(“Arrowhead” or “the company”)
ACQUISITION OF VARIOUS RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES
A. ACQUISITION OF JIKA PROPERTIES PROPRIETARY LIMITED
1. Introduction
Linked unitholders are advised that Arrowhead Residential Limited (“Arrowhead Residential” or the
“purchaser”), being a wholly owned subsidiary of the company has, subject to certain conditions
precedent, concluded an agreement (the “agreement”) with Citiq Proprietary Limited (“Citiq”) and
Amber Falcon Properties 185 Proprietary Limited (“Amber Falcon”) (each a “seller” and jointly the
“sellers”) for the acquisition of all the shares in (“sold shares”) and claims against (“sold claims”)
(collectively, the “sold equity”) Jika Properties Proprietary Limited (“Jika”) (the “Jika II
acquisition”). Jika owns a portfolio of residential properties comprising immovable properties (the
“Jika II properties”) and property companies (the “subsidiaries”) which own the properties
(collectively, the “Jika II property portfolio”).
2. Rationale
As announced on SENS on 16 October 2013, Arrowhead Residential acquired a portfolio of 29
residential properties and property owning companies from Jika (“Jika I acquisition”). The Jika II
acquisition will be complimentary to the portfolio of properties already owned by Arrowhead
Residential and will be distribution enhancing acquisitions.
The Jika II acquisition provides Arrowhead with an opportunity to further grow and diversify its
property portfolio. Listed residential property comprises over 15% of the total listed property market
in developed economies such as the United States of America. In South Africa, it is under 2% and
Arrowhead believes that there exists an opportunity for further growth in this sector of the real estate
market.
3. Details of the Jika II property portfolio
Details of the Jika II property portfolio, including property name, geographical location, gross lettable
area (“GLA”), weighted average rental per square metre and the purchase considerations and
estimated net income attributed to the Jika II properties, all of which are residential, are as follows:

yield, provided that the amount payable to Arrowhead Residential pursuant to the aforesaid
financial guarantee in respect of each guarantee period shall not exceed 2,5% of the purchase
