NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS                                               
The reviewed financial statements on which these results are based have been    
prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)  
and the requirements of the Companies Act (Act 61 of 1973). The results have    
been prepared and presented in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial        
Reporting. The accounting policies adopted and methods of computation are       
consistent with those applied in the financial statements for the year ended 31 
August 2006.                                                                    
In order to comply with International Accounting Standard IAS 17, rental income 
from leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
In order to avoid an overstatement of assets the fair value of investment       
properties has been reduced by the cumulative straight-line rental accrual.     
In compliance with IFRS, deferred taxation on the fair value adjustment of      
investment property has been provided at the company income taxation rate which 
is currently 29% and not at the Capital Gains Tax rate of 14.5%, which would be 
payable if properties were sold.                                                
Related party: City Property Administration (Proprietary) Limited is responsible
for the property and asset management of the group.                             
Contingent liability: as at 31 August 2007 there are no material contingent     
liabilities.                                                                    
The results have been reviewed by Deloitte & Touche, whose unmodified review

COMMENTS                                                                        
Review of results                                                               
The directors of Octodec are pleased to report that the company has once again  
produced strong growth in distributions to linked unitholders. The total return 
for the year taking capital growth and distributions into account was 59%.      
The total distribution per linked unit for the year of 106,2 cents (2006: 88,7  
cents) represents an increase of 19.7% on that paid in the previous year. Costs 
of new borrowings, which are higher than the initial yields on properties       
purchased, as well as the Sildale Park development which was not fully let      
during the period, had a negative effect on distribution growth. The dilutionary
effect of the issue of new units also reduced the growth. Rental income and net 
rental income increased by 25.1% and 25.8% respectively. Trading profit and     
other capital items include a trading profit amounting to R2,2 million and a    
capital profit on the disposal of investment properties of R0,6 million. The    
trading profit has been distributed to unitholders.                             
Favourable renewals of leases, strict expense control as well as favourable     
trading conditions have all contributed to the growth in distributable earnings.
Net rental income before taking properties acquired and developed into account, 
recorded an increase of 15%.                                                    
The retail portfolio which comprises five quality shopping centres, continued to
enjoy strong growth in earnings due to favourable renewals and contractual      
rental escalations. The growth in rental income amounts to 11%.                 
Acquisitions and developments                                                   
The Sildale Industrial Park development was completed during the year at a cost 
of R13,1 million. The letting of these light industrial units is progressing    
well and due to the strong demand the development of additional units is        
planned.                                                                        
Octodec continues to unlock the value of its Johannesburg and Pretoria CBD      
portfolios by the redevelopment and refurbishment thereof. Construction at      
Registry House to convert this office block to multi-use retail/light industrial
facilities was completed at the year end, at a cost of R9,9 million.            
The Tiny Town residential development, which is situated adjacent to the Union  
Building, is due to commence in March 2008. The total cost of the project is in 
excess of R100 million.                                                         
During the period under review six properties were purchased and transferred for
an aggregate of R96,7 million. These purchases include Elephant House, Inner    
Court and Anderson Place which are all situated in the Johannesburg CBD and two 
light industrial properties situated in Johannesburg. Rentmeester an office     
block situated in Pretoria was purchased but not yet transferred for a          
consideration of R48 million.                                                   
In line with the strategy to invest in Premium Properties Limited, Octodec      
acquired 549 975 linked units at an aggregate cost of R12,98 per linked unit.   
Issue of new units                                                              
During the period 10 952 903 units were issued at a price of                    
1851 cents which includes a notional distribution pre-payment of 25 cents. These
units were placed with selected institutions and investors. The proceeds of R199
million are to be utilised to fund redevelopment and expansion opportunities. In
the short term the proceeds will be utilised to reduce borrowings and will      
result in an interest saving at a rate of approximately 11.5%. An amount of R2,7
million was received as a prepaid distribution.                                 
Borrowings                                                                      
Following the receipt of the proceeds from the issue of linked units, the       
borrowings decreased to R524,2 million. Octodec`s gearing ratio at the end of   
the period under review was 24% as against 34% at 31 August 2006. The group has 
facilities in excess of R220 million available to fund future cash flow         
requirements.                                                                   
Interest rates in respect of 86% of borrowings at 31 August 2007 have been      
fixed. The weighted average interest rate at 31 August 2007 was 10.6% with fixed
borrowings maturing at various dates ranging from November 2007 to November     
2010.                                                                           
Revaluation of property portfolio                                               
The directors` valuation of the portfolio, taking into account prevailing market
rentals, occupation levels and capitalisation rates increased by R239 million,  
contributing to the increase in net asset value of 30.8%. At each financial year
end at least one-third of the property portfolio is valued on a rotational basis
by an external valuer.                                                          
The valuations have been assessed at audit committee and board level and are    
substantially the same as the values reported by the external valuers.          
Prospects                                                                       
With the South African economic outlook remaining positive for property,        
management is optimistic that the company will continue to grow earnings on par 
with, if not better than, the market average.
