The portfolio consists of 200 buildings totaling 2.7 million square meters (29 million square feet) of industrial space.

The security agent was Deutsche Pfandbriefbank AG, while Clifford Chance Prague LLP and Eastdil Secured advised CTP in the transaction. The underwriting banks were advised by White &amp; Case s.r.o. (legal services), KPMG \u010cesk\u00e1 Republika s.r.o. (tax\/financial), Arcadis Czech Republic s.r.o. (technical advisors) and CBRE s.r.o. and JLL s.r.o.
