RATIONALE FOR THE TRANSACTIONS The acquisitions are consistent with Rebosis` strategy of acquiring large quality properties with a strong sovereign or blue chip underpin. The property portfolio is dominated by national government with an element of blue chip corporate with Standard Bank as a major tenant in one of the buildings.
