INVESTMENT STRATEGY

THREE INDIVIDUAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES A: Value-adding strategy → Acquisition, renovation, improvement and stabilizing operations of real estate properties to maximize rent potential and increase long-term value → B and C products: 15-35 years old buildings well maintained allowing to add value through renovations leading to rent increases → Apartments specifically built for the American workforce B: Transition strategy for rent restricted properties (LIHTC) → Acquisition of properties with rent restrictions in place that are about to expire and enable a transition into the market C: Strategy for stabilized properties → Acquisition of stabilized properties which generate solid and regular returns ■ Investment in US multifamily real estate properties situated in strong urban locations in supply- constrained markets ■ Mid- to long-term investment perspective through three individual investment strategies:

OUTLOOK

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Strictly confidential 25 04/2017

CURRENT TRENDS IN THE US REAL ESTATE MARKET

■ Shift from home ownership to renting: Home ownership at just 63.7%, the lowest level in over 30 years ■ Demand for rental properties outpaces supply: Since 2010, the construction of multifamily houses has been increasing. To meet the high demand, more than 300,000 units have been built in every year since then ■ Strong rent and occupancy growth in multifamily housing: The average annual growth rate from 2006 to 2016 was 3.1% and even 4.3% from 2011 to 2016. The highest rent increases are to be found in regions with the highest millennial population and the highest employment growth. Currently, the vacancy rates are at the lowest level in over 30 years ■ Secondary and tertiary market growth: The supply-demand dynamics are likely to continue to be favorable for the rental market in the secondary and tertiary segments ■ Interest rates higher but cap rates remain flat: Interest rates have increased since the November presidential elections. Growing interest rates are expected to trigger inflation as well as higher rents

THE TRUMP IMPACT

UNEXPECTED POSITIVE EFFECTS FOR VARIA Economic stimulation

→ Investments in infrastructure and defence → Tax reductions (individual, corporate), deregulation

Inflation likely

→ Personal income growth accelerates and increases buying power → Higher wages for blue collar workers residing in secondary and tertiary markets throughout the US → Higher costs for goods and services (including housing)

Higher interest rates on long-term debt

→ Increase of the interest rates of US 7 and 10 Year Treasuries – growth of fixed rate loans → LIBOR relatively flat but increasing spreads – low impact on variable rate loans

Rental housing market expected to do well

→ Rent grows consistently with historical inflationary cycles, thereby improving multifamily property fundamentals → Supply-demand renter fundamentals remain unchanged – higher personal income support higher rents and lower delinquencies → Benefits for Varia’s secondary and tertiary markets (e.g. higher rent restriction thresholds)

► High rent growth and improved fundamentals are expected to offset the increased costs of debt ► Varia adjusts the financing mechanisms for its acquisitions based on the debt market development ► Buyer-investor appetite for multifamily rental housing is expected to stay high and pressuring capitalization rates to remain low

OUTLOOK 2017

THREE PRIORITIES HAVE BEEN SET FOR 2017 INVESTMENT → Deployment and acquisition of new properties in the first semester 2017 → As of March 31, 2017 more than USD 106.6 million were already invested in six different properties located in TX, SC, WA and MO → Two additional deals in MO and IN expected to close in April 2017 for a total of USD 28.6 million STRATEGY → Focus on the existing portfolio, especially in terms of renovation → Implementation of planned works, rents increase and returns optimization → Process expected to take two years, initial benefits awaited in 2017 FINANCIALS → Distribution of CHF 1.35 per share to shareholders to be proposed at the upcoming AGM on May 23, 2017 → Delivery of solid results by continuing to implement the Company’s growth strategy → Distribution of the expected returns in the amount of 6 to 8% of the sum of the Company’s issued share capital and share premium from capital contributions to investors
