REBOSIS PROPERTIES LIMITED
(formerly Business Venture Investments No. 1389 (Proprietary) Limited)
Registration number 2010/003468/06
JSE code: REB ISIN: ZAE 000156147
("Rebosis" or the "company")
PROPOSED ACQUISITIONS OF LETTING ENTERPRISES AND PROPERTIES
INTRODUCTION
Linked unitholders are advised that Rebosis has concluded agreements for
the acquisition of letting enterprises and properties ("the property
portfolio") from the following vendors:
- Square Peg Properties (Proprietary) Limited and Rymer Trading CC (the
Capital Towers acquisition");
- Ziningi Properties (Proprietary) Limited (the "Revenue Building
acquisition");
- Swish Property Four (Proprietary) Limited (the "First Avenue
acquisition");
- Dream World Investments 374 (Proprietary) Limited (the "Harrison Street
acquisition"); and
- Trifecta Prop 11 (Proprietary) Limited (the "SASSA Campus acquisition");
(each "a transaction" or "an acquisition" and together the
"transactions").
RATIONALE FOR THE TRANSACTIONS
The acquisitions are consistent with Rebosis` strategy of acquiring large
quality properties with a strong sovereign or blue chip underpin. The
property portfolio is dominated by national government with an element of
blue chip corporate with Standard Bank as a major tenant in one of the
buildings. These strategic acquisitions will improve the geographic spread
of the company`s government tenanted properties resulting in less
concentration in, and exposure to, Pretoria.
TERMS OF THE TRANSACTIONS AND CONDITIONS PRECEDENT
The total purchase consideration payable by Rebosis for the property
portfolio is R734 000 000. Payment of the purchase consideration for each
of the acquisitions will be secured by separate finance guarantees for 50%
of the purchase consideration payable per acquisition. The balance of the
purchase consideration will be settled through a vendor consideration
placement.
The transactions are, inter alia, subject to the following suspensive
conditions:
- providing each of the vendors separate finance guarantees for 50% of the
purchase consideration payable per property within 15 days of procuring the
approval of finance;
- completion of a due diligence in respect of each of the acquisitions;
- approval of each of the acquisitions by the board of Rebosis (the
"board");
- successful capital raising through the allotment and issue of the
consideration units for the remaining 50% of the purchase consideration;
and
- approval by the Competition Authorities to the extent required.
