The tranches have been
approved for issuance between July 2010 and the end of 2016 as part of a long-term strategic financing plan for the Company.Ran Shtarkman, President and CEO of Plaza Centers, said:?The completion of our first offering of bonds in Poland reflects the continued confidence in our business shown by institutional investors in the region.
