SECURE PROPERTY Development & Investments Ltd (LSE:SPDI), a South Eastern European focused property and investment company, today announces its full year results for the year ended 31 December 2012.This is the Company's first full year of operation since the new management was introduced in August 2011 and the results show transformational improvements across all major financial and operational metrics.

-- Two respected and experienced non-executive directors were appointed during the year to improve Corporate Governance and strengthen the management team. The following joined the Board during the year;

- Harin Thaker, former Head of International Real Estate Finance at pbb Deutsche Pfandbriefbank AG

- Alvaro Portela, the previous Executive President and Chief Executive Officer of Sonnae Sierra, a global leader in retail property development and management

Lambros Anagnostopoulos, Chief Executive Officer at SECURE PROPERTY Development & Investments, commented:

"2012 was a transformational year for the Company in which we successfully completed our turnaround strategy, recording substantial increases across all our key metrics. With a new name and new vision, the Company now scarcely resembles the troubled entity it was only a mere 18 months ago when the current management team, backed by a group of new shareholders, took over.

"We are now firmly on track to enter the second phase of the Company's evolution having raised a total of $30m in the last eighteen months, from a number of well-respected individual and institutional investors, to fund SPDI's strategy to expand in the SEE region at a time when prices are still depressed from the economic crisis. We believe significant opportunities exist to acquire under-priced or distressed assets where we believe we can create value from asset management, as we have demonstrated at Terminal Brovary, with the opportunity to also benefit from any improvement in market sentiment."

1. Chairman's Statement

Following the transformation of 2011, 2012 has been a year of consolidation for the Group, which has emerged much stronger, and is poised for further positive changes in 2013. High on the list of achievements in 2012 were the successful leasing of the remainder of Brovary Terminal, which helped to enable the company to achieve a small net profit of $61,550, compared the $1.1m loss of the previous year. The high quality tenants that have signed new leases at Brovary are doing so at rates 20% than the average rent at the end of 2011, a testament both to the capabilities of the new management team and the much better market conditions for logistics operators in Ukraine in 2012, a trend which looks likely to continue due to a lack of new facilities and steady growth in demand. Also encouraging was the raising of new equity in early 2013, which will enable the Group to embark on its growth plan in 2013, which will diversify the Group's exposure with the purchase of Grade A investment properties on low valuations in Romania and Bulgaria, markets that offer stable income flows and considerable upside in the future through yield compression from their current depressed levels. The Group is firmly on track to achieve its goal of being cash flow positive in 2013.

During 2012 the Board was considerably strengthened with the addition of two new members, Harin Thaker and Alvaro Portela, both of whom have had long and highly successful careers in property. I would like to welcome them, and thank the rest of the Board and Management for their tireless dedication in what has remained a very difficult environment in European capital markets, especially for smaller companies like ours.

These achievements were made in what has remained a very difficult environment in European capital markets, especially for smaller companies like ours. I would like to thank the Management and Board for their tireless dedication in overcoming these challenges. The Group is still very much on track to achieve much more in coming years.

2. Letter to the Shareholders

20 March 2013

Dear shareholder,

2012 could be remembered in the future as the year when Europe began to finally act towards overcoming the troubles it has been battling since the onset of the financial crisis at the end of 2007. A combination of election results and institutional (ECB, Eurogroup, etc) decisions brought a turnaround in the sentiment and signalled hope for the continent's economics and currency. Unfortunately the positive sentiments were shortlived and events in March of 2013 signalled, yet again, increased uncertainty and doubt on the future of the European experiment. For our Company, 2012 was the year of its re-birth. We completed the turnaround that had started a year earlier and, perhaps more importantly, we commenced the implementation of our growth strategy. As a result, the Company is now well positioned and looks forward to a brighter future.

The turnaround effort assumed by the new management in August 2011 was effectively completed by mid-2012. More specifically, during this period the Company's annual revenues increased by a factor of 4, while its annual operating costs decreased by over 50%. The liabilities / payables of the Company were reduced by a factor of 7 and as a result of all this the Company's net equity increased by a factor of 4(compared to August 2011).

As a result of the improvements detailed above, we are very pleased to be able to report an increase in operating profit of almost 200% to $2.3m (2011: $0.8m) and a return to profitability for the first time in years with profits before tax of $145,000 compared to a loss of $843,999 in 2011.

As difficult it is to achieve such immense transformation by itself, our Company effected this turnaround while in a mode of intensive cost minimisation and liquidity constraints highlighted and anchored by the management and board members decision to defer their salaries until such transformation is completed. Furthermore, as the liquidity needs of the Company grew, reflecting increasing past liabilities, more capital became available both through Narrowpeak, the key turnaround investor, as well as from other existing and new shareholders, contributing a total of $4m during the year (both in equity and debt), as per the original 2011 plan.

The end of the turnaround process was signalled by the change of the Company's name to SECURE Property Development and Investment, borrowing the name and logo from SECURE Management, Narrowpeak's property operational affiliate with extensive track record and goodwill in the region.

On the asset management front, the Company's key income producing asset, Terminal Brovary, started the year with half occupancy, and a new commercial manager. Throughout the year, intensive asset management efforts brought success in leasing all the warehouse area of Brovary (90% of total Gross Leasable Area) at rates 20% higher than the existing average rent at last year's end and 40% higher than the average rent of the pre-restructuring era. By attracting internationally renowned tenants such as Amway, Rhenus, FM Logistics, Sigma Bleyzer, Pernod Ricard and Billa and by increasing annual cashflow from the property to $3.5m we have been able to create an institutional quality logistics asset.

Having successfully executed the turnaround plan and completed its task of leasing Brovary so that it provides a healthy level of recurring and visible revenue, the management of the Company put in place the first stage of its Growth Plan. This strategy involves expanding and diversifying into other South East European countries, and particularly Romania and Bulgaria, by acquiring high value and/or high value added property assets with considerable upside potential.

The South East European region has witnessed a substantial economic slow-down during the last four years, mostly as a collateral damage of the Euro and Greek crisis. It is noteworthy that a large percentage of both Romania's and Bulgaria's banking systems are owned by Greek and Austrian banks, which, despite being healthy enough themselves, suffered from the deleveraging imposed on them and necessitated by their international parent banks. This slow down caused a shock in the regional property markets creating a step down in demand, a liquidity crunch, leverage unavailability and a consequent collapse in property prices. In turn, this has generated a substantial number of distressed projects and property owners.

Despite these factors, the economies in the region still grew at a higher rate than the European average, and they command better fundamentals than their peers in the Eurozone's periphery. With low unemployment, minimal private and low government debt (as a percentage of GDP), a very well educated workforce and (for Romania) a strong industrial base, these economies are poised to continue to outperform as the market improves.

The property markets of the South East European countries opened up to foreign funded development and investment later than any in East Europe, with mass FDI influx being seen as late as 2005. Consequently, not much new property stock had time to be built before the global financial crisis impacted the region (late 2008). Consequently, the needs of the market (ie demand) are substantially greater than both current, and, more importantly, potential near term supply. As such the region combines good economic and excellent property market fundamentals, a rare combination which is difficult to find anywhere in the world without a consequential over-inflation of pricing attached to it.

The Company's strategy is to expand in the region now that prices are still reeling from the crisis shock and take advantage of underpriced assets or distress opportunities similar to the turnaround of the Company itself effected in the last 16 months in order to create value through its own asset management and take advantage of any improvement in market sentiment.

In the last quarter of 2012 the Company embarked on a fundraising effort to attract new investors that share its strategic view of the market opportunity and, in February 2013, the Company announced that it had raised $17m of fresh capital from a number of well respected individual and institutional shareholders. We have begun the process of putting these proceeds to work having already agreed heads of terms for the acquisition of an income producing commercial asset in Bucharest. This, along with the other opportunities we are assessing, will help further strengthen the Company's ability to generate recurring income and offer the potential for value enhancement through capital appreciation. The fundraising effort will continue as and when new interesting opportunities for acquisition are identified.

The Company now scarcely resembles the troubled entity it was only 18 months ago. With a new name and vision, a new strategy focussed on growth and a committed management team, SECURE Property and its shareholders have every right to raise their expectations. As the management who have spearheaded this turnaround and are directing SECURE Property's future course, we can assure both the old investors, who have endured the difficult times and kept faith, as well as the new investors, who share our dream and vision, that we will do everything it takes to maintain the positive momentum already achieved and attain an even brighter future for our Company.

Best regards,

3. Management Report

3.1. Corporate Overview & Financial Performance

 
 The Company's management spent the better part of 2012 completing 
  its turnaround both by continuing to reduce and control costs, 
  and also putting heavy emphasis on increasing revenue generation 
  by substantially improving occupancy at Terminal Brovary. At 
  the same time we addressed and settled most of the pre-August 
  2011 liabilities both in a friendly basis, through out of court 
  settlements as well as through the court system. 
 
  Most notably, in July 2012 the Company reached an out of court 
  settlement with UVK, previously a potential Brovary tenant, 
  over a $1.5m claim which had been ongoing for more than three 
  years and was settled, after a series of court hearings, at 
  a significant discount to the nominal amount of the claim. 
 
  While dealing with those financial and legal liabilities, the 
  management took substantial care in managing the liquidity of 
  the Company, given the limited resources available to it. In 
  addition, the Company succeeded in attracting over $4m of fresh 
  capital with $2.3 million being raised through the issue of 
  new ordinary shares during the first half of the year and, in 
  October, raising $1.7m in debt. This was paramount in ensuring 
  that liquidity did not hold the company back from achieving 
  its ambitions. 
 
  By the end of the year, the Company was much leaner both in 
  terms of administrative expenses, (reduced from $5.5m in 2011 
  to $3.2m in 2012) and in terms of human resources (reduced by 
  46% over the previous year). 
 
  This progress was then built on when, in February 2013, the 
  Company raised a further $17m from the issue of new ordinary 
  shares, securing sufficient funds to provide medium term liquidity 
  and to start investing for growth. 
 
  With the past liabilities being addressed, management has gradually 
  shifted more of its efforts to identifying growth opportunities 
  and to try raising capital in order to take advantage of them. 
  Indeed, and as a means to diversify risk various income producing 
  properties have been identified and contracted for acquisition 
  via Head of Terms expected to materialize during 2013. 
 In its push to further improve Corporate Governance, SECURE 
  Property attracted two new heavyweight non-executive directors 
  during the first half of the year. Harin Thaker, the former 
  Head of Real Estate Finance International at PBB Deutsche Pfandbriefbank 
  AG, a specialist lender in real estate finance and public sector 
  finance, and Alvaro Portela, the previous Executive President 
  and Chief Executive Officer of Sonnae Sierra, a global leader 
  in retail property development and management, leading global 
  retail property company, joined the Board bringing vast expertise 
  and knowledge of both the region and the subject matter. 
 As mandated by the Board in early 2012, the Audit Committee 
  introduced new audit procedures to enhance the Board's supervisory 
  and controlling capabilities. To that effect the Audit Committee 
  has also been in contact with the Auditor of the Company both 
  to verify the working of the 2011 audit as well as for the timely 
  preparation of the 2012 audit. 
 The Board's Remuneration Committee prepared the outline of a 
  new incentive and compensation scheme that will be offered to 
  the Company's management executives and directors and will help 
  align interests, while rewarding for high performance and creation 
  of shareholder value. 
 The Board is ultimately responsible for the Group's financial 
  reporting, internal control and risk management systems. The 
  Finance Department prepares detailed budgets and cash flow projections, 
  which are approved annually by the Board and updated regularly 
  throughout the year. Ongoing financial control is the responsibility 
  of the management. A control structure is in place with defined 
  delegated authorities and signatory rights for both management 
  decisions and cash payments throughout the Group. 
       The Company's turnaround is most clearly demonstrated by its 
     financial performance for the year in comparison with the previous 
       one. Income increased by 400% to $2.1 million, while operating 
       expenses decreased by 40% to $3.2m. This resulted in an EBITDA 
       improvement of 290% to $2.3m and a NPAT of $60,000 (2011: Loss 
                                 of $1.1m). 
 
   3.2.         Property Holdings 
 
 The Company's portfolio, currently entirely focused on Ukraine, 
  comprises of one income producing property and four development 
  projects at different stages in the development process. 
 
  Terminal Brovary Logistic Park consists of a 49,180 sqm Class 
  A warehouse and associated office space, situated on the junction 
  of the main Kyiv - Moscow highway and the Borispil road. The 
  facility has been in operation since Q1 2010 and as at the 
  end of the reporting period was 84% leased. 
  Bela Logistic Centre is a 22.4 ha plot in Odessa situated on 
  the main highway to Kyiv. Following the issuance of permits 
  in 2008, below ground construction for the development of a 
  103,000 sqm GBA logistic centre commenced. Construction was 
  put on hold in 2009 due to the global economic crisis. During 
  2012 we have held negotiations with a number of interested 
  parties with regard to a possible sale of this asset. 
 
  Kiyanovsky Lane consists of four adjacent plots of land, totaling 
  0.55 ha earmarked for a residential development, which are 
  well located, overlooking the scenic Dnipro River, St. Michaels's 
  Spires and historic Podil neighborhood. 
 
  Tsymlyanski Lane is a 0.36 ha plot of land located in the historic 
  Podil District of Kyiv earmarked for the development of a residential 
  complex. 
 
  Balabino project is a 26.38 ha plot of land situated on the 
  south entrance of Zaporozhye, a city in the south of Ukraine 
  with a population of 800,000 people. Balabino is zoned for 
  retail and entertainment development. 
 In 2012, the Company re-appointed BNP Paribas as its valuer. 
  The valuations have been carried out by the appraisers on the 
  basis of Market Value in accordance with the appropriate sections 
  of the current Practice Statements contained within the Royal 
  Institution of Chartered Surveyors ("RICS") Appraisal and Valuation 
  Standards, 7(th) Edition (the "Red Book"). 
      At the year-end, the Company's property assets held a value 
    of $47.6m, an increase of 8.2% from the December 2011 valuation. 
  This increase can be attributed mostly to the doubling of occupancy, 
      as well as to an increase of the average unit rental revenue 
                    of the Brovary Logistics Center. 
 
    The Net Equity attributable to the shareholders as at 31 December 
       2012 stood at $33.9m representing a 400% increase over the 
                        June 2011 ($8.5m) figure. 
 
      The NAV per share as at 31 December 2012 stood at $3.05 ($2.67 
                             fully diluted). 
 
   3.3.         Financial and Risk Management 
 
 The Group's overall debt exposure at the reporting date comprises 
  of a $15.5m net construction loan to Aisi Brovary from EBRD, 
  which was originally restructured in June 2011, and a $1.7m 
  loan from a related party. In June 2012 the Company engaged 
  in discussions with EBRD in order to match cash inflows from 
  the asset with the debt amortization plan. Overall the Group's 
  gearing ratio (debt/equity) stands at 0.54x. 
 Throughout 2012 the Company continued to preserve liquidity 
  and optimize its cash flow in a worsening credit environment. 
  By maintaining a tight cash flow schedule, the Company has 
  been able to manage its liabilities while preparing its growth 
  strategy. 
 
   3.4.         2013 and beyond 
 
 At the end of 2012 and into 2013 the real estate market has 
  started to show signs of recovery. The Euro collapse having 
  been averted last year, the European banks are pushing forward 
  with their deleveraging plans, raising hopes that some forms 
  of leverage will become increasingly available this year. 
  The Greek banks (owners of a large number of banking institutions 
  in both Ukraine and other countries of South East Europe) 
  have also been saved by the European bailout mechanism and 
  are in the process of being recapitalized, signaling a turn 
  towards business as usual in the not too distant future. Conclusive 
  elections in both Ukraine and Romania in the last quarter 
  of the year offer further political stability, a necessary 
  base for any property market upswing. 
 
  2013 will be the first year in many that the Company follows 
  a growth path. Having raised fresh capital in February, the 
  Company is planning to expand regionally by acquiring good 
  underpriced income producing assets, as well as exploiting 
  other high upside potential opportunities, in a distressed 
  market environment. In line with its policy of pursuing best 
  practice and robust corporate governance, the Company will 
  keep its cost minimization policies and risk control practices, 
  ensuring both its financial health and its successful contribution 
  to its social and physical environment. 
 

4. Regional Economic Developments

4.1. Ukraine

 
               The Ukrainian economy recorded in the third quarter of 2012 
               negative growth for the first time since Q4 2009. The annual 
                  GDP growth declined by 1.3% in Q3 mainly reflecting the 
               impact of the summer drought on agricultural output. Overall 
                GDP growth for 2012 is expected at 0.4%. The negative signs 
                can be attributed more to external (global) demand factors. 
 
             The Current Account Deficit ("CAD") widened further in November, 
                 bringing the 12-month rolling CAD at 8.3% of GDP compared 
                 with 6.2% at the end of 2011 due to a sharp deterioration 
                in the terms of trade driven by weaker trade activity with 
               Russia and EU (representing 50% of exports, weaker commodity 
                 prices (steel price fell by 25%, which represents 30% of 
                 exports) and eroding competitiveness. Private consumption 
                  remained in positive territory, posting a growth of 12% 
                yoy in Q3 supported by the initiation of populist measures 
               by the government in May, ahead of the Q4 2012 parliamentary 
                  elections with real wages posting a double-digit growth 
               rate of 14% yoy in Q3 2012. On the other end of the spectrum, 
                private investment growth turned negative in Q3 2012 (-2.9% 
               y-o-y, following eight successive quarters of strong growth), 
                  reflecting the completion of the Euro-2012 construction 
                                         projects. 
 
               In November's parliamentary elections, President Yanukovich's 
             Party of Regions did not perform as well as was widely expected, 
                 even though it is still holding a majority with the help 
             of the Communist Party. However, this moderate outcome influences 
               the authorities' willingness to address a hefty twin deficits 
                problem, scheduled IMF repayments and declining FX reserves 
               (putting UAH under pressure despite the Ukrainian authorities 
                effort of buying time throughout 2012 by rolling over loans 
                 to Russia, limiting gas imports and issuing debt in USD). 
 
                 Even in the case that Ukraine makes a new agreement with 
              the IMF, most of the IMF funding will be used for the rollover 
                 of the current outstanding payments, making it imperative 
               for Ukraine to be able to access the markets. Another option 
                 for funding is Russia, but this will mean a step further 
                                     away from the EU. 
 
                                       4.2. Romania 
                The election victory of the Social Liberal Union (USL) was 
                  affirmed through a vote of confidence in late-December. 
               Immediately afterwards the IMF mission returned to Bucharest 
                  for the conclusion of the seventh and eighth reviews of 
                 Romania's precautionary agreement, mainly focused on the 
               preparation of 2013 budget and identification of the measures 
                  required to reduce the fiscal deficit to 1.8% of GDP as 
                  well as the implementation of the substantially delayed 
                structural reforms (especially in state-owned enterprises). 
 
               The Romanian economy contracted by 0.6% yoy (down 0.5% q-o-q) 
                in Q3 2012, following six consecutive quarters of positive 
                  annual growth, having been mainly affected by the lower 
                 agricultural output due to summer drought as well as the 
                 political uncertainty before the 2012 elections. Overall, 
                  Romania's economy growth for 2012 is estimated at circa 
                                           0.2%. 
 
                 In terms of the main GDP components, private consumption 
             contracted by 1.5%yoy in Q3 (down from +1.8%yoy in Q2) influenced 
                by lower real wages (despite public wages hikes) and higher 
               food and energy prices. In the same vein, exports and imports 
                contracted by 4.2% yoy and 1.9% yoy in Q3 compared to +0.7% 
              yoy and +0.2% yoy in Q2 respectively. In addition, investments 
               decelerated to +9.9% yoy, down from +15.2% yoy in Q2, backed 
                  by the decline of public investment in the construction 
                sector due to the underperformance in EU funds absorption. 
                The EU funds absorption rate has reached a mere 8% against 
                an ambitious government target of 19%. Funds earmarked for 
                investments in the budget were cut in order to finance the 
                public wages hikes as part of the budget revision in 2012. 
 
                 In December 2012, headline inflation rose to 5% yoy from 
                 4.6% in November, above National Bank of Romania's (NBR) 
                 target range of 3+1%, influenced by the hike in regulated 
                electricity price and higher food prices. The depreciation 
                  of the RON against EUR by 5% in 2012 (adjusting for the 
                 latter, end-year inflation is estimated at 3.5%) is also 
                 having a negative effect on the economic climate although 
                 at year end the trend has partially reversed. Despite the 
                 high headline inflation, the NBR Board left the monetary 
                policy rate unchanged at a record low of 5.25% for a ninth 
                  consecutive month, at its first meeting in 2013, due to 
                                  weak economic activity. 
 
               The positive news came from international debt markets where 
                 Romania over performed by selling EUR 2.25bn and $2.25bn 
                 of debt in 2012. In addition, in local markets, following 
             the well received election result, interest for two post-election 
               debt issuances was significantly higher, leading to a slight 
                decrease in yields at an average yield of 6.57% from 6.66% 
                             and an oversubscription of both. 
 
 
                                       4.3. Bulgaria 
            The Bulgarian economy grew at a steady pace in Q3-2012, 
            at 0.5% yoy, the same as in Q2 2012, indicating overall 
           GDP growth for 2012 at 0.6%. On the positive side, several 
        important indicators outperformed during Q3 showing encouraging 
         signs for the Bulgarian economy. But the economy faces greater 
           risk in 2013, following the resignation of the government 
               in February and the fact that elections are ahead. 
 
        Consumption has exceeded expectations for the second consecutive 
          quarter, staying at +3% yoy in Q3 (+3.2% yoy in Q2), driven 
            by relatively high real wages (+5.7% yoy in Q3) and the 
         seasonal improvement in labour market conditions (unemployment 
           improved to 11.5% in Q3, down from 12.3% in Q2 and a peak 
                of 12.9% in Q1, the highest level in 2009-2012). 
 
            Investments moved into positive territory for the first 
            time since Q4-2008, rising by 1% yoy in Q3 compared to a 
            contraction of 2.1% yoy in Q2, 5.4% yoy in Q1 and 10.4% 
            yoy in Q4 2011. Investment's share to GDP had dropped to 
           23% in 2011 against a record high at 37% in 2008. The main 
           driver behind investment growth was the higher absorption 
           rate of EU funds while the post-crisis drop in investments 
            is largely explained by the decline of FDI inflows (from 
                     EUR9 bn in 2007 to EUR1.4bn in 2011). 
 
            After reducing the budget deficit down to 2.1% of GDP in 
           2011, Bulgaria was the first country to exit the excessive 
           deficit process. Fiscal metrics have continued to improve 
            in 2012 and the fiscal deficit is currently on track to 
        narrow to 0.9% of GDP. This would be better than the government 
            had planned (2012 deficit target was set at 1.3% of GDP) 
            and would imply a sizeable underlying fiscal tightening 
            of 1.2% of GDP. For 2013, the government plans to pause 
         its fiscal consolidation efforts (budget will target a deficit 
                             of 1.35% of the GDP). 
 
            Current Account reversed to a deficit of 0.1% of GDP in 
         January-October 2012 against a 1.9% surplus in January-October 
           2011 mainly due to the deterioration in the trade deficit. 
         The trade deficit doubled, from 3.8% of GDP in January-October 
           2011, to 7.8% of GDP in January-October 2012. On the other 
           hand, the surplus of services improved marginally to 6.1% 
         of GDP in January-October 2012 against 5.8% in January-October 
        2011, current transfers improved to 4.1% of GDP January-October 
            2012, compared to 3.7% a year ago and the income deficit 
            improved to 2.5% of GDP in January-October 2012 against 
           3.7% at the same period a year ago, however without being 
            enough to counterbalance the deterioration of the trade 
           balance. Headline inflation has resumed its upward trend, 
         reaching 4.2% yoy in December against 3.9% in November mainly 
                 due to a surge in food and electricity prices. 
 

5. Real Estate Market Developments

5.1. Ukraine

 
    During 2012, prime yields in Ukraine remained high compared 
    to other European countries even though a slight compression 
    was recorded, especially in the first semester of the year. 
 At the end of 2012, rents for prime warehouse space in the 
  Greater Kyiv area stood at $5.5-6.5/sqm/month (net of VAT 
  and operating expenses) topped by $0.5-1/sq m/month of expenses. 
  In addition, vacancy rates for prime warehouse space decreased 
  further to below 8% due to limited new supply and steady 
  demand. The healthy leasing activity of retail operators 
  combined with the positive indicators of the logistics market 
  present the first signs of market recovery. 
    Activity in the office market during 2012 was mainly based 
     on relocations to larger premises or better located and/or 
      higher quality buildings. The main source of demand was 
      from manufacturing, IT and business services companies. 
    Due to gradually picking up of new office supply, occupancy 
      rate decreased by around 2% during the year. Despite the 
  increasing new supply, Kyiv office market remains undersupplied 
           compared to the markets in other CEE capitals. 
 Local anchors continued to lead the Ukrainian retail market 
  while new international retailers continued to enter the 
  market primarily at major new schemes such as "Ocean Plaza", 
  the first superregional shopping center. The strengthening 
  confidence of developers and investors in the market has 
  the potential lead to a significant increase in new delivery 
  in the sector, which remains fundamentally undersupplied, 
  with the vacancy rate for quality retail spaces below 2.5%. 
 
  5.2. Romania 
 
 
 The overall investment volume in 2012 was limited as both 
  the local and international political and economical uncertainties 
  made most potential investors adopt a wait and see approach. 
  However, there are a number of medium size investors active 
  in the market and looking to take advantage of the opportunistic 
  nature of the market. In Q3 2012 the total investment volume 
  transacted was EUR140.2m, representing a 183% increase against 
  the same period of previous year. 
      The main driver of Romanian logistics market remained the 
      build-to-suit schemes with other types of development being 
        really scarce. Despite the fact that take-up dropped in 
      2012 compared with 2011, when it reached the highest level 
    tracked since 2008, it still outweighs the new supply resulting 
       in rental and vacancy rates being maintained at the same 
            levels of $4-5/sqm/month and 10% respectively. 
       The volume of net transactional activity remained at the 
   same level as in 2011, at 180,000 sqm dominated by the Technology 
        & Communication sector (56% of net take-up volume). The 
        prime rent remains unchanged from the previous quarter, 
    situated at EUR 18.5-19/sqm/month for CBD buildings. Meanwhile, 
    the average vacancy in Bucharest is at 14.5-15.5%, registering 
    a slight increase from last year mainly driven by the addition 
       of new supply to the total existing stock of office space 
                             in Bucharest. 
      The increased interest of international retailers to enter 
     or expand their share in the Romanian retail market continued 
      in the last quarter of 2012. As the supply of new shopping 
     centers was limited, the increased demand is mainly absorbed 
        by existing centers, which offered important incentives 
   in order to renew their tenant mix, with well known international 
       brands as H&M, C&A, Deichman, New Yorker, Inditex group, 
     in an effort to improve their results. Prime rent and vacancy 
  rate remained stable at EUR 60-70/sqm/month and 9-10% respectively. 
 

5.3. Bulgaria

 
 The level of activity in the Bulgarian property market remained 
  sluggish during the 2012 with no significant investment 
  deals. The main reasons for this were the lack of financing 
  and liquidity, as well as the general economic and political 
  problems in the eurozone. 
 As in Romania, the new supply in the logistics market in 
  Bulgaria was dominated by owner-occupied and built-to-suit 
  schemes. Notably though the limited new supply in combination 
  with the shortage of available modern logistics space lead 
  to a further decrease of vacancy rate to 5.2% compared to 
  5.5% in Q3 and 6.4% in Q2, as demand picked up supported 
  by automotive and electronics supply chains, which move 
  to the Eastern Europe in search of cost savings and operational 
  flexibility. 
     The activity in the Bulgarian office market continued to 
   increase, however the volume of absorbed office space matches 
      the new office supply. In that vein, prime office rents 
    remained stable with only the annual indexation influencing 
   their levels, while prime quality office buildings gradually 
    increased their occupancy level. The top 10 grade A office 
        projects on the market recorded over 82% occupancy. 
     During the last quarter of the year no major new retail 
     projects were put into operation despite the fact that a 
      substantial volume was scheduled to do so, bringing the 
   stock ratio to only 90 sq m per 1,000 people putting Bulgaria 
  at 31(st) place among 35 European countries, where the average 
   figure is 250 sqm GLA per 1,000 residents. The total shopping 
     mall space under construction for 2013 is 206,500 sqm of 
                               GLA. 
 

6. Property Assets

6.1. Aisi Brovary - Terminal Brovary Logistic Park (Kyiv)

 
  The Brovary Logistic Park consists of a 49,180 sqm GLA Class 
    A warehouse and associated office space. The building has 
     large facades to Brovary ring road, at the intersection 
     of Brovary ( -95/ -01 highway), and Boryspil ring road. 
     It is located 10 km from Kyiv city border and 5 km from 
                 Borispol international airport. 
 
   The building is divided into six independent sections (each 
     at least 6,400 sq m), with internal clear ceiling of 12m 
   height and industrial flooring constructed with anti - dust 
   overlay quartz finish. The terminal accommodates 90 parking 
     spaces for cars and trucks, as well as 24 hour security 
   and municipal provided sewage, water and garbage collection. 
 As of the end of 2012, the building is 84% leased, reflecting 
  a 91% lease of its warehouse capacity. The majority of the 
  leases, which have been entered into with large, multinational 
  corporate tenants, have a three to five year duration. 
 
 

6.2. Aisi Bela - Bela Logistic Center (Odessa)

 
 The site consists of a 22.4 ha plot of land with zoning 
  allowance to construct industrial properties of up to 103,000 
  sq m GBA, is situated on the main Kyiv - Odessa highway, 
  20km from Odessa port and in an area of high demand for 
  logistics and distribution warehousing. 
 
 Following the completion of planning and issuance of permits 
  in 2008, construction commenced with column foundation and 
  peripheral walls for 100,000 sqm being completed in 2009. 
  Development was then put on hold due to lack of funding 
  and deteriorating market conditions. During 2012 discussions 
  were held with a potential buyer who wanted to acquire the 
  site and continue the development. Such negotiations which 
  continued for a few months broke down after the summer when 
  the election period started. 
 
 

6.3. Kiyanovsky Lane - Land for Residential Complex

 
 The project consists of 0.55 ha of land located at Kiyanovsky 
  Lane, near Kyiv city centre. It is destined for the development 
  of business to luxury residences with beautiful protected 
  views overlooking the scenic Dnipro River, St. Michaels's 
  Spires and historic Podil. 
 
 
  The concept design of the project is under review with 
  proposed development to include circa 100 residential apartments 
  with office and retail space on the lower floors (GBA of 
  circa 21,000 sqm) and 100 parking spaces across two levels 
  of basement. 
 

6.4. Tsymlyanski Lane - Land for Residential Complex

 
   The 0.36 ha plot, is located in the historic and rapidly 
    developing Podil District in Kyiv. The Company owns 55% 
   of the plot, with one local co-owner owning the remaining 
                              45%. 
 In 2009, all necessary documents were submitted to relevant 
  authorities for approval and the issuance of a construction 
  permit. The plan was to develop circa 10,000 sq m GBA of 
  40 high end residential units and office spaces on lower 
  floors, as well as 41 parking spaces in three underground 
  levels. Since then, the project has been frozen. The Company 
  is evaluating the options of going forward, which include 
  inter alia an outright sale as well as a contribution in 
  kind to a larger development. 
 

6.5. Balabino-Land for Retail/Entertainment Development

 
    The site, consisting of 26.38 ha land is situated on the 
  south entrance of the city, 3 km away from the administrative 
     border of Zaporozhye. It borders the Kharkov-Simferopol 
     Highway (which connects eastern Ukraine and Crimea and 
    runs through the two largest residential districts of the 
    city) as well as another major artery accessing the city 
                             centre. 
 The site is zoned for retail and entertainment and various 
  development options are being evaluated as per the market's 
  needs. During 2012 the Company has been in discussions 
  to sell part of the plot (circa 1 ha) to third parties 
  but such sale has been postponed following a request of 
  the prospective buyers.

Companies which do not distribute 70% of their profits after tax, as defined by the relevant tax law, within two years after the end of the relevant tax year, will be deemed to have distributed as dividends 70% of these profits. Special contribution for defence at 20% will be payable on such deemed dividends to the extent that the shareholders (companies and individuals) are Cyprus tax residents. The amount of deemed distribution is reduced by any actual dividends paid out of the profits of the relevant year at any time. This special contribution for defence is payable on account of the shareholders.

Accounts payable written off represent the total amount of creditors' payables written off as a result of negotiations and settlement during the reorganization of the Group that started in August 2011.

Provision for advance payments reflects an allowance estimate made by the Management. The Group has advanced US$12 mil. in 2007 as a loan to a company who would sell its Podol property asset to the Group, taking as collateral an asset of 42ha at Kiev Oblast-Rozny (Kiev Oblast property). As Management estimated already from August 2008 that the deal has limited probability to be effected, it has reduced the amount of the advance throughout the years currently standing at US$5.000.000.

Provision for prepayments and other current assets impairment represent difference between allowances for prepayments and other current assets estimated previously by the Management and the amounts which have been finally settled.

Impairment loss for VAT recoverable in 2012 represents the non- recoverable VAT in Terminal Brovary LLC. Impairment loss for VAT recoverable in 2011 relates to VAT receivable by Aisi Bela LLC, fully written off as of 31/12/2011 due to loss of corporate tax status of "VAT payer" in July 2011.

Penalties incurred by the Group were mainly caused as a result of delayed payments of its liabilities.

The Group has made an advance payment of US$12mil. (representing principal plus interest) for the acquisition of a project in Podol (Kiev) in 2007. As of the end of the reporting period the Management does not expect such acquisition to proceed while the seller has already defaulted on his credit to the Group.

As a consequence, the Group has commenced legal proceedings for the transfer of the collateral (land plot of 42 ha in Kiev Oblast) in the Group's name as well legal proceeding against the company which collected the original $12mil. payment.

The above option schemes were approved by the shareholders of the Company in General Meeting on 31 March 2008. As of the reporting date the Company has reversed the reserved equity (from past periods) for the share options in the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2011 in the amount of US$68.390 as the options are well out of the money.

9.3 Warrants issued

On 8 August 2011 the Company has issued an amount of 1.587.425 Class B Warrants to Narrowpeak Consultants Ltd , Besik Sikharulidze and Nugzar Kachukhasvili (for an aggregate equivalent to 12,5% of the issued share capital of the Company). Each Class B Warrant entitles the holder to receive one Ordinary Share. The Class B Warrants may be exercised at any time until the third anniversary of the issuance date of the Class B Warrant Instrument. The exercise price of the Class B Warrants will be the nominal value per Ordinary Share as at the date of exercise. The Class B Warrant Instruments have anti-dilution protection so that, in the event of further share issuances by the Company, the number of Ordinary Shares to which the holder of a Class B Warrant is entitled will be adjusted so that he receives the same percentage of the issued share capital of the Company (as nearly as practicable), as would have been the case had the issuances not occurred. This anti-dilution protection will lapse on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Class B Warrants; and (ii) capital increase(s) undertaken by the Company generating cumulative gross proceeds in excess of US$100.000.000.

10.1 Current borrowings

10.1.1 EBRD

Following the restructuring of the EBRD loan for the construction of Terminal Brovary in June 2011 and the lapse of the relevant grace period on the principal repayments in September 2012 the Company commenced discussions with EBRD in an effort to restructure the loan repayment plan so as to match the cash inflows with the principal and interest payments as well as the company's operational expenses. As at the end of the reporting period and although the interest is paid quarterly the cash generated by the project is not sufficient to cover the principal instalments. Discussions with EBRD, are ongoing. The loan bears interest of 6,75% over LIBOR and is repayable in 33 equal instalments.

The collaterals accompanying the loan are as follows :

   1.   LLC Terminal Brovary pledged all movable property with the carrying value more than US$25.000. 

2. LLC Terminal Brovary pledged its Investment property, Brovary Logistics Centre that was finished construction in 2010 (Note 8), and all property rights on the centre.

a. Following an Event of Default (as described in the Agreement) EBRD shall have the right (Call option) to purchase at the Call Price from LLC Aisi Brovary, 20% of the Participatory Interest held by LLC Aisi Brovary on the relevant Settlement Date,

b. EBRD shall have the right (Put Option), exercisable in its sole discretion, to sell to LLC Aisi Brovary all but not less than all of the Participatory Interest in the Charter Capital of LLC Terminal Brovary held by EBRD on the relevant Settlement Date at the Put Price.

8. LLC Terminal Brovary has granted EBRD a second ranking mortgage in relation to its own and LLC Aisi Brovary's obligations under the call and put option agreement.

Also the Company issued the corporate guarantee dated 12 January 2009 to guarantee all liabilities and fulfilment of conditions under the loan agreement signed with EBRD. The maturity of the guarantee is equal to the maturity of the loan.

The credit agreement with EBRD includes among others the following requirements for LLC Terminal Brovary and the Group as a whole:

1. Consolidated total liabilities to audited equity of the Company, adjusted for deferred tax and independent valuation, should not exceed 60% over the life of SECURE PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT & INVESTMENT PLC Guarantee.

The fair values of trade and other payables due within one year approximate to their carrying amounts as presented above.

Guarantee reserve on construction works, represents the portion of the guaranteed amount payable to the contractor of Brovary Logistic Park upon finalization of the works and of the snagging list.

Payables for construction represent amounts payable to the contractor of Bella Logistic Center in Odessa. The settlement was reached in late 2011 on the basis of maintaining the construction contract in an inactive state (to be reactivated at the option of the Group), while upon reactivation of the contract or termination of it (because of the sale of the asset) the Group would have to pay an additional UAH5.400.000 (US$700.000) payable upon such event occurring. Since it is uncertain when the latter amount is to be paid it has been discounted at the current discount rates in Ukraine and is presented as a non current liability.

Payables for services represent amounts payable to various service providers including auditors, legal advisors, consultants and third party accountants.

Provision for reimbursements represents the Group's liability towards UVK, a company that was to become the first tenant of Brovary Logistic Park. Following a settlement with UVK the Group has agreed to pay US$1.000.000, US$ 700.000 of which have been paid during the reporting period.

Deferred income from tenants represents advances from tenants which will be used as future rental income & utilities charges.

12. Events after the end of the reporting period

   A.   EBRD loan restructuring 

In February 2013 and as the negotiations with EBRD were ongoing for the restructuring of the repayment of the loan, the Company repaid the first 2 principal instalments corresponding to September and December 2012 payments.

   B.   Short term borrowing 

Short term borrowing to the amount of US$175.000 contracted in December 2012 in order to partially cover the UVK settlement during December 2012 payment amounting to US$400.000. The facility has been repaid in January 2013.

   C.   Share Capital Increase 

Since the start of 2013 and pursuant to the Annual General Meeting of 26(th) November 2012, the Company has raised US$17.05 million from placing regular shares with new investors. This capital raise which follows the recapitalisation and restructuring of the Company in August 2011 and the successful completion of various stabilising initiatives during 2012 provides funding for the Company to commence its strategy for growth through the acquisition of income producing assets in Central and South Eastern Europe in order to build a more geographically diverse portfolio of income yielding assets, whilst maintaining its emphasis on efficient asset management to create and enhance value.

   D.   Cyprus current developments 

As the situation stands at the date of issuance of this report, the Cyprus banks bail-in will have no material effect on the Company's business. More specifically, the Company has evaluated the probable effect of the measures in relation to the levy on deposits and the restrictions on capital movement applied to Cyprus based financial institutions. The Company holds most (98%) of its liquidity with non-Cypriot owned banking institutions, partly in Cyprus and partly outside Cyprus. Liquidity used for operational reasons is held partly in Ukraine, with a non-Cypriot banking institution, and partly in Cyprus, predominately with a Cyprus bank, Laiki Bank. The latter is the only part of the Company's liquidity that, according to the decisions taken by the European and Cypriot authorities to date, is at any risk. The maximum impact of the current measures is US$135.000, or less than 1% of the Company's liquidity.

   E.   Repayment of intragroup loans 

The Company has proceeded in share capital increase effected on certain of its Ukrainian subsidiaries which in turn returned the funds back to the Cyprus financing SPV (AISI CAPITAL) in the form of loan repayment (loans have been provided throughout 2007-2012 period). The total loan amount repaid as of the issuing date of this report is US$ 25million including principal and interest payment. This repayment is expected to have a substantial positive material impact on the tax position of the Company going forward.
