Commentary
Profile
Liberty Two Degrees ("L2D") is a portfolio established under the Liberty Two Degrees Scheme ("the Scheme") in terms of the Collective
Investment Schemes Control Act, 2002 (Act No. 45 of 2002) ("CISCA"), as amended, to afford investors growth in income and capital by
investing at fair prices in a balanced spread of immovable properties and related assets as permitted by the Trust Deed. L2D is required
by CISCA to be structured as a JSE-listed portfolio within a trust with an external independent trustee and an external management
company. The Scheme was registered by the Registrar of Collective Investment Schemes on 28 October 2016 and is managed by STANLIB
REIT Fund Managers Proprietary Limited (RF) ("the Manager") and the appointed external independent trustee is FirstRand Bank Limited
acting through its RMB Trustee Services Division. The Manager has also been appointed as the asset manager of Liberty Group Limited
("LGL")'s interest in the Liberty Property Portfolio ("LPP"). L2D acquired its undivided shares (and other interests) in the LPP effective
1 December 2016 and commenced its business operations with effect from that date.
L2D currently has no interest-bearing debt and will be able to take on debt (in line with its trust deed and considering market norms) to fund
future acquisitions, as appropriate.
L2D is listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange ("JSE") with a market capitalisation of R8.6 billion at 30 June 2017 (FY2016: R9.5 billion)
and is included in the South African Listed Property index ("SAPY").
At 30 June 2017, L2D's defensive and 100% local direct property portfolio was valued at R6.14 billion (FY2016: R6.06 billion) and there is
R2.9 billion (FY2016: R2.8 billion) of cash invested of which R2.5 billion has been committed post balance sheet date.
Financial results
L2D's Board has declared a distribution of 30.00 cents per unit for the six months ended 30 June 2017.
Operating costs were 30.3% (FY2016: 30.8%) of contractual rental income and reflects the robust management of costs in tough economic
conditions.
Changes in fair values
L2D's property portfolio was valued by external independent registered valuers on an open market value basis at 30 June 2017 resulting
in a net increase in value of R41 million. In total investment properties increased by R84 million with the balance as a result of capitalised
development and maintenance capital expenditure. In terms of IAS 40 and IFRS 13, L2D's investment properties are measured at fair value
through profit or loss using valuation inputs which are categorised as level 3 on the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between
levels 1, 2 and 3 during the period.
Property portfolio
The portfolio vacancy rate decreased during the period by 1.3% to 3.3% (FY2016: 4.6%).
Leases covering 34 166m2 were renewed during the period at an average rental increase of 5.4%. A further 15 633m2 in new tenant deals
were concluded across the portfolio during the period.
Arrears increased to 5.33% (FY2016: 4.76%) of the collectable book debt. The marginal increase in arrears is principally a result of the current
economic environment.

L2D's portfolio strategy
L2D's strategy remains anchored on:
- An iconic retail focused real estate portfolio with a mix of defensive anchor assets and supplemented by growth from selected
developments;
- Focusing on enhancing growth opportunities in South Africa;
- Maintaining industry leading operational metrics and prudent balance sheet management to support future returns; and
- Evolution and growth of the portfolio by the management team whilst benefiting from a proven track record, industry expertise and
familiarity with portfolio assets.
Commitments
Capital development commitments outstanding amount to R241.0 million (FY2016: R293.1 million). Capital commitments will be funded
from existing resources. As discussed herein L2D has committed R2.5 billion of reserves to the acquisition of additional assets from Liberty
with a transaction effective date of 1 July 2017.
Prospects
The performance of the L2D assets is underpinned by the quality of the portfolio. In spite of the tough economic environment and
the resultant impact on the consumer, the portfolio remains resilient. We are in the process of implementing the acquisition of a
further proportional share in the co-owned portfolio to the value of R2.5 billion following the exercise of the PUT option by Liberty.
The differential between interest earned (per the pre-listing statement forecasted at 8%) and the net yield earned on the real estate
assets acquired, which is calculated as 6.8% may reduce our 2017 distribution set out in the pre-listing statement by 2.5 cents per
unit. The net yield is calculated by dividing the expected net property income of these additional properties by the purchase price.
The remaining assumptions in the pre-listing statement remain valid. The additional stake in these high quality assets that are already
managed by SRFM, enhances the total return of the portfolio going forward. The forecast has not been reviewed or reported on by
L2D's independent external auditors. L2D uses distribution per unit as a relevant measure of financial performance.
Declaration of a cash distribution
The Manager has approved and notice is hereby given of a distribution of 30.00 cents per unit for the six months ended 30 June 2017
("the distribution").
The distribution is payable to L2D unitholders in accordance with the timetable set out below:
2017
Last date to trade cum dividend: Tuesday, 12 September
Units trade ex dividend: Wednesday, 13 September
Record date: Friday, 15 September
Payment date: Monday, 18 September
Unit certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Wednesday, 13 September 2017 and Friday, 15 September 2017,
both days inclusive.
Payment of the distribution will be made to unitholders on Monday, 18 September 2017. In respect of dematerialised units, the distribution
will be transferred to the CSDP accounts/broker accounts on Monday, 18 September 2017. Certificated unitholders' dividend payments will
be posted on or about Monday, 18 September 2017.
Units in issue at the date of declaration of this distribution: 908 443 335
Liberty Two Degrees' income tax reference number: 9087144235
In accordance with Liberty Two Degrees' status as a REIT, unitholders are advised that the distribution meets the requirements of a
"qualifying distribution" for the purposes of section 25BB of the Income Tax Act, No. 58 of 1962 ("Income Tax Act"). The distribution on the
units will be deemed to be a dividend, for South African tax purposes, in terms of section 25BB of the Income Tax Act.
The distribution received by or accrued to South African tax residents must be included in the gross income of such unitholders and will not
be exempt from income tax (in terms of the exclusion to the general dividend exemption, contained in paragraph (aa) of section 10(1)(k)(i)
of the Income Tax Act) because it is a distribution distributed by a REIT. This distribution is, however, exempt from dividend withholding tax
in the hands of South African tax resident unitholders, provided that the South African resident unitholders provide the following forms to
their Central Securities Depository Participant ("CSDP") or broker, as the case may be, in respect of uncertificated units, or the company, in
respect of certificated units:
a) a declaration that the distribution is exempt from dividends tax; and
b) a written undertaking to inform the CSDP, broker or the company, as the case may be, should the circumstances affecting the
exemption change or the beneficial owner cease to be the beneficial owner,
both in the form prescribed by the Commissioner for the South African Revenue Service. Unitholders are advised to contact their CSDP,
broker or the company, as the case may be, to arrange for the abovementioned documents to be submitted prior to payment of the
distribution, if such documents have not already been submitted.
Distributions received by non-resident unitholders will not be taxable as income and instead will be treated as an ordinary dividend which
is exempt from income tax in terms of the general dividend exemption in section 10(1)(k)(i) of the Income Tax Act. On 22 February 2017, the
dividends withholding tax rate was increased from 15% to 20% and accordingly, any dividend received by a non-resident from a REIT will be
subject to distributions withholding tax at 20%, unless the rate is reduced in terms of any applicable agreement for the avoidance of double
taxation ("DTA") between South Africa and the country of residence of the unitholder. Assuming dividend withholding tax will be withheld
at a rate of 20%, the net dividend amount due to non-resident unitholders is 24.00 cents per unit. A reduced dividend withholding rate in
terms of the applicable DTA may only be relied on if the non-resident unitholder has provided the following forms to their CSDP or broker,
as the case may be, in respect of uncertificated units, or the company, in respect of certificated units:
a) a declaration that the distribution is subject to a reduced rate as a result of the application of a DTA; and
b) a written undertaking to inform their CSDP, broker or the company, as the case may be, should the circumstances affecting the reduced
rate change or the beneficial owner cease to be the beneficial owner,
both in the form prescribed by the Commissioner for the South African Revenue Service. Non-resident unitholders are advised to contact
their CSDP, broker or the company, as the case may be, to arrange for the abovementioned documents to be submitted prior to payment
of the distribution if such documents have not already been submitted, if applicable.
Events after reporting date
In line with IAS 10 Events after the Reporting Period, the declaration of the distribution occurred after the end of the reporting period,
resulting in a non-adjusting event which is not recognised in these financial statements. In addition, post the interim reporting date, LGL has
exercised its put option to sell to L2D a further R2.5 billion worth of undivided shares in the properties that it co-owns with L2D. L2D has
elected to settle the consideration payable in cash.
Changes in directors of the Manager
The Scheme as a trust has no directors of its own. L2D is managed by the Manager in terms of CISCA and the Trust Deed.
The following changes in the board of the Manager took place during the period:
- Mr José Snyders was appointed as financial director replacing Mr John Sturgeon, effective 23 March 2017. Mr Sturgeon remains on the
board as a non-executive director;
- Mr Peter Moyo resigned on 3 April 2017 and Mr Michael Ilsley was appointed as the interim chairman, until such time a new chairman
is appointed; and
- Mr Angus Band was appointed as an independent non-executive director and chairman of the board, effective 26 July 2017. In addition
Ms Lynette Ntuli was appointed as an independent non-executive director of the board, also effective 26 July 2017.
Basis of preparation
The summarised unaudited interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard,
IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial
Pronouncements as issued by Financial Reporting Standards Council and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa and
the JSE Listings Requirements. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements are in terms of
International Financial Reporting Standards and are consistent with those applied in the previous financial statements. José Snyders
CA(SA), the Manager's financial director, was responsible for supervising the preparation of these summarised interim financial statements.
These summarised interim financial statements have not been reviewed or audited by L2D's independent external auditors.

3. Fair value hierarchy for financial instruments and investment property
IFRS 13 requires that an entity discloses for each class of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, the level in the fair value hierarchy
into which the fair value measurements are categorised in their entirety. The fair value hierarchy reflects the significance of the inputs
used in making fair value measurements.
The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices)
or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices);
Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

fair values are not required to be modelled.

Investment properties - basis of valuation
The investment properties were independently valued as at 30 June 2017 by professional valuers, namely Rode & Associates
Proprietary Limited, Mills Fitchet Magnus Penny & Wolffs t/a Magnus Penny Associates CC and Jones Lang LaSalle Proprietary Limited,
all of which are registered valuers in terms of the Property Valuers Professional Act, No 47 of 2000.
The valuation of the properties is prepared in accordance with the guidelines of the South African Institute of Valuers for valuation
reports and in accordance with the appraisal and valuation manual of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, adapted for
South African law and conditions.
The properties have been valued on a discounted cash flow basis. In the majority of cases, discounted cash flows have been used
to determine a present value net income to which the capitalisation rate is applied as at 30 June 2017. In order to determine the
reversionary rental income on lease expiry, renewal or review, a market gross rental income (basic rental plus operating cost rental) has
been applied to give a market-related rental value for each property as at 30 June 2017. Market rental growth has been determined
based on the individual property, property market trends and economic forecasts. Vacancies have been considered based on historic
and current vacancy factors as well as the nature, location, size and popularity of each building.
Appropriate discount rates have been applied to cash flows for each property to reflect the relative investment risk associated with the
particular building, tenant, covenant and the projected income flow. Extensive market research has been conducted to ascertain
the most appropriate market-related discount rate to apply, with regard to the current South African long-term bond yield (R204 risk
free rate) and the relative attractiveness that an investor may place on property as an asset class.
On the basis that turnover or profit rental income has a greater degree of uncertainty and risk than the contractual base rental, a risk
premium of between 1% and 6% has been added to the discount rate and to the market capitalisation rate, to reflect the greater
investment risk associated with the variable rental element on a property by property basis.

The fair value gains and losses are included in the fair value adjustments line in profit or loss.
Sensitivity analysis of level 3 assets
Investment property
Investment properties fair values were derived by determining sustainable net rental income, to which an appropriate capitalisation
rate is applied. Capitalisation rates are adjusted for occupancy levels, age of the building, location and expected future benefits of
recent alterations.
The capitalisation rates applied at 30 June 2017 range between 6.25% and 9.00% (FY2016: 6.25% - 9.00%).
Inter-relationship between key unobservable inputs and fair value measurements
The estimated fair value would increase/(decrease) if:
- capitalisation rate was lower/(higher)
- market rental growth was higher/(lower)
- expense growth was lower/(higher)
- vacancies were lower/(higher)
- occupancy rate was higher/(lower)
- rent-free periods were shorter/(longer)
- discount rate was lower/(higher)
- reversionary capitalisation rate was lower/(higher).
