Risk factors Macro-economic development Norway has experienced a long period with increasing house-building activity and low interest rates. Macro-economic experts, as well as financial markets, expect an overall reduction in the total house-building activity as well as a modest increase in interest rates. A sharp increase in interest rates, and/or an adverse change in other economic variables for which the Company s end customers are sensitive to could affect Hansa Property Group s (HPG or Company) ability to sell its projects within the required time frame at the required price level. Such a scenario could therefore have a material adverse effect on HPG s operating results and financial condition. Risk associated with obtaining planning permission and other regulatory consents Changes in, or completion, of existing or new planning regulations by relevant authorities may significantly affect the development of the Company s properties. Furthermore, existing planning regulations may limit the possibility to further develop the properties in this regard. The level of utilization allowed for land subject to a development project will significantly affect the profitability of the project. There can be no assurance that the Company will obtain planning permission for utilization at the assumed levels. Planning authorities do also have the discretion to set conditions for planning permissions, including the right to require the Company to make costly investments or the right to set conditions based on environmental or other considerations, or even deny use of properties as a whole as building ground, which each and all may adversely affect a project s profitability. Parts of the properties require significant changes to existing planning regulations, and some properties and more areas of the properties are yet to yet to be regulated. There are several factors beyond the control of the Company that can adversely affect the planned utilization and regulation of the property, including projected time frame and volume for the development, and, consequently, the basis for the acquisition of the projects. Access to financial funding In addition to cash generated from operations, HGP may be dependent upon having access to loans and credit lines to fund its operations and capital expenditures. Should the Company experience weakening markets and lower cash flow, the Company may have to make substantial changes in its business plans including curtailing new development projects to adapt the business to the funds available. Changes in the rate of interest charged on the Company s borrowings will have an impact on the Company s finance cost. However, variations in the interest rate may be compensated by entering fixed interest rate contracts. Project planning There can be no assurance that the HPG in the future will manage to develop projects which are seen as sufficiently attractive by customers to achieve the prices necessary to secure the necessary project profitability for HPG. Risk associated with use of contractors construction and development costs HPG will utilize the services of external construction contractors and service providers in connection with the development and construction of new projects. The Company will endeavour to use established contractors with a long track record for its projects. However, HPG will be exposed to losses and extra costs on projects if a contractor should experience financial difficulties. HPG will also be exposed to cost overruns on projects for instance in the event of changes in plans or additional work outside the scope originally agreed should become necessary during the construction phase. The development of prospective construction costs is uncertain The construction business in Norway is currently experiencing capacity problems due to high activity. Lack of skilled manpower is a problem in some areas. Capacity constraints experienced by construction contractors can negatively affect the Company s ability to complete projects on time and on budget, and its overall ability to develop and sell a sufficient number of housing units to fulfil its business plans. Demand for office space and tenant risk The demand for office/retail space is influenced by several factors, on both a micro and macro level. Negative changes in the general economic situation, including business and private spending, may adversely affect the demand for office space. Historically, positive developments in the office property market have been followed by increased construction of office properties. This may lead to oversupply and increased vacancies. The long lead time of construction may further increase this effect, as construction that has been started in general will be finalized regardless of any market slowdown. The tenants financial status and strength, and thus their ability to service the rent etc. will always be a decisive factor when evaluating the risk of property projects. Termination of leases with subsequent vacancy of the premises, or lower rent levels, will influence the rental income negatively. Key personnel HPG is dependent upon that the management company attracts and retain key employees and management personnel, in particular within the areas of project planning and development and management and administration of property projects. Personnel with competence in these areas are attractive in the market. Competition for qualified staff and other factors could adversely affect the Company s ability to attract and retain key employees. The loss of the services of key personnel may adversely affect the Company s operating results and financial condition. The success of the company is to some extent connected to the competence and the experience of key personnel in the administration and in the board of the company. The company s growth and results are consequently dependent on these persons. Limited history as an operating company The Company has only recently been formed and acquired its assets. Further assets and projects are planned to be acquired. The Company is still in the process of recruiting employees and establishing its working routines. There can be no guarantee that the company will not experience unexpected problems in relation to individual assets that it has acquired, or that it will be able to recruit and retain the staff that it requires. 11
