Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions by management regarding present and future business strategies and the environment operating in the future. Although the Company believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond its control.

Construction programme area figures set out in this presentation, including the "Total area of construction programme" figures, may not reflect the final construction programme area figures. Whether such figures do or do not reflect the final construction programme area figures, they may not reflect the revenues ultimately recognized by Etalon. Calculating construction programme area figures is an inherently subjective process, and is subject to uncertainty. In addition, the construction programme area figures may not be directly comparable to figures given in respect of similar portfolios held by other real estate development businesses in the Russian market as a result of different assumptions and methodologies. In particular, the "Total area of construction programme" figures include area in which governmental authorities, and other third parties, have an interest. The term "NSA" as used in this Presentation refers to Net Sellable/Leasable Area. NSA figures include parking lots (calculated assuming an average parking lot area of 30 sqm) in the case of Projects under development, and exclude parking lots in the case of completed Projects. NSA figures also exclude communal areas and other areas not for sale.
