ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING THE ACQUISITION OF AON HOUSE, ILLOVO BOULEVARD           
1.   Introduction                                                               
     Linked unitholders are advised that Acucap entered into an agreement       
     dated 10 April 2006 ("the agreement") with Cobernet Properties             
     (Proprietary) Limited ("the acquisition") to acquire the property known    
as Aon House, Illovo Boulevard ("the property"). The acquisition was       
     categorised as less than Category 3 in terms of the JSE Limited Listings   
     Requirements ("the Listings Requirements") and details of the              
     acquisition were included in Acucap"s audited results for the year ended   
31 March 2006, published on 19 May 2006, and in the annual report which    
     was posted on 30 June 2006.                                                
     An addendum to the agreement was entered into on 14 August 2006 in terms   
     of which the full purchase consideration of R92 900 000 was no longer to   
be settled in cash but through the issue of 4 046 000 Acucap linked        
     units at R21.75 per linked unit and the balance of R4 899 500 to be        
     settled in cash. The revised terms of the settlement of the purchase       
     price has resulted in the acquisition being categorised as a Category 3    
transaction in terms of the Listings Requirements and the requisite        
     information for a Category 3 acquisition is set out in this                
     announcement.

transferred on 17 August 2006.

     November 2011.
