Corpcapital Corporate Finance is authorised to announce that Redefine has made a
written offer to acquire, with effect from 1 April 2003 (the "effective date"),
the entire property portfolio ("the portfolio") of Bonatla and its subsidiaries
for a purchase consideration which the board of directors of Bonatla ("Bonatla
Board") may elect to take either in Redefine linked units or cash as further
detailed below.
If the Bonatla Board elects to receive the purchase consideration in Redefine

by the assumption of mortgage finance in place in respect of the portfolio as at
the effective date, in an amount not exceeding R 456 million; and
R108 million by the assumption of other liabilities as at the effective date in
an amount not exceeding R20 million and the remainder by issue of Redefine
linked units at the volume weighted average price of Redefine Linked units
during the 10 trading days prior to the effective date.
If the Bonatla Board elects to receive the purchase consideration in cash ("the
cash alternative"), the purchase consideration will amount to R 556 million as
follows:
by the assumption of mortgage finance in place in respect of the portfolio as at
the effective date, in an amount not exceeding R 456 million; and
by payment of R100 million in cash.
On the assumption of no more than 185 096 954 Bonatla shares being in issue and
in the absence of any further liabilities (including tax liabilities) of
Bonatla, the purchase consideration net of mortgage finance will equate to 58,35
cents per Bonatla share if the linked unit alternative is selected and 54,03
cents per Bonatla share if the cash alternative is selected. Bonatla`s closing

If the offer is accepted, the resultant acquisition may have a material effect
on the price of Redefine`s linked units. Redefine linked unitholders are
accordingly advised to exercise caution in dealing in their linked units until a
further announcement is made.
