Impact of the Covid-19 During the first half of 2020, the Covid-19 global health and economic crisis was severely affecting business, leading to supply chain disruptions, cash flow problems and, more generally, a sharp drop in activity. Many countries are taking significant steps in trying to prevent the spread of the virus, such as restrictions on civilian movements, gatherings, border closures and the like. The Company monitors the consequences of the event and the actions taken on countries in which it operates and assesses the risks and exposures arising from these consequences. At this stage, the impact of the effect of the COVID 19 included a write off of its assets (refer to Note 5(3) and Notes 6(1) and 6(2) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). In addition, the COVID 19 effect caused Elbit Plaza India Real Estate Holdings Limited (a subsidiary held by the Company (50%) and Elbit Imaging Ltd. (50%)) ("EPI") to postpone the closing of the sale of 100% stake in the SPV which owns 74.7 acre plot in Chennai (subsidiary of EPI) (refer to Note 6(2) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). The COVID 19 also partly delayed the legal procedures against the purchaser of the SPV which owns the plot in Bangalore India (refer to Note 6(1) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). Other than the above mentioned, at this stage, the Company is not able to estimate the full future impact of COVID 19. However, the Company assumes the demand of interested buyers is expected to be smaller, which can have a material impact on the ability of the Company to complete the sale of the plots it owns. Material events during the period: Update on disposal of a plot of land in Brasov, Romania: On February 14, 2020 an indirect subsidiary completed the sale of the plot in Brasov, Romania and signed the definitive agreement for a total consideration of EUR 620,000 following which it received the last instalment of EUR 570,000 (the Company already received a down payment of EUR 50,000 in 2019).

At this stage, there is no clarity on payment of the remaining amount based on the Agreement. Accordingly, the Company is taking necessary steps to protect its interest, including, notice letters that were sent to the Partner, and filing a motion with court in order to collect checks given by the Partner to secure payments under the transaction, but were dishonoured.

MANAGEMENT STATEMENT During first half of 2020 the management’s focus has been on executing of cash proceeds on signed SPA for the sale of Chennai project in India. In the Bangalore project the Company together with Elbit continued to protect its interest in the project, including, by sending notice letters to the Partner, and filing a motion with court in order to collect checks received by the partner (refer also to Note 6(1) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). The Company also continued the disposals of plots of land in CEE and cost reductions and partial repayments to its bondholders. In addition, following a pre-sale agreement signed with AFI Europe N.V. (the “Purchaser”) in July 2019 for the sale of Company’s entire indirect shareholdings (75%) in the Casa Radio project (the “Project”), the Company together with the Purchaser (together “Parties”) made material efforts to receive the authority's approval in order to be able to execute a share purchase agreement (“SPA”). Despite of the Parties attempts there have been no progress since the pre-sale agreement has been signed. In light of the above the Company is exploring all its options in order to obtain progress, including among others her legal options. Due to the above, there can be no certainty that the SPA will eventually be executed and/or that the transaction will be completed. Over the coming months, the Company will maintain its focus on executing the agreement signed and to take necessary steps to protect its interest in the project in Bangalore India. And to also continue to take all the necessary steps to execute the agreement with AFI Europe N.V. Due to the board and management estimation that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt according to the current redemption date (January 1, 2021) in its current liquidity position, the Company intends to request from the bondholders of both series (Series A and Series B) postponement of the repayment of the remaining balance of the bonds. Results During the first half of the year, Plaza recorded a €7.3 million loss attributable to the shareholders of the Company. This is a 33% decrease compared to the losses reported in the first half of 2019 (€10.9 million). The losses were mainly from the Finance costs which were decreased to €6.1 million in 2020, from €10.3 million in 2019 mainly due to interests’ expenses accrued on the debentures (partly due to penalty interest calculated on the deferred principal). Total result of operations excluding finance income and finance cost was loss of €1.8 million in 2020 compared to reported loss of €0.4 million in the first half of 2019, mainly due to increase in the write down of trading property to €2.4 million in the first half of 2020. The consolidated cash position (cash on standalone basis as well as fully owned subsidiaries) as of 30 June 2020 was €2.6 million (31 December 2019: €1.1 million). Liquidity & Financing Plaza ended the period with a consolidated cash position of circa €2.6 million, compared to €1.1 million at the end of 2019. As of June 30, 2020, the Group's outstanding obligation to bondholders (including accrued interests) are app. €95.4 million. As previously disclosed by the Company in Note 8(c) to its annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019, the Company was not able to meet its final redemption obligation to its (Series A and Series B) bondholders, due on July 1, 2020, and on May 4, 2020, the bondholders approved: (i) to postpone the final redemption date to January 1, 2021; (ii) that on July 1, 2020 the Company will pay to its bondholders a partial interest payment in the total amount of EUR 250,000. Following receiving the Settlement Amount (see Note 7(f) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020), and in light of the potential negative impact of the Covid-19 on the possibility to receive future proceeds from the Company's plots in India, the Company decided to increase the amount to be paid to the bondholders on July 1, 2020, from EUR 250,000 to EUR 500,000. Due to the board and management estimation that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt according to the current bond's repayment schedule in its current liquidity position, the Company intends to request the bondholders of both series to postponement of the repayment of the remaining balance of the bonds. However, there is an uncertainty if the bondholders will approve the request. In the case that the bondholders would declare their remaining claims to become immediately due and payable, the Company would not be in a position to settle those claims and would need to enter to an additional debt restructuring or might cease to be a going concern. Strategy and Outlook The Company’s priorities are focused on efforts to sign definitive sale agreement of Casa Radio project, getting further proceeds for Bangalore and Chennai projects. The Company also intends to seek for bondholders’ approval for postponement of the repayment of the bonds. In addition, the Company intends to continue the cost-cutting of its operational cost.

General Background According to the abovementioned regulation, upon existence of warning signs as defined in the regulation, the Company is obliged to attach its report’s projected cash flow for a period of two years, commencing with the date of approval of the reports ("Projected Cash Flow"). The Material uncertainty related to going concern was included in Note 1(b) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020 and in view of the management’s plans for asset disposals in respect of material uncertainty related to Casa Radio project, as described in Note 5 in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020 and the recent default of purchaser of Bangalore project to meet payments schedule according to the signed amendment agreement (refer to Note 6(1) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). The board and management estimates that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt according to the due date the bond holders approved to postpone the final redemption date. Accordingly, it is expected that the Company will not be able to meet its entire contractual obligations in the following 12 months. With such warning signs, the Company is providing projected cash flow for the period of 24 months. 2. Projected cash flow The Company has implemented the restructuring plan that was approved by the Dutch court on July 9, 2014 (the “Restructuring Plan”). Under the Restructuring Plan, principal payments under the bonds issued by the Company and originally due in the years 2013 to 2015 were deferred for a period of four and a half years, and principal payments originally due in 2016 and 2017 were deferred for a period of one year. During first three months 2017, the Company paid to its bondholders a total amount of NIS 191.7 million (EUR 49.2 million) as an early redemption. Upon such payments, the Company complied with the Early Prepayment Term (early redemption at the total sum of at least NIS 382 million) and thus obtained a deferral of one year for the remaining contractual obligations of the bonds. In January 2018, a settlement agreement was signed by and among the Company and the two Israeli Series of Bonds (refer to section “Liquidity and financing”). On November 22, 2018 the Company announced based on its current forecasts, the Company expected to pay the accrued interest on Series A and Series B Bonds on December 31, 2018, in accordance with the repayment schedule determined in the Company's Restructuring Plan and Settlement Agreement with Series A and Series B Bondholders from 11 January 2018 (the “Settlement Agreement”). The Company noted that it will not meet its principal repayment due on December 31, 2018 as provided for in the Settlement Agreement. On February 18, 2019 the Company paid principal of circa EUR 250,000 and Penalty interest on arrears of EUR 150,000 following the bondholder’s approval to defer principal repayment to July 1, 2019. In addition, during June 2019 the bondholders approved the deferral of the full payment of principal due on July 1, 2019 and of 58% ("deferred interest amount") of the sum of interest (consisting of the total interest accrued for the outstanding balance of the principal, including interest for part of the principal payment which was deferred as of February 18, 2019, plus interest arrears for part of the principal which was fixed on February 18, 2019 and was not paid by the Company and all in accordance with the provisions of the trust deed; "the full amount of interest"), the effective date of which is June 19, 2019, and the payment date was fixed as of July 1, 2019. The company paid on the said date a total amount of circa EUR 1.17 million, which is only 42% of the full amount of interest. On July 11, 2019, the Company announced that its Romanian subsidiary had signed a binding agreement to sell land in Romania (refer to Note 5(2)(c) of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019), and that the Company would use part of the proceeds now received by it EUR 0.75 million (hereinafter: "the amount payable"), in order to make a partial interest payment to the bondholders (Series A) and (Series B) issued by the Company. The payment required changes in the repayment schedule and amendments of the trust deeds which was approved unanimously by the Bondholders. The amount payable was paid on August 14, 2019 and reflects 30% of accrued interest as of that date. On November 17, 2019, the bondholders of Series A and Series B approved a deferral of all the scheduled Principal payment and app. 87% of deferral of the scheduled Interest payment, both, as of December 31, 2019 to July 1, 2020. On May 4, 2020, the bondholders of Series A and Series B approved: (i) to postpone the final redemption date to January 1, 2021 of all the scheduled Principal; (ii) that on July 1, 2020 the Company will pay to its bondholders a partial interest payment in the total amount of EUR 250,000 and to deferral all other unpaid scheduled Interest payment. Following receiving the Settlement Amount (refer to Note 7(f) in the interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2020), and in light of the potential negative impact of the Covid-19 on the possibility to receive future proceeds from the Company's plots in India, the Company decided to increase the amount to be paid to the bondholders on July 1, 2020, from EUR 250,000 to EUR 500,000. The amount reflected 6.74% of accrued interest as of that date. The materialisation, occurrence consummation and execution of the events and transactions and of the Assumptions on which the projected cash flow is based, including with respect to the proceeds and timing thereof, although probable, are not certain and are subject to factors beyond the Company's control as well as to the consents and approvals of third parties and certain risks factors. Therefore, delays in the realisation of the Company's assets and investments or realisation at a lower price than expected by the Company, as well as any other deviation from the Company's Assumptions (such as additional expenses due to suspension of trading, delay in submitting the statutory reports etc.), could have an adverse effect on the Company's cash flow and the Company's ability to service its indebtedness in a timely manner.

NOTE 1: - CORPORATE INFORMATION a. Plaza Centers N.V. ("the Company" and together with its subsidiaries, "the Group") was incorporated and is registered in the Netherlands. The Company's registered office is at Pietersbergweg 283, 1105 BM, Amsterdam, the Netherlands. In past the Company conducted its activities in the field of establishing, operating and selling of shopping and entertainment centers, as well as other mixed-use projects (retail, office, residential) in Central and Eastern Europe (starting 1996) and India (from 2006). Following debt restructuring plan approved in 2014 the Group’s main focus is to reduce corporate debt by early repayments following sale of assets and to continue with efficiency measures and cost reduction where possible. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for each of the periods presented comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") and the Group's interest in jointly controlled entities. The Company is listed on the premium segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange ("LSE"), the Warsaw Stock Exchange ("WSE") and on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE"). The Company's immediate parent company was Elbit Ultrasound (Luxemburg) B.V. / s.a.r.l ("EUL"), which held 44.9% of the Company's shares, till December 19, 2018 when EUL informed that it has signed a trust agreement according to which EUL will deposit its shares of the Company with a trustee and no longer considers itself to be the controlling shareholder of the Company. b. Going concern and liquidity position of the Company: As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s outstanding obligations to bondholders (including accrued interests) are app. EUR 95.4 million due date of which was postponed to January 1, 2021 (the "Current Due date") (please refer to Note 7(h)). Due to the above the Company’s primary need is for liquidity. The Company’s current and future resources include the following: i. cash and cash equivalents (including the cash of fully owned subsidiaries) of approximately EUR 2.61 million. ii. the Company's part (50%) in the proceeds from future repayments on account of the sale of a plot in Chennai, India (which is held by indirect subsidiary of the Company) based on a sale agreement signed on June 13, 2019 (refer to Note 6(2)) in a total amount of approximately EUR 13 million (the Company’s part EUR 6.5 million out of which an amount of EUR 1.18 million have been repaid to the Company in March, 2020). Still, in light of the ongoing lockdown due to COVID-19, the Purchaser got an exemption from the payment of INR 7.5 crores (due to June 2, 2020) and an extension of 3 months to complete the closing (i.e. September 2, 2020), which may be extended by another 3 months (i.e. up to December 2, 2020) upon paying additional deposit of INR 7.5 crores. Following the above, there is an uncertainty if and when the SPA closing will occur, hence no material resources are expected to be available until the closing occur. in addition, the fully owned subsidiary of the Company have signed a pre-sale agreement with AFI Europe N.V. (“AFI Europe”) to transfer its interest in a Romanian subsidiary to AFI Europe for the maximum consideration of EUR 60 million, subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions which includes among others an execution of SPA between the parties not later than December 5, 2020, following which AFI Europe is bound to make the first instalment in the amount of NOTE 1: - CORPORATE INFORMATION (Cont.) EUR 20 million. Despite of the parties’ attempts to receive the authority's approval in order to be able to execute the SPA there has been no progress since the pre-sale has been signed. In light of the above the Company is exploring all its options in order to obtain progress, including among others her legal options. Due to the above, there can be no certainty that the SPA will eventually be executed and/or that the transaction will be completed. iii. following the default of purchaser of Bangalore project to meet payments schedule according to the signed amendment agreement (refer to Note 6(1)) there can be no certainty that the agreement will be completed, hence no resources are expected to be available in forceable future at this time. Moreover, due to the outbreak of corona virus (Covid-19) pandemic globally caused significant disturbance and slowdown of economic activity. Due to the lockdown announced in many countries, the operations and economic activities were extremely limited in March-May 2020. Post easing of lockdown in May got back to operation again, but in line with respective rules and regulations. This will limit the ability of the Company to complete the sale of the plots it owned. As of today, the Company is not in compliance with the main Covenants as defined in the restructuring plan (for more details refer also to Note 8 of the annual financial statement as of December 31, 2019), hence under defaulted which could also trigger early repayment clause by the bondholders. Due to the abovementioned and due to the board and management estimation that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt on the Current Due Date, the Company intends to request the bondholders of both series an additional postponement of the repayment of the remaining balance of the bonds. However, there is an uncertainty if the bondholders will approve the request. In the case that the bondholders would declare their remaining claims to become immediately due and payable, the Company would not be in a position to settle those claims and would need to enter to an additional debt restructuring or might cease to be a going concern basis. Due to the abovementioned conditions a material uncertainty exists that casts significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group will be able to meet the mandatory repayment obligations of its bonds and other working capital requirements. NOTE 2: - BASIS OF PREPARATION a. Basis of preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial data: The interim condensed consolidated financial data for the six months period ended June 30, 2020 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 ("Interim Financial Reporting") as adopted by the European Union. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2019. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020 have been neither audited nor reviewed by the Company's auditors. The financial information for the half year ended 30 June 2019 has neither been audited nor reviewed by the auditors. NOTE 2: - BASIS OF PREPARATION (Cont.) Selected explanatory notes are, however, included to explain events and transactions that are significant to understanding the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020 were authorized by the Board of Directors on 14 August 2020. b. New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group: The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of 1 January 2020. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. Amendment to IFRS 3, "Business Combinations": In October 2018, the IASB issued an amendment to the definition of a "business" in IFRS 3, "Business Combinations" ("the Amendment"). The Amendment is intended to assist entities in determining whether a transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or as an acquisition of an asset. The Amendment clarifies that in order to be considered a business, an integrated set of activities and assets must include, as a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The Amendment also clarifies that a business can exist without including all of the inputs and processes needed to create outputs. The Amendment includes an optional concentration test according to which it can be determined that a business has not been acquired, without additional assessments. The Amendment is applied prospectively to all business combinations and asset acquisitions for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2020. The application of the Amendment is not expected to have a material effect on the Company. Amendments to IFRS 9, IFRS 7 and IAS 39: In September 2019, the IASB published amendments to IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments", IFRS 7, "Financial Instruments: Disclosures" and IAS 39," Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" ("the Amendment"). The Amendment provides certain transitional reliefs for companies applying hedge accounting based on the benchmark Interbank Offered Rates ("IBORs") and are affected by the uncertainty arising from the expected reform in these benchmark rates. The IBOR reform leads to uncertainty regarding the dates and amounts to be attributed to future cash flows relating to both hedging instruments and hedged items that rely on existing IBORs. The Amendment had no effect on the financial statements of the Company as of January 1, 2020, as it does not have material amounts of IBOR-based hedges in respect of which the timing of the IBOR reform could have an impact. NOTE 3: - USE OF JUDGEMENT AND ESTIMATES In preparing this interim condensed consolidated financial information, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing this interim condensed consolidated financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were principally the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2019, save for the changes highlighted above. Refer also to Note 1(b) above for significant estimations performed. NOTE 4: - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Carrying amounts and fair values In respect to the Company's financial instruments assets not presented at fair value, being mostly short-term market interest bearing liquid balances, the Company believes that the carrying amount approximates its fair value. In respect of the Company's financial instruments liabilities: Fair value of the quoted debentures is based on price quotations at the reporting date and is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Carrying amount Fair value June 30, December 31, June 30, December 31 2020 2019 2020 2019 Not audited Not reviewed Audited Not audited Not reviewed Audited EUR ‘000 EUR ‘000 EUR ‘000 EUR ‘000 Statement of financial position Debentures A – Israeli NIS bonds 36,503 35,824(1) 7,246 7,184 Debentures B – Israeli NIS bonds 51,934 50,682(2) 9,194 10,340 (1) includes amortisation cost of EUR 918 million as of December 31, 2019 (2) includes amortisation cost of EUR 1,593 million as of December 31, 2019 The total contractual liability of the Debentures was EUR 95.4 million as of June 30, 2020. NOTE 5: - CASA RADIO a. Following Note 5(3)(c) to the annual financial statements which discloses that the public authorities may seek to terminate the Public Private Partnership Agreement with respect to Casa Radio asset and potential implications, there have been no significant events since the publication of the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2019. b. Following Note 5(3)(f) to the annual consolidated financial statements which discloses that the Company signed a pre-sale agreement with AFI Europe N.V. (the "Purchaser", and together with the Company, the "Parties") for the sale of its entire indirect shareholdings (75%) in the Casa Radio Project (the "Project") and subject to the satisfaction of all the conditions precedent in the Pre-Sale Agreement, the parties to the Pre-Sale Agreement will execute a share purchase agreement in the short form being Annex 3 to the Pre-Sale Agreement (the "SPA"). Despite of the parties attempts to receive the authority's approval in order to be able to execute the SPA there has been no progress since the pre-sale has been NOTE 5: - CASA RADIO (Cont.) signed. In light of the above the Company is exploring all its options in order to obtain progress, including among others her legal options. Due to the above, there can be no certainty that the SPA will eventually be executed and/or that the transaction will be completed. c. Write-down of trading properties: Following signing of pre-sale agreement as described in Note 5(3)(f) to the annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019, the Company measured the net realizable value of the project based on the signed pre-sale agreement. For this purpose, a valuation was performed through an external appraiser whose opinion does not reflect the risk related to uncertainty in respect of fulfilment of the closing conditions, as described in Note 5(3)(f) to the annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019 and derived to a value of EUR 37 million. As a result, the Company's management assumed additional discount of 35% in order to reflect this uncertainty which resulted in value of the proposed deal of EUR 24 million. Due to the material changes in the Real Estate markets the Company decided to perform through the external appraiser an updated valuation as of June 30, 2020 using the Residual value approach which set (after a deduction of 35%) to a value of app. EUR 32.6 million (2019 - EUR 41 million). In light of the increase in the uncertainty that the SPA will eventually be executed and/or that the transaction will be completed as well as the increase uncertainty in the real estate due to the expected impact of COVID 19 and the decrease in the value of the asset based on the valuation prepared by an external appraiser using the Residual value approach (as detailed above), the management assumed a 10% write off in the value of the property compared to the value as of December 31, 2019, resulted in value of the proposed deal of EUR 21.6 million (2019 - EUR 24 million). As mentioned in Note 5(3)(f) to the annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019, when the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 75% interest in the Project SPV it assumed a commitment to construct the PAB at its own costs for the benefit of the Romanian Government. The management believes that the current level of provision is an appropriate estimation in the current circumstances. Consequently, the statement of financial position includes a provision in the amount of EUR 15.8 million in respect of the construction of the PAB (December 31, 2019: EUR 15.8 million). Accordingly, the trading property is presented at gross basis in the amount of EUR 37.4 million (2019 - EUR 39.8 million (the value of the Project)) and provision for PAB liability in the amount of EUR 15.8 million (2019 - EUR 15.8 million). NOTE 6:- EQUITY ACCOUNTED INVESTEES Material events and updates during the reporting period: (1) Bangalore: In March, 2008 Elbit Plaza India Real Estate Holdings Limited (a subsidiary held by the Company (50%) and Elbit Imaging ltd.(50%)) ("EPI") entered into a share subscription and framework agreement (the "Agreement"), with a third-party local developer (the "Partner"), and a wholly owned Indian subsidiary of EPI which was designated for this purpose ("SPV"), to acquire together with the Partner, through the SPV, up to 440 acres of land in Bangalore, India (the "Project") in certain phases as set forth in the Agreement. NOTE 6:- EQUITY ACCOUNTED INVESTEES (Cont.) As a result of the failure of the Partner to complete the transaction under the Agreement and in accordance with the provisions thereto, EPI has 100% control over the SPV and the partner is no longer entitled to receive the 50% shareholding. As of June 30, 2020, the Partner has surrendered sale deeds to the SPV for approximately 54 acres (the "Plot"). In addition, under the Agreement the Partner has also been granted with 10% undivided interest in the Plot and have also signed a Joint Development Agreement with the SPV in respect of the Plot. On December 2, 2015 EPI has signed an agreement to sell 100% of its interest in the SPV to the Partner (the "Sale Agreement"). The total consideration upon completion of the transaction was INR 321 crores (approximately EUR 40.2 million) which should have been paid no later than September 30, 2016 ("Long Stop Date"). On November 15, 2016, the Partner informed EPI that it will not be able to execute the advance payments. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has received from the escrow agent the sale deeds in respect of additional 8.7 acres (the "Additional Property") which has been mortgaged by the Partner in favor of the SPV in order to secure the completion of the transaction on the Long Stop Date. The Additional Property has not yet been registered in favor of the SPV for cost-benefit reasons. In addition, as per the Sale Agreement, the Company took actions in order to get full separation from the Partner with respect to the Plot and specifically the execution of the sale deed with respect of the 10% undivided interest, all as agreed in the Sale Agreement. In light of the above, and after lengthy negotiations between the parties, new understandings were formulated and the parties signed a revised agreement that substantially altered the outline of the original transaction (and this agreement was amended several more times, the last of which in April 2019), and concluded that: (i) the closing date for the transaction will be extended to November 2019, and may be further extended to August 2020 (the "Closing Date"). It should be clarified that the postponement of the closing date to November 2019 and August 2020 was subject to receipt of payments as agreed in the Sale Agreement and subject to mutually agreed payment terms; and (ii) the consideration was increased to INR 356 crores (approximately EUR 42 million) (Plaza part approximately EUR 21 million) (the "Consideration"). On January 10, 2020, the Company announced that a notice has been issued to the Partner to file its response in the insolvency proceedings initiated for the recovery of the amounts due. As regards the criminal cases filed for dishonor of the cheques which were given as security for payment of certain installments, the court has issued arrest warrants and the local police is on the lookout for the accused persons. As of today, the Partner filed its response asking for the insolvency proceedings to be dismissed. The case is to come up for arguments before the National Company Law Tribunal, Bangalore, India. As of this date, the Partner paid to EPI approximately EUR 10.3 million (INR 87.00 crores) (Company part INR 43.5 crores (approximately EUR 5.1 million)) out of a total consideration of INR 356 crores (approximately EUR 42 million) (Plaza part INR 178 crores (approximately EUR 21 million) the SPV should have been received as of the said date as per the Agreement. NOTE 6:- EQUITY ACCOUNTED INVESTEES (Cont.) Environmental update on Bangalore project - India: On May 4, 2016, the National Green Tribunal ("NGT"), an Indian governmental tribunal established for dealing with cases relating to the environment, passed general directions with respect to areas that should be treated as "no construction zones" due to its proximity to water reservoirs and water drains ("Order"). The restrictions in respect of the "no construction zone" are applicable to all construction projects. The government of Karnataka had been directed to incorporate the above conditions in respect of all construction projects in the city of Bangalore including the Company's project which is adjacent to the Varthur Lake and have several storm-water crossing it. An appeal was filed before the Supreme Court of India against the Order. On March 2019, the Supreme Court has set aside the Order thereby restoring the position as it existed before the Order was passed by NGT. The Company announced on July 1, 2020, that the proposed revised Master Plan under which it was proposed to change the zoning of most of the plot from residential to open space/ parks/ recreation zone has been withdrawn by the Government of Karnataka. Net realizable value measurement of Bangalore project As for June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Group measured the net realizable value of the project. The net realizable value of the project based on the comparable Method is INR 219 crores (EUR 25.9 million); 2019 - INR 206 crores (EUR 25.8 million). Due to increase in value of the plot EPI recognized a reversal of write off in the amount of app. EUR 0.1 million (the Company’s part (50%) app. EUR 0.05 million). The evaluation method Value in INR million Value in EUR million Comparable Method 2,194 25.9 DCF Method 2,073 24.5 In light of the Company's intention to sell the Plot to the Partner or to any other third party (see above), and in light of the uncertainty as to the completion of the transaction with the Partner, the Company believes that the comparable method reliably reflects the net realizable value of the Plot and therefore the Property is included in the financial statements at the value of EUR 12.96 million (the Company’s part 50%). The plot in Bangalore is still in land stage and therefore the value of the plot has been derived using land comparable method. The valuation of the property reflects the interest that the partner still holds in the plot (10% as described above), the size of the plot and the non-contiguous land parcel and the petition/application filed with NCLT against the partner. NOTE 6:- EQUITY ACCOUNTED INVESTEES (Cont.) The following main parameters have been considered to arrive at the land value of the subject property by land sale comparison method: Parameter Premium (Discount) Applicable land value (INR Mn/acre) 93 Applicable FSI value (INR/Sq. ft) 1,099 Total land value (INR Mn) 5,061 Discount on account of Revised Master Plan 2015 Buffer zone norms (%) -25% Land Value after discount for RMP 2015 Buffer zone Norms (INR Mn /acre) 70 Presence of minority shareholder -20% Applicable Land Value after discount (INR Mn /acre) 56 Total land value (INR Mn) 3,037 Discount on account of the petition/application filed with NCLT -15% Total land value (INR Mn) 2,581 Marketability discount on account of COVID-19 situation -15% Total land value (INR Mn) 2,194 2) Chennai: In December 2007, EPI executed agreements for the establishment of a special purpose vehicle ("Chennai Project SPV") together with a local developer in Chennai ("Local Partner"). The Chennai Project SPV acquired 74.73 acres of land situated in the Sipcot Hi-Tech Park in Siruseri District in Chennai ("Property"). On September 16, 2015, EPI has obtained a backstop commitment from the Local Partner for the purchase of its 80% shareholding in the Chennai SPV by January 15, 2016, for a net consideration of approximately INR 161.7 Crores (EUR 21.1 million). Since the Local Partner had breached its commitment, EPI exercised its rights and acquired the Local Partner's 20% holdings in the Chennai Project SPV. Accordingly, as of the balance sheet date EPI has 100% of the equity and voting rights in the Chennai Project SPV. However, there are two lawsuits (being filed in India) by plaintiffs claiming to be legal heirs of the landowners of the Property, who wish to recognize them as owners of 2.5% the Property. During 2016, Chennai Project SPV has signed a Joint Development Agreement with a local developer ("Developer" and "JDA", respectively) with respect to the Property. Under the terms of the JDA, the Chennai Project SPV granted the property development rights to the Developer" who shall bear full responsibility for all of the project costs and liabilities, as well as for the marketing of the scheme. The JDA also stipulates specific project milestones, timelines and minimum sale prices.

Following receiving the Settlement Amount (see Note 7(f)), and in light of the potential negative impact of the Covid-19 on the possibility to receive future proceeds from the Company's plots in India, the Company decided to increase the amount to be paid to the bondholders on July 1, 2020, from EUR 250,000 to EUR 500,000. i. Impact of the Covid-19 During the first half of 2020, the Covid-19 global health and economic crisis was severely affecting business, leading to supply chain disruptions, cash flow problems and, more generally, a sharp drop in activity. Many countries are taking significant steps in trying to prevent the spread of the virus, such as restrictions on civilian movements, gatherings, border closures and the like. The Company monitors the consequences of the event and the actions taken on countries in which it operates and assesses the risks and exposures arising from these consequences. At this stage, the impact of the effect of the COVID 19 included a write off of its assets (refer to Note 5(3) and Notes 6(1) and 6(2) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). In addition, the COVID 19 effect caused Elbit Plaza India Real Estate Holdings Limited (a subsidiary held by the Company (50%) and Elbit Imaging Ltd. (50%)) ("EPI") to postpone the closing of the sale of 100% stake in the SPV which owns 74.7 acre plot in Chennai (subsidiary of EPI) (refer to Note 6(2) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). The COVID 19 also partly delayed the legal procedures against the purchaser of the SPV which owns the plot in Bangalore India (refer to Note 6(1) in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020). Other than the above mentioned, at this stage, the Company is not able to estimate the full future impact of COVID 19. However, the Company assumes the demand of interested buyers is expected to be smaller, which can have a material impact on the ability of the Company to complete the sale of the plots it owns.
