Restoration Projects The Ultimate Portfolio also contains a unique valuable assembly of traditional stone buildings for restoration. Beyond the aesthetic attributes, the attractiveness of this asset class also relates to the embedded planning status and certain tax advantages.

In general, Master Plan Approval for the majority of these zoned projects is anticipated within the next 1-12 months. In addition to the planning status provided by the existing structure, the zoning status of a number of the projects allows for significant Pre-Zoned Acquisition Opportunities Ultimate Montenegro has a substantial active land pipeline of pre-zoned acquisition opportunities with a total land area in excess of 1 million m2 (representing a potential GDA of more than 250,000 m2 of build). A number of these assets will be re-zoned to achieve Development Status within the next 12 months. In addition to this active pipeline, the portfolio has a significant Land Bank. The Land Bank assets are generally characterised as being at the very early stages of the zoning process, within approval cycle of 1-3 years. additional (complimentary) build density on the sites.

Why Invest In Montenegro?


Montenegro is a competitive and dynamic destination with the clear strategic objective of developing a sustainable tourism portfolio whilst protecting its dramatic and beautiful natural resources.
Virtuous Circle

Economic growth at 7-8% p.a., driven by Tourism demand (+15-20% p.a.). EU accession expected by 2014 (EU Funding & huge infrastructure upgrades). A massive EU funded infrastructure programme is already underway roads, airports, electricity, water. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) one of highest globally (per capita) Middle East & Russia most active current investors. A very favourable tax regime (Corp tax at 9%). Very low local exposure to the global credit crunch mortgages as % GDP at 2.2% (SEE av. 9.4%; EU av. 50%). Micro Re-branding as a luxury destination (Porto Montenegro, Four Seasons, Aman). Creation of development clusters as the key driver of the luxury growth model. Conservative zoning & planning framework, limiting overdevelopment. Structural advantage of a natural landscape that physically restricts the supply. Current market is characterised by strong demand but low supply of high-end product, creating potential investment opportunities with attractive risk-adjusted returns.

The Virtuous Circle Sustainable Growth Since the adoption of the Euro currency in 2002 and the ensuing independence from Serbia in 2006, Montenegro has aggressively pursued its twin policy goals of: 1. EU membership projected for 2014

(SAA signed Oct 2007). 2. Tourism growth re-branding as a luxury leisure destination (by growth, Montenegro is already ranked in the top 5 tourist destinations globally). A virtuous circle is now in place, underpinned by a significant programme of large scale infrastructure investment. The Development Landscape A Summary Macro Political and economic focus on the Tourism & Leisure sector. Stable macro-economy with strong budget stance and moderate public debt (S&P BB positive).

Coastal Portfolio

Coastal Portfolio
The Coastal Projects Portfolio comprises a diverse number of prime development zone locations along the length of the Adriatic Riviera from Lustica via Kotor Bay to Budva and beyond. The Portfolio is well positioned to take full advantage of the selective Tourism Development Strategy that Montenegro is actively pursuing. The most significant of the developments is Porto Montenegro (in association with the Four Seasons Group), the largest luxury/mega yacht marina on the eastern Mediterranean with over 700 berths. The Zoning and Master Plan Approval timelines also vary according to location, within a typical cycle of 3 months to 2 years. In general, the majority of the Ultimate Coastal sites are already zoned for development and are at an advanced stage of the Master Plan Approval process. As a consequence of the diverse coastal locations, together with the specific zoning characteristics of each site, the Coastal Projects Portfolio provides exposure to the full spectrum of market segments. The Portfolio is also positioned to benefit from the inevitable value-migration from the coastal frontline to the coastal hinterland (as witnessed along the South of France and Spain for example). The sites range from 1,000 m2 to over 200,000 m2.

Oak Village
Project Description
E80

A significant standalone restaurant will be developed in the largest of the village ruins. It is envisaged that the local community will become integrated with this regeneration process, providing fresh vegetable produce, traditional home-made cheeses, smoked hams, wines and the local grappa. Design & Construction The nature of the sloping site will result in a development which sits naturally within the landscape, giving the overall appearance of a traditional Mediterranean hillside village. Together with the use of traditional materials and characteristic architectural language, the rural authenticity and heritage of the development area will be maintained.

Oak Village is one of the largest and most dramatic development projects on the coast of Montenegro.

valley overlooking the Adriatic Coast, the Oak Village development site is a naturally framed amphitheatre. The natural topography is such that every part of the site provides exceptionally beautiful views towards the open sea, the famous Jaz beach and surrounding Lovcen mountains. The design of the site is inspired by the presence of a unique rural Montenegrin stone village (Zecevo Selo) perched high on the valley slopes. This picturesque authentic village will be restored to create a retail hub for the development, with a concentration of cafs, bars and shops.

Development Concept

A significant percentage of the terrain is agricultural terrace supported with stone dry walls. Much of the construction will be concentrated in these areas. The gradient of the slopes is between 16-35 degrees, but mostly below 20 degrees. The slope of the terrain allows for three storey buildings, with open views to all. The residential development will take the form of village clusters around communal pools and terraces.

Infrastructure & Transport Access The site is approximately a 10 km drive from the coast via the existing 3/4 lane Adriatic Highway, however 2 km as the crow flies. To facilitate the proper functioning of the new development, new local access roads will connect all parts of the site with the existing road and wider area.

Although the immediate district is not currently connected to mains water and waste, as part of the urbanization program of this designated zone, the local Municipality (Budva) is obliged to provide the necessary services and infrastructure appropriate to anticipated future demand. The development site is supplied by numerous

Mountain Portfolio

Mountain Portfolio
The terrain of Northern Montenegro is mountainous and the municipalities of Zabljak and Kolasin are considered to be the centres for Montenegros winter tourism. Snow fall is heavy here in the winter months but in summer the weather is glorious and these regions are perfect for those who enjoy the outdoors with challenging hiking and mountain-biking trails. The North of Montenegro also boasts the second largest canyon in the world. Access to both destinations will be greatly enhanced by new major road networks that are currently being built, providing direct, high speed connections with the coast and main airports. This infrastructure programme is the catalyst for rapid development and growth of these mountain regions. Ultimate Montenegro has significant land holdings in both regions. The new road network will also open up other beautiful areas of the Wild Montenegro interior, such as the Savnik Canyon (an Ultimate Montenegro asset).

Section Elevation Skadar Lake Development Concept A mixed use development including a 5-star Luxury Hotel and Spa, luxury villas and terraced houses. Infrastructure & Transport Access Access to the site is gained from an existing road along the northern edge of the site. New paved vehicular routes feed off this existing arterial into the development. The new roads culminate in private driveways for each residential unit and outdoor parking courts and basement parking for the Hotel and Spa. The development site is supplied by numerous natural water sources. The regulation of the water supply will be facilitated by capturing the natural water at source and storing it in strategic reservoirs above the development. To maintain the availability of sufficient potable water, a rainwater harvesting system will be used for grey water systems, maintenance of swimming pools and landscape irrigation. 36 37 The development density of the site has been limited to 19%, which reflects the aim to minimise ecological impact. Furthermore, the introduction of planted roofs over the terrace houses and hotel building will substantially reduce the built impact of the development on the site, with green roofs covering more than half the development on the site. Environmental & Sustainable Development The proposed development is set within a well established wooded valley. It is imperative, within this setting, to retain as much of the existing landscape, trees and bio-diversity as possible. Minimal cutting of trees is foreseen, with the luxury villas positioned where possible around existing trees.
