PLAZACNTR (PLZ): UPDATE RE 2012 DISPOSAL OF SHOPPING CENTRES IN THE US - raport 44
UNI - EN REPORT No44/2017
Plaza Centers N.V. (“Plaza”, “Company”) provides the following update regarding the sale of 47 shopping centres in the US first announced on 11 January 2012 and which completed on 21 June 2012. The Company has recently been made aware that commission paid to an agent in connection with the disposal may have benefited a former director of the Company, and it is probable therefore that those arrangements should have been classified as a related party transaction under the Listing Rules.
At the time of the disposal, it appears that the Company was not aware that there was any potential related party interest with respect to the commission arrangements.
The Company is currently investigating this matter and seeking appropriate advice as to whether any retrospective disclosures or other actions may be required under the Listing Rules.
Further announcements will be made as appropriate.
