Definitions and method

Definitions

The following value definitions form the basis of the assessment.

The gross market rental value is the amount reasonably owed by the lessee to the
lessor in return for exclusive use of the registered property, assuming the
customary terms and conditions for the type of registered property and assuming
the rental prices usually paid for similar registered properties on the date the
value is determined.

The private sale value, at the buyer's expense, is the price in cash that would
be paid in a private sale of the registered property, when offered in rented
condition and in the manner most suitable for the registered property, after the
best preparation, by the highest bidder, without any interest in the registered
property, on the date the value is determined.

We have also used the following assumptions:

a)           there is a willing buyer;
b)           there is no compulsory or executorial sale due to bankruptcy;
c)
there is a reasonable period in which negotiations on the sale are completed. We
consider this reasonable period to be no more than six months;

d)           the value of the registered property we assessed will remain stable
during that period;
e)
the registered property can be freely offered on the market. It is very
important for potential buyers to be able to learn of the details of the offer
and intended sale through mailings, advertisements and/or the Internet;

f)           no bid will be made by a buyer based on subjective interests;
g)
no exceptions will be made for selling expenses or tax benefits that may arise
on the sale of the registered property;

h)
the registered property is free of mortgages and/or attachments and that there
are none registered;

i)
no improvements and/or repairs have been prescribed or announced by the
government and/or utility companies

The execution value, at the buyer's expense, is the cash price that would be
paid on the date the value is determined by the highest bidder in the case of a
compulsory sale of the registered property at public auction according to local
practice, in which the buyer accepts the registered property in rented
condition, with all associated rights and obligations.

Method

The assessment is based on the following methods.

Rental value capitalisation method

The private sale value, at the buyer's expense, is assessed using the gross
market rental value of the rentable floor area of the registered property, less
property-related business and other expenses. The net market value is
capitalised on the basis of a net yield considered realistic under current
market conditions. The following criteria are also taken into account:

Market:
- supply and demand of comparable registered properties
- yield trend
- inflation forecast
- current interest rate and expected interest trends

Location:
- location factors
- parking options
- infrastructure
- accessibility by public and private transport
- developments (including construction) in comparable registered properties
- general amenities in the vicinity of the registered property

Registered property:
- business and other expenses
- type and date of construction
- quality of structural and technical facilities
- state of repair
- location and appearance
- options for use

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rental revenue vs market rental value
The cash value of the difference between the current rental revenue and the
assessed market rental value is discounted based on the remaining term of the
lease agreements.

Expenses deducted:
Transfer tax, notarial fees and register fees have been deducted.

The cost of vacancy, including lost rent, service charges at the owner's
expense, rental charges, and cost of advertising and brokerage have been taken
into account.

The principles of the value calculations can be found in the calculation models
included in the appendices.

Unattached land
The value of the unattached land has been determined using the real market value
in relation to the options for use and designation.

Calculation of execution value

Calculation of the execution value, at the buyer's expense, assumes the cash
price that the buyer is prepared to pay privately, less expenses and risks for
the buyer in the event of forced sale at auction by execution:

- auction charges
- transfer tax
- bidder premium
- cost of vacating property
- increased notarial fee
- any demands
- cancellation expenses.
