3. BRICKS is a General Partner Investment trust for the
acquisition, purchase, construction, rental and
administration of a broad range of commercial prop-
erties in Mexico as well as the United States.

4. CORPORATE
PRESENTATION

5. Bricks Asset Management LLC. was
created in response to the need for a
diversified and well-managed real
estate portfolio in the United States
on behalf of Latin American investors,
with a particular focus on the southeast
region that includes Florida, Georgia
and Texas.
WHAT IS BRICKS?

6. Bricks specializes in commercial real
estate equity investments. We only
invest in stabilized properties with
long-term contracts, with NNN-
type tenants that pay property tax,
building insurance and major and
minor maintenance, with a minimum
lease term of five years.
WHAT TYPE OF INVESTMENTS
DOES BRICKS HANDLE?

7. Tenants with a B investment grade
rating as per Standard & Poor's or
superior. The prices of the properties
we acquire range from US$1.500.000 to
US$20.000.000.
WHAT TYPE OF TENANTS DOES
BRICKS LOOK FOR?

8. The term of our investments is a
minimum of ten years and a
maximum of 20, to be sold on the final
year of the investment, except in cases
where partners wish to continue receiv-
ing rents on the property in question.
Should this be the case, the contract
with Bricks is simply extended.
WHAT IS THE TERM OF
INVESTMENTS?

9. Bricks Asset Management LLC is
responsible for the administration
of the property in each case and is
contracted for such a purpose for the
duration of the investment.
Its responsibilities include:
-Financial analysis.
-Physical and environmental analysis.
-Seeking out of property acquisition
debt.
-Charging rents.
-Handling the relationship with tenants.
-Paying suppliers and property taxes.
-Support with the legal, tax and
accounting structures of our investors.
WHO ADMINISTRATES?

10. Bricks Asset Management LLC charges
three fees:
-3% of the value of the property,
payable upon purchase.
-Between 10% and 20% of the free cash
flow of rents, depending on the
complexity involved in the administra-
tion of the property.
-10% of the sinking funds and capital
gains of the property.
WHAT FEES DOES BRICKS
CHARGE?

11. Our properties are purchased with a
70% debt on the acquisition cost. This is
desirable because the debt is paid by
the rents. Bricks Asset Management
LLC endorses the debt, thus achieving:
A greater return on the principal invest-
ment and important earnings, since at
the time of sale, 60% of the property is
paid for, while only 30% was paid for at
the onset of the investment.
WHY ARE THE PROPERTIES
ALWAYS PURCHASED WITH
DEBT?

12. WHAT IS THE LEGAL
STRUCTURE OF THE INVESTMENT?
In order to secure the most efficient tax
structure for our investors, a Limited
Liability Company is created.
For example: Bricks 1 LLC.
This company is the property owner
and purchase mortgage debtor, as well
as the contractor of administration
services.
The investor owns stocks in the
company and pays taxes as per the
legal personality of the investor, as
advised by Bricks on the best fiscal
strategy.

13. NO. All of the funds that we operate
with are deposited in the escrow with
the attorneys handling the property
deed.
In the United States, the principal, debt
and other expenses related to the
operation are deposited in said account
and the issuer of the deed is responsi-
ble for payment to all involved parties.
Bricks is only able to charge the respec-
tive fees as per the administration
contract.
DOES BRICKS ASSET
MANAGEMENT LLC RECEIVE
MONEY FROM INVESTORS?

14. In the United States, all property
deeds are issued by attorneys
licensed for the issuing of deeds,
and property deeds are insured thus
that the insurance company pays the
investor for the amount used to
purchase the property, should any
ownership problems arise.
LEGAL CERTAINTY

15. On a monthly basis or by quarter.
HOW OFTEN WILL I RECIEVE
MY RENTS?

16. In the United States, the investor
must be a natural or legal person,
whether national or foreign, and
must file an annual tax statement and,
depending on the earnings received,
will be subject to taxation.
It is important to note that, if the invest-
ment is made by a natural person, he or
she will pay a 40% inheritance tax in
case of death. This is why it is important
for the investment to be made by a
legal person, which will lower the tax
to 20% at the end of the investment,
and thus eliminate the risk of paying
inheritance tax.
WHAT ARE MY RESPONSIBILITIES
REGARDING U.S. TAXES?

17. NO. These investments are not regis-
tered in any securities exchange, nor
with the S.E.C.
ARE THESE INVESTMENTS
REGULATED BY UNITED
STATES FEDERAL SECURITIES

18. YES, Bricks first offers its partners the
shares being sold by the investor. If
none wish to purchase, Bricks will offer
the shares to external investors, with a
commission of 5%.
If the investor sells on his or her own, no
cost is incurred. It is only required that
Bricks be notifies so as to prepare the
necessary documents
CAN I SELL MY BRICKS
SHARES?

19. Even the safest investment carries a
certain degree of risk.
The specific risk regarding Bricks, is that
the rental contract may not be reno-
vated, or that the tenant declares bank-
ruptcy. Given that this is the worst-case
scenario, your investment will be
backed by a property.
WHAT RISKS DO I RUN BY
INVESTING IN BRICKS?

20. The returns vary according to the type
of property, the risk in regard to tenants
and the term of the contract.
IRR between 9% to 15%.
