MIRLAND DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION PLC ("MirLand"/the "Company")

UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF 31 MARCH 2008

MirLand Development Corporation, one of the leading international residential and commercial property developers in Russia, today announces its interim consolidated financial statements for the three months to 31 March 2008.

Since the announcement of our preliminary results the Company has continued to make good progress and is pleased to report the following:

Key Highlights

Profit before tax US$6.75 million (loss of US$280,000 in three months to 31 December 2007)

29% increase in total assets to US$674.2 million (31 December 2007: US$521.4 million)

Rental and property management revenues increased to US$4.5 million (US$1.5 million in three months to 31 December 2007) following additional progress in the refurbishment, expansion and letting of the Hydro and MAG office properties in Moscow and the Yarolslavl shopping centre, which was successfully opened in April 2007

The Company has entered into an agreement with the city of Penza having won the tender for the acquisition of circa 5.3 Ha of land for US$4.25 million

Plans towards developing a 25,000 sqm shopping centre on the site are being successfully progressed. Located in south east Russia, Penza has a population of over 500,000 and an undersupply of high quality retail facilities

The Saratov shopping centre premises have been substantially pre-let and the Company anticipates that it will open during 2009.

Nigel Wright, Chairman, commented:

"MirLand has demonstrated considerable success in the letting of its completed projects and continues to make strong progress on the growth of its development programme and advancement of its existing projects."
