NOTES TO EDITORS

About Sirius Real Estate

Sirius is a property company listed on the main market and premium segment of the London Stock
Exchange and the main board of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. It is a leading operator of branded
business parks providing conventional space and flexible workspace in Germany. The Company's core
strategy is the acquisition of business parks at attractive yields, the integration of these business parks
into its network of sites under the Company's own name as well as offering a range of branded
products within those sites, and the reconfiguration and upgrade of existing and vacant space to
appeal to the local market, through intensive asset management and investment. The Company's
strategy aims to deliver attractive returns for shareholders by increasing rental income and improving
cost recoveries and capital values, as well as by enhancing those returns through financing its assets
on favourable terms. Once sites are mature and net income and values have been optimised, the
Company may take the opportunity to refinance the sites to release capital for investment in new sites
or consider the disposal of sites in order to recycle equity into assets which present greater
opportunity for the asset management skills of the Company's team.
