FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

 General and administration costs: Savings in general and administrative expenses, which declined from $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2013 to $0.7 million in the second quarter of

2014 arising from recent management changes and lower transactional‐driven costs.

 Same‐property analysis: On a same‐property basis, NOI was $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2013. NOI increased as a result of an early termination fee of $0.3 million, as well as lower common area maintenance costs and bad debt expense, slightly offset by higher ground lease rent.

 FFO: FFO increased to $3.1 million ($0.31 per share) in the current quarter from $2.5 million ($0.23 per share) in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in FFO relative to the second quarter of 2013 is due to higher net operating income, as well as lower general and administration costs. These items were partially offset by lower finance income as vendor take‐ back loans were repaid, higher property management expenses, and a decrease in the share of FFO from investments in FAM REIT and joint venture.

 Interest coverage: Strong improvement in interest coverage from 2.5x to 3.2x due to improvement in EBITDA of almost $1.0 million and decreasing interest costs as mortgages are repaid.

OPERATIONS:

 Management fees platform: Management platform generated $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2013. Management fee revenue included acquisition‐related fees of $0.1 million for the second quarter of 2014 and

$0.4 million for the second quarter of 2013. Excluding acquisition‐related fees, management fee revenue increased by $0.1 million in the current quarter as a result of the growth in the FAM REIT portfolio.

 Leasing activity: During the quarter, management has received leasing commitments for 13,000 sf that have a weighted average lease term of seven years, which represent $0.1 million in incremental annual net operating income. Year to date, total leasing commitments amount to

136,000 sf that have a weighted average lease term of 13 years, which represent $0.8 million in incremental annual net operating income.

STRATEGIC UPDATE:

 On August 12, 2014, Huntingdon announced that it has entered into an arrangement agreement ("Arrangement Agreement") with Slate. Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, Slate will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Huntingdon for consideration of

$13.25 in cash per common share and a one‐time $0.15 per common share special dividend.

Slate will also acquire all unexercised common share purchase warrants of Huntingdon for consideration equal to $13.25 in cash less the exercise price for the common share purchase warrants. The transaction is expected to close on or before October 22, 2014, subject to customary conditions. These conditions include approval by greater than two‐thirds of the holders of Huntingdon common shares and warrants, voting together as a class, minority shareholder approval, and the receipt of court and necessary regulatory approvals.

 On August 12, 2014, Huntingdon also announced that it has declared a special cash distribution of $0.15 per common share. The record date for this special dividend will be August 22, 2014, with a payment date of August 29, 2014. The dividend will be considered an eligible dividend for tax purposes. Upon payment of the $0.15 per common share special cash distribution and the September 2014 dividend of $0.02 per Common Share that was previously declared, Huntingdon's regular monthly dividend payments will cease.

 On August 12, 2014, Huntingdon sold the Vancouver Air Cargo Portfolio to the Vancouver Airport Authority ("VAA"). Gross sale proceeds are $39.5 million based on the terms of the agreements. Gross sale proceeds to Huntingdon amount to $37.3 million after accounting for the 50% managing interest in one of the properties. Huntingdon realized net cash proceeds of approximately $16.3 million after taking into account mortgage repayments of $19.9 million and estimated transaction costs of $1.1 million. Following closing of the transaction, Huntingdon will be retained as a manager of the Vancouver Air Cargo Portfolio on a transitionary basis to assist the VAA with internalizing management.

 With the sale of the Air Cargo Portfolio, Huntingdon has approximately $52.3 million in cash.

OUTLOOK:

Sandeep Manak, President and CEO noted, "The two recent major transactions have affirmed the compelling value of Huntingdon's management platform and dedicated team. I am privileged to have the opportunity to work with a talented and hard‐working committed team, who embodies an entrepreneurial spirit and the drive to grow shareholder value. The stabilization outlook for the investment property portfolio continues at a steady pace. Management is focused on assets that can be re‐positioned and where there is sufficient market liquidity such that attractive valuations can be realized. Leasing momentum across the Corporation was strong with year‐to‐date leasing commitments of 136,000 sf that have a weighted average lease term of 13 years, which represent $0.8 million in incremental annual net operating income."
