DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The Directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the Directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the Directors are required to:
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The loss for the year, after taxation, amounted to £14,000 (2023 - loss £14,000).
No dividends were declared or paid in the current or prior period.
The Directors who served during the year were:

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, the Directors have reviewed the trading and cash flow forecasts of the Company against the available financing facilities and covenants which include the Directors' assessment of the impact of economic environment. The Company owes £15,750,604 to its parent company MREF V GP Limited on behalf of MREF V "B" Limited Partnership. This debt is interest free and repayable on demand. The Company has received confirmation from MREF V GP Limited on behalf of MREF V "B" Limited Partnership as ultimate controlling party that they do not intend to recall the loans owed by the Company within the next 12 months of signing the financial statements.
The Directors have given consideration as to the ability of the ultimate controlling parties to continue as a going concern and the ability of the parent to continue to provide such support as is necessary. The ultimate controlling party, MREF V "B" Limited Partnership has a combined total of Investor capital £194,228,000 as at 31 December 2024 which is then used to fund the Group through intercompany debt. For the reasons set out above the Directors believe that the Company has the ability to continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of the approval of the financial statements and therefore consider it appropriate to adopt a going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
The auditors, BDO LLP, were appointed in the period and will be proposed for reappointment in accordance with section 485 of the Companies Act 2006.
In preparing this report, the Directors have taken advantage of the small companies exemptions provided by section 415A of the Companies Act 2006.
This report was approved by the board and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MREF V MLP HOLDINGS LIMITED
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other matter
The corresponding figures are unaudited.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MREF V MLP HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Directors report and financial statements, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Directors' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Directors' Report.

MREF V MLP HOLDINGS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF MREF V MLP HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Extent to which the audit was capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Non-compliance with laws and regulations
Based on:
∙Our understanding of the Company and the industry in which it operates;
∙Discussion with management and those charged with governance; and
∙Obtaining an understanding of the Company’s policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations.
We considered the significant laws and regulations to be the applicable accounting framework and Companies Act 2006.
The Company is also subject to laws and regulations where the consequence of non-compliance could have a material effect on the amount or disclosures in the financial statements, for example through the imposition of fines or litigations. We identified such laws and regulations to be UK tax legislation.
Our procedures in respect of the above included:
∙Review of minutes of meetings of those charged with governance for any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations; and
∙Review of financial statement disclosures and agreeing to supporting documentation.
Fraud
We assessed the susceptibility of the financial statements to material misstatement, including fraud. Our risk assessment procedures included:
∙Enquiry with management and those charged with governance regarding any known or suspected instances of fraud;
∙Obtaining an understanding of the Company’s policies and procedures relating to:
°Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud; and
°Internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud.
∙Review of minutes of meetings of those charged with governance for any known or suspected instances of fraud;
∙Discussion amongst the engagement team as to how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements;
∙Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud;
∙Considering remuneration incentive schemes and performance targets and the related financial statement areas impacted by these.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements (continued)
Based on our risk assessment, we considered the area most susceptible to fraud to be management override of controls.
Our procedure in respect of the above included:
∙Testing a sample of journal entries throughout the year, which met a defined risk criteria, by agreeing to supporting documentation.
We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members who were all deemed to have appropriate competence and capabilities and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.
Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we are to become aware of it.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.
This report is made solely to the Company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditors' Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
