Press release

Peach Property Group and NOVUM Hotel Group conclude20-year lease agreement:
former Hoesch headquarters in Dortmund will be transformed into a 4-star hotel
with 210 rooms

-Hotel with 210 rooms planned in historic building

-Lease agreement concluded with NOVUM Hotel Group for a 4-star hotel as "NOVUM
Select"

-Tenders for conversion work are underway

-Completion planned for the end of 2018

Zurich, 12 July 2016 - Peach Property Group, an investor specialising in
portfolio management in Germany with a focus on residential property and
selected development projects, has achieved further progress in transforming the
former Hoesch headquarters in Dortmund. Planning permission to convert the
historic building was obtained last year, and Peach has now concluded a 20-year
lease agreement with Hamburg-based NOVUM Hotel Group, which is enjoying dynamic
growth. The NOVUM Hotel Group will start operating the hotel with 210 rooms and
space of around 15,500 m2 (gross floor space) under the "NOVUM Select" brand in
spring 2019. The NOVUM Hotel Group currently holds 84 hotels in Germany and
other European countries. The hotel group already operates a "NOVUM Hotel
Unique" and a "NOVUM Hotel Excelsior" in Dortmund, and is thus well acquainted
with the local market.

The building is currently vacant, and will be converted into a 4-star hotel
while maintaining its historic, protected substance. The responsible authorities
already issued the requisite planning permission in 2015, and tenders for the
conversion work are currently running. It is planned to start the construction
work at the end of 2016 and to complete this by the end of 2018.

In addition to the hotel, the property has around 1,700 m2 of additional space
that is available for an alternative use. Peach Property Group is currently in
advanced-stage negotiations with an interested party for this space. Peach
Property Group is forecasting total annual rental income of around EUR 1.5
million for a fully let property. As it is possible to write down investments in
this building at an accelerated rate thanks toDenkmal AfA(deprecation for the
use of listed buildings), this property will earn attractive returns after
taxes.

The property enjoys a central location at Rheinische Straße 173 to the west of
Dortmund's city centre, and was built between 1916 and 1921. The listed building
has neoclassical architecture and a total rental area of around 17,200 m2 (gross
floor space) and is close to the "U" cultural centre in the up-and-coming
Unionviertel in Dortmund. This district will be extensively redeveloped in the
coming years.

Dr. Thomas Wolfensberger, Peach Property Group's CEO, commented: "We are very
pleased that we have been able to acquire a top-class, financially strong tenant
for this historic property in the form of the NOVUM Hotel Group. We have once
again proven our ability to manage complex real estate projects. We are now
entering into the next stage of realisation by concluding this lease and to
further developing the property."

David Etmenan, managing partner with NOVUM Hotel Group added: "We are very
pleased that we are expanding our portfolio of hotels by adding this very
special project, and that we will be able to offer our guests an exclusive
4-star NOVUM Select Hotel in Dortmund after its completion."
