SECURE PROPERTY SIGNS C. 27,500 SQ FT OF LETTING AT TERMINAL BROVARY LOGISTICS PARK, KIEV

Secure Property Development & Investment Limited, formerly Aisi Realty Public Limited, a South Eastern European focused property and investment company, today announces that it has secured a circa 27,500 sq ft letting at its main operating asset, Terminal Brovary Logistics Park ("the Park"), in Kiev, Ukraine, bringing occupancy at the Park to over 85%.

Alba Ukraine, a wholesale pharmaceutical distributor and subsidiary of Laona Investments Limited, has signed circa 27,500 sq ft of space on a three year lease. The letting is in line with the Company's plans to improve capital returns at Terminal Brovary. Since the introduction of the new internal management in August 2011, occupancy at the Park has increased by 340% and become cash flow positive. The letting also builds on a number of successful initiatives which have been implemented as part of a wider strategy to turn the business around, improve the Company's financial strength, and reposition it for future growth.

Situated in the Ukrainian capital of Kiev, Terminal Brovary comprises circa 525,000 sq ft of Class A warehouse and associated office space and is well-located, adjacent to the junction of the main Kyiv - Moscow highway and the Borispil road.

Lambros Anagnostopoulos, Chief Executive Officer of Secure Property, commented: 

"The new letting contract with Alba Ukraine further demonstrates our aim to improve capital returns at Terminal Brovary. Alba Ukraine's decision to install its operations at the Park underlines the Company's ability to create value and improve income, while bringing Terminal Brovary a step closer to being fully occupied."
