ATRIUM SHARES ADMITTED TO TRADING ON EURONEXT AMSTERDAM

Jersey, 19 August 2009. Atrium European Real Estate Limited
("Atrium" or the "Company") (ATX / Euronext: ATRS), one of the
leading real estate companies focused on shopping centre
investment, management and development in Central and Eastern
Europe is pleased to announce that its shares will commence trading
on Euronext Amsterdam for the first time at market opening this
morning. At the same time Atrium shares will begin trading on the
Vienna Stock Exchange, where the Company has a dual listing,
following the exchange of Austrian depositary certificates
("ADCs") for Atrium shares after market close on the 18 August 2009.
Atrium's ISIN is JE00B3DCF752.

Based on yesterday's closing price of ADCs of EUR3.82 on the
Vienna Stock Exchange, and the 227,199,287 Atrium shares in issue,
the Company will have a market capitalisation of EUR868 million
when dealings commence.

Atrium invests in, manages and develops supermarket anchored
shopping centres in Central and Eastern Europe. It has a
portfolio of 152 income producing investment assets, spread
across eight countries in CEE with a total gross lettable area
of 1.1 million sqm as well as a number of development projects
across the region. Gross rental income from investment properties
totalled EUR134 million for the year ended 31 December 2008. The
Company's properties, anchored by supermarkets selling food and other
everyday necessities, are amongst the most resilient asset
classes.

The listing follows the publication of its prospectus relating to
the listing of its ordinary shares on the Vienna Stock Exchange and
Euronext Amsterdam on 11 August 2009 and the exchange of ADCs
for ordinary shares as publicly announced on 12 August 2009. A
copy of the prospectus and further details on the Company can be
found at www.aere.com.

Commenting on the listing, Rachel Lavine, chief executive of Atrium,
said: "Today is an important day for Atrium as the listing on
Euronext represents a significant step forward in the evolution of
the Company. A second listing on a major international exchange was
set as a key objective when we took over the management of the
Company just over twelve months ago and we are proud that our hard
work in this respect has now come to fruition.

"As we have said before, there are many benefits to the
Company and its shareholders from the new listing. As an
internationally recognised and traded exchange, it opens Atrium up
to a far wider universe of potential investors which we believe
should result in broader analyst coverage, encourage greater

liquidity in Atrium's shares and therefore enhance pricing over the longer
term.

"We will now continue to concentrate our efforts in making Atrium the leading
owner and developer of supermarket anchored shopping centres in Central and
Eastern Europe."
