                Invista Real Estate Investment Management Holdings plc 
                                    AGM Statement 
Douglas Ferrans, Executive Chairman of Invista Real Estate Investment Management 
 Holdings plc ("Invista"), will make the following comments at today's Annual 
 General Meeting, to be held at the offices of Canaccord Genuity Hawkpoint Limited, 
 41 Lothbury, London EC2R 7AE at 2.00pm. 
 "Following the loss of the Lloyds Banking Group investment management mandates, 
 Invista announced on 12 October 2010 that the interests of both clients and 
 shareholders of Invista would be best served through an orderly realisation 
 of value from Invista's assets, including its asset management business, with 
 the proceeds of such realisations returned to Invista Shareholders in due course. 
 Since that time, Invista has sold a number of balance sheet assets and has undertaken 
 a simplification and downsizing of the business. GBP48 million of capital (18 
 pence per Ordinary Share) was returned to Invista Shareholders in June 2011. 
 The Board has also considered whether it might be in the interests of Invista 
 Shareholders for the Board to consider an offer for Invista as a whole, at a 
 level that represents fair value for Invista Shareholders, given the reducing 
 cash balances and the significant challenges and risks of continuing to hold 
 and manage Invista's remaining assets if acceptable prices are not forthcoming 
 through a realisation process. 
 Having considered all the options, the Board has concluded that the Palmer Capital 
 Offer set out in the Scheme document being posted today to Shareholders delivers 
 the best overall outcome for Invista's Shareholders."
