to a gearing ratio of 28%.

Set out below are extracts from the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2012.
Arrowhead’s integrated report for the year ended 30 September 2012, containing a notice of annual
general meeting which is to be held at the company’s offices at 10h00 on 30 January 2013 and
incorporating the audited annual financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2012, has
been posted to linked unitholders today and is available in hard copy from Arrowhead’s offices
at 2nd floor, 18 Melrose Boulevard, Melrose Arch, or in electronic form at the company’s website,
www.arrowheadproperties.co.za.

Nature of business

Arrowhead is a property loan stock company holding a diverse portfolio of properties in secondary
locations throughout South Africa. Its main focus is on paying growing income returns to its
investors. This will be achieved through escalating rentals in terms of leases with tenants,
satisfactory renewal of leases with existing tenants, renting of vacant space within the property
portfolio, managing and reducing, where possible, costs associated with the property portfolio and
by acquiring revenue enhancing properties.

The results for the year ended 30 September 2012 is Arrowhead’s maiden set of results as a listed
company and the performance of the company in this period has been satisfactory.

Commentary

Revenue is inclusive of rentals and utility recoveries and is ahead of the forecast in the
prelisting statement mainly due to a change in the administration of electricity during the year.

A third party had administered Arrowhead’s electricity management and collection, for its own
account, since the acquisition of the property portfolio until the end of February 2012. From
1 March 2012 Arrowhead’s property managers, JHI, assumed the electricity administration for
Arrowhead’s account.

Included within revenue is an increased electricity recovery due to the change in March 2012 to
the internal electricity administration, in terms of which Arrowhead, through JHI, now recovers
electricity usage directly from its tenants. This has also resulted in higher property expenditure.
Excluding the effects of the electricity recoveries, revenue would be only just ahead of forecast
notwithstanding the inclusion of rental income arising from acquisitions for a portion of the
year. This is largely due to two underperforming buildings in the Western Cape, de Goede Hoop and
Parc du Bel.

The de Goede Hoop building is currently unoccupied and the Parc du Bel building was tenanted by
two government departments and a Spur franchisee. One government department has subsequently
vacated its premises.

The ratio of actual property expenses to income at 36% (inclusive of recoveries) is considered
satisfactory when compared to forecast after taking into consideration the change in the process
of electricity administration as set out under the revenue above.

If the additional electricity recovery and expenditure were excluded the actual expense ratio would
compare favourably with forecast.

Finance charges are lower than originally forecast since the drawdown on loan facilities took place
in the latter part of November whereas the forecast assumed the drawdown in September. This resulted
in higher distributable income accruing to Redefine for the months of October and November 2011.
The effective interest rate for the year was 8,13 %, after taking into account the later drawdown and
deposits of excess funds into the access facility, whilst the weighted interest rate on the
company’s borrowings was 8,97%.

Finance income includes an amount of R24 million in respect of antecedent interest, resulting from the
issuing of new Arrowhead units to fund acquisitions during the financial period and in respect of which
income had not been earned for a full period.

The company has implemented the acquisition of R532 million of investment properties at year end, and
implemented an additional R153 million of investment after year end. Investment properties have been
revalued by R230 million in aggregate.

During the year 168 830 102 linked units were issued to fund the acquisition of investment properties
and 1 732 064 were issued to the executive directors, as set out in the pre-listing statement dated


{A404/00113020.DOC/ANNOUNCE/SJ}
30 September 2011. Included in the 170 562 166 linked units in issue at 30 September 2012 was the
8 528 000 units issued pursuant to the general issue of units for cash on 28 September 2012 at an
effective price of R10.60 per combined A and B linked unit.

PROSPECTS

It is expected that Arrowhead will achieve total distributions for the 2013 financial year of R1,11
for one A plus one B unit, an increase of 10 cents (10%) on the annualised 2012 distributable income.
All the growth will be attributable to the B units whose income will increase by 25% whereas the A unit
sees no growth. The auditors have not reported on the forecast upon which the distribution is based.
