       The financial information below sets out the illustrative financial effects of the transaction to be received by a Rebosis
       shareholder using an independent analyst’s projected distribution for the year ending 31 August 2017. The financial
       information does not constitute guidance and is provided for illustrative purposes only and is the responsibility of the
       directors of Rebosis. This financial information has not been reviewed or reported on by Rebosis’ auditors.

       and (ii) implementation of the transaction and a capital raise. Both of these scenarios have been prepared to reconcile and
       confirm the estimated maximum overall dilution impact to Rebosis shareholders as has been disclosed in the 23 May 2016
       announcement on SENS and in the investor presentation referred to in part 1. These financial effects are not pro forma
       financial effects and are provided for illustrative purposes only.

              Notes and assumptions
              1.   Independent analyst’s forecast dividend per share for the year ending 31 August 2017, adjusted by management to include the
                   net income not included in the base dividend per share for the acquisition of the 11 Diagonal Street property as announced on
                   SENS on 8 July 2015.
              2.   Assumes an interest saving on a cross currency swap to the value of R500 million to be concluded.
              3.   Assumes the transaction is implemented with commercial effect from 1 September 2016 for an aggregate amount of R6 007.2
                   billion funded as follows:
                   3.1.     R4 270.7 million of the aggregate consideration is assumed to be funded through interest-bearing borrowings bearing
                            interest at an estimated effective rate of 9.5% per annum ;
                   3.2.     R1 036.5 million of the aggregate consideration will be funded by way of a claw-back offer of 91 725 445 shares at a
                            issue price per Rebosis share of R11.30091; and
                   3.3.     the balance of R700.0 million will be deferred and settled in cash in two tranches of R350.0 million each with the first
                            tranche to be funded by way of a claw-back offer immediately after the record date for the Rebosis income distribution
                            for the six month period ended 31 August 2017 and the second tranche to be funded by way of a claw-back offer after
                            the record date for the Rebosis income distribution for the six month period ended 31 August 2018. In both instances,
                            pricing of the claw-back offer will equate to the 30 day volume weighted average price of Rebosis shares immediately
                            before each respective claw-back offer is launched.

       3.2.   Scenario 2 – implementation of the transaction and a capital raise

                                                                           Adjustment                                               After the

              Notes and assumptions
              1.   Independent analyst’s forecast dividend per share for the year ending 31 August 2017, adjusted by management to include the
                   net income not included in the base dividend per share for the acquisition of the 11 Diagonal Street property as announced on

                   billion funded as follows:
                   3.1.     R4 270.7 million of the aggregate consideration is assumed to be funded through interest-bearing borrowings bearing

                            issue price per Rebosis share of R11.30091; and
                   3.3.     the balance of R700.0 million will be deferred and settled in cash in two tranches of R350.0 million each with the first
                            tranche to be funded by way of a claw-back offer immediately after the record date for the Rebosis income distribution

              4.   Assumes the placement of 115 942 029 Rebosis shares to invited investors at an issue price of R10.35 per Rebosis share
                   equating to R1.2 billion in value before capital raising expenses.

       In consideration of this proposed equity raise prior to the Billion acquisition, Rebosis has also received interest in and has
       the option of disposing of certain office assets that are not considered core to the Rebosis portfolio as an alternate means of
       raising capital that would avoid or reduce the requirement for the equity raise.

       Notwithstanding the implementation of the transaction, management’s previous distribution guidance for the year ending
       31 August 2016, being distribution growth of between 8% and 10% per Rebosis share, remains on track to be achieved.
