Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.


(a joint stock company incorporated under the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt)
Institutional Offering of 510,000,000 New Shares
This Offering Memorandum relates to the initial public offering by Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E., a joint stock
company incorporated under the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt (the ‘‘Company’’ or ‘‘Emaar Misr’’) of 510,000,000 new
ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of EGP 1 (the ‘‘Institutional Offering Shares’’) to institutional investors (the
‘‘Institutional Offering’’).
The Company is also offering up to an additional 90,000,000 new ordinary shares (the ‘‘Public Offering Shares’’ and,
together with the Institutional Offering Shares, the ‘‘New Shares’’) in a domestic public offering in Egypt, including to retail
investors (the ‘‘Egyptian Public Offering’’ and, together with the Institutional Offering, the ‘‘Combined Offering’’) under a
separate offering document (the ‘‘Public Subscription Notice’’). Investors in Egypt should refer to and make any purchase
solely in reliance on the Public Subscription Notice. The Institutional Offering Shares are not being offered to retail investors
in Egypt.

Offer Price: EGP 3.80 per New Share

Investing in the Institutional Offering Shares involves risks. See ‘‘Risk Factors’’ beginning on page 14.
There is currently no market for the ordinary shares of the Company, including the New Shares. Application will be made for
listing and introduction of the New Shares to trading on the Egyptian Stock Exchange (the ‘‘EGX’’) under the symbol
‘‘EMFD.CA’’. The existing ordinary shares of the Company were listed on the EGX on 4 March 2015, but trading in the
ordinary shares, including the New Shares, is conditional on the satisfaction of certain conditions set out in the EGX Listing
Rules including, without limitation, completion of the Combined Offering. Trading in the ordinary shares of the Company,
including the New Shares, on the EGX is expected to commence on or around 2 July 2015, subject to receipt of regulatory
approvals. The Institutional Offering Shares and the Public Offering Shares will be offered at the Offer Price.
The Institutional Offering Shares are expected to be delivered on or around 2 July 2015, subject to receipt of regulatory
approvals. The Institutional Offering Shares will be delivered in accordance with the relevant transfer and settlement
procedures prescribed by the Capital Market Law and Misr for Central Clearing, Depository and Registry S.A.E. for the
settlement of shares. See ‘‘Plan of Distribution—Subscription, Prefunding, Settlement and Transfer of the Ordinary Shares’’.
Payment for the Institutional Offering Shares must be made in EGP no later than 25 June 2015.
In connection with the Combined Offering, EFG Hermes Promoting and Underwriting, as stabilisation manager (the
‘‘Stabilisation Manager’’), or any of its agents, may effect transactions in the ordinary shares of the Company on the EGX with
a view to supporting or maintaining the market price of the ordinary shares at a level higher than that which might have
otherwise prevailed in the open market. See ‘‘Stabilisation’’.
The Institutional Offering Shares have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the ‘‘Securities Act’’), or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the United
States, and may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, in the United States, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in
a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in compliance with any applicable
securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. The Institutional Offering Shares will be offered and sold
only (i) outside the United States in ‘‘offshore transactions’’ in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act
(‘‘Regulation S’’) to institutional investors in a number of countries, including Egypt and (ii) in the United States only to
‘‘qualified institutional buyers’’ (‘‘QIBs’’) as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act (‘‘Rule 144A’’), in reliance on
Rule 144A or another exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
Prospective purchasers that are QIBs are hereby notified that the sellers of the Institutional Offering Shares may be relying
on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A.
The Institutional Offering Shares are subject to transfer restrictions in certain jurisdictions. Prospective purchasers should
read the restrictions described under ‘‘Transfer Restrictions’’ and ‘‘Plan of Distribution—Selling Restrictions’’.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Each prospective investor, by accepting delivery of this Offering Memorandum, agrees that this Offering
Memorandum is being furnished solely for the purpose of enabling a prospective investor to consider the
purchase of the Institutional Offering Shares. Any reproduction or distribution of this Offering
Memorandum, in whole or in part, any disclosure of its contents or use of any information herein for any
purpose other than considering an investment in the Institutional Offering Shares is prohibited, except to
the extent that such information is otherwise publicly available.
In this Offering Memorandum, the ‘‘Company’’ and ‘‘Emaar Misr’’ refer to Emaar Misr for
Development S.A.E., unless the context otherwise requires. ‘‘Emaar Properties’’ and ‘‘Principal
Shareholder’’ refers to Emaar Properties PJSC, the current parent company of Emaar Misr.
None of EFG Hermes Promoting and Underwriting, J.P. Morgan Securities plc, Emirates Financial
Services PSC and Emirates NBD Bank PJSC (together, the ‘‘Managers’’), any of their respective affiliates
or advisors makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, nor accepts any responsibility, as to
the accuracy or completeness of any of the information in this Offering Memorandum and accordingly
disclaim, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all liability, whether arising in tort,
contract or otherwise that they may otherwise be found to have in respect of this Offering Memorandum.
This Offering Memorandum is not intended to provide the basis of any credit or other evaluation and
should not be considered as a recommendation by any of the Company, the Principal Shareholder or the
Managers that any recipient of this Offering Memorandum should purchase the Institutional Offering
Shares. Each potential purchaser of Institutional Offering Shares should determine for itself the relevance
of the information contained in this Offering Memorandum, and its purchase of Institutional Offering
Shares should be based upon such investigation, as it deems necessary.
Emirates Financial Services PSC is acting as a manager in connection with the Institutional Offering but
not as an underwriter. Emirates NBD Bank PJSC, an affiliate of Emirates Financial Services PSC, is acting
only as an underwriter in connection with the Institutional Offering and will have the obligation to
purchase Institutional Offering Shares for which Emirates Financial Services PSC fails to procure
purchasers. References to the Managers in this Offering Memorandum should be construed accordingly.
This Offering Memorandum does not constitute an offer to the public to purchase or otherwise acquire the
Institutional Offering Shares. In making an investment decision regarding the Institutional Offering
Shares, prospective investors must rely on their own examination of the Company and the terms of the
Institutional Offering, including the merits and risks involved and prospective investors should rely only on
the information contained in this Offering Memorandum. None of the Company, the Principal Shareholder
or the Managers has authorised any other person to provide prospective investors with different
information. If anyone provides prospective investors with different or inconsistent information,
prospective investors should not rely on it. Prospective investors should assume that the information
appearing in this Offering Memorandum is accurate only as of its date. The Company’s business, financial
condition, results of operations, prospects and the information set forth in this Offering Memorandum may
have changed since the date hereof.
This Offering Memorandum does not constitute an advertisement or an offer of securities in Egypt. It is
not intended to be and must not be distributed publicly and/or to, or for the benefit of, any person within
Egypt except as may be permitted by Egyptian law.
Apart from the responsibilities and liabilities, if any, which may be imposed on any of the Managers by any
applicable regulatory regime, none of the Managers accepts any responsibility whatsoever for the contents
of this Offering Memorandum or for any other statement made or purported to be made by it or any of
them or on its or their behalf in connection with the Company or the Institutional Offering Shares. Each of
the Managers accordingly disclaims, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all and any liability
whether arising in tort or contract or otherwise (save as referred to above) which it might otherwise have in
respect of this Offering Memorandum or any such statement.
The Company accepts responsibility for the information contained in this Offering Memorandum, and
having taken all reasonable care to ensure that such is the case, the information in this Offering
Memorandum is, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, in accordance with the facts and contains no
material omission.
In this Offering Memorandum, the Company has included its own estimates, assessments, adjustments and
judgments in preparing some market information, which has not been verified by an independent third-

ii
party. Market information included herein is, therefore, unless otherwise attributed to a third-party source,
to a certain degree subjective. While the Company believes that its own estimates, assessments,
adjustments and judgments are reasonable and that the market information prepared by it approximately
reflects the industry and the markets in which it operate, there is no assurance that its own estimates,
assumptions, assessments, adjustments and judgments are the most appropriate for making determinations
relating to market information or that market information prepared by other sources will not differ
materially from the market information included herein.
Prospective investors should not consider any information in this Offering Memorandum to be investment,
legal or tax advice. Prospective investors should consult their own counsel, accountant and other advisors
for legal, tax, business, financial and related advice regarding investing in the Institutional Offering Shares.
In making an investment decision, you must rely on your own examination, analysis and enquiry of the
Company and the terms of the Institutional Offering, including all of the merits and risks involved. None of
the Company, the Principal Shareholder or the Managers makes any representation to any offeree or
purchaser of the Institutional Offering Shares regarding the legality of an investment in the Institutional
Offering Shares by such offeree or purchaser under appropriate investment or similar laws.
Each of the Managers is acting exclusively for the Company and no one else in connection with the
Institutional Offering. None of the Managers will be responsible to any other person (whether or not a
recipient of this Offering Memorandum) for providing the protections afforded to their respective clients
nor for providing advice in relation to the Institutional Offering or any transaction or arrangement
referred to herein.
In connection with the Institutional Offering, the Managers and any of their respective affiliates acting as
an investor for its or their own account or accounts may subscribe for or purchase, as the case may be,
Institutional Offering Shares and, in that capacity, may retain, purchase, sell, offer to sell or otherwise deal
for its or their own account or accounts in such Institutional Offering Shares, any other securities of the
Company or other related investments in connection with the Institutional Offering or otherwise.
Accordingly, references in this Offering Memorandum to the Institutional Offering Shares being issued,
offered, subscribed or otherwise dealt with should be read as including any issue or offer to, or subscription
or dealing by, the Managers and any of their respective affiliates acting as an investor for its or their own
account or accounts. The Managers do not intend to disclose the extent of any such investment or
transactions otherwise than in accordance with any legal or regulatory obligation to do so.
The Company may withdraw the Institutional Offering at any time before the issuance of the Institutional
Offering Shares and the Company, the Principal Shareholder and the Managers reserve the right to reject
any offer to purchase the Institutional Offering Shares, in whole or in part, and to sell to any prospective
investor less than the full amount of the Institutional Offering Shares sought by such investor.
The Offering Memorandum does not constitute or form part of an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer
to buy, any security other than the Institutional Offering Shares offered in the Institutional Offering. The
distribution of this Offering Memorandum and the offer and sale of the Institutional Offering Shares may
be restricted by law in certain jurisdictions. Persons into whose possession this Offering Memorandum
comes are required to inform themselves about, and observe any such restrictions. See ‘‘Transfer
Restrictions’’ and ‘‘Plan of Distribution—Selling Restrictions’’ elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum.
None of the Company, the Principal Shareholder or the Managers accepts any legal responsibility for any
violation by any person, whether or not a prospective investor, of any such restrictions. Prospective
investors must comply with all applicable laws and regulations in force in any jurisdiction in which they
purchase, offer or sell the Institutional Offering Shares or possess or distribute this Offering Memorandum
and prospective investors must obtain any consent, approval or permission required for their purchase,
offer or sale of the Institutional Offering Shares under the laws and regulations in force in any jurisdiction
to which they are subject or in which they make such purchases, offers or sales. None of the Company, the
Principal Shareholder or the Managers is making an offer to sell the Institutional Offering Shares or a
solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Institutional Offering Shares to any person in any jurisdiction
except where such an offer or solicitation is permitted.
No action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction, other than the Egyptian Public Offering pursuant to
the Public Subscription Notice, that would permit a public offering of the Institutional Offering Shares
offered in the Institutional Offering, or possession or distribution of this Offering Memorandum or any
other offering material in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required.
Accordingly, neither the Institutional Offering Shares may be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and
neither this Offering Memorandum nor any other offering material or advertisement in connection with

iii
the Institutional Offering Shares may be distributed or published in or from any country or jurisdiction
except under circumstances that will result in compliance with any and all applicable rules and regulations
of any such country or jurisdiction. Persons into whose possession this Offering Memorandum comes
should inform themselves about and observe any restrictions on the distribution of this Offering
Memorandum and the offer, subscription and sale of the Institutional Offering Shares offered in the
Institutional Offering, including those set forth under ‘‘Transfer Restrictions’’ and ‘‘Plan of Distribution—
Selling Restrictions’’. Any failure to comply with these restrictions may constitute a violation of the
securities laws of any such jurisdiction. This Offering Memorandum does not constitute an offer to
subscribe for or buy any of the Institutional Offering Shares offered in the Institutional Offering to any
person in any jurisdiction to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation in such jurisdiction.

v
Other Countries
The Institutional Offering Shares are subject to transfer restrictions in certain other jurisdictions.
Prospective purchasers should read the restrictions described under ‘‘Plan of Distribution—Selling
Restrictions’’ and ‘‘Transfer Restrictions’’.

STABILISATION
In connection with the Combined Offering, the Stabilisation Manager, or any of its agents, may effect
transactions in all outstanding ordinary shares of the Company, including the New Shares, with a nominal
value of EGP 1 each (the ‘‘Ordinary Shares’’) on the EGX with a view to supporting or maintaining the
market price of the Ordinary Shares at a level higher than that which might have otherwise prevailed in the
open market. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilisation Manager (or persons acting on its
behalf) will undertake any stabilisation action. Any stabilising action may begin on or after the date of the
commencement of trading of Ordinary Shares on the EGX, and if begun, may end at any time, but must
end no later than 30 calendar days after that date (the ‘‘Stabilisation Period’’). The Company will finance
an amount equal to 15% of the gross proceeds of the Combined Offering (the ‘‘Stabilisation Fund’’) and
make such funds available to the Stabilisation Manager prior to commencement of trading. Starting on the
commencement of trading, the Stabilisation Manager will place an open purchase order at the Offer Price,
which will remain open until the end of the Stabilisation Period. At the end of the Stabilisation Period this
open purchase order will be matched with open sale orders and executed on the EGX. If the purchase
order submitted by the Stabilisation Manager exceeds the amount deposited in the Stabilisation Fund, such
purchase orders will be executed on a pro rata basis up to the amount of the Stabilisation Fund and all
Ordinary Shares purchased will be placed in the Stabilisation Fund. The Stabilisation Manager will remit
to the Company, at the end of the Stabilisation Period, any proceeds of the Combined Offering then
remaining in the Stabilisation Fund and any remaining Ordinary Shares purchased during the Stabilisation
Period using the Stabilisation Fund. The Stabilisation Manager will disclose the stabilisation transactions to
the EGX at the end of the Stabilisation Period.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION
The Company has agreed that, so long as any of the Institutional Offering Shares are ‘‘restricted
securities’’ within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, in order to permit holders of
Institutional Offering Shares to effect resales under Rule 144A, it will, during any period in which it is
neither subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
‘‘Exchange Act’’), nor exempt from reporting pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) thereunder, furnish, upon written
request, to any holder of Institutional Offering Shares, or any prospective purchaser designated by such
holder or beneficial owner upon the request of such holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser, the
information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any
successor provision thereto).

ENFORCEMENT OF ARBITRAL DECISIONS AND CIVIL LIABILITIES


Each of the United Kingdom, the United States and Egypt, among others, is a party to the United Nations
(New York) Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards 1958 (the ‘‘New
York Convention’’). Consequently, Egyptian courts should recognise and enforce in Egypt a valid arbitral
award made in the United Kingdom, the United States or any other state that is a signatory to the New
York Convention on the basis of the rules of the New York Convention, subject to qualifications provided
for in the New York Convention and compliance with Egyptian procedural regulations and arbitration law.
However, in practice, it may be difficult to enforce arbitral awards in Egypt due to:
• the relatively limited experience of Egyptian courts in enforcing international commercial arbitral
awards;
• the Egyptian courts’ inability or unwillingness to enforce such awards; or
• legal grounds (for example, the concept of ‘‘public order’’) and/or technical grounds (for example, the
lack of capacity of the parties or the invalidity of an arbitration clause).
In addition, the Company is an Egyptian joint stock company and the shareholders’ liability therein is
limited to their capital contributions. Most executive officers and directors of the Company are residents of
Egypt. All of the assets of the Company are located outside the United States and the United Kingdom. It
may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States and the United

vi
Kingdom upon the Company or such persons or to enforce against any of them judgments obtained in the
United States or the United Kingdom courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities
laws of the United States and the United Kingdom, respectively.
Enforcement of foreign judgments in Egypt is subject to the following conditions:
• the foreign courts rendering the relevant judgment offer reciprocal treatment to judgments obtained
in the courts of Egypt. If such reciprocal treatment is not offered by the court where judgment is
obtained, new proceedings should be initiated before the Egyptian courts which will re-examine the
merits of the case in the same manner as that adopted by such courts;
• the courts of Egypt are not exclusively competent to hear the dispute which constitutes the object of
the foreign judgment while the foreign courts are shown to have been competent to hear the dispute
in accordance with their own respective laws;
• the parties to the dispute were duly notified and properly represented in the proceedings;
• the foreign judgment is final and conclusive in accordance with the relevant law; and
• the foreign judgment does not conflict with a prior Egyptian judgment in the same case and is not
contrary to public order or morality in Egypt.
Judgments of courts of the United States or the United Kingdom may not be enforceable in Egypt because
there are no bilateral treaties between Egypt and the United States or the United Kingdom on the
enforcement of judgments and the courts of the United States and the United Kingdom may be deemed
not to offer reciprocal treatment to judgments obtained in the courts of Egypt. The rights of investors as
shareholders will be affected by the laws of Egypt and investors may have difficulty effecting service of
process on the Company or enforcing judgments obtained outside Egypt.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Offering Memorandum contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the Company’s
planned projects and results, including, without limitation, with respect to levels of expected investments
and costs (including breakdowns of expected costs by type or project over the lifetime of a project), target
dates for start and end of construction, start of operation, launch, opening and completion, expected
features and amenities and specific development plan targets (including target gross leasable area (GLA)
and target gross floor area (GFA) sizes, target numbers of hotel keys and serviced apartments, target or
indicative splits of GFA/GLA area by type, target numbers of units launched, sold or delivered, target
average periods to complete, target average unit sizes, rent assumptions, implied yields on construction
and target tenant mixes). A forward-looking statement is any statement that does not relate to historical
facts and events, and can be identified by the use of such words and phrases as ‘‘according to estimates’’,
‘‘aims’’, ‘‘anticipates’’, ‘‘assumes’’, ‘‘believes’’, ‘‘continue’’, ‘‘could’’, ‘‘estimates’’, ‘‘expects’’, ‘‘intends’’, ‘‘is of
the opinion’’, ‘‘may’’, ‘‘plans’’, ‘‘potential’’, ‘‘predicts’’, ‘‘projects’’, ‘‘should’’, ‘‘targets’’, ‘‘to the knowledge
of’’, ‘‘will’’, ‘‘would’’ or, in each case their negatives or other similar expressions, which are intended to
identify a statement as forward-looking. This applies, in particular, to statements containing information
on future financial results, plans, or expectations regarding the Company’s business and management, the
Company’s future growth or profitability and general economic and regulatory conditions and other
matters affecting the Company.
Forward-looking statements reflect the Company management’s (‘‘Management’’) current views of future
events, are based on Management’s assumptions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors that may cause the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-
looking statements. The occurrence or non-occurrence of an assumption could cause the Company’s actual
financial condition and results of operations to differ materially from, or fail to meet expectations
expressed or implied by, such forward-looking statements. The Company’s business is subject to a number
of risks and uncertainties that could also cause a forward-looking statement, estimate or prediction to
become inaccurate. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to:
• political, economic and social risks and other risks typically associated with emerging markets;
• terrorist events and civil disorder;
• the developing Egyptian legal system and new legislation;

vii
• the impact of foreign exchange controls;
• real estate industry risks;
• development, planning and construction risks;
• inability to conclude projects due to delays or cost overruns;
• challenges in obtaining, retaining and enforcing title to land in Egypt;
• construction-related laws, regulations, standards and licences;
• the impact of competition;
• delays or defaults in customer and client payments;
• future rental revenues, implementation of business strategy and appeal to potential tenants;
• hotel and resort-related risks;
• reliance on third parties to design, complete and manage projects;
• recognition and sustainability of future cash flows and revenue;
• dependence on Board of Directors, senior management team and certain key employees;
• the effect on internal control systems of rapid growth and expansion;
• inability to locate or acquire land suitable for development;
• the subjective and uncertain nature of property valuation;
• adequacy of insurance coverage;
• sufficiency of local infrastructure and utilities;
• environmental regulation, expenditure and liabilities;
• legal proceedings;
• reliance on related party transactions;
• potential conflicts of interest of the Principal Shareholder;
• ability to secure funding;
• other factors discussed in more detail under ‘‘Risk Factors’’; and
• factors that are not known to Management or are not considered by Management to be material at
this time.
The list above and the other factors described under ‘‘Risk Factors’’ are not exhaustive and there are other
factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in
this Offering Memorandum. Moreover, new risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible to
predict all such risk factors. It is difficult to assess the impact of all risk factors on the Company’s business
or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially
from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should
not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.
Accordingly, prospective investors should not rely on the forward-looking statements in this Offering
Memorandum and investors are strongly advised to read the following sections of this Offering
Memorandum: ‘‘Summary’’, ‘‘Risk Factors’’, ‘‘Use of Proceeds’’, ‘‘Operating and Financial Review’’,
‘‘Description of Emaar Misr’’ and ‘‘The Egyptian Real Estate Market’’. These sections include more detailed
descriptions of factors that might have an impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and the
industry in which the Company operates. None of the Company, its Management or the Managers gives
any assurance or accepts any liability regarding the future accuracy of the opinions set forth herein or as to
the actual occurrence of any predicted developments. None of the Company or the Managers assumes, and
each of the Company and the Managers expressly disclaims, any obligation, except as required by law and
the EGX Listing Rules to update any forward-looking statements or to conform these forward-looking
statements to the Company’s actual results.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Financial information
The Company has included in this Offering Memorandum:
• audited financial statements as of and for the financial years ended 31 December 2014, 2013 and 2012
prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board (‘‘IFRS’’) (the ‘‘Annual Financial Statements’’); and
• unaudited interim condensed financial statements as of and for the three months ended 31 March
2015 prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard No. 34 ‘‘Interim Financial
Reporting’’ (the ‘‘Interim Financial Statements’’ and, together with the Annual Financial Statements,

The Annual Financial Statements were audited by Allied for Accounting & Auditing (‘‘EY’’), independent
auditors in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, as stated in their audit report included
elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum. The Interim Financial Statements were reviewed by EY in
accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, ‘‘Review of Interim Financial
Information Performed by an Independent Auditor of the Entity’’ as stated in their report included elsewhere
in this Offering Memorandum. EY has neither audited nor reviewed any financial information as of and
for the three months ended 31 March 2014 included in this Offering Memorandum.
The Company also prepares statutory annual audited financial statements under Egyptian Accounting
Standards.

Currency
This Offering Memorandum contains translations of certain Egyptian pound amounts into U.S. dollars at
specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. These translations should not be construed as
representations that the Egyptian pound amounts actually represent such equivalent U.S. dollar amounts
or could be or could have been converted into U.S. dollars at the rate indicated as of the dates mentioned
herein or at all. Unless otherwise indicated, such U.S. dollar amounts have been translated from Egyptian
pounds at an exchange rate of EGP 7.634 = US$ 1.00, being the exchange rate in effect as of 31 March
2015 of the Central Bank of Egypt, as quoted by Bloomberg. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York does
not certify for customs purposes a noon buying rate for cable transfers in Egyptian pounds. See ‘‘Exchange
Rate Information’’.
In this Offering Memorandum:
• ‘‘Egyptian pound’’, ‘‘Egyptian pounds’’ or ‘‘EGP’’ refers to the lawful currency of Egypt;
• ‘‘U.S. dollar’’, ‘‘U.S. dollars’’ or ‘‘US$’’ refers to the lawful currency of the United States of America;
• ‘‘Euro’’, ‘‘Euros’’ or ‘‘A’’ refers to the single currency of the participating Member States in the Third
Stage of the European Economic and Monetary Union of the Treaty Establishing the European
Community, as amended from time to time; and
• ‘‘AED’’ refers to the lawful currency of the United Arab Emirates.

PRESENTATION OF OPERATING AND OTHER INFORMATION


This Offering Memorandum contains certain operating measures, such as sales (off-plan sales), gross floor
area, gross leasable area, number of units as well as other metrics based on, or derived from, such data,
cited in ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr’’ and ‘‘Operating and Financial Review’’, elsewhere in this Offering
Memorandum. These measures have not been audited nor reviewed by the Company’s auditors and are
not metrics or data required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS or any other generally accepted
accounting standards. Such operating data and metrics are based on the Company’s internal estimates,
assumptions and calculations. Further, operating data and metrics, as the Company defines and calculates
them, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Accordingly,
prospective investors should not place undue reliance on such operating data and metrics.
This Offering Memorandum includes backlog information that relates to residential unit sales which the
Company expects to build and deliver in the coming years. This information is used by Management as an
indicator of the Company’s inventory capacity and ability to sell residential units within the project
development timeline.

ix
This backlog is calculated from contracts for sales of residential units that have been executed. However,
actual and future sales volumes and related revenue may not be consistent with the values reflected in the
backlog. Customers may cancel or default on executed contracts for sales of residential units, or request or
cancel upgrades relating to such residential sales, altering the revenue ultimately realised compared to the
backlog figures for such units. The backlog values included in this Offering Memorandum have not been
subject to an auditor review, do not purport to represent actual realised or future revenues and should not
be considered in isolation. Investors should not place undue reliance on the backlog values included in this
Offering Memorandum.

VALUATION REPORT
DTZ Qatar LLC (‘‘DTZ’’), an independent property appraiser, valued Emaar Misr’s property interests as
of 31 December 2014. See Annex A titled ‘‘Valuation Report’’ in this Offering Memorandum. The
valuations have been prepared in accordance with the appropriate sections of the Royal Institution of
Chartered Surveyors (‘‘RICS’’) professional standards, RICS Global Valuation Practice Statements,
and RICS Global Valuation Practice Guidance—Applications contained within the RICS Valuation—
Professional Standards 2014 Red Book. Based on such valuation, the aggregate market value of Emaar
Misr’s property interests as of 31 December 2014 was EGP 23,398,340,000 (assuming expropriation of a
portion of land related to Cairo Gate) and EGP 23,428,020,000 (assuming no expropriation of the portion
of land related to Cairo Gate). In conducting the valuation, DTZ relied on the information provided by
Emaar Misr in relation to title of the properties and assumed, among other things, that the properties will
be developed and completed in accordance with the development plan.
The valuation of properties, in particular development properties, is inherently subjective and any
valuation is subject to uncertainty. Moreover, any property valuation is made on the basis of material
assumptions which, by their nature, are subjective and uncertain, may materially differ from actual results
and have not been confirmed or investigated by any third-party. These assumptions include Emaar Misr’s
ability to register title to the land, the suitability and condition of the structure and services, the absence of
deleterious materials or adverse environmental matters on the land, the proper floor area measurements
of land not measured by DTZ, the absence of outstanding statutory notices related to construction, use or
occupation, the ability of tenants to meet their lease obligations and their compliance with the lease
agreements and accuracy of the information provided by Emaar Misr, among other things. The valuation
does not include allowances or provisions for plant and machinery, goodwill, legal claims and
refurbishment of properties. Potential investors should decide for themselves whether or not Emaar Misr’s
valuation is reasonable and should read the ‘‘Valuation Report’’ attached in Annex A.
The Company can provide no assurance that any of its properties could have been or could be sold at their
respective market values set forth in the valuation report, whether or not equivalent to the values set forth
in the valuation report, will not decline significantly over time due to various factors, including changing
macro- and microeconomic conditions and other factors set forth under ‘‘Risk Factors’’. The Company can
give no assurance that a valuation at a more recent date would not produce a lower or higher value.
Investors are advised that the appraised value of Emaar Misr’s property interest should not be taken as
their actual realisable value or a forecast of their realisable value. See ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Relating to
Emaar Misr’s Business and Industry—Property valuation is inherently subjective and uncertain’’.

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING THE TARGET RATES OF RETURN


Emaar Misr’s target levered project investment rates of return set out in this Offering Memorandum are
targets only (and for the avoidance of doubt are not profit forecasts). The target levered project investment
rates of return are intended primarily as a basis for recommending investments to Emaar Misr’s Board of
Directors. These targets reflect subjective judgments in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple
interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business, economic, regulatory,
financial and other developments. There can be no assurance that such targets will be met, or that Emaar
Misr will achieve or successfully implement its investment strategy. The actual results achieved by Emaar
Misr and its investments may vary from these targets, and these variations may be material and are subject
to risks and uncertainties described elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum.
Prospective investors should note that Emaar Misr’s target levered project investment rates of return are
target returns for Emaar Misr’s investments and not for Emaar Misr itself or for any investment in the
Institutional Offering Shares. Prospective investors should not place undue reliance on such target rates in
deciding whether to invest in the Institutional Offering Shares.

x
None of the Managers or any of their respective affiliates, advisers, officers, directors or representatives,
nor the Company or EY, compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the target
return nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on the target return or its
achievability, and such parties assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the target
return.

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA


Certain information and statistics relating to the Egyptian economy, the Egyptian securities market and
the international and Egyptian real estate development industry included in this Offering Memorandum
have been extracted or derived from official and other public sources that Management believes to be
reliable, including Business Monitor International, the Central Bank of Egypt, Demographia World Urban
Areas Report, DTZ, Economist Intelligence Unit, Egypt’s Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and
Statistics (‘‘CAPMAS’’), Jones Lang LaSalle and the World Bank. Such information and statistics may be
approximations or estimates, or use rounded numbers. In addition, in some cases Management has made
rounding adjustments to some of this information and statistics for consistency of presentation. Similar
statistics may be obtainable from other sources, but the underlying assumptions, methodology and,
consequently, the resulting data may vary from source to source. Management has not independently
verified such information or statistics, and does not guarantee their accuracy and completeness. However,
Management confirms that such information has been accurately reproduced in this Offering
Memorandum and that as far as Management is aware and is able to ascertain from such information, no
facts have been omitted which would render the reproduced information inaccurate or misleading. See
‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Egypt and the MENA Region—Official statistics and market data published
in Egypt may not be complete or reliable’’.
For information related to Egypt, annual information is presented based on periods from 1 July through
30 June, the fiscal year maintained by the government of Egypt for budgeting and official statistics.
In addition, certain statements are made in this Offering Memorandum regarding the Company’s
competitive position in its industry based on statistical information published by certain bodies mentioned
above and Management’s experience and assessment of market conditions. While Management believes
these statements to be reasonable and fair approximations, to the extent that such statements are in part
derived from Management’s estimates of third-party information, individually and on an aggregate,
industry-wide basis, these statements cannot and have not been verified by Management, and independent
sources have not verified such statements. Accordingly, neither a prospective investor nor any other
person, firm or company may rely on the accuracy and completeness of that information. Such information
is contained in this Offering Memorandum under the captions ‘‘Presentation of Financial Information’’,
‘‘Exchange Rate Information’’, ‘‘Summary’’, ‘‘Risk Factors’’, ‘‘Operating and Financial Review’’, ‘‘Description
of Emaar Misr’’ and ‘‘The Egyptian Real Estate Market’’.

ROUNDING
Some financial information, operating information and other data in this Offering Memorandum have
been rounded. As a result of this rounding, figures shown as totals in this Offering Memorandum may vary
slightly from the exact arithmetic aggregation of the figures that precede them. In addition, certain
percentages presented in this Offering Memorandum reflect calculations based upon the underlying
information prior to rounding and, accordingly, may not conform exactly to the percentages that would be
derived if the relevant calculations were based upon the rounded numbers.

WEBSITES
The contents of the Company’s and Principal Shareholder’s websites (including any materials that are
hyper-linked therefrom) do not form a part of this Offering Memorandum.

SUMMARY

Overview
Emaar Misr is a leading real estate developer in Egypt focusing on premium-quality master-planned
lifestyle communities in prime locations that are anchored by landmark developments.
Emaar Misr has a strong portfolio of developments distributed among three projects under development
and a plot of undeveloped land in prime locations in East, West and Central Cairo as well as the North
Coast:
• Project Uptown Cairo is a 4.5 million square metre project under development designed to be a
mixed-use development in Central Cairo situated at the highest point in the city, built 200 metres
above sea level with easy accessibility from East, West and Central Cairo. Project Uptown Cairo has
the potential to become a new iconic city centre in Cairo. The project has been designed by world-
class architects and designers and is expected to be the first gated, integrated community project in
Central Cairo offering a wide range of amenities, including world-class shopping centres, a business
park, hotels, a spa, an 18-hole golf course and club house. Project Uptown Cairo will be home to
Emaar Misr’s flagship development, Emaar Square, a world-class shopping, residential, leisure and
entertainment complex comprising an open-air retail mall and office space designed to attract global
brands and leading local and international companies, a five star and a five-plus-star hotel, including
the first ‘‘The Address’’ branded hotel in Cairo and a state-of-the-art entertainment and leisure
centre.
• Project Marassi is a 6.5 million square metre project under development that is expected to become a
year-round resort situated in a prime location in one of the most attractive stretches of the North
Coast with easy accessibility from local and international airports. Project Marassi is designed to
feature a fully-integrated resort community, retail space, twelve anchor hotels, including three
boutique hotels, an 18-hole golf course with a golf academy and clubhouse and a 250 slip yacht
international marina inspired by the French Riviera which, due to its unique location and features, is
difficult to replicate in the region and is therefore expected to transform the area into a premier
international tourist destination. The Marassi Marina is designed to be integrated with customs and
immigration approvals for ease of access and benefits from a unique location and unmatched climate
along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the Mediterranean.
• Project Mivida is a 3.7 million square metre project under development designed to be a fully-
integrated ecologically friendly and energy-efficient community with lush landscapes in a strategic
location in New Cairo City. It is strategically located on New Cairo’s main road and is in close
proximity to the American University in Cairo and Cairo International Airport. Designed by world-
class architects and designers, Project Mivida is expected to be a fully-fledged family-oriented, leisure
and work destination featuring a range of amenities, including a business park, educational, sports and
leisure facilities and a 33-acre central park. Project Mivida will feature Mivida Downtown, a boulevard
shopping area featuring international and local brands strategically located in the centre of New Cairo
City. Mivida Downtown was designed to comprise wide pedestrian streets, water features, full
spectrum dining and easy accessibility to the town centre with multiple access points combining to
provide an unrivalled experience to visitors.
• Cairo Gate is a plot of land of approximately 0.6 million square metres in 6th of October City with
frontage of the Cairo—Alexandria Desert highway, an area with limited land offerings, which makes
Cairo Gate a strong value proposition.
As of 31 March 2015, the cumulative number of residential units sold for future delivery and the number of
residential units delivered amounted to 4,676 and 1,850 (including serviced apartments), respectively.
Emaar Misr’s net sales for the three months ended 31 March 2015 were EGP 2.0 billion compared to
EGP 1.0 billion for the three months ended 31 March 2014. Emaar Misr’s net sales for 2014 amounted to
EGP 7.1 billion, an increase of 71% compared to EGP 4.2 billion in 2013, which in turn was an increase of
27% compared to EGP 3.3 billion in 2012. Emaar Misr’s total revenue amounted to EGP 751.5 million for
the three months ended 31 March 2015, EGP 2.6 billion for the year ended 31 December 2014,
EGP 1.2 billion for the year ended 31 December 2013 and EGP 0.8 billion for the year ended 31 December
2012.

1
In a market sample comparing Emaar Misr to certain listed Egyptian real estate developers, Emaar Misr’s
share of total new net sales in Egypt increased from 10% in 2010 to 36% in 2014, which represents an
EGP 6.0 billion increase in Emaar Misr’s total new net sales in a market sample that grew by
EGP 8.7 billion. Emaar Misr’s increase in sales during that period was partially the result of the brand’s
strength and Management’s confidence in continuing to invest, construct and deliver residential units
despite the unprecedented market conditions.

Competitive Strengths
Emaar Misr believes it differentiates itself from its competition through the strength of the internationally
recognised Emaar brand, its strategically located land bank acquired at attractive rates, its offer of fully
integrated lifestyle communities of premium quality standards, its strong expertise across asset classes
leveraging Emaar Properties’ proven expertise and capabilities, and its retention of revenue generating
commercial assets.

A leading developer in a large, fast-growing market with robust fundamentals


Management believes that Emaar Misr operates in an attractive market with robust fundamentals
supporting further sustainable growth.
• Attractive demographic characteristics. All of Emaar Misr’s projects are located in Egypt, whose
population of 88 million is the largest in the MENA region and grew at a compound annual growth
rate of 2.5% between 2009 and 2014 (sources: Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics,
June 2014; Business Monitor International, March 2015). Cairo, which is Emaar Misr’s principal
target city for residential, retail and office projects, is the most populous city in the MENA region,
with more than 15.6 million people as of January 2015 (source: Demographia World Urban Areas:
11th Annual Edition, 2015) and one of the most densely populated metropolitan areas in the world.
According to Egypt’s Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics, as of January 2014, 60.9%
of the Egyptian population was below the age of thirty. These attractive demographics are expected to
be complemented by government initiatives to attract major foreign direct investment and to support
domestic confidence and purchasing power, which are expected to aid Egypt’s return to long-term
growth after a period of stagnation.
• Attractive economic environment. Management believes that the economic environment in Egypt will
lead to continued growth in demand for premium quality properties in Egypt. Egypt’s real GDP grew
at a rate of 2.2% and 2.1% in 2012 and 2013, respectively, with real GDP expected to further increase
by 2.2% in 2014 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Going forward, the real GDP
growth rate is expected to further increase to 4.0% in 2015, 4.2% in 2016 and 4.4% in 2017 (source:
Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Moreover, Egypt has experienced relatively high
inflation, with consumer prices increasing by 7.8% in 2012, 9.5% in 2013 and expected to increase by
10.1% in 2014 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Going forward, high inflation in
Egypt is expected to continue in the following three years, with estimates of 9.5% in 2015, 8.7% in
2016 and 9.0% in 2017 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Management believes
that high inflation rates combined with the relative absence of other investment opportunities should
encourage investment in quality real estate properties as a hedge against inflation.
• Increasing demand for premium residential properties. Management believes that Egypt’s attractive
demographic characteristics combined with increasing levels of disposable income will drive demand
for premium quality housing in and around Cairo as well as secondary homes located in attractive
locations on the North Coast, a segment that Emaar Misr targets through Project Marassi. Personal
disposable income (after taxes and deductions) in Egypt is expected to grow at a compound annual
growth rate of 13% between 2015 and 2017 compared to 10% from 2009 to 2014 (source: Economist
Intelligence Unit, February 2015). The favourable prospects for residential development are further
supported by the gradual increase in mortgage finance availability, which may increase the
accessibility of residential housing.
• Underserved retail market coupled with limited quality of offerings. The supply of high-quality retail
space in Cairo remains considerably limited with only 0.07 square metres of retail space per capita in
2013 and is significantly lower than other major cities in the MENA region (source: DTZ as of 2013).
By 2018, the GLA per capita in Cairo is expected to increase to 0.15 square metres per capita
reflecting an increase in purchasing power of the local population (source: DTZ, March 2015). Emaar
Misr intends to increase its presence in the retail segment going forward in an attempt to capitalise on

2
unmet demand for high-quality retail space. Management’s development plans encompass a target of
more than 250,000 square metres of retail GLA.
• Attractive prospects for office space. Although Management believes that office space has historically
been undersupplied in Egypt, economic growth in the country is expected to support long-term tenant
demand. According to Jones Lang LaSalle, Cairo’s office stock GLA in the fourth quarter of 2014 was
0.9 million square metres which is lower than in most other countries in the MENA region. The
market for office space has historically been concentrated in downtown Cairo with no recognised
central business district. Furthermore, the lack of office supply has led to the transformation of
previously residential properties into office space. Management believes that Emaar Misr is well
positioned to capture growth opportunities in this sector due to the strategic location of its projects in
and around Cairo where companies continue to search for new land plots to develop adjacent to
major transportation hubs. Management’s development plans encompass a target of more than
150,000 square metres of office GLA.
• Growing hospitality segment. Leveraging on the expected increase in demand for premium quality
hotels, secondary homes and growth of the internal and external tourism industry, Management’s
development plans include a target of 15 hotels, comprising approximately 4,000 hotel room keys and
serviced and branded apartments, most of which are expected to be part of Project Marassi located on
the North Coast. Emaar Misr intends to increase its investments in this segment where Management
believes there are significant growth opportunities.

Business model focused on integrated master plans supported by robust project development processes
Emaar Misr’s business model is to develop premium-quality master-planned lifestyle communities in prime
locations that are anchored by landmark developments. Management believes that Emaar Misr’s product
offering is differentiated by the quality and design of its projects combined with the flexibility under its
master plans to modify its projects, including the mix of properties, on an on-going basis in order to adapt
to prevailing and changing market trends and customers’ preferences.
• Rare offer of a dynamic portfolio of premium-quality move-in ready residential properties. Emaar Misr
offers premium-quality, fully-finished and move-in ready residential units (including apartments, twin
houses, town houses and villas) that cater to differing needs and various consumer price levels.
Management believes that this is a rare offer in the Egyptian real estate market currently dominated
by semi-finished residential properties.
• Anchored by landmark developments. Each project is designed to be anchored by a landmark
development comprising a wide range of amenities, such as golf courses, golf club houses, community
centres, central parks, sports and leisure centres, schools and medical centres, thereby creating
self-contained, fully-integrated master-planned lifestyle communities.
• Combined with robust project development processes across all stages of a project life cycle. Emaar Misr
relies on a well-proven and efficient development process from the initial stages of opportunity
identification to the delivery and completion of a project that is underpinned by an internal
operational structure designed to emphasise accountability and quality control. Throughout the
master planning phase, Emaar Misr focuses on delivering premium quality products consistent with
the Emaar brand name. As part of this process, Emaar Misr centralises the design and tender phases
with the aim of creating economies of scale that improve value across all of its projects. Emaar Misr
coordinates the launch of residential units with retail and office space, gradually increasing the supply
of residential properties to allow for the appreciation of home values and residential areas through
heightened visibility and availability of amenities. Following the delivery of residential units, Emaar
Misr retains control of the community and facility management function in order to manage the
customer experience and preserve the community environment.

Clearly differentiated portfolio of premium quality developments


Emaar Misr has a clearly differentiated portfolio of developments distributed among three projects under
development and a plot of undeveloped land.
• Project Uptown Cairo has the potential to become a new iconic city centre in Cairo. The project has
been designed by world-class architects and designers and is expected to be the only gated, integrated
community project in Central Cairo offering a wide range of amenities, including world-class shopping
centres, a business park, hotels, a spa, an 18-hole golf course and a club house. Project Uptown Cairo

3
will be home to Emaar Misr’s flagship development, Emaar Square, a world-class shopping,
residential, leisure and entertainment complex comprising an open-air retail mall and office space
designed to attract global brands and leading local and international companies, a five star and a
five-plus-star hotel, including the first ‘‘The Address’’ branded hotel in Cairo and a state-of-the-art
entertainment and leisure centre. See ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Projects under Development—
Project Uptown Cairo’’.
• Project Marassi is designed to feature a fully-integrated, exclusive resort community, retail space,
twelve anchor hotels, including three boutique hotels, an 18-hole golf course with a golf academy and
clubhouse and a 250 slip yacht international Marina inspired by the French Riviera which, due to its
unique location and features, is difficult to replicate in the region and is therefore expected to
transform the area into a premier international tourist destination. The Marassi Marina is designed to
be integrated with customs and immigration approvals for ease of access and benefits from a unique
location and unmatched climate along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the Mediterranean. See
‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Projects under Development—Project Marassi’’.
• Project Mivida is designed as a community development with environmentally friendly components
and green landscapes and amenities that are planned to cover more than 80% of the project’s land.
Project Mivida is designed to feature Mivida Downtown, a boulevard shopping area featuring
international and local brands strategically located in the centre of New Cairo City. Mivida Downtown
is designed to comprise wide pedestrian streets, water features, full spectrum dining and easy
accessibility to the town centre with multiple access points combining to provide an unrivalled
experience to visitors. See ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Projects under Development—Project Mivida’’.

Retain most commercial assets to optimise future revenue streams and cash flows
Emaar Misr’s business model is to continue to build a portfolio of residential properties for sale while
growing its presence in the premium retail, hospitality and office segments through ownership of
investment properties that are leased to tenants. Premium quality retail and hospitality properties are
planned across all projects while office properties are planned for Project Uptown Cairo and Project
Mivida. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr has launched its first shopping mall
(MPorium in Project Marassi) and has sold serviced and branded apartments in Project Marassi.
Emaar Misr’s business model is designed to allow it to capture growth opportunities in different market
segments and, by retaining control over its commercial properties, to enable it to manage the mix of
occupants and retailers to better reflect consumer preferences and adapt to changes in the market.
Management believes that this strategy will improve the breadth and stability of Emaar Misr’s revenue
streams and cash flow in the medium term by including sustainable rental income, therefore allowing
Emaar Misr to achieve a more diversified revenue profile over the medium to long term.

Resilient and cash generative financial model


As of 31 March 2015, the cumulative number of residential units sold for future delivery and the number of
residential units delivered amounted to 4,676 and 1,850 (including serviced apartments), respectively. As of
31 March 2015, cumulative net sales since inception amounted to EGP 23.9 billion, the cumulative amount
of collections amounted to EGP 11.0 billion and the cumulative amount of revenue amounted to
EGP 6.1 billion. Emaar Misr’s net sales, revenue and collections increased in 2012, 2013 and 2014 despite
recent political and economic changes in Egypt. Management believes that the decision to continue
construction and development across all projects during that time further enhanced Emaar Misr’s
credibility in the local market and reinforced its position as a leading real estate developer in Egypt while
providing it with the ability to achieve favourable pricing of its properties.
Emaar Misr’s net sales for the three months ended 31 March 2015 were EGP 2.0 billion compared to
EGP 1.0 billion for the three months ended 31 March 2014. Emaar Misr’s net sales for 2014 amounted to
EGP 7.1 billion, an increase of 71% compared to EGP 4.2 billion in 2013 and EGP 3.3 billion in 2012. In a
market sample comparing Emaar Misr to certain listed Egyptian real estate developers, Emaar Misr’s
share of total new net sales in Egypt grew from 10% in 2010 to 36% in 2014, which represents an
EGP 6.0 billion increase in Emaar Misr’s total new net sales in a market sample that grew by
EGP 8.7 billion. The strength and resilience of Emaar Misr’s brand is shown by the low number of
cancellations relative to annual net sales, with only EGP 32.4 million in cancellations compared to
EGP 2.0 billion in net sales for the three months ended 31 March 2015.

4
Emaar Misr’s total revenue amounted to EGP 751.5 million for the three months ended 31 March 2015,
EGP 2.6 billion for the year ended 31 December 2014, EGP 1.2 billion for the year ended 31 December
2013 and EGP 0.8 billion for the year ended 31 December 2012. Gross margin was 30.0% for the three
months ended 31 March 2015 and 29.8%, 34.5% and 28.1% for the years ended 31 December 2014, 2013
and 2012, respectively.
Emaar Misr’s cash flow management supports residential development funding in an efficient manner. It is
based on an off-plan sales model that is designed to provide Emaar Misr with cash inflow prior to the
commencement of construction combined with a coordinated phasing strategy aimed at timing the launch
and completion of its residential properties with the roll-out of retail, office and hospitality properties and
other amenities. As part of this business model, Emaar Misr develops infrastructure as an initial step in
development, including site grading, roads and utility networks, and combines it with the launch of certain
amenities at an early stage, which are designed to have a positive impact on the demand for and value of
the residential properties over time. For example, the beach club in Project Marassi and the golf clubhouse
in Project Uptown Cairo were completed prior to the delivery of the first residential units, allowing
prospective buyers to experience the quality of those amenities. Management believes that this approach
had a positive impact on the demand for residential units in those projects.

Dedicated and experienced management team


The senior management team of Emaar Misr is comprised of experienced and dedicated professionals who
possess a deep understanding of, and significant experience in, the Egyptian real estate market, led by
Mohamed El Dahan, its Managing Director, who joined Emaar Properties in 2005 and has experience in
the real estate, construction, financial and banking industries across the region. Members of the senior
management team are long-standing employees of Emaar Misr and/or Emaar Properties and are
committed to the development and success of Emaar Misr’s business. Emaar Misr uses a management
incentive program that links performance to compensation based on specific key performance indicators.
Many of the members of the senior management team accumulated significant knowledge and expertise
through involvement in all of Emaar Properties’ major projects, such as Burj Khalifa, The Dubai Mall and
‘‘The Address’’ hotels. Emaar Misr’s senior management team oversees and manages the operations at all
stages of the project life cycle. Emaar Misr also intends to adopt certain international corporate
governance practices, including independent directorships and a relationship agreement with Emaar
Properties and service agreements with some of Emaar Properties’ affiliates. See ‘‘Certain Relationships
and Related Party Transactions—Relationship Agreement’’ and ‘‘Certain Relationships and Related Party
Transactions—Service Agreements’’.

Benefit from ownership by the premier Middle Eastern developer


Management believes that Emaar Misr’s association with Emaar Properties, its controlling shareholder
and a leading real estate developer with cross-asset class expertise in the MENA region, is one of Emaar
Misr’s competitive advantages. Emaar Properties has led Emaar Misr through significant growth since 2005
during which time it provided Emaar Misr with highly valuable support, know-how, expertise and business
planning at each level of the project development life cycle, including distinctive development concepts,
premium quality properties, sophisticated planning and quality controls from the design phase through the
property management and maintenance phases. Emaar Properties’ reputation and experience are based on
its development of some of the most significant master-planned projects in the UAE, including Downtown
Dubai, Burj Khalifa, BLVD Heights, ‘‘The Address Dubai’’, Armani Hotel in Dubai, Arabian Ranches,
Emirates Living and Dubai Marina. These successful urban and resort destinations each contribute to
Emaar Properties’ status as one of the largest real estate developers globally by market capitalisation.
Following the Combined Offering, Emaar Misr expects to continue to benefit from the support and
expertise of Emaar Properties, which will remain Emaar Misr’s controlling shareholder. Furthermore,
Management believes that the long-standing experience and know-how of Emaar Malls Group (owner and
operator of Dubai Mall, the world’s largest shopping and entertainment destination and a member of the
Emaar Group) and Emaar Retail Group will be instrumental in developing and operating Emaar Misr’s
retail properties in Project Uptown Cairo and Mivida. Management also believes that the track record,
experience, brand name and operational excellence of Emaar Hospitality Group will provide strategic
value to the development and operations of ‘‘The Address’’ and ‘‘Vida’’ hotels across Emaar Misr’s
projects.

5
Strategy
Emaar Misr’s vision is to become Egypt’s premier lifestyle community provider, through developing world-
class projects to fulfil the aspirations of its customer base. Emaar Misr’s aim is to continue to maintain a
strong market position while increasing revenue and profitability. Emaar Misr intends to pursue the
following business and growth strategies.

Customer centric strategy


Emaar Misr’s philosophy is to focus on its customers as a top priority. As part of this customer-centric
strategy, Emaar Misr will seek to prioritise customer satisfaction through delivery of premium-quality
projects that respond to the particular needs of its customers combined with dedication to customer
service. Emaar Misr intends to continue to collect marketing information about target customer
demographics and tenants into a sophisticated database and to use this information to build long-term
relationships with its customers. Information about prospective buyers and tenants is sourced from Emaar
Misr’s own selling experience and through effective marketing tools including walkout surveys, market
research and best seller and slow mover studies in order to allow Emaar Misr to tailor master plans and
designs while providing a sense of exclusivity and creating new lifestyle standards. Following delivery of the
residential units, Emaar Misr will continue to maintain robust facility management and controls in order to
preserve the high-quality customer experience and the community atmosphere.

Introducing innovative products and concepts


Emaar Misr’s master plans are not constrained by a particular design, model or product which, combined
with the flexibility provided by the dynamic phasing-in of amenities and residential units and the
application of best practices in the local market, enables Emaar Misr to be more innovative, creative and
flexible in designing and executing its projects over time. Emaar Misr’s record of innovation includes
Project Uptown Cairo, which is designed as the first mixed-use gated project in Central Cairo and will
comprise Emaar Square which is expected to be Egypt’s first and largest outdoor retail and lifestyle venue.
Project Mivida is designed as a community development with environmentally friendly components and
green landscapes and amenities that are planned to cover a significant part of the project’s land. In Project
Marassi, Emaar Misr has constructed two swimmable spots between the villages and is currently designing
swimmable lagoons in villages Verdi and Blanca, and a year-round 250 slip yacht marina on the North
Coast.

Maximising value from its property portfolio through dynamic phasing of launches
Emaar Misr intends to continue to implement a coordinated phasing strategy aimed at timing the launch
and completion of its residential properties with the roll-out of retail, office and hospitality properties and
other amenities, thereby allowing for a faster creation of thriving, fully integrated and self-contained
lifestyle communities. As part of this strategy, Emaar Misr intends to continue to sell fully-finished,
move-in ready residential properties in small units comprising completed villages and parcels within its
projects which are expected to act as a catalyst for incremental leasing demand through increased property
foot traffic in the projects. Furthermore, Emaar Misr plans to continue to launch certain amenities at an
early stage with the aim of having a positive impact on the demand for and value of the residential
properties over time while also building sales momentum. Management believes that the phasing strategy
will provide Emaar Misr with the flexibility needed to respond efficiently to changes in the Egyptian real
estate market and changing consumer preferences by allowing Emaar Misr to tailor its products.

Adherence to premium quality standards


Emaar Misr plans to further establish and maintain its strong market position and brand image by
continuing to develop and construct premium residential and commercial real estate and equate the
quality of both with Emaar Misr’s brand name. Management believes that Emaar Misr’s brand name in
Egypt is a key differentiating factor and central to maintaining customer trust and loyalty. In order to
ensure that its properties and designs are of the highest standards, Emaar Misr plans to continue to engage
carefully selected international and regional architects, designers, planners, engineers and contractors
whom Management believes are at the forefront of the industry in terms of ability to create innovative and
differentiated project designs. Management intends to select renowned global brands and leading local and
international companies as tenants for its retail and office properties, as well as premium hospitality
operators, with the aim of ensuring that its developments feature premium quality services and amenities.

6
The commitment to deliver premium quality properties is supported through rigorous internal quality
management standards and procedures that Emaar Misr applies at each stage of project execution,
including managing communities and facilities after construction of properties is completed.

Retaining control of commercial assets


While historically the residential segment has been the core and primary focus of Emaar Misr, in the future
Emaar Misr intends to retain the ownership and lease the majority of its retail, office and hospitality assets,
including schools and hospitals while preserving flexibility to sell selected commercial assets depending on
prevailing market conditions. This strategy is designed to allow Emaar Misr to diversify its income streams
and improve cash flows by generating recurring rental income from commercial properties while retaining
quality control over its amenities. Emaar Misr’s target contribution from rental income is approximately
30-40% of total revenue. Emaar Misr expects that its effective management of commercial properties may
further appreciate residential property values.
In the medium to long term, Emaar Misr intends to develop more than:
• 6.2 million square metres of total GFA across all of its projects,
• 250,000 square metres of retail GLA across all of its projects,
• 150,000 square metres of office GLA in Project Uptown Cairo and Project Mivida, and
• 15 hotels, representing approximately 4,000 hotel room keys and branded and serviced apartments
across all of its projects.
In order to implement this strategy, Emaar Misr intends to rely on its strong market position, brand image,
execution capabilities, skills and a track record of successful sales as well as expertise and know-how of
Emaar Malls and Emaar Hospitality Group to seek leading global brands as anchor tenants for its projects.

Disciplined and highly selective approach to additional land bank acquisitions


Emaar Misr intends to continue to expand its land bank in Egypt through a disciplined approach of highly
selective acquisitions of large plots with opportunistic consideration of smaller high-quality locations that
Management believes would supplement Emaar Misr’s current portfolio and have the potential of
generating attractive revenue. As part of this strategy, Emaar Misr is currently participating in auctions and
exploring other potential land acquisitions and development opportunities that fit its investment criteria.
Emaar Misr’s main focus is the immediate development of its existing land bank with speculative
additional acquisitions limited to exceptional opportunities. As part of this strategy, Emaar Misr intends to
focus on opportunities that can achieve a target levered project internal rate of return of approximately
16% and an achievable minimum gross margin of approximately 25%, with particular attention to the
availability of Cairo-based land plots. See ‘‘Important Note Regarding the Target Rates of Return’’. For such
acquisitions, Emaar Misr may selectively consider entering into joint ventures or revenue sharing projects,
while maintaining full management control over the projects.
Management believes that Emaar Misr has developed a rigorous, disciplined and highly selective land
acquisition methodology. Rooted in an analytical approach to decision making, the methodology
emphasises risk identification and mitigation, and screens for fundamental asset value with a high
risk-adjusted return potential. It is designed to enable Management to identify, evaluate and act upon land

RISK FACTORS
An investment in the Company involves a high degree of risk. Potential investors should carefully consider the
risks described below, together with the information contained in this Offering Memorandum, before deciding to
purchase Institutional Offering Shares. Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects, and the actual outcomes of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made in this Offering
Memorandum, could be adversely affected by any of the risks described below individually or collectively. In
such case, the trading price of the Ordinary Shares could decline and purchasers of Institutional Offering Shares
could lose all or part of their investment.
The risks and uncertainties that Management currently believes are material are described below. However, these
risks and uncertainties may not be the only ones faced by Emaar Misr. Additional risks and uncertainties,
including those currently unknown to Management, or that Management currently deems immaterial, could
have an adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
The risks and uncertainties presented below are subject to contingencies which may or may not occur. The order
in which the risk and uncertainties are presented below does not reflect order of importance, likelihood of
occurrence or materiality. Prospective investors should carefully review the entire Offering Memorandum and
should form their own views before making any investment decision.

Risks Relating to Emaar Misr’s Business and Industry


Emaar Misr’s real estate assets and projects are subject to certain significant risks relating to real property.
There are a number of factors that commonly affect the real estate development industry, many of which
are beyond Emaar Misr’s control, and which could adversely affect the economic performance and value of
Emaar Misr’s real estate assets and projects. Such factors include, among others:
• Changes in political, social and economic conditions in Egypt and the MENA region (see ‘‘—Risks
Relating to Egypt and the MENA Region’’ below).
• General industry trends, including the cyclical nature of the real estate market.
• Changes in local market conditions, such as a reduction in demand for real estate or changes in local
tastes and perceptions as to the attractiveness, quality, comfort, safety and location of particular
projects.
• The quality and proximity of competition presented by other residential, retail, commercial and
hospitality real estate developers, which may diminish opportunities for acquiring desired properties
or sites on favourable terms or at all, as well as diminish sales increasing or decreasing land property
prices.
• The attractiveness of the properties to residential purchasers, commercial tenants, tourists and retail
customers.
• Constraints on growth in demand for new housing due to changes in interest rates and inflation, and
the limited availability of financing, including the underdeveloped status of the mortgage lending
market in Egypt.
• Government actions and administrative decisions against Emaar Misr’s properties, including
renegotiations of, or challenges to, the validity of certain clauses in agreements entered into with the
Egyptian government.
• Covenants, conditions, restrictions and easements relating to the properties or their use.
• Changes in laws, regulations or government policies (including those relating to financing,
environmental usage, health and safety, tax (including property tax) and insurance), which increase
the costs of complying with such laws, regulations or policies and changes in town planning and zoning
regulations or the interpretation or application thereof.
• Energy supply shortages and disruptions, utility supply shortages and delays in connecting to national
utility grids.
• Force majeure and acts of nature, such as earthquakes or rock slides that may damage the properties
or delay their development and have a negative reputational effect.
• Failure of Emaar Misr’s operational and technology systems.

14
These factors could cause fluctuations in the value of real estate assets, rental income or operating
expenses, causing a negative effect on the operating returns derived from, and the value of, real estate
investments. Any adverse change in one or more of these general factors or in any of the factors described
in further detail below could have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition,
results of operations and prospects.

Emaar Misr’s real estate assets and projects are subject to additional development, planning and construction risks.
Real estate development, construction and acquisition activities are subject to additional risks, many of
which are beyond Emaar Misr’s control, including delay, ability to complete projects within the required
timeframe and financial loss, and which could adversely affect the economic performance and value of
Emaar Misr’s real estate assets. These risks are due to, among others:
• Failure to generate a sufficient level of pre-sales to finance project construction and costs overruns
that exceed original estimates due to increased costs of materials, labour, other construction inputs
and other factors. Such cost increases could make the completion of a project uneconomical as Emaar
Misr may not be able to increase sales prices of units or rental rates for pre-sold or pre-let units to
mitigate increases in construction costs.
• Inability to timely complete construction, sales or leasing of a property, particularly given the relative
size and complexity of the projects. Such inability may result in the breach or termination of the
Company’s existing preliminary sales contracts with the Egyptian government, the termination of
Emaar Misr’s ownership rights in respect of the land or claims for damages.
• Inability to adapt project phases to cater to changes in market tastes and preferences.
• Risks relating to project delays due to defaults by customers on post-dated cheques delivered at the
time of unit purchases in the event that Emaar Misr is not then able to vacate the units (if already
delivered) and re-sell such units and Emaar Misr’s credit facilities are unavailable or insufficient to
cover any shortfall in funding of project costs.
• Risks relating to construction activity at properties, including shortages of materials and other
construction inputs (including, among others, cement, steel, energy and other utilities), the imposition
of liens on materials, defects in materials or poor workmanship of third-party contractors.
• Potential title or other defects in acquired land plots, including latent defects that may not be revealed
until many years after a property is developed and legal proceedings relating thereto.
• Potential delays in obtaining, or failure to obtain, all necessary land use, environmental, building,
occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorisations, including investment
contracts with local and regional authorities.
• Fluctuation in occupancy rates and rents at newly completed properties due to a number of factors,
including market and economic conditions.
• Potential liabilities and proceedings relating to acquired land, properties or entities owning properties
for which a company may have limited recourse.
• Limited availability of energy and other utilities, adequate transportation and utility infrastructure.
• Obligations relating to the preservation and protection of the environment and the historic and
cultural heritage of Egypt.
• Bankruptcy or insolvency of contractors, suppliers and other counterparties.
• Failure to sell or lease properties within budgeted limits, reducing the profitability of a project.
• Potential liabilities and proceedings relating to materials used, warranties and guarantees given for the
quality of construction work performed subsequent to the date on which the project was transferred to
the customer.
Any adverse change in one or more of these factors could have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s
reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Developers, including Emaar Misr, face legal complexities and uncertainties in obtaining, retaining and enforcing
title to land in Egypt.
Emaar Misr has historically acquired the majority of its land from the Egyptian government and State-
owned enterprises.
Land acquisition from the government typically includes an initial grace period followed by regular interim
payments until the full purchase price has been paid. Pending payment of the full purchase price, the land
is allocated to a developer by the Egyptian government pursuant to a land allocation decree and
preliminary sales contract. Under the preliminary sales contract, the developer agrees to develop the land
in accordance with a development plan, certain project specifications and other conditions specified under
the preliminary sales contract and land allocation decree. The Egyptian government only transfers title to
the land when the developer has completed development in accordance with the foregoing.
A failure by Emaar Misr to comply with the development conditions or other terms of the land allocation
decree and preliminary sales contract could result in the Egyptian government or State-owned companies
reducing the size of the land allocated to Emaar Misr or rescinding the preliminary sales contract. Emaar
Misr, as is the case with other real estate developers in Egypt, is often subject to additional obligations in
the form of administrative fees or development requirements that are imposed arbitrarily by the State or
relevant regulatory authorities beyond those contractual obligations initially stipulated in the preliminary
sales contract or allocation decree, which could result in higher than expected costs for any particular
project.
The process to register title in Egypt is bureaucratic, lengthy and complicated and normally faces
administrative challenges and conflicting governmental decrees or orders that may result in delaying or
suspending the registration of title process. These challenges usually increase with large scale development
projects due to the size of the land. Moreover, due to the complexity of recording historical changes to the
legal status of land in the relevant Egyptian land registries, data in these registries is commonly not
updated upon the purchase or sale of land. Although registration of title in Egypt is not presently required
in order to transfer personal rights or possession rights, it is essential to confer title to land in order to be
enforceable vis-à-vis third parties. As a result of inconsistencies and inaccuracies in the land registration
system, transferring title to either Emaar Misr or the purchasers of residential units in its developments
may be delayed or suspended.
A number of recent court judgments have been passed ordering the State to reverse privatisation
transactions and, in some cases, agreements entered into between the State and private companies or
administrative decisions issued by the State. This resulted in certain cases of renegotiation by the State of
the relevant contracts or administrative decision. However, a new law was passed in 2014 regulating the
right of third parties to challenge contracts signed between the State or State-owned entities and private
persons or entities. This new law restricts the right of third parties to challenge such contracts before the
courts unless corruption has been established by a criminal court judgment. This law has been challenged
as unconstitutional on the basis that it restricts the right to sue. If the Egyptian supreme court upholds the
constitutionality of this law, the risk of reversing privatisation transactions will be reduced. However, if the
Egyptian supreme court finds this law to be unconstitutional, there is no guarantee that the courts will not
accept claims seeking to reverse such privatisation transactions or that the State will not as a result seek to
renegotiate the related contracts.
As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr is in the process of registering title to the land
on which Project Uptown and Project Marassi are located. Management will seek to register title for
Project Mivida once the last land instalments have been fully paid and will seek to register title for the land
on which Cairo Gate is planned once it has resolved change of ownership approvals, change of object fees
and registration fees with Egyptian authorities. For more information, see ‘‘Material Contracts—Land and
Property Contracts’’ and ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Legal Proceedings’’.
These legal complexities and uncertainties regarding the right of Emaar Misr to obtain title to the land
underlying its projects could have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition,
results of operations and prospects.

Construction operations and properties are subject to extensive laws, regulations, standards and licences.
Emaar Misr’s construction operations and properties are subject to regulation by various governmental
entities and agencies in connection with obtaining and renewing various licences, permits, approvals and
authorisations as well as with on-going compliance with existing, amended and new laws, regulations and

16
standards relating to fire and safety requirements, building codes, environmental regulations, land use
restrictions, social housing and property taxes and to certain conditions in place under various land
allocation decrees and preliminary sale contracts. Because of the complexities involved in procuring and
maintaining numerous licences and permits, there can be no assurance that Emaar Misr will at all times be
in compliance with all of the requirements imposed on its properties.
The planning and approval process for new real estate development projects involves uncertainty. For any
project being developed in Egypt, the architectural and detailed project design must be approved by
several administrative bodies within the appropriate government agency. In addition, each project must
receive administrative approvals from various governmental agencies, including the fire, health and safety,
environmental protection and sanitary departments, as well as technical approvals from various utility
providers, including electricity, gas and sewage services. Construction without a valid construction permit is
a violation of law and, currently, the Egyptian government is taking steps to enhance monitoring in this
field. The Egyptian government often attaches, and may in the future attach additional, conditions and
requirements to the award of sales contracts or to the sale and transfer of land or may enact new or amend
existing laws and regulations, which may affect Emaar Misr’s properties. For example, virtually all
developers, including Emaar Misr, advertise projects located on land purchased from the Egyptian New
Urban Communities Authority (‘‘NUCA’’) prior to completion of construction of such projects, which may
not comply with the terms of NUCA decrees allocating such land.
A failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or to obtain and maintain requisite approvals,
certifications, permits and licences, whether intentional or unintentional, could lead to significant
governmental fines, penalties, injunctions, formal decrees or orders and adverse private damages awards,
and negative publicity. In addition, any adverse publicity resulting from any such non-compliance,
particularly as regards the safety of the leisure and entertainment venues located in Emaar Misr’s
properties, could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations
and prospects.

Emaar Misr operates in a highly competitive environment and competition may intensify in the local market.
The real estate industry and the retail real estate market in Egypt are highly competitive. Emaar Misr faces
intense competition from other developers and operators of residential, retail, commercial and hospitality
properties in Egypt, many of whom own properties similar to and located near Emaar Misr’s properties. In
addition, Emaar Misr’s projects may face increased competition due to the movement of tenants to new
satellite cities, such as Egypt’s planned new Capital City, where Emaar Misr may not be as successful as
other developers in acquiring attractive locations on favourable terms or at all. Some of Emaar Misr’s
competitors are well capitalised and have significant financial, marketing and other resources that may be
greater than Emaar Misr’s. Some also have larger land banks and a longer track record, as Emaar Misr is a
relatively new entrant into Egypt and is the only non-domestic developer among the major real estate
developers in Egypt.
Competition among property developers and retail operators may result in increased costs for the
acquisition of land for development, increased costs for raw materials, shortages of skilled contractors,
oversupply of properties and/or saturation of certain market segments, reduced rental rates for commercial
use or discounted stay rates for hospitality accommodations, decrease in property prices, a slowdown in the
rate at which new property developments will be approved and/or reviewed by the relevant government
authorities and an increase in administrative costs for hiring or retaining qualified personnel, any of which
may adversely affect Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Furthermore, property developers or retail operators that are better capitalised than Emaar Misr may be
more competitive in acquiring land through the auction process. Emaar Misr may lose existing or potential
customers and tenants and may be pressured to reduce sales prices or stay and rental rates or to offer other
incentives, including rent abatements, early termination rights, below-market renewal, additional amenities
and expanded hospitality services. New entrants into the Egyptian real estate development market or the
retail market, including non-Egyptian entrants, may be successful in acquiring prime real estate and may
vigorously compete with Emaar Misr in developing properties in Egypt. If Emaar Misr fails to respond to
changes in market conditions as promptly and effectively as its competitors, any of these factors could have
a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects.

17
Emaar Misr’s future rental revenues will depend upon its ability to successfully implement its business strategy to
find tenants for its investment properties.
Historically, Emaar Misr’s business activity has been focused on real estate development in Egypt and its
revenues have been almost entirely derived from the sale of residential properties developed by it. As part
of its strategy, going forward Emaar Misr intends to diversify its revenue streams through the retention of
investment properties. These will primarily consist of retail properties as well as office and hospitality
properties and will largely be located in Emaar Misr’s landmark developments in its fully-integrated
master-planned lifestyle communities. The total GLA of retail properties across all projects is expected to
be more than 250,000 square metres. The total GLA of office properties across all projects is expected to
be more than 150,000 square metres. The total number of hotels across all projects is expected to be 15
with approximately 4,000 hotel room keys (including serviced and branded apartments).
Emaar Misr’s ability to successfully implement this strategy is subject to a variety of factors, many of which
are beyond its control. Emaar Misr’s business strategy is based on certain assumptions, including an
anticipated increase in demand for high-quality retail and office space in Cairo reflecting an improving
economic environment and greater corporate confidence. If the assumptions regarding these trends prove
to be incorrect or the overall Egyptian economy worsens or does not recover in the future, Emaar Misr
may not successfully implement this strategy and may fail to collect anticipated rental and operating
revenues from those investment properties. For example, there can be no assurance that Emaar Misr will
be able to find suitable tenants, including anchor tenants and major retail groups, under the terms and
conditions it seeks, that it will be able to maintain satisfactory relationships with its tenants or that it will be
able to secure adequate occupancy rates at its properties on favourable terms or at all. Furthermore,
Emaar Misr’s results of operations and cash flows will be dependent on the tenants’ liquidity and financial
condition and their ability to meet financial obligations under their leases. The ability of the tenants to
operate their businesses and fulfil their obligations under the leases will depend, in part, upon the overall
profitability of their operations, which could be adversely impacted by a number of factors, many of which
will be beyond their control, including:
• A downturn in global, national or regional, political, social and economic conditions which may
generally affect consumer behaviour or tenants’ ability to pay rental rates.
• A change in the purchasing habits of consumers in the region surrounding a development or from
tourists visiting the region.
• A shift to a preference for online shopping.
• A change in market conditions such as an oversupply of retail or commercial space, including
available space for sublease or construction.
• An increase in competition from other properties.
• A change in laws, regulations or controls affecting rental rates, prices of goods, interest rates and fuel
or energy consumption.
In order to retain tenants and attract new tenants, Emaar Misr may also be required to offer rent
concessions, lease incentives and other terms in its lease contracts that make such leases less favourable. In
addition, anchor tenants and large retail groups often have significant bargaining power when negotiating
rent and other lease terms. Emaar Misr may not be successful in maintaining or increasing occupancy rates
or successfully negotiating favourable terms and conditions in its leases. In addition, Emaar Misr may incur
costs in enforcing rights under the lease of a defaulting tenant, including eviction and re-leasing costs.
Furthermore, if the tenants decide not to renew their leases upon expiration, Emaar Misr may not be able
to re-let their space on terms as favourable as those contained in the previous lease, if at all. If tenants do
not renew their leases, Emaar Misr may need to expend significant time and money in attracting
replacement tenants. Any of the foregoing factors may reduce Emaar Misr’s cash flow and have a material
adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The hotel and resort industries are subject to certain general risks.
Emaar Misr plans to build 15 hotels with approximately 4,000 room keys across its projects and a resort in
Project Marassi, all of which will be owned by Emaar Misr and operated by hotel operators. As of the date
of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr operates only one hotel with 130 keys and 14 villas in Project
Marassi. A number of factors, many of which are common to the hotel and resort industries and are

18
beyond Emaar Misr’s control, could adversely affect the economic performance and value of Emaar Misr’s
hotels in the future. Such factors include, among others:
• Dependence on levels of business, commercial and leisure travellers and tourism in Egypt.
• Dependence on group and meeting/conference business.
• The impact of acts of war or increased tensions between certain countries, increased terrorism threats,
terrorist events, impediments to means of transportation (including airline strikes, road closures and
border closures), extreme weather conditions, natural disasters, outbreaks of diseases and health
concerns, rising fuel costs or other factors that may affect travel patterns and reduce the number of
business and leisure travellers;
• Adverse effects of international market conditions, which may diminish the demand for first class and
luxury leisure travel or the need for business travel, as well as national, regional and local political,
economic and market conditions where Emaar Misr’s hotels and resorts operate and where its
customers live;
• Increases in operating costs due to inflation, labour costs, utility costs (including energy costs),
increased taxes and insurance costs, as well as unanticipated costs such as acts of nature and their
consequences and other factors that may not be offset by increased room rates;
• Seasonality, in that hotels and resorts located in Egypt may operate at reduced levels of revenue
during varying seasons;
• Changes in interest rates and in the availability, cost and terms of debt financing;
• Changes in governmental laws and regulations (including trade restrictions), fiscal policies and zoning
ordinances and the related costs of compliance; and
• Risks relating to project delays due to defaults by customers on post-dated cheques delivered at the
time of serviced apartment purchases in the event that Emaar Misr is not then able to vacate the units
(if already delivered) and re-sell such serviced apartments and Emaar Misr’s credit facilities are
unavailable or insufficient to cover any shortfall in funding of project costs.
These factors could have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, results of operations,
financial conditions and prospects.

Emaar Misr has relied in the past, and will continue to rely, on third parties to design, complete and manage its
projects.
Emaar Misr relies on third parties, including designers, planners, consultants, managers and contractors, at
all stages of the project development life cycle. In particular, Emaar Misr does not maintain an in-house
construction team and relies on third-party contractors to undertake all construction works. In addition,
Emaar Misr intends to outsource some services relating to the retail, commercial and hospitality properties
to third-party contractors, including housekeeping, general building maintenance, pest control, lift and
elevator maintenance, fire and smoke detection, curtain system and fire-fighting management, and security
service and waste management.
The third-party contractors providing these services must be appropriately skilled and knowledgeable to
provide a high-quality service and may require licences or permits to carry out these services. In particular,
a failure of building contractors to construct development projects on schedule or a failure of suppliers to
deliver defect-free construction materials could delay completion of projects or negatively affect the
quality of those projects. If Emaar Misr’s relationship with a contractor deteriorates, or if a contractor
becomes insolvent or is otherwise unable to satisfy its contractual obligations, Emaar Misr would have to
appoint new contractors. There can be no assurance that a successor contractor could be found with the
requisite skills, knowledge, approvals, licences, resources and willingness to perform the services for a
commercially reasonable fee or at all. If this occurs, Emaar Misr’s business, results of operations, financial
conditions and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

19
Emaar Misr’s future cash flows and revenue will be influenced by the schedule of launches, pre-sale, sale and
delivery of residential properties which may fluctuate over time.
Historically, substantially all of Emaar Misr’s revenue has been derived from the sale and delivery of
residential properties. The properties are developed in multiple phases over several years and the sale of
properties typically starts a few years ahead of the delivery date and is not concurrent with the completion
of construction works. See ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Project Life Cycle—Sales and Leasing Terms and
Financing Arrangements’’. Although the delivery of residential units at all three projects under development
has already started, the expected construction completion dates are 2021 for Project Mivida, 2024 for
Project Marassi and 2026 for Project Uptown Cairo. As a result, Emaar Misr’s future cash flows and
revenue will be influenced by the schedule of launches, pre-sale, sale and delivery of Emaar Misr’s
residential properties. However, actual sales and revenue may vary due to various factors, including the
political, social and economic conditions, general market conditions, competition, the level of acceptance
of the properties by the customers, the timing of pre-sales and sales and Emaar Misr’s revenue recognition
policies.
According to Emaar Misr’s revenue recognition policy, revenue from sales of residential properties is
recognised at the time of delivery of the property to the purchaser. Since pre-sales of residential properties
are not concurrent with the completion of construction works, Emaar Misr’s revenue and GFA sales may
not be recognised in the same period. Consequently, Emaar Misr’s financial results of operations for a
given period may be neither indicative of the actual demand for its properties nor the total sales it achieved
during such period.

Emaar Misr is dependent upon its Board of Directors, senior management team and certain key employees.
Emaar Misr’s business model and the execution of its business strategy is dependent upon the efforts,
skills, reputation and business contacts of the members of its Board of Directors, senior management team
and other key employees, the information and deal flow they and others generate during the normal course
of their activities and the synergies among the diverse fields of expertise and knowledge held by its
professionals. These individuals are not obligated to remain employed with Emaar Misr. The loss of the
services of any of the senior executives or key employees could delay or prevent Emaar Misr from
executing its business strategy. In addition, Emaar Misr does not maintain key employee life insurance
policies on its key employees. As a result, Emaar Misr may not be able to cover the financial loss it may
incur in losing the services of any members of the Board of Directors or senior management. Furthermore,
the Managing Director also serves as the chief executive officer of Emaar Saudi Arabia and Emaar Syria,
as discussed in ‘‘Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Cross Charges’’, and may face
conflicting demands on his time as Emaar Misr’s business grows.
Emaar Misr’s future business will also depend, in part, on its ability to retain, hire, motivate and develop
key personnel with relevant technical and industry expertise. Experienced technical, marketing and support
personnel in the real estate development industry are in high demand and competition for their talent is
intense. To attract and retain key personnel, Emaar Misr must ensure that all members of its staff are
sufficiently compensated, trained and integrated into its business. If Emaar Misr is unsuccessful in its
recruiting efforts or if it is unable to train, integrate or retain new and existing key personnel, it may be
unable to operate at current levels or grow its business. The loss of any of these key personnel may
materially adversely affect Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Emaar Misr would be affected by any damage to the ‘‘Emaar’’ brand.


Emaar Misr’s brand is closely associated with the broader ‘‘Emaar’’ brand, which is owned by Emaar
Properties and licenced to Emaar Misr. For further details relating to the licence arrangements with Emaar
Properties, see ‘‘Material Contracts—Licence Agreement with Emaar Properties’’. If Emaar Properties or any
other entities associated with the ‘‘Emaar’’ brand were to become the subject of public controversy or
negative publicity, this could reflect adversely on the reputation of the ‘‘Emaar’’ brand. Any harm to the
reputation of the ‘‘Emaar’’ brand could adversely affect the attractiveness of Emaar Misr’s properties and
development, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations
and financial condition.

20
Rapid growth and expansion may strain Emaar Misr’s managerial, financial and operational control systems.
The rapid development and establishment of Emaar Misr’s projects may raise unanticipated operational or
control risks going forward. Emaar Misr has experienced substantial growth since 2005 and Management
believes that its business will continue to grow at a relatively rapid rate for the foreseeable future.
As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr has three projects under development in
addition to a parcel of undeveloped land at Cairo Gate. The projects are developed in multiple phases over
several years and the sale of properties typically starts a few years ahead of the delivery date and is not
concurrent with the completion of construction works. The expected construction completion dates are
2021 for Project Mivida, 2024 for Project Marassi and 2026 for Project Uptown Cairo. See ‘‘Description of
Emaar Misr—Description of Projects’’. As a result, Emaar Misr will have to react and adapt to potentially
changing market demands as well as to potential changes in the Egyptian political, social and economic
climate during the periods over which these projects are developed. Succesful management of the growth
necessary to effectively execute these projects will require, among other things:
• development of financial and management controls and information technology systems and their
implementation in newly established or acquired assets;
• development of best practices and policies;
• development of logistical operations and supply chain management; and
• strong marketing activities.
Moreover, Emaar Misr has historically operated as a privately owned company. The operating complexities
of its business and the responsibilities of its Management have increased. As Emaar Misr expands its
operations and seeks additional growth opportunities, its internal controls will need to be adapted to allow
Emaar Misr to respond to the growing demands of its business. Although Emaar Misr currently has an
internal structure designed to deal with the complexities of its business and operations, it will need to
continue improving its financial controls and procedures to keep pace with its growth, to maintain robust
coordination between its business segments and personnel, and, as growth dictates, to hire additional
qualified personnel. Effective internal controls are necessary for Emaar Misr to produce reliable financial
reports and are important to help prevent fraud. As a result, if Emaar Misr fails to achieve and maintain
effective internal controls over financial reporting as its business grows, it could result in the loss of
investor confidence in the reliability of its financial statements.
Should Emaar Misr be unable to successfully manage the impact of rapid growth on its managerial,
financial and operational resources and control systems, this could have a material adverse effect on its
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Emaar Misr may be unable to locate and acquire land suitable for development at attractive prices and upon
favourable terms and conditions.
Emaar Misr’s future growth and profitability to date have been attributable, in part, to its ability to locate
and acquire land in attractive locations, at attractive prices and on favourable terms and conditions, and
the success of Emaar Misr’s business strategy and future profitability depends upon its continued ability to
do so. In the past, Emaar Misr has been able to acquire land suitable for different types of developments
and asset classes, including residential, retail, commercial and hospitality properties. Currently, Emaar
Misr has three large scale projects in development and one parcel of undeveloped land which Management
believes are located in desirable locations where sizeable areas of land for development are scarce.
However, there can be no assurance that in the future Emaar Misr will be able to continue to acquire land
in the sizes or locations suitable for development, at attractive prices or on favourable terms and
conditions. Any inability to identify and acquire sufficient sites for Emaar Misr’s land bank at commercially
acceptable prices, terms and conditions could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects.

Property valuation is inherently subjective and uncertain.


Valuation of property is inherently subjective due to the nature of each property, its location, the expected
future revenues from that particular property and different valuation assumptions and methodologies
adopted. Any such valuation is subject to a degree of uncertainty and may be made on the basis of
assumptions and methodologies which may not prove to be accurate, particularly in periods of volatility,
low transaction flow or restricted debt availability in the real estate market.

21
DTZ, an independent real estate appraiser, has valued certain of Emaar Misr’s properties and projects
using certain methodologies and assumptions. While Emaar Misr believes that the methodologies and
assumptions used by DTZ are reasonable and that there has been no material change to the aggregate
market value of its properties, the assumptions used may not be accurate. Accordingly, valuations based on
inaccurate assumptions may negatively affect the valuation of Emaar Misr’s properties. Moreover, the use
of different methodologies and assumptions would likely produce different valuation results. The valuation
report of DTZ included in this Offering Memorandum estimates the market value of Emaar Misr’s
projects as of 31 December 2014. However, since market movements after the date of any such valuations
and over the longer term may cause significant fluctuations in the value of the real estate, there can be no
assurance that a valuation report dated any other date would not produce different valuation results.
Details of the valuation methodologies used and the assumptions made by DTZ are described in Annex A
titled ‘‘Valuation Report’’ in this Offering Memorandum. Valuation methodologies and assumptions used,
which may result in valuations different from the market value of Emaar Misr’s properties, include (but are
not limited to) assumptions regarding the discount rates, market selling prices per square metre, exit
multiples, development timetable and phasing for each project, land, infrastructure and construction costs,
selling prices and cost escalation, rental prices and inflation thereof, costs of borrowing and taxation,
alongside assumptions on the condition of the properties, environmental matters, planning, title deeds and
other information. Therefore, the market values ascribed to the properties should not be taken as an
indication of the proceeds that Emaar Misr could achieve following the sale of any of its properties. To the
extent that valuations of Emaar Misr’s properties do not accurately reflect their market value, due to the
factors listed above and/or any other factors, this may have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

There can be no assurance that any targets, including Emaar Misr’s target levered project investment rates of
return, will be achieved.
Emaar Misr’s target levered project investment rates of return set out in this Offering Memorandum are
targets only (and for the avoidance of doubt are not profit forecasts). The target levered project investment
rates of return are intended primarily as a basis for recommending investments to the Board of Directors.
These targets reflect subjective judgments in many respects and thus are susceptible to multiple
interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business, economic, regulatory,
financial and other developments. There can be no assurance that such targets will be met or that Emaar
Misr will achieve or successfully implement its investment strategy. The actual results achieved by Emaar
Misr and its investments may vary from these targets, and these variations may be material and are subject
to risks and uncertainties described elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum.
Prospective investors should note that Emaar Misr’s target levered project investment rates of return are
target returns for Emaar Misr’s investments and not for Emaar Misr itself or for any investment in the
Institutional Offering Shares. Prospective investors should not place undue reliance on such target rates in
deciding whether to invest in the Institutional Offering Shares.

Emaar Misr’s insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover all potential losses it could suffer.
All of Emaar Misr’s current operations are conducted, and its assets are located, in Egypt, and accordingly
may be subject to higher political, social, economic and market risks when compared to similar operations
in countries in the European Union, the United States and other parts of the world. See ‘‘—Risks Relating
to Egypt and the MENA Region’’. While Emaar Misr maintains comprehensive coverage for general
liability, property, business interruption and other risks with respect to its properties and while its policies
offer features and limits which Management considers customary, no assurance can be given that coverage
will be available at reasonable rates.
Moreover, various types of catastrophic losses, like earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, nationalisations or
certain types of terrorism, may not be insurable or may not be economically insurable. Even when
insurable, these policies may have high deductibles, high premiums or may be deemed to fall outside of
coverage. In the event of a substantial loss, Emaar Misr’s insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover
the full current market value or replacement cost of its lost investment. Should an uninsured loss or a loss
in excess of insured limits occur, Emaar Misr could lose all or a portion of the capital it has invested in one
of its projects as well as some anticipated future revenues. In that event, contractual obligations relating to
the project may remain. Inflation, changes in building codes and ordinances, environmental considerations
and other factors might also prevent Emaar Misr from using insurance proceeds to replace or renovate a
property after it has been damaged or destroyed.

22
Emaar Misr may also face an insurance provider which challenges Management’s belief that a certain
claim is covered by an insurance policy. Under these circumstances, the insurance proceeds may be
inadequate to restore the former economic position on the damaged or destroyed property, which could
have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr. Accordingly, any of these factors may have a material
adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Insufficient local infrastructure and utilities may result in delays in the completion of projects.
The timely construction, completion and sustained viability of Emaar Misr’s projects is dependent upon
and may be adversely impacted by insufficient levels of local infrastructure and utilities. Along with
increased development and growth of the Egyptian real estate market and overall economy, the existing
infrastructure and utilities may experience excessive demand. The establishment of new communities and
commercial projects, such as those in development by Emaar Misr, may require the expansion of water,
electricity and sanitation networks into new geographic areas. Similarly, the construction of new
developments requires road and transportation networks with sufficient capacity to handle the transit of
construction inputs. If the existing infrastructure and utilities are inadequate or non-existent, this may
result in delays in the completion of a project or may result in a completed project not achieving its
expected potential.
While Emaar Misr develops and constructs local infrastructure and utilities in its projects, the existing
public infrastructure to which it connects is beyond Emaar Misr’s control. Consequently, no assurance can
be given that improvements to or the establishment of infrastructure in and around Emaar Misr’s projects
will occur prior to completion of the projects, that any such improvement will be sufficient to support the
completed projects or that the infrastructure will be maintained to an appropriate standard. If the required
utilities and infrastructure are not developed or improved, Emaar Misr’s ability to develop and the
commercial viability of its completed projects could be negatively impacted, which may have a material
adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Emaar Misr is part of the Emaar Group and has in the past engaged in, and will continue to rely on, related party
transactions with members of the Emaar Group.
Emaar Misr has entered into and may continue to enter into transactions with certain members and
affiliates of the Emaar Group, including the Emaar Hospitality Group, the Emaar Retail Group, the
Emaar Malls Group, Emaar Saudi Arabia, Emaar Syria and Turner among others. Some of these
transactions are important for Emaar Misr’s development plans and business strategy, in particular the
development of Emaar Misr’s retail, commercial and hospitality segments.
Transactions entered into with related parties have in the past been entered into on an arm’s-length basis
pursuant to market terms. However, there can be no assurance that Emaar Misr will be able to enter into
transactions on market terms with its related parties in the future, particularly in circumstances where no
unrelated third parties are able to offer comparable services. In the event such related party transactions
shift excessive benefits to Emaar Misr’s related parties, the transactions Emaar Misr enters into could have
a material adverse effect on its business, financial conditions, results of operations and prospects. For
further details relating to Emaar Misr’s transactions with certain members and affiliates of the Emaar
Group, see ‘‘Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions’’.

The Principal Shareholder may take actions that are not in line with, or may conflict with, its public shareholders’
best interests.
Emaar Misr is currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Principal Shareholder. Upon completion of the
Combined Offering and assuming all Public Offering Shares are offered and sold in the Egyptian Public
Offering, the Principal Shareholder will hold 87.01% of Emaar Misr’s Ordinary Shares and voting rights,
giving it the ability to designate a majority of the members of the Board of Directors and, as such, the
ability to control Emaar Misr’s business direction and strategy. For further details relating to Emaar Misr’s
transactions with certain affiliates and members of the Principal Shareholder and the Emaar Group prior
to and after the Combined Offering, see ‘‘Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions’’. The
interests of the Principal Shareholder may differ from Emaar Misr’s interests or those of other
shareholders of Emaar Misr. For example, the Principal Shareholder may pursue transactions that, in its
judgment, could enhance its equity investment, even though the transaction may involve risks to the other
shareholders. Moreover, the Principal Shareholder and Emaar Misr may compete in the real estate
market. There can be no assurance that the interests of the Principal Shareholder will coincide with the

23
interests of the other shareholders or that the Principal Shareholder will act in a manner that is in Emaar
Misr’s best interests.

Emaar Misr is subject to extensive environmental regulation, which creates uncertainty regarding future
environmental expenditures and liabilities.
Environmental laws and regulations in Egypt have evolved over time and are continuing to evolve. An
owner or occupier of Egyptian real estate must investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or
petroleum products released at or affecting such real estate. Even if more than one person may have been
responsible for the contamination of the land, each person covered by the environmental laws may be held
jointly and severally responsible for all of the clean-up costs incurred. In addition, third parties or the
owners of neighbouring properties may sue the owner or occupier of a site for damages and costs resulting
from environmental contamination emanating from that site. As Emaar Misr’s real estate business grows
and expands and, as Egyptian environmental laws continue to evolve, Emaar Misr may face increased risks
relating to environmental contamination and protection in the future.
Under Egyptian law, environmental liabilities that occurred while land was owned by the State, that is,
prior to the execution of a preliminary sales contract, remain the responsibility of the State. However,
there can be no assurance that the law will not change or that it will prove possible to delineate and
allocate responsibility for environmental contamination to the periods before and after the dates of land
allocation contracts. If Emaar Misr were to be found liable for any environmental contamination that
occurred prior to the land being allocated to it, the allocation of responsibility for such contamination may
be costly and time-consuming and, accordingly, Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects could be adversely affected.

Emaar Misr and certain of its executives and directors are and may continue to be party to civil and criminal legal
proceedings, the outcome of which is uncertain.
Emaar Misr and certain of its executives and directors are currently party to a number of legal and
arbitration proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including in relation to the title to land. In
addition, pursuant to Egyptian law, criminal proceedings may be initiated directly by an individual plaintiff
(without any prosecutorial investigation) in connection with certain types of misdemeanours for which the
law permits settlement or conciliation pursuant to the Egyptian Code of Criminal Procedures. Emaar
Misr’s Chairman and Managing Director, as legal representatives of Emaar Misr, have been and may
continue to be subject to such criminal proceedings. For a description of such proceedings, see ‘‘Description
of Emaar Misr—Legal Proceedings’’. In the future, Emaar Misr and certain of its executives and directors
may become involved in litigation or other proceedings.
Court proceedings and judicial decisions in Egypt are not always predictable. If any proceedings are
resolved adversely against Emaar Misr or such executives or directors, such litigation or proceedings may
significantly harm Emaar Misr’s future results of operations or financial condition due to the imposition of
penalties or other damages which may not be covered by insurance, and may result in criminal convictions
of certain of its executives, which would have a material adverse impact on Emaar Misr’s reputation,
results of operations and ability to execute its business plan.

Emaar Misr requires significant capital investments in connection with its current development projects and may be
required to make further capital investments in the future; there is no guarantee that Emaar Misr will be able to
secure such funding at favourable terms or at all.
Emaar Misr’s strategy contemplates significant capital investments in a relatively short period of time and
it expects to make significant capital investments in the near future in its existing projects. Emaar Misr
intends to use the net proceeds from the Combined Offering, together with its existing cash resources,
principally to further the development of the non-residential areas of its projects under development,
including primarily Emaar Square in Project Uptown Cairo, the marina and hotels in Project Marassi and
the downtown area in Project Mivida (comprising both retail and office space). Emaar Misr also intends to
use a part of the net proceeds from the Combined Offering to fund pre-launch expenditures and costs in
relation to the development of Cairo Gate as well as selectively growing its land bank through the potential
acquisition of select land plots that meet the investment criteria of Emaar Misr. See ‘‘Use of Proceeds’’ and
‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Description of Projects’’.
In the future, while Emaar Misr expects to be in a position to finance its capital investment requirements
from operating cash flows and existing or new debt facilities, it may consider other means of financing its

24
future plans, such as by further accessing the capital markets or incurring additional debt. However, there
can be no guarantee that Emaar Misr will be able to generate sufficient cash flows to fund capital
investments for existing and future development projects. In addition, Emaar Misr may also face
difficulties in obtaining debt financing, refinancing existing debt or raising capital from the capital markets
due to reasons beyond its control, such as general political, social and economic conditions or due to
covenants under existing or future financing agreements. Should Emaar Misr be able to obtain and use a
higher amount of debt financing for future developments than it has historically required, the risks
normally associated with debt financing, such as fluctuations in interest rates and increased interest
expense, may affect Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Emaar Misr’s failure to generate sufficient cash flows or to obtain the capital required to finance
investments in, or other liquidity requirements of, its existing development projects or its future growth
plans could have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Risks Relating to Egypt and the MENA Region


All of Emaar Misr’s projects and properties are located in, and all of Emaar Misr’s revenue is derived
from, Egypt. Consequently, Emaar Misr is susceptible to broader political, social, economic, legal and
other trends and events in Egypt and the MENA region more generally. Since late 2010, there have been
significant civil disturbances and events resulting from political turmoil affecting several countries in the
MENA region, which to date have led to the collapse, near collapse or significant weakening and reshaping
of the political regimes of Yemen, Syria, Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. In addition, on-going armed conflicts in
Iraq, Libya, Syria and Yemen have had a destabilising impact on the region. Political instability and armed
conflict in the MENA region could result in increased uncertainty and adversely affect economic activity in
these countries, which could have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition
and results of operations.

Businesses operating in Egypt are exposed to political and social risk.


Egypt has been subject to political upheavals and multiple changes of government in recent years. Political
unrest in Egypt led to demonstrations and protests in Egypt’s principal cities, leading to the January 2011
revolution which resulted in the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak. Presidential elections were held
in June 2012, resulting in the election of Mohammed Morsi. In July 2013, in the face of popular
demonstrations against the government, the Egyptian armed forces deposed President Morsi and his
government and installed an interim government, pending new elections. The subsequent months were
characterised by widespread civil unrest and violent clashes between supporters of the deposed president
and the new interim government. In January 2014, a new constitution was overwhelmingly approved in a
referendum. Presidential elections were held in May 2014 and Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi was sworn in as
President of Egypt on 8 June 2014. In light of the sustained political uncertainty and instability, including
the adoption of two constitutions, business activity in Egypt has been negatively affected.
The current government is likely to continue to face socio-economic challenges and risks of instability that
often accompany political transition. These challenges, together with the incidents of social and political
unrest and violence in Egypt, have historically had a significant adverse effect on the Egyptian economy.
Furthermore, there is limited visibility as to the timing of new parliamentary elections, which are required
under the new constitution and form a part of the political transition plan. New parliamentary elections
may lead to the formation of a new government. The political make-up of the new government and its
priorities and policies are unknown.
Egypt’s economic challenges, including in particular low growth rates, high unemployment and high
inflation, place considerable burdens on the population. While the current government has been
implementing economic reforms aiming to increase foreign investment, drive economic growth and tackle
high unemployment, there can be no assurance that these reforms will be successful or that they will be
sufficient to improve the quality of life of Egyptians. Any failure by the government to adequately address
Egypt’s challenges may result in political and social instability.
There can be no assurance that further incidents of political or social instability, protests or violence in
Egypt will not directly or indirectly affect Egypt and its economy, which, in turn, could have a material
adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

25
Egypt faces significant economic challenges.
The significant political instability and subsequent transition beginning in January 2011 and, to a lesser
extent, the recent global economic crisis, have had material negative consequences for the Egyptian
economy. Egypt’s real GDP growth has slowed from 5.1% in 2009-2010 to 1.8% in 2010-2011, 2.2% in
2011-2012, 2.1% in 2012-2013 and 2.2% in 2013-2014 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February
2015). Total net foreign direct investment has decreased by 69% from the fiscal year ending in June 2008 to
the fiscal year ending in June 2013, with a significant part of that decline occurring since 2011. Inflation, as
measured by the Egyptian consumer price index, decreased from 11.8% in 2009 to 9.5% in 2013, inflation
was expected to reach 10.1% in 2014 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Moreover, the
Egyptian economy is subject to the risk of increasing inflation due to the devaluation of the Egyptian
pound and any recovery in GDP growth rates as the economic reforms begin to be implemented. Although
price stability is at the centre of the Central Bank of Egypt’s monetary policy, there can be no assurance
that the Central Bank of Egypt will be able to achieve or maintain price stability and thus control inflation.
Egypt’s budget deficit has increased from 6.9% of GDP in 2009 to 10.8% of GDP in 2012 and 13.7% of
GDP in 2013, but subsequently declined slightly to reach 12.8% of GDP in 2014. Egyptian public debt has
also increased from 72.5% of GDP in 2009 to 89.3% of GDP in 2014 (source: Central Bank of Egypt). The
stabilisation and slight decrease in the budget deficit has resulted in large part due to lower energy
subsidies and substantial grants and other budgetary support from Gulf Cooperation Council member
states.
Net international reserves of the Central Bank of Egypt decreased by 52.3% since 30 June 2009 to
$14.9 billion as of 30 June 2013. In the absence of robust tourism revenue, Egypt’s net international
reserves have been heavily supported by supplies of energy on concessionary terms and new deposits with
the CBE, in each case, by Gulf Cooperation Council member states. In January 2014, the Egyptian
Minister for Tourism announced that Egypt’s revenue from tourism increased by 124.7% from June 2014
to September 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 and by 102.8% from October 2014 to December
2014 compared to the same period in 2013 (source: Ministry of Tourism).
There can be no assurance that Egypt will not continue to experience further economic difficulties or that
it will be able to adequately address these difficulties and stabilise or improve the macroeconomic
environment. In particular, any failure to address Egypt’s fiscal and current account deficits may lead to an
unsustainable macroeconomic environment and precipitate a fiscal or balance of payments crisis. There
can be no assurance that Egypt will continue to benefit from fiscal or foreign exchange support from the
member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council. Any reduction or cessation of such support could lead to
a significant deterioration of the macroeconomic environment. Any deterioration of such conditions may
have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects.

Egypt has experienced and continues to experience terrorist events and occasional civil disorder.
Egypt has experienced and continues to experience terrorist attacks and occasional civil disorder. Terrorist
attacks have largely targeted security and military personnel, tourists, religious minorities, local offices of
foreign companies and political figures across the country. The terrorist campaign in Sinai by an affiliate of
the Islamic State has been particularly deadly since 2011 and has claimed the lives of hundreds of
Egyptians, including security and military personnel, as well disrupted exports of natural gas by pipelines.
Similarly, Libya has experienced severe political instability and the country has descended into civil war
with lawlessness allowing another affiliate of the Islamic State to establish a base, with serious implications
for Egypt, including violence against Egyptians in Libya and cross-border military strikes by the Egyptian
armed forces. More recently, cities in Egypt’s Nile valley and delta (including Cairo) have witnessed
incidents involving improvised explosive devices, although material and human losses from these incidents
have, to date, been largely limited. There can be no assurance that extremists or terrorist groups in the
region will not escalate or continue these violent activities in Egypt, or expand their operations to include
more targets.
Since 2011, Egypt has also witnessed periods of civil disorder such as demonstrations, protests and sit-ins.
Recent examples include demonstrations by banned political groups, football-related violence and sit-ins
by opposition parties. Many of these events have resulted in violence and, in many cases, loss of life. Any
continuation or escalation of these events may discourage tourists from visiting Egypt and deter
investments in Egypt, which would lead to a deterioration of the macroeconomic climate, a further strain
on net international reserves and, in turn, a worsening of the political and social environment. The effects

26
of any such terrorist activities and security concerns could have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects as well as investor confidence in investing
in Egypt.

The Egyptian legal system and new legislation can create an uncertain environment for investment and business
activity.
The Egyptian legal system is still developing the framework to support a market economy. As a result, this
creates uncertainties, which may not exist in countries with more developed market economies, with
respect to the legal and business decisions that real estate companies make. The evolution of Egypt’s legal
system, particularly with respect to tax laws during the current transitional period, may adversely affect
relevant market developments resulting in certain cases of ambiguities, inconsistencies or anomalies in the
law, its implementation and judicial practice. Enforcement of contractual rights through the courts may
also face difficulties and delays. The foregoing may have an adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s ability to
protect certain contractual rights, or to defend itself against certain claims by others, including challenges
by regulatory and governmental authorities in relation to its compliance with applicable laws and
regulations and could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.

Companies operating in Egypt may be subject to foreign exchange controls.


Prior to 1994, the Egyptian government had at various times imposed foreign exchange controls limiting
the ability of companies to obtain foreign currency. During these times, Egyptian companies experienced
difficulties in converting Egyptian pounds to foreign currencies. More recently, since the revolution in
January 2011, to address shortages in foreign currency availability, temporary restrictions and monitoring
mechanisms and rules have been imposed by the Central Bank of Egypt in order to limit the outflow and
prioritise the utilisation of foreign currency. Such restrictions imposed in Egypt included limitations on the
ability of individuals and companies to transfer foreign currency abroad without Central Bank of Egypt
approval, which is discretionary based on the quantities being transferred and the proposed utilisation. If
the Egyptian government introduces more restrictive foreign currency exchange controls, Emaar Misr may
experience difficulty or be unable to service its foreign currency-denominated payment obligations, which
may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Official statistics and market data published in Egypt may not be complete or reliable.
Although a number of ministries, agencies and entities of the Egyptian government, including the Egyptian
Ministry of Economic Development, the Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics and the
Central Bank of Egypt, produce statistics on Egypt and other data on its economy, there can be no
assurance that such information is as accurate or reliable as that compiled in more developed countries.
Management has not independently verified such official statistics or other data, and any discussion of
matters relating to Egypt in this Offering Memorandum is therefore subject to uncertainty due to
questions regarding the completeness and/or reliability of such information. Moreover, the real estate
market in Egypt is characterised by a limited amount of publicly available data and independent research
compared to, for example, Western Europe. As a result, it may be difficult to assess the market value of
real estate assets in Egypt and to analyse market trends and conditions over time or at all. This restricts the
ability to forecast market prices, property-related costs and property values.

Emerging markets, such as Egypt, are generally subject to greater risks than more developed markets.
Investing in securities involving emerging market countries generally involves a higher degree of risk than
investments in securities of issuers from more developed countries. These higher risks include, but are not
limited to, rapid and significant changes in the political, social and economic environment, changes in
government policy, arbitrary actions of governmental authorities adversely affecting business and trade,
corruption, changes in the relations between countries, lack of consistent law enforcement, higher volatility
in the financial markets, limited liquidity, high rates of inflation, currency fluctuation and country default.
In Egypt, some of these risks have been exacerbated by the events and the challenges that Egypt has faced
over the past few years. Moreover, international investors’ reactions to events occurring in one emerging
market country or region may sometimes demonstrate a ‘‘contagion’’ effect, in which an entire region or
class of investment is disfavoured by such investors. If such a ‘‘contagion’’ effect occurs, Egypt could be
adversely affected by negative developments in other countries in the region. Any of the above risks could

27
have a material adverse effect on Emaar Misr’s business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects.

Disclosure obligations, financial controls and corporate governance requirements and protections for minority
shareholders or investors in publicly traded companies in Egypt may be less extensive than those of jurisdictions
with more established securities markets.
There is generally less information available about Emaar Misr and other Egyptian companies than is
regularly available for listed companies in the United States, the United Kingdom or certain other
jurisdictions, particularly those with more established securities markets. Regulations concerning reporting
requirements and auditing standards for Egyptian companies may not afford the same degree of investor
protection as is available in the United States or European markets.
In recent years, the corporate governance and accounting, financial and other disclosure standards
applicable to Egyptian companies and publicly listed companies in particular, have been subject to
significant amendments including most recently, the amendment and restatement of the EGX Listing
Rules as of 1 February 2014. The corporate affairs of Emaar Misr are governed by the Egyptian
Companies Law, the Egyptian Investment Law, the Capital Market Law, the EGX Listing Rules, the
statutes of Emaar Misr and other laws governing companies incorporated in Egypt. The rights of
shareholders of Emaar Misr and the responsibilities of members of the Board of Directors under Egyptian
law are different in certain respects from those applicable to corporations organised in the United States,
the United Kingdom and other jurisdictions. In particular, Egyptian law significantly limits the
circumstances under which shareholders of an Egyptian company may bring shareholder derivative actions.
Regulations governing the Egyptian securities market are not as extensive as those in the United States,
the United Kingdom and major securities markets in other jurisdictions. In addition, although Egyptian
law imposes restrictions and penalties on insider trading and share price manipulation, the Egyptian
securities market is not as highly regulated or supervised as more established securities markets such as
those in the United States and certain Western European countries. Moreover, many provisions of Egypt’s
securities laws have not yet received judicial or regulatory interpretation or review and are therefore less
developed than comparable provisions of laws of certain other countries. For a description of certain
matters relating to ownership of Ordinary Shares, see ‘‘Description of Share Capital and Applicable Egyptian
Law’’ below.

Risks Relating to the Shares


The EGX is smaller and less liquid than other major exchanges and may be more volatile, which may adversely
affect investors’ ability to trade the Ordinary Shares and the price at which trades may occur.
Currently, there is no public market for the Ordinary Shares and there can be no assurance that an active
trading market for the Ordinary Shares will develop or be sustained after the Combined Offering. The only
trading market for the Ordinary Shares will be the EGX, and the Company has no plans in the near future
to seek a listing on any other stock exchange. The EGX is considerably smaller and consequently less
liquid than more developed securities markets, including, for example, those in the United States or the
United Kingdom. As of 31 March 2015, the total market capitalisation of all the companies listed on the
EGX was approximately EGP 497.8 billion and a disproportionately large percentage of the market
capitalisation and trading volume of the EGX is represented by a small number of listed companies. As of
31 March 2015, the shares of 219 companies were traded on the EGX and the combined market
capitalisation of the 10 companies with the greatest market capitalisations was approximately 50.1% of the
market capitalisation of all companies trading on the EGX. As of 31 March 2015, the combined market
capitalisation of the 10 companies with the greatest market capitalisations on the EGX was approximately
EGP 249.5 billion. The average daily trading value in the shares of the 10 most traded companies on the
EGX was approximately EGP 405.0 million during 2014, which represented approximately 51.3% of the
average daily trading value of all stocks traded on the EGX in 2014, which was EGP 788.9 million.
The EGX is also a volatile market, which is illustrated by EGX30 index figures that have ranged between
3586.6 and 9811.4 from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2014. Trading on the EGX has traditionally been
characterised by a high degree of short-term speculative trading, which is at least partially attributable to
the relatively underdeveloped institutional investor base and the dominant retail activity in Egypt and the
relatively small size of the retail investor base. Furthermore, trading on the EGX was suspended from
27 January 2011 to 22 March 2011 and there can be no assurance that a suspension will not happen again
in the future. The EGX30 Index’s market capitalisation was EGP 216.0 billion as of 31 March 2015 and

28
EGP 215.2 billion as of 31 December 2014, EGP 155.5 billion as of 31 December 2013 and EGP
117.9 billion as of 31 December 2012, respectively.
The market value of the Ordinary Shares may also be subject to significant fluctuation, which may not
necessarily be related to the Company’s financial performance. The relatively small size and low liquidity
of the EGX in general and the limited public market for the shares in particular may impair the ability of
holders of the Institutional Offering Shares to sell them in the amount and at the price and time the holder
may wish to do so, and may increase the volatility of the price of the Ordinary Shares. Please see ‘‘Securities
Market Information—Egyptian Securities Market’’.
Although the EGX has a book-entry system for trading dematerialised shares, settlement procedures in
Egypt remain less developed and reliable than those in more established securities markets. Accordingly,
while the official settlement period for trades effected on the EGX is up to two business days, settlement
delays and administrative problems do occur.

Sales of substantial numbers of the Ordinary Shares in the public markets following the Combined Offering could
have an adverse effect on the market for, and the prices of, the Ordinary Shares.
Emaar Misr and the Principal Shareholder, which, after completion of the Combined Offering and
assuming all Public Offering Shares are offered and sold in the Egyptian Public Offering, will own 87.01%
of the Ordinary Shares, have agreed that, without the prior written consent of the Managers, they will not
issue (in respect of the Company), offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any Ordinary
Shares or securities convertible into Ordinary Shares for a period of 180 days from the date of the
Underwriting Agreement, subject to certain exceptions. In accordance with the EGX Listing Rules, the
Principal Shareholder is also subject to a lock-up requirement which requires it to maintain at least 51%
(as measured prior to the Combined Offering) of its Ordinary Shares in Emaar Misr for a period of two
years following the commencement of trading of the Ordinary Shares on the EGX. See ‘‘Plan of
Distribution—Lock-up Arrangements’’.
Despite these lock-up restrictions on the Principal Shareholder and Emaar Misr, sales of substantial
numbers of Ordinary Shares in the public market following the Combined Offering by the Principal
Shareholder or Emaar Misr, or the perception that such sales may occur, could have a material adverse
effect on the market for and the prices of the Ordinary Shares.

The market price of the Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly.


The market price of the Ordinary Shares may be volatile and subject to wider fluctuations as a result of a
variety of factors, including but not limited to those referred to in the risk factors described in this Offering
Memorandum as well as period-to-period variations in operating results or changes in its sales or profit
estimates, industry participants or financial analysts. The market price could also be affected by
developments unrelated to the operating performance of Emaar Misr, such as the operating and share
price performance of other companies that investors may consider comparable to Emaar Misr, speculation
about Emaar Misr in the media or the investment community, strategic actions by competitors, such as
acquisitions and restructurings and changes in market conditions and regulatory requirements.

Emaar Misr may not pay dividends to its shareholders or declare dividends in the future.
Publicly listed companies in Egypt are required to distribute dividends in accordance with the law, their
constitutional documents and the dividend policies adopted by their shareholders. Subject to mandatory
legal requirements relating to legal reserves and employee profit sharing, publicly listed companies may, in
their discretion, distribute dividends to their shareholders out of retained earnings or realised profits in the
form of cash and/or bonus shares, or retain the realised profits. Emaar Misr has not distributed any
dividends in the past and there can be no assurance that holders of the Ordinary Shares will receive
dividends in the future. Emaar Misr’s ability to pay dividends is contingent on achieving adequate profits,
levels of retained earnings and the timing and amount of any future dividend payments will depend on its
existing and future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity needs, any restrictions on payment of
dividends in its financing agreements and other matters that Emaar Misr may consider relevant from time
to time, including, without limitation, capital expenditures, financial performance and equity market
conditions. After the Combined Offering, the Principal Shareholder will control the outcome of any
shareholder vote regarding dividends. For further details about Emaar Misr’s dividend policy, see
‘‘Dividend Policy’’. Even if Emaar Misr generates significant profits, it may not pay dividends if the Board
of Directors believes that shareholder value may be increased more effectively by using the profit for other
purposes, for example through re-investment or in acquisitions.

29
Shareholders may have limited recourse against Emaar Misr’s assets and its Board of Directors and members of
management.
Emaar Misr’s presence outside the United States and the United Kingdom may limit the legal recourse of
shareholders against Emaar Misr and its Board of Directors and executive officers. Emaar Misr is
incorporated under the laws of Egypt and all of the members of its Board of Directors and executive
officers reside in the United Arab Emirates or Egypt. All of Emaar Misr’s assets and a substantial portion
of the assets of the members of the Board of Directors and executive officers are located outside the
United States and the United Kingdom, principally in Egypt and the United Arab Emirates. As a result,
investors may not be able to serve process within the United States and the United Kingdom on Emaar
Misr, members of its Board of Directors and executive officers or to enforce United States and United
Kingdom court judgments obtained against Emaar Misr, Board of Directors and executive officers in
jurisdictions outside the United States and the United Kingdom. See ‘‘Enforcement of Arbitral Decisions
and Civil Liabilities’’.

Shareholders in the United States may be unable to participate in future rights offerings.
If Emaar Misr were to grant rights to participate in future equity offerings to its shareholders, U.S. holders
may not be entitled to exercise these rights unless the rights and related securities are registered under the
Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available. Emaar
Misr intends to evaluate, at the time of any rights offering, the costs and potential liabilities associated with
registering the rights and related securities or qualifying for an exemption under the Securities Act as well
as the indirect benefits to it of enabling its U.S. holders to exercise such rights, and any other factors that
Emaar Misr considers appropriate at the time, prior to making a decision whether to register such rights or
qualify for an exemption. No assurance can be given that Emaar Misr will choose to register any such rights
and related securities or that an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act will be
available to enable such U.S. holders to exercise such rights or, if available, that it will utilise any such
exemption. For a description of pre-emptive rights relating to Emaar Misr’s share capital, see ‘‘Description
of Share Capital and Applicable Egyptian Law’’.

The issue of additional Ordinary Shares may dilute all other shareholdings.
Future issuances of Ordinary Shares or other securities may dilute the holdings of shareholders and could
materially and adversely affect the price of the Ordinary Shares. Emaar Misr may issue additional equity or
securities convertible into the Ordinary Shares through directed offerings without pre-emptive rights for
existing holders in connection with future acquisitions, any share incentive or share option plan or
otherwise. Any such additional offering could reduce the proportionate ownership and voting interests of
holders of Ordinary Shares as well as the earnings per share.

Egypt’s tax legislation may continue to change.


Recently, there have been a number of changes to the tax legislation in Egypt. The changes with most
relevance to the holders of the Ordinary Shares are those concerning the new tax on cash dividend
distributions (dividends in the form of bonus shares are exempt from taxes) and the new capital gains tax
on profits realised by trading listed securities. See the ‘‘Taxation—Certain Egyptian Tax Considerations’’.
There can be no assurance that no further changes to tax legislation may be introduced, and no certainty as
to the effects of future legislation on holders of Ordinary Shares.

Emaar Misr may be classified as a passive foreign investment company (‘‘PFIC’’), which could result in adverse
U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the Ordinary Shares.
The Company does not believe that it was classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for its
most recent taxable year ending 31 December 2014, and based on the nature of the Company’s business,
the projected composition of the Company’s income and the projected composition and estimated fair
market values of the Company’s assets, the Company does not expect to be a PFIC for U.S. federal income
tax purposes for the foreseeable future. However, the determination of whether the Company is a PFIC is
made annually, after the close of the relevant taxable year. Therefore, it is possible that the Company
could be classified as a PFIC for the 2015 taxable year or in future years due to changes in the nature of the
Company’s business, composition of its assets or income, as well as changes in its market capitalisation. If
the Company were a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined in ‘‘Taxation—
Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations’’) holds Ordinary Shares, certain adverse U.S.
federal income tax consequences could apply to such U.S. Holder. See ‘‘Taxation—Certain United States
Federal Income Tax Considerations—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations’’.

30
USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds from the sale of the New Shares in the Combined Offering (assuming all Public Offering
Shares are offered and sold in the Egyptian Public Offering) are expected to amount to approximately
EGP 2,180,000,000 (US$285.6 million), after deducting underwriting commissions, discretionary fees and
expected expenses of approximately EGP 100,000,000 (US$13.1 million) attributed to the Combined
Offering, and assuming no Ordinary Shares are purchased during the Stabilisation Period using the
Stabilisation Fund. All expenses of the Combined Offering will be borne by the Company.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Combined Offering to partially fund existing and
future developments of its projects and selectively expand its land bank. This includes primarily the
following:
• Approximately 70% of the net proceeds raised in the Combined Offering are planned to be used to
fund in part the near-term investment and capital expenditure in relation to the non-residential
components of the Company’s projects under development (including primarily Emaar Square in
Project Uptown Cairo, in addition to Mivida Downtown in Project Mivida and the marina and hotels
in Project Marassi);
• Approximately 15% of the net proceeds are planned to be used to fund the pre-launch expenditures
and costs in relation to the development of Cairo Gate; and
• Approximately 15% of the net proceeds raised in the Combined Offering are planned to be used to
grow the Company’s land bank, through potential acquisitions of select land plots, with a focus solely
on opportunities that are expected to achieve a target levered investment rate of return of 16% and an
achievable minimum gross margin of 25%.
To the extent that the net proceeds are not applied to the above purposes fully or partially, the Company
intends to deposit such amounts into short-term deposits and may re-allocate that funding to other existing
projects or new projects, and will make any related required disclosure.

DIVIDEND POLICY
Dividend Policy
The Company may pay dividends only as permitted by law and subject to consideration of its investment
requirements, financial condition, including its level of indebtedness and liquidity requirements, and its
results of operations. See ‘‘—Payment of Dividends and Legal Reserve’’. The Board of Directors expects to
maintain a flexible dividend policy with a view to balance between growth opportunities and availability of
funds for dividend distribution. The Board of Directors currently expects that in the next few years,
reinvestment of cash surpluses in the business might be considered to have a better impact on long-term
shareholder value than their distribution as dividends.
There can be no assurance that any dividends will be paid in the future or as to the level of any such
dividends. Because the year ended 31 December 2013 was the first year in which Emaar Misr made a
profit, there is no meaningful information available to show the Company’s historical dividend policy. The
declaration, amount and payment of dividends is determined, subject to the limitations set forth above, by
an absolute majority vote of the shareholders represented at an ordinary general meeting (‘‘Ordinary
General Meeting’’) of the Company, generally, but not necessarily, on the recommendation of the Board of
Directors. Future dividends will depend on the Company’s results of operations, financial position,
dividends received from its subsidiaries and affiliates, cash requirements, legal reserve and minimum
capital requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors and
the shareholders. Currently, the Company does not plan to pay dividends in the near-term but may
consider adopting a dividend policy in the future that would aim to provide investors with a dividend
without compromising the Company’s growth strategy. After the Combined Offering, the Principal
Shareholder will control the outcome of any shareholder vote regarding dividends. See ‘‘Risk Factors—
Risks Relating to Emaar Misr’s Business and Industry—The Principal Shareholder may take actions that are
not in line with, or may conflict with, its public shareholders’ best interests’’.

Payment of Dividends and Legal Reserve


The Company has not paid any dividends since its formation.
The after-tax earnings of the Company, after deducting all general expenses and other expenses in each
fiscal year for the Company, as increased or reduced, as the case may be, by any profit or loss of the
Company carried forward from prior years, is available for distribution in accordance with the
requirements of Egyptian law and the Company’s statutes (the ‘‘Statutes’’), pursuant to a shareholders’
resolution in an Ordinary General Meeting.
1. The Company is required to establish and maintain a legal reserve (the ‘‘Legal Reserve’’) to which an
amount equal to 5% of the after-tax earnings must be allocated each year unless the legal reserve is
equivalent to 50% or more of the issued capital of Emaar Misr. As of 31 March 2015, the balance of the
Company’s Legal Reserve was EGP 21,145,120, representing 0.5% of the Company’s issued share capital
as of such date.
2. After funding the Legal Reserve, if required as described above, the balance of the after-tax earnings
(the ‘‘Distributable Profits’’) may be distributed in the following order of priority:
• The Company is legally required to distribute to its employees an amount equal to a minimum of
10% of the Distributable Profits but not exceeding the aggregate annual salaries of its employees,
to be distributed as recommended by the Board of Directors and approved by the Ordinary
General Meeting.
• An initial profit share of an amount equal to a minimum of 5% of the Distributable Profits to be
distributed to the shareholders, to be calculated on the basis of the paid in percentage of their
Ordinary Shares.
• An amount equal to 10% of the remaining Distributable Profits to be allocated to members of
the Board of Directors as remuneration.
• The balance of the Distributable Profits, if any, may be (i) paid to the shareholders as additional
dividends, (ii) carried forward to the following year as retained earnings upon the proposal of the
Board of Directors or (iii) allocated to an extraordinary depreciation fund to be used as
determined by resolution of the shareholders at an Ordinary General Meeting, on the
recommendation of the Board of Directors.

32
• In all cases, the shareholders may decide at an Ordinary General Meeting to distribute all or part
of the profits disclosed by the periodic financial statements prepared by the Company to be
accompanied by a report from the Company’s auditor.
Payment of dividends is made to the shareholder, based on the shareholders’ ledger or a statement of
account from a registered bookkeeper, if the Ordinary Shares are deposited with the MCDR.
The Statutes provide that dividends are paid annually based on the generated net profits according to the
Company’s financial statements. Subject to the Ordinary General Meeting approval and Egyptian law
requirements, the Company must convene an Ordinary General Meeting no later than three months after
the end of the fiscal year to review the audited financial statements and determine dividends, if any, to be
distributed. Dividends declared by resolution of the shareholders at an Ordinary General Meeting must be
distributed within one month from the date of the Ordinary General Meeting. Dividends are payable to
the shareholders of record whose names are recorded in the shareholders’ ledger, or the MCDR records if
the Company’s Ordinary Shares are deposited with the MCDR.
In kind (bonus shares) dividends paid with respect to the shares are not currently subject to Egyptian
income or withholding taxes under the new amendments of the Egyptian income tax law that was issued in
June 2014. See ‘‘Taxation—Certain Egyptian Tax Considerations’’. The Company does not assume
responsibility for any withholding taxes on dividends.

33

On 16 June 2015, the latest practicable date prior to the date of this Offering Memorandum, the Exchange
Rate was EGP 7.629 = US$ 1.00. The CBE publishes the Exchange Rate in accordance with the supply
and demand in the foreign exchange market and principles set by a decree of the Prime Minster upon the
recommendation of the CBE board of directors. Such rules have consistently aimed to stabilise the value of
the EGP and avoid sharp fluctuations in the Exchange Rate.
Pursuant to Egypt’s Banking and Money Law No. 88 of 2003, the CBE, registered banks, and other
authorised foreign exchange dealers are free to determine the applicable exchange rate for the EGP
against foreign currency. Pursuant to the CBE’s internal circulars, the applicable exchange rate is
determined according to the rules and principles of the foreign exchange market provided it does not
exceed a band of 4 piasters (1/100th of one Egyptian pound) above the CBE Exchange Rate. Recently, the
CBE announced implementation of a new U.S. dollar auctions mechanism to stabilise the exchange market
and to obtain the best value for U.S. dollar reserves. Currently no restrictions on remittances apply to
securities listed on the EGX which are purchased by foreign investors and funds and remittances are made
through the CBE mechanism (subject to the applicable CBE directives).

CAPITALISATION
The following table sets forth the bank balances and cash, the current and non-current portions of certain
long-term debt, shareholders’ equity and capitalisation of the Company (i) as of 31 March 2015 and (ii) on
an as adjusted basis to give effect to the sale of 600,000,000 New Shares in the Combined Offering
(assuming all Public Offering Shares are sold in the Egyptian Public Offering) at the Offer Price after
deducting underwriting commissions, discretionary fees and expected expenses relating to the Combined
Offering in the amount of EGP 100,000,000. As of 31 March 2015, the Company paid EGP 3,929,027 of
the total expected expenses relating to the Combined Offering. The ‘‘As Adjusted’’ column below assumes

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements, including
the notes thereto, included elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum, the Selected Financial Information and the
information relating to Emaar Misr’s business in the sections titled ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr’’ and ‘‘Risk
Factors’’, and other information about Emaar Misr included elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum. This
discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Emaar Misr’s
actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of
certain factors including, but not limited to, those discussed in ‘‘Risk Factors’’ and in ‘‘Forward-Looking
Statements’’.

Overview
Emaar Misr is a leading real estate developer in Egypt focusing on premium-quality master-planned
lifestyle communities in prime locations that are anchored by landmark developments.
Emaar Misr has a strong portfolio of developments distributed among three projects under development
and a plot of undeveloped land in prime locations in East, West and Central Cairo as well as the North
Coast:
• Project Uptown Cairo is a 4.5 million square metre project under development designed to be a
mixed-use development in Central Cairo situated at the highest point in the city, built 200 metres
above sea level with easy accessibility from East, West and Central Cairo. Project Uptown Cairo has
the potential to become a new iconic city centre in Cairo. The project has been designed by world-
class architects and designers and is expected to be the first gated, integrated community project in
Central Cairo offering a wide range of amenities, including world-class shopping centres, business
park, hotels, spa, an 18-hole golf course and club house. Project Uptown Cairo will be home to Emaar
Misr’s flagship development, Emaar Square, a world-class shopping, residential, leisure and
entertainment complex comprising an open-air retail mall and office space designed to attract global
brands and leading local and international companies, a five star and a five-plus-star hotel, including
the first ‘‘The Address’’ branded hotel in Cairo and a state-of-the-art entertainment and leisure
centre.
• Project Marassi is a 6.5 million square metre project under development that is expected to become a
year-round resort situated in a prime location in one of the most attractive stretches of the North
Coast with easy accessibility from local and international airports. Project Marassi is designed to
feature a fully-integrated resort community, retail space, twelve anchor hotels, including three
boutique hotels, an 18-hole golf course with a golf academy and clubhouse and a 250 slip yacht
international marina inspired by the French Riviera which, due to its unique location and features, is
difficult to replicate in the region and is therefore expected to transform the area into a premier
international tourist destination. The Marassi Marina is designed to be integrated with customs and
immigration approvals for ease of access and benefits from a unique location and unmatched climate
along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the Mediterranean.
• Project Mivida is a 3.7 million square metre project under development designed to be a fully-
integrated ecologically friendly and energy-efficient community with lush landscapes in a strategic
location in New Cairo City. It is strategically located on New Cairo’s main road and is in close
proximity to the American University in Cairo and Cairo International Airport. Designed by world-
class architects and designers, Project Mivida is expected to be a fully-fledged family-oriented, leisure
and work destination featuring a range of amenities, including a business park, educational, sports and
leisure facilities and a 33-acre central park. Project Mivida will feature Mivida Downtown, a boulevard
shopping area featuring international and local brands strategically located in the centre of New Cairo
City. Mivida Downtown was designed to comprise wide pedestrian streets, water features, full
spectrum dining and easy accessibility to the town centre with multiple access points combining to
provide an unrivalled experience to visitors.
• Cairo Gate is a plot of land of approximately 0.6 million square metres in 6th of October City with a
with frontage of the Cairo—Alexandria Desert highway, an area with limited land offerings, which
makes Cairo Gate a strong value proposition.
As of 31 March 2015, the cumulative number of residential units sold for future delivery and the number of
residential units delivered amounted to 4,676 and 1,850 (including serviced and branded apartments),
respectively. Emaar Misr’s net sales for the three months ended 31 March 2015 were EGP 2.0 billion

38
compared to EGP 1.0 billion for the three months ended 31 March 2014. Emaar Misr’s net sales for 2014
amounted to EGP 7.1 billion, an increase of 71% compared to EGP 4.2 billion in 2013, which in turn was
an increase of 27% compared to EGP 3.3 billion in 2012. Emaar Misr’s total revenue amounted to
EGP 751.5 million for the three months ended 31 March 2015, EGP 2.6 billion for the year ended
31 December 2014, EGP 1.2 billion for the year ended 31 December 2013 and EGP 0.8 billion for the year
ended 31 December 2012.
In a market sample comparing Emaar Misr to certain listed Egyptian real estate developers, Emaar Misr’s
share of total new net sales in Egypt increased from 10% in 2010 to 36% in 2014, which represents an
EGP 6.0 billion increase in Emaar Misr’s total new net sales in a market sample that grew by
EGP 8.7 billion. Emaar Misr’s increase in sales during that period was partially the result of the brand’s
strength and Management’s confidence in continuing to invest, construct and deliver residential units
despite the unprecedented market conditions.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations


Political, Social and Economic Environment
All of Emaar Misr’s projects and properties are located in Egypt. Consequently, broader political, social
and economic trends in Egypt have considerable influence on the Egyptian real estate market as a whole,
and accordingly, on Emaar Misr’s results of operations. The real estate industry is particularly sensitive to
such trends, as demand for housing is closely related to GDP per capita levels, while housing development
costs are affected by inflation and borrowing costs.
The following table sets forth certain macroeconomic and demographic data for Egypt for the periods
indicated below:

Development Costs
Development costs constitute a significant portion of Emaar Misr’s operating costs. Development costs
include purchase price for land, infrastructure costs, contractors’ fees and expenses and costs of
construction materials, master planners, project managers, financing costs and other consultants and
designer costs. In particular, Emaar Misr does not maintain an in-house construction team and relies on
third-party contractors to undertake all construction works. Under the terms of the contracts with third-
party contractors, Emaar Misr is required to make contractual payments, some of which are subject to
inflation and foreign currency related adjustments above certain amounts for costs relating to cement, steel
and energy. As such, these costs are particularly sensitive to factors affecting the macro-economic
environment of Egypt, such as the rate of inflation and GDP, and movements in foreign exchange rates.
Development costs increased between 2012 and 2015, primarily as a consequence of increases in
construction and real estate activity in Egypt and corresponding increases in the cost of land and
construction materials. The total development costs amounted to EGP 0.4 billion in the three months
ended 31 March 2015, EGP 1.5 billion in the year ended 31 December 2014, EGP 0.7 billion in the year
ended 31 December 2013 and EGP 0.4 billion in the year ended 31 December 2012. The total amount of
investments as of 31 March 2015 amounted to EGP 13.4 billion.
To the extent that Emaar Misr has experienced increases in development costs, Management has mitigated
in the past, and intends to continue to mitigate in the future, such increases through a number of actions,
including hiring professional surveyors and pricing consultants to better reflect construction cost in the
feasibility study, incorporating a minimum of 5% contingency buffer above the estimated construction cost
for any unforeseen costs, reviewing annually the total infrastructure cost (indirect cost) at different stages

39
of a project to ensure proper cost allocation, reviewing and increasing prices on a monthly basis to ensure
units are sold at market rates, phasing launches of a relatively small number of units to allow for price
adjustments based on market demand in subsequent launches as various amenities are completed over
time, shortening the time between launch of a project and the award of construction contracts to mitigate
price escalation in the construction market and using a majority of lump sum contracts that only allow for
price fluctuation of a limited number of items.

Revenue Recognition
Emaar Misr determines whether a property is classified as investment property or development property.
Development properties comprise properties that are held for sale in the ordinary course of business.
Principally, these are residential properties that Emaar Misr develops and intends to sell before or on
completion of construction. Investment properties comprise buildings that are not occupied substantially
for use by, or in the operations of Emaar Misr, nor for sale in the ordinary course of business, but are held
primarily to earn rental income and capital appreciation. These buildings comprise commercial, retail and
hospitality properties rented to tenants and not intended to be sold in the ordinary course of business.

Residential properties. Emaar Misr’s revenue recognition policy has a significant impact on its results of
operations. All contracts with customers relating to the residential properties are classified as contracts for
the sale of completed properties. In line with IFRS, Emaar Misr follows the delivery for sold residential
properties in accordance with IAS 18 Revenue and International Financial Reporting Interpretations
Committee 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, which require capitalisation of expenditure in
the development properties account until the delivery of the units. After completion of the unit, at the
point in time when Emaar Misr transfers the risks and rewards of ownership of the property in its entirety
to the customer, revenue and the associated costs are recognised by delivery in accordance with IAS 18
Revenue and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee 15. Hence, the point of
recognition where operating revenue is realised and settled with operating costs related to the unit sold is
the time at which the contracts are exchanged and the buyer takes possession of the property. In
conditional exchanges, revenue is recognised when all significant conditions are satisfied and at the fair
value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into consideration defined terms of payment and
excluding taxes or duty. Therefore, revenue recognised on the statement of profit or loss for any given year
does not reflect the contractual sales entered into during that year but is rather related to completed and
delivered units sold. Sale discounts granted to purchasers of units are netted against sales revenue when
sales revenues are recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Discounting of future receivables in respect
of units is netted against revenue recognised for such delivered units.
Revenue recognition in Project Uptown Cairo started in 2012, and the majority of the delivered units are
attributed to the Platinum Launch event in 2006, in which Emaar Misr was contractually committed to sale
prices ranging from EGP 4500 to EGP 5000 per unit in certain villages. The prices were based on
assumptions made by the Principal Shareholder’s former joint venture partner and are different from
Emaar Misr’s current standards. After the full acquisition, Emaar Misr respected the commitments with
the customers. Future expected losses were recognised in the year ended 31 December 2014 in accordance
with applicable accounting standards.
Commercial, retail and hospitality properties. Emaar Misr does not yet realise material levels of revenue
from leasing of commercial, retail and hospitality properties. Rental income from investment properties is
recognised, net of any discounts to tenants, in accordance with the terms of the lease contracts over the
lease term on a straight-line basis. Revenue from hotel accommodation, food and beverages and other
related services is recognised, net of discount and municipality fees, at the point at which the services are
rendered, and is included in the other income line item of Emaar Misr’s statement of profit or loss.

Interest income. Emaar Misr receives interest income on financial assets which comprise bank balances,
cash and accounts receivable. Interest income is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest
method under which the rate used discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the
financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.
For a discussion of new IFRS accounting standards relating to revenue recognition that will apply to
Emaar Misr in the future, see ‘‘—Future Accounting Changes’’.

40
Cost of Revenue Recognition
Emaar Misr’s recognition of cost of revenue significantly impacts its results of operations. Cost of revenue
relating to a real estate property that is sold includes costs that are related directly to the specific contract
of the unit sold and delivered (such as the cost of land purchased and the costs of construction and
construction inputs) as well as indirect costs that are attributable to the activity in general and can be
allocated to the unit sold and delivered (such as infrastructure costs).
These costs are allocated as direct and indirect costs. Direct costs are land and development costs related
and allocable directly to a unit or group of units. Indirect costs are land and development costs relating to
common areas, facilities or services in respect of a development project or a phase thereof. Direct and
indirect costs are recognised at the time a unit is delivered, which is also when revenues are recognised.
Upon recognition of revenue when a unit is delivered, an allocable portion of indirect costs is recognised at
that time for a development project or phase thereof, which takes into account total estimated indirect
costs for the development project or phase thereof and the state of completion at the time the unit is
delivered.

Investment Properties
Investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated
impairment in value. Management determines the estimated useful lives of its investment properties for
calculating depreciation. This estimate is determined after considering the expected usage of the asset or
physical wear and tear. Management periodically reviews estimated useful lives and the depreciation
method to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of
economic benefits from these assets. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated
useful life (20 years). No depreciation is charged on land and capital work-in-progress.

Contract Sales and Delivery Schedules


The timing of recognition of revenue by Emaar Misr is directly linked to the delivery of units. Therefore,
the level of units delivered in any given period affects revenue recorded on the statement of profit or loss
during that period. Historically, substantially all contract sales have resulted in recognised revenue when
the units are delivered, which during the years 2014, 2013 and 2012 occurred approximately three to four
years after the date of the sales contract. See ‘‘—Revenue Recognition’’ and ‘‘—Cost of Revenue
Recognition’’. While the construction of the projects continued as planned, during the political instability in
Egypt between 2011 and 2013 and due to general market conditions beyond Emaar Misr’s control, Emaar
Misr experienced delays in the delivery of residential units during that period that resulted in extension of
delivery times under the sales contracts as part of customer retention programs. Thereafter, the timing of
delivery improved significantly.

Tax Holidays
Emaar Misr benefits from a tax holiday for the activities of planning and establishing urban regions and
furnishing such regions with required utilities and services until 31 December 2018. The tax holiday does
not apply to certain other income, including interest income on deposits. Taxable income from other
activities or projects that do not benefit from the tax holiday are taxable at a corporate tax rate of 25% on
annual taxable income plus 5% additional tax on the annual taxable income exceeding EGP 1 million. The
addition is due to be implemented starting from year 2014 until the end of 2016. Furthermore, during the
period from 8 June 2008 until 31 December 2013, Emaar Misr benefitted from a tax holiday in relation to a
finance lease with Turner relating to a portion of office space at the Uptown Cairo sales centre, which was
terminated in 2013.

Explanation of Certain Line Items in Statement of Profit or Loss
Revenue. Historically, Emaar Misr has generated substantially all of its revenues from the sales of
residential units and, to a lesser extent, sales of office units. Revenue in the statement of profit or loss
reflects the total amount of revenue recognised during that period in respect of delivered properties. See
‘‘—Factors Affecting Results of Operations—Revenue Recognition’’.

Cost of revenue. Cost of revenue corresponding to units sold and delivered represents costs that are
directly related to the specific contract of the unit delivered, costs that are generally attributable to
activities related to revenue generation and can be allocated to the unit sold. Cost of revenue comprises
the cost of the land plot of a parcel, infrastructure costs (site grading, slot stabilisation, utilities, roads,
traffic solutions, community centres and others), hard costs (direct building construction costs excluding
infrastructure costs), soft costs (costs related to the design, supervision, project management and
consultant fees) and finance costs (capitalised borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition and
construction) and other costs (expected infrastructure cost that are expected to be incurred in the future in
relation to the delivered units and impairment losses relating to the Aurora village in Project Uptown
Cairo). See ‘‘—Factors Affecting Results of Operations—Cost of Revenue Recognition’’.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses represent all
sales, general and administrative expenses incurred during the year or period, as applicable, pertaining to
the properties sold (regardless of the number of properties delivered during that year or period). These
expenses can be categorised under the one of the following categories: advertisement, depreciation
expenses of plant, property and equipment, depreciation expenses of investment property, marketing
production and material, events and exhibition, sales commission, other marketing expenses, salaries and
benefits, professional fees, information technology expenses, travel and entertainment, cleaning and
maintenance, communication, facility management expenses, other bank charges and other expenses.

Finance income. Finance income represents interest received on bank balances.

Finance costs. Finance costs include interest on bank credit facilities and loans, loan arrangement fees,
bank charges relating to the letters of guarantee and other bank charges as well as net foreign exchange
loss.

Other expenses. Other expenses include results of operations of hospitality properties as well as amenities.

Other income. Other income represents customer service charges, penalties and units upgrades, other
income, operating lease income, finance lease income and gain from disposal of property, plant and
equipment.

Provisions no longer required. Provisions no longer required include previous provisions for legal, tax and
other claims that were determined to no longer be required.
Provision. Provisions include provisions for legal, tax and other claims.

Income tax. Income tax expense represents Egyptian tax payable in relation to profits associated with
projects that do not benefit from a tax holiday. Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and
prior years are measured on a project-by-project basis at the amount expected to be recovered from or
paid to the tax authority. Deferred income tax is recognised using the liability method on temporary
differences between the amount attributed to an asset or liability for tax purposes (tax base) and its
carrying amount in the balance sheet (accounting base). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured on
a project-by-project basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or
the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at
the reporting date.

Reporting Segments
As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr’s business lines of retail, commercial and
hospitality do not meet the criteria under IFRS 8 required for reporting segments, and as such, are not
separately disclosed in the Financial Statements. Consequently, all revenue of Emaar Misr in the years
ended 31 December 2014, 2013 and 2012 and the three months ended 31 March 2015 and 2014 was
reported under one segment in the Financial Statements and related primarily to revenue from sales of
residential properties. Management expects that in the future the retail, commercial and hospitality

42
segments will meet the criteria and be identified as separate reporting segments in accordance with IFRS 8
in addition to the residential segment.

Three Months Ended 31 March 2015 Compared to Three Months Ended 31 March 2014
Revenue. Revenue increased by 110.1% to EGP 751.5 million during the three months ended 31 March
2015 from EGP 357.7 million during the three months ended 31 March 2014. The increase was due
primarily to a higher number of residential units delivered in Project Mivida during the three months
ended 31 March 2015.
• In Project Uptown Cairo, Emaar Misr delivered 6 villas, 1 townhouse and 51 apartments with a total
value of EGP 98.2 million (corresponding to 11,100 square metres of GFA) during the three months
ended 31 March 2015 compared to 3 villas, 8 townhouses and 1 apartment with a total value of
EGP 63.3 million (corresponding to 4,513 square metres of GFA) delivered during the three months
ended 31 March 2014.
• In Project Marassi, Emaar Misr delivered 6 villas, 12 townhouses, 11 apartments and 30 mixed units
with a total value of EGP 290.6 million (corresponding to 17,406 square metres of GFA) during the
three months ended 31 March 2015 compared to 6 villas, 2 townhouses, 10 apartments and 23 mixed
units with a total value of EGP 215.6 million (corresponding to 12,933 square metres of GFA)

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
62.7% to EGP 86.1 million during the three months ended 31 March 2015 compared to EGP 52.9 million
during the three months ended 31 March 2014. Selling, general and administrative expenses are recorded
in respect of the units sold during that year (regardless of the number of units delivered during that
period).
The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended 31 March 2015
compared to the three months ended 31 March 2014 was due primarily to an increase in salaries and
benefits of EGP 14.3 million, an increase in sales commission of EGP 10.7 million, an increase in facility
management expenses of EGP 3.1 million, an increase in professional fees of EGP 1.5 million and an
increase in advertisement of EGP 1.2 million.
As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 4.3% during the
three months ended 31 March 2015 compared to 5.3% during the three months ended 31 March 2014 due
to an increase in sales over time, a progressive increase in the leveragability of the operating platform and
increased brand awareness.

Finance income. Finance income increased to EGP 17.4 million during the three months ended 31 March
2015 compared to EGP 2.5 million during the three months ended 31 March 2014 due primarily to an
increase in cash collection from customers which is used to settle payments with the balance being placed

Finance cost. Finance costs decreased by 91.9% to EGP 1.7 million during the three months ended
31 March 2015 compared to EGP 21.4 million during the three months ended 31 March 2014 due primarily
to a decrease in net foreign exchange losses of EGP 13.5 million relating to a charge recorded in March
2014 in respect of the shareholders current account which was capitalised in Emaar Misr’s capital in
December 2014, and a decrease in the finance costs due to the settlement of credit facilities utilised to
finance selling, general and administrative disbursements.

Other expenses. Other expenses increased by 7.8% to EGP 6.5 million during the three months ended
31 March 2015 compared to EGP 6.0 million during the three months ended 31 March 2014 due primarily
to an increase in net operating losses relating to the El Alamein hotel reflecting the seasonal nature of
lower revenue during the first quarter of the year as well as the Marassi beach club, the golf academy in
Project Marassi and the golf club in Project Uptown Cairo.

Other income. Other income increased by 121.1% to EGP 12.8 million during the three months ended
31 March 2015 compared to EGP 5.8 million during the three months ended 31 March 2014 due primarily
to an EGP 5.2 million increase in late payment charges, reinstatement fees and upgrade fees collected
from customers and an EGP 2.2 million increase in customer service charges related to water consumption
charges in Project Marassi.

Provisions no longer required. Provisions no longer required for the three months ended 31 March 2015
were EGP 1.8 million.

Provisions. Provisions for the three months ended 31 March 2015 were EGP 0.2 million related to legal

31 March 2015 compared to 31 March 2014.

46
Profit/(loss) for the period. As a result of the foregoing, profit for the quarter increased to
EGP 161.4 million during the three months ended 31 March 2015 compared to a profit of

margin during the year ended 31 December 2014 decreased to 2.9% compared to 11.7% during the
year ended 31 December 2013. While the total number of units delivered during the year ended
31 December 2014 increased to 105 compared to 82 units delivered during the year ended
31 December 2013, the gross margin during the year ended 31 December 2014 was negatively
impacted by the loss relating to the Aurora village launched in 2006 fully booked in 2014, which was
only offset by the booked revenue from the delivery in 2014 of 55 units out of the 155 units sold in
2006.
• Project Marassi. Gross profit during the year ended 31 December 2014 increased to
EGP 606.0 million compared to EGP 375.0 million during the year ended 31 December 2013. The
gross margin during the year ended 31 December 2014 remained relatively stable at 38.8% compared
to 42.6% during the year ended 31 December 2013 due primarily to a higher proportion of villas
delivered during the year ended 31 December 2014, which have a higher profit margin which was
partly offset by an increase in infrastructure costs due to the addition of a power plant for a total
estimated cost of EGP 300 million.
• Project Mivida. Gross profit during the year ended 31 December 2014 amounted to
EGP 162.0 million compared to nil during the year ended 31 December 2013. The gross margin during

respect of the units sold during that year (regardless of the number of units delivered during that period).
The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the year ended 31 December 2014 was
due primarily to an increase of EGP 19.1 million in facility management expenses relating to Emaar Misr’s
share in the community facility management expenses in addition to its own asset facility management
expenses, an increase in salaries and benefits of EGP 10.0 million, an increase in marketing production and
material of EGP 2.8 million, an increase in events and exhibition of EGP 3.6 million, an increase in
professional fees of EGP 4.0 million relating to the increase in audit fees, legal fees and tax advisor fees
and an increase in other expenses of EGP 3.6 million relating to the increase in rent expenses and office
related expenses.
As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 4.6% during the
year ended 31 December 2014 compared to 6.8% during the year ended 31 December 2013 due to an

48
increase in sales over time, a progressive increase in the leveragability of the operating platform and
increased brand awareness.

Finance income. Finance income increased to EGP 29.9 million during the year ended 31 December 2014
compared to EGP 3.7 million during the year ended 31 December 2013 due primarily to an increase in
interest income from time deposits by EGP 19 million due primarily to an increase in cash collection from
customers which is used to settle payments with the balance being placed as time deposits and an increase
in interest income from current accounts by EGP 7 million during the year ended 31 December 2014.

Finance cost. Finance costs decreased by 46.7% to EGP 111.9 million during the year ended
31 December 2014 compared to EGP 210.0 million during the year ended 31 December 2013 due primarily
to an EGP 85.5 million decrease in net foreign exchange relating to the current account of the Principal
Shareholder, which was transferred to equity.

Other expenses. Other expenses decreased by 49.6% to EGP 3.5 million during the year ended
31 December 2014 compared to EGP 6.9 million during the year ended 31 December 2013 due primarily
to a decrease in net operating losses relating of the El Alamein hotel, the Marassi beach club, the golf
academy in Project Marassi and the golf club in Project Uptown Cairo.

Other income. Other income increased by 29.2% to EGP 35.3 million during the year ended 31 December
2014 compared to EGP 27.3 million during the year ended 31 December 2013 due primarily to an
EGP 14.0 million increase in customer service charges relating mainly to the increase in water
consumption charges in Project Marassi, an increase in profit related to Emaar Plus services and rental
income from leasing of commercial areas in Project Marassi and an office floor in Project Mivida.
Provisions. Provisions for the year ended 31 December 2014 were EGP 3.5 million in respect of legal
claims raised by customers.

Income tax. Income tax credit decreased by 62.0% to EGP 26.5 million during the year ended
31 December 2014 compared to EGP 69.8 million during the year ended 31 December 2013 due primarily
to deferred tax assets recognised in 2013 that mainly resulted from carry forward losses which was used in
2014. No deferred tax assets relating to carry forward losses were recognised during the year ended
31 December 2014.

Profit/(loss) for the year. As a result of the foregoing, profit for the year increased to EGP 424.0 million
during the year ended 31 December 2014 compared to a profit of EGP 9.5 million during the year ended
31 December 2013.

Gross profit. As a result of revenue and cost of revenue, gross profit increased by 92.7% to
EGP 410.5 million during the year ended 31 December 2013 compared to EGP 213.1 million during the
year ended 31 December 2012. Total gross profit margin increased by 6.4% to 34.5% during the year ended
31 December 2013 compared to 28.1% during the year ended 31 December 2012.
• Project Uptown Cairo. Gross profit during the year ended 31 December 2013 increased to
EGP 36.0 million compared to EGP 24.0 million during the year ended 31 December 2012. The gross
margin during the year ended 31 December 2013 increased to 11.7% compared to 10.4% during the
year ended 31 December 2012.
• Project Marassi. Gross profit during the year ended 31 December 2013 increased to
EGP 375.0 million compared to EGP 175.0 million during the year ended 31 December 2012. The
gross margin during the year ended 31 December 2013 increased to 42.6% compared to 37.9% during
the year ended 31 December 2012 due primarily to a higher proportion of villas delivered during the
year ended 31 December 2013 which have a higher profit margin.

50
• Project Mivida. Emaar Misr did not record any gross profit during the year ended 31 December
2013 compared to EGP 14.0 million of gross profit recorded during the year ended 31 December
2012. The gross margin during the year ended 31 December 2012 was 23.1%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
39.4% to EGP 285.0 million during the year ended 31 December 2013 compared to EGP 204.4 million
during the year ended 31 December 2012.
Selling, general and administrative expenses are recorded in respect of the units sold during that year
(regardless of the number of units delivered during that period). The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses during the year ended 31 December 2013 was due primarily to an
EGP 49.8 million increase in sales commissions corresponding to higher levels of sales of residential units
in Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo, an increase of EGP 11.7 million relating to advertising
expenses for Project Marassi, Project Uptown Cairo and Project Mivida and an increase of EGP 5.1 million
relating to general marketing expenses.
As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 6.8% during the year
ended 31 December 2013 compared to 6.2% during the year ended 31 December 2012.

Finance income. Finance income increased by 82.7% to EGP 3.7 million during the year ended
31 December 2013 compared to EGP 2.0 million during the year ended 31 December 2012 due primarily
to an increase in deposits from customers and a higher interest on bank deposits during the year ended
31 December 2013.

Finance costs. Finance costs increased by 85.0% to EGP 210.0 million during the year ended
31 December 2013 compared to EGP 113.5 million during the year ended 31 December 2012 due primarily
to an EGP 92.5 million increase in net foreign exchange loss relating to the depreciation and revaluation of
the Egyptian pound of a current account balance (maintained in United Arab Emirates dirham) and an
EGP 3 million increase in interest paid on credit facilities for general and administrative expenses as a
result of the fluctuation of discount rates announced by the Central Bank of Egypt.

Other expenses. Other expenses increased by 25.5% to EGP 6.9 million during the year ended
31 December 2013 compared to EGP 5.5 million during the year ended 31 December 2012 due primarily
to an increase in net operating losses relating to the Marassi beach club, the golf academy in Project
Marassi and the golf club in Project Uptown Cairo, partly offset by net operating profits from the
operations of the El Alamein hotel.

Other income. Other income increased by 183.8% to EGP 27.3 million during the year ended
31 December 2013 compared to EGP 9.6 million during the year ended 31 December 2012 due primarily
to an EGP 3.7 million increase in the recognition of income from customer charges and an EGP 5.7 million
increase in customer penalties during the year ended 31 December 2013.

Income tax. Income tax credit of EGP 69.8 million relating primarily to the accumulated deferred tax
assets was recognised starting from the year ended 31 December 2013 as they were expected to create
future taxable benefits. No deferred tax assets were recognised during the year ended 31 December 2012
since it was not probable that the carry forward losses would result in future tax benefits before 2013.

Profit/(loss) for the year. As a result of the foregoing, profit for the year increased to EGP 9.5 million
during the year ended 31 December 2013 compared to a loss of EGP 98.7 million during the year ended
31 December 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


Emaar Misr’s principal sources of funds have historically been payments resulting from contract sales in
respect of its residential and office units, capital increases, bank loans and credit facilities, including intra-
group financing from Emaar Properties. Emaar Misr’s principal uses of funds are expenditures in
connection with the acquisition of land and development of real estate and to a lesser extent debt servicing
requirements.
Emaar Misr’s aims to maintain a conservative capital structure with sufficient flexibility to execute its
growth strategy. Emaar Misr uses mainly discounted checks and general loan facilities with limited use of
project financing. In utilising discounted checks, Emaar Misr seeks attractive terms to monetise residential
receivables after handover of units and to optimise its working capital. Emaar Misr uses general loan

51
facilities to fund development activities with a focus on mid- to long-term financing of investment
properties to maximise returns on capital, with a long-term target ratio of up to one-third debt to total
capital for commercial properties. Reliance on project financing is generally limited given market
conditions and the comparably higher cost of funding. Project financing loans are used to finance
disbursements for the projects. The interest expense, fees and other charges due under the project
financing agreements are capitalised over the development period and reflected in the statement of profit
or loss upon delivery of units.

The following table sets forth a summary of Emaar Misr’s net cash flow statement for the three months

Cash flows from operating activities


Cash from operating activities consists of the results from the profit and loss statement adjusted for
non-cash items, which include all items listed in the cash flow statement except changes in working capital.

Three months ended 31 March 2015


Net cash from operating activities was EGP 468.7 million during the three months ended 31 March 2015.
The factors resulting in this positive net cash inflow were the positive net changes to working capital of
EGP 303.9 million and positive cash from operations before working capital changes of EGP 164.8 million.
The positive changes in working capital were due primarily to:
• change in advances from customers of EGP 282.2 million relating to an increase in customer
collections for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo net of revenue recognised of
EGP 771 million,
• change in development properties of EGP 126.6 million mainly relating to EGP 352 million of work
done for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo net of cost recognised in respect
of units delivered of EGP 460 million, and
• change in trade and other payables of EGP 121.8 million relating to a charge to consultants and
contractors for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo,
which was offset by:
• change in accounts and notes receivables of EGP 162.3 million relating to new delivered units net of
collection of previous units delivered, and

payments to consultants and contractors for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown
Cairo in addition to collection of maintenance deposits related to delivered units.

52
Year ended 31 December 2014

factors resulting in this positive net cash inflow were the positive net changes to working capital of
EGP 481.2 million and positive cash from operations before working capital changes of EGP 602.2 million.
The positive changes in working capital were due primarily to:
• change in advances from customers of EGP 921.2 million relating to an increase in customer
collections for Project Mivida, Project Marassi, and Project Uptown Cairo net of revenue recognised
of EGP 2,771 million, and
• change in trade and other payables of EGP 423.0 million relating to a charge to consultants and
contractors for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo,
which was offset by:
• change in accounts and notes receivables of EGP 468.7 million relating to new delivered units net of
collection of previous units delivered, and
• change in other receivables, deposits and prepayments of EGP 405.7 million relating to advance

Cairo in addition to collection of maintenance deposits related to delivered units.

Year ended 31 December 2013


Net cash used in operating activities was EGP 303.0 million during the year ended 31 December 2013. The
factors resulting in this negative net cash flow were the negative net changes to working capital of
EGP 501.6 million partly offset by positive cash from operations before working capital changes of
EGP 198.6 million.
The negative changes in working capital were due primarily to:
• change in development properties of EGP 979.5 million relating to EGP 1,743.0 million of work done
for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo net of cost recognised in respect of
units delivered of EGP 718.6 million, and

Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo net of revenue recognised of EGP 1,248 million,
and
• change in other receivables, deposits and prepayments of EGP 47.5 million relating to advance
payments to consultants and contractors for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown
Cairo in addition to collection of maintenance deposits related to delivered units.

Year ended 31 December 2012

factors resulting in this negative net cash flow were the negative net changes to working capital of
EGP 673.7 million, partly offset by positive cash from operations before working capital changes of
EGP 63.5 million.
The negative changes in working capital were due primarily to:
• change in development properties of EGP 1,268.9 million relating to EGP 1,809.0 million of
construction work completed for Project Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo net of
cost recognised for units delivered in the year ended 31 December 2012 of EGP 432.5 million, and
• change in accounts and notes receivables of EGP 76.4 million relating to new delivered units net of
collection of previous units delivered,

53
which was partly offset by:
• change in advances from customers of EGP 333.5 million relating to customer collection for Project
Mivida, Project Marassi and Project Uptown Cairo net of revenue recognised in 2012 of
EGP 783 million, and
• change in trade and other payables of EGP 248.2 million relating to payments to consultants and

Contingent Obligations and Contingent Liabilities


Emaar Misr is involved, from time to time, in lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, including in
relation to employee disputes, taxes, social insurance and other commercial matters that arise in the
ordinary course of business. Management believes that there are no such matters pending for which
adequate provision has not been made or that Management expects to be material in relation to Emaar
Misr’s business or consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr had commitments in respect of its projects not provided for in its
financial statements amounting to EGP 4.16 billion and maintained post-dated cheques amounting to
EGP 6.9 billion received from its customers and recorded as off-balance sheet items. The post-dated
cheques represent a part of future instalment payments based on the agreed payment schedule.

58
Emaar Misr has two letters of guarantee with a fully cash-covered margin recorded under other
receivables.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to Emaar Misr if a customer or counterparty to a financial
instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Emaar Misr is exposed to credit risk principally from its
receivables from customers, other receivables and from its financing activities, including deposits with
banks and financial institutions.
Emaar Misr’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each
customer. The demographics of Emaar Misr’s customer base, including the default risk of the industry and
country, in which customers operate, has less influence on credit risk. Emaar Misr earns its revenues from
a large number of customers.
Emaar Misr has entered into contracts for the sale of residential and commercial units on an instalment
basis. The instalments are specified in the contracts. Emaar Misr is exposed to credit risk in respect of
instalments due. However, the legal ownership of residential and commercial units is transferred to the
buyer only after all the instalments are recovered. In addition, instalment dues are monitored on an
on-going basis with the result that Emaar Misr’s risk of bad debt is not significant.
With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of Emaar Misr, which comprise bank
balances and cash, financial assets at amortised cost, Emaar Misr’s exposure to credit risk arises from
default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these assets. Credit
risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by Emaar Misr’s treasury in accordance
with Emaar Misr’s policy. Emaar Misr limits its exposure to credit risk by only placing balances with banks
of good repute. Given the profile of its bankers, management does not expect any counterparty to fail in
meeting its obligations.
Concentrations arise when a number of counterparties are engaged in similar business activities, or
activities in the same geographical region, or have economic features that would cause their ability to meet
contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic, political or other conditions.
Concentrations indicate the relative sensitivity of Emaar Misr’s performance to developments affecting a
particular industry. In order to avoid excessive concentration of risk, Emaar Misr’s policies and procedures
include specific guidelines to focus on the maintenance of a diversified portfolio. Identified concentrations
of credit risks are controlled and managed accordingly.

Interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market interest rates. Emaar Misr’s exposure to the risk of changes in market
interest rates relates primarily to Emaar Misr’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates and
interest bearing time deposits.
Interest on financial instruments having floating rates is re-priced at intervals of less than one year. Emaar
Misr manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of variable rate loans and borrowings.
The following table sets forth the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates with all other
variables held constant, of Emaar Misr’s profit before tax (through impact on floating rate borrowings).
There is no impact on Emaar Misr’s equity other than the profit impact stated below.

to changes in the value of monetary assets and liabilities. Emaar Misr’s exposure to foreign currency
changes for all other currencies is not material.

Emaar Misr is also exposed to foreign exchange loss relating to a shareholder account currently in United
Arab Emirates Dirham and converted to equity.

Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that Emaar Misr will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
Emaar Misr monitors its risk to a shortage of funds using a recurring liquidity planning tool. This tool
considers the maturity of its financial assets (such as trade receivables, other financial assets) and projected
cash flows from operations.
The cash flows, funding requirements and liquidity of Emaar Misr are monitored by local company
management supported by the Principal Shareholder. Emaar Misr’s objective is to maintain a balance
between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank overdrafts, bank borrowings and
finance lease contracts. Emaar Misr manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking
facilities and borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring forecasted and actual cash flows and
matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr had
sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses, including the servicing of financial
obligations.

Critical Accounting Policies


The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. Emaar Misr has identified its
revenue recognition policy and costs of sales recognition policy, as discussed above in ‘‘—Factors Affecting
Results of Operations’’, as critical to its business and results of operations. These accounting policies are
both important to the portrayal of the reported performance and financial position and require
Management’s most subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to estimate the effects
of matters that are inherently uncertain. The impact and risks associated with these critical accounting
policies on Emaar Misr’s business operations are discussed throughout this discussion and analysis where
such policies affect the reported and expected financial results. For a detailed discussion of the application
of these and other significant accounting policies, see Notes 2.4 and 2.5 to the Annual Financial
Statements included elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum.
The preparation of the Financial Statements requires Management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date
of the Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting
period. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience where applicable and
other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management cannot offer any assurance
that the actual results will be consistent with these estimates and assumptions.

Future Accounting Changes


The standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of Emaar
Misr’s Interim Financial Statements are disclosed below. Emaar Misr intends to adopt these standards, if
applicable, when they become effective. For a description of other standards that are issued but not yet
effective, see Note 2.3 to the Annual Financial Statements.

60
IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers
New standard on revenue recognition, superseding IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and
related interpretations.
IFRS 15 establishes a new five-step model that will apply to revenue arising from contracts with customers.
Under IFRS 15 revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity
expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The principles in
IFRS 15 provide a more structured approach to measuring and recognising revenue. The new standard is
applicable to all entities and will supersede all current revenue recognition requirements under IFRS.
Either a full or modified retrospective application is required for annual periods beginning on or after
1 January 2017 with early adoption permitted.
Emaar Misr has elected to start applying IFRS 15 from 1 January 2016. Under IFRS 15, Emaar Misr will
use a ‘percentage-of-completion method’ to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be
recognised over the period of the contract rather than at the time of delivery of sold units.

IFRS 8 Operating Segments


The IFRS 8 amendments are applied retrospectively and clarify that an entity must disclose the judgments
made by management in applying the aggregation criteria in paragraph 12 of IFRS 8, including a brief
description of operating segments that have been aggregated and the economic characteristics (e.g., sales
and gross margins) used to assess whether the segments are ‘‘similar’’. The reconciliation of segment assets
to total assets is only required to be disclosed if the reconciliation is reported to the chief operating
decision maker, similar to the required disclosure for segment liabilities.

IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures


The amendment is applied retrospectively and clarifies that a management entity (an entity that provides
key management personnel services) is a related party subject to the related party disclosures. In addition,
an entity that uses a management entity is required to disclose the expenses incurred for management
services.

IFRS 3 Business Combinations


The amendment is applied prospectively and clarifies for the scope exceptions within IFRS 3 that joint
arrangements, not just joint ventures, are outside the scope of IFRS 3. This scope exception applies only to
the accounting in the financial statements of the joint arrangement itself.

IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement


The amendment is applied prospectively and clarifies that the portfolio exception in IFRS 13 can be
applied not only to financial assets and financial liabilities, but also to other contracts within the scope of
IFRS 9 (or IAS 39, as applicable).

IAS 40 Investment Properties


The description of ancillary services in IAS 40 differentiates between investment property and owner-
occupied property (i.e., property, plant and equipment). The amendment is applied prospectively and
clarifies that IFRS 3, and not the description of ancillary services in IAS 40, is used to determine if the
transaction is the purchase of an asset or business combination.

IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts


IFRS 14 is an optional standard that allows an entity, whose activities are subject to rate-regulation, to
continue applying most of its existing accounting policies for regulatory deferral account balances upon its
first-time adoption of IFRS. Entities that adopt IFRS 14 must present the regulatory deferral accounts as
separate line items on the statement of financial position and present movements in these account
balances as separate line items in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The
standard requires disclosures on the nature of, and risks associated with, the entity’s rate-regulation and
the effects of that rate-regulation on its financial statements. IFRS 14 is effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Emaar Misr is currently assessing the impact of IFRS 14.

61
DESCRIPTION OF EMAAR MISR
The following discussion of the Company should be read in conjunction with the information relating to Emaar
Misr’s business in the sections titled ‘‘Operating and Financial Review’’, ‘‘Risk Factors’’, ‘‘Material Contracts’’,
‘‘Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions’’ and other information about Emaar Misr included
elsewhere in this Offering Memorandum. This description contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. Emaar Misr’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-
looking statements as a result of certain factors including, but not limited to, those discussed in ‘‘Forward-
Looking Statements’’, ‘‘Presentation of Operating and Other Information’’ and ‘‘Risk Factors’’.

Overview
Emaar Misr is a leading real estate developer in Egypt focusing on premium-quality master-planned
lifestyle communities in prime locations that are anchored by landmark developments.
Emaar Misr has a strong portfolio of developments distributed among three projects under development
and a plot of undeveloped land in prime locations in East, West and Central Cairo as well as the North
Coast:
• Project Uptown Cairo is a 4.5 million square metre project under development designed to be a
mixed-use development in Central Cairo situated at the highest point in the city, built 200 metres
above sea level with easy accessibility from East, West and Central Cairo. Project Uptown Cairo has
the potential to become a new iconic city centre in Cairo. The project has been designed by world-
class architects and designers and is expected to be the first gated, integrated community project in
Central Cairo offering a wide range of amenities, including world-class shopping centres, a business
park, hotels, a spa, an 18-hole golf course and club house. Project Uptown Cairo will be home to
Emaar Misr’s flagship development, Emaar Square, a world-class shopping, residential, leisure and
entertainment complex comprising an open-air retail mall and office space designed to attract global
brands and leading local and international companies, a five star and a five-plus-star hotel, including
the first ‘‘The Address’’ branded hotel in Cairo and a state-of-the-art entertainment and leisure
centre.
• Project Marassi is a 6.5 million square metre project under development that is expected to become a
year-round resort situated in a prime location in one of the most attractive stretches of the North
Coast with easy accessibility from local and international airports. Project Marassi is designed to
feature a fully-integrated resort community, retail space, twelve anchor hotels, including three
boutique hotels, an 18-hole golf course with a golf academy and clubhouse and a 250 slip yacht
international marina inspired by the French Riviera which, due to its unique location and features, is
difficult to replicate in the region and is therefore expected to transform the area into a premier
international tourist destination. The Marassi Marina is designed to be integrated with customs and
immigration approvals for ease of access and benefits from a unique location and unmatched climate
along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the Mediterranean.
• Project Mivida is a 3.7 million square metre project under development designed to be a fully-
integrated ecologically friendly and energy-efficient community with lush landscapes in a strategic
location in New Cairo City. It is strategically located on New Cairo’s main road and is in close
proximity to the American University in Cairo and Cairo International Airport. Designed by world-
class architects and designers, Project Mivida is expected to be a fully-fledged family-oriented, leisure
and work destination featuring a range of amenities, including a business park, educational, sports and
leisure facilities and a 33-acre central park. Project Mivida will feature Mivida Downtown, a boulevard
shopping area featuring international and local brands strategically located in the centre of New Cairo
City. Mivida Downtown was designed to comprise wide pedestrian streets, water features, full
spectrum dining and easy accessibility to the town centre with multiple access points combining to
provide an unrivalled experience to visitors.
• Cairo Gate is a plot of land of approximately 0.6 million square metres in 6th of October City with
frontage of the Cairo-Alexandria Desert highway, an area with limited land offerings, which makes
Cairo Gate a strong value proposition.
As of 31 March 2015, the cumulative number of residential units sold for future delivery and the number of
residential units delivered amounted to 4,676 and 1,850 (including serviced and branded apartments),
respectively. Emaar Misr’s net sales for the three months ended 31 March 2015 were EGP 2.0 billion
compared to EGP 1.0 billion for the three months ended 31 March 2014. Emaar Misr’s net sales for 2014

62
amounted to EGP 7.1 billion, an increase of 71% compared to EGP 4.2 billion in 2013, which in turn was
an increase of 27% compared to EGP 3.3 billion in 2012. Emaar Misr’s total revenue amounted to
EGP 751.5 million for the three months ended 31 March 2015, EGP 2.6 billion for the year ended
31 December 2014, EGP 1.2 billion for the year ended 31 December 2013 and EGP 0.8 billion for the year
ended 31 December 2012.
In a market sample comparing Emaar Misr to certain listed Egyptian real estate developers, Emaar Misr’s
share of total new net sales in Egypt increased from 10% in 2010 to 36% in 2014, which represents an
EGP 6.0 billion increase in Emaar Misr’s total new net sales in a market sample that grew by
EGP 8.7 billion. Emaar Misr’s increase in sales during that period was partially the result of the brand’s
strength and Management’s confidence in continuing to invest, construct and deliver residential units
despite the unprecedented market conditions.

History
Emaar Properties PJSC, a premier Middle Eastern developer, founded Emaar Misr in 2005 as a joint
venture with a local partner, Artoc Group for Investment and Development S.A.E. In 2007, Emaar
Properties acquired the local partner’s 60% stake in Emaar Misr, thereby acquiring full ownership in the
company. Because Emaar Misr was not a party to the transaction, it did not record a cost for the
acquisition.
In order to implement Emaar Misr’s business strategy of creating master-planned lifestyle communities,
Emaar Misr acquired its first property, Uptown Cairo, in August 2005. In February 2006, it acquired the
land (through a tender process) that would later become Project Marassi. In 2006, Emaar Misr acquired
the Cairo Gate land plot in West Cairo. In September 2006, it acquired the Mivida land plot. In June 2007,
a platinum launch event (Marassi and Uptown Cairo), the first launch for Emaar Misr’s projects in Egypt,
took place. In February 2009, the initial launch of Project Mivida took place.

Corporate Structure
Emaar Misr has no subsidiaries.

Competitive Strengths
Emaar Misr believes it differentiates itself from its competition through the strength of the internationally
recognised Emaar brand, its strategically located land bank acquired at attractive rates, its offer of fully
integrated lifestyle communities of premium quality standards, its strong expertise across asset classes
leveraging Emaar Properties’ proven expertise and capabilities, and its retention of revenue generating
commercial assets.

A leading developer in a large, fast-growing market with robust fundamentals


Management believes that Emaar Misr operates in an attractive market with robust fundamentals
supporting further sustainable growth.
• Attractive demographic characteristics. All of Emaar Misr’s projects are located in Egypt, whose
population of 88 million is the largest in the MENA region and grew at a compound annual growth
rate of 2.5% between 2009 and 2014 (sources: Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics,
June 2014; Business Monitor International, March 2015). Cairo, which is Emaar Misr’s principal
target city for residential, retail and office projects, is the most populous city in the MENA region,
with more than 15.6 million people as of January 2015 (source: Demographia World Urban Areas:
11th Annual Edition, 2015) and one of the most densely populated metropolitan areas in the world.
According to Egypt’s Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics, as of January 2014, 60.9%
of the Egyptian population was below the age of thirty. These attractive demographics are expected to
be complemented by government initiatives to attract major foreign direct investment and to support
domestic confidence and purchasing power, which are expected to aid Egypt’s return to long-term
growth after a period of stagnation.
• Attractive economic environment. Management believes that the economic environment in Egypt will
lead to continued growth in demand for premium quality properties in Egypt. Egypt’s real GDP grew
at a rate of 2.2% and 2.1% in 2012 and 2013, respectively, with real GDP expected to further increase
by 2.2% in 2014 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Going forward, the real GDP
growth rate is expected to further increase to 4.0% in 2015, 4.2% in 2016 and 4.4% in 2017 (source:

63
Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Moreover, Egypt has experienced relatively high
inflation, with consumer prices increasing by 7.8% in 2012, 9.5% in 2013 and expected to increase by
10.1% in 2014 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Going forward, high inflation in
Egypt is expected to continue in the following three years, with estimates of 9.5% in 2015, 8.7% in
2016 and 9.0% in 2017 (source: Economist Intelligence Unit, February 2015). Management believes
that high inflation rates combined with the relative absence of other investment opportunities should
encourage investment in quality real estate properties as a hedge against inflation.
• Increasing demand for premium residential properties. Management believes that Egypt’s attractive
demographic characteristics combined with increasing levels of disposable income will drive demand
for premium quality housing in and around Cairo as well as secondary homes located in attractive
locations on the North Coast, a segment that Emaar Misr targets through Project Marassi. Personal
disposable income (after taxes and deductions) in Egypt is expected to grow at a compound annual
growth rate of 13% between 2015 and 2017 compared to 10% from 2009 to 2014 (source: Economist
Intelligence Unit, February 2015). The favourable prospects for residential development are further
supported by the gradual increase in mortgage finance availability, which may increase the
accessibility of residential housing.
• Underserved retail market coupled with limited quality of offerings. The supply of high-quality retail
space in Cairo remains considerably limited with only 0.07 square metres of retail space per capita in
2013 and is significantly lower than other major cities in the MENA region (source: DTZ as of 2013).
By 2018, the GLA per capita in Cairo is expected to increase to 0.15 square metres per capita
reflecting an increase in purchasing power of the local population (source: DTZ, March 2015). Emaar
Misr intends to increase its presence in the retail segment going forward in an attempt to capitalise on
unmet demand for high-quality retail space. Management’s development plans encompass a target of
more than 250,000 square metres of retail GLA.
• Attractive prospects for office space. Although Management believes that office space has historically
been undersupplied in Egypt, economic growth in the country is expected to support long-term tenant
demand. According to Jones Lang LaSalle, Cairo’s office stock GLA in the fourth quarter of 2014 was
0.9 million square metres which is lower than in most other countries in the MENA region. The
market for office space has historically been concentrated in downtown Cairo with no recognised
central business district. Furthermore, the lack of office supply has led to the transformation of
previously residential properties into office space. Management believes that Emaar Misr is well
positioned to capture growth opportunities in this sector due to the strategic location of its projects in
and around Cairo where companies continue to search for new land plots to develop adjacent to
major transportation hubs. Management’s development plans encompass a target of more than
150,000 square metres of office GLA.
• Growing hospitality segment. Leveraging on the expected increase in demand for premium quality
hotels, secondary homes and growth of the internal and external tourism industry, Management’s
development plans include a target of 15 hotels, comprising approximately 4,000 hotel room keys and
serviced and branded apartments, most of which are expected to be part of Project Marassi located on
the North Coast. Emaar Misr intends to increase its investments in this segment where Management
believes there are significant growth opportunities.

Business model focused on integrated master plans supported by robust project development processes
Emaar Misr’s business model is to develop premium-quality master-planned lifestyle communities in prime
locations that are anchored by landmark developments. Management believes that Emaar Misr’s product
offering is differentiated by the quality and design of its projects combined with the flexibility under its
master plans to modify its projects, including the mix of properties, on an on-going basis in order to adapt
to prevailing and changing market trends and customers’ preferences.
• Rare offer of a dynamic portfolio of premium-quality move-in ready residential properties. Emaar Misr
offers premium-quality, fully-finished and move-in ready residential units (including apartments, twin
houses, town houses and villas) that cater to differing needs and various consumer price levels.
Management believes that this is a rare offer in the Egyptian real estate market currently dominated
by semi-finished residential properties.
• Anchored by landmark developments. Each project is designed to be anchored by a landmark
development comprising a wide range of amenities, such as golf courses, golf club houses, community

64
centres, central parks, sports and leisure centres, schools and medical centres, thereby creating
self-contained, fully-integrated master-planned lifestyle communities.
• Combined with robust project development processes across all stages of a project life cycle. Emaar Misr
relies on a well-proven and efficient development process from the initial stages of opportunity
identification to the delivery and completion of a project that is underpinned by an internal
operational structure designed to emphasise accountability and quality control. Throughout the
master planning phase, Emaar Misr focuses on delivering premium quality products consistent with
the Emaar brand name. As part of this process, Emaar Misr centralises the design and tender phases
with the aim of creating economies of scale that improve value across all of its projects. Emaar Misr
coordinates the launch of residential units with retail and office space, gradually increasing the supply
of residential properties to allow for the appreciation of home values and residential areas through
heightened visibility and availability of amenities. Following the delivery of residential units, Emaar
Misr retains control of the community and facility management function in order to manage the
customer experience and preserve the community environment.

Clearly differentiated portfolio of premium quality developments


Emaar Misr has a clearly differentiated portfolio of developments distributed among three projects under
development and a plot of undeveloped land.
• Project Uptown Cairo has the potential to become a new iconic city centre in Cairo. The project has
been designed by world-class architects and designers and is expected to be the only gated, integrated
community project in Central Cairo offering a wide range of amenities, including world-class shopping
centres, a business park, hotels, a spa, an 18-hole golf course and a club house. Project Uptown Cairo
will be home to Emaar Misr’s flagship development, Emaar Square, a world-class shopping,
residential, leisure and entertainment complex comprising an open-air retail mall and office space
designed to attract global brands and leading local and international companies, a five star and a
five-plus-star hotel, including the first ‘‘The Address’’ branded hotel in Cairo and a state-of-the-art
entertainment and leisure centre. See ‘‘—Projects under Development—Project Uptown Cairo’’.
• Project Marassi is designed to feature a fully-integrated, exclusive resort community, retail space,
twelve anchor hotels, including three boutique hotels, an 18-hole golf course with a golf academy and
clubhouse and a 250 slip yacht international Marina inspired by the French Riviera which, due to its
unique location and features, is difficult to replicate in the region and is therefore expected to
transform the area into a premier international tourist destination. The Marassi Marina is designed to
be integrated with customs and immigration approvals for ease of access and benefits from a unique
location and unmatched climate along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the Mediterranean. See
‘‘—Projects under Development—Project Marassi’’.
• Project Mivida is designed as a community development with environmentally friendly components
and green landscapes and amenities that are planned to cover more than 80% of the project’s land.
Project Mivida is designed to feature Mivida Downtown, a boulevard shopping area featuring
international and local brands strategically located in the centre of New Cairo City. Mivida Downtown
is designed to comprise wide pedestrian streets, water features, full spectrum dining and easy
accessibility to the town centre with multiple access points combining to provide an unrivalled
experience to visitors. See ‘‘—Projects under Development—Project Mivida’’.

Retain most commercial assets to optimise future revenue streams and cash flows
Emaar Misr’s business model is to continue to build a portfolio of residential properties for sale while
growing its presence in the premium retail, hospitality and office segments through ownership of
investment properties that are leased to tenants. Premium quality retail and hospitality properties are
planned across all projects while office properties are planned for Project Uptown Cairo and Project
Mivida. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr has launched its first shopping mall
(MPorium in Project Marassi) and has sold serviced and branded apartments in Project Marassi.
Emaar Misr’s business model is designed to allow it to capture growth opportunities in different market
segments and, by retaining control over its commercial properties, to enable it to manage the mix of
occupants and retailers to better reflect consumer preferences and adapt to changes in the market.
Management believes that this strategy will improve the breadth and stability of Emaar Misr’s revenue

65
streams and cash flow in the medium term by including sustainable rental income, therefore allowing
Emaar Misr to achieve a more diversified revenue profile over the medium to long term.

Resilient and cash generative financial model


As of 31 March 2015, the cumulative number of residential units sold for future delivery and the number of
residential units delivered amounted to 4,676 and 1,850 (including serviced apartments), respectively. As of
31 March 2015, cumulative net sales since inception amounted to EGP 23.9 billion, the cumulative amount
of collections amounted to EGP 11.0 billion and the cumulative amount of revenue amounted to
EGP 6.1 billion. Emaar Misr’s net sales, revenue and collections increased in 2012, 2013 and 2014 despite
recent political and economic changes in Egypt. Management believes that the decision to continue
construction and development across all projects during that time further enhanced Emaar Misr’s
credibility in the local market and reinforced its position as a leading real estate developer in Egypt while
providing it with the ability to achieve favourable pricing of its properties.
Emaar Misr’s net sales for the three months ended 31 March 2015 were EGP 2.0 billion compared to
EGP 1.0 billion for the three months ended 31 March 2014. Emaar Misr’s net sales for 2014 amounted to
EGP 7.1 billion, an increase of 71% compared to EGP 4.2 billion in 2013 and EGP 3.3 billion in 2012. In a
market sample comparing Emaar Misr to certain listed Egyptian real estate developers, Emaar Misr’s
share of total new net sales in Egypt grew from 10% in 2010 to 36% in 2014, which represents an
EGP 6.0 billion increase in Emaar Misr’s total new net sales in a market sample that grew by
EGP 8.7 billion. The strength and resilience of Emaar Misr’s brand is shown by the low number of
cancellations relative to annual net sales, with only EGP 32.4 million in cancellations compared to
EGP 2.0 billion in net sales for the three months ended 31 March 2015.
Emaar Misr’s total revenue amounted to EGP 751.5 million for the three months ended 31 March 2015,
EGP 2.6 billion for the year ended 31 December 2014, EGP 1.2 billion for the year ended 31 December
2013 and EGP 0.8 billion for the year ended 31 December 2012. Gross margin was 30.0% for the three
months ended 31 March 2015 and 29.8%, 34.5% and 28.1%, for the years ended 31 December 2014, 2013
and 2012 respectively.
Emaar Misr’s cash flow management supports residential development funding in an efficient manner. It is
based on an off-plan sales model that is designed to provide Emaar Misr with cash inflow prior to the
commencement of construction combined with a coordinated phasing strategy aimed at timing the launch
and completion of its residential properties with the roll-out of retail, office and hospitality properties and
other amenities. As part of this business model, Emaar Misr develops infrastructure as an initial step in
development, including site grading, roads and utility networks, and combines it with the launch of certain
amenities at an early stage, which are designed to have a positive impact on the demand for and value of
the residential properties over time. For example, the beach club in Project Marassi and the golf clubhouse
in Project Uptown Cairo were completed prior to the delivery of the first residential units, allowing
prospective buyers to experience the quality of those amenities. Management believes that this approach
had a positive impact on the demand for residential units in those projects.

Dedicated and experienced management team


The senior management team of Emaar Misr is comprised of experienced and dedicated professionals who
possess a deep understanding of, and significant experience in, the Egyptian real estate market, led by
Mohamed El Dahan, its Managing Director, who joined Emaar Properties in 2005 and has experience in
the real estate, construction, financial and banking industries across the region. Members of the senior
management team are long-standing employees of Emaar Misr and/or Emaar Properties and are
committed to the development and success of Emaar Misr’s business. Emaar Misr uses a management
incentive program that links performance to compensation based on specific key performance indicators.
Many of the members of the senior management team accumulated significant knowledge and expertise
through involvement in all of Emaar Properties’ major projects, such as Burj Khalifa, The Dubai Mall and
‘‘The Address’’ hotels. Emaar Misr’s senior management team oversees and manages the operations at all
stages of the project life cycle. Emaar Misr also intends to adopt certain international corporate
governance practices, including independent directorships and a relationship agreement with Emaar
Properties and service agreements with some of Emaar Properties’ affiliates. See ‘‘Certain Relationships
and Related Party Transactions—Relationship Agreement’’ and ‘‘Certain Relationships and Related Party
Transactions—Service Agreements’’.

66
Benefit from ownership by the premier Middle Eastern developer
Management believes that Emaar Misr’s association with Emaar Properties, its controlling shareholder
and a leading real estate developer with cross-asset class expertise in the MENA region, is one of Emaar
Misr’s competitive advantages. Emaar Properties has led Emaar Misr through significant growth since 2005
during which time it provided Emaar Misr with highly valuable support, know-how, expertise and business
planning at each level of the project development life cycle, including distinctive development concepts,
premium quality properties, sophisticated planning and quality controls from the design phase through the
property management and maintenance phases. Emaar Properties’ reputation and experience are based on
its development of some of the most significant master-planned projects in the UAE, including Downtown
Dubai, Burj Khalifa, BLVD Heights, ‘‘The Address Dubai’’, Armani Hotel in Dubai, Arabian Ranches,
Emirates Living and Dubai Marina. These successful urban and resort destinations each contribute to
Emaar Properties’ status as one of the largest real estate developers globally by market capitalisation.
Following the Combined Offering, Emaar Misr expects to continue to benefit from the support and
expertise of Emaar Properties, which will remain Emaar Misr’s controlling shareholder. Furthermore,
Management believes that the long-standing experience and know-how of Emaar Malls Group (owner and
operator of Dubai Mall, the world’s largest shopping and entertainment destination and a member of the
Emaar Group) and Emaar Retail Group will be instrumental in developing and operating Emaar Misr’s
retail properties in Project Uptown Cairo and Mivida. Management also believes that the track record,
experience, brand name and operational excellence of Emaar Hospitality Group will provide strategic
value to the development and operations of ‘‘The Address’’ and ‘‘Vida’’ hotels across Emaar Misr’s
projects.

Strategy
Emaar Misr’s vision is to become Egypt’s premier lifestyle community provider, through developing world-
class projects to fulfil the aspirations of its customer base. Emaar Misr’s aim is to continue to maintain a
strong market position while increasing revenue and profitability. Emaar Misr intends to pursue the
following business and growth strategies.

Customer centric strategy


Emaar Misr’s philosophy is to focus on its customers as a top priority. As part of this customer-centric
strategy, Emaar Misr will seek to prioritise customer satisfaction through delivery of premium-quality
projects that respond to the particular needs of its customers combined with dedication to customer
service. Emaar Misr intends to continue to collect marketing information about target customer
demographics and tenants into a sophisticated database and to use this information to build long-term
relationships with its customers. Information about prospective buyers and tenants is sourced from Emaar
Misr’s own selling experience and through effective marketing tools including walkout surveys, market
research and best seller and slow mover studies in order to allow Emaar Misr to tailor master plans and
designs while providing a sense of exclusivity and creating new lifestyle standards. Following delivery of the
residential units, Emaar Misr will continue to maintain robust facility management and controls in order to
preserve the high-quality customer experience and the community atmosphere.

Introducing innovative products and concepts


Emaar Misr’s master plans are not constrained by a particular design, model or product which, combined
with the flexibility provided by the dynamic phasing-in of amenities and residential units and the
application of best practices in the local market, enables Emaar Misr to be more innovative, creative and
flexible in designing and executing its projects over time. Emaar Misr’s record of innovation includes
Project Uptown Cairo, which is designed as the first mixed-use gated project in Central Cairo and will
comprise Emaar Square which is expected to be Egypt’s first and largest outdoor retail and lifestyle venue.
Project Mivida is designed as a community development with environmentally friendly components and
green landscapes and amenities that are planned to cover a significant part of the project’s land. In Project
Marassi, Emaar Misr has constructed two swimmable spots between the villages and is currently designing
swimmable lagoons in villages Verdi and Blanca, and a year-round 250 slip yacht marina on the North
Coast.

67
Maximising value from its property portfolio through dynamic phasing of launches
Emaar Misr intends to continue to implement a coordinated phasing strategy aimed at timing the launch
and completion of its residential properties with the roll-out of retail, office and hospitality properties and
other amenities, thereby allowing for a faster creation of thriving, fully integrated and self-contained
lifestyle communities. As part of this strategy, Emaar Misr intends to continue to sell fully-finished,
move-in ready residential properties in small units comprising completed villages and parcels within its
projects which are expected to act as a catalyst for incremental leasing demand through increased property
foot traffic in the projects. Furthermore, Emaar Misr plans to continue to launch certain amenities at an
early stage with the aim of having a positive impact on the demand for and value of the residential
properties over time while also building sales momentum. Management believes that the phasing strategy
will provide Emaar Misr with the flexibility needed to respond efficiently to changes in the Egyptian real
estate market and changing consumer preferences by allowing Emaar Misr to tailor its products.

Adherence to premium quality standards


Emaar Misr plans to further establish and maintain its strong market position and brand image by
continuing to develop and construct premium residential and commercial real estate and equate the
quality of both with Emaar Misr’s brand name. Management believes that Emaar Misr’s brand name in
Egypt is a key differentiating factor and central to maintaining customer trust and loyalty. In order to
ensure that its properties and designs are of the highest standards, Emaar Misr plans to continue to engage
carefully selected international and regional architects, designers, planners, engineers and contractors
whom Management believes are at the forefront of the industry in terms of ability to create innovative and
differentiated project designs. Management intends to select renowned global brands and leading local and
international companies as tenants for its retail and office properties, as well as premium hospitality
operators, with the aim of ensuring that its developments feature premium quality services and amenities.
The commitment to deliver premium quality properties is supported through rigorous internal quality
management standards and procedures that Emaar Misr applies at each stage of project execution,
including managing communities and facilities after construction of properties is completed.

Retaining control of commercial assets


While historically the residential segment has been the core and primary focus of Emaar Misr, in the future
Emaar Misr intends to retain the ownership and lease the majority of its retail, office and hospitality assets,
including schools and hospitals while preserving flexibility to sell selected commercial assets depending on
prevailing market conditions. This strategy is designed to allow Emaar Misr to diversify its income streams
and improve cash flows by generating recurring rental income from commercial properties while retaining
quality control over its amenities. Emaar Misr’s target contribution from rental income is approximately
30-40% of total revenue. Emaar Misr expects that its effective management of commercial properties may
further appreciate residential property values.
In the medium to long term, Emaar Misr intends to develop more than:
• 6.2 million square metres of total GFA across all of its projects,
• 250,000 square metres of retail GLA across all of its projects,
• 150,000 square metres of office GLA in Project Uptown Cairo and Project Mivida, and
• 15 hotels, representing approximately 4,000 hotel room keys and branded and serviced apartments
across all of its projects.
In order to implement this strategy, Emaar Misr intends to rely on its strong market position, brand image,
execution capabilities, skills and a track record of successful sales as well as expertise and know-how of
Emaar Malls and Emaar Hospitality Group to seek leading global brands as anchor tenants for its projects.

Disciplined and highly selective approach to additional land bank acquisitions


Emaar Misr intends to continue to expand its land bank in Egypt through a disciplined approach of highly
selective acquisitions of large plots with opportunistic consideration of smaller high-quality locations that
Management believes would supplement Emaar Misr’s current portfolio and have the potential of
generating attractive revenue. Emaar Misr’s main focus is the immediate development of its existing land
bank with speculative additional acquisitions limited to exceptional opportunities. As part of this strategy,
Emaar Misr intends to focus on opportunities that can achieve a target levered project internal rate of

68
return of approximately 16% and an achievable minimum gross margin of approximately 25%, with
particular attention to the availability of Cairo-based land plots. See ‘‘Important Note Regarding the Target
Rates of Return’’. For such acquisitions, Emaar Misr may selectively consider entering into joint ventures or
revenue sharing projects, while maintaining full management control over the projects.
Management believes that Emaar Misr has developed a rigorous, disciplined and highly selective land
acquisition methodology. Rooted in an analytical approach to decision making, the methodology
emphasises risk identification and mitigation, and screens for fundamental asset value with a high
risk-adjusted return potential. It is designed to enable Management to identify, evaluate and act upon land
acquisition and development opportunities based on a variety of indicators, including demand for
residential housing that exceeds available and expected supply, home affordability, and areas with
well-regarded educational systems and institutions, high educational attainment levels, accommodative
transportation infrastructure, proximity to major trade corridors, positive employment trends and diverse
employment bases.

Project Life Cycle


Emaar Misr manages in-house all stages of the development of its projects, from land acquisition to the
maintenance of completed properties.
The process begins with the identification and assessment of potential land plots for purchase. Land
determined to be suitable for acquisition must first pass through legal evaluations, marketing and sales
analyses and financial viability projections which are reviewed by multiple teams at Emaar Misr. In the
next step, the land enters the master planning phase where the theme and initial plans for the project are
outlined. If approved by the development division, the land enters the design phase where the overall
vision for the project is determined. If Management and the Board of Directors approve the design,
marketing and sales of units begin and construction and development contracts are awarded.
Emaar Misr has implemented a scalable management structure to execute its business model and manage
its projects. As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr employs approximately 426 employees. Where deemed
necessary, Emaar Misr selectively accesses supplemental input from outside professionals to benefit from
the input of third parties, some of whom are leaders in their respective fields. See ‘‘Management—
Management Structure’’ for a chart that sets forth the management structure and divisions of Emaar Misr.
The overall process can be broken down into the following key stages:

Project Assessment and Land Acquisition Strategy


Historically, Emaar Misr sought out potential opportunities in marketable regions in Egypt with a specific
focus on East and West Cairo. The initial stages of project development begin with the idea generation and
assessment of potential land acquisition opportunities. The general strategy for the land acquisition is
determined by the Managing Director of Emaar Misr after consultation with the Board of Directors.
Management seeks to identify and purchase land plots to either expand current projects or launch new
developments. To do this, Management relies on a number of channels to identify market opportunities,
including participating in government auctions and obtaining market intelligence developed through senior
management’s relationships and contacts. Historically, Emaar Misr has acquired land from the State,
State-owned companies and private parties.
The decision to invest in a particular land plot is guided by several factors. First, Management seeks large
plots suitable for master planning with individual exceptions for smaller high-quality locations. Emaar
Misr’s management, finance, legal and development teams perform the initial assessment of a property.
Initial assessment includes analysing a number of factors, such as the location of the land, potential
consumer demand, proximity to main development areas, accessibility and infrastructure availability, with a
particular focus on codes, limitations and regulations set by relevant government authorities. Subsequently,
the teams conduct preliminary due diligence on the land, including a conceptual planning, soil
investigation, land efficiency and usage, construction risk assessment and a feasibility study. In the
conceptual planning stage, the development division plans, creates and evaluates a development profile of
the planned project. The development division, in coordination with finance and business analysis
departments, undertakes a detailed analysis to determine the viability of the project and expected returns,
taking into consideration the respective acquisition cost, payment terms, hard and soft cost estimates and
the ability of the land to generate cash flow. Management targets projects that achieve an expected levered
internal rate of return of about 16% with minimum gross margin of about 25%. See ‘‘Important Note

69
Regarding the Target Rates of Return’’ and ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Emaar Misr’s Business and
Industry—There can be no assurance that any targets, including Emaar Misr’s target levered project investment
rates of return, will be achieved’’. In the risk assessment stage, the management, finance, legal and
marketing departments evaluate the conceptual plan with a focus on potential barriers in the development
process. The conceptual plan and risk assessment ultimately lead to a detailed project viability analysis
which is designed to assess the likely returns of the project, the acquisition costs and payment terms in light
of the risk involved. Emaar Misr may also engage external market consultants, planning and design firms if
the initial assessment signals viability of the project from a financial and legal perspective.
The Board of Directors approve the final proposal for acquiring the land based on certain criteria,
including a minimum expected return on investment, the tax efficiency of the development, the legal
position with regard to the title and all necessary governmental authorisations. Upon approval by the
Board of Directors, the legal director coordinates and attempts to resolve any land ownership issues, with
the assistance of the legal and governmental relations department as needed. Emaar Misr then proceeds to
submit a bid in a tender process or otherwise seeks to acquire the land.
Depending on the available tax exemptions granted by law, Emaar Misr may enjoy certain tax exemptions
or moratoriums on payments for a set period of time. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, the
Company’s activity of planning and establishment of urban communities and furnishing such communities
with the required utilities and services is tax exempt until 2018.

Master Planning
The master planning phase begins once the land is acquired. This stage of the process is designed to ensure
that the project will reflect the Emaar Misr brand and quality standards, which are checked on an on-going
basis by quality assurance and control teams at each stage in the development process. Emaar Misr
organises the master planning of its properties through a team of experienced in-house professionals who
strategically coordinate the process by outsourcing to external consultants and integrating their designs.
These professionals work directly with select external master planners, which have included Wimberly
Allison Tong & Goo and JZMK Partners. Additional external advisers consulted throughout the process
have included MVE & Partners, Inc, RTKL Associates, MACRO Consulting Group, AECOM Technology
Corporation, SB Architects, Genseler & Associates, Inc., Harradine Golf and Burton Architecture. The
master planning phase is led by the development department, chaired by the Chief Development Officer.
The department consists of development directors, senior managers and technical design directors,
together tasked with producing the master plan.
Emaar Misr also leverages its network and seeks advice from external consultants, design firms and others.
Typically, this involves consultation with various stakeholders, including relevant governmental bodies and
agencies (handling traffic, infrastructure), potential independent utility providers as well as architects and
designers. Management believes that this network helps Emaar Misr maintain and reinforce its brand
image of building high-quality fully-integrated master-planned lifestyle communities that conform to
international standards.
During this stage, the development team coordinates the process of planning out the property with the
finance, business analysis, sales and marketing divisions. The team creates a preliminary land development
strategy and vision which sets out key assumptions and the theme of the project including in relation to
land usage, density, infrastructure expenditures, potential amenities and utilisation of the land as well as
the overall concept, target market, architectural design and the expected timetable for development. The
strategy emphasises key features of the project, in accordance with the internal requirements for different
types of developments. Business analysis teams, in reliance on market research along with the sales team,
are consulted during this process to provide views with respect to the targeted segment, product mix and a
product brief, which includes descriptions of the amenities, style and finishes to the design. A preliminary
financial feasibility study and business plan further outline cash flow assumptions, cost estimates and
expected returns of the project. In the next step, the team creates a development brief that defines key
objectives of the development project in terms of scope, quality, cost and schedule.
The master plan requires approval from the respective executive design boards before the design stage
starts. Emaar Misr has three internal executive design boards responsible for (i) residential, (ii) retail and
commercial and (iii) hospitality properties, with specific standards for completing the design for each type
of property.

70
After receiving the approved master plan, the development director is responsible for the project master
schedule and the project master feasibility study. The governmental relations department, together with
the legal department, then submits the master plan to the relevant Egyptian legislative body to obtain
approvals of the master plan transportation, engineering and other stages.
The competent authority must approve the master plan and future amendments thereto, for any lands sold
to Emaar Misr. The competent authority for Project Mivida is NUCA, for Project Uptown Cairo is the
Governorate of Cairo, for Project Marassi is the Governorate of Matrouh together with the General
Authority for Tourism Development, and for Cairo Gate is the 6th of October City Authority. Generally,
the competent authority does not withhold approval unless the construction would violate building codes
or regulations and no legal exceptions are available. Under certain circumstances, the competent authority
may assess additional fees for amendments to the permitted use of land. For example, Emaar Misr paid
EGP 60 million to amend the utilisation purpose of certain areas of the Uptown Cairo master plan.

Design and Tender Process


Once the master plan is approved, the process enters into the design and tender phase. More detailed
feasibility studies are conducted during this phase and a revised budget for each project is prepared. A
design consultant and a cost consultant are hired to develop (in coordination with and under the guidance
of Emaar Misr’s development director) the concept design and cost plans, the schematic design and cost
plans and detailed design and early works plans.
Development designs include the number of residential phases, the number of residential units to be built
in each phase, the projected square metres for the project, cost projections and a projected timeline for
completion of the project with important milestones.
The tender process is based on a centralised approach with regard to tendering, procurement and contracts
related issues. It involves distribution of work across different contractors, suppliers, subcontractors and
service providers which allows Emaar Misr to strengthen its negotiating power through centralising the
procurement of materials and tendering of packages required for on-going works across the projects and
therefore to benefit from economies of scale.
Emaar Misr relies on leading regional and local contractors in the execution of its works for all business
segments. It also relies on international construction services companies, consultants and project managers
that are involved in the design and construction process including Turner, an internationally renowned
construction company and consultant and an affiliate of Emaar Misr. Once preliminary terms of the tender
are set out, Emaar Misr’s management approves contractors and a contract is prepared by the project
manager. The tender process for facility management and certain other tenders is conducted in-house.
The commercial department of Emaar Misr handles all procurement related tasks. Potential contractors
and consultants are chosen based on their previous experience with Emaar Misr and other firms, financial
and technical proposals submitted by them and feedback reports from third parties. Additionally, the
commercial department negotiates and procures materials for the construction teams, while also
monitoring the market for goods that could replace current supply streams or improve the quality or price
of deliverables.

Infrastructure Construction
Infrastructure construction is the initial step in the overall development of a project. It involves liaising
with the relevant government authorities and independent utility providers, undertaking works related to
site grading, utility networks (water and sewage), road construction, building water treatment plants,
pumping stations and electrical generation facilities. All works in this stage are planned and carried out in
accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and partially financed through residential pre-sales.
This stage is aimed at improving accessibility to the project, developing high-quality infrastructure,
planning and overall construction spending. In certain circumstances, Emaar Misr may elect to develop
certain amenities in early stages of a project in order to attract traffic to the site and help generate
demand. The infrastructure is usually developed in accordance with the development requirements and
can be amended during the construction phase based on actual sales patterns.

71
Marketing, Sales and Leasing
A marketing campaign begins with the preparation of marketing materials which are designed to
strengthen brand awareness and recognition of Emaar Misr’s properties. Emaar Misr has devoted in-house
public relations, media relations, marketing communications, digital marketing, customer relationship
management, event management and corporate social responsibility teams in charge of marketing
activities. According to AC Nielsen, Emaar Misr’s brand recognition and awareness was valued 3.5 on the
2013 Brand Equity Index, which was higher than many of its competitors in Egypt, and 98 on Total Brand
Awareness as of February 2014 (source: Emaar Misr Brand Health Tracker, February 2014).
Prices of units are determined by the development team, following input from the sales, business analysis,
marketing and finance departments and additional advice from external consultants. Price setting is based
on an analysis of the master plan, unit and phase location, survey of the surrounding areas and review of
competitor projects and pricing amongst other factors. Further reviews of prices are conducted prior to the
launch based on demand reports produced by the sales and marketing team. Unlike most real estate
developers in Egypt, Emaar Misr offers primarily fully finished units, which Management believes provides
Emaar Misr with a competitive advantage.
Senior management determines the size of the launch in terms of number and value of units released
based in part on precedent inventory levels from previous launches. Launch events for the residential
projects have historically been successful and positively impacted the demand for the properties. In the
past, approximately 80% of sales were generated at the launch events. As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr
has launched 41 residential villages with a 90% ratio of launched units to sold units. Once a project
launches, Emaar Misr uses an ‘‘off-plan’’ sales model that follows a phased approach to build sales
momentum and increase the value of the project. Approximately 90 representatives work full time on the
sale of units for Emaar Misr. They are located across Emaar Misr’s offices in Project Uptown Cairo,
Project Marassi, Project Mivida, Heliopolis and Mohandessin as well as Dubai to allow it to reach potential
clients outside of Egypt. Management incentivises these sales people with commissions based on source of
the sales, payment terms and stagnant inventory targets, among others.
Emaar Misr attempts to avoid excessive reliance on third parties, such as brokers, to conduct sales and
instead focuses on its capacity to manage the sales and leasing processes in-house. Emaar Misr’s sales in
2014 were completed through the following channels: marketing activities (approximately 32%), online
sales (approximately 33%), sales centres and teams (approximately 26%) and brokers and similar parties
(approximately 9%). The leasing department is responsible for the leasing of retail properties, and the
sales team is responsible for the sales of residential properties and the leasing of commercial properties.
Given Emaar Misr’s planned focus on retail and commercial properties going forward, these two business
segments are expected to become a core function in the future. Emaar Misr uses standardised policies and
procedures, standard lease contracts and criteria selection parameters that are developed by the Emaar
Malls Group to control risk in retail leases.
Emaar Misr has implemented a marketing system designed to increase sales and brand awareness by using
innovative promotional programmes. Emaar Misr markets itself through a variety of channels, including
community events, trade shows, formal programming, online companies, sales books and other print,
digital and televised media. Its Choose Your Neighbour programme allows existing customers to refer their
friends and family for the purchase of extended payment plan units in Emaar Misr’s various projects in
return for financial incentives. It also organises luxury community events with the aim of helping engage
target audiences and stimulate word of mouth and indirect sales. Emaar Misr has made presentations at
major local and international real estate developers’ trade shows as well. Emaar Misr also uses its online
presence and social media for marketing and has been recognised as a leader in online media. Emaar Misr
received the Pan Arab award for the most interactive real estate social media page and best developed real
estate website in the Middle East and Gulf Region for 2012 and 2013, respectively.
Emaar Misr uses a lead management system that is strictly monitored and controlled. Prospective
customers that indicate interest in the company through the internet or call centres typically receive
responses within hours. Furthermore, Emaar Misr polls current and prospective customers with surveys to
improve its marketing strategy with customer feedback.
Emaar Misr’s marketing strategy extends beyond the initial sale or lease of units and includes the entire
customer relationship cycle. Employees monitor customer satisfaction and service quality through
customer relationship management programmes. There is a strong focus on customer retention through

72
innovative programs like the ‘‘Emaar Privilege’’ rewards program and ‘‘We Care’’ communication channel
for existing and potential customers.

Sales and Leasing Terms and Financing Arrangements


Residential Sales
The majority of residential unit sales take place off-plan, typically following a phased approach once initial
construction work has commenced. Typically, at the time the contract is signed a 5% down payment is paid
with submission of post-dated cheques with an additional 10% down payment to follow. Residential
purchasers may choose between two instalment schedules to finance unit purchases. The first option allows
purchasers to pay the purchase price in full by the delivery date. The second option allows purchasers to
choose an extended payment schedule that continues after delivery of the unit, requiring 70-80% payment
prior to delivery with the remainder paid over one to three years. Extended options include an 18% annual
interest rate on the remaining portion, approximately equal to a 12% premium on the initial purchase
price. When a tenant is unable to meet its obligations under the contract, Emaar Misr may assess interest
charges on the amount due and, if further delay occurs, may terminate the contract with fees up to 20% of
the value of the contract. The rates of default by the purchasers were 1.48% during the three months
ended 31 March 2015, 1.27% during the year ended 31 December 2014, 2.17% during the year ended
31 December 2013 and 3.82% during the year ended 31 December 2012. Where customers transfer
ownership or resell units, Emaar Misr is entitled to a portion of the purchase price of the unit if it is not
fully paid or 2% if the unit is fully paid. Additionally, for semi-furnished units, Emaar Misr requires
residents to pay insurance deposits for timely completion of their furnishings.
The off-plan sales model allows Emaar Misr to pre-finance a significant portion of the cost of its projects,
which may include sales prior to the commencement of construction works. This allows Emaar Misr to
compensate for any unexpected shortfalls in profits by increasing the purchase price for the remaining
units.
Following completion of construction, Emaar Misr retains management of the day-to-day operations of the
common areas and infrastructure of its residential developments in order to assure on-going quality of
maintenance.

Customers
As of 31 March 2015, over 90% of Emaar Misr’s customers were Egyptian nationals, with the remainder
coming from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, the United States of America and other countries. Across
Emaar Misr’s properties, approximately 31% of customers were between ages 40 to 50, 23% of customers
were between ages 50 to 60 and 22% of customers were between ages 30 to 40. In terms of gender,
approximately 79% of customers were male and 21% were female. Approximately 86% of customers were
married with 13% single and the remaining widowed. Of the customers with children, approximately 40%
have two children, 32% have three children, 12% have four children and 11% have one child.
Approximately 47% of customers at Emaar Misr’s properties were self-employed, with 42% employed,
5% working as homemakers, 4% students and 1% retired. Only about 1% of customers were unemployed.
Furthermore, approximately 43% of customers earn a monthly income in the range of EGP 45,000 to
EGP 65,000 and 30% of customers earn a monthly income exceeding EGP 65,000.

Retail and Commercial Leases


As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr has leased 5,961 square metres of GLA in Projects Uptown Cairo,
Mivida and Marassi. The lease terms for retail shops and food and beverage outlets are expected to be
between three and five years, and anchor tenants may sign leases for periods up to nine years or longer
with registration of the lease. Comparatively, commercial leases are expected to be for 10 years with rent
escalation clauses included. Emaar Misr aims to use standardised lease agreements for tenants which may
be negotiated further on an individual basis.
The terms of lease agreements will require its retail tenants to pay a security deposit of up to 25% of the
basic rent and common areas and facilities fees, payable by the date of move-in. Commercial tenants will
be required to pay a security deposit of three months’ rental value and administrative and general
expenses. For long-term tenancies, cheques are required to be handed over to Emaar Misr at the beginning
of each subsequent year of tenancy. To pay leases, tenants in Egypt typically use a post-dated cheque
system under which payments are made quarterly. Lease agreements typically contain additional standard
terms and conditions defining the operational scope, rules and regulations associated with the premises,
grace periods for moving in and furnishing the occupancy, applicable law and franchise and agency rights
with appropriate approvals. In some instances, rent may be combined with a revenue sharing arrangement
with Emaar Misr.

73
Construction
Emaar Misr awards tenders and the construction of a project typically commences within six to 18 months
following the launch of a project. The projects department is managed by the Director of Projects and
overseen by the Managing Director. The projects department, together with the external project
management consultant and supervision consultant, are responsible for the supervision of the construction
process. The construction of all types of properties is outsourced to third parties and monitored by daily
and monthly reports highlighting progress and development. Compiled reports with critical issues are
reported to the Managing Director and Chief Development Officer on a monthly basis.
Standard payment terms for construction contracts include a 10-20% advance payment against bank
guarantees with monthly interim payments according to progress of works and payable within 40 days. A
5% deposit is released in two equal payments at substantial and final completion stages, with another 10%
revised contract sum as performance guarantees. Liquidated damages and penalties of up to 10% of the
contract value are assessed for contractor delays in meeting handover dates. Additionally, construction
contracts allow for a one year warranty on defects from handover dates, in which contractors must attend
to requests by Emaar Misr to correct any defects. Alternatively, Emaar Misr may correct defects and bill
this to contractor or deduct it from retained accounts with the contractor.

Delivery and Facility and Community Management


Once delivered to purchasers, the residential units are managed by Emaar Misr’s facility management
department. Its responsibilities include landscaping, irrigation and health and safety. The facility
management department seeks to ensure that Emaar Misr adheres to local regulations at all times. The
department also monitors incident and accident reporting and identifies hazards through internal risk and
environmental assessments. Facility and community management personnel inspect facilities for hazards
and safety compliance, and conduct internal audits to review quality, health, safety and environmental
measures.
Most community facilities are outsourced by Emaar Misr to facility and community management providers
which outsources those services to third-party service providers. The scope of those operations includes
maintenance of public areas and infrastructure which is primarily done through outsourcing engineering,
housekeeping, security and maintenance roles. Residential properties are managed by asset and facility
management whose responsibilities include maintaining the communities’ infrastructure networks. Office
and commercial properties are managed by Emaar Misr. Going forward, some of Emaar Misr’s retail
properties will be managed by Emaar Malls Group. Emaar Misr expects to contract experienced hospitality
companies for the operations of certain Emaar Misr hotels across all projects. The selection of a hospitality
operator is based on the development requirements and the envisaged hospitality offering style. Emaar
Misr Hospitality, a department of Emaar Misr, manages and maintains certain hospitality facilities,
including the club houses in Marassi and Uptown Cairo.
For sold properties (residential and offices), Emaar Misr collects a non-refundable maintenance deposit
placed into an interest bearing account. Interest realised on this deposit is used to pay maintenance
charges. For residential units, the deposit is based on a percentage of the unit price, and this percentage
fee varies depending on the type of property, ranging from 4% to 8%. Fees for leased property are based
on a fixed fee and a variable fee per square metre. When maintenance charges exceed the amount of a
client’s interest realised on their account, Emaar Misr may collect directly from the deposit and invoice
owners accordingly.

Business Lines
All of Emaar Misr’s projects under development include residential units, retail properties and hospitality
areas. Uptown Cairo and Mivida will also contain commercial spaces.

Residential
Residential properties comprise villas, townhouses and apartments forming high-quality fully integrated
master-planned communities. Emaar Misr aims to develop approximately 26,400 residential units
representing approximately 5.0 million square metres of the planned total Gross Floor Area by 2026.

Retail
Retail properties will comprise shopping malls and retail stores. Emaar Square in Uptown Cairo is
designed to be Emaar Misr’s first major retail development, followed by major retail centres in Downtown
Mivida and Marassi Marina. In an attempt to increase income-generating assets and recurring income,
Emaar Misr intends to maintain ownership of those properties and lease the space to tenants. In 2014,
Emaar Misr launched its first shopping mall (MPorium) in Project Marassi. Retail properties are expected
to comprise approximately 0.35 million square metres of the planned total GFA. Management expects
certain tenants to anchor the retail areas. The term ‘‘anchor tenant’’ is not strictly defined by Emaar Misr,
but factors that determine whether a tenant anchors an area include size of occupancy, brand, function and
products or services sold.

Office
Office properties will comprise multi-tenant office properties in Uptown Cairo and Mivida that are
expected to cater to a range of local and multinational corporations. In an attempt to increase income-
generating assets and recurring income, Emaar Misr intends to maintain ownership of the properties and
lease the space to tenants. Office properties are expected to comprise approximately 0.21 million square
metres of the planned total GFA.

Hospitality
Emaar Misr aims for hospitality properties to comprise a target of 15 hotels across Emaar Misr’s three
projects: 12 anchor hotels, three of which will be boutique hotels and one associated with a golf course, in
Project Marassi, two hotels are planned for Project Uptown Cairo and one hotel is planned for Project
Mivida. Emaar Misr intends to sell the plot of land of 13,980 square metres in Project Mivida on which the
hotel is planned to be located. Hotels are designed to comprise serviced apartments, located within the
premises of the hotel, furnished and finished according to the guidelines of the hotel operator.
Hospitality developments are expected to comprise approximately 4,000 keys consisting of hotel rooms and
serviced and branded apartments. Hotels are designed to comprise a total of 2,720 rooms (Project Uptown
Cairo: 280 rooms, Project Mivida: 180 rooms and Project Marassi: 2,260 rooms).
As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr operates one hotel (El Alamein) at Marassi
with 130 keys and 14 villas. In summer 2014, Emaar Misr launched serviced and branded apartments at

75
‘‘The Address’’ hotel, with a target 49 hotel room keys, 68 serviced apartments and 20 branded apartments
(of which 44 serviced and branded apartments have been sold).
In addition, Emaar Misr expects to develop golf courses, educational and medical centres in some of its
fully integrated master-planned communities. These additions are expected to further enhance the value of
the properties and to improve the overall marketability to customers.
As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr’s business lines of retail, commercial and
hospitality do not meet the criteria under IFRS 8 required for reporting segments, and as such, are not
separately disclosed in the Financial Statements. Consequently, all revenues of Emaar Misr in the three
months ended 31 March 2015 and 2014 and the years ended 31 December 2014, 2013 and 2012 were
reported under one segment in the Financial Statements and related primarily to revenue from sales of
residential properties. Management expects that in the future the retail, commercial and hospitality
segments will meet the criteria and be identified as separate reporting segments in accordance with IFRS 8
in addition to the residential segment.

Description of Projects
Emaar Misr currently has three property developments under construction and a plot of undeveloped land.
Emaar Misr’s properties are strategically located in East, West and Central Cairo as well as on the North

Projects under Development


Project Uptown Cairo
Emaar Misr is in the process of developing Uptown Cairo, designed as the first integrated community
development in Central Cairo. Uptown Cairo’s master plan features Emaar Square, which is expected to
be the first outdoor retail and lifestyle venue of its kind in Egypt and one of the largest open air malls in
the Middle East.
Uptown Cairo is located in Mokattam, Central Cairo across 4.5 million square metres of land. The project
is located on scarce land at the highest point in Central Cairo, approximately 200 metres above sea level,
overlooking Cairo and providing a panoramic view of the city. Project Uptown Cairo has the potential to
become a new iconic city centre in Cairo. Wimberly Allison Tong & Goo developed the master plan for the
project. Uptown Cairo features residential areas, a school, medical centres, a business park, hotels, retail
stores, leisure developments and an 18-hole golf course. Emaar Drive, a three-lane highway, facilitates easy
access to Uptown Cairo from East, West and Central Cairo, and a network of new roads under
construction are expected to increase accessibility to and within Uptown Cairo.
Emaar Misr acquired the land from El Nasr Company for Housing and Development (‘‘El Nasr
Company’’) in August 2005 and construction commenced in 2007. Subject to the payment of an additional
EGP 19 million for an increase in the land area as per a survey report, Emaar Misr has paid the purchase
price in full. Title to the land has not yet been registered to Emaar Misr and Emaar Misr is in the process
of registering the land in coordination with the seller and the Governorate of Cairo. See ‘‘Risk Factors—

77
Risks Relating to Emaar Misr’s Business and Industry—Developers, including Emaar Misr, face legal
complexities and uncertainties in obtaining, retaining and enforcing title to land in Egypt’’ and ‘‘Material
Contracts—Land and Property Contracts—Uptown Cairo: Preliminary Sale Agreement’’. The master plan for
the project was approved in 2008.
In June 2007, the Uptown Cairo sales centre opened along with the Street of Dreams, featuring fully
furnished model homes. Sales of residential units began in 2007 during the Platinum Launch of Uptown
Cairo and Marassi. The award-winning Golf Club-House opened in 2011. Management expects the first
nine holes of the golf course to be operating in 2016 with the remainder to open by the end of 2019.
Delivery of residential units began at the end of 2012. As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr has delivered 320
residential units, representing approximately 79,131 GFA.

Retail Developments
Emaar Misr plans to construct approximately 209,000 square metres of retail GFA, with an emphasis on
open air retail centres featuring luxury and fashion brands. Retail space is expected to be located primarily
at Emaar Square, the landmark development of Project Uptown Cairo. See ‘‘—Emaar Square’’ below.

Office Developments
Emaar Misr plans to construct approximately 98,000 square metres of GFA for commercial space,
consisting of an office park for large and small businesses that is expected to be located at Emaar Square.
See ‘‘—Emaar Square’’ below. Emaar Misr’s strategy is to sell 30% of the office space and lease the
remaining 70% of the office space. The majority of the total office portfolio is expected to be financed
through office sales.

Hospitality Developments
Emaar Misr plans to construct approximately 84,000 square metres of hospitality area in Uptown Cairo,
including a five star and a five-plus star hotel, including the first ‘‘The Address’’ branded hotel in Cairo.
See ‘‘—Emaar Square’’ below. Emaar Misr expects to build boutique hotels in villages, as well, for local
use.

Emaar Square
Emaar Misr is in the concept design stage of developing Emaar Square, a project developed with the vision
to become an iconic city centre catering to domestic and tourist demand for retail and lifestyle venues. It is
expected to be the first outdoor retail and lifestyle venue of its kind in Egypt and one of the largest open
air malls in the Middle East. With a GFA of over 850,000 square metres, Emaar Square’s master plan
features hospitality centres, residential areas, office space and an open air retail area intended to attract
numerous global brands and leading local and international companies. RTKL Associates and
Dar Al-Handasah designed Emaar Square as part of a consortium of designers with input from the Emaar
Malls Group. Emaar Square is planned to be strategically located in the North Eastern area of Uptown
Cairo for ease of accessibility, and is expected to open in 2021 with a tentative completion of 2024.

Project Marassi
Inspired by Europe’s renowned marinas and the French Riviera, Emaar Misr is in the process of
developing Marassi as a premium year-round international tourism destination located in the moderate
climate of the North Coast. Marassi’s master plan features Marassi Marina, a port designed to be an
international yacht marina.

81
Marassi stretches across approximately 6.5 million square metres of land along a 6.25 kilometre
Mediterranean Sea coastline. The architectural styles of the Mediterranean inspired the design of the
Marassi development, reflected in the design’s backdrops of beaches, greenery, waterways and lagoons.
Wimberly Alison Tong & Goo designed Marassi’s master plan in cooperation with other globally renowned
architects and designers. Marassi’s master plan features a premium beach resort, residential units
(including plans for 52 Armani-designed villas), a 250 slip yacht marina, a town centre, a wellness centre,
an entertainment centre, an 18-hole golf course (designed by Harradine Golf) and spas. The project is
easily accessible from nearby airports, with Al Alamein Airport approximately 20 minutes away and Borg
El Arab Airport about 55 minutes away.
Emaar Misr won the tender for the property in an auction in August 2006 held by the Egyptian General
Company for Tourism and Hotels, Egypt’s sponsored tourism division, and construction commenced in
2008. Emaar Misr paid full consideration for the land but title to the land has not yet been registered to
Emaar Misr. Emaar Misr is in the process of registering title to the land. See ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Relating
to Emaar Misr’s Business and Industry—Developers, including Emaar Misr, face legal complexities and
uncertainties in obtaining, retaining and enforcing title to land in Egypt’’ and ‘‘Material Contracts—Land and
Property Contracts—Marassi: Preliminary Sale Agreement’’. The master plan for the project was approved by
the Engineering Department of El Alamein District, Governorate of Matrouh in 2013.
Sales for the project began in 2007 during the Platinum Launch of Marassi and Uptown Cairo. In June
2009, the Marassi Beach Club opened. In 2012, the golf course and golf academy became operational and
in 2013 Emaar Misr introduced a floating restaurant to the development.
Delivery of units began at the end of 2010. As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr has delivered 1,070 units,
representing approximately 261,378 square metres of GFA. In July 2014, Emaar Misr launched the first
retail centre in Marassi, the Marassi MPorium. Emaar Misr currently operates 130 keys and 14 villas at the
historic El Alamein hotel located in Marassi. Management expects that the property will be exempt from
taxes until 2018.
On 26 June 2014, Emaar Misr acquired the South Land plot which is divided into a residential area (gross
land area of approximately 29,678 square metres, target GFA of 50,064 square metres and planned to
include 616 apartments) and a commercial area (gross land area approximately 38,456 square metres,
target GFA of 53,573 square metres and target GLA of 44,307 square metres (serviced apartments) (the
‘‘Marassi South Land’’).

Retail Developments
Emaar Misr plans to construct approximately 32,318 square metres of retail GLA in Project Marassi. An
estimated 4,686 square metres of retail space was operational as of 31 March 2015. As of 31 March 2015,
phase 1 of the Marassi MPorium has been fully occupied and leased since summer 2014 with an average
rate of EGP 2400 per square metre per year for the whole mall.

Hospitality Developments
According to the master plan, the hospitality area is expected to feature 12 hotels, including a golf hotel,
three boutique hotels and serviced apartments for a total of 3,350 keys, of which three hotels and one
boutique hotel are expected to be located in the Marassi Marina. See ‘‘—Marassi Marina’’ below. The
hospitality area is expected to comprise different types and tiers of hotels in order to accommodate
different age groups as well as income brackets. The Emaar Hospitality Group and subsidiary of the
Principal Shareholder is expected to operate ‘‘The Address’’ hotel.
Emaar Misr currently operates 130 keys and 14 villas at the historic El Alamein hotel located in Marassi
which it acquired with the land and renovated subsequently. An additional minor renovation is expected at
the hotel during 2015. In 2024, Management plans to renovate the El Alamein hotel into a five star hotel
with approximately 260 keys, including serviced apartments. Management expects the cost of developing
hospitality segments in Project Marassi to amount to approximately EGP 9.5 billion, including land cost,
infrastructure costs, hard and soft costs and finance cost.
In summer 2014, Emaar Misr launched serviced and branded apartments at ‘‘The Address’’ hotel, with a
target 49 hotel room keys, 68 serviced apartments and 20 branded apartments (of which 44 serviced and
branded apartments have been sold).

84
Marassi Marina
Emaar Misr is in the initial design stages for developing a 250-slip yacht marina on the North Coast which
is designed to make Project Marassi a year-round destination. The Marassi Marina’s master plan features a
wide range of dining venues, cafes and retail outlets in addition to residential units with marina views.
Marassi is expected to be Egypt’s first private development on the North Coast with an international
marina, which Management believes will allow international tourism inflows unmatched by any other
developments in Egypt as the marina’s location is expected to be difficult to replicate in the region. The
marina is designed to be integrated with customs and immigration approvals for ease of access and benefits
from a unique location and unmatched climate along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the
Mediterranean. The total expected GFA of the marina is anticipated to be approximately 859,000 square
metres. Emaar Misr is seeking approval for the Marassi Marina to be used as an international port and
expects to complete the construction by the end of 2024. Once the final design of the marina is completed,
Emaar Misr will seek all required licences and permits, which will be required prior to commencing
construction.

Construction of desalination plants and the main road have largely been completed. Additionally, Emaar
Misr has begun site grading after obtaining approvals from the relevant authorities. The opening of the full
golf course is expected to be completed by the end of 2016 along with the launch of the Armani residential
units. Emaar Misr aims for Marassi Marina and retail areas to begin operating in 2019.
Management expects total investment costs of the Marassi Marina to amount to approximately EGP
13.5 billion. A significant portion of the net proceeds from the Combined Offering is expected to finance
the roll-out of the retail and hospitality areas at Marassi Marina, including the necessary infrastructure.

Project Mivida
Emaar Misr is in the process of developing Mivida, a community development with environmentally
friendly components and green landscapes and amenities that are planned to cover more than 80% of the
project’s 3.7 million square metres of land. Project Mivida’s master plan includes Mivida Downtown, a
centrally located hub in East Cairo that is expected to include a wide spectrum of amenities, a business
park, a business hotel and a town centre with a boulevard-style shopping area.
Located in the centre of New Cairo City, Project Mivida is situated on approximately 3.7 million square
metres of land along a central road in New Cairo City and features a range of international architectural
styles. JZMK Partners created the master plan. Project Mivida’s master plan features residential, leisure,
retail and office space as well as a medical campus and educational campuses managed by elite schools.
The master plan also comprises other facilities designed for the project, such as a community centre, a
33-acre central park, a business park, a downtown retail development with boulevard shopping, a spa,
sports, leisure facilities. Project Mivida’s master plan includes green walkways connecting various parcels
of land, greenery and landscape views, solar powered lighting for common areas and a green pedestrian
ring road connecting the different parcels. The development is located close to American University in
Cairo and approximately 20 minutes from Cairo International Airport. The project is strategically located
in the centre of New Cairo City, is easily accessible to the town centre through multiple access points
through Road 90, Suez and Sokhna Roads. The project is 30 kilometres from Zamalek/Downtown,
25 kilometres from Maadi, eight kilometres from New Cairo, 12 kilometres from Nasr City and 18
kilometres from Heliopolis.
Emaar Misr acquired the land from NUCA in June 2006, but title to the land may not be registered to
Emaar Misr until full payment is made. Emaar Misr paid an advance payment on the land in February
2006 and the remainder of the purchase price is scheduled to be made over seven annual instalments. As of
the date of this Offering Memorandum, the outstanding amount is approximately EGP 931 million. Of this
outstanding amount, 15% is expected to be paid in 2015, 26% is expected to be paid in 2016 and the
remainder in 2017 (including interest). See ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Emaar Misr’s Business and
Industry—Developers, including Emaar Misr, face legal complexities and uncertainties in obtaining, retaining
and enforcing title to land in Egypt’’ and ‘‘Material Contracts—Land and Property Contracts—Mivida:
Preliminary Sale Agreement’’. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr is awaiting
approval in the form of a ministerial decree regarding a revised master plan for the project.
Sales for the project began in 2009. Delivery of the first office building was in 2012. Delivery of residential
units began in 2014. As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr has delivered 460 residential units, representing
approximately 111,195 square metres of residential GFA.

Retail Developments
Emaar Misr plans to construct approximately 96,000 square metres of GFA (78,000 of GLA), which is
expected to be located exclusively in Mivida Downtown, the landmark development of Project Mivida. See
‘‘—Mivida Downtown’’ below. Management expects the retail segment in Project Mivida to cost
approximately EGP 1.1 billion, including land cost, infrastructure cost, hard and soft costs and finance cost.
Management expects to open its central park retail centre in 2017, the Mivida Mall in 2018 and the Mivida
Downtown retail centres in 2019. Management estimates that approximately 90% of GLA is expected to be
added in 2018 and 2019.

Office Developments
Emaar Misr plans to construct approximately 116,000 square metres of commercial GFA (88,000 of GLA)
that is expected to be located exclusively in Mivida Downtown and of which approximately one-third has
already been leased. See ‘‘—Mivida Downtown’’ below. Emaar Misr’s intends to sell 30% of office space
and lease the remaining 70%.
In 2012 and again in 2014, Emaar Misr delivered two buildings of approximately 4,700 square metres each.
Management expects to open the second phase of Project Mivida’s office park in 2018. As of 31 March
2015, tenants in the business park included major local and multinational companies, with the full first
floor (1,215 square metres) leased at a 100% occupancy rate.

Hospitality Developments
Management intends to sell the plot of land on which the hotel would be located.

Mivida Downtown
Emaar Misr is in the final design stages of developing the master plan for Mivida Downtown, a 376,000
square metre development strategically located in the centre of New Cairo City in East Cairo. Office space
at Mivida Downtown is expected to comprise 116,000 square metres of GFA and apartment space is
expected to comprise 154,000 square metres of GFA across 870 apartments. Mivida Downtown is designed
as a mixed-use project that is expected to feature a shopping boulevard, a business park, outdoor dining,
medical and educational facilities and a hotel. Mivida Downtown’s master plan also features a school and
medical campuses to occupy over 50,500 square metres of land each. The school is expected to have a seat
capacity of approximately 2,000, although seat capacity is not expected to affect revenues as the land is
expected to be sold rather than retained as investment property. Mivida Downtown was designed by JZMK
with an expected GFA of 366,000 square metres. Mivida Downtown is expected to be completed by the end
of 2021.

Undeveloped Land
Cairo Gate: 6th of October City
Cairo Gate is a land plot of approximately 0.6 million square metres in 6th of October City with frontage of
the Cairo—Alexandria Desert highway, an area with limited land offerings, which makes Cairo Gate a
strong value proposition.
The master planning of the Cairo Gate development is still in progress. Please see ‘‘Material Contracts—
Land and Property Contracts—Cairo Gate: Preliminary Sale Agreements’’ for a description of the status of
the land upon which Cairo Gate is planned to be developed. In addition, this land is subject to general
usage restrictions on all land connected to the Cairo—Alexandria Desert highway. These restrictions
prohibit construction on land that is within 50 metres of the highway. However, this 50-metre wide strip is
designated as ‘‘open space’’ for purposes of the overall master plan to be approved by 6th of October City
Authority, thereby limiting any loss to overall land available for construction. In addition, approximately
18,550 square metres of land intended for the Cairo Gate project is subject to prime minister decree
no 1702/2010. This decree, which calls for expropriation of land to allow additional road works required to
convert the Cairo—Alexandria road to a freeway, has not been enforced against Emaar Misr. Emaar Misr
has been verbally informed by the Roads and Bridges Authority that the expropriation plan has been
amended. Upon amendment of this decree, these 18,550 square metres of land will not be subject to
expropriation. However, this amendment has not taken place yet and there is no guarantee that the decree
will be amended as indicated. Emaar Misr is obliged to pay change of activities fees in order to obtain a
permit to carry out construction and development activities on the land comprising Cairo Gate. As of the
date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr is further considering whether to pay the change of
activities fees in addition to obtaining the relevant approvals for the change of ownership. See ‘‘Risk
Factors—Risks Relating to Emaar Misr’s Business and Industry—Developers, including Emaar Misr, face legal
complexities and uncertainties in obtaining, retaining and enforcing title to land in Egypt’’ and ‘‘Material
Contracts—Land and Property Contracts—Cairo Gate: Preliminary Sale Agreement’’ and ‘‘—Legal
Proceedings—Cairo Gate Land Disputes’’.

Management expects the master plan to be finalised by the second quarter of 2016. As of 31 March 2015,
the total amount invested was EGP 225.2 million.

Competition
Competition in Egypt’s real estate development industry and the retail segment is highly fragmented and
varies based on region and sector. In Cairo, Emaar Misr developments face competition from several
developments in the Cairo area including those constructed by Palm Hills Developments, SODIC, AMER
Group, Madinet Nasr and TMG. Emaar Misr may also face competition from new entrants and established
developers that seek opportunities in the Egyptian property market given that the local market is
underserved with GLA per capita of 0.9 million square metres of office stock available as of fourth quarter
2014 and 0.07 square metres per capita of retail space as of 2013. Despite the fast growing retail market
and continuously increasing demand, supply of retail space still remains limited, when comparing the retail
space per capita for Cairo to that of other regional cities. Management considers geographic location
important in assessing competition for Emaar Misr’s operations.
Additionally, competition affects Emaar Misr differently depending on the relevant business segment.
Residential developments hold the greatest brand equity due to the visible and tangible progress made in
construction, large customer base and proven track record in the Egyptian market. Retail developments
are expected to benefit from the Emaar Group’s brand, brand recognition of The Dubai Mall and
notability of Emaar Group’s operations in the United Arab Emirates. However, the retail developments
nonetheless require a footing in the Egyptian market. Within hospitality segments, management expects to
face significant competition, as the market for hospitality is more saturated.

Management research and competitors’ reported financial information:

Property, Facilities and Offices


Emaar Misr’s land bank amounts to approximately 15.4 million square metres as of the date of this
Offering Memorandum. See ‘‘—Description of Projects’’.
Emaar Misr’s corporate headquarters are located at the Cairo, Mokattam 11571, Egypt. Emaar Misr
maintains a number of sales offices at strategic locations including a sales headquarters in Uptown Cairo,
complete with the Street of Dreams, offering fully furnished residential units. Other sales offices are in
Heliopolis (located on a strategic main street known for its high traffic rates and serving the East Cairo
market which represents a major part of Emaar Misr’s target customers), Mohandessin (aimed at servicing
the West Cairo market and located on a busy and well known street), Marassi (located in Marassi’s popular
beach clubhouse), Mivida (a sales centre planned to be opened in Midiva’s business park to cater to the
New Cairo market, a market with growing demand for Mivida) and Dubai (increasing the reach of Emaar
Misr’s sales).

Regulatory Matters
Emaar Misr’s operations are subject to national and local laws, some of which require that Emaar Misr
maintains certain governmental permits and licences. Regulatory approval and permits are generally
required and issued during two stages of the development of a project. Emaar Misr seeks to obtain all
regulatory approvals at the relevant stages of the projects. Approval of a project’s master plan is required
to ensure compliance with building regulations of the relevant authority, and permits are required during
the construction phase to ensure structural integrity as well as compliance with building regulations.
Construction laws in Egypt are evolving with the growth in the construction sector. Currently, the
Construction Law requires, among other things, that design plans be approved by a licenced engineer to be
submitted to the competent administrative authority (NUCA for new urban communities and the General
Authority for Tourism Development for touristic areas) for obtaining the building licence and that the
licencee under each project obtains insurance covering its statutory liability. Violations of the Construction
Law are subject to criminal sanctions ranging from fines to imprisonment (depending on the gravity of the
violations). Management believes that Emaar Misr’s operations conform to Egyptian industry safety
standards applicable to its construction operations through the implementation of what Management
believes are appropriate safety measures on its construction sites.
Presidential Decree No. 339 of 2000 established EGYPTERA. EGYPTERA is mandated to grant licences
relating to, among other things, electricity distribution. Emaar Misr currently holds a valid electricity
distribution licence for one of its developments, namely, Project Marassi.
Emaar Misr’s operations are also subject to various environmental laws and regulations. For example,
Environmental Law No. 4 of 1994 (the ‘‘Environmental Law’’) requires developers to submit an
environmental impact assessment (study) and obtain environmental approval thereof prior to proceeding
with the project. The developer is also required to abide by all Environmental Law provisions relating to
environmental protection that are relevant to the developer’s activity all through the life of the project. A
developer who causes environmental damage is required to compensate those injured for damages. The
Environmental Law also provides for detailed restrictions on the use, transportation, handling and disposal
of hazardous wastes and materials and sets forth regulations concerning emission control standards, zoning

92
restrictions and use of pesticides. The Egyptian Environmental Affairs Agency (the ‘‘EEAA’’), which
enforces the Environmental Law, is authorised to issue fines for violations, and, in extreme cases, seek
prosecution of violators. Management believes that its environmental compliance records and procedures
are in line with those of real estate developers in Egypt.
Additional environmental regulations must be complied with and specific approval obtained for
construction within 200 metres of the coast line. Construction that could affect the natural coast line must
be approved by the Egyptian General Authority for Coasts Preservation and the EEAA. Any
environmental issue that may arise during the course of development of a project is addressed with the
appropriate environmental authority. To date, approval for the environmental impact assessment for
Project Marassi has not been obtained. Management believes that the development is in line with market
practices for real estate developers in the North Coast.

Intellectual Property Rights


Emaar Misr entered into a trademark licence agreement with Emaar Properties on 31 May 2015 (the
‘‘Licence Agreement’’) pursuant to which Emaar Properties granted to Emaar Misr a royalty-free,
non-exclusive licence to use certain intellectual property rights owned by Emaar Properties in Egypt,
including the following trademarks: the words ‘‘Emaar’’, ‘‘Marassi’’ and ‘‘Mivida’’ in Latin and Arabic
letters, the word ‘‘Egypt Mall’’ in English letters, the ‘‘Emaar’’ and ‘‘CA’’ logos, and the ‘‘Uptown Cairo’’
logo in English and Arabic, copyrights, designs (whether registered or not), utility models, business
methods, marketing and sales know-how, corporate name and logo, goodwill, and trade dress and design
for, as well as any proprietary rights related to the use, marketing and sale of, products and services by
Emaar Misr in Egypt. For further details relating to the Licence Agreement, see ‘‘Material Contracts—
Licence Agreement with Emaar Properties’’.

Information Technology
Emaar Misr operates an information technology network designed and constructed by Emaar Properties
for use by companies in the Emaar Group. The network serves corporate operations, development and
customer interface systems. Using a customised intranet and extranet portal, the information technology
network improves product services through delivering a convenient, easy-to-use interface to corporate
users, customers and prospective buyers.

Legal Proceedings
Emaar Misr and certain of its executives and directors are subject to a number of legal, regulatory and
administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of Emaar Misr’s business. Although Management
does not believe that any one existing or threatened judicial proceeding or arbitration could have a
material adverse effect on Emaar Misr, because of the nature of these matters (and in particular
misdemeanour criminal proceedings), Emaar Misr is not able to predict their final outcomes, some of
which may be unfavourable to Emaar Misr. As of 31 March 2015, Emaar Misr recorded EGP 1,685,775 in
provisions for litigation and legal claims. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, the aggregate
impact of the legal proceedings to which Emaar Misr is a party is estimated to be EGP 4.9 million. The
primary existing disputes, litigation and arbitration proceedings involving Emaar Misr are described below.
See ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Related to Emaar Misr’s Business and Industry—Emaar Misr would be affected by
any damage to the ‘‘Emaar’’ brand’’ and ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Related to Emaar Misr’s Business and
Industry—Emaar Misr and certain of its executives and directors are and may continue to be party to civil and
criminal misdemeanour legal proceedings, the outcome of which is uncertain’’.

Misdemeanour Criminal Cases


Under Egyptian law, criminal proceedings may be initiated directly by an individual plaintiff in connection
with certain types of misdemeanours for which the law permits settlement or conciliation pursuant to the
Code of Criminal Procedures. These proceedings may be initiated without any investigation or
recommendation to prosecute by any state investigative or prosecutorial body. When brought against a
corporate entity, the proceedings are instituted against the chairman or chief executive of the entity as the
entity’s legal representative. Direct misdemeanour criminal proceedings may be brought before the first
instance criminal courts and can result in a conviction in absentia under certain circumstances. Conviction
may result in a prison sentence in addition to monetary penalties.

93
According to Egyptian Law, once the accused objects to a judgment rendered in absentia during the
applicable time frame for such objection, the accused is granted the right to a retrial by the first instance
court, and the judgment rendered in absentia is cancelled and replaced by the judgment rendered in the
retrial in the presence of the accused.
Like many businesses operating in Egypt, Emaar Misr and its senior management team has been the
subject of direct misdemeanour criminal cases. In Emaar Misr’s case, these cases have alleged fraud under
Article 336 of the Penal Code and/or breach of trust in connection with the termination of contracts to
purchase units in various Emaar Misr projects. In May 2015, Emaar Misr settled one such case and as of
the date of this Offering Memorandum Emaar Misr and its senior executives are currently contesting two
additional cases. These three cases are described below. Because criminal proceedings may be initiated in
absentia, there may be other cases in process of which the Company and its senior executives are unaware.
• Appeal of misdemeanour No. 59899 for the year 2014 was filed before the Nasr City Misdemeanour
Court of Appeal appealing the judgment rendered in misdemeanour no. 59899 for the year 2014, Nasr
City (misdemeanour) in favour of Ossama El Nagar as claimant against Emaar Misr’s Chairman and
Emaar Misr’s Managing Director. The Chairman was declared innocent but the Managing Director
was sentenced to imprisonment of one year.
This case, which is currently on appeal, arises from a dispute between Ossama El Nagar and Emaar
Misr over the purchase of a residential unit in Project Mivida. According to Management, the
claimant wrote payment checks from his account on behalf of two buyers, whom he represented.
When one of the cheques bounced (which is a misdemeanour under Egyptian law) and the buyers did
not pay the required amount Emaar Misr cancelled the purchase application.
Ossama El Nagar considered Emaar Misr’s cancellation to constitute ‘fraud’ and commenced a direct
misdemeanour case against the Chairman and the Managing Director of Emaar Misr. According to
Emaar Misr’s management, Ossama El Nagar commenced this case without using proper notice
procedures and in a court that did not have jurisdiction over the case. Nonetheless, the court rendered
an in absentia judgment in favour of Ossama El Nagar and sentenced both the Chairman and the
Managing Director to one year of imprisonment. When Emaar Misr objected to this judgment, the
same court held the retrial, and acquitted the Chairman and sentenced the Managing Director to one
year of imprisonment. The Managing Director appealed the judgment.
While the appeal was pending, Emaar Misr settled this dispute on behalf of the Managing Director
without making any monetary payments but rather by rescheduling the customer’s instalment
payments. This settlement will be notified to the court in the next court session scheduled to take
place on 2 June 2015. It is expected that the case will be dismissed as a result.
• Objection No. 17717 for the year 2015 was filed before the Nasr City Misdemeanour Court
challenging the judgment rendered in absentia in favour of Essam Kamal as claimant against the
Managing Director of Emaar Misr. The Managing Director was sentenced to imprisonment for two
years and a bail of EGP 10,000.
According to Management, Essam Kamal purchased a unit in Project Marassi and paid the down
payment. The remainder of the price was to be paid in instalments. Five instalments were not paid
when they fell due. The cheques corresponding to the instalments bounced. Emaar Misr notified
Essam Kamal to pay the due amounts within a week of the notification. Essam Kamal did not pay such
amounts, and Emaar Misr terminated the sale agreement.
Essam Kamal considered Emaar Misr’s termination as ‘fraud’ and commenced a direct misdemeanour
case against the Managing Director of Emaar Misr without using proper notice procedures and in a
court that did not have jurisdiction over the case. Nonetheless, the court rendered an in absentia
judgment of two years of imprisonment against the Managing Director.
This judgment is subject to objection and a retrial has been scheduled for 24 June 2015 to hear the
objection.
• Objection No. 17718 for the year 2015 was filed before the Nasr City Misdemeanour Court
challenging the judgment rendered in absentia in favour of Mohamed Yasser Lotfy as claimant against
the Managing Director. The Managing Director was sentenced to imprisonment of two years and a
bail of EGP 10,000.
According to Management, Mohamed Yasser Lotfy purchased a unit in Project Marassi and paid the

94
down payment. The remainder of the price was to be paid in instalments. Mohamed Yasser Lotfy did
not pay the remainder of the instalments. Therefore, Emaar Misr terminated the sale agreement and
repossessed the unit. Subsequently, Mohamed Yasser Lotfy repurchased the same unit from Emaar
Misr. However, the price of the unit was higher than under the first sale agreement. In addition to the
above, Mohamed Yasser Lotfy purchased another residential unit from Emaar Misr and there was a
difference of 140 square metres between the area set forth in the sale agreement and the actual area
of the purchased unit.
Mohamed Yasser Lotfy considered the above as ‘fraud’ and commenced a direct misdemeanour case
against the Managing Director without using proper notice procedures and in a court that did not
have jurisdiction over the case. Nonetheless, the court rendered an in absentia judgment of two years
of imprisonment against the chief executive officer.
This judgment is subject to objection and a retrial has been scheduled for 25 June 2015 to hear the
objection.

Project Marassi Land Disputes


Various individuals and entities claim title over the land owned by Emaar Misr located on Project Marassi
and have filed lawsuits to enforce their claims. The main lawsuits are discussed below, including those
which have been rejected by the courts and those which are still being adjudicated:

Dispute with the Matrouh Governorate


On 18 February 2007, Emaar Misr purchased the Sidi Abdul Rahman hotel and its surrounding land from
the HOTAC and EGOTH. Emaar Misr commenced the development of Project Marassi on the purchased
land and submitted an application to register the title to the land in its name. In 2009, the Matrouh
Governorate objected to the registration of title on the basis that the land was owned by the Matrouh
Governorate and not HOTAC. Subsequently, Emaar Misr challenged the Matrouh Governorate’s decision
before the Ministerial Committee for Settlement of Investment Disputes. Following a hearing on
30 August 2014, the committee issued a decision in favour of Emaar Misr and ordered the Matrouh
Governorate to approve the land sale to Emaar Misr. On 24 December 2014, the Matrouh Governorate
submitted a letter to the relevant land registry confirming its non-objection to Emaar Misr’s proceeding
with the registration procedures for the land. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr is
in the process of registering the title to the land.

Cairo Gate Land Disputes


On 16 November 2006, certain members of Aida Abdel Nasser’s family along with Aida Abdel Nasser and
Emaar Misr entered into preliminary sale agreements comprising approximately 109,200 square metres of
land that is intended for the Cairo Gate project. Emaar Misr paid half of the purchase price on the date of
signing and the remaining balance will be paid upon registration of the sale agreement. However, the sold
land includes approximately 46,200 square metres of land that were subsequently determined to be owned
by a third-party. Emaar Misr filed judicial misdemeanour claims number 3548 for the year 2009 and 16557
for the year 2009 against the sellers of the land for the sale of third-party property and withheld payment of
the balance of the sale price. Emaar Misr is in the process of negotiating with the sellers to replace this
disputed land with alternate land that is adjacent to the rest of the proposed Cairo Gate project. Emaar
Misr plans to pay the balance of the purchase price into an escrow account, from which it will only be
released upon registration of title to the net area of 63,000 square metres.

Disputes Relating to Sales of Residential Units


Approximately 33 legal proceedings have been initiated since 2010 either by or against Emaar Misr in
relation to alleged breaches of contractual obligations under the purchase agreements relating to the sale
of residential units. The disputes are pending before the civil courts of the districts of South and North
Cairo and Matrouh and the Khalifa Partial Court. As a defendant in those proceedings, Emaar Misr is
generally facing claims by customers for failure or delay to deliver residential units and requests for courts
to order payment of compensatory damages, specific performance and/or contract rescission. As a plaintiff
in those proceedings, Emaar Misr generally seeks contract rescissions and retention of 20% of the
purchase price of units due to alleged failure or payment delay by customers.

Employment Disputes
As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar Misr is party to approximately eight legal
proceedings in the ordinary course of business before civil courts of the districts of South and North Cairo
and Matrouh for unfair or wrongful dismissal or transfer by Emaar Misr of its employees and related
payment of compensatory damages.

Arbitration Dispute
Emaar Misr is a party to an ad-hoc arbitration proceeding initiated on 29 May 2014, by Premix for Ready
Mix Concrete. The tribunal is constituted of three arbitrators, and the parties agreed on the procedural
hearing that all hearings shall be held at the Cairo Regional Center for Commercial International
Arbitration (venue of arbitration) and the dispute shall be governed by the Egyptian law. The claimant in
those proceedings alleges a breach of contractual obligations by Emaar Misr under a memorandum of
understanding dated 18 March 2008 and another contract for land use installation of concrete batching
plants on sites without specifying any monetary claims. The claimant did not quantify the alleged damages,
and requested the tribunal to appoint an expert to perform this exercise. The arbitral tribunal was
constituted on 13 August 2013. The arbitral tribunal held its first session on 29 May 2014 (first procedural
hearing). On 11 December 2014, Emaar Misr submitted its response to the claim and its counterclaim for
an amount of EGP 13,461,430. The claimant’s response to Emaar Misr’s counterclaim was submitted.
Emaar Misr will submit its rejoinder in September 2015.

Insurance
Management believes that Emaar Misr’s insurance coverage for all material aspects of its operations is
comparable to or in excess of that of Egyptian companies in the sector in which Emaar Misr operates.
Insurance for each project under development is provided by Emaar Misr, as required by Egyptian law.
Under Egyptian law, both the construction contractor and the architect of a project are jointly liable for
any harm or loss caused by any defect in construction for 10 years from the date construction is completed.
The coverage that Emaar Misr maintains insures Emaar Misr against this liability, and also covers Emaar

97
Misr for harm or loss caused by natural disasters while a project is under development. The third-party
sub-contractors employed by Emaar Misr are responsible for insuring their construction employees against
injury. Emaar Misr also maintains insurance coverage for the leisure clubs and other infrastructure that are
part of its developments.

Employee Share Option Plan


On 26 January 2015, an Extraordinary General Meeting of Emaar Misr approved amendments to the
Statutes allowing the Board of Directors, subject to an approval of the shareholders, to create an employee
share option plan (‘‘ESOP’’) as provided in the Egyptian Companies Law by way of (i) granting free
Ordinary Shares; (ii) sale of Ordinary Shares under preferable conditions; or (iii) a promise to sell
Ordinary Shares upon the lapse of a certain period of time and the fulfilment of certain conditions. Emaar
Misr intends to create the ESOP by way of granting free shares.

98
MATERIAL CONTRACTS
The following are contracts that have been entered into by the Company that contain provisions under
which the Company has an obligation or entitlement that is material to the Company as of the date of this
Offering Memorandum.

Land and Property Contracts


Uptown Cairo: Preliminary Sale Agreement
On 10 August 2005, Emaar Misr and El Nasr Company entered into a preliminary sale agreement for the
acquisition by Emaar Misr of a plot of land at the Zahraa El Mokattam hill, comprising a total area of
approximately 4,000,000 square metres. In accordance with the Cairo governorate decree No. 501 for 2008
approving the master plan for Project Uptown Cairo, the area of the land subject to the master plan was
4,531,029 square metres.
The preliminary sale agreement permits Emaar Misr to develop the land after obtaining the necessary
approvals of a proposed master plan. The Cairo Governorate approved the Uptown Cairo master plan in
March 2008 and approved further amendments in October 2014. As of the date of this Offering
Memorandum, Emaar Misr has submitted certain changes to the master plan that are still pending
approval. The Uptown Cairo master plan provides for residential, retail, commercial and hospitality areas
that will include a school and medical centre, a business park, hotels, retail stores, leisure developments
and an 18-hole golf course, in addition to Emaar Square, an outdoor retail and lifestyle venue. Under the
terms of the agreement, Emaar Misr is required to construct infrastructure and road networks for the
project. See ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Projects under Development—Project Uptown Cairo’’. Any
amendments to Uptown Cairo’s master plan must be approved by the Cairo Governorate. Under the
preliminary sale agreement, Emaar Misr may dispose of the land or any part thereof, provided the
purchase price is paid in full and that Emaar shall remain liable to El Nasr Company with respect to the
development obligations. Both El Nasr Company and the Egyptian government retain a right of inspection
on the land, to ensure Emaar Misr meets its development obligations. Emaar Misr is obliged to complete
the project within approximately six years from the date of obtaining all required building permits and
connection of main utilities.
Subject to the payment of an additional EGP 19 million for an increase in the land area as per a survey
report which have not been claimed by the seller, Emaar Misr has paid the purchase price for the land in
full. El Nasr Company has not yet transferred the land title to Emaar Misr. Emaar Misr is in the process of
registering title to the land in coordination with the seller and the Governorate of Cairo.

Marassi: Preliminary Sale Agreement


On 18 February 2007, Emaar Misr as acquirer, HOTAC as seller and EGOTH as endorsing party and
previous owner of the land entered into a preliminary sale agreement for Emaar Misr’s acquisition of the
Sidi Abdel Rahman land plot and Al Alamein Hotel located at Sidi Abdul Rahman, North Coast,
Matrouh. The total area of the land is 6,244,431 square metres. On 26 September 2011, HOTAC and
EGOTH entered into an addendum to the preliminary sale agreement for the acquisition of an additional
land of an area of approximately 217,115 square metres.
The preliminary sale agreement permits Emaar Misr to develop the land after obtaining the necessary
approvals of a proposed master plan. The preliminary approvals on the project were obtained from the
Governorate of Matrouh, the Ministry of Tourism and the prime minister of Egypt in the last quarter of
2007. The Marassi master plan provides for the development of a beach resort, residential units, a town
centre, a medical centre, an entertainment centre, an 18-hole golf course and spas as well as a marina.
Under the terms of the agreement, Emaar Misr is required to retain the existing hotel on the land and its
employees and establish and manage at least 3,000 hotel keys on the property. See ‘‘Description of Emaar
Misr—Projects under Development—Project Marassi’’. The Engineering department of Alalamein District,
Governorate of Matrouh approved Marassi’s master plan in 2013 and any amendments to it must be
approved by the Governorate of Matrouh, the Ministry of Tourism and the prime minister of Egypt. Under
the preliminary sale agreement, Emaar Misr may dispose of the land or any part thereof, provided that the
successor shall assume all of Emaar Misr’s development obligations, which Emaar Misr will continue to
remain liable for after disposal of the land. Both HOTAC and the Egyptian government retain a right of
inspection on the land, to ensure Emaar Misr meets its development obligations. Emaar Misr is obliged to
complete the project within approximately 5.5 years from conducting all the required land studies and

99
obtaining required building permits. Outstanding approvals on the land include the authorisations related
to the marina, the maximum height reference point and environmental approvals.
Emaar Misr has paid the purchase price in full when it obtained the rights to the land in 2006, but HOTAC
has not yet transferred land title to Emaar Misr. Emaar Misr is in the process of registering title to the
land, see ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Projects under Development—Project Marassi’’. Remaining fees
related to the land include approximately EGP 13 million of costs related to the Marassi Southland asset to
be paid upon registration of the land.

Mivida: Preliminary Sale Agreement


On 3 September 2006, Emaar Misr and NUCA entered into a preliminary sale agreement for the
acquisition of land plot number 16 East Louts section—New Cairo, the Mivida land development project.
The area of the plot of land was amended through a letter dated 14 April 2009, bringing Project Mivida to
a total area of 3,745,854.59 square metres.
The preliminary sale agreement permits Emaar Misr to develop the land after submitting a master plan for
approval to the Egyptian Ministry of Housing, Utilities and Urban Development (the ‘‘Ministry of
Housing’’). The Mivida master plan, as approved by the Ministry of Housing on May 2008, provides for the
development of residential, retail, commercial and hospitality areas that will include amenities, a business
park, a hotel and a town centre with boulevard-style shopping, in addition to Mivida Downtown which will
feature retail, office space, medical and educational facilities and a hotel. See ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—
Projects under Development—Project Mivida’’. Amendments to the master plan were approved by the
Ministry of Housing in February 2009 and any further amendments must be approved by the Ministry of
Housing. Under the preliminary sale agreement, Emaar Misr is prohibited from offering any units for sale
without obtaining NUCA’s approval (provided that the preliminary sale agreement entered into between
NUCA and Emaar Misr is signed and NUCA issues the master plan decree) or disposing of the land prior
to the payment of the full purchase price and completion of the project.
Emaar Misr paid an advance payment on the land in February 2006 and the remainder of the purchase
price is scheduled to be made over seven instalments. As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, Emaar
Misr has paid four instalments and the outstanding amount is approximately EGP 931 million. Of this
outstanding amount, 15% is expected to be paid in 2015, 26% is expected to be paid in 2016 and the
remainder in 2017 (excluding interest). Any delay in payment will result in interest rate charges applied by
the National Investment Bank and if the subsequent instalment is not paid, all instalments automatically
become due. If Emaar Misr defaults on the payments, NUCA is entitled to rescind the agreement.
NUCA is entitled to monitor the construction of Project Mivida by making periodic inspection visits. If
Emaar Misr violates any of its development obligations, NUCA is entitled to suspend construction works
and instruct Emaar Misr to rectify the violations within a certain timeframe, which is enforceable through
administrative means. Additionally, if NUCA determines that Emaar Misr’s resources are inadequate to
complete the project, it is entitled to amend the land allocation and the preliminary sale agreement or
withdraw the land allocation entirely. The project is expected to be completed in 2019, see ‘‘Risk Factors—
Risks Relating to Egypt and the MENA Region’’.
As of the date of this Offering Memorandum, the land has been handed over to Emaar Misr. NUCA has a
lien over the land until the purchase price is fully paid. If Emaar Misr completes the development of a
particular stage of the master plan and has paid the corresponding price for that stage, NUCA may
transfer title to Emaar Misr for that part of the land upon request from Emaar Misr. If Emaar Misr fails to
acquire title to the land, perform its development obligations or make payment on the land, NUCA may
claim right to the land. Under the preliminary sale agreement, Emaar Misr has waived its legal
pre-emption right to NUCA’s sales of any land adjacent to Project Mivida. Outstanding required approvals
include a ministerial decree regarding the revised master plan. Title to the land has not yet been registered
to Emaar Misr and Emaar Misr may not begin the registration process until full payment is made, see
‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Projects under Development—Project Mivida’’.

Cairo Gate: Preliminary Sale Agreements


Emaar Misr acquired the land that is intended for the Cairo Gate development project through the
following preliminary sale agreements:
On 30 August 2005, Emaar Misr and Arab Contractors for Investments SAE entered into a preliminary
sale agreement comprising 244,790 square metres of land that is intended for the Cairo Gate project. The

100
sold land includes 18,750 square metres of land that was expropriated by Prime Minister decree No. 1142
of 1994. Emaar Misr was assigned the right to receive any compensation arising from the area and paid the
purchase price in full. The net area in Emaar Misr’s possession under this preliminary sale agreement is
226,040 square metres.
On 11 April 2006, Emaar Misr and Commercial International Bank entered into a preliminary sale
agreement comprising approximately 327,950 square metres of land that is intended for the Cairo Gate
project. The sold land includes a part of the Cairo—Alexandria desert road with an area of approximately
6,750 square metres under the possession of the government. Emaar Misr was assigned the right to receive
any compensation arising from the expropriation of the said area and paid the purchase price in full. In
addition, Emaar Misr has disposed of approximately 8,400 square metres of this land. The net area in
Emaar Misr’s possession under this preliminary sale agreement is 313,000 square metres.
On 16 November 2006, Aida Abdel Nasser, members of her family and Emaar Misr entered into
preliminary sale agreements comprising approximately 109,200 square metres of land that is intended for
the Cairo Gate project. Emaar Misr paid half of the purchase price on the date of signing and the
remaining balance will be paid upon registration of the sale agreement. However, the sold land includes
approximately 46,200 square metres of land that were subsequently determined to be owned by a third-
party, see ‘‘Description of Emaar Misr—Legal Proceedings—Cairo Gate Land Disputes’’. Emaar Misr is in
the process of negotiating with the sellers to replace this disputed land with alternate land that is adjacent
to the rest of the proposed Cairo Gate project. Emaar Misr plans to pay the balance of the purchase price
into an escrow account, from which it will only be released upon registration of title to the net area of
63,000 square metres.
Emaar Misr is obliged to pay change of activities fees in order to obtain a permit to carry out construction
and development activities on the land comprising Cairo Gate. Emaar Misr has currently suspended the
registration of title process until a decision is made with regard to payment of the change of activities fees.
On 15 June 2010, Prime Minister Decree No. 1702/2010 expropriated an additional 18,550 square metres
of the land.

50.1%; or
• if any of the parties goes into voluntary or involuntary liquidation or where either of the

THE EGYPTIAN REAL ESTATE MARKET
Certain information and statistics relating to the Egyptian economy, the Egyptian securities market and the
international and Egyptian real estate development industry included in this section have been extracted or
derived from official and other public sources that Management believes to be reliable, including Business
Monitor International, the Central Bank of Egypt, Demographia World Urban Areas Report, DTZ, Economist
Intelligence Unit, Egypt’s Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statistics, Jones Lang LaSalle and the
World Bank. Such information and statistics may be approximations or estimates or use rounded numbers. In
addition, in some cases Management has made rounding adjustments to some of this information and statistics
for consistency of presentation. Similar statistics may be obtainable from other sources, but the underlying
assumptions, methodology and, consequently, the resulting data may vary from source to source. Management
has not independently verified such information or statistics, and does not guarantee their accuracy and
completeness. However, Management confirms that such information has been accurately reproduced in this
Section and that as far as Management is aware and is able to ascertain from such information, no facts have
been omitted which would render the reproduced information inaccurate or misleading.
For information related to Egypt, annual information is presented based on periods from 1 July through
30 June, the fiscal year maintained by the government of Egypt for budgeting and official statistics.
In addition, certain statements are made in this section regarding the Company’s competitive position in its
industry based on statistical information published by certain bodies mentioned above and Management’s
experience and assessment of market conditions. While Management believes these statements to be reasonable
and fair approximations, to the extent that such statements are in part derived from Management’s estimates of
third-party information, individually and on an aggregate, industry-wide basis, these statements cannot and
have not been verified by Management, and independent sources have not verified such statements. Accordingly,
neither a prospective investor nor any other person, firm or company may rely on the accuracy and completeness
of that information. See ‘‘Market and Industry Data’’ and ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Egypt and the
MENA Region—Official statistics and market data published in Egypt may not be complete or reliable.’’

Overview
With a population of approximately 88 million as of 1 January 2015, Egypt is the most populous country in
the MENA region (source: CAPMAS, United Nations Population Division). Domestic consumption is an
important driver for economic growth, contributing approximately 80% to GDP in Egypt’s fiscal years
ended 30 June 2012 and 2013 (source: Ministry of Planning, Egypt). This reflects private consumption to
GDP at current and constant prices.
While political unrest weighed down economic activity as reflected in Egypt’s real GDP growth
post-January 2011, the subsequent increase in economic and political stability has improved confidence
and investment appetite.
The following table sets forth the trend in certain economic indicators in Egypt from 2010 to 2014:

Egypt’s fundamentals remain on an upward trend with the State continuing to prioritise investment,
improve infrastructure and create jobs. Real GDP growth of 4.2% is expected in 2015 and 4.3% in 2016
according to the Economist Intelligence Unit as of April 2015. Additionally, multiple policy measures have
recently been undertaken to stimulate investments in Egypt. These policy measures include the following:
• Actions by the Central Bank of Egypt in 2015 to close the gap between the Egyptian pound and the
U.S. dollar parallel markets aimed at improving U.S. dollar liquidity and easing capital repatriation
for foreign based investors. The Central Bank of Egypt based this strategy on stimulating an estimated
7% weakening of the Egyptian pound, approximately where it was trading in the parallel market

116
before the adjustment, followed by imposing ceilings on the amount of U.S. dollar cash that can be
deposited in banks by companies and individuals at US$10,000 per day and US$50,000 per month,
unless proper documentation or source of funds is provided (source: EFG Hermes, March 2015).
• The Egyptian State is currently building a new Suez Canal to be completed in five years alongside the
existing 145-year-old waterway along with 3,600 kilometres of new roads, which is expected to improve
infrastructure and create jobs.
• The July 2014 energy subsidy reforms reduced energy subsidies by EGP 44 billion. The State also
raised electricity tariffs by an average of 30% for all classes of residential, commercial and industrial
consumers. These are the first steps of reform that will be carried out over the next five years aimed at
reducing Egypt’s fiscal deficit and diverting resources to sustainable projects.
The Egypt Economic Development Conference, held in Sharm El Sheikh from 13 March to 15 March
2015, resulted in the announcement of several major investment deals including the signing of contracts
worth over $30 billion, as well as new pledges of financial aid from the Gulf Cooperation Council (source:
EFG Hermes, March 2015). The State made a number of policy announcements aimed at preserving
confidence and encouraging investment and consumption. These announcements include:
• A new investment law aimed at tackling obstacles faced by businesses. This law would simplify
procedures for investors and significantly reduce the time needed for issuing licences, procuring land,
and obtaining utilities services by enabling the General Authority for Investments to conduct all
investment procedures and obtain all required licences from other State entities on behalf of the
investor.
• An update of the commercial register law in accordance with international standards and in line with
the State’s orientation towards enhancing the investment environment and encouraging foreign
investments.
• A plan to cut the maximum corporate and individual tax rate to 22.5%, to reduce the sales tax rate on
equipment for investment projects to 5% from 10% and to move to a fully-fledged VAT regime that
will strengthen the tax system and improve the conditions for doing business in Egypt.
According to the Economist Intelligence Unit as of April 2015, Egypt’s public finances are expected to
strengthen steadily but remain firmly in deficit over the forecast period. While inflation is expected to be
moderate in line with low oil projections, subsidy cuts and rising domestic demand are expected to increase
average inflation.

Favourable Demographic Trends in Egypt


Egypt’s strong demographic fundamentals underpin the population’s real demand for housing. Egypt has
the largest population in the MENA region, with an estimated 88 million inhabitants as of 1 January 2015,
increasing at an annual compounded growth rate of approximately 2.5% over the past 5 years (source:
CAPMAS). Across Egypt, more than 60% of the population is under age 30 (source: CAPMAS, January
2015). The increasing number of marriages and shrinking household sizes are expected to increase the
total numbers of households, and further increase housing demand (source: Business Monitor
International, April 2015). According to Business Monitor International, the total number of households in
Egypt is expected to grow between 2015 and 2019 by about 3.9 million. In addition, Egypt’s on-going

117
economic recovery is expected to increase disposable income at a compounded annual growth rate of
approximately 13% over the period from 2015 to 2017.

Cairo
Egypt is characterised by large, sparsely populated areas interspersed with densely populated urban areas
such as Cairo, Alexandria, Port Said, Suez and Luxor. About half of Egypt’s residents live in urban areas,
with most people residing across major centres such as Greater Cairo, Alexandria and other major cities
along the Nile Delta.

Residential Real Estate in Cairo
With a population of over 15 million people, Greater Cairo (which includes Cairo and Giza) is the largest
urban city in Egypt and the Middle East. As downtown Cairo developed into a highly dense urban centre,
the State undertook to build new urban centres surrounding Cairo, including New Cairo, 6th of October
City and Sheikh Zayed City with new infrastructure connecting these areas to the centre of the city. With
high levels of housing demand, currently estimated at around 4.9 million units in the Greater Cairo area
according to DTZ, these new urban centres have experienced strong migration activity, particularly in the
areas of New Cairo, 6th of October City and Sheikh Zayed City. Many upcoming residential projects are
concentrated in these new urban centres. Some of the major real estate projects showcased at the Egypt
Economic Development Conference in March 2015 include:
• Planned US$ 45 billion development of the new capital city of Egypt to be located to the east of Cairo,
which will house government offices and provide homes for up to 5 million people.

118
• Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Housing, Palm Hills Development and
Aabar to develop land in 6th of October City which include residential, commercial, retail and
hospitality components.
In addition, Egypt’s Ministry of Housing, Utilities and Urban Development announced in May 2015 that
Bombardier Inc., Orascom Construction and Arab Contractors will construct a 52 kilometre monorail
which will connect the Cairo metro system to areas west of the capital including 6th of October City and
Sheikh Zayed. The project is expected to be completed by 2018.
According to Jones Lang LaSalle’s first quarter 2015 report, residential sale prices continued to increase
across Cairo. Despite the increase in supply of 31,000 units in the first quarter of 2015, selling prices are
expected to increase due to the positive economic and political outlook over the coming years.

Retail Market in Cairo


Economic growth coupled with an increasingly consumer-oriented culture and improving conditions in the
tourism industry support robust retail demand. According to the Economist Intelligence Unit’s February
2015 report, annual sales of retail enterprises (excluding cash and carry) in Egypt are expected to increase
by 64% in 2018, up from 2014 levels of EGP 832 billion.
Egypt is significantly undersupplied in the retail sector with a shortage of high-quality modern malls.
According to DTZ, Cairo’s retail space per capita is estimated at 0.07 square metre of GLA per capita for
2015. By 2018, GLA per capita is expected to increase to 0.15 square metres per capita, remaining below
international and regional benchmarks.

According to DTZ, the estimated current completed retail floor space in Cairo is approximately 1.1 million
square metres of GLA. Of this, approximately 610,000 square metres are in East Cairo and approximately
360,000 square metres are in West Cairo, while the remaining existing retail space is found in Downtown
Cairo with total GLA of 140,000 square metres (source: DTZ). Over the past decade the city’s retail
market has been dominated by competition from the Maadi City Centre, Citystars Centre and Dandy
Mega Mall. The city is also seeing rapid population growth on its outskirts, creating new potential for retail
space in these areas.
DTZ estimates that planned retail developments across Greater Cairo will boost the total GLA by 27%,
adding c.460,000 square metres to the market by the end of 2016.

119
Due to the lack of quality retail supply in the market, premium quality malls typically have robust
occupancy levels. Retail rental levels within Cairo’s key shopping malls have historically remained
insulated with retail demand largely driven by local spending.

Office Real Estate Market in Cairo


Office space has for many years been concentrated within Downtown Cairo. Due to the general lack of
office stock or a recognised Central Business District, in the past many residential developments have been
used as office space. Over the last four to five years, New Cairo and 6th of October City have emerged as
the focus of business activity in Greater Cairo.

Hospitality Market in Egypt
Egypt’s historic status as a tourist destination, offering holiday options from beach tourism to cultural
tourism, combined with the stabilising political situation, underlies the expectation of positive momentum
in the tourism sector over the next few years.
According to the 2015 World Travel and Tourism report on Egypt, the direct contribution of travel and
tourism to GDP in 2014 was EGP 117.2 billion (5.9% of GDP). This is forecasted to rise by 3.2% in 2015.
The direct contribution of travel and tourism to GDP is expected to grow by 4.5% per annum to
EGP 187.7 billion (5.6% of GDP) by 2025.
Domestic travel spending generated 64.1% of direct travel and tourism GDP in 2014 compared with 35.9%
for visitor exports (i.e., foreign visitor spending or international tourism receipts). Leisure travel spending
(inbound and domestic) generated 72.0% of direct travel and tourism GDP in 2014, compared with 28.0%
for business travel spending.
In 2014, travel and tourism investment (including the purchase of new aircraft and construction of new
hotels) amounted to EGP 30.6 billion, and is expected to rise by 1.4% in 2015, and 5.1% per annum over
the next ten years to EGP 50.8 billion in 2025.
Political and economic stability and Government efforts to promote Egyptian tourism overseas have
resulted in a more than 50% increase in the number of travellers in the second half of 2014 as compared to
the second half of 2013.

Greater Cairo can be segmented into three main tourism markets: Heliopolis (business), Downtown Cairo
(business/leisure) and the Pyramids (leisure/business). East Cairo is expected to include a number of
leisure and retail developments that are part of mixed-use projects such as Cairo Festival City, Emaar
Mivida, Barwa City, Hyde Park and Festival Centre.
The hospitality market within West Cairo includes business, leisure and entertainment tourism. The
catchment site is closely located near the most prominent point for leisure tourism in Giza, the pyramids
plateau, which attracts a large portion of visitors seeking to avoid the congested downtown district. The
area also is attractive for business tourism due to the proximity of 6th of October City’s industrial district,
Smart Village, Abou Rawash and Media City.
Significant recovery in hotel average daily rates reflects government initiatives to increase room rates on
the back of scrapping fuel subsidies. While occupancy levels have been hit by political instability over the
past few years, a gradual recovery is underway. In Cairo, occupancy levels in internationally branded hotels
(4 and 5 stars) are recovering from below 40% occupancy in most of 2013 to levels above 50% in the third
quarter of 2014.

121
According to DTZ, there are an estimated 4,689 keys within the development pipeline until 2018.
Downtown Cairo is expected to account for 43% of the development pipeline and East Cairo and West
Cairo are expected to account for 34% and 26%, respectively.

SECURITIES MARKET INFORMATION
Egyptian Securities Market
The Capital Markets Authority (the ‘‘CMA’’) was established by the State in 1979 pursuant to Presidential
Decree No. 520 of 1979 to promote investment in the Egyptian securities market. The development of the
securities market in Egypt since 1992 has encouraged certain Egyptian banks and financial institutions to
begin to provide securities underwriting, brokerage and mutual funds services. Between 1979 and 2009, the
CMA was responsible for regulating the securities market in Egypt, issuing licences for financial
intermediary businesses (including brokerage, venture capital, mutual fund management and portfolio
management), monitoring the continuing obligations of listed companies, monitoring the central securities
depositary and protecting investors. Egyptian Law No. 10 for 2009, published on 1 March 2009, established
the Egyptian Financial Supervisory Authority which replaced the CMA, the Egyptian Insurance
Supervisory Authority and the Egyptian Financial Leasing Authority as of 1 July 2009. The President of the
EGX and the Chairman of EFSA have the right under the Capital Market Law to prohibit certain offers
and bids for shares of listed companies which are considered to be manipulative, distorting or in violation
of market rules.
The most important factor in the growth of the Egyptian securities market since 1992 has been the State’s
privatisation programme. The rate of privatisation in the early years was slow, but the process was
revitalised under the administration of Prime Minister El-Ganzouri from 4 January 1996 to 15 October
1999.
The Capital Market Law permitted the introduction of mutual funds to the Egyptian market.
Egyptian Companies Law permits companies to issue bonds and other tradable securities. The only
corporate bond issue listed on the EGX prior to the enactment of the Capital Market Law was the Credit
Foncier Egyptian bonds, issued in 1951. Recently, Orascom Construction Industries, Golden Pyramids
Plaza Company, Contact, GB Auto and Mobinil have issued bonds on the EGX.
In February 2007, the Minister of Investment issued a decree adding a new chapter to the Executive
Regulations of the Capital Market Law. The new chapter regulated tender offers and mandatory tender
offers by prohibiting acquisitions of securities through open market purchases of one-third or more of the
capital or voting rights of the target company. See ‘‘Description of Share Capital and Applicable Egyptian
Law—Voting Rights and Shareholders’ Meetings—Certificates, Registry and Transfer’’.
The EGX30 Index’s market capitalisation was EGP 219.9 billion (US$28.8 billion) as of 31 March 2015,
EGP 214 billion (US$ 28.0 billion) as of 31 December 2014, EGP 155 billion (US$ 20.3 billion) as of
31 December 2013 and EGP 117 billion (US$ 15.3 billion) as of 31 December 2012.
The Hermes Index’s level was 828.826 as of 31 March 2015, 833.853 as of 31 December 2014, 675.375 as of
31 December 2013 and 551.026 as of 31 December 2012. The EGX is characterised by a relative lack of
liquidity. As of 31 March 2015, there were 14 listed companies only with an average daily traded value
above EGP 10.0 million (US$1.3 million). The average daily trading value for the period from 1 January
2015 to 31 March 2015 was approximately EGP 562.0 million (US$73.6 million), from 1 January 2014 to
31 December 2014 was approximately EGP 788.9 million (US$ 103.3 million), from 1 January 2013 to
31 December 2013 was approximately EGP 368.5 million (US$ 48.3 million), and from January 2012 to
31 December 2012 was approximately EGP 459.8 million (US$ 60.2 million).

Stock Exchange Trading Mechanisms


Egypt’s trading and settlement mechanisms have been significantly improved over the past few years. A
computerised trading system at the EGX allows for automatic electronic matching for bids and offers. The
electronic trading system links the EGX and allows brokers remote access to the trading floor. It also links
all independent bookkeeping activities to the MCDR, which helps ensure greater speed and efficiency in
the settlement process. Trading on the EGX takes place between 10:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., Sunday through
Thursday, excluding official public holidays.
During each trading session, the price of the stocks is restricted to a 10% ceiling and floor from its previous
closing price. The EGX removes the price restrictions on the request of a broker who is willing to effect a
transaction above the ceiling or below the floor, provided the pricing committee of the EGX approves. The
closing price of traded shares is determined by calculating a volume-weighted average price of the traded
shares for the session. Cumulative transactions below 100 shares do not affect the closing price of the
relevant underlying security.
Brokerage commissions for transactions are not fixed by the EGX or other regulatory bodies, but instead
vary depending on the size of the transaction and the brokerage house executing the trade.

123

124
which case the shareholder shall be liable for the rest of the unpaid portion of the nominal value of the
partly-paid shares.

Voting Rights and Shareholders’ Meetings


General
The Egyptian Companies Law provides for two types of shareholders’ meetings: ordinary and
extraordinary. Shareholders wishing to attend the Ordinary General Meetings or the Extraordinary
General Meetings are required to deposit their shares with the bookkeeping company holding their shares
to be blocked in advance of the Ordinary General Meeting and/or Extraordinary General Meeting and to
present evidence of such deposit in the form of a statement issued by MCDR at least three days prior to
the date of the Ordinary General Meeting. No transfer of ownership of such deposited/frozen shares may
be recorded in Emaar Misr’s/MCDR records until the date of the closing of the meeting.
According to the Statutes, Emaar Misr’s ordinary general meetings may take place in Cairo and upon the
request of the Board of Directors, Emaar Misr’s auditors, as appointed at Emaar Misr’s prior Ordinary
General Meeting, or shareholders together holding or representing at least 5.0% of Emaar Misr’s
outstanding share capital.
The quorum of the Ordinary General Meeting is constituted and the meeting is valid by the presence of
shareholders (or their representatives) representing at least 50.0% of the outstanding share capital and
resolutions passed therein are effective by an absolute majority vote of the shares represented at the
meeting. If a quorum is not met, the meeting is adjourned for a maximum of 30 days. Upon
recommencement of the adjourned meeting, there is no quorum requirement for the meeting to be valid.
An Ordinary General Meeting must be convened once a year within a maximum of three months from the
end of each fiscal year and an invitation must be sent to shareholders within a certain time period prior to
the date upon which the Ordinary General Meeting takes place. Matters that may be considered at these
meetings include, but are not limited to, the election, re-election or dismissal of directors, the approval of
annual financial statements, approval of the Board of Directors’ report, monitoring the Board of Directors’
activities and releasing them from liability, the appointment of statutory auditors, the determination of the
remuneration and allowance of the members of the Board of Directors and the approval of the distribution
of net profits.
Emaar Misr’s extraordinary general meetings are held at any time upon the request of the Board of
Directors or shareholders holding or representing at least 10.0% of Emaar Misr’s outstanding share
capital. The quorum of the Extraordinary General Meeting is constituted and the meeting is valid by the
presence of shareholders (or their representatives) representing at least 50.0% of the outstanding share
capital. The resolutions passed by a majority vote of 66.6% of the Ordinary Shares represented at the
meeting shall be effective. Resolutions pertaining to an increase or decrease of the share capital, mergers
of Emaar Misr and any other entity, amendments to Emaar Misr’s stated objectives or its dissolution
require a super-majority of 75.0% of the Ordinary Shares represented at the meeting. If a quorum is not
present, the meeting is adjourned for a maximum of 30 days. Upon recommencement of the adjourned
meeting, a quorum is constituted and the meeting is valid by the presence of shareholders (or their
representatives) representing at least 25.0% of the outstanding share capital. Certain matters are within
the exclusive scope of the Extraordinary General Meeting, including, without limitation, amendments to
the Statutes, approval of mergers, increases or decreases of the share capital and dissolution of Emaar
Misr.
The Board of Directors must be represented at any shareholders’ meeting by no less than the quorum
required for convening a meeting of the Board of Directors. In all cases the shareholders’ meeting will be
valid if attended by at least three directors, including the Chairman, the Vice Chairman or the Managing
Director, provided that all other conditions regarding the validity of the shareholders’ meeting are met.
A copy of any shareholders’ meeting notification must be sent to the EFSA and GAFI at the same time as
notification to shareholders is effected in order for their representatives to attend the general meeting. The
auditor of Emaar Misr must be invited by registered mail or hand-delivery to attend the meeting. The
auditors must attend the meeting for it to be valid. Pursuant to the EGX Listing Rules, a company must
disclose the resolutions of its shareholders’ meetings to the EGX and the EFSA immediately upon the
convention of such meeting or prior to the next trading session at the EGX at the latest. The executed
minutes of meeting must be submitted to the EGX one week after the convention of such meeting while

125
the ratified minutes by GAFI need to be submitted to the EGX at the most 3 days after receiving the
ratified minutes from GAFI.
The manner of voting in all shareholders’ meetings is by the means proposed by the meeting’s chairman
and approved by the shareholders represented at the meeting. If the resolution to be passed relates to;
(a) the appointment or removal of any director, (b) the filing of any allegations against any director or the
Chairman of the Board, or (c) if at least 10.0% of the shareholders attending the meeting so request, a
secret ballot must be held. No director may vote on any resolution relating to the determination of his
remuneration, fees, discharge of liability or relating to his management conduct. Corporate shareholders
represented on the Board must be represented at the shareholders level by a representative other than its
director on the Board, if relevant.
Any shareholder may attend shareholders’ meetings in person or by proxy. The proxy must be in writing
and must be given to a shareholder. Shareholders that are not represented by directors on the Board may
not give a proxy to a Board director in a shareholders’ meeting to represent them. A shareholder may not
represent by proxy more than 10.0% of the total number of shares in Emaar Misr or 20.0% of the shares
represented at the meeting.
The minutes of the shareholders’ meetings are ratified by GAFI, within a maximum of one month from the
date of convening the meeting and are recorded in a register held by Emaar Misr. Once Emaar Misr is
listed on the EGX, the minutes are required to be disclosed to the EFSA and the EGX immediately
following the meeting and before the following trading session. The minutes, executed by the Chairman,
are required to be delivered to the EGX within a maximum period of one week from the date of convening
the meeting. The ratified minutes are required to be delivered to the EGX within a maximum period of
three business days from the date of receipt from GAFI. The minutes registers are available for review and
inspection by the shareholders, Emaar Misr’s auditor and the competent administrative authorities, but are
not available to the public. However, as Emaar Misr is listed on the EGX, the resolutions will be required
to be disclosed to the EFSA and the EGX and material resolutions are published on the EGX’s website as
a reporting and transparency requirement.
Shareholders who have objected to any given resolution or who did not attend the meeting where the
resolution was passed, for a valid reason, are entitled to request the suspension or nullification of such
resolution if the resolution is found to be in favour or disfavour of a certain group of shareholders or
provides a special benefit to Emaar Misr’s Board of Directors or others without considering Emaar Misr’s
interests. GAFI may act on behalf of the shareholders if so requested.

Dividends
The Statutes provide that dividends, if any, are paid annually based on the net profits generated according
to Emaar Misr’s audited financial statements prepared in accordance with Egyptian Accounting Standards.
Pursuant to the Egyptian Companies Law, Emaar Misr must convene an Ordinary General Meeting no
later than three months after the end of the fiscal year to determine the dividends, if any, to be distributed.
Dividends declared by resolution of the shareholders at an Ordinary General Meeting must be distributed
within one month from the date of the Ordinary General Meeting. The Statutes provide that certain
portions of Emaar Misr’s profits should be allocated as legal reserves, distribution to employees,
shareholders’ dividends and remuneration of the Board of Directors. See ‘‘Dividend Policy’’.

Increases and Reductions in Capital


Emaar Misr’s share capital may be decreased or increased only by a resolution adopted at a duly convened
Extraordinary General Meeting by a 75.0% majority of the Ordinary Shares present or represented at the
meeting. The approval of the EFSA is required for the issuance of any new shares and also on the
reduction of the capital. Ratification by GAFI is required on the minutes of the Extraordinary General
Meeting or Board meeting, as applicable, approving the capital increase or decrease. Furthermore, any
amendment to Articles 6 and 7 of the Statues in connection with an increase or decrease of the authorised
and/or issued share capital of Emaar Misr requires the approval of the Chairman of GAFI as Emaar Misr
is incorporated pursuant to the Egyptian Investment Law. Changes in the share capital must also be
registered with the MCDR, and the issuance of new shares should be listed on the EGX within three
months of the date of the action that created the issuance. Capital decreases should be registered with the
EGX within three months of the date of the resolution of the Extraordinary General Meeting approving
the decrease. Moreover, changes in Emaar Misr’s share capital must be inscribed on the commercial
register extract of Emaar Misr.

126
Increases in the share capital must be made at fair value at the time of issuance of the shares in accordance
with a fair valuation report issued by an independent financial advisor (an ‘‘IFA’’), provided that the rights
issue allocated among existing shareholders of Emaar Misr may be made at par value subject to the
approval by the Extraordinary General Meeting. For all capital increases, approval at an Extraordinary
General Meeting is required. The decision of the Extraordinary General Meeting determines whether the
shares may be offered to a new investor or to existing shareholders. However, where the decision is to offer
shares to new investors, the Board of Directors must submit substantive reasons along with an auditor
report indicating the benefits the Company will achieve from offering the shares to new investors. The
Extraordinary General Meeting may approve the waiver of any pre-emption rights. An IFA report is
required if any new shares are offered to a new investor at fair value. In the case of rights’ issuance, the
subscription rights may be traded by the holders of the shares together with the Ordinary Shares before the
commencement of the subscription period and independently from the shares following the
commencement of the subscription period. If a rights issue is made above par value, an IFA report will be
required.
According to the EGX Listing Rules, Emaar Misr may not increase or decrease its share capital, publish
the invitation to any Extraordinary General Meeting to consider the same or carry out the required
procedures, without submitting a disclosure report in the prescribed form to the EGX together with the
relevant Board minutes approving the increase or decrease, the EGX’s approval of such report and its
publication on the EGX trading screens. The invitation of the Extraordinary General Meeting for the
commencement of capital increase or decrease procedures must be made within one week at most from
the date of EGX’s approval of the disclosure report and its publication on EGX trading screens. The
relevant Board minutes must include an authorisation to the Chairman to undertake the same.

Certificates, Registry and Transfer


The Ordinary Shares are registered on the MCDR system in a dematerialised form and cannot be held in
certificated form. The Ordinary Shares are eligible for clearing and settlement through the MCDR system.
Emaar Misr is entitled to request the MCDR at any time to issue a detailed statement of the registered
owners of the Ordinary Shares. As Emaar Misr is listed on the EGX, all transfers of Ordinary Shares will
be effected on the EGX in accordance with the EGX trading rules through EFSA-licenced brokers, and
are recorded on the electronic book-entry system of the MCDR and reflected in the statements of account
issued by the authorised custodians.
According to the EGX Listing Rules and the Capital Market Law, each shareholder acquiring, including
through its related parties, 5.0% or multiples thereof of the outstanding Ordinary Shares or subscription
rights of Emaar Misr must disclose the same, and shareholders must also disclose when their shareholdings
fall below 5.0% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares. The above threshold is 3.0% and its multiples for
Directors, employees and related parties thereof. In the event that the stake acquired by the shareholder,
including its related parties, represents 25.0% or more of the Ordinary Shares or voting rights, the
purchasing shareholder must disclose its future investment plan and intention with regard to the
management of Emaar Misr. In each of the above cases, disclosure must be made to the EGX in the
prescribed form and prior to the commencement of the next trading session. The EGX publishes such
disclosures immediately on the trading screens and on its website.
According to Article 331 of the Executive Regulations of the Capital Market Law, a person may acquire,
independently or together with related parties, less than one-third of the share capital or voting rights of
Emaar Misr through open market transactions (i.e., by applying the normal EGX trading rules) or through
a voluntary tender offer. According to Article 353 of the Executive Regulations of the Capital Market Law,
the obligation to launch a mandatory tender offer for the acquisition of 100.0% of the shares, voting
securities and convertible securities of Emaar Misr would arise in any of the following situations:
(i) if a person acquires, independently or together with related parties, one-third or more of the share
capital or voting rights of Emaar Misr; provided, however, that the EFSA may temporarily exempt
such person from this obligation if the percentage in excess does not exceed 3.0% of the share capital
or voting rights of Emaar Misr, and such excess percentage is disposed of within a period not
exceeding six months from reaching the one-third threshold, and the excess shares do not entitle the
holder to any voting rights within such period (i.e., until the disposal of the excess percentage takes
place);
(ii) if a person that holds, independently or together with related parties, between one-third and one-half
of the share capital or voting rights of Emaar Misr, independently or together with related parties, and

127
(a) acquires more than an additional 2.0% of the share capital or voting rights within 12 consecutive
months, or (b) exceeds one-half of the share capital or voting rights at any point in time; or
(iii) if a person that holds, independently or together with related parties, between one-half and three-
quarters of the share capital or voting rights of Emaar Misr, independently or together with related
parties, and (a) acquires more than an additional 2.0% of the share capital or voting rights within 12
consecutive months, or (b) exceeds three-quarters of the share capital or voting rights at any point in
time.
The foregoing provisions do not apply in case of the decrease of capital due to the cancellation of treasury
shares or the increase of capital in cash or though debt-to-equity swaps. However, it will apply where there
are purchases of subscription rights.

Liquidation Rights and Other Distributions


In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Emaar Misr, the assets of Emaar Misr are to
be applied to satisfy its liabilities. If any surplus remains, shareholders would participate on a pro-rata basis
in any such surplus.
If, during Emaar Misr’s financial year, the losses of Emaar Misr exceed 50.0% or more of its capital, an
Extraordinary General Meeting must be convened upon the invitation of the Board to decide whether to
dissolve Emaar Misr or to continue its activities. Resolutions of the Extraordinary General Meeting in
relation to dissolution or continuation are adopted by a three-quarters majority of the shares present or
represented at the meeting.

Pre-emptive Rights
If there is an increase in the share capital of Emaar Misr by the issuance of shares, the Egyptian
Companies Law and the Statutes provide that the existing shareholders have pre-emptive rights in
connection with that share issue pro rata to the percentage held by each existing shareholder prior to the
issuance of the new shares, unless the Extraordinary General Meeting resolves by a 75.0% majority of the
shares present or represented at the relevant meeting to offer part or all of the capital increase shares in a
public subscription without applying the pre-emptive rights.
Although any pre-emptive rights in connection with any future issuance of shares for cash will be (unless
waived) available to the holders of Ordinary Shares, U.S. holders of Ordinary Shares may not be entitled
to exercise their pre-emptive rights unless a registration statement under the Securities Act has been
declared effective in respect of such rights and such Ordinary Shares or an exemption from the registration
requirements thereunder is available. Emaar Misr intends to evaluate at the time of any pre-emptive rights
offering the costs and potential liabilities associated with the filing of any such registration statement or
qualifying for any such exemption, if required, as well as the indirect benefits to it of enabling the exercise
of pre-emptive rights by U.S. holders of Ordinary Shares and any other factors Emaar Misr considers
appropriate at such time, and then to make a decision regarding whether to file such registration statement
or seek to qualify for such exemption. If no registration statement is filed and Emaar Misr does not take
steps to comply with an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act in relation
to such rights, the registrar is required to sell U.S. holders’ pre-emptive rights or, in its discretion, to
arrange for such rights to be exercised and the resulting shares or securities to be sold and to distribute the
net proceeds thereof to U.S. holders. See ‘‘Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Shares—Shareholders in the
United States may be unable to participate in future rights offerings’’.

Acquisition of its Own Shares


Emaar Misr may purchase its own shares pursuant to a Board resolution in order to reduce its outstanding
share capital, to make a distribution to its employees in the form of an ESOP, or in connection with
delisting from the EGX. In accordance with the Egyptian Companies Law, if Emaar Misr acquires its own
shares, it must either resell such shares within a maximum of one year of the date of acquisition or cancel
such shares; in addition to this obligation the EGX Listing Rules include an additional obligation of
maintaining such treasury shares for a minimum period of three months prior to the reselling or
cancellation. Treasury shares do not have distribution of profits or voting rights.
Furthermore, as Emaar Misr is listed, according to the EGX Listing Rules, any treasury buyback by Emaar
Misr must be made in compliance with the EGX directives guaranteeing equality among investors and
market stability. Emaar Misr may not acquire or own more than 10.0% of its listed share capital in the

128
form of treasury shares. Emaar Misr must hold the treasury shares acquired for a minimum of three
months and a maximum of one year, after which they must be cancelled and the capital decreased
accordingly.
Emaar Misr must first hold a meeting of the Board of Directors to approve the treasury buyback and
subsequently notify the EGX of its wish to acquire treasury shares at least three business days before
carrying out the acquisition. The notice must include the reasons for the acquisition, the source of
financing, the expected impact on Emaar Misr’s performance indicators, the purchase price, the quantity,
the envisaged period of implementation and Emaar Misr’s broker. The minutes of the Board of Directors’
meeting must be attached to the notice.
The securities acquired by Emaar Misr must be local shares (i.e., not including depositary receipts). Emaar
Misr must disclose to the EGX the percentage of treasury shares acquired or disposed of at the end of
each day in which transactions in treasury shares take place, and the EGX publishes the disclosed
information on its trading screens and website.

129

131
TAXATION
The following summary of material U.S. federal income and Egyptian tax consequences of the acquisition,
ownership, and disposition of Ordinary Shares is of a general nature and based upon laws, regulations, decrees,
rulings, double taxation conventions, agreements and arrangements, administrative practice and judicial
decisions in effect as of the date of this Offering Memorandum. Legislative, judicial or administrative changes
or interpretations may, however, be forthcoming that could alter or modify the statements and conclusions set
forth herein. Any such changes or interpretations may be retroactive and could affect the tax consequences to
holders of the Ordinary Shares. This summary does not purport to be a legal opinion or to address all tax
aspects that may be relevant to a holder of Ordinary Shares.
EACH PROSPECTIVE HOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT HIS, HER OR ITS TAX ADVISER AS
TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH HOLDER OF THE ACQUISITION,
OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF ORDINARY SHARES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY
AND EFFECT OF ANY OTHER TAX LAWS OR TAX TREATIES, AND OF PENDING OR
PROPOSED CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX LAWS AS OF THE DATE OF THIS OFFERING
MEMORANDUM AND OF ANY ACTUAL CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX LAWS AFTER SUCH
DATE.

Certain Egyptian Tax Considerations


The following is a summary of the principal tax consequences for holders of Ordinary Shares who are not
residents in Egypt (‘‘Non-Residents’’). This summary addresses only the tax consequences for
Non-Resident investors.

Dividend Withholding Tax


Dividends were not previously taxable under the Egyptian tax law No. 91 for 2005 (the ‘‘Egyptian Tax
Law’’). However, Presidential Decree issuing Law No. 53 for 2014 amending the Egyptian Tax Law (the
‘‘Tax Law Reform’’) was recently passed and introduced dividend withholding tax. It should be kept under
consideration that the Tax Law Reform has made substantial changes and is quite new to the market.
The Egyptian Tax Law, as amended by the Tax Law Reform, defines dividends as any income resulting
from shares including preferred shares, founding shares or any other instruments giving their holders an
entitlement to participate in the profits of an Egyptian company.
According to the Egyptian Tax Law, as amended by the Tax Law Reform, dividends distributed by Egyptian
companies and partnerships (including profits realised by a Non-Resident’s permanent establishment in
Egypt) to Non-Residents are subject to a flat rate withholding tax amounting to 10% of such dividends
without deducting any costs or expenses. Bonus shares are not subject to such withholding tax.
The amount of withholding tax applicable to dividends’ distribution to Non-Residents is reduced to 5%
without deducting any costs or expenses providing that (i) the Non-Resident to which dividends will be
distributed holds more than 25% of such company’s capital or voting rights; and (ii) the Non-Resident
holds such shareholding for no less than 2 years.

Taxation of Capital Gains


Capital gains resulting from the sale of listed shares (‘‘CGT’’) were not previously taxable under the
Egyptian Tax Law, but were recently introduced under the Tax Law Reform.
According to the Egyptian Tax Law, as amended by the Tax Law Reform, capital gains realised from
disposing of companies’ shares listed on EGX or shares of Egyptian resident companies that are not listed
on EGX are taxable, whether such gains have been realised in Egypt or elsewhere.
Further, the Egyptian Tax Law as amended by the Tax Law Reform provides that capital gains realised by
Non-Residents as outlined above shall be subject to a flat CGT rate of 10% without deducting any costs or
expenses.
CGT is calculated based on the net capital profits realised by the portfolio (total owned stocks) at the end
of the fiscal year based on the difference between the swap or sale price (or by any other means of
disposing the relevant securities) and the price of its acquisition after deducting brokerage commissions.
The Egyptian authority executing the trade, i.e., MCDR, shall withhold and remit to the Egyptian tax
authority 6% of the amount of realised capital gains for each trade in accordance with the procedures set

132
forth in the executive regulations of the Egyptian Tax Law. Settlement shall take place every three months
on account of tax. The remaining balance is declared by the Non-Resident directly with the Egyptian tax
authority by filing the required forms pursuant to the procedures set by the Egyptian tax authority.
MCDR shall, at the end of the fiscal year, settle the difference between the CGT amount which has been
withheld and remitted to the Egyptian tax authority with the actual CGT amount due at the end of the
fiscal year. The Egyptian tax authority shall rebate any amounts which have been withheld and remitted in
excess to actual due CGT in accordance with the procedures and within the timeframes set forth in the
executive regulations of the Egyptian Tax Law.
On 17 May 2015, the Egyptian Ministerial Cabinet decided to postpone the application of the capital gains
tax for two years. However, as of the date of this Offering Memorandum, no formal regulation has been
promulgated to this effect. The Minister of Investment stated on 28 May 2015, that the amendments
pertaining to the postponement of the application of the capital gains tax would be issued within three
weeks and would be applicable as of 17 May 2015.

Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations


The following is a discussion of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership
and disposition of Ordinary Shares by a U.S. Holder (as defined below). This discussion deals only with
initial purchasers of Ordinary Shares that are U.S. Holders and that will hold the Ordinary Shares as
capital assets. This discussion does not address the effects of any U.S. federal tax laws other than U.S.
federal income tax laws (such as estate and gift tax laws) or any state, local or non-U.S. tax laws. This
discussion is based on the tax laws of the United States, including the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the ‘‘Code’’), U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative rulings and
judicial interpretations thereof, as well as on the Income tax Convention Between the United States of
America and Egypt (the ‘‘U.S. Treaty’’), in each case as in effect of the date hereof. All of the foregoing
authorities are subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax
consequences described below. There can be no assurance that the United States Internal Revenue Service
(the ‘‘IRS’’) or U.S. courts will agree with the tax consequences described in this discussion.
The discussion does not cover all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to an
investor in light of such investor’s particular circumstances, including the impact of the unearned income
Medicare contribution tax, or to investors subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax
laws (such as banks or other financial institutions; insurance companies; tax-exempt organisations;
regulated investment companies; real estate investment trusts; investors liable for the alternative minimum
tax; U.S. expatriates; dealers in securities or currencies; traders in securities; persons that directly,
indirectly or constructively own 10% or more of the Company’s equity interests; investors that will hold the
Ordinary Shares as part of straddles, hedging transactions or conversion transactions for U.S. federal
income tax purposes; or U.S. Holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar). This discussion
applies to only U.S. Holders who qualify for benefits under the U.S. Treaty and are residents of the United
States for purposes of the U.S. Treaty.
As used herein, the term ‘‘U.S. Holder’’ means a beneficial owner of Ordinary Shares that is, for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation or
any entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes created or organised under the
laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (iii) an estate the income of which
is subject to U.S. federal income tax without regard to its source; or (iv) a trust if (a) a court within the
United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more
U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (b) the trust a valid
election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
If any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Ordinary
Shares, the U.S. tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend on the status of the partner and
the activities of the partnership. Prospective purchasers that are partnerships or partners in partnerships
should consult their tax advisors concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition,
ownership and disposition of Ordinary Shares.
THE SUMMARY OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES SET OUT BELOW IS FOR
GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. ALL PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS SHOULD CONSULT
THEIR TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF OWNING ORDINARY
SHARES IN LIGHT OF THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING THE

133
APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF OTHER FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER
TAX LAWS AND POSSIBLE CHANGES IN TAX LAW.

Distributions
Subject to the discussion below under ‘‘—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations,’’ the gross
amount of any distribution of cash or property with respect to the Ordinary Shares generally will be
included in a U.S. Holder’s gross income as dividend income to the extent such distributions are paid out
of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income
tax principles). Because the Company does not maintain calculations of its earnings and profits under U.S.
federal income tax principles, U.S. Holders should assume that any distribution will be treated as a
dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The amount of a dividend will include any amounts
withheld in respect of foreign taxes. A dividend will be included in a U.S. Holder’s income as ordinary
income on the date such U.S. Holder receives it, and it will be treated as foreign-source dividend income.
The dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally allowed to corporate U.S.
Holders.
Subject to certain holding period requirements and other conditions, dividends paid to individuals and
other non-corporate U.S. Holders of the Ordinary Shares may be eligible for preferential rates of taxation
if the dividends are ‘‘qualified dividends’’ for U.S. federal income tax purpose. Dividends received with
respect to the Ordinary Shares may be qualified dividends if the Company (i) is eligible for the benefits of
a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that the IRS has approved for purposes of the
qualified dividend rules, and (ii) was not a passive foreign investment company (‘‘PFIC’’) during the year
in which the dividend is paid or the prior taxable year and certain other requirements. The U.S. Treaty has
been approved for purposes of the qualified dividend rules and the Company expects to be eligible for the
benefits of the U.S. Treaty. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the
relevant rules to their particular circumstances.

Foreign Currency Dividends


The amount of a dividend will be treated as foreign-source dividend income. The gross amount of any
dividend income paid in foreign currency will be the U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the spot
market exchange rate in effect on the date of receipt, regardless of whether the payment is in fact
converted into U.S. dollars on that date. If the dividend is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of
receipt, a U.S. Holder should not be required to recognise foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the
dividend income. A U.S. Holder may have foreign currency gain or loss if the dividend is converted into
U.S. dollars after the date of receipt, which gain or loss will be U.S.-source ordinary income or loss.

Effect of Egyptian Withholding Taxes


Under current Egyptian law (see ‘‘—Certain Egyptian Tax Considerations—Dividend Withholding Tax’’),
dividends paid by an Egyptian corporation to a U.S. Holder will ordinarily be subject to Egyptian
withholding tax. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders will be treated as having received the
amount of Egyptian taxes withheld by the Company, and as then having paid over the withheld taxes to the
Egyptian tax authority. As a result of this rule, the amount of dividend income included in gross income for
U.S. federal income tax purposes by a U.S. Holder with respect to a payment of dividends may be greater
than the amount of cash actually received (or receivable) by the U.S. Holder.

Foreign Tax Credit


A U.S. Holder generally will be entitled, subject to certain limitations, to a credit against its U.S. federal
income tax liability, or to a deduction, if elected, in computing its U.S. federal taxable income, for
non-refundable Egyptian income taxes withheld from dividends not exceeding the applicable rate under
the U.S. Treaty. An election to deduct foreign taxes instead of claiming foreign tax credits must apply to all
foreign taxes paid or accrued in the taxable year. U.S. Holders that are eligible for benefits under the U.S.
Treaty will not be entitled to a foreign tax credit for the amount of any Egyptian taxes withheld in excess of
the applicable rate or for any Egyptian taxes which are refundable because they were imposed at a rate in
excess of the applicable U.S. Treaty rate. In most circumstances, the Egyptian statutory withholding tax
rate on dividends should be less than the applicable withholding tax rate on dividends under the U.S.
Treaty. Aspects of the Egyptian legislation remain unclear and a U.S. Holder should consult its tax advisor

134
to determine whether it needs to apply for a reduced U.S. Treaty rate and what U.S. Treaty certification
requirements would be required under Egyptian law.

Sale, Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition


Subject to the discussion below under ‘‘—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations,’’ a U.S.
Holder generally will recognise gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of the
Ordinary Shares equal to the difference between the amount realised on such sale or exchange and the
U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Ordinary Shares. Such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or
loss. Such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for
the Ordinary Shares exceeds one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant
limitations. Any gain or loss generally will be U.S.-source gain or loss for foreign tax credit purposes.
A U.S. Holder’s initial tax basis in its Ordinary Shares generally will be the U.S. dollar value of the foreign
currency denominated purchase price of the Ordinary Shares on the date of purchase. If the Ordinary
Shares are treated as traded on an ‘‘established securities market,’’ a cash basis U.S. Holder or, if it elects,
an accrual basis U.S. Holder, will determine the U.S. dollar value of the cost of such Ordinary Shares by
translating the amount paid at the spot rate of exchange on the settlement date of the purchase. Such an
election by an accrual basis U.S. Holder must be applied consistently from year to year and cannot be
revoked without the consent of the IRS. The amount realised generally will be the U.S. dollar value of the
payment received determined on the date of disposition. If the Ordinary Shares are treated as traded on an
established securities market, a cash basis taxpayer or, if it elects, an accrual basis taxpayer, will determine
the U.S. dollar value of the amount realised by translating the amount received at the spot rate of
exchange on the settlement date of the sale.
On the settlement date, the U.S. Holder will recognise U.S.-source foreign currency gain or loss (taxable as
ordinary income or loss) equal to the difference (if any) between the U.S. dollar value of the amount
received based on the exchange rates in effect on the date of sale or other disposition and the settlement
date. However, in the case of Ordinary Shares traded on an established securities market that are sold by a
cash basis U.S. Holder (or an accrual basis U.S. Holder that so elects), the amount realised will be based
on the exchange rate in effect on the settlement date for the sale, and no exchange gain or loss will be
recognised at that time.
The U.S. Treaty provides that gains from the alienation of Ordinary Shares in a corporation the property of
which consists principally of real property situated in Egypt may be taxed by the Egyptian tax authority as
income from Egyptian real property. In light of its extensive holdings in Egyptian real property, the
Company believes it should be treated as a corporation the property of which consists principally of
Egyptian real property. If the Company is treated as such a corporation, then U.S. holders may elect to
have such gain from the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of the Ordinary Shares be treated as
foreign-source income pursuant to the terms of the U.S. Treaty. U.S. Holders may be able to claim a
foreign tax credit for Egyptian taxes paid on such sale, exchange or disposition, subject to certain
limitations. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of such election and
treatment.
As described in ‘‘—Certain Egyptian Tax Considerations—Taxation of Capital Gains,’’ the precise application
of the Egyptian capital gains tax remains uncertain, and limitations on the credibility or deductibility of
foreign taxes for U.S. federal income tax purposes are complex. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax
advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of any Egyptian capital gains taxes and the
availability of the foreign tax credit or deduction under their particular circumstances.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations


A non-U.S. corporation will be a PFIC for U.S. federal tax purposes in any taxable year in which, after
taking into account the income and assets of the corporation and certain subsidiaries pursuant to
applicable look-through rules, either:
(i) at least 75% of its gross income is ‘‘passive income;’’ or
(ii) at least 50% of the average quarterly value of its gross assets (which may be determined in part by the
market value of Ordinary Shares, which is subject to change) is attributable to assets that produce
‘‘passive income’’ or are held for the production of ‘‘passive income’’.

135
Passive income for this purpose generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents and certain gains
from commodities (other than commodities sold in an active trade or business) and securities transactions.
The Company does not believe that it was classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for its
most recent taxable year ending 31 December 2014, and based on the nature of the Company’s business,
the projected composition of the Company’s income and the projected composition and estimated fair
market values of the Company’s assets, the Company does not expect to be a PFIC for U.S. federal income
tax purposes for the Company’s current taxable year or the foreseeable future. Whether the Company is a
PFIC is a factual determination made annually, and the Company’s status could change depending upon,
among other things, changes in the composition and relative value of its gross receipts and assets
(including the amount of cash held by the Company), which may be dependent on the market value of the
Ordinary Shares, and the manner in which the Company otherwise conducts its business. Accordingly, no
assurance can be given that the Company will not be a PFIC in the current or any future taxable year.
If the Company is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds Ordinary
Shares, gain recognised by a U.S. Holder upon a sale or other taxable disposition (including certain
pledges) of Ordinary Shares will generally be allocated rateably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for
such Ordinary Shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other taxable disposition
and to years before the Company became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount
allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for that taxable
year for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the tax
attributable to the allocated amount. Further, to the extent that any distribution received by a U.S. Holder
on Ordinary Shares exceeds 125% of the average of the annual distributions on such Ordinary Shares
received during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter, that
distribution would be subject to taxation in the same manner as gain, described immediately above.
Certain elections may be available that would result in alternative treatments (such as mark-to-market
treatment) of the Ordinary Shares. An election for mark-to-market treatment is available only if the
Ordinary Shares are considered ‘‘marketable stock,’’ which generally includes stock that is regularly traded
in more than de minimis quantities on a qualifying exchange. No assurance can be given that the Ordinary
Shares will be considered regularly traded on a qualifying exchange, and therefore considered ‘‘marketable
stock,’’ for purposes of the PFIC mark-to-market election. Each U.S. Holder is encouraged to consult its
own tax advisor as to whether a mark-to-market election is available or desirable in their particular
circumstances.
The Company does not intend to prepare or provide the information that would enable U.S. Holders to
make a ‘‘qualified electing fund’’ election.
U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the Company’s possible PFIC status and the
consequences to them if the Company were a PFIC for any taxable year.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding


In general, payments of dividends and other proceeds with respect to the Ordinary Shares held by a U.S.
Holder may be required to be reported to the IRS unless the U.S. Holder is an exempt recipient and, when
required, demonstrates this fact. In addition, a U.S. Holder that is not an exempt recipient may be subject
to backup withholding unless it provides a taxpayer identification number and otherwise complies with
applicable certification requirements.
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited
against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle a U.S. Holder to a refund,
provided that the appropriate information is timely furnished to the IRS. U.S. Holders should consult with
their own tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding
regime.
Certain non-corporate U.S. Holders are required to report information with respect to investments in
Ordinary Shares not held through an account with certain financial institutions. U.S. Holders that fail to
report required information could become subject to substantial penalties. Potential investors are
encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors about these and any other reporting obligations arising
from their investment in Ordinary Shares.

136
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Emaar Misr and the Managers have entered into the Underwriting Agreement with respect to the
Institutional Offering. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set out in the Underwriting
Agreement, each Manager has agreed, severally but not jointly, to act as the Company’s agents and to use
reasonable endeavours to procure purchasers for, or failing which, to purchase itself from the Company, at
the Offer Price, such number of Institutional Offering Shares set forth opposite its name in the following
table. Emirates Financial Services PSC is acting as a manager in connection with the Institutional Offering
but not as an underwriter. Emirates NBD Bank PJSC, an affiliate of Emirates Financial Services PSC, is
acting only as an underwriter in connection with the Institutional Offering and will have the obligation to
purchase Institutional Offering Shares for which Emirates Financial Services PSC fails to procure
purchasers.

The Underwriting Agreement does not relate to the Egyptian Public Offering and the Managers are not
under any obligation to procure purchasers for, or to purchase any, Public Offering Shares offered in the
Egyptian Public Offering. Furthermore, J.P. Morgan has no obligation to underwrite sales to Egyptian
institutions in the Institutional Offering.
The net proceeds from the sale of the New Shares (assuming all Public Offering Shares are offered and
sold in the Egyptian Public Offering) are expected to amount to approximately EGP 2,180,000,000
(US$285.6 million), after deducting underwriting commissions, discretionary fees and expected expenses of
approximately EGP 100,000,000 (US$13.1 million), attributed to the Combined Offering, and assuming no
Ordinary Shares are purchased during the Stabilisation Period using the Stabilisation Fund. All expenses of
the Combined Offering will be borne by the Company.

Underwriting Agreement
In the Underwriting Agreement, Emaar Misr has made certain representations and warranties and will
agreed to indemnify the several Managers against certain liabilities, including liability under the Securities
Act. The obligations of the Managers are subject to approval of legal matters by counsel, including the
validity of the New Shares, and other conditions contained in the Underwriting Agreement.
The Joint Global Coordinators may terminate the Underwriting Agreement prior to 25 June 2015 (the
‘‘Prefunding Longstop Date’’) under certain specified conditions that are typical for an agreement of this
nature. If any of the conditions are not satisfied or waived, or if the Underwriting Agreement is otherwise
terminated prior to the Prefunding Longstop Date, then the Institutional Offering will be terminated.

Offer Price
The Offer Price is EGP 3.80 per New Shares. The Institutional Offering Shares and the Public Offering
Shares are offered at the Offer Price.

Allocation
The Combined Offering comprises the Institutional Offering and the Egyptian Public Offering. The
allocation of New Shares in the Institutional Offering has been determined by Emaar Misr in consultation
with the Managers. The allocation of New Shares in the Egyptian Public Offering will be conducted on a
pro rata basis in the case of oversubscription, without discretion. Factors that may be taken into account
when determining the allocations between prospective investors in the event of over-subscription may
include participation in the marketing process for the Combined Offering, holding behaviour in previous
offerings, holdings in similar companies, pre-funding of indication of interest and other factors that Emaar
Misr and the Managers may deem relevant.

137
The Company, in consultation with the Managers, may re-allocate New Shares from either the Institutional
Offering to the Egyptian Public Offering or from the Egyptian Public Offering to the Institutional Offering
depending on the level of subscription for each tranche. Any re-allocation of New Shares from the
Institutional Offering to the Egyptian Public Offering will take place at least three business days prior to
the closing of the Egyptian Public Offering which is scheduled for 25 June 2015. Any re-allocation from the
Egyptian Public Offering to the Institutional Offering will take place on the day following the closing of the
Egyptian Public Offering which is scheduled for 25 June 2015.

Subscription, Prefunding, Settlement and Transfer of the Ordinary Shares


The process between establishment of the Offer Price and commencement of trading of the New Shares is
expected to occur as follows:

Date Event

18 June 2015 . . . . . . . . . . Offer Price announced and allocations made


25 June 2015 . . . . . . . . . . Prefunding Longstop Date
25 June – 2 July 2015* . . . Finalisation of capital increase procedures with various regulatory bodies
2 July 2015* . . . . . . . . . . . Settlement (transfer by the MCDR to investors’ local custody accounts
and transfer of funds by receiving bank to the Company) and
commencement of trading on EGX

* Subject to receipt of regulatory approvals.

All investors in the Institutional Offering must (i) establish a valid client specific custody account with a
custodian authorised by the EFSA (a ‘‘Local Custodian’’) into which such investor’s Institutional Offering
Shares can be delivered and (ii) obtain a unique, personalised stock exchange code for the EGX (a
‘‘Unified Code’’). The process of establishing an account with a Local Custodian and obtaining a Unified Code
can take up to two weeks, and these are required in order to subscribe for Institutional Offering Shares.
Investors will need to provide, among other things, information as to their legal name and any sub account
details, together with details of their custody account and their Unified Code, when submitting a request
for an allocation of Institutional Offering Shares.
In order to effect the issuance and listing of the New Shares, all investors in the New Shares (including
investors in the Institutional Offering Shares) must prefund the purchase of such New Shares, no later than
the Prefunding Longstop Date. Payment for the New Shares is expected to be made to the Company’s
capital increase account and the New Shares will come into existence and be admitted for unconditional
trading once GAFI and EFSA approvals are obtained, the Company’s Statutes are amended, the New
Shares are recorded in book-entry form with the MCDR and the New Shares are listed on the EGX. The
delivery of the New Shares is expected to take place on or around 2 July 2015, subject to receipt of such
approvals.
The trading in the New Shares is conditional upon the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) at least
10% of the Company’s issued capital is owned by shareholders (other than the founders of the Company),
(ii) 5% of the Company’s total outstanding shares is free float (as defined in the EGX Listing Rules)
having a market value of not less than EGP 10 million, and (iii) the New Shares are being subscribed for by
a minimum of 300 investors.
The Local Custodian designated by the purchaser will hold the ordinary shares in accordance with the
purchaser’s instructions. Ownership of the ordinary shares will be shown on, and any transfer of that
ownership will be executed on, the EGX books and will be effected through the records of the MCDR. All
transfers of ownership of the ordinary shares must be effected on the EGX by an EFSA-licensed broker.
Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions described in ‘‘Transfer Restrictions’’, purchasers wishing
to sell their ordinary shares must instruct an EFSA-licensed broker to block such ordinary shares. The
broker then must effect such sale through the EGX which will register such sale on the EGX books. See
‘‘Securities Market Information—Stock Exchange Trading Mechanisms’’ for more information.
None of the Company, the Principal Shareholder or the Managers will have any responsibility for the
performance by any Local Custodian or its agents of their respective obligations under the rules and
procedures governing their operations.

138
Stabilisation
In connection with the Combined Offering, the Stabilisation Manager, or any of its agents, may effect
transactions in the ordinary shares on the EGX with a view to supporting or maintaining the market price
of the ordinary shares at a level higher than that which might have otherwise prevailed in the open market.
However, there is no assurance that the Stabilisation Manager (or persons acting on its behalf) will
undertake any stabilisation action. Any stabilising action may begin on or after the date of the
commencement of trading of ordinary shares on the EGX, and if begun, may end at any time, but must end
no later than 30 calendar days after that date (referred to as the Stabilisation Period). The Company will
finance an amount equal to 15% of the gross proceeds of the Combined Offering (referred to as the
Stabilisation Fund) and make such funds available to the Stabilisation Manager prior to commencement of
trading. Starting on the commencement of trading, the Stabilisation Manager will place an open purchase
order at the Offer Price, which will remain open until the end of the Stabilisation Period. At the end of the
Stabilisation Period this open purchase order will be matched with open sale orders and executed on the
EGX. If the purchase order submitted by the Stabilisation Manager exceeds the amount deposited in the
Stabilisation Fund, such purchase orders will be executed on a pro rata basis up to the amount of the
Stabilisation Fund and all ordinary shares purchased will be placed in the Stabilisation Fund. The
Stabilisation Manager will remit to the Company, at the end of the Stabilisation Period, any proceeds of
the Combined Offering then remaining in the Stabilisation Fund and any remaining ordinary shares
purchased during the Stabilisation Period using the Stabilisation Fund. The Stabilisation Manager will
disclose the stabilisation transactions to the EGX at the end of the Stabilisation Period.

Lock-up Arrangements
The Company has agreed that, without the prior written consent of the Joint Global Coordinators (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), it and its officers and directors will not during a
period of 180 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, directly or indirectly, issue, offer, pledge,
sell, contract to sell, sell or grant any option, right, warrant or contract to purchase, exercise any option to
sell, purchase any option or contract to sell, or lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or
indirectly, any Ordinary Shares (including treasury shares), or securities convertible or exchangeable into
or exercisable for any Ordinary Shares or warrants or other rights to purchase Ordinary Shares or any
security or financial product whose value is determined directly or indirectly by reference to the price of
the Ordinary Shares, (ii) enter into any swap, or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in
whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Ordinary Shares, in
each case, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or other securities,
in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce such an intention to effect any such transaction. These
restrictions shall not apply to the sale of the New Shares to be sold in the Combined Offering or to the
Ordinary Shares that Emaar Misr may issue pursuant to the ESOP described in this Offering
Memorandum.
The Principal Shareholder has agreed that, without the prior written consent of the Joint Global
Coordinators (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), it will not during a period of
180 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, directly or indirectly, offer, pledge, sell, contract to
sell, sell or grant any option, right, warrant, or contract to purchase, exercise any option to sell, purchase
any option or contract to sell, or lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any
Ordinary Shares, or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any Ordinary Shares or
warrants or other rights to purchase Ordinary Shares or any security or financial product whose value is
determined directly or indirectly by reference to the price of the Ordinary Shares, (ii) enter into any swap,
or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the
economic consequence of ownership of the Ordinary Shares, in each case, whether any such transaction is
to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly
announce such an intention to effect any such transaction. These lock-up restrictions shall not apply to
(i) any inter-company transfers of Ordinary Shares by Emaar Properties in favour of its affiliates;
(ii) acceptance of a general offer made to all holders of Ordinary Shares then in issue (other than Ordinary
Shares held by the person making the offer or its affiliates) on terms which treat all holders of Ordinary
Shares alike, or executing and delivering an irrevocable commitment or undertaking to accept such a
general offer (without any further agreement to transfer or dispose of any Ordinary Shares or any interest
therein); (iii) taking up any rights granted in respect of a pre-emptive share offering by the Company;
(iv) selling or otherwise disposing of Ordinary Shares pursuant to any offer by the Company to purchase its
own Ordinary Shares which is made on identical terms to all holders of Ordinary Shares in the Company;

139
(v) any disposal by and/or allotment and issue of shares to Emaar Properties pursuant to any capital
reorganisation in respect of any Ordinary Shares beneficially owned, held or controlled by Emaar
Properties, provided that any shares issued to or otherwise acquired by Emaar Properties pursuant to such
capital reorganisation shall be subject to the restrictions of this clause; or (vi) transferring or otherwise
disposing of Ordinary Shares pursuant to a compromise or arrangement between the Company and its
creditors or any class of them or between the Company and its members of any class of them which is
agreed to by the creditor or members and (where required) sanctioned by any applicable authority. It is
agreed that the carve-out in subsection (i) above is subject to the following conditions: (x) that any of such
affiliate transferees shall agree to be bound by the lock-up obligations of Emaar Properties described
above during the lock-up period; and (y) that any of such inter-company transfers of Ordinary Shares shall
be performed on terms and conditions that do not conflict with the Combined Offering.
In addition, the Principal Shareholder is subject to a statutory lock-up requirement (as set forth in the
EGX Listing Rules issued by EFSA Decree No. 11 dated 22 January 2014), which requires the Principal
Shareholder to maintain at least 51% (as measured prior to the Combined Offering) of its Ordinary Shares
for a period of two years following the commencement of trading of the Ordinary Shares on the EGX.
Nevertheless, subject to the approval of EFSA and the general shareholders’ meeting of Emaar Misr, the
Ordinary Shares subject to the lock-up requirement may be transferred, wholly or partially, during such
period if (i) the purchaser is a bank, an insurance company, a direct investment fund, an entity specialised
in investment or a corporation with distinguished experience and track record in Emaar Misr’s field of
activity and (ii) the acquirer undertakes to abide by the lock-up requirement until the end of the two-year
period.

Other Relationships
The Managers are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include
securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management,
principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The Managers and their respective
affiliates have in the past performed commercial banking, investment banking and advisory services for
Emaar Misr and its affiliates from time to time for which they have received customary fees and
reimbursement of expenses and may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services
for Emaar Misr and its affiliates in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive
customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. In the ordinary course of their various business activities,
the Managers and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively
trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (which may
include bank loans and/or credit default swaps) for their own account and for the accounts of their
customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such
investment and securities activities may involve the Company’s securities and instruments. Emirates NBD
Bank PJSC is the lender under the EGP 100 million discounted cheques facility made available to the
Company. Emirates Financial Services PSC is an affiliate of Emirates NBD Bank PJSC. See ‘‘Operating
and Financial Review—Credit Facilities’’.
In connection with the Institutional Offering, each of the Managers and any of their affiliate acting as an
investor for its own account may take up Institutional Offering Shares and in that capacity may retain,
purchase or sell for its own account such Institutional Offering Shares and any related investments and
may offer or sell such Institutional Offering Shares or other investments otherwise than in connection with
the Institutional Offering. Accordingly, references in this Offering Memorandum to the Institutional
Offering Shares being offered or placed should be read as including any offering or placement of
Institutional Offering Shares to the Managers and any affiliate acting in such capacity. No Manager
intends to disclose the extent of any such investment or transactions otherwise than to the Company and/or
in accordance with any legal or regulatory obligation to do so. In addition, in connection with the
Institutional Offering, certain of the Managers may enter into financing arrangements with investors, such
as share swap arrangements or lending arrangements where Institutional Offering Shares are used as
collateral, that could result in such Manager acquiring shareholdings in the Company.
In connection with the Institutional Offering, the Managers are not acting for anyone other than the
Company and will not be responsible to anyone other than the Company for providing the protections
afforded to its clients nor for providing advice in relation to the Institutional Offering.

140
Selling Restrictions
General
No action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction that would permit a public offering of the
Institutional Offering Shares or the possession, circulation or distribution of this Offering Memorandum or
any other material relating to the Company, the Principal Shareholder or the Institutional Offering Shares
in any jurisdiction where action for such purpose is required. Accordingly, the Institutional Offering Shares
may not be offered or sold directly or indirectly, and neither this Offering Memorandum nor any other
offering material or advertisements in connection with the Institutional Offering Shares may be distributed
or published, in or from any country or jurisdiction except under circumstances that will result in
compliance with any applicable rules and regulations of any such country or jurisdiction.
The issue and distribution of this Offering Memorandum and the offering of the Institutional Offering
Shares may be subject to statutory restrictions in other jurisdictions. The Company, the Principal
Shareholder and the Managers request persons into whose possession this Offering Memorandum may
come to inform themselves of and to observe all such restrictions. Neither the Company, the Principal
Shareholder, the Managers accept any legal liability for any violation of any such restriction by any person,
whether or not a prospective purchaser of the Institutional Offering Shares.

United States
The Institutional Offering Shares have not been and will not be registered under the ‘‘Securities Act’’, or
with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States, and may not
be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not
subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in compliance with any applicable
securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. The Institutional Offering Shares will
be offered (i) outside the United States in ‘‘offshore transactions’’ in reliance on Regulation S under the
Securities Act to institutional investors in a number of countries, including Egypt and (ii) in the United
States only to QIBs as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, in reliance on Rule 144A or another
exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
Prospective purchasers that are qualified institutional investors are hereby notified that the sellers of
shares may be relying on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by
Rule 144A. The Institutional Offering Shares are subject to transfer restrictions in certain jurisdictions.
Prospective purchasers should read the restrictions described under ‘‘Transfer Restrictions’’.
Any offers and sales of the Institutional Offering Shares in the United States will be conducted by broker-
dealers registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. EFG Hermes is expected to make
offers and sales in the United States through its selling agent, Auerbach Grayson & Company, Inc., a US
registered broker-dealer.

European Economic Area


In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area, each of the Managers has represented
and agreed that with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented
in a Member State (the ‘‘Relevant Implementation Date’’) it has not made and will not make an offer of
any Institutional Offering Shares to the public in a Member State, except that it may, with effect from and
including the Relevant Implementation Date, make an offer of Institutional Offering Shares in a Member
State:
• to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive;

Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior
consent of the Managers nominated by the Company for any such offer; or
• in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive,
provided that no such offer of Institutional Offering Shares shall require the Company or any Joint Global
Coordinator to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a
prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.

141
Each person in a Member State who receives any communication in respect of, or who acquires any
Institutional Offering Shares will be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed to and with each
Joint Global Coordinator and the Company that:
(a) it is a qualified investor within the meaning of the law in a Member State implementing Article 2(1)(e)
of the Prospectus Directive; and
(b) in the case of any Institutional Offering Shares acquired by it as a financial intermediary, as that term
is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, (i) the Institutional Offering Shares acquired by it
have not been acquired on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale
to, persons in any Member State other than qualified investors, as that term is defined in the
Prospectus Directive, or in the circumstances in which the prior consent of the representatives of the
Managers has been given to the offer or resale or (ii) where Institutional Offering Shares have been
acquired by it on behalf of persons in any Member State other than qualified investors, the offer of
such shares to it is not treated under the Prospectus Directive as having been made to such persons.
For the purposes of the provisions and representations above, the expression ‘‘an offer to the public’’ in
relation to any shares in any Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of
sufficient information on the terms of the offer and any shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to
decide to purchase or subscribe for any Institutional Offering Shares, as the same may be varied in that
Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State, the
expression ‘‘Prospectus Directive’’ means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the
2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Member State), and includes any relevant
implementing measure in the Member State and the expression ‘‘2010 PD Amending Directive’’ means
Directive 2010/73/EU.

Shares. Any resale or other transfer, or attempted resale or other transfer, made other than in compliance

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Board of Directors of Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed statement of financial position of Emaar Misr for
Development S.A.E. as of 31 March 2015 and the related interim statements of profit or loss and other
comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and
explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim
condensed financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34). Our
responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed financial statements based on our
review.

Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review
of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim
financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in
scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and, consequently,
does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be
identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying
interim condensed financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with
IAS 34.
We have not audited or reviewed the financial information for the three month period ended 31 March
2014 and accordingly do not express an opinion thereon.

prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in
the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the company’s annual financial

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES


The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates
that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying
disclosures and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the reporting date. Uncertainty about these
assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying
amount of the assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Estimates and their underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised.
The presentation of the interim financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2015 includes the
significant judgments made by management in applying the company’s accounting policies and the key
sources of estimation uncertainty which were the same as those that applied to the 2014 financial
statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
EMAAR MISR FOR DEVELOPMENT COMPANY (S.A.E.)
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Emaar Misr for Development Company
(S.A.E) (the ‘‘Company’’), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014,
2013 and 2012, and the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes
in equity and statement of cash flows for the years then ended, and a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information.
This report is made solely to the company’s shareholders, as a body. Our audit work has been undertaken
so that we might state to the company’s shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in an
auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or
assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s shareholders as a body, for our
audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Management’s responsibility for the financial statements


Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as
management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted
our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply
with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.
In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s
internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company as at 31 December 2014, 2013 and 2012, and its financial performance and cash flows for the
years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Notes to the reclassifications and reconciliation between local GAAP and IFRS as at 1 January 2012
and 31 December 2014 and the year ended 31 December 2014.
A Property, plant and equipment
1—Under EAS, finance leased assets are not derecognised from the lessors financial statements; instead
they continue to be presented in property, plant and equipment. Under IFRS, such leased assets are
derecognised and the receivables due from lessee are recognised at the present value of the minimum lease
payments, accordingly the property, plant and equipment were reduced by the carrying amount of the
finance leased asset amounting to EGP 2,900,126 as of 1 January 2012 and the receivables due from lessee
were recognised in other receivables net of unearned interest revenues. No effect for 2014 since the
contract was closed in 2013.
2—Under EAS, Property under construction amounting to EGP 45,732,626 as of 31 December 2014 was
presented separately on the face of the statement of financial position. Under IFRS, this amount was
reclassified to property, plant and equipment at 31 December 2014. There was no such difference between
the EAS financial statements and IFRS financial statements as of 1 January 2012.
3—The company entered into a sale and finance lease back in 2013. Under EAS the asset was
derecognised and the loss from sale was amortised over the lease term and rent expense was charged to the
Profit or loss for rental payments. In 2014 the contract was cancelled and the company paid the PV of the
balance of the liability and reacquired the title, the asset was recorded in the balance sheet at the amount

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2.2 FIRST-TIME ADOPTION OF IFRS (Continued)


paid and the unamortised loss at date of cancelation was added back to the asset. Under IFRS the asset
was not derecognised and its carrying amount was not rebased. The Company did not recognize gain or
loss from this transaction. The substance of sale and leaseback transactions was clearly financing rather
than its form of leasing. The Company continued to recognize the asset at its existing carrying amount and
account for the asset as if the sale and leaseback transactions did not occur. The proceeds from sale
transaction were credited to obligation under finance lease account as interest bearing loans and
borrowings. The difference in the carrying amount of the asset between EAS and IFRS amounted to
EGP 8,821,677. In addition, since this transaction was accounted for as pure finance for IFRS purposes,
the interest related to this borrowing was capitalized on development properties amounting to
EGP 5,720,506, the total effect on accumulated losses is EGP 14,542,183.
4—Under EAS, development properties include property, plant and equipment under construction that
are intended to be used in the ordinary course of business. Under IFRS, these assets are reclassified to
property, plant and equipment (under construction) amounting to EGP 34,545,289 at 1 January 2012.
There was no such difference between the EAS financial statements and IFRS financial statements as of
31 December 2014.

B Accounts and notes receivables


Under EAS, the notes receivable related to undelivered units are netted against the related deferred
revenues (Advances from customers); however past due notes receivable and the corresponding deferred

of 1 January 2012 are netted against Advances from customers at 1 January 2012. There was no such
difference between the EAS financial statements and IFRS financial statements as of 31 December 2014.

C Provisions for employees’ end-of-service benefits


Under EAS, the Provision for employees’ end-of-service benefits amounting to EGP 5,104,824 as of

statements as of 31 December 2014.

position at 1 January 2012. There was no such difference between the EAS financial statements and IFRS
financial statements as of 31 December 2014.
2—Under EAS, bank overdrafts and facilities amounting to EGP 1,514,408,719 as of 1 January 2012 were
presented separately. Under IFRS, these amounts were reclassified to interest-bearing loans and
borrowings. There was no such difference between the EAS financial statements and IFRS financial
statements as of 31 December 2014.

E Trade and other payables


1—Under EAS, retentions payable amounting to EGP 158,906,275 as of 1 January 2012 was presented in
trade and other payables. Under IFRS, these amounts were presented separately on the face of the
statement of financial position at 1 January 2012. There was no such difference between the EAS financial

2.3 STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE


The standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the
company’s financial statements are disclosed below. The company intends to adopt these standards, if
applicable, when they become effective.

F-40
Emaar Misr for Development Company (S.A.E)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the years ended 31 December

2.3 STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE (Continued)


IFRS 9 Financial instruments
In July 2014, the IASB issued the final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments which reflects all phases of
the financial instruments project and replaces IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and
Measurement and all previous versions of IFRS 9. The standard introduces new requirements for
classification and measurement, impairment, and hedge accounting. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early application permitted. Retrospective application is
required, but comparative information is not compulsory. Early application of previous versions of IFRS 9
(2009, 2010 and 2013) is permitted if the date of initial application is before 1 February 2015. The
Company is not expecting that the adoption of IFRS 9 will result in a material impact.

IFRS 14 Regulatory deferral accounts


IFRS 14 is an optional standard that allows an entity, whose activities are subject to rate-regulation, to
continue applying most of its existing accounting policies for regulatory deferral account balances upon its
first-time adoption of IFRS. Entities that adopt IFRS 14 must present the regulatory deferral accounts as
separate line items on the statement of financial position and present movements in these account
balances as separate line items in the statement of profit or loss. The standard requires disclosures on the
nature of, and risks associated with, the entity’s rate-regulation and the effects of that rate-regulation on its
financial statements. IFRS 14 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016.

Amendments to IAS 19 Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions


IAS 19 requires an entity to consider contributions from employees or third parties when accounting for
defined benefit plans. Where the contributions are linked to service, they should be attributed to periods of
service as a negative benefit. These amendments clarify that, if the amount of the contributions is
independent of the number of years of service, an entity is permitted to recognize such contributions as a
reduction in the service cost in the period in which the service is rendered, instead of allocating the
contributions to the periods of service. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or
after 1 July 2014. It is not expected that this amendment would be relevant to the company, since the
company has no defined benefit plans with contributions from employees or third parties.

Annual improvements 2010-2012 cycle


These improvements are effective from 1 July 2014 and are not expected to have a material impact on the
Company. They include:

IFRS 2 Share-based payment


This improvement is applied prospectively and clarifies various issues relating to the definitions of
performance and service conditions which are vesting. These amendments will not have any impact on the
Company’s financial statements.

IFRS 3 Business combinations


The amendment is applied prospectively and clarifies that all contingent consideration arrangements
classified as liabilities (or assets) arising from a business combination should be subsequently measured at
fair value through profit or loss whether or not they fall within the scope of IFRS 9 (or IAS 39, as
applicable). These amendments will not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.

IFRS 8 Operating segments


The amendments are applied retrospectively and clarifies that:
• An entity must disclose the judgments made by management in applying the aggregation criteria in
paragraph 12 of IFRS 8, including a brief description of operating segments that have been

F-41
Emaar Misr for Development Company (S.A.E)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2.3 STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE (Continued)


aggregated and the economic characteristics (e.g., sales and gross margins) used to assess whether the
segments are ‘similar’
• The reconciliation of segment assets to total assets is only required to be disclosed if the reconciliation
is reported to the chief operating decision maker, similar to the required disclosure for segment
liabilities.

IAS 16 Property, plant and equipment and IAS 38 intangible assets


The amendment is applied retrospectively and clarifies in IAS 16 and IAS 38 that the asset may be
revalued by reference to observable data on either the gross or the net carrying amount. In addition, the
accumulated depreciation or amortisation is the difference between the gross and carrying amounts of the
asset. These amendments will not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.

IAS 24 Related party disclosures


The amendment is applied retrospectively and clarifies that a management entity (an entity that provides
key management personnel services) is a related party subject to the related party disclosures. In addition,
an entity that uses a management entity is required to disclose the expenses incurred for management
services.

Annual improvements 2011-2013 cycle


These improvements are effective from 1 July 2014 and are not expected to have a material impact on the
Company. They include:

IFRS 3 Business combinations


The amendment is applied prospectively and clarifies for the scope exceptions within IFRS 3 that:
• Joint arrangements, not just joint ventures, are outside the scope of IFRS 3
• This scope exception applies only to the accounting in the financial statements of the joint
arrangement itself

IFRS 13 Fair value measurement


The amendment is applied prospectively and clarifies that the portfolio exception in IFRS 13 can be
applied not only to financial assets and financial liabilities, but also to other contracts within the scope of
IFRS 9 (or IAS 39, as applicable).

IAS 40 Investment properties


The description of ancillary services in IAS 40 differentiates between investment property and owner-
occupied property (i.e., property, plant and equipment). The amendment is applied prospectively and
clarifies that IFRS 3, and not the description of ancillary services in IAS 40, is used to determine if the
transaction is the purchase of an asset or business combination.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with customers


IFRS 15 was issued in May 2014 and establishes a new five-step model that will apply to revenue arising
from Contracts with customers. Under IFRS 15 revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the
consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a
customer. The principles in IFRS 15 provide a more structured approach to measuring and recognising
revenue. The new revenue standard is applicable to all entities and will supersede all current revenue
recognition requirements under IFRS. Either a full or modified retrospective application is required for

2.3 STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE (Continued)


annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 with early adoption permitted. The company is
currently assessing the impact of IFRS 15.

Amendments to IFRS 11 Joint arrangements: Accounting for acquisitions of interests


The amendments to IFRS 11 require that a joint operator accounting for the acquisition of an interest in a
joint operation, in which the activity of the joint operation constitutes a business must apply the relevant
IFRS 3 principles for business combinations accounting. The amendments also clarify that a previously
held interest in a joint operation is not remeasured on the acquisition of an additional interest in the same
joint operation while joint control is retained. In addition, a scope exclusion has been added to IFRS 11 to
specify that the amendments do not apply when the parties sharing joint control, including the reporting
entity, are under common control of the same ultimate controlling party. The amendments apply to both
the acquisition of the initial interest in a joint operation and the acquisition of any additional interests in
the same joint operation and are prospectively effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2016, with early adoption permitted. These amendments will not have any impact on the Company’s
financial statements

Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38: Clarification of acceptable methods of depreciation and amortisation
The amendments clarify the principle in IAS 16 and IAS 38 that revenue reflects a pattern of economic
benefits generated from operating a business (of which the asset is part) rather than the economic benefits
that are consumed through use of the asset. As a result, a revenue-based method cannot be used to
depreciate property, plant and equipment and may only be used in very limited circumstances to amortise
intangible assets. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after
1 January 2016, with early adoption permitted. These amendments will not have any impact on the
Company’s financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 41 Agriculture: Bearer plants


The amendments change the accounting requirements for biological assets that meet the definition of
bearer plants. Under the amendments, biological assets that meet the definition of bearer plants will no
longer be within the scope of IAS 41. Instead, IAS 16 will apply. After initial recognition, bearer plants will
be measured under IAS 16 at accumulated cost (before maturity) and using either the cost model or
revaluation model (after maturity). The amendments also require that produce that grows on bearer plants
will remain in the scope of IAS 41 measured at fair value less costs to sell. For government grants related
to bearer plants, IAS 20 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance will
apply. The amendments are retrospectively effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2016, with early adoption permitted. These amendments will not have any impact on the Company’s
financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 27: Equity method in separate financial statements


The amendments will allow entities to use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries,
joint ventures and associates in their separate financial statements. Entities already applying IFRS and
electing to change to the equity method in its separate financial statements will have to apply that change
retrospectively. For first-time adopters of IFRS electing to use the equity method in its separate financial
statements, they will be required to apply this method from the date of transition to IFRS. The
amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, with early adoption
permitted. These amendments will not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.

2.4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES


The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates that
affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures

and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the reporting date. Uncertainty about these assumptions and
estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the assets
or liabilities affected in future periods.
Estimates and their underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised.
The key judgements and estimates that have a significant impact on the financial statement of the
Company are discussed below:

Judgments
Revenue recognition for real estate units
In making their judgment, the management considered the detailed criteria for the recognition of revenue
from the sale of real estate units as set out in IAS 18 Revenue, IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of
Real Estate and, in particular, whether the Company had transferred to the buyer the significant risks and
rewards of ownership of the real estate units.

Classification of properties
The Company determines whether a property is classified as investment property or development
property:
Investment property comprises land and buildings that are not occupied substantially for use by, or in the
operations of, the Company, nor for sale in the ordinary course of business, but are held primarily to earn
rental income and capital appreciation. These land and buildings are substantially rented to tenants and
not intended to be sold in the ordinary course of business.
Development property comprises property that is held for sale in the ordinary course of business.
Principally, this is residential property that the Company develops and intends to sell before or on
completion of construction.

Operating lease commitments—Company as lessor


The Company has entered into leases on its investment properties. The Company has determined, based
on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, such as the lease term not constituting a
major part of the economic life of the property and the fair value of the asset, that it retains all the
significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties and accounts for the contracts as operating
leases.

Estimations
Estimation of net realisable value for development property
Development property is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value (NRV).
NRV for completed property is assessed by reference to market conditions and prices existing at the
reporting date and is determined by the Company, based on comparable transactions.
NRV in respect of development property under construction is assessed with reference to market prices at
the reporting date for similar completed property, less estimated costs to complete construction.

Valuation of investment properties


The Company hires the services of third party professionally qualified valuers to obtain estimates of the
market value of investment properties using recognised valuation techniques for the purposes of their
impairment review and disclosures in the financial statements.

2.4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES (Continued)


Impairment of trade and other receivables
An estimate of the collectible amount of trade and other receivables is made when collection of the full
amount is no longer probable. For individually significant amounts, this estimation is performed on an
individual basis. Amounts which are not individually significant, but which are past due, are assessed
collectively and a provision applied according to the length of time past due, based on historical recovery
rates.

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment and investment properties


The Company’s management determines the estimated useful lives of its property, plant and equipment
and investment properties for calculating depreciation. This estimate is determined after considering the
expected usage of the asset or physical wear and tear. The management periodically reviews estimated
useful lives and the depreciation method to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are
consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets.

Cost to complete the projects


The Company estimates the cost to complete the projects in order to determine the cost attributable to
revenue being recognised. These estimates include the cost of providing infrastructure, potential claims by
contractors as evaluated by the project consultant and the cost of meeting other contractual obligations to
the customers.

Taxes
The Company is subject to income taxes in Egypt. Significant judgment is required to determine the total
provision for current and deferred taxes. The Company established provisions, based on reasonable
estimates, for possible consequences of audits by the tax authorities in Egypt. The amount of such
provision is based on various factors, such as experience of previous tax audits and differing interpretations
of tax regulations by the Company and the responsible tax authority. Such differences of interpretations
may arise on a wide variety of issues depending on the conditions prevailing in Egypt.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused accumulated tax losses to the extent that it is probable that
taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement
is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely
timing and the level of future taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies.

Impairment of non-financial assets


The Company assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for all non-financial assets at each
reporting date. The non-financial assets are tested for impairment when there are indicators that the
carrying amounts may not be recoverable. When value in use calculations are undertaken, management
estimates the expected future cash flows from the asset or cash-generating unit and chooses a suitable
discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.

2.5 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company
and the revenue can be reliably measured, regardless of when the payment is being made. Revenue is
measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, taking into account contractually
defined terms of payment and excluding taxes or duty. The Company has concluded that it is the principal
in all of its revenue arrangements since it is the primary obligor in most of the revenue arrangements, it has
pricing latitude and is also exposed to inventory and credit risks.

2.5 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


The specific recognition criteria described below must also be met before revenue is recognised.

Sale of completed property


A property is regarded as sold when the significant risks and returns have been transferred to the buyer,
which is normally on unconditional exchange of contracts. For conditional exchanges, sales are recognised
only when all the significant conditions are satisfied.

Sales of property under development


Where property is under development and agreement has been reached to sell such property when
construction is complete, the management considers whether the contract comprises:
• A contract to construct a property
Or
• A contract for the sale of a completed property
Where a contract is judged to be for the construction of a property, revenue is recognised using the
percentage-of-completion method as construction progresses.
Where the contract is judged to be for the sale of a completed property, revenue is recognised when the
significant risks and rewards of ownership of the real estate have been transferred to the buyer. If,
however, the legal terms of the contract are such that the construction represents the continuous transfer
of work in progress to the purchaser, the percentage-of-completion method of revenue recognition is
applied and revenue is recognised as work progresses. Continuous transfer of work in progress is applied
when:
• The buyer controls the work in progress, typically when the land on which the development takes
place is owned by the final customer
• All significant risks and rewards of ownership of the work in progress in its present state are
transferred to the buyer as construction progresses, typically, when buyer cannot put the incomplete
property back to the Company
In such situations, the percentage of work completed is measured based on the costs incurred up until the
end of the reporting period as a proportion of total costs expected to be incurred.

Rental income from lease of investment properties


Rental income arising from operating leases on investment property is accounted for on a straight-line
basis over the lease terms and is included in other income in the Statement of Profit or Loss.

Hospitality revenue
Revenue from hotel accommodation, food and beverages and other related services are recognised, net of
discount and municipality fees, at the point at which the services are rendered.

Finance income
Finance income is recognised as it accrues using the effective interest rate (EIR) method. EIR is the rate
that exactly discounts the estimated future cash payments or receipts over the expected life of the financial
instrument or a shorter period, where appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or
liability.

2.5 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


Customers charges
Income arising from providing utilities (water and electricity) to customers is recognised when rendered.
Customer charges revenues is included in other income in the Statement of Profit or Loss.

Foreign currencies
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded using the exchange rate at the date of the
transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at
the reporting date. All differences are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss.
Nonmonetary items that are measured at historical cost in foreign currency are translated using the
exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
Nonmonetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at
the date when the fair value is determined.

Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that
necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part
of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.
Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of
funds.

Income tax
Income tax is calculated in accordance with the Egyptian tax law.

Current income tax


Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior years are measured at the amount
expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authority.

Deferred income tax


Deferred income tax is recognised using the liability method on temporary differences between the amount
attributed to an asset or liability for tax purposes (tax base) and its carrying amount in the balance sheet
(accounting base).
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when
the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax asset is recognised when it is probable that the asset can be utilized to reduce future taxable
profits and the asset is reduced by the portion that will not create future benefit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the
deferred tax asset to be utilised.
Current and deferred tax shall be recognised as income or an expense and included in the statement of
profit or loss for the period, except to the extent that the tax arises from a transaction or event which is
recognised, in the same or a different period, directly in equity.

No depreciation is charged on land and capital work-in-progress. The useful lives and depreciation method
are reviewed periodically to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the
expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets.
Expenditure incurred to replace a component of an item of property, plant and equipment that is
accounted for separately is capitalised and the carrying amount of the component that is replaced is
written off. Other subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases future economic benefits of
the related item of property, plant and equipment. All other expenditure is recognised in the Statement of
Profit or Loss as the expense is incurred.
Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment may not be recoverable. Whenever the
carrying amount of property, plant and equipment exceeds their recoverable amount, an impairment loss is
recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs
to sell of property, plant and equipment and the value in use. The fair value is the price that would be
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. While value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows expected to
arise from the continuing use of property, plant and equipment and from its disposal at the end of its
useful life.
Reversal of impairment losses recognised in the prior years are recorded when there is an indication that
the impairment losses recognised for the property, plant and equipment no longer exist or have reduced.

Investment properties
Properties held for rental or capital appreciation purposes are classified as investment properties.
Investment properties are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated
impairment in value.
Investment properties represents lands and buildings. Buildings are depreciated on a straight-line basis
over their estimated useful lives (20 years). No depreciation is charged on land and capital
work-in-progress.
The useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed periodically to ensure that the method and period
of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets.
Transfers are made to investment properties when and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by
the end of owner occupation or commencement of an operating lease. Transfers are made from investment
properties when and only when, there is a change in use evidenced by commencement of owner occupation

or commencement of development with a view to sell. Such transfers are made at the carrying value of the
properties at the date of transfer.
The Company determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the
investment properties are impaired. Whenever the carrying amount of an investment property exceeds
their recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss. The
recoverable amount is the higher of investment property’s fair value less costs to sell and the value in use.
The fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. While value in use is the present value
of estimated future cash flows expected to arise from the continuing use of the investment property and
from its disposal at the end of its useful life.
Reversal of impairment losses recognised in the prior years is recorded when there is an indication that the
impairment losses recognised for the investment property no longer exist or have reduced.

Development properties
Properties acquired, constructed or being constructed for sale in the ordinary course of business are held
as development properties and are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value (NRV).
Cost includes:
• Cost of land;
• Amounts paid to contractors for construction;
• Borrowing costs, planning and design costs, costs of site preparation, professional fees for legal
services, property transfer taxes, construction overheads and other related costs.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of the business, based on market
prices at the reporting date and discounted for the time value of money if material, less costs to complete
and the estimated costs of sale.
The cost of development properties recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss on sale is determined
with reference to the specific costs incurred on the property sold and an allocation of any non-specific costs
based on the relative size of the property sold.
The management reviews the carrying values of the development properties on an annual basis.

Financial assets
Financial assets are initially measured at cost, plus transaction costs. All recognised financial assets are
subsequently measured at amortised cost

Cash and short-term deposits


Cash and short-term deposits in the statement of financial position comprise cash at banks and on hand
and short-term deposits with original maturity of three months or less.

Accounts and notes receivables


After initial measurement, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate (EIR) method, less impairment (if any). The losses arising from impairment (if any)
are recognised in the statement of profit or loss in other operating expenses.

2.5 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


Derecognition of financial assets
A financial asset (or, when applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial
assets) is derecognised when:
• The rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired, or
• The Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an
obligation to pay the received cash flow in full without material delay to a third party under a
‘pass-through’ arrangement, and either:
• The Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or
• The Company has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of
the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.
When the Company has transferred its right to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a
pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if and to what extent it as retained the risks and rewards of
ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset
nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent
of the Company’s continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated
liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights
and obligations that the Company has retained.
Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the
lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the
Company could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets


The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset
or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be
impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has
occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) and that loss event has an
impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be
reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors
is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the
probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation and where observable data
indicates that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears
or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.
If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is
measured as the difference between the financial assets carrying amount and the present value of
estimated future cash flows. The present value of the estimated future cash flows is discounted at the
financial assets original effective interest rate.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an
allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss. Financial
asset together with the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future
recovery and all collateral has been realised or has been transferred to the Company. If, in a subsequent
year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring
after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is increased or decreased
by adjusting the allowance account. If a future write-off is later recovered, the recovery is recognised in the
Statement of Profit or Loss.

2.5 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the company
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity instruments in
accordance with the substance of the contractual agreements. Financial liabilities within the scope of
IAS 39 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, or as
derivative instrument as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities
at the initial recognition.

Trade and other payables


Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether
billed by the supplier or not.

Loans and borrowings


All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value less directly attributable transaction costs.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised
cost using the effective interest rate method. Gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit or
Loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the amortisation process.

Other financial liabilities


Other financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and are subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognised on an
effective yield basis.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of
allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly
discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where
appropriate, a shorter period.

Derecognition of financial liabilities


The Company derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are
discharged, cancelled or they expire. Where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the
same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified,
then the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss.

Offsetting of financial instruments


Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of
financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there
is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Impairment of non-financial assets


The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that a non-financial asset may
be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the
Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an
asset’s or cash-generating units (CGU) fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for
an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those
from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its
recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In
assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax

F-51

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2.5 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to
the asset. In determining fair value less costs to sell, an appropriate valuation model is used.
Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss in those
expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.
An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously
recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the
Company estimates the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount. A previously recognised
impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the
asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that
the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount
that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the
asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss.

Leases
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains a lease is based on the substance of the
arrangement at inception date and whether the fulfilment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a
specific asset or assets or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.

Company as a lessee
Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor, are
classified as operating leases. Payments, including prepayments, made under operating leases (net of any
incentives received from the lessor) are recognised as expenses in the Statement of Profit or Loss in
accordance with the terms of the lease contracts over the lease term based on a straight line basis.

Company as a lessor
The Company has entered into leases on its investment properties. The Company has determined, based
on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, that it retains all the significant risks and
rewards of ownership of these properties and accounts for the contracts as operating leases. Lease income
is recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss over the lease term on a straight line basis.

End-of-service benefits
The Company provides end-of-service benefits to its employees. The entitlement to these benefits is
usually based upon the employees’ final salary and length of service, subject to the completion of a
minimum service period. The costs of these benefits are accrued over the period of employment.

Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past
event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle
the obligation, and the amount can be reliably estimated. When the Company expects some or all of a
provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset but only when the
reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the Statement of
Profit or Loss net of any reimbursement.
Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the
obligation at the end of the reporting period, using a rate that reflects current market assessments of the
time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation.

F-52
Emaar Misr for Development Company (S.A.E)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the years ended 31 December

2.5 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


Provisions are reviewed at each statement of financial position date and adjusted to reflect the current best
estimate. If it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be
required to settle the obligation, the provision is reversed.

Contingencies
Contingent liabilities are not recognised in the financial statements. They are disclosed unless the
possibility of an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is remote. A contingent asset is not
recognised in the financial statements but disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

Fair value measurement


Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on
the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the
principal market for the asset or liability or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would
use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to
generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market
participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.
For assets traded in an active market, fair value is determined by reference to quoted market bid prices.
The fair value of interest-bearing items is estimated based on discounted cash flows using interest rates for
items with similar terms and risk characteristics.
For unquoted assets, fair value is determined by reference to the market value of a similar asset or is based
on the expected discounted cash flows.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient
data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising
the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are
categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
• Level 1—Fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices in an active market (that are
unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2—Fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included
within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly
(i.e. derived from prices).
• Level 3—Fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for
the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company
determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorisation
at the end of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on
the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value
hierarchy as explained above.

20 INTEREST-BEARING LOANS AND BORROWINGS (Continued)


2013
During June 2013 the company signed a financing agreement in the form of sale and finance lease back
agreement for uptown Cairo golf club building with a Leasing Company. According to the agreement the
company sold a building with a carrying amount of EGP 73,254,850 for EGP 44,785,000. The Company did
not recognize gain or loss from this transaction.
Although this agreement is in the form of a sale and leaseback transaction, it is in substance a financing
transaction. Accordingly, the company continued to recognise the asset at its existing carrying amount and
to account for the asset as if the sale and leaseback transactions did not occur. The proceeds from sale
transaction are credited to obligation under finance lease account as interest bearing loans and borrowings.
This treatment reflects the fact that the sale and leaseback transaction has not resulted in a significant
change to the seller’s interest in the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. Consequently, there is
unlikely to be any change to the asset’s useful life or residual value so far as the seller is concerned.
For sales lease back, the total obligation of Emaar Misr amounting to EGP 57,045,900 to be settled as
follows:
• An advance payment amounting to EGP 8,830,000, will be settled with the Leasing Company at the
end of the lease period against the asset’s salvage value.
• A rental value amounting to EGP 48,215,900 to be paid over 20 quarterly instalments each amounting
to EGP 2,410,795 till March 2018.
The company paid total amount of EGP 7,232,385 during 2013 (principal amounted to EGP 5,041,425 and
interest EGP 2,190,261) and the outstanding balance at 31 December 2013 amounted to EGP 30,913,575.

During 2014 the company settled total outstanding obligation of finance lease amounting to EGP
30,913,575.

28 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES


Overview
The Company has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:
a) Credit risk,
b) Market risk, and
c) Liquidity risk.
This note presents information about the Company’s exposure to each of the above risks, the Company’s
objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Company’s management of
capital.
The Board of Directors of the Parent Company has overall responsibility for the establishment and
oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s senior management are

F-74

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
For the years ended 31 December

28 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)


responsible for developing and monitoring the risk management policies and report regularly to the Parent
Company on their activities.
The Company’s current financial risk management framework is a combination of formally documented
risk management policies in certain areas and informal risk management policies in other areas.

28 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)


a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial
instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk principally from
its receivables from customers, due from related parties, other receivables and from its financing activities,
including deposits with banks and financial institutions.

Trade and notes receivables


The Company has entered into contracts for the sale of residential and commercial units on an instalment
basis. The instalments are specified in the contracts. The Company is exposed to credit risk in respect of
instalments due. However, the legal ownership of residential and commercial units is transferred to the
buyer only after all the instalments are recovered. In addition, instalment dues are monitored on an
ongoing basis with the result that the Company’s exposure to bad debts is not significant.
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each
customer. The demographics of the Company’s customer base, including the default risk of the industry
and country, in which customers operate, has less influence on credit risk. The Company earns its revenues
from a large number of customers.

Other financial assets and cash deposits


With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Company, which comprise bank
balances and cash, financial assets at amortised cost, the Company’s exposure to credit risk arises from
default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these assets.
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by local Company’s treasury
supported by the Parent Company. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by only placing balances
with international banks and local banks of good repute. Given the profile of its bankers, management
does not expect any counterparty to fail to meet its obligations.

Due from related parties


Due from related parties relates to transactions arising in the normal course of business with minimal
credit risk, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these balances.

b) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market prices, such as currency risk and interest rate risk, which will affect the
Company’s income. Financial instruments affected by market risk include interest-bearing loans and
borrowings, and deposits. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk
exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. The Company does not hold or issue
derivative financial instruments.

Exposure to interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate
because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market

interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s obligations with floating interest rates and interst bearing
time deposits.
Interest on financial instruments having floating rates is re-priced at intervals of less than one year.
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates with all
other variables held constant, of the Company’s profit before tax (through the impact on floating rate
borrowings).
There is no impact on the Company’s equity other than the profit impact stated below.

c) Liquidity risk
The cash flows, funding requirements and liquidity of the Company are monitored by local company
management supported by the Parent Company. The Company’s objective is to maintain a balance
between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of bank borrowings. The Company manages
liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves and borrowing facilities, by continuously monitoring
forecasted and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
The Company currently has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses, including
the servicing of financial obligations.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of the Company’s financial liabilities based on contractual
undiscounted payments.

3 Valuation Summary
In formulating our opinion of Market Value for Uptown Cairo, Mivida and Marassi, DTZ has employed the
investment method of valuation, specifically utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Using this method
we have produced a series of cash flows detailing the projected income and expenditure of the schemes.
For the income producing assets we have capitalized the net revenue of the assets at the end of the cash
flow using an exit yield in order to provide an exit value. The sum of the net revenue and the exit value
(where applicable) for each of the asset classes is then discounted to provide our opinion of Market Value.

The inputs for the cash flow model have predominately been derived using recent comparable transactions
on arms length terms.

Our opinion of Market Value for Cairo Gate has been derived using the direct comparison method of
valuation. This approach involves the analysis of transactions relating to direct comparables, where
available and where direct comparables are not available we have had consideration to properties in
locations further afield, making appropriate allowances for configuration, location, permitted use, size, etc.

In formulating our opinion of Market Value, DTZ has employed the investment method of valuation,
specifically utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Using this method we have produced a cash flow
detailing the projected income and expenditure of the scheme. For the income producing assets we have
capitalized the net revenue of the said asset at the end of the cash flow using an appropriate exit yield in
order to provide an exit value. The sum of the net revenue and the exit value (where applicable) for each
of the asset classes is then discounted to provide our opinion of Market Value. For the spa element, we
have utilized the comparable method of valuation, applying a market facing sales rate to the net land area.

Timing
The timing for development of the scheme including construction completion dates, hand over dates, and
occupation dates has been provided by the client. In our opinion the timing seems reasonable for a

The future revenue stream for the residential accommodation has been provided by the Client. With
regards to timing, future sales for each of the residential parcels is in line with the Client’s proposed
development plans which we consider to be reasonable. The future sales revenue for each of the parcels
has been projected in line with the historic sales on site and also having regard to how sales revenues have
grown year on year since the development was launched. We have been provided with the historic sales
data and consider the future revenue expectations to be reasonable.

The following annual price escalations have been adopted in our projections:

Year 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024
Price per sq m 13% 15% 17% 17% 18% 18% 18% 18% 18% 18%

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers which is either over four years until
delivery or over an extended payment schedule that continues after delivery (requiring 70.00% – 80.00%
payment prior to delivery and remainder over 1 – 3 years). The extended price is at a 12.00% premium in
comparison to the four year payment plan price.

Retail
For the retail accommodation, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other schemes across
the Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of valuation. Rental
values have been applied as follows across the various different store types:

Accommodation Type Market Rent at the date of valuation GLA


(EGP per sq m) (sq m)
Hyper Market 2,090 6,000
Major 2,660 5,500
Mini Major 3,990 18,000
Flagship 5,055 10,000
Line Shop 7,220 68,644
USP 1,570 6,000
FEC 1,570 6,000
Cinema 1,570 6,000
F&B 7,220 27,360
Food Court 10,000 3,000
Total 156,504

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the
accommodation becomes leased in 2021. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under
the terms of a hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under the
assumption that rental contracts will be in local currency.

UTC Clubhouse is already operational and has been income generating for a number of years. Predicted
revenue for 2015 is EGP 8,250,000 which we have grown at 10.00% per annum.

Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Date of Report: 28 April 2015

Various occupancy rates have been applied depending upon the nature of the store and the amount of
accommodation available as follows:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Stabilised


Accommodation Type 2021 2022 2023 Occupancy Rate
(%) (%) (%) (%)
Hyper Market 100 100 100 100

Cinema 100 100 100 100
F&B 75 85 90 90
Food Court 100 100 100 100

Additional income is generated through speciality leasing, sponsorship, turnover rent and outdoor food and
beverage. These are included in the cash flow as follows:

Income Stream % Revenue Stream


Speciality Leasing 5.00 Of Gross Revenue
Sponsorship 3.00 Of Gross Revenue
Turnover Rent 10.00 Of Gross Revenue
Outdoor Food and Beverage 25.00 Of Total Food and Beverage Revenue

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made a 15.00% allowance, based upon the gross
rent, for operational expenditure, a 5.00% allowance based upon the net rent, for management fees and a
3.00% allowance, based upon the gross rent, for sales and marketing expenditure, to give the net income
for the retail accommodation. We consider allowances at these levels to be reasonable for a retail scheme
of this nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the retail element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 10.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of
valuation which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of
the building at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Our exit date has been determined having regard to the date at which the majority of the retail
accommodation becomes available to lease which is in 2021. We consider that the majority of major
occupiers / international brands will look to sign a ten year contract which would expire in 2031. On expiry
of the initial lease, we would expect the occupiers to renew, dependant on the successfulness of the
scheme, which would mean that a sale in 2032 would be attractive to potential purchasers looking to
benefit from a product offering a long unexpired term.

Offices
The proposed office accommodation within Uptown Cairo totals some 83,102 sq m of which 70.00% is
going to be made available to lease and 30.00% available for purchase.

For the office accommodation available to lease, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other
schemes across the Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of
valuation. Rental values have been applied as follows:

Market Rent at the date of valuation


Accommodation Type
(EGP per sq m)
Offices 2,850

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the
accommodation becomes leased. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the
terms of a hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under the
assumption that rental contracts will be in local currency.

Occupancy rates have been applied as follows:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Stabilised


Accommodation Type 2021 2022 2023 Occupancy Rate
(%) (%) (%) (%)
Offices 75.00 85.00 95.00 95.00

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made an allowance for operational expenditure at
EGP 105 per sq m, increasing at 3.00% per annum, for management fees at 5.00% per annum, based upon
the net rent, for G&A expenditure at 1.50% per annum, based upon the net rent, and for sales and
marketing expenditure, at 2.50% per annum, based upon the gross rent, to give the net income for the
office rental accommodation. We consider allowances at this level to be reasonable for an office scheme of
this nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the office element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 10.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of
valuation which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of
the building at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

For the office accommodation available to purchase, we have applied a current sales rate of EGP 33,000 per
sq m which we have grown at 3.00% per annum. The current sales rate applied is in line with other current
recent transactions which we are aware of. We have anticipated that office sales will occur evenly over a
two year period, with sales of 12,465 sq m in both 2017 and 2018.

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers, which is over three years.

Hotels
Considering the two proposed hotels, firstly we estimated the future revenue stream based upon the
number of rooms, the average daily rate (ADR) and the occupancy rate.

In terms of the ADR, we have had consideration of the rates achieved by similar hotels in the area. Given
the proposed quality and 5*+ rating of ‘Hotel 1” we have applied an ADR of EGP 2,285. ‘Hotel 2’ is a 5*
hotel and so we have made a 20.00% adjustment and applied an ADR of 1,828.

Hotel 1 is anticipated to have an initial occupancy rate of 45.00% in year one (2021), which we have then
grown to reach a stabilized occupancy rate of 63.00% in Year 7 (2027). Hotel 2 is anticipated to have an
initial occupancy rate of 50.00% in year one (2024), which we have then grown to reach a stabilized
occupancy rate of 66.00% in Year 7 (2030).

In terms of non-room revenues we have included food and beverage revenue at 60.00% of room revenue
and other revenue (conference rooms, spa, banquet hall, etc) has been included at 3.00% of room revenue.
We set out below each revenue stream throughout the cash flow period as a percentage of total revenue:

Year 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032
Room Revenue 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60%
F&B Revenue 37% 37% 37% 37% 37% 37% 37% 37% 37% 37% 37% 37%
Other Revenue 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3%

Operating expenses including administration, payroll, energy and water were deducted at 51.00% of gross
revenue; FF&E reserve payments were deducted at 1.00% of gross revenue in Year 1, 2.00% in Year 2,
3.00% in Year 3 and 4.00% in Year 4 and thereafter; and management fees of 2.50% of gross revenue were
then deducted to give a Net Operating Profit (NOP).

The NOP was then capitalized using an EBITDA multiple of 10 for both hotels which we consider to be
market facing.

Spa Hotel
The land parcel which has been allocated for the Spa Hotel is to be sold as a land plot and we have applied
sales rate to the net land area as follows:

Land Use Sales Rate Gross Land Area Net Land Area

We are advised that the Company has a preliminary agreement with the American International School
(AIS) to operate the school property under a revenue share agreement. The terms involve a fixed contract
with a minimum guaranteed payment plus a percentage revenue share, should revenue targets be
achieved. We have utilized the income and subsequent revenue share projections provided by the
Company, which we consider to be reasonable for such a development. Revenue is anticipated to begin in
2018 as follows:

Year 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025


Revenue 4,560,000 5,173,322 7,581,207 10,113,383 13,261,138 18,393,213 22,005,441 25,123,613

In determining the exit value for the school element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 10.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of
valuation which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of
the building at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Construction Costs
Construction costs for the scheme and the timing thereof have been provided by the Client. We would
comment that the average build rates for the various asset classes appear to be reasonable; however, we
are not qualified cost consultants. If further clarification surrounding the costs applied is required then we
recommend appointing specialist cost consultant. We have been advised that construction costs are
inclusive of a 5.00% contingency and an 8.00% annual escalation that is embedded in the cost.

Outstanding construction costs for each element of the scheme are as follows:

Use Remaining Construction Costs


Residential 21,564,924,509
Retail 4,458,071,574
Offices 1,728,425,748
Hospitality 1,519,026,493
Total 29,270,448,323

Taxation
We have made an adjustment to reflect the liability of Income Tax payable on the income generated
through the developments operations, alongside Capital Gains Tax payable upon a future sale. These taxes
are levied by the Egyptian authorities at a rate of 22.50%.

Finance Costs
Our opinion of Market Value is stated gross of finance costs. Development schemes of this magnitude tend
to be predominately funded by pre-sales. Furthermore any additional finance costs will be specific to a
purchaser dependant on their financial position at the date of purchase and the relationship they have with
lending institutions.

Analysis
The net cash flow has then been discounted annually to give a Net Present Value (NPV) or Market Value for
the scheme.

The discount rate applied has been calculated as follows:

Type of Risk Rate


Risk Free Rate 2.17 (10 yr US Treasury Bond as at 31 December 2014)
Country Risk 11.25% (as per Damadorian Online)
Market Risk 1.00%
Specific Risk 1.50%
Total 15.92%

In our opinion a discount rate of 16.00% is reasonable for a property of this nature and is in line with the
return that investors in the Egyptian property market would require. On this basis we consider the Market
Value of the subject property to be in the region of EGP 6,897,632,177 which we have rounded to EGP
6,897,630,000.

We include extracts from our cash flow as Appendix 1.4.

3.2 VALUATION METHODOLOGY – MIVIDA


In formulating our opinion of Market Value, DTZ has employed the investment method of valuation,
specifically utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Using this method we have produced a cash flow
detailing the projected income and expenditure of the scheme. For the income producing assets we have
capitalized the net revenue of the said asset at the end of the cash flow using an appropriate exit yield in
order to provide an exit value. The sum of the net revenue and the exit value (where applicable) for each
of the asset classes is then discounted to provide our opinion of Market Value. For the hospitality, medical
centre and school elements, we have utilized the comparable method of valuation, applying a market
facing sales rates to the net land areas.

Timing
The timing for development of the scheme including construction completion dates, hand over dates, and
occupation dates has been provided by the client. In our opinion the timing seems reasonable for a
development of this scale. Please refer to Appendix 2.4 for the planned development timeline.

Determination of Revenue

The future revenue stream for the residential accommodation has been provided by the Client. With
regards to timing, future sales for each of the residential parcels is in line with the Client’s proposed
development plans which we consider to be reasonable. The future sales revenue for each of the parcels
has been projected in line with the historic sales on site and also having regard to how sales revenues have
grown year on year since the development was launched. We have been provided with the historic sales
data and consider the future revenue expectations to be reasonable.

The following annual price escalations have been adopted in our projections:

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers which is either over four years until
delivery or over an extended payment schedule that continues after delivery (requiring 70.00% – 80.00%
payment prior to delivery and remainder over 1 – 3 years). The extended price is at a 12.00% premium in
comparison to the initial purchase price.

Retail
For the retail accommodation, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other schemes across
the Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of valuation. Rental
values have been applied as follows across the various different store types:

Market Rent at the date of valuation GLA


Accommodation Type
(EGP per sq m) (sq m)
Hyper Market 1,965 6,000
Mini Major 3,755 8,859
Flagship 4,825 3,000

Food Court / Speciality Shops 10,000 1,200
Lake Retail 4,825 3,432
Total 78,037

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the
accommodation becomes leased, which begins with the Lake Retail in 2017 with the remaining
accommodation planned in 2018 and 2019. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum
under the terms of a hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under
the assumption that rental contracts will be in local currency.

Different occupancy rates have been applied depending on the nature of the store and the amount of
accommodation available as follows:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Stabilised


Accommodation Type 2017 2018 2019 2020 Occupancy Rate

Additional income is generated through speciality leasing, sponsorship, turnover rent and outdoor food and
beverage. These are included in the cash flow as follows:

Income Stream % Revenue Stream


Speciality Leasing 5.00 Of Gross Revenue
Sponsorship 3.00 Of Gross Revenue
Turnover Rent 10.00 Of Gross Revenue
Outdoor Food and Beverage 20.00 Of Total Food and Beverage Revenue

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made a 15.00% allowance, based upon the gross
rent, for operational expenditure, a 5.00% allowance based upon the net rent, for management fees and a
3.00% allowance, based upon the gross rent, for sales and marketing expenditure, to give the net income
for the retail accommodation. We consider allowances at these levels to be reasonable for a retail scheme
of this nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the retail element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 11.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of
valuation which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of
the building at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Our exit date has been determined having regard to the date at which the majority of the retail
accommodation becomes available to lease which is in 2018. We consider that the majority of major
occupiers / international brands will look to sign a ten year contract which would expire in 2028. On expiry
of the initial lease, we would expect the occupiers to renew, dependant on the successfulness of the
scheme, which would mean that a sale in 2032 would be attractive to potential purchasers looking to
benefit from a product offering a long unexpired term.

Offices
The office accommodation within Mivida totals some 88,942 sq m of which 54,278 sq m is available to lease
with the remainder available for purchase.

For the office accommodation available to lease, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other
schemes across the Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of
valuation as well as those achieved by the company in the office accommodation on site which is already
leased. Rental values have been applied as follows:

Accommodation Type Market Rent at the date of valuation


(EGP per sq m)
Offices 2,325

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the
accommodation becomes leased. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the
terms of a hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt.

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made an allowance for operational expenditure at
EGP 346 per sq m, increasing at 3.00% per annum, to give the net income of the office accommodation. We
consider allowances at this level to be reasonable for an office scheme of this nature. This will be fully
recoverable from the tenants via a service charge.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the office element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 11.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of
valuation which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of
the building at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

For the office accommodation available to purchase, we have applied a current sales rate of EGP 27,372 per
sq m which we have grown at 3.00% per year until the date of sales. The current sales rate applied is in line
with other current recent transactions which we are aware of.

The timing for the office sales has been applied as follows:

Construction costs for the scheme and the timing thereof have been provided by the Client. We would
comment that the average build rates for the various asset classes appear to be reasonable; however, we
are not qualified cost consultants. If further clarification surrounding the costs applied is required then we
recommend appointing specialist cost consultant. We have been advised that construction costs are
inclusive of a 5.00% contingency and an 8.00% annual escalation that is embedded in the cost.
Outstanding construction costs for each element of the scheme are as follows:

Analysis
The net cash flow has then been discounted annually to give a Net Present Value (NPV) or Market Value for
the scheme.

The discount rate applied has been calculated as follows:

Type of Risk Rate


Risk Free Rate 2.17 (10 yr US Treasury Bond as at 31 December 2014)

Total 15.92%

In our opinion a discount rate of 16.00% is reasonable for a property of this nature and is in line with the
return that investors in the Egyptian property market would require. On this basis we consider the Market
Value of the subject property to be in the region of EGP 6,650,649,316 which we have rounded to
EGP 6,650,650,000.

We include extracts from our cash flow as Appendix 2.3.

The future revenue stream for the residential accommodation has been provided by the Client. With
regards to timing, future sales for each of the residential parcels is in line with the Client’s proposed
development plans which we consider to be reasonable. The future sales revenue for each of the parcels
has been projected in line with the historic sales on site and also having regard to how sales revenues have
grown year on year since the development was launched. We have been provided with the historic sales
data and consider the future revenue expectations to be reasonable.

The following annual price escalations have been adopted in our projections:

Year 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024
Price per sq m 14% 14% 16% 17% 17% 18% 17% 16% 16% 16%

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers which is either over four years until
delivery or over an extended payment schedule that continues after delivery (requiring 70.00% – 80.00%
payment prior to delivery and remainder over 1 – 3 years). The extended price is at a 12.00% premium in
comparison to the four year payment plan price.

Retail
For the retail accommodation, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other schemes across
the El Alamein area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of valuation. Rental
values have been applied as follows across the various different store types:

Market Rent at the date of


GLA
Accommodation Type valuation
(sq m)
(EGP per sq m)
M Porium 2,400 4,686
M Porium Phase 2 2,400 369

S2 2,500 5,250
Civic Centre 2 2,500 1,653
Civic Centre 3 2,500 4,610
Total 32,318

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the
accommodation becomes leased, which began with M Porium in 2014 with the remaining accommodation
planned as per the table below. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the terms
of a hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under the assumption
that rental contracts will be in local currency.

We understand that a service charge is levied on the existing accommodation although we have considered
it as neutral within the cash flow. We have made a 5.00% allowance based upon the net rent, for
management fees and a 2.50% allowance, based upon the gross rent, for sales and marketing expenditure,
to give the net income for the retail accommodation. We consider allowances at these levels to be
reasonable for a retail scheme of this nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the retail element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 12.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of
valuation which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of
the building at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Our exit date has been determined having regard to the date at which the majority of the retail
accommodation becomes available to lease which is in 2024. On expiry of the initial lease, we would
expect the occupiers to renew, dependant on the successfulness of the scheme, which would mean that a
sale in 2032 would be attractive to potential purchasers looking to benefit from a product which is mature
and benefitting from a good occupancy rate.

In terms of non-room revenues we have included food and beverage revenue ranging between 35.00% and
50.00% of room revenue dependant on the rating of the hotel; other revenue (conference rooms, spa,
banquet hall, etc) has been included at rate between 1.00% and 3.00% of room revenue, again dependant
on the rating of the hotel. We set out below each revenue stream throughout the cash flow period as a

The NOP for each hotel was then capitalized using an EBITDA multiple of 10 which we consider to be
market facing.

Other
Throughout Marassi there are various other ancillary uses which have a revenue stream and can therefore
be considered as part of the valuation. The revenue projections for these areas have been supplied by the
Client and we can confirm that in our opinion the assumptions seem reasonable.

Given the scale of the development and significant proportion of commercial uses on site, there are a
number of staff accommodation buildings including residential apartments, staff hostel, administration
buildings, nursery, services building and additional retail accommodation. Again, the Client has provided
the revenue assumption for these buildings which we consider to be reasonable.

Construction Costs
Construction costs for the scheme and the timing thereof have been provided by the Client. We would
comment that the average build rates for the various asset classes appear to be reasonable; however, we
are not qualified cost consultants. If further clarification surrounding the costs applied is required then we
recommend appointing specialist cost consultant. We have been advised that construction costs are
inclusive of a 5.00% contingency and an 8.00% annual escalation that is embedded in the cost.

Outstanding construction costs for each element of the scheme are as follows:

Use Remaining Construction Costs


Residential 18,721,756,373
Retail 387,525,518
Hospitality 7,487,242,017
Assets 635,913,879
South Land 312,644,216
Total 27,545,082,002

Taxation
We have made an adjustment to reflect the liability of Income Tax payable on the income generated
through the developments operations, alongside Capital Gains Tax payable upon a future sale. These taxes
are levied by the Egyptian authorities at a rate of 22.50%. The scheme is tax exempt until the end of 2018.

Finance Costs
Our opinion of Market Value is stated gross of finance costs. Development schemes of this magnitude tend
to be predominately funded by pre-sales. Furthermore any additional finance costs will be specific to a
purchaser dependant on their financial position at the date of purchase and the relationship they have with
lending institutions.

Valuation date: 31 December 2014

Analysis
The net cash flow has then been discounted annually to give a Net Present Value (NPV) or Market Value for
the scheme.

The discount rate applied has been calculated as follows:

Type of Risk Rate


Risk Free Rate 2.17 (10 yr US Treasury Bond as at 31 December 2014)
Country Risk 11.25% (as per Damodaran Online)
Market Risk 1.00%
Specific Risk 1.50%
Total 15.92%

In our opinion a discount rate of 16.00% is reasonable for a property of this nature and is in line with the
return that investors in the Egyptian property market would require. On this basis we consider the Market
Value of the subject property to be in the region of EGP 8,916,797,613, which we have rounded to
EGP 8,916,800,000.

3.4 VALUATION METHODOLOGY – CAIRO GATE


In formulating our opinion of Market Value, DTZ has employed the comparable method of valuation. The
comparable method of valuation is deemed an appropriate method for determining the value of raw land
plots.

Having regards to comparable transactions across the Greater Cairo Area, we have applied individual land
rates to the net areas of the individual plots, based upon the planning permissions currently in place. Given
the location of the subject property and the surrounding mixed-use developments, namely Dandy Mall,
Park Avenue Mall and Smart City, we would assume that a change of use to mixed-use would likely be
granted over the entire site. We are of the opinion that a potential purchaser would take this into account
when making a purchase decision. The additional costs that the Company estimates to be paid to the
Governmental/Regulatory authorities in connection with obtaining planning permission for a mixed-use
development is estimated at EGP 450 per sq m, to be repaid over a period of eight years. In our opinion, a
conversion cost of EGP 450 per sq m seems extremely high. We would expect them to be in the region of
5.00% of land value. Given the uncertainty surrounding the designation of the various land plots our
opinion of Market Value is stated gross of any planning costs there might be.

We set out below a table outlining the land rate applied to the subject property:

Gross Land Area Net Land Area Land Rate


Plot Use
(sq m) (sq m) (EGP per sq m)
Cairo Gate Mixed-Use 602,040 583,290 1,600
Total 602,040 583,290

We have been asked to provide our opinion of Market Value on the special assumption that the land area
of 18,550 sq m is expropriated for public use and the Market Value on the special assumption that the land
area of 18,550 sq m will not be expropriated for public use. We set out below our Market Value for each
special assumption:

Our opinions of Market Value under these special assumptions are stated gross of any planning costs which
may be incurred in the future by a purchaser.

3.5 BASIS OF VALUATION


In accordance with your instructions, we have undertaken our valuations on the following basis:-

a. Market Value;

We have set out the definitions of the above basis of valuation in Section 4 of this Valuation Report.

In addition, you have requested that we provide valuations on the following bases:-

b. Market Value on the special assumption that the land area of 18,550 sq m is expropriated for
public use;
c. Market Value on the special assumption that the land area of 18,550 sq m will not be
expropriated for public use.

In preparing our valuation on these bases, it is necessary for us to prepare valuations on a "Special
Assumption". A Special Assumption is referred to in the Glossary in the Red Book as an assumption that
"either assumes facts that differ from the actual facts existing at the valuation date, or that would not be
made by a typical market participant in a transaction on the valuation date".

In the circumstances of this instruction, we consider the above Special Assumption(s) may be regarded as
realistic, relevant and valid.

4 Valuation Conditions and Assumptions, Bases of Valuation,


Equivalent Yields & Valuation Printout Explanations
4.1 VALUATION CONDITIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS
These are the conditions and Assumptions upon which our valuations and reports are normally prepared
and form an integral part of our appointment together with our related Engagement Letter and DTZ Terms
and Conditions. Unless otherwise referred to in this Valuation Report these conditions and Assumptions
apply to the valuation(s) that are the subject of this Valuation Report. We have made certain Assumptions
in relation to facts, conditions or situations affecting the subject of, or approach to, our valuations that we
have not verified as part of the valuation process but rather, as referred to in the Glossary to the RICS
Valuation – Professional Standards 2014 (Red Book), have treated as “a supposition taken to be true”. In
the event that any of these Assumptions prove to be incorrect then our valuation(s) will need to be
reviewed.

4.1.1 Basis of Valuation


Each of the properties has been valued on the basis/bases set out in Section 3.5 of this Valuation Report
and defined in Section 4.2 of this Valuation Report.

4.1.2 Title
We have not had access to the title deeds of the properties. Unless specifically advised to the contrary by
you or your legal adviser, we have made the Assumption that titles are good and marketable and are free
from rights of way or easements, restrictive covenants, disputes or onerous or unusual outgoings. We have
also made the Assumption that the properties are free from mortgages, charges or other encumbrances.

Where a Certificate of Title has been made available, we have reflected its contents in our valuation(s).
Save as disclosed either in any such Certificate of Title or as referred to in our Valuation Report, we have
made the Assumption that there is good and marketable title and that each property is free from rights of
way or easements, restrictive covenants, disputes or onerous or unusual outgoings. We have also made
the Assumption that each property is free from mortgages, charges or other encumbrances.

Where a Valuation Report contains site plans these are based on extracts of the Ordnance Survey or other
maps showing, for identification purposes only, our understanding of the extent of title based on site
inspections or copy title plans supplied to us. If verification of the accuracy of these plans is required, the
matter must be referred by you to your solicitors.

4.1.3 Condition of structure and services, deleterious materials


It is a condition of DTZ or any related company, or any qualified employee, providing advice and opinions as
to value, that the client and/or third parties (whether notified to us or not) accept that the Valuation
Report in no way relates to, or gives warranties as to, the condition of the structure, foundations, soil and
services.

QAVA No: 671 A-34 Valuation Report Page 31


Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Valuation date: 31 December 2014

Our valuations have taken account of the general condition of each of the properties as observed from the
valuation inspection. Where a separate condition or structural survey has been undertaken and made
available to us, we have reflected the contents of the survey report in our valuations, and we may have
discussed the report with the originating surveyor.

Due regard has been paid to the apparent state of repair and condition of each of the properties, but a
condition survey has not been undertaken, nor has woodwork or other parts of the structures which are
covered, unexposed or inaccessible, been inspected. Therefore, we are unable to report that the
properties are structurally sound or are free from any defects. We have made an Assumption that the
properties are free from any rot, infestation, adverse toxic chemical treatments, and structural or design
defects other than such as may be mentioned in our Valuation Report.

We have not arranged for investigations to be made to determine whether high alumina cement concrete,
calcium chloride additive or any other deleterious material have been used in the construction or any
alterations in respect of any of the properties, and therefore we cannot confirm that the properties are free
from risk in this regard. For the purposes of our valuation(s), we have made an Assumption that any such
investigation would not reveal the presence of such materials in any adverse condition.

We have not carried out an asbestos inspection and have not acted as an asbestos inspector in completing
the valuation. We have not made an enquiry of the duty holder, of an existence of an Asbestos Register or
of any plan for the management of asbestos to be made. Where relevant, we have made an Assumption
that a Register of Asbestos and Effective Management Plan is place, which does not require any immediate
expenditure, or pose a significant risk to health. We advise that such enquiries be undertaken by a lawyer
during normal pre-contract or pre-loan enquiries.

No mining, geological or other investigations have been undertaken to certify that the site is free from any
defect as to foundations. We have made an Assumption that the load bearing qualities of the sites of each
of the properties are sufficient to support the buildings constructed, or to be constructed thereon. We
have also made an Assumption that there are no services on, or crossing the site in a position which would
inhibit development or make it unduly expensive and that there are no abnormal ground conditions, nor
archaeological remains present, which might adversely affect the present or future occupation,
development or value of any of the properties.

No tests have been carried out as to electrical, electronic, heating, plant and machinery equipment or any
other services nor have the drains been tested. However, we have made an Assumption that all services,
including gas, water, electricity and sewerage are provided and are functioning satisfactorily.

4.1.4 Plant and Machinery


No allowance has been made for any items of plant or machinery not forming part of the service
installations of the building. We have specifically excluded all items of plant, machinery and equipment
installed wholly or primarily in connection with any of the occupants’ businesses. We have also excluded
furniture and furnishings, fixtures, fittings, vehicles, stock and loose tools.

4.1.5 Goodwill
No account has been taken in our valuation(s) of any business goodwill that may arise from the present
occupation of any of the properties.

Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Valuation date: 31 December 2014

4.1.6 Floor areas and inspections


Unless referred to otherwise in our Valuation Report, we have physically inspected each of the properties
and have either carried out a measured survey or have calculated floor areas from plans provided by the
Applicant or their agents, supported by check measurements on site. Measurement has been in
accordance with the current Code of Measuring Practice prepared by the Royal Institution of Chartered
Surveyors.

Where we were not instructed to measure and calculate the floor areas, we have applied floor areas
provided by the Applicant or their agents. We have made an Assumption that these areas have been
measured and calculated in accordance with the current Code of Measuring Practice prepared by the Royal
Institution of Chartered Surveyors.

4.1.7 Environmental matters


We have made the enquiries referred to in this Valuation Report regarding environmental matters including
contamination and flooding, and we have had regard to any environmental reports referred to in this
Valuation Report. However, we have not undertaken a formal environmental assessment.

Where our enquiries have lead us to believe that a property is unaffected by contamination, flooding or
other environmental problems, then, unless you have instructed us otherwise, our valuation of that
property is based on an Assumption that no contamination or other adverse environmental matters exist in
relation to the property sufficient to affect value.

4.1.8 Statutory requirements and planning


We have made verbal or written enquiries, or an inspection of the website, of the relevant planning
authorities as referred to in this Valuation Report as to the possibility of highway proposals, comprehensive
development schemes and other ancillary planning matters that could affect property values. We have also
sought to ascertain whether any outstanding planning applications exist which may affect any of the
properties. We have also attempted to verify the existing permitted use of each of the properties, and
endeavoured to have sight of any copies of planning permissions. The results of these enquiries are in the
"Property information" of this Valuation Report.

Save as disclosed in a Certificate of Title or unless otherwise advised, and unless otherwise referred to in
this Valuation Report we have made the Assumption that the building has been constructed in full
compliance with valid town planning and building regulations approvals and that where necessary has the
benefit of current Fire Risk Assessments. Similarly, we have also made the Assumption that each of the
properties are not subject to any outstanding statutory notices as to construction, use or occupation and
that the existing uses of the properties are duly authorised or established and that no adverse planning
conditions or restrictions apply.

We have made the Assumption that each of the properties comply with all relevant statutory requirements.

4.1.9 Leasing
We have read all the leases and related documents provided to us, subject to the provisions of the
paragraph below. We have made an Assumption that copies of all relevant documents have been sent to us
and that they are complete and up to date.

We have not undertaken investigations into the financial strength of any tenant. Unless we have become
aware by general knowledge, or we have been specifically advised to the contrary, we have made an
Assumption that:

QAVA No: 671 A-36 Valuation Report Page 33


Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Valuation date: 31 December 2014

a where a property is occupied under leases then the tenants are financially in a position to meet
their obligations, and

b there are no material arrears of rent or service charges, breaches of covenant, current or
anticipated tenant disputes.

However, our valuations reflect the market's general perception of the credit worthiness of the type of
tenant actually in occupation or responsible for meeting lease commitments, or likely to be in occupation.

We have also made an Assumption that wherever rent reviews or lease renewals are pending or
impending, with anticipated reversionary increases, all notices have been served validly within the
appropriate time limits.

4.1.10 Legal issues


Legal issues, and in particular the interpretation of matters relating to title and leases, may have a
significant bearing on the value of an interest in property. No responsibility or liability will be accepted for
the true interpretation of the legal position of our client or other parties. Where we express an opinion
upon legal issues affecting the valuation, then such opinion should be subject to verification by the client
with a suitable qualified lawyer.

4.1.11 Information
We have made the Assumption that the information provided by the Company, the Applicant and the
Company’s respective professional advisers in respect of each of the properties we have valued is both full
and correct. We have made the Assumption that details of all matters relevant to value within your and
their collective knowledge, such as prospective lettings, rent reviews, outstanding requirements under
legislation and planning decisions, have been made available to us, and that such information is up to date.

4.1.12 Taxation
We have made an adjustment to reflect the liability of income tax payable on the income generated
through the developments operations, alongside Capital Gains Tax payable upon a future sale. These taxes
are levied by the Egyptian authorities at the prevailing rates presented within our Valuation Reports.

No adjustment has been made to reflect costs associated with disposal incurred by the owner.
Furthermore, no allowance has been made to reflect any liability to repay any government or other grants,
taxation allowance or lottery funding that may arise on disposal.

Our valuation figure for each property is that receivable by the willing seller excluding VAT, if applicable.

Where we express an opinion upon taxation issues affecting the valuation, then such opinion should be
subject to verification by the client with a suitable qualified Chartered Tax Accountant.

4.1.13 Properties in the course of development or requiring refurbishment


Unless otherwise referred to in the Valuation Report, we have relied upon information relating to
construction and associated costs in respect of both the work completed and the work necessary for
completion, together with a completion date, as advised by the owner of the property.

Unless otherwise referred to in the Valuation Report, our valuation of the completed building has been
based on an Assumption that all works of construction have been satisfactorily carried out in accordance

QAVA No: 671 A-37 Valuation Report Page 34


Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Valuation date: 31 December 2014

with the building contract and specifications, current British Standards and any relevant codes of practice.
We have also made an Assumption that a duty of care and all appropriate warranties will be available from
the professional team and contractors, which will be assignable to third parties.

4.1.14 Information Receivable


DTZ has received from the Company the following and has relied upon this information when completing
the valuation:

 Master plans and layouts;


 Use classes;
 Built up and leasable/saleable areas;
 Construction costs;
 Rollout plans;
 Locations;
 Number of units/keys;
 Management fees;
 G&A, sales and marketing costs;
 Income receivable and pre-leases/pre-sales.

4.2 DEFINITIONS OF BASES OF VALUATIONS

4.2.1 Market value


Market Value as defined in VPS 4 1.2 of the RICS Valuation – Professional Standards 2014 ("the Red Book")
and applying the conceptual framework which is set out in IVS Framework paragraphs 30-34. Under VPS
4.1.2.1, the term "Market Value" means "The estimated amount for which an asset or liability should
exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's length transaction
after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without
compulsion"

The conceptual framework settled by the IVSC is set out in paragraphs 30-34 of the IVS Framework and is
reproduced below:-

"30. The definition of market value shall be applied in accordance with the following conceptual
framework:

(a) "the estimated amount" refers to a price expressed in terms of money payable for the asset in an
arm's length market transaction. Market value is the most probable price reasonably obtainable in the
market on the valuation date in keeping with the market value definition. It is the best price reasonably
obtainable by the seller and the most advantageous price reasonably obtainable by the buyer. This
estimate specifically excludes an estimated price inflated or deflated by special terms or circumstances
such as atypical financing, sale and leaseback arrangements, special considerations or concessions granted
by anyone associated with the sale, or any element of special value;

(b) "an asset should exchange" refers to the fact that the value of an asset is an estimated amount
rather than a predetermined amount or actual sale price. It is the price in a transaction that meets all the
elements of the market value definition at the valuation date;

(c) "on the valuation date" requires that the value is time-specific as of a given date. Because markets
and market conditions may change, the estimated value may be incorrect or inappropriate at another time.
The valuation amount will reflect the market state and circumstances as at the valuation date, not those at
any other date;

(d) "between a willing buyer" refers to one who is motivated, but not compelled to buy. This buyer is
neither over eager nor determined to buy at any price. This buyer is also one who purchases in accordance
with the realities of the current market and with current market expectations, rather than in relation to an
imaginary or hypothetical market that cannot be demonstrated or anticipated to exist. The assumed buyer
would not pay a higher price than the market requires. The present owner is included among those who
constitute "the market";

(e) "and a willing seller" is neither an over eager nor a forced seller prepared to sell at any price, nor
one prepared to hold out for a price not considered reasonable in the current market. The willing seller is
motivated to sell the asset at market terms for the best price attainable in the open market after proper
marketing, whatever that price may be. The factual circumstances of the actual owner are not a part of this
consideration because the willing seller is a hypothetical owner;

(f) "in an arm's length transaction" is one between parties who do not have a particular or special
relationship, eg parent and subsidiary companies or landlord and tenant, that may make the price level

QAVA No: 671 A-39 Valuation Report Page 36


Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Valuation date: 31 December 2014

uncharacteristic of the market or inflated because of an element of special value. The market value
transaction is presumed to be between unrelated parties, each acting independently;

(g) "after proper marketing" means that the asset would be exposed to the market in the most
appropriate manner to effect its disposal at the best price reasonable obtainable in accordance with the
market value definition. The method of sale is deemed to be that most appropriate to obtain the best price
in the market to which the seller has access. The length of exposure time is not a fixed period but will vary
according to the type of asset and market conditions. The only criterion is that there must have been
sufficient time to allow the asset to be brought to the attention of an adequate number of market
participants. The exposure period occurs prior to the valuation date;

(h) "where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently" presumes that both the willing buyer
and the willing seller are reasonably informed about the nature and characteristics of the asset, its actual
and potential uses and the state of the market as of the valuation date. Each is further presumed to use
that knowledge prudently to seek the price that is most favourable for their respective positions in the
transaction. Prudence is assessed by referring to the state of the market at the valuation date, not with
benefit of hindsight at some later date. For example, it is not necessarily imprudent for a seller to sell
assets in a market with falling prices at a price that is lower than previous market levels. In such cases, as is
true for other exchanges in markets with changing prices, the prudent buyer or seller will act in accordance
with the best market information available at the time;

(i) "and without compulsion" establishes that each party is motivated to undertake the transaction,
but neither is forced or unduly coerced to complete it.

31. The concept of market value presumes a price negotiated in an open and competitive market
where the participants are acting freely. The market for an asset could be an international market or a
local market. The market could consist of numerous buyers and sellers, or could be one characterised by a
limited number of market participants. The market in which the asset is exposed for sale is the one in
which the asset being exchanged is normally exchanged (see paras 16 to 20 above).

32. The market value of an asset will reflect its highest and best use. The highest and best use is the
use of an asset that maximises its potential and that is possible, legally permissible and financially feasible.
The highest and best use may be for continuation of an asset's existing use or for some alternative use.
This is determined by the use that a market participant would have in mind for the asset when formulating
the price that it would be willing to bid.

33. The highest and best use of an asset valued on a stand-alone basis may be different from its highest
and best use as part of a group, when its contribution to the overall value of the group must be considered.

34. The determination of the highest and best use involves consideration of the following:

(a) to establish whether a use is possible, regard will be had to what would be considered reasonable
by market participants,

(b) to reflect the requirement to be legally permissible, any legal restrictions on the use of the asset, eg
zoning designations, need to be taken into account,

(e) the requirement that the use be financially feasible takes into account whether an alternative use
that is physically possible and legally permissible will generate sufficient return to a typical market

QAVA No: 671 A-40 Valuation Report Page 37

Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Valuation date: 31 December 2014

participant, after taking into account the costs of conversion to that use, over and above the return on the
existing use.

4.2.2 Market Rent


Market Rent as defined in VPS 4.1.3 of the Red Book. Under VPS 4.1.3.1 the term "Market Rent" means
"The estimated amount for which an interest in real property should be leased on the valuation date
between a willing lessor and a willing lessee on appropriate lease terms in an arm's length transaction, after
proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without
compulsion".

Whenever Market Rent is provided, the "appropriate lease terms" which it reflects should also be stated.

The commentary from the Red Book is reproduced below.

"1.3.2 The definition of market rent is a modified definition of market value; IVS 230 Real Property
Interests paragraph C8-C11 provide additional commentary.

1.3.3. Market rent will vary significantly according to the terms of the assumed lease contract. The
appropriate lease terms will normally reflect current practice in the market in which the property is
situated, although for certain purposes unusual terms may need to be stipulated. Matters such as the
duration of the lease, the frequency of rent reviews and the responsibilities of the parties for maintenance
and outgoings will all impact the market rent. In certain countries or states, statutory factors may either
restrict the terms that may be agreed, or influence the impact of terms in the contract. These need to be
taken into account were appropriate.

1.3.4 Market rent will normally be used to indicate the amount for which a vacant property may be let,
or for which a let property be may relet when the existing lease terminates. Market rent is not a suitable
basis for settling the amount of rent payable under a rent review provision in a lease, where the actual
definitions and assumptions have to be used.

1.3.5 Valuers must therefore take care to set out clearly the principal lease terms that are assumed when
providing an opinion of market rent. If it is the market norm for lettings to include a payment or concession
by one party to the other as an incentive to enter into a lease, and this is reflected in the general level of
rents agreed, the market rent should also be expressed on this basis. The nature of the incentive assumed
must be stated by the valuer, along with the assumed lease terms.

Emaar Drive, Uptown Cairo’s main road, will link Uptown Cairo to Downtown Cairo and other greater Cairo
destinations. There will be three points of access and egress on Emaar Drive: one to the north linking to 6th
of October Bridge; one to the west linking to Mokkatam Uphill Road; and one to the east linking to El
Shaheed Axes and to the ring road at Katamiya Heights.

We consider the location of Uptown Cairo and its accessibility, once its road network is complete, to be
major strengths. Once Phase 2 is complete, residents of Uptown Cairo will benefit greatly from short drive
times to the surrounding areas giving the property unrivalled accessibility in comparison to other schemes in
the area.

The residential accommodation is in various stages of development throughout the subject property, with
some units in the early stages of construction or design, whilst others are fully constructed, sold and
occupied.

The accommodation is of concrete frame construction with rendered block work elevations surmounted by
flat or pitched tiled roofs. Internally the units are finished to a high specification with the benefit of tiled
floors, painted plaster walls and ceilings, fully fitted kitchens, fully fitted bathrooms, and air conditioning
throughout.

Each residential parcel has a community centre which is for the use of the residents. The community centres
typically have the benefit of a swimming pool, retail shop or food and beverage outlet, meeting / function
room, gym and children’s area. These are non-income generating assets although help to increase the
attractiveness of the scheme for potential purchasers.

Emaar Square
At present, Emaar Square is currently a plot of raw land; however, once complete we understand it will
comprise a high-end, open-air shopping centre, office accommodation and two hotels. In keeping with the
residential accommodation within Uptown Cairo and Emaar’s other projects, we expect the accommodation
to be developed to a high specification. We understand the shopping centre is likely to be operated by
Emaar Malls with the hotels operated by The Address and Vida.

Emaar Square, once complete is expected to comprise the following:

 156,504 sq m (GLA) of retail;


 83,102 sq m (GLA) of office space;
 280 keys between two hotels;
 314 units of serviced apartments;
 3,297 units of residential apartments;
 Up to 14,000 car parking spaces.

Golf Course and Clubhouse


The residential accommodation within Uptown Cairo is set around an 18-hole golf course which also has the
benefit of clubhouse. At the time of inspection only two of the holes had been laid with turf and they were
not playable. The opening of 9 holes of the golf course is currently envisaged in 2016, with the full 18 holes
due to open by the end of 2018.

The clubhouse is of concrete frame construction with rendered block work elevations surmounted by a
pitched tiled roof. Internally the clubhouse is finished to a high specification and has the benefit of a
restaurant, bar, smoking room, offices, and banquet hall.

School & Spa


Within the development, two plots of land have been allocated for the development of a school and a spa
hotel. At present the plots are raw land. It is planned that the company will sell the land for the spa hotel as

raw land to a third party developer. The land allocated for the school will be developed by Emaar and
operated by American International School (AIS) with a preliminary agreement already in place.

We include as Appendix 1.2, a selection of photographs taken during our inspection of the property on 28
January 2015.

1.1.3 Condition
The property appears to have been well maintained having regard to its age, use and construction.
However, we have not undertaken a condition survey and we would draw your attention to our Assumptions
in Section 4.1.

1.1.4 Deleterious Materials


The age and style of construction of the subject property are such that materials such as high alumina
cement concrete, woodwool shuttering, calcium chloride or asbestos are unlikely to have been used in its
original construction or subsequent alteration. We would draw your attention to Section 4.1 of this
Valuation Report.

1.1.7 Environmental Matters


We have been instructed not to make any investigations in relation to the presence or potential presence of
contamination in land or buildings, and to make an Assumption that if investigations were made to an
appropriate extent then nothing would be discovered sufficient to affect value. We have not carried out any
investigation into past uses, either of the property or any adjacent land, to establish whether there is any
potential for contamination from such uses or sites and have, therefore, made an Assumption that none
exists. Commensurate with our Assumptions set out above we have not made any allowance in the
valuation for any effect in respect of actual or potential contamination of land or buildings.

In practice, purchasers in the property market do not make such an assumption about contamination and a
purchaser of the property may require appropriate investigations to be made so as to assess any risk before
completing a transaction.

We have no basis upon which to assess the reasonableness of this Assumption. If it were to prove invalid
then the value would fall by an unspecified amount.

1.1.8 Planning
We have been provided with a copy of the planning permission approved by Municipality of Cairo. We
include a copy of the approval as Appendix 1.3.

1.1.9 Tenure
We have not been provided with a copy of the title deeds for the subject property. We have therefore
assumed that the property is held freehold, free from rent charge, restriction as to use, title or occupation
and free from any other restriction which may affect value.

We recommend that the title deeds are verified by your solicitors.

1.1.10 Tenancies
The subject property is multi-let in part with the majority of units being sold off on a unit by unit basis. We
have not been provided with copies of the lease agreements and so have relied on the financial information
provided by the Client.

1.2 VALUATION APPROACH

1.2.1 Valuation Methodology


In formulating our opinion of Market Value, DTZ has employed the investment method of valuation,
specifically utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Using this method we have produced a cash flow
detailing the projected income and expenditure of the scheme. For the income producing assets we have
capitalized the net revenue of the said asset at the end of the cash flow using an appropriate exit yield in
order to provide an exit value. The sum of the net revenue and the exit value (where applicable) for each of
the asset classes is then discounted to provide our opinion of Market Value. For the spa element, we have
utilized the comparable method of valuation, applying a market facing sales rate to the net land area.

Timing
The timing for development of the scheme including construction completion dates, hand over dates, and
occupation dates has been provided by the client. In our opinion the timing seems reasonable for a
development of this scale. Please refer to Appendix 1.5 for the planned development timeline.

Determination of Revenue

Residential
Uptown Cairo is a predominately residential scheme with some 8,308 units with a total of 7,181 units

The future revenue stream for the residential accommodation has been provided by the Client. With
regards to timing, future sales for each of the residential parcels is in line with the Client’s proposed
development plans which we consider to be reasonable. The future sales revenue for each of the parcels
has been projected in line with the historic sales on site and also having regard to how sales revenues have
grown year on year since the development was launched. We have been provided with the historic sales
data and consider the future revenue expectations to be reasonable.

The following annual price escalations have been adopted in our projections:

Year 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024
Price per sq m 13% 15% 17% 17% 18% 18% 18% 18% 18% 18%

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers which is either over four years until
delivery or over an extended payment schedule that continues after delivery (requiring 70.00% – 80.00%
payment prior to delivery and remainder over 1 – 3 years). The extended price is at a 12.00% premium in
comparison to the four year payment plan price.

Retail
For the retail accommodation, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other schemes across the
Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of valuation. Rental values
have been applied as follows across the various different store types:

Accommodation Type Market Rent at the date of valuation GLA


(EGP per sq m) (sq m)
Hyper Market 2,090 6,000
Major 2,660 5,500
Mini Major 3,990 18,000

Cinema 1,570 6,000
F&B 7,220 27,360
Food Court 10,000 3,000
Total 156,504

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the accommodation
becomes leased in 2021. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the terms of a
hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under the assumption that
rental contracts will be in local currency.

UTC Clubhouse is already operational and has been income generating for a number of years. Predicted
revenue for 2015 is EGP 8,250,000 which we have grown at 10.00% per annum.

Various occupancy rates have been applied depending upon the nature of the store and the amount of
accommodation available as follows:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Stabilised

Additional income is generated through speciality leasing, sponsorship, turnover rent and outdoor food and
beverage. These are included in the cash flow as follows:

Income Stream % Revenue Stream


Speciality Leasing 5.00 Of Gross Revenue
Sponsorship 3.00 Of Gross Revenue
Turnover Rent 10.00 Of Gross Revenue
Outdoor Food and Beverage 25.00 Of Total Food and Beverage Revenue

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made a 15.00% allowance, based upon the gross
rent, for operational expenditure, a 5.00% allowance based upon the net rent, for management fees and a
3.00% allowance, based upon the gross rent, for sales and marketing expenditure, to give the net income for
the retail accommodation. We consider allowances at these levels to be reasonable for a retail scheme of
this nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the retail element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 10.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of valuation
which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of the building
at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Our exit date has been determined having regard to the date at which the majority of the retail
accommodation becomes available to lease which is in 2021. We consider that the majority of major
occupiers / international brands will look to sign a ten year contract which would expire in 2031. On expiry
of the initial lease, we would expect the occupiers to renew, dependant on the successfulness of the
scheme, which would mean that a sale in 2032 would be attractive to potential purchasers looking to benefit
from a product offering a long unexpired term.

Offices
The proposed office accommodation within Uptown Cairo totals some 83,102 sq m of which 70.00% is going
to be made available to lease and 30.00% available for purchase.

For the office accommodation available to lease, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other
schemes across the Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of
valuation. Rental values have been applied as follows:

Market Rent at the date of valuation


Accommodation Type
(EGP per sq m)
Offices 2,850

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the accommodation
becomes leased. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the terms of a
hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under the assumption that
rental contracts will be in local currency.

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made an allowance for operational expenditure at
EGP 105 per sq m, increasing at 3.00% per annum, for management fees at 5.00% per annum, based upon
the net rent, for G&A expenditure at 1.50% per annum, based upon the net rent, and for sales and
marketing expenditure, at 2.50% per annum, based upon the gross rent, to give the net income for the office
rental accommodation. We consider allowances at this level to be reasonable for an office scheme of this
nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the office element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 10.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of valuation
which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of the building
at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

For the office accommodation available to purchase, we have applied a current sales rate of EGP 33,000 per
sq m which we have grown at 3.00% per annum. The current sales rate applied is in line with other current
recent transactions which we are aware of. We have anticipated that office sales will occur evenly over a
two year period, with sales of 12,465 sq m in both 2017 and 2018.

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers, which is over three years.

Hotels
Considering the two proposed hotels, firstly we estimated the future revenue stream based upon the
number of rooms, the average daily rate (ADR) and the occupancy rate.

In terms of the ADR, we have had consideration of the rates achieved by similar hotels in the area. Given the
proposed quality and 5*+ rating of ‘Hotel 1” we have applied an ADR of EGP 2,285. ‘Hotel 2’ is a 5* hotel
and so we have made a 20.00% adjustment and applied an ADR of 1,828.

Hotel 1 is anticipated to have an initial occupancy rate of 45.00% in year one (2021), which we have then
grown to reach a stabilized occupancy rate of 63.00% in Year 7 (2027). Hotel 2 is anticipated to have an
initial occupancy rate of 50.00% in year one (2024), which we have then grown to reach a stabilized
occupancy rate of 66.00% in Year 7 (2030).

In terms of non-room revenues we have included food and beverage revenue at 60.00% of room revenue
and other revenue (conference rooms, spa, banquet hall, etc) has been included at 3.00% of room revenue.
We set out below each revenue stream throughout the cash flow period as a percentage of total revenue:

Year 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032
Room Revenue 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60% 60%

Other Revenue 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3% 3%

Operating expenses including administration, payroll, energy and water were deducted at 51.00% of gross
revenue; FF&E reserve payments were deducted at 1.00% of gross revenue in Year 1, 2.00% in Year 2, 3.00%
in Year 3 and 4.00% in Year 4 and thereafter; and management fees of 2.50% of gross revenue were then
deducted to give a Net Operating Profit (NOP).

The NOP was then capitalized using an EBITDA multiple of 10 for both hotels which we consider to be market
facing.

Spa Hotel
The land parcel which has been allocated for the Spa Hotel is to be sold as a land plot and we have applied
sales rate to the net land area as follows:

Land Use Sales Rate Gross Land Area Net Land Area
(EGP per sq m of (sq m) (sq m)
NLA)
Spa Hotel 4,000 57,724 25,781

School
We are advised that the Company has a preliminary agreement with the American International School (AIS)
to operate the school property under a revenue share agreement. The terms involve a fixed contract with a
minimum guaranteed payment plus a percentage revenue share, should revenue targets be achieved. We
have utilized the income and subsequent revenue share projections provided by the Company, which we
consider to be reasonable for such a development. Revenue is anticipated to begin in 2018 as follows:

Year 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025


Revenue 4,560,000 5,173,322 7,581,207 10,113,383 13,261,138 18,393,213 22,005,441 25,123,613

In determining the exit value for the school element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 10.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of valuation
which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of the building
at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Construction Costs
Construction costs for the scheme and the timing thereof have been provided by the Client. We would
comment that the average build rates for the various asset classes appear to be reasonable; however, we
are not qualified cost consultants. If further clarification surrounding the costs applied is required then we
recommend appointing specialist cost consultant. We have been advised that construction costs are
inclusive of a 5.00% contingency and an 8.00% annual escalation that is embedded in the cost.

Outstanding construction costs for each element of the scheme are as follows:

Use Remaining Construction Costs


Residential 21,564,924,509
Retail 4,458,071,574
Offices 1,728,425,748
Hospitality 1,519,026,493
Total 29,270,448,323

Taxation
We have made an adjustment to reflect the liability of Income Tax payable on the income generated through
the developments operations, alongside Capital Gains Tax payable upon a future sale. These taxes are levied
by the Egyptian authorities at a rate of 22.50%.

Finance Costs
Our opinion of Market Value is stated gross of finance costs. Development schemes of this magnitude tend
to be predominately funded by pre-sales. Furthermore any additional finance costs will be specific to a
purchaser dependant on their financial position at the date of purchase and the relationship they have with
lending institutions.

Analysis
The net cash flow has then been discounted annually to give a Net Present Value (NPV) or Market Value for
the scheme.

The discount rate applied has been calculated as follows:

Type of Risk Rate


Risk Free Rate 2.17 (10 yr US Treasury Bond as at 31 December 2014)
Country Risk 11.25% (as per Damadorian Online)
Market Risk 1.00%
Specific Risk 1.50%
Total 15.92%

In our opinion a discount rate of 16.00% is reasonable for a property of this nature and is in line with the
return that investors in the Egyptian property market would require. On this basis we consider the Market
Value of the subject property to be in the region of EGP 6,897,632,177 which we have rounded to EGP
6,897,630,000.

We include extracts from our cash flow as Appendix 1.4.

The residential accommodation is in various stages of development throughout the subject property, with
some units in the early stages of construction or design, whilst others are fully constructed, sold and
occupied.

The accommodation is of concrete frame construction with rendered block work elevations surmounted by
flat or pitched tiled roofs. Internally the units are either finished to a high specification with the benefit of
tiled floors, painted plaster walls and ceilings, fully fitted kitchens, fully fitted bathrooms, and air
conditioning throughout or are supplied as shell and core with the purchaser responsible for the fit out
works. However, in line with management strategy, in instances where it offers units that are not fully
finished, certain provisions are included in the agreements with customers to ensure completion of finishing
in a certain timeframe.

The 38 residential parcels are divided into four zones and each zone has a clubhouse, except Zone 4, which is
for the use of the residents. The clubhouses typically have the benefit of a swimming pool, retail shop or
food and beverage outlet, meeting / function room, gym and children’s area. These are non-income
generating assets although help to increase the attractiveness of the scheme for potential purchasers.

Commercial Offering
The western quadrant of Mivida, known as Zone 4, comprises the commercial element of the development
and will, once complete, will provide a retail boulevard, business centre, medical centre, school, and hotel.
Construction has commenced with a number of the office buildings in already in place.

The four storey office accommodation is of concrete frame construction with rendered block work
elevations surmounted by a flat roof. The ground floor has a floor to ceiling height glazed panel with the
upper floors benefitting glazed fenestrations. Internally the commonareas are fitted to good specification
with the benefit of tiled floors, painted plaster walls and ceilings, fluorescent strip lighting, perimeter
trunking, and air conditioning. The leasable areas are provided shell and core.

In keeping with the residential and office accommodation within Mivida and Emaar’s other projects, we
expect the retail accommodation to be developed to a high specification.

Central Park
At the centre of Mivida lies a 33 acre park which will provide a focal point of the scheme. As well as
landscaped gardens and open recreation areas, Central Park will also benefit from a number of food and
beverage outlets.

We include as Appendix 2.2, a selection of photographs taken during our inspection of the property on 26
January 2015.

2.1.3 Condition
The property appears to have been well maintained having regard to its age, use and construction.
However, we have not undertaken a condition survey and we would draw your attention to our Assumptions
in Section 4.1.

2.1.7 Environmental Matters


We have been instructed not to make any investigations in relation to the presence or potential presence of
contamination in land or buildings, and to make an Assumption that if investigations were made to an
appropriate extent then nothing would be discovered sufficient to affect value. We have not carried out any
investigation into past uses, either of the property or any adjacent land, to establish whether there is any
potential for contamination from such uses or sites and have, therefore, made an Assumption that none
exists. Commensurate with our Assumptions set out above we have not made any allowance in the
valuation for any effect in respect of actual or potential contamination of land or buildings.

In practice, purchasers in the property market do not make such an assumption about contamination and a
purchaser of the property may require appropriate investigations to be made so as to assess any risk before
completing a transaction.

We have no basis upon which to assess the reasonableness of this Assumption. If it were to prove invalid
then the value would fall by an unspecified amount.

2.1.8 Planning
We have not been provided with any planning documentation relating to the subject property and so, for
the purposes of this valuation, we have made the assumption that current or future development on site is
in compliance with any planning permissions issued by the Municipality.

We recommend that the planning permission is reviewed and verified by your solicitors.

2.1.9 Tenure
We have not been provided with a copy of the title deeds for the subject property. We have assumed that
the property is held freehold, free from rent charge, restriction as to use, title or occupation and free from
any other restriction which may affect value.

We understand the deeds will be obtained once all the land payments have been made. Once obtained, we
recommend the deeds are verified by your solicitors.

2.1.10 Tenancies
The subject property is multi-let in part with the majority of units being sold off on a unit by unit basis. We
have been provided with a selection of the lease agreements and can confirm these are in line with the
financial information supplied by the Client.

2.2 VALUATION APPROACH

2.2.1 Valuation Methodology


In formulating our opinion of Market Value, DTZ has employed the investment method of valuation,
specifically utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Using this method we have produced a cash flow
detailing the projected income and expenditure of the scheme. For the income producing assets we have
capitalized the net revenue of the said asset at the end of the cash flow using an appropriate exit yield in
order to provide an exit value. The sum of the net revenue and the exit value (where applicable) for each of
the asset classes is then discounted to provide our opinion of Market Value. For the hospitality, medical
centre and school elements, we have utilized the comparable method of valuation, applying a market facing
sales rates to the net land areas.

Timing
The timing for development of the scheme including construction completion dates, hand over dates, and
occupation dates has been provided by the client. In our opinion the timing seems reasonable for a
development of this scale. Please refer to Appendix 2.4 for the planned development timeline.

Determination of Revenue

Residential
Mivida is a predominately residential scheme with some 5,357 units with a total of 2,465 units available for
sale at the date of valuation.

The future revenue stream for the residential accommodation has been provided by the Client. With
regards to timing, future sales for each of the residential parcels is in line with the Client’s proposed
development plans which we consider to be reasonable. The future sales revenue for each of the parcels
has been projected in line with the historic sales on site and also having regard to how sales revenues have
grown year on year since the development was launched. We have been provided with the historic sales
data and consider the future revenue expectations to be reasonable.

The following annual price escalations have been adopted in our projections:

Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Mivida, Greater Cairo, Egypt
Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Date of Valuation: 31 December 2014

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers which is either over four years until
delivery or over an extended payment schedule that continues after delivery (requiring 70.00% – 80.00%
payment prior to delivery and remainder over 1 – 3 years). The extended price is at a 12.00% premium in
comparison to the initial purchase price.

Retail
For the retail accommodation, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other schemes across the
Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of valuation. Rental values
have been applied as follows across the various different store types:

Market Rent at the date of valuation GLA


Accommodation Type
(EGP per sq m) (sq m)
Hyper Market 1,965 6,000
Mini Major 3,755 8,859
Flagship 4,825 3,000
Line Shop 5,720 26,873
Cinema 1,570 3,000
Entertainment Box 1 1,570 4,000
Entertainment Box 2 1,570 4,200
Restaurants & Cafes 7,220 17,473
Food Court / Speciality Shops 10,000 1,200
Lake Retail 4,825 3,432
Total 78,037

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the accommodation
becomes leased, which begins with the Lake Retail in 2017 with the remaining accommodation planned in
2018 and 2019. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the terms of a hypothetical
lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under the assumption that rental contracts
will be in local currency.

Different occupancy rates have been applied depending on the nature of the store and the amount of
accommodation available as follows:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Stabilised


Accommodation Type 2017 2018 2019 2020 Occupancy Rate

Additional income is generated through speciality leasing, sponsorship, turnover rent and outdoor food and
beverage. These are included in the cash flow as follows:

Income Stream % Revenue Stream


Speciality Leasing 5.00 Of Gross Revenue
Sponsorship 3.00 Of Gross Revenue
Turnover Rent 10.00 Of Gross Revenue
Outdoor Food and Beverage 20.00 Of Total Food and Beverage Revenue

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made a 15.00% allowance, based upon the gross
rent, for operational expenditure, a 5.00% allowance based upon the net rent, for management fees and a
3.00% allowance, based upon the gross rent, for sales and marketing expenditure, to give the net income for
the retail accommodation. We consider allowances at these levels to be reasonable for a retail scheme of
this nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the retail element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 11.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of valuation
which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of the building
at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Our exit date has been determined having regard to the date at which the majority of the retail
accommodation becomes available to lease which is in 2018. We consider that the majority of major
occupiers / international brands will look to sign a ten year contract which would expire in 2028. On expiry
of the initial lease, we would expect the occupiers to renew, dependant on the successfulness of the
scheme, which would mean that a sale in 2032 would be attractive to potential purchasers looking to benefit
from a product offering a long unexpired term.

Offices
The office accommodation within Mivida totals some 88,942 sq m of which 54,278 sq m is available to lease
with the remainder available for purchase.

For the office accommodation available to lease, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other
schemes across the Greater Cairo area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of
valuation as well as those achieved by the company in the office accommodation on site which is already
leased. Rental values have been applied as follows:

Accommodation Type Market Rent at the date of valuation

Offices 2,325

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the accommodation
becomes leased. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the terms of a
hypothetical lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt.

Occupancy rates for each of the parcels have been applied as follows:

Having formulated our opinion of gross income we then made an allowance for operational expenditure at
EGP 346 per sq m, increasing at 3.00% per annum, to give the net income of the office accommodation. We
consider allowances at this level to be reasonable for an office scheme of this nature. This will be fully
recoverable from the tenants via a service charge.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

Mivida, Greater Cairo, Egypt
Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Date of Valuation: 31 December 2014

In determining the exit value for the office element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 11.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of valuation
which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of the building
at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

For the office accommodation available to purchase, we have applied a current sales rate of EGP 27,372 per
sq m which we have grown at 3.00% per year until the date of sales. The current sales rate applied is in line
with other current recent transactions which we are aware of.

The timing for the office sales has been applied as follows:

Parcel 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020


35 - - - - 7,819 sq m -
34-A - - - - - 6,201 sq m
31-B - - - 7,034 sq m - -
33 2,469 sq m - - - - -

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers, which is over three years.

Other
The remaining land parcels which are to be sold as land plots and we have applied sales rates to the net land
areas for each as follows:

Land Use Sales Rate Gross Land Area Net Land Area
(EGP per sq m of (sq m) (sq m)
NLA)
Hospitality 7,200 33,466 13,980
Medical Centre 6,440 108,147 45,178
School 3,898 85,525 41,047

The sports club is a membership based club which generates revenue through paid memberships. The initial
membership costs of EGP 80,000 per annum is grown at 5.00% per annum, with memberships growing from
20.00% in Year 1 to 100.00% in Year 9. The total number of memberships is 5,500. Additional revenue is
driven from food and beverage revenue and also sports and activities revenue. The sports club shall be
developed by Emaar but operated by a third party, with Emaar receiving a revenue from the recurring
income.

Land Costs
Remaining land costs and related interest payments have been provided by the client and have been taken
into account.

Construction Costs
Construction costs for the scheme and the timing thereof have been provided by the Client. We would
comment that the average build rates for the various asset classes appear to be reasonable; however, we
are not qualified cost consultants. If further clarification surrounding the costs applied is required then we
recommend appointing specialist cost consultant. We have been advised that construction costs are
inclusive of a 5.00% contingency and an 8.00% annual escalation that is embedded in the cost.
Outstanding construction costs for each element of the scheme are as follows:

Taxation
We have made an adjustment to reflect the liability of Income Tax payable on the income generated through
the developments operations, alongside Capital Gains Tax payable upon a future sale. These taxes are levied
by the Egyptian authorities at a rate of 22.50%. The scheme is tax exempt until the end of 2018.

Finance Costs
Our opinion of Market Value is stated gross of finance costs. Development schemes of this magnitude tend
to be predominately funded by pre-sales. Furthermore any additional finance costs will be specific to a
purchaser dependant on their financial position at the date of purchase and the relationship they have with
lending institutions.

Analysis
The net cash flow has then been discounted annually to give a Net Present Value (NPV) or Market Value for
the scheme.

The discount rate applied has been calculated as follows:

Type of Risk Rate


Risk Free Rate 2.17 (10 yr US Treasury Bond as at 31 December 2014)
Country Risk 11.25% (as per Damodaran Online)
Market Risk 1.00%
Specific Risk 1.50%
Total 15.92%

In our opinion a discount rate of 16.00% is reasonable for a property of this nature and is in line with the
return that investors in the Egyptian property market would require. On this basis we consider the Market
Value of the subject property to be in the region of EGP 6,650,649,316 which we have rounded to EGP
6,650,650,000.

We include extracts from our cash flow as Appendix 2.3.

The residential accommodation is in various stages of development throughout the subject property with
some units in the early stages of construction and design whilst others are fully constructed, sold and
occupied.

The accommodation is of concrete frame construction with rendered block work elevations surmounted by
flat or pitched tiled roofs. Internally the units are finished to a high specification with the benefit of tiled
floors, painted plaster walls and ceilings, fully fitted kitchens, fully fitted bathrooms, and air conditioning
throughout.

Each residential parcel has a clubhouse which is for the use of the residents. The clubhouse’s typically have
the benefit of a swimming area, retail shop or food and beverage outlet and children’s area. These are non-
income generating assets although help to increase the attractiveness of the scheme for potential
purchasers.

Overall the residential provision is to a high standard and presents very well. We would also comment upon
the area known as Valencia which comprises 59 villas fronting the Mediterranean Sea. These exclusive villas
are finished to an extremely high standard and have unrivaled views compared to the other districts on site.

Adjacent to Valencia is a plot of land which has been allocated for the development of 50 Armani branded
villas. Once complete, we expect these villas will be the most exclusive area within the development with
views over the Mediterranean and in close proximity to the Beach Club and Hotels.

Retail Accommodation
At present there is one retail centre within Marassi which became operational in 2014. Phase 2 of the centre
is nearly complete and will be operational in 2015.

Located close to Gate 3, along the western boundary of the development, “M Porium” is of concrete frame
construction with glazed and rendered block work elevations surmounted by a flat roof. There are
approximately 30 units which are arranged in a horse shoe formation around a central court yard.

Date of Valuation: 31 December 2014

There are plans to develop an additional seven retail areas with a total leasable area of 27,263 sq m.

Hospitality and Beach Club


El Alamein Hotel is located along the eastern beach front of Marassi. The hotel was the original building on
site and has been a popular holiday destination for Egyptian nationals for many years.

The three storey hotel, constructed in a linear format parallel with the beach front, is of concrete frame
construction with rendered block work elevations surmounted by a flat roof. Externally the hotel looks
dated although internally, a program of refurbishment works has kept it in good condition. On site there are
also a number of holiday villas which were being refurbished at the time of our inspection.

Located adjacent to El Alamein Hotel is the Beach Club. Recently completed, this high specification building,
provides residents with a range of restaurants, bars, lounges alongside a number of swimming pools, a gym
and various retail units.

There are plans to develop an additional 11 hotels on site, six of which will be five star, three of which will be
four star, and three of which will be three star.

Golf Course
The residential accommodation within Marassi is set around a golf course which also has the benefit of a golf
academy. At the time of inspection 13 holes were playable.

Marina District
We have been informed that a temporary license has recently been granted for a marina which is to be
constructed at the most southerly part of the development. The final license is pending upon other certain
approvals. The Marina District will, once complete, have four hotels, some 7,160 apartments, alongside a
retail provision.

Assets
On site there will also be an array of ancillary uses including the golf academy and clubhouse, two floating
restaurants, dry docks, a gas station, desalination plants, and kiosks.

South Land
With the development there is an area known as South Land which provides and mix of residential
accommodation for staff, some retail provision, an administration building, a nursery, and a services
building.

We include as Appendix 3.2, a selection of photographs taken during our inspection of the property on 28
January 2015.

3.1.3 Condition
The property appears to have been well maintained having regard to its age, use and construction.
However, we have not undertaken a condition survey and we would draw your attention to our Assumptions
in Section 4.1.

3.1.4 Deleterious Materials


The age and style of construction of the subject property are such that materials such as high alumina
cement concrete, woodwool shuttering, calcium chloride or asbestos are unlikely to have been used in its
original construction or subsequent alteration. We would draw your attention to Section 4.1 of this
Valuation Report.

3.1.5 Floor Areas


We have been provided with a schedule of areas as follows:

Total 2,507,771

3.1.7 Environmental Matters


We have been instructed not to make any investigations in relation to the presence or potential presence of
contamination in land or buildings, and to make an Assumption that if investigations were made to an
appropriate extent then nothing would be discovered sufficient to affect value. We have not carried out any
investigation into past uses, either of the property or any adjacent land, to establish whether there is any
potential for contamination from such uses or sites and have, therefore, made an Assumption that none
exists. Commensurate with our Assumptions set out above we have not made any allowance in the
valuation for any effect in respect of actual or potential contamination of land or buildings.

In practice, purchasers in the property market do not make such an assumption about contamination and a
purchaser of the property may require appropriate investigations to be made so as to assess any risk before
completing a transaction.

We have no basis upon which to assess the reasonableness of this Assumption. If it were to prove invalid
then the value would fall by an unspecified amount.

3.1.8 Planning
We have not been provided with any planning documentation relating to the subject property and so, for
the purposes of this valuation, we have made the assumption that current or future development on site is
in compliance with any planning permissions issued by the Municipality.

We recommend that the planning permission is reviewed and verified by your solicitors.

3.1.9 Tenure
We have not been provided with a copy of the title deeds for the subject property. We have therefore
assumed that the property is held freehold, free from rent charge, restriction as to use, title or occupation
and free from any other restriction which may affect value.

We recommend that the title deeds are verified by your solicitors.

3.1.10 Tenancies
The subject property is multi-let in part with the majority of units being sold off on a unit by unit basis. We
have been provided with sample copies of the lease agreements and can confirm these are in line with the
financial information provided by the Client.

3.2 VALUATION APPROACH

3.2.1 Valuation Methodology


In formulating our opinion of Market Value, DTZ has employed the investment method of valuation,
specifically utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Using this method we have produced a cash flow
detailing the projected income and expenditure of the scheme. For the income producing assets we have
capitalized the net revenue of the said asset at the end of the cash flow using an appropriate exit yield in
order to provide an exit value. The sum of the net revenue and the exit value (where applicable) for each of
the asset classes is then discounted to provide our opinion of Market Value.

Timing
The timing for development of the scheme including construction completion dates, hand over dates, and
occupation dates has been provided by the client. In our opinion the timing seems reasonable for a
development of this scale. Please refer to Appendix 3.4 for the planned development timeline.

Determination of Revenue

The following annual price escalations have been adopted in our projections:

Year 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024
Price per sq m 14% 14% 16% 17% 17% 18% 17% 16% 16% 16%

Off plan sales are based upon Emaar’s payment terms with customers which is either over four years until
delivery or over an extended payment schedule that continues after delivery (requiring 70.00% – 80.00%
payment prior to delivery and remainder over 1 – 3 years). The extended price is at a 12.00% premium in
comparison to the four year payment plan price.

Retail
For the retail accommodation, we have had regard to the rental values achieved at other schemes across the
El Alamein area when determining our opinion of Market Rent as at the date of valuation. Rental values
have been applied as follows across the various different store types:

Market Rent at the date of

Civic Centre 3 2,500 4,610
Total 32,318

The rent applied at the date of valuation has then been grown at 3.00% per annum until the accommodation
becomes leased, which began with M Porium in 2014 with the remaining accommodation planned as per the
table below. Once leased, the rent is then grown at 10.00% per annum under the terms of a hypothetical
lease which is common practice for commercial leases in Egypt, under the assumption that rental contracts
will be in local currency.

Different occupancy rates over the summer operational period have been applied depending on the nature
of the store and the amount of accommodation available as follows:

We understand that a service charge is levied on the existing accommodation although we have considered
it as neutral within the cash flow. We have made a 5.00% allowance based upon the net rent, for
management fees and a 2.50% allowance, based upon the gross rent, for sales and marketing expenditure,
to give the net income for the retail accommodation. We consider allowances at these levels to be
reasonable for a retail scheme of this nature.

A further annual allowance has been made for maintenance capital expenditure at 0.50% of the gross value
of the investment properties, excluding land cost, which we consider to be reasonable for a scheme of this
nature.

In determining the exit value for the retail element of the subject property we have applied a blended exit
yield of 12.00%. The exit yield applied has been based upon our opinion of yields as at the date of valuation
which have then been adjusted taking into consideration the timing of the exit, the condition of the building
at that time and also the likely occupancy rate at that time.

Our exit date has been determined having regard to the date at which the majority of the retail
accommodation becomes available to lease which is in 2024. On expiry of the initial lease, we would expect
the occupiers to renew, dependant on the successfulness of the scheme, which would mean that a sale in
2032 would be attractive to potential purchasers looking to benefit from a product which is mature and
benefitting from a good occupancy rate.

Hotels
Considering the proposed hotels, firstly we estimated the future revenue stream based upon the number of
rooms, the average daily rate (ADR) and the occupancy rate. ADR’s as at the date of valuation were applied
as follows:

In terms of non-room revenues we have included food and beverage revenue ranging between 35.00% and

Operating expenses including administration, payroll, energy and water have been deducted at a rate
ranging between 35.00% and 60.00% of gross revenue, dependant on the rating of the hotel; FF&E reserve
payments were deducted at 1.00% of gross revenue in Year 1, 2.00% in Year 2, 3.00% in Year 3 and 4.00% in
Year 4; and management fees of 2.50% of gross revenue were then deducted to give a Net Operating Profit
(NOP).

The NOP for each hotel was then capitalized using an EBITDA multiple of 10 which we consider to be market
facing.

Other
Throughout Marassi there are various other ancillary uses which have a revenue stream and can therefore
be considered as part of the valuation. The revenue projections for these areas have been supplied by the
Client and we can confirm that in our opinion the assumptions seem reasonable.

Given the scale of the development and significant proportion of commercial uses on site, there are a
number of staff accommodation buildings including residential apartments, staff hostel, administration
buildings, nursery, services building and additional retail accommodation. Again, the Client has provided the
revenue assumption for these buildings which we consider to be reasonable.

Construction Costs
Construction costs for the scheme and the timing thereof have been provided by the Client. We would
comment that the average build rates for the various asset classes appear to be reasonable; however, we
are not qualified cost consultants. If further clarification surrounding the costs applied is required then we
recommend appointing specialist cost consultant. We have been advised that construction costs are
inclusive of a 5.00% contingency and an 8.00% annual escalation that is embedded in the cost.

Outstanding construction costs for each element of the scheme are as follows:

Use Remaining Construction Costs


Residential 18,721,756,373
Retail 387,525,518
Hospitality 7,487,242,017
Assets 635,913,879
South Land 312,644,216
Total 27,545,082,002

Taxation
We have made an adjustment to reflect the liability of Income Tax payable on the income generated through
the developments operations, alongside Capital Gains Tax payable upon a future sale. These taxes are levied
by the Egyptian authorities at a rate of 22.50%. The scheme is tax exempt until the end of 2018.

Finance Costs
Our opinion of Market Value is stated gross of finance costs. Development schemes of this magnitude tend
to be predominately funded by pre-sales. Furthermore any additional finance costs will be specific to a
purchaser dependant on their financial position at the date of purchase and the relationship they have with
lending institutions.

Analysis
The net cash flow has then been discounted annually to give a Net Present Value (NPV) or Market Value for
the scheme.

The discount rate applied has been calculated as follows:

Type of Risk Rate


Risk Free Rate 2.17 (10 yr US Treasury Bond as at 31 December 2014)
Country Risk 11.25% (as per Damodaran Online)
Market Risk 1.00%
Specific Risk 1.50%
Total 15.92%

In our opinion a discount rate of 16.00% is reasonable for a property of this nature and is in line with the
return that investors in the Egyptian property market would require. On this basis we consider the Market
Value of the subject property to be in the region of EGP 8,916,797,613, which we have rounded to EGP
8,916,800,000.

We include extracts from our cash flow as Appendix 3.3.

4.1.2 Description
The subject property comprises three adjacent plots of raw land, known as the Arab Contractors plot (Plot
One), the Commercial International Bank plot (Plot Two) and the Aida Abdel Nasser and Daughters plot (Plot
Three), which are allocated by the Municipality for agricultural and industrial storage uses.

Plot One totals some 244,790 sq m and is designated for industrial storage use. Within this plot, however,
we are advised that some 18,750 sq m is not owned by the Company and has been expropriated for public
use pursuant to Prime Minister decree number 1142/1994. We are advised that this deduction is stipulated
in the agreement. The gross area boundaries can be found on the previous plan, demarcated in blue.

Plot Two totals some 327,950 sq m and is designated for agricultural use. Within this plot, however, we are
advised that some 15,150 sq m is not owned by the Company and has been allocated for a public road. We

A-132
Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.

are advised that this is stipulated in the agreement, subject to an increase or decrease, if the allocated area
is amended. The gross area boundaries can be found on the previous plan, demarcated in yellow.

Plot Three totals some 109,200 sq m and is designated for agricultural use. Within this plot, however, we are
advised that some 46,200 sq m is not owned by the Company and is owned and in the possession of a third
party, Dalia Fahmy, pursuant to a final contract validity judgment. We have not been provided with details
on the demise or boundaries not under ownership. The gross area boundaries can be found on the previous
plan, demarcated in purple.

In addition, we are advised that the total land area owned by the Company is subject to a further deduction
pursuant to Prime Minister decree number 1702/2010, expropriating an area of four feddans for the works
required to convert the Cairo/Alexandria Road to a freeway. We are advised that this decree has not been
enforced and was waived by the Roads and Bridges Authority; however, the decree was not amended or
repealed. Accordingly, we are advised that the land is legally expropriated for public use at this date.

Currently scrub lands, the land plots forming the subject property have no construction in place at present,
with the exception of a small structure at the entrance of Plot Two. The land is fully paved and does not
require any site grading works.

4.1.3 Development Plan


We understand that the Company is currently seeking to purchase the land plots currently owned by Dalia
Family. If purchased there are plans to develop a mixed-use scheme comprising retail, residential, hospitality
and entertainment uses, should planning permission be granted for a change of use from agricultural and
industrial storage to mixed-use. At present, however, planning permission has not been granted. The
planning permission and legal rationing of the land status will be subject to additional costs due to
Government agencies.

4.1.4 Site
The subject property comprises three elements forming an irregular shaped site with approximate individual
areas as follows:

Plot Current Permitted Use Gross Land Area Deductions Net Land Area
(sq m) (sq m) (sq m)
Plot One Industrial Storage 244,790 (18,750) 226,040

Total Area Deduction N/A N/A (18,550) (18,550)
Total 681,940 (98,650) 583,290

4.1.5 Environmental Matters


We have been instructed not to make any investigations in relation to the presence or potential presence of
contamination in land or buildings, and to make an Assumption that if investigations were made to an
appropriate extent then nothing would be discovered sufficient to affect value. We have not carried out any
investigation into past uses, either of the property or any adjacent land, to establish whether there is any
potential for contamination from such uses or sites and have, therefore, made an Assumption that none
exists. Commensurate with our Assumptions set out above we have not made any allowance in the
valuation for any effect in respect of actual or potential contamination of land or buildings.

A-133
Emaar Misr for Development S.A.E.
Cairo Gate, Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road, Cairo, Egypt
Date of Report: 28 April 2015
Date of Valuation: 31 December 2014

In practice, purchasers in the property market do not make such an assumption about contamination and a
purchaser of the property may require appropriate investigations to be made so as to assess any risk before
completing a transaction.

We have no basis upon which to assess the reasonableness of this Assumption. If it were to prove invalid
then the value would fall by an unspecified amount.

4.1.6 Planning
We have not been provided with any planning documentation relating to the subject property and so, for
the purposes of this valuation, we have made the assumption that current or future development on site is
in compliance with any planning permissions issued by the Municipality.

We recommend that the planning permission is reviewed and verified by your solicitors.

4.1.7 Tenure
We have not been provided with a copy of the title deeds for the subject property. We have assumed that
the property is held freehold, free from rent charge, restriction as to use, title or occupation and free from
any other restriction which may affect value. It should be noted that planning permission and legal rationing
of the land status will be subject to additional costs due to Government agencies.

We recommend that the title deeds are reviewed and verified by your solicitors.

4.1.8 Tenancies
The subject property is vacant at present.

4.2 VALUATION APPROACH

4.2.1 Valuation Methodology


In formulating our opinion of Market Value, DTZ has employed the comparable method of valuation. The
comparable method of valuation is deemed an appropriate method for determining the value of raw land
plots.

Having regards to comparable transactions across the Greater Cairo Area, we have applied individual land
rates to the net areas of the individual plots, based upon the planning permissions currently in place. Given
the location of the subject property and the surrounding mixed-use developments, namely Dandy Mall, Park
Avenue Mall and Smart City, we would assume that a change of use to mixed-use would likely be granted
over the entire site. We are of the opinion that a potential purchaser would take this into account when
making a purchase decision. The additional costs that the Company estimates to be paid to the
Governmental/Regulatory authorities in connection with obtaining planning permission for a mixed-use
development is estimated at EGP 450 per sq m, to be repaid over a period of eight years. In our opinion, a
conversion cost of EGP 450 per sq m seems extremely high. We would expect them to be in the region of
5.00% of land value. Given the uncertainty surrounding the designation of the various land plots our opinion
of Market Value is stated gross of any planning costs there might be.
