<strong>Commerz</strong> <strong>Real</strong> Estate Master FCP – SIF<br />

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS<br />

AS AT DECEMBER 31, 2009<br />

25. Events after the balance sheet date<br />

As described in Note 19 Espacio León breached one of the covenants agreed upon in the loan agreement with Eurohypo<br />

AG. In order to remediate this covenant breach the existing shareholder loan (SHL) between <strong>CG</strong>M Lux 3 S.à r.l. and<br />

Espacio León Propco S.L. has been converted into a profit participation loan (PPL) and the amount of the loan has been<br />

increased by € 4 Mio which ensures that the required equity ratio of 25% is restored. Management has informed the<br />

lender about this conversion and has obtained written approval as at April 9, 2010 for the actions taken and confirmation<br />

that the covenant breach is regarded as solved.<br />

The conversion of the SHL into a PPL, which classifies as equity according to Spanish law, was initiated in light of<br />

the fact that the coverage of Royal Decree Law 10/2008 was meant to expire on December 31, 2010 and the restorage<br />

of 50% equity would have been mandatory. As mentioned in Note 19 by virtue of the Decree Law 5/2010 of March<br />

31, 2010 (published on April 1, 2010) the stipulations of Sole Additional Provision of Royal Decree 10/2008 are also<br />

applicable to fiscal years 2010 and 2011. However Management has decided to still perform the conversion in order to<br />

stabilize the overall economic situation of Espacio León. The SHL has been converted into a PPL based on an amendment<br />

agreement dated April 7, 2010.
