This acquisition represents Plaza's sixth development scheme in Romania since it acquired its first project in November 2006. The Company's other schemes in Romania include its developments at Slatina, Iasi, Timisoara, Miercurea Ciuc and, most significantly, its landmark Casa Radio scheme in the heart of Bucharest, which comprises more than 500,000 sqm of built area including shopping, leisure, office and conference facilities.

Commenting on the deal, Ran Shtarkman, CEO, Plaza Centers N.V. said: 'Honedoara, with a population of 80,000 people, is an expanding city which is benefiting from a significant level of new investment. We see this project as an opportunity to offer a unique shopping and entertainment experience for people in the region, who previously have not had access to such high quality facilities. We believe that we can attract some major local and international brands to the area, with demand for prime retail sites strong across all parts of Romania. 'Plaza has a proven ability to create significant value for shareholders from this type of development project, by offering a unique product on time and within budget. We continue to look for further opportunities in Romania and across the rest of our target market.'
