   2012 Novethic Ranking: Altarea Cogedim ranks among the top three property
investors and developers, winning recognition for its Sustainable Development
                                   approach

Novethic, a subsidiary of the Caisse des Dépôts, in partnership with the ADEME
(French Environment and Energy Management Agency) has just released its 2012
ranking of environmental performance reporting for buildings.

For the fifth consecutive year, this study measures the quality of
environmental performance reporting for buildings. It assesses public
information provided by principal listed property investors and developers
regarding the energy and CO2 performance of the real estate assets they produce
and own.

Altarea Cogedim stood out in this ranking: the Group made significant gains,
tying for first place among property investors with a score of 78% (compared to
64% in 2011). Altarea Cogedim also asserted its standing among the foremost
developers, coming in 2nd with 67% (compared to 54% in 2011).

"This ranking attests to the substantive work we have carried out in terms of
sustainable development for our property investment and development activities.
The results support the Altagreen progress-based approach implemented three
years ago. This approach is the product of a cross-business enterprise among
the Sustainable Development Department, its internal representatives and the
operational teams. 2011 also marked a new phase for the group, with a review of
its main non-financial indicators by an international audit firm," declared
Alain Taravella, Chairman and Founder of Altarea Cogedim.
