Rental income for Foncière des Murs is stable on a like-for-like basis on 31
March 2013.

Consolidated revenue stands at EUR44.6 million, up 0.8 % compared with 31 March
2012. The change in the consolidated revenue primarily results from:

  o Acquisition of 158 B&B hotels made in 2012 generating EUR4.2 million in
    rental income, Group Share
  o The positive impact of rental indexation representing EUR0.6 million,
    partially offset by the downturn in revenue of variable-rent hotels
    (-EUR0.5 million)
  o The impact of sales of hotel, healthcare and retail assets (-EUR3.8
    million).

This increase in rental income shows the resilience of the business model of
Foncière des Murs, French leader in premises holding and number one lessor of
two of the biggest hotel operators in France (Accor and B&B).

EUR134 million in asset sales and sales agreement, at a price 1.8% higher than
the appraisal values

EUR134 million in asset sales and sales agreement (including sales agreement
already signed as of 31 December 2012) have been made, at a price 1.8% higher
than the appraisal values for 2012. These disposals and sale agreements covered
35 assets, including:
  o 11 hotels for EUR66 million hotels. The selling strategy of Accor hotels is
    being continued, in both ways of premises selling for 6 assets and joint
    premises and business selling together with Accor for 5 assets.
  o 22 operating retail premises for EUR61 million. Theses sales of Qucik and
    Courtepaille premises have been made as single units and as part of
    portfolios, with various investors.
  o 2 retirement homes for EUR7 million

Outlook for 2013

Foncière des Murs confirms its objective to continue to benefit from the
development opportunities, by assisting its tenants in their development
activities, thus bolstering existing partnerships.
