  Affine has acquired an office building in Meudon from Bouygues Immobilier
                   (Green Office(r) en Seine project)

Affine has signed a purchase agreement with Bouygues Immobilier for the Green
Office(r) en Seine project, a 5,400 sqm office and retail building located in
Meudon (Hauts-de-Seine), in the inner suburbs of Paris. This turnkey project
witnesses Affine's investment policy aiming at rejuvenating its portfolio and
balance its developments between Paris Métropole and the other major French
tier 1 cities (Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon, Marseille, Nantes and Toulouse). It will
help restore rental income and maintain the Group's dividend distribution
policy. This real estate complex, which is currently being marketed to tenants,
should be commissioned at the end of 2017 and is expected to generate around
EUR2m in annual rental income.

This complex, which will be HQE certified (green label), includes two office
buildings with 3,800 sqm and 1,610 sqm across four levels (G+3), connected by a
walkway, totalling 4,940 sqm of office space, 500 sqm of retail space on the
ground floor and 113 underground parking lots. The building is located inside a
wider 16,000 sqm project developed around a pedestrian square which also
includes two residential buildings, a public car park of 60 lots, public
cultural and sports facilities and a 500 sqm terraced garden that runs along
rue Hélène Loiret. The architect Reichen et Robert & Associés is handling
the architectural design.

User comfort and well-being are key factors, including offices that prioritise
natural lighting (100% offices receive direct sunlight) and a 3 metre ceiling
height as well as a panoramic terrace accessible via the roof. Workspaces will
be modular so that they meet users' changing needs by offering the option of
sectioning off space every 1.35 m.

The Green Office(r) en Seine project is located in a business district area
that includes Boulogne, Issy-les- Moulineaux, Sèvres and Meudon bordering the
Seine river across from the Ile Seguin. This mixed-use area (residential and
office) offers a wide variety of public transportation options, with Tramway T2
lines, the 389 bus, the SNCF N train and the RER C, which enables users to
reach Porte de Versailles and La Défense in 13 and 19 minutes, respectively.
The building will also be located next to the future Grand Paris Express Pont
de Sèvres train station. It will also have access to several roads, including
the ring road of Paris (le périphérique) 4 km away and the Greater Paris
region motorway network (N118 2 km away and A13 4 km away).

Meudon has a thriving economy with more than 400 companies, including major
conglomerates and Gemalto and Global Mail as close neighbours.

Green Office(r) en Seine belongs to the latest generation of positive energy
buildings developed by Bouygues Immobilier and is part of a very ambitious
environmental strategy by aiming to obtain the BEPOS Effinergie Label and the
"exceptional HQE passport" environmental certification. Energy consumption will
be optimised by using high-performance equipment, by generating electricity
via 650 sqm of rooftop solar panels and through precise energy management.

The notaries representing the seller and buyer are respectively Maître Olivier
Herrnberger of GMH Notaires Group and Maître Olivier Trichet of Haussman
Notaires. The marketing is entrusted to Estate Consultant, Jones Lang Lasalle
and Cushman & Wakefield.
