contact your friendly Member Services Managers, who will be always happy to assist you. Warmest regards,
