by lending to AISI Realty Capital LLC as the SC Secure Capital Ltd was named then, the total amount of USD 450.000. As of

All loans from SC Secure Capital Ltd to the Group's subsidiaries are USD denominated and in 2016 they generated a foreign
exchange loss totaling E4.167.542 as a result of the devaluation of the Ukrainian Hryvnia during the reporting period. As
settlement of these loans is not likely to occur in the foreseeable future and in substance is part of the Group's net
investment in its foreign operations, the foreign exchange loss is recognised in other comprehensive income. 
 
In that context SC Secure Capital Ltd has provided a loan to Limited Liability Company "Terminal Brovary" whose outstanding
capital at the reporting date was E30.724.931. This loan was transferred to SL SECURE Logistics Limited by the end of 2016.
This loan is expected to be transferred together with the sale of Terminal Brovary to the buyer (Note 36a). 
 
A potential Ukrainian Hryvnia weakening/strengthening by 10% against the US dollar with all other variables held constant,
would result in an exchange difference on I/C loans to foreign holdings of (E3.090.182)/ E3.090.182 respectively, estimated
on balances held at 31 December 2016.

The loan was given to GreenLake Development SRL from Edetrio Holdings Limited. The agreement was signed on 17 February 2012
and bears interest 5%. The maturity date is 30 April 2018. 
 
33.    Contingent Liabilities 
 
33.1 Tax Litigation 
 
The Group performed during the reporting period a part of its operations in the Ukraine, within the jurisdiction of the
Ukrainian tax authorities. The Ukrainian tax system can be characterized by numerous taxes and frequently changing
legislation, which may be applied retroactively, open to wide and in some cases, conflicting interpretation. Instances of
inconsistent opinions between local, regional, and national tax authorities and between the National Bank of Ukraine and
the Ministry of Finance are not unusual. Tax declarations are subject to review and investigation by a number of
authorities, which are authorised by law to impose severe fines and penalties and interest charges. Any tax year remains
open for review by the tax authorities during the three subsequent calendar years; however, under certain circumstances a
tax year may remain open for longer. 
 
The Group performed during the reporting period part of its operations also in Romania, Greece and Bulgaria. In respect of
Romanian, Bulgarian and Greek taxation systems all are subject to varying interpretation and to constant changes, which may
be retroactive. In certain circumstances the tax authorities can be arbitrary in certain cases. 
 
These facts create tax risks which are substantially more significant than those typically found in countries with more
developed tax systems. Management believes that it has adequately provided for tax liabilities, based on its interpretation
of tax legislation, official pronouncements and court decisions. However, the interpretations of the relevant authorities
could differ and the effect on these consolidated financial statements, if the authorities were successful in enforcing
their interpretations, could be significant. 
 
At the same time the Group's entities are involved in court proceedings with tax authorities; Management believes that the
estimates provided within the financial statements present a reasonable estimate of the outcome of these court cases. 
 
33.2 Construction related litigation 
 
There are no material claims from contractors due to the postponement of projects or delayed delivery other than those
disclosed in the financial statements. 
 
33.3 Delia Lebada SRL debt towards Bank of Cyprus 
 
Sec South East Continent Unique Real Estate (SECURED) Investment Ltd has provided in 2007 a corporate guarantee to the Bank
of Cyprus in respect to the loan provided by the latter to its subsidiary Delia Lebada SRL, the owner of the Pantelimon
Lake plot (Note 12). As the loan is in default, the bank has initiated an insolvency procedure. Depending on the final
outcome of the procedure (that may include an auctioning of the plot), the Bank may call the difference between the price
received from the auction and E6.594.396 which is the total liability (out of which E4.569.725 is the principal and the
remaining relates to interest, overdues and penalties). The Group is in discussions with the bank and its partner in the
project to find an amicable settlement to the case. Management believes that the case has been adequately being provided
for. 
 
33.4 Other Litigation 
 
The Group has a number of legal cases pending. Management does not believe that the result of these will have a substantial
overall effect on the Group's financial position. Consequently no such provision is included in the current financial
statements. 
 
33.5 Other Contingent Liabilities 
 
The Group had no other contingent liabilities as at 31 December 2016. 
 
34.    Commitments 
 
The Group had no other commitments as at 31 December 2016. 
 
35.    Financial Risk Management 
 
35.1 Capital Risk Management 
 
The Group manages its capital to ensure adequate liquidity will being able to implement its stated growth strategy in order
to maximize the return to stakeholders through the optimization of the debt-equity structure and value enhancing actions in
respect of its portfolio of investments. The capital structure of the Group consists of borrowings (Note 24), trade and
other payables (Note 25) deposits from tenants (Note 26), financial leases (Note 28), taxes payable (Note 27) and equity
attributable to ordinary or preferred shareholders. The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital
requirements, but certain of its cash balances are restricted (Note 20). 
 
Management reviews the capital structure on an on-going basis. As part of the review Management considers the differential
capital costs in the debt and equity markets, the timing at which each investment project requires funding and the
operating requirements so as to proactively provide for capital either in the form of equity (issuance of shares to the
Group's shareholders) or in the form of debt. Management balances the capital structure of the Group with a view of
maximizing the shareholder's Return on Equity (ROE) while adhering to the operational requirements of the property assets
and exercising prudent judgment as to the extent of gearing.

35.3 Financial Risk Management Objectives 
 
The Group's Treasury function provides services to its various corporate entities, coordinates access to local and
international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group, mainly
the investing and development functions. Its primary goal is to secure the Group's liquidity and to minimize the effect of
the financial asset price variability on the cash flow of the Group. These risks cover market risks including foreign
exchange risks and interest rate risk as well as credit risk and liquidity risk. 
 
The above mentioned risk exposures may be hedged using derivative instruments whenever appropriate. The use of financial
derivatives is governed by the Group's approved policies which indicate that the use of derivatives is for hedging purposes
only. The Group does not enter into speculative derivative trading positions. The same policies provide for the investment
of excess liquidity. As at the end of the reporting period, the Group had not entered into any derivative contracts. 
 
35.4 Economic Market Risk Management 
 
The Group operates in Romania, Bulgaria, Greece and Ukraine. The Group's activities expose it primarily to financial risks
of changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates. The exposures and the management of the associated risks are
described below. There has been no change in the way the Group measures and manages risks. 
 
Foreign Exchange Risk 
 
Currency risk arises when commercial transactions and recognized financial assets and liabilities are denominated in a
currency that is not the Group's functional currency. Most of the Group's financial assets are denominated in the
functional currency. Management is monitoring the net exposures and adopts policies to contain them so that the net effect
of devaluation is minimized. 
 
Interest Rate Risk 
 
The Group's income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates as the Group
has no significant interest-bearing assets. On December 31st, 2016, cash and cash equivalent financial assets amounted to
E1.701.007 (2015: E895.422) of which approx. E32.000 in UAH and E1.320.000 in RON (Note 20) while the remaining are mainly
denominated in either USD or E. 
 
The Group is exposed to interest rate risk in relation to its borrowings amounting to E48.475.454 (31 December 2015:
E53.680.779) as they are issued at variable rates tied to the Libor or Euribor. Management monitors the interest rate
fluctuations on a continuous basis and evaluates hedging options to align the Group's strategy with the interest rate view
and the defined risk appetite. Although no hedging has been applied for the reporting period, such may take place in the
future if deemed necessary in order to protect the cash flow of a property asset through different interest rate cycles.

different interest rate cycles. 
 
As at 31 December 2016 the weighted average interest rate for all the interest bearing borrowing and financial leases of
the Group stands at 5,32% (31 December 2015: 5,00%). Considering the finalization of Terminal Brovary sale, the weighted
average interest rate for all the interest bearing borrowing and financial leases of the Group would be 4,67%.

35.5 Credit Risk Management 
 
The Group has no significant credit risk exposure. The credit risk emanating from the liquid funds is limited because the
Group's counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies. The Credit risk
of receivables is reduced as the majority of the receivables represent VAT to be offset through VAT income in the future.
In respect of receivables from tenants these are kept to a minimum of 2 months and are monitored closely. 
 
35.6 Liquidity Risk Management 
 
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which applies a framework for the
Group's short, medium and long term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Treasury function of the Group
manages liquidity risk by preparing and monitoring forecasted cash flow plans and budgets while maintaining adequate
reserves.  The following table details the Group's contractual maturity of its financial liabilities. The tables below have
been drawn up based on the undiscounted contractual maturities including interest that will be accrued.

35.7 Net Current Liabilities 
 
The current liabilities amounting to E41.080.081 exceed current assets amounting to E9.507.622 by E31.572.459. This
difference is primarily a result of: 
 
a)        the EBRD Terminal Brovary debt, amounting to E11.580.922 which is presented as a current liability due to the
breach of certain covenants should be viewed as under transfer upon completion of the sale of Terminal Brovary (Note 36a). 
 
b)       the bank borrowings related to the residential portfolio E6.369.466 that are repayable by ongoing sales proceeds,
which according to the IFRS appear to be repayable within the next 12 months. Most of these loans have been or are under
the process to be extended for 2-5 years. 
 
c)        an amount of E6.594.396, registered as the total liability to the Bank of Cyprus, currently under final
settlement 
 
d)       an aggregate amount of E3.624.319, registered as the total liability of the Group towards Alpha Bank in respect to
the Boyana project which was under restructuring that has been signed in March 2017 (Note 36g) 
 
e)        an aggregate amount of E2.661.592 registered as the total liability of the Group towards the Bank of Piraeus in
respect to the Green Lake project which is under restructuring. 
 
Based on the above, current liabilities are higher than current assets by E741.764.
