University Town. Specifically, we will launch the 2+2 Articulation
program, Public Private Partnership (and other education programs
in cooperation with public universities such as Camosun University.
We plan to establish one of the largest private film and animation
colleges in Canada based on our Max the Mutt College of Animation,
Art & Design. We aim to develop the 95-105 buildings into a
leading comprehensive university facility in Toronto, mainly
focused on digital art and supplemented with film and animation
production. In addition, we intend to build two student apartment
buildings, expand the sports field, and open dining facilities. We
expect to accommodate 12,000 to 15,000 students in the next five
years at Visionary University Town. We plan for Visionary
University Town to become a first-class university campus in Canada
with a beautiful campus, and a convenient study and living
environment for students and faculty.”

initiatives, we plan to lease portions of the facility to third
party educational organizations with whom we may join in providing
educational services. The building spaces are most leased out until
year 2023 to 2025, which we expect to generate over US$10 million
annual rent revenue from the existing and future tenants. We
believe the establishment of Visionary University Town will promote
the establishment of partnerships, joint ventures and cooperative
enterprises and strategic alliances between us and other
educational institutions and increase our influence in the film and
animation education industry.”
