MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

SCOPE OF ANALYSIS

This Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") of the financial condition and results of operations of Fronsac Real Estate Investment Trust ("Fronsac" or the "Trust") is intended to provide readers with an assessment of performance and summarize the results of operations and financial condition for the 3-month period ended March 31, 2020. It should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended March 31, 2020 and the Trust's Consolidated Financial Statements and MD&A for the period ended March 31, 2019. The financial data contained in this MD&A has been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and all amounts are in Canadian dollars. You can find all copies of Fronsac's recent financial reports on Fronsac's website fronsacreit.com and on sedar.com.

Dated May 22, 2020, this MD&A reflects all significant information available as of that date and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020 and accompanying notes included in this report.

CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Securities laws encourage companies to present forward-looking information to provide investors with a better understanding of the Trust's future prospects and help them make informed decisions. This MD&A contains forward-looking statements about the Trust's objectives, strategies, financial position, results of operations, cash flows and operations, which are based on management's current expectations, estimates and assumptions about the markets in which it operates.

Statements based on management's current expectations contain known and unknown inherent risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements may include verbs such as "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "intend" and "assess" or related expressions, used in the affirmative and negative forms. These statements represent the Trust's intentions, plans, expectations or beliefs and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond the Trust's control. Actual results may vary from expectations. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in the federal and provincial governments enacting numerous measures such as the implementation of a travel ban, selfimposed quarantine periods and social distancing. These measures have caused material disruption to businesses and has resulted in an economic slowdown. These measures have also resulted in material disruptions to global equity and capital markets.

It is not possible to forecast with certainty the duration and full scope of the economic impact of COVID-19 and accordingly certain aspects of the Trust's operations could be affected, including rent collection, occupancy rates, demand for retail space, capitalization rates, and the resulting value of the Trust's properties. The full extent and duration of COVID-19 remain uncertain at this time.

Please note that the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A describe our expectations as at May 22, 2020.

These properties are leased to tenants on a management free basis with triple net leases. Under this type of arrangement, the tenant is responsible for paying real estate taxes, insurance and any general maintenance required, in addition to the base rent already stipulated in the lease terms. These types of leases ensure stable recurring cash flows with an opportunity for growth.

MAJOR EVENTS OF THE QUARTER

On January 20, 2020, Fronsac announced, that it had entered into acquisition agreements to purchase three commercial properties in Québec and Ontario, and its intention to undertake a public offering of units of Fronsac at a price of $0.62 per Unit for minimum gross proceeds of approximately $15.0 million and maximum gross proceeds of approximately $18.0 million.

The REIT intended to use the net proceeds of the Offering as follows: (A) the acquisition by the Trust of a 100%-interest in a property located in Kenora, Ontario, and leased to Walmart for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.0 million (excluding transaction costs), which is expected to be satisfied by (1) approximately $8.4 million aggregate principal amount of new mortgage financing and (2) a cash payment of $3.6 million, which the Trust anticipates using from the net proceeds of the Offering, (B) the acquisition by the Trust of a 100%-interest in a property located in Farnham, Québec, and leased to a gas station and restaurant combo operated by Petro-Canada, a convenience store operator and Tim Hortons, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.0 million (excluding transaction costs), which is expected to be satisfied by (1) approximately $2.7 million aggregate principal amount of new mortgage financing and

1. a cash payment of $1.3 million, which the Trust anticipates using from the net proceeds of the Offering,
   (C) the acquisition by the Trust of a 75%-interest in a property located in Saint-Étienne-des-Grès, Québec, and leased to a gas station and restaurant combo operated by Parkland, a convenience store operator and Tim Hortons, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $3.0 million (excluding transaction costs), which is expected to be satisfied by (1) approximately $2.0 million aggregate principal amount of new mortgage financing and (2) a cash payment of $1.0 million, which the Trust anticipates using from the net proceeds of the Offering, (D) approximately $7.5 million assuming the Minimum Offering is completed and approximately $10.3 million assuming the Maximum Offering is completed to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under certain of Fronsac's credit facilities, which may be subsequently redrawn in connection with the acquisition by the REIT of the Acquisition Properties; (E) approximately $0.3 million for expenses incurred by the REIT in connection with the Offering; and (F) approximately $0.5 million for real estate transaction costs expected to be incurred in connection with the acquisition of the acquisition Properties, primarily comprised of land transfer and other taxes, insurance, bank underwriting fees, legal fees and third-party consultant fees; and the combined net operating income in respect of the Acquisition Properties is approximately $1.5 million, representing a 7.9% weighted average capitalization rate based on the aggregate purchase price of approximately $19.0 million (excluding transaction costs) in respect of the Acquisition Properties.

On February 13, 2020, Fronsac announced that it had closed its previously-announced public offering (the "Offering") of trust units of Fronsac (the "Units"). Under the Offering, an aggregate of 29 million Units were issued, representing the maximum number of Units qualified under Fronsac's short form prospectus, at a price of $0.62 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $18 million. The Offering was made through a syndicate of agents co-led by Paradigm Capital Inc. and Canaccord Genuity Corp., acting as joint bookrunners, and including Laurentian Bank Securities Inc., Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. and Desjardins Securities Inc.

The REIT intended to use the net proceeds of the Offering as described in the REIT's final short form prospectus dated February 7, 2020, including to partially fund the acquisition of three commercial properties in Québec and Ontario and repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under certain of the REIT's credit facilities.

On February 28, 2020, Fronsac announced the closing of two previously announced acquisitions. The first property acquired was in Farnham, Québec. It is composed of a Petro-Canada gas station, a Beau-Soir convenience store and a Tim Hortons restaurant. Total consideration paid was $4.0 million and was settled in cash. The second property acquired was in Kenora, Ontario. It is composed of a retail store operated under the Walmart banner. Total consideration paid for the property was $12.0 million and was settled in cash.

FRONSAC Real Estate Investment Trust

OUTLOOK 2020 & SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Fronsac is constantly looking for acquisitions of commercial real estate properties that have triple net leases and are management free. These types of acquisitions limit the overhead required to run the business and in turn allow management to focus on adding value through strategic acquisitions that are accretive to the Trust's FFO/AFFO per unit.

Fronsac is looking for acquisitions that will sustain its growth. The Trust's capital and debt structure puts it in a selective position for other potential acquisitions.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in the federal and provincial governments enacting numerous measures such as the implementation of a travel ban, selfimposed quarantine periods and social distancing. These measures have caused material disruption to businesses and has resulted in an economic slowdown. These measures have also resulted in material disruptions to global equity and capital markets.

Fronsac's portfolio is mostly comprised of retailers who provide essential services, such as service stations, quick service restaurants, grocery stores and pharmacies. As of today, the Trust's portfolio is comprised of 62 properties with just over 100 tenants. Throughout the COVID-19 crisis, our tenants have remained open to continue to provide these essential services to the communities in which they operate, with some exceptions. Depending on the type of tenant, some have experienced increased traffic, while others have been more susceptible to the governments stay at home initiatives.

It is not possible to forecast with certainty the duration and full scope of the economic impact of COVID-19 and accordingly certain aspects of the Trust's operations could be affected, including rent collection, occupancy rates, demand for retail space, capitalization rates, and the resulting value of the Trust's properties. The full extent and duration of COVID-19 remain uncertain at this time.

We have entered into rent deferral arrangements with certain tenants whose businesses have been impacted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Deferral requests are being handled on a case-by-case basis.

For the month of April, Fronsac collected 84% of its gross rents and entered into deferral agreements for 13% of gross rents for a total of 97%, on a consolidated basis.

For the month of May, Fronsac collected 87% of its gross rents and entered into deferral agreements for 10% of gross rents for a total of 97%, on a consolidated basis.

On April 9, 2020, Fronsac announced the acquisition of a property located in the district of Limbour in Gatineau, Qc. The property is a grocery store operated under the Metro banner. Total consideration paid for the property was $4,600,000 and was settled in cash.

Fronsac does not foresee any major repairs on its commercial properties as their construction is relatively recent and their present condition is excellent.

The Trust believes in a long term growth strategy through acquiring properties that will increase its funds from operations per unit, distributions per unit and as a result increase total unitholders value.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

This document contains various non-IFRS financial measures, which are used to explain the financial results of the Trust. The terms explained in this section do not have any standardized IFRS meaning and as such may not be comparable to other issuers.

Funds From Operations (FFO)is not an IFRS financial measure. FFO is an industry term and its calculation is prescribed in publications of the Real Property Association of Canada (REALpac). FFO as calculated by Fronsac may not be comparable to similar titled measures reported by other entities. FFO is an industry standard widely used for measuring operating performance and is exclusive of unrealized changes in the fair value of investment properties, deferred income taxes and gains or losses on property dispositions (see reconciliation to profit for the period attributable to unitholders on page 10). Fronsac considers FFO a meaningful additional measure as it adjusts for certain non-cash items that do not necessarily provide an appropriate picture of a Trust's recurring performance. It more reliably shows the impact on operations of trends in occupancy levels, rental rates, net property operating income and interest costs compared to profit determined in accordance with IFRS. As well, FFO allows some comparability amongst different real estate entities that have adopted different accounting with respect to investment properties (some entities use the cost model and whereas others use the fair value model to account for investment properties).

FFO per unitis not an IFRS financial measure. Fronsac calculates FFO per unit as FFO divided by the weighted average number of units outstanding.

Recurring Funds From Operations (FFO)is not an IFRS financial measure. Fronsac calculates recurring FFO by subtracting from the base FFO material non-recurring revenues and adding material non-recurring charges.

Recurring FFO per unitis not an IFRS financial measure. Fronsac calculates Recurring FFO per unit as recurring FFO divided by the weighted average number of units outstanding.

Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO)is an industry term used to help evaluate dividend or distribution capacity. AFFO as calculated by Fronsac may not be comparable to similar titled measures reported by other entities. AFFO primarily adjusts FFO for other non-cash revenues and expenses and operating capital and leasing requirements that must be made merely to preserve the existing rental stream. Most of these expenditures would normally be considered investing activities in the statement of cash flows. Capital expenditures, which generate a new investment or revenue stream, such as the development of a

FRONSAC	8

FRONSAC Real Estate Investment Trust

new property or redevelopment of an existing property, would not be included in determining AFFO. AFFO excludes the impact of working capital changes as they are viewed as short-term cash requirements or surpluses. In addition, non-recurring costs that impact operating cash flow may be adjusted.

AFFO per unitis not an IFRS financial measure. Fronsac calculates AFFO per unit as AFFO divided by the weighted average number of units outstanding.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) is not an IFRS financial measure. EBITDA, as calculated by Fronsac, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other entities. EBITDA is used in calculations that measure the Trust's ability to service debt. Its calculation is profit before financial expenses, income tax expense, amortization and unrealized changes in fair value of investment properties.

FFO, Recurring FFO, AFFO and EBITDA are not defined by IFRS, and therefore should not be considered as alternatives to profit or net income calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Distributable Incomeis not an IFRS measure There is no standardized measure of distributable income Distributable income is presented in this MD&A because Fronsac believes this non IFRS measure is a relevant measure of its ability to earn and distribute cash returns to unitholders Distributable Income as computed by Fronsac may differ from similar computations as reported by other similar entities and, accordingly, may not be comparable to distributable income as reported by such entities

The Distributable Income of Fronsac is calculated based on Fronsac's income determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act (as amended, subject to certain adjustments as set out in Fronsac's contract of trust, including that capital gains and capital losses be excluded, net recapture income be excluded, no deduction be made for non capital losses, capital cost allowance, terminal losses, amortization of cumulative eligible capital or amortization of costs of issuing units or financing fees related to the instalment loan, and leasehold and client improvements be amortized Distributable Income so calculated may reflect any other adjustments determined by the Trustees in their discretion and may be estimated whenever the actual amount has not been fully determined. Such estimates will be adjusted as of the subsequent distribution date when the amount of Distributable Income has been finally determined.

ADDITIONAL IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES USED IN THIS DOCUMENT

Net Property Operating Income (NOI)is an industry term in widespread use. The Trust includes NOI as an additional IFRS measure in its consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income. NOI as calculated by Fronsac may not be comparable to similar titled measures reported by other entities. Fronsac considers NOI a meaningful additional measure of operating performance of property assets, prior to financing considerations. Its calculation is total revenues less total operating expenses as shown in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (property revenues less total property operating costs, including operating ground rents).

Financial position & COVID-19

Fronsac benefits from a solid financial position following the $18M public offering of February 2020. The Trust has sufficient liquidity, including cash on hand and undrawn credit facilities, to meet its current obligations, working capital requirements and distributions. As of today, Fronsac has approximately $10 million of cash and availability on its credit facilities. The Trust was proactive in Q1, having already completed the refinancing of its long-term mortgage maturities due in 2020 with the exception of one. This mortgage is expected to be refinanced in due course.

Please refer to section "Outlook 2020 & Subsequent Event" and Note 28 "Subsequent Events" in the accompanying financial statements for a discussion on COVID-19 and its impacts on the Trust.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2020

For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Trust had rental income of $2,863,606 ($1,999,095 in Q1 2019). This increase in rental income is due to the addition of new properties and the increases in rent of certain existing properties. These rents are composed primarily of fixed monthly rents as well as variable rents based on gross sales for certain tenants.

The change in fair value of investment properties is based on the change in capitalization rates applied to each property's adjusted net operating income as well as post-acquisition adjustments (see page 16 for more details). As at March 31, 2020, the Trust has estimated that a 0.25% decrease in the capitalization rate applied to the overall portfolio would increase the fair value of the investment properties by approximately $5.6 million ($3.7 million in Q1 2019) while an increase in the capitalization rate would

FRONSAC	13

FRONSAC Real Estate Investment Trust

decrease the fair value of the investment properties by aproximately $5.2 million ($3.5 million in Q1 2019). The weighted average capitalization rate used in the calculation of the fair value of investment property is 6.42% (6.45% in Q1 2019) while the range of capitalization rates used is 5.75% to 7.25% (5.75% to 7.25% in Q1 2019). The fair value of the investment properties indicated in the consolidated financial statements has been calculated internally using the direct capitalization method, which consists in applying a capitalization rate to the adjusted rental income of each property. The capitalization rates used are provided by a third party firm specializing in the appraisal of commercial properties. The adjusted rental income is adjusted to take into consideration provision for vacancies, administrative fees, structural reserves and discounts on variable income.

The Trust's main operating expenses were financial in nature and were almost entirely made up of interest on mortgages and bank loans, which amounted to $691,883 in Q1 2020 compared to $504,905 for the same period last year. Financial expenses for Q1 2020 are higher than for Q1 2019, mainly because the the increase in interest expense, which is due to the increase in the number of mortgages.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Trust recorded basic recurring FFO of $1,462,713 in comparison to $1,000,484 in Q1 2019. Basic recurring FFO per unit increased by 12% from 0.98¢ to 1.10¢ for the same period last year. The growth in FFO is mainly derived from rental revenues of newly acquired properties net of the increase in financial expenses related to new mortgages on the properties.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE

The real estate business requires capital in order to continue to fund acquisitions, which is a key part to growth and success. The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of trust units. During the 3-month period ended March 31, 2020, the Trust issued units as follows:

On January 20, 2020, Fronsac announced, that it had entered into acquisition agreements to purchase three commercial properties in Québec and Ontario, and its intention to undertake a public offering of units of Fronsac at a price of $0.62 per Unit for minimum gross proceeds of approximately $15.0 million and maximum gross proceeds of approximately $18.0 million.

On February 13, 2020, Fronsac announced that it had closed its previously-announced public offering (the "Offering") of trust units of Fronsac (the "Units"). Under the Offering, an aggregate of 29 million Units were issued, representing the maximum number of Units qualified under Fronsac's short form prospectus, at a price of $0.62 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $18 million. The Offering was made through a syndicate of agents co-led by Paradigm Capital Inc. and Canaccord Genuity Corp., acting as joint bookrunners, and including Laurentian Bank Securities Inc., Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. and Desjardins Securities Inc.

The REIT intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering as described in the REIT's final short form prospectus dated February 7, 2020, including to partially fund the acquisition of three commercial properties in Québec and Ontario and repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under certain of the REIT's credit facilities.

On March 9, 2020, announced the issuance of 322,000 units of Fronsac REIT at a price of $0.60 per unit, which equates to $193,200 as partial compensation for the services rendered by certain members of management and the board of trustees during the fiscal year ended on December 31st, 2019.

On March 12, 2020, Fronsac purchased 2,000 units at a price of $0.55 per unit on the TSX Venture through its Normal Course Issuer Bid. The 2,000 units were cancelled in April 2020.

These mortgages require the Trust to make principal payments of $30,798,005 over the next 5 year and $40,161,049 thereafter. The mortgages outstanding currently have an average term to maturity of 6.1 years (6.1 years at December 31, 2019). Convertible debentures in circulation as at March 31, 2020 have a carrying value of $2,985,538 ($3,023,326 at December 31, 2019).

Management believes that Fronsac's blend of debt and equity in its capital base provides stability and reduces risk, while generating an acceptable return on investment. This compliments the long-term business strategy of the Trust, which is to grow its presence in the commercial real estate market in Canada.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Trust's consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities at the reporting date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates and judgments include assessing the nature of an acquisition and whether it represents a business combination or an acquisition of assets and liabilities, whether a joint arrangement structured through a separate vehicle is a joint operation or a joint venture, the assessment of the fair values of investment properties and the assessment of the unit-based compensation and derivative financial instruments where the fair value cannot be derived from active markets.

One significant judgment and key estimate that affects the reported amounts of assets at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of profit or loss during the period, relates to property valuations. Investment properties, which are carried on the consolidated statements of financial position at fair value, are valued by the Trust. The valuation of investment properties is one of the principal estimates and uncertainties of these financial statements. The valuations are based on a number of assumptions, such as appropriate discount rates and capitalization rates and estimates of future rental income, operating expenses and capital expenditures. These investment properties are sensitive to fluctuations in capitalization and discount rates. Investment properties are appraised primarily based on adjusted cash flows obtained from existing tenants, since market participants focus more on expected income. The fair value of investment properties indicated in the consolidated financial statements has been calculated internally using the direct capitalization method based on rental income. This fair value has been calculated by using a capitalization rate, provided by qualified independent professional appraisers, and applied on adjusted rental income. Rental income is adjusted to take into consideration provision for vacancies, administrative fees, structural reserves and discounts on variable income.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

All property investments are subject to a degree of risk and uncertainty. Property investments are affected by various factors including general economic conditions and local market circumstances. Local business conditions such as oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for space particularly affect property investments. At March 31, 2020 the Trust held interests in 61 properties in Quebec, Ontario and Nova Scotia, across 5 market segments. The Trust is exposed to credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. In order to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on its expenses and cash flows, the Trust constantly follows the evolution of the market interest rate risk and consequently determines the composition of its debts.

Credit Risk

Credit risk comes primarily from the potential inability of customers to discharge their rental obligations. Fronsac strives to obtain rent payments on a monthly basis in order to limit this risk while maintaining a limited receivable balance ($691K as at March 31, 2020 compared to $517K as at December 31, 2019). The composition of this balance mostly includes major Canadian oil companies and gas companies with a small credit risk. The remainder of receivables represents amounts owing from Government agencies, which pose a minimum credit risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk affects the Trust through its loans receivable, mortgages, long term debt, convertible debentures and bank loans. These instruments bear fixed interest rates and as such expose the Trust to fair value risk. Lines of credit with a floating interest rate expose the Trust to a cash flow risk. If market conditions warrant, the Trust may attempt to renegotiate its existing debt to take advantage of lower interest rates. The trust has an ongoing requirement to access debt makers and there is a risk that lenders will not refinance such maturing debt on terms and conditions acceptable to the Trust or on any terms at all.

change of 1% of the interest rates would have an impact of $176,355 on the financial expenses of the quarter.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk of being unable to honour financial commitments by the deadlines set out under the terms of such commitments. Senior management manages the Trust's cash resources with respect to financial forecasts and anticipated cash flows.

The Trust has cash availability which allows it to control its current liquidity risks, mainly composed of accounts payable, current portion of mortgages and long-term debt and its bank indebtedness.

Lease roll-over risk

Lease roll-over risk arises from the possibility that Fronsac may experience difficulty renewing leases as they expire or in re-leasing space vacated by tenants. Fronsac's principal management of occupancy risk is the skewing of tenancies towards national tenants, the signing of longer term leases and significant pre- leasing of development space.

Development and Acquisition Risk

The Trust's external growth prospects will depend in large part on identifying suitable acquisition opportunities and conducting necessary due diligence. If the Trust is unable to manage its growth and integrate its acquisitions and developments effectively, its business operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. Developments and acquisitions may not meet operational or financial expectations due to unexpected costs or market conditions, which could impact the Trust's performance.

Environmental Risk

Fronsac is subject to various laws relating to the environment which deal primarily with the costs of removal and remediation of hazardous substances such petroleum products. Environmental risk is relevant to Fronsac's ability to sell or finance affected assets and could potentially result in liabilities for the costs of removal and remediation of hazardous substances or claims against Fronsac. Management is not aware of any material non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations with regard to Fronsac's portfolio, or of any material pending or threatened actions, investigations or claims against Fronsac relating to environmental matters. Fronsac manages environmental exposures in a proactive manner by conducting thorough due diligence before the acquisition of each property and by taking envrionmental insurance coverage on properties that where risk could potentially arise.

Status of the REIT

Fronsac is required to comply with specific restrictions regarding its activities and the investments held by it in order to maintain its real estate investment trust status ("REIT"). Should Fronsac cease to qualify as a REIT, the consequences could be material and adverse. As well, Fronsac conducts its affairs in order to qualify as a REIT under applicable tax statutes so that it retains its status as a flowthrough vehicle for the particular year. Should Fronsac not meet the conditions to qualify as a REIT in a particular year, it may be subject to tax similar to a corporation, which may have an adverse impact on it and its unitholders, on the value of the units and on its ability to undertake financings and acquisitions. This could also materially reduce its distributable cash. Management believes that it complies with the REIT rules.

Access to Capital

The Trust's growth prospects depends on its ability to access capital, mainly debt and equity. Adverse market conditions could lead to a negative capital markets environment in which the Trust might not be able to issue units, debentures or any other financial instruments in order to raise capital. Access to debt, mainly through mortgages, is also crucial for financing purposes, and the unavailibilty of the debt market would make it harder for Fronsac to acquire real estate assets that satisfy its investment criteria.

Public Health Risk in Relation to COVID-19

A local, regional, national or international outbreak of a contagious disease, such as COVID-19, could have an adverse effect on local economies and potentially the global economy. The COVID-19 could affect the Trust's ability to collect rent in certain instances.
