Gazit Globe's Austrian subsidiary Atrium European Real Estate Limited, will launch its dual listing on the Euronext Amsterdam Exchange on August 19 under the ticker symbol ATRS.

"A second listing on a major international exchange was one of the key targets we set when we took over the management of Atrium and so I am very pleased that we are now able to publish our prospectus and announce a date for the Company's shares to start trading on Euronext Amsterdam," said Rachel Lavine, chief executive officer of Atrium. "We believe that the listing on Euronext Amsterdam will bring significant benefits to the company. As an internationally recognized and traded exchange, it opens Atrium up to a far wider universe of potential investors which we believe should result in increased analyst coverage, greater liquidity in Atrium's shares and enhanced pricing over the longer term." 

Atrium, one of the leading real estate companies focused on shopping centre investment, management and development in Central and Eastern Europe, on Tuesday published a prospectus relating to the listing and trading of its ordinary shares on Euronext Amsterdam and the Vienna Stock Exchange, which has been approved by the Financial Austrian Market Authority and deposited with Oesterreichische Kontrollbank Aktiengesellschaft in Vienna. The prospectus is available at Atrium's website, www.aere.com.

Atrium will be presenting its second quarter and half year results for the period to 30 June 2009 on 21 August 2009.
