TransAtlantic sells property to Tjörns Sparbank

TransAtlantic sells property to Tjörns Sparbank

The decision of moving TransAtlantic’s headquarters from Skärhamn to Gothenburg,
Sweden, was made last Spring, in 2011. The transfer is now finalized and
TransAtlantic’s former house property in Skärhamn is sold. New owners are Tjörns
Sparbank.

- We have for quite some time been looking for bigger space for our business,
says Magnus Flyckt, CEO at Tjörns Sparbank in Skärhamn. When the opportunity of
acquiring this property turned up we saw our chance. It matches our needs from
many perspectives so we are very delighted.

The property will belong to Tjörns Sparbank from March 15, 2012 and after some
reconstruction they count on being able to welcoming their customers to their
new address later this year.

- This feels like an excellent solution, says Folke Patriksson, one of the
founders of TransAtlantic and currently Vice Chairman in TransAtlantic’s Board.
The house will now also be available for the public and we wish Tjörns Sparbank
the best of luck with their new premises.

The purchase price for the mortgage free property amounted to 30 MSEK.
DTZ has been real estate advisors.
