S IMMO and its recent investments S IMMO achieved remarkable portfolio acquisitions in the past year 2010. But are these new investments really supposed to pay-off within the next years ? Numbers after 3Q were behind expectations. However, when looking back to the year 2010, the company was able to enlarge its portfolio by several huge investments in most cases out of its own development pipeline.

Completions in 1Q 2010 - Sun Plaza in Bucharest

In spring 2010 the largest shopping center of Romania, Sun Plaza, was accomplished and opened. The mall has an investment volume of Euro 200m and is a development of S IMMO and the shopping center developer EMCT. It is located in the southern part of the Romanian capital Bucharest and has a lettable area of 90,000 sqm. Thereof about 80k sqm is for shopping and 10k is for office. Vacancy for the retail area is only at 3% while the office part is still under construction but to be finished and opened soon.1k sqm of the office space is already preleased to Centrul Medical Unirea (CMU), which means 90% of the office space has no preletting at the moment but the company is in negotiations to change that. In case of a complete occupancy we assume annual revenues of Euro 2.1m for the office part as likely (assuming a rent of Euro 18.00/sqm/month). While the prime rent is at present at Euro 19.50. That implies a market value of Sun Offices based on our estimated yield of 10.5% (9.5% prime yield 3Q 2010) of about Euro 20.6m. But for our final calculation we assume the actual occupancy of 10% for the moment.

The office prime rent in Bucharest is stable at Euro 19.50 per sqm per month nevertheless there is downward pressure on net effective rents. In particular the quite slow economic recovery and in addition the extensive austerity measures imposed, are yet to take full effect. The office market in Bucharest changed from a market dominated by pre-leases (2008 and former) to a market dominated by reneawals and lease negotiations. However, after its cycical low in Q2 2009 the market continued its recovery in 2010. Tak-Up steadily increased from a level of

20k sqm in 2Q 2009 in recent quarters to a level of 65k sqm in 3Q 2010. Therefore 3Q has outperformed the most optimistic scenarios. Most requested are solid and modern buildings in prime locations and excellent technical specification buildings. That demand also matches with class A office space at Sun Plaza. Indeed, Sun Offices is the first modern office development in the South area of the city. At present majority of transactions, which is over 60% of transactions in take-up, are signed for buildings in the North and North-Pipera area of Bucharest. The South area accounts for a minimum of only only 43,500 sqm in office space (a share of 2%) with an above average vacancy rate of 27.8%. Bearing in mind that total modern office stock in Bucharest amounts to some 2m sqm and in average 70k sqm new office supply are completed each quarter. Average vacancy is currently at 18% but supposed to rise on account of new office space to be delivered and little pre-lease agreements.

Retail market Romania & Bucharest

To come straight to the point, emerging markets like Romania remain interesting for international retailers. According to a CBRE study, the country is positioned in second place in a top in terms of new retailers entering the market in 2009. And this trend still lasts as more new retailers plan to enter the market or intend to expand their engagement in 2011. In particular prime areas like the capital Bucharest are of major interest. The city attracts 10% of total population (at present almost 2m inhabitants) and is by far the largest city as there are no other cities with more than half a million citizens in Romania. Therefore Bucharest takes on a special position and receives most enthusiasm when compared to other cities or areas in the country that expirienced a clear drop in purchasing power. Total stock of modern retail space in Romania amounts to a 2.15m sqm. A huge share, some 788k sqm (37%) of that, is located in Bucharest. GLA per 1,000 inhabitants of shopping centers in Bucharest is at 243 sqm slightly above the European average of 211 sqm. Bearing in mind that retail area at Sun Plaza amounts to 80k, the shopping center accounts for 10% of total retail stock in Bucharest (regarding shopping centers, shopping galleries, retail parks and factory outlets). However, within the market its seems, that large and unique schemes like the Sun Plaza are still performing at satisfying levels, while smaller convenience-based centers are facing difficulties. Besides a weaker purchasing power additional pressure on rents results from existing pipeline for new retail space . Across Romania schemes

under planing account for 780k sqm new retail space . But the vast majority of projects (609k sqm) is temporarily stopped while only 10% of total pipeline (123k sqm) was still under construction in the mid of 2010.

Prime rents for a mid-size shop in a prime shopping mall in Bucharest are at an average rate of Euro 68 / sqm per month (3Q 2010) while prime rental rates for an on street location in Bucharest is in average at Euro 70 / sqm per month. To calculate the market value of the Sun Plaza, we calculate huge discounts on prime retail yield and prime rent and assume an average rent per sqm of Euro 29 and a yield of 10.5%. That implies a current market value of Sun Plaza (only retail part) based on our assumptions of Euro 257m respictively 259m including the office part. When S IMMO achieves significant success in terms of office letting, total market value is supposed to reveal that.

Completions in 1Q 2010 - Serdika Center in Sofia The Serdika Center is located in the east part of the Bulgarian capital Sofia on the Sitnyakovo Blvd. . The largest project in S IMMO’s company history has an investment volume of Euro 210m and opened its doors mid of March 2010. The project is a joint venture with well-known Hamburg-based ECE center manager and has 210 stores and about 51k sqm retail space on three levels which is fully let. Above the shopping floors there is 30k sqm of modern class A office space which is supposed to be completed at the beginning of 2011. Serdika Center is so far the only accomplished property of S IMMO in Bulgaria. Furthermore its is the second largest shopping center in Sofia after “The Mall” which has a GLA of 66k

sqm. After six quarters of recession Bulgarian’s economy is still awaiting its recovery. Turnovers of retailers continue to decrease. Pressure on rents is high while the development pipeline of new retail stock is very huge compared to the existing stock. Total retail stock under construction in Bulgaria amounts to 401k sqm while the overall existing modern shopping center stock in the country is only some 519k sqm. Thereof about 75k sqm of modern retail space are under construction in Sofia whereas the existing stock amounts to 212k sqm.

In addition some 540k sqm are planned in Sofia but its realization is rather unsure on account of uncertainty in the market and lack of retailers willing to expand their business. Thus, it is likely that various shopping centers will never be completed or build. Vacancy levels in the shopping centers through out the country are at present at uncomfortable 17% whereas in Sofia vacancy is at satisfying 5% in particular when compared to locations like Varna (28%) or Plovdiv (47%). The average gross leasable area (GLA) per 1,000 inhabitants in terms of shopping centers is at 67 sqm across Bulgaria which is clear below the EU Average of 210 sqm. But when looking only at the six major cities, GLA per 1,000 inhabitants increases to 185 sqm. To put it in a nutshell, the retail situation in Sofia in terms of shopping centers is at present stressed but not disastrous like in Varna or Plovdiv. The clear advantage of S IMMO is, that Serdika Center belongs to the shopping centers already opened operating with a satisfying occupancy rate. Much more difficult is the situation for shopping centers under construction, as the absorbtion of new retail space is in the current environment is quite difficult and additional retail space would broaden the space oversupply. Furthermore Sofia is according to market data as retail location compared to other major cities still the best choice in Bulgaria. GLA per 1000 inhabitants is about 170 sqm, which is a healthy level. This might change if all planned shopping centers will be realized.

Shopping centers currenty under construction in Sofia will bring up GLA to 205 sqm / 1,000 inhabitants when accomplished. That indicates still a comfortable level and might not bring vacancy to rise significantly. But shopping centers planned in Sofia have the potential to boost GLA /1,000 to a level of 590 sqm /1,000 which would destroy the market although the retail purchasing power is the highest when compared to other major Bulgarian cities but clearly lower compared to the EU average.

Prime rents for a mid-size shop in a prime shopping mall in Sofia could be rented at an average rate of Euro 39 / sqm per month (2H 2010) while prime rental rates for a high street location in Sofia is in average at Euro 72 / sqm per month. To calculate the market value of the Serdika Center, we assume a retail yield for shopping centers of 10%. That implies a market value of Serdika Center based on present market conditions in the area of Euro 170m to Euro 180m.

Furthermore a large office unit of 28k sqm named Serdika Offices will be completed this year. Located in Midtown Sofia, the offices are connected to the Serdika shopping center and are rated class A. In fact, the office market in Sofia is difficult and characterized by a significant imbalance between supply and demand.

Total office stock in Sofia amounts to 1.3m sqm while an estimated 496k is under construction inflating the oversupply. Indeed, new construction deliveries are at least for the last two years clearly higher than the net absorbtion. Thus, average vacancy is quite high at 19.2% (3Q 2010). A satisfying vacancy level is only to find in the CBD area (7.4%) while the Midtown area, which is relevant for the Serdika, has a vacancy of 15.8%. Two years ago vacancy level in Midtown was below 5%

but since then, office space oversupply and economic slowdown showed its negative impact on the real estate market. Accordingly asking rents for Class A office space further decreases to a level of Euro 11 to Euro 12 per sqm.

In case of a full occupancy that would imply an annual rent in the area of Euro 3.0m to Euro 3.3m for Serdika Offices in the current market environment, without considering incentives like discounts or rent free periods. Prime Office yields for Class A offices increased to a current level of 10% to 10.5% (3Q 2010). That implies a market value of Serdika Offices based on present market conditions in the area of Euro 28m to Euro 32m.

From todays point of view a quick recovery to old price and lease levels is unlikely because a substantial growth in take up and demand cannot be expected on account of the uncertainty linked to the economic recovery. In addition, several buildings are scheduled for completion in the next months which keeps pressure on rents and vacancy. Therefore the outlook in short-term for the office market in Sofia is not to promising.

Acquisitions in 4Q 2010 - Viertel Zwei in Vienna

In December 2010 S IMMO announced the closing of an acquisition of three properties in Vienna named Hoch Zwei, Plus Zwei and Hotel Zwei. All three properties are located in the new urban district Viertel Zwei which is a part of the Prater area where usually rents are achieved in the range of Euro 10 to Euro 19 per sqm.

The two buildings Hoch Zwei and Viertel Zwei are being used by OMV AG as headquarters and have long-term lease contracts (We assume at least 10 years). OMV AG is Austria's largest oil-producing, refining and gas station operating company with important activities in other Central European countries. Furthermore it is Austria's largest listed industrial company (in terms of turnover) and one of the largest integrated oil and gas groups in Central Europe. Hence, a very strong and reliable tenant.

Hoch Zwei was completed in 2008, has a GLA of 27,000 sqm while construction costs amount to some Euro 90m. Plus Zwei is the neighboring building having a GLA of 14,000 sqm. Hence, OMV has a total GLA of 41,000 in office space for its purposes. Hotel Zwei is being operated as four-star Courtyard by Marriott benefitting from its location next to the Vienna faire. We assume the hotel is being operated on the basis of a management contract as usual for Mariott hotels.

The Vienna office market is a very solid market with limited volatility and risk. Therefore prime yield was after 3Q 2010 at 5.4% while prime rent is stable at Euro 22.25 / sqm / month. Total office stock in Vienna amounts to some 10.2m sqm by end of 3Q 2010 with a moderate vacancy rate at 5.1% indicating a balanced demand and supply.

S IMMO holds in its portfolio more than 20 office properties located in Vienna comprising a GLA of c. 80k sqm. The new acquisition expands this engagement to c. 120k. In terms of size the new properties are the first larger properties as the exisiting ones have in average a GLA in between 1,500 sqm and 8,000 sqm.

We believe that the uniqueness and exceptionality of the two new properties and their favorable location helps to achieve an above market rent. We assume for our market value calculation Vienna’s current rent of Euro 18.00. That would imply an annual rent of about Euro 10m for Hoch Zwei and Plus Zwei while we estimate the market value of both objects at Euro 154m assuming a yield of 5.75%.

The Courtyard Hotel by Marriott has 251 rooms. It is S IMMO’s second Marriott Hotel in Vienna. When assuming an occupancy of 50%, which is not very ambitious, and a room price per night of moderate Euro 125, annual rent amounts to Euro 5.7m. That would imply a fair value for the property of Euro 52m on ther basis of a yield of 11%.

Completions in 4Q 2010 - Neutor 1010 Neutor 1010 was opened in 4Q 2010 and is a residential and office property located in Vienna’s inner district (CBD) where highest rents were achieved in the range in between Euro 12.00 to Euro 22.25. The property provides a total of 11,000 sqm usable space while the investment volume amounted to Euro 55m. The ground floor and next three floors provide retail and office utilization with 5,000 sqm of available space. The upper floors contain 34 luxury apartments thereof 27 had already been sold.

Completions in 4Q 2010 - Galvaniho 4 in Bratislava

Galvaniho 4 is an office building located in the outer city area of Bratislava next to the Bratislava Airport. The building was completed in 4Q 2010 and has a GLA of 23,700 sqm for office and retail utilization. Total investment volume amounted to Euro 45m. According to S Immo Galvaniho 4 is nearly fully let, we assume in our calculations an occupancy of 90%.

Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, has a population of about 431k and is also the country’s largest city. Indeed, Bratislava and Vienna are two of the closest European national capitals to each other, at less than 60 kilometres apart.

Modern office stock in the city amounts to 1.37m sqm. Thereof the city centre submarket accounts for 31.6% of modern office space, the inner city submarket for the largest share of 44.7% and the outer city submarket, where Galvaniho 4 is located, has a share of 23.8% which is 325k sqm in office space. Vacancy is in average at 13.6% but in the outer city submarket somewhat lower at 12.3%. A further decrease of city-wide vacancy is expected. Prime rent is stable at Euro 16.50/sqm/month. Supply and take-up shows a healthy balance and should back a further improvement of keyfigures in the long-run when economy keeps on to recover. New office stock supply remains very limited with many developers requiring substantial pre-lease agreements (above 50%) before commencing construction.

However, the office building Galvaniho 4 is next to Galvaniho 1 (GLA: 8,553 sqm) and Galvaniho 2 (GLA: 13,026 sqm) which are also two succesful developments of the company and are both fully let. In addition, the Austria Trend Hotel Vysoka is located in Bratislava’s city center which also belongs to S IMMO’s property portfolio. Furthermore the company ownes two retail parks outside Bratislava in Trencin (GLA: 11,954 sqm) and Prievidza (GLA: 13,736 sqm), two provincial towns, located on the Northwest of Slovakia. Therefore six properties are for the time being located in Slovakia comprising a GLA of almost 85k sqm.

The firm has a well diversified portfolio with a total of 249 properties and a rental space

of ~ 1,400k sqm amounting to a value of Euro 1.9bn. The properties are located across eight countries. A focus is on Germany and Austria while the other countries are located in CEE and SEE, thus geographical diversification is relatively high. Furthermore the portfolio is well diversified in terms of its type of use. Residential, office, retail and ho-tels are covered thus most major types of use are provided. In addition, all shares of each sector are well balanced. However we assume that this kind of portfolio will attract more the general equity investors than specialized investors that might be more focused on “Pure-Plays” (only residential or only commercial).

The huge landmark shopping malls Sun Plaza (Bukarest, Romania) with 71k sqm shop-

ing area and Serdika Center (Sofia, Bulgaria) with 51k sqm shopping area started to run in 1Q 2010 and will bring up 2010 top-line by at least Euro 21m. From 2011 on we ex-pect > Euro 26m per year alone from the shopping space of Sun Plaza and Serdika. And there is still ~40k sqm office space available for more rental upside even if demand is weak at present.

The occupancy rate of the total portfolio is almost unchanged at very comfortable 90%

providing a stable rental income while the loan-to-value ratio of 56% underlines a solid financing structure.

Two of the largest financial services firms in Austria/ CEE, Erste Bank and Vienna

Insurance, are the largest shareholders accounting for 9% and 10% of the shares. Both shareholders have a positive effect on the business

NAV per share slightly climbed again to now € 8.27 (3Q) after € 8.23 in 2Q. Cash and cash equivalents amount to Euro 112m covering some 5% of total balance.

Granulated tenant structure. The Top 25 tenants count only for 40% of yearly rental

income. Furthermore the majority of rental contracts is long-term.

Although S IMMO is present on the stock market since 1987 the awareness for the success story at the equity markets is still not too high in our view

There are participation certificates in the financing structure with a hybrid character

between equity and liability. This form of financing is unusual to many international in-vestors. Thus we like the plan of S IMMO to tender these papers into normal equity stock shares until year-end 2011 in three steps. Unfortunately there was no 75% majority for this proposal on the AGM on 21 May

S IMMO will be able to show a steep rise in operating cash flows from approx. Euro 50m 2009 to Euro 75m – 85m in the current year 2010 and even more than Euro 100m in the next year 2011 as many developments are completed.

With a look at fund investors they have all big pockets to invest in 2010 and following

years in stable cash-flow objects and have a special eye on mixed retail and office prop-erties like S IMMO offers

In case of a sustained recession, vacancy rate could increase or rentals for coming tenants could be lower than before. Furthermore an economic downturn could have a negative impact on the valuation of the property portfolio leading to valuation losses burdening P&L (but there were no significant revaluation losses in the past 3 quarters and climate in many markets improved or is at least stable now).
