* Debenture interest is calculated on the capital at a variable rate equal to 99.9% of the net profit
of the company before taxation, but after adjusting for extraordinary income and expenditure, capital
gains and losses, and capital expenditure.


** Headline earnings have been presented in accordance with IAS 33. The linked unit structure of the
group whereby every shareholder is a debenture holder, coupled with the terms of the Debenture Trust
Deed which states that 99.9% of profits are attributable to debenture holders, results in the benefits
of improved trading which would be ordinarily attributable to shareholders being expensed in the income
statement as a fair value adjustment to debentures and debenture interest. This results in no profit being
attributable to ordinary shareholders.

*** Linked unit debentures are included in the net asset value and net tangible asset value calculation.

COMMENTARY

Introduction

Fairvest's objective is to build a retail focused property fund weighted toward non-metropolitan shopping centres
and including convenience, community and regional shopping centres servicing the lower LSM market in high-growth
nodes close to commuter networks.

Fairvest's application to the JSE for Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") status was approved on 3 July 2013. 
The conversion to a REIT is effective from 1 July 2013.

2013 marked the start of the 'new' Fairvest with the transfer of 18 properties during the first quarter of
2013 taking the property portfolio from 10 smaller assets to a portfolio of 28 assets valued at R770.3 million.
Strategies as communicated previously to linked unitholders are starting to crystallise as is evident from
our results.

Acquisitions and associated capital raising activities

Linked unitholders are referred to the company's circular, including revised listings particulars ("RLP"),
issued on 5 October 2012 regarding the SA Corporate Real Estate Acquisition, the Put Option Acquisition and
the Isolenu Acquisition. Under the vendor consideration placement undertaken to part fund these acquisitions, the
company limited the capital raised to R250 million, raised through the issue of 203 252 033 new ordinary linked
units at R1.23 per ordinary linked unit. These units were issued and listed on the JSE on 3 December 2012.

Linked unitholders are referred to the SENS announcements regarding the Sebokeng Plaza and Nyanga Junction
acquisitions. These acquisitions were funded via a vendor consideration placement, raising R99 million, issuing
70 714 286 linked units at R1.40 per ordinary linked unit.
 
The Sebokeng Plaza, Nyanga Junction, Score Nyanga and Pick n Pay Vereeniging assets have transferred since we
reported on our interim results in March 2013, bringing the total GLA for the portfolio to 100 578 m2.

Review of results

Fairvest board of directors are pleased to announce a distribution of 6.00 cents per linked unit for the six months
ended 30 June 2013 and further to the distribution of 3.71 cents declared for the five months to 30 November 2012
and 0.86 cents for the one month to 31 December 2012.

As per guidance provided at our previous results presentation, the distribution achieved for the six months ended
30 June 2013 of 6.00 cents per linked unit is in line with the company's circular, including revised listing
particulars ("RLP") issued on 5 October 2012. The forecast distribution was achieved in spite of delays in 
transfers in assets in the SA Corporate portfolio. This was achieved through favourable renewals and conservative
estimates in our initial forecasting assisted by the further acquisitions made during the period.

During the period under review the company successfully completed the new CHEP head office development and the
significant redevelopment of Westville Junction. These assets are secured by long leases with national tenants,
which significantly adds to the quality of the portfolio and tenant base.

Of the 9.0% vacant space, 2.2% is represented by assets currently being redeveloped and 3.0% by a vacant warehouse
acquired as part of the SA Corporate portfolio acquisition, bringing the effective vacancy percentage to 3.8%.  
We expect the vacancy percentage to decrease as the redevelopments are completed with some positive letting
after year end.

The total property portfolio increased from R131.3 million in June 2012 to R770.3 million in June 2013 as a
result of the 18 new assets acquired.

Fairvest sold the remainder of the Australian and South African listed property shares during the period under
review resulting in a realised gain of R0.98 million. The funds were utilised in the redevelopment completed
during the period.

Prospects

As reported in our circular issued in October 2012, updated for the updated actual capital structure, the forecast
distribution for 12 months to 30 June 2014 of 14.06 cents per linked unit remains achievable. These forecasts are
the responsibility of the board of Fairvest and have not been reviewed or reported on by the auditors.

We will continue to focus on growing the portfolio through strategic value-enhancing acquisitions, coupled with
a focus on improving the quality of the portfolio through the acquisition of larger centres that dominate in the
area in which they are located.

Looking forward, growth in distributions will be delivered through the implementation of strong operational controls,
tenant optimisation, rental escalations and the reduction of vacancies.

Interest distributions and dividends

Interest on debentures has been calculated in terms of the Debenture Trust Deed. The final interest distribution of
6.0 cents per linked unit is payable to linked unitholders registered in the books of the company at the close of
business on Friday, 11 October 2013. No dividend has been declared for the period in respect of the linked units.

Last date to trade linked units cum interest payment    Friday, 4 October 2013
Linked units commence trading ex interest payment       Monday, 7 October 2013 
Record date                                             Friday, 11 October 2013

both days inclusive.

Directorate

KR Moloko was appointed as an independent non-executive director on 1 February 2013.

Subsequent events

Linked unitholders are referred to the company's SENS announcement dated 29 August 2013 advising to exercise caution
when trading in the company's linked units as the company is in advanced negotiations regarding the acquisition of a
portfolio of further properties. The directors of Fairvest are not aware of any other material matter or circumstance
arising between 30 June 2013 and this report which may materially affect the financial position of the group or the
results of its operations.
 
Appreciation

We extend our appreciation to our directors, management and staff for their valued efforts as well as our advisers
and linked unitholders for their continuing belief in and support of Fairvest.
