Project <strong>Terra</strong> <strong>Adriatica</strong><br />

Identify, Validate & Monetize<br />

Your Ancestral Right <strong>to</strong> Croatian Land<br />

Help Croatia <strong>to</strong> return billions of<br />

square meters of land <strong>to</strong> productivity


WELCOME TO PROJECT<br />

TERRA ADRIATICA!<br />

As a team, we are passionate about achieving our mission <strong>to</strong> return producti<br />

vity <strong>to</strong> vast tracks of unclaimed, ancestral land in <strong>the</strong> Republic of Croatia<br />

– land which is currently lying economically dormant due <strong>to</strong> issues with<br />

establishing legal title.<br />

In doing so, we will unlock tens of billions of euros in latent value for its<br />

rightful owners, and by extension <strong>the</strong> Croatian economy which will benefit<br />

from <strong>the</strong> legitimate development and proper use of that land.<br />

As such, our mission represents <strong>the</strong> single most effective program through<br />

which members of <strong>the</strong> Croatian diaspora can help <strong>the</strong>ir mo<strong>the</strong>rland, while<br />

at <strong>the</strong> same time generating value for <strong>the</strong>mselves.<br />

To achieve this, we’ve developed a product called Locksmith. Locksmith<br />

facilitates <strong>the</strong> generation of value from <strong>the</strong> sale of affected land at no upfront<br />

cost, or financial risk <strong>to</strong> you.<br />

If you are of Croatian descent, you may have a valid claim without knowing<br />

it. We want <strong>to</strong> help you find out. If you do, <strong>the</strong>n congratulations! You are not<br />

only a part of <strong>the</strong> solution but also a potential candidate for our Pilot Project<br />

<strong>to</strong> address a target 300 hectares of affected land.<br />

This booklet outlines <strong>the</strong> issue at hand and how we can work <strong>to</strong>ge<strong>the</strong>r <strong>to</strong><br />

solve it. Links <strong>to</strong> more detailed explanations and additional resources are<br />

provided in <strong>the</strong> last chapter.<br />

By working with us <strong>to</strong> identify, establish and monetize your rightful, ancestral<br />

claim <strong>to</strong> land, you will be at <strong>the</strong> forefront of a movement that ultimately has<br />

<strong>the</strong> potential <strong>to</strong> transform <strong>the</strong> fortunes of Croatia and its people.<br />

I hope that this marks <strong>the</strong> beginning of a highly productive relationship. We<br />

look forward <strong>to</strong> working with you <strong>to</strong> solve one of <strong>the</strong> most pressing problems<br />

that our country faces <strong>to</strong>day.<br />

The Challenge<br />

Successive waves of emigration, communist rule and a his<strong>to</strong>ry of conflict<br />

has resulted in at least 10% of all Croatian land lying economically dormant,<br />

due <strong>to</strong> missing, incomplete or outdated land registry records.<br />

This unclaimed land represents anywhere between €5billion and<br />

€10billion in lost value for its potential owners, such as you, as well as<br />

many times that in lost productivity for <strong>the</strong> Croatian economy.<br />

An estimated 3.2m global citizens of Croatian descent with a potential<br />

share in this claim hold <strong>the</strong> key <strong>to</strong> resolving this issue - often without<br />

even knowing it.<br />

Those who are aware of a claim are rarely able <strong>to</strong> justify <strong>the</strong> signifi cant<br />

cost and time required <strong>to</strong> navigate <strong>the</strong> highly complex process of establishing<br />

it in law.


The Solution<br />

<strong>Terra</strong> <strong>Adriatica</strong> enables any<br />

individual of Croatian descent <strong>to</strong><br />

identify, establish and ultimately<br />

monetize <strong>the</strong>ir ancestral claim <strong>to</strong><br />

land at no upfront cost, or risk<br />

while delivering 90% of <strong>the</strong> net<br />

proceeds achieved at sale.<br />

By entering in<strong>to</strong> a “Locksmith”<br />

agreement, you commit upfront<br />

<strong>to</strong> selling <strong>the</strong> land we identify<br />

and establish as yours. This<br />

commitment enables us <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>n<br />

secure an external inves<strong>to</strong>r willing<br />

<strong>to</strong> fund <strong>the</strong> process, so you don’t<br />

have <strong>to</strong>.


YOU<br />

TA<br />

INVESTOR<br />

Following a sale, <strong>the</strong><br />

inves<strong>to</strong>r recoups <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

outlay, plus a small<br />

return. The net proceeds<br />

are <strong>the</strong>n split 90% <strong>to</strong><br />

you and 10% <strong>to</strong> <strong>Terra</strong><br />

<strong>Adriatica</strong> as a commission<br />

for facilitating <strong>the</strong> service.<br />

The land is freed<br />

up for legitimate<br />

development and use<br />

<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> benefit of local<br />

communities and <strong>the</strong><br />

Croatian economy as<br />

a whole.<br />

Our mantra is that<br />

we act at all times<br />

on behalf of you, as<br />

<strong>the</strong> seller of land.<br />

Our entire process<br />

ensures full alignment<br />

between all parties, at<br />

all times, in achieving<br />

<strong>the</strong> highest price for<br />

<strong>the</strong> land at sale.


How it works<br />

We use specific technology <strong>to</strong> compare<br />

<strong>the</strong> family tree data you provide with often<br />

imperfect records held in Croatia’s<br />

land registries.<br />

By connecting tens of millions of data<br />

records, we create an initial picture as<br />

<strong>to</strong> what potential rights you may have <strong>to</strong><br />

land. We provide this initial assessment<br />

via a free report.<br />

If you are happy for us <strong>to</strong> invest resources<br />

<strong>to</strong> fur<strong>the</strong>r refine this list and ultimately<br />

<strong>to</strong> sell any land <strong>to</strong> which we can prove<br />

you have a valid claim, <strong>the</strong>n we enter<br />

in<strong>to</strong> a Locksmith Agreement.<br />

To provide this service at zero upfront<br />

cost <strong>to</strong> you, we find inves<strong>to</strong>rs willing <strong>to</strong><br />

lend <strong>the</strong> funds at <strong>the</strong>ir financial risk.<br />

If and when we are successful and <strong>the</strong><br />

land is sold, <strong>the</strong> inves<strong>to</strong>r gets <strong>the</strong>ir money<br />

back plus interest. The rest is <strong>the</strong>n<br />

split 90% <strong>to</strong> you and 10% <strong>to</strong> <strong>Terra</strong> <strong>Adriatica</strong>.
