RIGA SHOPPING MALL RIGA, LATVIA FEASIBILITY STUDY Preparation and Analysis: Bank Financing of Construction Project

The Project ► Two

stories of a commercial Western standard "mall" area       

retail commercial establishments a bank service establishments (laundry, dry-cleaning etc) up-scale restaurants fast-food facilities a night-club and disco office and residential

► This

shopping mall space will be the first of its kind in and around Riga

The Project ► The

project site is situated on the main highway between Riga and Riga International Airport.  3 - 4 minutes to reach the Mall site from the center of Riga by way of the bridge over the Daugava River  3 minutes' drive to the southwest is an oldSoviet-style multiple high-rise housing complexes in which close to a quarter of a million persons presently reside.

The Project ► The

project site is situated on the main highway between Riga and Riga International Airport.  Most of these people work in Riga and must reach their jobs by using the highway, thus ensuring that they will pass the Mall twice a day  There are virtually no shopping facilities of any size or substance in the vicinity of this housing area.

Term Sheet ► DESCRIPTION:

$48 million conventional construction and/or take out loan (mortgage); term: 7 – 10 Years (Terms flexible), rate: 10% (or lower). ► SECURITY:

 (1) Mortgage of land and improvement to be executed by MESA (land - or such other entity as to which the land may be conveyed at the start of construction) and MOS-MALL (improvement);  (2) Full guarantee of initial draw- down;  (3) Performance and payment (subcontractors and suppliers) bond.

Term Sheet ► EQUITY:

Flexible in terms of debt – equity mix but can be structured to include:  (1) straight equity injections  (2) land; worth after clearing which has been completed - $1.5 million presently owned by MESA and investors;  (3) preparation of design and engineering drawings by MESA ($1 million +/-)  (4) condo sales $3 - $5 million held in escrow. (4) LOC enhancements and/or structures.

Term Sheet ► PURPOSE:

Construction of commercial Western standard "mall" area which will contain retail commercial establishments (a large western "department store selling mid-range goods priced to be affordable, and a large auto show-room will serve as an anchor tenants), up-scale restaurants, a general-purpose hall, above ground parking, a petrol and refueling station, and a 13-14-story office/residential apartment tower. With a tentative list of viable, interested parties, tenant commitments will grow quickly once project receives a conditional commitment.

Term Sheet ► PROJECT

SITE: Situated on principal route to new Riga International airport. Most people work in Riga and must reach jobs by using the highway, ensuring that they pass the Mall twice a day. Virtually no shopping facilities of any size or substance exist in vicinity of this project.

Term Sheet ► EQUITY

YIELDS: Final deal structure will determine project equity yields.  While preliminary analysis point to average equity ROE 31.9%, returns appear understated.  If rents increase beyond projection assumptions relative to supply/demand factors, increase in GDP, continuing control of inflation, and expected increase in disposable income, average ROE should increase beyond 45%.

Term Sheet ► LENDERS

PRIMARY SOURCE OF PAYMENT CASH FLOW: Conservative projections geared to test viability of the project to protect construction (and/or take out lender) in terms of  (1) ability of the project to generate operating cash flows over debt service  (2) probabilities that the project requires additional equity over $7 million and  (3) whether, after debt service, returns are available to service equity participants. Given conservative projections, it appears the project is solid and sound in terms of full lender payout.

Term Sheet ► CONSTRUCTION:

MESA HOUSING

GROUP, INC.: (Architect / designer-builder).  Principal participant for design and construction, MESA is highly experienced in working in Russia and the surrounding republics, as well as in North Africa and, of course, Turkey. ►The

firm received international recognition for the massive housing project at Tchailkowvka, Russia, to house contingents of Russian officers and their families returning from postings in East Germany.

Term Sheet ► The

MESA GROUP of Companies (MESA), based in Ankara, Turkey, is a fifteen (15) corporation conglomerate which has operated for over 25 years in real estate development, construction, engineering and architectural, resort and tourism, and marketing fields.  The firm developed, designed and delivered more than twenty-five major housing complexes with all related facilities, in Turkey and abroad.

Term Sheet ► SURVEY

OF EXISTING FACILITIES IN RIGA RELEVANT TO THE MALL:  a) Existing office stock versus need ►A

shortage of Western standard office space continues to dog the Riga market. Much of the trading and office spaces in Riga do not correspond to Western standards.  As a result, rental agreements with upwards of 30% of future tenants are generally reached while construction is still in progress;

Term Sheet ► b)

Current rental/purchase rates:

 As of April 1998, rents for offices and shops in downtown Riga is 40-60 US$ per square meter per month. (Lower rates pertain for so called "Russian standard" offices)  Higher rates are generally available for fully equipped "Western standard" offices. Purchase of office and residential space is over $US 1,000 per M2 and climbing

Term Sheet ► ECONOMIC

AND MARKET CONDITIONS IN LATVIA AND RIGA: Since regaining independence in 1991, Latvia has put in place a comprehensive program of economic reforms which will develop an open market economy based on free trade and competition. Latvia now is welcoming extensive international trade and investment.
