1.   INTRODUCTION

     SA Corporate unitholders (“Unitholders”) are referred to the announcement published by SA Corporate on SENS

     their approval to certain amendments ("Amendments") to the trust deed (the “Deed”) of SA Corporate Real
     Estate Trust Scheme, in terms of which:

     1.1. the existing service charge arrangement in respect of the Fund will be changed from a monthly charge
          based on a value of 0.4% of the aggregate market capitalisation of the Fund plus borrowings, to a monthly
          charge equal to the actual operating costs incurred by the Manager in administering the Fund as well as the
          scrapping of the initial charge of 5% on the value of any new participatory interests ("units") issued against
          the payment by the Fund to the Manager of a consideration of R185 million excluding VAT (“Amendment 1”);
         and

     1.2. as a separate amendment, the borrowing limits of the Fund will be increased from 30% to 60% of the value
          of its underlying assets (“Amendment 2”),

          which amendments will be incorporated in a 6th supplemental deed to the Deed.
