AF Gruppen has entered into an agreement with the Ministry of Justice and Public
Security c/o the Directorate for Civil Protection and Emergency Planning (DSB)
to buy 50% of the property at Trondheimsveien 529. 

The property is being acquired jointly with BORI Utbygging AS, who will own the
other 50%. The site measures 17.4 acres and is located in Grorud. It is in close
proximity to Lillomarka with views across parts of the Grorud Valley.

To date, Trondheimsveien 529 has been used by the Oslo and Akershus civil
defence district. There are now plans being prepared for an integrated area with
up to 300 homes, open squares and green spaces. The site has been set aside for
residential housing in the current municipal plan and is subject to planning
permission prior to any further development. The agreed price for the property
is NOK 118 million on a 100% ownership basis. It is expected that the contract
will be signed before the end of Q4 2020 and that the transaction will take
place in Q1 2021.

"We are pleased to realise yet another site purchase in an area where we see
great potential for development. The site benefits from an attractive location
in a priority growth area of Oslo," says Ida Aall Gram, EVP Property and
HR/Communication at AF Gruppen.
