The accompanying notes are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   NOTE 1:         GENERAL 

Summit Germany Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together: the "Group") is a German property specialist company. The Company was incorporated and registered in Guernsey on 19 April 2006. The parent company of the Group is Summit Real Estate Holdings Ltd (hereinafter: "SHL"), a company registered in Israel.

The Group owns, enhances and operates commercial real estate assets in Germany including office buildings, logistic centers and others, which are leased to numerous commercial and industrial tenants. The Group invests primarily in such properties that provide substantial income flows and potential for value increase through asset management. The Group does not acquire properties for speculative purposes.

   NOTE 2:       ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Basis of preparation:

The annual financial statements of Summit Germany Limited are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union. The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been applied to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Financial Statements as in the annual financial statements as of 31 December 2016. The presentation of the unaudited condensed interim financial statements is consistent with the annual financial statements as of 31 December 2016.

The condensed set of financial statements included in this interim financial report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union.

Going concern

The directors are satisfied that the Group has sufficient resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, a period of not less than 12 months from the date of this report. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the condensed financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   NOTE 3:         CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY 

In the application of Group's accounting policies which are described in Note 2 to the annual financial statements as of 31 December 2016, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty:

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the consolidated statement of financial position date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed in the Group Consolidated Financial Statements as of 31 December 2016.

Fair Value of investment properties:

The Group carries its investment properties at fair value, with changes in fair values being recognised in profit or loss. The Group engages independent valuation specialists to determine fair value of investment properties at least on an annual basis. The valuation technique used to determine fair value of investment properties is based on a discounted cash flow model as well as comparable market data.

The determined fair value of the investment properties is sensitive to the estimated yield, estimated rental values as well as the long term vacancy rate. See note 5 for further information.

Taxation:

Uncertainties might exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulations, changes in tax laws, and the amount and timing of future taxable income. Given the Group's international business relationships and the nature of contractual agreements, differences arising between the actual results and the assumptions made, or future changes to such assumptions, could necessitate future adjustments to tax income and expense already recorded.

Deferred taxes

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits (See also note 17 to the annual financial statements as of 31 December 2016).

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   NOTE 3:         CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY (Cont.) 

Acquisition of assets:

In regard to the transactions detailed in note 5, the Group management and the Directors have reviewed the characteristics of the transaction and the properties over which control was acquired by the Group, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS 3. Although control over corporate entities was gained as a result of the transaction, these entities were special purpose vehicles for holding properties rather than separate business entities - this judgment was made mainly due to the absence of business processes inherent in these entities. Consequently, the Directors consider that the transaction meets the criteria of acquisition of assets and liabilities rather than business combination, and accounted for the transaction as such.

   NOTE 4:               ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS 
   A)     Amendments to standards affecting the current period and / or previous reporting periods: 
   *       Amendments to IAS 12 Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses 

The amendments clarify the following:

1. Decreases below cost in the carrying amount of a fixed-rate debt instrument measured at fair value for which the tax base remains at cost give-rise to a deductible temporary difference, irrespective of whether the debt instrument's holder expects to recover the carrying amount of the debt instrument by sale or by use, or whether it is probable that the issuer will pay all the contractual cash flows;

2. When an entity assesses whether taxable profits will be available against which it can utilise a deductible temporary difference, and the tax law restricts the utilisation of losses to deduction against income of a specific type (e.g. capital losses can only be set off against capital gains), an entity assesses a deductible temporary difference in combination with other deductible temporary differences of that type, but separately from other types of deductible temporary differences;

3. The estimate of probable future taxable profit may include the recovery of some of an entity's assets for more than their carrying amount if there is sufficient evidence that it is probable that the entity will achieve this; and

4. In evaluating whether sufficient future taxable profits are available, an entity should compare the deductible temporary differences with future taxable profits excluding tax deductions resulting from the reversal of those deductible temporary differences.

The amendments apply retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 with earlier application permitted.

   NOTE 4:               ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS (Cont.) 
   B)     New and revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective 
   *       IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 

In May 2014, IFRS 15 was issued which establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 will supersede the current revenue recognition guidance including IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11

Construction Contracts and the related interpretations when it becomes effective.

The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Specifically, the Standard introduces a 5-step approach to revenue recognition.

   --      Step 1: Identify the contracts(s) with a customer. 
   --      Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract. 
   --      Step 3: Determine the transaction price. 
   --      Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. 
   --      Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. 

Under IFRS 15, an entity recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when 'control' of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Far more prescriptive guidance has been added in IFRS 15 to deal with specific scenarios. Furthermore, extensive disclosures are required by IFRS 15.

The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of IFRS 15 will have a significant effect on the Group. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

   *       IFRS 16 Leases 

In January 2016, the IASB published IFRS 16 Leases. The new Standard supersedes IAS 17 Leases and its associated interpretative guidance.

IFRS 16 applies a control model to the identification of leases, distinguishing between leases and service contracts on the basis of whether there is an identified asset controlled by the customer.

IFRS 16 introduces significant changes to lessee accounting it removes the distinction between operating and finance leases under IAS 17 and requires a lessee to recognise a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at lease commencement for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low value assets.

   B)     New and revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective (Cont.) 
   *           IFRS 16 Leases (Cont.) 

IFRS 16 is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 with early application permitted for entities that apply IFRS 15 at or before the date of initial application of IFRS 16.

The Group does not expect that this standard will have a significant effect on its financial statements.

   --     IFRS 9 Financial Instruments 

IFRS 9 issued in November 2009 introduced new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. IFRS 9 was subsequently amended in October 2010 to include requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities and for derecognition, and in November 2013 to include the new requirements for general hedge accounting. Another revised of IFRS 9 was issued in July 2014 mainly to include a) impairment requirements for financial assets and b) limited amendments to the classification and measurement requirements by introducing a 'fair value through other comprehensive income' (FVTOCI) measurement category for certain simple debt instruments.

Key requirements of IFRS 9:

-- All recognised financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement are required to be subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Specifically, debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. Debt instruments that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and that have contractual terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, are measured at FVTOCI. All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair value at the end of subsequent accounting periods. In addition, under IFRS 9, entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss.

-- With regard to the measurement of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, IFRS 9 requires that the amount of change in the fair value of the financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of the effects of changes in the liability's credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability's credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Under IAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as fair value through profit or loss is presented in profit or loss.

   B)     New and revised IFRSs in issue but not yet effective (Cont.) 
   *     IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (Cont.) 

Key requirements of IFRS 9 (Cont.):

-- In relation to the impairment of financial assets, IFRS 9 requires an expected credit loss model, as opposed to an incurred loss model under IAS 39. The expected credit loss model requires an entity to account for expected credit losses and changes in those expected credit losses at each reporting date to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition. In other words, it is no longer necessary for a credit event to have occurred before credit losses are recognised.

-- The new general hedge accounting requirements retain the three types of hedge accounting mechanisms currently available in IAS 39. Under IFRS 9, greater flexibility has been introduced to the types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the types of instruments that qualify for hedging instruments and the types of risk components of non-financial items that are eligible for hedge accounting. In addition, the effectiveness test has been overhauled and replaced with the principle of an 'economic relationship'. Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness is also no longer required. Enhanced disclosure requirements about an entity's risk management activities have also been introduced.

The directors of the Company do not expect that this standard will have a significant effect on the Group. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   NOTE 5:         INVESTMENT PROPERTIES (cont) 
   a.         Fair value adjustments 

The investment properties are stated at fair value. The fair value represents the amount at which the assets could be exchanged between a willing buyer and willing seller in an arm's length transaction at the date of valuation, after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion. Valuations are prepared by external valuators at least once a year and more frequently when significant changes to properties' value are identified.

The valuations are performed using the income capitalisation method, which is a valuation model based on the present value of expected Net Operating Income per property. Real estate valuations are based on the net annual cash flows after capitalisation by discounted rates that reflect the specific risks inherent in property activity.

During the reporting period, an independent external valuation was obtained by the Company. According to the valuation report, the value of properties increased by EUR93.8 million.

   b.        Disposals 

(1) As of 31 December 2016, a property valued at approximately EUR2.2 million was classified as held for sale. During the reporting period, the property was sold for a consideration similar to its carrying amount. Further details on investment property held for sale as of 30 September 2016 and as of 31 December 2016 - see note 5 D of the annual financial statements as of 31 December 2016.

(2) 18 properties valued at approximately EUR15.1 million were sold during the period for a consideration similar to their carrying amount. EUR9.1 million of the purchase price was paid in cash and was mostly used to partially repay one of the Company's debt facilities. The remaining balance is outstanding as a five-year loan bearing an average annual interest rate of 3% and secured by a first rank mortgage over the sold properties and the shares of the companies in which they are held.

   c.         Additions 

Additions during the period include acquisitions described below and capital expenditures related to the Group's portfolio.

In June 2017, the Group completed an acquisition of a portfolio of commercial properties located in four different sites in the city of Wolfsburg, Germany, for a total purchase price of approximately EUR100 million.

The acquired portfolio has a lettable area of 80,000 sqm and is fully let, mainly to Volkswagen Group (approximately 60% of the lettable space through 15 different leases), as well as to other leading Companies in the automotive industry. The properties generate annual net rent of approximately EUR7.9 million.

The acquisition was carried out as a share deal transaction and the purchase price, net of liabilities of approximately EUR70 million, was financed by the Company's existing cash of approximately EUR30 million.

For further information on Acquisitions during the nine months ended on 30 September 2016 - see note 5C of the annual financial statements as of 31 December 2016.

The Group provides funding for several residential development projects in Berlin. For further details, see note 6 of the Group Consolidated Financial Statements as of 31 December 2016.

During the reporting period, the Group engaged in two projects for the development of 95 residential units in Berlin and committed to provide funds of approximately EUR7 million as loan, in terms similar to the previous projects. Additional increase in the balance in comparison to the balance as of 31 December 2016 is due to loan of EUR6 million given to the purchaser of properties as detailed in 5 b 2.

The loan and the accrued interest are repayable from the revenues of the project, expected in the second half of 2020.

   NOTE 7:         INTEREST-BEARING LOANS AND BORROWING 

a) The Company is engaged in financing agreements with several credit providers. To the date of this report the borrowing entities comply with all the covenants set in their financing agreements.

b) In June 2017, the Group acquired a portfolio of properties - as detailed in note 5 a above. The properties are financed by loans with a remaining term of approximately 7 years and bear an average interest rate of 5% p.a. and average amortisation of 3.12% p.a. The loans are subject to a DSCR financial covenant of 225%.

c) In July 2017, the Group acquired from one of its lenders a debt secured over several Group properties (the "Acquired Debt") for a consideration of EUR19.5 million.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   NOTE 9:         FAIR VALUE 

Fair value of financial instruments carried at amortised cost:

The directors consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at amortised cost in the financial statements approximate their fair values.

Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position:

The fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1, 2 and 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.

-- Level 1 fair value measurements marketable securities are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

-- Level 2 fair value measurements (swaps transactions) are derived from inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for those instruments directly (i.e. as prices).

-- Level 3 fair value measurements (available-for-sale investment - unquoted equity share) are derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Refer to Note 5 for valuation approach adopted on investment property.
