ANNOUNCEMENT RELATING TO THE ACQUISITION OF A PROPERTY BY PLG PROPERTIES PROPRIETARY LIMITED
(“PLG PROPERTIES”) AND RENEWAL OF CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT


1.   Background
     Shareholders are advised that PLG Properties, a wholly owned subsidiary of PL Group (“Buyer”), has
     entered into an agreement with Finch Haven Retirement Proprietary Limited (currently a Close
     Corporation) (“Seller”) to acquire a property in Fairland, for a total purchase consideration of
     R16 000 000 (“the Acquisition” or “the Property”). The Seller is not a related party to PL Group and
     PL Group is not a property entity as defined in the JSE Listings Requirements. The property is
     currently leased by PLG Retirement Villages Proprietary Limited (“PLG Retirement Villages”), a
     wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

     Shareholders are reminded that, as announced on 16 May 2017, PL Group acquired the business of
     Pembury Retirement Lodges through PLG Retirement Villages, with effect from 1 July 2017. The
     Property is one of the original Pembury Retirement Lodges and has been leased from the Seller for
     a number of years.

2.   Terms of the Acquisition
     The purchase consideration of R16 000 000 is payable to the Seller by way of a loan from the Seller,
     which will be interest bearing and payable in cash within 7 years of the date of transfer of the
     Property into the name of the Buyer. The loan will be secured through the registration of a first
     mortgage bond in favour of the Seller or, in the event that a mortgage bond is granted by another
     bank or financial institution (“Financial Institution”), a second covering bond will be granted for any
     remaining portion of the purchase consideration.

3.   Description of the Property
     The Property houses a retirement village and is located conveniently in Fairland on Erf Number 518
     in the extent of approximately 2 974 square meters. The retirement village is a smaller, intimate and
     secure lodge of 34 mid care or assisted living suites and limited retirement cottages.

     The mid care or assisted living suites are offered on a rental basis and are suitable for residents
     requiring nursing or caregiving assistance.
4.   Property Specific Information
     Property specific information is detailed below:

5.   Effective date
     The effective date of the Acquisition will be the date of the registration of the Property into the
     name of PLG Properties.

6.   Rationale for the Acquisition
     The rationale for the Acquisition is based on PL Group’s wider strategy to, where practical and
     reasonable, own and be in control of the properties from which its subsidiaries operate, be it its
     schools or retirement villages.

7.   Conditions precedent
     The Acquisition is subject to:
     7.1 the approval thereof by the Board of directors of PL Group; and
     7.2 the conversion of the Seller from a Close Corporation to a private company.

8.   Classification of the transaction
     The Acquisition is classified as a Category 2 transaction in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements,
     and accordingly, shareholder approval is not required.

9.   Financial Information
     The directors have calculated an estimated value of the Property at approximately R16 million,
     being the purchase consideration. The Property will be independently valued in due course.
     Rental received by the Seller in relation to the Property is R90 000 per month, excluding VAT, and is
     paid by PLG Retirement Villages, a wholly owned subsidiary of PL Group.

     Pursuant to the Acquisition, the rental paid by PLG Retirement Villages to PLG Properties will be
     eliminated on consolidation in the group results. No third-party income will be received on the
     Property.

     The loan from the Seller, as referred in paragraph 2 above, will bear interest at the lower of 10% or a
     10% discount to the rate charged by a Financial Institution, which interest will be payable monthly
     in arrears. Any capital repayments are at the discretion of the Buyer during the 7-year period, in
     multiples of R100 000.

10.   Renewal of Cautionary Announcement
      Shareholders are referred to the cautionary announcement dated 22 January 2018 and are
      advised that negotiations relating to potential acquisitions of additional retirement assets are still
      on-going. Accordingly, shareholders are advised to continue to exercise caution when dealing in
      the Company’s securities.
