Translation of the Annual Report This annual report was prepared in German and later translated into French and English. The German version was reviewed by auditors and is legally binding. Notes on the Photography The series of London photographs in this Annual Report was taken by our photographer, Eliane Rutishauser, in the spring of 2012. Cover photo: From Tower Bridge there is a fine view of the south bank of the Thames, where the More London development project shows its best side with the distinctive skyscraper known as The Shard. Pages 2 3: Situated a little further upstream is the Oxo Tower. Originally built as a power-station for the Post Office, the building was owned for a long time by the Liebig Extract of Meat Company, famous for its OXO brand. Today the Oxo Tower is a mainly residential building. Page 16: View of the office building at 21 Tudor Street, which the AFIAA took into its portfolio this year. Page 20 21: Broadgate Tower, otherwise known as 201 Bishopsgate, is one of the tallest buildings in London. It rises above the tracks running into Liverpool Street Station. Page 22 23: Finsbury Avenue Square. Page 26 27: The Parliament View apartment building seen from Lambeth Bridge. Page 28: Victoria Street. Page 48 49: High Holborn. Page 4: The Gherkin scarcely needs an introduction. Perhaps just as well known is the computerized light animation by the artist Julian Opie. It fits perfectly into the neighborhood of the imposing tower. Pages 12 13: The unusual façade of the office building at One Coleman Street is quite eye-catching. All of the window panes are set at different angles. The building s life cycle assessment is also very impressive. Page 50: The Perspective Building, 100 Westminster Bridge Road.

AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Annual Report 5 Report from the Chairman of the Foundation Board Dear Colleagues: A challenging environment for investment Last summer marked the fifth anniversary of the outbreak of the financial crisis. Within a few business quarters, the central banks of the most important financial centers lowered their key lending rates by three to five percentage points and kept them at an exceptionally low level since then. The current investment environment in established markets continues to be characterized by low lending rates accompanied by moderate inflation and persistently low economic growth. Under these macro-economic conditions, standard strategies can be derived for institutional investors. An expansion of strategic allocation is anticipated in favor of corporate bonds, bonds issued by emerging countries, shares in globally active companies and the currencies of structurally strong growth economies. Flight to tangible assets It goes without saying that there will continue to be a strong demand for tangible assets such as real estate, precious metals, and commodities. The most important drivers behind this are the high degree of volatility in financial markets and the fear among many investors that expansionary monetary policy will fuel inflation. The customary investments in domestic residential properties play a particularly important role for Swiss occupational pension funds. More than CHF 100 billion of pension fund assets is currently invested in Swiss properties. In retrospect, the continuous appreciation of Swiss real estate over the past 20 years is fundamentally attributable to underlying factors. Population growth, inward migration, an upward trend in incomes, low interest rates, and at the very least, regional construction activity driven by population growth along with the flight to tangible assets are the reasons for the price rise and the investment crisis in the institutional real estate investment sector. International real estate investment as a profitable alternative We have noticed that the high level of prices in the Swiss real estate market and the shortage of opportunities in particular are increasingly causing second pillar investors to evaluate their commitments to international real estate. This suggests neither a total withdrawal from the Swiss real estate sector, nor the need to achieve better yields, but merely the application of the principle of diversification to the real estate sector. For most pension funds, venturing beyond the Swiss border involves delegating responsibility to a trustworthy service provider. The only investment foundation under Swiss law investing directly in international real estate, AFIAA has been offering its services exclusively to Swiss savings and pension funds as an independent and professional mutual aid organization and as a partner in the international real estate sector for over eight years. Clear strategy strengthened organization simple structures During the past year, the committees of our investment foundation have worked intensively on the AFIAA profile. In strategy sessions and workshops conducted under the heading setting the sights, the members of the Foundation Board and the Investment Committee have set down and compared their views on strategic orientation and the desired asset classes. On the basis of a detailed analysis of portfolios, markets, and correlations, clusters were defined that on one hand, embrace investment markets that are strong enough for us to build up and maintain specific market knowledge and a permanent market presence, but on the other hand offer a high potential for diversification among them. These clusters are subdivided into the three global regions of Europe, North America (excluding Mexico), and Oceania (mainly Australia); AFIAA is represented by its own staff in each. The strategic approach is clearly stated in the revised investment guidelines and in a concisely formulated investment profile for the benefit of investors and other stakeholders and also for business partners and property owners willing to sell. At the operational management level, responsibilities have been assigned on a strictly functional basis. Consequently, Christopher Duisberg, our branch director in New York, has been concentrating on managing our North American investments under the divisional supervision of the Head of Asset Management since the start of the current fiscal year, and has handed over responsibility for North American acquisitions to a newly recruited staff member. This activity will be further intensified and directed toward the next phase of corporate development with the integration of a Head of Global Acquisitions into Management. A decision was made to slim down the group structure. As part of the structural reforms of the BVG (Federal Law on Occupational Retirement, Survivors and Disability Pension Plans), the Verordnung für Anlagestiftungen (Swiss Federal Law on Investment Foundations) came into force on 01.01.2012. This law does not allow subsidiaries of an investment foundation to have any further holdings in its core assets. The AFIAA Investment AG is a subsidiary directly owned by the AFIAA; it has a further holding, AFIAA US Investment Inc. our management arm in North

6 Annual Report AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 America. Hence, a restructuring within the statutory time limit is necessary. The Foundation Board has decided not only to transfer the American company to the Separate Trust Assets of the AFIAA, but beyond that, to liquidate the operational Swiss management company, AFIAA Investment AG, whose operations will be performed directly by the Investment Foundation from then on. The tax advantages also favor this more comprehensive solution. In addition, this simplified structure will make it more evident that the operational units are working exclusively for AFIAA and in the sole interest of this Foundation and its investors. support of our plans for further growth. Thanks are also due to our colleagues in the Investment Committee for their wholehearted collaboration and valuable and constructive discussions. We thank the team at AFIAA for their professional commitment, and their tirelessly motivated dedication to the prosperity of our organization. Zurich, December 2012 On behalf of the Foundation Board Andreas Markwalder, President We extend our thanks to AFIAA investors for the confidence they have shown in us, and for their Report from the Management Committee Ladies and Gentlemen: Controlled growth AFIAA is determinedly pursuing a strategy of growth. The decisive factors here are the increased demand by investors for international real estate investments by means of transparent Swiss structures, and market growth anticipated in the years to come. We are working under the assumption that by the next full census in 2015, the overall market in international real estate investments within the second pillar (CHF 7.4 billion, according to 2010 pension fund statistics) will have grown significantly. Today AFIAA has a marketshare of at least 10 % and aims to expand this further in a growing overall market. We believe that in a rediscovered growth market we will be able to profit from our advantage as first mover and from our leading position on costs as a mutual self-help organization independent of the banks, as well as a certain skepticism towards financial institutions. AFIAA will soon offer new investors access to an attractive existing and internationally diversified portfolio currently comprising 28 direct investments. In the medium term, through the economies of scale and more improved diversification, existing Foundation members will benefit from our growth ambitions. The operational implementation of the growth strategy is preferably TER-neutral and premised on continuous quality assurance. The lead time necessary for building up internal resources and raising new funds places additional limits to growth. Budget, organization, and processes are designed to handle annual growth increments from CHF 250 million to 400 million of invested equity capital at a qualitatively high level. Discussions with potential new clients have intensified. A number of pension fund institutions, some of them quite large, are currently considering investing in AFIAA. Investment decisions are expected in the near future. Focused allocation by country AFIAA sees itself as a globally diversified Special Real Estate Asset. By regularly monitoring and adjusting the strategy within the existing investment guidelines, AFIAA sets its target criteria for acquisition activity during the next planning period. The objective distribution among individual countries is worked out in consideration of the degree of maturity and prospects of different markets. This planning enables us to focus the deployment of our internal resources, to profit from the cycles in real estate markets, and to convey to our investors a perspective assessment of the distribution by country. For AFIAA, the transparency and integrity of a market are the definitive criteria and prerequisites for efficiently assessing opportunities and risks. Hence, as a first stage, countries that do not fulfill our high demands for market transparency and (absence of) corruption are excluded across the board. The absence of the rule of law is also a criterion for excluding a country. The remaining

AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Annual Report 7 markets are assessed according to fundamental macro-economic data, as real estate markets do not function independently, but follow the general economic trend in the medium term. In particular, a country s overall economic performance (GDP), growth figures (prospects for growth in GDP), and national budget (national debt as a percentage of GDP). Additional criteria for assessment include the contribution of diversification to a national economy (correlations of the relevant growth in GDP to the growth in Switzerland s GDP), liquidity in the real estate market (transaction volume), supplies of raw materials (reserves of the most important non-renewable sources of energy), and economic stability (standard deviation of GDP growth rates). From among the list of preferred target countries for investment generated by the process described above, we evaluate the ones that match our current investment guidelines, which avoid cluster risks and promise the investor a defined net return on equity of currently at least 4.5 % after hypothetical hedging costs in the desired asset class of high quality core properties. Refined property strategy The committees of AFIAA have been working intensively on the profile of the investment vehicle, not only with regard to growth and macroeconomic allocation, but also with an eye to target cities and the availability and attractivity of properties. Today, AFIAA is pursuing a coherent core strategy with a weighted target of a minimum of 80 % core office properties (preferably with subsidiary retail use), and a modest admixture of Core-Plus properties. In addition, as a matter of principle, the latter are to be transferred to core properties in the medium term. It follows from this targeting that no compromises will be made in investment decisions with regard to the (unalterable) location of the properties, and therefore, out of a final list of selected major cities, investments will be made exclusively in central business districts (CBDs) and fringe CBD locations and in long-established and important submarkets. During the recent months, in order to make an overall assessment of investment opportunities, AFIAA developed a property rating system. The main idea behind this rating system is to make the evaluation of investment opportunities more objective and thus easier to compare. A property s location, quality, sustainability, and rental market are assigned different weightings and evaluated according to various criteria, whereby the location and quality of the property features which are impossible or very difficult to change are given a disproportionate share of 60 % on the influence on the outcome. On one hand, the rating system provides a preliminary sifting of investment opportunities, and on the other hand, it creates a foundation for evidence-based and structured discussion of the properties within the decision-making committees. As well, in terms of property rating management has a clear objective for acquisitions. Intensified acquisition activity In implementing the targeted growth strategy, AFIAA management is concentrating on the purchase of one property per quarter. Potential investment properties fall in the range of approximately CHF 40 million to CHF 140 million per property, though values around CHF 100 million are preferable in terms of fungibility. During the second and third quarters of 2012, we were able to maintain the desired activity rate with the purchase of 21 Tudor Street, London EC4, and 525 Flinders Street, Melbourne. Thanks to these purchases, the portfolio now comprises 28 direct investments, with a total market value of CHF 1,044.1 million. In the spring of 2012, AFIAA discontinued due diligence review on another property in Paris that was considered attractive initially. The main reasons were hard to quantify legal findings and construction defects. Last autumn, an assessment already underway for some time on an attractive property in Cologne was unexpectedly withdrawn by the owner. Important sources for our extensive pipeline of property offerings include the contact networks of our local staff and partners, especially project developers, proprietors (investment funds, insurance companies, family estates, etc.), real estate consultants, investment banks, major banks, and leading law firms. Thanks to our internationally experienced acquisitions team, which has been increased to four seasoned experts during the last financial year, we enjoy excellent personal contacts. Worthy of special mention is the extensive and robust network of the Head of Global Acquisitions, who over the course of his career has been responsible for worldwide real estate transactions for various institutional investors totaling more than CHF 7 billion. With this behind them, our Acquisition Department was able, during the financial year 2011/12, to examine roughly 1300 properties with a total value of about CHF 110 billion (a consistent volume of about 100 properties each month, worth between CHF 8 to 9 billion). After a rigorous pre-selection process, a steady pipeline of six to eight investment opportunities still remain that we continuously analyze through our local organizations and assess in our committees. Stable performance With a return on investment approaching 8 %, the overall performance of the Special Trust Assets for the 2011/2012 financial year is extremely positive. With equity capital of CHF 862.9 million as at 30 September 2012, we were able to achieve a stable net profit of CHF 46.8 million (before repair and

8 Annual Report AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 maintenance costs). After four successive financial years in which performance suffered from adverse foreign exchange trends, during the reporting year most of the relevant foreign currencies rose in value against the Swiss franc. On the other hand, capital losses from revaluations and high maintenance activity in the case of two properties have had a considerable one-off impact on the overall performance for 2011/12, which explain the currency-adjusted decline in overall performance from CHF 33.2 million to CHF 21.6 million. Revaluations of the portfolio stock led to a total reduction in value of CHF 10.6 million, or 1.22 % of invested equity capital. Of these non-realized capital losses, CHF 5.8 million results from ancillary purchase costs on the properties acquired in the year reported (21 Tudor Street in central London and 525 Flinders Street in Melbourne), which to a large extent were not covered by the expert valuation and led to a corresponding adjustment to their value. In order to partially compensate for these added property acquisition costs in future, or, as the case may be, to share the economic burden between old and new investors, the Foundation Board slightly adjusted the issue commission for capital commitments as at July 1, 2012 to a modest 1 to 2 % (depending on the total commitment). Despite the 22.16 % growth in the property portfolio and structural strengthening, the revised TER ISA dropped slightly to 0.55 %. The most important upward revaluation applied to Garrard House in London, where we were able to renew the lease with the single tenant, Schroders, with substantially improved terms. Other increases in value were seen on the newly positioned properties of Forum Zehlendorf in Berlin, and Westfalen-Center in Dortmund. The combined increase in the value of these two properties is CHF 8.5 million. However, this was matched by expenditures of a similar amount that affected profit (compare the maintenance and repair costs). The vacancy in Berlin due to renovation work accounts for roughly 0.6 percentage points of the total drop in rental income. Once the building project is completed, this figure should improve correspondingly. The largest share of the rental shortfall is attributable to the Rohr Road logistics property in Groveport (Ohio, USA). The decline in revenue due to non-occupancy of this property contributed CHF 1.8 million, or about 2.4 percentage-points, to the rental shortfall. Unfortunately, a party interested in leasing the Rohr Road property withdrew last summer after intensive negotiations. The largest downward valuation was recorded for the property in Munster (Germany) known as the Classical Service Center. The decisive factor there was a persistently difficult local rental market, which, in the view of management, was not adequately reflected in the existing valuation and prompted the AFIAA to have the property valued by a local expert. An adjustment for the corresponding value correction was made immediately. We are pleased to note the settlement of a legal dispute with the former tenant of our Spanish property. The roughly CHF 2 million payment received in compensation has been credited to the NAV. Expansion of organizational structure In addition to the enlarged staffing of the Acquisition Department and of the local management units in Sydney and New York, the Asset Management and Finance Departments as well as the areas of research and portfolio management have been strengthened. By means of detailed evaluations of markets and portfolios, these sections provide valuable basic data and action recommendations for the focus of acquisition or for property strategies within Asset Management. The Foundation Board and the Investment Committee also base their strategic determinations and purchase and sale decisions on the extensive documentation from Portfolio Management, among other things. This division is also responsible for property sales. The successful sale of a fairly small and non-strategic building in Düsseldorf by means of a tax-optimized sale of the relevant property company demonstrated our effectiveness and competence in this sphere as well. After deducting all costs, the sale yielded a gratifying capital gain. The internal resources devoted to managing the property can now be deployed more effectively to the AFIAA s larger existing holdings and future acquisitions. In the near future, other smaller properties are to be prepared for sale, so that the portfolio can be continuously optimized in terms of our revised property strategy in this way as well. Outlook A further property is currently undergoing the due diligence process. The real estate is a Grade A office building in the central business district of a major German city. The total investment costs anticipated amount to EUR 100 million. We are working towards the conclusion of a binding purchase contract within the next few weeks.

AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Annual Report 11 Direct Investments In the reporting period, AFIAA enlarged its portfolio with the acquisition of two properties, while it sold off a property in Düsseldorf. The property at 21 Tudor Street, London EC4, was taken into the portfolio in May. The acquisition of 525 Flinders Street in Melbourne was completed in June 2012.

The building was too small and lacked any long-term upside potential, either in rental or capital value. The sale price exceeded the book value of the property by about EUR 0.3 million, or 6 %.

The Foundation arranges for all its properties, whether held directly or indirectly through subsidiary companies, to be valued individually by one of these independent valuation experts at least once a year at the end of a business quarter and on other specially designated occasions. The Swiss valuation expert may call in a foreign expert to carry out the valuation in his place, provided the latter s qualifications fulfil the above-mentioned requirements. The independent Swiss valuation experts review all reports provided by local foreign experts. In particular, they ascertain that the valuation standards laid down in the Foundation s regulations have been correctly applied, and verify the valuation using recognized methods. The Foundation Board has appointed the following independent Swiss valuation experts: In addition, the management company handles the Foundation s accounting and maintains the register of investors. It is responsible for the issue and redemption of share certificates, liquidity planning, payment instructions, drafting the annual report and accounts, and running annual or multi-year budgets. Other tasks include periodic reporting of variances to the Foundation Board and quarterly NAV shareholding account statements, as well as the preparation of Foundation Board meetings.

Board of Directors Andreas Markwalder President; Gastro- Social External Body for Review of Compliance with Investment Guidelines An external body independent of the management company periodically monitors the observance of

AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Annual Financial Statement Appendix 31 the investment and financing guidelines. In addition to this, once a year, the external auditors monitoring compliance with investment guidelines must confirm that the compliance guidelines of the Conference of Investment Foundation Managers (KGAST) are being implemented properly. The firm of Ernst & Young AG, Zurich, has been entrusted with this task. Custodian Bank The custodian bank holds the accounts of the Investment Foundation and executes monetary transactions and short-term cash deposits. Bank Sarasin + Cie. AG, Zürich, acts as the custodian bank of AFIAA. Sales Commissions and Account Management Fees/Refunds Neither the AFIAA Investment Foundation, the AFIAA Investment AG, or any other AFIAA group companies have received any compensation or other form of remuneration for sales and customer services from banks or other sales partners during the reporting year, nor have they provided such services. No reimbursements of fees or commissions of any kind were made to investors. 2 Principles of Valuation and Reporting; Continuity Financial Reporting The financial statement of the Swiss Foundation for International Real estate Investments (AFIAA), presented below for the financial year that ended on 30.09.2012, was approved by the Foundation Board on 10.12.2012. The financial reporting accords with Swiss legislation, with the professional recommendations for accounting (the Swiss GAAP FER 26), and the Verordnungen über die Anlagestiftungen, or ASV (Regulations for Investment Foundations). These rules improve the comparability of the annual accounts and enhance their transparency and clarity. With regard to the consolidated annual report, please refer to the explanations below. For the purpose of consolidation, the same accounting principles were used as in the previous year. The financial year 2011/2012 represents a normal financial year for the AFIAA Investment Foundation, which covers the period from 01.10.2011 to 30.09.2012. Principles of Valuation and Financial Reporting Direct Investments The valuation of property assets is carried out in accordance with the professional recommendations of the Swiss GAAP FER 26, as well as the principle of fair value in conformity with the guidelines of the International Valuation Standards (IVS). The IVS define the market value as the proceeds that with a high degree of probability might be achieved through a sale in the open market, that is to say, under fair market conditions at the time of the valuation in a free market between well-informed parties. Included among the permitted methods for calculating market value are such conventional market procedures as market-oriented direct value comparison, cash equivalent, and the income approach. The method most commonly applied is the discounted cashflow method. Here the value of the property is defined as the sum of future net gains, discounted back to the date of valuation. Independent local experts carry out the valuation reports. Independent Swiss valuation experts review reports by local foreign experts, and verify the accuracy of methods used, checking for recognizable material divergences. The reports by the independent Swiss valuation experts become a component part of this annual report. AFIAA has the value of each property estimated at least once a year. The AFIAA s valuation guidelines provide for rolling valuations during the year. Valuations rendered at the end of different quarters make it possible to react swiftly to changes in market values. All market values calculated on a valuation-date prior to the closing date of financial reporting have been examined critically

32 Annual Financial Statement Appendix AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 at the end of the financial year and verified as to their validity at the closing date. Indirect Investments The balance statement of indirect investments is based on statements provided by the relevant management company, derived from quarterly reports and year-end accounts. In all cases the latest calculated net asset values are taken into account. Mortgage Loans The balance statement of mortgage loans shows the amount of the loan less any amortization payments made. The mortgage loans are adjusted in the local currency relevant to the investment property in question. As a hedge against the risk of changes in interest rates, in certain cases swap trades have been made. The combination of mortgage loans at variable interest rates and swap trades results in a fixed burden of interest over the life of the loans in question. Replacement values of swap contracts are quantified under Note IV, but are not included in the statement of assets. Liquidation Costs Liquidation costs are covered by reserves for eventual sales of real estate assets. They contain deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as additional transaction costs. For the subsidiary companies that hold real estate assets, the rule is that the positive differences between corporate value and taxable values at the year-end are taken into account as deferred tax liabilities (the liability method ). The deferred taxes on properties are calculated according to the tax rates applicable on the closing date, or the tax systems applicable to the property in question, as a matter of principle. The companies holding the properties are assessed, with regard to the deferred tax liability, according to the tax implications arising from the sale of the properties (even if a sale of the company shares were possible). Deferred tax credits are calculated based on negative differences in valuation, where they can be offset against profits for tax purposes. However, deferred transaction costs do not include any penalty costs in connection with an early repayment of mortgage loans. This also includes liquidation costs arising from hedge transactions. These costs are dependent on the interest level at the time of sale and reflect the market price of the mortgage. The provisions for liquidation costs are taken directly into the equity capital and have no effect on performance. Principles of Consolidation Methods of Consolidation The consolidated annual reports comprise the annual accounts of the Foundation (parent company) and the year-end accounts of the companies it controls, after internal group transactions have been eliminated. The foundation directly or indirectly owns 100 % of all subsidiary companies, and these are fully consolidated. The accounts of the Separate Trust Assets are kept separately from Administrative Accounts. Consolidation of Companies The group companies listed below are allocated either to the consolidation of Separate Trust Assets or to that of the Administrative Accounts. The consolidated annual accounts of the Separate Trust Assets represent the interests of the investors, while the actual functioning of the Foundation is shown in the consolidated Administrative Accounts. The consolidated account of the Separate Trust Assets has expanded with the addition of AFIAA London 2 and AFIAA Paris 1. The former was set up to acquire the Tudor Street property in London EC4, and the latter in connection with a planned investment in Paris. As the acquisition was not made, it remains available to act as a shell company for a future acquisition in France. In addition, AFIAA Australia 4 has been set up as a shell company for a future acquisition in Australia. During the reporting period, the German subsidiary, AFIAA Dock 13 Villa GmbH was sold. No companies were liquidated. The scope of consolidation of AFIAA s global Separate Trust Assets, as at the reporting date, included the following companies: Additional transaction costs, which are deferred, are fees specifically estimated for consultants and brokers, as well as fees arising from a sale. They are taken into account to the extent that they must be borne by the seller directly or indirectly by means of a deduction from the sale price according to local practice. As a rule, these transaction costs represent a negative difference between corporate and taxable values. Accordingly, they activate deferred tax credits, provided it appears certain that they can be offset against taxable revenues.

Consequently, exchangerate fluctuations influence AFIAA s financial report and profit statement, which are expressed in Swiss francs. Conversion of Subsidiary Company Earnings The assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiary companies are converted into Swiss francs at the median daily rate on the period closing date. Conversion of the items in the income statement is effected at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. The foreign exchange effects resulting from variations in exchange rates are recorded as currency differential due to consolidation and are profit-neutral. Other Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currency transactions are converted at the daily rate prevailing on the day of the transaction. Influences due to changes in exchange rates are entered under Shareholders Equity with no impact on profit. Currency Hedges No currency hedging is undertaken within the Separate Trust Assets. Any hedging of foreign currency risk is a matter for the investors.

The investment guidelines relevant to the reporting period were adopted by the Foundation Board on 12.12.2011. These guidelines are subordinated to the regulations of BVV 2, in particular, Art. 49 ff. and where applicable, the practice of the supervisory authorities for investment foundations derived from it, as well as the statutes and rules of the Foundation. The investment guidelines designate types of properties eligible for investment, investment principles to be observed, and the method of risk distribution. pendent of management, on a quarterly basis. All bodies and persons involved in the area of capital investment are subject to a strict duty of confidentiality. In addition, these persons are obliged to abide by the ASIP Charter and the KGAST code of professional conduct. Care is taken that the AFIAA collaborates only with partners who can demonstrate local and/or worldwide experience in order to minimize risk, and to benefit as much as possible from the partners international knowhow. Each investment decision is made by the In vestment Committee at the request of the Management Committee. The Management Committee is responsible for implementation of the guidelines and investment decisions. The investment strategy selected focuses on a diversified portfolio with stable direct investments and an admixture of fund units with a medium-term holding period. Compliance with the investment guidelines is checked with regard to every investment decision by the Investment Committee, and by a body inde-

38 Annual Financial Statement Appendix AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Details on Overall Performance The overall result for the financial year can be broken down into various components, differentiating between current performance and valuation outcome, yields from direct investments and investment funds, and between performance in local currency and the overall performance adjusted for currency fluctuations. The net performance represents the current revenues earned from assets after deduction of all costs. Unlike the overall performance, which reflects the total value contribution, it includes neither capital gains/losses nor currency gains/ losses. The return on equity capital, as defined by the KGAST bulletin, dated 01.04.2010, is explained in Section 5, along with the other key indicators. It is broken down into various components, as shown below. The latest edition of the KGAST bulletin, Key indicators of real estate special assets (investment groups) in investment foundations, makes clear that the net assets as at the end of the period, and not the average net assets, should be taken as the reference value for calculating the return on equity capital. Hence, the individual components of the return on equity capital have been calculated on the same basis.

40 Annual Financial Statement Appendix AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 4 Notes on Other Balance-Sheet Items and Income Statement The following notes refer to the relevant balancesheet positions of the Separate Trust Assets. I Indirect Investments In the process of expanding the portfolio since the first financial year of 2004/2005, AFIAA achieved rapid diversification by investing in the indirect investment sector. As at the balance-sheet date in 2012, there are still two indirect investment holdings in the portfolio. Fund investments as a proportion of total investments were 3.32 % at the balance-sheet date (previous year 3.76 %). The indirect real estate investments comprise holdings in funds that are not listed on the stock market. The capital commitment can be divided into a sum already invested (called) and a sum yet to be invested (outstanding commitments). As at 30.09.2012, outstanding commitments only amounted to CHF 1.0 million. The fund management companies issue financial statements after a certain time lag. In this Annual Report, the NAVs of the residual fund investments reflect the current reported NAVs as at 30.09.2012. mains our objective. As early as the 2008/09 financial year, AFIAA examined and negotiated the opportunity for a timely withdrawal from HUSCOF. The offer to buy back the shares at the NAV value as at 31.12.2009 was in place. However, in view of the fund s recovery potential, we declined to sell at the values prevailing at the time. Nevertheless, various preferred call privileges were secured which would have permitted an exit at the end of 2011. AFIAA decided not to exercise the option to redeem at the end of 2012. We still have a final option to exit at the end of 2013. The strategy of retaining our investment for the time being has so far proved correct, as the holding in HUSCOF has made a massive recovery from its all-time low in December 2009. The AIG U.S. Residential Fund runs until August 2013 with two options for a one-year extension. According to the fund s management, it is probable that these options will be exercised, but the majority of the investments are to be disposed of starting as early as 2013. After several financial years with high value-corrections in the indirect investment sector, the two remaining funds show substantial recoveries in value both in the reporting year and also in the previous period. In aggregate, we have been able to register an unrealized capital gain of CHF 1.4 million (previous year: CHF 5.4 million). In relation to the fund s NAV as at 30.09.2011, this is equivalent to a value-change yield of 4.10 % (previous year: 18.00 %). The Hines U.S. Core Office Fund (HUSCOF) contributed to our overall performance during the AFIAA reporting year with a capital gain of CHF 2.5 million, equivalent to a value-change return of 10.05 % (Previous year: + CHF 3.8 million; + 16.79 %). As forecast by HUSCOF, CHF 0.9 million of dividends were distributed during the financial year just ended. Due to the substantial distributions amounting to CHF 2.6 million, shares in the AIG U.S. Residential Fund declined somewhat in value in the reporting period. With invested assets amounting to CHF 7.3 million, value-corrections of CHF 1.2 million or 14.14 % were recorded (previous year: CHF 1.5 million; + 21.86 %). Despite the gratifying overall performance of the fund investments, AFIAA continues to adhere to its decision to concentrate on direct investments. An exit from the funds in the medium term re-

These structural measures serve to reduce liability risks. During the current reporting year, one property in Germany was sold. All market values of direct investments have been checked in the reporting year by independent valuation experts, and revalued in accordance with the prevailing guidelines. The valuations comply with the professional recommendations of Swiss GAAP FER 26, as well as with the International Valuation Standards (IVS), which are laid down by the International Valuation Standards Committee (IVSC). The total value of the 28 direct real estate investments was CHF 1 044 144 on the reporting date.

Deferred tax credits arising from losses carried forward are taken into account where it is probable that taxable income will be liquid, against which losses carried forward can be offset. The rise in these tax credits is predominantly attributable to accumulated depreciation. These financial assets are matched by deferred tax liabilities arising from positive differences in valuation or, as the case may be, reduced deferred tax credits arising from negative differences in valuation,

42 Annual Financial Statement Appendix AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 a fact that is reflected in the balance-sheet item estimated liquidation expenses. The tax credits arising from tax deferrals are the financial effects of outstanding interest payments on intercompany loans in U.S. dollars. These interest charges cannot be offset until the tax period in which the interest is paid.

In the same way, replacement values of swap trades are not shown in the balance sheet.

AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Annual Financial Statement Appendix 43 V Financial Liabilities to Investors Financial liabilities to the investors comprise previously invested funds that have not yet been converted into shares. Conversion takes place at the beginning of a quarter on the basis of the Net Asset Value (NAV) in the previous quarter. Since there were no capital calls in the last quarter of the reporting period, there were no liabilities to investors as at 30.09.2012. VI Liquidation Costs The calculation of the provisions for deferred liquidation taxes was carried out as described in Section 2 and calculated by the local tax experts at individual property level at the time of purchase. The provisions for deferred liquidation taxes are adjusted to correspond to the altered valuations of the individual properties. in thousand CHF Book value Book value Change 30.09.2012 30.09.2011 Deferred tax credits arising from negative 5 192 3 575 1 617 differences in valuation Deferred tax liabilities arising from positive (27 417) (22 584) (4 833 ) differences in valuation Additional transaction costs (16 042) (13 845) (2 198) Total (38 267) (32 854) (5 413) VII Local Management Expenses In this report, the costs subsumed under this heading are the decentralized costs incurred in the companies that own and operate the properties, but which lie outside actual operating costs.

AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Annual Financial Statement Appendix 45 5 Key Figures as Required by KGAST The following figures comply with the professional bulletin from KGAST dated 01.04.2010: Rate of Rental Income Loss Due to Vacancy The rental income loss rate is defined as the rental shortfall (losses from unoccupied premises and collection losses) as a percentage of the net budgeted rentals for the reporting period. It is an important indicator of the letting status for completed buildings held as investment properties. AFIAA gives a broad interpretation to the concept of rental income loss and, in calculating the rate of rental income loss, account is taken not only of collection losses and changes in provision for bad debts on outstanding rent, but also actual shortfalls and provision for incidental costs. in thousand CHF 2011/2012 2010/2011 Budgeted rental income per balance sheet 88 284 80 971 Absorbed ancillary costs (12 903) (12 531) Budgeted net rental income 75 381 68 440 Loss of income due to vacancy (6 856) (5 348) Collection losses / changes to bad-debt provision (265) (1 315) Total rental income loss (7 121) (6 663) As a percentage of net budgeted rental income 9.45 % 9.71 % Borrowing Ratio The borrowing ratio shows the amount of external financing in relation to the market value of the properties. It shows the level of external real estate debt financing. in thousand CHF 2011/2012 2010/2011 Market value of direct investments 1 044 144 850 780 Long-term mortgages 226 448 250 823 Short-term mortgages 50 257 23 675 Total mortgages 276 705 274 498 As a percentage of market value of direct investments 26.50 % 32.27 % Operating Profit Margin The operating profit margin is one of the most important indicators in corporate analysis. It expresses the operating profit that is left after deduction of operating expenses as a percentage of the net rental revenue. In international practice, the ancillary operating costs are generally presented as gross figures; that is to say, the amount invoiced to the tenants is shown as revenue and the payments are shown in full as expenses. This contrasts with Swiss practice, by which a netting-off is done within the expenses. Hence, the yield from properties according to the income statement below is shown after deduction of ancillary costs, in order to ensure comparability at the level of net rental revenue. in thousand CHF 2011/2012 2010/2011 Income from real estate assets per income statement 81 163 75 046 Absorbed ancillary costs (12 903) (12 531) Net rental income 68 260 62 515 Operating income 48 504 47 756 Leasehold fees (1 152) (850) Repairs 10 040 5 352 Operating profit per KGAST definition 57 392 52 258 As a percentage of net rental income 84.08 % 83.60 %

46 Annual Financial Statement Appendix AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Total Expense Ratio (TER ISA ) The Total Expense Ratio, or TER ISA (Immo bi lien Sondervermögen Anlagestiftungen, or separate trust assets in real estate investment foundations ) is defined as the operating expenses for the Separate Trust Assets (investment group) as a percentage of the average total assets (sum of all assets). TER ISA is an indicator of the burden of operating expenditure on a special real estate asset (investment group). According to the definition, the property management costs are explicitly relevant to the TER ISA. Acquisition expenses for purchases that were not finalized are not included. in thousand CHF 2011/2012 2010/2011 Total assets at start of financial year 1 025 230 1 088 938 Total assets at end of financial year 1 194 997 1 025 230 Average total assets 1 110 114 1 057 084 Administrative expenses (Separate Trust Assets) 5 517 5 661 Acquisition expenses (254) (679) Property management fees 808 948 Operating expenses (Separate Trust Assets) 6 071 5 930 As a percentage of average balance of total assets 0.55 % 0.56 % Return on Equity (ROE) The return on equity (ROE) represents the total performance over the financial year as a percentage of the average net assets of the Separate Trust Assets. It expresses the return on shareholder equity. The latest revision of the KGAST bulletin Key Indicators of Separate Trust Assets (investment groups) in Investment Foundations stipulates that the net assets as at the end of the period, rather than the average net assets, be used as the reference value. Buying into Current Income when shares are issued, and the Adjustment of Current Income upon the repurchase of shares, enable direct comparison of the overall performance with net assets at the end of the period. The indicator for the reporting year has been calculated in accordance with the updated bulletin. The statement of the comparison period has been adjusted for the reporting year. in thousand CHF 2011/2012 2010/2011 Net assets at end of financial year 862 890 704 105 Total profit (loss) 61 882 (26 350) As a percentage of net assets at end of financial year 7.17 % (3.74 %) Return on Investment Return on investment is defined as the relative change in the net inventory value of the shares in the period under consideration, assuming the reinvestment of any distributed proceeds. It expresses the overall return achieved for the investors. in CHF 2011/2012 2010/2011 Net assets per share at start of financial year 107.2718 111.3394 Net assets per share at end of financial year (adjusted for 115.8111 107.2718 dividends * ) Change in net assets per share 8.5394 (4.0676) As a percentage of net assets at start of financial year 7.96 % (3.66 %)

AFIAA Annual Report 2011/2012 Additional Information 55 Statement of Valuation of the AFIAA Real Estate Portfolio of Direct Investments Submitted by the Independent Swiss Property Valuation Experts for the 2011/2012 Financial Year Commission In accordance with Art. 3, paras. 6 and 7, of the AFIAA regulations dated 10.10.2009, as well as the AFIAA Valuation Process updated 31.08.2009, the properties held by the AFIAA must be valued annually at their market value by independent local valuation experts. These valuations have been carefully checked and verified by a Swiss valuation expert to ensure uniform and correct application of the valuation methods prescribed in the regulations. Daniel Conca, of Murten, and Martin Frei, of Immoconsult Martin Frei, Zurich, have been selected as the Swiss valuation experts. They meet the requirements necessary for the admittance of valuation experts by the FINMA (Swiss federal law on collective capital investments KAG, Art. 64, or previously Art. 50 of the Investment Funds Order AFV). Standards of Valuation The result of a valuation is a statement of market value. The valuation of property assets is carried out according to the principle of fair value, i.e., the estimated market value is taken as the sales price that can be agreed upon under fair market conditions at the time of the valuation between well-informed independent parties in a free market. Daniel Conca and Martin Frei confirm that the methods used by the local valuation experts conform to the AFIAA guidelines and those of the International Valuation Standards Committee (IVSC), and/or nationally recognized and customary standards under Fig. 1 Para. 3 of the abovenamed guidelines. Methods of Valuation The independent local valuation experts generally use the discounted cash-flow method or the cash value method for their valuations. In the former case, the value of the building is defined as the sum of future net revenues, discounted back to the valuation date. The discount rate chosen is determined by the market conditions for each property. Independent Status All local and Swiss valuation experts certify their independence from the AFIAA and from persons associated with the AFIAA. The following local valuation experts were retained to provide valuations: Ehrenberg Niemeyer Adam, Germany Jochen Niemeyer CBRE GmbH, Germany Stefan Gunkel EHL Immobilien GmbH, Austria Wolfgang Wagner Real Estate Advisory Group REAG, France Gildas de Kermenguy Gestion de Valoraciones y Tasaciones GESVALT SA, Spain Sergio Espadero Cushman & Wakefield, United Kingdom Andy Miles Colliers International, Scotland Andrew G.
