BUSINESS UPDATES

• New Investment Strategy - Eurocastle remains on track to close its first acquisition under the New Investment Strategy in Q2 2024, subject to certain conditions precedent. As previously announced, Eurocastle has agreed to acquire part of a boutique retail complex in an affluent part of Athens, Greece. The total expected investment is approximately €6.3 million, of which Eurocastle's share is approximately €5.0 million. In parallel with executing this first investment, the Company has been underwriting a number of additional opportunities.
  In addition, Eurocastle has made significant progress on establishing an investment structure through which it expects to invest alongside selected external co-investors. The Company has recently commenced the pre-marketing phase of launching a Luxembourg regulated fund with a first close targeted by the end of Q2 2024. In addition to generating attractive risk adjusted returns on its share of any investments made through the fund, Eurocastle anticipates also receiving market standard management and incentive fees from the external investors.
• Additional Reserves - The Company reduced these reserves from €10.6 million to €10.5 million, or €10.55 per share, during the quarter, with the reduction of €0.1 million reflecting reserves being utilised in line with anticipated costs. As at 31 March 2024, of the total Additional Reserves of €10.5 million, €5.4 million related to the legacy German tax matter with the balance of approximately €5.1 million in place to allow for future costs and potential liabilities while the Company establishes in parallel the New Investment Strategy.
