Homeowner(s) Toronto Standard Condominium Corporation No. 1577 Suite «ADDRESS» 5229 Dundas St. West, Etobicoke, Ontario M9B 6L9 November 30, 2011 Dear Owner(s): Re: Operating Budget: January 1 December 31, 2012 The TSCC 1577 net operating budget prepared by your Board of Directors for the fiscal year January 1 to December 31, 2011 (Essex 1 tower costs, including proportionate share of the grounds and recreation centre costs shared with Essex 2 and the Shared Roadway/Walkway costs shared with Essex 2, Nuvo 1 and Nuvo 2) was $1,703,020, to be recovered by common element fees. Total net actual expenditures for 2011 are expected to be $1,670,167, $32,853 under budget. The Board has now approved a 2012 net operating budget in the amount of $1,752,329, a 2.9% increase over 2011 common element fees. This translates to an average fee increase of $17.56 per month per unit. The increase reflects underlying forecast inflation pressures of 3.0%, where applicable, and other major factors outlined on the following page. Please also see the attached pie chart views. Accordingly, your new monthly common element assessment for 2012 will be $ «AMOUNT» Currently, most owners take advantage of the Electronic Funds Transfer Program and the new monthly amount will automatically take effect January 1, 2012. We encourage the few owners who are still on the manual system to sign up for automatic payments. Please complete the enclosed form, attach a Void cheque and return both to the Management office by December 15, 2011. If you are currently on EFT there is no need to fill out a new form. If you still wish to use cheques, please provide the Management Office with twelve (12) post-dated cheques, dated the first (1st) day of each month from January 1, 2012 up to and including December 1, 2012. Please make your cheques payable to: TSCC No. 1577 with your suite number indicated on the top right corner, and submit them to the Management Office no later than December 15, 2011. Your prompt attention to this request will be greatly appreciated, and will ensure that the administration work for the new fiscal year can be completed on schedule. Respectfully, Fred Reichl, on behalf of the TSCC 1577 Board of Directors 2012 budget cover letter v6 16 November 2011

Budget Notes: 2012 TSCC 1577 Operating Budget (Page 1 of 2) The 2.9% common element fee increase for 2012 is due to the following major factors. Utilities, (gas, electricity and water), at 29.5%, the largest category of expenditures of our total budget, will be up $26,500 (+1.56%) based on consumption experience, contracted and forecast price increases, consumption based on the average over the last two years of heating and cooling and reflecting continued savings from prior year energy conservation projects. We expect hydro electricity costs to be up $1,300 due to expected rate increases. Water costs will be up $14,650 reflecting continuation of a multi-year rate increase previously announced by the city and based on current consumption experience. We expect gas costs to be up $10,550 in 2012. We are benefiting from a very attractive multi year contract, effective November 1, 2010, negotiated through our agent Provident Energy Management. Maintenance & Service Contracts, which are 27.1% of our total budget, are up $22,493 (+1.31%) reflecting a 3.0% inflation increase and costs of more senior concierge staff. Reserve Fund (14.5% of our total budget) contribution will increase $6,918 (+0.41%) for the Essex 1 tower as mandated in the October 2010 Reserve Fund Study. This study was updated as per legislative requirements during 2010 to apply to the 2011, 2012 and 2013 Budgets. Essex Shared Facilities and Roadway/Walkway (17.7% of our total budget): Our proportionate shared of the Essex Shared Facilities and Shared Roadway/Walkway costs will be up $6.078, representing 0.36% of your total 2.9% increase. See details on the next page. Repairs and Maintenance (5.1% of our total budget) costs will decrease $1,909 (-0.11%) reflecting a 3.0% inflation increase offset by favourable contract negotiations with suppliers/contractors. Special Projects (0.6% of our total budget): Costs will be down $21,546 (1.27%) in 2012, as we plan to spend $9,675 to repaint all white suite doorframes with oil based paint to overcome spotting that has appeared over the last year or so. Operating Contingency Fund: We paid for our proportionate share ($29,852) of the garage lighting retrofit undertaken in mid 2011, and a regulatory mandated global machine guarding ($14,640) on elevators in the Essex 1 elevator room on the roof, leaving a balance of $103,843. Operating Surplus: We plan to apply $9.675 (-0.60%) of our operating surplus to offset 2012 expenses and help keep the fee increase to just 2.9%. Reserve Funds Summary: In 2012, the Essex 1 owners combined total contribution to the TSCC 1577 Tower, Essex Shared Facilities and Essex Shared Roadway/ Walkway Reserve Funds will be about 20% of total TSCC 1577 budget (about 14% for the Tower, 6% for the Shared Facilities and 0.1% for the Shared Roadway/ Walkway). All three reserve funds are in compliance with mandated annual contribution amounts and show positive balances for all 30 years of each of their planning periods. 2012 budget cover letter v6 16 November 2011

Budget Notes: 2012 TSCC 1577 Operating Budget (page 2 of 2) Essex Shared Facilities and Roadway/Walkway: The Essex 1 budgeted share will be $310,913 up $6,078 (0.36%) from 2011. a. Essex Shared Facilities budgeted costs will be $706,238 in 2012, up 1.0% over last year s budget. The Essex 1 share of 42.7% in 2012 will be $301,564, up $2,978. Utilities will be down $33,950 (-4.85%): (Hydro electricity will be down $28,600, largely due to the full year effect of the 2011 garage lighting retrofit. Gas will be down $5,700, reflecting 2011 operating experience. Water will be up $350, due to the city s multi year rate increase.) Essex Shared Facilities Reserve Fund contribution will be up $28,169 (+4.03%) as per the updated 2011 Reserve Fund study update covering the entire recreation centre and Phase 1 and Phase 2 garages. See Notes on Reserve Fund Study 2011. Repairs and Maintenance will be up $18,441 (+2.64%), due to periodic need to clean out garage sump pits and experienced higher costs for regular fire equipment maintenance. Maintenance & Service Contracts will be down $8,562 (-1.22%) due to service contract changes. Recreational / Joint Programs expenses will be down $2,219 (-0.32%) reflecting normal equipment repairs and maintenance and lower cleaning supplies costs. Administrative costs will be down $8,884 (-1.27%) due to lower consulting fees after the 2011 garage audit. Guest Suite/Party Room costs remain unchanged. Special Project: There is no special project in 2012. Tridel Rental Contract: In mid 2011, our three-year rental contract with Tridel was slated to end. Under the contract, Tridel pays us a rental fee for placing their Parc Nuvo marketing signs on our property. However, Tridel is expected to continue to pay the rental amount on a month to month basis for all of 2011. Our 2012 budget reflects the assumption that Tridel will opt not to continue these payments in 2012 and remove the signs at their expense under the terms of the contract. The Sundry Income account will therefore be down $13,980 resulting in a 2.0% increase in net cost. b. Essex Shared Roadway/Walkway budgeted costs will be $48,771, 49.62% increase. The Essex 1 share of 19.17% in 2012 will be $9,349, up $3,335. The Essex Shared Roadway/Walkway encompasses the existing Viking Lane (from Dundas Street on the north to St. Albans on the east) and the Walkway (from Viking Lane on the north to St. Albans to the south.) Under the original development agreement between Tridel and the City of Toronto, the adjacent five condominium corporations have an ongoing legal responsibility to maintain the Roadway and Walkway as public thoroughfares managed and paid for under the terms of a Shared Roadway/Walkway agreement imbedded in the declarations of each of the adjacent partner corporations. The sharp increase is due primarily to liability concerns (requiring increased liability insurance and assumption of sidewalk snow clearing costs currently included in the budgets of each of the corporations) that were identified in a legal clarification (conducted in 2011) of the roadway and walkway ownership and maintenance and repair responsibilities related to road surface, sidewalks and landscaping. The Essex 1 19.17% share is our part of the four-way proportional split with Essex 2, Nuvo 1 and Nuvo 2. Parc Nuvo, the fifth and final Tridel building will join the partnership when it is registered. To enhance overall site security, we will also install 2 new surveillance cameras ($4,500) along the Shared Walkway. The City has imposed a development approval condition on the condominium development on Aukland forcing them to contribute to the costs of the shared roadway/walkway. This potential additional partner, will only have the effect of slightly reducing our share of the cost some time in the future. 2012 budget cover letter v6 16 November 2011

Notes on 2011 Shared Facilities Reserve Fund Study. Ontario s Condominium legislation specifies that Reserve Fund Studies must be conducted every three years by qualified companies who have no affiliation with the board or with the corporation. These studies must outline the forecast requirements for major repairs and replacements of the common elements and assets of the corporation and include the funding plans to ensure funds are in place to meet these planned needs for every year of the 30 year planning timeframe. Based on information provided by the corporation and inspections conducted by these companies, they specify the expected expenditure requirements for each year of the thirty year planning horizon. They consider assessments of the current state of equipment and facilities conditions, and are expected to employ best engineering replacement standards and specifications in compliance with the Ontario Building Code. To reflect the effect of inflation in future years, the companies apply an assumed inflation rate. Additionally, they determine an assumed investment interest rate expected to be earned on Reserve Fund balances invested in specified low risk investment instruments, with the earnings retained in the fund. The legislation leaves it to the discretion of these companies to determine the assumed rates they use. In our past experience, these companies have used an average of the inflation and interest rates experienced in the past thirty years to be the basis of the assumed inflation and interest rates. Our new Reserve Fund Study company has a different methodology. They maintain that an average of the national inflation and interest rates for the past three years are a more useful predictor of the next three year planning period and are what they use as assumed inflation and interest rates. Since Reserve Fund Studies are updated at least every three years, the company holds that these assumed rates are more realistic. Your auditor does not take exception to this assumed rate methodology for Reserve Fund purposes. When establishing the funding plan, companies are guided by the principle that all owners (current and future) should bear an equal burden of the cost of major repairs and replacements, regardless of when they may be owners over the thirty year horizon. To that end, the contribution plan set out in the Reserve Study must achieve fully funded status for all of thirty years, and do so ideally in the upcoming first year of the plan and absolutely by the end of the third year. This latest Reserve Fund Study update for Essex Shared Facilities was conducted in the fall of 2011, a year earlier than mandated. The reason for this earlier study timing was to ensure that the financial impact of the upcoming 2012/2013 major work being planned for localized repairs in the underground garage roof, suspended slab membranes and expansion joints was properly reflected in Reserve Fund contributions. These repairs have been recommended by a professional engineering survey of areas impacted by water penetration over the past years. While there are no current safety concerns, it is prudent to carry out these localized repairs before any of the underground structure is in any way compromised. This study update also reflects more current experience in expected repair profiles and in particular predicts that major garage repairs will be required in two further occasions versus a single occurrence assumed in the previous study conducted in 2009. For this study, the assumed Canadian inflation rate used was 1.7%, which is an average of the annual national inflation rates over the past three (3) years (2008, 2009, 2010) as recorded by Statistics Canada. The assumed interest rate of 2.7% is an average of the interest rates calculated by the Bank of Canada over the same period. In the preparation of the Recommended Cash Flow Table, the Corporation's budgeted contribution of $253,773 in 2011 was incorporated. The annual contribution amount was then inflated by a rate that would maintain a positive balance in the Reserve Fund. An annual increase of 11.1% is required in 2012, 2013 and 2014 and 2.7% in the years beyond. As successive updates are carried out, the Cash Flow Table will be self-correcting, with each update projecting the cash flow for the thirty (30) year period following the year in which the update is carried out.
