The rent is subject to annual indexation from January 2003, based on a figure of SEK 8,029,000 (£535,267) to reflect any increase in the Swedish equivalent of the Retail Price Index. Executive Chairman, Sten Mortstedt, said: 'This is the third pre-let at Frasaren 11, which brings pre-lettings at this building up to just over 10,000 sq m (107,640 sq ft) representing 28% of its net lettable area.
