AFI DEVELOPMENT AGREES TO SELL
THE REMAINING BUILDING AT AQUAMARINE III

(CLASS 2 TRANSACTION NOTIFICATION)

London, 23 April 2019 - AFI Development Plc announces that it has agreed to sell Building 3 at the completed Aquamarine III Business Centre in Moscow to a leading Russian bank (the 'Buyer') for a total cash consideration of RUR4.45 billion (circa US$69.5 million), net of the applicable Russian VAT.

The transaction comprises the sale of office premises, underground parking and a share of commonly owned service areas at the Aquamarine (Ozerkovskaya) III Business Centre at 22-24, Ozerkovskaya embankment, Moscow, Russia. The transaction consists of two Russian law governed agreements: a sales-purchase agreement related to 18,758.6 sq.m of gross buildable area (including 199 underground parking units) and a sale-purchase agreement related to a circa 27% share in the title to the premises of 3,728.6 sq.m of gross buildable area ('the Transaction agreements').

The Aquamarine (Ozerkovskaya) III Business Centre is an office complex forming part of the 'Aquamarine' mixed-use development, located on the Ozerkovskaya embankment in the historical Zamoskvorechie district of Moscow. The development includes four Class A buildings with shared underground parking. In 2013, AFI Development disposed of Building 1, while in 2017 it disposed of Buildings 2 and 4. Following the disposal of the three buildings, the Business Centre has 18,758.6 sq.m of gross buildable area and 199 parking units.

The transaction consideration shall be satisfied in two tranches: 50% of the consideration is to be paid upon execution of the Transaction agreements, with the remaining 50% due once the Buyer has been registered as owner, in accordance with Russian law.

The value of the gross assets subject to the transaction is US$57.4 million, as recorded in the consolidated IFRS accounts of the Company.

The disposed property is leased to a number of office tenants. Based on the 2018 preliminary annual financial results, the property contributed US$2.4 million to the gross profit and negative US$10.6 million to the net profit in the consolidated financial statements of AFI Development.

The transaction will be subject to Russian profit tax estimated at RUR347 million (circa US$2.3 million on the consolidated level net of deferred tax liability). As a result of the transaction on the consolidated IFRS accounts, the Company expects to incur a net profit of about US$8.1 million. After the disposal, the Company will no longer pay property tax on the property, which amounted to RUR48 million (circa US$750 thousand) in 2018.

The Company intends to use net proceeds of the sale to partially repay external loans (to Bank VTB PJSC) and to finance construction of its development projects.
