CIVITAS EB-5 CAPITAL OUR VALUES Civitas EB-5 Capital manages regional centers throughout the United States. Our experience with EB-5 investments began with the City of Dallas Regional Center (CDRC), where Civitas has attracted more than $300 million in EB-5 capital for job-creating investments through a public-private partnership with the City of Dallas. Building on this success, Civitas has now expanded its EB-5 investment platform to other markets in Texas and across the country. As a professional investment manager, Civitas performs rigorous, institutional-quality financial analysis for each potential EB-5 project. We screen hundreds of investments every year to ensure that those selected meet EB-5 job creation requirements as well as our own stringent underwriting standards. CLIENT INTERESTS ALWAYS COME FIRST We believe serving our clients well is the key to earning their trust and that putting them first is the foundation of our success. We constantly strive to anticipate the rapidly changing needs of our clients and to develop new solutions to meet those needs. INVEST IN OUR CLIENTS Our clients are our partners. We invest time and effort throughout our relationship to fully understand what motivates them and serve them better. REALIZE CLIENT POTENTIAL We look beyond the status quo to find something better.

We demand integrity and transparency in everything we do. Washington D.C. Approved Regional Centers Pending Regional Centers As of April 2016
