ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY PORTFOLIO FROM ZENPROP PROPERTY HOLDINGS LIMITED        
AND WITHDRAWAL OF CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT                                       
INTRODUCTION                                                                    
Redefine linked unitholders are referred to the announcements released          
between 4 May 2011 and 14 September 2011 in which, inter alia, Redefine         
linked unitholders were advised that a framework agreement had been             
entered into between Redefine and Zenprop Property Holdings Limited             
("Zenprop") for the acquisition of a number of investment properties from       
various entities within the Zenprop group ("framework agreement").              
The framework agreement has subsequently been amended to exclude certain        
properties that were subject to pre-emptive rights and to include               
additional properties, with the result that the transaction now comprises       
the acquisition (the "acquisitions")of fourteen high quality office and         
industrial properties for an aggregate purchase consideration of R  1 804       
226 626, payable in cash. Separate agreements governing the terms of each       
of the acquisitions have now been concluded.                                    
RATIONALE                                                                       
The acquisitions are in line with Redefine`s strategy to improve the            
quality of its core property portfolio through an investment focus on           
larger, well-located high-grade investment properties, which are mostly         
single tenanted.  The acquisitions together with the proposed unbundling        
of Arrowhead Properties Limited, the disposal of a portfolio to Dipula          
Income Fund Limited and the disposal of  a portfolio to Arrow Creek             
Investments 227 (Proprietary) Limited (all of which have been previously        
announced) mark significant progress towards the implementation of this         
strategy.

Under the acquisitions, Redefine will acquire the properties with effect,       
in each instance, from the date of registration of transfer of ownership        
of each individual property into the name of Redefine.                          
Each of the agreements governing the acquisitions contain warranties            
normal for acquisitions of that nature and each remains subject to the          
unconditional approval of the acquisition concerned by the Competition          
Tribunal by 28 February 2012.                                                   
Each of the agreements governing the acquisition of the Nicol Grove             
Precinct properties remains subject to various regulatory approvals. The        
long-stop date for transfer of each of the Nicol Grove Precinct                 
properties is 31 December 2012, which date may be extended to a date not        
later than 31 July 2013, after which date either party shall be entitled        
to cancel the agreement insofar as such agreement relates to any of the         
Nicol Grove Precinct properties.

The financial effects of the acquisitions on distribution per linked

WITHDRAWAL OF CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT                                           
As all the details of the acquisitions have now been published caution is       
no longer required to be exercised by Redefine linked unitholders when          
dealing in Redefine linked units.
