TRADING STATEMENT

In terms of the JSE Listings Requirements, property entities are required to publish a trading statement as soon as they
are satisfied that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that the financial results for the period to be reported on next
will differ by at least 15% from the financial results for the previous corresponding period.

Shareholders are advised that Fortress anticipates that the combined dividend for the A ordinary shares and B ordinary
shares for the year ended 30 June 2015 will be between 19% and 21% higher than for the year ended 30 June 2014.

Consequently, the dividend per Fortress B ordinary share for the year ended 30 June 2015 will be between 68.34 cents
and 71.56 cents, being between 57,9% and 65,3% higher than the 43.28 cents distribution per B linked unit for the
previous comparable financial year.

The dividend per Fortress B ordinary share for the six months ended 30 June 2015 will be between 37.13 cents and
40.35 cents, being between 52,2% and 65,4% higher than the 24.39 cents distribution per B linked unit for the previous
comparable six month period.

Fortress A shareholders are referred to the Fortress Memorandum of Incorporation in which it states that the Fortress A
distribution of 58,81 cents per A linked unit for the six months ended 30 June 2014 will escalate by the lower of 5% and
the most recently available Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) figure. Accordingly, the CPI figure is 4,37% and the Fortress
A dividend growth will therefore be limited to the lower CPI percentage.

The financial results on which this trading statement is based have not been reviewed or reported on by Fortress’
auditors. The financial results for the year ended 30 June 2015 will be published on or about 30 July 2015.
