CGP Advantages

We help you make your project bankable

The Capstone Global Partners team brings to bear on the needs of their clients the experience derived from their involvement in project funding for over twenty years. Many, if not most well designed projects can be funded.

The terrible truth is that most are never funded, losing their creators and investors incalculable time, energy and capital.

The terrible reasons for failure fall into many subcategories of the same primary reason: project designers irrationally believe that they know how to “package” their



project so that it is complete and appealing to funding sources, then attempt to “shop” it around the world through any venue, contact or other avenue to get the “best deal”.

The truth is that the project has usually never been formally prepared. We see projects every day that contain an executive summary, maybe a business plan with projections and sometimes an investment package put together by their local attorney. Capstone, like most other entities engaged in the advisory business, take very little time promoting such ill-prepared projects. We prefer to review the applicants that are most serious (and consequently have the highest likelihood of success) and are most receptive to expert-level advice regarding project preparation and potential submission to accepting sources. Our goal, every day, is to educate project developers on the current state of the capital markets, the requirements that bonafide funding sources have in place, and the process to position the project for successful funding.

Introduction/Facilitation

Capstone Global Partners can show you how it’s done, direct you to the proper provider of services to properly prepare and package, then gain your project admittance to an excellent source of private funding. Once completed, we will contact the appropriate funding source in our portfolio of relationships, discuss the project and, if there’s interest, prepare it for formal submission. We represent you and the project through every step of financial due diligence, underwriting, legal and facilitate the execution of all details leading to closing.

CGP has revolutionized and simplified this process.

We remove the obstacles by:

• Eliminating the need for government to “go it alone” in project development• Removing the requirement for equity and large out of pocket upfront investment• Referring 'best in class” consultants to properly prepare the project • Bypassing the need for time consuming indecision• Making capital available in as little as 60-90 days from application and approval• Removing limitations of the amount of financing from bonding capacity limits• Eliminating concerns related to long term finance costs and interest rate

fluctuations• Referring the “best in class” constructors/suppliers, etc.• Acting in concert with the government's needs and desires.



The CGP Solution

Our method allows government to get more projects well-constructed and funded, while not having to put large sums at risk. Associated project development costs can include feasibility studies, architect fees, engineering fees, and consultant costs, all of which can be combined into one fee structure that can be recovered at fund disbursement and used for the next project preparation.

A PRUDENT TREASURY MANAGEMENT TOOL

FlexibilityThe combination of low cost equity, together with more efficient and streamlined leverage strategies, comprise the key components of cost effectively developing, acquiring and controlling energy assets. We are committed to combining those efficiencies with lease structures that provide immediate lower opportunity costs. Opportunity costs arise from stringent and inflexible financing arrangements that result in lower corporate profitability potential and greater liability.

Lower Cost of CapitalCGP developed an efficient and below market capital structure which we pass on to our customers by helping them to reduce cost of capital and controlling critical operational assets without the normal equity requirements and reduction in restrictions and covenants typically associated with borrowing. We can deploy a Government's Sovereign Guarantee and structure good projects using the guarantee for an attractive market interest rate and favorable structures.

Sound Treasury ManagementFundamentally, our approach is to remove hurdles and obstacles of financing through providing the preliminary planning and structure which will be most advantageous the the proposed project's structure and suitable for the developer/operator.

Properly executed transactions can:• Provide the greatest benefit for the government and the people• Provide longer-term fixed cost capital than is available from traditional debt

sources• Provide a finished, functioning project in far less time and with far less risk than

comparable scenarios• Provides the government ministry with a trusted partner that can consistently

perform, thus streamlining activities, minimizing excessive time spent on



projects and allowing government the ability to do many more projects in shorter period of time

Sample Project/Asset Types:• Administration or municipal buildings; courthouses, correctional facilities, city

halls, community centers, parking structures and others• Convention centers or tourism related developments• Sporting venues• Hospitals and healthcare facilities (profit and non-profit)• Economic development focused Initiatives that involve real estate or other asset

development needs• Airports and public transportation• Infrastructure, public works and utilities, energy, water, sewer, etc.• Public housing• Universities and colleges, as well as, all types of academic related facilities• Hotels• Energy• Agriculture• Ports/Shipping• Railroads• Many, many more sectors.

Conclusion

The period of financial instability and transition in the commercial banking, equities markets and, indeed, all capital markets, proves what most people in the industry know all too well; the conventional sources of capital and traditional methods and multiples are simply not available for new or structured ventures.

The conclusion we have drawn is that rated, certified, collateralize structured finance is the most cost-effective and high probability method to raise capital for projects today. CGP has strong relationships, methods and networks in place to provide the project owner a "Bankable" project, one that will likely be in position to be the recipient of affordable and attractive 100% financing that will facilitate the most positive outcomes possible. CGP is seeking serious, intelligent project owners and governments who are sick and tired of the status quo and are looking for a better way. We can highly recommend our proprietary path to success.

Please remember: any good and meaningful project can be funded and built to perform if developed properly.



CGP and its partners stand ready to assist governments to implement Government obuilt, owned and managed projects as well as Public Private Partnerships and privatization programs using the unique preparation model we have developed.
