Ruric considering exercising first-right-of-refusal on Fontanka 57
Ruric is considering exercising its first-right-of-refusal on Fontanka 57 from Scorpio. To secure a fast and efficient completion of the building to a letable state, full financing is of great importance. Larger bondholders such as Alecta, Proventus who earlier blocked Fontanka 57 deal, have presently contacted Ruric with the proposal to allow additional borrowings to partially finance the first-right-of-refusal. However Ruric believes that the suggested level of borrowings is not enough and therefore requested from the bondholders the approval to raise bigger amount which may allow financing both the acquisition and development of Fontanka 57.
The first-right-of-refusal from Scorpio expires August 12th.
