Independent Auditor's Report on the

Abbreviated Annual Accounts

(Translation from the original in Spanish. In the event of discrepancy, the Spanish-language version prevails.)

To the sole shareholder of Vandor Real Estate, SOCIMI, S.A. (Sociedad Unipersonal)

Opinion___________________________________________________________________

We have audited the abbreviated annual accounts of Vandor Real Estate SOCIMI, S.A.U. (the "Company"), which comprise the abbreviated balance sheet at 31 December 2022, the abbreviated income statement for the 12-day period then ended, and abbreviated notes.

In our opinion, the accompanying abbreviated annual accounts give a true and fair view, in all material respects, of the equity and financial position of the Company at 31 December 2022, and of its financial performance for the 12-day period then ended in accordance with the applicable financial reporting framework (specified in note 2 to the abbreviated annual accounts) and, in particular, with the accounting principles and criteria set forth therein.

Basis for Opinion_______________________________________________________

We conducted our audit in accordance with prevailing legislation regulating the audit of accounts in Spain. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Abbreviated Annual Accounts section of our report.

We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements, including those regarding independence, that are relevant to our audit of the abbreviated annual accounts pursuant to the legislation regulating the audit of accounts in Spain. We have not provided any non-audit services, nor have any situations or circumstances arisen which, under the aforementioned regulations, have affected the required independence such that this has been compromised.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Most Relevant Aspects of the Audit____________________________________

The most relevant aspects of the audit are those that, in our professional judgement, have been considered as the most significant risks of material misstatement in the audit of the abbreviated annual accounts of the current period. These risks were addressed in the context of our audit of the abbreviated annual accounts as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these risks.

Valuation of investment property (see notes 2 d), 3 d) and 6)

The Company holds a significant amount of its assets in investment property corresponding to real estate property that are earmarked for lease to obtain revenues. The Company initially measures assets classified as investment property at cost of acquisition or production. Subsequent to initial measurement, the Company assesses investment property annually for indications of impairment, for the purpose of determining whether its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of real estate property is determined by an appraisal performed by an independent expert. In this regard, this amount is calculated by applying valuation techniques which often require the exercise of judgement by the independent expert and the Directors, as well as the use of assumptions and estimates. Due to the high level of judgement; the uncertainty associated with these estimates; the significant additions of investment property during the year; and the significance of the carrying amount of investment property at the reporting date; the analysis of the additions for the year, as well as the review of their recoverable amount have been considered a relevant aspect of the audit.

Our audit procedures included understanding the process for recognising and measuring investment property, as well as assessing the methodology and assumptions applied in the preparation of the appraisals used in this process, for which purpose we involved our valuation specialists. We also performed tests of detail on a sample of additions for the year and of the costs associated with these additions, so as to determine whether they have been recognised correctly. We also assessed whether the disclosures in the abbreviated annual accounts meet the requirements of the financial reporting framework applicable to the Company.

Directors' Responsibility for the Abbreviated Annual

Accounts______________________________________________________________

The Directors are responsible for the preparation of the accompanying abbreviated annual accounts in such a way that they give a true and fair view of the equity, financial position and financial performance of the Company in accordance with the financial reporting framework applicable to the entity in Spain, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of abbreviated annual accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the abbreviated annual accounts, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Abbreviated Annual Accounts______________________________________________________

3

(Translation from the original in Spanish. In the event of discrepancy, the Spanish-language version prevails.)

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the abbreviated annual accounts as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with prevailing legislation regulating the audit of accounts in Spain will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these abbreviated annual accounts.

As part of an audit in accordance with prevailing legislation regulating the audit of accounts in Spain, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the abbreviated annual accounts, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Directors.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the abbreviated annual accounts or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the abbreviated annual accounts, including the disclosures, and whether the abbreviated annual accounts represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves a true and fair view.

(Translation from the original in Spanish. In the event of discrepancy, the Spanish-language version prevails.)

We communicate with the Directors of the entity regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

From the significant risks communicated to the Directors of Vandor Real Estate, SOCIMI, S.A.U., we determine those that were of most significance in the audit of the abbreviated annual accounts of the current period and which are therefore the most significant risks.

We describe these risks in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter.
