Invista European Real Estate Trust SICAF (the ‘‘Company’’)<br />

We report on the financial information set out on pages 82 to 98. This financial information has been<br />

prepared for inclusion in the prospectus dated 24 November 2006 of Invista European Real Estate<br />

Trust SICAF (the ‘‘Prospectus’’) on the basis of the accounting policies set out in Part I of the<br />

Prospectus. This report is required by paragraph 20.1 of Annex I of The Commission Regulation 809/<br />

2004/EC of 29 April 2004 implementing Directive 2003/71/EC (the ‘‘Prospectus Directive Regulation’’)<br />

and is given for the purpose of complying with that paragraph and for no other purpose.<br />

Responsibilities<br />

The Directors of the Company are responsible for preparing the financial information on the basis of<br />

preparation set out in note 2.1 to the financial information.<br />

It is our responsibility to form an opinion on the financial information and to report our opinion to<br />

you.<br />

Save for any responsibility imposed by law or regulation to any person as and to the extent there<br />

provided to the fullest extent permitted by law we do not assume any responsibility and will not<br />

accept any liability to any other person for any loss suffered by any such other person as a result of,<br />

arising out of, or in accordance with this report or our statement, required by and given solely for<br />

the purposes of complying with paragraph 23.1 of Annex I of the Prospectus Directive Regulation,<br />

consenting to its inclusion in the Prospectus.<br />

Basis of opinion<br />

We conducted our work in accordance with Standards for Investment Reporting issued by the<br />

Auditing Practices Board in the United Kingdom. Our work included an assessment of evidence<br />

relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial information. It also included an assessment of<br />

the significant estimates and judgments made by those responsible for the preparation of the financial<br />

information and whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the entity’s circumstances,<br />

consistently applied and adequately disclosed.<br />

We planned and performed our work so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we<br />

considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that<br />

the financial information is free from material misstatement whether caused by fraud or other<br />

irregularity or error.<br />

Opinion<br />

In our opinion, the financial information gives, for the purposes of the Prospectus, a true and fair<br />

view of the state of affairs of Invista European Real Estate Trust SICAF as at the date stated and of<br />

its profits, cash flows and changes in equity for the period then ended in accordance with the basis of<br />

preparation set out in note 2.1.<br />

Yours faithfully<br />
