Disclaimer

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain statements contained in this presentation constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. Forward-looking information may relate to the REIT’s future

  • utlook and anticipated events or results and may include statements regarding the financial position, business strategy, budgets, litigation, projected costs, capital expenditures, financial results, taxes, plans

and objectives of or involving the REIT. Particularly, statements regarding future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities for the REIT or the real estate or automotive dealership industry are forward-looking statements. The REIT has based these forward-looking statements on factors and assumptions about future events and financial trends that it believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs, including that the Canadian economy will remain stable over the next 12 months, that tax laws remain unchanged, that conditions within the automotive dealership real estate industry and the automotive dealership industry generally, including competition for acquisitions, will be consistent with the current climate, that the Canadian capital markets will provide the REIT with access to equity and/or debt at reasonable rates when required and that the Dilawri Organization will continue its involvement with the REIT. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based upon assumptions that management believes are reasonable based on information currently available to management, there can be no assurance that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements necessarily involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the REIT’s control, that may cause the REIT’s or the industry’s actual results, performance, achievements, prospects and opportunities in future periods to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements made in this presentation relate only to events or information as of the date of this presentation. Except as required by law, the REIT and Dilawri undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Please refer to “Forward-Looking Statements” in the REIT’s regulatory filings. NON-IFRS MEASURES This presentation makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. Funds from operations (‘‘FFO’’), adjusted funds from operations (‘‘AFFO’’), net operating income (‘‘NOI’’), cash net operating income (‘‘Cash NOI’’) and Same Property cash operating income (“Same Property Cash NOI”) are key measures of performance used by management and real estate businesses. However, such measures are not defined by IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. The REIT believes that AFFO is a key measure of economic earnings performance and is indicative of the REIT’s ability to pay distributions from earnings, while FFO, NOI and Cash NOI are important measures of operating performance and the performance of real estate properties. The IFRS measurement most directly comparable to FFO, AFFO, NOI and Cash NOI is net income. Please refer to “Non-IFRS Measures” in the REIT’s regulatory filings.
