Ablon Group Limited ("Ablon" or "the Company"), a leading real estate owner and developer in Central and Eastern Europe, announces that the Company will complete the Hotel development at its Europeum project in March 2010, and the complex will open as a Marriott operated hotel shortly after.

 


In December 2007, Ablon signed a 30-year management contract with Marriott to operate the hotel complex. The mixed-use Europeum development includes a four-star hotel which will have 235 rooms, 5,500 square metres of retail space and 229 parking spaces. The total cost of the project is estimated to be EUR40 million.

 


It was indicated in Ablon's interim results for the period ended June 30, 2009, that a revaluation of a loan Ablon took in relation to the Europeum project, which has a 71% LTV covenant, is not required until one year after its maturity. Ablon would like to clarify this by stating that the revaluation relating to this loan may take place upon the lender's request in March 2010, two years from the time it was first drawn down.
