2. RATIONALE FOR THE ACQUISITIONS                                               
CBS" objective is to offer growth in income and capital over the medium to long 
term. In doing so CBS seeks acquisition opportunities which will enhance the    
quality of the CBS property portfolio as well as the long-term sustainable      
growth. CBS also seeks to maintain its exposure to a sectorally well-balanced,  
geographically diversified property portfolio. CBS" directors are of the opinion
that the acquisitions are in line with the above investment criteria. The       
estimated initial annual forward yield of the acquisitions is 10.38%, which     
enhances the yield of the CBS portfolio.                                        
3. ACQUISITION CONSIDERATION                                                    
CBS will acquire the acquisitions for a total purchase consideration of R122.540
million in cash. Detailed below is the purchase consideration for each of the   
individual properties acquired:

Notes                                                                           
1.The linked units in issue in respect of the 31 October 2006 forecast assumes  
that all the linked units relating to the properties acquired from Growthpoint  
Properties Limited and the acquisition of the Malvern Centre have been issued.  
2. Prior to the use of the cash raised from the private placing for the         
acquisitions, a portion of the cash was used to reduce the gearing of CBS and a 
portion of the cash was placed on call to fund the Malvern and Growthpoint      
acquistions. The pro forma adjustments reflect the additional return of 1.38%   
that the acquisitions yield over and above the reduction in interest expense of 
9% on third party debt for a period of 10 months, assuming that the Simonstown  
Broadwalk Centre is transferred by 1 January 2006, as well as the reduced       
deduction of interest on third party debt that was assumed in the forecast as   
per the SENS announcement on 1 November 2005, due to the greater than expected  
delay in the transfer of the properties acquired from Growthpoint Properties    
Limited and the  Malvern Centre. Detailed below is the reconciliation of the    
split between the acquisitions of the increase in profit available for          
distribution to debenture holders and the reduction of the reduced interest     
expense:
