of the full portfolio was pre-agreed at the time of the initial
closing. This transaction consists of € 281 million of gross asset
value and with the transaction VGP will generate € 203 million in
net cash proceeds.
Following the completion of this second closing
of the RED Joint Venture, the RED Joint Venture’s
property portfolio will consist of 19 completed
buildings representing around 785,000 m² of lettable area and has a
100% occupancy rate.
