ATRIUM SECURES PRE-LETTING TO LEROY MERLIN AT ATRIUM FELICITY
DEVELOPMENT

-Lublin shopping centre now 71% pre-let-

Jersey, 20 September 2012. Atrium European Real Estate Limited
("Atrium" or the "Company") (VSE/Euronext: ATRS), one of the leading
real estate companies focused on shopping centre investment,
management and development in Central and Eastern Europe, announces
that it has secured a 12,500 sqm pre-let to DIY store operator Leroy
Merlin at its 75,000 sqm Atrium Felicity shopping centre development
in Lublin, Poland.

Following this deal, and the pre-sale in June of a 19,700 sqm
hypermarket at the site to a major international food retailer,
Atrium Felicity is now 71% pre- let, with over a year to go before
the centre is due to open. Other retail brands which have pre-let
space at the centre include H&M, Reserved, Mohito, House, and
Intersport, as well as Zara, Zara Home, Bershka, Stradivarius, Pull &
Bear, Oysho and Massimo Dutti from the Inditex Group.

Having recently appointed an international contractor to undertake
the development works, construction has now begun on site, with
completion of Atrium Felicity expected by the end of 2013.

Commenting, Rachel Lavine, CEO of Atrium said: "To have achieved
pre-lets of over 70% at Atrium Felicity at this stage of development
and to have attracted yet another strong international anchor brand
in Leroy Merlin, is a great achievement that underlines the strength
of the location and attractiveness of the space to tenants. Atrium
Felicity will provide a wide-ranging offer from every day grocery
shopping at the hyper-market through to high fashion and DIY,
appealing to a large number of consumers, and we are confident that
it will become a thriving retail hub for the region."
