Further information:

MAGNAT Real Estate Opportunities GmbH & Co. KGaA is a property company
focusing on real estate development in Central and Eastern European
countries.

The mission of MAGNAT is to capitalize on the inefficiencies that are
inherent to real estate markets, to the benefit of its shareholders. In
contrast to traditional real estate investors, MAGNAT's business model is
not only based on rental income, but first and foremost on attractive
development returns and a high turnover rate of its investments (holding
period approx. 1-3 years). Returns on projects are required to exceed
industry-standard average rates for traditional real estate investments.
The management concentrates on real estate markets with specifically
interesting cycles: undervalued markets (anti-cyclical investing) and
markets with strong economic growth (growth markets). Therefore, the main
focus is currently on Central, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe and on
special opportunities also in the 'home markets' Germany and Austria.
