DIRECTORS` COMMENTARY                                                           
1 DISTRIBUTABLE EARNINGS                                                        
The total distribution for the year ended 31 December 2009 is 54,58 cents per   
unit, representing an increase of 14,4% on the distributions for the previous   
financial year. The distribution of 28,86 cents for the final six months        
represents an increase of 14,1% on the distribution for the final six months of 
the previous financial year.                                                    
2 COMMENTARY ON RESULTS                                                         
This strong performance during a challenging year is the result of Capital`s    
focus on selling poorer quality properties at the top of the property cycle and 
acquiring properties located in prime nodes with corporate tenants. The emphasis
has also been on acquiring properties with sound property fundamentals. In a    
market with increased vacancies where tenants have a number of alternatives,    
these properties have performed well.                                           
General demand for industrial and commercial space has been subdued and,        
notwithstanding the quality of the properties, portfolio vacancies have         
increased from 2,7% in December 2008 to 4,4% in December 2009.                  
3 PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS

Spartan and a 25% interest in Montague Business Park from Resilient Property

the issue of 98 629 032 Capital units. All the properties were transferred by   
year end.

Capital`s conservative gearing at the top of the property cycle allowed the Fund
to take advantage of the discount that the listed property sector presented     
during the past 18 months. Capital acquired 43 169 000 units in Pangbourne      
Properties Limited during this period at an average cost of R13,85. The         
intention is to retain this holding as a long term strategic investment. Capital
has reduced its holding in New Europe Property Investments plc ("Nepi") from 6  
155 000 shares to 4 362 837 shares. This investment is no longer equity         
accounted and the intention remains to sell the holding over time.              
6 STRATEGY                                                                      
Capital`s focus is to invest in industrial and commercial properties. Retail    
properties constitute 10% (based on book value) of the portfolio and, should the
opportunity arise, the board will consider selling these properties.            
The Fund`s gearing is currently 21,2%. With the economy showing signs of        
recovery, the board will support an increase in gearing to up to 30% should     
attractive investment opportunities present themselves.                         
7 PROSPECTS                                                                     
The industrial and commercial property markets are expected to stabilise in 2010
and no further increases in valuation capitalisation rates for A-grade          
properties are expected. This should support further growth in asset values.    
Vacancies should stabilise around current levels and start reducing towards the 
end of the financial year.                                                      
Capital`s growth prospects for 2010 remain positive and the board anticipates   
growth in distributions of between 9% and 11% for the 2010 financial year. This 
forecast has not been reviewed or reported on by the Fund`s auditors.           
By order of the board

PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES                                             
The summarised consolidated financial statements have been prepared in          
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS),             
IAS 34, the JSE Listings Requirements, the requirements of the South African    
Companies Act and the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act (Act 45 of      
2002). The accounting policies are consistent with those applied for the year   
ended 31 December 2008 except for the adoption of the revised IAS1 and the      
application of Circular 3/2009 for the calculation of headline earnings (the    
impact of which is included in the headline earnings reconciliation).           
The Group previously disclosed profit and loss on disposal of investments and   
investment property separately from the fair value adjustments on these items.  
To better reflect the nature of these transactions the amounts are now combined 
into the fair value adjustment lines in the statement of comprehensive income.  
The independent auditors PKF (Jhb) Inc. have audited these results. Their       
unqualified report is available for inspection at the Fund`s registered office.
