Q: Hello 5i Team
Northview REIT (NVU) has issued the Management Information Circular for the proposed takeover of NVU by Starlight and Kingsett Capital at a price of $36.25.
Please advise on the following questions:
1 - As no other offer came forward during the go shop period, I am assuming the $36.25 per unit offer will be the best and final offer current shareholders will receive.
2 - Which is the best option to select: OPTION 1 —ALL-CASH ELECTION or OPTION 2 —HIGH YIELD FUND SUBSCRIPTION ELECTION and if Option 2 is selected which percentage of the Unit Election should be selected (refer to the Letter of Transmittal and Election Form).
3 - Reviewing the Management Information Circular, the High Yield Fund looks like the original Northern Properties REIT prior to the 2015 takeover of the True North Apartment REIT. Essentially it looks like Starlight Capital (Mr. Drimmer) is buying back what they sold in 2015. What is 5i's view on this?
4 - I noticed Credit Suisse Securities (Canada), Inc. has become a 9.95 % holder of NVU - do you think they are playing the arbitrage between their purchase price and the offer price?
Thank you

Q: Shopify has grown to be 12% of my portfolio ( thanks to 5i ) and as a result I need to sell some shares. I was wondering what companies you would recommend as a replacement . Would also appreciate your comments on MDF Mediagrif and TCS Tecsys.
Great work through these interesting times.

Right now might not be the time to invest but I have time. Do you have a few stock suggestions for me for now or in the near future? Thank you , Tamara
