As of December 31, 2023, the receivable from the investment fund amounts to US$3.5 million for the commitment to cover the spread.

d.Derivative financial instruments
The fair value of derivative financial instruments, comprised of forwards, warrants and options is determined in accordance with the following criteria:
Forward exchange contracts – at the market quotation value and the installments receivable or payable are prefixed to a future date, adjusted to present value based on market rates.
Options – option contracts provide the purchaser the right to buy the instrument at a pre-determined base price at a future date.
Warrants – the warrant liabilities issued by PLAO contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. The fair value has been measured based on the listed market price of such warrants.
Forward exchange contracts
The Group has previously entered into forward exchange contracts to protect against changes in future cash flows and exchange rate variation of net investments in foreign operations known as Non-Deliverable Forward (“NDF”) contracts. As of December 31, 2023 (see table 12.d.1 with the composition of the derivative financial instrument portfolio for December 31, 2022) there are no open forward exchange contracts.
VBI – option arrangements
The business combination with VBI (as disclosed in note 29), includes a call and put option arrangement (collectively “VBI Option arrangements”) with the non-controlling interest shareholders, exercisable at specified future dates and linked to the second stage of the business combination. The original VBI shareholders granted to the Group a call option arrangement (“VBI call option”) which includes the right for the potential acquisition of the remaining non-controlling interest of VBI. The exercise price will be equal to a pre-determined formula based on the value of VBI’s fee earning assets under management on the exercise date and adjusted for interest.
The Group has no obligation to exercise the VBI call option and can exercise at its discretion in accordance with the VBI call option exercise dates (see below) to be settled in a combination of cash consideration and Class A common shares.
In addition, the Group granted a put option arrangement (“VBI put option”) to the non-controlling shareholders of VBI that is linked to the second stage of the business combination. It is exercisable at specified future dates (see below) at the discretion of the non-controlling shareholders and upon expiry of the VBI call option mentioned above. The financial implications of the VBI put option are disclosed under note 20 (d) recognized at the present value of the expected redemption amount payable. The maturity profile of the VBI Option arrangements is detailed below:
The VBI call option and VBI put option (after amendment of the shareholders agreement in 2023) shall only be exercisable between the second anniversary of the acquisition closing date (inclusive) and the third anniversary date of the acquisition closing date (inclusive).
The non-controlling shareholders currently have all the economic benefits associated with ownership of shares representing non-controlling interest.
Igah IV – option arrangements
The business combination with Igah IV (as disclosed in note 29), includes a call and put option arrangement (collectively “Igah Option arrangements”) with the selling shareholders, exercisable at specified future dates and linked to acquiring the remaining interest in Igah IV. The selling shareholders of Igah IV granted to the Group a call option arrangement (“Igah call option”) which includes the right for the potential acquisition of the remaining interest of Igah IV. The exercise price will be equal to a pre-determined formula based on the value of Igah IV’s fundraising activity until the investments fund’s final closing and firm commitments on the exercise date and adjusted for interest and dividends. From the acquisition date, the selling shareholders of Igah IV are entitled to any dividends from the Company’s Class A common shares that the selling shareholders will receive in connection with the settlement of the Igah Option arrangements (note 29).
The Group has no obligation to exercise the Igah call option and can exercise at its discretion in accordance with the Igah call option exercise dates (see below) to be settled in a combination of cash consideration and Class A common shares.
In addition, the Group granted a put option arrangement (“Igah put option”) to the selling shareholders of Igah IV.

The Igah put option shall only be exercisable up to 2 months after the expiry of the Igah call option (inclusive).
The One Real Estate Investment Fund – option arrangements
Call options were acquired from certain shareholders of The One Real Estate Investment Fund, a real estate investment fund. The call options provide the Group with the right to acquire a non-controlling interest in the real estate investment fund. The call options are exercisable from June 2024.
SPAC – warrant liabilities
On March 14, 2022 PLAO concluded its IPO of 23,000,000 Units including the issuance of 3,000,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s exercise in full of its over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share, par value $0.0001 per share, and one-half of one redeemable warrant of PLAO (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to PLAO of $230,000,000. Additionally, the Units will automatically separate into their component parts and will not be traded after completion of the initial business combination.
Each whole Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one SPAC Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the completion of the initial business combination and will expire five years after the completion of the initial business combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. On the exercise of any Warrant, the Warrant exercise price will be paid directly to the SPAC and not placed in the trust account.
The Group recognizes the Warrants as financial liabilities at fair value and remeasures the Warrants at fair value at each reporting period, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Group’s Consolidated Income Statement. The fair value has been measured based on the listed market price of such Warrants. The expected life of the Warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Group expects to be zero.
The SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares and Warrants comprising the Units began separate trading on the 52nd day following the date of PLAO’s IPO. As of December 31 2023 and December 31, 2022, 11,500,000 Warrants were in issue by PLAO. In addition, if the SPAC sponsor makes any working capital loans, it may convert those loans into a maximum of 1,500,000 additional private placement warrants, at the price of $1.00 per warrant.
Redemption of Warrants when the price per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $18.00: Once the Warrants become exercisable, PLAO may redeem the outstanding Warrants:
in whole and not in part;
at a price of $0.01 per Warrant;
upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and
if, and only if, the last reported sale price of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which PLAO sends the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders.
PLAO will not redeem the Warrants as described above unless an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares is available throughout the 30-day redemption period. Any such exercise would not be on a cashless basis and would require the exercising warrant holder to pay the exercise price for each Warrant being exercised.
Redemption of Warrants when the price per SPAC Class A Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $10.00: Once the Warrants become exercisable, PLAO may redeem the outstanding Warrants:
in whole and not in part;
at a price of $0.10 per Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; provided that holders will be able to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to the table set forth in the warrant agreement based on the redemption date and the “redemption fair market value” of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (as defined below) except as otherwise described in the warrant agreement;
if, and only if, the closing price of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and
if the closing price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted).
Solely for the purposes of this redemption provision, the “redemption fair market value” of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares shall mean the volume weighted average price of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares for the ten (10) trading days immediately following the date on which notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Warrants.
No fractional SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares will be issued upon redemption. If, upon redemption, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, PLAO will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued to the holder.
