To our shareholders
Dear shareholders, ladies and gentlemen,
Manfred Heiler and Frank Schaich
Our first full year as a listed company was characterized by the heightening of what is now a global financial and economic crisis - and we were not able to escape this crisis unscathed.
Our stable existing business meant that we were well equipped to face this challenge, and we even exceeded our business targets from our ongoing business. However the combination of the market valuation of the properties and other extraordinary factors led to a negative balance of € 18.5 million, which resulted in Fair Value reporting consolidated net losses of € 13.3 million.
We had forecast consolidated earnings of € 3.5 to € 3.7 million, not impacted by market valuations. We were able to record adjusted consolidated earnings of € 5.2 million – mostly due to cost savings and year-to-year cost-shifts.
These mentioned extraordinary factors related to gains from the disposal of properties and the restructuring of financial liabilities, a compensation payment received for the premature cancellation of a general rental agreement and losses from the valuation of properties and interest rate hedges.
Including the reserve for changes in value from the measurement of interest rate hedges of € 4.6 million, the Group's equity thus fell to € 76.8 million. This corresponds to € 8.16 per share in circulation, compared to € 10.06 in the previous year.
The market valuation of our real estate portfolio containing 80 properties as of December 31, 2008, resulted in a downturn to € 244.5 million in the market values due to Fair Value, a non-cash reduction of € 29.3 million compared to the previous year. This was partly offset by a compensation payment received for the premature cancellation of a general rental agreement with the subsidiary IC 07, with the result that the proportionate valuation losses due to Fair Value totaled € 17.5 million (or 6.4 % of the previous year's figure). These writedowns were primarily due to market-related increases in the discount and capitalization interest rates for the real estate valuation performed on a property-by-property basis.
The market valuation of interest rate hedges resulted in charges which were taken directly to consolidated equity or the ongoing earnings with a proportionate amount of € 6 million. At the latest when the hedged loan agreements expire, however, this effect will have a positive impact on equity. In other words: Although they are currently having a negative effect, they will have a positive effect in future.
The gains from the sale of investment properties made a positive contribution. Our subsidiary BBV 06 sold a plot at a profit, and the associated company IC 15 sold an office property on the banks of the river Rhine in Duesseldorf at a price which was around 4 % higher than the last market value identified. However, the sale of an office property owned directly by Fair Value, "Airport Office II", located in the direct proximity of Duesseldorf Airport, made the largest contribution.
This property was acquired during the shell phase last year. We took over the rental risk ourselves, as we were convinced by the location and the demand from tenants. This view proved to be correct. Just three months after on-schedule completion, the property was already fully let in September 2008. We were able to exceed our original forecast for the contractual rent by 9 %. We wanted to verify this success by realizing a profit – in particular given the difficult market environment. That is why we sold the office property at the end of the year for a purchase price of around € 15.3 million to an institutional investor, generating profits recognized in income of € 1 million – or a return of more than 20 % on the capital employed.
The changes in the REIT-G which are anchored in the Jahressteuergesetz 2009 (German Annual Tax Act 2009) mean that minority interests can be included when identifying the REIT equity ratio from fiscal year 2008. This change to the law, which had not been anticipated until the start of December 2008, had a positive impact for Fair Value REIT-AG, in that the Group's equity was significantly higher than the prescribed 45 %, totaling 52 % of immoveable assets within the meaning of Section 15 of the REIT-G.
In total, the net cash provided by operating activities amounted to € 21.5 million. This was coupled with net cash provided by operating activities of € 3.6 million. Of this total amount, € 16.4 million were used to repay liabilities, and increased the Fair Value Group's cash and cash equivalents by € 8.7 million to € 14 million yearon-year. As a result, the Fair Value Group has very solid equity and liquidity – despite the consolidated losses resulting from valuations.
We had intended to pay a dividend for 2008 of € 0.30 to € 0.35 per share in circulation, based on the recognition of profits from sales. Despite the profits from sales actually recorded, we did not achieve this target last fiscal year, as Fair Value REIT-AG's single-entity financial statements (HGB) – decisive for the divident payment – were both directly and indirectly depressed by the market valuation of property as of December 31, 2008.
Extraordinary write-downs to lower market values were needed for individual properties, as the reduction was deemed to be permanent. This led to losses under commercial law at a subsidiary level, and also led to individual carrying amounts for our participations being written down. We had expected a discrepancy in 2008 between the cash flow from participations and its impact on income as a result of the fact that we only commenced our activities at midnight on September 30, 2007. However, we were only able to recognize in income € 3.3 million of the fund distributions received with a total amount of € 5.9 million.
In total, we recorded net income for the year (HGB) of € 0.38 million, which was used in an identical amount via the formation of a reinvestment reserve within the meaning of Section 13 of the REIT-G. That means that we cannot consider paying a dividend for fiscal year 2008.
Expecting that there will be no profits from portfolio dispositions for the current fiscal year as a result of the current situation on the market, we believe that we will also unlikely be able to pay a dividend for 2009.
The portfolio of real estate held by the Group and our associated companies is characterized by very low vacancy rates and highly predictable rental income. At present, the income-based occupancy totals 95% of the potential rent attributable to Fair Value, and the average remaining term of the rental agreements is 6.9 years. Just 7% of the rental volume is due for follow-on leases in 2009 and 2010.
As the portfolio currently comprises 80 commercial properties located throughout Germany, we are relatively independent of regional developments. In addition, as a result of the diversified and solid tenant structure, we also anticipate a high degree of security against defaults in future.
Based on our equity ratio according to the REIT-G of 52% of immoveable assets as well as cash and cash equivalents in the Group of € 14 million we believe to be well equipped for facing the demands imposed by the current market environment.
Our borrowing is also very solid: Financial liabilities at the AG and the subsidiaries total € 94 million, and of this total 83% is non-current. Just € 13.5 million or 14% are scheduled to be extended this year, and this figure will total € 2.7 million in 2010.
Financial liabilities at the associated companies total € 261 million (Fair Value's theoretical share totals € 95 million). Of this total 95% are non-current and 5% are current. Of the current liabilities of € 13.4 million, two thirds are scheduled repayments and one third or € 5.9 million relate to expiring loans. There are only scheduled repayments in 2010.
If business in fiscal year 2009 is in line with forecast, we expect consolidated earnings (IFRS) in a bandwidth of € 2.7 million to € 3.0 million, and earnings in 2010 in a bandwidth from € 3.2 million to € 3.4 million. This already includes anticipated valuation losses due to "over-rents". It does not include any changes in the market value in excess of this amount for real estate and interest rate derivatives.
A key factor for the company's future ability to pay dividends is the ongoing broadening of its equity base, which provides the foundations for increasing the portfolio of real estate and participations. In addition to cost-conscious management, there may be economies of scale for the unavoidable fixed costs, which have a positive impact on the amount of the dividends.
The significant reduction in interest rates on the capital markets and the increased yields for real estate, there are now attractive opportunities to buy properties. Given a solid equity basis, it would also be possible to obtain borrowing to finance these purchases.
However, it is still very difficult to obtain equity on the capital markets, as investors are very insecure regarding the duration and extent of the current economic crisis.
We are convinced that, over the medium term, the real estate sector will be regarded as a safe haven for long-term investments. Many national and international insurance companies and pension funds are already increasing their investments in real estate. Even if the current focus tends to be on deflation risks, the future risks of inflation are expected to have an even more serious impact, which is clearly a vote in favor of investments in real estate or shares in real estate companies.
We, Fair Value REIT-AG, aim to benefit from these developments, and grasp opportunities for growth by using our own shares as currency. We already used this strategy in 2007 for certain fund participations. However this is also conceivable for the contribution of real estate or in connection with mergers.
On the whole, we believe that once the capital markets have calmed down, there are good opportunities for our share price to sustainably reach our net asset value (NAV) of € 8.16 per share.
We would like to thank you for the trust you have placed in our company to date and would be happy to welcome you in person to our General Meeting on May 29, 2009 in Munich.
Munich, March 27, 2009
The Managing Board
Frank Schaich Manfred Heiler
Dear shareholders,
The global crisis in the financial system and the resulting crisis in the real economy have also had a major and sustained impact on the real estate markets. Carried by the general collapse in share prices, most real estate shares, including Fair Value REIT-AG, are listed far below their NAV, which expresses the fair markt value of their real estate assets.
Given this difficult environment, the company and its management and supervisory bodies had to pay particular attention to retaining and securing stability, liquidity and equity, in order to secure solid foundations for the company's further growth, to uphold the REIT criteria and to create an excellent starting point for potential activities when the economic environment improves.
The negative consolidated earnings disclosed primarily results from the adjusted market valuation of the portfolio properties and the valuation of the financial instruments used to hedge interest rates. It hides Fair Value REIT-AG's solid operating foundations and earnings strength, which is documented, for example, by the sale of the office property in Duesseldorf at a respectable profit.
The Supervisory Board's activities focused on the supervision and support of the company's economic development and strategic orientation, in particular taking the global financial and economic crisis into account.
The Supervisory Board was included in all decisions of fundamental importance. In observance of Section 90 (2) of the Aktiengesetz (AktG – German Public Limited Companies Act), the Managing Board informed the Supervisory Board in good time of the company's general development, the status of the company and the Group. All transactions subject to the Supervisory Board's approval as a result of statutory provisions or the articles of incorporation were dealt with in the Supervisory Board meetings.
Seven Supervisory Board meetings were held in fiscal year 2008, one of these was a telephone conference. The Supervisory Board meetings regularly discussed the Group's revenue and earnings growth, as well as its financial position and assets, paying particular attention to its risks. The key indicators for Fair Value's status as a REIT were regularly considered.
The Supervisory Board discussed in detail and agreed the company's budgets and forecasts, and also agreed to the marketing and subsequent sale of the office property Airport Office II in Duesseldorf.
Upholding the principles of corporate governance is of key importance for the Supervisory and Managing Boards. As a result, the Corporate Governance Report has its own chapter in the annual report.
The recommendation by the German Corporate Governance Code Government Commission, which was updated in June 2008, was discussed in detail with the Managing Board. The current declaration of conformity within the meaning of Section 161 of the Aktiengesetz (AktG – German Public Limited Companies Act) was issued at the Supervisory Board meeting on February 26, 2009 together with the Managing Board, and has been published on the company's website.
The consolidated financial statements (IFRS) and the single entity financial statements (HGB) of Fair Value REIT-AG were both audited by the auditor appointed by the General Meeting on June 9, 2008, BDO Deutsche Warentreuhand Aktiengesellschaft, Duesseldorf Branch. The auditor issued both the single-entity financial statements and the consolidated financial statements including the respective management reports with an unqualified auditor's opinion.
To our shareholders Group management Consolidated Notes Real Estate portfolio report financial statements in detail
In its own review, the Supervisory Board dealt with the presented financial statements for fiscal year 2008 including the respective management reports and the auditors reports, which were presented in good time, in its meeting dated March 27, 2009. The auditors who audited the annual financial statements reported on the results of their audit and were available for questions from the Supervisory Board.
There were no reasons for any objections, with the result that the Supervisory Board adopted the singleentity financial statements 2008 of Fair Value REIT-AG and approved the 2008 consolidated financial statements.
The auditor confirmed the Managing Board's declarations on the upholding of the statutory requirements for the share spread, the minimum distribution and the upholding of the asset and income ratios as well as the exclusion of dealings in real estate and the compliance of minimum equity.

Fair Value REIT-AG's shareholder structure
During the past fiscal year 2008, the international stock markets took the full brunt of the global financial and economic crisis. The situation on the capital markets clouded increasingly in 2007, however the mood on the stock markets deteriorated substantially during the course of 2008.
This trend also impacted real estate shares, including shares of Fair Value REIT-AG. On the last day of trading in 2007, our shares closed at € 7.66 (XETRA). As a result of the growing insecurity among market players, the share initially came under pressure in the first quarter of 2008, as was also the case for the entire capital market. The share price increased again in the second quarter of 2008 once the 2007 annual report had been published, climbing to € 7.50 per share.
As a result of the deteriorating situation on the capital markets, the share price was not able to continue this growth. In particular during the course of the third quarter and at the start of the fourth quarter of 2008, the stock market prices slumped yet again when the international financial crisis really broke out. This was due to the insolvency of the US investment bank Lehman brothers. Concerns about systematic risks within the financial sector and fears about the banking systems fundamental ability to function caused volatility to increase dramatically. The nervous mood on the markets was also enhanced by the fact that an increased economic downturn at a global level was expected. The global stock market indices lost value dramatically as a result.
This also affected Fair Value's share price, causing the shares to fall below € 4.00. When the Act on the stabilization of the financial markets was passed, the share price recovered again at above € 4.00, however it fell again to € 3.10 as a result of the global recession which is now emerging. This was the lowest share price in the period under review.
The share price stabilized after Fair Value published its preliminary results for the first nine months of the fiscal year on November 7, 2008, and then continued to climb again. On the last day of trading in 2008 the shares were listed at € 4.00.
During 2008, 842,641 shares of Fair Value REIT-AG were traded on all of Germany's stock markets with a volume of € 4,558 thousand. The average daily turnover was 3,317 shares or € 17.9 thousand.
Open, transparent communication is particularly important – especially in periods with an insecure economic environment and a high degree of nervousness on the stock markets. That is why Fair Value REIT-AG actively aims to exchange information with the interested public. The Managing Board believes that it is crucial to maintain in-depth dialogue with analysts, investors and the specialist press. Detailed reporting and the publication of relevant company disclosures allow the company to provide a broad audience with end-to-end, up-to-the-minute information on current business developments. In addition, Fair Value regularly participates in national and international investors' conferences, and is thus in constant contact with the financial community.
In addition, analyst coverage was also increased last year. This will make it even easier to obtain a differentiated view of the company and its growth potential. Communications also focused on an increased international presence, in order to further increase the spread of Fair Value's international
investors. In this regard, the company participated in various events, e.g., in North America, Great Britain or Switzerland. In addition, the share's international visibility was reinforced with roadshow dates, for example at the NAREIT Annual Convention in San Diego and in San Fransico (USA) in November.
These activities shall be maintained in future. Finally, the Managing Board constantly seeks dialog with the financial media in order to provide the general public, and also of course the company's many private investors, with the most comprehensive possible picture of Fair Value's growth. Comprehenisve information on the shares can also be found at www.fvreit.de in the Investor Relations section.

Fair Value REIT-AG is a high-quality real estate company and acquires and manages commercial properties in Germany. To date Fair Value is the only listed real estate company in Germany pursuing a unique business model: In addition to directly acquiring real estate, the company acquires participations in closed-end real estate funds. Fair Value REIT-AG's real estate portfolio thus comprises two segments: Direct Investments and Participations.
In the Participations segment, at present, the company holds majority and significant minority interests. As a result, Fair Value REIT-AG can actively influence the management of closed-end real estate funds and increase value. At present, the company holds a majority interest in five closed-end real estate funds (subsidiaries), and holds a participation of between 20 and 50 percent in a further eight real estate funds (associated companies).
At present, the portfolio comprises eighty directly and indirectly held properties with a total rental area of 457,150 m², which are either fully or partially owned. Of this total, 53 properties with a total rental area of 155,750 m² and a market value of € 130.7 million either held directly or are held by subsidiaries. A further 27 properties with a total rental area of 301,400 m² and a market value of € 415.6 million are held by associated companies.
In total, the properties, which are located throughout Germany, have a market value of € 546.3 million. Of this total, € 244.5 million was due to Fair Value according to the participations. Based on the potential rent of € 20.8 million, the proportionate total portfolio thus recorded an annual rental return of 8.5 %. The income-based rental level of 95 % and the average remaining term of the rental agreements of 6.9 years mean that rental income has been secured over the long term. Fair Value's portfolio of real estate is thus characterized by strong income, sustainability and diversified risks.

Potential rental return in % based on proportionate market values
In addition to being spread over a large number of locations, Fair Value's portfolio also has a high level of diversification in terms of the property types of uses. Around 45 % of the potential rent is from the retail sector, a further 40 % is generated by leasing office space. 9 % stems from the logistics sector, with other space accounting for 6 % of the potential rent. As a result, from a sectoral perspective Fair Value REIT-AG is comparatively independent of developments in individual industries.
Portfolio breakdown by sectors*
* according to potential rent
A more detailed look at Fair Value's real estate portfolio shows: The company records excellent figures in all segments in terms of both the return on the potential rent as well as occupancy levels. In addition, the long, income-weighted remaining periods of the rental agreements mean that rental income is highly predictable. The diversified tenant structure and the contractual partners' excellent credit ratings also provide additional security for the income. This means that Fair Value combines attractive potential income with very secure rental income.

(Market value of € 244,5 million of Fair Value's proportionate portfolio by federal state as of December 31, 2008)
From a geographic perspective, Fair Value's portfolio is spread across Germany. The company is present in almost all of Germany's states. The properties' market values are spread comparatively evenly throughout Germany. This significantly reduces dependence on regional developments, both in terms of rental activities as well as growth in the portfolio's value.
The breakdown of the proportionate market values in the portfolio by city size shows the company's investment strategy. Fair Value focuses on mediumsized cities and regional centers. In terms of contractual rent, the bulk of income is recorded in cities with less than 250,000 inhabitants. This focus on socalled "secondary locations" allows the company to generate attractive returns with a simultaneous low risk profile. This is due to the fact that the volatility of the real estate markets is lower in medium-sized locations as the economy is has a strong focus on small and medium-sized enterprises. In contrast, large cities are more typically affected by the overall course of the economy, which is why they are subject to stronger fluctuations in changes in the rent and growth in the value of the properties.
* After taking Fair Values share into consideration
Compared to the previous year, the valuation of the properties as of December 31, 2008, taking into account Fair Value REIT-AG's participations, resulted in a reduction of € 29.3 million in the market values of the properties in the portfolio to a current total of € 244.5 million. After adjustment for a compensation payment for the cancellation of a general rental agreement at a subsidiary, the average reduction in value for the overall portfolio totaled 6.4 %. This adjustment was due to an increase in the discount and capitalization interest rates in calculations for the values of the properties. This is thus primarily a reaction to the current situation on the capital markets, and less to the course of Fair Value's operating business.
The market values of the portfolio in secondary locations are comparatively stable. Adjustments to the identified market values were lower than average, in particular in small and medium-sized towns with up to 250,000 inhabitants, whereas cities with more than 250,000 inhabitants tended to record higher losses in value. This is due to the fact that the companies in these locations are often more strongly geared to the regional economy. This results in stable growth in the real estate markets in these regions compared to large cities.
Fair Value REIT-AG's business model is unique to date in Germany: The combination of investing directly in real estate and also acquiring participations in closed-end real estate funds.
As a rule, these participations can be acquired as non-cash acquisitions, i.e., by swapping participations for shares of Fair Value (so-called "UPREIT"), or participations can be bought against payment of a purchase price. The company made this offer to investors in specific funds in the summer of 2007, and more than 2,000 investors availed of this opportunity. The process of swapping fund units for shares meant that Fair Value REIT-AG had initial access to the enormous market segment of closedend real estate funds. This segment represents an original investment volume of around € 140 billion in Germany, just with commercial properties.
As of December 31, 2008, Fair Value's Participations segment participated in a portfolio of 48 properties with a total rental space of 414,161 m². These commercial properties had a market value of around € 499 million, and Fair Value's share of this amount totaled around € 197.3 million after taking the respective participation levels into account. Of this total, a proportionate amount of € 48.6 million are due to the five majority participations (subsidiaries), whereas a further € 148.7 million are due to minority participations (associated companies).
The potential rent is currently an annual € 8 million for the subsidiaries, with an occupancy level of 87.5 % The average remaining term of the rental agreements is an income-weighted 4.6 years. The potential rent for the associated companies' properties totals € 36.1 million. € 12.9 million of this total is due to Fair Value REIT-AG. On December 31, 2008 the proportionate rental level due to Fair Value was 97.2 % of the potential rent, with an average remaining term for the rental agreements of 6.1 years.

In the Direct Investments segment, since December 2007 the company has owned a portfolio of 32 commercial properties, mostly used as bank branches by Sparkasse Südholstein. As a result of their direct proximity to the Hamburg region, these properties have a favorable location in one of Germany's high-growth regions. The total market value of the "Sparkasse portfolio" amounted to around € 47.3 million as of December 31, 2008, based on individual surveys. The properties record an annual potential rent of around € 3.3 million, and thus generate a return of around 6.9 % based on the market value. The main tenant's good credit rating, the high rental level of 97.1 % and the above-average remaining term of the rental agreements of 13.4 years mean that the portfolio also offers highly forecastable future rental income.
There were changes in the composition of the real estate portfolio in both the Participations segment and also in the Direct Investments segment during fiscal year 2008.
As part of the expansion of its portfolio of directly held properties, Fair Value REIT-AG acquired the office building "Airport Office II"; located in direct proximity to Duesseldorf Airport in 2007. This property was still under construction when it was acquired. The company assumed the risk of letting the property itself as a result of its prime location and the expected demand for the rental space. Just three months after scheduled completion, Fair Value was able to achieve an operational success when the property was fully let in September 2008. The contractual rent exceeded the original expectations by 9 %.
In particular given the current market environment the company wanted to verify this success by realizing profits. Fair Value sold the property to an institutional investor for a purchase price of € 15.3 million, thus recording profits recognized in income of € 1 million. The attractive price at which the property was sold allowed Fair Value to further increase its equity ratio, increase liquidity and thus create additional financial latitude. The total return of around 20 % on the capital employed means that, despite the more difficult conditions on the market, the company was able to prove its ability to generate added value with its active asset and portfolio management.
It further optimized its portfolio structure in the Participations segment. The subsidiary BBV 06 sold a plot of land that was no longer required at a profit. In addition, an associated company (IC 15) sold an office property on the banks of the river Rhine in Duesseldorf at a price of € 6.7 million by way of a notarized purchase agreement dated August 27, 2008. This thus exceeded the market value of around € 6.4 million identified on June 30, 2008 by around 4 %.

To our shareholders Group management Consolidated Notes Real Estate portfolio
Based on its dual pillar strategy, Fair Value REIT-AG aims to unite a broad diversification and simultaneous high earnings strength. As a result, over the medium term Fair Value will drive the expansion of its business activities both via additional participating interests in specific closedend real estate funds as well as via targeted direct investments.
Its investment activities will continue to focus on medium-sized cities and regions, as these allow attractive returns to be generated, and are comparatively less volatile. In addition, Fair Value will also make selective investments in urban conurbations – as was the case with Airport Office II in Duesseldorf, which has now been sold. In order to further optimize its portfolio structure, in future the company will increase the proportion of logistics and office properties in its portfolio.
Despite the fact that the economy is currently murky, the German market for commercial properties offers opportunities – as the real estate market in Germany is comparatively stable compared to other countries. Fair Value REIT-AG believes that this situation offers good conditions for further growth. As a result, it plans to consistently and resolutely continue the course it has taken.
Group management report
Fair Value REIT-AG (hereinafter also referred to as Fair Value or the Fair Value Group) focuses on acquiring and managing commercial properties in Germany. Its investment activities currently focus on office, retail and logistics premises in urban regional centers. Fair Value REIT-AG acts as the parent company for the Fair Value group. At present, the Group participates in 13 closed-end real estate funds. These include five majority participations and eight minority participations. In the case of minority interests, the shareholding totals 20 % to 50 %.
Fair Value's USP is that – in addition to investing directly in real estate – it also acquires interests in closed-end real estate funds. Participations can be acquired as non-cash acquisitions, i.e., by swapping interests for shares of Fair Value, or interests can be bought against payment of a purchase price.
This method of acquiring real estate is unique to date in Germany, and together with the traditional, direct acquisition of real estate, the company's business model has two pillars: the segments "Participations" and "Direct Investments".
In its "Participations" segment, as of December 31, 2008, Fair Value owned interests in 13 closed-end real estate funds with a highly diversified portfolio of 48 properties. The rental area of this portfolio totals 414,161 m² and had a market value of around € 499 million (Fair Value's share in this portfolio totaled around € 197.2 million).
In the "Direct Investments" segment, since December 2007 the company has owned a portfolio of 32 commercial properties, mostly used as bank branches by Sparkasse Südholstein. The properties, located in Schleswig-Holstein, have a total rental space of
42,989 m². These properties had a total market value of around € 47.3 million as of December 31, 2008, based on individual surveys.
As of December 31, 2008, the total portfolio had a proportionate market value for Fair Value of around € 244.5 million, and was around 95 % let (income based) based on the potential rent of € 20.8 million. This is spread over properties used for offices, retail, logistics and other uses.
Fair Value REIT-AG is independently managed by its Managing Board, which has many years' experience in acquiring and managing commercial properties and participations in closed-end real estate funds. The five employees (including the Managing Board) focus on the strategic management of the company and its participations as well as risk management.
The Managing Board cooperates closely with the Supervisory Board, which is included in all major decisions. The Supervisory Board comprises three members.
Operating support for the company for accounting, property management and asset management has been outsourced to IC Immobilien Group companies based in Unterschleißheim near Munich. This group has around 200 employees and has an investment volume of around € 5.3 billion under management for retail and institutional investors.
During the past fiscal year, the economic environment was characterized by the international financial crisis heightening. Economic growth in the first half of 2008 was still very strong with, a priceadjusted 3.4 % increase, however Germany was particularly affected by the substantial economic
cooldown in the second half of the year as one of the leading export countries. The downward slide in the German economy accelerated in the fourth quarter of 2008 in particular. Companies still had well-filled order books in the first few months of the year. However there were strong downturns in order intake at the end of the year. This resulted in real economic growth of 1.3 % for the year as a whole (previous year: 2.5 %). Experts are forecasting a strong downturn in gross domestic product for the current fiscal year, however it does not currently seem possible to make a reliable forecast given the current turbulences.
Inflation in Germany in 2008 was mostly characterized by the economic developments and the strong fluctuations in the price of energy. After strong increases in the middle of the year, when inflation for consumer prices totaled 3.3 % - its highest level in the last 15 years – the second half of 2008 saw a substantial reduction in the consumer price index. This trend is initially expected to continue in 2009. The "basis effect" from the high energy prices last year will make its full impact in the middle of the year. In addition, the current economic slump will dampen price growth. Leading economic research institutions are thus forecasting a moderate inflation rate of around 1 % on average over the year. However, over the medium term market watchers believe that inflation will tend to increase again as a result of the expansive monetary and fiscal policy by governments and central banks around the world.
In 2008 the German labor market was still able to benefit from the excellent economy, which caused employment figures to rise and unemployment rates to fall substantially. However, the number of unemployed increased in December 2008 due to seasonal factors, thus already reflecting the cloudier economy. As a result, it was not possible to continue the previous months' fundamental trend, which was weaker, but still positive. At the end of 2008, the unemployment rate was 7.4 %, on average over 2008 it totaled 7.8 % (previous year: 9.0 %). A strong increase in unemployment is expected for 2009 as a result of the economic downturn.

The German markets for office space rentals were still robust in 2008. According to information from Jones Lang LaSalle, during the past year, a total of around 2.9 million m² of office space was let or sold to owner-occupiers in the six major office centers of Berlin, Duesseldorf, Frankfurt/Main, Hamburg, Munich and Stuttgart. Even though the fourth quarter, which is generally strong, only accounted for 21% of total revenues last year, the total result was higher than the multi-year average.
A downward tendency for rental revenues is expected in 2009. Based on current economic forecasts, a double-digit percentage downturn certainly seems probable.
The vacancy rate fell further in 2008 in all locations, totaling around 7 million square meters at the end of the year (or 8.9% of total space), down by around 0.4 percentage points compared to the start of the year. But by the end of the third quarter, this figure thus increased by ten basis points, which is due in particular to the large number of new properties
completed in the last quarter. New construction was up almost 50% compared to the previous year's level with around 890,000 m² of new office space completed. Based on the current projects under construction, a further increase in properties completed is expected during the current fiscal year.
However, it is not expected that the excess of space offered will be at a similar level to that at the start of this decade, which is now coming to a close. The banks' reserved behavior with regard to project financing will have a dampening effect, as will the reduction in demand for rental space. That is why projects will also be postponed, as could already be seen at the end of 2008.
The most recent upwards trend in rental prices peaked at the end of 2008. As a result of the falling demand and the increasing new properties completed, a 5 - 10% reduction in top rents is expected in 2009. However, it must be assumed that the market average will be less affected than will be the case for the rents that can be achieved in 1a locations. In addition, the German rental market only recorded moderate price increases in the past few years compared to other European countries, with the results that experts in Germany are not expecting any strong downturns in rental prices.
The retail space on offer increased still further in 2008, and thus now totals around 1.5 m² per capita in Germany (previous year 1.4 m²). This is the third highest amount in Europe, following The Netherlands and Austria.
Rents for specialist stores are between € 5 and 15 per square meter depending on their orientation and position. DIY stores account for the lower end of the scale, with rents per square meter of between
€ 6.00 and 7.50. Top rents for supermarkets and hypermarkets stores are between € 9.00 and 11.00 per square meter.
During the course of 2008 the segment for logistics space still enjoyed very positive growth. Rentals totaled approx. 1.4 million m² in the Berlin, Duesseldorf, Hamburg, Frankfurt/Main, Munich and Wiesbaden/Mainz regions, allowing results to be recorded that were up 10 % on the previous year and up 18 % on the five-year average. However, the last quarter of the year was also weak in this segment compared to Q4 2007.
At the start of 2009, the pace of the economic downturn in the German logistics center quickened. This was due to the downturn in demand for thirdparty services in industry and retail which occurred over the short term.
The volume of transactions registered throughout Germany for commercial properties totaled around € 19.7 billion in 2008, down by around 65 % compared to the peak figure in 2007. In spite of this, the volume was still higher than the levels recorded in 2004 and 2005. However, the downturn on the rental markets as a result of the economic downturn in the last few months of 2008 resulted in increased reservedness on the part of investors. In addition, borrowing-driven investors are significantly less active than was the case in previous years as a result of the current high bank margins in a historical comparison, and thus the more difficult re-financing conditions.
Top yields for retail properties in 1a locations remained practically constant, however, returns in the logistics sector increased by around 25 basis
points. In the office sector the large office centers enjoyed increases of between 20 and 60 basis points for top yields, and the growth for specialist stores was around 50 basis points. The growth in returns was stronger for properties outside this top segment, and could exceed the 100 basis points mark in some cases.

Over the coming years, Fair Value REIT-AG will successively increase its equity base and greatly expand its portfolio of properties via investments and, as the case may be, company mergers, thus constantly increasing the value and earnings power of the invested assets, and also achieving high risk diversification. However, this requires an improved environment on the capital markets for listed real estate companies, as the company requires cash or non-cash capital increases in future in order to achieve its growth targets.
Growth from direct investments and additional participations in closed-end real-estate funds In future, Fair Value REIT-AG will strengthen its portfolio of directly-held properties in line with the opportunities provided by the German REIT Act, and at the same time it will increase its portfolio of participations in closed-end real estate funds.
Fair Value REIT-AG was the first and is to date the only listed German public limited real estate company to offer investors in certain closed-end real-estate funds the opportunity to sell their
interests in the funds to Fair Value REIT-AG as part of a structured offer, or to swap these for shares of Fair Value REIT-AG. As a result, investors in these closed end real estate funds were able to increase their risk diversification and participate in a much more diversified real estate portfolio. In addition, shares are much more fungible than fund units, which means that investors' financial flexibility increases in the event of a swap.
Closed-end real estate funds in Germany now account for an investment volume substantially in excess of € 140 billion. The equity is primarily from retail investors, some of whom would like to liquidize their investments for various reasons during the properties' holding periods.
REIT status offers purchasing advantages Thanks to its status as a REIT, Fair Value REIT-AG currently generally has a strong competitive position on the market for commercial real estate thanks to its so-called exit-tax privilege. The profits from the sale of real estate to a G-REIT are thus 50% tax free for companies under certain conditions. As a result of the equity ratio prescribed for German REIT-AGs of 45% of immoveable assets, given corresponding evidence of equity, the procurement of borrowing is also easy to show, even in this difficult market.
Future investment focus – offices and logistics In future, Fair Value REIT-AG will focus its investments more strongly on office and logistics properties. Individual investments shall have a future investment volume of at least € 5 million and at most € 50 million per property. The strategy of focusing on medium-sized cities and regional centers will be continued.
In total, the medium-term aim is to use specific investments and disinvestments to generate a portfolio structure with potential rent comprising around 50 % office, 25 % logistics properties and 25 % retail properties.
Fundamentals of finance and capital management The Fair Value Group's finance and capital management is geared to the aim of maintaining quality, ensuring that debts can be serviced, and generating most attractive returns possible for Fair Value REIT-AG's shareholders.
If it is possible to have a direct influence, finance and capital are managed centrally. As the case arises it is decided, if derivative financing, e.g., interest rate hedges are used. In the case of associated companies, finance and capital are coordinated with the respective management teams or as part of the contractually regulated opportunities for codetermination.
The Fair Value Group's real estate portfolio is either directly owned by the parent company or is held by subsidiaries (participation of more than 50 %). In addition, the total portfolio includes properties held by associated companies (participation of less than 50 %). This portfolio structure impacts the accounting treatment in the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated income statement. The full consolidation of the subsidiaries results in the interests in net assets due to minority shareholders (IFRS) which are carried under the Fair Value Group's liabilities.
The participations in associated companies are carried at equity. Therefore only the proportionate net assets due to Fair Value REIT-AG are carried on the assets side of the balance sheet. The consolidated income statement includes the proportionate current results from the associated companies in the result from participations.
The following table provides information on the real estate attributable to the group and the associated companies. The right-hand side shows the rents and market values based on the respective participation levels of Fair Value REIT-AG on December 31, 2008.
The proportionate share of Fair Value's portfolio was 94.9 % let, being at almost the same level compared to the previous year. Through follow-on rentals and extensions of rental agreements the weighted remaining term of the leases also remained stable at 6.9 years compared to previous year's level.

A further 45 % are hedged using derivative interest rate hedges with fixed interest rates. € 11.9 million run through to July 2, 2012, and € 33.7 million of the interest hedges run through to June 29, 2018. The fixed interest period for 36 % of financial liabilities is more than five years. The weighted interest rate for the fixedinterest loans (including the hedged variable-interest loans) is 5.7 % per year.
Regular evidence is to be documented fo 50 % of the financial liabilities that the agreed loan to market value (LTV) ratio and the debt service coverage (DSCR) ratio are being upheld. These were all upheld as of the balance sheet date.
Structure of liabilities in associated companies The financial liabilities from associated companies of € 265 million included in the valuation of interests at equity in the consolidated financial statements are based on the market valuation dated September 30, 2007, the date of first-time consolidation. In the associated companies' separate financial statements the amortized cost totals € 261 million. Of this total € 13.4 million is due within one year. Of the total financial liabilities a purely theoretical amount of € 95 million is due to Fair Value according to the participation rates.
Of the financial liabilities, € 135 million bear variable interest and € 126 million bear fixed income. There are hedges in connection with the variable interest loans with subscription amounts totaling € 126
million. Part of this amount totaling € 37.5 million is treated as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes. The weighted interest rate for the fixed-interest agreements is approximately 6.2% per year from an economic point of view, taking all of the interest rate hedges into account.
Fiscal year 2008 was characterized by the aboveforecast earnings and positive contributions to earnings from the sale of the office property Airport Office II in Duesseldorf and a plot in Cologne (BBV 06). On the other hand, unplanned high non-cash effects from the market valuation of real estate and interest rate derivatives depressed consolidated earnings.
It was possible to extend the financial liabilities due in 2008 as planned. In this connection, the proportion of non-current liabilities increased from 51 % to 83 % of financial liabilities.
Cash and cash equivalents increased significantly in fiscal year 2008 by € 8.7 million to € 14 million. At the same time, financial liabilities fell by € 17.9 million to € 94.3 million. This positive development in cash and cash equivalents and borrowing is mostly due to a compensation payment for the premature cancellation of a long-term general rental agreement at a subsidiary (IC 07) and from income from sales.
The market valuation of the properties directly held and held by associated companies on a property-byproperty basis mirrored the general developments on the market and was characterized by an increase in
discount interest rates by a weighted 0.42 percentage points to 6.78 %. This corresponded to a 6.6 % increase compared to the figure used in the previous year. The capitalization interest was also increased by a weighted 0.28 percentage points to 6.21 % (increase of 4.7 % compared to the previous year's figure). This was coupled with individual propertybased changes and reductions in the present values of so-called "over-rents".
As a result of the increased discount factors, the market valuation of real estate (taking into account the compensation payment detailed above at the subsidiary IC07) led to a year-on-year reduction, recognized in income, in the market value of the investment properties of € 9.7 million (or 6.9 %) to € 130.7 million. The valuation of swap transactions resulted in a proportionate downturn of € 4.0 million in the corresponding item due to the much lower market interest rates. Of this total, € 0.1 million was recognized in income and € 3.9 million was taken directly to equity.
In the case of the associated companies (equityaccounted participations), a property in Duesseldorf (IC 15) was sold at a profit. The market valuation of the remaining 48 existing properties led to a reduction in market values from € 446.1 million to € 415.5 million, down 6.9 %. The valuation of the swaps resulted in a downturn of € 7.8 million in the corresponding item. Of this total a proportionate € 5.5 million was recognized in income and € 2.3 million was taken directly to equity for the respective companies. The carrying amount of the equity accounted participations fell by € 10.5 million yearon-year to € 48.4 million. Of this change, 63 % is due to the result from participations and 24 % is due to disbursements booked as capital repayments. 8 % of this reduction is due to losses from interest rate derivatives (cash flow hedges) taken directly to equity. 5 % affect the rise in the absorption of value.
In total, the consolidated losses totaled around € 13.3 million. At the same time, the group's equity fell year-on-year from € 94.7 million or € 10.06 per share to around € 76.8 million on December 31, 2008. In terms of the shares in circulation, this corresponds to NAV of € 8.16 per share.
The difference between this unsatisfactory result and the consolidated profits originally forecast of 3.5 million to € 3.7 million (prior to scheduled valuation losses as a result of the reduction in the remaining period of the so-called "over-rents") is mostly due to extraordinary factors as can be seen in the following reconciliation table to the adjusted consolidated result.
The extraordinary factors relate to the compensation payment received from the premature cancellation of a general rental agreement, the profits from the sale of properties, the non-cash result from the valuation of real estate, and the non-cash market valuation of interest rate derivatives and redemption profits from the restructuring of financial liabilities. The adjusted and thus comparable consolidated net income of around € 5.2 million is thus € 1.5 million higher than forecast (before "over-rents"). There is no comparison after "over-rents" for reasons of simplification.
The positive difference between the adjusted consolidated results and the original forecast is partially due to a reduction in interest expense not included in the forecast as a result of the reduction in differences between the market valuation of financial liabilities on the date of first-time consolidation. In addition, individual expenses were econimized or postponed as a result of rentals.

In fiscal year 2008 the Fair Value Group recorded revenues (rental income including income from operating and incidental costs) totaling € 13.9 million. Of this total 72% stemmed from the "Participations" segment and 28% stemmed from "Direct Investments". A comparison with the previous year's figures has not been made in this regard, as the company only commenced its operating activities in the fourth quarter of 2007.
Net rental income totaled € 10.8 million. General administrative expenses totaled € 3.8 million. Of this amount, € 0.9 million related to service fees for the compensation payment received. The remaining € 2.9 million related to overheads for Fair Value REIT-AG (66% or € 1.9 million), and € 0.3 million (11%) were due to the market valuation of real estate. The remaining € 0.7 million related to fund-specific costs in the subsidiaries.
The balance of other operating income and expenses of € -0.4 million included non-deductible VAT from the formation and conception phase totaling € 0.5 million, of which 40% was compensated for by a proportionate redemption of the conception fee of € 0.2 million. In addition, it includes write-off regarding the variable part of the purchase price from the sale of the subsidiary BBV08 in the amount of € 0.3 million in the previous year, which could not be realized due to the market conditions.
The sale of investment property (office property Airport Office II in Duesseldorf and the sale of part of a plot in Cologne by the subsidiary BBV06) resulted in profits totaling € 1.3 million. Taking the received compensation payment for the premature cancellation of a general rental agreement at a subsidiary (IC07), the market valuation of property resulted in a valuation loss of € 9.7 million for the group. The result from operating activities thus totaled € -1.8 million.
The earnings from associated companies of € -7.1 million were carried under the result from participations. This was also substantially impacted by the market valuation of real estate already discussed and swap transactions in the companies. The financial result of € -4.5 million includes positive earnings from minority interests (€ 0.4 million) and net interest expense of € 4.9 million.
As a result, the Fair Value Group recorded a consolidated net loss for the year of € 13.3 million. This corresponds to earnings per share in circulation of € -1.41.
The cash flow from operating activities (funds from operations) before extraordinary factors and changes in current assets and equity and liabilities totaled € 3.5 million or € 0.37 per share in circulation. As a result of the compensation payment of € 15.4 million for the premature cancellation of a longterm general rental agreement with the subsidiary IC07, less € 1.9 million for disbursements to minority shareholders in this regard (€ 1 million) and administrative expenses (€ 0.9 million), and taking into account other changes in assets and liabilities, the net cash provided by operating activities totaled € 21.5 million.
The cash flow from investing activities totaled € 3.6 million. This comprises purchase price payments received for a participation in a subsidiary (BBV08) which was already sold in 2007 as well as purchase price payments received from the sale of the "Airport Office II" property in Duesseldorf (minus the correlative investments) and the sale of a plot in Cologne. In addition, the contractual collateral of € 2.3 million in favor of the seller of the Sparkasse portfolio was formed from cash and cash equivalents for the possible loss of the exit tax privilege.
During the period under review, the net cash provided by operating and investing activities was used to repay debts with a total amount of € 16.4 million. On the balance sheet date, the Fair Value Group's cash and cash equivalents thus increased by € 8.7 million year on year to a current total of € 14.0 million.
As of December 31, 2008, there were assets totaling € 198.2 million. Of this total, 92% were non-current. In turn, € 130.7 million of this amount is due to investment properties. The remaining € 48.4 million are carried on the balance sheet as equity-accounted participations in associated companies. In addition, non-current assets include a fixed-term deposit of € 2.3 million which is pledged as security.
Current assets of € 16.7 million comprise cash and cash equivalents of € 14.0 million and a further € 2.7 million of receivables and other assets.
61% of assets were financed with liabilities (€ 121.4 million) and 39% were equity financed (€ 76.8 million). It must be noted that minority interests in subsidiaries (€ 16.5 million) are carried under liabilities according to IFRS. Taking the minority interests into account as equity, as allowed in the German REIT Act, the equity ratio would increase to 47% of total assets.
The group's financial liabilities totaled € 94.3 million or 48% of total assets (€ 198.2 million). Of this figure, 17 % or € 15.9 million were due within one year.
Of the other liabilities totaling € 4.8 million, 94% are due within one year (€ 4.5 million). Of this total, € 3.3 million are due to VAT liabilities. The remaining € 1.2 million mostly relate to commitments to make payments to exiting co-shareholders at subsidiaries, interest deferrals and rent deposits received.
Totaling the market values of the real estate and the participations, the net asset value (NAV) on December 31, 2008, including other balance sheet items, amounted to € 76.8 million compared to € 94.7 million in the previous year. In terms of the 9,406,882 shares in circulation on the balance sheet date, the net asset value per share was thus € 8.16.

Report on key events after the balance sheet date
There were no events of particular significance subsequent to the balance sheet date.
Fair Value REIT-AG's risk management system is part of the management and control of the Fair Value Group in order to allow all of the risks relevant to Fair Value's business operations to be identified, analyzed, evaluated and controlled at an early stage.
The risk management system is integrated in the regular reporting to the Managing and Supervisory Boards in order to ensure that they are able to act and that risks are dealt with efficiently. The company's risk strategy also includes the external service provider, the IC Immobilien Group. The service provider works together with Fair Value's management to identify, report, evaluate and control any potential risks and other risks that occur. Risk control and reporting are performed centrally by Fair Value REIT-AG's management. This ensures that the Managing Board is informed of all key risks and information in good time and that it can put suitable activities in place.
In order to be able to recognize developing risks at the earliest possible stage, Fair Value constantly monitors the overall economic developments and developments typical in the real estate and finance sectors and workflows within the Fair Value Group. In order to structure the risks, these have been defined in a risk overview:
| Risks from operating activities |
Risks from investing activities |
Risks from financing activities |
Other risks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasing | Property selection | Equity | Legal conditions |
| Property management | Due diligence | Liquidity | Tax conditions |
| Valuation | Sales | Liabilities | Overall economy |
| Processes/infrastructure | REIT-AG risks | Industry-specific | |
| Insurance | Risks from REIT status | ||
| Team | |||
| Liability | |||
| Litigation | |||
RISK ANALYSIS The risks identified using the risk overview are analysed. The possible damages are identified and weighted with a probability of occurrence. Scenario analyses are used to identify the potential impact on the Fair Value Group's earnings.
The respective risk-owners decide – together with the Managing Board if necessary – on activities to manage the risks.
Fair Value's risk control monitors successes in controlling risks in order to constantly review how well the risk management system works and to adjust and further develop this if necessary.
There are risks of reductions in rent, loss of rent and vacancies. In addition, it may not be possible to fully implement index-related rent increase, to implement these immediately, or to implement these at all. In extreme cases, rents can also fall as a result of the index.
There are risks that unanticipated costs for repair and maintenance activities may result, or for modifying the property to current demands.
The further development of the real estate held directly and indirectly has a direct impact on Fair Value REIT-AG's enterprise value, both directly and indirectly. The current weak economy means that over the medium term there are increased risks that the value of the real estate portfolio will fall further. This would impact the net assets, the balance sheet structure and the financing conditions (see borrowing).
Internal organization and risk monitoring structures and also management systems have been put in place at Fair Value REIT-AG. In order to safeguard against IT risks, Fair Value REIT-AG has its own network, which is protected from external attacks. Data is backed-up several times each week. In addition, a back-up copy of all the data is deposited in a bank safe each week.
There is the risk that Fair Value is not sufficiently insured in the event of damage.
Fair Value could lose members of its Managing Board, executives or managers, or not be able to acquire such employees to a sufficient extent.
Risks could result for Fair Value REIT-AG as a result of its dependency on service agreements with the IC Immobilien Group.
There is a warranty risks as a result of material and legal defects when renting and selling properties and real estate companies. As a limited partner in real estate funds, Fair Value REIT-AG is liable up to the amount of its contribution. As a shareholder of a unlimited liability company it also participates in possible losses over and above the amount of its contribution.
There is the risk that Fair Value will become involved in litigation with tenants, real estate buyers and sellers or shareholders as well as co-shareholders in real estate funds. One of the subsidiaries (IC01) has a suit in progress to implement rent receivables totaling € 50 thousand. No other litigation is currently pending.
Fair Value's business activities depend on the acquisition and marketing of suitable commercial properties and real estate companies at reasonable prices and conditions.
Misestimates, unforeseen problems or unrecognized risks could result in investments in real estate performing negatively. Investments in interests in real estate funds could perform unfavorably as a result of misestimates or negative developments on the real estate market or the market for interests in real estate funds.
In general, and in particular in view of the current financial and economic crisis, the sale of Fair Value's real estate assets is subject to the risk of falling prices, misestimates in the property's market value and purchasers' warranty claims.
The future procurement of equity and borrowing and thus also the general level of interest rates affects Fair Value REIT-AG's business activities and continued growth.
A further reinforcement of the equity basis is required for Fair Value REIT-AG to achieve its intended growth. This can result from, for example, a combination of cash and non-cash capital increases. Future capitalization activities could be delayed in view of the current difficult environment on the capital market. Non-scheduled depreciation of real estate in the company's participations could lead to disbursements having to be treated as a return of capital and not as income, thus reducing the dividend potential.
Fair Value REIT-AG depends on the ongoing income from its direct investments and inflows from its subsidiaries and associated companies. However, including the freely available liquidity in 2009 these will not be sufficient to fully repay a loan of € 13.5 million which is due short term in addition to additional payment commitments. Fair Value REIT-AG believes that the ongoing negotiations to achieve an extension of this loan with the lender will have a positive outcome.
The Managing Board is certain that these conditions will occur, and as a result the cash and cash equivalents and the cash flow from operating activities are secure for its current requirements, and from the current perspective they are sufficient to fulfill all liabilities when becoming due during the next twelve months.
There is the risk that follow-on financing or credit extensions cannot be agreed in the planned amount, only at unfavorable conditions, or not at all. This also applies to all new financing to be taken out in connection with the acquisition of additional real estate assets or the acquisition of fund units.
In addition, despite the current strong downturn in interest, there is a general risk of interest rate changes, which could impact current lending for follow-on financing or the extension of pending borrowing and also financial liabilities for which follow-on financing is only scheduled in coming years. In addition to the interest rate risk, there is also the risk that re-financing costs (funding costs) for banks and thus bank margins could increase.
There is the risk that income and the properties' market values could fall as a result of the current financial and economic crisis. This could cause a deterioration of the loan to value ratio (LTV), the debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) or the ability to repay
principal. As a result, Fair Value REIT-AG could be confronted with the provision of additional collateral, additional redemption payments or deposits in pledged credit accounts as additional credit collateral.
The strong reduction in interest rates could, on the other hand, for example in connection with the sale of properties, result in high compensation payments to the lender if the loans are redeemed ahead of time. This would have a corresponding impact on liquidity.
A REIT-AG's exemption from corporation and trade tax is conditional upon fulfillment of the conditions of Sections 8 - 15 of the REIT-G.
Violations of these provisions lead, in part, to the immediate loss of tax exemption. A violation could result in fines having to be paid, it could also have no direct consequences. However, in the case of repeat violations, this would result in the loss of tax exemption.
Under certain circumstances, this would lead to subsequent tax payments and substantial outflows of funds. If Fair Value REIT-AG does not succeed in maintaining its status as a G-REIT, this could have a negative impact on its competitive position. In addition, if it loses its REIT status, shareholders could claim compensation from Fair Value REIT-AG.
Underlying legal and tax conditions It is possible that Fair Value is not able to exercise sufficient influence on its associated companies, and for example that it fails to win shareholders' resolutions. Underlying legal and tax conditions could change to Fair Value's disadvantage.
The current weak economy constitutes a short to medium-term risk for growth in rental income, which could have an indirect impact on the valuation of Fair Value REIT-AG's portfolio.
Fair Value is subject to strong competition for commercial real estate. It is possible that the company is not able to assert itself sufficiently in this competition. The crisis on the financial markets has had a major impact on the market for transactions, which means that any property sales could be more difficult.
Despite the current weak economy, the Managing Board does not believe that risks will occur in fiscal year 2009 that could endanger the continued existence of Fair Value REIT-AG.
The general underlying economic conditions in Germany and the situation on the German real estate market are tense. This is already showing its impact in lower demand for space and thus a downturn in market rents. In spite of this however, on the whole the German commercial real estate market is expected to remain at a stable level in an international comparison. In view of the significant increase in equity requirements and risk premiums by banks, the yields for commercial properties have already reached an attractive level again. In addition, when the financial markets calm down, attractive interest rate conditions are to be expected, which will further improve yields on real estate. Fair Value REIT-AG may benefit from this in future investments.
Our highly diverse portfolio of existing properties with an income-related occupancy level of 95% means that the Fair Value Group has stable foundations. At the same time, just 7% of the rental volume is due for extensions or renewal in both 2009 and 2010. Fair Value participates in a portfolio with a total of 80 properties. This is wide spread both geographically and also in terms of sectors. As a result, Fair Value REIT-AG is comparatively independent of developments in individual types of use.
As a result of its reasonable equity ratio and the borrowing that Fair Value has available, which is mostly long-term at fixed interest rates, the group has solid financial stability.
The statutory minimum equity levels can prove advantageous when procuring loans and for loan conditions, if it is possible to simultaneously procure equity (to uphold this minimum equity ratio). As part of the Fair Value Group's further growth, the company plans to continue to invest in closed-end real estate funds via non-cash contributions. However, it also believes that there are opportunities to use its own shares as currency when making direct investments in real estate.
According to the REIT-G, in each case at least 90 % of the net income is to be disbursed to shareholders as a dividend – however this is not based on the consolidated earnings (IFRS) in this report, but Fair Value REIT-AG's net income according to the principles of the Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB – German Commercial Code). If a reinvestment reserve is formed from the profits on sale, as permitted, this reduces the basis for the dividend disbursement.
The annual earnings (HGB) are reduced by the scheduled depreciation of the original acquisition costs of the properties. In principle changes in market values are only reflected in earnings when these are realized, i.e., when the property is sold. However, in case of sustainable decreases in values extraordinary depreciations on the lower market value of properties become possible. Withdrawals from subsidiaries and associated companies only increase the net income in the amount of any corresponding profits under HGB accounting.
Fair Value REIT-AG's annual financial statements for 2008 (HGB) includes net income of € 0.378 million, which was used, in its full amount, to form a reinvestment reserve within the meaning of Section 13 of the REIT-G in connection with the profits from the sale of Airport Office II. As a result, it is not possible to pay a dividend for fiscal year 2008.
It is also likely that it will only be possible to record net income (HGB) for 2009 by recognizing profits from divestitures. In view of the current market environment, the Managing Board is not forecasting any notable sales of real estate, with the result that
To our shareholders Group management Consolidated Notes Real Estate portfolio report financial statements in detail
it will also not be possible to pay a dividend for fiscal year 2009 despite highly efficient, cost-conscious management of the company.
The balance of valuation gains and losses compared to the respective last fair market valuation of the properties has a material impact on the consolidated financial statements (IFRS). After a positive balance for the proportionate portfolio due to Fair Value of 2.4% in 2007, the market values fell by 6.4% in 2008. It is not currently possible to predict the valuation result for 2009 and 2010 in each case on balance. A 1% reduction in the market values of proportionate portfolio due to Fair Value would depress earnings by around € 2.5 million, a corresponding increase in the market value would result in a positive contribution to earnings of approx. € 2.5 million.
Due to the reduction in the present values of the rental agreements at higher than market prices ("over-rents"), in 2009 a proportionate reduction in the market value of the properties for Fair Value to the amount of € 1.5 million is expected given constant market price and without taking other market or property-related changes into account. This figure will increase to € 1.6 million in 2010.
If the course of business should develop as planned, we forecast a result for the Group in a bandwidth of € 2.7 million to € 3.0 million for fiscal year 2009, while for fiscal year 2010 we expect a result in a bandwidth of € 3.2 million to € 3.4 million. Valuation losses due to "over-rents" are already anticipated and thus included in this guidance. Not included are additional changes in the market values of properties and interest derivatives.
The current climate on the capital markets is still characterized by a strong degree of insecurity, which is also reflected by the very high share price discount on the net asset value per share of € 8.16.
Once the mood on the capital market lightens again, the share prices of German real estate companies and thus also Fair Value REIT-AG should move back towards their NAV. Based on this Fair Value REIT-AG plans to drive the company's intended growth. Until then, the Managing Board will focus on strong equity, liquidity and limitation of ongoing costs.
As the management costs for the portfolio are mostly performance related, and the general administrative costs will only increase by a minor amount, even given a certain amount of growth, the net income from this portfolio growth will have a direct impact on the company's ability to pay dividends. Given the company's stable starting point in addition to possible future disbursements the Fair Value share price has the chance to appreciate.

Notes
After being entered as an Aktiengesellschaft on July 12, 2007, Fair Value REIT-AG has been listed on the stock exchange since November 16, 2007. It became a REIT on December 6, 2007.
As a result of its participation in a total of thirteen closed-end real estate funds, the company must prepare consolidated financial statements. They were released for publication by way of a resolution by the Managing Board on March 23, 2009.
These financial statements include, for the entire period, the segment "Direct Investments" with the Sparkasse portfolio and the office building Airport Office II in Duesseldorf from its completion in July 2008 until sale in December 2008.
The consolidated financial statements are submitted to the electronic federal gazette.
Principles of preparation – The consolidated financial statements prepared by Fair Value REIT-AG as the parent company have been prepared according to uniform accounting and valuation methods. The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) from the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) that applied on the balance sheet date and adopted by the European Union were observed in line with Section 315a of the Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB – German Commercial Code). The standards and interpretations for which application was mandatory were used – with one exception. The exception relates to IFRS 8 "Operating segments" which was applied ahead of time.
Investment property and financial derivatives are measured at their fair values, interests in associated companies are equity-accounted. All other measurements are based on cost.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in euros. If not otherwise stated, all amounts are shown in thousands of euros (€ thousand). Rounding differences are possible. Assets and liabilities are broken down into current and non-current items. Items are regarded as being current if they are due within one year.
The consolidated income statement is prepared using the cost of sales (function of expense) method.
Comparable figures – The figures from the fiscal year from January 1 to December 31, 2007 have been used as comparable figures. With regard to the income statement for 2007, it should be noted that the Group only commenced rental activities on October 1, 2007.
First time application of accounting standards – In fiscal year 2008, application of the following standards or interpretations was mandatory for the first time: IFRIC 11 "IFRS 2: Group and Treasury Share Transactions". IFRIC 12 – Service Concession Arrangements. This new regulation has not impacted the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting standards applied ahead of time – IFRS 8 "Business Segments" has been applied with effect from January 1, 2007. According to IFRS 8, business segments must be distinguished based on the internal control of the Group's segments (socalled management approach). Reportable segments are segments whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. In contrast, according to IAS 14 "Segment reporting" two segment levels (business and geographic segments) were to be identified using the risks and rewards approach.

The Group is currently reviewing the impact of the above disclosures on the consolidated financial statements. It does not believe that this will have a major impact on earnings or net assets. It does not intend to use them ahead of time.
consolidation methods – All subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries are companies for which the Group can determine their financial and business policy; in general this is linked to a majority of voting rights. Subsidiaries are included from the day on which the Group obtains control to the end of the control. If a company is acquired, all of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities for the acquired
Group of consolidated companies and
company are measured at their fair values on the date of the acquisition. Interests held by other shareholders are carried according to their interests at the fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities.
Any difference remaining after the Group's acquisition costs are netted with the Group's interest in the newly measured net assets is carried as goodwill if this is a positive figure or recognized in income if this is negative (after the purchase price allocation has been reviewed again).
The consolidated financial statements include Fair Value REIT-AG together with five subsidiaries as part of full consolidation.

The slight changes in individual participation levels are based on other shareholders exiting after termination and on roundings.
Intra-group receivables and liabilities and intra-group income and expenses are netted. Unrealized gains from business transactions between group companies are eliminated in full. The subsidiaries' financial statements included in the consolidated financial statements were adjusted to the Group's accounting principles and methods.
Investment property – Investment property comprises land and buildings that are used to generate rental income or for appreciation. Investment property is initially carried on the date of its acquisition at cost including transaction costs. Acquisition costs also include later costs for expansion or maintenance work which increases value. Subsequent valuations are at fair value. According to IAS 40, this is preferably to be identified based on ascertained market prices or by comparison with sufficiently identical measurement properties. However, the Group's properties differ in terms of age, location, fittings and size. As a result, these are valued based on the discounted cash flow method (DCF method), taking into account the existing rental contracts and current market rents. The resulting fair value is identical to the fair market value as defined by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) in its Red Book:
"The fair market value is the estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion."
The fair market values of all properties are to be identified once a year by an independent experts. Changes in the value are recognized in income in the income statement.
Interests in associated companies – Interests in associated companies are accounted for at equity. Associated companies are companies for which the Group has a significant influence on their business and financial policy, however that it does not control them; as a rule this is linked to an interest and voting rights of between 20 % and 50 %. Interests are carried at cost. If the acquisition costs are lower than the fair value of the proportionate net assets of the associated company, the resulting negative difference is reversed and recognized in income. The interest is thus carried above cost. As a result, the carrying amount of the interests increases or decreases in line with the shareholder's interest in the earnings for the period. Distributions received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the participation. The financial statements for the participating interests measured at equity are adjusted to the Group's accounting principles and methods.
In the consolidated financial statements, the participating interests in eight associated companies as followed were equity-accounted.

Slight increases in the participations on the balance sheet date are based on units being purchased (IC 12, see Note 4) and, in the other cases, from other shareholders exiting after termination.
Impairment – On each balance sheet date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of the equity-accounted investments, the property under construction and, if necessary the intangible assets and property, plant and equipment to ascertain if there are any indicators that these could be impaired. In this case, the recoverable amount of the respective asset is identified in order to determine the scope of any adjustment to its value that may have to be performed. The recoverable amount corresponds to the fair value less selling costs or the value in
use; the higher value applies. The value in use corresponds to the present value of the anticipated cash flows. An interest rate that corresponds to market conditions is used for discounting. If the recoverable amount of an asset is lower than its book value, the value of the asset is adjusted immediately.
If there is doubt surrounding the collection of receivables and other assets, these are carried at the lower amount which can be realized.
If, after impairment has been performed, a higher recoverable amount results at a later date, the asset is written up. The write-up is restricted to the amortized carrying amount which would have resulted if the asset had not been impaired in the past. The write-up is reflected in income.
Minority interests – Minority interests in the real estate partnerships included in the consolidated financial statements have the right to terminate their participating interests. As a result, these shareholders' interests in the subsidiary's capital are regarded as potential compensation claims within the meaning of IAS 32 and are carried as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. When they are first carried, they are measured at their fair value which corresponds to the minority interest' interest in the net asset value of the respective company. Thereafter the liability is carried at amortized cost. Profits increase the liability, losses and distributions reduce the liability. The liability carried thus corresponds to the minority interest's computed interest in the net assets of the respective subsidiary carried on the consolidated balance sheet at book values.
Liabilities to banks – Liabilities to banks are measured at their fair value (= cost). In the case of liabilities newly drawn down, cost is the repayment amount less any directly allocable transaction costs. In the case of subsidiaries' liabilities, which result for the Group as part of initial consolidation, cost corresponds to the market value of these liabilities on the date of initial consolidation. Any difference
between cost and the repayment amount is distributed over the fixed-interest period by adjusting the carrying amount and reflecting this in income with each installment.
Derivative financial instruments – These are interest rate hedges for loans with variable interest rates. They are measured at their fair value. The fair value is the present value of the anticipated future payments, based on publicly available interest rates. If the conditions of IAS 39.88 for hedge accounting apply (designation and documentation as well as regular evidence of the effectiveness of the hedge), changes in the fair value are taken directly to equity under a separate item. If these conditions do not apply, the changes in the fair value are recognized in income.
Provisions – Provisions are formed if there is a legal or constructive obligation from past events, and if this obligation is likely to lead to an outflow of funds for which the amount can be reliably estimated.
Recognition of income and expense – Rental income is recognized for a specific period in line with the term of the rental agreements and taking incentive agreements into account. If a property is sold, the earnings are recognized when the opportunities and risks associated with ownership (ownership, risks and rewards) are transferred to the purchaser. Operating expenses are recorded when the service is used. Interest is accrued and carried as expenses taking the effective interest rate method into account. Borrowing costs for qualified assets are capitalized.
Changes in disclosures, reclassification of prior-year figures – In contrast to the previous year, liabilities from derivative financial instruments are carried under a separate balance sheet item under noncurrent liabilities, as the amounts have increased significantly. The figures from the previous year have been adjusted accordingly.
In the previous year's consolidated cash flow statement, disbursements to minority shareholders of the fully consolidated real estate partnerships were carried under financing. As this relates to remuneration for borrowing, these payments are carried under operating activities from 2008 (as is the case for interest payments). The figures from the previous year have been adjusted accordingly. This thus results in an increase in the net cash used in operating activities and an increase in the net cash provided by financing activities of € 1,371 thousand in each case.
If no ascertained market prices are available, the management or an expert it engages must make estimates and assumptions to identify fair values. All estimates and assumptions are made to the best of their knowledge and belief, in order to ensure a true and fair view of the Group's financial position and results of operations.
Fair values must be identified in particular for:
anticipated rental income and maintenance as well as the applicable discount and capitalization rates. In view of the large number of items affected, individual valuation insecurities are subject to a statistical compensatory effect. The carrying amounts of the investment properties totaled € 130,740 thousand as of December 31, 2008.
c) Impairment of equity-accounted participations – Each balance sheet date, the management must estimate whether there is any reason that the carrying amount could possibly be impaired. In this event the recoverable amount of the affected asset has to be estimated. The recoverable amount corresponds to the fair value less selling costs or the value in use if this is higher. The carrying amounts of the participating interests measured at equity totaled € 48,443 thousand on December 31, 2008.
Although the management believes that all of assumptions made for all of the estimates are realistic and reasonable, it cannot be ruled out the fact that the carrying amounts may have to be changed as a result of changes to the underlying conditions and market developments in future.
Fair Value REIT-AG increased its participation in IC )RQGV &R6FKPLGW%DQN3DVVDJH.*E\DQRPLQDO amount of € 51 thousand. The purchase price for the totaled € 8 thousand and was using cash and cash equivalents.
None of Fair Value REIT-AG's participations were sold in the period under review.

There were a total of 53 properties on December 31, 2008, with 49 properties fully owned, 1 property partially owned and 3 properties held with leasehold rights. As it is no longer expected that two retail properties, carried in the previous year under current assets, will be sold within one year, these were reclassified again to investment properties.
Properties with a carrying amount of € 121,600 thousand (2007: € 140,170 thousand) are encumbered with leasehold rights as collateral for liabilities to banks. There are pre-emptive rights for the user or leaseholder for a hotel in Hanover and a supermarket in Frechen. There are no other material restrictions on the sale of properties or contractual agreements to improve properties. The order commitment for maintenance work commissioned totals € 324 thousand (2007: € 222 thousand).
There are obligations from three long-term leasehold agreements (residual periods of 29 to 71 years) which lead to future annual leasehold payments of € 231 thousand. The agreements include index clauses.
CB Richard Ellis GmbH, Berlin ascertains the properties' fair value using the DCF method on a property-by-property basis. The cash flows for a tenyear period are forecast in detail; sustained rental income is assumed for the period thereafter. The value of this capital is identified based on propertyrelated capitalization rates of between 5.4% and 7.6% and taking into account estimated selling costs incurred after ten years. The surplus income for the ten-year period and the capital value resulting after this period has expired are discounted using discount rates of between 6.2% and 8.2% depending on the specific property as of the valuation date, less the estimated incidental acquisition costs for a potential purchaser.
The resulting write-downs (valuation losses) for the properties were due in particular to the above adjustment to the capitalization and discount rates and the reversal of the advantage from some of the existing rental agreements that were concluded with rent which is above the current market level ("overrents").
Economic ownership of Airport Office II in Duesseldorf was transferred to the Group in January 2008. This property was completed and transferred on July 15, 2008. The property was reclassified from properties under construction to investment properties. The property was sold on December 4, 2008, (risks and rewards transferred on December 30, 2008) for a purchase price of € 15,188 thousand. Profits of € 976 thousand were recorded.
The minimum rental income that can be generated from investment properties in future until the earliest possible date that the rental agreements can be terminated is as follows:
| December 31 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| € thousand | 2008 | 2007 | |||
| within one year | 9,887 | 11,782 | |||
| between one to five years | 30,438 | 38,249 | |||
| after more than five years | 32,228 | 43,718 | |||
| 72,553 | 93,749 |
This does not include rent increases from index adjustments agreed in the rental agreements.
There were contingent rental payments in fiscal year 2008 totaling € 276 thousand (2007: € 78 thousand) from the rental of a hotel property. This relates to the sales-related portion of the rent, which exceeds the minimum rent. There were no major index-related rent adjustments.
Airport Office II, Duesseldorf, was completed in July 2008 and was reclassified to investment properties at cost totaling € 14,041 thousand. This amount includes capitalized interest of € 174 thousand from interim financing with variable interest. The property was sold in December 2008.

The fact that the company's market capitalization on December 31, 2008 was lower than its net asset value gave rise to impairment testing for the carrying amounts of the interests in associated companies. This showed that the value in use of the participating interests was lower than the proportionate equity of the associated companies. This difference in value is due to the fact that non-property related costs are incurred in the funds (fund management, trustee fees, audit and consulting costs, management and liability payments, annual report, etc), which are not taken into account in the properties' valuation, however which have to be covered from income from the properties and which reduce the funds' results.
In the calculations, it is assumed that the holding period for the properties is not longer than ten years (from the balance sheet date) and that the nonproperty related costs will not be incurred for longer than ten years. The discount rates were identified fund-by-fund, based on the interest rates used in the property survey dated December 31, 2008. These totaled between 6.38% and 7.20%.

The purchase price receivable from the sale of the SDUWLFLSDWLRQLQ%%9,PPRELOLHQ)RQGV1U *PE+ Co. KG totaling € 5,005 thousand was paid during the period under review in the amount of € 4,705 thousand. The remaining € 300 thousand were due to the variable component, which depends on the growth in the value of the net fund assets through to December 31, 2008. As the performance assumed at that time has not resulted, the receivable has been reversed and recognized in expenses as of December 31, 2008.
A bank balance of € 2,300 thousand has been pledged to indemnify against claims if the sale of the Sparkasse portfolio does not receive benefits under the German REIT Act within four years of the contract being concluded (October 6, 2007). Interest on the balance sheet date was 3.3% p.a.
Fair Value took over an existing pension commitment by IC Fonds GmbH in favor of Mr. Frank Schaich by way of an agreement dated July 10, 2008. Details are included in Note No. 33. This results in a defined benefit commitment within the meaning of IAS 19 for the company. A re-insurance policy has been concluded for this commitment. This has been pledged to the beneficiary and is thus to be netted with the present value of the obligation (DBO) as plan assets.
The pension commitment and the plan assets have developed as follows:

The bank loans bearing variable interest bear interest based on EURIBOR plus a margin. These are hedged in the amount of € 42,835 thousand (2007: € 0 thousand) using interest rate swaps, in which variable interest rates are swapped for fixed interest rates, with the result that all of the loans have fixed interest rates in economic terms. The interest rates for the non-hedged variable-interest bank loans were 4.6% on average as of December 31, 2008 (2007: 5.7%) p.a. The weighted average interest rate for the fixed-interest bank loans (including the hedged variable-interest loans) totaled 5.7% as of December 31, 2008 (2007: 5.10 – 5.25%) p.a. The loans run through to 2018 at the latest. They are all fully collateralized with mortgages, partially from the transfer of receivables from rental agreements, and in the amount of € 13,453 thousand by way of a pledge of the interests Fair Value REIT-AG holds in IC/BBV real estate funds.
Current liabilities to banks also include the amounts from non-current loans that are due within one year. Non-current liabilities to banks have the following remaining periods:

An interest rate hedge was concluded in connection with a variable-interest loan agreed during the fiscal year with the same bank in the amount of € 33,690 thousand. The transaction runs until June 29, 2018, as does the loan. The Group pays fixed interest of 4.94% of the respective amount at the start of the quarter, and receives a variable interest rate equivalent to the three-month EURIBOR set at the start of the quarter from the bank for the same amount. This totaled € 33,690 thousand as of December 31, 2008. The interest rate swap fulfills the conditions for hedge accounting. The changes in value are taken directly to equity and are booked under the reserve for changes in value.
There are also two other interest rate hedges with a term through to July 2, 2012. The Group pays fixed interest of 5.03% or 4.81% p.a. of the respective amount at the start of the quarter, and receives a variable interest rate equivalent to the three-month EURIBOR set at the start of the quarter from the bank for the same amount. The two underlying amounts together totaled € 11,885 thousand as of December 31, 2008 (2007: € 12,168 thousand). The conditions for hedge accounting had not been met as of September 30, 2008. The change in value is thus booked directly as an expense.
On October 1, 2008 the company created a hedge between two partial amounts of the two interest rate swaps for € 9,145 thousand and two variableinterest loans (retroactive dedication). At the same time, the effectiveness of the hedge was measured and documented. It was thus possible to book directly under equity the change in the value of the interest rate hedge from the date the hedge was created with regard to these two partial amounts under the separate reserve for changes in value.

The liabilities to subsidiaries' exiting minority shareholders are mostly compensation commitments as a result of the participating interest being terminated. In some cases, the Group is authorized to pay the balance from the dispute in three annual installments, with the respective outstanding amount bearing 4% annual interest.
Of the tax liabilities, € 2,933 thousand relates to VAT from the compensation payment received in December 2008 from the former general tenant of the office premises in Teltow.

The sale of the Sparkasse portfolio to Fair Value REIT-AG enjoys tax relief under the conditions of Section 3 No. 70 of the Einkommensteuergesetz (EStG – German Income Tax Act), as only half of the tax rate applies. Under certain conditions, the tax relief can lapse retroactively, for example if Fair Value REIT-AG loses its status as a G-REIT. According to Section 3 No. 70 of the Income Tax Act (EStG), the acquirer of the property is liable for any taxes resulting from retroactive reversal of the tax relief.
As part of the sale of the office property Airport Office II, Duesseldorf, a rent guarantee for a total of € 191 thousand was issued for five rental agreements. This guarantee has a limited term of three months. There is a guarantee with a limited term of five years for one rental agreement. This is limited to € 42 thousand.
In addition, as part of the sale the company has assumed warranty obligations with regard to the ability to oncharge incidental costs. The guarantee lapses five years after the contract is concluded. The cost volume is put at € 10 thousand.
The Group is liable from the revival of liability as a limited partner within the meaning of Section 172 (4) of the HGB in the amount of € 2,646 thousand (2007: € 3,336 thousand).

On December 11, 2008 the Group concluded an agreement with IDLG Immobiliendienstleistungs GmbH, Berlin, the general tenant for the office property in Teltow, to terminate the lease agreement as of September 30, 2008. According to this agreement, IDLG paid compensation for lost rent for the cancelation of the general rental agreement totaling € 15,438 thousand plus 19% VAT. The rental agreement with IDLG originally ran through to June 30, 2015 and included rent which was significantly in excess of the current market rent ("over-rent").
The impairment for the property in Teltow for 2008 totaling € 17,700 thousand is directly connected to the removal of the "over-rent" as a result of the end of the general lease agreement with IDLG. The compensation payment received was thus netted with the valuation losses in the income statement.
Interest expense includes expenses from the change in the fair value of derivative financial instruments (interest rate hedges) totaling € 88 thousand (2007: Income of € 16 thousand). Income from restructuring the financing for the subsidiary BBV06 in the amount of € 1,469 thousand was netted with the interest expenses. Compared to the consolidated amortized costs of the liabilities as a result of the market valuation as of September 30, 2007, a lower amount was repayable during restructuring. The total interest expense (IFRS 7.20 b) which results without these effects totals € 6,620 thousand (2007: € 1,976 thousand).
On average during the year, there were five employees including the Managing Board (2007: 1). As of December 31, 2008, the company had a total of five employees.
Fees were recorded as expenses for the following services by the auditor for the consolidated financial statements BDO Deutsche Warentreuhand AG, Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft:

The audit fees include fees for the consolidated financial statements as well as the single-entity financial statements of Fair Value REIT-AG and the subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements, to the extent that these are not audited by a different auditor. Other services are consulting services.
Basic earnings per share are calculated as follows:

9,406,882 | 2,360,146 | |

Earnings per share are given by dividing the consolidated earnings by the average number of shares in circulation. There are no dilutive effects.
Financial instruments – According to IAS 39, all financial assets and financial liabilities are to be classified in categories. The accounting is determined based on this classification. The following categories are used in the Fair Value Group:
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market and result from the Group directly providing money on a contractual basis or services directly to a debtor.
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are not allocated to any other category.
Liabilities at amortized cost are all financial liabilities that are carried at their fair value less transaction costs when they are first recognized. As a rule they are measured at amortized cost in the following periods; differences between the payment amount
report financial statements in detail
and the repayment amount are distributed over the duration of the fixed-interest period using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss are exclusively derivatives with a negative market value that are not mapped in hedge accounting.
Fair values – The fair value of all financial instruments compared to their carrying amounts is as follows:
| December 31, 2008 | December 31, 2007 | |||||

Cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other receivables and liabilities mostly have short terms, with the result that the carrying amounts equal the fair values. The fair values of the financial liabilities are identified as the present values of the cash flows associated with the liabilities based on the interest yield curve on the balance sheet date.
Net gains or losses from financial instruments – These are as follows:
| Fiscal year | ||
|---|---|---|
| € thousand | 2008 | 2007 |
| Loans and receivables | ||
| Other operating income | 78 | 103 |

| Liabilities recognized at fair value through profit and loss | ||
| Interest rate swaps without hedge accounting (interest expenses) | (88) | 16 |
| Net gains (losses) | 1,116 | 443 |
The net result includes all other income and expense incurred in connection with the financial instruments in the respective valuation category. This relates, in particular to results from subsequent valuation as well as gains/losses from disposal.
Financial risk factors – The Group is subject to the following financial risks as a result of its activities: Market risks (interest rate risks), credit risks and liquidity risks. There are no currency risks. The Group's risk management focuses on the risks resulting from the financial markets and aims to keep their negative impact on its financial position and results of operations as low as possible.
The Group's risk management is performed centrally at a group level based on the guidelines issued by the Managing Board in close cooperation with the IC Immobilien Group's central financial department. This department mostly works for the Group's subsidiaries as a service provider identifying, measuring and hedging financial risks.
The Group has demand and fixed-term deposits. The interest rates for these deposits are based on the respective interest rates on the market.
The Group's interest rate risk primarily results from financial liabilities. In the case of variable-interest liabilities and resetting the conditions for fixedinterest loans after the fixed-interest period has expired, the Group is exposed to the risk of higher interest payments (cash flow risks). In some cases, interest rate hedges (interest rate swaps) have been concluded to hedge these risks.
There are interest rate risks from the valuation of the interest hedges concluded. These either impact equity or income depending on whether or not the conditions hedge accounting have been met.
If the interest rates in the period under review had been one percentage point higher or lower, the consolidated earnings and equity would have been approx. € 205 thousand (2007: € 31 thousand) lower or higher. This effect is based on the changed interest expense for variable-interest loans, less the impact of interest rate hedges and interest on bank balances. As the Group mostly only started its business activities on September 30, 2007 and as the financial liabilities were only taken out on this date and during the fourth quarter, the figure from the previous year is not representative for the full fiscal year.
Fixed-interest liabilities bear the risk of an increase in fair value. This risk neither impacts the balance sheet nor the income statement, as the financial liabilities are not measured at fair value through profit and loss but at amortized cost. However, in the event of a premature repayment of the liability (e.g., if the financed property is sold), this risk becomes more important. The Group does not hedge this risk.
The Group regularly reviews the extent to which it is subject to interest rate risks. Various scenarios are worked through, in which the possibility of refinancing, extending existing financing and interest hedging are taken into account.
Credit risks result from receivables from tenants, deferred purchase price receivables, and investing cash and cash equivalents. The Group has guidelines that rental agreements are only concluded with parties who have a 1a credit rating. Creditworthiness is monitored on an ongoing basis. The tenant structure is broad. During fiscal year 2008, rental defaults were minimal.
As a rule, the deferral of purchase price receivables is collateralized; legal ownership is only transferred upon full payment.
Derivative financial transactions and cash investments are only conducted with banks with impeccable credit ratings.
The maximum credit risk for each category of financial instrument is restricted to the carrying amounts of the financial assets carried on the balance sheet.
The company manages its liquidity responsibly. This also includes maintaining sufficient levels of cash and cash equivalents and being able to avail of lines of credit in a sufficient amount. The company intends to be as flexible as possible when procuring liquidity. The Managing Board constantly monitors liquidity and discusses this regularly with the Supervisory Board.
The following table, used by the Managing Board for liquidity management, shows the maturities of the liabilities which existed on the balance sheet date:

As a rule, the amounts shown are the payments to be made including interest. Liabilities to banks also include fixed interest from interest rate hedges, to the extent that these are subject to hedge accounting. In turn, the anticipated payments for derivative financial instruments only include payments for which there are no hedges for loans.
Capital management – The Group's capital management pursues several objectives: The primary objective is to maintain its financial quality, to ensure that liabilities including repayments can be serviced and to generate profits that allow dividends to be distributed.
There were no changes in the Group's capital management approach during the period under review.
The financial position is judged by the amount of cash and cash equivalents and the equity ratio. The equity ratio shows the ratio of equity to total assets according to the consolidated balance sheet.
| December 31 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| € thousand | 2008 | 2007 | ||
| Equity | 76,787 | 94,663 | ||
| Total assets | 198,243 | 230,359 | ||
| Equity ratio | 38.7 % | 41.1 % |
The Group can only control its capitalization to a very limited extent by retaining profits, as 90% of Fair Value REIT-AG's net income (HGB) has to be distributed. As a result, capital increases from the issue of new shares and the sale of assets to reduce liabilities are used to improve capitalization.
A key element of capital management is also to fulfill the REIT-G equity requirements, as this is one of the factors required for corporation and trade tax to be permanently waived for the company. According to Section 15 of the REIT-G, equity must total at least 45% of immovable assets.

As a result of the change in the German REIT Act included in the Jahressteuergesetz 2009 (2009 Annual Tax Act), minority interests can be included for the first time in 2008 when identifying the equity ratio within the meaning of Section 15 of the German REIT Act.
The company holds real estate directly in Fair Value REIT-AG and indirectly via participations. The Group's organizational and management structure is in line with these two forms of real estate holdings. As a result, there are two operating segments – "Direct Investments" and "Participations". The Group operates exclusively in the geographic region of "Germany". The accounting and valuation methods in the reporting segments are identical to the Group's methods described in Note No. 2.
Segment revenues (rental income including income from operating and incidental costs) and segment results are as follows:

The segments' revenues are broken down as follows according to type of use:
Segment earnings in both segments are identified using central administrative costs, income from equity-accounted investments and the remaining components of the financial result. This figure is reported to the Group's key decision maker with regard to decisions on the allocation of resources to this segment and the measurement of its earnings strength.
Segment results include the following results from the valuation of investment properties and from their sale:

The segments' assets primarily comprise investment properties, receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The unallocated assets comprise the carrying amounts of the equity-accounted companies. Segment liabilities comprise operating liabilities. Financial liabilities, derivative financial instruments and minority interests are carried under non-allocated liabilities.

The subtotal FFO (funds from operations) included in the cash flow statement does not include the compensation payment of € 15,438 thousand from IDLG. As a result, payments that were directly linked to the compensation payment received were added to income from operating activities when calculating the FFO subtotal, and only deducted below the FFO subtotal.

The following service agreements were concluded between Fair Value REIT-AG and its subsidiaries and companies in the IC Immobilien Group:
Asset management and corporate services agreement – The company concluded a service agreement with IC Fonds GmbH on July 25, 2007. In this agreement, IC Fonds GmbH undertakes to perform asset management and accounting for each of the properties and companies owned by Fair Value.
IC Fonds GmbH undertakes to control the contractor's property management services and Fair Value's other service providers, ensure leasing and maintenance and monitor all of the current transactions in Fair Value's real estate operations. This includes, in particular, ensuring the annual budget for rental income, leasing, maintenance and the necessary fittings and conversions including the monthly, quarterly and annual reporting on these activities.
In addition IC Fonds GmbH's tasks also include identifying and reviewing suitable investment properties including commercial and technical due diligence for properties for which a positive decision has been taken based on the annual agreed investment plan.
As part of the accounting services, IC Fonds GmbH is responsible for fulfilling the duty to keep accounting records, bookkeeping and preparing the inventory within the meaning of Sections 238 – 240 of the HGB and performing payments. In addition, simplified quarterly consolidated financial statements (IFRS) must be prepared.
For these services, IC Fonds GmbH will receive annual remuneration from January 1, 2008 of 20 % of the dividend resulting for the respective fiscal year for Fair Value (Section 13 of the REITG). The remuneration is net of statutory VAT.
If IC Fonds GmbH assists in identifying, reviewing and acquiring suitable real estate or participating interests in real estate, it will receive a fee of 0.5% of the market value of the acquired property if the transaction is successful. This fee does not include external service providers, such as specialist engineers, legal consultants, auditors and translators. If participating interests are acquired, fees are calculated according to Fair Value's percentage participating interest. In the event of an acquisition of interests in closed-end real estate funds, this also applies to subsequent acquisitions within a period of 18 months after the original transaction. If affiliated companies of IC Fonds GmbH are involved in the transaction as a broker or consultant, this fee is waived in full unless a different written agreement is met in the particular case in hand. This regulation applies correspondingly to assistance in the sale of real estate or interests in real estate, in particular for the preparation of the requisite documents and supporting the data room.
If IC Fonds GmbH or its affiliated companies already provide comparable services to Fair Value's subsidiaries or associated companies, the remuneration paid at the level of these subsidiaries or associated companies for the same period is offset against the fee detailed above proportionately in line with the Fair Value's percentage interest in the subsidiary or associate.
Fees for third-party services (lawyers, tax advisers, specialist engineers, auditors, communication consultants, etc.) are to be borne directly by Fair Value. These orders are always issued directly by Fair Value, unless this is expressly otherwise regulated in writing in individual cases.
The asset management and corporate services agreement has initially been concluded with a term to June 30, 2011; it extends automatically by three years in each case if it is not terminated by one of the contracting parties with notice of twelve months to the end of the term of the agreement.
Property management agreement (trustee administrator agreement) – The company concluded a service agreement with IC Immobilien Service GmbH, Unterschleißheim, on July 25, 2007. In this agreement, IC Immobilien Service GmbH undertakes to provide direct commercial and technical management for the real estate held directly by Fair Value, i.e., without any subsidiaries involved.
IC Immobilien Service GmbH will receive an annual fee of 3.0 % of the actual annual rent without incidental costs from Fair Value for these management activities unless otherwise agreed in writing for a specific property.
The repair and maintenance work that goes beyond commercial management (for larger, extraordinarily technical activities and construction, such as conversions of, extensions to and fittings for the property/properties and rental areas and other refurbishment work) are remunerated at 5 % for invoices totaling more than € 1,000,000, 10 % from € 100,000 and 15 % for amounts lower than this.
In addition to the refund of costs for advertisements, etc., IC Immobilien Service GmbH receives a fee of 5 % of the rent over the fixed rental period agreed with the tenant for new rentals of commercial space, to the extent that Fair Value does not incur estate agent's costs and if IC Immobilien Service GmbH does not receive any remuneration from tenants. This rate falls to 2% for subsequent rentals. Three months' rent have been agreed as the maximum amount. This remuneration is net of the respective applicable VAT.
A contractual period initially of four years has been agreed. The agreement can be terminated for the first time at the end of the fixed contractual period, with a notice period of twelve months. It extends by periods of two years in each case if it is not terminated with notice of twelve months to the end of the respective term of the contract by one of the contracting parties.
Additional service agreements – There are additional service agreements between the Group and companies in the IC Immobilien Group at a subsidiary level. These include construction support, commercial and technical property management, through to the sale of properties as well as fund management and accounting management.

To the best of our knowledge, we declare that, according to the principles of proper consolidated reporting applied, the consolidated financial statements provide a true and fair view of the Group's net assets, financial position and results of operations, that the Group management interim report presents the Group's business including the results and the Group's position such as to provide a true and fair view and that the major opportunities and risks of the Group's anticipated growth for the remaining fiscal year are described.

Frank Schaich Manfred Heiler
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Fair Value REIT-AG, Munich, comprising the balance sheet, income statement, statement of changes in shareholders' equity, cash flow statement and notes to the financial statements as well as the Group management report for the fiscal year from January 1 to December 31, 2008. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements and the consolidated management report in accordance with IFRSs, as they are to be applied in the EU, and the supplementary provisions of Section 315a (1) of the Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB – German Commercial Code) are the responsibility of the company's legal representatives. Our responsibility is to express an opinion, based on our audit, on the annual consolidated financial statements and the consolidated management report.
We conducted our audit in accordance with Section 317 of the HGB and in compliance with the principles of proper auditing adopted by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit such that misstatements materially affecting the presentation of the net assets, financial position and results of operations in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework and in the Group management report are detected with reasonable assurance. The process of defining the audit procedures takes account of knowledge about the business activities and the economic and legal environment of the company, as well as expectations of possible errors. An audit includes examining, largely on a test basis, the effectiveness of the internal control system and evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the annual consolidated financial statements and the Group management report. An audit also includes assessing the annual financial statements of the companies included in the consolidation, the definition of the scope of consolidation, the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall presentation of the annual consolidated financial statements and the Group management report. We are confident that our audit provides a sufficiently sound basis on which to make an assessment.
Our audit led to no objections.
In our opinion, based on the results of our audit, the consolidated financial statements comply with IFRSs as these are to be applied in the EU and the supplementary provisions of the HGB as stipulated by Section 315a (1) of the HGB, and convey a true and fair view of the Group's financial position and results of operations. The Group management report is consistent with the consolidated financial statements and as a whole provides a suitable view of the Group's position and suitably presents the opportunities and risks of future development.

Fair Value engaged Frankfurt-based CB Richard Ellis GmbH (CBRE) to value its directly and indirectly held properties as of December 31, 2008. CBRE had already valued the properties as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2007 and June 30, 2008.
CBRE is not a company regulated by a supervisory body, however it does employ publicly appointed, sworn experts, members of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and real estate experts certified by HypZert GmbH in its Valuation division. According to the Practical Statement (PS) 3.2 of the RICS Valuation Standards (6th edition) from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), London, CBRE identified the properties' market values as defined below:
"The estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion."
In terms of concept and content, "market value" according to the definition by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and "fair value" according to IFRS and IAS 40 are comparable.
The market value was identified in each case taking into account incidental acquisition costs (land transfer tax, estate agents' fees and notary's and attorneys' fees) and was presented as the net capital value.
The market values of the individual properties was determined using the internationally recognized discounted cash flow method. The discounted cash flow method forms the basis for dynamic calculations and is used to calculate the value of cash flows anticipated in future on various dates and in differing amounts.
In so doing, after identifying all of the factors relevant for the valuation, the future cash flows, some of which are linked to forecasts, are aggregated on an accrual basis. The balance of the receipts and payments recorded is then discounted to a fixed point in time (valuation date) using the discount rate. In contrast to the German Ertragswertverfahren (income-based approach) according to the Wertermittlungsverordnung (WertV – German Value Calculation Directive), the cash flows are explicitly quantified during the observed period and are not shown as annuity payments.
As the impact of future cash flows falls as a result of the discounting, and as the forecasting insecurity increases over the observed period, as a rule in the case of real estate investments the stabilized net investment income is capitalized over a ten-year period (detailed observation period) using a growthimplicit minimum interest rate (capitalization rate) and discounted to the valuation date.
The assumptions used in the valuation model reflect the average assumptions of the dominant investors on the market on the respective valuation date. These valuation parameters reflect the standard market expectations and the extrapolation of the analyzed past figures for the property to be valued or for one or several comparable properties. CBRE
estimated the valuation parameters as best possible using its best judgment, and these can be broken down into two groups.
The property-specific valuation parameters include, for example, rent for initial term and renewals, the probability of existing rental agreements being extended, vacancy periods and vacancy costs, noallocable incidental costs and capital expenditure expected by the owner, fitting and rental costs for initial and renewals as well as property and leasespecific overall interest on the capital tied up in the investment.
The general economic factors include, in particular, changes to market prices and rent during the detailed observation period and the inflation assumed in the calculation model.
According to Guidance Note 5 of the RICS Valuation Standards CBRE points out explicitly, that the current crisis in the global financial system, including the failure or bail out of important banks and financial institutions, has caused considerable uncertainty in commercial real estate markets. Furthermore, CBRE refers to temporarily increased price volatility regarding prices and values under these circumstances, while the market absorbs different changes and settles down at a stable level. The lack of liquidity on capital markets could lead to potentially severe difficulties in achieving a successful sale of the evaluated investment properties in the short run.
