Delta shareholders are hereby advised that the Company (“Seller”) has entered into an agreement (“Agreement”) with Zeder
Trading Proprietary Limited (“Purchaser”) to dispose of its property situated at 96 First Avenue, Greyville, Durban, together
with all buildings and improvements thereon, as more commonly known as “Standard Bank Greyville” (the “Property”), for a
cash consideration of R44.0 million (“Disposal Consideration”).
2. Rationale and use of proceeds

The net proceeds (net of commission) will be utilised by the Company to reduce debt and the Loan to Value (LTV) by 0.2%
from 58.2% to 58.0% and to reduce vacancy levels by 0.4% from 33.9% (31 August 2022) to 33.5%.
