Radek Zeman - CTP CFO

The recovery of the Czech economy, particularly in the second half of 2010, caused

new and postponed projects to start to be realized. The vacancy

in our portfolio dropped to under 6%, rents stabilized and demand for new space increased. We expect this trend to continue in 2011. We have developed partnerships with five banks and have received good support throughout the crisis from our financial partners. Our goal is to extend the number of our banks from five to eight in 2011 and 2012, focusing on new banks to finance our development. Although banks still want significant prelease and equity requirements, they also have increased volumes for financing real estate and reduced interest rates for good products.

Paul returns to the company after 4 years away; he helped to build CTP when the company was in its earlier stages. CTP News

interviews Paul on what it’s like to be back.

I’m sure some people have been wondering where you’ve been hiding all these years... desert island soaking up the sun perhaps? Well, unfortunately not! Actually, I have been doing a few deals under the radar and keeping my head above water during the challenging times of the past years. Mainly it was a quest to gain more experience. I worked on some start-ups and believe me that’s a good way to really challenge your skills, scare yourself silly and grow.

Do you see any difference in the company today? CTP still holds the same values it started with years ago, providing quality buildings in well located parks and offering clients a reliable partner to take care of its property needs. The company has been under the same management since the start and

CTP Supports Higher Education Brno, Ostrava


Located 45km from Prague on the main D1 highway Divišov provides a direct connection between Prague and Brno. The area has been

primarily developed for companies needing logistics connections, which service clients throughout the Czech Republic. CTPark Divišov has better access now due to the new ring road developments in Prague. The location enables companies to run efficient goods outside of the Czech Republic from Germany, Vienna and Bratislava.

After the completion of the Prague ring road travelling time around

Prague is estimated to be reduced to make it aprox 4 times faster.

Everyone travelling in the surroundings of Prague will appreciate its importance because they will not be forced to go to inhabited areas. What is more, a backbone network of motorways will soon be finished; sections of motorways D5, D8 and D11 will be put into operation next year already, which will streamline additional European traffic on our roads.

From January 19th till January 22nd the CTP team along with agents from different real estate agencies enjoyed their annual

stay in the Austrian ski resort of Saalbach. The program started with late arrival to the pleasant Art & Ski-in hotel Hinterhag followed by dinner and lively conversation till the morning hours. The next three days provided unlimited skiing possibilities. Non–skiers had a nice and busy program too. They enjoyed the toboggan slide at the Reiterkogel as well as ice karting.

The team spent the evening and nights together. The evening always started with a traditional Aprés-ski, a speciality of this part of the country. Thursday evening the snowmobiles took everyone up the hill to the Spielberkhouse, where a delicious dinner party took place. With the sound of melodic accordion people enjoyed a tasty turkey and other delicacies. The way back was a lot of fun, as everybody went down the hill by sledge. Friday evening’s dinner was special as well, and was followed by a long night of dancing and fun. The CTP ski trip 2011 was a long weekend to relish and remember.ISO 14001 at CTP

CTP realizes the vast impact our activities have on the environment, human health and the economy. With sustainable building as one of CTP’s top priorities the company is working hard to obtain ISO 14001 certification, a goal which will be accomplished in the first half of 2011. In CTPark Ostrava we are currently working on the methodology which will be used for all our other parks.

ISO 14001 will be a tool for our property management to improve the environmental management of our portfolio. This means what CTP does to:

• Identify and minimize/control harmful effects on the environment caused by its activities, products or services;

• Achieve continual improvement of its environmental performance;

• Implement a systematic approach to setting environmental objectives and targets, to achieving these and to demonstrating that they have been achieved.

The CTP Online Help Desk

During a busy lunchtime we visited the IQ restaurant at the Spielberk Office Centre to get a feel for what the international population of the office complex like best about the place they spend their working days. A Czech woman who works for PPG Industries that we approached was especially happy with her meal that day, and an Englishman working at Monster Worldwide CZ echoed her sentiments, saying they no longer have to get take-out with the IQ restaurant there.

An Indian employee of Infosys BPO pointed out the green areas and the youthful atmosphere, while the lake received special mention from a number of the employees interviewed. One thing everyone agreed on was the services Spielberk offers, with a Slovak woman who works at Lufthansa GTS highlighting the banks, bakery, flower shop and hairdressers.

The third and final phase of the Spielberk

Office Centre continues with construction of two towers scheduled for completion in the

first quarter of 2012. The concrete structure of the Tower will reach it´s highest point at the end of May. With its majestic 85m height it will be the highest office building in Brno; the focal point of the Spielberk community and a landmark of the Brno skyline.

The already completed building A stands at 52.6m and building B has reached its 15th floor (56.6m) and is still under construction. The 21-storey Office Tower will be our new premium office address with 16 621 m² of A-class workspace, flexible floor plans and panoramic views of the city center. The 14-storey A building will provide a total of 11 986 m² of usable area, including conference space and other business services.

We own 1.6 mln m² of rentable area and expect to grow our portfolio by 7-12% p.a. to reach 3 mln m² in 7-10 years. We don’t consider trading the properties and focusing on short term profit but rather satisfy the needs of our tenants. In our business plan we consider that the growth of the Czech economy will continue, and that convergence of the Czech economy with Europe as well as positive developments in Germany will support this growth. Our plan is to expand into neighbouring countries. With the turnover of € 100 mln, yielding assets of € 1.3 bn and combined equity of € 600 mln, we believe that we are in good financial shape for the future.

CZ Economy: The Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) for the Czech Republic reached a record level in January of 60.5, according to HBSC bank and research firm Markit. The previous record was 59.5 and was reached in July 2007. Results over 50.0 indicate sector growth, which the country’s PMI has remained above since November 2009. January’s record was achieved due to the fastest growth in the survey’s history, with domestic and German demand both being key factors. Czech PMI ranks ahead of the eurozone and only behind Germany and the UK in Europe.

CZ Automotive: Czech passenger car production topped one million units for the first time ever last year, according to the Czech Automotive Industry Association. There were 1.072 million cars made in the Czech Republic in 2010 and 1.095 road vehicles altogether, representing a y-o-y rise of 9.4%. Škoda Auto accounted for 53% of the increase, with TPCA next at 28% and then Hyundai, with 19%. Czech domestic car sales rose by 6% on the year, while exports went up by 11.2% at 1.19 million units.

CZ Real Estate: Property investment in the Czech Republic is rising sharply, with a 40% y-o-y increase in 2010, according to the latest Capital Markets Bulletin released by Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL). Total investment in 2010 is estimated at around € 800 mln. Domestic investors heavily dominated the market, led by the CPI Group, which accounted for 40% of the total.

On January 13th CTP held the first Thirsty Thursday for

2011 organized together with RICS. This traditional event was held in Caffrey’s Irish Bar and celebrated even greater success than the previous one held in September. CTP hosted

This time it was not only partners from the business sector invited, but also very important people from the financial and legal sector of the real estate market. Thirsty Thursday is becoming a tradition for CTP and it makes us very proud that this event is getting more popular every time. The next Thirsty Thursday is going to be held on September 8th at the James Joyce Irish Pub in Prague 1, so get Thirsty!

I have been a member of the CTP team since January 2011, working as a project manager of CTPark Brno - Phase II, which will be one of the company’s

largest construction projects this year.

My main responsibilities are organizing the construction works and operations on site until the final handover to the client. I also support the other team members in the preparation and permitting phases of the project.

I have gained my industry experience working for LIDL, where I took part in the company’s expansion onto the Czech and Slovak markets. As a project manager I managed complex projects from the initial negotiations of conditions through the construction, supervision of the process and coordination of works. An important part was also the handover to clients and aftercare. I am ready to put my experience to work for CTP in all its upcoming projects.

I consider my presence at CTP a great challenge and opportunity for my professional and personal growth.

Who’s NEW at CTP

Remon VosCTP | Chief Executive Officer

Welcome to CTP NEWS

As business developer for the North-Moravian region since Dec. 2010, I am primarily responsible for contacting potential clients,

preparing indicative offers and maintaining contacts with real estate agents and agencies. I also work closely with the park manager to make sure we take proper after-care of our clients, as it is my responsibility to flexibly address their growth needs. I keep an eye on our leasing database for some of its business indicators.

Working for the biggest developer of industrial and office parks in the Czech Republic allows me to view the complexity of the real estate market and make use of my previous experience from shopping centers as well as OEM projects, where I always worked in positions of close cooperation with clients.

I am looking forward to getting new experience to further my professional as well as personal growth. I will be glad to help the Ostrava region and its companies extend and create new and interesting working places.

Lucie PolákováCTP | Business Developer - Ostrava

Who’s NEW at CTP

2010 has been a good year for CTP. Our Annual Report shows an increase

of rental income to almost € 100 mln last year. Vacancy has dropped. The value of our standing portfolio is stable.

I am excited about the new projects which will be constructed during 2011. Most of the new properties are being built for long term clients, which confirms that Central Europe works for them and that they are okay with us. It is important for CTP to continue in diversifying the portfolio. Success should not rely on one particular business, property type or location. It is therefore important to add more office projects to our portfolio.

We will extend our cooperation with existing long term banking partners and I am also happy to announce that we have signed an agreement with KBC / CSOB for the financing of our new project. We are now working with six different banks to finance our portfolio.

We will continue to work hard in order to grow our company.

Remon Vos can be reached at [email protected] Mobile: +420 602 762 124

CTP will be investing more than €50 million into the project, consisting of A-class office space and over 5 000 m² of landscaping and greenery surrounding the development. The IQ design is based on CTP’s highly successful IQ Buildings at the Spielberk Office Centre in Brno. The office project will be developed to achieve high energy efficiency and sustainability, the high quality of which will be confirmed by Building Research Establishment Method (BREEAM) certification.

Every year Czech Universities expand their study opportunities and improve the quality of courses for both Czech and international students. More

than twenty-five thousand foreigners, accounting for over 8% of all university students, are currently studying at Czech universities, and their programs are mostly taught in English, or another foreign language to attract more foreign students to come and study in the Czech Republic. Three Czech universities (Masaryk University, Brno; Palacky University, Olomouc and Charles

University, Praha) presented themselves at the NAFSA Annual Conference and Expo in Kansas City, US, at the beginning of June. They discussed partnerships within the scope of student and teacher exchange programs, as well as partnerships and preparation of short-term study programs.

The number of students interested in studying abroad is growing worldwide. Two million students studied abroad in 2001, while in 2008 this number reached three million and is expected to rise to seven million in 2025.

has not changed hands, which in-turn provides a stable environment for clients. Our clients want to get on with the job and concentrate on core business and I believe CTP has succeeded in giving the customer peace of mind and flexibility to grow. These philosophies remain the same, however I would have to say the main difference in the company is the size. CTP is bigger now; more stable and has a lot more clout. With much less speculative development going on, being able to offer space at short notice or provide existing clients with expansion options really proves valuable.

What are some of the first things you will be involved with at CTP? I would like to continue streamlining some of our current processes; CTP has a variety of offices across the CEE. We don’t see each other face to face every day so it’s important to keep clear and fast communication. Coordination of leasing and client relations are some other areas I’ll be working on.

What are some of your main business focuses for CTP right now? We are focusing some of our attention on clients from the R&D sector. There are a lot of talented Czech scientists and university students working on very interesting and innovative technology projects such as nanotechnology, waste water treatment and medical research. The government is very supportive of this and we expect some savvy companies to capitalize on these skills. Language skills are also improving and we expect continued interest from customer service and back office centers.

Our AXIS office park model been specifically designed to house these types of operations in a quality, yet cost effective environment. You only need look at some of the major names doing business in Brno and Ostrava to see the high skill level of university graduates coming from the respective universities.

Czech Universities Continue to Improve Quality

Radek Zeman - CTP CFO

The recovery of the Czech economy, particularly in the second half of 2010, caused

new and postponed projects to start to be realized. The vacancy

in our portfolio dropped to under 6%, rents stabilized and demand for new space increased. We expect this trend to continue in 2011. We have developed partnerships with five banks and have received good support throughout the crisis from our financial partners. Our goal is to extend the number of our banks from five to eight in 2011 and 2012, focusing on new banks to finance our development. Although banks still want significant prelease and equity requirements, they also have increased volumes for financing real estate and reduced interest rates for good products.

Paul returns to the company after 4 years away; he helped to build CTP when the company was in its earlier stages. CTP News

interviews Paul on what it’s like to be back.

I’m sure some people have been wondering where you’ve been hiding all these years... desert island soaking up the sun perhaps? Well, unfortunately not! Actually, I have been doing a few deals under the radar and keeping my head above water during the challenging times of the past years. Mainly it was a quest to gain more experience. I worked on some start-ups and believe me that’s a good way to really challenge your skills, scare yourself silly and grow.

Do you see any difference in the company today? CTP still holds the same values it started with years ago, providing quality buildings in well located parks and offering clients a reliable partner to take care of its property needs. The company has been under the same management since the start and

CTP Supports Higher Education Brno, Ostrava


Located 45km from Prague on the main D1 highway Divišov provides a direct connection between Prague and Brno. The area has been

primarily developed for companies needing logistics connections, which service clients throughout the Czech Republic. CTPark Divišov has better access now due to the new ring road developments in Prague. The location enables companies to run efficient goods outside of the Czech Republic from Germany, Vienna and Bratislava.

After the completion of the Prague ring road travelling time around

Prague is estimated to be reduced to make it aprox 4 times faster.

Everyone travelling in the surroundings of Prague will appreciate its importance because they will not be forced to go to inhabited areas. What is more, a backbone network of motorways will soon be finished; sections of motorways D5, D8 and D11 will be put into operation next year already, which will streamline additional European traffic on our roads.

From January 19th till January 22nd the CTP team along with agents from different real estate agencies enjoyed their annual

stay in the Austrian ski resort of Saalbach. The program started with late arrival to the pleasant Art & Ski-in hotel Hinterhag followed by dinner and lively conversation till the morning hours. The next three days provided unlimited skiing possibilities. Non–skiers had a nice and busy program too. They enjoyed the toboggan slide at the Reiterkogel as well as ice karting.

The team spent the evening and nights together. The evening always started with a traditional Aprés-ski, a speciality of this part of the country. Thursday evening the snowmobiles took everyone up the hill to the Spielberkhouse, where a delicious dinner party took place. With the sound of melodic accordion people enjoyed a tasty turkey and other delicacies. The way back was a lot of fun, as everybody went down the hill by sledge. Friday evening’s dinner was special as well, and was followed by a long night of dancing and fun. The CTP ski trip 2011 was a long weekend to relish and remember.ISO 14001 at CTP

CTP realizes the vast impact our activities have on the environment, human health and the economy. With sustainable building as one of CTP’s top priorities the company is working hard to obtain ISO 14001 certification, a goal which will be accomplished in the first half of 2011. In CTPark Ostrava we are currently working on the methodology which will be used for all our other parks.

ISO 14001 will be a tool for our property management to improve the environmental management of our portfolio. This means what CTP does to:

• Identify and minimize/control harmful effects on the environment caused by its activities, products or services;

• Achieve continual improvement of its environmental performance;

• Implement a systematic approach to setting environmental objectives and targets, to achieving these and to demonstrating that they have been achieved.

The CTP Online Help Desk

During a busy lunchtime we visited the IQ restaurant at the Spielberk Office Centre to get a feel for what the international population of the office complex like best about the place they spend their working days. A Czech woman who works for PPG Industries that we approached was especially happy with her meal that day, and an Englishman working at Monster Worldwide CZ echoed her sentiments, saying they no longer have to get take-out with the IQ restaurant there.

An Indian employee of Infosys BPO pointed out the green areas and the youthful atmosphere, while the lake received special mention from a number of the employees interviewed. One thing everyone agreed on was the services Spielberk offers, with a Slovak woman who works at Lufthansa GTS highlighting the banks, bakery, flower shop and hairdressers.
