"Using a conservative analysis explained fully in the business plan, it is reasonable for you to expect a 10-12 fold return on your investment paid out over the life of the investment in quarterly dividends. Calculations for the ROI are based on a static sales price of the real estate using the actual historical sales data from the Gran Pacifica business unit. If we see even a moderate increase in retail prices, or the other business units deliver a higher sales price, returns to shareholders are even more impressive. It is likely that an IPO would make sense in the future and management is exploring this possibility." | Costa Rica
Gran Caribbean is one of the largest privately-owned Caribbean paradise beachfront properties available in the world today, consisting of 1.85 miles (3 km) of actual Costa Rican beach frontage. All other oceanfront properties in Costa Rica are restricted by current laws to 600 ft (200 mts), but fortunately Gran Caribbean was purchased before those laws came into effect! The property is north of the Port of Limon with access by blacktop and gravel roads running parallel to the sea, as well as by a freshwater canal system also running parallel on the west side of the property. The freshwater canal and lagoon system is protected by natural forests teeming with myriad varieties of flora and fauna. The topography of the land is flat and suitable for building save for the mangroves surrounding the lagoon and canal zones that feed into a large freshwater lake; this are is ideal for a marina.
| "The multiple country strategy not only serves the Boomer consumer’s demand for location, climate, and amenity choice, it provides the investor with geographic diversification of assets thus lowering the overall risks associated with any one-country political or economic challenges vested in the ownership of a single property. Investors also benefit from the additional diversification into multiple business types in each location. Returns from these businesses are expected to contribute significantly to the bottom line as we reach critical mass, and well into the future.
The Gran Pacifica business unit is already achieving superior returns and paying dividends. It is an excellent proof of concept, having evolved in one of the toughest business climates, and an even more difficult selling environment. It is already exceeding ROI projection yields outlined in the business plan. It is likely that the new properties in Belize, Costa Rica, Panama, and Argentina will produce an even higher yield per acre to shareholders."

| Our Unique Selling Proposition (USP)
North American consumers largely take for granted the basic comforts of reliable electricity, excellent water pressure, high speed bandwidth for internet, access to top notch medical care, and quality construction. In Latin America, many developers fail to provide even these basic services. Additionally, the vast majority of projects in the region are one country, one location. They are often little more than a collection of lots with limited infrastructure. Most have few or no homes or residential product in place. These “ghost towns” are likely to remain just that. Boomer retirees want life, activities, neighbors, and community, something that the majority of these projects, sadly, cannot offer.
We are unique however, because it delivers the excellent infrastructure needed for a high quality of life experience that North Americans have come to expect. Significant resources are invested up front for amenities like golf, tennis and health facilities. Contractual requirements to build a home ensure that community happens quickly. The Boomers are a discerning crowd and they demand retirement homes that serve their comfort needs and lifestyle wants. We deliver a high level of amenities and infrastructure, provides real product choice, and is setting new standards in the region for these retiring Baby Boomers
We also understands that one geography doesn’t fit all clients looking for a retirement home south-of-the-border. Some folks prefer a coastal boating community, others the dry, grape growing climates, some like mountains and eternal spring, some the beach, some like to golf, others enjoy tennis. We provide real choice where it matters, in location selection. This is accomplished by developing properties in the various geographies of the region. Clients can choose from a home along the Pacific or Caribbean coasts, in the cool tropical mountains, or in the arid, high deserts of South America.
An investment in in our company recognizes the advantage of being in front of the current macro demographic trend with a specific product that delivers the details critically important for the Boomer consumer. Demand for this product is proven by 238 homesites and condominiums already sold and 97 residences complete and under construction. You can participate as an equity partner in serving these clients and reap the rewards of providing the solution so many of them will own in retirement.
Five reasons you should invest with us:
1.Return on Investment (ROI) to shareholders is immediate and ongoing. From January 2005 through December 31, 2009, 19 quarterly dividend payments have been paid. We accelerate the sales pace, retail price, and ROI to shareholders by building a resort community with the infrastructure and amenities expected by the North American consumer. Along with our partners we have invested over $26M to date in acquisitions, infrastructure, construction, amenities and services producing tangible examples and finished products. Gran Pacifica Phase I is complete. Current facilities include golf course, clubhouse, condos, bar, restaurant and swimming pool. Existing facilities in Belize include beachfront resort with 20 condos, bar, restaurant, dive shop, health clubs, tennis court and swimming pools. Phase I of Grand Baymen Garden is in presales with construction of building A to begin April 2010. Dividends are paid according to the mechanism outlined in the prospectus, which mandates that 90% of real estate sales profits are paid out in a quarterly dividend. Investors can expect to earn at least 10 times their investment amount over the period of investment.
2.The market is large and growing. Right now 500,000 U.S. retirees receive Social Security checks overseas. Many more North Americans are considering living or owning property in Latin America, a number that today exceeds 4,500,000. Baby Boomer retirement will largely drive this market over the next 20 years and the trend is in its infancy. As many more retirees look to the tropics for affordable, yet enhanced retirement lifestyles, phenomenal growth in these in these already large numbers is likely.
3.You will be joining a powerful A-team that has proven its skill over the last 10 years by dealing effectively with the many challenges that face projects of this scale. This includes a large international hotel chain, a former Ambassador to the region and White House policy advisor, a “big four” accounting and hotel consulting firm, a former CENTEX and US Homes President and COO, the architect of three Marriott hotels and the Four Seasons in Costa Rica, the land planning firm who was Walt Disney’s choice for master planning when they wanted to build a town, the architect and creator of numerous golf courses throughout the US, and a cadre of influential Latin Americans.
4.Our company is a diversified investment, both geographically and by business type. The Gran Pacifica business unit has sold 238 properties to date representing less than 3% of its total property. Our second property, Grand Baymen Belize, is now selling and construction on the Baymen Garden Phase I begins April 2010. The Costa Rica business unit is passing through environmental permitting. Acquisitions of assets in Panama, the tropical highlands, and Argentina are being actively pursued.
5.Desirability drives demand, and demand drives price. We build traditional new urbanist neighborhoods like the community built by Walt Disney outside Orlando, FL called Celebration and the new Village at Pinehurst. Master planning along these principles produces yields three to five times higher than traditional planning concepts while delivering the charm of a village setting to consumers. Boomers demand services, infrastructure, amenities, and community. We are one of only a very few companies delivering this in Latin America right now. By differentiating ourselves in this way, we have created a final product that is highly desirable and attractive to the vast Baby Boomer market.
