UPDATE REGARDING A) THE BRONZE DOOR ACQUISITION B) ACQUISITION OF NEW PROPERTIES C) RENEWAL OF
CAUTIONARY
A) THE BRONZE DOOR ACQUISTION
Vividend Linked Unitholders are referred to the SENS announcement dated Monday, 1 July 2013 (“the
Announcement”) in respect of the Company entering into acquisition agreements relating to the acquisition of
properties and associated letting enterprises (“the Bronze Door Properties”) from Bronze Door Properties (Pty)
Ltd (“the Bronze Door Acquisition”). Linked Unitholders are hereby advised that the conditions precedent
requiring satisfactory conclusions to the due diligence investigations undertaken on the Bronze Door Properties
have not been fulfilled and accordingly the Bronze Door Properties will no longer be acquired by Vividend.
B) ACQUISITION OF NEW PROPERTIES
1. THE BEKA INDUSTRIAL PARKS ACQUISITION
Linked Unitholders of the Company are hereby advised that the Company has entered into an agreement with
Candela Property Holdings (Pty) Ltd, Seeho (Pty) Ltd and Erf 15980 Bloemfontein (Pty) Ltd (“the Vendors”) to
acquire the properties and associated letting enterprises commonly known as BEKA Industrial Parks (“the BEKA
Industrial Parks Properties”) situated in Clayville Gauteng, Penral Park Durban and Hilton Township
Bloemfontein (“the BEKA Industrial Parks Acquisition”).
The effective date of the BEKA Industrial Parks Acquisition shall be the date of transfer of the BEKA Industrial
Parks Properties into the name of the Company, which, subject to fulfilment of the conditions precedent, is
expected on or about 1 September 2013.
2. RATIONALE FOR THE ACQUISITION
The BEKA Industrial Parks Acquisition is consistent with Vividend’s strategy of identifying and acquiring
properties that have free cash flow yields that provide adequate value enhancement to Linked Unitholders from
the effective date of their acquisition. The BEKA Industrial Parks Acquisition provides further quality, stability,
longevity and growth potential to the Company’s earnings by introducing a well-established, single tenanted
property in Gauteng with a low risk, long-term triple net lease into the Company’s lease profile, while at the
same time providing tenantable vacancies in well located areas in KwaZulu Natal and the Free State at a
marginal cost to the Company.
3. PURCHASE CONSIDERATION
The purchase consideration applicable to the BEKA Industrial Parks Acquisition is R145,000,000, payable in cash
against transfer of the BEKA Industrial Parks Properties into the name of the Company. The Company will fund
the purchase consideration through a combination of debt financing and new equity raised from new and/or
existing Linked Unitholders via a vendor consideration placement.
