UPDATE ON PIVOTAL TRANSACTION AND TRADING STATEMENT


UPDATE ON PIVOTAL TRANSACTION

Shareholders are referred to the joint announcements released by the Company and The Pivotal
Fund Limited (“Pivotal”) on SENS and on the website of the Stock Exchange of Mauritius Limited
(“SEM”) on 17 November 2015 and 7 December 2015, advising shareholders of the proposed
acquisition by Delta Africa of certain Kenyan and Nigerian property assets from Pivotal
(constituting a category 1 transaction), as well as various other matters, as more fully described
in those announcements (collectively, “Pivotal Transaction”).

The Company is still in the process of finalising the circular regarding the Pivotal Transaction,
incorporating listing particulars, which will be distributed to shareholders in due course.

Shareholders will be advised in due course of the salient dates and times relating to the Pivotal
Transaction and the general meeting to be convened in order to allow shareholders to consider
and vote on the resolutions required in respect of the Pivotal Transaction.

Shareholders are referred to the Company’s announcement dated 20 January 2016 and are
reminded that Delta is currently trading under cautionary in relation to the Pivotal Transaction.

VOLUNTARY TRADING STATEMENT

Given that this is the first voluntary trading statement published by Delta Africa since its transfer
to the main board of the JSE and its amendment of its listing status on the JSE to a primary listing
and for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to Section 3.4(b)(vii) of the JSE Listings Requirements,
and given that Delta Africa is a property company that targets a total return of both distribution
and net asset value growth, the board of directors has decided that it is appropriate to announce
trading statements using distribution per share as the relevant measurement criteria. Accordingly,
the Company has adopted this measurement criteria for trading statements.

Accordingly, based on the aforementioned, Delta Africa hereby advises that a reasonable degree
of certainty exists that the distribution per share for the six month period ending 31 December
2015 will be US$ 6.17 cents per share, being an increase of 32.8% compared to the
US$ 4.65 cents per share reported for the six month period ending 30 June 2015 and a decrease
of 7.1%, compared to the US$ 6.64 cents per share reported for the six month period ending 31
December 2014.

The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed and
reported on by Delta Africa’s auditors.

Delta Africa has its primary listings on both the Official Market of the SEM and the JSE Limited.
