Confidential EXECUTIVE INVESTMENT SUMMARY 10180 EAST COLFAX AVENUE AURORA, COLORADO PREPARED BY: Brian Watson Founder and President Version 7.03 1225 Seventeenth Street • Suite 1860 • Denver, Colorado 80202 303.893.9500 Telephone • 303-893.9505 Facsimile • www.northstarcp.com THE OPPORTUNITY Northstar Commercial Partners (“Northstar”) is seeking equity partners for a ±56,281 SF showroom/retail building that it owns on ±1.03 acres at 10180 E. Colfax Avenue, Aurora, Colorado 80010 (the “Property”). It has already found a lending partner to finance new debt on the investment, and provide the necessary capital to refinance the asset and secure a construction line of credit to build out the space for the tenant. Northstar secured a long-term tenant for the entire premises under a 15-year Master Lease, which immediately added significant value to the investment. Additionally, due to the nature of the tenant’s use, the lease-up adds intangible value to its surrounding community and its members. The ownership entity for this investment is: 10180 E. Colfax, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the “LLC” or “Company”). THE PROPERTY 10180 E. Colfax totals ±56,281 SF in three stories, consisting of a main ground floor showroom with ±26,504 SF, a 2nd story retail/mezzanine space with ±14,994 SF, and an unfinished 3rd floor that totals ±14,783 SF with an upper mechanical penthouse. The Property sits on ±1.03 acres, which is comprised of two separate lots with ±0.64 acres in Lot 1 (improved) and ±0.39 acres in Lot 2 (parking). It offers 119 feet on Colfax Avenue, the main street that runs west-east through the Denver-Aurora metropolitan area, and the longest commercial street in the USA running 26 miles total. The frontage on Colfax Avenue offers high traffic counts with ±31,899 cars/day at Colfax west of Havana, and ±4,870 cars/day at Del Mar Parkway just south of Colfax. Its proximity to downtown Denver (6.3 miles) creates numerous options for public transit, and RTD bus stops for Line 15 are within a one minute walk. The Property is situated in a City of Aurora urban renewal area (Fletcher Plaza), which is considered a historic center of original Aurora. Its flexible commercial zoning of B-2 (downtown business) in Arapahoe County allows for many permitted uses including, but not limited to: retail, office, indoor, recreational facilities, meeting, banquet and conference facilities, medical clinics, pawn brokers and art spaces. The Property was built in 1952 and fully renovated in 2005, and has been consistently leased through the years. It was formerly occupied by the American based national department store chain JC Penney through the late 1970’s, Aaron’s Office Products in the 1980’s, Sonshine Furniture in the 1990’s, and the Broyhill Home Collection furniture store until it became vacant in 2012. Executive Investment Summary for 10180 E. Colfax, LLC Page 2 of 21 Pre-Acquisition Photo of Property Architect’s Rendering of New Façade with Tenant THE TENANT Northstar has executed a 15-year Master Lease with one tenant for 100% of the Property. This tenant is a Colorado based company inspired by the leadership of the Denver-based African community. It will provide a multipurpose building with spaces that can be rented to community members to gather, and start or run their own businesses. AfrikMall, Inc. (the “Tenant”) will oversee the operations of the building, with its main revenue generation coming from rental income for reconfigurable event rental spaces, conference rooms, offices, shops and restaurants. To date, they have finalized lease agreements with 23 tenants, who will lease space from AfrikMall, Inc. The mission of AfrikMall, Inc. is unique. In addition to providing affordable rental, office and event spaces to community members, it will also add to the diversity of cultural programs in Central Aurora and East Denver. By offering a wide range of events, it can unite the community with African cultural entertainment that will bring Africans, as well as admirers and students of African culture, together. Executive Investment Summary for 10180 E. Colfax, LLC Page 3 of 21 The Aurora, Colorado market has a large African and African American community of over 100,000 people, with an increasing need for conference facilities. According to the 2010 census, the number of African immigrants in the Denver metro area rose from approximately 9,763 in 2000 to over 40,000 in 2010. This significant rise of ±150% in African population over 10 years is directly related to the increase in the number of African businesses and activities. There is a need for a facility large enough to provide adequate space for African events, and Northstar is confident that the location and size of the Property is ideal for this use. The positive response from media contacts has been overwhelmingly supportive and interested in the development of the AfrikMall concept. RENT ROLL The Tenant, AfrikMall, is 100% reliable for covering the Master Lease obligations for the entire Property as the Master Tenant on a 15-year lease. The Master Lease has personal guaranties from five (5) of the founders, with a $52,806.82 security deposit. The Master Tenant will be fully responsible for managing and collecting rents for 100% of the Property. The following is an overview of the types of tenants that the Master Tenant has secured.
