                                                                            4 014                                 3 455

* Includes the effect of investment adviser fees.

The forecasts incorporate, inter alia, the following material assumptions:
1.    Contracted revenue is based on existing lease agreements.
2.    Uncontracted revenue comprises 0.9% and 9.9% of gross rental revenue for the year ending 31 August 2014 and
      the year ending 30 August 2015 respectively. On expiry of the leases during the forecast periods, a void period of
      between 3 to 6 months has been assumed in calculating the uncontracted rental revenue.
3.    All existing lease agreements are valid.
4.    The purchase consideration for the Transaction is approximately GBP 42.6 million (including acquisition costs),
      reflecting a valuation of the Properties of GBP 161.2 million. The group assumed GBP 121.7 million of third party
      interest-bearing borrowings as part of the Transaction. These interest-bearing borrowings incur interest at a
      weighted average fixed rate of 3.12% p.a.
5.    GBP 29.2 million of the purchase consideration was funded in cash, of which GBP 16.8 million was raised through
      a placing of 40 million new Redefine International P.L.C. (“RI PLC”) shares as announced on 23 August 2013.
      RIN acquired 20 million of the new RI PLC shares taking its aggregate shareholding in RI PLC to 64.05% from 65.46%.
      The balance of the purchase consideration of GBP 12.9 million is funded from the issue of 32.2 million new RI PLC
      shares to CMC Capital Limited.
6.    No fair value adjustments to the Properties have been provided for in respect of the year ending 30 August 2014 or
      the year ending 30 August 2015.
7.    In terms of the investment adviser agreement with Redefine International Property Managers Limited (“the
      investment adviser”), RI PLC will pay the investment adviser an annual fee of approximately GBP 806 314, being
      a fee equivalent to 0.5% of the gross value of the Properties.
8.    RI PLC will pay the property manager annual fees of approximately GBP 456 485 (of which GBP103 965 are non-
      recoverable), for all property management services, being a fee equivalent to 4.9% (1.1% non-recoverable) of gross
      monthly income collected.
9.    Debenture interest will be paid to linked unitholders in accordance with the provisions of RIN’s debenture trust
      deed.
10. A GBP:EUR exchange rate of GBP1.00:EUR1.172 has been assumed to apply.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE TRANSACTION

The unaudited pro forma financial effects of the Transaction on RIN’s net asset value and tangible net asset value per
linked unit, based on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 28 February 2013, are not

CAUTIONARY

Linked unitholders are referred to the cautionary announcement dated 14 August 2013 and are advised that following the
