Financial Figures/Balance Sheet/Volume of transactions in 2010

Berlin, 18 January 2011 (euro adhoc) - The volume of transactions
generated by the EUROPACE platform reached a new all-time high in
2010. Benign market conditions, carefully targeted capital
expenditure and the growing marketplace effect enabled the Company to
continue on its growth trajectory.

The volume of transactions executed via the EUROPACE financial
marketplace hit a new record of EUR15.107 billion for 2010 as a
whole, which was a year-on-year increase of 17.1 per cent. "After the
crisis-ridden year of 2009, this outstanding result puts us firmly
back on our growth trajectory", stressed Ronald Slabke, Chief
Executive Officer of Hypoport AG, looking back over the past nine
years. With the exception of 2009, the volume of transactions
generated by EUROPACE has grown by a double- or even triple-digit
percentage every year since the platform was launched in the market.
Slabke added that the resultant cumulative transaction value of over
EUR75 billion bore impressive testimony to the platform´s growing
appeal and marketplace effect.

Mortgage finance continued to account for the largest proportion of
total transaction volume in 2010, increasing by 12.44 per cent year
on year to EUR12.853 billion. The contribution made by personal loans
to the overall result amounted to EUR1.23 billion, which was
virtually unchanged year on year. Building finance, the latest
product to be added to the range, generated a transaction volume of
EUR1.024 billion, almost quadrupling its contribution.

Having got off to a disappointing start to 2010, the Company´s strong
results improved as market conditions gradually normalised over the
course of the year and operational measures began to take effect.
Historically low interest rates encouraged many to invest in real
estate. The first rate hike since the start of the financial crisis
(implemented in the third quarter of 2010) boosted short-term demand
for real estate and caused transaction volumes to rise further and
hit an all-time high. Product suppliers´ ability to raise funding in
the capital markets also improved in 2010 despite the euro crisis.
This enabled market participants established on the platform for many
years to regain market share and competitive advantages. It also
strengthened the business conducted by independent intermediaries
which, with their extensive product ranges, turned out to be last
year´s winners. However, increasingly regional providers were also
looking to exploit the benefits of the online financial marketplace
in 2010 in order to maintain their competitive edge in the long term.
The carefully targeted capital expenditure of recent years enabled
them to meet their aspirations. The refinement of EUROPACE and the
money spent on tapping new market segments formed the basis for the
swift action taken here. More than 60 new product partners were
connected to EUROPACE or its sister platforms GENOPACE and FINMAS
within a year.
