Office market report Luxembourg On Point 3 rd quarter 2015 Large size deals again Take-up in Q3 was again strong at 58,000 sq.m., comprising large size deals by the EIB and Arendt & Medernach. Year-todate take-up reaches 145,000 sq.m., 10% more than a year ago. Vacancy rate increased to 4.2%, vs. 3.8% previously due to several completions and second hand buildings vacated. By yearend, we expect it to fall below 4% again. Prime rents increased further in most districts due to lack of vacancy. In the CBD, prime rents are however unchanged at 45 / sq. m. / month + VAT. The investment market enjoys high liquidity, so volume continue to increase and reaches 825 Mio this year so far, nearly as much as the full year 2014. Prime yields for the best buildings in the CBD tightened by 25 bps to 5.25%.

2 On Point Luxembourg Office market report Q3 2015 Foreword Q3 was an excellent quarter, occupiers breathe as well because there are a few more products on the market, though with higher rents. A very hot market, without overheating as new projects start to become concrete.

3 On Point Luxembourg Office market report Q3 2015 Letting market Large size transaction again Once again, the occupier market was very active with some large size deals. In Q3 we registered 58,000 sq.m. of transactions, 12% more than in Q2 2015 but 8% lower than a year ago. As a reminder, in Q3 last year, take-up was exceptionally high with the PwC transaction (c. 27,000 sq.m.). Cumulative take-up year-todate therefore amounts to 145,000 sq.m., 10% more than a year ago. As we previously announced, the European Investment Bank (EIB) continues to expand in the Kirchberg and took 10,768 sq.m. in the Monnet 3. Another EU institution, the ESM (European Stability Mechanism), increased its footprint in the Kirchberg with 1,023 sq.m.. All together, the contribution of EU institutions to take-up this year to date is 27%, vs. on average 8% the preceding 10 years. On the corporate side, law firm Arendt & Medernach joined its brand new 14,500 sq.m. headquarters in the Kirchberg and in Leudelange, the local developer Tralux prelet 2,222 sq.m. in the L2 project it co-develops with Codic. The high deal flow we witnessed in the Kirchberg brings the contribution of this district to 59% in Q3, vs. 11% for the CBD, 6% for the Station and 5% in Bertrange. Take-up by business sector 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 9M 15 155,800 sq.m. vacant in Luxembourg During the last quarters the risk of overheating of the occupiers market due to restricted vacancy was real, now due to several mid-size completions the market breathe a bit. Over the last three months, in the Kirchberg several buildings were speculatively completed for a total of 6,400 sq.m.: the Vega, the Deneb and Altair buildings are now available for occupation as well as the refurbished Pneu building. In the CBD (Merl), the White Pearl has just been completed and offers 8,454 sq.m. of quality offices. Total speculative completions over the quarter amounted to 19,200 sq.m. During last quarter, some second hand buildings were vacated in the CBD and Station districts for a total of c. 8,500 sq.m. Occupiers have therefore a slightly wider choice. The vacancy rate in Luxembourg as a whole increased a bit to 4.2%, vs. 3.8%. in Q2, and covering 155,800 sq.m. In the CBD, 3.6% is vacant vs. 2.8% previously, in the Station 3.4% (vs. 2.3%), and in the Kirchberg 1.2% vs. 0.9%. In the decentralised as a whole, 6.2% is vacant, vs. 6.4% previously, 3.8% being vacant in La Cloche d or and 9.8% in Bertrange. The vacancy rate in the Periphery is stable as well at 9.9%.

Available in Q4 2015 Landlord : EY In Q4 2015 only one speculative completion is expected: 5,200 sq.m. in the KPC building in Kirchberg, EY s new headquarters. We therefore believe that vacancy will fall back to below 4% again, probably around 3.75%. In 2016, more speculative completions are in the pipeline: up to 66,500 sq.m. will be delivered, including the Lighthouse ONE (Kirchberg: 14,500 sq.m.), the Carrefour I&II (CBD: 13,000 sq.m.) and the Wallis (Station: 4,000 sq.m.. A portion may be prelet, however, and vacancy may then increase again above 4%.

In the CBD, 45 / sq.m. / month (+vat) remains, however several floors in the Royal20 and Royal Grace and commercialised at 50 and over. In the Kirchberg, prime rents are confirmed at 34 / sq.m. / month (+vat), while in the Station district prime rents increased by 3% to 35 / sq.m. / month. The drop of vacancy in La Cloche d Or pushed asking rents higher: the best products now trade at 29.5 / sq.m. / month (+vat) vs. 28 previously. Finally prime rents in the Periphery, and more specifically the Airport, are unchanged at 25 / sq.m. / year. In Leudelange, new projects trade at 23-24 / sq.m. / year, a 24% increase year-on-year.

5 On Point Luxembourg Office market report Q3 2015 Investment market The best quarter of the year Q3 was the best quarter of 2015 so far, confirming the excellent momentum in the flow of property investments in Luxembourg. Over the last 3 months we registered 360 Mio of transactions, 112% more than in Q2 2015 and 94% more than a year ago. Once again it was led by offices ( 298 Mio) with core transactions like the sale to US investors Starwood and Rynda of the Vertigo building in La Cloche d Or and the sale to a French institutional investor of the White Pearl in the CBD for an estimated amount of 55 Mio (JLL estimate). Besides several opportunistic and value-added transactions were closed such as the sale to Giorgetti of the Airport Center for 50 Mio. We also registered c. 57 Mio of land sales and 5 Mio of unit shop sales. The investor base is more international than ever, the Middle East contributed to 33% of the volume, followed by the USA with 23%, local investors with 21%, Belgium with 11%, France with 7% and Germany with 5%. Yields are down to 5.25% Yields for prime buildings providing a secure mid-term cash flow declined by 25 bps to 5.25%. For prime investments with long term leases and small lot sizes, yields can be substantially below this. This implies that capital values continue to increase as rents for the best buildings are also going up. High liquidity Volume year-to-date is already nearly as high as the full year 2014 at 825 Mio. Liquidity is high in most of the districts and the transaction pipeline suggests that volume over the full year 2015 will materially exceed 1 bn.

8 On Point Luxembourg Office market report Q3 2015 Definitions Take-up Take-Up New: Represents take-up of floorspace in new or substantially refurbished buildings of less than five years since completion. Take-Up Modern: Represents take-up of floorspace built or renovated between 5-15 years ago. Take-up Old: Represents take-up of floorspace built more than 15 years ago and not renovated. Rent Prime Office Rent represents the top open-market rent that could be expected for a notional office unit of the highest quality and specification in the best location in a market, as at the survey date (normally at the end of each quarter period). The rent quoted normally reflects prime units of over 500 sq. m. of lettable floorspace, which excludes rents that represent a premium level paid for a small quantity of space. Top Quartile Office Rent represents the average mean value of the top (25 %) quartile of all known face rents achieved on leasing transactions completed within a market during the survey period (normally calculated annually, or quarterly on a 12 monthly rolling basis). It excludes any unrepresentative deals. Weighted Average Rent represents the average mean value of all known face rents achieved on leasing transactions completed within a market during the survey period weighted with the floorspace (normally calculated annually, or quarterly on a 12 month rolling basis). It excludes any unrepresentative deals. Prime Yield Represents the best (i.e. lowest) rack-rented yield estimated to be achievable for a notional office property of the highest quality and specification in the best location in a market, as at the survey date (normally at the end of each quarter period). The property should be let at the prevailing market rent to a first class tenant with an occupational lease that is standard for the local market. The prime initial net yield is quoted, i.e., the initial net income at the date of purchase, expressed as a percentage of the total purchase price, which includes acquisition costs and transfer taxes. Vacancy Vacancy represents completed floorspace offered on the open market for leasing or sale, vacant for immediate occupation on the survey date (normally at the end of each quarter period), within a market. It includes all vacant accommodation irrespective of the quality of office space or the terms on which it is offered. Vacancy excludes obsolete or mothballed office property, i.e. floorspace held vacant and not being offered for letting, usually pending redevelopment or major refurbishment. Vacancy Rate The Vacancy Rate represents immediately vacant office floorspace in all completed buildings within a market as at the survey date (normally at the end of each quarter period), expressed as a percentage of the total stock. Stock Stock represents the total amount of completed office space in buildings mainly used for office purposes within a market that is capable of occupation regardless of the type of ownership or type of building quality, as at the survey (normally at the end of each quarter period). Completions Completions represent floor-space completed during the survey period (normally annually). Completions include new development and refurbished accommodation, speculative developments, pre-let floor space and space for owner-occupation..
