We are hitting the ground running in 2016, successfully having completed complete construction approval in Tulasi Mandir Spa and Hotel as well as Hotel Santo Cristo de Pariaguan in 2015.  We are in advanced negotiations with banks regarding construction approval for both these projects.  We fully expect to begin construction on these 2 projects within the next 4 months or so.  Additionally, we will begin a very aggressive marketing campaign for our Telmo & Tango Buenos Aires apart-hotel project.  We expect this project to sell very well particularly since with recent political shifts in Argentina will bring more private investment and renewed interest in Buenos Aires real estate. 

In continuation, here is an update on our projects and investment highlights:

Tulasi Mandir Hotel and Spa: Final construction approval was received in December 2015.  Additionally, the Company has successfully acquired 60% of the property on this project.  This is a 28-unit ultra-luxury hotel and villa project located in Coche Island, Venezuela.  It is a high-end hotel and spa, aimed at more discerning clients.  It will attend an unserved high-end market in Coche Island.  We expect to charge $280-$350 per night, and have occupation rates above 70%.  The project is currently about 15% executed with full permits in place.  We are moving forward with construction loan requests with at least 3 banks and expect approval in the next 2-3 months or so, at which time we will begin construction inmmediately after approval.

Hotel Santo Cristo de Pariaguan: This is the company's first entrepreneurial hotel project.  Metrospaces originally acquired a 1/3 interest in this hotel project, however we are currently negotiating with partners to increase our stake 60%.  The project received final construction approval in December, and is now in the process of being reviewed by banks for construction loan approval.  We expect to begin construction in 1Q of 2016.  The hotel is a 122-room 4 star business hotel.  The hotel looks to take advantage of the vast lack of hotel infrastructure in the Orinoco Oil Belt formation.

It will have 32 lots of an average size of 45 hectares (112 acres) giving each owner a real sense of "land ownership" in one of the most beautiful getaway places on earth.  Additionally, the property will have an 8-room boutique hotel run and operated by renowned and prestigious luxury boutique hotel operator.  This hotel will be made mostly to provide concierge services to the estates, and for guests of our landowners.

Other investment highlights:

JV Agreement with Proideas (http://proideas.com.ar/): This JV agreement will allow Metrospaces a partnership with a very prominent private equity group in Argentina, just as the country begins a new economic shift to a more pro-market environment.  This partnership will bring not just new deal flow to the company, but more importantly will also bring in fresh financing for the company's current projects. 

JV Agreement with Prohotels of Argentina: In its refocusing of the company's business plan to hotel development, Metrospaces has executed a JV Agreement with Prohotels (http://www.prohotels.com/).  This partnership gears itself perfectly with the company's development and financing skills.  This agreement calls for the development of 4 new hotels in the coming 3 years.  It is a testament to our business plan execution. 

Other Projects: The Company will continue to make a strong focus on building a chain of hotels, aimed at niche markets.  In particular, we are looking at the possible acquisition of a 100% interest in another lot in the Orinoco Oil Belt region.  Additionally, we are in talks to acquire 2 operating hotels. 

Again, we want to thank all our new shareholders for taking an interest in our story and have given us the chance to be where we are at!  We will continue to work very hard to make your investment in our company a success, and have very high expectations for 2015 and beyond!
