Increasing the NAV per unit over time is a strategic focus for DAT and may be driven by: Net Asset Value* Per Segment
Net asset value “NAV” represents the net assets attributable to unitholders of the Trust, including adjustments to remove deferred income taxes payable or receivable, Deferred Unit Incentive Plan payable, and the unamortized balance of the net lending portfolio discount and mortgages payable premiums that are included in net assets on the Trust’s consolidated statements of fjnancial position. For defjnition of the non-IFRS measures, please refer to the Q2 2017 MD&A. *Based on net asset value as at June 30, 2017 as disclosed in the Financial Statements.

Income- Producing Properties
Real estate investing in income properties is cyclical but, historically, has provided attractive risk-adjusted returns. Compared to stocks and bonds, real estate investing generally ofgers posi- tive and stable cash fmows, attractive yields, more consistent returns in periods of market volatility, and hedging capabilities against infmation.

Lending Portfolio
Traditional real estate lending continues to be valuable by providing a base return while we seek
- pportunities with more desirable risk-adjusted
returns. In addition, we believe that maintaining an allocation to traditional real estate lending provides more stable returns during economic uncertainty.

At-a-glance
Our mortgages are secured by all types of residential and commercial real estate property. We typically fjnance properties with lower risk profjles, such as multi-family residential rental properties and stabilized income properties. We also invest in higher yielding developer and construction loans when we are comfortable with the underlying security and covenant of the borrower.

Energy + Infrastructure
Infrastructure and renewable power investments are equity investments with long-term fjnancing, long-term contracts and returns that are generally higher than real estate loans or equity when the equity investment is made prior to development. The renewable power sector is relatively new in Canada, although it has a long history elsewhere in the world.
DAT Investor Presentation | 24
Dream Hard Asset Alternatives Trust | Energy & Infrastructure
Why Invest in Renewable Power?
Contracts for renewable power are typically with governments or regulated utilities that have high credit ratings and provide for the sale of electricity at a fjxed rate for between 20 and 25 years. Returns are generally higher than real estate loans or equity when the investment is made prior to the operational stage. Operating costs are relatively predictable and the debt is typically limited in recourse to the particular asset and is completely paid ofg over the term of the contract. Complex environmental approval and regulatory process, however, the construction is relatively quick with predictable pricing. Wind and sunshine are free. Low correlation to other fjnancial investments. Demand in Canada is increasingly growing for ‘green’ initiatives.

Dream Hard Asset Alternatives Trust | Potential Future Stabilized Portfolio
While we have been turning over the initial assets, we believe we have im- proved the existing assets, by investing in higher returning assets, such as renewable power, and identifying lending and development activities that are likely to generate higher returns. As the non-income-producing assets are liquidated over time and the pro- ceeds are re-invested, DAT is expected to produce signifjcantly higher current returns. Once we have all of DAT’s assets available for investment, we believe that future returns will be more diversifjed and higher on a risk- adjusted basis. We will continue to maximize returns from current investments through Dream’s core competencies of lending and investing directly in development
- f residential properties, renewable power projects and commercial in-
come-producing properties. We will continue to seek opportunities in Canadian renewable energy assets. Renewable power investments have typically provided predictable returns at levels that are higher than from income properties. Conservative balance sheet positions us to take advantage of future invest- ment opportunities.
