Hospitality Property Fund Limited

(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)

Results of the private placement, changes to certain information set out in the 
Prospectus and revised timetable                                                
Results of private placement                                                    
Applicants for the private placement of A linked units and B linked units       
(collectively "linked units") in Hospitality ("the private placement"), details 
of which were set out in the Hospitality Prospectus issued on 23 January 2006   
("the Prospectus"), are advised that the private placement was approximately 7.6
times oversubscribed. Hospitality has therefore been unable to allocate full    
subscriptions to participants in the private placement.                         
Applicants are further advised that due to changes in the ratio of cash and     
linked units to be issued as consideration for certain of the properties        
acquired (further details of which are set out in paragraph 3 below), the       
initial 23 725 930 A linked units and 27 531 247 B linked units that were       
available in terms of the private placement were reduced to 20 835 875 A linked 
units and 24 754 528 B linked units.                                            
In determining the final allocation of A and B linked units to applicants, the  
directors of Hospitality gave preference to allocations to black economic       
empowerment ownership entities. In this regard the National Empowerment Fund    
Trust (NEF), was allocated 2 523 165 A linked units and 1 261 583 B linked      
units. Successful subscriptions were capped by the directors at R303 008 595 per
applicant. This resulted in all successful applicants who subscribed for less   
than R303 008 595 being allocated approximately 13% of their respective         
subscription amounts.                                                           
All applicants will be notified by 17:00 on Friday, 3 February 2006, of the     
number of A linked units and B linked units allocated to them.                  
Changes in the ratio of cash and linked units to be issued as consideration for 
certain of the properties                                                       
As set out in Annexure 1 to the Prospectus, the total consideration of the      
properties to be acquired of R972 million was to be settled through the payment 
of cash of R816 million and the balance of R156 million was to be settled       
through the issue of linked units. Further to this, the vendors of the Courtyard
Portfolio have elected to receive the consideration of R56 million for these    
properties in linked units.                                                     
The total portfolio consideration of R972 million will now be settled through   
the payment of R760 million in cash and the balance of R212 million is to be    
settled through the issue of linked units. This has resulted in the initial 23  
725 930 A linked units and 27 531 247 B linked units that were available in     
terms of the private placement decreasing to 20 835 875 A linked units and 24   
754 528 B linked units.                                                         
In addition, the vendors of Birchwood Executive Hotel and Conference Centre and 
Kopanong Hotel and Conference Centre have elected to renounce their rights to   
the linked units to be issued to them as consideration for their respective     
properties. This resulted in a change in the major A linked unit holders and B  
linked unit holders, who will beneficially hold 5% or more of the issued A      
linked units and B linked units as shown in the table below.

The percentages have been calculated based on 36 174 723 A linked units and 36  
174 723 B linked units in issue.                                                
The results of the private placement have not been taken into account in the    
tables above.                                                                   
The above changes have had no effect on the capital structure and forecast      
yields as set out in the Prospectus.
