Ruric confirms indicative offer for three properties

Ruric confirms that a non-legally binding bid has been received for the
properties Oscar, Magnus and Gustaf from Storm Real Estate.

The offer is considered to be too low and will not be accepted.

The objective with the current reorganization is to keep the cash generating
properties, and not to sell at such a distressed price. This is for the benefit
for all investors in Ruric, both creditors and share holders. Storm has not yet
paid according to schedule for the property (Grifon House) that they purchased
from Ruric in April 2009. The payment was due late 2009. There are on-going
discussions regarding the reasons for this late payment and Ruric hope to
receive the outstanding sum in the very near future and before arbitration steps
are required. Russian Real Estate Investment Company AB (publ)
