RESILIENT PROPERTY INCOME FUND LIMITED
(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)
(Registration number 2002/016851/06)
JSE share code: RES ISIN: ZAE000043642
(Approved as a REIT by the JSE)
(“Resilient” or “the company”)


RIGHTS OFFER DECLARATION ANNOUNCEMENT


Introduction

Resilient intends undertaking a rights offer to Resilient linked unitholders in order to raise approximately
R1 billion (“the rights offer”).

The proceeds from the rights offer are expected to be used to finance the company’s pipeline of acquisitions and
developments as well as for strategic opportunities.

Salient terms of the rights offer

Resilient linked unitholders will be offered a total of 19 230 769 Resilient linked units (“new Resilient linked units”
or “rights offer linked units”) in the ratio of 6.55582 rights offer linked units for every 100 linked units held by them
on Friday, 2 May 2014.

The subscription price for rights offer linked units is R52 per rights offer linked unit.

The JSE has granted listings for the letters of allocation and the rights offer linked units as follows:

-     letters of allocation in respect of 19 230 769 new Resilient linked units will be listed from the commencement
      of business on Thursday, 24 April 2014 to close of business on Friday, 9 May 2014, both days inclusive, under
      the JSE code: RESN and ISIN: ZAE000189932; and

-     19 230 769 new Resilient linked units will be listed with effect from the commencement of business on
      Monday, 12 May 2014.

Resilient has not received any irrevocable undertakings from existing linked unitholders to participate in the rights
offer.

The rights offer will not be underwritten and is not conditional on a minimum subscription.

Excess linked units

Resilient linked unitholders will have the right to apply for any excess rights offer linked units not taken up by other
linked unitholders subject to such rights being transferable upon renunciation of the letters of allocation, and any such
excess linked units will be attributed equitably, taking cognisance of the number of linked units and rights held by the
unitholder just prior to such allocation, including those taken up as a result of the rights offer, and the number of
excess rights applied for by such unitholder.

If you are a certificated linked unitholder and you wish to apply for excess rights offer linked units you must complete
the form of instruction attached to the rights offer circular (defined below) in accordance with the instructions
contained therein. If you are a dematerialised linked holder and you wish to apply for excess rights offer linked units
you must instruct your CSDP or broker as to the number of excess rights offer linked units for which you wish to
apply.

Pro forma financial effects of the rights offer

The table below sets out the pro forma financial effects of the rights offer based on Resilient’s published reviewed
interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2013. These financial effects are the responsibility of the
directors of Resilient and they have been prepared for illustrative purposes only, in order to provide information about
the financial position and results of Resilient assuming the rights offer had been implemented on 31 December 2013
for purposes of the pro forma consolidated statement of financial position and on 1 July 2013 for purposes of the pro
forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income, using the accounting policies as at 31 December 2013.

The pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income and pro forma consolidated statement of financial
position of the Resilient group for the six months ended 31 December 2013 and the explanatory notes thereto will be
included in the rights offer circular.

Due to its nature, the pro forma financial information (collectively, the pro forma financial effects, pro forma
consolidated statement of comprehensive income and pro forma consolidated statement of financial position) may not
give a fair reflection of Resilient’s financial position or results of operations subsequent to the rights offer.

The table below reflects the pro forma financial effects of the rights offer on a Resilient linked unitholder:

Notes:
1.    The figures set out in the “Resilient before the rights offer” column have been extracted, without adjustment, from the reviewed interim results of Resilient
      for the six months ended 31 December 2013.
2.    The rights issue will raise approximately R1 billion at an issue price of R52 per rights offer linked unit.
3.    Estimated once-off transaction costs of R1.512 million are assumed to be incurred by Resilient and debited against share premium.
4.    Although the proceeds of the rights offer are expected to be used to finance the company’s pipeline of acquisitions and developments as well as for strategic
      opportunities, there are no firm commitments at the date of this announcement to deploy the proceeds of the rights offer. Accordingly, the cash received is
      assumed to reduce the interest-bearing borrowings.
5.    There are no other post-balance sheet events which need to be adjusted in the pro forma financial information.


Foreign linked unitholders

Introduction

Foreign linked unitholders may be affected by the rights offer, having regard to prevailing laws in their relevant
jurisdictions. Such foreign linked unitholders should inform themselves about and observe any applicable legal
requirements of such jurisdiction in relation to all aspects of the rights offer circular (defined below) that may affect
them, including the rights offer. It is the responsibility of each foreign linked unitholder to satisfy himself as to the
full observation of the laws and regulatory requirements of the relevant foreign jurisdiction in connection with the
rights offer, including the obtaining of any governmental, exchange or other consents or the making of any filing
which may be required, the compliance with other necessary formalities and the payment of any issue, transfer or
other taxes or other requisite payments due in such jurisdiction. The rights offer is governed by the laws of South
Africa and is subject to applicable laws and regulations, including the Exchange Control Regulations.

Affected foreign linked unitholders

Any Resilient linked unitholder who is in doubt as to his position with respect to the rights offer in any jurisdiction,
including, without limitation, his tax status, should consult an appropriate independent professional adviser in the
relevant jurisdiction without delay. Foreign linked unitholders are reminded that they may dispose of their Resilient
linked units on or prior to the last day to trade, in which case they will not participate in the rights offer.
Foreign linked unitholders accordingly must take their own advice on whether they are entitled, after the rights offer,
to continue beneficially to hold any Resilient linked units distributed to them and take the appropriate action in
accordance with that advice.

Note to U.S. linked unitholders

The rights offer linked units will not be registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under
the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any U.S. state securities laws. Neither the SEC nor any U.S. federal
or state securities commission has registered, approved or disapproved the rights offer linked units or passed comment
or opinion upon the accuracy or adequacy of the rights offer circular (defined below). Any representation to the
contrary is a criminal offence in the U.S.

Resilient linked unitholders who are citizens or residents of the U.S. are advised that the rights offer linked units have
not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Circular

Further details of the rights offer will be set out in the circular to Resilient linked unitholders (the “rights offer
circular”) which is expected to be posted to certificated linked unitholders on Friday, 25 April 2014 and to
dematerialised linked unitholders on Tuesday, 6 May 2014. The rights offer circular will be made available on the
company’s website www.resilient.co.za from Friday, 25 April 2014.
