Chairman and Executive Director's Combined Statement
During the third quarter 2012 the Company improved its operational efficiency, as evidenced by increased gross profit. Our performance during 2012 demonstrates steady growth of revenues (quarter-on-quarter), while our strong cost discipline has allowed us further decrease our expenses. Higher profitability is driven by increasing revenue from yielding properties, improved collections of rent and greater control over operational expenses.
Projects update
AFIMALL City
The marketing efforts at AFIMALL City have started to bring positive results in terms of increasing footfall and growing consumer awareness. The construction works at the parking facilities are progressing according to our plans. In addition to the 1,279 spaces, which were operational as of today, the remaining parking spaces are expected to be constructed by the end of the year.
On 22 November, AFI Development announced that its subsidiary, Bellgate Construction Limited ("Bellgate"), had reached an agreement with VTB Bank OJSC ("VTB Bank") on the disposal of parking space in the underground parking at AFIMALL City.
The transaction is structured in two stages. The first stage will entail a sale-purchase transaction between Bellgate and VTB Bank on 21,354 sq.m. of parking space. During the second stage 9,247 sq.m. owned (at completion) by VTB Bank will be exchanged for 7,847 sq. m. owned by Bellgate. The exchange transaction is to be completed no later than three years from the execution date of the sale-purchase transaction. The resulting estimated total net cash flow for AFI Development is US$54.5 million.
The consideration for the sale-purchase transaction is US$57.1 million (excluding Russian VAT). The consideration for the exchange transaction, to be paid by Bellgate to VTB Bank, is US$2.6 million (excluding Russian VAT). All payments are to be made in Russian rouble. VTB Bank will be able to start using the parking space once the construction is fully completed by Bellgate. The parties estimate the eventual number of parking spaces transacted at 643.
Changes at the Board of Directors
On 22 November 2012, the Board of Directors of AFI Development following the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, appointed Mr Lev Leviev, currently Non-Executive Director and Chairman, to the position of Executive Chairman of the Company.

Independent auditors' report on review of condensed consolidated interim financial information tothe members of AFI DEVELOPMENT PLC
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position of AFI Development PLC as at 30 September 2012 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes (interim financial information). The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".

The carrying amount of investment property is the fair value of the property as determined by a registered independent appraiser having an appropriate recognised professional qualification and recent experience in the location and category of the property being valued. Fair values were determined having regard to recent market transactions for similar properties in the same location as the Group's investment property. The same applies for investment property under development in note 10 below. The last valuation took place on 30 June 2012.
The transfer from investment property under development represents projects Tverskaya Plaza Ib and II which were reclassified on 30 June 2012 (see note 10 below for more information).
The increase due to the effect of the foreign exchange rates is a result of the strengthening of the Rouble compared to the US Dollar by 4% during first nine months of 2012. The fair value adjustment loss in the third quarter is a result of the rubble appreciation.

The valuation loss on investment properties under development reflects a decrease in the value of the Company's four projects, which are classified as investment property under development - Pochtovaya, Kossinskaya, Tverskaya Plaza Ib and Tverskaya Plaza II. The projects were valued by the independent appraiser on 30 June 2012. The valuation loss results from changes in master planning and development policies of the Moscow government. The Company received information/confirmation of these changes and made revisions in its relevant projects during the period June - August 2012. The valuations of Tverskaya Plaza Ic, Tverskaya Plaza IIa and Tverskaya Plaza IV, the three projects forming part of the non-binding agreement with the Moscow government, remain unchanged and the Company is progressing in securing development rights and leasehold rights to respective land plots.
On 30 June 2012, further to their revaluation projects Tverskaya Plaza Ib and II, were transferred to Investment Property based on the fact that the Company was notified by Moscow City authorities that any development of these two plazas cannot exceed the parameters of the existing buildings. As a result the company has cancelled its plans of redevelopment of the two plazas but will retain and manage the current buildings at their existing condition.
The increase due to the effect of the foreign exchange rates is a result of the Rouble strengthening compared to the US Dollar by 4% during first nine months of 2012. . The fair value adjustment loss in the third quarter is a result of the rubble appreciation.

12. INVENTORY OF REAL ESTATE
On 31 December 2011, the Company reclassified its project "Botanic Gardens" from current assets "Trading properties under construction" to non-current assets as "Inventory of real estate", because the project was held for future development of residential complexes which were not expected to be constructed within the Company's 3-year operating cycle.
The impairment of the inventory of real estate reflects the Company's decision to write-off its Botanic Garden project. A subsidiary of the Company is a "co-investor" in the project together with a company fully owned by the City of Moscow, which is the main investor and beneficiary of land lease rights for Botanic Garden project. A claim filed with a Moscow court on 2 August 2012 by a third party creditor is seeking to declare the main investor bankrupt, while its assets were previously arrested for the benefit of the same creditor. The Company considers, based on opinion of its legal advisers, that any recovery of the Company's costs relating to its investments in the project is unlikely. Given the current circumstances, the Company has decided to write-off its rights in the project from its books. Notwithstanding, the Company will continue its efforts to recover its costs and/or receive the development rights to the project.

Employee Share option plan (continued)
If a participant ceases to be employed his options will normally lapse subject to certain exceptions. In the event of a takeover, reorganisation or winding up vested options may be exercised or exchanged for new equivalent options where appropriate. Shares/GDRs issued under the plan will rank equally with all other shares at the time of issue. The Board of Directors may satisfy (with the consent of the participant) an option by paying the participant in cash or other assets the gain as an alternative of issuing and transferring the shares/GDRs. The Board of Directors may amend the rules of the plan at any time.

17. LOANS AND BORROWINGS (continued)
On 3 August 2012 a drawdown of the second tranche, of US$69,386 thousand (RUR 2,252 million), of the new loan facility dated 26 June 2012.
On 8 August 2012 the loan facility dated 17 August 2007 provided by Sberbank of Russia for Avtostoynka Tverskay Zastava project financing, was fully repaid in the amount US$71 million, comprised of US$70.6 million of principal debt and US$0.4 million of interest payment
This new loan facility agreement offers a credit line totalling RUR 21 billion, which can be drawn down in 5 tranches, each with a designated purpose: the majority of the funds are designated to refinance existing loans previously issued by VTB Bank (OJSC). The remaining funds are designated for the refinancing of construction costs related to the AFIMALL City parking and for the financing of the outstanding payments constituting part of the consideration for the acquisition of the parking.
The Company has discretion over the currency of each tranche, which can be drawn down either in US dollars or in Russian roubles. The loan facility has differentiated interest rates which are currency dependent: 9.5% for loans drawn down in Russian roubles and 3 months LIBOR plus 6.7% for loans drawn down in US dollars. The interest on the loans is payable on a quarterly basis, throughout the term of the credit line. Bellgate has undertaken to make equal quarterly payments of US$ 6.5 million, starting from 2014, on account of the principal of the loans, while it has been agreed that the remainder of the loan will mature in April 2018. The terms of the loan facility agreement are substantially similar to those of the loan facility agreement entered into in February 2012 with VTB Bank (OJSC) in relation to the financing of the acquisition of the AFIMALL City parking (for more information regarding the said loan facility, please see Annex A to Q1 2012 results announcement, published by the Company on 22 May 2012). However, certain conditions of the new loan facility will differ from the aforementioned loan, including the following:
a) The guarantee of AFI Development Plc over the obligations of Bellgate under the loan facility agreement will be in the amount of US$ 1 million, the nominal value of Bellgate's shares;
b) Additional mortgage over the premises of "Aquamarine" Hotel will be registered in favour of the Bank. This shall be removed in the case that Bellgate redeems US$20 million of principal;
c) Additional guarantee will be provided to the Bank by Semprex LLC, a Russian company which is an indirect subsidiary of AFI Development Plc, and owner of the "Aquamarine" Hotel. This shall be removed in the case that Bellgate redeems US$20 million of principal;
d) The turnover covenant has been changed from monthly bank accounts turnovers of not less than RUR 200 million to quarterly revenues (including VAT) exceeding agreed thresholds, determined as amounts gradually increasing from RUR 651 million for Q3 2012 to the amount of RUR 1,139 million for Q1 2018. The penalty for not meeting the covenant is changed from 1% additional interest for the next month to 0.5% additional interest for the next quarter.
The loan facility agreement contains other generally acceptable terms, such as the borrower undertaking to maintain the aggregate value of the pledged assets, securing the loan facility, providing the lender with periodic reporting and similar common conditions.

24. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (continued)
·; On 21 November 2012 AFI Development announced that its subsidiary, Bellgate Constructions Limited ("Bellgate"), reached an agreement with VTB Bank OJSC ("VTB Bank") on the disposal of parking space, part of the underground parking underneath AFIMALL City. The parties expect the transaction documents to be executed in the coming weeks. The transaction is structured in two stages: at the first stage Bellgate and VTB Bank enter into a sale- purchase transaction for 21,354 sq.m. of parking space. At the second stage the parties will make an exchange transaction, in which 9,247 sq.m. owned (at completion) by VTB Bank are exchanged for 7,847 sq. m. owned by Bellgate. The exchange transaction is to be completed no later than three years from execution date of the sale-purchase transaction. This two-tier transaction structure stems from the fact that part of the particular space that VTB Bank is interested to purchase is located on the land plot, to which Bellgate has not yet registered the leasehold rights. The consideration for the sale-purchase transaction is US$57,119 thousand (not including Russian VAT). The consideration for the exchange transaction, to be paid by Bellgate to VTB Bank, is US$ 2,627 thousand (not including Russian VAT). All payments are to be made in Russian Roubles. VTB Bank will be able to start using the parking space once the construction is fully completed by Bellgate.

·; On 22 November 2012, the Board of Directors approved the grant of share options to Mr Lev Leviev following his appointment as Executive Chairman.
