1.   Commentary                                                                 
    The Board of Directors presents the Group`s audited results for the year    
ended 30 June 2008 which are presented in accordance with IAS 34:  Interim  
    Financial Reporting. The results have been prepared in accordance with      
    International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the JSE Listings        
    Requirements and the requirements of the South African Companies Act, 1973, 
as amended.                                                                 
    The accounting policies have been consistently applied to all the years     
    presented and to years prior to transition to IFRS, unless stated           
    otherwise.  The results have been audited by the company`s auditors SAB&T,  
whose unmodified audit report is available for inspection at the registered 
    office of the company.                                                      
2.   Financial and operational overview                                         
    The transfer of the original Gmeiner Group properties into Orion Real       
Estate has taken longer than anticipated and most of the properties were    
    only transferred in the second half of the financial year. Some of these    
    transfers were concluded after the end of the financial year.  Orion Real   
    Estate should therefore in the new financial year start to reap the         
benefits of the bigger portfolio.                                           
    The trading results of the group were negatively impacted by the increases  
    in interest rates, a number of once off costs such as transfer fees, legal  
    fees and commission that were the result of the transfer of the properties  
and the selling of the Elma Park Flats. The profit for the year went up     
    from R 20.86 million in 2007 to R 23.03 million in 2008. The value of the   
    portfolio has increased from R 188.6million to R 271.1 million.             
    Management has already started a process to focus in the new financial year 
on the improvement of efficiencies, the containment of cost, better         
    recoveries and competitive leases to improve the trading results in the     
    current financial year.                                                     
    Current trends in the global markets are not seen as a threat to the        
portfolio but rather as an opportunity to utilise the current negative      
    market sentiments to acquire quality properties at competitive prices       
    locally and abroad. The timing of such transactions would however be        
    critical.  It was also pleasing to see that the Orion share price remained  
relatively stable in very volatile and negative market conditions.          
3.   Dividends                                                                  
    No dividends were paid or declared during the financial period              
4.   Linked Units Issued                                                        
On the transfer of the Primrose Mall and Meyers Building, Primrose,         
    Germiston from the Gmeiner portfolio a total of 34 117 647 linked units     
    were due to be issued but only 2 592 000 linked units were issued.  The     
    balance of 31 525 647 still awaits JSE approval to be issued.               
5.   Change to Board of Directors                                               
    Professor A Boessenkool joined the Board as an independent, non-executive   
    director, on 11 September 2007 and Mr. C Nolte has been appointed as        
    financial director with effect from 29 September 2008.                      
6.   Prospects                                                                  
    The transfer of the Gmeiner properties during the second half of the        
    financial year has inhibited the impact of the bigger portfolio on the      
    overall results of the company. The income generating capacity of these     
properties, as well as the properties that were transferred just after the  
    year-end, should boost income substantially in the coming financial year.   
    The company should also start to benefit from the better economies of scale 
    to improve results.                                                         
Properties that were transferred just after year-end are Northcliff Atrium, 
    The Laser Park properties and the Wartburg Hotel. Properties that should be 
    registered in the near future are the Gordon`s Bay property and the ACA     
    Krans building.
