Comments                                                                        
Review of results                                                               
The total distribution per linked unit for the six months of 65,10 cents        
(2009: 62,2 cents) represents an increase of 4,7% on that paid in the previous  
corresponding period.                                                           
Rental income and net rental income increased by 7,6% and 3,1% respectively.    
The growth in rental income was partially offset by an increase in property     
expenses, including assessment rates and bad debts.                             
The challenging retail conditions continued during the period resulting in a    
slow take up of vacant space and as a result exerted further downward pressure  
on rentals.                                                                     
The core portfolio, representing those properties held for the prior            
comparable six months, reflects rental income growth of 5%. Distributable       
income was positively impacted by the reduction in the prime lending rate       
during the period.                                                              
Property portfolio                                                              
Octodec continued to unlock the value of its Johannesburg and Pretoria CBD      
portfolios by the redevelopment and refurbishment thereof. Various properties   
were upgraded during the period at a total cost of R7,5 million. These          
included Killarney Mall, Waverley Plaza and Inner Court.                        
During the period under review three properties were purchased for an           
aggregate purchase price of R59 million. These purchases include two            
properties housing McCarthy motor dealerships together with a light industrial  
property in Eloff Street, Johannesburg.                                         
Income from IPS increased to R7,2 million due to the strong performance of the  
portfolio. IPS`s property portfolio is valued at an amount in excess of R1      
billion. IPS has a 50% interest in various joint ventures ("JV"). These         
include a JV with Bidvest Property which houses a motor dealership and a JV     
with Old Mutual which includes four residential properties. Octodec has an      
effective 20% interest in these JVs. The IPS group has a total of 2 732         
residential units of accommodation with a committed residential development     
pipeline to build in excess of a further 700 units. The majority of these       
units will be built at Kempton City in Kempton Park and Lara`s Place situated   
in the Johannesburg CBD. Due to the anticipated phased take up of these new     
units, a decrease in income from IPS is forecast for the next 12 months.        
Vacancies at 28 February 2010 amounted to 18,8% of total lettable area.

The vacant retail space is largely attributable to smaller line shops. A large  
percentage of the vacancies are in respect of properties acquired with large    
vacancies and where little or no consideration was paid for the vacant space.   
Octodec continues to pursue investment and redevelopment opportunities that     
will enhance the overall quality of the portfolio.                              
Borrowings                                                                      
During the period the borrowings increased by R91 million, as a result of the   
acquisition of properties, the purchase of 919 819 Premium shares and           
development costs incurred. Octodec`s gearing at the end of the period under    
review was 32,4% of the value of its portfolio against 31,1% at 31 August       
2009. The group remains financially sound with facilities available to fund     
future cash flow requirements.                                                  
Interest rates in respect of 53,8% of borrowings at 28 February 2010 have been  
fixed at an average interest rate of 11,7% maturing at various dates ranging    
from April 2010 to October 2018.                                                
Revaluation of property portfolio                                               
At each financial year end at least one third of the property portfolio is      
valued on a rotational basis by an external valuer, while at the interim stage  
directors` valuations are performed by applying market related yields. The      
directors` valuation of the portfolio increased by R59,8 million, which gives   
rise to a net asset value of 1 637 cents per unit.                              
Prospects                                                                       
Challenging market conditions have influenced the demand for space, causing a   
slower take up of vacancies and slowing of rental growth. The company does not  
expect trading conditions to improve significantly during the next six months.  
The board believes that distributable earnings for the second six month period  
will be on a par with the distributable earnings reported for the six months    
ended 28 February 2010.
