ACQUISITION OF A PORTFOLIO OF LETTING ENTERPRISES AND PROPERTIES


1.    Introduction

      Shareholders are advised that Rebosis has, subject to certain conditions precedent, concluded an agreement
      (“the agreement”) with Tupelo Properties Proprietary Limited (“the seller”) for the acquisition of a letting
      enterprise conducted by the seller in respect of and including certain properties, further details of which are set
      out below (collectively, “the properties”) (“the acquisition”).

2.    Rationale

      Whilst the company’s strategy is to remain a retail focused fund, the acquisition is in line with the company’s
      strategy of acquiring high quality yield enhancing government offices. The acquisition will increase the
      company’s portfolio by an additional 35 347m2 at an initial yield of 9.61%.

3.    Details of the properties

      Details of the properties, including property name, geographical location, sector, gross lettable area (“GLA”),
      weighted average rental per square metre, the purchase consideration attributed to each of the properties and the
      estimated net income attributable to each of the properties, are as follows:

               case may be, of the conditions precedent set out below (“the effective date”).

      4.2.     In terms of the agreement, Rebosis will purchase the properties from the seller for a total purchase
               consideration of R495 000 000 (“the purchase consideration”).

      4.3.     The effective date of the acquisition, in respect of all net rental income derived from the properties is

      4.4.     Should the transfer be effected during the course of a month, the late transfer fee will be prorated for
               the portion of that month.

      4.5.     Rebosis has the right to deduct the late transfer fee from the purchase consideration on the transfer date.

               4.7.1.        70% of the purchase consideration will be payable in cash on the transfer date; and

                             volume weighted average “clean” traded price at which Rebosis consideration shares
                             trade on the JSE over the 30 day trading period immediately prior to the transfer date.

      4.8.     The allotment and issue of the Rebosis consideration shares will take place within 2 business days of
               written confirmation from the conveyancer that transfer of the properties has taken place.

      4.9.     The non-cash component of the purchase consideration will be secured by the issue of an irrevocable
               letter of allotment in favour of the seller within 30 business days from the effective date. The seller will
               be obliged to lock-in the Rebosis consideration shares for a minimum period of 12 months and the
               seller agrees that Rebosis will have an option to purchase the Rebosis consideration shares at market
               price immediately after month 12 for a period of 7 days.
