transformation in some of the largest technology companies in the world and will provide valuable
insights as we continue to develop the use of technology in our business parks and our operating
platform, as well as with helping us optimise our impact on society. We are confident that Deborah
will be a valuable addition to our Board.
James has made an outstanding contribution to the Board during his tenure which started in 2012
when the company was a £60 million AIM-listed company. He has acted as Senior Independent
Director, Interim Board Chair, chair of the Remuneration Committee and as a Member of the Audit
and Nomination Committees. We thank him for his incredible support to the Company and the
management team over the last 12 years."

NOTES TO EDITORS
About Sirius Real Estate
Sirius is a property company listed on the main and premium market of the London Stock Exchange
and the main board of the JSE. It is a leading owner and operator of branded business and industrial
parks providing conventional space and flexible workspace in Germany and the U.K. As of 30
September 2023, the Group's portfolio comprised 139 assets let to 9,248 tenants with a total book
value of over €2 billion, generating a total annualised rent roll of €184.2 million. Sirius also holds a
35% stake in Titanium, its €350+ million German-focused joint venture with clients of AXA IM Alts.
The Company's strategy centres on acquiring business parks at attractive yields and integrating them
into its network of sites - both under the Sirius and BizSpace names and alongside a range of branded
products. The business then seeks to reconfigure and upgrade existing and vacant space to appeal to
the local market via intensive asset management and investment and may then choose to refinance
or dispose of assets selectively once they meet maturity, to release capital for new investment. This
active approach allows the Company to generate attractive returns for shareholders through growing
rental income, improving cost recoveries and capital values, and enhancing returns through securing
efficient financing terms.
