In the first quarter of 2008, Warimpex Finanz- und Beteiligungs AG was able to
maintain the momentum of the successful financial year 2007, increasing revenues
as well as profit for the period.

Revenues rose by 26% compared to the first quarter of 2007, from EUR 14.5m to
EUR 18.2m, while EBIT increased accordingly from EUR 1.9m to EUR 9.8m. The
profit for the period, at EUR 1.0m, was 874% higher than that achieved in the
first quarter of 2007. Gains from the sale of project companies reached EUR 9.2m
in the reporting period, compared to EUR 2.2m in the same period of 2007.

A further co-investor was brought on board the Airportcity development in St.
Petersburg in the first quarter. UBM AG, which has been entrusted with the
technical planning, acquired a 10% interest in the development company. Warimpex
remains the majority owner with a stake of 50%, while the CA Immo New Europe
Fund holds 25% and St. Petersburg Airport retains an unchanged 15% share.

The joint venture with Louvre Hotels for the development of a chain of budget
hotels has now entered the implementation phase with the acquisition of suitable
sites in Budapest and Zielona Gora, Poland.

As at 31 March 2008 the Warimpex Group portfolio comprised 16 hotels and seven
office properties. The number of available hotel rooms (adjusted for the
proportionate share of ownership) rose by 172 to 2,489, while the total lettable
office space (adjusted for the proportionate share of ownership) remained
unchanged at 27,000 sqm.

The next twelve months will see the completion of the expansion work on the
Airport Hotel Angelo in Bucharest, as well as the opening of the Angelo Hotels
in Munich and Pilsen and the Andel´s Hotels in Berlin and ?ód?. The further
expansion of these two design hotel brands is planned to focus primarily on
secondary metropolitan areas in Central and Eastern Europe.

The current total of 16 development projects - seven of which are already under
construction - creates a solid basis for the further growth of the Warimpex
Group.
