COMMENTARY
Introduction
Rebosis owns a high growth defensive portfolio of 12 properties. The company's primary
objective is to grow its portfolio and distributions by investing in high-quality retail and
commercial properties yielding secure capital and income returns for unitholders.

Financial results
Rebosis has declared a distribution of 42,50 cents per linked unit for the six months ended
31 August 2012 which, together with the interim distribution of 43,0 cents for the six months
ended 29 February 2012, results in a total distribution of 85,50 cents per linked unit for the
year. This represents an effective increase of 12,1% compared to the annualised distribution
of 22,25 cents per linked unit for the period from listing on 17 May 2011 to 31 August 2011.

The total distribution is in line with the forecast included in the announcements published on
25 April 2012.

The total return for the year of 31,5% comprises an income return of 8,7% and a capital
return of 22,8%.

The comparative results of the company for the period 1 December 2010, the date on
which Rebosis acquired the initial portfolio of six properties, to 31 August 2011, include the
results of the company for the period prior to its listing on the JSE Limited ("JSE"). Pursuant
to its listing, the portfolio of assets, the gearing against the portfolio, the asset management
arrangements and the capital structure were substantially restructured. The results from
listing to 31 August 2011, which are more relevant to Rebosis unitholders, have been reflected
separately.

Property portfolio
At 31 August 2012, the portfolio, valued at R4,54 billion, consists of 12 properties with a total
GLA of 295 716 m². The portfolio, which is located in Gauteng, the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-
Natal and North West Provinces, comprises 52% shopping centres and 48% office buildings
(by value). The retail portfolio comprises three exceptional quality shopping malls delivering
secure, escalating income streams underpinned by strong anchor and national tenants.

The office portfolio consists of nine buildings which are well-located in nodes attractive to
Government tenants. These are mainly let to the National Department of Public Works,
under long leases providing for average escalations of 8,3%. The office portfolio represents a
sovereign underpin to a substantial portion of the earnings and shields it from private sector
risks such as tenant insolvency and default.

Changes in fair values
The properties, which were valued by independent valuer Quadrant Properties (Proprietary)
Limited, increased in value by R167,6 million at 31 August 2012.

Acquisitions
The company took transfer of the Bloed Street Mall, a 25 760 m² retail centre on 25 November
2011, at a cost of R341,5 million and an initial yield of 9,6%. Four office buildings, totalling
50 837 m², were acquired between 29 June 2012 and 31 July 2012 for R519,0 million at an
initial yield of 10,8%.

Letting activity
At the reporting date, vacancies for the total portfolio were 3,7%. Taking into account signed
leases commencing after the reporting date, vacancies are 2,0%.

During the year, the company let 9 940 m² of new space and leases in respect of 4 772 m²
were renewed.

Borrowings
At 31 August 2012, Rebosis' net borrowings of R1,684 billion equate to a gearing ratio
of 37,1%. The average interest rate for the year under review was 8,72% and interest rates are
fixed in respect of 79% of borrowings for an average period of 2,8 years.

To ensure effective cash management, surplus cash is invested against revolving debt facilities.

Company secretary
Mande Ndema, an employee of the property management company, has been appointed
company secretary of Rebosis in place of Probity Business Services (Proprietary) Limited
which resigns effective 1 November 2012.

Prospects
With its first full year of trading successfully completed, Rebosis is well-positioned for future
growth and acquisition opportunities aligned with its current investment profile. Vacancies
have reduced, arrears have been contained, and demand for premises remains strong.

The shopping centres have performed ahead of national retail sales growth, with turnover
growth for the period of 15,0%. The board anticipates that the distribution for the year ending
31 August 2013 will be between 92 cents and 95 cents per linked unit. This is based on the
assumption that there will be no change in current trading conditions of the existing portfolio.
This forecast has not been reviewed or reported on by the company's auditors.

Debenture interest distribution
Distribution No. 3 of 42,50 cents per linked unit for the six months ended 31 August 2012
will be paid to linked unitholders in accordance with the abbreviated timetable set out below:

Last day to trade cum distribution	                                 Friday, 9 November 2012
Linked units trade ex distribution	                                Monday, 12 November 2012
Record date	                                                        Friday, 16 November 2012
Payment date	                                                        Monday, 19 November 2012

Linked unitholders may not dematerialise or rematerialise their linked units between Monday,
12 November 2012 and Friday, 16 November 2012, both days included.

Basis of preparation
These abridged financial statements have been derived from a complete set of the annual
financial statements on which the auditors have expressed an unqualified audit opinion
which is available for inspection at the company's registered office. These results have been
prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), IAS 34:
Interim Financial Reporting, the AC 500 series issued by the Accounting Practices Board or its
successor, JSE Listings Requirements and the requirements of the South African Companies
Act, 2008. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these results are consistent
with those applied in the preparation of the financial statements for the year ending 31 August
2011. These financial results have been compiled by the financial director, JA Finn, CA(SA).

While the company has complied with IFRS and JSE Listings Requirements by disclosing
earnings and headline earnings per share, the directors are of the view that earnings per
share is not meaningful to investors as the shares are traded as part of a linked unit and all
earnings are distributed by way of debenture interest. Further, headline earnings include fair
value adjustments for financial instruments and the straight-line rental income accrual that do
not affect distributable earnings. Distributable earnings and the distribution per linked unit, as
disclosed above, are more meaningful to investors.
