Hans Pars, CEO Wereldhave N.V. comments:

"The rental income rose due to like-for-like rental growth and the acquisitions made in 2010. On the other hand, our active sales programme, higher interest charges and incidental higher general costs have caused a 1.2% decrease of the direct result per share for the first half year of 2011.

During the second quarter the occupancy rate of the portfolio slightly improved, primarily due to new lettings in Belgium and the United States. The further improvement of the occupancy rate of our offices portfolio remains our main priority.

For the full year 2011 we expect that due to sales of properties and higher interest charges, the direct result per share will be in the range between € 4.85 en € 4.95, which enables us to maintain the dividend at the 2010 level."

Profit Compared to the previous year, the profit for the first half of 2011 decreased by
€ 5.4 mln to € 52.6 mln, of which € 0.4 mln was caused by a decrease of the direct
result and € 5.0 mln by a lower indirect result. The profit amounts to € 2.26 per share
(2010: € 2.58 per share).
Direct result The direct result for the first six months of 2011 amounts to € 57.4 mln, a € 0.4 mln
decrease compared to 2010. The slightly lower direct result can be attributed to higher
interest charges, one-off general costs and negative exchange rate differences.
In spite of a lower average occupancy rate and lease renewals at more competitive
conditions in the offices portfolio, the like-for-like rental growth of the entire portfolio
remained 1.1% positive. In combination with the property acquisitions and sales, rental
income rose by € 4.2 mln. Rental income was depressed by the active sales programme
of relatively high yielding, non-core properties.
The interest charges rose by € 5.7 mln, primarily caused by the larger size of the loan
portfolio in connection with property acquisitions and by higher interest rates. The
average nominal interest rate as per June 30, 2011, rose to 3.0% (June 30, 2010:
2.4%). The general costs increased by € 1.1 mln, primarily due to one-off charges in
connection with adjustments to the management organisations in The Netherlands and
Finland. Exchange rate differences had a negative effect on the direct result of € 0.9
mln, as the average exchange rates prevailing for the first half year of 2011 were lower
than in 2010. The taxes on result decreased by € 1.7 mln.
The direct result for the first half year of 2011 amounts to € 2.51 per share, which
represents a € 0.03 or 1.2% decrease compared to the previous year. This includes a
dilution of € 0.02 caused by the increased number of shares in issue in connection with
the optional dividend in respect of the year 2010.
The EPRA occupancy rate as at June 30, 2011 amounts to 90.2%, a 0.8% increase
compared with March 31, 2011. The occupancy rate of the retail portfolio rose by 0.1% to
96% during the second quarter. The occupancy rate of the offices portfolio rose by 1.6%,
particularly in the United Kingdom and in Belgium, but also in the portfolios in Spain and
the United States. The occupancy rate of the portfolio category other decreased by 0.4%,
mainly caused by the sale of the fully let logistic portfolio in The Netherlands. Broken down
per sector, the EPRA occupancy rates as at June 30, 2011 (March 31, 2011) are: retail
96.0% (95.9%), offices 83.7% (82.1%) and other 94.4% (94.8%).
Indirect result The indirect result for the first half year of 2011 totalled € -4.8 mln (2010: € 0.2 mln). The
valuation was slightly positive in France, Belgium and Finland, remained stable in The
Netherlands and the United Kingdom and decreased slightly in Spain and the United
States. The total valuation result of the property portfolio amounted to € -5.9 mln,
or –0.2% of the portfolio. The average cap rate for the valuation of the portfolio remained
nearly stable at 6.4% during the first half year of 2011. The revaluation of financial
instruments (interest derivatives) amounted to € -0.3 mln.
A surplus on disposals of € 2.6 mln (4% above the latest book value) was made with the
sale of five smaller properties in the United Kingdom and six logistic properties in the
Netherlands for a total consideration of € 64,9 mln.
Other movements had an impact of € -1.2 mln on the indirect result.
Equity/
debt
At June 30, 2011 shareholders' equity stood at € 1,642.3 mln (December 31, 2010:
€ 1,728.1 mln). The net asset value per share including current profit as at June 30, 2011,
amounts to € 70.47 (December 31, 2010: € 75.12). The decrease is caused by the
dividend payment for the year 2010 and negative exchange rate differences of € 43.9 mln,
primarily due to a nearly 8% lower exchange rate for the US-dollar as at June 30, 2011
compared to year-end 2010. As a result, the solvency ratio slightly decreased to 58%
(December 31, 2010: 59%), the loan to value remained stable at 40%. In connection with
the payment of an optional dividend in respect of the financial year 2010, the number of
shares in issue rose by 231,083 shares to 21,679,608. The new shares are entitled to
dividend in respect of the full financial year 2011.
Property portfolio Wereldhave did not acquire any properties during the first half of 2011. In the United
Kingdom, five smaller properties were sold and in the Netherlands a logistics portfolio of
six properties was sold. As at June 30, 2011, the value of the investment portfolio
amounted to € 2,730.3 mln and the value of the development portfolio stood at € 170.7

In the United States, the construction of the San Antonio project is also proceeding
according to plan. The first apartments, a hotel and a large part of the commercial

will be completed in the first quarter of 2012. The original investment volume of the first
phase of USD 190 mln has increased by USD 47 mln (€ 33 mln) to USD 237 mln. The
increase is caused by a larger average floor space of the apartments and an improved
design and finishing level. In addition, heads of agreement have been reached on the
lease for a fixed 20-year period of the hotel, which will be operated under an international
luxury brand. The hotel will also become more spacious and luxurious than previously
planned.

Basis of preparation results 2011

Interim statements are not audited by external accountants. The interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". The interim financial report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended on 31 December 2010. The accounting principles applied for this press release are in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as approved and endorsed by the EU Commission.

Presentation USA rental income

As of the fourth quarter of 2010, Wereldhave decided to adjust the presentation of the rental income from the United States in the consolidated financial statements. The comparative figures are adjusted accordingly. The adjustment has been made because U.S. leases do not have a separate service cost component but this is an integrated part of the rent. Therefore, the presentation of the full rental income as gross rental income is a better approach to the economic substance of the contracts. As a result of this change in presentation, in the comparative figures the gross rental income of first half of 2010 increased by € 11 mln, while net service costs have decreased by the same amount. Because the proceeds are not divided in gross rental income and service cost income there is also a change in presentation of the service costs. These have been decreased by € 13 mln, while the operating costs have increased by the same amount. The adjustment in presentation does not have an effect on result or equity.

Expense ratio

The expense ratio for the first half year of 2011, based on the Dutch Financial Supervision Act, amounts to 3.33% (2010: 3.26%). The percentage is calculated as the quotient of property expenses, general costs and the average of shareholders' equity during the accounting period.
