Aviva has agreed to give the owner of four regional shopping centres more time to fix a breached loan covenant after a takeover approach for the landlord was abandoned.
The FTSE 100 lender has given RDI REIT, the shopping centre owner, until October to either sell the centres or restructure the debt facility.
The £144.7m outstanding loan, which runs until 2042, relates to shopping centres in Wigan, Northampton, Warrington and Seaham, Co Durham.
