PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
Southway Mall in Durban and 2 Long Street in Cape Town were acquired with
effect from 1 January 2003. The purchase consideration was settled through the
issue of an additional 37 777 778 Capital units. The redevelopment of Southway
Mall, which is substantially pre-let, at a total capital cost of R14 million is
due for completion by year-end. Consideration is being given to the
refurbishment of 2 Long Street including the creation of additional parking.
Maybaker House was transferred on the 20 May 2003 for R1 500 000. In pursuance
of the strategy of selling under-performing properties, sale agreements are
being negotiated on another nine properties, with transfer of eight expected in
2003.
Vacancies are 10% as at 30 June 2003, compared with 14% as at 30 June 2002
and 11% as at 31 December 2002.
Various options to grow the portfolio significantly are being considered.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The results have been prepared in accordance with South African Statements of
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The accounting policies are consistent
with those applied for the year ended 30 June 2002 with the exception of the
provision for long-term maintenance, which is now treated as a reserve. The
results for the six months ended 30 June 2002 have been restated to comply with
South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
OUTLOOK
Earnings for the remainder of 2003 are likely to be similar to those of the
first half, thus showing a modest increase over 2002 for the year as a whole.

Notice is hereby given that a cash distribution of 14,75 cents per unit
(2002: 14,01) ("the distribution") has been declared, payable to unitholders
