CROMWELL PORTFOLIO REBALANCING CONTINUES

Cromwell Group (ASX code: CMW) today announced that it has completed settlement of its acquisition of the Qantas Headquarters building, (“Qantas HQ”), in Mascot, NSW.

Qantas HQ was acquired for $143 million and enhances the Group’s existing portfolio quality and provides an additional weighting to the promising Sydney office market.

The Group has also entered into an unconditional contract to sell Village Cinema Centre (“Village Hobart”) in Hobart, TAS.

Village Hobart is being sold for $15.9 million, which is equivalent to its 30 June 2010 book valuation and represents a 2% premium to the property’s last independent valuation in December 2009. Settlement is expected to occur on 30 September 2010.

Cromwell Group CEO, Paul Weightman said, “Village Hobart was considered a noncore asset by the Group. Its sale represents the continuing rebalancing of the Group’s portfolio to quality assets such as Qantas HQ which we believe will provide the best medium term risk adjusted return to securityholders”.

Cromwell’s portfolio following the Qantas HQ acquisition and Village Hobart sale has a weighted average lease term of 6 years, an occupancy level of 94.4% and receives 89% of its income from government and blue chip tenants.
