The board has declared a dividend of 60.12 (FY20: 0.00) cents per share which will reduce the taxable
income of the company by the amount of the dividend.

Cautionary announcement
Redefine has submitted a non-binding proposal to the EPP board which, if approved by both the EPP
board and, to the extent necessary, by EPP and Redefine shareholders, will constitute EPP as an unlisted
subsidiary of Redefine. In terms of the proposal, and conditional on EPP shareholders approving of a
delisting of EPP shares on both the JSE and LuxSE, Redefine will make an offer to EPP shareholders that
will afford EPP shareholders an ability to swap their EPP shares for Redefine shares at an independently
verified fair swap ratio. The proposed transaction would be conditional on, inter alia, EPP implementing
certain restructuring transactions (including the disposal of non-prime property portfolios to joint
venture companies to be owned by EPP and third party investors) that will significantly bolster EPP's
balance sheet, generate much needed liquidity and materially reduce EPP's LTV.
The proposal is under consideration by an Independent Committee constituted by the EPP board and
further update announcements will be made by both Redefine and EPP in due course. Pending such
further announcements shareholders are advised to exercise caution in dealing in Redefine shares.
