From: "Marc.Kensington" < To: Karyna Shuliak Cc: Alex Peto Subject: Re: Bin Palace Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2019 13:08:37 +0000 Dear Karyna, We are exchanging for a while ... without any final strategy. After talking with the vendor's lawyers, I suggest to: - Send a formal offer at 23 million euros with the name of the company, the name of the bank, a contact at the bank and the final buyer. The vendor wants absolutely to know to whom he is selling his property. - This letter should be without any conditions excepted the purchase of Pamur Anstalt, owning the Bin Palace in Marrakech. You received all the legal documents for the company and the asset. - With this letter, I will jump in a plane and negotiate this reduced price with the vendor. We are below the bottom price for the share deal and this additional discount should cover all the risks mentioned in your different emails. - Kensington provision unchanged at 1 million euros We have a good chance to get at these conditions.

El Pacha, ler etage 40000 - Marrakech (Morocco) Tel.: Cell: www.kensingtonmorocco.com Le lun. 11 mars 2019 A 02:19, Karyna Shuliak > a ecrit : Dear Marc, EFTA00552085 We just met with the lawyers. Are there terms for the letter of credit or are you asking for escrow documents? Do you have them? Is this for the purchase of the anshalt, or the bvi co., or the property? We are told that highly unlikely that anyone will be allowed to turn the house into a hotel, but understand you must wait and see. Our suggestion is as follows: we will close immediately at 19 million euros for the shares plus 1 m to Kensington. If this is not acceptable, it appears that your vendor will need to find another buyer and wish you luck. This transaction has too many risks. Thank you.

There is still a discussion with another potential buyers. They visited the property several times, checked all the mechanical and now are only waiting for a permit to increase the number of rooms by adding several pavilions to 60. Their plan is to get the Bin Palace to a boutique hotel. This is the only reason why we are still exchanging. The vendor was clear with the other buying. They applied for a permit on their own risk. The first one who pays gets the property. What are we talking about: Bin Palace is 25 years old property, more a piece of art than a house. Roof, wall, ceilings are in excellent condition. Plumbing, floor heating or electricity also, but might be upgraded. Depends of the wishes of the future owner. Would you redo all this in a castle in Europe ? Talking about the unfinished guest house: This should not be an issue. 70 % of this house was built 25 years ago and is still in the same condition. There everything will be renewed. Even starting new from 0 would not exceed 300 000 euros more expenses. After sending a letter of credit, you will be allowed to commit all the surveyors you wish. - Different costs and risks EFTA00552086 The whole staff is paid by a management company. This company is not absolutely part of the deal. You can choose to take it over or to create a new one. All the employees rights will be cleared by the vendor and the buyer starts with new contracts. There is no ground water risk in Marrakech. The water level in the Palmeraie is about 30 m deep. No risk to get basement overflowing. Buying the property in Morocco will add 7 % fees (registration fees, state taxes and notary). - Offer for an asset deal in Morocco The owner could consider an asset deal in Morocco at 29 million euros, the same price as the other potential buyer. 29 million euros divided as follow: 28 million euros transferred to the notary escrow account and I million euros to Kensington, in order to pay several transaction expenses in Morocco, on behalf of the vendor. There you have to add our negotiation provision of I million euros. You will receive an invoice for both transfers of I million euros. The way to buy the shares at 25 million euros is still possible.
