Resolve's Investment Management Software Consolidates
     Information From Multiple Sources to Provide Centralized
   Analysis of Key Metrics and Real-Time Reports and Dashboards

NEEDHAM, Mass., March 10, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KBS Realty Advisors,
one of the nation's leading commercial real estate investment advisors,
selected Resolve Technology to provide software solutions for
information access, analysis and reporting in support of the management
of investment performance and risk assessment.

KBS was ranked #3 in a June 2009 survey of the top commercial real
estate buyers in the United States conducted by Commercial Property
News. According to the survey, KBS had $6.5 billion in assets under
management.

"The new software is designed to accept data from a variety of
different sources," commented David Snyder, CFO of KBS Capital Advisors
and the KBS family of REITs . "This includes transactional, financial
analysis, occupancy and risk concentration data. By eliminating
spreadsheet-based aggregation and reporting, we believe the Resolve
software platform will improve the productivity and timeliness of our
reporting."

"We selected the Resolve solutions to provide us with a 'single version
of the truth' that aggregates financial analysis and accounting data
into a single data warehouse," said Carol Shumway, vice president of
REIT reporting and compliance at KBS. "We also expect Resolve to
improve benchmarking and trend analysis of key metrics, providing
real-time self-serve access to dashboards and reports."

KBS has contracted to implement Resolve's Request and Portfolio
Maximizer solutions. Request is a business intelligence solution built
to address the information needs of real estate investment managers. By
consolidating real estate investment data from disparate sources,
Request helps investment managers reduce their reliance on
spreadsheets, providing a standardized and extendable foundation for
real estate investment reporting and analysis. Users can easily access
the Request reports and dashboards through a Web-based interface and
utilize dynamic charting and dashboards for real-time analysis of the
information, minimizing the reliance on specialized resources and
reducing the time lag involved in conventional report creation.

KBS intends to use Request to streamline its reporting processes,
including the analysis of variances, tenant exposure and accounts
receivable. KBS will also be able to incorporate its ARGUS Software
forecasting data into the Request reports, leveraging Resolve's
partnership with ARGUS. Portfolio Maximizer will be used to help KBS
investment managers develop financial models and create multiple
what-if scenarios to assess the impact of investment decisions.
Portfolio Maximizer can be used to calculate waterfall distributions
and fees, model and analyze debt obligations, consolidate historical
and pro-forma financial and property data, and automatically generate
investment performance and risk metrics such as IRR, NCREIF Yields,
LTV, and DSCR.

"We are proud that a forward-thinking company such as KBS has selected
Resolve as a partner," said Resolve CEO Eric Forman. "We look forward
to working with the KBS team to enable its managers and decision-makers
to operate with greater insight, confidence and speed."
