The board of directors of Grit Real Estate Income Group Limited (“the Board”) is deeply saddened to

Peter Todd, Chairman of GRIT Real Estate Income Group Limited, said:
"It is with great sadness that we have learned of the passing of Ian Macleod, our senior independent
non-executive director. Ian was a great colleague and friend and it has been a huge privilege to know
and work with him. He was a wise, insightful and much valued member of our Board, playing a

extensive knowledge of African property and his passion for the industry. He will be sorely missed by
all of us and we extend our condolences to Ian’s wife and children."

tremendously missed."
