General information on the issuer and its share capital Management report for the year ended 31 December 2017

1.3.6 Debt On 30 October 2017, the Group took out a new loan for €15.2 million from Berlin Hyp. It expires at the end of October 2022 (repayment on maturity). Backed by a retail property asset, this new loan replaces a credit line of €14.8 million which expired on 8 December 2017 and which was repaid early. Following this refinancing, over 90% of the Group’s debt matures in four years or more, with the exception of the loan granted by SCOR SE, M.R.M.’s majority shareholder, backed by the Nova office property classified as held for sale. At year-end 2017, the €22.0 million loan granted by SCOR SE, which was due to expire on 15 January 2018, was extended until 15 January 2019. As of 31 December 2017, Group financing consisted of mortgage bank debt of €73.4 million and the €21.9 million loan granted by SCOR SE. The Group’s total outstanding borrowings thus amounted to €95.3 million compared with €96.0 million at the end of 2016. The €0.7 million decrease reflects contractual repayments and redemptions undertaken during the year which were partly offset by drawdowns on the available credit line facility and the new loan taken out with Berlin Hyp. The average cost of debt stood at 1.83% in 2017.

It represents a total projected investment of €35 million, of which €13.6 million was committed as of 31 December 2017. After the completion in 2016 of works to reconfigure and relet 5,000 sqm in the Sud Canal shopping centre in Saint- Quentin-en-Yvelines, and to renovate and reposition the Les Halles du Beffroi shopping centre in Amiens, in 2017 full ownership of the Aria Parc retail park in Allonnes was acquired, works to reconfigure and extend the Carré Vélizy complex in Vélizy-Villacoublay were completed, and the first stage of the value-enhancement programme for the Passage de la Réunion shopping centre in Mulhouse was completed.
