33.08980 rights units for every 100 linked units held
(“rights offer”). The rights offer price is based on the
volume weighted average traded price on the JSE Limited

units, once issued, will rank pari passu in all respects
with the existing issued VPIF units.

the purchase consideration of the transaction set out above

The table below sets out the unaudited and unreviewed pro
forma financial effects of the rights offer on net asset value
