HAMBORNER REIT AG - Purchase agreement for OBI DIY store in Hamburg signed

- Investment of funds from capital increase progresses as planned

- Investment volume of approximately EUR17.2 million

Duisburg, 25 September 2012 - The investment of funds from the capital increase at HAMBORNER REIT AG is continuing to make rapid progress. Following the acquisition of an E-Center in Tübingen at the end of August, the company has now signed the purchase agreement for an OBI DIY store in Hamburg.

The property with rental space of around 10,000 square metres is currently under construction. It is located in a business area at the main traffic artery of Sander Damm/Kurt A.-Körber-Chaussee in the Bergedorf district, roughly 15 kilometres from Hamburg city centre. The DIY store operator OBI has concluded a 15-year rental agreement for this location, which is scheduled for completion in late 2013.

The seller of the property is a project company of Procom, a Hamburg-based project developer that has been successfully conducting project development and investment activities on the German market nationwide for almost three decades. The project was brokered by the agent IAM Immobilien Asset Management, also based in Hamburg. The purchase price for the property is approximately EUR17.2 million and the gross initial yield is around 7.3%.

HAMBORNER REIT AG intends to continue its expansion in the asset classes of retail and office properties. As such, the acquisition of the properties in Tübingen and Hamburg is consistent with the company's growth-oriented strategic approach.
