         income growth and tenant demand, to the Property Portfolio of Vividend.

Notes:
          a)       The Purchase Yield attributable to Linked Unitholders assumes a 40% Loan to Value (LTV) gearing
                   limit with an annual interest cost of 7.8%, which is the current indicative cost available to the
                   Company from its local banking partners.
          b)       The weighted average purchase yield attributable to Linked Unitholders, assuming all Properties are
                   acquired and assuming a 40% LTV, is 10.36%.
          c)       The Net Income generated by each Property, and therefore the Purchase Yield attributable to each
                   Property, is underpinned by a two year Net Income Guarantee.
          d)       National and anchor tenants with low levels of default risk (‘A Type’ Tenants) constitute a) 58% of
                   GLA and b) 46% of the Revenue.
          e)       Save for costs associated with the transfer of the Properties into the name of Vividend, which are
                   estimated at R2,100,000, no expenditure will be incurred by the Company in connection with the
                   Acquisitions.
          f)       The cost of each property is considered to be its fair market value, as determined by the Directors of
                   the Company. The directors of the Company are not independent and are not registered as
                   professional valuers or as professional associate valuers in terms of the Property Valuers Profession
                   Act, No 47 of 2000.
