Objectives and Rationale for Capital Increase<br />
<strong>TPARK</strong> Logistics Property Fund (the “Fund”) has been set up under the objectives to<br />
mobilize funds for purchase or lease of immovable properties and to reap benefits for generating<br />
income and returns for the Fund and the unitholders.<br />
To fulfill the above objectives, BBL Asset Management Co., Ltd. (the “Management<br />
Company”) as the manager of the Fund, plans to increase the Fund’s capital through the issue<br />
of additional investment units for offering to unitholders and investors. Proceeds derived thereon<br />
would be used to purchase lands and leased buildings comprising 3 warehouses (12 units) from<br />
TICON Logistics Park Company Limited (the “Additional Properties”). The Management Company<br />
believes that the capital increase for acquiring such land and buildings will render benefits for the<br />
Fund and unitholders as follows:<br />
1. Increase in projected dividend per unit<br />
The Management Company expects that the Fund will be able to gain benefits and income<br />
from its investment in the additional immovable properties, thereby leading to higher returns in the<br />
form of dividend per unit for unitholders.<br />
According to the projection of the Management Company for the quarterly accounting<br />
period ending 31 December 2011 and the accounting period from 1 January 2012 to 30 September<br />
2012, the expected dividend per unit to be received by the unitholders will be higher than the<br />
expected dividend per unit from the existing properties before the capital increase plan in the<br />
corresponding accounting periods.<br />
2. Trading liquidity of investment units may increase<br />
The issuance and offering of additional investment units will increase the number of<br />
investment units issued and offered by the Fund, from the current level of 153,300,000 units to<br />
the total number of not exceeding 248,300,000 units (through issuance and offering of investment<br />
units of not exceeding 95,000,000 units). The Management Company expects that an increase<br />
in investment units will increase trading liquidity of investment units of the Fund on the Stock<br />
Exchange of Thailand.<br />
3. Enhance potentials of immovable properties invested by the <strong>FUND</strong><br />
All of the warehouses for lease to be purchased by the Fund are located in TICON<br />
Logistics Park Bangna Project, Chachoengsao province and TICON Logistics Park Laemchabang,<br />
Chonburi province not far away from Bangkok, together with accesses to various transportation<br />
modes, the details of those additional immovable properties to be invested in by the Fund are<br />
provided in the Attachment 2 Additionally, TICON Industrial Connection Public Company Limited<br />
as the seller of the immovable properties to be sold to the Fund and the property manager, is a<br />
renowned and experienced company in construction, development and management of quality<br />
industrial factory and warehouses for lease which has been acknowledged. These are key factors,<br />
which will enhance potentials of immovable properties invested by the Fund to both attractiveness<br />
to the lessees to lease the warehouses and the rentals will be set at competitive levels.<br />
In addition, Thailand still possesses sound of logistics potential to become a major<br />
industrial base of Asia. Contributing factors include acceptable labor quality, competitive wages,<br />
and being the transportation center to other neighboring countries in the region. These will<br />
