MAGNAT sells the Russian Sadko investment and in doing so reduces its
commitment in Russia

  - The contract on the sale of the Russian Sadko investment was signed at
    the end of March; prepayment of about 50% took place today.

  - The investment backflow is around EUR 0.8 million. The Sadko investment
was acquired with original costs of around EUR 1.8 million.

  - Adjustments in value, for example due to currency effects, were already
made in the previous periods. Therefore, it is not expected that the
transaction will further influence the fourth quarter result negatively.

Frankfurt am Main, 19 May 2009 - MAGNAT Real Estate Opportunities GmbH &
Co. KGaA ('MAGNAT') (ISIN: DE000A0J3CH0) has sold the Russian Sadko
investment. The investment, which was originally acquired for about EUR 1.8
million, was sold to the Russian project partner. Investment backflow is
around EUR 0.8 million. Since adjustments to the value were made in
previous periods due to currency effects, this sale, which will be posted
in the fourth quarter of the 2008/2009 fiscal year, will not further
influence MAGNAT's result negatively. The payment schedule provides for the
investment backflow to be made by 1 August 2009 in instalments, the first
instalment has been paid.

In recent weeks and months, the Management and the Supervisory Board of
MAGNAT have carefully evaluated developments in the international real
estate markets and, in particular, the extremely difficult Russian real
estate market. The outcome of this evaluation is that they have decided to
reduce the MAGNAT's commitment in Russia.
