Property Offering

Executive Summary PROPERTY SUMMARY Colliers International Raleigh-Durham is pleased to offer for sale Joyner Marina, which is located in the heart of Carolina Beach, NC and is situated on ±5.58 acres with ±1.5 Acres of uplands and ±4.08 Acres of submerged area. Joyner Marina is being offered for a price of $2,900,000 which is less than half of the tax value. The property consists 69 wet slips, wooden bulkhead, 5 metal gang planks, water and electric hookups and 2 gas pumps, 1 of which is diesel. In addition, there is a 1,506 SF tackle shop/office with two residential apartments on the 2nd floor. Most notably, Joyner Marina is the only privately-owned marina in Carolina Beach that has a fuel dock. The bulkhead was replaced in 2007-2008 and the marina is protected with rock jetty, which is very rare. STRENGTHS AND OPPORTUNITIES As it is the only privately-owned marina in Carolina Beach with a fuel dock, Joyner Marina has incredible upside. For 2013, slip rentals were $133,000 & gas sales were $727,000. It is also unique in that it is a Green Certified Marina with a Certified Clean bottom. A savvy investor can capitalize on these internal strengths and maximize the current opportunities in the market. Due to recent regulations, there are significant barriers to entry for new construction of marinas. Also, the Boating Industry is growing. In 2013, the industry generated $36.7 billion in retail expenditures, a 3.2% increase from 2012. North Carolina is the 8th largest boating state in 2013 according to the National Marine Manufacturing Association. CAROLINA BEACH OVERVIEW The property is only a 2-mile walk to Carolina Beach Central Business District which has received numerous accolades in publications such as About.com, Trip Advisor, Budget Travel Magazine, and The Daily Meal. There is a strong seasonal population shift during the summer months. The Town of Carolina Beach has nearly 2,000 seasonal accommodation units. The peak population, those residing permanently and those visiting at least overnight, was estimated to be anywhere from 8,500 to a high of approximately 14,000 total town population during a typical summer period. An additional 3,600-4,500 day-trippers, those visiting just for one day and not staying overnight, can be expected during a peak summer day. WALKING DISTANCE TO MULTIPLE POINTS OF INTEREST In addition to its proximity to Carolina Beach s Central Business District, Joyner Marina is 3 blocks from the beach/swimming area which offers: Carolina Beach Fishing Pier, Pleasure Island, surfing, jet skiing, the North End-Freeman Park, Carolina Beach State Park, boating, fishing, scuba diving, island charters, yacht clubs, kayaking, and biking. Beach-goers are also attracted to the area because of Fort Fisher Aquarium and the USS North Carolina Battleship Memorial in Wilmington. JOYNER MARINA COLLIERS INTERNATIONAL P. 5

The top 10 states in sales of new powerboat, motor, trailer and accessories, the top ten boating states in 2013 are: 1. Florida: $1,957,381,303, up 16% (from 2012) 2. Texas: $1,176,972,535, down 2% 3. Michigan: $656,110,750, up 2% 4. Delaware: $574,322,347, up 19% 5. Minnesota: $557,268,790, up 1% 6. New York: $552,188,643, up 3% 7. Wisconsin: $518,942,061, 0% 8.

California: $431,696,279, up 18% SITE - BAA NATIONAL MARINE INDUSTRY OVERVIEW The National Marine Manufacturers Association today announced that the recreational boating industry saw healthy growth in 2013, generating $36.7 billion in retail expenditures (new and pre-owned boats and engines, trailers, accessories and services), a 3.2% increase from 2012. An estimated 166,800 new powerboats and sailboats were sold at retail in 2013, an increase of 2.2%, coming on the heels of the industry s 2012 rebound when new powerboat and sailboat retail sales increased 10.7% - the industry s first sign of recovery. The NMMA is anticipating continued momentum with an additional 5-7% increase in retail sales of new boats in 2014. The NMMA released these findings as part of its U.S. Recreational Boating Statistical Abstract, an annual collection of data and analysis on the state of the U.S. recreational boating industry being released June 1. As the nation s economic recovery matures and boating businesses prepare for summer, a peak selling season for recreational boats, accessories and services, we expect to see continued stable growth in sales, noted NMMA President Thom Dammrich. Following a year of inclement weather throughout the U.S. driving pent-up demand and Americans taking to the water in record numbers, the industry is primed for a busy selling season. Versatile boats leading recovery, driving industry innovation Ski and wakeboard boats, as well as fiberglass and aluminum outboard boats, led the industry s growth in 2013. Ski and wakeboard boats continue to grow in popularity, with an 11% increase in the number of new boats sold at retail in 2013 to 6,100 units; outboard boats (pontoons, fishing boats and small family cruisers) were the most popular type of new powerboat sold in 2013, comprising approximately 84% of the powerboat market and up 5% to 134,800 units. Additionally, the personal watercraft (PWC) category increased 2% compared to 2012 with 39,400 new craft sold at retail; and inboard cruisers leapt in retail sales 10% compared to the previous year with 2,200 new units sold in 2013. What s more, 2013 was the first time since pre-recession (2009) that the ratio of pre-owned boat to new boat sales decreased, indicating a shift in consumer demand for new boats. In 2013, we saw more manufacturers producing innovative boats that offer an entry into the boating lifestyle at a variety of price points. A trend in boat manufacturing is the versatile boat one that can pull tubers or wake boarders, be used for fishing outings, relaxing with the family or entertaining, noted Dammrich. We re seeing manufacturers shift their manufacturing processes, becoming leaner and more efficient, to be able to offer these innovative boats at a lower cost, in turn introducing more people to boating. Across the board, the boating industry recognizes the demand of the 88.5 million Americans who go boating and want to own a boat of their own and pass their water gene on to future generations.

Wilmington, NC MARKET OVERVIEW Nestled between the Cape Fear River and Atlantic Ocean, Wilmington, North Carolina strikes an enviable balance between a casual lifestyle and global business opportunities. Entrepreneurial zeal permeates every facet of the community, giving it the vibrancy of a city of much larger in size, with the ease of living found in a small town. With the state s largest National Register Historic District, Wilmington has a keen sense of tradition and preservation, as well as a need to push beyond the conventional. The city leverages this balance to attract global corporations like GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy, Verizon Wireless, PPD and Corning. Businesses large and small fall in love with the historic charm, quality of life, big-city amenities and skilled workforce. Wilmington offers a life filled with balance and vibrancy by offering a vast amount of activities including kayaking, antiquing in a refurbished cotton market, golfing on a course designed by Jack Nicklaus, sailing the Atlantic, or working in an ideal community. AREA RECOGNITION Wilmington, NC makes the Relocate America s Top 100 Places to Live in 2010 which focused this year on communities poised for recovery and future growth. One of the 100 Best Arts Town Top 10 Recreation Cities Wilmington, NC makes Forbes magazine Best Places for Business and Careers, March 2009. Wilmington ranks #14 in Fortune Small Business Magazine s Best Places to Launch a Business. Coastal Living Magazine names Wilmington a Coastal Dream Town Wilmington NC ranked 7th most fun, affordable city in Bloomberg Businessweek Wilmington NC ranked 6th in Outside Magazine s Best Towns list October 2011; From the magazine, Similar to Charleston: southern charm, a 300-year-old harbor, ample seafood. But what sets Wilmington (pop. 106,500) apart from its genteel South Carolina neighbor is an economy in overdrive not long ago, it was the second-fastestgrowing economy in the U.S. Thanks to EUE Screen Gems, it s also home to the largest motion-picture and television studio outside California. (The local film industry employs some 800 people.) Situated where the Cape Fear River meets the Atlantic, the former military port s recreation options are mostly water-based sea-kayaking, sailing, deap-sea fishing and the biggest party of the year is, naturally, Riverfest, a frenzy of vendors, fireworks, music, athletic competitions, and invading pirates. -Outside Magazine *Source: Wilmington Chamber of Commerce; Outside magazine JOYNER MARINA COLLIERS INTERNATIONAL P. 19
