IN SHOPPING PÁTIO SAVASSI TO 96.5%
The shopping center will have an expansion until the end of the year

Rio de Janeiro, July 22, 2010 – MULTIPLAN EMPREENDIMENTOS HIGHLIGHTS


IMOBILIÁRIOS S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA: MULT3), following its growth strategy,
hereby announces the increase of the ownership interest in Shopping Pátio Interest acquired: 15.6%
Savassi through the acquisition of additional 15.6% stake of the mall, located Price: R$51.8 million
in the city of Belo Horizonte, state of Minas Gerais.
Resulting interest: 96.5%
Through the exercise of a call option signed with MK Empreendimentos e
Participações Ltda, Multiplan invested R$51.8 million in order to increase the
interest in the shopping center from 80.9% to 96.5%. The company also
acquired on the present date, for R$4.2 million, assets and interest in land
plots located in the surroundings of the shopping center, which might be used
for future expansions.

The acquisition allows Multiplan to increase control and efficiency of its


management in the shopping center, especially on what relates to renovations,
modernizations and expansions. In addition, until November of this year, an
expansion of 1,109 m² of gross leasable area will be opened in Pátio Savassi.
The internal rate of return (IRR) for the shopping center, since its initial
acquisition in 2007, is 16.8% p.a., real and unleveraged.

Besides the increase through future expansions (opening of new areas), the company expects a strong revenue growth,
given the sales increase of 72.1% for the mall in the last 12 months, when compared to 12 months prior to shopping center
acquisition (in June 2007). The company also sees a potential increase in the mall’s rental revenue, since the other two
Multiplan shopping centers in the region had a 26.5% higher rental revenue, compared to Pátio Savassi in 1Q10.

After the announced acquisition, Multiplan increases its owned GLA to 350.3 thousand m², also expanding the interest in its
portfolio to 65.7%.
