FRANKFURT, Aug 3 (Reuters) - German real estate group LEG
Immobilien LEGn.DE said on Wednesday it would not exercise an
option to buy further shares in property investor BCP from rival
Adler ADJ.DE , which was pursuing the transaction to reduce its
debt load.
Adler said in May it expected LEG to go ahead with buying
its remaining 63% stake in BCP, which owns about 12,000
apartments in Germany, before the deadline in
September. urn:newsml:reuters.com:*:nL5N2WV2OQ
