Review of results                                                               
Trading conditions in the retail property market deteriorated further during the
period as a result of a weakening economy. It has become increasingly more      
difficult to increase rentals on renewals and new tenants are reluctant to take 
on new space.                                                                   
Rental income and net rental income increased by 7,1% and 2,8% respectively. The
operating cost ratio increased to 44,1% (2009: 41,8%) mainly due to the         
increased costs of repairs and maintenance during the year. Octodec paid an     
interim distribution of 65,10 cents per linked unit. The total distribution per 
linked unit for the year of 130,70 cents (2009: 128,90 cents) represents an     
increase of 1,4% on that paid in the previous corresponding period.             
The core portfolio, representing those properties held for 12 comparable months,
reflects rental income growth of 2%. Octodec`s retail portfolio comprises 43% of
the total property portfolio value and is dominated by smaller retail centres.  
As a result of challenging market conditions, no growth was achieved in rental  
income from the retail portfolio.                                               
During the year five properties were acquired and transferred. These include    
McCarthy in Midrand, McCarthy in Arcadia as well as Castle Mansions and Record  
House which are situated in the Johannesburg CBD. The total purchase price      
amounted to R114,3 million. A further three Johannesburg CBD properties were    
acquired but not yet transferred at year end, for a total amount of R53,3       
million.                                                                        
Various properties were upgraded during the year at a total cost of R37,5       
million. These included CCMA House in the Benoni CBD, Killarney Mall and Klamson
House.                                                                          
Vacancies at 31 August 2010 amounted to 17,2% of total lettable area.

A large percentage of the vacancies is in respect of properties recently        
acquired or undergoing redevelopment or refurbishment. The vacant retail space  
is largely attributable to smaller line shops. Industrial vacancies have        
decreased, however the rentals achieved have not recorded any growth.           
Arrears at 31 August 2010 amounted to R21,2 million (31 August 2009: R21,5      
million) against which a provision for doubtful debts of R6,5 million (31 August
2009: R4,6 million) has been raised.                                            
The performance of IPS was impacted by the anticipated phased take up of        
residential units at the mixed-use developments Kempton Place and Ricci`s Place.
Ricci`s Place was completed in November 2009 and phases I and II of the Kempton 
development were completed in October 2009 and October 2010 respectively. The   
residential component of Kempton Place is currently 54% let.                    
During the period, Octodec increased its holding in Premium Properties Limited  
to 16 987 658 million linked units (2009: 13 326 674 linked units) or 13,1%     
(2009: 10,2%).                                                                  
Borrowings                                                                      
During the period the borrowings increased by R190,2 million as a result of the 
purchase of properties and development and upgrade costs incurred. Octodec`s    
gearing at the end of the year under review was 34,1% of the total value of the 
portfolio as 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 59,7% of borrowings at 31 August 2010 have been    
fixed maturing at various dates ranging from November 2010 to October 2018.     
Octodec`s current all inclusive interest rate is 9,9%.                          
Revaluation of property portfolio                                               
The directors have valued the property portfolio by applying market related     
yields. At each financial year end at least one-third of the property portfolio 
is valued on a rotational basis by an external valuer. The directors` valuation 
of the portfolio increased by R82,8 million, which gives rise to a net asset    
value of 1 696 cents per unit, an increase of 8,9% on the prior comparative     
period.                                                                         
Prospects                                                                       
The current economic environment has influenced the demand for space, causing a 
slower take up of vacancies and slowing rental growth. Despite this, the board  
believes that distributable earnings for the next financial year should show    
positive growth.
