Risk Disclosure

Risk Disclosure Statement

Important — Please read carefully. This document describes material risks associated with our Rental Income Sharing and Fractional Ownership program.

Important Notice

Participation in the Company's Rental Income Sharing and Fractional Ownership program involves material risks. This document describes foreseeable risks and uncertainties that may affect property performance, rental income, capital recovery and the timing of distributions. It is intended to give a full and balanced view of those risks so potential investors and customers can make an informed decision.

Detailed Risk Analysis

1. Market Risk (Demand & Pricing)

What it is:

Rental rates and occupancy depend on local demand, macroeconomic conditions, tourism/business travel, and competitive supply.

Why it matters:

A fall in local demand or an oversupply of comparable listings may lower achievable daily/monthly rates or lengthen vacancy periods.

Example:

A new hotel or serviced-apartment cluster opens near a portfolio property and reduces average daily rates by 20%.

Mitigation:

We target high-demand micro-locations, actively monitor market comps, and adjust pricing strategies. However, price declines directly reduce distributable income.

Investor action:

Expect variable returns tied to market cycles; do not assume historical yields will repeat.

2. Occupancy and Vacancy Risk

What it is:

Periods with low bookings (seasonal downturns, off-peak months, long gaps between guests).

Why it matters:

Reduced occupancy means lower gross receipts and may result in zero or reduced payouts after expenses.

Example:

Covid-style travel restrictions or local events being canceled lead to extended low occupancy.

Mitigation:

Diversifying property types, listing across multiple platforms, maintaining a marketing reserve, and offering flexible long-stay options. Nevertheless, prolonged vacancies can exhaust reserves and delay distributions.

3. Regulatory, Legal & Compliance Risk

What it is:

Changes in municipal by-laws, state or central regulations, taxation rules, short-term rental licensing, or zoning that affect operation or income.

Why it matters:

New restrictions or licensing costs can force temporary closure, reduce nights available for rent, or increase compliance costs.

Example:

A municipal ban on short-term rentals in a city district.

Mitigation:

We maintain legal counsel, register required licenses where possible, and structure contracts to adapt. Regulatory changes can still materially impair income or require operational adjustments.

4. Platform & Channel Dependency Risk

What it is:

Dependence on third-party platforms (Airbnb, Booking.com, OYO etc.) for visibility and bookings. Platform policy changes, fee increases, or delisting can reduce net income.

Why it matters:

Platform algorithm changes or higher commissions reduce net rental yield.

Example:

A platform increases commission or changes search ranking rules, reducing bookings.

Mitigation:

Multi-channel distribution, direct booking efforts, and proprietary marketing. Still, platform dependence remains a risk that can materially affect revenue.

5. Operational & Management Risk

What it is:

Failures in day-to-day management—poor guest experiences, inadequate cleaning, maintenance delays, supplier failures, staff issues.

Why it matters:

Poor operations reduce guest ratings and bookings; emergency repair costs can be large.

Example:

Major AC failure in peak season requiring expensive replacement and loss of bookings.

Mitigation:

Standardized SOPs, vetted vendors, maintenance reserves, insurance where applicable, and ongoing audits. Operational failures may still occur and affect income or require additional capital.

6. Maintenance, Capex & Unforeseen Repair Costs

What it is:

Properties require ongoing capex (furniture replacement, deep refurbishments) and occasional major repairs (plumbing, electrical, structural).

Why it matters:

Large capital outlays reduce distributable cash and may require calls on reserves or capital.

Example:

Structural repairs after discovering water damage during refurbishment.

Mitigation:

A planned reserve for capex and preventive maintenance; however, extraordinary repairs can exceed reserves and delay rentals.

7. Insurance & Liability Risk

What it is:

Insurance may not cover all loss types or may be expensive; claims may be disputed. Liability exposures (guest injury, third-party claims) can create financial and reputational risk.

Why it matters:

Gaps in coverage could leave the Company or investors exposed to losses.

Example:

Guest injury in a property leading to claim costs in excess of policy limits.

Mitigation:

Maintain commercially reasonable insurance cover for property damage, public liability and business interruption where available. Insurance limitations may still leave residual risk.

Risk Management & Mitigation Practices

While the above list outlines risks, the Company follows these mitigation practices:

  1. Conservative Underwriting: strict due diligence, market feasibility and revenue stress testing prior to onboarding properties.
  2. Reserves: maintenance, capex and vacancy reserves to smooth distributions. Reserve levels are set in the Agreement.
  3. Insurance: property, liability and where available business interruption insurance. Insurance limits apply.
  4. Diversification: across geographies, property types and platforms to reduce concentration.
  5. Robust Operations: SOPs, vetted vendors, regular audits and on-ground property managers.
  6. Transparent Reporting: periodic statements showing gross revenue, deductions, reserves and net distributable amounts.
  7. Strict KYC/AML: investor onboarding with verification and source-of-fund checks.
  8. Legal Oversight: ongoing legal counsel for regulatory, contract and title matters.
  9. Conservative Payout Policy: company may hold back distributions if doing so protects long-term capital and investor value.

Investor Acknowledgement & Suggested Due Diligence
