Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear shareholders, business partners and tenants,

In the third quarter of 2012, alstria's operating development continued its positive trend. Despite an expected slowdown in the German economy, the leasing market remains positive and rental levels tend to be stable. As we never believed in market growth, but in value creation through active asset management, we see the Company perfectly positioned to benefit from today's market environment. Our strategy's success is supported by our numbers. The FFO per share grew by 14% to EUR 0.41 in the first nine months of 2012 compared to the same period last year. As the third quarter of 2012 was the first reporting period that fully benefitted from our most recent acquisitions, we were able to further improve our profitability, driving our FFO margin up by more than 4 percentage points to 43%.

Our real estate operations performed well and the leasing result 2012 we expect to achieve around the record levels of last year. As per end of September 2012, 21,000 sqm of new leases were signed and existing leases for 42,500 sqm were extended. Specifically, we were able to reduce the vacancy in our recently acquired buildings by 15%, generating an increase in rental income from this portfolio of more than 5%.

The strong operating performance is also reflected in the Company's numbers. Our revenues in the first nine months of 2012 were up by 12.7% to EUR 75.1 m and our FFO increased even stronger by 25.2% to EUR 32.0 m. The disproportionately higher increase of our FFO is a result of our revenue growth, sub-proportional growth of financing costs and economies of scale, as our operating costs were flat compared to last year.

With regard to our balance sheet, we have recently secured a new EUR 42.5 m loan in order to finance the newly acquired DIVE portfolio. The loan has a seven year term and an all-in cost of around 2.6%.

We maintain our revenue expectations for the year at EUR 100 m. However, based on the results of the first nine month we are able to detail our FFO expectations for 2012 at EUR 43 m. Accordingly, we are expecting an FFO growth of almost 25% (13% on a per share basis) compared to the prior year.

Kind regards

Olivier Elamine Alexander Dexne

share price development

Continuing uncertainty about the further development of the European sovereign debt crisis impacted the stock market in the first nine months of 2012. Strong gains were to be observed in the third quarter, particularly following the announcement of the ECB to do everything necessary to preserve the euro zone and, if needed, to make unlimited purchase of government bonds. The expected start of the ESM in October 2012 caused further relief in the capital markets. The German DAX reached 7,216 points at the end of September 2012 and recorded under a volatile development a positive performance of 22% in the first nine months of 2012.

In the third quarter alstria's shares grew by 9% to EUR 9.11 in line with the overall market, following below-average performance in the first half of 2012. Taking into account the dividend payment in April the total return for alstria shares was 4% in the first nine months of 2012.

The Annual General Meeting of alstria office REIT-AG held on April 24, 2012 resolved to grant a dividend entitlement of EUR 0.44 per share for the financial year 2011. As also the newly issued shares from the executed capital increase were entitled for dividend payments, the total dividend amounted to EUR 34,705 k.

PORTFOLIO OVERVIEW

On September 30, 2012, alstria's portfolio consisted of 83 office properties and one retail property with approximately 927,000 sqm of lettable area and a contractual vacancy rate of 11.2%, based on the tenancy agreements signed up to then. The portfolio was valued at a yield of 6.5% and the remaining weighted average unexpired lease term was approximately 7.2 years. Additionally, alstria is 49% shareholder in two joint ventures.

For a detailed description of the alstria portfolio, please refer to the Annual Report 2011 (Part I/II - Company Report, pp. 42 to 61).

Transactions

In February 2012, alstria signed a binding and notarised agreement for the sale of one asset in Nuremberg. The transfer of benefits and burden took place on April 1, 2012.

In the first quarter of 2012, alstria successfully executed a capital increase and placed 7,170,362 new ordinary bearer shares, increasing its nominal share capital from EUR 71,703,625 to EUR 78,873,987.

The funds raised through the capital increase – after deduction of fees and expenses in connection with the issuance – have been used to finance the equity portion of the acquisition of six assets. In February 2012, alstria signed a binding notarised agreement for the acquisition of a portfolio of these six assets, located in Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Neu-Isenburg and Norderstedt (DIVE portfolio). The transfer of benefits and burden took place on May 1, 2012.

In May 2012, alstria signed a binding and notarised agreement for the sale of one asset in Hamburg. The transfer of benefits and burden took place on July 1, 2012.

Additionally, in November 2011, alstria and its joint venture partners in the joint venture "Alte Post" signed a binding and notarised agreement for the disposal of the "Alte Post"-property. This asset was transferred to the new owner in March 2012.

alstria's strong growth was partially based on the acquired assets in the Düsseldorf market. To maintain an appropriate asset and portfolio management, we established an office in this German metropolis in July 2012.

Asset Management

In the first three quarters of 2012 alstria's asset management was successful with respect to re-letting vacant areas. alstria signed new leases* totalling approx. 20,900 sqm in the first three quarters of 2012.

Due to these activities the vacancy rate decreased from 11.5% on June 30, 2012 to 11.2% or around 103,000 sqm. Of this 103,000 sqm, around 33,600 sqm represents strategic vacancy (intended vacancy of e.g. development projects implemented by alstria as part of modernisation measures for certain assets), while the remainder are operational vacancies.

* New leases correspond to lease of vacant space. It does not account for any lease renewal, prolongation or tenant exercise of renewal option.

Tenants and utilisation

The key focus on a small number of anchor tenants remains one of the main characteristics of alstria's portfolio. About 72% of total rental revenues are generated by alstria's top ten tenants. The 2012 portfolio also reflects the clear focus on one single asset class: offices. These make up 93% of the total lettable area.

EARNINGS POSITION

Revenues increased due to portfolio growth

Revenues increased in the first three quarters of 2012 by 12.7% compared to the first three quarters of 2011 due to the acquisition of six assets. Revenues amounted to EUR 75,089 k (Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 66,626 k) with real estate operating expenses of around 11.0% of revenues at EUR 8,327 k (Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 6,102 k or 9.1% of revenues). As a consequence of the consolidation of the new assets, net rental income increased by EUR 6,204 k to EUR 66,711 k compared to the first three quarters of 2011.

Administrative expenses and personnel expenses for the reporting period decreased by EUR 569 k to EUR 9,294 k (Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 9,863 k). In the first three quarters of 2012 total operating expenses amounted to 12.4% of total revenues (Q1- Q3 2011: 14.8%).

alstria closed the first three quarters of 2012 with a net operating result of EUR 60,291 k. This compares to a consolidated result of EUR 51,573 k in the first three quarters of the previous year. The increase in the net operating result is mainly due to higher revenues and lower operating expenses in the first three quarters of 2012.

1 Non-cash income or expenses and non-recurring effects.

2 (A)FFO is not a measure of operating performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles, in particular IFRS, and should not be considered as an alternative to the Company's income or cash-flow measures as determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, no standard definition exists for (A)FFO. Thus, the (A)FFO or measures with similar names as presented by other companies may not necessarily be comparable to alstria's (A)FFO.

3 The AFFO is equal to the FFO with adjustments made for capital expenditures used to maintain the quality of the underlying investment portfolio.

Funds from operations (FFO) amount to EUR 32,025 k for the reporting period compared to EUR 25,587 k in the first three quarters of the 2011 financial year. The increase is mainly due to higher revenues of EUR 8,463 k (Q1-Q3 2012: EUR 75,089 k; Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 66,626 k).

As a result, FFO per share was EUR 0.41 in the first nine months of 2012 (Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 0.36).

Hedging Instruments

alstria uses hedge accounting on qualifying hedges in order to limit the impact on profit and loss of the volatility of interest rate markets. This allows alstria to recognise losses or gains on the qualifying part of the derivatives through the equity cash flow hedge reserve with no effect on income. For more details, please refer to the notes to the consolidated financial statements of the annual report as at December 31, 2011.

A decrease of EUR 7,250 k of changes in fair values of derivatives effective in a cash flow hedge has been recognised in the hedging reserve in the first nine months of 2012 (Q1-Q3 2011: decrease of EUR 14,532 k).

The ineffective portion recognised in the profit or loss that arises from cash flow hedges amounted to a fair value loss of EUR 823 k (Q1-Q3 2011: gain of EUR 2,685 k). Further gains totalling EUR 726 k (Q1-Q3 2011: gain of EUR 645 k) due to the market valuation of derivatives not included in hedge accounting were recognised in the income statement.

A loss of EUR 717 k (Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 1,092 k) relates to the cumulative losses from cash flow hedges for which the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur due to premature repayment of the loans.

Together, this results in a loss of EUR 815 k (Q1-Q3 2011: gain of EUR 2,238) which is shown as net result from fair value adjustments on financial derivatives.

Net financing result –27,453 –26,188 4.8%

As at September 30, 2012 alstria was not in breach of any of its financial covenants.

Net financing costs increased by EUR 1,265 k to EUR 27,453 k in comparison with the first three quarters of 2011. The increase is attributable to an increased average loan level compared to the previous reporting period.

Increase in consolidated net result driven by higher revenues and lower operating costs

The resulting consolidated net result amounts to EUR 32,526 k (Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 27,584 k). The main reason for the increase in the consolidated net result compared to the same period in 2011 is based on higher revenues (Q1-Q3 2012: EUR 75,089 k; Q1-Q3 2011: EUR 66,626 k) and lower operating costs (Q1-Q3 2012: EUR 9,294 k; Q1–Q3 2011: EUR 9,863 k).

Earnings per share are EUR 0.42 for the first nine months of 2012.

FINANCIAL AND ASSET POSITION

Financial management

alstria's financial management is carried out at corporate level, with individual loans being taken out at property and portfolio level. The main goal of alstria's financial policy is the establishment of secured, long-term structures to support the development of its business whilst providing the required degree of flexibility. Corporate management of debt financing forms the basis for harmonised capital procurement, optimised management of interest and liquidity risks and efficiency improvements for the whole Group.

In conjunction with the disposal of two assets EUR 5,064 k of the syndicated loan has been repaid in the first half of 2012. Following the acquisition of the DIVE portfolio for EUR 95 m in early 2012, alstria successfully closed the financing of the transaction on August 27, 2012 with effect from October 1, 2012. The bullet loan has a total amount of EUR 42.5 m and a term of seven years, and has not been drawn down at reporting date.

Cash position is EUR 70,080 k

Cash flows from operating activities for the first nine months amounted to EUR 34,917 k. The significant increase compared to the same reporting period in 2011 (EUR 28,742 k) resulted mainly from higher rental revenues and lower payments for interest expenses due to a change in interest payment dates.

The cash flow from investing activities is impacted by the cash outflows resulting from the acquisitions of the DIVE portfolio and investments in existing properties (cash outflow EUR 103,607 k). Cash inflows of EUR 8,542 k relate to payments received for the sale of two office properties. Proceeds from the equity release of interests in joint ventures generated cash inflows in an amount of EUR 23,276 k.

The cash flows from financing activities mainly reflect the proceeds from shares issued in an amount of EUR 59,756 k net and the dividend payment (EUR 34,705 k). Furthermore cash outflows were made for the acquisition and termination of financial derivatives (EUR 8,104 k) and in an amount of EUR 7,155 k for the redemption of loans.

As a result, alstria ended the first three quarters of 2012 with a cash position of EUR 70,080 k (September 30, 2011: EUR 34,696 k).

Investment properties up by 6.6%

The total value of investment property at reporting date amounts to EUR 1,629,905 k in comparison with EUR 1,528,589 k at the beginning of the

If the current number of shares is taken as a basis for the calculation as at December 31, 2011, this results in a NNNAV per share of EUR 9.73. The increase to EUR 10.37 per share mirrors the specified increase of total equity. Interim Management Report

financial year. The increase of investment property is particular based on the acquisition of six assets in Düsseldorf, Frankfurt am Main, Neu-Isenburg and Norderstedt (DIVE portfolio). Reclassifications of EUR 606 k refer to the area of the property Friedrichstrasse in Düsseldorf which has been partially occupied by alstria for its own use since July 2012.

Interests in joint ventures refer to the at-equity method consolidation of two joint venture companies.

The G-REIT equity ratio which is defined as total equity divided by immovable assets is 49.5% (December 31, 2011: 48.7%). According to the G-REIT Act (REIT-Gesetz – REITG), the minimum requirement for compliance with G-REIT criteria is an equity ratio of 45% calculated at the end of the financial year.

Long-term loans remain stable

EUR 819,618 k.**

After the drawdown of two new loans in late-2011, in the first three quarters of 2012 the longterm loans remained relatively stable (September 30, 2012: EUR 847,916 k; December 31, 2011: EUR 854,814 k). The slight decrease is mainly a result of the repayment of EUR 5,064 k of the syndicated loan in conjunction with the disposal of one asset in Nuremberg and one asset in Hamburg.

Following the capital increase at the end of the first quarter 2012, equity increased as against December 2011. Due to a decline in fair value of financial instruments, the hedging reserve decreased by EUR 6,533 k from EUR –17,760 k as at December 31, 2011 to EUR –24,293 k as at September 30, 2012. The consolidated profit for the period resulted in equity growth of EUR 32,526 k. In total, this leads to an increase in equity from EUR 51,423 k to

Increase in current liabilities

Current liabilities increased by 13.9% to EUR 24,278 k, which is mainly linked to the rise in current loans and other current liabilities. These other current liabilities, amounting to EUR 11,165 k mainly comprise accruals for outstanding invoices (EUR 4,057 k), deferred income (EUR 2,671 k) and other accruals (EUR 4,437 k).

RISK AND OPPORTUNITY REPORT

The risks and opportunities to which alstria is exposed are described in detail in the Annual Report 2011. There have been no changes to the status in that report.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND OUTLOOK

Following the acquisition of the DIVE portfolio for EUR 95 m in early 2012, alstria successfully closed the financing of the transaction with effect from October 1, 2012. The bullet loan has a total amount of EUR 42.5 m and a term of seven years. Until reporting date, the loan has not been drawn down. alstria intends to draw dawn the loan at the latest by the end of December 2012.

In October 2012, alstria signed a binding and notarised agreement for the sale of one asset in Dresden.The transfer of benefits and burden will presumably take place in the beginning of 2013.

Financial guidance

Based on the results of the first nine months of 2012, alstria expects revenues of around EUR 100 m and an increase in funds from operations (FFO) of around 25& to EUR 43 m for the year 2012.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as at September 30, 2012

1 Corporate information

alstria office REIT-AG, Hamburg, (hereinafter referred to as the 'Company' or 'alstria office REIT-AG' and, together with its subsidiaries, as 'alstria' or the 'Group'), is a German stock corporation ('Aktiengesellschaft') registered in Hamburg. The Group's principal activities are described in detail in section 1 of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2011.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from January 1, 2012 to September 30, 2012 (hereinafter referred to as the 'consolidated interim financial statements') were authorised for issue by resolution of the Company's management board on November 1, 2012.

2 Basis of preparation

These consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. They do not contain all of the disclosures and explanations required in annual financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2011.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been audited.

3 Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those policies applied in the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, as outlined in those annual financial statements.

The following new interpretations and amendments to standards and interpretations are mandatory for the first time for the financial reporting period beginning January 1, 2012:

› Amendments to IFRS 7 'Financial instruments: Disclosures', issued October 7, 2010. The amendments are applicable to financial years starting on or after July 1, 2011. The amendments require enhanced derecognition disclosures in case of transfer transactions of certain financial assets. As transfer transactions of financial assets are not a

normal part of alstria's business, these amendments have no significant influence on alstria's financial reporting.

The initial application of the newly applied IFRS does not have any material effect on the presentation of the consolidated interim financial statements.

The following new standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards have been issued but are not effective for the financial year 2012 and have not been applied by the Group before they are mandatory:

  • › IFRS 9 'Financial instruments'; new standard issued November 12, 2009. The standard addresses the classification and measurement of financial assets and is likely to affect the Group's accounting of financial assets. Application of the standard is not mandatory until January 1, 2015. But subject to EU endorsement, the standard is available for early adoption. The Group has not yet assessed the full impact of IFRS 9.
  • › IIFRS 10 'Consolidated financial statements'; new standard issued on May 12, 2011. The objective of IFRS 10 is to establish principles for the presentation and preparation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. The standard supersedes the guidelines on consolidation as outlined in the present IAS 27 'Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements'' and SIC-12 'Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities'. IFRS 10 is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013*. It is not expected that the application of the new standard will lead to a change in the basis of consolidation of the Group.
  • › IFRS 11 'Joint arrangements'; new standard issued on May 12, 2011. The core principle of IFRS 11 is that a party to a joint arrangement determines the type of joint arrangement in which it is involved by assessing its rights and obligations, and accounts for those rights and obligations, in accordance with that type of joint arrangement. The standard supersedes IAS 31 'Interests in Joint Ventures' and SIC-13 'Jointly Controlled Entities – Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers'. IFRS 11 is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013*. It is not expected that the application of the new standard will lead to a change in the accounting for joint ventures.

26

  • › IFRS 12 'Disclosures of interests in other entities'; new standard issued on May 12, 2011. The objective of IFRS 12 is to require the disclosure of information that enables users of financial statements to evaluate the nature of, and risks associated with, the interests in other entities and the effects of those interests on their financial position, financial performance and cash flows. IFRS 12 is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013*. The Group has not yet assessed the full impact of IFRS 12.
  • › IAS 27 'Separate financial statements'; new revised standard issued on May 12, 2011. IAS 27 (revised 2011) has the objective of setting standards to be applied in accounting for investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associates when an entity elects, or is required by local regulations, to present separate (non-consolidated) financial statements. IAS 27 (2011) together with IFRS 10 'Consolidated Financial Statements' supersedes the previous version of IAS 27 (2008) 'Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements' including the related interpretation SIC-12 'Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities'. IAS 27 (revised 2011) is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013*. Since none of alstria's Group companies prepares single entity financial statements in accordance with IFRS, no impact on accounting is expected as a result of the revised standard.
  • › IAS 28 'Investments in associates and joint ventures'; new standard issued May 12, 2011. The objective of IAS 28 (revised 2011) is to prescribe the accounting for investments in associates, and to set out the requirements for the application of the equity method when accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures. IAS 28 (2011), together with IFRS 12 'Disclosures of interests in other entities', supersedes the previous version of IAS 28 (2008) 'Investments in Associates'. IAS 28 (revised 2011) is applicable to financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2013*. It is not expected that the application of the new standard will lead to a change in the accounting for joint ventures.
  • › An entity may apply the aforementioned standards IFRS 10 'Consolidated Financial Statements', IFRS 11 'Joint Arrangements', IFRS 12 'Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities', IAS 27 'Separate Financial Statements (2011)' and IAS 28 'Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures 2011' to an earlier accounting period, but if it elects to do this prematurely, it must adopt all standards together.

  • › IFRS 13 'Fair value measurement'; new standard issued on May 12, 2011. IFRS 13 defines fair value; it sets out in a single IFRS a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. IFRS 13 applies when another IFRS requires or permits fair value measurements or disclosures about fair value measurements (and measurements, such as fair value less costs to sell, based on fair value or disclosures about those measurements), except for share-based payment transactions within the scope of IFRS 2 'Share-based Payment', leasing transactions within the scope of IAS 17 'Leases', measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in IAS 2 'Inventories', or value in use in IAS 36 'Impairment of Assets'. IFRS 13 is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Group has not yet assessed the full impact of IFRS 13.

  • › Amendments to IFRS 1 'Severe hyperinflation and removal of fixed dates for first-time adopters', issued on December 20, 2010. The amendment will be applicable for financial years starting on July 1, 2011 or later. Since alstria has no exposure to hyperinflation markets, the amendments will have no effect on alstria's financial reporting.
  • › Amendment to IFRS 1 with regard to government grants with interest rates not in line with market level. The Amendment was published on March 13, 2012 and will give first-time adopters the same relief to recognition and measurement of government grants as existing preparers. The amendment applies to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and will have no effect on the Group's financial reporting.
  • › The IASB has revised the requirements for offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities and as a result, published amendments to IAS 32 'Financial instruments: presentation' and IFRS 7 'financial instruments: disclosure'. The current offsetting model in IAS 32 has been basically maintained and was solely substantiated by additional application guidance, which applies to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.

A new feature is the IFRS 7 disclosure requirements inserted in connection with certain settlement agreements. The amendments to IFRS 7 are to apply retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Impact from these changes may result in terms of reporting in the event that there is a netting agreement.

  • › Amendments to IFRS 10 'Consolidated financial statements', IFRS 11 'Joint arrangements', and IFRS 12 'Disclosures of interests in other entities' – Transition Guidance. The amendments will clarify the transition guidance in IFRS 10 and grants additional relief in all three standards. The amendments are applicable – similar to IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 - to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013*.
  • › Amendments to IAS 1 'Presentation of financial statements'. On June 16, 2011, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) published amendments to IAS 1. The amendments to IAS 1 retain the 'one or two statement' approach at the option of the entity and only revise the way other comprehensive income is presented, requiring separate subtotals for those elements which may be 'recycled', and those elements that will not. The amendments are applicable to annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are not expected to affect presentation of the Group's financial statements.
  • › Amendment to IAS 12 'Deferred tax: Recovery of underlying assets', issued on December 20, 2010. This amendment, which will have no impact on the financial reporting of alstria is generally to apply from January 1, 2012, but to date the endorsement by the EU is still pending.
  • › Amendments to IAS 19 'Employee benefits'. On June 16, 2011, the IASB published amendments to IAS 19, implementing new reporting procedures on employee benefits. The amendments are applicable to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are not expected to affect presentation of the Group's financial reporting.
  • › IFRIC 20 'Stripping costs in the production phase of a surface mine': IFRIC 20 considers when and how to account separately for benefits arising from the stripping activities in surface mining operations. IFRIC 20 applies to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The interpretation has no relevance for the Group.
  • › The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued 'Annual Improvements 2009-2011', a collection of amendments to IFRSs, in response to issues addressed during the 2009–2011 cycle. Five

standards (IFRS 1, IAS 1, IAS 16, IAS 32 and IAS 34) are primarily affected by the amendments, with consequential amendments to numerous others. The improvements apply to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and will be of only minor, if any, relevance for the Group

4 Consolidated group

Two new entities – a limited partnership ('Kommanditgesellschaft'), alstria office Portfolio 2 GmbH & Co. KG, Hamburg, and its general partner ('Komplementärin'), alstria Portfolio 2 GP GmbH, Hamburg – were established in the first quarter of 2012. As fully-owned affiliates of alstria office REIT-AG, these companies have been consolidated as part of the alstria Group. During the second quarter a merger agreement between alstria office REIT-AG and alstria Portfolio 2 GP GmbH was closed, leading to the accretion of the alstria Portfolio 2 GP GmbH on alstria office REIT-AG by way of an up-stream merger with an effective date of May 1, 2012.

There have been no further changes to the consolidated Group since the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011.

5 Key judgements and estimates

Preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires assumptions and estimates to be made for various items that have an effect on the amount and disclosure of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual amounts may vary from these estimates.

6 Notes to the Consolidated Income Statement 6.1 Personnel expenses

The personnel expenses shown in the profit and loss account totalling EUR 4,901 k (January 1 to September 30, 2011: EUR 4,483 k) include accrued bonuses in the amount of EUR 847 k (January 1 to September 30, 2011: EUR 720 k). Furthermore, personnel expenses of EUR 447 k (January 1 to September 30, 2011: EUR 429 k) relating to share-based compensation granted to the management are included (see note 11), as are expenses for share-based compensation resulting from the convertible profit participation rights granted to employees in an amount of EUR 483 k (January 1 to September 30, 2011: EUR 321 k).

Net financing result –27,453 –26,188

There were no new loans taken out in the first nine months of 2012. The syndicated loan was amortised in an amount of EUR 5,064 k.

In line with alstria's hedging strategy, the Group entered into a new interest rate forward cap with a notional amount of EUR 47,902 k and a cap rate of 4.6000%. The cap will become effective on July 10, 2013 and expires on October 20, 2015. This transaction became effective as at June 12, 2012.

The interest rate forward cap agreement partially replaced a so far existing interest rate forward swap with a notional amount of EUR 95,000 k, a swap rate of 4.6000% and an initial maturity between July 10, 2013 and October 20, 2015. The forward interest rate swap agreement was terminated in the total notional amount of EUR 95,000 k with effect from June 14, 2012.

6.3 Income taxes

As a consequence of its status as a G-REIT, alstria office REIT-AG is exempt from German corporation tax (Körperschaftsteuer - KSt) and German trade tax (Gewerbesteuer - GewSt).

Minor tax payment obligations may arise for affiliates serving as a general partner of a partnership or REIT Service Companies.
