  1. YUKON ASSET ADVISORS I Spring, 2011 STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

  2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • Yukon Asset Advisors I (“Yukon”) will acquire at deep discounts final non-appealable uncollected US based legal judgments, locate the judgment debtor’s secreted assets, and enforce and collect on those judgments. • Yukon will seek to purchase judgments with the following characteristics: • Judgment size: ranging from $5-75 million per judgment • Expected average recovery period per judgment of approximately 13 months • The management team of Yukon Asset Advisors I will be led by Juval Aviv, an internationally-renowned expert on security and asset location and recovery. Mr. Aviv is the founder and chairman of Interfor, Inc., a security consulting firm located in New York with offices and affiliates globally launched in 1979. • Yukon will retain Interfor to assist in identifying judgments, providing investigative services and working for legal counsel, to acquire the judgments, locate the secreted assets, enforce, and collect on these judgments. STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

  3. BACKGROUND • The judgment collection business is a fragmented yet pervasive business. While some detail of the terms of legal judgments are part of the public domain via court decisions, the pursuit and recovery of these assets are outside the public domain principally due to the desire on the part of the client (the judgment holder) and the client’s legal counsel to keep this information confidential. STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

  4. BACKGROUND • A typical process will include the following steps: • Identify a seasoned, final, non-appealable judgment or fine rendered by a court in the United States • Perform preliminary due diligence to determine the enforceability of the judgment and the likelihood that there are sufficient attachable assets to satisfy the judgment • Negotiate and purchase the judgment for pennies on the dollar • Investigate the location of secreted assets and freeze the assets with the support and assistance of local legal counsel • Negotiate a settlement of the judgment and/or collect the assets. If the assets are not in the form of cash or cash-equivalent securities, liquidate the assets and collect the cash. • Note: It may be a better risk/return profile for Yukon investors if some judgments are settled in a negotiated manner rather than prosecuted to their conclusion. STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

  15. DUE DILIGENCE FINDINGS ON INTERFOR AND THE JUDGMENT COLLECTION BUSINESS • Etico Capital, a Division of Halcyon Cabot Partners, has conducted preliminary due diligence on Interfor and Juval Aviv. Our review included a limited review of judgments that Interfor has worked on for clients, a discussion about both Interfor and Juval Aviv with a number of prominent law firms that regularly retain Interfor and Mr. Aviv to assist in judgment recovery, and a review of the judgment collection process. • Due to the confidential nature of judgment recoveries and the unwillingness of the owners of the judgments (the clients) or their legal counsel to disclose detail about recovery rates or levels, it is not completely feasible to systematically review the end result of the judgments that Interfor and Juval Aviv have worked on, on behalf of their clients. The client/attorneys that spoke to us generally agree that Interfor/Aviv have performed the search and recovery function very effectively and they would continue to use Interfor in the future.

Preliminary review suggests that this judgment can be purchased for approximately $100,000-$200,000 and a significant portion may be recoverable within the next 90-180 days. • Judgment 2: A $10 million judgment where Yukon believes the defendant, prior to fleeing the U.S. wired money abroad. Interfor investigators believe that these assets are traceable and can ultimately be recovered. • Judgment 3: A $7 million judgment where Yukon has already identified assets including real estate, inventory, factories and bank accounts.
