The interim report was prepared in accordance with the statements of South      
African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (`GAAP"). The same 
accounting policies and methods of computation were followed as adopted in the  
financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2002. AC133 has been       
applied for the first time in these results. The effect of applying this        
statement has been insignificant.                                               
As stated in the financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2002, the 
company purchased the remaining share capital of its associate company, DCF     
Helderberg (Pty) Ltd. The effective date of the transaction was 1 October 2002. 
DCF Helderberg (Pty) Ltd is now a 100% subsidiary, and is accounted for as such.

The distribution for the six months at 39,406 (2002 - 37,525) cents per unit is 
5% higher than the previous year, which is in line with the company"s consistent
record of increased earnings over the past nine years.                          
Building vacancies were 12,6% (2002 - 13,8%) of lettable area, or 9,7% (2002 -  
7,5%) of gross rental income. Vacancies increased due to certain large tenants  
not renewing their leases. It is anticipated that vacancies will reduce over the
next six months.
