Atrium European Real Estate Limited
("Atrium")

DECLARATION OF SPECIAL DIVIDEND

Ad hoc announcement - Jersey, 15 September 2016. Atrium European Real
Estate Limited (VSE/ Euronext: ATRS) (the "Company" and together with
its subsidiaries, the "Group"), a leading owner, operator and
developer of shopping centres and retail real estate in Central and
Eastern Europe, is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors
has approved the payment of a special dividend (the "Special
Dividend") of 14 euro cents per ordinary share representing a return
of an aggregate EUR52.7 million to shareholders ("Shareholders") of
the Company.

The payment of the Special Dividend reflects the Board's continuing
confidence in the prospects of the Group, and, following the sale of
non-core assets in the year to date 2016, the Company's strong cash
position and low leverage. Following the payment of the Special
Dividend the Company will still have sufficient cash and financial
flexibility to complete its current anticipated redevelopment and
asset improvement programme and to make selective acquisitions,
should they arise.

The Special Dividend will be paid on 30 September 2016 to
Shareholders on the register as at 23 September 2016, with an
ex-dividend date of 22 September 2016. The final payments of the 2016
regular dividend are scheduled to be paid in September and December
this year, as approved in November 2015. As usual, the terms of the
regular annual dividend for 2017 will be reviewed by the Board in
November 2016 and announced with the Company's third quarter results.
